these functions.  This should make it clear to any out of tree users that they

[PATCH] tty: update the tty layer to work with struct pid

Of kernel subsystems that work with pids the tty layer is probably the largest
consumer.  But it has the nice virtue that the assiation with a session only
lasts until the session leader exits.  Which means that no reference counting
is required.  So using struct pid winds up being a simple optimization to
avoid hash table lookups.

In the long term the use of pid_nr also ensures that when we have multiple pid
spaces mixed everything will work correctly.

[PATCH] pid: replace is_orphaned_pgrp with is_current_pgrp_orphaned

Every call to is_orphaned_pgrp passed in process_group(current) which is racy
with respect to another thread changing our process group.  It didn't bite us
because we were dealing with integers and the worse we would get would be a
stale answer.

In switching the checks to use struct pid to be a little more efficient and
prepare the way for pid namespaces this race became apparent.

So I simplified the calls to the more specialized is_current_pgrp_orphaned so
I didn't have to worry about making logic changes to avoid the race.

[PATCH] pid: make session_of_pgrp use struct pid instead of pid_t

To properly implement a pid namespace I need to deal exclusively in terms of
struct pid, because pid_t values become ambiguous.

To this end session_of_pgrp is transformed to take and return a struct pid
pointer.  To avoid the need to worry about reference counting I now require my
caller to hold the appropriate locks.  Leaving callers repsonsible for
increasing the reference count if they need access to the result outside of
the locks.

Since session_of_pgrp currently only has one caller and that caller simply
uses only test the result for equality with another process group, the locking
change means I don't actually have to acquire the tasklist_lock at all.

tiocspgrp is also modified to take and release the lock.  The logic there is a
little more complicated but nothing I won't need when I convert pgrp of a tty
to a struct pid pointer.

[PATCH] tty: make __proc_set_tty static

The aim of this patch set is to start wrapping up the struct pid conversions.
As such this patchset culminates with the removal of kill_pg, kill_pg_info,
__kill_pg_info, do_each_task_pid, and while_each_task_pid.

kill_proc, daemonize, and kernel_thread are still in my sights but there is
still work to get to them.

The first three are basic cleanups around disassociate_ctty, while working on
converting it I found several issues.  tty_old_pgrp can be a tricky concept to
wrap your head around.

 1 tty: Make __proc_set_tty static.
 2 tty: Clarify disassociate_ctty
 3 tty: Fix the locking for signal->session in disassociate_ctty

These just stop using the old helper functions.

 4 signal: Use kill_pgrp not kill_pg in the sunos compatibility code.
 5 signal: Rewrite kill_something_info so it uses newer helpers.

Then the grind to convert the tty layer and all of it's helper functions to
struct pid.

 6 pid: Make session_of_pgrp use struct pid instead of pid_t.
 7 pid: Use struct pid for talking about process groups in exit.c
 8 pid: Replace is_orphaned_pgrp with is_current_pgrp_orphaned
 9 tty: Update the tty layer to work with struct pid.

A final helper function update.

10 pid: Replace do/while_each_task_pid with do/while_each_pid_task

And the removal of the functions that are now unused.
11 pid: Remove now unused do_each_task_pid and while_each_task_pid
12 pid: Remove the now unused kill_pg kill_pg_info and __kill_pg_info

All of these should be fairly simple and to the point.

This patch:

Currently all users of __proc_set_tty are in tty_io.c so make the function
static.

[PATCH] RTC gets sysfs wakealarm attribute

This adds a new "wakealarm" sysfs attribute to RTC class devices which support
alarm operations and are wakeup-capable:

 - It reads as either empty, or the scheduled alarm time as seconds
   since the POSIX epoch.  (That time may already have passed, since
   nothing currently enforces one-shot alarm semantics.)

 - It can be written with an alarm time in the future, again seconds
   since the POSIX epoch, which enables the alarm.

 - It can be written with an alarm time not in the future (such as 0,
   the start of the POSIX epoch) to disable the alarm.

Usage examples (some need GNU date) after "cd /sys/class/rtc/rtcN":

    alarm after 10 minutes:
# echo $(( $(cat since_epoch) + 10 * 60 )) > wakealarm
    alarm tuesday evening 10pm:
# date -d '10pm tuesday' "+%s" > wakealarm
    disable alarm:
     # echo 0 > wakealarm

This resembles the /proc/acpi/alarm file in that nothing happens when the
alarm triggers ...  except possibly waking the system from sleep.  It's also
like that in a nasty way: not much can be done to prevent one task from
clobbering another task's alarm settings.

It differs from that file in that there's no in-kernel date parser.

Note that a few RTCs ignore rtc_wkalrm.enabled when setting alarms, or aren't
set up correctly, so they won't yet behave with this attribute.

argument (the spi_transfer) is NULL.  Tested together with the other

[PATCH] FS: speed up rw_verify_area()

oprofile hunting showed a stall in rw_verify_area(), because of triple
indirection and potential cache misses.
(file->f_path.dentry->d_inode->i_flock)

By moving initialization of 'struct inode' pointer before the pos/count
sanity tests, we allow the compiler and processor to perform two loads by
anticipation, reducing stall, without prefetch() hints.  Even x86 arch has
enough registers to not use temporary variables and not increase text size.

