Linus Torvalds authored
This reverts commit 59365d13. It turns out that this can break certain existing user land setups. Quoth Sarah Sharp: "On Wednesday, I updated my branch to commit 460781b5 from linus' tree, and my box would not boot. klogd segfaulted, which stalled the whole system. At first I thought it actually hung the box, but it continued booting after 5 minutes, and I was able to log in. It dropped back to the text console instead of the graphical bootup display for that period of time. dmesg surprisingly still works. I've bisected the problem down to this commit (commit 59365d13) The box is running klogd 1.5.5ubuntu3 (from Jaunty). Yes, I know that's old. I read the bit in the commit about changing the permissions of kallsyms after boot, but if I can't boot that doesn't help." So let's just keep the old default, and encourage distributions to do the "chmod -r /proc/kallsyms" in their bootup scripts. This is not worth a kernel option to change default behavior, since it's so easily done in user space.

Keith Packard authored
Both IBX and CPT have an automatic hotplug detection mode which appears to work reliably enough that we can dispense with the manual force hotplug trigger stuff. This means that hotplug detection is as simple as reading the current hotplug register values. The first time the hotplug detection is activated, the code synchronously waits for a hotplug sequence in case the hardware hasn't bothered to do a detection cycle since being initialized.

Linus Torvalds found that it was rather trivial to trigger a system freeze: In fact, with lockdep, I don't even need to do the sysrq-d thing: it shows the bug as it happens. It's the X server taking the same lock recursively. Here's the problem: ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] 2.6.37-rc2-00012-gbdbd01ac #7 --------------------------------------------- Xorg/2816 is trying to acquire lock: (&dev->struct_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff812c626c>] i915_gem_fault+0x50/0x17e but task is already holding lock: (&dev->struct_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff812c403b>] i915_mutex_lock_interruptible+0x28/0x4a other info that might help us debug this: 2 locks held by Xorg/2816: #0: (&dev->struct_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff812c403b>] i915_mutex_lock_interruptible+0x28/0x4a #1: (&mm->mmap_sem){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff81022d4f>] page_fault+0x156/0x37b This recursion was introduced by rearranging the locking to avoid the double locking on the fast path (4f27b5d and fbd5a26d) and the introduction of the prefault to encourage the fast paths (b5e4f2b). In order to undo the problem, we rearrange the code to perform the access validation upfront, attempt to prefault and then fight for control of the mutex. the best case scenario where the mutex is uncontended the prefaulting is not wasted.

IFLA_PROTINFO exposes timer related per device settings in jiffies. Change it to expose these values in msecs like the sysctl interface does. I did not find any users of IFLA_PROTINFO which rely on any of these values and even if there are, they are likely already broken because there is no way for them to reliably convert such a value to another time format.

This really isn't the right thing to do, and strictly speaking we should have the BKL depth count in the thread info right next to the preempt count. The two really do go together. However, since that would involve a patch to all architectures, and the BKL is finally going away, it's simply not worth the effort to do the RightThing(tm). Just re-instate the <linux/sched.h> include that we used to get accidentally from the smp_lock.h one. This is all fallout from the same old "BKL: remove extraneous #include <smp_lock.h>" commit.

netif_set_real_num_rx_queues() can decrement and increment the number of rx queues. For example ixgbe does this as features and offloads are toggled. Presumably this could also happen across down/up on most devices if the available resources changed (cpu offlined). The kobject needs to be zero'd in this case so that the state is not preserved across kobject_put()/kobject_init_and_add(). This resolves the following error report. ixgbe 0000:03:00.0: eth2: NIC Link is Up 10 Gbps, Flow Control: RX/TX kobject (ffff880324b83210): tried to init an initialized object, something is seriously wrong.
