The logic in __get_user_pages() used to skip the stack guard page lookup whenever the caller wasn't interested in seeing what the actual page was. But Michel Lespinasse points out that there are cases where we don't care about the physical page itself (so 'pages' may be NULL), but do want to make sure a page is mapped into the virtual address space. So using the existence of the "pages" array as an indication of whether to look up the guard page or not isn't actually so great, and we really should just use the FOLL_MLOCK bit. But because that bit was only set for the VM_LOCKED case (and not all vma's necessarily have it, even for mlock()), we couldn't do that originally. Fix that by moving the VM_LOCKED check deeper into the call-chain, which actually simplifies many things. Now mlock() gets simpler, and we can also check for FOLL_MLOCK in __get_user_pages() and the code ends up much more straightforward.

The SLUB allocator use of the cmpxchg_double logic was wrong: it actually needs the irq-safe one. That happens automatically when we use the native unlocked 'cmpxchg8b' instruction, but when compiling the kernel for older x86 CPUs that do not support that instruction, we fall back to the generic emulation code. And if you don't specify that you want the irq-safe version, the generic code ends up just open-coding the cmpxchg8b equivalent without any protection against interrupts or preemption. Which definitely doesn't work for SLUB. This was reported by Werner Landgraf <w.landgraf@ru.ru>, who saw instability with his distro-kernel that was compiled to support pretty much everything under the sun. Most big Linux distributions tend to compile for PPro and later, and would never have noticed this problem. This also fixes the prototypes for the irqsafe cmpxchg_double functions to use 'bool' like they should. [ Btw, that whole "generic code defaults to no protection" design just sounds stupid - if the code needs no protection, there is no reason to use "cmpxchg_double" to begin with. So we should probably just remove the unprotected version entirely as pointless. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reported-and-tested-by: werner <w.landgraf@ru.ru> Acked-and-tested-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Acked-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.LFD.2.02.1105041539050.3005@ionosSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

In particular, s_freeing_list needs to be initialized early, since it is used on some of the error paths when mounts fail. The mapping inode, for example, would be initialized and then free'd on an error path before s_freeing_list was initialized, but the inode drop operation needs the s_freeing_list to be set up. Normally you'd never see this, because not only is logfs fairly rare, but a successful mount will never have any issues.

Current implementation of ohci_set_config_rom() uses a deferred bus reset via fw_schedule_bus_reset(). If clients add multiple unit descriptors to the config_rom in quick succession, the deferred bus reset may not have fired before succeeding update requests have come in. This can lead to an incorrect partial update of the config_rom for both addition and removal of config_rom descriptors, as the ohci_set_config_rom() routine will return -EBUSY if a previous pending update has not been completed yet; the requested update just gets dropped on the floor. This patch recognizes that the "in-flight" update can be modified until it has been processed by the bus-reset, and the locking in the bus_reset_tasklet ensures that the update is done atomically with respect to modifications made by ohci_set_config_rom(). The -EBUSY error case is simply removed. [Stefan R: The bug always existed at least theoretically. But it became easy to trigger since 2.6.36 commit 02d37bed "firewire: core: integrate software-forced bus resets with bus management" which introduced long mandatory delays between janitorial bus resets.] Signed-off-by: Benjamin Buchalter <bj@mhlabs.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de> (trivial style changes) Cc: <stable@kernel.org> # 2.6.36.y and newer

The reason is that at some point init_memory_mapping is going to reach the pagetable pages area and map those pages too (mapping them as normal memory that falls in the range of addresses passed to init_memory_mapping as argument). Some of those pages are already pagetable pages (they are in the range pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_end) therefore they are going to be mapped RO and everything is fine. Some of these pages are not pagetable pages yet (they fall in the range pgt_buf_end-pgt_buf_top; for example the page at pgt_buf_end) so they are going to be mapped RW. When these pages become pagetable pages and are hooked into the pagetable, xen will find that the guest has already a RW mapping of them somewhere and fail the operation. The reason Xen requires pagetables to be RO is that the hypervisor needs to verify that the pagetables are valid before using them. The validation operations are called "pinning" (more details in arch/x86/xen/mmu.c). In order to fix the issue we mark all the pages in the entire range pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_top as RO, however when the pagetable allocation is completed only the range pgt_buf_start-pgt_buf_end is reserved by init_memory_mapping. Hence the kernel is going to crash as soon as one of the pages in the range pgt_buf_end-pgt_buf_top is reused (b/c those ranges are RO). For this reason, this function is introduced which is called _after_ the init_memory_mapping has completed (in a perfect world we would call this function from init_memory_mapping, but lets ignore that). Because we are called _after_ init_memory_mapping the pgt_buf_[start, end,top] have all changed to new values (b/c another init_memory_mapping is called). Hence, the first time we enter this function, we save away the pgt_buf_start value and update the pgt_buf_[end,top]. When we detect that the "old" pgt_buf_start through pgt_buf_end PFNs have been reserved (so memblock_x86_reserve_range has been called), we immediately set out to RW the "old" pgt_buf_end through pgt_buf_top. And then we update those "old" pgt_buf_[end|top] with the new ones so that we can redo this on the next pagetable. Acked-by: "H.
