Since commit 97d97224 ("[SERIAL] Fix console initialisation ordering"), serial_core calls ->pm() on initialization even if the port was used for console. This behaviour breaks serial_txx9 console since The serial_txx9 driver initialize its port entirely on its ->pm() method if new state was 0. This patch adds checking for oldstate value to fix this probelm.

Evgeniy said: I wonder on what type of UFS do you test this patch? NetBSD and FreeBSD do not use "fs_state", they use "fs_clean" flag, only Solaris does check like this: fs_state + fs_time == FSOK. That's why parentheses was like that. At now with linux-2.6.24-rc1-git1, I get: fs need fsck, but NetBSD's fsck says that's all ok. I suggest revert this patch.

It's possible to provoke unionfs (not yet in mainline, though in mm and some distros) to hit shmem_writepage's BUG_ON(page_mapped(page)). I expect it's possible to provoke the 2.6.23 ecryptfs in the same way (but the 2.6.24 ecryptfs no longer calls lower level's ->writepage). This came to light with the recent find that AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE could leak from tmpfs via write_cache_pages and unionfs to userspace. There's already a fix (e4230030 - writeback: don't propagate AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE) in the tree for that, and it's okay so far as it goes; but insufficient because it doesn't address the underlying issue, that shmem_writepage expects to be called only by vmscan (relying on backing_dev_info capabilities to prevent the normal writeback path from ever approaching it). That's an increasingly fragile assumption, and ramdisk_writepage (the other source of AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATEs) is already careful to check wbc->for_reclaim before returning it. Make the same check in shmem_writepage, thereby sidestepping the page_mapped BUG also.

mm/sparse-vmemmap.c uses init_mm in some places. However, it is not present in any of the headers currently included in the file. init_mm is defined as extern in sched.h, so we add it to the headers list Up to now, this problem was masked by the fact that functions like set_pte_at() and pmd_populate_kernel() are usually macros that expand to simpler variants that does not use the first parameter at all.

On systems with a very large amount of memory, the heuristics in alloc_large_system_hash() result in a very large TCP established hash table: 16 millions of entries for a 128 GB ia64 system. This makes reading from /proc/net/tcp pretty slow (well over a second) and as a result netstat is slow on these machines. I know that /proc/net/tcp is deprecated in favor of tcp_diag, however at the moment netstat only knows of the former. I am skeptical that such a large TCP established hash is often needed. Just because a system has a lot of memory doesn't imply that it will have several millions of concurrent TCP connections. Thus I believe that we should put an arbitrary high limit to the size of the TCP established hash by default. Users who really need a bigger hash can always use the thash_entries boot parameter to get more. I propose 2 millions of entries as the arbitrary high limit. This makes /proc/net/tcp reasonably fast on the system in question (0.2 s) while being still large enough for me to be confident that network performance won't suffer. This is just one way to limit the hash size, there are others; I am not familiar enough with the TCP code to decide which is best. Thus, I would welcome the proposals of alternatives. [ 2 million is still too large, thus I've modified the limit in the change to be '512 * 1024'. -DaveM ] Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

TCP Vegas implementation has a bug in the process of disabling slow-start with gamma parameter. The bug may lead to extreme unfairness in the presence of early packet loss. See details in: http://www.cs.caltech.edu/~weixl/technical/ns2linux/known_linux/index.html#vegas Switch the order of "if (tp->snd_cwnd <= tp->snd_ssthresh)" statement and "if (diff > gamma)" statement to eliminate the problem.

Instead of using the default timeout of 3 minutes, this uses the timeout specific to the protocol used for the connection. The 3 minute timeout seems somewhat arbitrary (though I know it is used other places in the ipvs code) and when failing over it would be much nicer to use one of the configured timeout values.
