Re-introduce page mapping check in mark_buffer_dirty()
In commit a8e7d49aa7be728c4ae241a75a2a124cdcabc0c5 ("Fix race in
create_empty_buffers() vs __set_page_dirty_buffers()"), I removed a test
for a NULL page mapping unintentionally when some of the code inside
__set_page_dirty() was moved to the callers.
That removal generally didn't matter, since a filesystem would serialize
truncation (which clears the page mapping) against writing (which marks
the buffer dirty), so locking at a higher level (either per-page or an
inode at a time) should mean that the buffer page would be stable. And
indeed, nothing bad seemed to happen.
Except it turns out that apparently reiserfs does something odd when
under load and writing out the journal, and we have a number of bugzilla
entries that look similar:
and it looks like reiserfs depended on that check (the common theme
seems to be "data=journal", and a journal writeback during a truncate).
I suspect reiserfs should have some additional locking, but in the
meantime this should get us back to the pre-2.6.29 behavior.

x86: don't call '->send_IPI_mask()' with an empty mask
As noted in 83d349f35e1ae72268c5104dbf9ab2ae635425d4 ("x86: don't send
an IPI to the empty set of CPU's"), some APIC's will be very unhappy
with an empty destination mask. That commit added a WARN_ON() for that
case, and avoided the resulting problem, but didn't fix the underlying
reason for why those empty mask cases happened.
This fixes that, by checking the result of 'cpumask_andnot()' of the
current CPU actually has any other CPU's left in the set of CPU's to be
sent a TLB flush, and not calling down to the IPI code if the mask is
empty.
The reason this started happening at all is that we started passing just
the CPU mask pointers around in commit 4595f9620 ("x86: change
flush_tlb_others to take a const struct cpumask"), and when we did that,
the cpumask was no longer thread-local.
Before that commit, flush_tlb_mm() used to create it's own copy of
'mm->cpu_vm_mask' and pass that copy down to the low-level flush
routines after having tested that it was not empty. But after changing
it to just pass down the CPU mask pointer, the lower level TLB flush
routines would now get a pointer to that 'mm->cpu_vm_mask', and that
could still change - and become empty - after the test due to other
CPU's having flushed their own TLB's.
See
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13933

Make bitmask 'and' operators return a result code
When 'and'ing two bitmasks (where 'andnot' is a variation on it), some
cases want to know whether the result is the empty set or not. In
particular, the TLB IPI sending code wants to do cpumask operations and
determine if there are any CPU's left in the final set.
So this just makes the bitmask (and cpumask) functions return a boolean
for whether the result has any bits set.

x86: don't send an IPI to the empty set of CPU's
The default_send_IPI_mask_logical() function uses the "flat" APIC mode
to send an IPI to a set of CPU's at once, but if that set happens to be
empty, some older local APIC's will apparently be rather unhappy. So
just warn if a caller gives us an empty mask, and ignore it.
This fixes a regression in 2.6.30.x, due to commit 4595f9620 ("x86:
change flush_tlb_others to take a const struct cpumask"), documented
here:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13933
which causes a silent lock-up. It only seems to happen on PPro, P2, P3
and Athlon XP cores. Most developers sadly (or not so sadly, if you're
a developer..) have more modern CPU's. Also, on x86-64 we don't use the
flat APIC mode, so it would never trigger there even if the APIC didn't
like sending an empty IPI mask.

vfork() parent and child are shared the same mm_struct. then above
set_oom_adj(0) doesn't only change oom_adj for vfork() child, it's also
change oom_adj for vfork() parent. Then, vfork() parent (job scheduler)
lost OOM immune and it was killed.
Actually, fork-setting-exec idiom is very frequently used in userland program.
We must not break this assumption.

This turns out to be a bug brought by an -rc1 patch ("nilfs2: simplify
remaining sget() use").
In the patch, a new "put resource" function, nilfs_put_sbinfo()
was introduced to delay freeing nilfs_sb_info struct.
But the nilfs_put_sbinfo() mistakenly used atomic_dec_and_test()
function to check the reference count, and it caused the nilfs_sb_info
was freed when user mounted a snapshot twice.
This bug also suggests there was unseen memory leak in usual mount
/umount operations for nilfs.

inotify: start watch descriptor count at 1
The inotify_add_watch man page specifies that inotify_add_watch() will

watches started at 1, not at 0.
Turns out that the inotifywait program provided by the inotify-tools
package doesn't properly handle a 0 watch descriptor. In 7e790dd5 we
changed from starting at 1 to starting at 0. This patch starts at 1,
just like in previous kernels, but also just like in previous kernels
it's possible for it to wrap back to 0. This preserves the kernel
functionality exactly like it was before the patch (neither method broke

The safe solution is to not initialize MCEs if we dont know on

disabled in the config).
Also be a bit more defensive on 32-bit systems: dont do a
boot-time dump of pending MCEs not just on the specific system
that we found a problem with (Pentium-M), but earlier ones as
well.
Now this problem is probably not common and disabling CPU
support is rare - but still being more defensive in something
we turned on for a wide range of CPUs is prudent.

perf_counter: Check task on counter read IPI
In general, code in perf_counter.c that is called through an
IPI checks, for per-task counters, that the counter's task is
still the current task. This is to handle the race condition
where the cpu switches from the task we want to another task in
the interval between sending the IPI and the IPI arriving and
being handled on the target CPU.
For some reason, __perf_counter_read is missing this check, yet
there is no reason why the race condition can't occur. This
adds a check that the current task is the one we want. If it
isn't, we just return. In that case the counter->count value
should be up to date, since it will have been updated when the
counter was scheduled out, which must have happened since the
IPI was sent.
I don't have an example of an actual failure due to this race,
but it seems obvious that it could occur and we need to guard
against it.
