2010-12-07nfs: Discard ACL cache on mode updateAneesh Kumar K.V
An update of mode bits can result in ACL value being changed. We need to mark the acl cache invalid when we update mode.

2010-12-07fanotify: on group destroy allow all waiters to bypass permission checkLino Sanfilippo
When fanotify_release() is called, there may still be processes waiting for access permission. Currently only processes for which an event has already been queued into the groups access list will be woken up. Processes for which no event has been queued will continue to sleep and thus cause a deadlock when fsnotify_put_group() is called. Furthermore there is a race allowing further processes to be waiting on the access wait queue after wake_up (if they arrive before clear_marks_by_group() is called). This patch corrects this by setting a flag to inform processes that the group is about to be destroyed and thus not to wait for access permission. [additional changelog from eparis] Lets think about the 4 relevant code paths from the PoV of the 'operator' 'listener' 'responder' and 'closer'. Where operator is the process doing an action (like open/read) which could require permission. Listener is the task (or in this case thread) slated with reading from the fanotify file descriptor. The 'responder' is the thread responsible for responding to access requests. 'Closer' is the thread attempting to close the fanotify file descriptor. The 'operator' is going to end up in: fanotify_handle_event() get_response_from_access() (THIS BLOCKS WAITING ON USERSPACE) The 'listener' interesting code path fanotify_read() copy_event_to_user() prepare_for_access_response() (THIS CREATES AN fanotify_response_event) The 'responder' code path: fanotify_write() process_access_response() (REMOVE A fanotify_response_event, SET RESPONSE, WAKE UP 'operator') The 'closer': fanotify_release() (SUPPOSED TO CLEAN UP THE REST OF THIS MESS) What we have today is that in the closer we remove all of the fanotify_response_events and set a bit so no more response events are ever created in prepare_for_access_response(). The bug is that we never wake all of the operators up and tell them to move along. You fix that in fanotify_get_response_from_access(). You also fix other operators which haven't gotten there yet. So I agree that's a good fix.

2010-12-07fanotify: Dont allow a mask of 0 if setting or removing a markLino Sanfilippo
In mark_remove_from_mask() we destroy marks that have their event mask cleared. Thus we should not allow the creation of those marks in the first place.

2010-12-07fanotify: correct broken ref counting in case adding a mark failedLino Sanfilippo
If adding a mount or inode mark failed fanotify_free_mark() is called explicitly. But at this time the mark has already been put into the destroy list of the fsnotify_mark kernel thread. If the thread is too slow it will try to decrease the reference of a mark, that has already been freed by fanotify_free_mark(). (If its fast enough it will only decrease the marks ref counter from 2 to 1 - note that the counter has been increased to 2 in add_mark() - which has practically no effect.) This patch fixes the ref counting by not calling free_mark() explicitly, but decreasing the ref counter and rely on the fsnotify_mark thread to cleanup in case adding the mark has failed.

2010-12-07fanotify: if set by user unset FMODE_NONOTIFY before fsnotify_perm() is calledLino Sanfilippo
Unsetting FMODE_NONOTIFY in fsnotify_open() is too late, since fsnotify_perm() is called before. If FMODE_NONOTIFY is set fsnotify_perm() will skip permission checks, so a user can still disable permission checks by setting this flag in an open() call. This patch corrects this by unsetting the flag before fsnotify_perm is called. Signed-off-by: Lino Sanfilippo <LinoSanfilippo@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>

2010-12-07sfc: Fix crash in legacy onterrupt handler during ring reallocationBen Hutchings
If we are using a legacy interrupt, our IRQ may be shared and our interrupt handler may be called even though interrupts are disabled on the NIC. When we change ring sizes, we reallocate the event queue and the interrupt handler may use an invalid pointer when called for another device's interrupt. Maintain a legacy_irq_enabled flag and test that at the top of the interrupt handler. Note that this problem results from the need to work around broken INT_ISR0 reads, and does not affect the legacy interrupt handler for Falcon A1.

It's possible that cifs_mount will call cifs_build_path_to_root on a newly instantiated cifs_sb. In that case, it's likely that the master_tlink pointer has not yet been instantiated.

2010-12-07ALSA: hda - Always allow basic audio irrespective of ELD infoAnssi Hannula
Commit bbbe33900d1f3c added functionality to restrict PCM parameters based on ELD info (derived from EDID data) of the audio sink. However, according to CEA-861-D no SAD is needed for basic audio (32/44.1/48kHz stereo 16-bit audio), which is instead indicated with a basic audio flag in the CEA EDID Extension. The flag is not present in ELD. However, as all audio capable sinks are required to support basic audio, we can assume it to be always available. Fix allowed audio formats with sinks that have SADs (Short Audio Descriptors) which do not completely overlap with the basic audio formats (there are no reports of affected devices so far) by always assuming that basic audio is supported.

2010-12-07ALSA: hda - Do not wrongly restrict min_channels based on ELDAnssi Hannula
Commit bbbe33900d1f3c added functionality to restrict PCM parameters based on ELD info (derived from EDID data) of the audio sink. However, it wrongly assumes that the bits 0-2 of the first byte of CEA Short Audio Descriptors mean a supported number of channels. In reality, they mean the maximum number of channels (as per CEA-861-D 7.5.2). This means that the channel count can only be used to restrict max_channels, not min_channels. Restricting min_channels causes us to deny opening the device in stereo mode if the sink only has SADs that declare larger numbers of channels (like Primare SP32 AV Processor does). Fix that by not restricting min_channels based on ELD information.

With the recent changes to remove the BKL a mutex was added to the ioctl entry point for calls to the old ioctl interface. This mutex needs to be removed because of the need for the expire ioctl to call back to the daemon to perform a umount and receive a completion status (via another ioctl). This should be fine as the new ioctl interface uses much of the same code and it has been used without a mutex for around a year without issue, as was the original intention.

2010-12-06PM / Hibernate: Fix memory corruption related to swapRafael J. Wysocki
There is a problem that swap pages allocated before the creation of a hibernation image can be released and used for storing the contents of different memory pages while the image is being saved. Since the kernel stored in the image doesn't know of that, it causes memory corruption to occur after resume from hibernation, especially on systems with relatively small RAM that need to swap often. This issue can be addressed by keeping the GFP_IOFS bits clear in gfp_allowed_mask during the entire hibernation, including the saving of the image, until the system is finally turned off or the hibernation is aborted. Unfortunately, for this purpose it's necessary to rework the way in which the hibernate and suspend code manipulates gfp_allowed_mask. This change is based on an earlier patch from Hugh Dickins.
