Since this change, lo_release() calls loop_clr_fd() with bdev = NULL:

commit bb21488482bd36eae6b30b014d93619063773fd4
Author: Al Viro 
Date:   Sun Mar 2 09:29:48 2008 -0500

[PATCH] switch loop

ioctl doesn't need BKL here

Signed-off-by: Al Viro 

Most actions in loop_clr_fd() that use bdev were made conditional on
bdev != NULL, with the exception of:

if (max_part > 0)
ioctl_by_bdev(bdev, BLKRRPART, 0);

So I think that this if() needs to test bdev as well.

Ben.

Bug#533316: Bug persist in 2.6.30

[Jakub Lucký]

Hi there

this bug persists in 2.6.30-1-686 kernel

Jakub Lucký

Bug#533292: linux-image-2.6.30-1-686 (sid), KMS enabled: black

[Adrian Glaubitz]

Hi Jos,

KMS is still under heavy development and especially the Intel
X.org-driver is experiencing a total overhaul at the moment. The guys
at Intel state that there are dozens of possible combinations
regarding drivers/kernel/accel-modes and graphics hardware that noone
can really tell for sure that your specific combination will work
without any trouble.

In any case, you will need the latest xorg-driver for intel
(xf86-video-intel), the latest DRM and mesa. You can get everything
here:



I have a desktop machine with Intel GMA-3000 and always up-to-date
Debian unstable and KMS works very well with 2.6.30 (Vanilla-Kernel)
and the above stuff from the X.org git. So if you really want to have
KMS you should build everything yourself or wait until the whole
software is mature enough to be uploaded to unstable.



Adrian

Bug#534880: linux-image-2.6.26-2-xen-686: domU hang and are unresponsive

[Vagrant Cascadian]

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-xen-686
Version: 2.6.26-15lenny3
Severity: important

we've been using xen on debian extensively for the last couple years, and it's
overall been great for freegeek!

unfortunately, in the last couple weeks, i've been experiencing some issues
with some domU machines crashing on lenny xen dom0.

at some point, the domU just hangs, and "xm console" is unresponsive. still
able to ping the domU server, but not log in via ssh, and existing ssh
connections stop working. "xm reboot" and "xm shutdown" are useless.
eventually, we "xm destroy" it, and it continues to work for another 1-3 days.

load on the dom0 doesn't seem high in any way. load levels on the domU seem
reasonable (usually less than 1-2 with a 2 processor system).

nothing obvious in the dom1 or domU syslog entries, in /var/log/xend/*.log. 

we've seen this happen on 3 separate dom0 servers, with 3 separate domU xen
servers. other domU servers running on the same dom0 continue to work fine.

it's happening on two lenny xen servers, one of which was cleanly installed as
a lenny server post-release, one of which was upgraded from etch, and one of
which is just etch running the lenny xen kernel.

i noticed that we upgraded the kernel to the current version around june 2nd
(though the problems didn't really start till mid-june), which seems to have a
xen-specific changelog entry:

  [ Ian Campbell ]
  * xen: Fix missing check of interrupted code's code selector
(CVE-2009-1758)

no idea if that could possibly be relevent. i might try running an older kernel
and see if that stabalizes it at all.

i know this isn't much to go on for a bug report, but it's been kind of
crippling and i don't really know what to do. any suggestions on how to get
more useful troubleshooting information would be greatly appreciated.

live well,
  vagrant

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

Distributed directory ../linux-headers-2.6.30-1-686/include misses many

In package linux-headers-2.6.26-1-686 were symlinks to common

For example, symlink

../../../linux-headers-2.6.26-1-common/include/linux/mm.h exists in 
respective package, but there no such link in this one.


Same for include/asm-x86/* files, they can only be obtained from kernel

Not a bug.  Fix the build process for your OOT module.

Not a bug.  Fix your OOT module to use  only.

It's not a security bug - the kernel fails to boot, making the system
entirely secure :-).  In any case the bug has already been fixed.

Bug#534867: [linux-headers-2.6.30-1-686] Missed headers

[Grigory Ivanov]

Package: linux-headers-2.6.30-1-686
Version: 2.6.30-1
Severity: serious

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

Distributed directory ../linux-headers-2.6.30-1-686/include misses many 
subdirectories and .h files, so some kernel modules cannot be compiled.
In package linux-headers-2.6.26-1-686 were symlinks to common 
files/directories. Same should be in this package too.

