2006-03-25[PATCH] add a proper prototype for setup_arch()Adrian Bunk1-2/+0

2006-03-25[PATCH] POLLRDHUP/EPOLLRDHUP handling for half-closed devices notificationsDavide Libenzi28-4/+35
Implement the half-closed devices notifiation, by adding a new POLLRDHUP (and its alias EPOLLRDHUP) bit to the existing poll/select sets. Since the existing POLLHUP handling, that does not report correctly half-closed devices, was feared to be changed, this implementation leaves the current POLLHUP reporting unchanged and simply add a new bit that is set in the few places where it makes sense. The same thing was discussed and conceptually agreed quite some time ago: http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/12/116 Since this new event bit is added to the existing Linux poll infrastruture, even the existing poll/select system calls will be able to use it. As far as the existing POLLHUP handling, the patch leaves it as is. The pollrdhup-2.6.16.rc5-0.10.diff defines the POLLRDHUP for all the existing archs and sets the bit in the six relevant files. The other attached diff is the simple change required to sys/epoll.h to add the EPOLLRDHUP definition. There is "a stupid program" to test POLLRDHUP delivery here: http://www.xmailserver.org/pollrdhup-test.c It tests poll(2), but since the delivery is same epoll(2) will work equally.

2006-03-25[PATCH] IRQ: prevent enabling of previously disabled interruptBryan Holty1-4/+17
This fix prevents re-disabling and enabling of a previously disabled interrupt. On an SMP system with irq balancing enabled; If an interrupt is disabled from within its own interrupt context with disable_irq_nosync and is also earmarked for processor migration, the interrupt is blindly moved to the other processor and enabled without regard for its current "enabled" state. If there is an interrupt pending, it will unexpectedly invoke the irq handler on the new irq owning processor (even though the irq was previously disabled) The more intuitive fix would be to invoke disable_irq_nosync and enable_irq, but since we already have the desc->lock from __do_IRQ, we cannot call them directly. Instead we can use the same logic to disable and enable found in disable_irq_nosync and enable_irq, with regards to the desc->depth. This now prevents a disabled interrupt from being re-disabled, and more importantly prevents a disabled interrupt from being incorrectly enabled on a different processor.

2006-03-25[PATCH] 9p: fix name consistency problemsEric Van Hensbergen6-23/+22
There were a number of conflicting naming schemes used in the v9fs project. The directory was fs/9p, but MAINTAINERS and Documentation referred to v9fs. The module name itself was 9p2000, and the file system type was 9P. This patch attempts to clean that up, changing all references to 9p in order to match the directory name. We'll also start using 9p instead of v9fs as our patch prefix. There is also a minor consistency cleanup in the options changing the name option to uname in order to more closely match the Plan 9 options.

Remove the assumption that driver_register() returns the number of devices bound to the driver. In fact, it returns zero for success or a negative error value. zorro_module_init() used the device count to automatically unregister and unload drivers that found no devices. That might have worked at one time, but has been broken for some time because zorro_register_driver() returned either a negative error or a positive count (never zero). So it could only unregister on failure, when it's not needed anyway. This functionality could be resurrected in individual drivers by counting devices in their .probe() methods.

We presently ignore the return values from initcalls. But that can carry useful debugging information. So print it out if it's non-zero. It turns out the -ENODEV happens quite a lot, due to built-in drivers which have no hardware to drive. So suppress that unless initcall_debug was specified. Also make the warning message more friendly by printing the name of the initcall function. Also drop the KERN_DEBUG from the initcall_debug message. If we specified inticall_debug then we obviously want to see the messages.

2006-03-25[PATCH] inotify: lock avoidance with parent watch status in dentryNick Piggin5-10/+117
Previous inotify work avoidance is good when inotify is completely unused, but it breaks down if even a single watch is in place anywhere in the system. Robin Holt notices that udev is one such culprit - it slows down a 512-thread application on a 512 CPU system from 6 seconds to 22 minutes. Solve this by adding a flag in the dentry that tells inotify whether or not its parent inode has a watch on it. Event queueing to parent will skip taking locks if this flag is cleared. Setting and clearing of this flag on all child dentries versus event delivery: this is no in terms of race cases, and that was shown to be equivalent to always performing the check. The essential behaviour is that activity occuring _after_ a watch has been added and _before_ it has been removed, will generate events.

2006-03-25[PATCH] Missed error checking for intent's filp in open_namei().Oleg Drokin1-0/+6
It seems there is error check missing in open_namei for errors returned through intent.open.file (from lookup_instantiate_filp). If there is plain open performed, then such a check done inside __path_lookup_intent_open called from path_lookup_open(), but when the open is performed with O_CREAT flag set, then __path_lookup_intent_open is only called with LOOKUP_PARENT set where no file opening can occur yet. Later on lookup_hash is called where exact opening might take place and intent.open.file may be filled. If it is filled with error value of some sort, then we get kernel attempting to dereference this error value as address (and corresponding oops) in nameidata_to_filp() called from filp_open(). While this is relatively simple to workaround in ->lookup() method by just checking lookup_instantiate_filp() return value and returning error as needed, this is not so easy in ->d_revalidate(), where we can only return "yes, dentry is valid" or "no, dentry is invalid, perform full lookup again", and just returning 0 on error would cause extra lookup (with potential extra costly RPCs). So in short, I believe that there should be no difference in error handling for opening a file and creating a file in open_namei() and propose this simple patch as a solution.

2006-03-25[PATCH] jbd: embed j_commit_timer in journal structAndrew Morton3-13/+14
The kjournald timer is currently on the kernel thread's stack and the journal structure points at it. Save a pointer hop by moving the timer into the journal structure. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-03-25[PATCH] Keys: Replace duplicate non-updateable keys rather than failingDavid Howells1-5/+9
Cause an attempt to add a duplicate non-updateable key (such as a keyring) to a keyring to discard the extant copy in favour of the new one rather than failing with EEXIST: # do the test in an empty session keyctl session # create a new keyring called "a" and attach to session keyctl newring a @s # create another new keyring called "a" and attach to session, # displacing the keyring added by the second command: keyctl newring a @s Without this patch, the third command will fail. For updateable keys (such as those of "user" type), the update method will still be called rather than a new key being created.
