People can use /proc/sys instead. The numeric name space was never well maintained and especially in distribution kernels is not very consistent (everybody has their own extensions, conflicting with others). It's also a great source of rejects when merging patches. The name-based /proc/sys is a much better interface for this, which people should use instead. Discussion of this on l-k found no advocate for it, so it seems to not be very popular anyways. This patch deprecates numerical name space accesses to make it possible to remove them in the future.

When devfs_lookup releases directory i_sem devfs_d_revalidate_wait grabs it (it happens not for every path) and goes to wait to be waked up. Unfortunately, devfs_lookup attempts to acquire directory i_sem before ever waking it up ... To reproduce (2.5.74 UP or SMP - does not matter, single CPU system) ls /dev/foo & rm -f /dev/foo & or possibly in a loop but then it easily fills up process table. In my case it hangs 100% reliably - on 2.5 OR 2.4. The current fix is to move re-acquire of i_sem after all devfs_d_revalidate_wait waiters have been waked up. Much better fix would be to ensure that ->d_revalidate either is always called under i_sem or always without. But that means the very heart of VFS and I do not dare to touch it. The fix has been tested on 2.4 (and is part of unofficial Mandrake Club kernel); I expected the same bug is in 2.5; I just was stupid not seeing the way to reproduce it before. ChangeSet@1.1438, 2003-07-11 00:04:38-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] devfs oops fix From: Andrey Borzenkov Doing concurrent lookups for the same name in devfs with devfsd and modules enabled may result in stack coruption. When devfs_lookup needs to call devfsd it arranges for other lookups for the same name to wait. It is using local variable as wait queue head. After devfsd returns devfs_lookup wakes up all waiters and returns. Unfortunately there is no garantee all waiters will actually get chance to run and clean up before devfs_lookup returns. so some of them attempt to access already freed storage on stack. It is trivial to trigger with SMP kernel (I have single-CPU system if it matters) doing while true do ls /dev/foo & done Without spinlock debug system usually hung dead with reset button as the only possibility. I was not able to reproduce it on 2.4 on single-CPU system - in 2.4 devfs_d_revalidate_wait does not attempt to remove itself from wait queue so it appears to be safe. The patch makes lookup struct be allocated from heap and adds reference counter to free it when no more needed.

ChangeSet@1.1434, 2003-07-11 00:04:11-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] ext3: sync_fs() fix From: Alex Tomas fsync_super() calls ->sync_fs() just after ->write_super(). But write_super() will start a commit. In this case, ext3_sync_fs() will not itself start a commit, and it hence forgets to wait on the commit which ext3_write_super() started. Fix that up by making journal_start_commit() return the transaction ID of any currently-running transaction. ChangeSet@1.1433, 2003-07-11 00:04:04-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] JBD: transaction buffer accounting fix From: Alex Tomas start_this_handle() takes into account t_outstanding_credits when calculating log free space, but journal_next_log_block() accounts for blocks being logged also. Hence, blocks are accounting twice. This effectively reduces the amount of log space available to transactions and forces more commits. Fix it by decrementing t_outstanding_credits each time we allocate a new journal block. ChangeSet@1.1432, 2003-07-11 00:03:57-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] JBD: checkpointing optimisations From: Alex Tomas Some transaction checkpointing improvements for the JBD commit phase. Decent speedups: creation of 500K files in single dir (with htree, of course): before: 4m16.094s, 4m12.035s, 4m11.911s after: 1m41.364s, 1m43.461s, 1m45.189s removal of 500K files in single dir: before: 43m50.161s after: 38m45.510s - Make __log_wait_for_space() recalculate the needed blocks because journal free space changes during commit - Make log_do_checkpoint() starts scanning from the oldest transaction - Make log_do_checkpoint() stop scanning if a transaction gets dropped. The caller will reevaluate the transaction state and decide whether more space needs to be generated in the log. The effect of this is to smooth out the I/O patterns, avoid the huge stop-and-go which currently happens when forced checkpointing writes out and waits upon 3/4 of the journal's size worth of data.

I think we can use a separate lock for vfsmount related work and can improve path walking. The following two patches does the same. The first one replaces dcache_lock with new vfsmount_lock in namespace.c. The lock is local to namespace.c and is not required outside. The second patch uses RCU to have lock free lookup_mnt().

