0f04ab5efb [PATCH] memory hotadd fixes: change find_next_system_ram's return value manner
find_next_system_ram() returns valid memory range which meets requested area,
only used by memory-hot-add.

This function always rewrite requested resource even if returned area is not
fully fit in requested one.  And sometimes the returnd resource is larger than
requested area.  This annoyes the caller.  This patch changes the returned
value to fit in requested area.

6f712711db [PATCH] memory hotadd fixes: not-aligned memory hotadd handling fix
ioresouce handling code in memory hotplug allows not-aligned memory hot add.
But when memmap and other memory structures are initialized, parameters should
be aligned.  (if not aligned, initialization of mem_map will do wrong, it
assumes parameters are aligned.) This patch fix it.

And this patch allows ioresource collision check to handle -EEXIST.

94f563c426 [PATCH] Fix BeFS slab corruption
In bugzilla #6941, Jens Kilian reported:

"The function befs_utf2nls (in fs/befs/linuxvfs.c) writes a 0 byte past the
end of a block of memory allocated via kmalloc(), leading to memory
corruption.  This happens only for filenames which are pure ASCII and a
multiple of 4 bytes in length.  [...]

Without DEBUG_SLAB, this leads to further corruption and hard lockups; I
believe this is the bug which has made kernels later than 2.6.8 unusable
for me.  (This must be due to changes in memory management, the bug has
been in the BeFS driver since the time it was introduced (AFAICT).)

Steps to reproduce:
Create a directory (in BeOS, naturally :-) with files named, e.g.,
"1", "22", "333", "4444", ...  Mount it in Linux and do an "ls" or "find""

This patch implements the suggested fix. Credits to Jens Kilian for
debugging the problem and finding the right fix.

e31f59ce59 [PATCH] ieee1394: sbp2: enable auto spin-up for Maxtor disks
At least Maxtor OneTouch III require a "start stop unit" command after auto

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=183011

Maybe that should be done for all SBP-2 disks, but better be cautious.

While helping someone to submit a patch to the stable branch, I noticed

This patch adds the stable branch to the maintainers file so that people

64e0cc38b6 [PATCH] pSeries: hvsi char driver janitorial cleanup
A set of tty line discipline cleanup patches were introduced before the
dawn of time, in kernel version 2.4.21.  This patch performs that cleanup
for the hvsi driver.

The hvsi driver is used only on IBM pSeries PowerPC boxes.  The driver was
originally written by Hollis Blanchard, who has delegated maintainership to
me.  So this my first and maybe only patch in this official new role,
because this driver is otherwise bug-free :-)

Alan: "Actually its also a bug fix, tty->ldisc should be locked by refcounting
and the helpers do this for you."

2f34931fdc [PATCH] knfsd: fix race related problem when adding items to and svcrpc auth cache
If we don't find the item we are lookng for, we allocate a new one, and
then grab the lock again and search to see if it has been added while we
did the alloc.  If it had been added we need to 'cache_put' the newly
created item that we are never going to use.  But as it hasn't been
initialised properly, putting it can cause an oops.

So move the ->init call earlier to that it will always be fully initilised
if we have to put it.

60c371bc75 [PATCH] fadvise() make POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE a no-op
The POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE hint means "the application will use this range of the
file a single time".  It seems to be intended that the implementation will use
this hint to perform drop-behind of that part of the file when the application
gets around to reading or writing it.

However for reasons which aren't obvious (or sane?) I mapped
POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE onto POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED.  ie: it does readahead.

That's daft.  So for now, make POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE a no-op.

This is a non-back-compatible change.  If someone was using POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE
to perform readahead, they lose.  The likelihood is low.

If/when we later implement POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE things will get interesting - to
do it fully we'll need to maintain file offset/length ranges and peform all
sorts of complex tricks, and managing the lifetime of those ranges' data
structures will be interesting..

A sensible implementation would probably ignore the file range and would
simply mark the entire file as needing some form of drop-behind treatment.

(2.6.18rc1)

This can occur when release_console_sem() is called but the log
buffer still has contents that need to be flushed. The console drivers
are called while the console_may_schedule flag is still true. The
might_sleep() is triggered when fbcon calls console_conditional_schedule().

Fix by setting console_may_schedule to zero earlier, before the call to the
console drivers.

`ufs_get_locked_page' takes page from cache
after that `vmtruncate' takes page and deletes it from cache
`ufs_get_locked_page' locks page, and reports about EIO error.

