It is a fairly common operation to have a pointer to a work and to need a pointer to the delayed work it is contained in. In particular, all delayed works which want to rearm themselves will have to do that. So it would seem fair to offer a helper function for this operation.

The missing device table means that the floppy module is not auto-loaded, even when the appropriate PNP device (0700) is found. We don't actually use the table in the module, since the device doesn't have a struct pnp_driver, but it's sufficient to cause an alias in the module that udev/modprobe will use.

Lee Schermerhorn authored
A new "address_space flag"--AS_MM_ALL_LOCKS--was defined to use the next available AS flag while the Unevictable LRU was under development. The Unevictable LRU was using the same flag and "no one" noticed. Current mainline, since 2.6.28, has same value for two symbolic flag names. So, define a unique flag value for AS_UNEVICTABLE--up close to the other flags, [at the cost of an additional #ifdef] so we'll notice next time. Note that #ifdef is not actually required, if we don't mind having the unused flag value defined. Replace #defines with an enum.

The calculation of the value nr in do_xip_mapping_read is incorrect. If the copy required more than one iteration in the do while loop the copies variable will be non-zero. The maximum length that may be passed to the call to copy_to_user(buf+copied, xip_mem+offset, nr) is len-copied but the check only compares against (nr > len). This bug is the cause for the heap corruption Carsten has been chasing for so long: *** glibc detected *** /bin/bash: free(): invalid next size (normal): 0x00000000800e39f0 *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib64/libc.so.6[0x200000b9b44] /lib64/libc.so.6(cfree+0x8e)[0x200000bdade] /bin/bash(free_buffered_stream+0x32)[0x80050e4e] /bin/bash(close_buffered_stream+0x1c)[0x80050ea4] /bin/bash(unset_bash_input+0x2a)[0x8001c366] /bin/bash(make_child+0x1d4)[0x8004115c] /bin/bash[0x8002fc3c] /bin/bash(execute_command_internal+0x656)[0x8003048e] /bin/bash(execute_command+0x5e)[0x80031e1e] /bin/bash(execute_command_internal+0x79a)[0x800305d2] /bin/bash(execute_command+0x5e)[0x80031e1e] /bin/bash(reader_loop+0x270)[0x8001efe0] /bin/bash(main+0x1328)[0x8001e960] /lib64/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0x100)[0x200000592a8] /bin/bash(clearerr+0x5e)[0x8001c092] With this bug fix the commit 0e4a9b59 "ext2/xip: refuse to change xip flag during remount with busy inodes" can be removed again.

Jeff Layton authored
The dirtied_when value on an inode is supposed to represent the first time that an inode has one of its pages dirtied. This value is in units of jiffies. It's used in several places in the writeback code to determine when to write out an inode. The problem is that these checks assume that dirtied_when is updated periodically. If an inode is continuously being used for I/O it can be persistently marked as dirty and will continue to age. Once the time compared to is greater than or equal to half the maximum of the jiffies type, the logic of the time_*() macros inverts and the opposite of what is needed is returned. On 32-bit architectures that's just under 25 days (assuming HZ == 1000). As the least-recently dirtied inode, it'll end up being the first one that pdflush will try to write out. sync_sb_inodes does this check: /* Was this inode dirtied after sync_sb_inodes was called? */ if (time_after(inode->dirtied_when, start)) break; ...but now dirtied_when appears to be in the future. sync_sb_inodes bails out without attempting to write any dirty inodes. When this occurs, pdflush will stop writing out inodes for this superblock. Nothing can unwedge it until jiffies moves out of the problematic window. This patch fixes this problem by changing the checks against dirtied_when to also check whether it appears to be in the future. If it does, then we consider the value to be far in the past. This should shrink the problematic window of time to such a small period (30s) as not to matter.

clear_inode() will switch inode state from I_FREEING to I_CLEAR, and do so _outside_ of inode_lock. So any I_FREEING testing is incomplete without a coupled testing of I_CLEAR. So add I_CLEAR tests to drop_pagecache_sb(), generic_sync_sb_inodes() and add_dquot_ref(). Masayoshi MIZUMA discovered the bug in drop_pagecache_sb() and Jan Kara reminds fixing the other two cases. Masayoshi MIZUMA has a nice panic flow: ===================================================================== [process A] | [process B] | | | prune_icache() | drop_pagecache() | spin_lock(&inode_lock) | drop_pagecache_sb() | inode->i_state |= I_FREEING; | | | spin_unlock(&inode_lock) | V | | | spin_lock(&inode_lock) | V | | | dispose_list() | | | list_del() | | | clear_inode() | | | inode->i_state = I_CLEAR | | | | | V | | | if (inode->i_state & (I_FREEING|I_WILL_FREE)) | | | continue; <==== NOT MATCH | | | | | | (DANGER from here on!

Fix a number of issues with the per-MM VMA patch: (1) Make mmap_pages_allocated an atomic_long_t, just in case this is used on a NOMMU system with more than 2G pages. Makes no difference on a 32-bit system. (2) Report vma->vm_pgoff * PAGE_SIZE as a 64-bit value, not a 32-bit value, lest it overflow. (3) Move the allocation of the vm_area_struct slab back for fork.c. (4) Use KMEM_CACHE() for both vm_area_struct and vm_region slabs. (5) Use BUG_ON() rather than if () BUG(). (6) Make the default validate_nommu_regions() a static inline rather than a #define. (7) Make free_page_series()'s objection to pages with a refcount != 1 more informative. (8) Adjust the __put_nommu_region() banner comment to indicate that the semaphore must be held for writing. (9) Limit the number of warnings about munmaps of non-mmapped regions.

The current logic for dmi matching in efifb does not allow efifb to load on all hardware that we can dmi match for. For a real world example, boot with elilo (3.7 or 3.8 vanilla) and on a Apple (MacBook) and EFI framebuffer driver will not load (you will have no video). This specific hardware is efi v1.10, so we have UGA and not GOP. Without special bootloader magic (i.e. extra elilo patches for UGA graphics detection) no screen info will be passed to the kernel and as a result efifb will not load. This patch allows the dmi match to happen by moving it to earlier in efifb_init, and sets the video type (in set_system) so that efifb can load when we have a valid dmi match and already know the specifics of the hardware. Without this patch the efifb driver will fail to load in the event screen info is not found and passed in by the bootloader, being that we will never get to look for a dmi match. A primary reason for matching with dmi is because not all bootloaders detect the video info properly. The solution is that in the event of a dmi match, we should set screen_info.orig_video_isVGA. Most bootloaders fail to set screen info on Apple hardware, and this is a big problem for people who use Apple hardware. Tested on a MacBook SantaRosa with elilo-3.8 (vanilla) and resolves the issue, the dmi match now works, EFI framebuffer now loads and video works.

Remove Kconfig option for tridentfb acceleration. The acceleration can be switched off with modules "noaccel" parameter. The acceleration for Trident chips was fixed in the 2.6.27 kernel. Also, add CyberXXX and CyberBlade names to Kconfig option's name. It should make easier to find the tridentfb choice for cyblafb driver's users. The cyblafb driver has been replaced by the tridentfb driver.

A hardware cursor is left enabled in the fb_set_par() which is called when a new console is created. This is inconsistent with software cursor's behaviour. Also, this makes a hardware cursor always visible in the Xfbdev (Xorg kdrive) server.
