When using "min()", the types of both sides should match. With the cpu mask changes, the type of num_online_cpus() will now depend on config options. Use "min_t()" with an explicit type instead. And make the rx/tx case look the same too, just for sanity. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

An XFS workload showed up a bug in the lockless pagecache patch. Basically it would go into an "infinite" loop, although it would sometimes be able to break out of the loop! The reason is a missing compiler barrier in the "increment reference count unless it was zero" case of the lockless pagecache protocol in the gang lookup functions. This would cause the compiler to use a cached value of struct page pointer to retry the operation with, rather than reload it. So the page might have been removed from pagecache and freed (refcount==0) but the lookup would not correctly notice the page is no longer in pagecache, and keep attempting to increment the refcount and failing, until the page gets reallocated for something else. This isn't a data corruption because the condition will be detected if the page has been reallocated. However it can result in a lockup. Linus points out that ACCESS_ONCE is also required in that pointer load, even if it's absence is not causing a bug on our particular build. The most general way to solve this is just to put an rcu_dereference in radix_tree_deref_slot.

When CONFIG_PROC_FS is unset, include/linux/interrupt.h defines init_irq_proc() as an empty function. arch/sparc/kernel/irq_32.c defines this function unconditionally. Fix the latter so that it only defines this function when CONFIG_PROC_FS is set. This fixes the following error: arch/sparc/kernel/irq_32.c:672: error: redefinition of 'init_irq_proc' include/linux/interrupt.h:461: error: previous definition of 'init_irq_proc' was here This was found using randconfig builds.

If the iucv module is compiled in/loaded but no user is registered cpu hot remove doesn't work. Reason for that is that the iucv cpu hotplug notifier on CPU_DOWN_PREPARE checks if the iucv_buffer_cpumask would be empty after the corresponding bit would be cleared. However the bit was never set since iucv wasn't enable. That causes all cpu hot unplug operations to fail in this scenario. To fix this use iucv_path_table as an indicator wether iucv is enabled or not.

If the iucv_path_connect() call fails then return an error code that corresponds to the iucv_path_connect() failure condition; instead of returning -ECONNREFUSED for any failure. This helps to improve error handling for user space applications (e.g. inform the user that the z/VM guest is not authorized to connect to other guest virtual machines). The error return codes are based on those described in connect(2).

We need to make asm-offsets.h contents visible for objects built with userland headers. Instead of creating a symlink, just have the file with equivalent include (relative to location of header) created once. That kills the last symlink used in arch/um builds. Additionally, both generated headers can become dependencies of archprepare now, killing the misuse of prepare.

The flags field of struct ehea_port is only used with test_bit(), clear_bit() and set_bit() and these interfaces only work on "unsigned long"s, so change the field to be an "unsigned long". Also, this field only has two bits defined for it (0 and 1) so will still be fine if someone builds this driver for a 32 bit arch (at least as far as this flags field is concerned). Also note that ehea_driver_flags is only used in ehca_main.c, so make it static in there. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The problems lie in the types used for some inotify interfaces, both at the kernel level and at the glibc level. This mail addresses the kernel problem. I will follow up with some suggestions for glibc changes. For the sys_inotify_rm_watch() interface, the type of the 'wd' argument is currently 'u32', it should be '__s32' . That is Robert's suggestion, and is consistent with the other declarations of watch descriptors in the kernel source, in particular, the inotify_event structure in include/linux/inotify.h: struct inotify_event { __s32 wd; /* watch descriptor */ __u32 mask; /* watch mask */ __u32 cookie; /* cookie to synchronize two events */ __u32 len; /* length (including nulls) of name */ char name[0]; /* stub for possible name */ }; The patch makes the changes needed for inotify_rm_watch().

Fsync currently has a fdatawrite/fdatawait pair around the method call, and a mutex_lock/unlock of the inode mutex. All callers of fsync have to duplicate this, but we have a few and most of them don't quite get it right. This patch adds a new vfs_fsync that takes care of this. It's a little more complicated as usual as ->fsync might get a NULL file pointer and just a dentry from nfsd, but otherwise gets afile and we want to take the mapping and file operations from it when it is there. Notes on the fsync callers: - ecryptfs wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the lower file - coda wasn't calling filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait on the host file, and returning 0 when ->fsync was missing - shm wasn't calling either filemap_fdatawrite / filemap_fdatawait nor taking i_mutex. Now given that shared memory doesn't have disk backing not doing anything in fsync seems fine and I left it out of the vfs_fsync conversion for now, but in that case we might just not pass it through to the lower file at all but just call the no-op simple_sync_file directly. [and now actually export vfs_fsync] Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