Also because of find_lock_page always return valid page or NULL, we have no

		/* use r2 as parameter for spin_lock */

So the code becomes more or less:
if (q->lock_ptr != 0) spin_lock(q->lock_ptr)
instead of
if (lock_ptr != 0) spin_lock(lock_ptr)

Which caused the oops from above.
After adding a barrier gcc creates code without this problem:
[...] (the same)
     3ee:       e3 c0 b0 28 00 04       lg      %r12,40(%r11)
     3f4:       b9 02 00 cc             ltgr    %r12,%r12
     3f8:       b9 04 00 2c             lgr     %r2,%r12
     3fc:       a7 84 00 48             je      48c <unqueue_me+0xc4>
     400:       c0 e5 00 00 00 00       brasl   %r14,400 <unqueue_me+0x38>
                        402: R_390_PC32DBL      _spin_lock+0x2

As a general note, this code of unqueue_me seems a bit fishy. The retry logic
of unqueue_me only works if we can guarantee, that the original value of
q->lock_ptr is always a spinlock (Otherwise we overwrite kernel memory). We
know that q->lock_ptr can change. I dont know what happens with the original
spinlock, as I am not an expert with the futex code.

72f0b4e213 [PATCH] disable debugging version of write_lock()
We've confirmed that the debug version of write_lock() can get stuck for long
enough to cause NMI watchdog timeouts and hence a crash.

We don't know why, yet.   Disable it for now.

Also disable the similar read_lock() code.  Just in case.

Thanks to Dave Olson <olson@unixfolk.com> for reporting and testing.

a7ef7878ea [PATCH] Make suspend possible with a traced process at a breakpoint
It should be possible to suspend, either to RAM or to disk, if there's a
traced process that has just reached a breakpoint.  However, this is a
special case, because its parent process might have been frozen already and
then we are unable to deliver the "freeze" signal to the traced process.
If this happens, it's better to cancel the freezing of the traced process.

558e10a57d [LAPB]: Fix windowsize check
In bug #6954, Norbert Reinartz reported the following issue:

"Function lapb_setparms() in file net/lapb/lapb_iface.c checks if the given
parameters are valid. If the given window size is in the range of 8 .. 127,
lapb_setparms() fails and returns an error value of LAPB_INVALUE, even if bit
LAPB_EXTENDED in parms->mode is set.
If bit LAPB_EXTENDED in parms->mode is set and the window size is in the range
of 8 .. 127, the first check "(parms->mode & LAPB_EXTENDED)" results true  and
the second check "(parms->window < 1 || parms->window > 127)" results false.
Both checks in conjunction result to false, thus the third check "(parms->window
< 1 || parms->window > 7)" is done by fault.
This third check results true, so that we leave lapb_setparms() by 'goto out_put'.
Seems that this bug doesn't cause any problems, because lapb_setparms() isn't
used to change the default values of LAPB. We are using kernel lapb in our
software project and also change the default parameters of lapb, so we found
this bug"

He also pasted a fix, that I've transformated into a patch:

c4c0ce5c57 [PKT_SCHED] RED: Fix overflow in calculation of queue average
Overflow can occur very easily with 32 bits, e.g., with 1 second
us_idle is approx. 2^20, which leaves only 11-Wlog bits for queue
length. Since the EWMA exponent is typically around 9, queue
lengths larger than 2^2 cause overflow. Whether the affected
branch is taken when us_idle is as high as 1 second, depends on
Scell_log, but with rather reasonable configuration Scell_log is
large enough to cause p->Stab to have zero index, which always
results zero shift (typically also few other small indices result
in zero shift).

30a584d944 [LLX]: SOCK_DGRAM interface fixes
The datagram interface of LLC is broken in a couple of ways.
These were discovered when trying to use it to build an out-of-kernel
version of STP.

First it didn't pass the source address of the received packet
in recvfrom(). It needs to copy the source address of received LLC packets
into the socket control block. At the same time fix a security issue
because there was uninitialized data leakage. Every recvfrom call
was just copying out old data.

Second, LLC should not merge multiple packets in one receive call
on datagram sockets. LLC should preserve packet boundaries on
SOCK_DGRAM.

This fix goes against the old historical comments about UNIX98 semantics
but without this fix SOCK_DGRAM is broken and useless. So either ANK's
interpretation was incorect or UNIX98 standard was wrong.

The uncached allocator has a function, uncached_get_new_chunk(), that needs
to be serialized on a per node basis. It also has a global variable,
allocated_granules, which should be defined on a per node basis and protected
by that serialization. Additionally, all error returns from functions called
(like ia64_pal_mc_drain()) should be handled appropriately.
