2005-10-11[PATCH] binfmt_elf bss padding fixakpm@osdl.org1-1/+1
Nir Tzachar <tzachar@cs.bgu.ac.il> points out that if an ELF file specifies a zero-length bss at a whacky address, we cannot load that binary because padzero() tries to zero out the end of the page at the whacky address, and that may not be writeable. See also http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5411 So teach load_elf_binary() to skip the bss settng altogether if the elf file has a zero-length bss segment.

2005-10-11[PATCH] nfsacl: Solaris VxFS compatibility fixAndreas Gruenbacher1-35/+35
Here is a compatibility fix between Linux and Solaris when used with VxFS filesystems: Solaris usually accepts acl entries in any order, but with VxFS it replies with NFSERR_INVAL when it sees a four-entry acl that is not in canonical form. It may also fail with other non-canonical acls -- I can't tell, because that case never triggers: We only send non-canonical acls when we fake up an ACL_MASK entry. Instead of adding fake ACL_MASK entries at the end, inserting them in the correct position makes Solaris+VxFS happy. The Linux client and server sides don't care about entry order. The three-entry-acl special case in which we need a fake ACL_MASK entry was handled in xdr_nfsace_encode. The patch moves this into nfsacl_encode.

2005-10-11[PATCH] v9fs: remove additional buffer allocation from v9fs_file_read and ↵Latchesar Ionkov1-81/+33
v9fs_file_write v9fs_file_read and v9fs_file_write use kmalloc to allocate buffers as big as the data buffer received as parameter. kmalloc cannot be used to allocate buffers bigger than 128K, so reading/writing data in chunks bigger than 128k fails. This patch reorganizes v9fs_file_read and v9fs_file_write to allocate only buffers as big as the maximum data that can be sent in one 9P message.

2005-10-06Avoid 'names_cache' memory leak with CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALLLinus Torvalds1-3/+3
The nameidata "last.name" is always allocated with "__getname()", and should always be free'd with "__putname()". Using "putname()" without the underscores will leak memory, because the allocation will have been hidden from the AUDITSYSCALL code. Arguably the real bug is that the AUDITSYSCALL code is really broken, but in the meantime this fixes the problem people see. Reported by Robert Derr, patch by Rick Lindsley.

2005-10-04[PATCH] bfs iget() abusesAl Viro1-12/+30
bfs_fill_super() walks the inode table to get the bitmap of free inodes and collect stats. It has no business using iget() for that - it's a lot of extra work, extra icache pollution and more complex code. Switched to walking the damn thing directly. Note: that also allows to kill ->i_dsk_ino in there - separate patch if Tigran can confirm that this field can be zero only for deleted inodes (i.e. something that could only be found during that scan and not by normal lookups).

2005-09-30[PATCH] uml: remove empty hostfs_truncate methodPaolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso1-7/+0
Calling truncate() on hostfs spits a kernel warning "Something isn't implemented here", but it still works fine. Indeed, hostfs i_op->truncate doesn't do anything. But hostfs_setattr() -> set_attr() correctly detects ATTR_SIZE and calls truncate() on the host. So we should be safe (using ftruncate() may be better, in case the file is unlinked on the host, but we aren't sure to have the file open for writing, and reopening it would cause the same races; plus nobody should expect UML to be so careful). So, the warning is wrong, because the current implementation is working. Al, am I correct, and can the warning be therefore dropped?

2005-09-30[PATCH] aio: remove unlocked task_list test and resulting raceZach Brown1-46/+33
Only one of the run or kick path is supposed to put an iocb on the run list. If both of them do it than one of them can end up referencing a freed iocb. The kick path could delete the task_list item from the wait queue before getting the ctx_lock and putting the iocb on the run list. The run path was testing the task_list item outside the lock so that it could catch ki_retry methods that return -EIOCBRETRY *without* putting the iocb on a wait queue and promising to call kick_iocb. This unlocked check could then race with the kick path to cause both to try and put the iocb on the run list. The patch stops the run path from testing task_list by requring that any ki_retry that returns -EIOCBRETRY *must* guarantee that kick_iocb() will be called in the future. aio_p{read,write}, the only in-tree -EIOCBRETRY users, are updated.

2005-09-30[PATCH] aio: lock around kiocbTryKick()Zach Brown1-7/+12
Only one of the run or kick path is supposed to put an iocb on the run list. If both of them do it than one of them can end up referencing a freed iocb. The kick patch could set the Kicked bit before acquiring the ctx_lock and putting the iocb on the run list. The run path, while holding the ctx_lock, could see this partial kick and mistake it for a kick that was deferred while it was doing work with the run_list NULLed out. It would then race with the kick thread to add the iocb to the run list. This patch moves the kick setting under the ctx_lock so that only one of the kick or run path queues the iocb on the run list, as intended.

Fid management cleanup. The patch attempts to fix the races in dentry's fid management. Dentries don't keep the opened fids anymore, they are moved to the file structs. Ideally there should be no more than one fid with fidcreate equal to zero in the dentry's list of fids. v9fs_fid_create initializes the important fields (fid, fidcreated) before v9fs_fid is added to the list. v9fs_fid_lookup returns only fids that are not created by v9fs_create. v9fs_fid_get_created returns the fid created by the same process by v9fs_create (if any) and removes it from dentry's list Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net> Cc: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
