17 years ago[NET]: Zero length write() on socket should not simply return 0.
David S. Miller [Thu, 27 Sep 2007 20:52:00 +0000 (13:52 -0700)]
[NET]: Zero length write() on socket should not simply return 0.

This fixes kernel bugzilla #5731

It should generate an empty packet for datagram protocols when the
socket is connected, for one.

The check is doubly-wrong because all that a write() can be is a
sendmsg() call with a NULL msg_control and a single entry iovec.  No
special semantics should be assigned to it, therefore the zero length
check should be removed entirely.

This matches the behavior of BSD and several other systems.

Alan Cox notes that SuSv3 says the behavior of a zero length write on
non-files is "unspecified", but that's kind of useless since BSD has
defined this behavior for a quarter century and BSD is essentially
what application folks code to.

Revert "x86-64: Disable local APIC timer use on AMD systems with C1E"

This reverts commit e66485d747505e9d960b864fc6c37f8b2afafaf0, since
Rafael Wysocki noticed that the change only works for his in -mm, not in
mainline (and that both "noapictimer" _and_ "apicmaintimer" are broken
on his hardware, but that's apparently not a regression, just a symptom
of the same issue that causes the automatic apic timer disable to not
work).

It turns out that it really doesn't work correctly on x86-64, since
x86-64 doesn't use the generic clock events for timers yet.

Thanks to Rafal for testing, and here's the ugly details on x86-64 as
per Thomas:

  "I just looked into the code and the logic vs.  noapictimer on SMP is
   completely broken.

   On i386 the noapictimer option not only disables the local APIC
   timer, it also registers the CPUs for broadcasting via IPI on SMP
   systems.

   The x86-64 code uses the broadcast only when the local apic timer is
   active, i.e.  "noapictimer" is not on the command line.  This defeats
   the whole purpose of "noapictimer".  It should be there to make boxen
   work, where the local APIC timer actually has a hardware problem,
   e.g.  the nx6325.

   The current implementation of x86_64 only fixes the ACPI c-states
   related problem where the APIC timer stops in C3(2), nothing else.

   On nx6325 and other AMD X2 equipped systems which have the C1E
   enabled we run into the following:

   PIT keeps jiffies (and the system) running, but the local APIC timer
   interrupts can get out of sync due to this C1E effect.

   I don't think this is a critical problem, but it is wrong
   nevertheless.

   I think it's safe to revert the C1E patch and postpone the fix to the
   clock events conversion."

On further reflection, Thomas noted:

   "It's even worse than I thought on the first check:

    "noapictimer" on the command line of an SMP box prevents _ONLY_ the
    boot CPU apic timer from being used.  But the secondary CPU is still
    unconditionally setting up the APIC timer and uses the non
    calibrated variable calibration_result, which is of course 0, to
    setup the APIC timer.  Wreckage guaranteed."

so we'll just have to wait for the x86 merge to hopefully fix this up
for x86-64.

x86-64: Disable local APIC timer use on AMD systems with C1E

commit 3556ddfa9284a86a59a9b78fe5894430f6ab4eef titled

 [PATCH] x86-64: Disable local APIC timer use on AMD systems with C1E

solves a problem with AMD dual core laptops e.g. HP nx6325 (Turion 64
X2) with C1E enabled:

When both cores go into idle at the same time, then the system switches
into C1E state, which is basically the same as C3. This stops the local
apic timer.

This was debugged right after the dyntick merge on i386 and despite the
patch title it fixes only the 32 bit path.

x86_64 is still missing this fix. It seems that mainline is not really
affected by this issue, as the PIT is running and keeps jiffies
incrementing, but that's just waiting for trouble.

-mm suffers from this problem due to the x86_64 high resolution timer
patches.

This is a quick and dirty port of the i386 code to x86_64.

I spent quite a time with Rafael to debug the -mm / hrt wreckage until
someone pointed us to this. I really had forgotten that we debugged this
half a year ago already.

Sigh, is it just me or is there something yelling arch/x86 into my ear?

state necessary to return read completions is available.  However the
process of determining whether more read requests are pending requires
locking the stripe (to block add_stripe_bio from updating dev->toead).
ops_complete_biofill can run in tasklet context, so rather than upgrading
all the stripe locks from spin_lock to spin_lock_bh this patch just
unconditionally reschedules handle_stripe after completing the read
request.

