* [IPV4]: Kill redundant rcu_dereference on fa_infoHerbert Xu2005-10-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch kills a redundant rcu_dereference on fa->fa_info in fib_trie.c. As this dereference directly follows a list_for_each_entry_rcu line, we have already taken a read barrier with respect to getting an entry from the list. This read barrier guarantees that all values read out of fa are valid. In particular, the contents of structure pointed to by fa->fa_info is initialised before fa->fa_info is actually set (see fn_trie_insert); the setting of fa->fa_info itself is further separated with a write barrier from the insertion of fa into the list. Therefore by taking a read barrier after obtaining fa from the list (which is given by list_for_each_entry_rcu), we can be sure that fa->fa_info contains a valid pointer, as well as the fact that the data pointed to by fa->fa_info is itself valid.

| | | | | | | | | | | It's fairly simple to resize the hash table, but currently you need to remove and reinsert the module. That's bad (we lose connection state).

* [NET]: Wider use of for_each_*cpu()John Hawkes2005-10-257-28/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In 'net' change the explicit use of for-loops and NR_CPUS into the general for_each_cpu() or for_each_online_cpu() constructs, as appropriate. This widens the scope of potential future optimizations of the general constructs, as well as takes advantage of the existing optimizations of first_cpu() and next_cpu(), which is advantageous when the true CPU count is much smaller than NR_CPUS.

* [PATCH] qlogic lockup fixAndrew Morton2005-10-251-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If qla2x00_probe_one()'s call to qla2x00_iospace_config() fails, we call qla2x00_free_device() to clean up. But because ha->dpc_pid hasn't been set yet, qla2x00_free_device() tries to stop a kernel thread which hasn't started yet. It does wait_for_completion() against an uninitialised completion struct and the kernel hangs up. Fix it by initialising ha->dpc_pid a bit earlier.

* [PATCH] posix-timers: fix posix_cpu_timer_set() vs run_posix_cpu_timers() raceOleg Nesterov2005-10-241-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This might be harmless, but looks like a race from code inspection (I was unable to trigger it). I must admit, I don't understand why we can't return TIMER_RETRY after 'spin_unlock(&p->sighand->siglock)' without doing bump_cpu_timer(), but this is what original code does. posix_cpu_timer_set: read_lock(&tasklist_lock); spin_lock(&p->sighand->siglock); list_del_init(&timer->it.cpu.entry); spin_unlock(&p->sighand->siglock); We are probaly deleting the timer from run_posix_cpu_timers's 'firing' local list_head while run_posix_cpu_timers() does list_for_each_safe. Various bad things can happen, for example we can just delete this timer so that list_for_each() will not notice it and run_posix_cpu_timers() will not reset '->firing' flag. In that case, .... if (timer->it.cpu.firing) { read_unlock(&tasklist_lock); timer->it.cpu.firing = -1; return TIMER_RETRY; } sys_timer_settime() goes to 'retry:', calls posix_cpu_timer_set() again, it returns TIMER_RETRY ...

If that state was EXIT_DEAD (or another cpu does sys_wait4) interrupted task has ->signal == NULL. At this moment exiting task has no pending cpu timers, they were cleaned up in __exit_signal()->posix_cpu_timers_exit{,_group}(), so we can just return from irq.

* [PATCH] posix-timers: fix cleanup_timers() and run_posix_cpu_timers() racesOleg Nesterov2005-10-241-19/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. cleanup_timers() sets timer->task = NULL under tasklist + ->sighand locks. That means that this code in posix_cpu_timer_del() and posix_cpu_timer_set() lock_timer(timer); if (timer->task == NULL) return; read_lock(tasklist); put_task_struct(timer->task) is racy. With this patch timer->task modified and accounted only under timer->it_lock. Sadly, this means that dead task_struct won't be freed until timer deleted or armed. 2. run_posix_cpu_timers() collects expired timers into local list under tasklist + ->sighand again. That means that posix_cpu_timer_del() should check timer->it.cpu.firing under these locks too. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Add and use idr_destroy() for this. v9fs and infiniband also need to use idr_destroy() to avoid leaks. Or, we make the cache global, like radix_tree_preload(). Which is probably better. Later.

This doesn't work because the timer may have already fired when we acquire the write lock in neigh_changeaddr. The result is that the timer may keep firing for quite a while until the entry reaches NEIGH_FAILED. It should be setting the nud_state straight away so that if the timer has already fired it can simply exit once we relinquish the lock. In fact, this whole function is simply duplicating the logic in neigh_ifdown which in turn is already doing the right thing when it comes to deleting timers and setting nud_state. So all we have to do is take that code out and put it into a common function and make both neigh_changeaddr and neigh_ifdown call it. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

* | [PATCH] Call exit_itimers from do_exit, not __exit_signalRoland McGrath2005-10-213-14/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I originally moved exit_itimers into __exit_signal, that was the only place where we could reliably know it was the last thread in the group dying, without races. Since then we've gotten the signal_struct.live counter, and do_exit can reliably do group-wide cleanup work. This patch moves the call to do_exit, where it's made without locks. This avoids the deadlock issues that the old __exit_signal code's comment talks about, and the one that Oleg found recently with process CPU timers. [ This replaces e03d13e985d48ac4885382c9e3b1510c78bd047f, which is why it was just reverted. ] Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

* | [PATCH] cpufreq: fix pending powernow timer stuck conditionDave Jones2005-10-211-11/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AMD recently discovered that on some hardware, there is a race condition possible when a C-state change request goes onto the bus at the same time as a P-state change request. Both requests happen, but the southbridge hardware only acknowledges the C-state change. The PowerNow! driver is then stuck in a loop, waiting for the P-state change acknowledgement. The driver eventually times out, but can no longer perform P-state changes. It turns out the solution is to resend the P-state change, which the southbridge will acknowledge normally. Thanks to Johannes Winkelmann for reporting this and testing the fix.

* | [PATCH] ppc64: Fix typo bug in iSeries hash codeDavid Gibson2005-10-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a stupid typo bug in the iSeries hash table code. When we place a hash PTE in the secondary bucket, instead of setting the SECONDARY flag bit, as we should, we (redundantly) set the VALID flag. This was introduced with the patch abolishing bitfields from the hash table code. Mea culpa, oops. It hasn't been noticed until now because in practice we don't hit the secondary bucket terribly often. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <dwg@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
