[PATCH 2/2] ocfs2: Fix race between mount and recovery
As the fs recovery is asynchronous, there is a small chance that another
node can mount (and thus recover) the slot before the recovery thread
gets to it.
If this happens, the recovery thread will block indefinitely on the
journal/slot lock as that lock will be held for the duration of the mount
(by design) by the node assigned to that slot.
The solution implemented is to keep track of the journal replays using
a recovery generation in the journal inode, which will be incremented by the
thread replaying that journal. The recovery thread, before attempting the
blocking lock on the journal/slot lock, will compare the generation on disk
with what it has cached and skip recovery if it does not match.
This bug appears to have been inadvertently introduced during the mount/umount
vote removal by mainline commit 34d024f84345807bf44163fac84e921513dde323. In the
mount voting scheme, the messaging would indirectly indicate that the slot
was being recovered.

[PATCH] configfs: Pin configfs subsystems separately from new config_items.
configfs_mkdir() creates a new item by calling its parent's

configfs_mkdir() calls try_module_get() on the new item's module. If it
succeeds, the module owning the new item cannot be unloaded, and
configfs is safe to reference the item.
If the item and the subsystem it belongs to are part of the same module,
the subsystem is also pinned. This is the common case.
However, if the subsystem is made up of multiple modules, this may not
pin the subsystem. Thus, it would be possible to unload the toplevel
subsystem module while there is still a child item. Thus, we now
try_module_get() the subsystem's module. This only really affects
children of the toplevel subsystem group. Deeper children already have
their parents pinned.

2/ "A" and "A/C" inodes are not locked while detach_item() is called on them,
which may probably confuse VFS.
This commit fixes 1/, tagging new directories with CONFIGFS_USET_CREATING before
building the inode and instantiating the dentry, and validating the whole
group+default groups hierarchy in a second pass by clearing
CONFIGFS_USET_CREATING.
mkdir(), symlink(), lookup(), and dir_open() simply return -ENOENT if
called in (or linking to) a directory tagged with CONFIGFS_USET_CREATING. This
does not prevent userspace from calling stat() successfuly on such directories,
but this prevents userspace from adding (children to | symlinking from/to |
read/write attributes of | listing the contents of) not validated items. In
other words, userspace will not interact with the subsystem on a new item until
the new item creation completes correctly.
It was first proposed to re-use CONFIGFS_USET_IN_MKDIR instead of a new
flag CONFIGFS_USET_CREATING, but this generated conflicts when checking the
target of a new symlink: a valid target directory in the middle of attaching
a new user-created child item could be wrongly detected as being attached.

[PATCH] configfs: Fix symlink() to a removing item
The rule for configfs symlinks is that symlinks always point to valid
config_items, and prevent the target from being removed. However,
configfs_symlink() only checks that it can grab a reference on the target item,
without ensuring that it remains alive until the symlink is correctly attached.
This patch makes configfs_symlink() fail whenever the target is being removed,
using the CONFIGFS_USET_DROPPING flag set by configfs_detach_prep() and
protected by configfs_dirent_lock.
This patch introduces a similar (weird?) behavior as with mkdir failures making
rmdir fail: if symlink() races with rmdir() of the parent directory (or its
youngest user-created ancestor if parent is a default group) or rmdir() of the
target directory, and then fails in configfs_create(), this can make the racing
rmdir() fail despite the concerned directory having no user-created entry (resp.
no symlink pointing to it or one of its default groups) in the end.
This behavior is fixed in later patches.
kbuild: genksyms parser: fix the __attribute__ rule
We are having two kinds of problems with genksyms today: fake checksum
changes without actual ABI changes, and changes which we would rather like
to ignore (such as an additional field at the end of a structure that
modules are not supposed to touch, for example).
I have thought about ways to improve genksyms and compute checksums
differently to avoid those problems, but in the end I don't see a
fundamentally better way. So here are some genksyms patches for at least
making the checksums more easily manageable, if we cannot fully fix them.
In addition to the bugfixes (the first two patches), this allows genksyms
to track checksum changes and report why a checksum changed (third patch),
and to selectively ignore changes (fourth patch).
This patch:
Gcc __attribute__ definitions may occur repeatedly, e.g.,
static int foo __attribute__((__used__))
__attribute__((aligned (16)));
The genksyms parser does not understand this, and generates a syntax error.

[MIPS] kgdb: add arch support for the kernel's kgdb core
The new kgdb architecture specific handler registers and unregisters
dynamically for exceptions depending on when you configure a kgdb I/O
driver.
Aside from initializing the exceptions earlier in the boot process,
kgdb should have no impact on a device when it is compiled in so long
as an I/O module is not configured for use.
There have been quite a number of contributors during the existence of
this patch (see arch/mips/kernel/kgdb.c). Most recently Jason
re-wrote the mips kgdb logic to use the die notification handlers.

[MIPS] kgdb: Remove existing implementation
This patch explicitly removes the kgdb implementation, for mips which
is intended to be followed by a patch that adds a kgdb implementation
for MIPS that makes use of the kgdb core in the kernel.
* Random cleanups spotted by checkpatch script.
* Do not initialize panic_timeout. "panic=" kernel parameter can be used.
* Do not add "ip=any" or "ip=bootp". This options is not board specific.
* Do not add "root=/dev/nfs". This is default on CONFIG_ROOT_NFS.
* Kill unused error checking.
* Fix IRQ comment to match current code.
* Kill some unneeded includes
* ST0_ERL is already cleared in generic code.
* conswitchp is initialized generic code.
* __init is not needed in prototype.

[MIPS] Initialization of Alchemy boards
An earlier update changed some calls from simple_strotl to strict_strtol but
did not account for the differences in the syntax between the calls.
simple_strotl returns the integer; strict_strtol returns an error code and
takes a pointer to the result. As it was, NULL was being passed in place of
the result, which led to failures during kernel initialization when using
YAMON.
Bug originally found and reported by Julia Lawall <[email protected]>. I
decieded that the whole error check was mostly useless paranoia and should
be discarded. It would only ever trigger if r3k_have_wired_reg has a wrong
value.

kbuild: fix O=... build of um
We used include/asm-$ARCH/system.h to check if
we should create a symlink in include2 directory with
make O=... builds.
But um does not have such a file thus build filed.
Let's try anohter filename:
$ ls -d include/asm-* | wc -l
