16 years agobonding: Use msecs_to_jiffies, eliminate panic

bonding: Use msecs_to_jiffies, eliminate panic

Convert bonding to use msecs_to_jiffies instead of doing the
math.  For the ARP monitor, there was an underflow problem that could
result in an infinite loop.  The miimon already had that worked around,
but this is cleaner.

Originally by Nicolas de Pesloüan <nicolas.2p.debian@free.fr>
Jay Vosburgh corrected a math error in the original; Nicolas' original
commit message is:

When setting arp_interval parameter to a very low value, delta_in_ticks
for next arp might become 0, causing an infinite loop.

See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10680

Same problem for miimon parameter already fixed, but fix might be
enhanced, by using msecs_to_jiffies() function.

the proper error path is for device_rename to return an error code, not to

Remove blkdev warning triggered by using md

As setting and clearing queue flags now requires that we hold a spinlock
on the queue, and as blk_queue_stack_limits is called without that lock,
get the lock inside blk_queue_stack_limits.

For blk_queue_stack_limits to be able to find the right lock, each md
personality needs to set q->queue_lock to point to the appropriate lock.
Those personalities which didn't previously use a spin_lock, us
q->__queue_lock.  So always initialise that lock when allocated.

With this in place, setting/clearing of the QUEUE_FLAG_PLUGGED bit will no
longer cause warnings as it will be clear that the proper lock is held.

Thanks to Dan Williams for review and fixing the silly bugs.

16 years agomemory_hotplug: always initialize pageblock bitmap
Heiko Carstens [Wed, 14 May 2008 23:05:52 +0000 (16:05 -0700)]
memory_hotplug: always initialize pageblock bitmap

Trying to online a new memory section that was added via memory hotplug
sometimes results in crashes when the new pages are added via __free_page.
 Reason for that is that the pageblock bitmap isn't initialized and hence
contains random stuff.  That means that get_pageblock_migratetype()
returns also random stuff and therefore

list_add(&page->lru,
&zone->free_area[order].free_list[migratetype]);

in __free_one_page() tries to do a list_add to something that isn't even
necessarily a list.

This happens since 86051ca5eaf5e560113ec7673462804c54284456 ("mm: fix
usemap initialization") which makes sure that the pageblock bitmap gets
only initialized for pages present in a zone.  Unfortunately for hot-added
memory the zones "grow" after the memmap and the pageblock memmap have
been initialized.  Which means that the new pages have an unitialized
bitmap.  To solve this the calls to grow_zone_span() and grow_pgdat_span()
are moved to __add_zone() just before the initialization happens.

The patch also moves the two functions since __add_zone() is the only
caller and I didn't want to add a forward declaration.

9p: fix error path during early mount

a kernel bug for certain types of failure.  This patch reorganizes the
cleanup to get rid of the bad behavior.

This also merges the 9pnet and 9pnet_fd modules for the purpose of
configuration and initialization.  Keeping the fd transport separate
from the core 9pnet code seemed like a good idea at the time, but in

Markus Armbruster [Tue, 26 Feb 2008 15:57:11 +0000 (09:57 -0600)]
add match_strlcpy() us it to make v9fs make uname and remotename parsing more robust

match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure
that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or
forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer.

There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options().  I believe it currently
can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious.

The source string is a substing of the mount options.  The kernel silently
truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero.  See
compat_sys_mount() and do_mount().

The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from
name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX.

We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.  PATH_MAX is 4096.  As far as
I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096.

Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct.  It
doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.
