When revalidating a dentry, if the inode wasn't known to be a dfs entry when the dentry was instantiated, such as when created via ->readdir(), the DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT flag needs to be set on the dentry in ->d_revalidate(). The false return from cifs_d_revalidate(), due to the inode now being marked with the S_AUTOMOUNT flag, might not invalidate the dentry if there is a concurrent unlazy path walk. This is because the dentry reference count will be at least 2 in this case causing d_invalidate() to return EBUSY. So the asumption that the dentry will be discarded then correctly instantiated via ->lookup() might not hold. Signed-off-by:

While testing, I've found that even when we are able to negotiate a much larger rsize with the server, on-the-wire reads often end up being capped at 128k because of ra_pages being capped at that level. Lifting this restriction gave almost a twofold increase in sequential read performance on my craptactular KVM test rig with a 1M rsize. I think this is safe since the actual ra_pages that the VM requests is run through max_sane_readahead() prior to submitting the I/O. Under memory pressure we should end up with large readahead requests being suppressed anyway. Signed-off-by:

The change to let individual tests decide to reboot the machine on success of the entire test also prevented errors from rebooting when an error was detected. The "no_reboot" variable was only cleared if the test had reboot_on_success set. But the no_reboot variable also prevents the test rebooting when an error was detected even when REBOOT_ON_ERROR was set. Add a new "reboot_success" variable that is used to determine if the test should reboot on success and not touch the no_reboot variable. Signed-off-by:

When BISECT_REVERSE and BISECT_SKIP are used together with boot or test testing, build failures are treated as boot or test failures and 'git bisect bad' is executed instead of 'git bisect skip'. This is because the $ret value of -1 is treated as a build failure, but the $reverse_bisect logic does not properly handle this. Simple fix, only invert it if it is positive.

A common flaw in UEFI systems is a refusal to POST triggered by a malformed boot variable. Once in this state, machines may only be restored by reflashing their firmware with an external hardware device. While this is obviously a firmware bug, the serious nature of the outcome suggests that operating systems should filter their variable writes in order to prevent a malicious user from rendering the machine unusable.

The switch from using irq_map to irq_alloc_desc*() for managing irq number allocations introduced new bugs in some of the powerpc interrupt code. Several functions rely on the value of NR_IRQS to determine the maximum irq number that could get allocated. However, with sparse_irq and using irq_alloc_desc*() the maximum possible irq number is now specified with 'nr_irqs' which may be a number larger than NR_IRQS. This has caused breakage on powermac when CONFIG_NR_IRQS is set to 32. This patch removes most of the direct references to NR_IRQS in the powerpc code and replaces them with either a nr_irqs reference or by using the common for_each_irq_desc() macro. The powerpc-specific for_each_irq() macro is removed at the same time. Also, the Cell axon_msi driver is refactored to remove the global build assumption on the size of NR_IRQS and instead add a limit to the maximum irq number when calling irq_domain_add_nomap().

The mpc8xx driver uses a reference to NR_IRQS that is buggy. It uses NR_IRQs for the array size of the ppc_cached_irq_mask bitmap, but NR_IRQs could be smaller than the number of hardware irqs that ppc_cached_irq_mask tracks. Also, while fixing that problem, it became apparent that the interrupt controller only supports 32 interrupt numbers, but it is written as if it supports multiple register banks which is more complicated. This patch pulls out the buggy reference to NR_IRQs and fixes the size of the ppc_cached_irq_mask to match the number of HW irqs. It also drops the now-unnecessary code since ppc_cached_irq_mask is no longer an array. Signed-off-by:

The autofs packet size has had a very unfortunate size problem on x86: because the alignment of 'u64' differs in 32-bit and 64-bit modes, and because the packet data was not 8-byte aligned, the size of the autofsv5 packet structure differed between 32-bit and 64-bit modes despite looking otherwise identical (300 vs 304 bytes respectively). We first fixed that up by making the 64-bit compat mode know about this problem in commit a32744d4 ("autofs: work around unhappy compat problem on x86-64"), and that made a 32-bit 'systemd' work happily on a 64-bit kernel because everything then worked the same way as on a 32-bit kernel. But it turned out that 'automount' had actually known and worked around this problem in user space, so fixing the kernel to do the proper 32-bit compatibility handling actually *broke* 32-bit automount on a 64-bit kernel, because it knew that the packet sizes were wrong and expected those incorrect sizes. As a result, we ended up reverting that compatibility mode fix, and thus breaking systemd again, in commit fcbf94b9. With both automount and systemd doing a single read() system call, and verifying that they get *exactly* the size they expect but using different sizes, it seemed that fixing one of them inevitably seemed to break the other. At one point, a patch I seriously considered applying from Michael Tokarev did a "strcmp()" to see if it was automount that was doing the operation. Ugly, ugly. However, a prettier solution exists now thanks to the packetized pipe mode. By marking the communication pipe as being packetized (by simply setting the O_DIRECT flag), we can always just write the bigger packet size, and if user-space does a smaller read, it will just get that partial end result and the extra alignment padding will simply be thrown away. This makes both automount and systemd happy, since they now get the size they asked for, and the kernel side of autofs simply no longer needs to care - it could pad out the packet arbitrarily. Of course, if there is some *other* user of autofs (please, please, please tell me it ain't so - and we haven't heard of any) that tries to read the packets with multiple writes, that other user will now be broken - the whole point of the packetized mode is that one system call gets exactly one packet, and you cannot read a packet in pieces.

