* oom: dump stack and VM state when oom killer panicsDavid Rientjes2009-12-151-16/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The oom killer header, including information such as the allocation order and gfp mask, current's cpuset and memory controller, call trace, and VM state information is currently only shown when the oom killer has selected a task to kill. This information is omitted, however, when the oom killer panics either because of panic_on_oom sysctl settings or when no killable task was found. It is still relevant to know crucial pieces of information such as the allocation order and VM state when diagnosing such issues, especially at boot. This patch displays the oom killer header whenever it panics so that bug reports can include pertinent information to debug the issue, if possible.

* hfs: fix a potential buffer overflowAmerigo Wang2009-12-153-1/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A specially-crafted Hierarchical File System (HFS) filesystem could cause a buffer overflow to occur in a process's kernel stack during a memcpy() call within the hfs_bnode_read() function (at fs/hfs/bnode.c:24). The attacker can provide the source buffer and length, and the destination buffer is a local variable of a fixed length. This local variable (passed as "&entry" from fs/hfs/dir.c:112 and allocated on line 60) is stored in the stack frame of hfs_bnode_read()'s caller, which is hfs_readdir(). Because the hfs_readdir() function executes upon any attempt to read a directory on the filesystem, it gets called whenever a user attempts to inspect any filesystem contents.

| * | udf: Avoid IO in udf_clear_inodeJan Kara2009-12-143-22/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is not very good to do IO in udf_clear_inode. First, VFS does not really expect inode to become dirty there and thus we have to write it ourselves, second, memory reclaim gets blocked waiting for IO when it does not really expect it, third, the IO pattern (e.g. on umount) resulting from writes in udf_clear_inode is bad and it slows down writing a lot. The reason why UDF needed to do IO in udf_clear_inode is that UDF standard mandates extent length to exactly match inode size. But when we allocate extents to a file or directory, we don't really know what exactly the final file size will be and thus temporarily set it to block boundary and later truncate it to exact length in udf_clear_inode. Now, this is changed to truncate to final file size in udf_release_file for regular files. For directories and symlinks, we do the truncation at the moment when learn what the final file size will be. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
| * | udf: Try harder when looking for VAT inodeJan Kara2009-12-141-8/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some disks do not contain VAT inode in the last recorded block as required by the standard but a few blocks earlier (or the number of recorded blocks is wrong). So look for the VAT inode a bit before the end of the media. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

| * | x86: Limit the number of processor bootup messagesMike Travis2009-12-116-29/+47

It's estimated that with 4096 processors in a system, and the console baudrate set to 56K, the startup messages will take about 84 minutes to clear the serial port. This set of patches limits the number of repetitious messages which contain no additional information. Much of this information is obtainable from the /proc and /sysfs. Some of the messages are also sent to the kernel log buffer as KERN_DEBUG messages so dmesg can be used to examine more closely any details specific to a problem. The new cpu bootup sequence for system_state == SYSTEM_BOOTING: Booting Node 0, Processors #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 Ok. Booting Node 1, Processors #8 #9 #10 #11 #12 #13 #14 #15 Ok. ...

However, there are machines out there like some K8 multinode Opterons which have a non-contiguous core enumeration on each node (e.g. cores 0,2 on node 0 instead of 0,1), see http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1160268. This patch fixes out-of-bounds writes (see URL above) by adding per-CPU msr structs which are used on the respective cores. Additionally, two helpers, msrs_{alloc,free}, are provided for use by the callers of the MSR accessors. Cc: H.

It turns out the BIOS is using the first 64k for mptable, without reserving it. So try to find good range for the real-mode trampoline instead of hard coding it, in case some bios tries to use that range for sth.

| * | | x86, AMD: Fix stale cpuid4_info shared_map data in shared_cpu_map cpumasksPrarit Bhargava2009-12-101-6/+7

The stale data can lead to a NULL pointer derefernce panic on a remove of a CPU that has had siblings previously removed. This patch resolves the panic by verifying a cpu is actually online before adding it to the shared_cpu_map, only examining cpus that are part of the same lower level cache, and by updating other siblings lowest level cache maps when a cpu is added.
