[PATCH] ppc64: fix nonexistent irq affinity
This fixes a bug where, if we try to set the affinity on an unused
virtual IRQ number on a logically-partitioned pSeries system, we call
the firmware with physical IRQ number = -1, which it doesn't like.
With this patch we just ignore the attempt.

Split ptep_establish into "establish" and "update_access_flags"
ptep_establish() is used to establish a new mapping at COW time,
and it always replaces a non-writable page mapping with a totally
new page mapping that is dirty (and likely writable, although ptrace
may cause a non-writable new mapping). Because it was nonwritable,
we don't have to worry about losing concurrent dirty page bit updates.
ptep_update_access_flags() leaves the same page mapping, but updates
the accessed/dirty/writable bits (it only ever sets them, and never
removes any permissions). Often easier, but it may race with a dirty
bit update on another CPU.
Booted on x86 and ppc64.

[IPSEC]: Fix buglet in AF_KEY spddelete
When trying to spddelete individual entries using setkey, spddelete always
fails. The culprit is in net/af_key.c; spdadd sets the family field of the
selector when creating an entry, but spddelete doesn't when building a
selector to match for xfrm_policy_bysel. Trivial fix is to have spddelete
set the family field in the selector in same way spdadd does.

[PATCH] IRQ stacks for PPC64
Even with a 16kB stack, we have been seeing stack overflows on PPC64
under stress. This patch implements separate per-cpu stacks for
processing interrupts and softirqs, along the lines of the
CONFIG_4KSTACKS stuff on x86. At the moment the stacks are still 16kB
but I hope we can reduce that to 8kB in future. (Gcc is capable of
adding instructions to the function prolog to check the stack pointer
whenever it moves it downwards, and I want to use that when I try
using 8kB stacks so I can be confident that we aren't overflowing the
stack.)

[PATCH] remap_file_pages: implement MAP_POPULATE for all protections
Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com>
It seems eccentric to implement MAP_POPULATE only on PROT_NONE mappings:
do_mmap_pgoff is passing down prot, then sys_remap_file_pages verifies it's
not set. I guess that's an oversight from when we realized that the prot arg
to sys_remap_file_pages was misdesigned.
There's another oddity whose heritage is harder for me to understand, so
please let me leave it to you: sys_remap_file_pages is declared as asmlinkage
in mm/fremap.c, but is the one syscall declared without asmlinkage in
include/linux/syscalls.h.

[PATCH] Fix for lockup in reiserfs acl/xattrs
From: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com>
The following is a patch to fix a locking problem in ACL/xattr code. It
manifests when a user attempts to set an xattr on a file which they do
not own, and on which an ACL is applied.
What happens is this:
reiserfs_setxattr [write lock inode xattr sem]
->xattr_set
-> lookup
-> __reiserfs_permission [if conditions above are met, and need_lock=
is
unset, read lock inode xattr sem] *lockup*
Since we already keep track of when to lock during permission calls, the
fix is simple: just make the locking conditional as it was before.

[PATCH] UDF: directory reading fix
From: Ben Fennema <bfennema@falcon.csc.calpoly.edu>
The problem occured when files were stored on the disc in 16-bit per

converted the file name given by the user to a 8-bit per character
string to compare, so the comparison always failed.
The patch maps the file from disc into the current locale and then
compares it directly to the file name given by the user.

[PATCH] initramfs uncpio fix
From: <viro@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk>
init/initramfs.c::do_skip() has an off-by-one that leads to unpacking
failures for some gzipped cpio images. We have
static int __init do_skip(void)
{
if (this_header + count <= next_header) {
eat(count);
return 1;
} else {
eat(next_header - this_header);
state = next_state;
return 0;
}
}
and that <= should actually be <. It almost never matters, since if we hit
the boundary case (header ending exactly on the gunzip window end) the
current variant will simply end up doing extra call of do_skip() when we
get to the next window and that will finish the work (assign state). The
only exception is when we hit that in the last window. That is, if there's
nothing after the final header (trailer). Then we miss the final state
transition (Skip -> Reset) and get "junk in archive" panic. Normally
cpio(1) pads the image to multiple of 512, so we actually have a bunch of
zeroes after the trailer. And that almost always saves our butts - trailer
is followed by zeroes, so we get to Reset state just fine.
So we never see that on small in-kernel image (it's less than 512 bytes, so
it gets a lot of padding) and we almost never see that on external ones
(1:127 odds of hitting the bug).

[PATCH] Fix race condition with current->group_info
From: Olaf Kirch <okir@suse.de>
I have been chasing a corruption of current->group_info on PPC during NFS
stress tests. The problem seems to be that nfsd is messing with its
group_info quite a bit, while some monitoring processes look at
/proc/<pid>/status and do a get_group_info/put_group_info without any locking.
This problem can be reproduced on ppc platforms within a few seconds if you
generate some NFS load and do a "cat /proc/XXX/status" of an nfsd thread in a
tight loop.
I therefore think changes to current->group_info, and querying it from a
different process, needs to be protected using the task_lock.
(akpm: task->group_info here is safe against exit() because the task holds a
ref on group_info which is released in __put_task_struct, and the /proc file
has a ref on the task_struct).

