57a62fed87 [PATCH] I2O: Bugfixes to get I2O working again
From: Markus Lidel <Markus.Lidel@shadowconnect.com>

- Fixed locking of struct i2o_exec_wait in Executive-OSM

- Removed LCT Notify in i2o_exec_probe() which caused freeing memory and
  accessing freed memory during first enumeration of I2O devices

- Added missing locking in i2o_exec_lct_notify()

- removed put_device() of I2O controller in i2o_iop_remove() which caused
  the controller structure get freed to early

- Fixed size of mempool in i2o_iop_alloc()

- Fixed access to freed memory in i2o_msg_get()

bc1c116974 [PATCH] elevator switching race
There's a race between shutting down one io scheduler and firing up the
next, in which a new io could enter and cause the io scheduler to be
invoked with bad or NULL data.

To fix this, we need to maintain the queue lock for a bit longer.
Unfortunately we cannot do that, since the elevator init requires to be
run without the lock held.  This isn't easily fixable, without also
changing the mempool API.  So split the initialization into two parts,
and alloc-init operation and an attach operation.  Then we can
preallocate the io scheduler and related structures, and run the attach
inside the lock after we detach the old one.

This patch has survived 30 minutes of 1 second io scheduler switching
with a very busy io load.

760f1fce03 [PATCH] revert "swsusp add check for suspension of X controlled devices"
From: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org>

Revert commit ff4da2e262.

It broke APM suspend, probably because APM doesn't switch back to a VT
when suspending.

Tracked down by Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com>

Rafael sayeth:
  "It only fixed the theoretical issue that a quick-handed user could
   switch to X after processes have been frozen and before the devices
   are suspended.

   With the current userland suspend tools it shouldn't be necessary."

e984bb43f7 [PATCH] Align the node_mem_map endpoints to a MAX_ORDER boundary
Andy added code to buddy allocator which does not require the zone's
endpoints to be aligned to MAX_ORDER.  An issue is that the buddy allocator
requires the node_mem_map's endpoints to be MAX_ORDER aligned.  Otherwise
__page_find_buddy could compute a buddy not in node_mem_map for partial
MAX_ORDER regions at zone's endpoints.  page_is_buddy will detect that
these pages at endpoints are not PG_buddy (they were zeroed out by bootmem
allocator and not part of zone).  Of course the negative here is we could
waste a little memory but the positive is eliminating all the old checks
for zone boundary conditions.

SPARSEMEM won't encounter this issue because of MAX_ORDER size constraint
when SPARSEMEM is configured.  ia64 VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP doesn't need the logic
either because the holes and endpoints are handled differently.  This
leaves checking alloc_remap and other arches which privately allocate for
node_mem_map.

This avoids allocating a new page for COW if it's the last page.

However, if CONFIG_SWAP is not set, can_share_swap_page() is defined as 0,
thus always causes a copy for the last COW page.  The below simple patch

5e37661389 [PATCH] symbol_put_addr() locks kernel
Even since a previous patch:

Fix race between CONFIG_DEBUG_SLABALLOC and modules
Sun, 27 Jun 2004 17:55:19 +0000 (17:55 +0000)
http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/old-2.6-bkcvs.git;a=commit;h=92b3db26d31cf21b70e3c1eadc56c179506d8fbe

The function symbol_put_addr() will deadlock the kernel.

symbol_put_addr() would acquire modlist_lock, then while holding the lock call
two functions kernel_text_address() and module_text_address() which also try
to acquire the same lock.  This deadlocks the kernel of course.

This patch changes symbol_put_addr() to not acquire the modlist_lock, it
doesn't need it since it never looks at the module list directly.  Also, it
now uses core_kernel_text() instead of kernel_text_address().  The latter has
an additional check for addr inside a module, but we don't need to do that
since we call module_text_address() (the same function kernel_text_address
uses) ourselves.

b17a7c179d [NET]: Do sysfs registration as part of register_netdevice.
The last step of netdevice registration was being done by a delayed
call, but because it was delayed, it was impossible to return any error
code if the class_device registration failed.

Side effects:
 * one state in registration process is unnecessary.
 * register_netdevice can sleep inside class_device registration/hotplug
 * code in netdev_run_todo only does unregistration so it is simpler.

The whole rescheduling hack was a bad idea. It doesn't really solve

1498221d51 [CLASS DEVICE]: add attribute_group creation
Extend the support of attribute groups in class_device's to allow
groups to be created as part of the registration process. This allows
network device's to avoid race between registration and creating
groups.

Note that unlike attributes that are a property of the class object,
the groups are a property of the class_device object. This is done
because there are different types of network devices (wireless for
example).

a893b99be7 [PATCH] splice: fix page LRU accounting
Currently we rely on the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU flag being set correctly
to know whether we need to fiddle with page LRU state after stealing it,
however for some origins we just don't know if the page is on the LRU
list or not.

So remove PIPE_BUF_FLAG_LRU and do this check/add manually in pipe_to_file()
instead.

46c5ea3c9a [NETFILTER] x_tables: fix compat related crash on non-x86
When iptables userspace adds an ipt_standard_target, it calculates the size
of the entire entry as:

sizeof(struct ipt_entry) + XT_ALIGN(sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target))

ipt_standard_target looks like this:

  struct xt_standard_target
  {
        struct xt_entry_target target;
        int verdict;
  };

xt_entry_target contains a pointer, so when compiled for 64 bit the
structure gets an extra 4 byte of padding at the end. On 32 bit
architectures where iptables aligns to 8 byte it will also have 4
byte padding at the end because it is only 36 bytes large.

The compat_ipt_standard_fn in the kernel adjusts the offsets by

  sizeof(struct ipt_standard_target) - sizeof(struct compat_ipt_standard_target),

which will always result in 4, even if the structure from userspace
was already padded to a multiple of 8. On x86 this works out by
accident because userspace only aligns to 4, on all other
architectures this is broken and causes incorrect adjustments to
the size and following offsets.

Thanks to Linus for lots of debugging help and testing.

If SPLICE_F_GIFT is set, the user is basically giving this pages away to
the kernel. That means we can steal them for eg page cache uses instead
of copying it.

The data must be properly page aligned and also a multiple of the page size
in length.

f6762b7ad8 [PATCH] pipe: enable atomic copying of pipe data to/from user space
The pipe ->map() method uses kmap() to virtually map the pages, which
is both slow and has known scalability issues on SMP. This patch enables
atomic copying of pipe pages, by pre-faulting data and using kmap_atomic()
instead.

are results from that on a UP machine with highmem (1.5GiB of RAM), running
first a UP kernel, SMP kernel, and SMP kernel patched.
