__sync_single_inode() is forgetting to increment inodes_stat.nr_unused when moving a previously-dirty inode onto the inode_unused list. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

The laptop mode docs don't say that no kernel configuration changes are needed to use laptop mode. That's caused some people to look for the option. This patch makes the doc explicitly mention the lack of an option. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Add #ifdef CONFIG_PPP_FILTER around get_filter implementation which is only used when this option is enabled. This prevents compiler warning (unused function) when CONFIG_PPP_FILTER is not defined. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> This patch eliminates the false hole which can form between ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_HIGHMEM. This is most easily seen when 4g/4g split is enabled, but it's always broken, and we just happen not to hit it most of the time. Basically, the patch changes the allocation of the numa remaps regions (the source of the holes) such that they officially fall within VMALLOC space, where they belong. Tested in -mjb for a couple of months, and again against 2.6.7-mm1. Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: Martin J.

Hit a kernel oops on 2.6.7 kernel when doing direct I/O to hugetlb page. The destructor of compound page was moved into page->mapping since 2.6.6. It got interfered with set_page_dirty() for hugetlb page: an O_DIRECT read into first tail page of the compound page will fool set_page_dirty() to deference page->mapping->a_ops and then kernel oops. Patch to fix the oops. We do just like what bio_set_pages_dirty() does. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Right now the kernel detects the sysadmin trying to set the iocharset of vfat to UTF8 and prevents this with an error. While I can see that this is not recommended, enforcing this is policy that probably doesn't belong in the kernel. The patch below makes this situation a warning and a recommendation instead of a strong blockage. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=126641 is an example of a sysadmin disliking this policy enforcement.

SELinux should just drop out the socket and netfilter hooks when that is disabled. The problem was introduced because of the fine-grained netlink patches, which made the selinux_netlink_send/recv hook functions depend on CONFIG_SECURITY_NETWORK but the netlink_send/recv hooks themselves are not dependent on it. Need to move selinux_netlink_send/recv back out of the conditional block, and provide a static inline stub for selinux_nlmsg_perm if CONFIG_SECURITY_NETWORK is not defined.

Allow the lease to be set from /proc/fs/nfs/nfsv4leasetime. To comply with rfc3530, this appears as a server reboot from the point of view of the client, which must reclaim state with the grace period.

Currently nfs4_arg->to_free keeps a list of void ptrs on which kfree is called when freeing the nfs4_arg. This allows us to do cleanup on e.g. xdr decode failures. To allow more complicated objects to be freed (in particular, acls), we add a "void (*release)(void *)" to allow us to request something other than kfree be called when freeing. Signed-off-by: J.

nfsd4_proc_compound is using over a thousand bytes of stack.

From: Greg Banks <gnb@sgi.com> NFS/TCP has been used widely for a long time now, and is now enabled by many distros and typically recommended for lossy or congested networks.

store_stackinfo() does an unlocked module list walk during normal runtime which opens up a race with the module load/unload code. This can be triggered by simply unloading and loading a module in a loop with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC resulting in store_stackinfo() tripping over bad list pointers. kernel_text_address doesn't take any locks, because during an OOPS we don't want to deadlock. Rename that to __kernel_text_address, and make kernel_text_address take the lock.

I find __free_pages_bulk very hard to understand ... (I was trying to mod it for the non MAX_ORDER aligned zones, and cleaned it up first). This should make it much more comprehensible to mortal man ... I benchmarked the changes on the big 16x and it's no slower (actually it's about 0.5% faster, but that's within experimental error). I moved the creation of mask into __free_pages_bulk from the caller - it seems to really belong inside there. Then instead of doing wierd limbo dances with mask, I made it use order instead where it's more intuitive. Personally I find this makes the whole thing a damned sight easier to understand.