[PATCH] Fix the mangled-oops-output-on-SMP problem
From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
printk currently does
if (oops_in_progres)

which means that once we oops, the printk locking is 100% ineffective and
multiple CPUs make an unreadable mess on a serial console. It's a significant
development hassle.
Fix that up by only popping locks once per ten seconds.
akpm@osdl.org did:
- Bump the timeout to 30 seconds - 9600 baud is slow.
- Handle jiffy wraps: change the logic so that we only skip the lockbust
if the current time is within 30 seconds of the previous lockbusting
attempt.

[PATCH] Prevent scary warnings from knfsd
From: "J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@fieldses.org>
The kernel currently prints:
nfsd: nobody listening for auth.unix.ip upcall; has some daemon not been started?
on every bootup, during initscripts.
Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au> says:
It was part of the recent set of idmapper patches. Bruce wanted the admin
to get a warning when the idmapper daemon wasn't running. I thought the
same warning should apply to any daemon that responded to upcalls.
In the case of auth.unix.ip it isn't strictly necessary for a daemon to be
running (for comparability with 2.4).
You can get rid of the warning by doing:
mount -t nfsd nfsd /proc/fs/nfs
before mountd is started (init scripts should start doing this I hope, but
distributions don't tend to use the init script from nfs-utils, so it is
hard to push it). This will trigger mountd to listen on auth.unix.ip and
others.
That's a hassle, so Bruce's patch limits the warning purely to the new
idmapper cache. It provides a callback in the cache_detail that individual
caches can use to log messages when upcalls fail because a userspace daemon
not running. Implement this method for the idmapping caches.

[PATCH] ppc64: avoid bogus real IRQ numbers
Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
Early in the boot process on pSeries machines, we look in the Open Firmware
device tree for information about the interrupt assignments, and assign
virtual IRQ numbers for each physical IRQ. There is currently a couple of
bugs in this code which result in us assigning virtual IRQs for nonexistent
physical IRQs. This causes problems when we call the firmware to enable or
disable those nonexistent physical IRQs. Some versions at least of the
firmware will hit an assertion failure and crash the machine when this
happens.
This patch fixes the bugs and ensures that we don't try and use nonexistent
physical IRQ numbers. One bug was that we were mapping ISA interrupts,
which is unnecessary since virtual IRQ numbers 0 - 15 are reserved for
them. The other was that when we had a PCI interrupt (which is always in
the range 1 to 4, corresponding to INTA to INTD) which didn't have a
mapping in the PCI host bridge above it, we were just using the original
number (usually 1) rather than ignoring it.

We want some room to grow but our maximum get_free_pages allocation on

[PATCH] dynamic addition of virtual disks on PPC64 iSeries
From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>
This patch allows us to dynamically add virtual disks to an iSeries partition.
It works like this: after you have created the virtual disk file on OS/400
and attached it to the Linux partition, you need to write to
/sys/bus/vio/drivers/viodasd/probe (it doesn't matter what you write). This
will do the probe. It calls add_disk() for each new disk, so we get hotplug
events as a side effect.
This was the nicest way I could think of doing this as the interface to the
hypervisor is polled ...

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>
From: Anton Blanchard, Dave Hansen and Olof Johansson:
Fix multiple bugs in the ppc64 NUMA topology probe code.
- We were using HW cpu numbers instead of logical ones. 615, 630, 650,
some 670 and some 690 SMP will all fail to boot without this patch.
- The old code would BUG() when it got confused (more NUMA zones than the
kernel is configured for etc).
- The common depth calculation was incorrect. Dave found an OF property
that gives us exactly what we want.
- Things were broken on SMT machines.
The new code should work on those broken systems and should no longer BUG()
but fall back to a flat topology when it gets confused.

[PATCH] ppc64: better stack traces
This improves the stack traces we get on PPC64 by putting a marker in
those stack frames that are created as a result of an interrupt or
exception. The marker is "regshere" (0x7265677368657265).
With this, stack traces show where exceptions have occurred, which can
be very useful. This also improves the accuracy of the trace because
the relevant return address can be in the link register at the time of
the exception rather than on the stack. We now print the PC and
exception type for each exception frame, and then the link register if
appropriate as the next item in the trace.

[IPSEC]: Fix OOPS when deleting an ip address.
Looks like I was too hasty in blaming myself :) Although my patch does
fix a real bug, it cannot have been responsible for the crash that the OP
reported. The reason is that the state timer always keeps a reference to
the state so even if it is incorrectly re-added the reference will prevent
the crash.
Hence the problem is still a bug in the ref counting. I think I've found
the real culprit now. __xfrm?_find_acq() is missing an xfrm_state_hold
on the create path. This also explains why I never see it myself since
Openswan never creates states through that code-path.
