[PATCH] Fix missing ret assignment in __bio_map_user() error path

2006-06-17T17:52:12+00:00

If get_user_pages() returns less pages than what we asked for, we jump
to out_unmap which will return ERR_PTR(ret).  But ret can contain a
positive number just smaller than local_nr_pages, so be sure to set it
to -EFAULT always.

[PATCH] Return error in case flock_lock_file failure

2006-06-14T15:59:44+00:00

If flock_lock_file() failed to allocate flock with locks_alloc_lock()
then "error = 0" is returned. Need to return some non-zero.

[PATCH] debugfs inode leak

2006-06-08T22:14:24+00:00

Looking at the reiser4 crash, I found a leak in debugfs. In
debugfs_mknod(), we create the inode before checking if the dentry
already has one attached. We don't free it if that is the case.

These bugs happen quite often, I'm starting to think we should disallow
such coding in CodingStyle.

[PATCH] fs/namei.c: Call to file_permission() under a spinlock in do_lookup_path()

2006-06-05T19:29:16+00:00

From: Trond Myklebust 

We're presently running lock_kernel() under fs_lock via nfs's ->permission
handler.  That's a ranking bug and sometimes a sleep-in-spinlock bug.  This
problem was introduced in the openat() patchset.

We should not need to hold the current->fs->lock for a codepath that doesn't
use current->fs.

[CIFS] ACPI suspend oops

2006-05-30T18:05:10+00:00

Wasn't able to reproduce a hard hang, but was able to get an oops if
suspended the machine during a copy to the cifs mount.  This led to some
things hanging, including a "sync".  Also got I/O errors when trying to
access the mount afterwards (even when didn't see the oops), and had
to unmount and remount in order to access the filesystem.

This patch fixed the oops.
