If only the output substream of a RawMIDI device has been opened and
if this device is then opened with O_RDWR | O_APPEND and if the

memory or because the device driver's open callback fails), then the
runtime structure of the already open output substream will be freed
and all following writes through the first handle will cause
snd_rawmidi_write() to use the NULL runtime pointer.

Commit 9a1b64caac82aa02cb74587ffc798e6f42c6170a in 2.6.30 dropped the
check that a substream must already have been opened with O_APPEND to be

This would make it possible for a substream to be switched to append
mode, which would mean that non-atomic writes would fail unexpectedly.

Correct nr_processes() when CPUs have been unplugged
nr_processes() returns the sum of the per cpu counter process_counts for
all online CPUs. This counter is incremented for the current CPU on
fork() and decremented for the current CPU on exit(). Since a process
does not necessarily fork and exit on the same CPU the process_count for
an individual CPU can be either positive or negative and effectively has
no meaning in isolation.
Therefore calculating the sum of process_counts over only the online
CPUs omits the processes which were started or stopped on any CPU which
has since been unplugged. Only the sum of process_counts across all
possible CPUs has meaning.
The only caller of nr_processes() is proc_root_getattr() which
calculates the number of links to /proc as
stat->nlink = proc_root.nlink + nr_processes();
You don't have to be all that unlucky for the nr_processes() to return a
negative value leading to a negative number of links (or rather, an
apparently enormous number of links). If this happens then you can get
failures where things like "ls /proc" start to fail because they got an
-EOVERFLOW from some stat() call.
I'm not 100% convinced that the per_cpu regions remain valid for offline
CPUs, although my testing suggests that they do. If not then I think the
correct solution would be to aggregate the process_count for a given CPU
into a global base value in cpu_down().
This bug appears to pre-date the transition to git and it looks like it
may even have been present in linux-2.6.0-test7-bk3 since it looks like
the code Rusty patched in http://lwn.net/Articles/64773/ was already
wrong.

* 'release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aegl/linux-2.6:
Revert "[IA64] fix percpu warnings"
[IA64] fix percpu warnings
[IA64] SMT friendly version of spin_unlock_wait()
[IA64] use printk_once() unaligned.c/io_common.c
[IA64] Require SAL 3.2 in order to do extended config space ops
[IA64] unsigned cannot be less than 0 in sn_hwperf_ioctl()
[IA64] Restore registers in the stack on INIT
[IA64] Re-implement spinaphores using ticket lock concepts
[IA64] Squeeze ticket locks back into 4 bytes.
It can basically cause an ext4 filesystem to miss recovery (and thus get
mounted with errors) if the journal checksum does not match.
Quoth Eric:
"My hand-wavy hunch about what is happening is that we're finding a
bad checksum on the last partially-written transaction, which is
not surprising, but if we have a wrapped log and we're doing the
initial scan for head/tail, and we abort scanning on that bad
checksum, then we are essentially running an unrecovered filesystem.
But that's hand-wavy and I need to go look at the code.
We lived without journal checksums on by default until now, and at
this point they're doing more harm than good, so we should revert
the default-changing commit until we can fix it and do some good
power-fail testing with the fixes in place."
