diff-i2o-iosched-fix-20070806
Patch from Alexey Kuznetsov (alexey@):
It is I2O device, which siffers of the same problem, which I found with nbd.
The fact that this is troggered even with anticipatory scheduler says that this scheduler is broken as well, only race window is more narrow.
if (ad->changed_batch && ad->nr_dispatched == 1) {
kblockd_schedule_work(&ad->antic_work);
ad->changed_batch = 0;
if (ad->batch_data_dir == REQ_SYNC)
ad->new_batch = 1;
}I guess that it freezes when we hit this place with changed_batch==0.
diff-cpt-lock-fd-fix-20070822
Patch from Andrey Mirkin <major@openvz.org>
[PATCH] CPT: correct handling of lock fd error codes
Undump in CPT is performed in 2 stages (create env and init process; full undump). These 2 stages are separated with help of pipe: when this pipe is closed from vzctl we can proceed with second stage in CPT. So, possible scenario is following:
1. We are waiting in CPT in pipe_read() when pipe will be closed.
2. someone is sending signal to our task which is waiting in pipe_read().
3. pipe_read() exits with -ERESTARTSYS, but we ignore this error and continue with undump process, but vzctl do not perform all intermediate stages, so we can't proceed with undump.

diff-ms-proc-enoent-if-task-is-dead-20070824
Patch from Pavel Emelianov <xemul@openvz.org>
[PATCH proc: return ENOENT instead of EACCESS when task is dead
When reading the symlink /proc/<pid>/exe or /proc/<pid>/fd/<any> of a task, that has managed to die after opening the appropriate dir, but before reading the symlink, kernel returns -EACCESS due to strange code in proc_fd_access_allowed().
Unlike the ms/RHEL5 kernel, the SuSE kernel returns -ENOENT in this case and it turned out, that some SuSE software (inetd) is aware of it and cannot stand any deviations.
Make the kernel return -ENOENT when the task is dead to make VEs based on SuSE templates work. Keep the return value in any other case (-EACCESS).

diff-ms-sigqueue-race-20070828
Patch from Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>
[PATCH] sigqueue_free: fix the race with collect_signal()
Spotted by taoyue <yue.tao@windriver.com> and Jeremy Katz <jeremy.katz@windriver.com>.
collect_signal: sigqueue_free:
list_del_init(&first->list);
if (!list_empty(&q->list)) {
// not taken
}
q->flags &= ~SIGQUEUE_PREALLOC;
__sigqueue_free(first); __sigqueue_free(q);
Now, __sigqueue_free() is called twice on the same "struct sigqueue" with the obviously bad implications.
In particular, this double free breaks the array_cache->avail logic, so the same sigqueue could be "allocated" twice, and the bug can manifest itself via the "impossible" BUG_ON(!SIGQUEUE_PREALLOC) in sigqueue_free/send_sigqueue.
Hopefully this can explain these mysterious bug-reports, see

Also, this patch removes tasklist lock/unlock, ->siglock is enough.

[DLM] fix user unlocking
When a user process exits, we clear all the locks it holds. There is a
problem, though, with locks that the process had begun unlocking before it
exited. We couldn't find the lkb's that were in the process of being
unlocked remotely, to flag that they are DEAD. To solve this, we move
lkb's being unlocked onto a new list in the per-process structure that
tracks what locks the process is holding. We can then go through this
list to flag the necessary lkb's when clearing locks for a process when it
exits.

Patch from Andrey (amirkin@) ported from mainstream:
b790c3b7c38aae28c497bb363a6fe72f7c96568f
Author: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>

[DLM] can miss clearing resend flag
A long, complicated sequence of events, beginning with the RESEND flag not
being cleared on an lkb, can result in an unlock never completing.
- lkb on waiters list for remote lookup
- the remote node is both the dir node and the master node, so
it optimizes the lookup into a request and sends a request
reply back
- the request reply is saved on the requestqueue to be processed
after recovery
- recovery runs dlm_recover_waiters_pre() which sets RESEND flag
so the lookup will be resent after recovery
- end of recovery: process_requestqueue takes saved request reply
which removes the lkb off the waitesr list, _without_ clearing
the RESEND flag
- end of recovery: dlm_recover_waiters_post() doesn't do anything
with the now completed lookup lkb (would usually clear RESEND)
- later, the node unmounts, unlocks this lkb that still has RESEND
flag set
- the lkb is on the waiters list again, now for unlock, when recovery
occurs, dlm_recover_waiters_pre() shows the lkb for unlock with RESEND
set, doesn't do anything since the master still exists
- end of recovery: dlm_recover_waiters_post() takes this lkb off
the waiters list because it has the RESEND flag set, then reports
an error because unlocks are never supposed to be handled in
recover_waiters_post().
- later, the unlock reply is received, doesn't find the lkb on
the waiters list because recover_waiters_post() has wrongly
removed it.
- the unlock operation has been lost, and we're left with a
stray granted lock
- unmount spins waiting for the unlock to complete
The visible evidence of this problem will be a node where gfs umount is
spinning, the dlm waiters list will be empty, and the dlm locks list will
show a granted lock.
The fix is simply to clear the RESEND flag when taking an lkb off the
waiters list.

