2006-02-28[PATCH] Add mm->task_size and fix powerpc vdsoBenjamin Herrenschmidt1-0/+6
This patch adds mm->task_size to keep track of the task size of a given mm and uses that to fix the powerpc vdso so that it uses the mm task size to decide what pages to fault in instead of the current thread flags (which broke when ptracing). (akpm: I expect that mm_struct.task_size will become the way in which we finally sort out the confusion between 32-bit processes and 32-bit mm's. It may need tweaks, but at this stage this patch is powerpc-only.)

2006-02-28[PATCH] fuse: fix bug in negative lookupMiklos Szeredi1-2/+8
If negative entries (nodeid == 0) were sent in reply to LOOKUP requests, two bugs could be triggered: - looking up a negative entry would return -EIO, - revaildate on an entry which turned negative would send a FORGET request with zero nodeid, which would cause an abort() in the library. The above would only happen if the 'negative_timeout=N' option was used, otherwise lookups reply -ENOENT, which worked correctly.

2006-02-24[PATCH] flags parameter for linkatUlrich Drepper1-2/+6
I'm currently at the POSIX meeting and one thing covered was the incompatibility of Linux's link() with the POSIX definition. The name. Linux does not follow symlinks, POSIX requires it does. Even if somebody thinks this is a good default behavior we cannot change this because it would break the ABI. But the fact remains that some application might want this behavior. We have one chance to help implementing this without breaking the behavior. For this we could use the new linkat interface which would need a new flags parameter. If the new parameter is AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW the new behavior could be invoked. I do not want to introduce such a patch now. But we could add the parameter now, just don't use it. The patch below would do this. Can we get this late patch applied before the release more or less fixes the syscall API?

2006-02-22Revert mount/umount uevent removalGreg Kroah-Hartman1-1/+14
This change reverts the 033b96fd30db52a710d97b06f87d16fc59fee0f1 commit from Kay Sievers that removed the mount/umount uevents from the kernel. Some older versions of HAL still depend on these events to detect when a new device has been mounted. These events are not correctly emitted, and are broken by design, and so, should not be relied upon by any future program. Instead, the /proc/mounts file should be polled to properly detect this kind of event. A feature-removal-schedule.txt entry has been added, noting when this interface will be removed from the kernel.

2006-02-17[PATCH] fix deadlock in ext2Peter Staubach1-2/+4
Fix a deadlock possible in the ext2 file system implementation. This deadlock occurs when a file is removed from an ext2 file system which was mounted with the "sync" mount option. The problem is that ext2_xattr_delete_inode() was invoking the routine, sync_dirty_buffer(), using a buffer head which was previously locked via lock_buffer(). The first thing that sync_dirty_buffer() does is to lock the buffer head that it was passed. It does this via lock_buffer(). Oops. The solution is to unlock the buffer head in ext2_xattr_delete_inode() before invoking sync_dirty_buffer(). This makes the code in ext2_xattr_delete_inode() obey the same locking rules as all other callers of sync_dirty_buffer() in the ext2 file system implementation.

2006-02-14[PATCH] NLM: Fix the NLM_GRANTED callback checksTrond Myklebust3-12/+19
If 2 threads attached to the same process are blocking on different locks on different files (maybe even on different servers) but have the same lock arguments (i.e. same offset+length - actually quite common, since most processes try to lock the entire file) then the first GRANTED call that wakes one up will also wake the other. Currently when the NLM_GRANTED callback comes in, lockd walks the list of blocked locks in search of a match to the lock that the NLM server has granted. Although it checks the lock pid, start and end, it fails to check the filehandle and the server address. By checking the filehandle and server IP address, we ensure that this only happens if the locks truly are referencing the same file.

2006-02-11[PATCH] select: fix returned timevalAndrew Morton2-21/+48
With David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> select() presently has a habit of increasing the value of the user's `timeout' argument on return. We were writing back a timeout larger than the original. We _deliberately_ round up, since we know we must wait at _least_ as long as the caller asks us to. The patch adds a couple of helper functions for magnitude comparison of timespecs and of timevals, and uses them to prevent the various poll and select functions from returning a timeout which is larger than the one which was passed in. The patch also fixes a bug in compat_sys_pselect7(): it was adding the new timeout value to the old one and was returning that. It should just return the new timeout value. (We have various handy timespec/timeval-to-from-nsec conversion functions in time.h. But this code open-codes it all). Cc: "David S.

2006-02-11[PATCH] fstatat64 supportUlrich Drepper1-0/+22
The *at patches introduced fstatat and, due to inusfficient research, I used the newfstat functions generally as the guideline. The result is that on 32-bit platforms we don't have all the information needed to implement fstatat64. This patch modifies the code to pass up 64-bit information if __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 is defined. I renamed the syscall entry point to make this clear. Other archs will continue to use the existing code. On x86-64 the compat code is implemented using a new sys32_ function. this is what is done for the other stat syscalls as well. This patch might break some other archs (those which define __ARCH_WANT_STAT64 and which already wired up the syscall). Yet others might need changes to accomodate the compatibility mode. I really don't want to do that work because all this stat handling is a mess (more so in glibc, but the kernel is also affected). It should be done by the arch maintainers. I'll provide some stand-alone test shortly. Those who are eager could compile glibc and run 'make check' (no installation needed). The patch below has been tested on x86 and x86-64.
