We use this value to find an inode within the hash bucket, so we can't change this without re-hashing the inode. For now, treat this value as immutable. Eventually, we should probably use an inode number change on a path based operation to indicate that the lookup cache is invalid, but that's a bit more code to deal with.

m68k does not support SMP. The access to the rtc is already serialized with local_irq_save/restore which is sufficient on UP. The open() protection in arch/m68k/mvme16x/rtc.c is not pretty but sufficient on UP and safe w/o the BKL. open() in arch/m68k/bvme6000/rtc.c can do with the same atomic logic as arch/m68k/mvme16x/rtc.c Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org>

What a mess. It turns out this bad code is a result of us defining atomic_t as a volatile int. We removed the volatile attribute from the powerpc atomic_t definition years ago, but commit ea435467 (atomic_t: unify all arch definitions) added it back in. To dig up an old quote from Linus: > The fact is, volatile on data structures is a bug. It's a wart in the C > language. It shouldn't be used. > > Volatile accesses in *code* can be ok, and if we have "atomic_read()" > expand to a "*(volatile int *)&(x)->value", then I'd be ok with that. > > But marking data structures volatile just makes the compiler screw up > totally, and makes code for initialization sequences etc much worse. And screw up it does :) With the volatile removed, we see much more reasonable code generation: c00000000051f5b8: 3b 60 00 01 li r27,1 ... c00000000051f5c0: 3b 80 00 00 li r28,0 ... c00000000051fc7c: 7c 20 04 ac lwsync c00000000051fc80: 7c 00 f8 28 lwarx r0,0,r31 c00000000051fc84: 7c 00 d8 00 cmpw r0,r27 c00000000051fc88: 40 c2 00 10 bne- c00000000051fc98 c00000000051fc8c: 7f 80 f9 2d stwcx. r28,0,r31 c00000000051fc90: 40 c2 ff f0 bne+ c00000000051fc80 c00000000051fc94: 4c 00 01 2c isync Six instructions less.

Now we have a set of nested attributes: IFLA_VFINFO_LIST (NESTED) IFLA_VF_INFO (NESTED) IFLA_VF_MAC IFLA_VF_VLAN IFLA_VF_TX_RATE This allows a single set to operate on multiple attributes if desired. Among other things, it means a dump can be replayed to set state. The current interface has yet to be released, so this seems like something to consider for 2.6.34.

TCP MD5 support uses percpu data for temporary storage. It currently disables preemption so that same storage cannot be reclaimed by another thread on same cpu. We also have to make sure a softirq handler wont try to use also same context. Various bug reports demonstrated corruptions. Fix is to disable preemption and BH.

Shane McDonald authored
In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction. In odd corner cases, this can cause problems. For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred. In this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately. The solution is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of the FCSR register to be writeable. This is the behaviour of the hardware that the code is emulating. This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes to Kevin Kissell. In Kevin's words: I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op: case of the emulator. The Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction. I think that actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would work a good deal better. At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of the architecturally defined FPU. If I wanted to be really, really pedantic (which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't necessarily writable.
