Increase TEST_SUSPEND_SECONDS to 10 so the warning in
suspend_test_finish() doesn't annoy the users of slower systems so much.
Also, make the warning print the suspend-resume cycle time, so that we
know why the warning actually triggered.

This patch fixes a null pointer exception in pipe_rdwr_open() which
generates the stack trace:
> Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028 RIP:
> [<ffffffff802899a5>] pipe_rdwr_open+0x35/0x70

> [<ffffffff8021faf3>] sysenter_do_call+0x1b/0x67
The failure mode is triggered by an attempt to open an anonymous
pipe via /proc/pid/fd/* as exemplified by this script:
=============================================================
while : ; do
{ echo y ; sleep 1 ; } | { while read ; do echo z$REPLY; done ; } &
PID=$!
OUT=$(ps -efl | grep 'sleep 1' | grep -v grep |
{ read PID REST ; echo $PID; } )
OUT="${OUT%% *}"
DELAY=$((RANDOM * 1000 / 32768))
usleep $((DELAY * 1000 + RANDOM % 1000 ))
echo n > /proc/$OUT/fd/1 # Trigger defect
done
=============================================================
Note that the failure window is quite small and I could only
reliably reproduce the defect by inserting a small delay
in pipe_rdwr_open(). For example:
static int
pipe_rdwr_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp)
{
msleep(100);
mutex_lock(&inode->i_mutex);
Although the defect was observed in pipe_rdwr_open(), I think it
makes sense to replicate the change through all the pipe_*_open()
functions.
The core of the change is to verify that inode->i_pipe has not
been released before attempting to manipulate it. If inode->i_pipe
is no longer present, return ENOENT to indicate so.
The comment about potentially using atomic_t for i_pipe->readers
and i_pipe->writers has also been removed because it is no longer
relevant in this context. The inode->i_mutex lock must be used so
that inode->i_pipe can be dealt with correctly.

When renaming kernel_fpu_using to irq_fpu_usable, the semantics of the
function is changed too, from mesuring whether kernel is using FPU,
that is, the FPU is NOT available, to measuring whether FPU is usable,
that is, the FPU is available.
But the usage of irq_fpu_usable in aesni-intel_glue.c is not changed
accordingly. This patch fixes this.

If we do rename a dir entry, like this:
rename("/tmp/ino7UrgoJ.rename1", "/tmp/ino7UrgoJ.rename2")
rename("/tmp/ino7UrgoJ.rename2", "/tmp/ino7UrgoJ")
The duplicate events should be coalesced into a single event. But those two
events do not be coalesced into a single event, due to some bad check in
event_compare(). It can not match the two NULL inodes as the same event.

In 2.6.33 there will be no users of the inotify interface. Mark it for
removal as fsnotify is more generic and is easier to use.

fsnotify_add_mark is supposed to add a mark to the g_list and i_list and to
set the group and inode for the mark. fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry uses
the fact that ->group != NULL to know if this group should be destroyed or
if it's already been done.
But fsnotify_add_mark sets the group and inode before it actually adds the
mark to the i_list and g_list. This can result in a race in inotify, it
requires 3 threads.
sys_inotify_add_watch("file") sys_inotify_add_watch("file") sys_inotify_rm_watch([a])
inotify_update_watch()
inotify_new_watch()
inotify_add_to_idr()
^--- returns wd = [a]
inotfiy_update_watch()
inotify_new_watch()
inotify_add_to_idr()
fsnotify_add_mark()
^--- returns wd = [b]
returns to userspace;
inotify_idr_find([a])
^--- gives us the pointer from task 1
fsnotify_add_mark()
^--- this is going to set the mark->group and mark->inode fields, but will
return -EEXIST because of the race with [b].
fsnotify_destroy_mark()
^--- since ->group != NULL we call back
into inotify_freeing_mark() which calls
inotify_remove_from_idr([a])
since fsnotify_add_mark() failed we call:
inotify_remove_from_idr([a]) <------WHOOPS it's not in the idr, this could
have been any entry added later!
The fix is to make sure we don't set mark->group until we are sure the mark is
on the inode and fsnotify_add_mark will return success.

On this model, when KBD is in active multiplexing mode, acknowledgements
to reset and get ID commands issued on KBD port sometimes are delivered
to AUX3 port (touchpad) which messes up device detection. Legacy KBC
mode works fine and since there are no external PS/2 ports on this laptop
and no support for docking station we can safely disable active MUX mode.

Allow the snapshot chunk size to be smaller than the page size
The code is now capable of handling this due to some previous
fixes and enhancements.
As the page size varies between computers, prior to this patch,
the chunk size of a snapshot dictated which machines could read it:
Snapshots created on one machine might not be readable on another.

Use unsigned integer chunk size.
Maximum chunk size is 512kB, there won't ever be need to use 4GB chunk size,
so the number can be 32-bit. This fixes compiler failure on 32-bit systems
with large block devices.

If we are creating snapshot with memory-stored exception store, fail if
the user didn't specify chunk size. Zero chunk size would probably crash
a lot of places in the rest of snapshot code.

Multiple instances of dec_pending() can run concurrently so a lock is
needed when it saves the first error code.
I have never experienced actual problem without locking and just found
this during code inspection while implementing the barrier support
patch for request-based dm.
This patch adds the locking.
I've done compile, boot and basic I/O testings.
