NFS: nfs_lookup doesn't need to revalidate the parent directory's inode
nfs_lookup() used to consult a lookup cache before trying an actual wire
lookup operation. The lookup cache would be invalid, of course, if the
parent directory's mtime had changed, so nfs_lookup performed an inode
revalidation on the parent.
Since nfs_lookup() doesn't use a cache anymore, the revalidation is no
longer necessary. There are cases where it will generate a lot of
unnecessary GETATTR traffic.
See http://bugzilla.linux-nfs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9

Use lndir and "rm -rf" and watch for excess GETATTR traffic or application
level errors.

fsck_hfs reveals lots of temporary files accumulating in the hidden

there may be a bug in the Linux hfsplus implementation which causes this to

We are probaly deleting the timer from run_posix_cpu_timers's 'firing'

Various bad things can happen, for example we can just delete this timer
so that list_for_each() will not notice it and run_posix_cpu_timers()
will not reset '->firing' flag. In that case,
....
if (timer->it.cpu.firing) {
read_unlock(&tasklist_lock);

IDR trees include a cache of idr_layer objects. There's no way to destroy
this cache, so when we discard an overall idr tree we end up leaking some
memory.
Add and use idr_destroy() for this. v9fs and infiniband also need to use
idr_destroy() to avoid leaks.
Or, we make the cache global, like radix_tree_preload(). Which is probably
better. Later.

[NEIGH] Fix timer leak in neigh_changeaddr
neigh_changeaddr attempts to delete neighbour timers without setting

when we acquire the write lock in neigh_changeaddr. The result is that
the timer may keep firing for quite a while until the entry reaches

It should be setting the nud_state straight away so that if the timer

In fact, this whole function is simply duplicating the logic in
neigh_ifdown which in turn is already doing the right thing when
it comes to deleting timers and setting nud_state.

AMD recently discovered that on some hardware, there is a race condition
possible when a C-state change request goes onto the bus at the same
time as a P-state change request.
Both requests happen, but the southbridge hardware only acknowledges the
C-state change. The PowerNow! driver is then stuck in a loop, waiting
for the P-state change acknowledgement. The driver eventually times
out, but can no longer perform P-state changes.
It turns out the solution is to resend the P-state change, which the
southbridge will acknowledge normally.

[PATCH] ppc64: Fix pages marked dirty abusively
While working on 64K pages, I found this little buglet in our
update_mmu_cache() implementation.
The code calls __hash_page() passing it an "access" parameter (the type
of access that triggers the hash) containing the bits _PAGE_RW and
_PAGE_USER of the linux PTE. The latter is useless in this case and the
former is wrong. In fact, if we have a writeable PTE and we pass
_PAGE_RW to hash_page(), it will set _PAGE_DIRTY (since we track dirty
that way, by hash faulting !dirty) which is not what we want.
In fact, the correct fix is to always pass 0. That means that only
read-only or already dirty read write PTEs will be preloaded. The
(hopefully rare) case of a non dirty read write PTE can't be preloaded
this way, it will have to fault in hash_page on the actual access.

[PATCH] fix MGA DRM regression before 2.6.14
I've gotten a report on lkml, of a possible regression in the MGA DRM in
2.6.14-rc4 (since -rc1), I haven't been able to reproduce it here, but I've
figured out some possible issues in the mga code that were definitely
wrong, some of these are from DRM CVS, the main fix is the agp enable bit
on the old code path still used by everyone.....

[PATCH] Threads shouldn't inherit PF_NOFREEZE
The PF_NOFREEZE process flag should not be inherited when a thread is
forked. This patch (as585) removes the flag from the child.
This problem is starting to show up more and more as drivers turn to the
kthread API instead of using kernel_thread(). As a result, their kernel
threads are now children of the kthread worker instead of modprobe, and
they inherit the PF_NOFREEZE flag. This can cause problems during system
suspend; the kernel threads are not getting frozen as they ought to be.

[PATCH] Export RCS_TAR_IGNORE for rpm targets
The variable RCS_TAR_IGNORE is used in scripts/packaging/Makefile, but not
exported from the main Makefile, so it's never used.
This results in the rpm targets being very unhappy in quilted trees.

[PATCH] ppc64: Fix error in vDSO 32 bits date
The implementation of __kernel_gettimeofday() in the 32 bits vDSO has a
small bug (a typo actually) that will cause it to lose 1 bit of precision.
Not terribly bad but worth fixing.

[PATCH] Three one-liners in md.c
The main problem fixes is that in certain situations stopping md arrays may
take longer than you expect, or may require multiple attempts. This would
only happen when resync/recovery is happening.
This patch fixes three vaguely related bugs.
1/ The recent change to use kthreads got the setting of the
process name wrong. This fixes it.
2/ The recent change to use kthreads lost the ability for
md threads to be signalled with SIG_KILL. This restores that.
3/ There is a long standing bug in that if:
- An array needs recovery (onto a hot-spare) and
- The recovery is being blocked because some other array being
recovered shares a physical device and
- The recovery thread is killed with SIG_KILL
Then the recovery will appear to have completed with no IO being
done, which can cause data corruption.
This patch makes sure that incomplete recovery will be treated as
incomplete.
Note that any kernel affected by bug 2 will not suffer the problem of bug
3, as the signal can never be delivered. Thus the current 2.6.14-rc
kernels are not susceptible to data corruption. Note also that if arrays
are shutdown (with "mdadm -S" or "raidstop") then the problem doesn't
occur. It only happens if a SIGKILL is independently delivered as done by
'init' when shutting down.
