It is frequently useful to sync a single file system, instead of all
mounted file systems via sync(2):
- On machines with many mounts, it is not at all uncommon for some of
them to hang (e.g. unresponsive NFS server). sync(2) will get stuck on
those and may never get to the one you do care about (e.g., /).
- Some applications write lots of data to the file system and then
want to make sure it is flushed to disk. Calling fsync(2) on each
file introduces unnecessary ordering constraints that result in a large
amount of sub-optimal writeback/flush/commit behavior by the file
system.
There are currently two ways (that I know of) to sync a single super_block:
- BLKFLSBUF ioctl on the block device: That also invalidates the bdev
mapping, which isn't usually desirable, and doesn't work for non-block
file systems.
- 'mount -o remount,rw' will call sync_filesystem as an artifact of the
current implemention. Relying on this little-known side effect for
something like data safety sounds foolish.
Both of these approaches require root privileges, which some applications
do not have (nor should they need?) given that sync(2) is an unprivileged
operation.
This patch introduces a new system call syncfs(2) that takes an fd and
syncs only the file system it references. Maybe someday we can
$ sync /some/path
and not get
sync: ignoring all arguments
The syscall is motivated by comments by Al and Christoph at the last LSF.
syncfs(2) seems like an appropriate name given statfs(2).
A similar ioctl was also proposed a while back, see

In some cases during a threaded core dump not all the threads will have
a full register set. This happens when the signal causing the core dump
races with a thread exiting. The race happens when the exiting thread
has entered the kernel for the last time before the signal arrives, but
doesn't get far enough through the exit code to avoid being included
in the core dump.
So we get a thread included in the core dump which is never going to go
out to userspace again and only has a partial register set recorded
Normally we would catch each thread as it is about to go into userspace
and capture the full register set then.
However, this exiting thread is never going to go out to userspace
again, so we have no way to capture its full register set. It doesn't
really matter, though, as this is a thread which is effectively
already dead.
So instead of hitting a BUG() in this case (a really bad choice of
action in the first place), we use a poison value for the register
values.

This property, defined in the Open PIC binding, tells the kernel not to use
the reset bit in the global configuration register. Additionally, its
presence mandates that only sources which are actually used (i.e. appear in
the device tree) should have their VECPRI bits initialized.
Although, "pic-no-reset" can be used for the same use cases that
"protected-sources" is covering, the "protected-sources" implementation was
left completely intact. This is a more pragmatic approach as there are
already several existing systems which use protected sources. If
"pic-no-reset" *and* "protected-sources" are both used, however, then
"pic-no-reset" takes precedence in terms of the init behavior and the
sanity checks done by protected sources will still take place.

Commit b5d937de03 has a bug which causes
basically a NULL dereference in the PCI code during boot on ppc64
machines.
fetch_dev_dn() is called when dev->dev.of_node is NULL, so using that
as the starting point for the search makes no sense. It should instead
start from the device node of the PHB.

Commit 8d7718aa08 changed "int"
to "u32" in the prototypes but not the definition.
I missed this when I saw the patch go by on LKML.
We cast "u32 *" to "int *" since we are tying into the underlying
atomics framework, and atomic_t uses int as its value type.

According to intel CPU manual, every time PGD entry is changed in i386 PAE
mode, we need do a full TLB flush. Current code follows this and there is
comment for this too in the code.
But current code misses the multi-threaded case. A changed page table
might be used by several CPUs, every such CPU should flush TLB. Usually
this isn't a problem, because we prepopulate all PGD entries at process
fork. But when the process does munmap and follows new mmap, this issue
will be triggered.
When it happens, some CPUs keep doing page faults:

Current stack dump code scans entire stack and check each entry
contains a pointer to kernel code. If CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y it
could mark whether the pointer is valid or not based on value of
the frame pointer. Invalid entries could be preceded by '?' sign.
However this was not going to happen because scan start point
was always higher than the frame pointer so that they could not
meet.
Commit 9c0729dc80 ("x86: Eliminate bp argument from the stack
tracing routines") delayed bp acquisition point, so the bp was
read in lower frame, thus all of the entries were marked
invalid.
This patch fixes this by reverting above commit while retaining
stack_frame() helper as suggested by Frederic Weisbecker.
