`select' doesn't work very well. With alpha `make allmodconfig' we end up with CONFIG_STACKTRACE enabled, so we end up with undefined save_stacktrace() at link time. Cc: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com> Cc: Don Mullis <dwm@meer.net> Signed-off-by:

- Fix some spelling and grammatical errors - Make the Kconfig menu more conventional. First you select fault-injection, then under that you select particular clients of it. Cc: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@gmail.com> Cc: Don Mullis <dwm@meer.net> Signed-off-by:

This patch provides stacktrace filtering feature. The stacktrace filter allows failing only for the caller you are interested in. For example someone may want to inject kmalloc() failures into only e100 module. they want to inject not only direct kmalloc() call, but also indirect allocation, too. - e100_poll --> netif_receive_skb --> packet_rcv_spkt --> skb_clone --> kmem_cache_alloc This patch enables to detect function calls like this by stacktrace and inject failures. The script Documentaion/fault-injection/failmodule.sh helps it. The range of text section of loaded e100 is expected to be [/sys/module/e100/sections/.text, /sys/module/e100/sections/.exit.text) So failmodule.sh stores these values into /debug/failslab/address-start and /debug/failslab/address-end. The maximum stacktrace depth is specified by /debug/failslab/stacktrace-depth. Please see the example that demonstrates how to inject slab allocation failures only for a specific module in Documentation/fault-injection/fault-injection.txt [dwm@meer.net: reject failure if any caller lies within specified range] Signed-off-by:

This patch provides process filtering feature. The process filter allows failing only permitted processes by /proc/<pid>/make-it-fail Please see the example that demostrates how to inject slab allocation failures into module init/cleanup code in Documentation/fault-injection/fault-injection.txt Signed-off-by:

This patch provides fault-injection capability for disk IO. Boot option: fail_make_request=<probability>,<interval>,<space>,<times> <interval> -- specifies the interval of failures. <probability> -- specifies how often it should fail in percent. <space> -- specifies the size of free space where disk IO can be issued safely in bytes. <times> -- specifies how many times failures may happen at most. Debugfs: /debug/fail_make_request/interval /debug/fail_make_request/probability /debug/fail_make_request/specifies /debug/fail_make_request/times Example: fail_make_request=10,100,0,-1 echo 1 > /sys/blocks/hda/hda1/make-it-fail generic_make_request() on /dev/hda1 fails once per 10 times.

This patch provides fault-injection capability for alloc_pages() Boot option: fail_page_alloc=<interval>,<probability>,<space>,<times> <interval> -- specifies the interval of failures. <probability> -- specifies how often it should fail in percent. <space> -- specifies the size of free space where memory can be allocated safely in pages. <times> -- specifies how many times failures may happen at most.

This patch set provides some fault-injection capabilities. - kmalloc() failures - alloc_pages() failures - disk IO errors We can see what really happens if those failures happen. In order to enable these fault-injection capabilities: 1. Enable relevant config options (CONFIG_FAILSLAB, CONFIG_PAGE_ALLOC, CONFIG_MAKE_REQUEST) and if you want to configure them via debugfs, enable CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS. 2. Build and boot with this kernel 3. Configure fault-injection capabilities behavior by boot option or debugfs - Boot option failslab= fail_page_alloc= fail_make_request= - Debugfs /debug/failslab/* /debug/fail_page_alloc/* /debug/fail_make_request/* Please refer to the Documentation/fault-injection/fault-injection.txt for details. 4. See what really happens. Signed-off-by: -

There's a potential problem in isdn_ppp.c::isdn_ppp_decompress(). dev_alloc_skb() may fail and return NULL. If it does we will be passing a NULL skb_out to ipc->decompress() and may also end up dereferencing a NULL pointer at *proto = isdn_ppp_strip_proto(skb_out); Correct this by testing 'skb_out' against NULL early and bail out.

Jiri Slaby authored
Save 3 indent levels in interrupt routine by moving the code to a separate function. This needs to be done to allow Lindent do its work, since only 4 columns are used for indenting now and hence Lindent makes a big mess in the code, when moves it 4*5 columns to the right. Signed-off-by:
