This is wrong, because transactions nest inside lock_page(). The deadlock is against shrink_list->ext3_journalled_writepage->journal_start. This was not noticed before because we never used to journal writepage() data in journalled-data mode. And because the deadlock against generic_file_write() is covered up by i_sem. Rework things so that we lock the page prior to starting a transaction.

ChangeSet@1.1473, 2003-06-25 18:21:09-07:00, akpm@digeo.com [PATCH] normalise node load for NUMA From: Andrew Theurer This patch ensures that when node loads are compared, the load value is normalised. Without this, load balance across nodes of dissimilar cpu counts can cause unfairness and sometimes lower overall performance. For example, a 2 node system with 4 cpus in the first node and 2 cpus in the second. A workload with 6 running tasks would have 3 tasks running on one node and 3 on the other, leaving one cpu idle in the first node and two tasks sharing a cpu in the second node. The patch would ensure that 4 tasks run in the first node and 2 in the second. I ran some kernel compiles comparing this patch on a 2 node 4 cpu/2 cpu system to show the benefits. Without the patch I got 140 second elapsed time. With the patch I get 132 seconds (6% better). Although it is not very common to have nodes with dissimilar cpu counts, it is already happening. PPC64 systems with partitioning have this happen, and I expect it to be more common on ia32 as partitioning becomes more common.

Urban says: In 2.5 the server->ops is initialized when smbfs gets a connection, to match whatever the server is capable of or not. This happens after the mount syscall so smbfs is then mounted but not usable. Not sure if smb_lookup is always called before any other operation that uses server->ops. If it is then it would be enough to have a test there. Otherwise I will just change all users of server->ops to verify the pointer first and return -EIO or something. Al Viro says (paraphrasing) ugh, we need mount2(). It doesn't look to me like we'll be getting mount2() in the 2.6 timeframe. Zwane's patch implement's Urban's workaround.

By using per dentry lock, it is solved as we d_lookup() will fail the lookup for unhashed dentries.

The initial, more naive hole-cache patch helped the testcode in the beginning. Then after some point glibc started creating a 'small hole' in the vmas, which hole was _below_ the thread stacks, and which hole thus prevented the intended operation of the cache. The new code solves the problem by relaxing the 'smallest address hole cache' rule a bit, the cache is now not re-set at every get_unmapped_area() time, it's only re-set during unmaps. It's also re-set if there are no allocatable mappings at all - ie. correctness is not affected.

ChangeSet@1.1465, 2003-06-25 18:19:59-07:00, akpm@digeo.com [PATCH] AT_SECURE auxv entry From: Stephen Smalley This patch adds an AT_SECURE auxv entry to pass a boolean flag indicating whether "secure mode" should be enabled (i.e. sanitize the environment, initial descriptors, etc) and allows each security module to specify the flag value via a new hook. New userland can then simply obey this flag when present rather than applying other methods of deciding (sample patch for glibc-2.3.2 can be found at http://www.cs.utah.edu/~sds/glibc-secureexec.patch). This change enables security modules like SELinux to request secure mode upon changes to other security attributes (e.g. capabilities, roles/domains, etc) in addition to uid/gid changes or even to completely override the legacy logic. The legacy decision algorithm is preserved in the default hook functions for the dummy and capability security modules. Credit for the idea of adding an AT_SECURE auxv entry goes to Roland McGrath.

Most of the most recent ones are due to some newer Intel chipsets (865, 875). The IO APIC Version register doesn't indicate the differences in these IO APICs. I have an patch that addresses these chipsets. It has been tested by a few people with good results and has been blessed by Maciej Rozycki. Other than conditionally decoding IO APIC registers 2 and 3, we could alternately ignore them since Linux doesn't use the values for anything other than printing them. This patch ignores IO APIC register 2 if it's the same value as IO APIC register 1. It also reads IO APIC register 3 if the IO APIC version is >= 0x20, but some chipsets don't support this register, so it is also ignored if its value if the same as IO APIC register 1 or 2. Another possible(?) alternative is to read the PID/VID of the device to determine which registers it supports. However, PCI devices have not been scanned at this point in init, so it would require scanning PCI config space directly and I don't yet see the point of doing that. Oh, and the UNEXPECTED_IO_APIC() function doesn't print anything in 2.5.current and I didn't change that.

It is possible that some P4 machines with broken BIOSen were saved by our refusal to enable the local APIC. We can handle them via the DMI blacklist rules instead.

The /proc/net/rpc/*/content files now will show entries that are still in the cache, but are either expired or negative, as comment. ip_map_show is enhance to work if called with a negative or incomplete entry.

ChangeSet@1.1416, 2003-06-24 12:14:41-07:00, neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au [PATCH] Include update mode in declaration of RPC information caches. The sunrpc/cache.c caches which store nfsd export information can be updated either "inplace" or by replacing the entry. replacement is needed when an entry hold a reference to some other object, so the reference counts work properly. "inplace" can be used when no such references are held, and should be used when the object could be refered to by another cache (as otherwise the other cache would have to be updated whenever this one is). Previously the type of update (inplace or replace) was specified as an argument to the *_lookup operation. This too easily lead to inconsistancies. With this patch, the update mode is specified when the cache is declared.

ChangeSet@1.1348.20.1, 2003-06-23 11:44:52-07:00, ink@jurassic.park.msu.ru [PATCH] PCI: fix non-hotplug build Current BK won't build when CONFIG_HOTPLUG is not set due to undefined references to pci_destroy_dev in hotplug.c. I think it makes sense to not compile hotplug.c in this case at all. Also, this allows to get rid of several function which are unused in non-hotplug kernel. Tested on Alpha.

We seem to have resurected the "ide_cs" driver name for the ide-cs module. Restore the driver name to "ide-cs".

ChangeSet@1.1348.17.3, 2003-06-22 18:40:55-07:00, ldl@aros.net [PATCH] fix nbd driver for 2.5 block layer This makes NBD work with the new linux 2.5 block layer design. Specifically, it fixes memory corruption that results from module removal and possible memory corruption from sending or receiving disk data from the server. It essentially rolls together the changes from two of the last patchlets that I emailed: the fix for module removal & the fix for incorrect struct bio usage. I believe it's wisest to roll these both together into this one patch since they both deal with making NBD work better with the 2.5 linux block layer design and without either of which, it's possible that NBD will corrupt memory. Other changes I'd like to see introduced (like in the earlier jumbo patch) meanwhile are feature enhancements so they can wait. This patch also should address all the very helpful concerns that have been raised so far. Particularly: 1. that the very first submitted NBD patch was broken down [Andrew] 2. that only 1 spinlock is used for all the NBD request_queue structures used [Jens,Al] 3. that kmap() is used in case of highmem pages [Jens] 4. that the allocation of request_queue is dynamic and seperate from other allocated objects [Al] ChangeSet@1.1348.17.2, 2003-06-22 18:37:32-07:00, Andries.Brouwer@cwi.nl [PATCH] loop.c cleanups This does the following: - remove trailing spaces - make loop.h independent by including bio.h, blk.h, spinlock.h - replace the lock/unlock functions by module_get/module_put; in struct loop this is the change - void (*lock)(struct loop_device *); - void (*unlock)(struct loop_device *); + struct module *owner; - replace the integer lo_encrypt_type by the pointer lo_encryption; there was a race with loop_unregister_transfer - fixed an off-by-one in loop_register_transfer This is Step 1 of a series of half a dozen or so. Half of the above is from Jari. Anything that is wrong is mine. ChangeSet@1.1348.17.1, 2003-06-22 17:20:47-07:00, akpm@digeo.com [PATCH] __devinitdata declarations should not be marked const.
