[PATCH] NFS: fix client oops when debugging is on

nfs_readpage_release() causes an oops while accessing a file with NFS
debugging turned on (echo 32767 > /proc/sys/sunrpc/nfs_debug) and a kernel
built with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB.

This patch moves the debugging statement above nfs_release_request() to
avoid accessing freed memory.

[PATCH] Fix bd_claim() error code.

Problem: In some circumstances, bd_claim() is returning the wrong error
code.

If we try to swapon an unused block device that isn't swap formatted, we
get -EINVAL.  But if that same block device is already mounted, we instead
get -EBUSY, even though it still isn't a valid swap device.

This issue came up on the busybox list trying to get the error message
from "swapon -a" right.  If a swap device is already enabled, we get -EBUSY,
and we shouldn't report this as an error.  But we can't distinguish the two
-EBUSY conditions, which are very different errors.

In the code, bd_claim() returns either 0 or -EBUSY, but in this case busy
means "somebody other than sys_swapon has already claimed this", and
_that_ means this block device can't be a valid swap device.  So return
-EINVAL there.

[PATCH] uml: avoid fixing faults while atomic

Following i386, we should maybe refuse trying to fault in pages when we're
doing atomic operations, because to handle the fault we could need to take
already taken spinlocks.

Also, if we're doing an atomic operation (in the sense of in_atomic()) we're
surely in kernel mode and we're surely going to handle adequately the failed
fault, so it's safe to behave this way.

Currently, on UML SMP is rarely used, and we don't support PREEMPT, so this is
unlikely to create problems right now, but it might in the future.

The current code doesn't handle well general protection faults on the host -

general protection faults, that address is not accessible, so we'd better
assume we couldn't satisfy the fault.  Currently instead we think we've fixed
it, so we go back, retry the instruction and fault again endlessly.

This leads to the kernel hanging when doing copy_from_user(dest, -1, ...) in
TT mode, since reading *(-1) causes a GFP, and we don't support kernel

Daniel Ritz [Thu, 22 Sep 2005 07:47:11 +0000 (00:47 -0700)]
[PATCH] Driver Core: fis bus rescan devices race

bus_rescan_devices_helper() does not hold the dev->sem when it checks for
!dev->driver().  device_attach() holds the sem, but calls again
device_bind_driver() even when dev->driver is set.

What happens is that a first device_attach() call (module insertion time)
is on the way binding the device to a driver.  Another thread calls
bus_rescan_devices().  Now when bus_rescan_devices_helper() checks for
dev->driver it is still NULL 'cos the the prior device_attach() is not yet
finished.  But as soon as the first one releases the dev->sem the second
device_attach() tries to rebind the already bound device again.
device_bind_driver() does this blindly which leads to a corrupt
driver->klist_devices list (the device links itself, the head points to the
device).  Later a call to device_release_driver() sets dev->driver to NULL
and breaks the link it has to itself on knode_driver.  Rmmoding the driver
later calls driver_detach() which leads to an endless loop 'cos the list
head in klist_devices still points to the device.  And since dev->driver is
NULL it's stuck with the same device forever.  Boom.  And rmmod hangs.

Very easy to reproduce with new-style pcmcia and a 16bit card.  Just loop
modprobe <pcmcia-modules> ;cardctl eject; rmmod <card driver, pcmcia
modules>.

Easiest fix is to check if the device is already bound to a driver in
device_bind_driver().  This avoids the double binding.

That comment is plain wrong (we even take the pagetable lock inside
unmap_region()).

We currently unregister the config-osm driver if initialization of the
legacy ioctl() handlers failed but still return success.  We should be
returning -EBUSY in this case.

[PATCH] ppc64: Build zImage.vmode for G5

zImage.vmode was recently added.  It's a version of zImage in which the ELF
note section used by open firmware indicates that it requires a virtual
mode instance of OF instead of real mode.  This allows it to work with
Apple OF, and thus is directly bootable (or netbootable) from OF command
line.  (Unfortunately, pSeries OF sort-of requires real mode and Apple OF
sort-of requires virtual mode, and both tend to be unhappy if no notes
section specifies the mode at all).

However, we forgot to add zImage.vmode to the default G5 build. This
fixes it.

[PATCH] ppc64: Fix issue with non zero boot cpu

The new version of the flattened device tree passes the boot cpuid in the
header instead of via a linux,boot-cpu property.

We need to update the in kernel OF parsing code to do this, otherwise
