If userspace supplies an invalid pointer to a read() of an inotify instance, the inotify device's event list mutex is unlocked twice. This causes an unbalance which effectively leaves the data structure unprotected, and we can trigger oopses by accessing the inotify instance from different tasks concurrently. The best fix (contributed largely by Linus) is a total rewrite of the function in question: On Thu, Jan 22, 2009 at 7:05 AM, Linus Torvalds wrote: > The thing to notice is that: > > - locking is done in just one place, and there is no question about it > not having an unlock. > > - that whole double-while(1)-loop thing is gone. > > - use multiple functions to make nesting and error handling sane > > - do error testing after doing the things you always need to do, ie do > this: > > mutex_lock(..) > ret = function_call(); > mutex_unlock(..) > > .. test ret here .. > > instead of doing conditional exits with unlocking or freeing. > > So if the code is written in this way, it may still be buggy, but at least > it's not buggy because of subtle "forgot to unlock" or "forgot to free" > issues. > > This _always_ unlocks if it locked, and it always frees if it got a > non-error kevent.

Move fuse_copy_finish() to before calling fuse_notify_poll_wakeup(). This is not a big issue because fuse_notify_poll_wakeup() should be atomic, but it's cleaner this way, and later uses of notification will need to be able to finish the copying before performing some actions. Signed-off-by:

If a fuse filesystem is unmounted but the device file descriptor remains open and a new mount reuses the old device number, then the mount fails with EEXIST and the following warning is printed in the kernel log: WARNING: at fs/sysfs/dir.c:462 sysfs_add_one+0x35/0x3d() sysfs: duplicate filename '0:15' can not be created The cause is that the bdi belonging to the fuse filesystem was destoryed only after the device file was released.

Impact: fix boot hang on pre-model-15 Intel CPUs rdmsrl_safe() does not work in very early bootup code yet, because we dont have the pagefault handler installed yet so exception section does not get parsed. rdmsr_safe() will just crash and hang the bootup. So limit the MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE MSR read to those CPU types that support it. Signed-off-by:

In the absence of PAT, PAGE_KERNEL_WC ends up mapping to a memory type that gets UC behavior even in the presence of a WC MTRR covering the area in question. By swapping to PAGE_KERNEL_UC_MINUS, we can get the actual behavior the caller wanted (WC if you can manage it, UC otherwise). This recovers the 40% performance improvement of using WC in the DRM to upload vertex data. Signed-off-by:

the RDC and ELAN platforms use slighly different PIT clocks, resulting in a timex.h hack that changes PIT_TICK_RATE during build time. But if a tester enables any of these platform support .config options, the PIT will be miscalibrated on standard PC platforms. So use one frequency - in a subsequent patch we'll add a quirk to allow x86 platforms to define different PIT frequencies. Signed-off-by:

This is due to pgtable_page_ctor() doing the spin_lock_init(&page->ptl) which is overlaid with the {private, mapping} struct. union { struct { unsigned long private; struct address_space *mapping; }; spinlock_t ptl; struct kmem_cache *slab; struct page *first_page; }; Normally the spinlock is small enough to not stomp on page->mapping, but PREEMPT_RT=y has huge 'spin'locks. But lockdep kernels should also be able to trigger this splat, as the lock tracking code grows the spinlock to cover page->mapping. The obvious fix is calling pgtable_page_dtor() like the regular pte free path __pte_free_tlb() does. It seems all architectures except x86 and nm10300 already do this, and nm10300 doesn't seem to use pgtable_page_ctor(), which suggests it doesn't do SMP or simply doesnt do MMU at all or something.
