There is a race condition that showed up in a threaded JIT environment. The situation is that a process with a JIT code page forks, so the page is marked read-only, then some threads are created in the child. One of the threads attempts to add a new code block to the JIT page, so a copy-on-write fault is taken, and the kernel allocates a new page, copies the data, installs the new pte, and then calls lazy_mmu_prot_update() to flush caches to make sure that the icache and dcache are in sync. Unfortunately, the other thread runs right after the new pte is installed, but before the caches have been flushed. It tries to execute some old JIT code that was already in this page, but it sees some garbage in the i-cache from the previous users of the new physical page. Fix: we must make the caches consistent before installing the pte. This is an ia64 only fix because lazy_mmu_prot_update() is a no-op on all other architectures.

__vunmap must not rely on area->nr_pages when picking the release methode for area->pages. It may be too small when __vmalloc_area_node failed early due to lacking memory. Instead, use a flag in vmstruct to differentiate. Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@web.de> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

ib_fmr_pool_map_phys gets the virtual address by pointer but never writes there, and users (e.g. srp) seem to assume this and ignore the value returned. This patch cleans up the API to get the VA by value, and updates all users. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

After recent changes, mthca_wq_init does not actually initialize the WQ as it used to - it simply resets all index fields to their initial values. So, let's rename it to mthca_wq_reset.

2.6.16 leaks like hell. While testing, I found massive leakage (reproduced in openvz) in: *filp *size-4096 And 1 object leaks in *size-32 *size-64 *size-128 It is the fix for the first one. filp leaks in the bowels of namei.c. Seems, size-4096 is file table leaking in expand_fdtables. I have no idea what are the rest and why they show only accompanying another leaks. Some debugging structs?

We have a bad interaction with both the kernel and user space being able to change some of the /proc file status. This fixes the most obvious part of it, but I expect we'll also make it harder for users to modify even their "own" files in /proc. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
