Current\nimplementation supports only shmfs/tmpfs and other filesystems return\n-ENOSYS.\n\n\"Some app allocates large tmpfs files, then when some task quits and some\nclient disconnect, some memory can be released. However the only way to\nrelease tmpfs-swap is to MADV_REMOVE\". - Andrea Arcangeli\n\nDatabases want to use this feature to drop a section of their bufferpool\n(shared memory segments) - without writing back to disk/swap space.\n\nThis feature is also useful for supporting hot-plug memory on UML.\n\nConcerns raised by Andrew Morton:\n\n- \"We have no plan for holepunching! If we _do_ have such a plan (or\n might in the future) then what would the API look like? I think\n sys_holepunch(fd, start, len), so we should start out with that.\"\n\n- Using madvise is very weird, because people will ask \"why do I need to\n mmap my file before I can stick a hole in it?\"\n\n- None of the other madvise operations call into the filesystem in this\n manner. A broad question is: is this capability an MM operation or a\n filesytem operation? truncate, for example, is a filesystem operation\n which sometimes has MM side-effects. madvise is an mm operation and with\n this patch, it gains FS side-effects, only they\u0027re really, really\n significant ones.\"\n\nComments:\n\n- Andrea suggested the fs operation too but then it\u0027s more efficient to\n have it as a mm operation with fs side effects, because they don\u0027t\n immediatly know fd and physical offset of the range. It\u0027s possible to\n fixup in userland and to use the fs operation but it\u0027s more expensive,\n the vmas are already in the kernel and we can use them.\n\nShort term plan \u0026 Future Direction:\n\n- We seem to need this interface only for shmfs/tmpfs files in the short\n term. We have to add hooks into the filesystem for correctness and\n completeness. This is what this patch does.\n\n- In the future, plan is to support both fs and mmap apis also. This\n also involves (other) filesystem specific functions to be implemented.\n\n- Current patch doesn\u0027t support VM_NONLINEAR - which can be addressed in\n the future.\n\nSigned-off-by: Badari Pulavarty \u003cpbadari@us.ibm.com\u003e\nCc: Hugh Dickins \u003chugh@veritas.com\u003e\nCc: Andrea Arcangeli \u003candrea@suse.de\u003e\nCc: Michael Kerrisk \u003cmtk-manpages@gmx.net\u003e\nCc: Ulrich Drepper \u003cdrepper@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "d7339071f6a8b50101d7ba327926b770f22d5d8b", "tree": "051234ada89be22abb9ebbe4a541b16ade3bc2ff", "parents": [ "900b2b463dc6e65ec474d6880412c63c25b3aea9" ], "author": { "name": "Hans Reiser", "email": "reiser@namesys.com", "time": "Fri Jan 06 00:10:36 2006 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Fri Jan 06 08:33:22 2006 -0800" }, "message": "[PATCH] reiser4: vfs: add truncate_inode_pages_range()\n\nThis patch makes truncate_inode_pages_range from truncate_inode_pages.\ntruncate_inode_pages became a one-liner call to truncate_inode_pages_range.\n\nReiser4 needs truncate_inode_pages_ranges because it tries to keep\ncorrespondence between existences of metadata pointing to data pages and pages\nto which those metadata point to.

With his help, this was tracked down to bogus bio vectors\nwhich in turn was the result of a race condition between the\nreceive/transmit routines in the NBD driver.\n\nThe bug manifests itself like this:\n\nCPU0\t\t\t\tCPU1\ndo_nbd_request\n\tadd req to queuelist\n\tnbd_send_request\n\t\tsend req head\n\t\tfor each bio\n\t\t\tkmap\n\t\t\tsend\n\t\t\t\tnbd_read_stat\n\t\t\t\t\tnbd_find_request\n\t\t\t\t\tnbd_end_request\n\t\t\tkunmap\n\nWhen CPU1 finishes nbd_end_request, the request and all its associated\nbio\u0027s are freed. So when CPU0 calls kunmap whose argument is derived from\nthe last bio, it may crash.\n\nUnder normal circumstances, the race occurs only on the last bio. However,\nif an error is encountered on the remote NBD server (such as an incorrect\nmagic number in the request), or if there were a bug in the server, it is\npossible for the nbd_end_request to occur any time after the request\u0027s\naddition to the queuelist.\n\nThe following patch fixes this problem by making sure that requests are not\nadded to the queuelist until after they have been completed transmission.\n\nIn order for the receiving side to be ready for responses involving\nrequests still being transmitted, the patch introduces the concept of the\nactive request.\n\nWhen a response matches the current active request, its processing is\ndelayed until after the tranmission has come to a stop.\n\nThis has been tested by Janos and it has been successful in curing this\nrace condition.\n\nFrom: Herbert Xu \u003cherbert@gondor.apana.org.au\u003e\n\n Here is an updated patch which removes the active_req wait in\n nbd_clear_queue and the associated memory barrier.\n\n I\u0027ve also clarified this in the comment.\n\nSigned-off-by: Herbert Xu \u003cherbert@gondor.apana.org.au\u003e\nCc: \u003cdjani22@dynamicweb.hu\u003e\nCc: Paul Clements \u003cPaul.Clements@SteelEye.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Herbert Xu \u003cherbert@gondor.apana.org.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "29552b1462799afbe02af035b243e97579d63350", "tree": "42ad1639678a1bc8064f690494f62497bc48d318", "parents": [ "6c59f9d9fb95934bf3d7d64249b338ce79953b5b", "51e7a5987058c6b4d0c1337587f2ec0c34ffa708" ], "author": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Thu Jan 05 20:43:11 2006 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "Linus Torvalds", "email": "torvalds@g5.osdl.org", "time": "Thu Jan 05 20:43:11 2006 -0800" }, "message": "Merge http://oss.oracle.com/git/ocfs2\n" }, { "commit": "22dea562bb56dbc3430c8f23f60ccd38527b1f5a", "tree": "4bcb8a3c6136e09a4864fa0d9948c4ff2892b2ed", "parents": [ "b777e0ce7437a0e788e2aeb42aca9af2cce1f2e1" ], "author": { "name": "Patrick McHardy", "email": "kaber@trash.net", "time": "Thu Jan 05 12:21:34 2006 -0800" }, "committer": { "name": "David S.