What happens is that on an architecture that has a relaxed memory ordering model like IPF(ia64), explicit memory barrier is required in a SMP execution environment. Considering the following case: 1 CPU is executing a tight loop of aio_read_evt. It is pulling event off the ring buffer. During that loop, another CPU is executing aio_complete() where it is putting event into the ring buffer and then update the tail pointer. However, due to relaxed memory ordering model, the tail pointer can be visible before the actual event is being updated. So the other CPU sees the updated tail pointer but picks up a staled event data. A memory barrier is required in this case between the event data and tail pointer update. Same is true for the head pointer but the window of the race condition is nil. For function correctness, it is fixed here as well. By the way, this bug is fixed in the major distributor's kernel on 2.4.x kernel series for a while, but somehow hasn't been propagated to 2.5 kernel yet. ChangeSet@1.1420, 2003-07-11 00:02:37-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] Bug fix in AIO initialization From: "Chen, Kenneth W" We hit this bug when we have the following scenario: One process initializes an AIO context and then forks out many child processes. When those child processes exit, many BUG checks (effectively kernel oops) were triggered from put_ioctx(ctx) in function exit_aio(). The issue was that the AIO context was incorrectly copied upon forking and mislead all child processes to think they have an IO context and trying to free it where they really don't own. The following patch fix the issue. ChangeSet@1.1419, 2003-07-11 00:02:29-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] Set umask correctly for nfsd kernel threads From: Andreas Gruenbacher Without acls, when creating files the umask is applied directly in the vfs. ACLs require that the umask is applied at the file system level, depending on whether or not the containing directory has a default acl. The daemonize() function makes kernel threads share their fs_struct structure with the init process. Among other things, fs_struct contains the umask, so all kernel threads share their umask with init. The kernel nfsd needs to create files with a umask of 0. Init's umask cannot simply be changed to 0 --- this would have side effects on init, and init would have side effects on nfsd. So this patch recreates a fs_struct structure for nfsd kernel threads, and sets its umask to 0. This fixes bug #721, . ChangeSet@1.1418, 2003-07-11 00:02:22-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] misc fixes - remove accidental debug code from ext3 commit. - /proc/profile documentation fix (Randy Dunlap) - use sb_breadahead() in ext2_preread_inode() - unused var in mpage_writepages() ChangeSet@1.1417, 2003-07-11 00:02:16-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] make CONFIG_KALLSYMS default to "on" From: Diego Calleja Garcia Move CONFIG_KALLSYMS out of the arch directory and into init/. It defaults to "on" unless the user explicitly turns it off in the "embedded systems" menu. ChangeSet@1.1416, 2003-07-11 00:02:09-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] kmap() -> kmap_atomic() in fs/exec.c replace a kmap() with kmap_atomic() ChangeSet@1.1415, 2003-07-11 00:02:02-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] i_size atomic access From: Daniel McNeil This adds i_seqcount to the inode structure and then uses i_size_read() and i_size_write() to provide atomic access to i_size. This is a port of Andrea Arcangeli's i_size atomic access patch from 2.4. This only uses the generic reader/writer consistent mechanism. Before: mnm:/usr/src/25> size vmlinux text data bss dec hex filename 2229582 1027683 162436 3419701 342e35 vmlinux After: mnm:/usr/src/25> size vmlinux text data bss dec hex filename 2225642 1027655 162436 3415733 341eb5 vmlinux 3.9k more text, a lot of it fastpath :( It's a very minor bug, and the fix has a fairly non-minor cost. The most compelling reason for fixing this is that writepage() checks i_size. If it sees a transient value it may decide that page is outside i_size and will refuse to write it. Lost user data. ChangeSet@1.1414, 2003-07-11 00:01:54-07:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] i_size atomic access: infrastructure From: Daniel McNeil This adds a sequence counter only version of the reader/writer consistent mechanism to seqlock.h This is used in the second part of this patch give atomic access to i_size.

This should get rid of the strange uptime>14600 days reports, except on arm whose arch file layout is too unfamiliar to me. The patch is blessed by George Anzinger, but untested due to lack of hardware.
