2008-08-24mv643xx_eth: enforce multiple-of-8-bytes receive buffer size restrictionLennert Buytenhek
The mv643xx_eth hardware ignores the lower three bits of the buffer size field in receive descriptors, causing the reception of full-sized packets to fail at some MTUs. Fix this by rounding the size of allocated receive buffers up to a multiple of eight bytes. While we are at it, add a bit of extra space to each receive buffer so that we can handle multiple vlan tags on ingress. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com>
2008-08-24mv643xx_eth: fix NULL pointer dereference in rxq_process()Lennert Buytenhek
When we are low on memory, the assumption that every descriptor in the receive ring will have an skbuff associated with it does not hold. rxq_process() was assuming that if the receive descriptor it is working on is not owned by the hardware, it can safely be processed and handed to the networking stack. But a descriptor in the receive ring not being owned by the hardware can also happen when we are low on memory and did not manage to refill the receive ring fully. This patch changes rxq_process()'s bailout condition from "the first receive descriptor to be processed is owned by the hardware" to "the first receive descriptor to be processed is owned by the hardware OR the number of valid receive descriptors in the ring is zero".

Nicolas Pitre noted that mv643xx_eth_poll was incorrectly using non-IRQ-safe locks while checking whether to wake up the netdevice's transmit queue. Convert the locking to *_irq() variants, since we are running from softirq context where interrupts are enabled. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com>
2008-08-24mv643xx_eth: fix double add_timer() on the receive oom timerLennert Buytenhek
Commit 12e4ab79cd828563dc090d2117dc8626b344bc8f ("mv643xx_eth: be more agressive about RX refill") changed the condition for the receive out-of-memory timer to be scheduled from "the receive ring is empty" to "the receive ring is not full". This can lead to a situation where the receive out-of-memory timer is pending because a previous rxq_refill() didn't manage to refill the receive ring entirely as a result of being out of memory, and rxq_refill() is then called again as a side effect of a packet receive interrupt, and that rxq_refill() call then again does not succeed to refill the entire receive ring with fresh empty skbuffs because we are still out of memory, and then tries to call add_timer() on the already scheduled out-of-memory timer. This patch fixes this issue by changing the add_timer() call in rxq_refill() to a mod_timer() call. If the OOM timer was not already scheduled, this will behave as before, whereas if it was already scheduled, this patch will push back its firing time a bit, which is safe because we've (unsuccessfully) attempted to refill the receive ring just before we do this.

2008-08-24mv643xx_eth: fix NAPI 'rotting packet' issueLennert Buytenhek
When a receive interrupt occurs, mv643xx_eth would first process the receive descriptors and then ACK the receive interrupt, instead of the other way round. This would leave a small race window between processing the last receive descriptor and clearing the receive interrupt status in which a new packet could come in, which would then 'rot' in the receive ring until the next receive interrupt would come in. Fix this by ACKing (clearing) the receive interrupt condition before processing the receive descriptors. Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com>
2008-08-23ipv6: protocol for address routesStephen Hemminger
This fixes a problem spotted with zebra, but not sure if it is necessary a kernel problem. With IPV6 when an address is added to an interface, Zebra creates a duplicate RIB entry, one as a connected route, and other as a kernel route. When an address is added to an interface the RTN_NEWADDR message causes Zebra to create a connected route. In IPV4 when an address is added to an interface a RTN_NEWROUTE message is set to user space with the protocol RTPROT_KERNEL. Zebra ignores these messages, because it already has the connected route. The problem is that route created in IPV6 has route protocol == RTPROT_BOOT. Was this a design decision or a bug? This fixes it. Same patch applies to both net-2.6 and stable.

2008-08-20mm: xip/ext2 fix block allocation raceNick Piggin
XIP can call into get_xip_mem concurrently with the same file,offset with create=1. This usually maps down to get_block, which expects the page lock to prevent such a situation. This causes ext2 to explode for one reason or another. Serialise those calls for the moment. For common usages today, I suspect get_xip_mem rarely is called to create new blocks. In future as XIP technologies evolve we might need to look at which operations require scalability, and rework the locking to suit.

