While 44003728 "[PATCH] switch all filesystems over to d_obtain_alias" removed some cases where fh_to_dentry() and fh_to_parent() could return NULL, there are still a few NULL returns left in individual filesystems. Thus it was a mistake for that commit to remove the handling of NULL returns in the callers. Revert those parts of 44003728 which removed the NULL handling. (We could, alternatively, modify all implementations to return -ESTALE instead of NULL, but that proves to require fixing a number of filesystems, and in some cases it's arguably more natural to return NULL.)

Changeset a238b790 (Call fasync() functions without the BKL) introduced a race which could leave file->f_flags in a state inconsistent with what the underlying driver/filesystem believes. Revert that change, and also fix the same races in ioctl_fioasync() and ioctl_fionbio(). This is a minimal, short-term fix; the real fix will not involve the BKL.

There's no point in having too short SG_IO timeouts, since if the command does end up timing out, we'll end up through the reset sequence that is several seconds long in order to abort the command that timed out. As a result, shorter timeouts than a few seconds simply do not make sense, as the recovery would be longer than the timeout itself. Add a BLK_MIN_SG_TIMEOUT to match the existign BLK_DEFAULT_SG_TIMEOUT.

This reverts commit 558073dd, along with the failed try to fix the regression it caused ("ACPI: Fix ACPI battery regression introduced by commit 558073"), which just made things worse. Commit aaad0776 (that failed "Fix ACPI battery regression") got the voltage conversion confused, and fixed the problem with Rafael's battery monitor apparently just by mistake. So revert them both, getting us back to the 2.6.27 state in this, and let's revisit it when people understand what's going on. Noted-by: Paul Martin <pm@debian.org> Requested-by: Rafael J.

Under my 2.6.28-rc6 sparc64, when associating to an AP through my zd1211rw device, I was seeing kernel log messages like (not exact output): Kernel unaligned access at TPC[10129b68] zd_mac_rx+0x144/0x32c [zd1211rw] For the zd1211rw module, on RX, the 80211 packet will be located after the PLCP header in the skb data buffer. The PLCP header being 5 bytes long, the 80211 header will start unaligned from an aligned skb buffer. As per Documentation/unaligned-memory-access.txt, we must replace the not unaligned() safe compare_ether_addr() with memcmp() to protect architectures that require alignment.

After fixing zd1211rw: use unaligned safe memcmp() in-place of compare_ether_addr(), I started to see kernel log messages detailing unaligned access: Kernel unaligned access at TPC[100f7f44] sta_info_get+0x24/0x68 [mac80211] As with the aforementioned patch, the unaligned access was eminating from a compare_ether_addr() call. Concerned that whilst it was safe to assume that unalignment was the norm for the zd1211rw, and take preventative measures, it may not be the case or acceptable to use the easy fix of changing the call to memcmp(). My research however indicated that it was OK to do this, as there are a few instances where memcmp() is the preferred mechanism for doing mac address comparisons throughout the module.

In "ipw2200: Call netif_*_queue() interfaces properly", netif_stop_queue() and netif_wake_queue() were removed with the reason "netif_carrier_{on,off}() handles starting and stopping packet flow into the driver". The patch also removes a valid condition check that ipw_tx_skb() cannot be called if device is not in STATUS_ASSOCIATED state. But netif_carrier_off() doesn't guarantee netdev->hard_start_xmit won't be called because linkwatch event is handled in a delayed workqueue. This caused a kernel oops reported by Frank Seidel: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=397390 This patch fixes the problem by moving the STATUS_ASSOCIATED check back to ipw_tx_skb(). It also adds a missing netif_carrier_off() call to ipw_disassociate().

This patch cleans uCode key table bit map iwl_clear_stations_table since all stations are cleared also the key table must be. Since the keys are not removed properly on suspend by mac80211 this may result in exhausting key table on resume leading to memory corruption during removal This patch also fixes a memory corruption problem reported in http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=122641417231586&w=2 and tracked in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12040. When the key is removed a second time the offset is set to 255 - this index is not valid for the ucode_key_table and corrupts the eeprom pointer (which is 255 bits from ucode_key_table).

-
Dave Chinner authored
When project quota is active and is being used for directory tree quota control, we disallow rename outside the current directory tree. This requires a check to be made after all the inodes involved in the rename are locked. We fail to unlock the inodes correctly if we disallow the rename when the target is outside the current directory tree. This results in a hang on the next access to the inodes involved in failed rename.

This patch fixes a bug in tcp_vegas.c. At the moment this code leaves ssthresh untouched. However, this means that the vegas congestion control algorithm is effectively unable to reduce cwnd below the ssthresh value (if the vegas update lowers the cwnd below ssthresh, then slow start is activated to raise it back up). One example where this matters is when during slow start cwnd overshoots the link capacity and a flow then exits slow start with ssthresh set to a value above where congestion avoidance would like to adjust it.
