commit
6321e3ed2acf3ee9643cdd403e1c88605d7944ba caused
the full bmv_count's worth of getbmapx structures to get
allocated; telling it to do MAXEXTNUM was a bit insane,
resulting in ENOMEM every time.
Chop it down to something reasonable, the number of slots
in the caller's input buffer. If this is too large the
caller may get ENOMEM but the reason should not be a
mystery, and they can try again with something smaller.
We add 1 to the value because in the normal getbmap
world, bmv_count includes the header and xfs_getbmap does:
nex = bmv->bmv_count - 1;
if (nex <= 0)
return XFS_ERROR(EINVAL);

The async block group caching code uses the commit_root pointer

This copy of the tree root isn't going to change and it significantly

During a commit, we have a loop where we update the extent allocation
tree root. We need to loop because updating the root pointer in

GFS2: keep statfs info in sync on grows
GFS2 wasn't syncing its statfs info on grows. This causes a problem
when you grow the filesystem on multiple nodes. GFS2 would calculate
the new space based on the resource groups (which are always current),
and then assume that the filesystem had grown the from the existing
statfs size. If you grew the filesystem on two different nodes in a
short time, the second node wouldn't see the statfs size change from the
first node, and would assume that it was grown by a larger amount than
it was. When all these changes were synced out, the total fileystem
size would be incorrect (the first grow would be counted twice).

a grow, and write them out after the grow, while the master statfs inode

the Lguest Journey (see drivers/lguest/README). Since we now use RCU in
a simple form in one place I took the opportunity to expand that explanation.

lib: flexible array implementation
Once a structure goes over PAGE_SIZE*2, we see occasional allocation
failures. Some people have chosen to switch over to things like vmalloc()
that will let them keep array-like access to such a large structures.
But, vmalloc() has plenty of downsides.
Here's an alternative. I think it's what Andrew was suggesting here:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/2/518
I call it a flexible array. It does all of its work in PAGE_SIZE bits, so
never does an order>0 allocation. The base level has
PAGE_SIZE-2*sizeof(int) bytes of storage for pointers to the second level.
So, with a 32-bit arch, you get about 4MB (
4183112 bytes) of total
storage when the objects pack nicely into a page. It is half that on
64-bit because the pointers are twice the size. There's a table detailing
this in the code.
There are kerneldocs for the functions, but here's an
overview:
flex_array_alloc() - dynamically allocate a base structure
flex_array_free() - free the array and all of the
second-level pages
flex_array_free_parts() - free the second-level pages, but
not the base (for static bases)
flex_array_put() - copy into the array at the given index
flex_array_get() - copy out of the array at the given index
flex_array_prealloc() - preallocate the second-level pages
between the given indexes to
guarantee no allocs will occur at
put() time.
We could also potentially just pass the "element_size" into each of the
API functions instead of storing it internally. That would get us one
more base pointer on 32-bit.
I've been testing this by running it in userspace. The header and patch
that I've been using are here, as well as the little script I'm using to
generate the size table which goes in the kerneldocs.

sdhci: get rid of "frequency too high" flood when using eSDHC
Since commit
8dfd0374be84793360db7fff2e635d2cd3bbcb21 ("MMC core: limit
minimum initialization frequency to 400kHz") MMC core checks for minimum
frequency, and that causes following messages flood when using eSDHC
controllers:
...
mmc0: Minimum clock frequency too high for identification mode
mmc0: Minimum clock frequency too high for identification mode
...
The warnings are legitimate, since if we'd use 133 MHz clocks for standard
SDHCI controllers, we'd not able to scale frequency down to 400 kHz.
But eSDHC controllers have a non-standard SD clock management, so we can
divide clock by 256 * 16, not just 256.
This patch introduces get_min_clock() callback for sdhci core and
implements it for sdhci-of driver, and thus fixes the issue.

