* [GFS2] Fix quota do_list operation hangAbhijith Das2007-10-102-1/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the filesystem part of the patches to fix this bz. There are additional userland patches (gfs2_quota, libgfs2) for the complete solution. This patch adds a new field qu_ll_next to the gfs2_quota structure. This field allows us to create linked lists of quotas in the ondisk quota inode. Instead of scanning through the entire sparse quota file for valid quotas, we can now simply walk through the user and group quota linked lists to perform the do_list operation.

* [GFS2] Force unstuff of hidden quota inodeAbhijith Das2007-10-101-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | This patch forcibly unstuffs (if stuffed) the hidden quota inode at the first availble opportunity. In any practical scenario the quota inode won't be stuffed, so this is ok to do. Unstuffing the quota inode allows us to ignore the case of a stuffed quota inode in gfs2_adjust_quota().

* [GFS2] Ensure journal file cache is flushed after recoveryBob Peterson2007-10-102-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is for bugzilla bug #248176: GFS2: invalid metadata block Patches 1 thru 3 were accepted upstream, but there were problems with 4 and 5. Those issues have been resolved and now the recovery tests are passing without errors. This code has gone through 41 * 3 successful gfs2 recovery tests before it hit an unrelated (openais) problem. I'm continuing to test it. This is a complete rewrite of patch 5 for bug #248176, written by Steve Whitehouse. This is referred to in the bugzilla record as "new 6" and "a different solution". The problem was that the journal inodes, although protected by a glock, were not synched with the other nodes because they don't use the inode glock synch operations (i.e. no "glops" were defined). Therefore, journal recovery on a journal-recovering node were causing the blocks to get out of sync with the node that was actually trying to use that journal as it comes back up from a reboot. There are two possible solutions: (1) To make the journals use the normal inode glock sync operations, or (2) To make the journal operations take effect immediately (i.e. no caching). Although option 1 works, it turns out to be a lot more code. Steve opted for option 2, which is much simpler and therefore less prone to regression errors.

* [GFS2] invalid metadata block - REVISEDBob Peterson2007-10-101-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is for bugzilla bug #248176: GFS2: invalid metadata block Patches 1 thru 3 were accepted upstream, but there were problems with 4 and 5.

This is a complete rewrite of patch 4 for bug #248176. Part of the problem was that inodes were being recycled before their buffers were flushed to the journal logs. Another problem was that the clone bitmaps were being searched for deleted inodes to recycle, but only the "real" bitmaps should be searched for that purpose.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | This is patch 5 of 5 for bug #248176 Metadata corruption was occurring because page references weren't being removed in all cases.

| | | | | | | | | | | | This is patch three of five for bug #248176. The try_rgrp_unlink code in rgrp.c had an infinite loop. This was caused because the bitmap function rgblk_search can return a block less than the "goal" block, in which case it was looping. The fix is to make it always march forward as needed.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | One of the races relates to referencing a variable while not holding its protecting spinlock. The patch simply moves the test inside the spin lock. The other races occurs when a demote to unlocked request occurs during the time a demote to shared request is already running. This of course only happens in the case that the lock was in the exclusive mode to start with. The patch adds a check to see if another demote request has occurred in the mean time and if it has, then it performs a second demote. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

The problem is in this code in ndisc_redirect_rcv(): if (ipv6_addr_equal(dest, target)) { on_link = 1; } else if (!(ipv6_addr_type(target) & IPV6_ADDR_LINKLOCAL)) { ND_PRINTK2(KERN_WARNING "ICMPv6 Redirect: target address is not link-local.\n"); return; } This second check will succeed if the Target address is, for example, FF02::1 because it has link-local scope. Instead, it should be checking if it's a unicast link-local address, as stated in RFC 2461/4861 Section 8.1: - The ICMP Target Address is either a link-local address (when redirected to a router) or the same as the ICMP Destination Address (when redirected to the on-link destination). I know this doesn't explicitly say unicast link-local address, but it's implied. This bug is preventing Linux kernels from achieving IPv6 Logo Phase II certification because of a recent error that was found in the TAHI test suite - Neighbor Disovery suite test 206 (v6LC.2.3.6_G) had the multicast address in the Destination field instead of Target field, so we were passing the test. This won't be the case anymore. The patch below fixes this problem, and also fixes ndisc_send_redirect() to not send an invalid redirect with a multicast address in the Target field. I re-ran the TAHI Neighbor Discovery section to make sure Linux passes all 245 tests now.

