* mm: arch: rename in_gate_area_no_task to in_gate_area_no_mmStephen Wilson2011-03-239-15/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that gate vma's are referenced with respect to a particular mm and not a particular task it only makes sense to propagate the change to this predicate as well.

* mm: arch: make in_gate_area take an mm_struct instead of a task_structStephen Wilson2011-03-237-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Morally, the question of whether an address lies in a gate vma should be asked with respect to an mm, not a particular task. Moreover, dropping the dependency on task_struct will help make existing and future operations on mm's more flexible and convenient.

* x86: mark associated mm when running a task in 32 bit compatibility modeStephen Wilson2011-03-232-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch simply follows the same practice as for setting the TIF_IA32 flag. In particular, an mm is marked as holding 32-bit tasks when a 32-bit binary is exec'ed. Both ELF and a.out formats are updated.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | This tag is intended to mirror the thread info TIF_IA32 flag.

Example patch that changes the ABI but does not change the checksum with current genksyms: | enum e { | E1, | E2, |+ E3, | E_MAX | }; | | struct s { | int a[E_MAX]; | } | | int f(struct s *s) { ... } | EXPORT_SYMBOL(f) Therefore, remember the value of each enum constant and expand each occurence to <constant> <value>. The value is not actually computed, but instead an expression in the form (last explicitly assigned value) + N is used. This avoids having to parse and semantically understand whole of C.

It turns out that the build blindly invokes a recursive make on this target, which causes make to emit this message when the target is already up to date. This isn't seen for most targets as the rest of the build relies primarily on the default target and on PHONY targets when invoking make recursively. Silence the above message when building unifdef as part of headers_install by hiding it behind a new PHONY target called "build_unifdef" that has an empty recipe.

The idea behind this option is targeted at developers who, in the process of writing their code, want to do the occasional make W=1 [target.o] and let gcc do more extensive code checking for them. Then, they could eyeball the output for valid gcc warnings about various bugs/discrepancies which are not reported during the normal build process.

* | Reduce sequential pointer derefs in scsi_error.c and reduce size as wellJesper Juhl2011-03-211-45/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch reduces the number of sequential pointer derefs in drivers/scsi/scsi_error.c This has been submitted a number of times over a couple of years. I believe this version adresses all comments it has gathered over time. Please apply or reject with a reason. The benefits are: - makes the code easier to read. Lots of sequential derefs of the same pointers is not easy on the eye. - theoretically at least, just dereferencing the pointers once can allow the compiler to generally slightly faster code, so in theory this could also be a micro speed optimization. - reduces size of object file (tiny effect: on x86-64, in at least one configuration, the text size decreased from 9439 bytes to 9400) - removes some pointless (mostly trailing) whitespace.

Any concerns that the incorrect code (upstream since October 2008) has been successfully used on non-IBM G200eV equipped system(s) appear to be unwarranted. In addition to the serious/non-intermittent nature of issues that have been spotted on IBM systems, complete removal of the incorrect code is clearly supported by the following Matrox (Yannick Heneault) provided input: "It impossible that this patch should have work on a system. The patch only declare the G200eV as a regular G200 which is not case. Many registers are different, including at least the PLL programming sequence. If the G200eV is programmed like a regular G200, it will not display anything." v1 - Initial patch that removed the incorrect code for _all_ G200eV equipped systems. v2 - Darrick Wong provided patch that blacklisted the incorrect code on G200eV equipped IBM systems leaving it enabled on all G200eV equipped non-IBM systems. v3 - Same code changes included with v1 plus additional justification for complete removal of the incorrect code.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In certain cases of inode corruption, the xfs_fs_repair_cmn_err() macro is used to output an extra message in the corruption report. That extra message is "unmount and run xfs_repair", which really applies to any corruption report. Each case that this macro is called (except one) a following call to xfs_corruption_error() is made to optionally dump more information about the error. Hence, move the output of "run xfs_repair" to xfs_corruption_error() so that it is output on all corruption reports. Also, convert the callers of the repair macro that don't call xfs_corruption_error() to call it, hence provide consiѕtent error reporting for all cases where xfs_fs_repair_cmn_err() used to be called.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 493f3358cb289ccf716c5a14fa5bb52ab75943e5 added this call to xfs_fs_geometry() in order to avoid passing kernel stack data back to user space: + memset(geo, 0, sizeof(*geo)); Unfortunately, one of the callers of that function passes the address of a smaller data type, cast to fit the type that xfs_fs_geometry() requires. As a result, this can happen: Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: f87aca93 Pid: 262, comm: xfs_fsr Not tainted 2.6.38-rc6-493f3358cb2+ #1 Call Trace: [<c12991ac>] ? panic+0x50/0x150 [<c102ed71>] ? __stack_chk_fail+0x10/0x18 [<f87aca93>] ? xfs_ioc_fsgeometry_v1+0x56/0x5d [xfs] Fix this by fixing that one caller to pass the right type and then copy out the subset it is interested in. Note: This patch is an alternative to one originally proposed by Eric Sandeen.

| * | xfs: more sensible inode refcounting for iallocChristoph Hellwig2011-02-225-78/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we return iodes from xfs_ialloc with just a single reference held. But we need two references, as one is dropped during transaction commit and the second needs to be transfered to the VFS. Change xfs_ialloc to use xfs_iget plus xfs_trans_ijoin_ref to grab two references to the inode, and remove the now superflous IHOLD calls from all callers. This also greatly simplifies the error handling in xfs_create and also allow to remove xfs_trans_iget as no other callers are left.

| * | xfs: stop using xfs_trans_iget in the RT allocatorChristoph Hellwig2011-02-222-39/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During mount we establish references to the RT inodes, which we keep for the lifetime of the filesystem. Instead of using xfs_trans_iget to grab additional references when adding RT inodes to transactions use the combination of xfs_ilock and xfs_trans_ijoin_ref, which archives the same end result with less overhead.

| * | xfs: check if device support discard in xfs_ioc_trim()Lukas Czerner2011-02-211-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now we, are relying on the fact that when we attempt to actually do the discard, blkdev_issue_discar() returns -EOPNOTSUPP and the user is informed that the device does not support discard. However, in the case where the we do not hit any suitable free extent to trim in FITRIM code, it will finish without any error. This is very confusing, because it seems that FITRIM was successful even though the device does not actually supports discard. Solution: Check for the discard support before attempt to search for free extents. Signed-off-by: Lukas Czerner <lczerner@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>
| * | xfs: prevent leaking uninitialized stack memory in FSGEOMETRY_V1Dan Rosenberg2011-02-211-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The FSGEOMETRY_V1 ioctl (and its compat equivalent) calls out to xfs_fs_geometry() with a version number of 3. This code path does not fill in the logsunit member of the passed xfs_fsop_geom_t, leading to the leaking of four bytes of uninitialized stack data to potentially unprivileged callers. v2 switches to memset() to avoid future issues if structure members change, on suggestion of Dave Chinner.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The rt bitmap and summary inodes do not participate in the normal inode locking protocol. Instead the rt bitmap inode can be locked in any transaction involving rt allocations, and the both of the rt inodes can be locked at the same time. Add specific lockdep subclasses for the rt inodes to prevent lockdep from blowing up. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <aelder@sgi.com>
