On umount two event will be dispatched to watcher:
1: inotify_dev_queue_event(.., IN_UNMOUNT,..)
2: remove_watch(watch, dev)
->inotify_dev_queue_event(.., IN_IGNORED, ..)
But if watcher has IN_ONESHOT bit set then the watcher will be released
inside first event. Which result in accessing invalid object later. IMHO
it is not pure regression. This bug wasn't triggered while initial
inotify interface testing phase because of another bug in IN_ONESHOT
handling logic :)

inotify: fix check for one-shot watches before destroying them
As the IN_ONESHOT bit is never set when an event is sent we must check it
in the watch's mask and not in the event's mask.
TESTCASE:
mkdir mnt
mount -ttmpfs none mnt
mkdir mnt/d
./inotify mnt/d&
umount mnt ## << lockup or crash here
TESTSOURCE:
/* gcc -oinotify inotify.c */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/inotify.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
char buf[1024];
struct inotify_event *ie;
char *p;
int i;
ssize_t l;
p = argv[1];
i = inotify_init();
inotify_add_watch(i, p, ~0);
l = read(i, buf, sizeof(buf));
printf("read %d bytes\n", l);
ie = (struct inotify_event *) buf;
printf("event mask: %d\n", ie->mask);
return 0;

Since commit 2f007e74bb, do_pages_stat()
gets the page address from user-space and puts the corresponding status
back while holding the mmap_sem for read. There is no need to hold
mmap_sem there while some page-faults may occur.
This patch adds a temporary address and status buffer so as to only
hold mmap_sem while working on these kernel buffers. This is
implemented by extracting do_pages_stat_array() out of do_pages_stat().

Add a call to cancel_work_sync() in fbcon_exit() to cancel any pending
work in the fbcon workqueue.
The current implementation of fbcon_exit() sets the fbcon workqueue
function info->queue.func to NULL, but does not assure that there is no
work pending when it does so. On occasion, depending on system timing,
there will still be pending work in the queue when fbcon_exit() is
called. This results in a null pointer deference when run_workqueue()
tries to call the queue's work function.

Currently, lru_add_drain_all() has two version.
(1) use schedule_on_each_cpu()
(2) don't use schedule_on_each_cpu()
Gerald Schaefer reported it doesn't work well on SMP (not NUMA) S390
machine.
offline_pages() calls lru_add_drain_all() followed by drain_all_pages().
While drain_all_pages() works on each cpu, lru_add_drain_all() only runs
on the current cpu for architectures w/o CONFIG_NUMA. This let us run
into the BUG_ON(!PageBuddy(page)) in __offline_isolated_pages() during
memory hotplug stress test on s390. The page in question was still on the
pcp list, because of a race with lru_add_drain_all() and drain_all_pages()
on different cpus.
Actually, Almost machine has CONFIG_UNEVICTABLE_LRU=y. Then almost machine use
(1) version lru_add_drain_all although the machine is UP.
Then this ifdef is not valueable.

commit 1f7c14c62c
Author: Mingming Cao <cmm@us.ibm.com>
Date: Thu Oct 9 12:50:59 2008 -0400
percpu counter: clean up percpu_counter_sum_and_set()
Before this patch we had the following:
percpu_counter_sum(): return the percpu_counter's value
percpu_counter_sum_and_set(): return the percpu_counter's value, copying
that value into the central value and zeroing the per-cpu counters before
returning.
After this patch, percpu_counter_sum_and_set() has gone, and
percpu_counter_sum() gets the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set()
functionality.
Problem is, as Eric points out, the old percpu_counter_sum_and_set()
functionality was racy and wrong. It zeroes out counters on "other" cpus,
without holding any locks which will prevent races agaist updates from
those other CPUS.
This patch reverts 1f7c14c62c. This means
that percpu_counter_sum_and_set() still has the race, but
percpu_counter_sum() does not.
Note that this is not a simple revert - ext4 has since started using
percpu_counter_sum() for its dirty_blocks counter as well.
Note that this revert patch changes percpu_counter_sum() semantics.
Before the patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will bring the counter's
central counter mostly up-to-date, so a following percpu_counter_read()
will return a close value.
After this patch, a call to percpu_counter_sum() will leave the counter's
central accumulator unaltered, so a subsequent call to
percpu_counter_read() can now return a significantly inaccurate result.
If there is any code in the tree which was introduced after
e8ced39d5e was merged, and which depends
upon the new percpu_counter_sum() semantics, that code will break.

Since applying the fix suggested by the errata (disabling MSI), we've had
issues with interrupts being stuck on despite IIR being 0 on GM965 hardware.
Most reporters of the issue have confirmed that turning MSI back on fixes
things, and given the difficulties experienced in getting reliable MSI working
on Linux, it's believable that the errata was about software issues and not

While 440037287c "[PATCH] switch all filesystems over to
d_obtain_alias" removed some cases where fh_to_dentry() and
fh_to_parent() could return NULL, there are still a few NULL returns
left in individual filesystems. Thus it was a mistake for that commit
to remove the handling of NULL returns in the callers.
Revert those parts of 440037287c which removed the NULL handling.
(We could, alternatively, modify all implementations to return -ESTALE
instead of NULL, but that proves to require fixing a number of
filesystems, and in some cases it's arguably more natural to return
NULL.)
