It didn't allocate space for the final terminating entry, which caused it to overwrite the next slab entry, which in turn sometimes ended up being a slab array cache pointer. End result: total slab cache corruption at a random time afterwards. Very nasty.

Someone thought it would be clever if proc code ignores removal of non-existent entries. Hence, we missed that /proc/net/stat/ip_conntrack is never removed on module removal or init failure. Found by nfsim. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

The latter hunk of the forwarded patch has already been applied, so please apply the patch as it appears in the un-forwarded part. I've taken some liberties in adding the Acked/Signed-off lines in what I hope is an agreeable way.

mm/memory.c:1944:6: missing binary operator before token "long" The preprocessor doesn't like the typecast.... PTRS_PER_PGD isn't used in assembly code, so this looks to be safe enough..

Converted to true 4levels. The address space per process is expanded to 47bits now, the supported physical address space is 46bits. Lmbench fork/exit numbers are down a few percent because it has to walk much more pagetables, but some planned future optimizations will hopefully recover it. See Documentation/x86_64/mm.txt for more details on the memory map. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Converted to pud_t by Nick Piggin.

Add a temporary "fallback" header so architectures can run with the 4level patgetables patch without modification. All architectures should be converted to use the folding headers (include/asm-generic/pgtable-nop?d.h) as soon as possible, and the fallback header removed. Make all architectures include the fallback header, except i386, because that architecture has earlier been converted to use pgtable-nopmd.h under the 3 level system, which is not compatible with the fallback header.

Extend the Linux MM to 4level page tables. This is the core patch for mm/*, fs/*, include/linux/* It breaks all architectures, which will be fixed in separate patches. The conversion is quite straight forward. All the functions walking the page table hierarchy have been changed to deal with another level at the top. The additional level is called pml4. mm/memory.c has changed a lot because it did most of the heavy lifting here. Most of the changes here are extensions of the previous code. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Converted by Nick Piggin to use the pud_t 'page upper' level between pgd and pmd instead of Andi's pml4 level above pgd.

Rename clear_page_tables to clear_page_range. clear_page_range takes byte ranges, and aggressively frees page table pages. Maybe useful to control page table memory consumption on 4-level architectures (and even 3 level ones). Possible downsides are: - flush_tlb_pgtables gets called more often (only a problem for sparc64 AFAIKS). - the opportunistic "expand to fill PGDIR_SIZE hole" logic that ensures something actually gets done under the old system is still in place. This could sometimes make unmapping small regions more inefficient. There are some other solutions to look at if this is the case though.
