2009-07-22fbmon: work around compiler bug in gcc-2.4.2Linus Torvalds
There's some odd bug in gcc-4.2 where it miscompiles a simple loop whent he loop counter is of type 'unsigned char' and it should count to 128. The compiler will incorrectly decide that a trivial loop like this: unsigned char i, ... for (i = 0; i < 128; i++) { .. is endless, and will compile it to a single instruction that just branches to itself. This was triggered by the addition of '-fno-strict-overflow', and we could play games with compiler versions and go back to '-fwrapv' instead, but the trivial way to avoid it is to just make the loop induction variable be an 'int' instead. Thanks to Krzysztof Oledzki for reporting and testing and to Troy Moure for digging through assembler differences and finding it.

2009-07-22softirq: introduce tasklet_hrtimer infrastructurePeter Zijlstra
commit ca109491f (hrtimer: removing all ur callback modes) moved all hrtimer callbacks into hard interrupt context when high resolution timers are active. That breaks code which relied on the assumption that the callback happens in softirq context. Provide a generic infrastructure which combines tasklets and hrtimers together to provide an in-softirq hrtimer experience.

2009-07-22Btrfs: make sure all dirty blocks are written at commit timeYan Zheng
Write dirty block groups may allocate new block, and so may add new delayed back ref. btrfs_run_delayed_refs may make some block groups dirty. commit_cowonly_roots does not handle the recursion properly, and some dirty blocks can be left unwritten at commit time. This patch moves btrfs_run_delayed_refs into the loop that writes dirty block groups, and makes the code not break out of the loop until there are no dirty block groups or delayed back refs.

2009-07-22Btrfs: fix locking issue in btrfs_find_next_keyYan Zheng
When walking up the tree, btrfs_find_next_key assumes the upper level tree block is properly locked. This isn't always true even path->keep_locks is 1. This is because btrfs_find_next_key may advance path->slots[] several times instead of only once. When 'path->slots[level] >= btrfs_header_nritems(path->nodes[level])' is found, we can't guarantee the original value of 'path->slots[level]' is 'btrfs_header_nritems(path->nodes[level]) - 1'. If it's not, the tree block at 'level + 1' isn't locked. This patch fixes the issue by explicitly checking the locking state, re-searching the tree if it's not locked.

2009-07-21NFSv4: Fix a problem whereby a buggy server can oops the kernelTrond Myklebust
We just had a case in which a buggy server occasionally returns the wrong attributes during an OPEN call. While the client does catch this sort of condition in nfs4_open_done(), and causes the nfs4_atomic_open() to return -EISDIR, the logic in nfs_atomic_lookup() is broken, since it causes a fallback to an ordinary lookup instead of just returning the error. When the buggy server then returns a regular file for the fallback lookup, the VFS allows the open, and bad things start to happen, since the open file doesn't have any associated NFSv4 state. The fix is firstly to return the EISDIR/ENOTDIR errors immediately, and secondly to ensure that we are always careful when dereferencing the nfs_open_context state pointer.

2009-07-21ocfs2: Fix deadlock on umountJan Kara
In commit ea455f8ab68338ba69f5d3362b342c115bea8e13, we moved the dentry lock put process into ocfs2_wq. This causes problems during umount because ocfs2_wq can drop references to inodes while they are being invalidated by invalidate_inodes() causing all sorts of nasty things (invalidate_inodes() ending in an infinite loop, "Busy inodes after umount" messages etc.). We fix the problem by stopping ocfs2_wq from doing any further releasing of inode references on the superblock being unmounted, wait until it finishes the current round of releasing and finally cleaning up all the references in dentry_lock_list from ocfs2_put_super().

This is not a valid regulatory domain as such these users were unable to use these devices. Since this doesn't seem to be a device EEPROM corruption we must treat it specially.

First we need a method to tell fsnotify_create_event() to use GFP_NOFS and second we need to stop using one global IN_IGNORED event and allocate them one at a time.

2009-07-21fsnotify: fix inotify tail drop check with path entriesEric Paris
fsnotify drops new events when they are the same as the tail event on the queue to be sent to userspace. The problem is that if the event comes with a path we forget to break out of the switch statement and fall into the code path which matches on events that do not have any type of file backed information (things like IN_UNMOUNT and IN_Q_OVERFLOW). The problem is that this code thinks all such events should be dropped. Fix is to add a break. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
2009-07-21inotify: check filename before dropping repeat eventsEric Paris
inotify drops events if the last event on the queue is the same as the current event. But it does 2 things wrong. First it is comparing old->inode with new->inode. But after an event if put on the queue the ->inode is no longer allowed to be used. It's possible between the last event and this new event the inode could be reused and we would falsely match the inode's memory address between two differing events. The second problem is that when a file is removed fsnotify is passed the negative dentry for the removed object rather than the postive dentry from immediately before the removal. This mean the (broken) inotify tail drop code was matching the NULL ->inode of differing events. The fix is to check the file name which is stored with events when doing the tail drop instead of wrongly checking the address of the stored ->inode.

inotify_update_watch could leave things in a horrid state on a number of error paths. We could try to remove idr entries that didn't exist, we could send an IN_IGNORED to userspace for watches that don't exist, and a bit of other stupidity. Clean these up by doing the idr addition before we put the mark on the inode since we can clean that up on error and getting off the inode's mark list is hard.

2009-07-21inotify: do not leak inode marks in inotify_add_watchEric Paris
inotify_add_watch had a couple of problems. The biggest being that if inotify_add_watch was called on the same inode twice (to update or change the event mask) a refence was taken on the original inode mark by fsnotify_find_mark_entry but was not being dropped at the end of the inotify_add_watch call. Thus if inotify_rm_watch was called although the mark was removed from the inode, the refcnt wouldn't hit zero and we would leak memory.

2009-07-21ath9k: Tune ANI function processing on AP mode during ANI resetLuis R. Rodriguez
For AP mode we must tune ANI specially for 2 GHz and for 5 GHz. We mask in only the flags we want to toggle on ath9k_hw_ani_control() through the ah->ani_function bitmask, this will take care of ignoring changes during ANI reset which we were disabling before.

2009-07-21rt2x00: Fix chipset detection for rt2500usbAndy Whitcroft
The commit below changed the semantics of rt2x00_check_rev so that it no longer checked the bottom 4 bits of the rev were non-zero. During that conversion this part of the check was not propogated to the rt2500usb initialisation. commit 358623c22c9fd837b3b1b444377037f72553dc9f Author: Ivo van Doorn <ivdoorn@gmail.com> Date: Tue May 5 19:46:08 2009 +0200 rt2x00: Simplify rt2x00_check_rev Without this check rt73 devices are miss recognised as rt2500 devices and two drivers are loaded. Preventing the device being used. Reinstate this check. Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2009-07-21rtl8187: Fix for kernel oops when unloading with LEDs enabledLarry Finger
When rtl8187 is unloaded and CONFIG_RTL8187_LEDS is set, the kernel may oops when the module is unloaded as the workqueue for led_on was not being cancelled. This patch fixes the problem reported in http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=124742957615781&w=2.
