Dmitry Torokhov b4bc842802 module: deal with alignment issues in built-in module versions
On m68k natural alignment is 2-byte boundary but we are trying to
align structures in __modver section on sizeof(void *) boundary.
This causes trouble when we try to access elements in this section
in array-like fashion when create "version" attributes for built-in
modules.

Moreover, as DaveM said, we can't reliably put structures into
independent objects, put them into a special section, and then expect
array access over them (via the section boundaries) after linking the
objects together to just "work" due to variable alignment choices in
different situations. The only solution that seems to work reliably
is to make an array of plain pointers to the objects in question and
put those pointers in the special section.

Grant Likely b1608d69cb drivercore: revert addition of of_match to struct device
Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct
device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the
of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time.  This was unsafe
because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver.  If
two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the
same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get
overwritten.

This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to
call of_match_device() directly instead.

Milton Miller 01294d8262 of: fix race when matching drivers
If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write
their match table result to the dev->of_match cache at the same time.

Only write the result if the device matches.

In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not",
Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time.
From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched
some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery
failling.

Li Zefan e1e8fb6a1f fs: remove FS_COW_FL
FS_COW_FL and FS_NOCOW_FL were newly introduced to control per file
COW in btrfs, but FS_NOCOW_FL is sufficient.

The fact is we don't have corresponding BTRFS_INODE_COW flag.

COW is default, and FS_NOCOW_FL can be used to switch off COW for
a single file.

If we mount btrfs with nodatacow, a newly created file will be set with
the FS_NOCOW_FL flag. So to turn on COW for it, we can just clear the
FS_NOCOW_FL flag.

Get rid of _current_user_ns.  This requires nsown_capable() to be

so do that.

Request_key needs init_user_ns defined at current_user_ns if

at current_user_ns() define.

  fbmem: make read/write/ioctl use the frame buffer at open time

2011-05-12 10:42:36 -07:00
Linus Torvalds 698b368275 fbcon: add lifetime refcount to opened frame buffers
This just adds the refcount and the new registration lock logic.  It
does not (for example) actually change the read/write/ioctl routines to
actually use the frame buffer that was opened: those function still end
up alway susing whatever the current frame buffer is at the time of the
call.

Without this, if something holds the frame buffer open over a
framebuffer switch, the close() operation after the switch will access a
fb_info that has been free'd by the unregistering of the old frame
buffer.

(The read/write/ioctl operations will normally not cause problems,
because they will - illogically - pick up the new fbcon instead.  But a
switch that happens just as one of those is going on might see problems
too, the window is just much smaller: one individual op rather than the
whole open-close sequence.)

This use-after-free is apparently fairly easily triggered by the Ubuntu
11.04 boot sequence.

Mikulas Patocka a09a79f668 Don't lock guardpage if the stack is growing up
Linux kernel excludes guard page when performing mlock on a VMA with
down-growing stack. However, some architectures have up-growing stack
and locking the guard page should be excluded in this case too.

This patch fixes lvm2 on PA-RISC (and possibly other architectures with
up-growing stack). lvm2 calculates number of used pages when locking and
when unlocking and reports an internal error if the numbers mismatch.

[ Patch changed fairly extensively to also fix /proc/<pid>/maps for the
  grows-up case, and to move things around a bit to clean it all up and
  share the infrstructure with the /proc bits.

  Tested on ia64 that has both grow-up and grow-down segments  - Linus ]

This partially reverts commit e6e1e25935.

That commit changed the structure layout of the trace structure, which
in turn broke PowerTOP (1.9x generation) quite badly.

I appreciate not wanting to expose the variable in question, and
PowerTOP was not using it, so I've replaced the variable with just a
padding field - that way if in the future a new field is needed it can
just use this padding field.

Thomas Gleixner 30106b8ce2 slub: Fix the lockless code on 32-bit platforms with no 64-bit cmpxchg
The SLUB allocator use of the cmpxchg_double logic was wrong: it
actually needs the irq-safe one.

That happens automatically when we use the native unlocked 'cmpxchg8b'
instruction, but when compiling the kernel for older x86 CPUs that do
not support that instruction, we fall back to the generic emulation
code.

And if you don't specify that you want the irq-safe version, the generic
code ends up just open-coding the cmpxchg8b equivalent without any
protection against interrupts or preemption.  Which definitely doesn't
work for SLUB.

This was reported by Werner Landgraf <w.landgraf@ru.ru>, who saw
instability with his distro-kernel that was compiled to support pretty
much everything under the sun.  Most big Linux distributions tend to
compile for PPro and later, and would never have noticed this problem.

This also fixes the prototypes for the irqsafe cmpxchg_double functions
to use 'bool' like they should.

[ Btw, that whole "generic code defaults to no protection" design just
  sounds stupid - if the code needs no protection, there is no reason to
  use "cmpxchg_double" to begin with.  So we should probably just remove
  the unprotected version entirely as pointless.   - Linus ]

memory) but other THP logics weren't fully activated for vmas with vm_file
not NULL (/dev/zero has a not NULL vma->vm_file).

So this removes the vm_file checks so that /dev/zero also can safely use
THP (the other albeit safer approach to fix this bug would have been to
prevent the THP initial page fault to run if vm_file was set).

