simply a silently hung machine.

still be limited by the buffering routines themselves, so there is no
advantage or need in having pty_write() artificially limit the size
somehow.
And what happened was that the caller (the n_tty line discipline, in
this case) may have verified that there is room for 2 bytes to be
written (for NL -> CRNL expansion), and it used to then do those writes
as two single-byte writes. And if the first byte written (CR) then
caused a new tty buffer to be allocated, pty_space() may have returned
zero when trying to write the second byte (LF), and then incorrectly
failed the write - leading to a lost newline character.
This should finally fix

When translating CR to CRNL in the n_tty line discipline, we did it as
two tty_put_char() calls. Which works, but is stupid, and has caused
problems before too with bad interactions with the write_room() logic.
The generic USB serial driver had that problem, for example.
Now the pty layer had similar issues after being moved to the generic
tty buffering code (in commit d945cb9cce20ac7143c2de8d88b187f62db99bdc:
"pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic").
So stop doing the silly separate two writes, and do it as a single write
instead. That's what the n_tty layer already does for the space
expansion of tabs (XTABS), and it means that we'll now always have just
a single write for the CRNL to match the single 'tty_write_room()' test,
which hopefully means that the next time somebody screws up buffering,
it won't cause weeks of debugging.
But the root of the problem lies in the fact that do_execve() path calls
tracehook_report_exec() which can stop if the tracer sets PT_TRACE_EXEC.
The tracee must not sleep in TASK_TRACED holding this mutex. Even if we
remove ->cred_guard_mutex from mm_for_maps() and proc_pid_attr_write(),
another task doing PTRACE_ATTACH should not hang until it is killed or the
tracee resumes.
With this patch do_execve() does not use ->cred_guard_mutex directly and
we do not hold it throughout, instead:
- introduce prepare_bprm_creds() helper, it locks the mutex
and calls prepare_exec_creds() to initialize bprm->cred.
- install_exec_creds() drops the mutex after commit_creds(),
and thus before tracehook_report_exec()->ptrace_stop().
or, if exec fails,
free_bprm() drops this mutex when bprm->cred != NULL which
indicates install_exec_creds() was not called.

page-allocator: always change pageblock ownership when anti-fragmentation is disabled
On low-memory systems, anti-fragmentation gets disabled as fragmentation
cannot be avoided on a sufficiently large boundary to be worthwhile. Once
disabled, there is a period of time when all the pageblocks are marked
MOVABLE and the expectation is that they get marked UNMOVABLE at each call
to __rmqueue_fallback().
However, when MAX_ORDER is large the pageblocks do not change ownership
because the normal criteria are not met. This has the effect of
prematurely breaking up too many large contiguous blocks. This is most
serious on NOMMU systems which depend on high-order allocations to boot.
This patch causes pageblocks to change ownership on every fallback when
anti-fragmentation is disabled. This prevents the large blocks being
prematurely broken up.
This is a fix to commit 49255c619fbd482d704289b5eb2795f8e3b7ff2e [page

Fix some problems seen in the chunk size processing when activating a
pre-existing snapshot.
For a new snapshot, the chunk size can either be supplied by the creator
or a default value can be used. For an existing snapshot, the
chunk size in the snapshot header on disk should always be used.
If someone attempts to load an existing snapshot and has the 'default
chunk size' option set, the kernel uses its default value even when it
is incorrect for the snapshot being loaded. This patch ensures the
correct on-disk value is always used.
Secondly, when the code does use the chunk size stored on the disk it is
prudent to revalidate it, so the code can exit cleanly if it got
corrupted as happened in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461506 .
dm snapshot: fix header corruption race on invalidation
If a persistent snapshot fills up, a race can corrupt the on-disk header
which causes a crash on any future attempt to activate the snapshot
(typically while booting). This patch fixes the race.
When the snapshot overflows, __invalidate_snapshot is called, which calls
snapshot store method drop_snapshot. It goes to persistent_drop_snapshot that
calls write_header. write_header constructs the new header in the "area"
location.
Concurrently, an existing kcopyd job may finish, call copy_callback
and commit_exception method, that goes to persistent_commit_exception.
persistent_commit_exception doesn't do locking, relying on the fact that
callbacks are single-threaded, but it can race with snapshot invalidation and
overwrite the header that is just being written while the snapshot is being
invalidated.
The result of this race is a corrupted header being written that can
lead to a crash on further reactivation (if chunk_size is zero in the
corrupted header).
The fix is to use separate memory areas for each.
See the bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461506
dm log: userspace add luid to distinguish between concurrent log instances
Device-mapper userspace logs (like the clustered log) are
identified by a universally unique identifier (UUID). This
identifier is used to associate requests from the kernel to
a specific log in userspace. The UUID must be unique everywhere,
since multiple machines may use this identifier when communicating
about a particular log, as is the case for cluster logs.
Sometimes, device-mapper/LVM may re-use a UUID. This is the
case during pvmoves, when moving from one segment of an LV
to another, or when resizing a mirror, etc. In these cases,
a new log is created with the same UUID and loaded in the
"inactive" slot. When a device-mapper "resume" is issued,
the "live" table is deactivated and the new "inactive" table
becomes "live". (The "inactive" table can also be removed
via a device-mapper 'clear' command.)
The above two issues were colliding. More than one log was being
created with the same UUID, and there was no way to distinguish
between them. So, sometimes the wrong log would be swapped
out during the exchange.
The solution is to create a locally unique identifier,
'luid', to go along with the UUID. This new identifier is used
to determine exactly which log is being referenced by the kernel
when the log exchange is made. The identifier is not
universally safe, but it does not need to be, since
create/destroy/suspend/resume operations are bound to a specific
machine; and these are the operations that make up the exchange.

