[PATCH] slab: Fix kmem_cache_destroy() on NUMA
With CONFIG_NUMA set, kmem_cache_destroy() may fail and say "Can't
free all objects." The problem is caused by sequences such as the
following (suppose we are on a NUMA machine with two nodes, 0 and 1):
* Allocate an object from cache on node 0.
* Free the object on node 1. The object is put into node 1's alien
array_cache for node 0.
* Call kmem_cache_destroy(), which ultimately ends up in __cache_shrink().
* __cache_shrink() does drain_cpu_caches(), which loops through all nodes.
For each node it drains the shared array_cache and then handles the
alien array_cache for the other node.
However this means that node 0's shared array_cache will be drained,
and then node 1 will move the contents of its alien[0] array_cache
into that same shared array_cache. node 0's shared array_cache is
never looked at again, so the objects left there will appear to be in
use when __cache_shrink() calls __node_shrink() for node 0. So
__node_shrink() will return 1 and kmem_cache_destroy() will fail.
This patch fixes this by having drain_cpu_caches() do
drain_alien_cache() on every node before it does drain_array() on the
nodes' shared array_caches.
The problem was originally reported by Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@voltaire.com>.

[PATCH] smbfs: Fix slab corruption in samba error path
Yesterday, I got the following error with 2.6.16.13 during a file copy from
a smb filesystem over a wireless link. I guess there was some error on the
wireless link, which in turn caused an error condition for the smb
filesystem.
In the log, smb_file_read reports error=
4294966784 (0xfffffe00), which also
shows up in the slab dumps, and also is -ERESTARTSYS. Error code 27499
corresponds to 0x6b6b, so the rq_errno field seems to be the only one being
set after freeing the slab.
In smb_add_request (which is the only place in smbfs where I found
ERESTARTSYS), I found the following:
if (!timeleft || signal_pending(current)) {
/*
* On timeout or on interrupt we want to try and remove the
* request from the recvq/xmitq.
*/
smb_lock_server(server);
if (!(req->rq_flags & SMB_REQ_RECEIVED)) {
list_del_init(&req->rq_queue);
smb_rput(req);
}
smb_unlock_server(server);
}
[...]
if (signal_pending(current))
req->rq_errno = -ERESTARTSYS;
I guess that some codepath like smbiod_flush() caused the request to be
removed from the queue, and smb_rput(req) be called, without
SMB_REQ_RECEIVED being set. This violates an asumption made by the quoted
code.
Then, the above code calls smb_rput(req) again, the req gets freed, and
req->rq_errno = -ERESTARTSYS writes into the already freed slab. As
list_del_init doesn't cause an error if called multiple times, that does
cause the observed behaviour (freed slab with rq_errno=-ERESTARTSYS).
If this observation is correct, the following patch should fix it.
I wonder why the smb code uses list_del_init everywhere - using list_del
instead would catch such situations by poisoning the next and prev
pointers.

[PATCH] symbol_put_addr() locks kernel
Even since a previous patch:
Fix race between CONFIG_DEBUG_SLABALLOC and modules
Sun, 27 Jun 2004 17:55:19 +0000 (17:55 +0000)
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/old-2.6-bkcvs.git;a=commit;h=
92b3db26d31cf21b70e3c1eadc56c179506d8fbe
The function symbol_put_addr() will deadlock the kernel.
symbol_put_addr() would acquire modlist_lock, then while holding the lock call
two functions kernel_text_address() and module_text_address() which also try
to acquire the same lock. This deadlocks the kernel of course.
This patch changes symbol_put_addr() to not acquire the modlist_lock, it
doesn't need it since it never looks at the module list directly. Also, it
now uses core_kernel_text() instead of kernel_text_address(). The latter has
an additional check for addr inside a module, but we don't need to do that
since we call module_text_address() (the same function kernel_text_address
uses) ourselves.

[NEIGH]: Fix IP-over-ATM and ARP interaction.
The classical IP over ATM code maintains its own IPv4 <-> <ATM stuff>
ARP table, using the standard neighbour-table code. The
neigh_table_init function adds this neighbour table to a linked list
of all neighbor tables which is used by the functions neigh_delete()
neigh_add() and neightbl_set(), all called by the netlink code.
Once the ATM neighbour table is added to the list, there are two
tables with family == AF_INET there, and ARP entries sent via netlink
go into the first table with matching family. This is indeterminate
and often wrong.
To see the bug, on a kernel with CLIP enabled, create a standard IPv4
ARP entry by pinging an unused address on a local subnet. Then attempt
to complete that entry by doing
ip neigh replace <ip address> lladdr <some mac address> nud reachable
Looking at the ARP tables by using
ip neigh show
will reveal two ARP entries for the same address. One of these can be
found in /proc/net/arp, and the other in /proc/net/atm/arp.
This patch adds a new function, neigh_table_init_no_netlink() which
does everything the neigh_table_init() does, except add the table to
the netlink all-arp-tables chain. In addition neigh_table_init() has a
check that all tables on the chain have a distinct address family.
The init call in clip.c is changed to call
neigh_table_init_no_netlink().
Since ATM ARP tables are rather more complicated than can currently be
handled by the available rtattrs in the netlink protocol, no
functionality is lost by this patch, and non-ATM ARP manipulation via
netlink is rescued. A more complete solution would involve a rtattr
for ATM ARP entries and some way for the netlink code to give
neigh_add and friends more information than just address family with
which to find the correct ARP table.
[ I've changed the assertion checking in neigh_table_init() to not
use BUG_ON() while holding neigh_tbl_lock. Instead we remember that
we found an existing tbl with the same family, and after dropping
the lock we'll give a diagnostic kernel log message and a stack dump.

