I found that there is a off-by-one problem in the following code. Version: 2.6.24-rc2 File: fs/sysfs/file.c:118-122 Function: fill_read_buffer -------------------------------------------------------------------- count = ops->show(kobj, attr_sd->s_attr.attr, buffer->page); sysfs_put_active_two(attr_sd); BUG_ON(count > (ssize_t)PAGE_SIZE); -------------------------------------------------------------------- Because according to the specification of the sysfs and the implement of the show methods, the show methods return the number of bytes which would be generated for the given input, excluding the trailing null.So if the return value of the show methods equals PAGE_SIZE - 1, the buffer is full in fact. And if the return value equals PAGE_SIZE, the resulting string was already truncated,or buffer overflow occurred. This patch fixes an off-by-one error in fill_read_buffer.

The CONFIG_SUSPEND changes in 2.6.23 caused a regression under certain configuration conditions (SUSPEND=n, USB_AUTOSUSPEND=y) where all USB device attributes in sysfs (idVendor, idProduct, ...) silently disappeared, causing udev breakage and more. The cause of this is that the /sys/.../power subdirectory is now only created when CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is set, however, it should be created whenever CONFIG_PM is set to handle the above situation. The following patch fixes the regression. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@gentoo.org> Acked-by: Rafael J.

The count of legacy pty devices can be set by a kernel commandline parameter. For the distro kernel, we would like to disable all pty's by default, but keep the opportunity to request devices on the kernel commandline.

2.6.11 gave __GFP_ZERO's prep_zero_page a bogus "highmem may have to wait" assertion. Presumably added under the misconception that clear_highpage uses nonatomic kmap; but then and now it uses kmap_atomic, so no problem.

tmpfs was misconverted to __GFP_ZERO in 2.6.11. There's an unusual case in which shmem_getpage receives the page from its caller instead of allocating. We must cover this case by clear_highpage before SetPageUptodate, as before. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

David Miller reported soft lockup false-positives that trigger on NOHZ due to CPUs idling for more than 10 seconds. The solution is touch the softlockup watchdog when we return from idle.

ocfs2_truncate() and ocfs2_remove_inode_range() had reversed their "set i_size" arguments to ocfs2_truncate_inline(). Fix things so that truncate sets i_size, and punching a hole ignores it. This exposed a problem where punching a hole in an inline-data file wasn't updating the page cache, so fix that too. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

The existing bug statement didn't take into account unhashed dentries which might not have a cluster lock on them. This could happen if a node exporting the file system via NFS is rebooted, re-exported to nfs clients and then unmounted. It's fine in this case to not have a dentry cluster lock. Just remove the bug statement and replace it with an error print, which does the proper checks. Though we want to know if something has happened which might have prevented a cluster lock from being created, it's definitely not necessary to panic the machine for this.

Enable expensive bitmap scanning only if DEBUG option is enabled. The bitmap scanning quite loads the CPU and on my machine the write throughput of dd if=/dev/zero of=/ocfs2/file bs=1M count=500 conv=sync improves from 37 MB/s to 45.4 MB/s in local mode...

If the inode block isn't valid then we don't want to print the value from that, instead print the block number which was passed in (which should always be correct). Also, turn this into a debug print for now - folks who hit an actual problem always have other logs indicating what the source is. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
