1eb29128c6 [PATCH] Fix raid0's attempt to divide by 64bit numbers
Apparently sector_div is only guaranteed to work with a 32bit divisor, even
on 64bit architectures.  So allow for this in raid0.

20d0021394 [PATCH] uml: allow building as 32-bit binary on 64bit host
This patch makes the command:

make ARCH=um SUBARCH=i386

work on x86_64 hosts (with support for building 32-bit binaries).  This is
especially needed since 64-bit UMLs don't support 32-bit emulation for guest
binaries, currently.  This has been tested in all possible cases and works.

Only exception is that I've built but not tested a 64-bit binary, because I
hadn't a 64-bit filesystem available.

   into: .remap_data : { arch/um/sys-i386 /unmap_fin.o (.data .bss) }

(because I didn't use ## to join the two tokens), thus stopping linking.  Pass
the whole path from the Makefile as a simple and nice fix.

1feb8d2d73 [PATCH] uml: workaround host bug in "TT mode vs. NPTL link fix"
A big bug has been diagnosed on hosts running the SKAS patch and built with
CONFIG_REGPARM, due to some missing prevent_tail_call().

On these hosts, this workaround is needed to avoid triggering that bug,
because "to" is kept by GCC only in EBX, which is corrupted at the return of
mmap2().

Since to trigger this bug int 0x80 must be used when doing the call, it rarely
manifests itself, so I'd prefer to get this merged to workaround that host
bug, since it should cause no functional change.  Still, you might prefer to
drop it, I'll leave this to you.

bcb01b8a67 [PATCH] uml: fix lvalue for gcc4
Russell King <rmk+lkml@arm.linux.org.uk>

This construct is refused by GCC 4, so here's the (corrected) fix.  Thanks to
Russell for noticing a stupid mistake I did when first sending this.

As he noted, the code is largely suboptimal however it currently works, and
will be fixed shortly.  Just read the access_ok check on fp which is NULL, or
the pointer arithmetic below which should be done with a cast to void*:

 	frame = (struct rt_sigframe __user *)
 		round_down(stack_top - sizeof(struct rt_sigframe), 16) - 8;

The code shows clearly that has been taken from
arch/x86_64/kernel/signal.c:setup_rt_frame(), maybe in a bit of a hurry.

Add special case for the POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED and POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE hint
values for s390-64.  The user space values in the s390-64 glibc headers for
these two defines have always been 6 and 7 instead of 4 and 5.  All 64 bit
applications therefore use the "wrong" values.  To get these applications
working without recompiling the kernel needs to accept the "wrong" values.
Since the values for s390-31 are 4 and 5 the compat wrapper for fadvise64
and fadvise64_64 need to rewrite the values for 31 bit system calls.

88bd5121d6 [PATCH] Fix soft lockup due to NTFS: VFS part and explanation
Something has changed in the core kernel such that we now get concurrent
inode write outs, one e.g via pdflush and one via sys_sync or whatever.
This causes a nasty deadlock in ntfs.  The only clean solution
unfortunately requires a minor vfs api extension.

First the deadlock analysis:

Prerequisive knowledge: NTFS has a file $MFT (inode 0) loaded at mount
time.  The NTFS driver uses the page cache for storing the file contents as
usual.  More interestingly this file contains the table of on-disk inodes
as a sequence of MFT_RECORDs.  Thus NTFS driver accesses the on-disk inodes
by accessing the MFT_RECORDs in the page cache pages of the loaded inode
$MFT.

The situation: VFS inode X on a mounted ntfs volume is dirty.  For same
inode X, the ntfs_inode is dirty and thus corresponding on-disk inode,
which is as explained above in a dirty PAGE_CACHE_PAGE belonging to the
table of inodes ($MFT, inode 0).

What happens:

Process 1: sys_sync()/umount()/whatever...  calls __sync_single_inode() for
$MFT -> do_writepages() -> write_page for the dirty page containing the
on-disk inode X, the page is now locked -> ntfs_write_mst_block() which
clears PageUptodate() on the page to prevent anyone else getting hold of it
whilst it does the write out (this is necessary as the on-disk inode needs
"fixups" applied before the write to disk which are removed again after the
write and PageUptodate is then set again).  It then analyses the page
looking for dirty on-disk inodes and when it finds one it calls
ntfs_may_write_mft_record() to see if it is safe to write this on-disk
inode.  This then calls ilookup5() to check if the corresponding VFS inode
is in icache().  This in turn calls ifind() which waits on the inode lock
via wait_on_inode whilst holding the global inode_lock.

Process 2: pdflush results in a call to __sync_single_inode for the same
VFS inode X on the ntfs volume.  This locks the inode (I_LOCK) then calls
write-inode -> ntfs_write_inode -> map_mft_record() -> read_cache_page() of
the page (in page cache of table of inodes $MFT, inode 0) containing the
on-disk inode.  This page has PageUptodate() clear because of Process 1
(see above) so read_cache_page() blocks when tries to take the page lock
for the page so it can call ntfs_read_page().

