Brian Wang reported that a FUSE filesystem exported through NFS could return I/O errors on read. This was traced to splice_direct_to_actor() returning a short or zero count when racing with page invalidation. However this is not FUSE or NFSD specific, other filesystems (notably NFS) also call invalidate_inode_pages2() to purge stale data from the cache. If this happens while such pages are sitting in a pipe buffer, then splice(2) from the pipe can return zero, and read(2) from the pipe can return ENODATA. The zero return is especially bad, since it implies end-of-file or disconnected pipe/socket, and is documented as such for splice. But returning an error for read() is also nasty, when in fact there was no error (data becoming stale is not an error). The same problems can be triggered by "hole punching" with madvise(MADV_REMOVE). Fix this by not clearing the PG_uptodate flag on truncation and invalidation.

I asked legal about the licensing of ftrace.txt, and they told me that, unless the Documentation directory is specifically set up to handle non GPL licenses (which it does not appear to be), then it would be best to put ftrace.txt under the GPL.

Currently function tty_ldisc_get() tries to load an ldisc driver module only when tty_ldisc_try_get() returns -EAGAIN. This happens only if module is being unloaded. If ldisc module is not loaded tty_ldisc_try_get() returns -EINVAL and this case is not handled in tty_ldisc_get(), so request_module() is not called. Attached patch fixes this by calling request_module() if tty_ldisc_try_get() returned any error code. I discovered this when my UMTS modem stopped working with 2.6.27-rc1 because module ppp_async was not loaded.

Some platform decide whether they support huge pages at boot time. On these, such as powerpc, HPAGE_SHIFT is a variable, not a constant, and is set to 0 when there is no such support. The patches to introduce multiple huge pages support broke that causing the kernel to crash at boot time on machines such as POWER3 which lack support for multiple page sizes.

VMLINUX_SYMBOL adds a prefix charactor. You can't just use straight symbol names in common header files as they dont take into consideration weird arch-specific ABI conventions. in the case of Blackfin/h8300, the ABI dictates that any C-visible symbols have an underscore prefixed to them. Thus all symbols in vmlinux.lds.h need to be wrapped in VMLINUX_SYMBOL() so that each arch can put hide this magic in their own files.

Each resource should be printed on its own line, so start snprintf'ing at the beginning of the buffer every time through the loop. Also, use scnprintf() rather than snprintf() when building up the buffer to print. scnprintf() returns the number of characters actually written into the buffer (not including the trailing NULL). snprintf() returns the number of characters that *would be* written, assuming everything would fit in the buffer. That's nice if we want to resize the buffer to make sure everything fits, but in this case, I just want to keep from overflowing the buffer, and it's OK if the output is truncated. Using snprintf() meant that my "len" could grow to be more than the the buffer size, which makes "sizeof(buf) - len" negative, which causes this alarming WARN_ON: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121736480005656&w=2 More useful snprintf/scnprintf discussion: http://lwn.net/Articles/69419/Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Reported-by: Pete Clements <clem@clem.clem-digital.net> Cc: Rene Herman <rene.herman@keyaccess.nl> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

My commit 2b2a1ff6 introduced a regression (sorry about that) for the odd case of exit_signal=0 (e.g. clone_flags=0). This is not a normal use, but it's used by a case in the glibc test suite. Dying with exit_signal=0 sends no signal, but it's supposed to wake up a parent's blocked wait*() calls (unlike the delayed_group_leader case). This fixes tracehook_notify_death() and its caller to distinguish a "signal 0" wakeup from the delayed_group_leader case (with no wakeup).
