In ext2_rename(), dir_page is acquired through ext2_dotdot(). It is
then released through ext2_set_link() but only if old_dir != new_dir.
Failing that, the pkmap reference count is never decremented and the
page remains pinned forever. Repeat that a couple times with highmem
pages and all pkmap slots get exhausted, and every further kmap() calls
end up stalling on the pkmap_map_wait queue at which point the whole

* 'upstream-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jlbec/ocfs2:
ocfs2: ocfs2_write_begin_nolock() should handle len=0
ocfs2: invalidate dentry if its dentry_lock isn't initialized.
The whole write-room thing is something that is up to the _caller_ to
worry about, not the pty layer itself. The total buffer space will
still be limited by the buffering routines themselves, so there is no
advantage or need in having pty_write() artificially limit the size
somehow.
And what happened was that the caller (the n_tty line discipline, in
this case) may have verified that there is room for 2 bytes to be
written (for NL -> CRNL expansion), and it used to then do those writes
as two single-byte writes. And if the first byte written (CR) then
caused a new tty buffer to be allocated, pty_space() may have returned
zero when trying to write the second byte (LF), and then incorrectly
failed the write - leading to a lost newline character.
This should finally fix

When translating CR to CRNL in the n_tty line discipline, we did it as
two tty_put_char() calls. Which works, but is stupid, and has caused
problems before too with bad interactions with the write_room() logic.
The generic USB serial driver had that problem, for example.
Now the pty layer had similar issues after being moved to the generic
tty buffering code (in commit d945cb9cce:
"pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic").
So stop doing the silly separate two writes, and do it as a single write
instead. That's what the n_tty layer already does for the space
expansion of tabs (XTABS), and it means that we'll now always have just
a single write for the CRNL to match the single 'tty_write_room()' test,
which hopefully means that the next time somebody screws up buffering,
it won't cause weeks of debugging.

Tom Horsley reports that his debugger hangs when it tries to read
/proc/pid_of_tracee/maps, this happens since
"mm_for_maps: take ->cred_guard_mutex to fix the race with exec"
04b836cbf19e885f8366bccb2e4b0474346c02d
commit in 2.6.31.
But the root of the problem lies in the fact that do_execve() path calls
tracehook_report_exec() which can stop if the tracer sets PT_TRACE_EXEC.
The tracee must not sleep in TASK_TRACED holding this mutex. Even if we
remove ->cred_guard_mutex from mm_for_maps() and proc_pid_attr_write(),
another task doing PTRACE_ATTACH should not hang until it is killed or the
tracee resumes.
With this patch do_execve() does not use ->cred_guard_mutex directly and
we do not hold it throughout, instead:
- introduce prepare_bprm_creds() helper, it locks the mutex
and calls prepare_exec_creds() to initialize bprm->cred.
- install_exec_creds() drops the mutex after commit_creds(),
and thus before tracehook_report_exec()->ptrace_stop().
or, if exec fails,
free_bprm() drops this mutex when bprm->cred != NULL which
indicates install_exec_creds() was not called.

On low-memory systems, anti-fragmentation gets disabled as fragmentation
cannot be avoided on a sufficiently large boundary to be worthwhile. Once
disabled, there is a period of time when all the pageblocks are marked
MOVABLE and the expectation is that they get marked UNMOVABLE at each call
to __rmqueue_fallback().
However, when MAX_ORDER is large the pageblocks do not change ownership
because the normal criteria are not met. This has the effect of
prematurely breaking up too many large contiguous blocks. This is most
serious on NOMMU systems which depend on high-order allocations to boot.
This patch causes pageblocks to change ownership on every fallback when
anti-fragmentation is disabled. This prevents the large blocks being
prematurely broken up.
This is a fix to commit 49255c619f [page
allocator: move check for disabled anti-fragmentation out of fastpath] and
the problem affects 2.6.31-rc8.

Fix the error handling in do_mmap_pgoff(). If do_mmap_shared_file() or

To get around this, we can afford to add the region to the region tree

cancel_delayed_work() has to use del_timer_sync() to guarantee the timer
function is not running after return. But most users doesn't actually
need this, and del_timer_sync() has problems: it is not useable from
interrupt, and it depends on every lock which could be taken from irq.
Introduce __cancel_delayed_work() which calls del_timer() instead.
The immediate reason for this patch is

Functions invoked early when booting up a cpu can't use
tracing because mcount requires a valid 'current_thread_info()'
and TLB mappings to be setup.
The code path of sun4v_register_mondo_queues --> register_one_mondo
is one such case. sun4v_register_mondo_queues already has the
necessary 'notrace' annotation, but register_one_mondo does not.
Normally register_one_mondo is inlined so the bug doesn't trigger,
but with some config/compiler combinations, it won't be so we
must properly mark it notrace.
While we're here, add 'notrace' annoations to prom_printf and
prom_halt so that early error handling won't have the same problem.

This is a compromise and a temporary workaround for bootup NMI
watchdog triggers some people see with qla2xxx devices present.
This happens when, for example:
CPU 0 is in the driver init and looping submitting mailbox commands to
load the firmware, then waiting for completion.
CPU 1 is receiving the device interrupts. CPU 1 is where the NMI
watchdog triggers.
CPU 0 is submitting mailbox commands fast enough that by the time CPU
1 returns from the device interrupt handler, a new one is pending.
This sequence runs for more than 5 seconds.
The problematic case is CPU 1's timer interrupt running when the
barrage of device interrupts begin. Then we have:
timer interrupt
return for softirq checking
pending, thus enable interrupts
qla2xxx interrupt
return
qla2xxx interrupt
return
... 5+ seconds pass
final qla2xxx interrupt for fw load
return
run timer softirq
return
At some point in the multi-second qla2xxx interrupt storm we trigger
the NMI watchdog on CPU 1 from the NMI interrupt handler.
The timer softirq, once we get back to running it, is smart enough to
run the timer work enough times to make up for the missed timer
interrupts.
However, the NMI watchdogs (both x86 and sparc) use the timer
interrupt count to notice the cpu is wedged. But in the above
scenerio we'll receive only one such timer interrupt even if we last
all the way back to running the timer softirq.
The default watchdog trigger point is only 5 seconds, which is pretty
low (the softwatchdog triggers at 60 seconds). So increase it to 30
seconds for now.

Commit log for commit 517d3cc15b
("[libata] ata_piix: Enable parallel scan") says:
This patch turns on parallel scanning for the ata_piix driver.
This driver is used on most netbooks (no AHCI for cheap storage it seems).
The scan is the dominating time factor in the kernel boot for these
devices; with this flag it gets cut in half for the device I used
for testing (eeepc).
Alan took a look at the driver source and concluded that it ought to be safe
to do for this driver. Alan has also checked with the hardware team.
and it is all true but once we put all things together additional
constraints for PATA controllers show up (some hardware registers
have per-host not per-port atomicity) and we risk misprogramming
the controller.
I used the following test to check whether the issue is real:
@@ -736,8 +736,20 @@ static void piix_set_piomode(struct ata_
(timings[pio][1] << 8);
}
pci_write_config_word(dev, master_port, master_data);

/* Ensure the UDMA bit is off - it will be turned back on if
UDMA is selected */
and it indeed triggered the error message.
Lets fix all such races by adding an extra locking to ->set_piomode
and ->set_dmamode methods for PATA controllers.
[ Alan: would be better to take the host lock in libata-core for these
cases so that we fix all the adapters in one swoop. "Looks fine as a
