2011-02-11vfs: call rcu_barrier after ->kill_sb()Boaz Harrosh
In commit fa0d7e3de6d6 ("fs: icache RCU free inodes"), we use rcu free inode instead of freeing the inode directly. It causes a crash when we rmmod immediately after we umount the volume[1]. So we need to call rcu_barrier after we kill_sb so that the inode is freed before we do rmmod. The idea is inspired by Aneesh Kumar. rcu_barrier will wait for all callbacks to end before preceding. The original patch was done by Tao Ma, but synchronize_rcu() is not enough here. 1. http://marc.info/?l=linux-fsdevel&m=129680863330185&w=2 Tested-by: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@taobao.com> Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2011-02-11Fix possible filp_cachep memory corruptionLinus Torvalds
In commit 31e6b01f4183 ("fs: rcu-walk for path lookup") we started doing path lookup using RCU, which then falls back to a careful non-RCU lookup in case of problems (LOOKUP_REVAL). So do_filp_open() has this "re-do the lookup carefully" looping case. However, that means that we must not release the open-intent file data if we are going to loop around and use it once more! Fix this by moving the release of the open-intent data to the function that allocates it (do_filp_open() itself) rather than the helper functions that can get called multiple times (finish_open() and do_last()). This makes the logic for the lifetime of that field much more obvious, and avoids the possible double free. Reported-by: J. R.

2011-02-11drm/i915/tv: Use polling rather than interrupt-based hotplugChris Wilson
The documentation recommends that we should use a polling method for TV detection as this is more power efficient than the interrupt based mechanism (as the encoder can be completely switched off). A secondary effect is that leaving the hotplug enabled seems to be causing pipe underruns as reported by Hugh Dickins on his Crestline.

2011-02-11cifs: don't always drop malformed replies on the floor (try #3)Jeff Layton
Slight revision to this patch...use min_t() instead of conditional assignment. Also, remove the FIXME comment and replace it with the explanation that Steve gave earlier. After receiving a packet, we currently check the header. If it's no good, then we toss it out and continue the loop, leaving the caller waiting on that response. In cases where the packet has length inconsistencies, but the MID is valid, this leads to unneeded delays. That's especially problematic now that the client waits indefinitely for responses. Instead, don't immediately discard the packet if checkSMB fails. Try to find a matching mid_q_entry, mark it as having a malformed response and issue the callback.

2011-02-11tpm_tis: Use timeouts returned from TPMStefan Berger
The current TPM TIS driver in git discards the timeout values returned from the TPM. The check of the response packet needs to consider that the return_code field is 0 on success and the size of the expected packet is equivalent to the header size + u32 length indicator for the TPM_GetCapability() result + 3 timeout indicators of type u32. I am also adding a sysfs entry 'timeouts' showing the timeouts that are being used.

2011-02-10cap_syslog: accept CAP_SYS_ADMIN for nowLinus Torvalds
In commit ce6ada35bdf7 ("security: Define CAP_SYSLOG") Serge Hallyn introduced CAP_SYSLOG, but broke backwards compatibility by no longer accepting CAP_SYS_ADMIN as an override (it would cause a warning and then reject the operation). Re-instate CAP_SYS_ADMIN - but keeping the warning - as an acceptable capability until any legacy applications have been updated. There are apparently applications out there that drop all capabilities except for CAP_SYS_ADMIN in order to access the syslog.

2011-02-09cfq-iosched: Don't wait if queue already has requests.Justin TerAvest
Commit 7667aa0630407bc07dc38dcc79d29cc0a65553c1 added logic to wait for the last queue of the group to become busy (have at least one request), so that the group does not lose out for not being continuously backlogged. The commit did not check for the condition that the last queue already has some requests. As a result, if the queue already has requests, wait_busy is set. Later on, cfq_select_queue() checks the flag, and decides that since the queue has a request now and wait_busy is set, the queue is expired. This results in early expiration of the queue. This patch fixes the problem by adding a check to see if queue already has requests. If it does, wait_busy is not set. As a result, time slices do not expire early. The queues with more than one request are usually buffered writers. Testing shows improvement in isolation between buffered writers.

2011-02-09netfilter: nf_conntrack: set conntrack templates again if we return NF_REPEATPablo Neira Ayuso
The TCP tracking code has a special case that allows to return NF_REPEAT if we receive a new SYN packet while in TIME_WAIT state. In this situation, the TCP tracking code destroys the existing conntrack to start a new clean session. [DESTROY] tcp 6 src=192.168.0.2 dst=192.168.1.2 sport=38925 dport=8000 src=192.168.1.2 dst=192.168.1.100 sport=8000 dport=38925 [ASSURED] [NEW] tcp 6 120 SYN_SENT src=192.168.0.2 dst=192.168.1.2 sport=38925 dport=8000 [UNREPLIED] src=192.168.1.2 dst=192.168.1.100 sport=8000 dport=38925 However, this is a problem for the iptables' CT target event filtering which will not work in this case since the conntrack template will not be there for the new session. To fix this, we reassign the conntrack template to the packet if we return NF_REPEAT. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