For example, symlink
/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.26-1-686/include/linux/mm.h -> 
../../../linux-headers-2.6.26-1-common/include/linux/mm.h exists in 
respective package, but there no such link in this one.


Same for include/asm-x86/* files, they can only be obtained from kernel 
source package, but they should be part of this package too.

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-xen-amd64
Version: 2.6.26-15
Severity: important

Hi,

It seems the patch in #518921 is not being applied to the xen variant
of the amd64 kernel:

r...@akuma:~# set -x
r...@akuma:~# cat test.c; ./test; echo $?
+ cat test.c
/* gcc -o int80-badsys -m32 -g int80-badsys.c
   Run on x86-64 kernel.
   Note to reproduce the bug you need auditd never to have started.  */

#include 
#include 

int
main (void)
{
  long res;
  asm ("int $0x80" : "=a" (res) : "0" (9));
  printf ("bad syscall returns %ld\n", res);
  return res != -ENOSYS;
}

+ ./test
bad syscall returns 9
+ echo 1
1

This causes i386 cowbuilders to fail when running under domU, which is
problematic, as it is generating false build failures for me with my
continuous integration server project for debian packaging.

Please apply the patch to #518921 to the Xen amd64 variant.

William

Author: Pavel Emelyanov 
Date:   Fri Apr 3 17:13:14 2009 +0400

ptrace: ban ptracing of a container init from inside the container

Current ptrace engine suffers from strange problems, one of which
is described in bug #1222 - init results in T state after incorrect
tracer detach.

Fixing it is not that easy, but since ptracing init was never alowed
before it's OK to ban this (for a while?).

Package: linux-image-2.6-r5k-cobalt
Version: 2.6.26+17+lenny1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Debian kernel team!

I use the kernel on a Cobalt Qube2 with 256 MB of RAM and a 200GB harddisk as 
my home/web-server. 
I would like to use an PCI scsi host adapter to connect a scsi tape drive. 
Unfortunately there are no kernel modules compiled for the available 
symbios-logic or adaptec controllers.
Could you please include modules for aic7xxx and 53c8xx if they compile on this 
platform?

Thank you very much in advance and keep up the good work!

Christian

commit 7e0f90d2f2d221e66d64e61ee3c4b3b83c2545de
Author: Konstantin Khlebnikov 
Date:   Fri Mar 27 15:01:41 2009 +0300

cfq: revalidate cached async queue

Async queues are stored on struct cfq_bc_data
and are cached on per-process struct cfq_io_context.

The cached queue may be invalid due to io_page beancounter
driven io-context switch.

So, cfq_io_context gets cached queue, but corresponding
cfq_bc and user_beancounter may be already destroyed -- all
this leads to oops at get_beancounter in cfq_set_request.

Add check for async queue owner and refill cache if it invalid.

The oops itself is like this:

Yet one more important fix while we're at it.

This fixes udev in a container, OpenVZ bug #1195. Not a security fix but 
quite important functionality issue since many distros rely on udev by 
default nowdays.

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686-bigmem
Version: 2.6.26-9
Severity: normal

The xen block front device driver does not implement the CDROM_GET_CAPABILITY
ioctl for virtual cd-rom devices. This prevents udev from correctly identifying
such devices and creating a suitable /dev/cdrom symbolic link.

Upstream changeset 440a01a7f46742400c74d9d346118523e81d188b (plus
62aa0054da220b8bbe6f23c0eb1d97a99005d0b3 for a small cleanup) implement this
ioctl.

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686
Version: 2.6.26-13lenny2
Severity: important
Tags: patch


Overtime any system with NFS usage grinds to a crawl. While root or /usr on
NFS are most affected the same problem should affect other NFS usage. The
symptoms are extremely high system load, taking 20 minutes to open/close
applications, taking half a minute to create the menu on right click in KDE,
becoming unusable for 5 minutes while rebuilding menus in KDE, etc.

This is reported multiple times versus other packages elsewhere (mostly KDE
due to the idiotic way it builds its menus).

The reason seems to be: 
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git&a=commitdiff&h=23918b03060f6e572168fdde1798a905679d2e06

discussed here: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0812.2/00418.html

On the positive side this made me find out that a whole bunch of programs
are coded with the left foot. This patch needs to be retrofitted
into the kernel to make it usable again for anyone using NFS and especially
diskless clients.