Revert "[BLOCK] Fix oops on removal of SD/MMC card"
This reverts commit
56cf6504fc1c0c221b82cebc16a444b684140fb7.
Both Erik Mouw and Andrew Vasquez independently pinpointed this commit
as causing problems, where the slab cache for a driver is never released
(most obviously causing problems when immediately re-loading that
driver, resulting in a "kmem_cache_create: duplicate cache <xyz>"
message, but it can also cause other trouble).
James Bottomley dug into it, and reports:
"OK, here's the scoop. The problem patch adds a get of driverfs_dev in
add_disk(), but doesn't put it again until disk_release() (which occurs
on final put_disk() of the gendisk).
However, in SCSI, the driverfs_dev is the sdev_gendev. That means
there's a reference held on sdev_gendev until final disk put.
Unfortunately, we use the driver model driver_remove to trigger
del_gendisk (which removes the gendisk from visibility and decrements
the refcount), so we've introduced an unbreakable deadlock in the
reference counting with this.
I suggest simply reversing this patch at the moment. If Russell and
Jens can tell me what they're trying to do I'll see if there's another
way to do it."
so hereby the patch gets reverted, waiting for a better fix.

sis900: phy for FoxCon motherboard
661FX7MI-S motherboard which uses the SiS 661FX chipset. The patch adds
an entry to mii_chip_info for the transceiver.
The PHY ids were found using the sis900_c_122.diff patch from
http://brownhat.org/sis900.html but that patch didn't solve the problem,
because the PHY at address 1 was already being chosen.
Without my patch, when bursts of packets arrive from other hosts on a
LAN, the interface dropped one roughly 10% of the time, causing
retransmits. There were fifth second pauses in refresh of large xterms,
and it made Netrek suck. I can provide further test data.
Workaround in lieu of patch is to use mii-tool to advertise
100baseTx-HD, then force renegotiation.
I wasn't able to identify the actual transceiver, so the description
field is a guess.
This patch is similar to Artur Skawina's patch:

[SCSI] mptfc: race between mptfc_register_dev and mptfc_target_alloc
A race condition exists in mptfc between the thread registering a device
with the fc transport and the scan work generated by the transport.
This race existed prior to the application of the mptfc bug fix patch.
mptfc_register_dev() calls fc_remote_port_add() with the FC_RPORT_ROLE_TARGET
bit set in the rport ids passed to the function. Having this bit set causes
fc_remote_port_add() to schedule a scan of the device.
This scan can execute before mptfc_register_dev() can fill in the dd_data
in the rport structure. When this happens, mptfc_target_alloc() will fail
because dd_data is null.
Attached is a patch which fixes the problem. The patch changes the rport ids
passed to fc_remote_port_add() to not have the TARGET bit set. This prevents
the scan from being scheduled. After mptfc_register_dev() fills in the rport
dd_data field, fc_remote_port_rolechg() is called, changing the role of the
rport to TARGET. Thus, the scan is scheduled after dd_data is filled
in which prevents the failure in mptfc_target_alloc().

[ARM] Fix thread struct allocator for SMP case
The ARM thread struct allocator is racy on SMP systems. Fix it by
turning it into a per-cpu based allocator. This also allows keeps
the cache cache warm for thread structs and kernel stacks.

[PATCH] scx200_acb: Fix for the CS5535 errata
This is a fix for the CS5535 errata 111:
When the SMBus controller tries to access a non-existing device, it sets
the NEGACK bit, SMBus I/O offset 01h[4], to 1 after it detects no
acknowledge at the ninth clock. The specification states that the bit
can be cleared by writing a 1 to it, but under certain circumstances it
is possible for this bit to not clear.
Writing a 0 to the bit resets the internal state machine and clears the
issue.
Since all writable bits in ACBST are W1C bits (write-one-to-clear) the
second write doesn't affect any other logic except the buggy NEGACK
state machine. The second write clears an internal register which is
responsible for "overwriting" the NEGACK bit in ACBST.

[PATCH] scx200_acb: Fix resource name use after free
We can't pass a string on the stack to request_region. As soon as we
leave the function that stack is gone and the string is lost. Let's
use the same string we identify the i2c_adapter with instead, it's
more simple, more consistent, and just works.
This is the second half of fix to bug #6445.
