With some hardware combinations, the PCM interrupts are acknowledged before the period boundary from the emu10k1 chip. The midlevel PCM code gets confused and the playback stream is interrupted. It seems that the interrupt processing shift by 2 samples is enough to fix this issue. This default value does not harm other, non-affected hardware.

commit 7b6d91da changed the behaviour of a few variables in raid1 and raid10 from flags to bit-sets, but left them as type 'bool' so they did not work. Change them (back) to unsigned long.

The arch/m68k/include/asm/ide.h produces errors when the IDE driver is compiled for my 523x uClinux system under kernel.

md_check_recovery expects ->spare_active to return 'true' if any spares were activated, but none of them do, so the consequent change in 'degraded' is not notified through sysfs. So count the number of spares activated, subtract it from 'degraded' just once, and return it. Reported-by: Adrian Drzewiecki <adriand@vmware.com> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>

When RAID1 is done syncing disks, it'll update the state of synced rdevs to In_sync. But it neglected to notify sysfs that the attribute changed. So any programs that are waiting for an rdev's state to change will not be woken.

The update of ->recovery_offset in sync_sbs is appropriate even then external metadata is in use. However sync_sbs is only called when native metadata is used. So move that update in to the top of md_update_sb (which is the only caller of sync_sbs) before the test on ->external. This moves the update out of ->write_lock protection, but those fields only need ->reconfig_mutex protection which they still have. Also move the test on ->persistent up to where ->external is set as for metadata update purposes they are the same. Clear MD_CHANGE_DEVS and MD_CHANGE_CLEAN as they can only be confusing if ->external is set or ->persistent isn't. Finally move the update of ->utime down as it is only relevent (like the ->events update) for native metadata.

Using a program like the following: #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> int main() { id_t id; siginfo_t infop; pid_t res; id = fork(); if (id == 0) { sleep(1); exit(0); } kill(id, SIGSTOP); alarm(1); waitid(P_PID, id, &infop, WCONTINUED); return 0; } to call waitid() on a stopped process results in access to the child task's credentials without the RCU read lock being held - which may be replaced in the meantime - eliciting the following warning: =================================================== [ INFO: suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage. ] --------------------------------------------------- kernel/exit.c:1460 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection! other info that might help us debug this: rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1 2 locks held by waitid02/22252: #0: (tasklist_lock){.?.?..}, at: [<ffffffff81061ce5>] do_wait+0xc5/0x310 #1: (&(&sighand->siglock)->rlock){-.-...}, at: [<ffffffff810611da>] wait_consider_task+0x19a/0xbe0 stack backtrace: Pid: 22252, comm: waitid02 Not tainted 2.6.35-323cd+ #3 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81095da4>] lockdep_rcu_dereference+0xa4/0xc0 [<ffffffff81061b31>] wait_consider_task+0xaf1/0xbe0 [<ffffffff81061d15>] do_wait+0xf5/0x310 [<ffffffff810620b6>] sys_waitid+0x86/0x1f0 [<ffffffff8105fce0>] ? child_wait_callback+0x0/0x70 [<ffffffff81003282>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b This is fixed by holding the RCU read lock in wait_task_continued() to ensure that the task's current credentials aren't destroyed between us reading the cred pointer and us reading the UID from those credentials. Furthermore, protect wait_task_stopped() in the same way. We don't need to keep holding the RCU read lock once we've read the UID from the credentials as holding the RCU read lock doesn't stop the target task from changing its creds under us - so the credentials may be outdated immediately after we've read the pointer, lock or no lock.

Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles correctly on ARM: arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to. This is because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to copy_strings_kernel(). A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel(). do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as const should be fine. Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match. This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.

As noticed by Linus, it is critical that some of the rwsem constants be signed. Yet, hex constants are unsigned unless explicitly casted or negated. The most critical one is RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS.

This patch fixes missing includes from a number of .c files because the code (wrongfully) depended on prom.h including them.

After rlimits tree was merged we get the following errors: security/apparmor/lsm.c:663:2: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type It is because AppArmor was merged in the meantime, but uses the old prototype. So fix it by adding struct task_struct as a first parameter of apparmor_task_setrlimit. NOTE that this is ONLY a compilation warning fix (and crashes caused by that). It needs proper handling in AppArmor depending on who is the 'task'.