sysrq, kdump: make sysrq-c consistent
commit
d6580a9f15238b87e618310c862231ae3f352d2d ("kexec: sysrq: simplify
sysrq-c handler") changed the behavior of sysrq-c to unconditional
dereference of NULL pointer. So in cases with CONFIG_KEXEC, where
crash_kexec() was directly called from sysrq-c before, now it can be said
that a step of "real oops" was inserted before starting kdump.
However, in contrast to oops via SysRq-c from keyboard which results in
panic due to in_interrupt(), oops via "echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger" will
not become panic unless panic_on_oops=1. It means that even if dump is
properly configured to be taken on panic, the sysrq-c from proc interface
might not start crashdump while the sysrq-c from keyboard can start
crashdump. This confuses traditional users of kdump, i.e. people who
expect sysrq-c to do common behavior in both of the keyboard and proc
interface.
This patch brings the keyboard and proc interface behavior of sysrq-c in
line, by forcing panic_on_oops=1 before oops in sysrq-c handler.
And some updates in documentation are included, to clarify that there is
no longer dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC, and that now the system can just
crash by sysrq-c if no dump mechanism is configured.

cgroup avoid permanent sleep at rmdir
After commit
ec64f51545fffbc4cb968f0cea56341a4b07e85a ("cgroup: fix
frequent -EBUSY at rmdir"), cgroup's rmdir (especially against memcg)
doesn't return -EBUSY by temporary ref counts. That commit expects all
refs after pre_destroy() is temporary but...it wasn't. Then, rmdir can
wait permanently. This patch tries to fix that and change followings.
- set CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR flag before pre_destroy().
- clear CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR flag when the subsys finds racy case.
if there are sleeping ones, wakes them up.
- rmdir() sleeps only when CGRP_WAIT_ON_RMDIR flag is set.

eeprom/at25: bugfix "not ready" timeout after write
Under certain circumstances msleep(1) within the loop, which waits for the
EEPROM to be finished, might take longer than the timeout. On the next
loop the status register might now return to be ready and therefore the
loop finishes. The following check now tests if a timeout occurred and if
so returns an error although the device reported it was ready.
This fix replaces testing the occurrence of the timeout by testing the
"not ready" bit in the status register.

cgroups: fix pid namespace bug
The bug was introduced by commit
cc31edceee04a7b87f2be48f9489ebb72d264844
("cgroups: convert tasks file to use a seq_file with shared pid array").
We cache a pid array for all threads that are opening the same "tasks"
file, but the pids in the array are always from the namespace of the
last process that opened the file, so all other threads will read pids
from that namespace instead of their own namespaces.
To fix it, we maintain a list of pid arrays, which is keyed by pid_ns.
The list will be of length 1 at most time.

lib: export generic atomic64_t functions
The generic atomic64_t implementation in lib/ did not export the functions
it defined, which means that modules that use atomic64_t would not link on
platforms (such as 32-bit powerpc). For example, trying to build a kernel
with CONFIG_NET_RDS on such a platform would fail with:
ERROR: "atomic64_read" [net/rds/rds.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "atomic64_set" [net/rds/rds.ko] undefined!
Fix this by exporting the atomic64_t functions to modules. (I export the

having to continue fixing this in dribs and drabs)

hugetlbfs: fix i_blocks accounting
As reported in Red Hat bz #509671, i_blocks for files on hugetlbfs get
accounting wrong when doing something like:
$ > foo
$ date > foo
date: write error: Invalid argument
$ /usr/bin/stat foo
File: `foo'
Size: 0 Blocks:
18446744073709547520 IO Block:
2097152 regular
...
This is because hugetlb_unreserve_pages() is unconditionally removing
blocks_per_huge_page(h) on each call rather than using the freed amount.
If there were 0 blocks, it goes negative, resulting in the above.
This is a regression from commit
a5516438959d90b071ff0a484ce4f3f523dc3152
("hugetlb: modular state for hugetlb page size")
which did:
- inode->i_blocks -= BLOCKS_PER_HUGEPAGE * freed;
+ inode->i_blocks -= blocks_per_huge_page(h);
so just put back the freed multiplier, and it's all happy again.

rtc-cmos has two drivers, one PNP and one platform. When PNP has not
succeeded probing, platform is registered. However, it tries to
unregister both drivers unconditionally, instead of only unregistering

Without the fix the driver causes extra clocks to be clocked to the bus