A new field in struct usb_device holds the amount\nof bus current available from the upstream port, and the usb_hub structure\nkeeps track of the current available for each downstream port.\n\nTwo new rules for configuration selection are added:\n\n\tDon\u0027t select a self-powered configuration when only bus power\n\tis available.\n\n\tDon\u0027t select a configuration requiring more bus power than is\n\tavailable.\n\nHowever the first rule is #if-ed out, because I found that the internal\nhub in my HP USB keyboard claims that its only configuration is\nself-powered.

Since similar descriptor errors\nmay turn out to be fairly common, it seemed wise not to include a rule\nthat would break automatic configuration unnecessarily for such devices.\n\nThe second rule may also trigger unnecessarily, although this should be\nless common.

Extensions to the SELinux LSM are\nincluded that leverage the patch for this purpose.\n\nThis patch implements the changes necessary to the XFRM subsystem,\npfkey interface, ipv4/ipv6, and xfrm_user interface to restrict a\nsocket to use only authorized security associations (or no security\nassociation) to send/receive network packets.\n\nPatch purpose:\n\nThe patch is designed to enable access control per packets based on\nthe strongly authenticated IPSec security association. Such access\ncontrols augment the existing ones based on network interface and IP\naddress. The former are very coarse-grained, and the latter can be\nspoofed. By using IPSec, the system can control access to remote\nhosts based on cryptographic keys generated using the IPSec mechanism.\nThis enables access control on a per-machine basis or per-application\nif the remote machine is running the same mechanism and trusted to\nenforce the access control policy.\n\nPatch design approach:\n\nThe overall approach is that policy (xfrm_policy) entries set by\nuser-level programs (e.g., setkey for ipsec-tools) are extended with a\nsecurity context that is used at policy selection time in the XFRM\nsubsystem to restrict the sockets that can send/receive packets via\nsecurity associations (xfrm_states) that are built from those\npolicies.\n\nA presentation available at\nwww.selinux-symposium.org/2005/presentations/session2/2-3-jaeger.pdf\nfrom the SELinux symposium describes the overall approach.\n\nPatch implementation details:\n\nOn output, the policy retrieved (via xfrm_policy_lookup or\nxfrm_sk_policy_lookup) must be authorized for the security context of\nthe socket and the same security context is required for resultant\nsecurity association (retrieved or negotiated via racoon in\nipsec-tools). This is enforced in xfrm_state_find.\n\nOn input, the policy retrieved must also be authorized for the socket\n(at __xfrm_policy_check), and the security context of the policy must\nalso match the security association being used.\n\nThe patch has virtually no impact on packets that do not use IPSec.\nThe existing Netfilter (outgoing) and LSM rcv_skb hooks are used as\nbefore.\n\nAlso, if IPSec is used without security contexts, the impact is\nminimal. The LSM must allow such policies to be selected for the\ncombination of socket and remote machine, but subsequent IPSec\nprocessing proceeds as in the original case.\n\nTesting:\n\nThe pfkey interface is tested using the ipsec-tools. ipsec-tools have\nbeen modified (a separate ipsec-tools patch is available for version\n0.5) that supports assignment of xfrm_policy entries and security\nassociations with security contexts via setkey and the negotiation\nusing the security contexts via racoon.\n\nThe xfrm_user interface is tested via ad hoc programs that set\nsecurity contexts. These programs are also available from me, and\ncontain programs for setting, getting, and deleting policy for testing\nthis interface. Testing of sa functions was done by tracing kernel\nbehavior.\n\nSigned-off-by: Trent Jaeger \u003ctjaeger@cse.psu.edu\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Herbert Xu \u003cherbert@gondor.apana.org.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: David S.
