[PATCH] Remove race between con_open and con_close
[ Same race and same patch also by Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> ]
I have a laptop (G3 powerbook) which will pretty reliably hit a race
between con_open and con_close late in the boot process and oops in
vt_ioctl due to tty->driver_data being NULL.
What happens is this: process A opens /dev/tty6; it comes into
con_open() (drivers/char/vt.c) and assign a non-NULL value to
tty->driver_data. Then process A closes that and concurrently process
B opens /dev/tty6. Process A gets through con_close() and clears
tty->driver_data, since tty->count == 1. However, before process A
can decrement tty->count, we switch to process B (e.g. at the
down(&tty_sem) call at drivers/char/tty_io.c line 1626).
So process B gets to run and comes into con_open with tty->count == 2,
as tty->count is incremented (in init_dev) before con_open is called.
Because tty->count != 1, we don't set tty->driver_data. Then when the
process tries to do anything with that fd, it oopses.
The simple and effective fix for this is to test tty->driver_data
rather than tty->count in con_open. The testing and setting of
tty->driver_data is serialized with respect to the clearing of
tty->driver_data in con_close by the console_sem. We can't get a
situation where con_open sees tty->driver_data != NULL and then
con_close on a different fd clears tty->driver_data, because
tty->count is incremented before con_open is called. Thus this patch
eliminates the race, and in fact with this patch my laptop doesn't
oops.

[PATCH] Fix oops in sysfs_hash_and_remove_file()
The problem arises if an entity in sysfs is created and removed without
ever having been made completely visible. In SCSI this is triggered by
removing a device while it's initialising.
The problem appears to be that because it was never made visible in sysfs,
the sysfs dentry has a null d_inode which oopses when a reference is made
to it. The solution is simply to check d_inode and assume the object was
never made visible (and thus doesn't need deleting) if it's NULL.

[PATCH] Fix oops in fs/locks.c on close of file with pending locks
The recent change to locks_remove_flock code in fs/locks.c changes how
byte range locks are removed from closing files, which shows up a bug in
cifs.
The assumption in the cifs code was that the close call sent to the
server would remove any pending locks on the server on this file, but
that is no longer safe as the fs/locks.c code on the client wants unlock
of 0 to PATH_MAX to remove all locks (at least from this client, it is
not possible AFAIK to remove all locks from other clients made to the
server copy of the file).
Note that cifs locks are different from posix locks - and it is not
possible to map posix locks perfectly on the wire yet, due to
restrictions of the cifs network protocol, even to Samba without adding
a new request type to the network protocol (which we plan to do for
Samba 3.0.21 within a few months), but the local client will have the
correct, posix view, of the lock in most cases.
The correct fix for cifs for this would involve a bigger change than I
would like to do this late in the 2.6.13-rc cycle - and would involve
cifs keeping track of all unmerged (uncoalesced) byte range locks for
each remote inode and scanning that list to remove locks that intersect
or fall wholly within the range - locks that intersect may have to be
reaquired with the smaller, remaining range.

[PATCH] ppc64: Export machine_power_off for therm_pm72 module
This patch puts back the export of machine_power_off() that was removed
by some janitor as it's used for emergency shutdown by the G5 thermal

is debatable and a post-2.6.13 decision. In the meantime, please commit

[PATCH] cpu_exclusive sched domains build fix
As reported by Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>, the previous patch
"cpu_exclusive sched domains fix" broke the ppc64 build with
CONFIC_CPUSET, yielding error messages:
kernel/cpuset.c: In function 'update_cpu_domains':
kernel/cpuset.c:648: error: invalid lvalue in unary '&'
kernel/cpuset.c:648: error: invalid lvalue in unary '&'
On some arch's, the node_to_cpumask() is a function, returning
a cpumask_t. But the for_each_cpu_mask() requires an lvalue mask.
The following patch fixes this build failure by making a copy
of the cpumask_t on the stack.

[PATCH] cpu_exclusive sched domains on partial nodes temp fix
This keeps the kernel/cpuset.c routine update_cpu_domains() from
invoking the sched.c routine partition_sched_domains() if the cpuset in
question doesn't fall on node boundaries.
I have boot tested this on an SN2, and with the help of a couple of ad
hoc printk's, determined that it does indeed avoid calling the
partition_sched_domains() routine on partial nodes.
I did not directly verify that this avoids setting up bogus sched
domains or avoids the oops that Hawkes saw.
This patch imposes a silent artificial constraint on which cpusets can
be used to define dynamic sched domains.
This patch should allow proceeding with this new feature in 2.6.13 for
the configurations in which it is useful (node alligned sched domains)
while avoiding trying to setup sched domains in the less useful cases
that can cause the kernel corruption and oops.

[PATCH] zd1201 kmalloc size fix
Noticed by Coverity checker.
(akpm: I stole this from Greg's tree and used the (IMO) tidier sizeof(*p)
construct).

[PATCH] md: make sure resync gets started when array starts.
We weren't actually waking up the md thread after setting
MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED when assembling an array, so it is possible to lose a
race and not actually start resync.
So add a call to md_wakeup_thread, and while we are at it, remove all the
"if (mddev->thread)" guards as md_wake_thread does its own checking.

[PATCH] preempt race in getppid
With CONFIG_PREEMPT && !CONFIG_SMP, it's possible for sys_getppid to
return a bogus value if the parent's task_struct gets reallocated after
current->group_leader->real_parent is read:
asmlinkage long sys_getppid(void)
{
int pid;
struct task_struct *me = current;
struct task_struct *parent;
parent = me->group_leader->real_parent;
RACE HERE => for (;;) {
pid = parent->tgid;
#ifdef CONFIG_SMP
{
struct task_struct *old = parent;
/*
* Make sure we read the pid before re-reading the
* parent pointer:
*/
smp_rmb();
parent = me->group_leader->real_parent;
if (old != parent)
continue;
}
#endif
break;
}
return pid;
}
If the process gets preempted at the indicated point, the parent process
can go ahead and call exit() and then get wait()'d on to reap its
task_struct. When the preempted process gets resumed, it will not do any
further checks of the parent pointer on !CONFIG_SMP: it will read the
bad pid and return.
So, the same algorithm used when SMP is enabled should be used when
preempt is enabled, which will recheck ->real_parent in this case.
