This is analogous to the similar check in dget(), and will make reference-counting bugs in filesystems more immediately obvious.

"[PATCH] Fix leak on /proc/lockdep_stats" fixed 5 leaks which happen if one uses single_open() as .open function and seq_release() as .release function. Let's add small amount of runtime checking.

and one was sighted a couple of years ago. No reason yet to suppose they're prio_tree bugs, but we can't tell much about them without seeing the vmas. So dump vma and the one it's supposed to resemble: I had expected to use print_hex_dump(), but that's designed for u8 dumps, whereas almost every field of vm_area_struct is either a pointer or an unsigned long - which look nonsense dumped as u8s. Replace the two BUG_ONs by a single WARN_ON; and if it fires, just keep this vma out of the tree (truncation and swapout won't be able to find it). How safe this is depends on what the error really is; but we hold a file's i_mmap_lock here, so it may be impossible to recover from BUG_ON.

potentially a quite valid value, so not restoring it would be wrong. What *would* be interesting is to hear where the bad values came from in the first place. It sounds like the device state is saved after the PCI bus controller in front of the device has been crapped on, resulting in the PCI config cycles never reaching the device at all. Something along this patch (together with suspend/resume debugging output) migth help pinpoint it. But it really sounds like something totally brokenly turned off the PCI bridge (some ACPI shutdown crud? I wouldn't be entirely surprised) Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>

that would have been easier to debug if the PFN of page addresses were available. The dmesg output is often insufficient to find that information so debugging patches need to be sent to the reporting user. This patch prints out information on the memmap when it is being allocated and the sizeof(struct page) when loglevel is set high enough. In most architectures, this output is produced in generic code. x86_64 and ia64 both setup node_mem_map in an architecture-specific manner requiring arch-specfic changes. Th memmap information can be used to translate any valid page address into a PFN. page_to_pfn() cannot be used directly in bad_page() because there is no guarantee that the address pointer is valid in any way and the translation can produce garbage. Information on memmap is not printed out for the SPARSEMEM memory model. This only applies to FLATMEM and DISCONTIG configurations.

made sense when request_resource was the main method of dividing up the memory map. With the increased use of insert_resource, it seems to me that we should instead reparent the newly orphaned resources. Before we do that, let's make sure that nobody's actually relying on the current semantics.

Q&A wrt this patch: - A really short guide to how to get up and running with this filesystem. Reiser4 is a file system based on dancing tree algorithms, and is described at http://www.namesys.com. One should be able to get it up and running just like any of the other filesystems supported by Linux. Configure it to be compiled either builtin or as a module. Create reiser4 filesystem with mkfs.reiser4, mount and use it. More detailed info can be found at http://thebsh.namesys.com/snapshots/LATEST/READ.ME. - The direct URL which people use to obtain the mkfs tool for this filesystem. Also fsck and anything else. Reiser4 userland tools can be obtained at ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiser4progs. ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiser4progs/README contains detailed instructions on how to compile and install these tools. Also all reiser4 progs have man pages. - Any known shortcomings, caveats, etc. Reiser4 has been tested on i386 yet only. Quota support is not ready yet. Should be ready soon. Reiser4 was tested extensively, and we got to where the mailing list was not able to hit any bugs, but then we told people that, got an order of magnitude increase in users, and they are able to hit bugs that we are working on now. Reiser's Law of Software Engineering: Each order of magnitude increase in users finds more bugs, in a quantity equal to the previous order of magnitude increase in users. Success for software developers is measured by how long the frustration lasts. Only the very core functionality is working. Exotic plugins, an API for multiple operation transactions and accessing multiple small files in one syscall, compression, inheritance, all have been postponed until after the core functionality is shipped. The compression plugin needs a code review before anyone should use it. - A statement on compatibility with reiserfs3 filesytems. To upgrade from reiserfs V3 to V4, use tar, or sponsor us to write a convertfs. - Bear in mind that people will immediately benchmark this filesytem, and first impressions count. Now is your chance to communicate any tuning guidelines, mount options or whatever which you'd like people to understand BEFORE they start publishing benchmark info. Reiser4 is not tuned for fsync/sync/O_SYNC performance yet. If you see results that are much different from those at www.namesys.com/benchmarks.html, let us know. If you see performance characteristics that don't quite make sense, email reiserfs-list@namesys.com, such things are always of interest. reiser4 is not tuned for mmaping and dirtying more than physical ram like IOzone does. This is quite different in its code path from writing and dirtying more than physical ram. There are those who think that what IOZone does is rarely done by real programs, and therefor we should not bother to optimize what it does. All I know is, this month we are not optimized for it. Please consider its space savings when you benchmark it also.

generic implementaion and changes fs-writeback.c:sync_sb_inodes() to call filesystem's sync_inodes if it is defined or generic implementaion otherwise. This new operation allows filesystem to decide itself what to flush. Reiser4 flushes dirty pages on basic of atoms, not of inodes. sync_sb_inodes used to call address space flushing method (writepages) for every dirty inode. For reiser4 it caused having to commit atoms unnecessarily often. This turned into substantial slowdown. Having this method helped to fix that problem.

"captured" by some atom. However, outside reiser4 context dirty page can not be captured in some cases, as it is accompanied with specific work (jnode creation, etc). Reiser4 recognizes such "anonymous" pages (i.e. pages that were dirtied outside of reiser4) by the tag PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY. Pages dirtied inside reiser4 context are not tagged at all: we don't need this. Indeed, once page is dirtied and captured, it is attached to a jnode (a special header to keep a track of transactions). reiser4_set_page_dirty_internal() was the internal reiser4 function that set dirty bit without tagging the page. Having such internal function led to real problems (incorrect task io accounting, etc. because of not updating this internal "friend"). Solution: The following patch adds a core library function that sets a dirty bit without tagging the page.

gzip at compression, but faster at extraction. Here are some figures for an ARM board I'm working on: Uncompressed size: 3.24Mo gzip 1.61Mo 0.72s lzo 1.75Mo 0.48s So for a compression ratio that is still relatively close to gzip, it's much faster to extract, at least in that case. This version applies to kernel 2.6.31-rc3 This part contains: - Makefile routine to support lzo compression - Fixes to the existing lzo compressor so that it can be used in compressed kernels - wrapper around the existing lzo1x_decompress, as it only extracts one block at a time, while we need to extract a whole file here - config dialog for kernel compression Signed-off-by: Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Russell King <rmk@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: "H.
