netpoll_poll_lock() synchronizes the ->poll() invocation code paths, but once we have the lock we have to make sure that NAPI_STATE_SCHED is still set. Otherwise we get: cpu 0 cpu 1 net_rx_action() poll_napi() netpoll_poll_lock() ... spin on ->poll_lock ->poll() netif_rx_complete netpoll_poll_unlock() acquire ->poll_lock() ->poll() netif_rx_complete() CRASH Based upon a bug report from Tina Yang.

while reviewing the tcp_md5-related code further i came across with another two of these casts which you probably have missed. I don't actually think that they impose a problem by now, but as you said we should remove them. Signed-off-by: Matthias M. Dellweg <2500@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

TCP Vegas implementation has a bug in the process of disabling slow-start with gamma parameter. The bug may lead to extreme unfairness in the presence of early packet loss. See details in: http://www.cs.caltech.edu/~weixl/technical/ns2linux/known_linux/index.html#vegas Switch the order of "if (tp->snd_cwnd <= tp->snd_ssthresh)" statement and "if (diff > gamma)" statement to eliminate the problem.

Instead of using the default timeout of 3 minutes, this uses the timeout specific to the protocol used for the connection. The 3 minute timeout seems somewhat arbitrary (though I know it is used other places in the ipvs code) and when failing over it would be much nicer to use one of the configured timeout values.

Linus Torvalds authored
This reverts commit 2e1c49db. First off, testing in Fedora has shown it to cause boot failures, bisected down by Martin Ebourne, and reported by Dave Jobes. So the commit will likely be reverted in the 2.6.23 stable kernels. Secondly, in the 2.6.24 model, x86-64 has now grown support for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, which disables the relevant code anyway, so while the bug is not visible any more, it's become invisible due to the code just being irrelevant and no longer enabled on the only architecture that this ever affected.

This patch: commit 9b5b7751 Author: Srivatsa Vaddagiri <vatsa@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Date: Mon Oct 15 17:00:09 2007 +0200 sched: clean up code under CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED Introduced an assumption of the existence of CPU0 via this line cfs_rq = tg->cfs_rq[0]; If you have no CPU0, that will be NULL. The fix seems to be just to take whatever cfs_rq queue comes out of the for_each_possible_cpu() loop, since they're all equally good for the destruction operation.

When GDB writes a breakpoint into address area of inferior process the kernel needs to invalidate the modified memory in the inferior which is done by calling flush_cache_page which in turns calls r4k_flush_cache_page and local_r4k_flush_cache_page for VSMP or SMTC kernel via r4k_on_each_cpu(). As the VSMP and SMTC SMP kernels for 34K are running on a single shared caches it is possible to get away without interprocessor function calls. This optimization is implemented in r4k_on_each_cpu, so local_r4k_flush_cache_page is only ever called on the local CPU. This is where the following code in local_r4k_flush_cache_page() strikes: /* * If ownes no valid ASID yet, cannot possibly have gotten * this page into the cache. */ if (cpu_context(smp_processor_id(), mm) == 0) return; On VSMP and SMTC had a function of cpu_context() for each CPU(TC). So in case another CPU than the CPU executing local_r4k_cache_flush_page has not accessed the mm but one of the other CPUs has there may be data to be flushed in the cache yet local_r4k_cache_flush_page will falsely return leaving the I-cache inconsistent for the breakpoint. While the issue was discovered with GDB it also exists in local_r4k_flush_cache_range() and local_r4k_flush_cache(). Fixed by introducing a new function has_valid_asid which on MT kernels returns true if a mm is active on any processor in the system. This is relativly expensive since for memory acccesses in that loop cache misses have to be assumed but it seems the most viable solution for 2.6.23 and older -stable kernels.