| * [TCP]: Fix fastpath_cnt_hint when GSO skb is partially ACKedIlpo Järvinen2007-10-071-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When only GSO skb was partially ACKed, no hints are reset, therefore fastpath_cnt_hint must be tweaked too or else it can corrupt fackets_out. The corruption to occur, one must have non-trivial ACK/SACK sequence, so this bug is not very often that harmful. There's a fackets_out state reset in TCP because fackets_out is known to be inaccurate and that fixes the issue eventually anyway. In case there was also at least one skb that got fully ACKed, the fastpath_skb_hint is set to NULL which causes a recount for fastpath_cnt_hint (the old value won't be accessed anymore), thus it can safely be decremented without additional checking.

* | fix bogus reporting of signals by auditAl Viro2007-10-071-11/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Async signals should not be reported as sent by current in audit log. As it is, we call audit_signal_info() too early in check_kill_permission(). Note that check_kill_permission() has that test already - it needs to know if it should apply current-based permission checks. So the solution is to move the call of audit_signal_info() between those. Bogosity in question is easily reproduced - add a rule watching for e.g. kill(2) from specific process (so that audit_signal_info() would not short-circuit to nothing), say load_policy, watch the bogus OBJ_PID entry in audit logs claiming that write(2) on selinuxfs file issued by load_policy(8) had somehow managed to send a signal to syslogd...

* | Longhaul: add auto enabled "revid_errata" optionRafal Bilski2007-10-071-3/+57

New "revid_errata" option will force RevisionKey to be set to 0, whatever RevisionID is. Additionaly "Longhaul" will not silently ignore unsuccessful transition. It will try to check if "revid_errata" or "disable_acpi_c3" options need to be enabled for this processor/system. Same for Longhaul ver. 2 support. It will be disabled if none of above options will work. Best case scenario (with patch apllied and v2 enabled): longhaul: VIA C3 'Ezra' [C5C] CPU detected. Longhaul v2 supported. longhaul: Using northbridge support. longhaul: VRM 8.5 longhaul: Max VID=1.350 Min VID=1.050, 13 possible voltage scales longhaul: f: 300000 kHz, index: 0, vid: 1050 mV [...] longhaul: Voltage scaling enabled. Worst case scenario: longhaul: VIA C3 'Ezra-T' [C5M] CPU detected. Powersaver supported. longhaul: Using northbridge support. longhaul: Using ACPI support. longhaul: VRM 8.5 longhaul: Claims to support voltage scaling but min & max are both 1.250. Voltage scaling disabled longhaul: Failed to set requested frequency! longhaul: Enabling "Ignore Revision ID" option. longhaul: Failed to set requested frequency! longhaul: Disabling ACPI C3 support. longhaul: Disabling "Ignore Revision ID" option. longhaul: Failed to set requested frequency! longhaul: Enabling "Ignore Revision ID" option.

* | Fix timer_stats printout of events/secAnton Blanchard2007-10-071-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using /proc/timer_stats on ppc64 I noticed the events/sec field wasnt accurate. Sometimes the integer part was incorrect due to rounding (we werent taking the fractional seconds into consideration). The fraction part is also wrong, we need to pad the printf statement and take the bottom three digits of 1000 times the value.

* | Don't do load-average calculations at even 5-second intervalsLinus Torvalds2007-10-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turns out that there are a few other five-second timers in the kernel, and if the timers get in sync, the load-average can get artificially inflated by events that just happen to coincide. So just offset the load average calculation it by a timer tick. Noticed by Anders Boström, for whom the coincidence started triggering on one of his machines with the JBD jiffies rounding code (JBD is one of the subsystems that also end up using a 5-second timer by default).
