Removed extra 'an' in ext4 docs. #9

There as an extra 'an' in this doc, so I removed it.

thankyou kind sir, your commit will not go unnoticed.

Please note that pull requests are not the proper procedure to submit patches to the Linux kernel (Linus put the kernel up here because kernel.org's master mirror is down; it seems that he doesn't like the pull request system[1], but github does not allow him to disable it). Please read Documentation/SubmittingPatches - you must write a proper commit message, add a Signed-Off-By line, and submit to the linux kernel mailing list, CCing the affected maintainers (ie, not Linus in most cases).

can you please point me at some url where I can read that submitting patches documentation? thanks!

smartinez87, this is pretty silly stuffs, these stunt-style pull requests that have been coming into this repo lately. Sure it's open source and you want to help fix it, but as bdonlan notes above, there are proper guidelines to be followed to submit patches to be fixed. A simpler solution (lifted wholesale from reddit here btw): someone volunteers to run the "typo in the readme" branch. People send pull requests to them. When that branch has a delta of more than a couple fucking kilobytes, then a reasonable pull request can be sent to the main project.

Also look at this link to the Kernel Janitors site please in the future for things related to code quality guidelines cleaner-uppers in the kernel.

Let's not distract and annoy Linus with such silly trivialities like this, it just makes you look like a jackass.

Bravo!

smartinez87 · 2011-09-06T15:21:38Z

hey, I just don't care about this, just noticed the typo and wanted the people that can do something about this to know about it and fix it. If no one care about the docs, I care even less.

@snarkyMcSnark is right. @smartinez87 is just unnecessarily trying to create work for a high profile project just to be part of the commit history. His background points to the same. He claims to be a core contributor for the rails project although his entire commit history consists solely of frivolous grammatical and whitespace changes to the documentation. In fact he has no original commits for documentation either just small formatting changes to existing commits. This is entirely true.

@diegoviola, instead of you two trying to fix whitespace issues and unnecessarily trying to police other contributors you should work on something useful. These are all valid arguments and the original committer has a bad history of doing this and 3 people have already pointed that out.

In commit 5ec094c "nfsd4: extend state lock over seqid replay logic" I modified the exit logic of all the seqid-based procedures except nfsd4_locku(). Fix the oversight.

If the pte mapping in generic_perform_write() is unmapped between iov_iter_fault_in_readable() and iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic(), the "copied" parameter to ->end_write can be zero. ext4 couldn't cope with it with delayed allocations enabled.

It wouldn't normally trigger but I don't see why it can't happen normally if the page is added to swap cache in between the two faults leading to "copied" being zero (which then hangs in ext4). So it should be fixed. Especially possible with lumpy reclaim (albeit disabled if compaction is enabled) as that would ignore the young bits in the ptes.

If the netdev is already in NETREG_UNREGISTERING/_UNREGISTERED state, do not update the real num tx queues. netdev_queue_update_kobjects() is already called via remove_queue_kobjects() at NETREG_UNREGISTERING time. So, when upper layer driver, e.g., FCoE protocol stack is monitoring the netdev event of NETDEV_UNREGISTER and calls back to LLD ndo_fcoe_disable() to remove extra queues allocated for FCoE, the associated txq sysfs kobjects are already removed, and trying to update the real num queues would cause something like below: ...

…s are not initialised Current ARM local timer code registers CPUFREQ notifiers even in case the twd_timer_setup() isn't called. That seems to be wrong and would eventually lead to kernel crash on the CPU frequency transitions on the SOCs where the local timer doesn't exist or broken because of hardware BUG. Fix it by testing twd_evt and *__this_cpu_ptr(twd_evt). The issue was observed with v3.3-rc3 and building an OMAP2+ kernel on OMAP3 SOC which doesn't have TWD.

