2006-04-26[PATCH] Add support for the sys_vmsplice syscallJens Axboe
sys_splice() moves data to/from pipes with a file input/output. sys_vmsplice() moves data to a pipe, with the input being a user address range instead. This uses an approach suggested by Linus, where we can hold partial ranges inside the pages[] map. Hopefully this will be useful for network receive support as well.

2006-04-26[fuse] fix race between checking and setting file->private_dataMiklos Szeredi
BKL does not protect against races if the task may sleep between checking and setting a value. So move checking of file->private_data near to setting it in fuse_fill_super(). Found by Al Viro. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
2006-04-26[fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end(), try #2Miklos Szeredi
A deadlock was possible, when the last reference to the superblock was held due to a background request containing a file reference. Releasing the file would release the vfsmount which in turn would release the superblock. Since sbput_sem is held during the fput() and fuse_put_super() tries to acquire this same semaphore, a deadlock results. The solution is to move the fput() outside the region protected by sbput_sem.

2006-04-26Revert "[fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end()"Miklos Szeredi
This reverts 73ce8355c243a434524a34c05cc417dd0467996e commit. It was wrong, because it didn't take into account the requirement, that iput() for background requests must be performed synchronously with ->put_super(), otherwise active inodes may remain after unmount. The right solution is to keep the sbput_sem and perform iput() within the locked region, but move fput() outside sbput_sem. Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@szeredi.hu>
2006-04-26[PATCH] splice: fix offset problemsJens Axboe
Make the move_from_pipe() actors return number of bytes processed, then move_from_pipe() can decide more cleverly when to move on to the next buffer. This fixes problems with pipe offset and differing file offset. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@suse.de>

2006-04-25[SCSI] - fusion - mptfc bug fix's to prevent deadlock situationsMoore, Eric
mptbase.h bump version number to 3.03.09 remove unneeded flags define workq and remove old fc specific locks mptbase.c initialize new lock and don't initialize two removed locks mptscsih.c when firmware reports target is no longer there, return DID_REQUEUE for fc hosts so that i/o doesn't get killed until the transport has an opportunity to manage the loss via its dev loss timer when the "eh_abort" routine is called, check to see if the driver has the command or not before looking to see if a reset is pending. James Smart and I talked about this and believe that the API for this routine is: if driver doesn't have command, return SUCCESS. This change helps prevent a target from being taken offline. SUCCESS is returned because it's likely that the command completed after error recovery timed it out but before it could be aborted. provide a routine to queue work to newly created workq, and use it. remove "ioc" from mptscsih_abort() it was only used one time. the other references were via hd->ioc, so I just moved it.... net change in references to ioc via hd->ioc is zero move hd->resetPending test and hd->timeouts increment to after the test for whether the command to be aborted remains known to the driver Make certain that the workq exists before queuing work to it. mptfc.c no longer need to lock rport data structures as I was able to single thread the code! I fixed up the debug code to eliminate compilation messages due to type mismatch in the printk. Got rid of some no longer needed rport flags. Initialize and destroy the workq used for the rescan work. simplify the logic regarding the increment of fc_rescan_work_count. use post increment and test for zero vs. pre increment and test for one; eliminate work_count variable: queue_work can be called with the work_lock held as it doesn't sleep Signed-off-by: Michael Reed <mdr@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Moore <Eric.Moore@lsil.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

2006-04-24[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: Fix module refcount dropping too farYasuyuki Kozakai
If nf_ct_l3proto_find_get() fails to get the refcount of nf_ct_l3proto_generic, nf_ct_l3proto_put() will drop the refcount too far. This gets rid of '.me = THIS_MODULE' of nf_ct_l3proto_generic so that nf_ct_l3proto_find_get() doesn't try to get refcount of it. It's OK because its symbol is usable until nf_conntrack.ko is unloaded. This also kills unnecessary NULL pointer check as well. __nf_ct_proto_find() allways returns non-NULL pointer.
