Revert the rtnl_lock API change, it is totally unneeded. Instead we manage the todo work inside of net/core/dev.c Also, we have to move sbin hotplug invocation outside of the RTNL semaphore as well, both for register and unregister.
-
David S. Miller authored
We had two major issues when unregistering networking devices. 1) Even trying to run hotplug asynchronously could deadlock if keventd was currently trying to get the RTNL semaphore in order to process linkwatch events. 2) Unregister needs to wait for the last reference to go away before the finalization of the unregister can execute. This cannot occur under the RTNL semaphore as this is deadlock prone as well. The solution is to do all of this stuff after dropping the RTNL semaphore. rtnl_lock, if it is about to protect a region of code that could unregister network devices, registers a list to which unregistered netdevs are attached. At rtnl_unlock time this list is processed to wait for refcounts to drop to zero and then finalize the unregister.

Noticed by Julie DeWandel <jdewand@redhat.com>. do_fork() needs to return the pid (or error), not the pointer to the resulting process structure. The process structure may not even be valid any more, since do_fork() has already woken the process up (and as a result it might already have done its thing and gone away). Besides, doing it this way cleans up the users, which all really just wanted the pid or error number _anyway_. This fixes the x86 users, other architectures need to be fixed up as well.

A familar type of Oops: d_path() can return an error ENAMETOOLONG, and if we fail to test a segfault occurs. So we must test. What we do is a different matter. Rather arbitrarily I return the string " (too long)" for use in /proc/mounts.

Several SCSI drivers confuse CHECK_CONDITION and CHECK_CONDITION << 1. One of them is NCR5380.c. Below a patch adding status_byte() twice. (On the other hand, sun3_NCR5380.c does this right, and generally looks better. Maybe they can be merged eventually.)

After # mount --rbind /tmp /mnt (on 2.5.68) I have a corrupted namespace. Umounting /mnt fails, and /proc/mounts contains ... /dev/root /mnt ext3 rw 0 0 proc /mnt/proc proc rw 0 0 usbfs /mnt/proc/bus/usb usbfs rw 0 0 /dev/hdb5 /mnt/usr reiserfs rw 0 0 ... where of course no directories /mnt/proc or /mnt/usr exist. This is caused by the fact that copy_tree() thinks that the dentry it is called with is the root of the filesystem. If it is not, confusion arose. This patch fixes this confusion.

- Fix possible memory leak in iso.c - Added handling for more than 1 Logical_Unit_Number entry in a unit directory for SBP-2. This allows for handling the second type of LUN that we didn't support yet.

This fixes a race noticed by Mike Galbraith: the scheduler can lose a rebalance tick if some task happens to not be rescheduled in time. This is not a fatal condition, but an inconsistency nevertheless.
-
Ingo Molnar authored
This fixes the scheduler's sync-wakeup code to be consistent on UP as well. Right now there's a behavioral difference between an UP kernel and an SMP kernel running on a UP box: sync wakeups (which are only activated on SMP) can cause a wakeup of a higher prio task, without preemption. On UP kernels this does not happen. This difference in wakeup behavior is bad. This patch activates sync wakeups on UP as well - in the cases sync wakeups are done the waker knows that it will schedule away soon, so this 'delay preemption' decision is correct on UP as well.