diff-dlm-overlapping-cancel-and-unlock-20070829
Patch from Andrey (amirkin@) ported from mainstream:
ef0c2bb05f40f9a0cd2deae63e199bfa62faa7fa
Author: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
Date: Wed Mar 28 09:56:46 2007 -0500
[DLM] overlapping cancel and unlock
Full cancel and force-unlock support. In the past, cancel and
force-unlock wouldn't work if there was another operation in progress on
the lock. Now, both cancel and unlock-force can overlap an operation on
a lock, meaning there may be 2 or 3 operations in progress on a lock in
parallel. This support is important not only because cancel and
force-unlock are explicit operations that an app can use, but both are
used implicitly when a process exits while holding locks.
Summary of changes:
- add-to and remove-from waiters functions were rewritten to handle
situations with more than one remote operation outstanding on a lock
- validate_unlock_args detects when an overlapping cancel/unlock-force
can be sent and when it needs to be delayed until a request/lookup
reply is received
- processing request/lookup replies detects when cancel/unlock-force
occured during the op, and carries out the delayed cancel/unlock-force
- manipulation of the "waiters" (remote operation) state of a lock moved
under the standard rsb mutex that protects all the other lock state
- the two recovery routines related to locks on the waiters list changed
according to the way lkb's are now locked before accessing waiters state
- waiters recovery detects when lkb's being recovered have overlapping
cancel/unlock-force, and may not recover such locks
- revert_lock (cancel) returns a value to distinguish cases where it did
nothing vs cases where it actually did a cancel; the cancel completion
ast should only be done when cancel did something
- orphaned locks put on new list so they can be found later for purging
- cancel must be called on a lock when making it an orphan
- flag user locks (ENDOFLIFE) at the end of their useful life (to the
application) so we can return an error for any further
cancel/unlock-force
- we weren't setting COMP/BAST ast flags if one was already set, so we'd
lose either a completion or blocking ast
- clear an unread bast on a lock that's become unlocked

[PATCH] cond_resched_lock() doesn't work in 2.6.18
When CONFIG_PREEMPT=n, cond_resched_lock() and cond_resched_softirq() don't work, since they check for preempt_count to be sane, but this counter is not tracked w/o preemption and is always 0.
So the fix is:
- ignore preempt count when CONFIG_PREEMPT=n
- plus if we want to check preempt_count in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y case (just to be on the safe side), we need to account lock_kernel() effect on preempt_count correctly.

Patch from Denis Lunev <den@openvz.org>
[PATCH] improve shrink_dcache_sb()
This patch makes shrink_dcache_sb consistent with dentry pruning policy.
On the first pass we iterate over dentry unused list and prepare some dentries for removal. However, since the existing code moves evicted dentries to the beginning of the LRU it can happen that fresh dentries from other superblocks will be inserted *before* our dentries.
This can result in significant slowdown of shrink_dcache_sb(). Moreover, for virtual filesystems like unionfs which can call dput() during dentries kill existing code results in O(n2) complexity.
We observed 2 minutes shrink_dcache_sb() with only 35000 dentries.
To avoid this effects we propose to isolate sb dentries at the end of LRU list.

Patch from Kirill Korotaev <dev@openvz.org>
[PATCH] fix for cond_resched() fix: remove wrong WARN_ON(1)
WARN_ON(1) is illegal, since when we return from cond_resched()->schedule() we have preempt_count = PREEMPT_ACTIVE, and if we have still current->need_resched flag set we can get to cond_resched() again from schedule()->reacquire_kernel_lock()->cond_resched() and thus this WARN_ON(1) gets triggered.
Bug #92140.

Patch from Kirill Korotaev <dev@openvz.org>
[PATCH] another cond_resched() fix
cond_resched() should check that it is not nexted via preempt_count() & PREEMPT_ACTIVE flag. Drop the whole super-logic from Den checking preempt count at al.
