Currently rebind_subsystems checks for the top cgroup's child list being empty in order to rebind subsystems into or out of a hierarchy - this can result in the set of subsystems bound to a hierarchy being removed-but-not-freed cgroup. The simplest fix for this is to forbid remounts that change the set of subsystems on a hierarchy that has removed-but-not-freed cgroups. This bug can be reproduced via: mkdir /mnt/cg mount -t cgroup -o ns,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg mkdir /mnt/cg/foo sleep 1h < /mnt/cg/foo & rmdir /mnt/cg/foo mount -t cgroup -o remount,ns,devices,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg kill $!

To fix this, VMI activation is split into two phases; the detection, which must happen before setting up ioremap, and the activation, which must happen after parsing early boot parameters. This fixes a crash on boot when VMI is enabled under VMware.

This seems to be meant as a kind of 'emergency fallback' for fonts without unicode mapping which otherwise would display nothing readable on the screen. At the moment it affects all chars for which no substitution character is defined. In particular this means that for all chars (>= 128) where there is no iso88591-1/unicode character (e.g. control character area) you'll get the very strange 1:1 mapping of the (cp437) graphics card glyphs. I'm pretty sure that the 1:1 mapping should only affect strict ASCII code characters, i.e. chars < 128. The patch limits the mapping as it probably was meant anyway.

Miller commit 7b363e440021a1cf9ed76944b2685f48dacefb3e Author: Neil Horman Date: Tue Dec 9 23:22:26 2008 -0800 netpoll: fix race on poll_list resulting in garbage entry A few months back a race was discused between the netpoll napi service path, and the fast path through net_rx_action: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/2007/10/16/345470 A patch was submitted for that bug, but I think we missed a case. Consider the following scenario: INITIAL STATE CPU0 has one napi_struct A on its poll_list CPU1 is calling netpoll_send_skb and needs to call poll_napi on the same napi_struct A that CPU0 has on its list CPU0 CPU1 net_rx_action poll_napi !list_empty (returns true) locks poll_lock for A poll_one_napi napi->poll netif_rx_complete __napi_complete (removes A from poll_list) list_entry(list->next) In the above scenario, net_rx_action assumes that the per-cpu poll_list is exclusive to that cpu. netpoll of course violates that, and because the netpoll path can dequeue from the poll list, its possible for CPU0 to detect a non-empty list at the top of the while loop in net_rx_action, but have it become empty by the time it calls list_entry. Since the poll_list isn't surrounded by any other structure, the returned data from that list_entry call in this situation is garbage, and any number of crashes can result based on what exactly that garbage is. Given that its not fasible for performance reasons to place exclusive locks arround each cpus poll list to provide that mutal exclusion, I think the best solution is modify the netpoll path in such a way that we continue to guarantee that the poll_list for a cpu is in fact exclusive to that cpu. To do this I've implemented the patch below. It adds an additional bit to the state field in the napi_struct. When executing napi->poll from the netpoll_path, this bit will be set. When a driver calls netif_rx_complete, if that bit is set, it will not remove the napi_struct from the poll_list. That work will be saved for the next iteration of net_rx_action. I've tested this and it seems to work well. About the biggest drawback I can see to it is the fact that it might result in an extra loop through net_rx_action in the event that the device is actually contended for (i.e. the netpoll path actually preforms all the needed work no the device, and the call to net_rx_action winds up doing nothing, except removing the napi_struct from the poll_list. However I think this is probably a small price to pay, given that the alternative is a crash. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman Signed-off-by: David S. Miller commit 24fc7b86dc0470616803be2f921c8cd5c459175d Author: Jan Sembera Date: Tue Dec 9 15:48:32 2008 -0800 ipv6: silence log messages for locally generated multicast This patch fixes minor annoyance during transmission of unsolicited neighbor advertisements from userspace to multicast addresses (as far as I can see in RFC, this is allowed and the similar functionality for IPv4 has been in arping for a long time). Outgoing multicast packets get reinserted into local processing as if they are received from the network. The machine thus sees its own NA and fills the logs with error messages. This patch removes the message if NA has been generated locally. Signed-off-by: Jan Sembera Signed-off-by: David S.

The seriallink case in the driver is untouched. Most values are hardcoded, because gigabit fibre autoneg is anyways limited and the driver don't really support much at the moment with that hardware.

Miller commit 8d3a564da34e5844aca4f991b73f8ca512246b23 Author: Doug Leith Date: Tue Dec 9 00:13:04 2008 -0800 tcp: tcp_vegas cong avoid fix This patch addresses a book-keeping issue in tcp_vegas.c. At present tcp_vegas does separate book-keeping of cwnd based on packet sequence numbers. A mismatch can develop between this book-keeping and tp->snd_cwnd due, for example, to delayed acks acking multiple packets. When vegas transitions to reno operation (e.g. following loss), then this mismatch leads to incorrect behaviour (akin to a cwnd backoff). This seems mostly to affect operation at low cwnds where delayed acking can lead to a significant fraction of cwnd being covered by a single ack, leading to the book-keeping mismatch. This patch modifies the congestion avoidance update to avoid the need for separate book-keeping while leaving vegas congestion avoidance functionally unchanged. A secondary advantage of this modification is that the use of fixed-point (via V_PARAM_SHIFT) and 64 bit arithmetic is no longer necessary, simplifying the code. Some example test measurements with the patched code (confirming no functional change in the congestion avoidance algorithm) can be seen at: http://www.hamilton.ie/doug/vegaspatch/ Signed-off-by: Doug Leith Signed-off-by: David S.

As reported by Hermann Lauer, PCS PHY support in the sungem driver simply doesn't work. When the chip is reset due to open, or some other similar operation, the PCS is reset too but we don't program it back into a running state. The result is no link when the device is brought up. This partially rectifies the situation for the moment, by kicking the PCS after a sungem chip reset so that it will renegotiate and be re-enabled again. The behavior is still a little bit dodgy as the added renegotiate make the link take some time after bringing the interface up, but this is a significant improvement in that things actually work now :-) Based almost entirely upon an initial patch by Hermann.
