while porting the -rt tree to 2.6.18-rc7 i noticed the following screaming-IRQ scenario on an SMP system: 2274 0Dn.:1 0.001ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103 <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf) 2274 0Dn.:1 0.010ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103 <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf) 2274 0Dn.:1 0.020ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103 <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf) 2274 0Dn.:1 0.029ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103 <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf) 2274 0Dn.:1 0.039ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103 <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf) 2274 0Dn.:1 0.048ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103 <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf) 2274 0Dn.:1 0.058ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103 <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf) 2274 0Dn.:1 0.068ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103 <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf) 2274 0Dn.:1 0.077ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103 <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf) 2274 0Dn.:1 0.087ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103 <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf) 2274 0Dn.:1 0.097ms: do_IRQ+0xc/0x103 <= (ret_from_intr+0x0/0xf) as it turns out, the bug is caused by handle_level_irq(), which if it races with another CPU already handling this IRQ, it _unmasks_ the IRQ line on the way out. This is not how 2.6.17 works, and we introduced this bug in one of the early genirq cleanups right before it went into -mm. (the bug was not in the genirq patchset for a long time, and we didnt notice the bug due to the lack of -rt rebase to the new genirq code. -rt, and hardirq-preemption in particular opens up such races much wider than anything else.)

If the user tries to traverse to the next node of the last node, we get NULL in current_node and a zero phandle returned. That's fine, but if the user tries to obtain properties in that state, we try to dereference a NULL pointer in the downcall to the of_*() routines. So protect against that. Signed-off-by: -

This turns out to be a genuine bug. The queue lock and xmit lock are intentionally taken out of order. Two things are supposed to prevent dead-locks from occuring: 1) When we hold the queue_lock we're supposed to only do try_lock on the tx_lock. 2) We always drop the queue_lock after taking the tx_lock and before doing anything else. > > the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: > > -> #1 (&dev->_xmit_lock){-+..}: > [<c012e7b6>] lock_acquire+0x76/0xa0 > [<c0336241>] _spin_lock_bh+0x31/0x40 > [<c02d25a9>] dev_activate+0x69/0x120 This path obviously breaks assumption 1) and therefore can lead to ABBA dead-locks. I've looked at the history and there seems to be no reason for the lock to be held at all in dev_watchdog_up. The lock appeared in day one and even there it was unnecessary. In fact, people added __dev_watchdog_up precisely in order to get around the tx lock there. The function dev_watchdog_up is already serialised by rtnl_lock since its only caller dev_activate is always called under it. So here is a simple patch to remove the tx lock from dev_watchdog_up. In 2.6.19 we can eliminate the unnecessary __dev_watchdog_up and replace it with dev_watchdog_up. Signed-off-by:Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by:

neigh_table_clear() doesn't free tbl->stats. Found by Alexey Kuznetsov. Though Alexey considers this leak minor for mainstream, I still believe that cleanup code should not forget to free some of the resources :) At least, this is critical for OpenVZ with virtualized neighbour tables.

[PATCH 6/9] s390: qeth driver fixes [3/6] From: Frank Pavlic <fpavlic@de.ibm.com> fixed kernel panic caused by qeth driver: Using a bonding device qeth driver will realloc headroom for every skb coming from the bond device. Once this happens qeth frees the original skb and set the skb pointer to the new realloced skb. Under heavy transmit workload (e.g.UDP streams) through bond network device the qdio output queue might get full. In this case we return with EBUSY from qeth_send_packet. Returning to qeth_hard_start_xmit routine the skb address on the stack still points to the old address, which has been freed before. Returning from qeth_hard_start_xmit with EBUSY results in requeuing the skb. In this case it corrupts the qdisc queue and results in kernel panic. Signed-off-by: -
