• 00a5dfdb9   [PATCH] Fix semundo lock leakage ... Browse Code »

  semundo->lock can leak if semundo->refcount goes from 2 to 1 while
  another thread has it locked. This causes major problems for PREEMPT
  kernels.

  The simplest fix for now is to undo the single-thread optimization.

  This bug was found via relentless testing by Dominik Karall.

• 6ade43fbb   [PATCH] shm: CONFIG_SHMEM=n build fix ... Browse Code »

  Fix bug found by Grant Coady 's autobuild setup.

  shmem_set_policy() and shmem_get_policy() are macros if !CONFIG_SHMEM, so this
  doesn't work.

• 813e67836   [PATCH] xtensa: remove old syscalls ... Browse Code »

  This patch fixes some minor bugs introduced by the previous patch (remove
  old syscalls). Both patches remove the obsolete syscalls. The changes in
  this patch were suggested by Arnd Bergmann. The vmlinux.lds.S changes are
  required for the latest gcc/binutils.

  GCC 4 complains because the function put_compat_shminfo() can't get to its
  return statement if there is no error... If the function does not return
  -EFAULT, it doesn't return anything at all. Looks like a typo.

  Patrick noticed that the initial scan of the semaphore operations logs
  decrease and increase operations seperately, but then both cases are or'ed
  together and decrease is never used. The attached patch removes the
  decrease parameter - it shrinks sys_semtimedop() by 56 bytes.

  Convert most of the current code that uses _NSIG directly to instead use
  valid_signal(). This avoids gcc -W warnings and off-by-one errors.

  Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
  even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
  archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
  3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
  git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
  infrastructure for it.

  Let it rip!
