This gets rid of some list corruption issues ("bad entry") by getting rid of a fast-path carried over from 2.4 usb-ohci. * In case of unlink-during-submit, we must giveback() right away. This is a reasonably rare case. There have been recent reports of problems here. The "bad entry" showed up with usbtest tests #11 and #12, or "stir4200", and maybe in other cases. The unlink-during-submit shows up in usbtest.

The fix I propose is not completely clean. With P4 HT we split msr in two subset, one for each logical processor. The msrs subset used in op_model_p4.c at save and setup point of view are distinct (*), it means we must serialize setup and save operation else a logical processor can save some msr value already setup by the other thread then when oprofile shutdown we restore wrong msrs values. Nobody noticed the problem because after restoring the msrs we call enable_lapic_nmi_watchdog() -> setup_p4_watchdog() wich clear all the msrs but it's a bit fragile. If nmi watchdog is not enabled nothing bad occurs because the LVTPC remains disabled. (*) this is done in this way because it allows a lot of simplification in op_model_p4.c, yes it isn't clean but it's not fixable w/o rewriting 75% of op_model_p4.c and I think the code will be bigger and more complex.

It turns out that on some architectures (eg, ia64) a kernel thread inherits its parent's stack utilisation. So after the thread-launches-a-thread cycle has progressed sufficiently far we run out of stack space and crash. Simple fix: convert pdflush to use kthreads.

The 32bit emulation used 4GB/3 for the mmap break. This actually gave programs less sbrk space than with a standard 32bit kernel. Move the 32bit mmap break to 0xc5000000. Uses the correct gcc option to optimize for Prescott now (requires a very new mainline gcc) Also merge the i386 sched_clock().

ChangeSet@1.1619.7.1, 2004-03-01 23:00:02-08:00, akpm@osdl.org [PATCH] fix umount dataloss problem address_spaces have a `dirtied_when' jiffies field which records the time at which the mapping was first dirtied. This is used for the periodic writeback (kupdate) function. It is also used to prevent livelocks in the writeback code: don't try to write back objects which were dirtied after sync_sb_inodes() was called. It used to be the case that dirtied_when == 0 had magical properties, so there is code in there which avoids accidentally setting dirtied_when to zero at jiffy wrap time. We just set it to jiffies|1. Unfortunately, jiffies|1 is in the future. So under some rare timing circumstances (inode dirtied within one jiffy of umount) the livelock avoidance code in sync_sb_inodes() can accidentally trigger and we fail to write an inode out, resulting in filesytem corruption on ext2-style filesystems. Normally, nobody dirties a file within a millisecond of umount, so it was not noticed. It is no longer the case that (address_space.dirtied_when == 0) has special meaning, so we can just remove all that code and fix the bug.

This really needs to be send upstream, though I don't know where we got to with this one. Maybe we should put it in akpm's tree for a while? It's essentially more of the "don't deadlock if you pull out a PCMCIA network card and it's currently configured up" patch which went in recently for PCMCIA NIC cards.

The real bug was of course that the get_user/put_user for data_direction were transposed. This patch also fixes the translation of "quiet" and "timeout" to be safer and clearer (instead of memcpying them as two ints and knowing that "quiet" is first and assuming that "compat_int_t" is always the same as the native "int", the code now handles them explicitly). We should use "access_ok()" and __get_user/__put_user to generate better code for this, but it's not performance-critical, so we don't care. Some other day, perhaps.

When vlan-tagged fragmented IP traffic passes the bridging firewall and ip_conntrack is loaded and iptables sees this IP traffic, an oops can occur when trying to fragment the defragmented packets. This only happens in the slow_path of ip_fragment(). The problem was reported, diagnosed and fixed by Adam Osuchowski and Tomasz Dubinski. When ip_fragment() is fragmenting an IP packet that's encapsulated, it has to make sure there is enough head room for the encapsulating header. The patch below fixes it. I saw no other way than to add some code to ip_fragment(), but this extra code is located in the slow_path so it's hardly ever executed.

The problem was that IDE-disks on machines with IDE harddisks, memory above 4GB and no hardware I/O TLB would go BUG_ON() in blk_queue_bounce_limit() because the IDE-controller could only address 4GB of memory and that was much less than BLK_BOUNCE_ISA (which is equal to ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD). Note that the problem does NOT trigger with CD-ROMs, which always uses the software I/O TLB (and hence bounce-buffers) on such machines. The best fix seems to be to simply lower ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD to 4GB-1 since that will ensure that the IDE block layer allocates memory with GFP_DMA, which will minimize bounce buffering.