After removing the vm_file checks, this also makes huge_memory.c stricter
in khugepaged for the DEBUG_VM=y case.  It doesn't replace the vm_file
check with a is_pfn_mapping check (but it keeps checking for VM_PFNMAP
under VM_BUG_ON) because for a is_cow_mapping() mapping VM_PFNMAP should
only be allowed to exist before the first page fault, and in turn when
vma->anon_vma is null (so preventing khugepaged registration).  So I tend
to think the previous comment saying if vm_file was set, VM_PFNMAP might
have been set and we could still be registered in khugepaged (despite
anon_vma was not NULL to be registered in khugepaged) was too paranoid.
The is_linear_pfn_mapping check is also I think superfluous (as described
by comment) but under DEBUG_VM it is safe to stay.

Trond Myklebust 28331a46d8 NFSv4: Ensure we request the ordinary fileid when doing readdirplus
When readdir() returns a directory entry for the root of a mounted
filesystem, Linux follows the old convention of returning the inode
number of the covered directory (despite newer versions of POSIX declaring
that this is a bug).
To ensure this continues to work, the NFSv4 readdir implementation requests
the 'mounted-on-fileid' from the server.

However, readdirplus also needs to instantiate an inode for this entry, and
for that, we also need to request the real fileid as per this patch.

Now that the whole dcache_hash_bucket crap is gone, go all the way and
also remove the weird locking layering violations for locking the hash
buckets.  Add hlist_bl_lock/unlock helpers to move the locking into the
list abstraction instead of requiring each caller to open code it.
After all allowing for the bit locks is the whole point of these helpers
over the plain hlist variant.

Frederic Weisbecker bf26c01849 ptrace: Prepare to fix racy accesses on task breakpoints
When a task is traced and is in a stopped state, the tracer
may execute a ptrace request to examine the tracee state and
get its task struct. Right after, the tracee can be killed
and thus its breakpoints released.
This can happen concurrently when the tracer is in the middle
of reading or modifying these breakpoints, leading to dereferencing
a freed pointer.

Hence, to prepare the fix, create a generic breakpoint reference
holding API. When a reference on the breakpoints of a task is
held, the breakpoints won't be released until the last reference
is dropped. After that, no more ptrace request on the task's
breakpoints can be serviced for the tracer.

Linus Torvalds dea3667bc3 vfs: get rid of insane dentry hashing rules
The dentry hashing rules have been really quite complicated for a long
while, in odd ways.  That made functions like __d_drop() very fragile
and non-obvious.

In particular, whether a dentry was hashed or not was indicated with an
explicit DCACHE_UNHASHED bit.  That's despite the fact that the hash
abstraction that the dentries use actually have a 'is this entry hashed
or not' model (which is a simple test of the 'pprev' pointer).

The reason that was done is because we used the normal 'is this entry
unhashed' model to mark whether the dentry had _ever_ been hashed in the
dentry hash tables, and that logic goes back many years (commit
b3423415fbc2: "dcache: avoid RCU for never-hashed dentries").

That, in turn, meant that __d_drop had totally different unhashing logic
for the dentry hash table case and for the anonymous dcache case,
because in order to use the "is this dentry hashed" logic as a flag for
whether it had ever been on the RCU hash table, we had to unhash such a
dentry differently so that we'd never think that it wasn't 'unhashed'
and wouldn't be free'd correctly.

That's just insane.  It made the logic really hard to follow, when there
were two different kinds of "unhashed" states, and one of them (the one
that used "list_bl_unhashed()") really had nothing at all to do with
being unhashed per se, but with a very subtle lifetime rule instead.

So turn all of it around, and make it logical.

Instead of having a DENTRY_UNHASHED bit in d_flags to indicate whether
the dentry is on the hash chains or not, use the hash chain unhashed
logic for that.  Suddenly "d_unhashed()" just uses "list_bl_unhashed()",
and everything makes sense.

And for the lifetime rule, just use an explicit DENTRY_RCUACCEES bit.
If we ever insert the dentry into the dentry hash table so that it is
visible to RCU lookup, we mark it DENTRY_RCUACCESS to show that it now
needs the RCU lifetime rules.  Now suddently that test at dentry free
time makes sense too.

And because unhashing now is sane and doesn't depend on where the dentry
got unhashed from (because the dentry hash chain details doesn't have
some subtle side effects), we can re-unify the __d_drop() logic and use
common code for the unhashing.

Also fix one more open-coded hash chain bit_spin_lock() that I missed in
the previous chain locking cleanup commit.

Right now all RCU walks fall back to reference walk when CONFIG_SECURITY
is enabled, even though just the standard capability module is active.
This is because security_inode_exec_permission unconditionally fails
RCU walks.

Move this decision to the low level security module. This requires
passing the RCU flags down the security hook. This way at least
the capability module and a few easy cases in selinux/smack work

We are currently using this flag to check whether it's safe

But we get a lot of false positives and excessive punts to
kblockd, which hurts performance.

The only real abuser of this infrastructure is SCSI. So export
the async queue run and convert SCSI over to use that. There's
room for improvement in that SCSI need not always use the async
call, but this fixes our performance issue and they can fix that