2008-08-20mm: xip fix fault vs sparse page invalidate raceNick Piggin
XIP has a race between sparse pages being inserted into page tables, and sparse pages being zapped when its time to put a non-sparse page in. What can happen is that a process can be left with a dangling sparse page in a MAP_SHARED mapping, while the rest of the world sees the non-sparse version. Ie. data corruption. Guard these operations with a seqlock, making fault-in-sparse-pages the slowpath, and try-to-unmap-sparse-pages the fastpath.

2008-08-20mm: dirty page tracking race fixNick Piggin
There is a race with dirty page accounting where a page may not properly be accounted for. clear_page_dirty_for_io() calls page_mkclean; then TestClearPageDirty. page_mkclean walks the rmaps for that page, and for each one it cleans and write protects the pte if it was dirty. It uses page_check_address to find the pte. That function has a shortcut to avoid the ptl if the pte is not present. Unfortunately, the pte can be switched to not-present then back to present by other code while holding the page table lock -- this should not be a signal for page_mkclean to ignore that pte, because it may be dirty. For example, powerpc64's set_pte_at will clear a previously present pte before setting it to the desired value. There may also be other code in core mm or in arch which do similar things. The consequence of the bug is loss of data integrity due to msync, and loss of dirty page accounting accuracy. XIP's __xip_unmap could easily also be unreliable (depending on the exact XIP locking scheme), which can lead to data corruption. Fix this by having an option to always take ptl to check the pte in page_check_address. It's possible to retain this optimization for page_referenced and try_to_unmap.

2008-08-20bootmem: fix aligning of node-relative indexes and offsetsJohannes Weiner
Absolute alignment requirements may never be applied to node-relative offsets. Andreas Herrmann spotted this flaw when a bootmem allocation on an unaligned node was itself not aligned because the combination of an unaligned node with an aligned offset into that node is not garuanteed to be aligned itself. This patch introduces two helper functions that align a node-relative index or offset with respect to the node's starting address so that the absolute PFN or virtual address that results from combining the two satisfies the requested alignment. Then all the broken ALIGN()s in alloc_bootmem_core() are replaced by these helpers.

2008-08-20rtc: fix double lock on UIE emulationAtsushi Nemoto
With commit 5ad31a575157147b43fa84ef1e21471661653878 ("rtc: remove BKL for ioctl()"), RTC_UIE_ON ioctl cause double lock on rtc->ops_lock. The ops_lock must not be held while set_uie() calls rtc_read_time() which takes the lock. Also clear_uie() does not need ops_lock. This patch fixes return value of RTC_UIE_OFF ioctl too.

2008-08-20binfmt_misc: fix false -ENOEXEC when coupled with other binary handlersPavel Emelyanov
In case the binfmt_misc binary handler is registered *before* the e.g. script one (when for example being compiled as a module) the following situation may occur: 1. user launches a script, whose interpreter is a misc binary; 2. the load_misc_binary sets the misc_bang and returns -ENOEVEC, since the binary is a script; 3. the load_script_binary loads one and calls for search_binary_hander to run the interpreter; 4. the load_misc_binary is called again, but refuses to load the binary due to misc_bang bit set. The fix is to move the misc_bang setting lower - prior to the actual call to the search_binary_handler.

2008-08-20nbd: fix memory leak of nbd_dev arraySven Wegener
We leak the memory allocated for the nbd_dev array at multiple places. Fix them by either adding a kfree() or by rearranging code to return before we allocate the memory.

2008-08-20mm: mminit_loglevel cannot be __meminitdata anymoreMarcin Slusarz
mminit_loglevel is now used from mminit_verify_zonelist <- build_all_zonelists <- 1. online_pages <- memory_block_action <- memory_block_change_state <- store_mem_state (sys handler) 2. numa_zonelist_order_handler (proc handler) so it cannot be annotated __meminit - drop it fixes following section mismatch warning: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x71628): Section mismatch in reference from the function mminit_verify_zonelist() to the variable .meminit.data:mminit_loglevel The function mminit_verify_zonelist() references the variable __meminitdata mminit_loglevel. This is often because mminit_verify_zonelist lacks a __meminitdata annotation or the annotation of mminit_loglevel is wrong.

2008-08-20mm: show free swap as signedHugh Dickins
Adjust <Alt><SysRq>m show_swap_cache_info() to show "Free swap" as a signed long: the signed format is preferable, because during swapoff nr_swap_pages can legitimately go negative, so makes more sense thus (it used to be shown redundantly, once as signed and once as unsigned).
