2008-08-04vt: Deadlock workaroundAlan Cox
2.6.26 corrected the mutex locking on tty resizing to fix the case where you could get the tty/vt sizing out of sync. That turns out to have a deadlock. The actual fix is really major and I've got it lined up as part of the ops changes for 2.6.28 so for 2.6.26/2.6.27 it is safer to reintroduce this ages old minor bug.

When I tested the same on older kernels like 2.6.18, I got the correct result i.e errno 12 (ENOMEM). I think in source code mlock(2), setting errno ENOMEM has been missed in do_mlock() , on mlock_fixup() failure. SUSv3 requires the following behavior frmo mlock(2). [ENOMEM] Some or all of the address range specified by the addr and len arguments does not correspond to valid mapped pages in the address space of the process. [EAGAIN] Some or all of the memory identified by the operation could not be locked when the call was made. This rule isn't so nice and slighly strange. but many people think POSIX/SUS compliance is important.

2008-08-04atmel_spi: fix hang due to missed interruptGerard Kam
For some time my at91sam9260 board with JFFS2 on serial flash (m25p80) would hang when accessing the serial flash and SPI bus. Slowing the SPI clock down to 9 MHz reduced the occurrence of the hang from "always" during boot to a nuisance level that allowed other SW development to continue. Finally had to address this issue when an application stresses the I/O to always cause a hang. Hang seems to be caused by a missed SPI interrupt, so that the task ends up waiting forever after calling spi_sync(). The fix has 2 parts. First is to halt the DMA engine before the "current" PDC registers are loaded. This ensures that the "next" registers are loaded before the DMA operation takes off. The second part of the fix is a kludge that adds a "completion" interrupt in case the ENDRX interrupt for the last segment of the DMA chaining operation was missed. The patch allows the SPI clock for the serial flash to be increased from 9 MHz to 15 MHz (or more?). No hangs or SPI overruns were encountered. Haavard: while this patch does indeed improve things, I still see overruns and CRC errors on my NGW100 board when running the DataFlash at 10 MHz. However, I think some improvement is better than nothing, so I'm passing this on for inclusion in 2.6.27.

2008-08-02mm: dont clear PG_uptodate on truncate/invalidateMiklos Szeredi
Brian Wang reported that a FUSE filesystem exported through NFS could return I/O errors on read. This was traced to splice_direct_to_actor() returning a short or zero count when racing with page invalidation. However this is not FUSE or NFSD specific, other filesystems (notably NFS) also call invalidate_inode_pages2() to purge stale data from the cache. If this happens while such pages are sitting in a pipe buffer, then splice(2) from the pipe can return zero, and read(2) from the pipe can return ENODATA. The zero return is especially bad, since it implies end-of-file or disconnected pipe/socket, and is documented as such for splice. But returning an error for read() is also nasty, when in fact there was no error (data becoming stale is not an error). The same problems can be triggered by "hole punching" with madvise(MADV_REMOVE). Fix this by not clearing the PG_uptodate flag on truncation and invalidation.

Currently function tty_ldisc_get() tries to load an ldisc driver module only when tty_ldisc_try_get() returns -EAGAIN. This happens only if module is being unloaded. If ldisc module is not loaded tty_ldisc_try_get() returns -EINVAL and this case is not handled in tty_ldisc_get(), so request_module() is not called.

2008-08-01PNP: fix formatting of dbg_pnp_show_resources() outputBjorn Helgaas
Each resource should be printed on its own line, so start snprintf'ing at the beginning of the buffer every time through the loop. Also, use scnprintf() rather than snprintf() when building up the buffer to print. scnprintf() returns the number of characters actually written into the buffer (not including the trailing NULL). snprintf() returns the number of characters that *would be* written, assuming everything would fit in the buffer. That's nice if we want to resize the buffer to make sure everything fits, but in this case, I just want to keep from overflowing the buffer, and it's OK if the output is truncated. Using snprintf() meant that my "len" could grow to be more than the the buffer size, which makes "sizeof(buf) - len" negative, which causes this alarming WARN_ON: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121736480005656&w=2 More useful snprintf/scnprintf discussion: http://lwn.net/Articles/69419/ Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Reported-by: Pete Clements <clem@clem.clem-digital.net> Cc: Rene Herman <rene.herman@keyaccess.nl> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
