Catalin Marinas [Wed, 8 Jul 2009 10:17:40 +0000 (11:17 +0100)] 
Free struct device in fw_dev_release()

The f_dev in _request_firmware() is allocated via the fw_setup_device()
and fw_register_device() calls and its class set to firmware_class (the
class release function is fw_dev_release).

Commit 6acf70f078ca replaced the kfree(dev) in fw_dev_release() with a
put_device() call but my understanding is that the release function is
called via put_device -> kobject_put -> kref_put -> koject_release etc.
and it should call kfree since it's the last to see this device
structure alive.

Because of that, the _request_firmware() function on its -ENOENT error
path only calls device_unregister(f_dev) which would eventually call
fw_dev_release() but there is no kfree (the subsequent put_device call
would just make the kref negative).

Jiaying Zhang [Tue, 7 Jul 2009 16:15:21 +0000 (18:15 +0200)] 
quota: Fix possible deadlock during parallel quotaon and quotaoff

The following test script triggers a deadlock on ext2 filesystem:
while true; do quotaon /dev/hda >&/dev/null; usleep $RANDOM; done &
while true; do quotaoff /dev/hda >&/dev/null; usleep $RANDOM; done &

I found there is a potential deadlock between quotaon and quotaoff (or
quotasync). Basically, all of quotactl operations need to be protected by
dqonoff_mutex. vfs_quota_off and vfs_quota_sync also call sb->s_op->quota_write
that needs to grab the i_mutex of the quota file.  But in vfs_quota_on_inode
(called from quotaon operation), the current code tries to grab  the i_mutex of
the quota file first before getting quonoff_mutex.

Reverse the order in which we take locks in vfs_quota_on_inode().

  I_MUTEX_QUOTA.

regression was noticed when running iozone.  This regression was

elf: fix multithreaded program core dumping on arm

Fix the multithread program core thread message error.

This issue affects arches with neither has CORE_DUMP_USE_REGSET nor
ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS, ARM is one of them.

The thread message of core file is generated in elf_dump_thread_status.
The register values is set by elf_core_copy_task_regs in this function.

If an arch doesn't define ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS,
elf_core_copy_task_regs() will do nothing.  Then the core file will not
have the register message of thread.

So add elf_core_copy_regs to set regiser values if ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS
doesn't define.

The following is how to reproduce this issue:

cat 1.c

#include <pthread.h>
#include <assert.h>

with kernel 2.6.30, 2.6.31-rc1 has about 16% regression with
ffsb_create_4k.  The sub test case creates files continuously for 10
minitues and every file is 1MB.

commit 5cee5815d1564bbbd505fea86f4550f1efdb5cd0

    vfs: Make sys_sync() use fsync_super() (version 4)

    It is unnecessarily fragile to have two places (fsync_super() and do_sync())
    doing data integrity sync of the filesystem. Alter __fsync_super() to
    accommodate needs of both callers and use it. So after this patch
    __fsync_super() is the only place where we gather all the calls needed to
    properly send all data on a filesystem to disk.

As a matter of fact, ffsb calls sys_sync in the end to make sure all data
is flushed to disks and the flushing is counted into the result.  vmstat
shows ffsb is blocked when syncing for a long time.  With 2.6.30, ffsb is
blocked for a short time.

I checked the patch and did experiments to recover the original methods.
Eventually, the root cause is the patch deletes the calling to
wakeup_pdflush when syncing, so only ffsb is blocked on disk I/O.
wakeup_pdflush could ask pdflush to write back pages with ffsb at the
same time.
