This fixes the bug that made the card DMA lots of data to random memory locations, causing lockups and instant reboots. The problem was that the yoffset variable got modified inside the loop, but the logic in the switch statement was meant to work on the initial value of the yoffset variable.

The "blocked_list" used for POSIX deadlock detection should only contain POSIX locks, or posix_locks_deadlock() can get confused. As I've noted before (but never posted a patch), we should probably stop checking for deadlock. POSIX says it's optional for an implementation to check for deadlock, and since the change to match on tgid, we can report a deadlock when none exists. [ Further explanation for Linus: POSIX locks and BSD locks don't block each other, so checking that the blocker is a POSIX lock also implies that the waiter is a POSIX lock. ]

We need to convert from bytes to blocks, and we also need to handle the fact that old smbd's will round up the disk usage bytecount to even multiples of 1MB, and gracefully fall back on an estimate based on the file size instead in that case. Acked by Samuel Thibault who noted the problem in the first place, and Jeremy Allison wrt smbd behavior. Signed-off-by: -

The recent addition of linux/bitops.h inside linux/kernel.h has created a circular dependency: asm/system.h -> linux/kernel.h -> linux/bitops.h -> asm/bitops.h -> asm/system.h which results in an unbuildable kernel. We appear not to need linux/kernel.h in asm/system.h, but do need linux/linkage.h, so make this the case.

From: Doug Dumitru <doug@easyco.com> I have been fighting a buffering error when sending large amounts of data out pty devices from UML. I have tried a couple of patches that did not really fix the problem (and were rightly rejected by the group), but have finally found the real bug. In /arch/um/drivers/line.c there is a function "buffer_data" that is responsible for storing data into the lines ring buffer. The function is "supposed" to return the number of characters actually buffered. Unfortunately, in the case where the buffer wraps, the "len" variable is decremented by "end" before it is used as the return parameter. Signed-off-by:

This makes UML load at 0x8048000 rather than 0xa0000000 when CONFIG_MODE_SKAS is on and CONFIG_MODE_TT is off. This will make it more valgrind-friendly, and also allow much greater physical memory sizes without needing to use highmem. Signed-off-by:

The following patch to the generic direct IO code fixes a problem we've come across that affects the way XFS interacts with it. Between 2.6.5 and 2.6.6 several changes to direct IO were made, in particular the fallback-to-buffered path was introduced in that timeframe. Those changes split the locking done within direct-io.c into two cases - generic filesystems and blkdev/XFS. There is no locking done for the second case, and we also never set the create parameter to the get_blocks call (via direct_io_worker ->do_direct_IO->get_more_blocks) for that case. This meant that XFS was accidentally no longer being told when a direct IO write was being performed, which in turn meant that XFS would (often - depending on the inode's size and bmap) tell get_more_blocks that it was mapping to a hole. It also means that currently all direct writes into XFS are falling back to buffered writes. Further, skipping the i_alloc_sem locking entirely is not correct for us, we are relying on that aspect of the generic locking. The fallback behaviour from direct to buffered is "silent", so we didn't actually pick up on these problems until just recently, unfortunately. The approach I've taken here is to split the blkdev/XFS case into two, and corrected the new third case behaviour for the functionality XFS provides. The generic behavior used by other filesystems remains unchanged, as does direct IO to the block device, and XFS now becomes fully functional. Signed-off-by:

Here is the fix for dio_new_bio() BUG() with fsx tests. The problem is, I changed dio_pages_in_io calculation to be exactly the number of pages we needed to map the user-buffer to do the IO. But with fine-grain alignment (non fs-blocksize), we may need 2 more pages (ZERO_PAGE) to zero out first and last block if needed. Here is the bug info. http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3447Signed-off-by:
