We should not fiddle with speed and cflags in .dtr_rts hook. Actually
we might not have tty at that moment already.

So move the console cflag copy and speed setup into uart_startup.
Actually the speed setup is already there, but we need to call it
unconditionally (uart_startup is called from uart_open with hw_init =
0).

This means we move uart_change_speed before dtr/rts setup in .dtr_rts.
But this should not matter as the setup should be called after
uart_change_speed anyway.
Before:                             After:
dtr/rts setup (dtr_rts)             uart_change_speed (startup)
uart_change_speed (update_termios)  dtr/rts setup (dtr_rts)
dtr/rts setup (update_termios)      dtr/rts setup (update_termios)

Linus Torvalds [Mon, 18 Apr 2011 17:35:30 +0000 (10:35 -0700)]
next_pidmap: fix overflow condition

next_pidmap() just quietly accepted whatever 'last' pid that was passed
in, which is not all that safe when one of the users is /proc.

Admittedly the proc code should do some sanity checking on the range
(and that will be the next commit), but that doesn't mean that the
helper functions should just do that pidmap pointer arithmetic without
checking the range of its arguments.

So clamp 'last' to PID_MAX_LIMIT.  The fact that we then do "last+1"
doesn't really matter, the for-loop does check against the end of the
pidmap array properly (it's only the actual pointer arithmetic overflow
case we need to worry about, and going one bit beyond isn't going to
overflow).

to decrease between reads on POWER7.  This causes a problem with the way that
counters are updated.  Delta calues are calculated in a 64 bit value and the

with a very large positive value added to the kernel counters.  This patch
protects against this by skipping the update if the delta would be negative.
This can lead to a lack of precision in the coutner values, but from my testing
the value is typcially fewer than 10 samples at a time.

Round robin assignment doesn't work because init_numa_sched_groups_power()
assumes all logical cpus in the same physical cpu share the same node
(then it only accounts for group_first_cpu()), and the simple round robin
breaks the above assumption.

futex: Set FLAGS_HAS_TIMEOUT during futex_wait restart setup

The FLAGS_HAS_TIMEOUT flag was not getting set, causing the restart_block to
restart futex_wait() without a timeout after a signal.

Commit b41277dc7a18ee332d in 2.6.38 introduced the regression by accidentally
removing the the FLAGS_HAS_TIMEOUT assignment from futex_wait() during the setup
of the restart block. Restore the originaly behavior.

13 years agovfs: fix incorrect dentry_update_name_case() BUG_ON() test

vfs: fix incorrect dentry_update_name_case() BUG_ON() test

The case we should be verifying when updating the dentry name is that
the _parent_ inode (the directory) semaphore is held, not the semaphore
for the dentry itself.  It's the directory locking that rename and
readdir() etc all care about.

The comment just above even says so - but then the BUG_ON() still
checked the dentry inode itself.

Very few people noticed, because this helper function really isn't used
for very much, so you had to be using ncpfs to ever hit it.

I think I should just remove the BUG_ON (the function really has just
one user), but let's run with it fixed for a while before getting rid of
it entirely.

oom-kill: remove boost_dying_task_prio()

This is an almost-revert of commit 93b43fa ("oom: give the dying task a
higher priority").

That commit dramatically improved oom killer logic when a fork-bomb
occurs.  But I've found that it has nasty corner case.  Now cpu cgroup has
strange default RT runtime.  It's 0!  That said, if a process under cpu
cgroup promote RT scheduling class, the process never run at all.

If an admin inserts a !RT process into a cpu cgroup by setting
rtruntime=0, usually it runs perfectly because a !RT task isn't affected
by the rtruntime knob.  But if it promotes an RT task via an explicit
setscheduler() syscall or an OOM, the task can't run at all.  In short,
the oom killer doesn't work at all if admins are using cpu cgroup and don't
touch the rtruntime knob.

Eventually, kernel may hang up when oom kill occur.  I and the original
author Luis agreed to disable this logic.

vmscan: all_unreclaimable() use zone->all_unreclaimable as a name

all_unreclaimable check in direct reclaim has been introduced at 2.6.19
by following commit.

2006 Sep 25; commit 408d8544; oom: use unreclaimable info

And it went through strange history. firstly, following commit broke
the logic unintentionally.

2008 Apr 29; commit a41f24ea; page allocator: smarter retry of
      costly-order allocations

Two years later, I've found obvious meaningless code fragment and
restored original intention by following commit.

2010 Jun 04; commit bb21c7ce; vmscan: fix do_try_to_free_pages()
      return value when priority==0

But, the logic didn't works when 32bit highmem system goes hibernation
and Minchan slightly changed the algorithm and fixed it .

2010 Sep 22: commit d1908362: vmscan: check all_unreclaimable
      in direct reclaim path

But, recently, Andrey Vagin found the new corner case. Look,

struct zone {
  ..
        int                     all_unreclaimable;
  ..
        unsigned long           pages_scanned;
  ..
}

zone->all_unreclaimable and zone->pages_scanned are neigher atomic
variables nor protected by lock.  Therefore zones can become a state of
zone->page_scanned=0 and zone->all_unreclaimable=1.  In this case, current
all_unreclaimable() return false even though zone->all_unreclaimabe=1.

This resulted in the kernel hanging up when executing a loop of the form

1. fork
2. mmap
3. touch memory
4. read memory
5. munmmap

as described in
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1348725#1348725

Is this ignorable minor issue?  No.  Unfortunately, x86 has very small dma
zone and it become zone->all_unreclamble=1 easily.  and if it become
all_unreclaimable=1, it never restore all_unreclaimable=0.  Why?  if
all_unreclaimable=1, vmscan only try DEF_PRIORITY reclaim and
a-few-lru-pages>>DEF_PRIORITY always makes 0.  that mean no page scan at
all!

Eventually, oom-killer never works on such systems.  That said, we can't
use zone->pages_scanned for this purpose.  This patch restore
all_unreclaimable() use zone->all_unreclaimable as old.  and in addition,
to add oom_killer_disabled check to avoid reintroduce the issue of commit
d1908362 ("vmscan: check all_unreclaimable in direct reclaim path").
