unlock_buffer(), like unlock_page(), must not clear the lock without
ensuring that the critical section is closed.
Mingming later sent the same patch, saying:
We are running SDET benchmark and saw double free issue for ext3 extended
attributes block, which complains the same xattr block already being freed (in
ext3_xattr_release_block()). The problem could also been triggered by
multiple threads loop untar/rm a kernel tree.
The race is caused by missing a memory barrier at unlock_buffer() before the
lock bit being cleared, resulting in possible concurrent h_refcounter update.
That causes a reference counter leak, then later leads to the double free that
we have seen.
Inside unlock_buffer(), there is a memory barrier is placed *after* the lock
bit is being cleared, however, there is no memory barrier *before* the bit is
cleared. On some arch the h_refcount update instruction and the clear bit
instruction could be reordered, thus leave the critical section re-entered.
The race is like this: For example, if the h_refcount is initialized as 1,
cpu 0: cpu1
-------------------------------------- -----------------------------------
lock_buffer() /* test_and_set_bit */
clear_buffer_locked(bh);
lock_buffer() /* test_and_set_bit */
h_refcount = h_refcount+1; /* = 2*/ h_refcount = h_refcount + 1; /*= 2 */
clear_buffer_locked(bh);
.... ......
We lost a h_refcount here. We need a memory barrier before the buffer head lock
bit being cleared to force the order of the two writes. Please apply.

Extend the set of "__attribute__" shortcut macros, and remove identical
(and now superfluous) definitions from a couple of source files.
based on a page at robert love's blog:
http://rlove.org/log/2005102601
extend the set of shortcut macros defined in compiler-gcc.h with the
following:
#define __packed __attribute__((packed))
#define __weak __attribute__((weak))
#define __naked __attribute__((naked))
#define __noreturn __attribute__((noreturn))
#define __pure __attribute__((pure))
#define __aligned(x) __attribute__((aligned(x)))
#define __printf(a,b) __attribute__((format(printf,a,b)))
Once these are in place, it's up to subsystem maintainers to decide if they
want to take advantage of them. there is already a strong precedent for
using shortcuts like this in the source tree.
The ones that might give people pause are "__aligned" and "__printf", but
shortcuts for both of those are already in use, and in some ways very
confusingly. note the two very different definitions for a macro named
"ALIGNED":
drivers/net/sgiseeq.c:#define ALIGNED(x) ((((unsigned long)(x)) + 0xf) & ~(0xf))
drivers/scsi/ultrastor.c:#define ALIGNED(x) __attribute__((aligned(x)))
also:
include/acpi/platform/acgcc.h:
#define ACPI_PRINTF_LIKE(c) __attribute__ ((__format__ (__printf__, c, c+1)))
Given the precedent, then, it seems logical to at least standardize on a
consistent set of these macros.

Fix insecure default behaviour reported by Tigran Aivazian: if an ext2 or
ext3 or ext4 filesystem is tuned to mount with "acl", but mounted by a
kernel built without ACL support, then umask was ignored when creating
inodes - though root or user has umask 022, touch creates files as 0666,
and mkdir creates directories as 0777.
This appears to have worked right until 2.6.11, when a fix to the default
mode on symlinks (always 0777) assumed VFS applies umask: which it does,
unless the mount is marked for ACLs; but ext[234] set MS_POSIXACL in
s_flags according to s_mount_opt set according to def_mount_opts.
We could revert to the 2.6.10 ext[234]_init_acl (adding an S_ISLNK test);
but other filesystems only set MS_POSIXACL when ACLs are configured. We
could fix this at another level; but it seems most robust to avoid setting
the s_mount_opt flag in the first place (at the expense of more ifdefs).
Likewise don't set the XATTR_USER flag when built without XATTR support.

The patch to identify AIX disks and ignore them has caused at least one
machine to fail to find the root partition on 2.6.19. The patch is:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/7/31/117
The problem is some disk formatters do not blow away the first 4 bytes
of the disk. If the disk we are installing to used to have AIX on it,
then the first 4 bytes will still have IBMA in EBCDIC.
The install in question was debian etch. Im not sure what the best fix
is, perhaps the AIX detection code could check more than the first 4
bytes.
The whole partition info for primary partitions is in this block:
dd if=/dev/sdb count=$(( 4 * 16 )) bs=1 skip=$(( 0x1be ))
All other data do not matter, beside the 0x55aa marker at the end of the

__unmap_hugepage_range() is buggy that it does not preserve dirty state of
huge_pte when unmapping hugepage range. It causes data corruption in the
event of dop_caches being used by sys admin. For example, an application
creates a hugetlb file, modify pages, then unmap it. While leaving the
hugetlb file alive, comes along sys admin doing a "echo 3 >
/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches".
drop_pagecache_sb() will happily free all pages that aren't marked dirty if
there are no active mapping. Later when application remaps the hugetlb
file back and all data are gone, triggering catastrophic flip over on
application.
Not only that, the internal resv_huge_pages count will also get all messed
up. Fix it up by marking page dirty appropriately.

Attributes in configfs are text files. As such, most handlers expect to be
able to call functions like simple_strtoul() without checking the bounds
of the buffer. Change the call to zero terminate the buffer before calling
the client's ->store() method. This does reduce the attribute size from
PAGE_SIZE to PAGE_SIZE-1.
Also, change get_zeroed_page() to alloc_page(), as we are handling the
termination.

As was already pointed out Mathieu Avila on Thu, 07 Sep 2006 03:15:25 -0700
that OCFS2 is expecting bio_add_page() to add pages to BIOs in an easily
predictable manner.
That is not true, especially for devices with own merge_bvec_fn().
Therefore OCFS2's heartbeat code is very likely to fail on such devices.
Move the bio_put() call into the bio's bi_end_io() function. This makes the
whole idea of trying to predict the behaviour of bio_add_page() unnecessary.

When there is a lot of multithreaded I/O usage, two threads can collide
while sending out a message to the other nodes. This is due to the lack of
locking between threads while sending out the messages.
When a connected TCP send(), sendto(), or sendmsg() arrives in the Linux
kernel, it eventually comes through tcp_sendmsg(). tcp_sendmsg() protects
itself by acquiring a lock at invocation by calling lock_sock().
tcp_sendmsg() then loops over the buffers in the iovec, allocating
associated sk_buff's and cache pages for use in the actual send. As it does
so, it pushes the data out to tcp for actual transmission. However, if one
of those allocation fails (because a large number of large sends is being
processed, for example), it must wait for memory to become available. It
does so by jumping to wait_for_sndbuf or wait_for_memory, both of which
eventually cause a call to sk_stream_wait_memory(). sk_stream_wait_memory()
contains a code path that calls sk_wait_event(). Finally, sk_wait_event()
contains the call to release_sock().
The following patch adds a lock to the socket container in order to
properly serialize outbound requests.

The problem. When implementing a network namespace I need to be able
to have multiple network devices with the same name. Currently this
is a problem for /sys/class/net/*.
What I want is a separate /sys/class/net directory in sysfs for each
network namespace, and I want to name each of them /sys/class/net.
I looked and the VFS actually allows that. All that is needed is
for /sys/class/net to implement a follow link method to redirect
lookups to the real directory you want.
Implementing a follow link method that is sensitive to the current
network namespace turns out to be 3 lines of code so it looks like a
clean approach. Modifying sysfs so it doesn't get in my was is a bit
trickier.
I am calling the concept of multiple directories all at the same path
in the filesystem shadow directories. With the directory entry really
at that location the shadow master.
The following patch modifies sysfs so it can handle a directory
structure slightly different from the kobject tree so I can implement
