module: initialize module dynamic debug later

2010-07-05T03:17:22Z

We should initialize the module dynamic debug datastructures only after determining that the module is not loaded yet. This fixes a bug that introduced in 2.6.35-rc2, where when a trying to load a module twice, we also load it's dynamic printing data twice which causes all sorts of nasty issues. Also handle the dynamic debug cleanup later on failure. Signed-off-by: Yehuda Sadeh Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell (removed a #ifdef) Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

sched: Cure nr_iowait_cpu() users

2010-07-01T07:39:48Z

Commit 0224cf4c5e (sched: Intoduce get_cpu_iowait_time_us()) broke things by not making sure preemption was indeed disabled by the callers of nr_iowait_cpu() which took the iowait value of the current cpu. This resulted in a heap of preempt warnings. Cure this by making nr_iowait_cpu() take a cpu number and fix up the callers to pass in the right number.

futex: futex_find_get_task remove credentails check

2010-06-30T22:43:44Z

futex_find_get_task is currently used (through lookup_pi_state) from two contexts, futex_requeue and futex_lock_pi_atomic. None of the paths looks it needs the credentials check, though. Different (e)uids shouldn't matter at all because the only thing that is important for shared futex is the accessibility of the shared memory. The credentail check results in glibc assert failure or process hang (if glibc is compiled without assert support) for shared robust pthread mutex with priority inheritance if a process tries to lock already held lock owned by a process with a different euid: pthread_mutex_lock.c:312: __pthread_mutex_lock_full: Assertion `(-(e)) != 3 || !robust' failed. The problem is that futex_lock_pi_atomic which is called when we try to lock already held lock checks the current holder (tid is stored in the futex value) to get the PI state. It uses lookup_pi_state which in turn gets task struct from futex_find_get_task. ESRCH is returned either when the task is not found or if credentials check fails. futex_lock_pi_atomic simply returns if it gets ESRCH. glibc code, however, doesn't expect that robust lock returns with ESRCH because it should get either success or owner died.

kexec: fix Oops in crash_shrink_memory()

2010-06-29T22:29:31Z

When crashkernel is not enabled, "echo 0 > /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size" OOPSes the kernel in crash_shrink_memory. This happens when crash_shrink_memory tries to release the 'crashk_res' resource which are not reserved. Also value of "/sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size" shows as 1, which should be 0. This patch fixes the OOPS in crash_shrink_memory and shows "/sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size" as 0 when crash kernel memory is not reserved.
