2005-08-26[PATCH] x86_64: Tell VM about holes in nodesAndi Kleen
Some nodes can have large holes on x86-64. This fixes problems with the VM allowing too many dirty pages because it overestimates the number of available RAM in a node. In extreme cases you can end up with all RAM filled with dirty pages which can lead to deadlocks and other nasty behaviour. This patch just tells the VM about the known holes from e820. Reserved (like the kernel text or mem_map) is still not taken into account, but that should be only a few percent error now. Small detail is that the flat setup uses the NUMA free_area_init_node() now too because it offers more flexibility.

2005-08-26[PATCH] ppc64: Fix issue with gcc 4.0 compiled kernelsAnton Blanchard
I recently had a BUG_ON() go off spuriously on a gcc 4.0 compiled kernel. It turns out gcc-4.0 was removing a sign extension while earlier gcc versions would not. Thinking this to be a compiler bug, I submitted a report: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23422 It turns out we need to cast the input in order to tell gcc to sign extend it.

2005-08-23[NET]: Fix socket bitop damageRalf Baechle
The socket flag cleanups that went into 2.6.12-rc1 are basically oring the flags of an old socket into the socket just being created. Unfortunately that one was just initialized by sock_init_data(), so already has SOCK_ZAPPED set. As the result zapped sockets are created and all incoming connection will fail due to this bug which again was carefully replicated to at least AX.25, NET/ROM or ROSE. In order to keep the abstraction alive I've introduced sock_copy_flags() to copy the socket flags from one sockets to another and used that instead of the bitwise copy thing. Anyway, the idea here has probably been to copy all flags, so sock_copy_flags() should be the right thing. With this the ham radio protocols are usable again, so I hope this will make it into 2.6.13.

2005-08-19Fix nasty ncpfs symlink handling bug.Linus Torvalds
This bug could cause oopses and page state corruption, because ncpfs used the generic page-cache symlink handlign functions. But those functions only work if the page cache is guaranteed to be "stable", ie a page that was installed when the symlink walk was started has to still be installed in the page cache at the end of the walk. We could have fixed ncpfs to not use the generic helper routines, but it is in many ways much cleaner to instead improve on the symlink walking helper routines so that they don't require that absolute stability. We do this by allowing "follow_link()" to return a error-pointer as a cookie, which is fed back to the cleanup "put_link()" routine. This also simplifies NFS symlink handling.

2005-08-18[PATCH] NFS: Introduce the use of inode->i_lock to protect fields in nfsiChuck Lever
Down the road we want to eliminate the use of the global kernel lock entirely from the NFS client. To do this, we need to protect the fields in the nfs_inode structure adequately. Start by serializing updates to the "cache_validity" field. Note this change addresses an SMP hang found by njw@osdl.org, where processes deadlock because nfs_end_data_update and nfs_revalidate_mapping update the "cache_validity" field without proper serialization. Test plan: Millions of fsx ops on SMP clients. Run Nick Wilson's breaknfs program on large SMP clients.

2005-08-18[PATCH] NFS: use atomic bitops to manipulate flags in nfsi->flagsChuck Lever
Introduce atomic bitops to manipulate the bits in the nfs_inode structure's "flags" field. Using bitops means we can use a generic wait_on_bit call instead of an ad hoc locking scheme in fs/nfs/inode.c, so we can remove the "nfs_i_wait" field from nfs_inode at the same time. The other new flags field will continue to use bitmask and logic AND and OR. This permits several flags to be set at the same time efficiently. The following patch adds a spin lock to protect these flags, and this spin lock will later cover other fields in the nfs_inode structure, amortizing the cost of using this type of serialization.

2005-08-16[PATCH] iSeries build with newer assemblers and compilersStephen Rothwell
Paulus suggested that we put xLparMap in its own .c file so that we can generate a .s file to be included into head.S. This doesn't get around the problem of having it at a fixed address, but it makes it more palatable. It would be good if this could be included in 2.6.13 as it solves our build problems with various versions of binutils and gcc. In particular, it allows us to build an iSeries kernel on Debian unstable using their biarch compiler. This has been built and booted on iSeries and built for pSeries and g5.

2005-08-16[PATCH] NFS: Ensure we always update inode->i_mode when doing O_EXCL createsTrond Myklebust
When the client performs an exclusive create and opens the file for writing, a Netapp filer will first create the file using the mode 01777. It does this since an NFSv3/v4 exclusive create cannot immediately set the mode bits. The 01777 mode then gets put into the inode->i_mode. After the file creation is successful, we then do a setattr to change the mode to the correct value (as per the NFS spec). The problem is that nfs_refresh_inode() no longer updates inode->i_mode, so the latter retains the 01777 mode. A bit later, the VFS notices this, and calls remove_suid(). This of course now resets the file mode to inode->i_mode & 0777. Hey presto, the file mode on the server is now magically changed to 0777. Duh...
