Bug#497562: Patch from Red Hat
I found this related information at Red Hat EL 4.8's RHSA-2009:0331-14.
The trouble caused by race conditions.

patchname:linux-2.6.9-fs-fix-it-already-cleared-for-block-errors.patch
linux/fs/buffer.c::void unlock_buffer is :
{
+ smp_mb__before_clear_bit();
clear_bit_unlock(BH_Lock, bh-b_state);
smp_mb__after_clear_bit();
wake_up_bit(bh-b_state, BH_Lock);
}
They said,
a misplaced memory barrier at unlock_buffer() could lead to a concurrent
h_refcounter update which produced a reference counter leak and, later, a
double free in ext3_xattr_release_block(). Consequent to the double free,
ext3 reported an error
ext3_free_blocks_sb: bit already cleared for block [block number]
and mounted itself as read-only. With this update, the memory barrier is
now placed before the buffer head lock bit, forcing the write order and
preventing the double free. (BZ#476533)

Missing kernel vserver-sparc64-smp?
Hello, Sun Microsystems has recently donated a very nice machine to my FOSS project (http://www.officeshots.org). It has four TI UltraSparc IIIi processors and 8 GB RAM. At the moment it is running Debian Lenny with the sparc64-smp kernel. I want to run multiple virtual machines on it but there aren't many solutions available on sparc64. I found one strange thing though. Debian Lenny ships with SMP and uniprocessor kernels for sparc64, but the vserver enabled kernel is only shipped as uniprocessor, not as an SMP kernel. Here's what I have available according to Aptitude: p linux-image-2.6-sparc64 - Linux 2.6 image on uniprocessor 64-bit UltraSPARC i linux-image-2.6-sparc64-smp - Linux 2.6 image on multiprocessor 64-bit UltraSPARC p linux-image-2.6-vserver-sparc64 - Linux 2.6 image on uniprocessor 64-bit UltraSPARC, Linux-VServer support Why is vserver only shipped as uniprocessor? Also, why are there separate smp and uniprocessor kernels at all for sparc64? I was under the impression that smp_alternatives has made this practice obsolete since Debian Etch, or does smp_alternatives only work on x86 and x86-64?

Build problems on Squeeze
Hello! I've two identical Lenovo X200 here, one with Debian Lenny, one with Debian Squezze. For some days, all kernels built on the squezze machine instantly reboot at (about half a second after loaded by grub) bootup.

Moreover in some cases it even returns EINVAL instead of ENOSYS. This make userland software like glibc or coreutils unable to detect that the syscall does not exist and implement a fallback, which leads to breakage like 'touch' not working anymore. This is especially true for lenny running with a kernel from etch, and will become more true with sid with a kernel from lenny as the glibc version increases.

Bug#520009: ext3 'data=foo' on root fs is broken
initramfs-tools should not pick up data= from /etc/fstab, but it does not. [maximilian attems] too many negations in one line, what are you trying to say? Yes, I meant to say: initramfs-tools should pick up data= from /etc/fstab, but it does not. The workaround is 'rootflags=data=foo' on the kernel command line. how is rootflags an workaround that has always been the correspondent bootparam? It is a workaround, because it causes the system to boot normally, i.e., it successfully works around the problem that the initramfs does not pass the correct mount option. The consequence is that the root fs cannot be remounted rw: EXT3-fs: cannot change data mode on remount mount: / not mounted already, or bad option are you saying that rootflags, doesn't work!?? No, sorry, I meant: this is the consequence of the bug, if you do not apply the workaround (to menu.lst or whatever). -- Peter Samuelson | org-tld!p12n!peter | http://p12n.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

seeking kernel testers
hey, We have a kernel security update prepared for lenny that contains a significant amount of arch-specific code changes.