There is an issue when memcg unregisters events that were attached to the same eventfd: - On the first call mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event() removes all events attached to a given eventfd, and if there were no events left, thresholds->primary would become NULL; - Since there were several events registered, cgroups core will call mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event() again, but now kernel will oops, as the function doesn't expect that threshold->primary may be NULL. That's a good question whether mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event() should actually remove all events in one go, but nowadays it can't do any better as cftype->unregister_event callback doesn't pass any private event-associated cookie. So, let's fix the issue by simply checking for threshold->primary. FWIW, w/o the patch the following oops may be observed: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000004 IP: [<ffffffff810be32c>] mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event+0x9c/0x1f0 Pid: 574, comm: kworker/0:2 Not tainted 3.3.0-rc4+ #9 Bochs Bochs RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810be32c>] [<ffffffff810be32c>] mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event+0x9c/0x1f0 RSP: 0018:ffff88001d0b9d60 EFLAGS: 00010246 Process kworker/0:2 (pid: 574, threadinfo ffff88001d0b8000, task ffff88001de91cc0) Call Trace: [<ffffffff8107092b>] cgroup_event_remove+0x2b/0x60 [<ffffffff8103db94>] process_one_work+0x174/0x450 [<ffffffff8103e413>] worker_thread+0x123/0x2d0 Cc: stable <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <[email protected]> Acked-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <[email protected]> Cc: Kirill A.

commit 371528c upstream. There is an issue when memcg unregisters events that were attached to the same eventfd: - On the first call mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event() removes all events attached to a given eventfd, and if there were no events left, thresholds->primary would become NULL; - Since there were several events registered, cgroups core will call mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event() again, but now kernel will oops, as the function doesn't expect that threshold->primary may be NULL. That's a good question whether mem_cgroup_usage_unregister_event() should actually remove all events in one go, but nowadays it can't do any better as cftype->unregister_event callback doesn't pass any private event-associated cookie. So, let's fix the issue by simply checking for threshold->primary.

The patch ensures that zone_reclaimable_pages() includes free pages (NR_FREE_PAGES) in its calculation when no other reclaimable pages are available (e.g., file-backed or anonymous pages). This change prevents zones like ZONE_DMA32, which have sufficient free pages, from being mistakenly deemed unreclaimable. By doing so, the patch ensures proper node balancing, avoids masking pressure on other zones like ZONE_NORMAL, and prevents infinite loops in throttle_direct_reclaim() caused by allow_direct_reclaim(pgdat) repeatedly returning false. The kernel hangs due to a task stuck in throttle_direct_reclaim(), caused by a node being incorrectly deemed balanced despite pressure in certain zones, such as ZONE_NORMAL. This issue arises from zone_reclaimable_pages() returning 0 for zones without reclaimable file- backed or anonymous pages, causing zones like ZONE_DMA32 with sufficient free pages to be skipped. The lack of swap or reclaimable pages results in ZONE_DMA32 being ignored during reclaim, masking pressure in other zones. Consequently, pgdat->kswapd_failures remains 0 in balance_pgdat(), preventing fallback mechanisms in allow_direct_reclaim() from being triggered, leading to an infinite loop in throttle_direct_reclaim(). This patch modifies zone_reclaimable_pages() to account for free pages (NR_FREE_PAGES) when no other reclaimable pages exist. This ensures zones with sufficient free pages are not skipped, enabling proper balancing and reclaim behavior.

The bnxt_queue_mem_alloc() is called to allocate new queue memory when a queue is restarted. It internally accesses rx buffer descriptor corresponding to the index. The rx buffer descriptor is allocated and set when the interface is up and it's freed when the interface is down. So, if queue is restarted if interface is down, kernel panic occurs.

Inspired by mutex blocker tracking[1], this patch makes a trade-off to balance the overhead and utility of the hung task detector. Unlike mutexes, semaphores lack explicit ownership tracking, making it challenging to identify the root cause of hangs. To address this, we introduce a last_holder field to the semaphore structure, which is updated when a task successfully calls down() and cleared during up(). The assumption is that if a task is blocked on a semaphore, the holders must not have released it. While this does not guarantee that the last holder is one of the current blockers, it likely provides a practical hint for diagnosing semaphore-related stalls. With this change, the hung task detector can now show blocker task's info like below: [Sat Mar 1 02:39:52 2025] INFO: task cat:1437 blocked for more than 122 seconds.

The env.pmu_mapping can be leaked when it reads data from a pipe on AMD. For a pipe data, it reads the header data including pmu_mapping from PERF_RECORD_HEADER_FEATURE runtime. But it's already set in: perf_session__new() __perf_session__new() evlist__init_trace_event_sample_raw() evlist__has_amd_ibs() perf_env__nr_pmu_mappings() Then it'll overwrite that when it processes the HEADER_FEATURE record. Here's a report from address sanitizer.