dm raid1: do not allow log_failure variable to unset after being set
This patch fixes a bug which was triggering a case where the primary leg
could not be changed on failure even when the mirror was in-sync.
The case involves the failure of the primary device along with
the transient failure of the log device. The problem is that
bios can be put on the 'failures' list (due to log failure)
before 'fail_mirror' is called due to the primary device failure.
Normally, this is fine, but if the log device failure is transient,
a subsequent iteration of the work thread, 'do_mirror', will
reset 'log_failure'. The 'do_failures' function then resets
the 'in_sync' variable when processing bios on the failures list.
The 'in_sync' variable is what is used to determine if the
primary device can be switched in the event of a failure. Since
this has been reset, the primary device is incorrectly assumed
to be not switchable.
The case has been seen in the cluster mirror context, where one
machine realizes the log device is dead before the other machines.
As the responsibilities of the server migrate from one node to
another (because the mirror is being reconfigured due to the failure),
the new server may think for a moment that the log device is fine -
thus resetting the 'log_failure' variable.
In any case, it is inappropiate for us to reset the 'log_failure'
variable. The above bug simply illustrates that it can actually
hurt us.

dm log: remove incorrect field from userspace table output
The output of 'dmsetup table' includes an internal field that should not
be there. This patch removes it. To make the fix simpler, we first
reorder a constructor argument
The 'device size' argument is generated internally. Currently it is
placed as the last space-separated word of the constructor string.
However, we need to use a version of the string without this word, so we
move it to the beginning instead so it is trivial to skip past it.
We keep a copy of the arguments passed to userspace for creating a log,
just in case we need to resend them. These are the same arguments that
are desired in the STATUSTYPE_TABLE request, except for one. When
creating the userspace log, the userspace daemon must know the size of
the mirror, so that is added to the arguments given in the constructor
table. We were printing this extra argument out as well, which is a
mistake.

dm stripe: expose correct io hints
Set sensible I/O hints for striped DM devices in the topology
infrastructure added for 2.6.31 for userspace tools to
obtain via sysfs.
Add .io_hints to 'struct target_type' to allow the I/O hints portion
(io_min and io_opt) of the 'struct queue_limits' to be set by each
target and implement this for dm-stripe.

dm table: add more context to terse warning messages
A couple of recent warning messages make it difficult for the reader to
determine exactly what is wrong. This patch adds more information to
those messages.
The logic to check for valid device areas is inverted relative to proper
use with iterate_devices.
The iterate_devices method calls its callback for every underlying
device in the target. If any callback returns non-zero, iterate_devices
exits immediately. But the callback device_area_is_valid() returns 0 on
error and 1 on success. The overall effect without is that an error is
issued only if every device is invalid.
This patch renames device_area_is_valid to device_area_is_invalid and
inverts the logic so that one invalid device is sufficient to raise
an error.

dm snapshot: implement iterate devices
Implement the .iterate_devices for the origin and snapshot targets.
dm-snapshot's lack of .iterate_devices resulted in the inability to
properly establish queue_limits for both targets.
With 4K sector drives: an unfortunate side-effect of not establishing
proper limits in either targets' DM device was that IO to the devices
would fail even though both had been created without error.
Commit af4874e03ed82f050d5872d8c39ce64bf16b5c38 ("dm target:s introduce
iterate devices fn") in 2.6.31-rc1 should have implemented .iterate_devices
for dm-snap.c's origin and snapshot targets.

If map_request() calls dm_kill_unmapped_request() to complete a cloned
bio without dispatching it, clone->bio is still set when
dm_end_request() is called and the BUG_ON(clone->bio) is incorrect.
The patch fixes this bug by freeing bio in dm_end_request() if the clone
has bio. I've redone my tests to cover all I/O paths and confirmed
there's no other regression.
Here is the oops I hit in request-based dm when I do I/O to a multipath
device which doesn't have any active path nor queue_if_no_path setting:
