time: remove obsolete CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST

The first version of the ntp_interval/tick_length inconsistent usage patch was
recently merged as bbe4d18ac2e058c56adb0cd71f49d9ed3216a405

http://git.kernel.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=bbe4d18ac2e058c56adb0cd71f49d9ed3216a405

While the fix did greatly improve the situation, it was correctly pointed out
by Roman that it does have a small bug: If the users change clocksources after
the system has been running and NTP has made corrections, the correctoins made
against the old clocksource will be applied against the new clocksource,
causing error.

The second attempt, which corrects the issue in the NTP_INTERVAL_LENGTH
definition has also made it up-stream as commit
e13a2e61dd5152f5499d2003470acf9c838eab84

Roman has correctly pointed out that CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST is calculated
based on the PIT's frequency, and isn't really relevant to non-PIT
driven clocksources (that is, clocksources other then jiffies and pit).

This patch reverts both of those changes, and simply removes
CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST.

This does remove the granularity error correction for users of PIT and Jiffies
clocksource users, but the granularity error but for the majority of users, it
should be within the 500ppm range NTP can accommodate for.

For systems that have granularity errors greater then 500ppm, the
"ntp_tick_adj=" boot option can be used to compensate.

The debugger ignores or zeros the high half of every register slot it

that the setting of the low 32 bits always has the same meaning as a

facilities.

This never arose before because the syscall restart check never

gigaset: fix Oops on module unload regression

The card state mutex was only initialized when a device was connected,
but used during unload unconditionally, leading to an Oops if a driver
was loaded and unloaded again without ever connecting a device.

Fix this by initializing the mutex as soon as the structure is allocated.
Also add a missing mutex unlock revealed in the same execution path.

This fixes a possible Oops in 2.6.25-rc that was introduced by commit

sched: balance RT task resched only on runqueue

Sripathi Kodi reported a crash in the -rt kernel:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435674

this is due to a place that can reschedule a task without holding
the tasks runqueue lock.  This was caused by the RT balancing code
that pulls RT tasks to the current run queue and will reschedule the
current task.

There's a slight chance that the pulling of the RT tasks will release
the current runqueue's lock and retake it (in the double_lock_balance).
During this time that the runqueue is released, the current task can
migrate to another runqueue.

In the prio_changed_rt code, after the pull, if the current task is of
lesser priority than one of the RT tasks pulled, resched_task is called
on the current task. If the current task had migrated in that small
window, resched_task will be called without holding the runqueue lock
for the runqueue that the task is on.

This race condition also exists in the mainline kernel and this patch
adds a check to make sure the task hasn't migrated before calling
resched_task.

slab: NUMA slab allocator migration bugfix

NUMA slab allocator cpu migration bugfix

is not refreshing its local copies of what cpu and what
numa node it is on, when it drops and reacquires the irq
block that it inherited from its caller.  As a result
those values become invalid if an attempt to migrate the
process to another numa node occured while the irq block
had been dropped.

The solution is to make cache_alloc_refill reload these
variables whenever it drops and reacquires the irq block.

The error is very difficult to hit.  When it does occur,
one gets the following oops + stack traceback bits in

[IA64] update efi region debugging to use MB, GB and TB as well as KB

When EFI_DEBUG is defined to a non-zero value in arch/ia64/kernel/efi.c,
the efi memory regions are displayed. This patch enhances the
display code in a few ways:

1. Use TB, GB and MB as well as KB as units.
   Although this introduces rounding errors (KB doesn't as
   size is always a multiple of 4Kb), it does make
   things a lot more readable.

   Also as the range is also shown, it is possible to note the exact size
   if it is important. In my experience, the size field is mostly useful
   for getting a general idea of the size of a region.

   On the rx2620 that I use, there actually is an 8TB region (though not
   backed by physical memory, and 8TB really is a lot more readable than
   8589934592KB.

2. pad the size field with leading spaces to further improve readability

   ...
   ... (   8MB)

   ... (   3MB)
   ...

   vs

   ...
   ... (8MB)
   ... (928MB)
   ... (3MB)
   ...

3. Pad the attr field out to 64bits using leading zeros,
   to further improve readability.

   ...
   mem05: type= 2, attr=0x0000000000000008, range=[0x0000000004000000-0x000000000481f000) (   8MB)

16 years agoNFS: use new LSM interfaces to explicitly set mount options
Eric Paris [Wed, 5 Mar 2008 19:20:18 +0000 (14:20 -0500)]
NFS: use new LSM interfaces to explicitly set mount options

NFS and SELinux worked together previously because SELinux had NFS
specific knowledge built in.  This design was approved by both groups
back in 2004 but the recent NFS changes to use nfs_parsed_mount_data and
the usage of nfs_clone_mount_data showed this to be a poor fragile
solution.  This patch fixes the NFS functionality regression by making
use of the new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to explicitly set its own
mount options.

The explicit setting of mount options is done in the nfs get_sb
functions which are called before the generic vfs hooks try to set mount
options for filesystems which use text mount data.

This does not currently support NFSv4 as that functionality did not
exist in previous kernels and thus there is no regression.  I will be
adding the needed code, which I believe to be the exact same as the v3
code, in nfs4_get_sb for 2.6.26.

Eric Paris [Wed, 5 Mar 2008 15:31:54 +0000 (10:31 -0500)]
LSM/SELinux: Interfaces to allow FS to control mount options

Introduce new LSM interfaces to allow an FS to deal with their own mount
options.  This includes a new string parsing function exported from the
LSM that an FS can use to get a security data blob and a new security
data blob.  This is particularly useful for an FS which uses binary
mount data, like NFS, which does not pass strings into the vfs to be
handled by the loaded LSM.  Also fix a BUG() in both SELinux and SMACK
when dealing with binary mount data.  If the binary mount data is less
than one page the copy_page() in security_sb_copy_data() can cause an
illegal page fault and boom.  Remove all NFSisms from the SELinux code
since they were broken by past NFS changes.