2/ ops_complete_biofill needlessly qualified processing R5_Wantfill with
dev->toread.  The result being that the 'biofill' pending bit is cleared
before handling the pending read-completions on dev->read.  R5_Wantfill can
be unconditionally handled because the 'biofill' pending bit prevents new
R5_Wantfill requests from being seen by ops_run_biofill and

clockevents: remove the suspend/resume workaround^Wthinko

In a desparate attempt to fix the suspend/resume problem on Andrews
VAIO I added a workaround which enforced the broadcast of the oneshot
timer on resume. This was actually resolving the problem on the VAIO
but was just a stupid workaround, which was not tackling the root
cause: the assignement of lower idle C-States in the ACPI processor_idle
code. The cpuidle patches, which utilize the dynamic tick feature and
go faster into deeper C-states exposed the problem again. The correct
solution is the previous patch, which prevents lower C-states across
the suspend/resume.

Remove the enforcement code, including the conditional broadcast timer
arming, which helped to pamper over the real problem for quite a time.
The oneshot broadcast flag for the cpu, which runs the resume code can
never be set at the time when this code is executed. It only gets set,
when the CPU is entering a lower idle C-State.

ACPI: disable lower idle C-states across suspend/resume

device_suspend() calls ACPI suspend functions, which seems to have undesired
side effects on lower idle C-states. It took me some time to realize that
especially the VAIO BIOSes (both Andrews jinxed UP and my elfstruck SMP one)
show this effect. I'm quite sure that other bug reports against suspend/resume
about turning the system into a brick have the same root cause.

After fishing in the dark for quite some time, I realized that removing the ACPI
processor module before suspend (this removes the lower C-state functionality)
made the problem disappear. Interestingly enough the propability of having a
bricked box is influenced by various factors (interrupts, size of the ram image,
...). Even adding a bunch of printks in the wrong places made the problem go
away. The previous periodic tick implementation simply pampered over the
problem, which explains why the dyntick / clockevents changes made this more
prominent.

We avoid complex functionality during the boot process and we have to do the
same during suspend/resume. It is a similar scenario and equaly fragile.

Add suspend / resume functions to the ACPI processor code and disable the lower
idle C-states across suspend/resume. Fall back to the default idle
implementation (halt) instead.

problem is that the first test it does is a cable integrity test for

The ocfs2 write code loops through a page much like the block code, except
that ocfs2 allocation units can be any size, including larger than page
size. Typically it's equal to or larger than page size - most kernels run 4k
pages, the minimum ocfs2 allocation (cluster) size.

Some changes introduced during 2.6.23 changed the way writes to pages are
handled, and inadvertantly broke support for > 4k page size. Instead of just
writing one cluster at a time, we now handle the whole page in one pass.

This means that multiple (small) seperate allocations might happen in the
same pass. The allocation code howver typically optimizes by getting the
maximum which was reserved. This triggered a BUG_ON in the extend code where
it'd ask for a single bit (for one part of a > 4k page) and get back more
than it asked for.

Fix this by providing a variant of the high level allocation function which
allows the caller to specify a maximum. The traditional function remains and
just calls the new one with a maximum determined from the initial

17 years agorpc: fix garbage in printk in svc_tcp_accept()
Wolfgang Walter [Thu, 20 Sep 2007 19:51:46 +0000 (15:51 -0400)]
rpc: fix garbage in printk in svc_tcp_accept()

we upgraded the kernel of a nfs-server from 2.6.17.11 to 2.6.22.6. Since
then we get the message

lockd: too many open TCP sockets, consider increasing the number of nfsd threads
lockd: last TCP connect from ^\\236^\É^D

These random characters in the second line are caused by a bug in
svc_tcp_accept.

(Note: there are two previous __svc_print_addr(sin, buf, sizeof(buf))
calls in this function, either of which would initialize buf correctly;
but both are inside "if"'s and are not necessarily executed.  This is
less obvious in the second case, which is inside a dprintk(), which is a
macro which expands to an if statement.)
