Because it was nonwritable, we don't have to worry about losing concurrent dirty page bit updates. ptep_update_access_flags() leaves the same page mapping, but updates the accessed/dirty/writable bits (it only ever sets them, and never removes any permissions). Often easier, but it may race with a dirty bit update on another CPU. Booted on x86 and ppc64.

This patch implements separate per-cpu stacks for processing interrupts and softirqs, along the lines of the CONFIG_4KSTACKS stuff on x86. At the moment the stacks are still 16kB but I hope we can reduce that to 8kB in future. (Gcc is capable of adding instructions to the function prolog to check the stack pointer whenever it moves it downwards, and I want to use that when I try using 8kB stacks so I can be confident that we aren't overflowing the stack.)

It manifests when a user attempts to set an xattr on a file which they do not own, and on which an ACL is applied. What happens is this: reiserfs_setxattr [write lock inode xattr sem] ->xattr_set -> lookup -> __reiserfs_permission [if conditions above are met, and need_lock= is unset, read lock inode xattr sem] *lockup* Since we already keep track of when to lock during permission calls, the fix is simple: just make the locking conditional as it was before.

We have static int __init do_skip(void) { if (this_header + count <= next_header) { eat(count); return 1; } else { eat(next_header - this_header); state = next_state; return 0; } } and that <= should actually be <. It almost never matters, since if we hit the boundary case (header ending exactly on the gunzip window end) the current variant will simply end up doing extra call of do_skip() when we get to the next window and that will finish the work (assign state). The only exception is when we hit that in the last window. That is, if there's nothing after the final header (trailer). Then we miss the final state transition (Skip -> Reset) and get "junk in archive" panic. Normally cpio(1) pads the image to multiple of 512, so we actually have a bunch of zeroes after the trailer. And that almost always saves our butts - trailer is followed by zeroes, so we get to Reset state just fine. So we never see that on small in-kernel image (it's less than 512 bytes, so it gets a lot of padding) and we almost never see that on external ones (1:127 odds of hitting the bug).

The problem seems to be that nfsd is messing with its group_info quite a bit, while some monitoring processes look at /proc//status and do a get_group_info/put_group_info without any locking. This problem can be reproduced on ppc platforms within a few seconds if you generate some NFS load and do a "cat /proc/XXX/status" of an nfsd thread in a tight loop. I therefore think changes to current->group_info, and querying it from a different process, needs to be protected using the task_lock. (akpm: task->group_info here is safe against exit() because the task holds a ref on group_info which is released in __put_task_struct, and the /proc file has a ref on the task_struct).

ChangeSet@1.1743.1.14, 2004-05-25 08:36:46-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] Fix the mangled-oops-output-on-SMP problem From: Ingo Molnar printk currently does if (oops_in_progres) bust_printk_locks(); which means that once we oops, the printk locking is 100% ineffective and multiple CPUs make an unreadable mess on a serial console. It's a significant development hassle. Fix that up by only popping locks once per ten seconds. akpm@osdl.org did: - Bump the timeout to 30 seconds - 9600 baud is slow. - Handle jiffy wraps: change the logic so that we only skip the lockbust if the current time is within 30 seconds of the previous lockbusting attempt. ChangeSet@1.1743.1.13, 2004-05-25 08:36:31-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] Prevent scary warnings from knfsd From: "J. Bruce Fields" The kernel currently prints: nfsd: nobody listening for auth.unix.ip upcall; has some daemon not been started? on every bootup, during initscripts. Neil Brown says: It was part of the recent set of idmapper patches. Bruce wanted the admin to get a warning when the idmapper daemon wasn't running. I thought the same warning should apply to any daemon that responded to upcalls. In the case of auth.unix.ip it isn't strictly necessary for a daemon to be running (for comparability with 2.4). You can get rid of the warning by doing: mount -t nfsd nfsd /proc/fs/nfs before mountd is started (init scripts should start doing this I hope, but distributions don't tend to use the init script from nfs-utils, so it is hard to push it). This will trigger mountd to listen on auth.unix.ip and others. That's a hassle, so Bruce's patch limits the warning purely to the new idmapper cache. It provides a callback in the cache_detail that individual caches can use to log messages when upcalls fail because a userspace daemon not running. Implement this method for the idmapping caches.

There is currently a couple of bugs in this code which result in us assigning virtual IRQs for nonexistent physical IRQs. This causes problems when we call the firmware to enable or disable those nonexistent physical IRQs. Some versions at least of the firmware will hit an assertion failure and crash the machine when this happens. This patch fixes the bugs and ensures that we don't try and use nonexistent physical IRQ numbers. One bug was that we were mapping ISA interrupts, which is unnecessary since virtual IRQ numbers 0 - 15 are reserved for them. The other was that when we had a PCI interrupt (which is always in the range 1 to 4, corresponding to INTA to INTD) which didn't have a mapping in the PCI host bridge above it, we were just using the original number (usually 1) rather than ignoring it.

The IOMAP_MAX_ORDER limit is just to catch bad drivers early, so we can bump this a bit. We want some room to grow but our maximum get_free_pages allocation on ppc64 is currently 16MB, so it doesnt make sense to go above that.

It works like this: after you have created the virtual disk file on OS/400 and attached it to the Linux partition, you need to write to /sys/bus/vio/drivers/viodasd/probe (it doesn't matter what you write). This will do the probe. It calls add_disk() for each new disk, so we get hotplug events as a side effect. This was the nicest way I could think of doing this as the interface to the hypervisor is polled ...

Dave found an OF property that gives us exactly what we want. - Things were broken on SMT machines. The new code should work on those broken systems and should no longer BUG() but fall back to a flat topology when it gets confused.

ChangeSet@1.1743.1.2, 2004-05-24 17:19:59-07:00, paulus@samba.org [PATCH] ppc64: better stack traces This improves the stack traces we get on PPC64 by putting a marker in those stack frames that are created as a result of an interrupt or exception. The marker is "regshere" (0x7265677368657265). With this, stack traces show where exceptions have occurred, which can be very useful. This also improves the accuracy of the trace because the relevant return address can be in the link register at the time of the exception rather than on the stack. We now print the PC and exception type for each exception frame, and then the link register if appropriate as the next item in the trace.

ChangeSet@1.1744, 2004-05-24 10:13:27-07:00, herbert@gondor.apana.org.au [IPSEC]: Fix OOPS when deleting an ip address. Looks like I was too hasty in blaming myself :) Although my patch does fix a real bug, it cannot have been responsible for the crash that the OP reported. The reason is that the state timer always keeps a reference to the state so even if it is incorrectly re-added the reference will prevent the crash. Hence the problem is still a bug in the ref counting. I think I've found the real culprit now. __xfrm?_find_acq() is missing an xfrm_state_hold on the create path. This also explains why I never see it myself since Openswan never creates states through that code-path.
