present.  ks0108_init() is called first, as it should be, but fails to load
(as there is no parallel port to use).

After that, cfag12864b_init() gets called, without knowing anything about
ks0108 failed, and calls ks0108_writecontrol(), which dereferences an
uninitialized pointer.

Eric W. Biederman [Tue, 20 Feb 2007 21:57:53 +0000 (13:57 -0800)]
[PATCH] shm: make sysv ipc shared memory use stacked files

The current ipc shared memory code runs into several problems because it
does not quite use files like the rest of the kernel.  With the option of
backing ipc shared memory with either hugetlbfs or ordinary shared memory
the problems got worse.  With the added support for ipc namespaces things
behaved so unexpected that we now have several bad namespace reference
counting bugs when using what appears at first glance to be a reasonable
idiom.

So to attack these problems and hopefully make the code more maintainable
this patch simply uses the files provided by other parts of the kernel and
builds it's own files out of them.  The shm files are allocated in do_shmat
and freed when their reference count drops to zero with their last unmap.
The file and vm operations that we don't want to implement or we don't
implement completely we just delegate to the operations of our backing
file.

This means that we now get an accurate shm_nattch count for we have a
hugetlbfs inode for backing store, and the shm accounting of last attach
and last detach time work as well.

This means that getting a reference to the ipc namespace when we create the
file and dropping the referenece in the release method is now safe and
correct.

This means we no longer need a special case for clearing VM_MAYWRITE
as our file descriptor now only has write permissions when we have
requested write access when calling shmat.  Although VM_SHARED is now
cleared as well which I believe is harmless and is mostly likely a
minor bug fix.

By using the same set of operations for both the hugetlb case and regular
shared memory case shmdt is not simplified and made slightly more correct
as now the test "vma->vm_ops == &shm_vm_ops" is 100% accurate in spotting
all shared memory regions generated from sysvipc shared memory.

[PATCH] slab: reduce size of alien cache to cover only possible nodes

The alien cache is a per cpu per node array allocated for every slab on the
system.  Currently we size this array for all nodes that the kernel does
support.  For IA64 this is 1024 nodes.  So we allocate an array with 1024
objects even if we only boot a system with 4 nodes.

This patch uses "nr_node_ids" to determine the number of possible nodes
supported by a hardware configuration and only allocates an alien cache
sized for possible nodes.

The initialization of nr_node_ids occurred too late relative to the bootstrap
of the slab allocator and so I moved the setup_nr_node_ids() into
free_area_init_nodes().

highest_possible_node_id() is currently used to calculate the last possible

I think having the ability to determine the maximum amount of nodes in a

This patch introduces nr_node_ids and replaces the use of
highest_possible_node_id().  nr_node_ids is calculated on bootup when the

[MIPS] Fixup copy_from_user_inatomic

From the 01408c4939479ec46c15aa7ef6e2406be50eeeca log message:

The problem is that when we write to a file, the copy from userspace to
pagecache is first done with preemption disabled, so if the source
address is not immediately available the copy fails *and* *zeros* *the*
*destination*.

This is a problem because a concurrent read (which admittedly is an odd
thing to do) might see zeros rather that was there before the write, or
what was there after, or some mixture of the two (any of these being a
reasonable thing to see).

If the copy did fail, it will immediately be retried with preemption
re-enabled so any transient problem with accessing the source won't
cause an error.

The first copying does not need to zero any uncopied bytes, and doing
so causes the problem.  It uses copy_from_user_atomic rather than
copy_from_user so the simple expedient is to change copy_from_user_atomic
to *not* zero out bytes on failure.

< --- end cite --- >

This patch finally implements at least a not so pretty solution by
duplicating the relevant part of __copy_user.
