2008-05-16[PATCH] dup_fd() part 2Al Viro
use alloc_fdtable() instead of expand_files(), get rid of pointless grabbing newf->file_lock, kill magic in copy_fdtable() that used to be there only to skip copying when called from dup_fd(). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2008-05-16libertas: fix command timeout after firmware failureBrian Cavagnolo
This is a fix for OLPC ticket #6586: "SCAN command fails, timer doesn't fire". In fact, the timer was firing; the problem was that the dnld_sent state variable was not being updated after the timer expired, so lbs_execute_next_command was not being called.

2008-05-16mac80211: Add RTNL version of ieee80211_iterate_active_interfacesIvo van Doorn
Since commit e38bad4766a110b61fa6038f10be16ced8c6cc38 mac80211: make ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces not need rtnl rt2500usb and rt73usb broke down due to attempting register access in atomic context (which is not possible for USB hardware). This patch restores ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() to use RTNL lock, and provides the non-RTNL version under a new name: ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_atomic() So far only rt2x00 uses ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces(), and those drivers require the RTNL version of ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces(). Since they already call that function directly, this patch will automatically fix the USB rt2x00 drivers. v2: Rename ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_rtnl Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Acked-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

2008-05-16nfs/lsm: make NFSv4 set LSM mount optionsEric Paris
NFSv3 get_sb operations call into the LSM layer to set security options passed from userspace. NFSv4 hooks were not originally added since it was reasonably late in the merge window and NFSv3 was the only thing that had regressed (v4 has never supported any LSM options) This patch makes NFSv4 call into the LSM to set security options rather than just blindly dropping them with no notice to the user as happens today. This patch was tested in a simple NFSv4 environment with the context= option and appeared to work as expected.

2008-05-16NFSv4: Check the return value of decode_compound_hdr_arg()Trond Myklebust
If decode_compound_hdr_arg() returns a resource error, then we cannot proceed to process the callback. Return a 'GARBAGE_ARGS' rpc-level error to the caller instead. If, however, the minor version field is incorrect, then we need to propagate the resulting NFS4ERR_MINOR_VERS_MISMATCH error back as the compound status field (setting the nops field to 0). Finally, if encode_compound_hdr_res() returns an error, we need to return an RPC_SYSTEM_ERR to the caller. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-05-16NFS: Ensure that 'noac' and/or 'actimeo=0' turn off attribute cachingTrond Myklebust
Both the 'noac' and 'actimeo=0' mount options should ensure that attributes are not cached, however a bug in nfs_attribute_timeout() means that currently, the attributes may in fact get cached for up to one jiffy. This has been seen to cause corruption in some applications. The reason for the bug is that the time_in_range() test returns 'true' as long as the current time lies between nfsi->read_cache_jiffies and nfsi->read_cache_jiffies + nfsi->attrtimeo. In other words, if jiffies equals nfsi->read_cache_jiffies, then we still cache the attribute data. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2008-05-16sh: disable initrd defaults in .empty_zero_page.Paul Mundt
When using initramfs on systems that don't explicitly clear LOADER_TYPE, unpack_to_rootfs() tramples tramples the range with the defaults taken out of .empty_zero_page.

2008-05-15initcalls: Fix m68k build and possible buffer overflowCyrill Gorcunov
This patch fixes a build bug on m68k - gcc decides to emit a call to the strlen library function, which we don't implement. More importantly - my previous patch "init: don't lose initcall return values" (commit e662e1cfd434aa234b72fbc781f1d70211cb785b) had introduced potential buffer overflow by wrong calculation of string accumulator size. Use strlcat() instead, fixing both bugs. Many thanks Andreas Schwab and Geert Uytterhoeven for helping to catch and fix the bug.

2008-05-15[IA64] fix personality(PER_LINUX32) performance issueHuang, Xiaolan
The patch aims to fix a performance issue for the syscall personality(PER_LINUX32). On IA-64 box, the syscall personality (PER_LINUX32) has poor performance because it failed to find the Linux/x86 execution domain. Then it tried to load the kernel module however it failed always and it used the default execution domain PER_LINUX instead. Requesting kernel modules is very expensive. It caused the performance issue. (see the function lookup_exec_domain in kernel/exec_domain.c). To resolve the issue, execution domain Linux/x86 is always registered in initialization time for IA-64 architecture.
