Linus Torvalds a362f463a6 Revert "remove false BUG_ON() from run_posix_cpu_timers()"
This reverts commit 3de463c7d9.

Roland has another patch that allows us to leave the BUG_ON() in place
by just making sure that the condition it tests for really is always
true.

That goes in next.

Oleg Nesterov 7a4ed937aa [PATCH] Fix cpu timers expiration time
There's a silly off-by-one error in the code that updates the expiration
of posix CPU timers, causing them to not be properly updated when they
hit exactly on their expiration time (which should be the normal case).

This causes them to then fire immediately again, and only _then_ get
properly updated.

Peter Wainwright 94c1d31845 [PATCH] Fix HFS+ to free up the space when a file is deleted.
fsck_hfs reveals lots of temporary files accumulating in the hidden
directory "\000\000\000HFS+ Private Data".  According to the HFS+
documentation these are files which are unlinked while in use.  However,
there may be a bug in the Linux hfsplus implementation which causes this to
happen even when the files are not in use.  It looks like the "opencnt"
field is never initialized as (I think) it should be in hfsplus_read_inode.
 This means that a file can appear to be still in use when in fact it has
been closed.  This patch seems to fix it for me.

Jeff Garzik 35848e048f [PATCH] kill massive wireless-related log spam
Although this message is having the intended effect of causing wireless
driver maintainers to upgrade their code, I never should have merged this
patch in its present form.  Leading to tons of bug reports and unhappy
users.

Some wireless apps poll for statistics regularly, which leads to a printk()
every single time they ask for stats.  That's a little bit _too_ much of a
reminder that the driver is using an old API.

Change this to printing out the message once, per kernel boot.

The mpic interrupt controller driver (used on G5 and early pSeries among

whatever has been mapped just next to it (ouch !) when initializing and

Ian Campbell 7edc24c4d1 [ARM] 3032/1: sparse: complains about generic_fls() prototype in asm-arm/bitops.h
Patch from Ian Campbell

Sparse complains about the definition of generic_fls in asm-arm/bitops.h:
  CHECK   /home/icampbell/devel/kernel/2.6/arch/arm/mach-pxa/viper.c
include2/asm/bitops.h:350:34: error: marked inline, but without a definition

The definition is unnecessary since linux/bitops.h defines generic_fls before including asm/bitops.h and asm/bitops.h should not be included directly. There are still some places where asm/bitops.h is directly included, but I think that code should be fixed. I was a little wary of the patch for this reason but lubbock, mainstone and assabet all build OK and so do my in house boards...

ARM is the only arch with the generic_fls prototype in this way.

Herbert Xu 1371e37da2 [IPV4]: Kill redundant rcu_dereference on fa_info
This patch kills a redundant rcu_dereference on fa->fa_info in fib_trie.c.
As this dereference directly follows a list_for_each_entry_rcu line, we
have already taken a read barrier with respect to getting an entry from
the list.

This read barrier guarantees that all values read out of fa are valid.
In particular, the contents of structure pointed to by fa->fa_info is
initialised before fa->fa_info is actually set (see fn_trie_insert);
the setting of fa->fa_info itself is further separated with a write
barrier from the insertion of fa into the list.

Therefore by taking a read barrier after obtaining fa from the list
(which is given by list_for_each_entry_rcu), we can be sure that
fa->fa_info contains a valid pointer, as well as the fact that the
data pointed to by fa->fa_info is itself valid.

general for_each_cpu() or for_each_online_cpu() constructs, as
appropriate.  This widens the scope of potential future optimizations
of the general constructs, as well as takes advantage of the existing
optimizations of first_cpu() and next_cpu(), which is advantageous
when the true CPU count is much smaller than NR_CPUS.

yet, qla2x00_free_device() tries to stop a kernel thread which hasn't started
yet.  It does wait_for_completion() against an uninitialised completion struct
and the kernel hangs up.

Fix it by initialising ha->dpc_pid a bit earlier.

Oleg Nesterov a69ac4a78d [PATCH] posix-timers: fix posix_cpu_timer_set() vs run_posix_cpu_timers() race
This might be harmless, but looks like a race from code inspection (I
was unable to trigger it).  I must admit, I don't understand why we
can't return TIMER_RETRY after 'spin_unlock(&p->sighand->siglock)'
without doing bump_cpu_timer(), but this is what original code does.

posix_cpu_timer_set:

	read_lock(&tasklist_lock);

	spin_lock(&p->sighand->siglock);
	list_del_init(&timer->it.cpu.entry);
	spin_unlock(&p->sighand->siglock);

We are probaly deleting the timer from run_posix_cpu_timers's 'firing'
local list_head while run_posix_cpu_timers() does list_for_each_safe.

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);
		timer->it.cpu.firing = -1;

sys_timer_settime() goes to 'retry:', calls posix_cpu_timer_set() again,
it returns TIMER_RETRY ...

Oleg Nesterov 3de463c7d9 [PATCH] posix-timers: remove false BUG_ON() from run_posix_cpu_timers()
do_exit() clears ->it_##clock##_expires, but nothing prevents
another cpu to attach the timer to exiting process after that.

After exit_notify() does 'write_unlock_irq(&tasklist_lock)' and
before do_exit() calls 'schedule() local timer interrupt can find
tsk->exit_state != 0. If that state was EXIT_DEAD (or another cpu
does sys_wait4) interrupted task has ->signal == NULL.

At this moment exiting task has no pending cpu timers, they were cleaned
up in __exit_signal()->posix_cpu_timers_exit{,_group}(), so we can just
return from irq.
