First messages said that unlinked inode has i_nlink=0, then ext3_unlink()
adds this inode into orphan list.
Second message means that this inode has not been removed from orphan list.
Inode dump has showed that i_fop = &bad_file_ops and it can be set in
make_bad_inode() only. Then I've found that ext3_read_inode() can call
make_bad_inode() without any error/warning messages, for example in the
following case:
...
if (inode->i_nlink == 0) {
if (inode->i_mode == 0 ||
!(EXT3_SB(inode->i_sb)->s_mount_state & EXT3_ORPHAN_FS)) {
/* this inode is deleted */
brelse (bh);
goto bad_inode;
...
Bad inode can live some time, ext3_unlink can add it to orphan list, but
ext3_delete_inode() do not deleted this inode from orphan list. As result
we can have orphan list corruption detected in ext3_destroy_inode().
However it is not clear for me how to fix this issue correctly.
As far as i see is_bad_inode() is called after iget() in all places
excluding ext3_lookup() and ext3_get_parent(). I believe it makes sense to
add bad inode check to these functions too and call iput if bad inode
detected.
Customers claims to ext3-related errors, investigation showed that ext3
orphan list has been corrupted and have the reference to non-ext3 inode.
The following debug helps to understand the reasons of this issue.

I forgot to remove capability.h from mm.h while removing sched.h! This
patch remedies that, because the only inline function which was using
CAP_something was made out of line.
Cross-compile tested without regressions on:
all powerpc defconfigs
all mips defconfigs
all m68k defconfigs
all arm defconfigs
all ia64 defconfigs
Original problem: in some circumstances seq_file interface can present
infinite proc file to the following script when normally said proc file is
finite:
while read line; do
[do something with $line]
done </proc/$FILE
Consider, proc file prints list of objects each of them consists of many
lines, each line is shorter than 128 bytes.
Two objects in list, with ->index'es being 0 and 1. Current one is 1, as
bash prints second object line by line.
Imagine first object being removed right before lseek().
traverse() will be called, because there is negative offset.
traverse() will reset ->index to 0 (!).
traverse() will call ->next() and get NULL in any usual iterate-over-list
code using list_for_each_entry_continue() and such. There is one object in
list now after all...
traverse() will return 0, lseek() will update file position and pretend
everything is OK.
So, what we have now: ->f_pos points to place where second object will be
printed, but ->index is 0. seq_read() instead of returning EOF, will start
printing first line of first object every time it's called, until enough
objects are added to ->f_pos return in bounds.
Fix is to update ->index only after we're sure we saw enough objects down
the road.

The RXBRK field in the AT91/AT32 USART status register has the
following definition according to e.g. the AT32AP7000 data sheet:
RXBRK: Break Received/End of Break
0: No Break received or End of Break detected since the last RSTSTA.
1: Break Received or End of Break detected since the last RSTSTA.
Thus, for each break, the USART sets the RXBRK bit twice. This patch
modifies the driver to report the break event to the serial core only
once by keeping track of whether a break condition is currently
active. The break_active flag is reset as soon as a character is
received, so even if we miss the start-of-break interrupt this should
do the right thing.

Part two in the O_CLOEXEC saga: adding support for file descriptors received
through Unix domain sockets.
The patch is once again pretty minimal, it introduces a new flag for recvmsg
and passes it just like the existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT flag. I think this bit
is not used otherwise but the networking people will know better.
This new flag is not recognized by recvfrom and recv. These functions cannot
be used for that purpose and the asymmetry this introduces is not worse than
the already existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT situations.
The patch must be applied on the patch which introduced O_CLOEXEC. It has to
remove static from the new get_unused_fd_flags function but since scm.c cannot
live in a module the function still hasn't to be exported.
Here's a test program to make sure the code works. It's so much longer than
the actual patch...

The problem is as follows: in multi-threaded code (or more correctly: all
code using clone() with CLONE_FILES) we have a race when exec'ing.
thread #1 thread #2
fd=open()
fork + exec
fcntl(fd,F_SETFD,FD_CLOEXEC)
In some applications this can happen frequently. Take a web browser. One
thread opens a file and another thread starts, say, an external PDF viewer.
The result can even be a security issue if that open file descriptor
refers to a sensitive file and the external program can somehow be tricked
into using that descriptor.
Just adding O_CLOEXEC support to open() doesn't solve the whole set of
problems. There are other ways to create file descriptors (socket,
epoll_create, Unix domain socket transfer, etc). These can and should be
addressed separately though. open() is such an easy case that it makes not
much sense putting the fix off.

Fix ksoftirqd termination on cpu hotplug with naughty real time process.
Assuming the following case:
- Try to hot remove CPU2 from CPU1.
- There is a real time process on CPU2, and that process doesn't sleep at all.
- That rt process and ksoftirqd/2 is migrated to the CPU0
Then ksoftirqd/2 can't stop becasue that rt process runs everlastingly on
CPU0, and CPU1 waiting the ksoftirqd/2's termination hangs up. To fix this
problem, set the priority of ksoftirqd/2 to max one before kthread_stop().
Fix stop_machine_run problem with naughty real time process
stop_machine_run() does its work on "kstopmachine" thread having max
priority. However that thread get such priority after woken up.
Therefore, in the following case ...
- "kstopmachine" try to run on CPU1
- There is a real time process which doesn't relinquish CPU time
voluntary on CPU1
... "kstopmachine" can't start to run and the CPU on which
stop_machine_run() is runing hangs up. To fix this problem, call
sched_setscheduler() before waking up that thread.

Use boot based time for uptime in /proc
Commit 411187fb05cd11676b0979d9fbf3291db69dbce2 caused uptime not to increase
during suspend. This may cause confusion so I restore the old behaviour by
using the boot based time instead of monotonic for uptime.

Use boot based time for process start time and boot time in /proc
Commit 411187fb05cd11676b0979d9fbf3291db69dbce2 caused boot time to move and
process start times to become invalid after suspend. Using boot based time
for those restores the old behaviour and fixes the issue.

changed the monotonic time so that it no longer jumps after resume, but it's
not possible to use it for boot time and process start time calculations then.
Also, the uptime no longer increases during suspend.
I add a variable to track the wall_to_monotonic changes, a function to get the
real boot time and a function to get the boot based time from the monotonic
one.

Before calling init_hwif_default, ide_unregister gets lock ide_lock and
disables irq. init_hwif_default calls ide_default_io_base which calls
pci_get_device and later pci_get_subsys tries to apply for semaphore
pci_bus_sem and goes to sleep.
Mostly, pci_get_device should be called when irq is turned on.
ide_default_io_base just needs find if list pci_devices is empty.

- have ALSA drivers for the same hardware without known regressions and
- whose Kconfig options have been removed in 2.6.20.

Fix following races:
===========================================
1. Write via ->write_proc sleeps in copy_from_user(). Module disappears
meanwhile. Or, more generically, system call done on /proc file, method
supplied by module is called, module dissapeares meanwhile.
NOTE, NOTE, NOTE: file_operations are proxied for regular files only. Let's
see how this scheme behaves, then extend if needed for directories.
Directories creators in /proc only set ->owner for them, so proxying for
directories may be unneeded.
NOTE, NOTE, NOTE: methods being proxied are ->llseek, ->read, ->write,
->poll, ->unlocked_ioctl, ->ioctl, ->compat_ioctl, ->open, ->release.
If your in-tree module uses something else, yell on me. Full audit pending.
