Commit e462c448 ("pipe: use event aware wakeups") optimized the pipe event wakeup calls to avoid wakeups if the events do not match the requested set. However, the optimization was buggy, in that it didn't actually use the correct sets for the events: when we make room for more data to be written, the pipe poll() routine will return both the POLLOUT _and_ POLLWRNORM bits. Similarly for read. And most critically, when a pipe is released, that will potentially result in POLLHUP|POLLERR (depending on whether it was the last reader or writer), not just the regular POLLIN|POLLOUT. This bug showed itself as a hung gnome-screensaver-dialog process, stuck forever (or at least until it was poked by a signal or by being traced) in a poll() system call.

During system suspend, the "wait for ring buffer to empty" loop would always time out after three seconds, because the faster cached ring buffer head read would always return zero. Force the slow-and-careful PIO read on all but the first iterations of the loop to fix it. This also removes the unused (and useless) 'actual_head' variable that tried to approximate doing this, but did it incorrectly. Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Rafael J.

This partially reverts commit da8aeb92 ("ACPI / Battery: Update information on info notification and resume"), which causes a hang on resume on at least some machines. This bug was bisected on an ASUS EeePC 901, which hangs at resume time if we do that "acpi_battery_refresh(battery)" in the battery resume function. Rafael suspects we'll still need to refresh the sysfs files upon resume, but that that can be done from a PM notifier (that will run after thawing user space).

The NT_CANCEL command looks just like the original command, except for a few small differences. The send_nt_cancel function however currently takes a tcon, which we don't have in SendReceive and SendReceive2. Instead of "respinning" the entire header for an NT_CANCEL, just mangle the existing header by replacing just the fields we need. This means we don't need a tcon and allows us to call it from other places.

If the server isn't responding to echoes, we don't want to leave tasks hung waiting for it to reply. At that point, we'll want to reconnect so that soft mounts can return an error to userspace quickly. If the client hasn't received a reply after a specified number of echo intervals, assume that the transport is down and attempt to reconnect the socket. The number of echo_intervals to wait before attempting to reconnect is tunable via a module parameter. Setting it to 0, means that the client will never attempt to reconnect. The default is 5.

Jeff Layton authored
In order to incorporate async requests, we need to allow for a more general way to do things on receive, rather than just waking up a process. Turn the task pointer in the mid_q_entry into a callback function and a generic data pointer. When a response comes in, or the socket is reconnected, cifsd can call the callback function in order to wake up the process. The default is to just wake up the current process which should mean no change in behavior for existing code. Also, clean up the locking in cifs_reconnect. There doesn't seem to be any need to hold both the srv_mutex and GlobalMid_Lock when walking the list of mids.

We only want to force a reconnect to the server under very limited and specific circumstances. Now that we have processes waiting indefinitely for responses, we shouldn't reach this point unless a reconnect is already in process. Thus, there's no reason to re-mark the server for reconnect here.

The client should not be timing out on individual SMB requests. Too much of the state between client and server is tied to the state of the socket. If we time out requests and issue spurious disconnects then that comprimises data integrity. Instead of doing this complicated dance where we try to decide how long to wait for a response for particular requests, have the client instead wait indefinitely for a response. Also, use a TASK_KILLABLE sleep here so that fatal signals will break out of this waiting. Later patches will add support for detecting dead peers and forcing reconnects based on that.

We sometimes need to map between the virtio device and the given pci device. One such use is OS installer that gets the boot pci device from BIOS and needs to find the relevant block device. Since it can't, installation fails. Instead of creating a top-level devices/virtio-pci directory, create each device under the corresponding pci device node. Symlinks to all virtio-pci devices can be found under the pci driver link in bus/pci/drivers/virtio-pci/devices, and all virtio devices under drivers/bus/virtio/devices.

PROT_EXEC seems to be completely unnecessary (as the lguest binary never executes there), and will allow it to work with SELinux (and more importantly, PaX :-) as they can/do forbid writable and executable mappings. Also, map PROT_NONE guard pages at start and end of guest memory for extra paranoia. I changed the length check to addr + size > guest_limit because >= is wrong (addr of 0, size of getpagesize() with a guest_limit of getpagesize() would false positive).
