2010-05-17cifs: don't update uniqueid in cifs_fattr_to_inodeJeff Layton
We use this value to find an inode within the hash bucket, so we can't change this without re-hashing the inode. For now, treat this value as immutable. Eventually, we should probably use an inode number change on a path based operation to indicate that the lookup cache is invalid, but that's a bit more code to deal with.

What a mess. It turns out this bad code is a result of us defining atomic_t as a volatile int. We removed the volatile attribute from the powerpc atomic_t definition years ago, but commit ea435467500612636f8f4fb639ff6e76b2496e4b (atomic_t: unify all arch definitions) added it back in.

2010-05-15 MIPS FPU emulator: allow Cause bits of FCSR to be writeable by ctc1Shane McDonald
In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction. In odd corner cases, this can cause problems. For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred. In this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately. The solution is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of the FCSR register to be writeable. This is the behaviour of the hardware that the code is emulating. This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes to Kevin Kissell. In Kevin's words: I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op: case of the emulator. The Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction. I think that actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would work a good deal better. At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of the architecturally defined FPU. If I wanted to be really, really pedantic (which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't necessarily writable.

2010-05-15Fix the regression created by "set S_DEAD on unlink()..." commitAl Viro
1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention; we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on. To fix it right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and i_mutex on the inode in question. Set it (with dont_mount(dentry)) in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD. Setting S_DEAD is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race prevention. 2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint. Fixed. 3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong) one. Noticed and fixed.

2010-05-15profile: fix stats and data leakageHugh Dickins
If the kernel is large or the profiling step small, /proc/profile leaks data and readprofile shows silly stats, until readprofile -r has reset the buffer: clear the prof_buffer when it is vmalloc()ed.
