[PATCH] uml ubd driver: ubd_io_lock usage fixup

Add some comments about requirements for ubd_io_lock and expand its use.

When an irq signals that the "controller" (i.e.  another thread on the host,
which does the actual requests and is the only one blocked on I/O on the host)
has done some work, we call again the request function ourselves
(do_ubd_request).

We now do that with ubd_io_lock held - that's useful to protect against
concurrent calls to elv_next_request and so on.

XXX: Maybe we shouldn't call at all the request function.  Input needed on
this.  Are we supposed to plug and unplug the queue?  That code "indirectly"
does that by setting a flag, called do_ubd, which makes the request function
return (it's a residual of 2.4 block layer interface).

Meanwhile, however, merge this patch, which improves things.

beyond that, during such setup memory allocations must be performed and some

add_bd_holder() is called from bd_claim_by_kobject to put a given struct

There are 3 possible results of add_bd_holder():

  2. there is matching entry, so just increment reference count of

  3. something failed during its course

1 and 2 are successful cases.  But for case 2, someone has to free the
unused struct bd_holder.

The current code frees it inside of add_bd_holder and returns same value
0 for both cases 1 and 2.  However, it's natural and less error-prone if

Neil Brown [Mon, 30 Oct 2006 06:46:45 +0000 (22:46 -0800)]
[PATCH] sunrpc: fix refcounting problems in rpc servers

A recent patch fixed a problem which would occur when the refcount on an
auth_domain reached zero.  This problem has not been reported in practice
despite existing in two major kernel releases because the refcount can
never reach zero.

This patch fixes the problems that stop the refcount reaching zero.

1/ We were adding to the refcount when inserting in the hash table,
   but only removing from the hashtable when the refcount reached zero.
   Obviously it never would.  So don't count the implied reference of
   being in the hash table.

2/ There are two paths on which a socket can be destroyed.  One called
   svcauth_unix_info_release().  The other didn't.  So when the other was
   taken, we can lose a reference to an ip_map which in-turn holds a
   reference to an auth_domain

   So unify the exit paths into svc_sock_put.  This highlights the fact
   that svc_delete_socket has slightly odd semantics - it does not drop
   a reference but probably should.  Fixing this need a bit more
   thought and testing.

If _syscallX macros will be removed from the kernel tree altogether, the
only reasonable solution for that piece of code is switching to open-coded

As per Guennadi Liakhovetski, the mac address change support code breaks
some normal uses (_without_ any address changes), and until it's all
sorted out, we're better off without it.

Says Francois:

  "Go revert it.

   Despite what I claimed, I can not find a third-party confirmation by
   email that it works elsewhere.

   It would probably be enough to remove the call to

[PATCH] Fix GFP_HIGHMEM slab panic

As reported by Martin J. Bligh <mbligh@google.com>, we let through some
non-slab bits to slab allocation through __get_vm_area_node when doing a
vmalloc.

I haven't been able to reproduce this, although I understand why it
happens: vmalloc allocates memory with

GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_HIGHMEM

and commit 52fd24ca1db3a741f144bbc229beefe044202cac resulted in the same
flags are passed down to cache_alloc_refill, causing the BUG.  The
following patch fixes it.

Note that when calling kmalloc_node, I am masking off __GFP_HIGHMEM with
GFP_LEVEL_MASK, whereas __vmalloc_area_node does the same with

~(__GFP_HIGHMEM | __GFP_ZERO).

IMHO, using GFP_LEVEL_MASK is preferable, but either should fix this
problem.

[PATCH] __vmalloc with GFP_ATOMIC causes 'sleeping from invalid context'

If __vmalloc is called to allocate memory with GFP_ATOMIC in atomic
context, the chain of calls results in __get_vm_area_node allocating memory
for vm_struct with GFP_KERNEL, causing the 'sleeping from invalid context'
warning.  This patch fixes it by passing the gfp flags along so
__get_vm_area_node allocates memory for vm_struct with the same flags.

[PATCH] memory hotplug: __GFP_NOWARN is better for __kmalloc_section_memmap()

Add __GFP_NOWARN flag to calling of __alloc_pages() in
__kmalloc_section_memmap().  It can reduce noisy failure message.

In ia64, section size is 1 GB, this means that order 8 pages are necessary
for each section's memmap.  It is often very hard requirement under heavy
memory pressure as you know.  So, __alloc_pages() gives up allocation and
shows many noisy stack traces which means no page for each sections.
(Current my environment shows 32 times of stack trace....)

But, __kmalloc_section_memmap() calls vmalloc() after failure of it, and it
can succeed allocation of memmap.  So, its stack trace warning becomes just
noisy.  I suppose it shouldn't be shown.