I validated this patch running a bench and studied oprofile changes, and
absolute perf of the test program.

Results of my epoll_pipe_bench (source available on request) on a Pentium-M
1.6 GHz machine

Before :
# ./epoll_pipe_bench -l 30 -t 20
Avg: 436089 evts/sec read_count=8843037 write_count=8843040 21.218390 samples

[PATCH] ipc: save the ipc namespace while reading proc files

The problem we were assuming that current->nsproxy->ipc_ns would never

this can change with both unshare and by passing the file descriptor to
another process that assumption is occasionally wrong.

Therefore this patch causes /proc/sysvipc/* to cache the namespace and
increment it's count when we open the file and to decrement the count when
we close the file, ensuring consistent operation with no surprises.

[PATCH] kernel: shut up the IRQ mismatch messages

The problem is various drivers legally validly and sensibly try to claim
IRQs but the kernel insists on vomiting forth a giant irrelevant debugging
spew when the types clash.

Edit kernel/irq/manage.c go down to mismatch: in setup_irq() and ifdef out
the if clause that checks for mismatches.  It'll then just do the right
thing and work sanely.

For the current -mm kernel this will do the trick (and moves it into shared
irq debugging as in debug mode the info spew is useful).  I've had a
variant of this in my private tree for some time as I got fed up on the
mess on boxes where old legacy IRQs get reused.

[PATCH] inotify: read return val fix

Fix for inotify read bug (bugzilla.kernel.org #6999)

Problem Description:
When reading from an inotify device with an insufficient sized buffer, read(2)
will return 0 with no errno set. This is because of an logically incorrect
action from the user program thus should return an more logical value. My
suggestion is return -EINVAL as for bind(2).

This patch is based on the proposal from Ryan <wolf0403@hotmail.com>, and
feedback from John McCutchan <john@johnmccutchan.com>.

Return -EINVAL if we have not passed in enough buffer space to read a single
inotify event, rather than 0 which indicates that there is nothing to read.

[PATCH] Fix d_path for lazy unmounts

Here is a bugfix to d_path.

First, when d_path() hits a lazily unmounted mount point, it tries to
prepend the name of the lazily unmounted dentry to the path name.  It gets
this wrong, and also overwrites the slash that separates the name from the
following pathname component.  This is demonstrated by the attached test
case, which prints "getcwd returned d_path-bugsubdir" with the bug.  The
correct result would be "getcwd returned d_path-bug/subdir".

It could be argued that the name of the root dentry should not be part of
the result of d_path in the first place.  On the other hand, what the
unconnected namespace was once reachable as may provide some useful hints
to users, and so that seems okay.

Second, it isn't always possible to tell from the __d_path result whether
the specified root and rootmnt (i.e., the chroot) was reached: lazy
unmounts of bind mounts will produce a path that does start with a
non-slash so we can tell from that, but other lazy unmounts will produce a
path that starts with a slash, just like "ordinary" paths.

The attached patch cleans up __d_path() to fix the bug with overlapping
pathname components.  It also adds a @fail_deleted argument, which allows
to get rid of some of the mess in sys_getcwd().  Grabbing the dcache_lock
can then also be moved into __d_path().  The patch also makes sure that
paths will only start with a slash for paths which are connected to the
root and rootmnt.

The @fail_deleted argument could be added to d_path() as well: this would
allow callers to recognize deleted files, without having to resort to the
ambiguous check for the " (deleted)" string at the end of the pathnames.
This is not currently done, but it might be worthwhile.

[PATCH] Make XFS use BH_Unwritten and BH_Delay correctly

Don't hide buffer_unwritten behind buffer_delay() and remove the hack that
clears unexpected buffer_unwritten() states now that it can't happen.

[PATCH] Make BH_Unwritten a first class bufferhead flag V2

Currently, XFS uses BH_PrivateStart for flagging unwritten extent state in a
bufferhead.  Recently, I found the long standing mmap/unwritten extent
conversion bug, and it was to do with partial page invalidation not clearing
the unwritten flag from bufferheads attached to the page but beyond EOF.  See
here for a full explaination:

http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2006-12/msg00196.html

The solution I have checked into the XFS dev tree involves duplicating code
from block_invalidatepage to clear the unwritten flag from the bufferhead(s),
and then calling block_invalidatepage() to do the rest.

Christoph suggested that this would be better solved by pushing the unwritten
flag into the common buffer head flags and just adding the call to
discard_buffer():

http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2006-12/msg00239.html

The following patch makes BH_Unwritten a first class citizen.

This patch contains two fixes for RapisIO enumeration logic:

1. Fix enumeration in configurations with multiple switches. The patch adds:

   a. Enumeration of an empty switch.  Empty switch is a switch that
      does not have any endpoint devices attached to it (except host device
      or previous switch in a chain).  New code assigns a phony destination
      ID associated with the switch and sets up corresponding routes.

   b. Adds a second pass to the enumeration to setup routes to
      devices discovered after switch was scanned.

2. Fix enumeration failure when riohdid parameter has non-zero value.
   Current version fails to setup response path to the host when it has
   destination ID other that 0.
