2009-02-11Do not account for hugetlbfs quota at mmap() time if mapping [SHM|MAP]_NORESERVEMel Gorman
Commit 5a6fe125950676015f5108fb71b2a67441755003 brought hugetlbfs more in line with the core VM by obeying VM_NORESERVE and not reserving hugepages for both shared and private mappings when [SHM|MAP]_NORESERVE are specified. However, it is still taking filesystem quota unconditionally. At fault time, if there are no reserves and attempt is made to allocate the page and account for filesystem quota. If either fail, the fault fails. The impact is that quota is getting accounted for twice. This patch partially reverts 5a6fe125950676015f5108fb71b2a67441755003.

2009-02-11iwlwifi: fix suspend/resume and its usage of pci saved stateReinette Chatre
Here we do two things: First, revert "iwlwifi: save PCI state before suspend, restore after resume". That misguided patch led to being unable to use iwlwifi devices after resume. Next, indicate to PCI driver that the saved PCI state is valid during suspend. We restore PCI state and enable the device when network interface is created, similarly PCI state is saved and the device is disabled when network interface is removed. Thus, when .suspend is called the PCI state is saved and device is disabled. This is the case even if an interface is never created as PCI state is saved and device disabled during .probe. PCI driver assumes PCI state is saved in .suspend. Saving the state at this time will save state of disabled device and thus cause problems during resume (resuming a disabled device). We thus indicate directly to PCI driver that current PCI saved state is valid.

Ptrace_detach() races with __ptrace_unlink() if the traced task is reaped while detaching. This might cause a double-free of the BTS buffer. Change the ptrace_detach() path to only do the memory accounting in ptrace_bts_detach() and leave the buffer free to ptrace_bts_untrace() which will be called from __ptrace_unlink().

In dasd_device_set_timer and dasd_block_set_timer we interpret the return value of mod_timer in a wrong way. If the timer expires in the small window between our check of timer_pending and the call to mod_timer, then the timer will be set, mod_timer returns zero and we will call add_timer for a timer that is already pending. As del_timer and mod_timer do all the necessary checking themselves, we can simplify our code and remove the race a the same time.

2009-02-11ptrace, x86: fix the usage of ptrace_fork()Oleg Nesterov
I noticed by pure accident we have ptrace_fork() and friends. This was added by "x86, bts: add fork and exit handling", commit bf53de907dfdaac178c92d774aae7370d7b97d20. I can't test this, ds_request_bts() returns -EOPNOTSUPP, but I strongly believe this needs the fix. I think something like this program int main(void) { int pid = fork(); if (!pid) { ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0, NULL, NULL); kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP); fork(); } else { struct ptrace_bts_config bts = { .flags = PTRACE_BTS_O_ALLOC, .size = 4 * 4096, }; wait(NULL); ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, NULL, PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK); ptrace(PTRACE_BTS_CONFIG, pid, &bts, sizeof(bts)); ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, NULL, NULL); sleep(1); } return 0; } should crash the kernel. If the task is traced by its natural parent ptrace_reparented() returns 0 but we should clear ->btsxxx anyway.

2009-02-11ALSA: hda - enable HDMI audio pin out at module loading timeWu Fengguang
We found that enabling/disabling HDMI audio pin out at stream start/stop time will kill the leading 500ms or so sound samples. Avoid this by enabling pin out once and for ever at module loading time. The leading ~500ms audio samples will still be lost when switching from X-channel playback to Y-channel playback where X != Y. However there's no much we can do about it: the audio infoframe has to change and it looks like either G45 or YAMAHA requires some time to switch the configuration.

In theory that mapping should be derived from its speaker configurations contained in its ELD. However we currently cannot get ELD in console before the KMS functionalities are ready. This is a more or less general issue at least in the near future. As a workaround, we propose to allow playback of mult-channel audio when ELD is not available.

2009-02-10sunhme: Fix Quattro HME irq registration on proble failuresMeelis Roos
Currently, the sunhme driver installs SBus Quattro interrupt handler when at least one HME card was initialized correctly and at least one Quattro card is present. This breaks when a Quattro card fails initialization for whatever reason - IRQ is registered and OOPS happens when it fires. The solution, as suggested by David Miller, was to keep track which cards of the Quattro bundles have been initialized, and request/free the Quattro IRQ only when all four devices have been successfully initialized. The patch only touches SBus initialization - PCI init already resets the card pointer to NULL on init failure. The patch has been tested on Sun E3500 with SBus and PCI single HME cards and one PCI Quattro HME card in a situation where any PCI card failed init when the SBus routines tried to init them by mistake. Additionally it replaces Quattro request_irq panic with error return - if this card fails to work, at least let the others work. Tested on E450 with PCI HME and PCI Quad HME.

2009-02-10Do not account for the address space used by hugetlbfs using VM_ACCOUNTMel Gorman
When overcommit is disabled, the core VM accounts for pages used by anonymous shared, private mappings and special mappings. It keeps track of VMAs that should be accounted for with VM_ACCOUNT and VMAs that never had a reserve with VM_NORESERVE. Overcommit for hugetlbfs is much riskier than overcommit for base pages due to contiguity requirements. It avoids overcommiting on both shared and private mappings using reservation counters that are checked and updated during mmap(). This ensures (within limits) that hugepages exist in the future when faults occurs or it is too easy to applications to be SIGKILLed. As hugetlbfs makes its own reservations of a different unit to the base page size, VM_ACCOUNT should never be set. Even if the units were correct, we would double account for the usage in the core VM and hugetlbfs. VM_NORESERVE may be set because an application can request no reserves be made for hugetlbfs at the risk of getting killed later. With commit fc8744adc870a8d4366908221508bb113d8b72ee, VM_NORESERVE and VM_ACCOUNT are getting unconditionally set for hugetlbfs-backed mappings. This breaks the accounting for both the core VM and hugetlbfs, can trigger an OOM storm when hugepage pools are too small lockups and corrupted counters otherwise are used. This patch brings hugetlbfs more in line with how the core VM treats VM_NORESERVE but prevents VM_ACCOUNT being set.

2009-02-10tracing, x86: fix fixup section to return to original codeSteven Rostedt
Impact: fix to prevent a kernel crash on fault If for some reason the pointer to the parent function on the stack takes a fault, the fix up code will not return back to the original faulting code. This can lead to unpredictable results and perhaps even a kernel panic. A fault should not happen, but if it does, we should simply disable the tracer, warn, and continue running the kernel. It should not lead to a kernel crash. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>
