2009-03-19aio: lookup_ioctx can return the wrong value when looking up a bogus contextJeff Moyer
The libaio test harness turned up a problem whereby lookup_ioctx on a bogus io context was returning the 1 valid io context from the list (harness/cases/3.p). Because of that, an extra put_iocontext was done, and when the process exited, it hit a BUG_ON in the put_iocontext macro called from exit_aio (since we expect a users count of 1 and instead get 0). The problem was introduced by "aio: make the lookup_ioctx() lockless" (commit abf137dd7712132ee56d5b3143c2ff61a72a5faa). Thanks to Zach for pointing out that hlist_for_each_entry_rcu will not return with a NULL tpos at the end of the loop, even if the entry was not found.

2009-03-19eventfd: remove fput() call from possible IRQ contextDavide Libenzi
Remove a source of fput() call from inside IRQ context. Myself, like Eric, wasn't able to reproduce an fput() call from IRQ context, but Jeff said he was able to, with the attached test program. Independently from this, the bug is conceptually there, so we might be better off fixing it. This patch adds an optimization similar to the one we already do on ->ki_filp, on ->ki_eventfd. Playing with ->f_count directly is not pretty in general, but the alternative here would be to add a brand new delayed fput() infrastructure, that I'm not sure is worth it.

2009-03-19Fix race in create_empty_buffers() vs __set_page_dirty_buffers()Linus Torvalds
Nick Piggin noticed this (very unlikely) race between setting a page dirty and creating the buffers for it - we need to hold the mapping private_lock until we've set the page dirty bit in order to make sure that create_empty_buffers() might not build up a set of buffers without the dirty bits set when the page is dirty. I doubt anybody has ever hit this race (and it didn't solve the issue Nick was looking at), but as Nick says: "Still, it does appear to solve a real race, which we should close."

2009-03-19Add '-fwrapv' to gcc CFLAGSLinus Torvalds
This makes sure that gcc doesn't try to optimize away wrapping arithmetic, which the kernel occasionally uses for overflow testing, ie things like if (ptr + offset < ptr) which technically is undefined for non-unsigned types. See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12597 for details. Not all versions of gcc support it, so we need to make it conditional (it looks like it was introduced in gcc-3.4).

2009-03-18sparc64: Fix crash with /proc/iomemMikulas Patocka
When you compile kernel on Sparc64 with heap memory checking and type "cat /proc/iomem", you get a crash, because pointers in struct resource are uninitialized. Most code fills struct resource with zeros, so I assume that it is responsibility of the caller of request_resource to initialized it, not the responsibility of request_resource functuion. After 2.6.29 is out, there could be a check for uninitialized fields added to request_resource to avoid crashes like this. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-03-18smsc911x: reset last known duplex and carrier on openSteve Glendinning
smsc911x_phy_adjust_link is called periodically by the phy layer (as it's run in polling mode), and it only updates the hardware when it sees a change in duplex or carrier. This patch clears the last known values every time the interface is brought up, instead of only when the module is loaded. Without this patch the adjust_link function never updates the hardware after an ifconfig down; ifconfig up. On a full duplex link this causes the tx error counter to increment, even though packets are correctly transmitted, as the default MAC_CR register setting is for half duplex. The tx errors are "no carrier" errors, which should be ignored in full-duplex mode. When MAC_CR is set to "full duplex" mode they are correctly ignored by the hardware. Note that even with this patch the tx error counter can increment if packets are transmitted between "ifconfig up" and the first phy poll interval. An improved solution would use the phy interrupt with phylib, but I haven't managed to make this work 100% robustly yet.

2009-03-18tulip: fix crash on iface up with shirq debugKyle McMartin
Tulip is currently doing request_irq before it has done its initialization. This is usually not a problem because it hasn't enable interrupts yet, but with DEBUG_SHIRQ on, we call the irq handler when registering the interrupt as a sanity check. This can result in a NULL ptr dereference, so call tulip_init_ring before request_irq, and add a free_ring function to do the freeing now shared with tulip_close. Tested with a shell loop running ifup, ifdown in a loop a few hundred times with DEBUG_SHIRQ on. Signed-off-by: Kyle McMartin <kyle@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-03-18virtio_net: Make virtio_net support carrier detectionPantelis Koukousoulas
Impact: Make NetworkManager work with virtio_net For now the semantics are simple: There is always carrier. This allows a seamless experience with e.g., qemu/kvm where NetworkManager just configures and sets up everything automagically. If/when a generally agreed-upon way to control carrier on/off in the emulator/hypervisor level emerges, it will be trivial to extend the driver to support that too, but for now even this 2-liner makes user experience that much better.

2009-03-18bnx2: Fix problem of using wrong IRQ handler.Michael Chan
The MSI-X handler was chosen before the call to pci_enable_msix(). If MSI-X was not available, the wrong MSI-X handler would be used in INTA mode. This would cause a screaming interrupt problem because INTA would not be cleared by the MSI-X handler. Fixed by assigning MSI-X handler after pci_enable_msix() returns successfully.

2009-03-18[S390] make page table upgrade work againMartin Schwidefsky
After TASK_SIZE now gives the current size of the address space the upgrade of a 64 bit process from 3 to 4 levels of page table needs to use the arch_mmap_check hook to catch large mmap lengths.

2009-03-18[S390] make page table walking more robustMartin Schwidefsky
Make page table walking on s390 more robust. The current code requires that the pgd/pud/pmd/pte loop is only done for address ranges that are below the end address of the last vma of the address space. But this is not always true, e.g. the generic page table walker does not guarantee this. Change TASK_SIZE/TASK_SIZE_OF to reflect the current size of the address space. This makes the generic page table walker happy but it breaks the upgrade of a 3 level page table to a 4 level page table. To make the upgrade work again another fix is required.
