A panic was discovered with bonding when using mode 5 or 6 and trying to remove the slaves from the bond after the interface was taken down. When calling 'ifconfig bond0 down' the following happens: bond_close() bond_alb_deinitialize() tlb_deinitialize() kfree(bond_info->tx_hashtbl) bond_info->tx_hashtbl = NULL Unfortunately if there are still slaves in the bond, when removing the module the following happens: bonding_exit() bond_free_all() bond_release_all() bond_alb_deinit_slave() tlb_clear_slave() tx_hash_table = BOND_ALB_INFO(bond).tx_hashtbl u32 next_index = tx_hash_table[index].next As you might guess we panic when trying to access a few entries into the table that no longer exists. I experimented with several options (like moving the calls to tlb_deinitialize somewhere else), but it really makes the most sense to be part of the bond_close routine. It also didn't seem logical move tlb_clear_slave around too much, so the simplest option seems to add a check in tlb_clear_slave to make sure we haven't already wiped the tx_hashtbl away before searching for all the non-existent hash-table entries that used to point to the slave as the output interface.

This patch reworks the resource free logic performed at the time a bonding device is released. This (a) closes two resource leaks, one for workqueues and one for multicast lists, and (b) improves commonality of code between the "destroy one" and "destroy all" paths by performing final free activity via destructor instead of explicitly (and differently) in each path. "Sean E. Millichamp" <sean@bruenor.org> reported the workqueue leak, and included a different patch. Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

This patch corrects a message bug in the via-velocity driver which bothered me for some time. The messages printed during device init look like the following: [ 8.486422] eth%d: set value of parameter Wake On Lan options to 0 ^^! [ 8.487340] eth0: VIA Networking Velocity Family Gigabit Ethernet Adapter Note the unresolved format string. dev->name is unavailable before register_netdev, so use dev_driver_string(&pdev->dev), which is also consistent with other drivers. "char *devname" parameters had to be converted to "const char *devname" to be consistent with dev_driver_string return value.

All kernel memory which is used for kernel/hardware data transfer must be registered with firmware using "memory regions". 16GB hugepages may not be part of a memory region due to firmware restrictions. This patch modifies the walk_memory_resource callback fn to filter hugepages and add only standard memory to the busmap which is later on used for MR registration.

In commit f337b9c5 ("epoll: drop unnecessary test") Thomas found that there is an unnecessary (always true) test in ep_send_events(). The callback never inserts into ->rdllink while the send loop is performed, and also does the ~EP_PRIVATE_BITS test. Given we're holding the mutex during this time, the conditions tested inside the loop are always true. HOWEVER. The test "!ep_is_linked(&epi->rdllink)" wasn't there because we insert into ->rdllink, but because the send-events loop might terminate before the whole list is scanned (-EFAULT). In such cases, when the loop terminates early, and when a (leftover) file received an event while we're performing the lockless loop, we need such test to avoid to double insert the epoll items. The list_splice() done a few steps below, will correctly re-insert the ones that were left on "txlist". This should fix the kenrel.org bugzilla entry 11831.
