Fix the regression created by "set S_DEAD on unlink()..." commit

2010-05-15T11:16:33+00:00

1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention;
we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously
shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on.  To fix it
right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting
upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and
i_mutex on the inode in question.  Set it (with dont_mount(dentry))
in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places
in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD.  Setting S_DEAD
is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories
getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race
prevention.

2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash
the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint.  Fixed.

3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the
right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong)
one.  Noticed and fixed.

USB: rename usb_buffer_alloc() and usb_buffer_free()

2010-04-30T16:25:12+00:00

For more clearance what the functions actually do,

  usb_buffer_alloc() is renamed to usb_alloc_coherent()
  usb_buffer_free()  is renamed to usb_free_coherent()

They should only be used in code which really needs DMA coherency.

USB: fix build on OMAPs if CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME is not set

2010-04-30T16:25:11+00:00

With patch as1329 (USB: convert to the runtime PM framework),
we make USB_SUSPEND depend on PM_RUNTIME instead of CONFIG_PM.

Also, CONFIG_USB_OTG selects CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND.

If PM_RUNTIME is not enabled, and we try to enable USB_OTG,
we will end up with CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND selected. This is
due to a known bug with the select statement.

This makes the build break on various OMAP configs (which
have CONFIG_USB_OTG set by default, but do not yet have
CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME enabled).

Avoid this by changing the logic for CONFIG_USB_OTG from
"select USB_SUSPEND" to "depends on USB_SUSPEND"

USB: don't choose configs with no interfaces

2010-04-30T16:25:10+00:00

This patch (as1372) fixes a bug in the routine that chooses the
default configuration to install when a new USB device is detected.
The algorithm is supposed to look for a config whose first interface
is for a non-vendor-specific class.  But the way it's currently
written, it will also accept a config with no interfaces at all, which
is not very useful.  (Believe it or not, such things do exist.)

USB: fix testing the wrong variable in fs_create_by_name()

2010-04-30T16:25:09+00:00

There is a typo here.  We should be testing "*dentry" which was just
assigned instead of "dentry".  This could result in dereferencing an
ERR_PTR inside either usbfs_mkdir() or usbfs_create().

USB: put claimed interfaces in the "suspended" state

2010-04-22T22:18:28+00:00

This patch (as1370) fixes a bug in the USB runtime power management
code.  When a driver claims an interface, it doesn't expect to need to
call usb_autopm_get_interface() or usb_autopm_put_interface() for
runtime PM to work.  Runtime PM can be controlled by the driver's
primary interface; the additional interfaces it claims shouldn't
interfere.  As things stand, the claimed interfaces will prevent the
device from autosuspending.

To fix this problem, the patch sets interfaces to the suspended state
when they are claimed.

Also, although in theory this shouldn't matter, the patch changes the
suspend code so that interfaces are suspended in reverse order from
detection and resuming.  This is how the PM core works, and we ought
to use the same approach.

USB: fix remote wakeup settings during system sleep

2010-04-22T22:18:27+00:00

This patch (as1363) changes the way USB remote wakeup is handled
during system sleeps.  It won't be enabled unless an interface driver
specifically needs it.  Also, it won't be enabled during the FREEZE or
QUIESCE phases of hibernation, when the system doesn't respond to
wakeup events anyway.  Finally, if the device is already
runtime-suspended with remote wakeup enabled, but wakeup is supposed
to be disabled for the system sleep, the device gets woken up so that
it can be suspended again with the proper wakeup setting.

This will fix problems people have reported with certain USB webcams
that generate wakeup requests when they shouldn't, and as a result
cause system suspends to fail.  See

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

2010-03-30T13:02:32+00:00

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

USB: Fix usb_fill_int_urb for SuperSpeed devices

2010-03-19T14:24:23+00:00

USB 3 and Wireless USB specify a logarithmic encoding of the endpoint
interval that matches the USB 2 specification.  usb_fill_int_urb() didn't
know that and was filling in the interval as if it was USB 1.1.  Fix
usb_fill_int_urb() for SuperSpeed devices, but leave the wireless case
alone, because David Vrabel wants to keep the old encoding.

Update the struct urb kernel doc to note that SuperSpeed URBs must have
urb->interval specified in microframes.

Add a missing break statement in the usb_submit_urb() interrupt URB
checking, since wireless USB and SuperSpeed USB encode urb->interval
differently.  This allows xHCI roothubs to actually register with khubd.

This patch (as1352) fixes a bug in the way isochronous input data is
returned to userspace for usbfs transfers.  The entire buffer must be
copied, not just the first actual_length bytes, because the individual
packets will be discontiguous if any of them are short.