Thus Process 1 is holding the page lock on the page containing the on-disk
inode X and it is waiting on the inode X to be unlocked in ifind() so it
can write the page out and then unlock the page.

And Process 2 is holding the inode lock on inode X and is waiting for the
page to be unlocked so it can call ntfs_readpage() or discover that
Process 1 set PageUptodate() again and use the page.

Thus we have a deadlock due to ifind() waiting on the inode lock.

The only sensible solution: NTFS does not care whether the VFS inode is
locked or not when it calls ilookup5() (it doesn't use the VFS inode at
all, it just uses it to find the corresponding ntfs_inode which is of
course attached to the VFS inode (both are one single struct); and it uses
the ntfs_inode which is subject to its own locking so I_LOCK is irrelevant)
hence we want a modified ilookup5_nowait() which is the same as ilookup5()
but it does not wait on the inode lock.

Without such functionality I would have to keep my own ntfs_inode cache in
the NTFS driver just so I can find ntfs_inodes independent of their VFS
inodes which would be slow, memory and cpu cycle wasting, and incredibly
stupid given the icache already exists in the VFS.

Below is a patch that does the ilookup5_nowait() implementation in
fs/inode.c and exports it.

ilookup5_nowait.diff:

Introduce ilookup5_nowait() which is basically the same as ilookup5() but
it does not wait on the inode's lock (i.e. it omits the wait_on_inode()
done in ifind()).

This is needed to avoid a nasty deadlock in NTFS.

0eeca28300 [PATCH] inotify
inotify is intended to correct the deficiencies of dnotify, particularly
its inability to scale and its terrible user interface:

        * dnotify requires the opening of one fd per each directory
          that you intend to watch. This quickly results in too many
          open files and pins removable media, preventing unmount.
        * dnotify is directory-based. You only learn about changes to
          directories. Sure, a change to a file in a directory affects
          the directory, but you are then forced to keep a cache of
          stat structures.
        * dnotify's interface to user-space is awful.  Signals?

inotify provides a more usable, simple, powerful solution to file change
notification:

        * inotify's interface is a system call that returns a fd, not SIGIO.
	  You get a single fd, which is select()-able.
        * inotify has an event that says "the filesystem that the item
          you were watching is on was unmounted."
        * inotify can watch directories or files.

Inotify is currently used by Beagle (a desktop search infrastructure),
Gamin (a FAM replacement), and other projects.

See Documentation/filesystems/inotify.txt.

bd4c625c06 reiserfs: run scripts/Lindent on reiserfs code
This was a pure indentation change, using:

	scripts/Lindent fs/reiserfs/*.c include/linux/reiserfs_*.h

to make reiserfs match the regular Linux indentation style.  As Jeff
Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> writes:

 The ReiserFS code is a mix of a number of different coding styles, sometimes
 different even from line-to-line. Since the code has been relatively stable
 for quite some time and there are few outstanding patches to be applied, it
 is time to reformat the code to conform to the Linux style standard outlined
 in Documentation/CodingStyle.

 This patch contains the result of running scripts/Lindent against
 fs/reiserfs/*.c and include/linux/reiserfs_*.h. There are places where the
 code can be made to look better, but I'd rather keep those patches separate
 so that there isn't a subtle by-hand hand accident in the middle of a huge
 patch. To be clear: This patch is reformatting *only*.

 A number of patches may follow that continue to make the code more consistent
 with the Linux coding style.

 Hans wasn't particularly enthusiastic about these patches, but said he
 wouldn't really oppose them either.

7fa94c8868 [PATCH] reiserfs: fix up case where indent misreads the code
indent(1) doesn't know how to handle the "do not compile" error. It results
 in the item_ops array declaration being indented a tab stop in when it should
 not be. This patch replaces it with a #error that describes why it's failing.

c3cd4f6b27 [PATCH] device-mapper multipath: Fix pg initialisation races
Prevent more than one priority group initialisation function from being
outstanding at once.  Otherwise the completion functions interfere with each
other.  Also, reloading the table could reference a freed pointer.

Only reset queue_io in pg_init_complete if another pg_init isn't required.
Skip process_queued_ios if the queue is empty so that we only trigger a
pg_init if there's I/O.

436d41087d [PATCH] device-mapper multipath: Avoid possible suspension deadlock
To avoid deadlock when suspending a multipath device after all its paths have
failed, stop queueing any I/O that is about to fail *before* calling
freeze_bdev instead of after.

Instead of setting a multipath 'suspended' flag which would have to be reset
if an error occurs during the process, save the previous queueing state and
leave userspace to restore if it wishes.
