madvise(MADV_REMOVE) can go into an infinite loop or cause an oops if the call covers a region from the start of a vma, and extending past that vma. Signed-off-by:

During modification of code to support UFS2 writing, the case with "three indirect" blocks in truncate path was missed, this patch fixes this situation. Signed-off-by:

This patch fix behaviour in such test scenario: lseek(fd, BIG_OFFSET) write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf)) truncate(BIG_OFFSET) truncate(BIG_OFFSET + sizeof(buf)) read(fd, buf...) Because of if file big enough(BIG_OFFSET) we start allocate space by block, ordinary block size > page size, so we should zeroize the rest of block in truncate(except last framgnet, about which VFS should care), to not get garbage, when we extend file. Also patch corrects conversion from pointer to block to physical block number, this helps in case of not common used UFS types. And add to debug output inode number. Signed-off-by:

This fixes "change blocks numbers on the fly" in case when "prepare write page" is in the call chain, in this case some buffers may be not uptodate and not mapped, we should care to map them and load from disk. This patch was tested with: - ufs regressions simple tests - fsx-linux - ltp(20060306) - untar and build kernel Signed-off-by:

This patch corrects work with time in UFS2 case. 1) According to UFS2 disk layout modification/access and so on "time" should be hold in two variables one 64bit for seconds and another 32bit for nanoseconds, at now for some unknown reason we suppose that "inode time" holds in three variables 32bit for seconds, 32bit for milliseconds and 32bit for nanoseconds. 2) We set amount of nanoseconds in "VFS inode" to 0 during read, instead of getting values from "on disk inode"(this should close http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7991).

This removes several pointless exports from drivers/dma/dmaengine.c; the dma_async_memcpy_*() functions are inlined by <linux/dmaengine.h> so those exports are inappropriate. It also moves the existing EXPORT_SYMBOL declarations next to their functions, so it's now trivial to confirm one-to-one correspondence between exports and nonstatic symbols. Signed-off-by:

When iterating through an array, one must be careful to test one's index variable rather than another similarly-named variable. The loop will read off the end of conf->disks[] in the following (pathological) case: % dd bs=1 seek=840716287 if=/dev/zero of=d1 count=1 % for i in 2 3 4; do dd if=/dev/zero of=d$i bs=1k count=$(($i+150)); done % ./vmlinux ubd0=root ubd1=d1 ubd2=d2 ubd3=d3 ubd4=d4 # mdadm -C /dev/md0 --level=linear --raid-devices=4 /dev/ubd[1234] adding some printks, I saw this: [42949374.960000] hash_spacing = 821120 [42949374.960000] cnt = 4 [42949374.960000] min_spacing = 801 [42949374.960000] j=0 size=820928 sz=820928 [42949374.960000] i=0 sz=820928 hash_spacing=820928 [42949374.960000] j=1 size=64 sz=64 [42949374.960000] j=2 size=64 sz=128 [42949374.960000] j=3 size=64 sz=192 [42949374.960000] j=4 size=1515870810 sz=1515871002 Cc: Gautham R Shenoy <ego@in.ibm.com> Acked-by:

Make some normal code paths in PNP stop issuing syslog spam. Since PNP issues calls regardless of device capablities, it's no surprise when some of those devices don't support those calls! Signed-off-by:

This patch (as869) reinstates the mutual exclusion between sysfs attribute method calls and attribute unregistration. The previously-reported deadlocks have been fixed, and this exclusion is by far the simplest way to avoid races during driver unbinding. The check for orphaned read-buffers has been moved down slightly, so that the remainder of a partially-read buffer will still be available to userspace even after the attribute has been unregistered.

This patch (as868) adds a helper routine for device drivers that need to set up a callback to perform some action in a different process's context. This is intended for use by attribute methods that want to unregister themselves or their parent device. Attribute method calls are mutually exclusive with unregistration, so such actions cannot be taken directly. Two attribute methods are converted to use the new helper routine: one for SCSI device deletion and one for System/390 ccwgroup devices. Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes the poll routine for the natsemi driver so that if the driver detects an RX state machine lockup then no interrupts will be lost while the driver recovers from that. Signed-Off-By:

The interrupt status register for the natsemi chips is clear on read and was read unconditionally from both the interrupt and from the NAPI poll routine, meaning that if the interrupt service routine was called (for example, due to a shared interrupt) while a NAPI poll was scheduled interrupts could be missed. This patch fixes that by ensuring that the interrupt status register is only read by the interrupt handler when interrupts are enabled from the chip. It also reverts a workaround for this problem from the netpoll hook and improves the trace for interrupt events. Thanks to Sergei Shtylyov <sshtylyov@ru.mvista.com> for spotting the issue, Mark Huth <mhuth@mvista.com> for a simpler method and Simon Blake <simon@citylink.co.nz> for testing resources.

The natsemi drivers include functions for enabling and disabling interrupts from the chip but these are not used in all code paths. This patch changes the code paths that touch the interrupt enable register to use the functions. In all cases this adds an extra PCI read to post the operation but since none of these are in fast paths this shouldn't be too much of a problem. Signed-Off-By:

When bonding does fail over it calls set_mac_address. When this happens as the result of another port going down, the phy_mutex that is common to both ports is held, so it deadlocks. Setting the address doesn't need to do anything that needs the phy_mutex, it already has the RTNL to protect against other admin actions. This change just disables the receiver to avoid any hardware confusion while address is changing. Signed-off-by:
