I found a bug in cls_cgroup_change() in cls_cgroup.c. cls_cgroup_change() expected tca[TCA_OPTIONS] was set from user space properly, but tc in iproute2-2.6.29-1 (which I used) didn't set it. In the current source code of tc in git, it set tca[TCA_OPTIONS]. git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shemminger/iproute2.git If we always use a newest iproute2 in git when we use cls_cgroup, we don't face this oops probably. But I think, kernel shouldn't panic regardless of use program's behaviour. Signed-off-by: Minoru Usui <usui@mxm.nes.nec.co.jp> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Michael Tokarev reported receiving a large packet could crash a machine with RTL8169 NIC. ( original thread at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/8/192 ) Problem is this driver tells that NIC frames up to 16383 bytes can be received but provides skb to rx ring allocated with smaller sizes (1536 bytes in case standard 1500 bytes MTU is used) When a frame larger than what was allocated by driver is received, dma transfert can occurs past the end of buffer and corrupt kernel memory. Fix is to tell to NIC what is the maximum size a frame can be. This bug is very old, (before git introduction, linux-2.6.10), and should be backported to stable versions.

Now that we support changing the chunksize, we calculate "reshape_sectors" to be the max of number of sectors in old and new chunk size. However there is one please where we still use 'chunksize' rather than 'reshape_sectors'. This causes a reshape that reduces the size of chunks to freeze. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

md has functionality to 'quiesce' and array so that all pending IO completed and no new IO starts. This is used to achieve a stable state before making internal changes. Currently this quiescing applies equally to normal IO, resync IO, and reshape IO. However there is a problem with applying it to reshape IO. Reshape can have multiple 'stripe_heads' that must be active together. If the quiesce come between allocating the first and the last of such a collection, then we deadlock, as the last will not be allocated until the quiesce is lifted, the quiesce will not be lifted until the first (which has been allocated) gets used, and that first cannot be used until the last is allocated. It is not necessary to inhibit reshape IO when a quiesce is requested. Those places in the code that require a full quiesce will ensure the reshape thread is not running at all. So allow reshape requests to get access to new stripe_heads without being blocked by a 'quiesce'. This only affects in-place reshapes (i.e. where the array does not grow or shrink) and these are only newly supported. So this patch is not needed in earlier kernels.

mddev->raid_disks can be changed and any time by a request from user-space. It is a suggestion as to what number of raid_disks is desired. conf->raid_disks can only be changed by the raid5 module with suitable locks in place. It is a statement as to the current number of raid_disks. There are two places where the latter should be used, but the former is used. This can lead to a crash when reshaping an array. This patch changes to mddev-> to conf-> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

Our async work synchronization was broken by "async: make sure independent async domains can't accidentally entangle" (commit d5a877e8), because it would report the wrong lowest active async ID when there was both running and pending async work. This caused things like no being able to read the root filesystem, resulting in missing console devices and inability to run 'init', causing a boot-time panic. This fixes it by properly returning the lowest pending async ID: if there is any running async work, that will have a lower ID than any pending work, and we should _not_ look at the pending work list. There were alternative patches from Jaswinder and James, but this one also cleans up the code by removing the pointless 'ret' variable and the unnecesary testing for an empty list around 'for_each_entry()' (if the list is empty, the for_each_entry() thing just won't execute).

Outlining fixes the issue were on certain CPUs such as the R10000 family the delay loop would need an extra cycle if it overlaps a cacheline boundary. The rewrite also fixes build errors with GCC 4.4 which was changed in way incompatible with the kernel's inline assembly. Relying on pure C for computation of the delay value removes the need for explicit. The price we pay is a slight slowdown of the computation - to be fixed on another day.

pdc202xx_reset() calls pdc202xx_reset_host() twice, for both channels, while that function actually twiddles the single, shared software reset bit -- the net effect is a duplicated reset and horrendous 4 second delay happening not only on a channel reset but also when dma_lost_irq() and dma_clear() methods are called. Fold pdc202xx_reset_host() into pdc202xx_reset(), fix printk(), and move it before the actual reset...

Commit ac95beed (ide: add struct ide_port_ops (take 2)) erroneously converted the driver's dma_timeout() and dma_lost_irq() methods to call the driver's resetproc() method regardless of whether it was defined for this specific controller while it hadn't been defined and hence called for PDC20246. So the dma_clear() method, the successor of dma_timeout(), shouldn't exist and the dma_lost_irq() method should be standard for PDC20246.

OK, that's probably the easiest way to do that, as much as I don't like it... Since iget() et.al. will not accept I_FREEING (will wait to go away and restart), and since we'd better have serialization between new/free on fs data structures anyway, we can afford simply skipping I_FREEING et.al. in insert_inode_locked(). We do that from new_inode, so it won't race with free_inode in any interesting ways and it won't race with iget (of any origin; nfsd or in case of fs corruption a lookup) since both still will wait for I_LOCK.

The nobh_truncate_page() function is used by ext2, exofs, and jfs. Of these three, only ext2 and jfs's get_block() function pays attention to bh->b_size --- which is normally always the filesystem blocksize except when the get_block() function is called by either mpage_readpage(), mpage_readpages(), or the direct I/O routines in fs/direct_io.c. Unfortunately, nobh_truncate_page() does not initialize map_bh before calling the filesystem-supplied get_block() function. So ext2 and jfs will try to calculate the number of blocks to map by taking stack garbage and shifting it left by inode->i_blkbits. This should be *mostly* harmless (except the filesystem will do some unnneeded work) unless the stack garbage is less than filesystem's blocksize, in which case maxblocks will be zero, and the attempt to find out whether or not the filesystem has a hole at a given logical block will fail, and the page cache entry might not get zero'ed out. Also if the stack garbage in in map_bh->state happens to have the BH_Mapped bit set, there could be an attempt to call readpage() on a non-existent page, which could cause nobh_truncate_page() to return an error when it should not. Fix this by initializing map_bh->state and map_bh->size. Fortunately, it's probably fairly unlikely that ext2 and jfs users mount with nobh these days.

The basic problem here that pata_legacy attaches the host, sees if it found any devices and detaches it if none were found. With async probing, it's not waiting until discovery is finished before deciding it has no devices and trying the detach leading to this warning: ata1: PATA max PIO4 cmd 0x1f0 ctl 0x3f6 irq 14 ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at drivers/ata/libata-core.c:6222 ata_host_detach+0x75/0x90() Modules linked in: Pid: 1, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.30-rc7 #1 Call Trace: [<c01fbb05>] ? ata_host_detach+0x75/0x90 [<c01fbb05>] ? ata_host_detach+0x75/0x90 [<c01139b5>] ? warn_slowpath_common+0x45/0x80 [<c01139fa>] ? warn_slowpath_null+0xa/0x10 [<c01fbb05>] ? ata_host_detach+0x75/0x90 [<c02f40e0>] ? legacy_init+0x44e/0x87f [<c02f3c92>] ? legacy_init+0x0/0x87f [<c0101021>] ? _stext+0x21/0x140 [<c01890ff>] ? proc_register+0x2f/0x190 [<c018938c>] ? create_proc_entry+0x5c/0xc0 [<c0135ebe>] ? register_irq_proc+0x6e/0x90 [<c02e6484>] ? kernel_init+0x6e/0xbf [<c02e6416>] ? kernel_init+0x0/0xbf [<c01031d7>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10 ---[ end trace ef1ee36e873ae3a0 ]--- Because it detaches before the probe is complete.