The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that as a special packetized mode. When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own. The pipe buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer). End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at a time. You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway), and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of the packet. NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops. Also note that big packets will currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF). Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to explicitly support bigger packets some day. The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface, allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes (which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes). But user space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface. Tested-by:

This reverts commit a32744d4. While that commit was technically the right thing to do, and made the x86-64 compat mode work identically to native 32-bit mode (and thus fixing the problem with a 32-bit systemd install on a 64-bit kernel), it turns out that the automount binaries had workarounds for this compat problem. Now, the workarounds are disgusting: doing an "uname()" to find out the architecture of the kernel, and then comparing it for the 64-bit cases and fixing up the size of the read() in automount for those. And they were confused: it's not actually a generic 64-bit issue at all, it's very much tied to just x86-64, which has different alignment for an 'u64' in 64-bit mode than in 32-bit mode. But the end result is that fixing the compat layer actually breaks the case of a 32-bit automount on a x86-64 kernel. There are various approaches to fix this (including just doing a "strcmp()" on current->comm and comparing it to "automount"), but I think that I will do the one that teaches pipes about a special "packet mode", which will allow user space to not have to care too deeply about the padding at the end of the autofs packet. That change will make the compat workaround unnecessary, so let's revert it first, and get automount working again in compat mode. The packetized pipes will then fix autofs for systemd.

When a CPU is hotplugged off, we migrate any IRQs currently affine to it away and onto another online CPU by calling the irq_set_affinity function of the relevant interrupt controller chip. This function returns either IRQ_SET_MASK_OK or IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY, to indicate whether irq_data.affinity was updated. If we are forcefully migrating an interrupt (because the affinity mask no longer identifies any online CPUs) then we should update the IRQ affinity mask to reflect the new CPU set. Failure to do so can potentially leave /proc/irq/n/smp_affinity identifying only offline CPUs, which may confuse userspace IRQ balancing daemons. This patch updates migrate_one_irq to copy the affinity mask when the interrupt chip returns IRQ_SET_MASK_OK after forcefully changing the affinity of an interrupt.

When performing a kexec on an SMP system, the secondary cores are stopped by calling machine_shutdown(), which in turn issues IPIs to offline the other CPUs. Unfortunately, this isn't enough to reboot the cores into a new kernel (since they are just executing a cpu_relax loop somewhere in memory) so we make use of platform_cpu_kill, part of the CPU hotplug implementation, to place the cores somewhere safe. This function expects to be called on the killing CPU for each core that it takes out. This patch moves the platform_cpu_kill callback out of the IPI handler and into smp_send_stop, therefore ensuring that it executes on the killing CPU rather than on the victim, matching what the hotplug code requires.

TPIDRURW is a user read/write register forming part of the group of thread registers in more recent versions of the ARM architecture (~v6+). Currently, the kernel does not touch this register, which allows tasks to communicate covertly by reading and writing to the register without context-switching affecting its contents. This patch clears TPIDRURW when TPIDRURO is updated via the set_tls macro, which is called directly from __switch_to. Since the current behaviour makes the register useless to userspace as far as thread pointers are concerned, simply clearing the register (rather than saving and restoring it) will not cause any problems to userspace.

Clearing bit 5 of CACHE_MODE_0 is necessary to prevent GPU hangs in OpenGL programs such as Google MapsGL, Google Earth, and gzdoom when using separate stencil buffers. Without it, the GPU tries to use the LRA eviction policy, which isn't supported. This was supposed to be off by default, but seems to be on for many machines. This cannot be done in gen6_init_clock_gating with most of the other workaround bits; the render ring needs to exist. Otherwise, the register write gets dropped on the floor (one printk will show it changed, but a second printk immediately following shows the value reverts to the old one).

Merge tag 'stable/for-linus-3.4-rc4-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen Pull Xen fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: "Some of these had been in existence since the 2.6.27 days, some since 3.0 - and some due to new features added in v3.4. The one that is most interesting is David's one - in the low-level assembler code we had be checking events needlessly. With his patch now we do it when the appropriate flag is set - with the added benefit that we can process events faster. Stefano's is fixing a mistake where the Linux IRQ numbers were ACK-ed instead of the Xen IRQ, resulting in missing interrupts. The other ones are bootup related that can show up on various hardware." - In the low-level assembler code we would jump to check events even if none were present. This incorrect behavior had been there since 2.6.27 days! - When using the fast-path for ACK-ing interrupts we were using the Linux IRQ numbers instead of the Xen ones (and they can differ) and missing interrupts in process. - Fix bootup crashes when ACPI hotplug CPUs were present and they would expand past the set number of CPUs we were allocated. - Deal with broken BIOSes when uploading C-states to the hypervisor. - Disable the cpuid check for MWAIT_LEAF if the ACPI PAD driver is loaded. If the ACPI PAD driver is used it will crash, so lets not export the functionality so the ACPI PAD driver won't load. * tag 'stable/for-linus-3.4-rc4-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen: xen: correctly check for pending events when restoring irq flags xen/acpi: Workaround broken BIOSes exporting non-existing C-states. xen/smp: Fix crash when booting with ACPI hotplug CPUs. xen: use the pirq number to check the pirq_eoi_map xen/enlighten: Disable MWAIT_LEAF so that acpi-pad won't be loaded.
