This function has traditionally used "insert_resource()", because before commit cebd78a8 ("Fix pci_claim_resource") it used to just insert the resource into whatever root resource tree that was indicated by "pcibios_select_root()". So there Matthew fixed it to actually look up the proper parent resource, which means that now it's actively wrong to then traverse the resource tree any more: we already know exactly where the new resource should go. And when we then did commit a76117df ("x86: Use pci_claim_resource"), which changed the x86 PCI code from the open-coded pr = pci_find_parent_resource(dev, r); if (!pr || request_resource(pr, r) < 0) { to using if (pci_claim_resource(dev, idx) < 0) { that "insert_resource()" now suddenly became a problem, and causes a regression covered by http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13891 which this fixes.

The previous commit ("do_sigaltstack: avoid copying 'stack_t' as a structure to user space") fixed a real bug. This one just cleans up the copy from user space to that gcc can generate better code for it (and so that it looks the same as the later copy back to user space).

Ulrich Drepper correctly points out that there is generally padding in the structure on 64-bit hosts, and that copying the structure from kernel to user space can leak information from the kernel stack in those padding bytes. Avoid the whole issue by just copying the three members one by one instead, which also means that the function also can avoid the need for a stack frame. This also happens to match how we copy the new structure from user space, so it all even makes sense. [ The obvious solution of adding a memset() generates horrid code, gcc does really stupid things. ] Reported-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

sg_miter_start() is currently unaware of the direction of the copy process (to or from the scatter list). It is important to know the direction because the page has to be flushed in case the data written is seen on a different mapping in user land on cache incoherent architectures.

commit 6321e3ed caused the full bmv_count's worth of getbmapx structures to get allocated; telling it to do MAXEXTNUM was a bit insane, resulting in ENOMEM every time. Chop it down to something reasonable, the number of slots in the caller's input buffer. If this is too large the caller may get ENOMEM but the reason should not be a mystery, and they can try again with something smaller. We add 1 to the value because in the normal getbmap world, bmv_count includes the header and xfs_getbmap does: nex = bmv->bmv_count - 1; if (nex <= 0) return XFS_ERROR(EINVAL); Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@sandeen.net> Reviewed-by: Olaf Weber <olaf@sgi.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Felix Blyakher <felixb@sgi.com>

Commit d01730d7 didn't completely fix the problem since we still take dqio_mutex and i_mutex in the wrong order.

VAT inode is located in the last block recorded block of the medium. When the drive errorneously reports number of recorded blocks, we failed to load the VAT inode and thus mount the medium.

The async block group caching code uses the commit_root pointer to get a stable version of the extent allocation tree for scanning. This copy of the tree root isn't going to change and it significantly reduces the complexity of the scanning code. During a commit, we have a loop where we update the extent allocation tree root. We need to loop because updating the root pointer in the tree of tree roots may allocate blocks which may change the extent allocation tree. Right now the commit_root pointer is changed inside this loop. It is more correct to change the commit_root pointer only after all the looping is done.

When a file is deleted from a gfs2 filesystem on one node, a dcache entry for it may still exist on other nodes in the cluster. If this happens, gfs2 will be unable to free this file on disk. Because of this, it's possible to have a gfs2 filesystem with no files on it and no free space. With this patch, when a node receives a callback notifying it that the file is being deleted on another node, it schedules a new workqueue thread to remove the file's dcache entry.