Otherwise, nfs in current kernel is unusable. After waiting for 30 minutes for 
tex to 
update its map on an otherwise fast machine I downgraded all of my diskless 
clients to 
2.6.18

Fixes oops at first IO with CONFIG_BC_IO_SCHED=n.

The cfq_set_request wants to get ub by cfqq->cfq_bc->ub_iopriv,

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-686
Version: 2.6.26-15
Severity: important


Wireless Function key works when asus_acpi module is unloaded but not when it 
is loaded. When the module loads I notice this from 
dmesg:

[  744.363332] Asus Laptop ACPI Extras version 0.30
[  744.371332]   BSTS called, 0x9f7f returned
[  744.371332]   unsupported model U3S, trying default values
[  744.371332]   send /proc/acpi/dsdt to the developers

It seems that the fact the module doesn't have support for my laptop (U3S) 
might be what is causing the acpi-support scripts to 
fail.

I guess in newer kernels this is probably already supported?

Here are some tests I did while monitoring the LED lights and ACPI events with 
acpi_listen.






u3s:~# acpi_listen 
hotkey ATKD 005e 
hotkey ATKD 007d 




acpi_listen shows:
hotkey ATKD 005e 0001
hotkey ATKD 007d 0001




acpi_listen shows:
hotkey ATKD 005e 0002
hotkey ATKD 007d 0002



u3s:~# modprobe -r asus_acpi

acpi_listen has no new output


I can get on wireless networks now.


acpi_listen has no new output




acpi_listen has no new output





acpi_listen show no new output




acpi_listen shows no new output




In addition to the Fn + F2 key to turn off the wireless/bluetooth there is also 
a switch on the left side of the laptop which has 
largely the same effect/behavior as using the FN + F2 key.

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-686-bigmem
Version: 2.6.26-15

Hello,

The Linux kernel sources upon which
linux-image-2.6.26-2-686-bigmem is based are suffering from a
bug, which only affects the (relatively rare) "summit" SMP
architecture. It is found in IBM xSeries servers such as the 
x440 or x445.

On these servers, linux-image-2.6.26-2-686-bigmem only correctly
identifies and uses one CPU, regardless of the number of CPUs 
actually installed.

The bug is documented and resolved on linux-kernel:

http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0807.3/0493.html

The patch responsible for the resolution is the following:

--- a/include/asm-x86/mach-summit/mach_apic.h 2008-07-24 18:06:39.0 
-0700
+++ b/include/asm-x86/mach-summit/mach_apic.h 2008-07-24 18:09:29.0 
-0700
@@ -122,7 +122,7 @@ static inline physid_mask_t ioapic_phys_

 static inline physid_mask_t apicid_to_cpu_present(int apicid)
 {
- return physid_mask_of_physid(0);
+ return physid_mask_of_physid(apicid);
 }


I report the bug against a lenny kernel, as I don't have any such system 
running 
testing or unstable. The current linux kernel source in unstable, 
linux-2.6_2.6.29-5,
appears to have the file structure reorganized. The relevant file appears to be
arch/x86/include/asm/summit/apic.h, and the bug appears still to be present: 
apicid_to_cpu_present still returns physid_mask_of_physid(0) instead of 
(apicid).

However, currently I cannot test whether the fix is still relevant.

If it is of help, I could try to boot an unpatched linux-2.6_2.6.29-5 kernel on 
a 
summit machine and compare the number of identified CPUs with a patched 
linux-2.6_2.6.29-5
kernel.

In any case, it could probably be a good idea to include the fix in the next 
lenny 
kernel update, as it does render those multi-CPU machines relatively useless, 
and
the fix does not affect anyone else.



With kind regards,

Severity: important

When I connect my Qstarz BT-Q1000X GPS (using a MTK II chip) via USB on
lenny, I get:

| cdc_acm: Zero length descriptor references
| cdc_acm: probe of 2-1:1.0 failed with error -22

This was fixed by adding a simple quirk to the driver:

The 2.6.29 kernel in unstable has this patch and works fine.  I'll
check if this patch works with 2.6.26 and apply the patch to SVN if
it does.

Package: linux-source-2.6.26
Version: 2.6.26-13
Severity: important


Hardware involved:

RealTek RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller


Debugging info:

Module r8169 allows the card to operate fine, however close inspection
of the interface statistics immediately show _lots_ of dropped packages
while completely ignoring multicast frames (after a couple of hours of
use in an otherwise quiescent network, I had 2 and a half _billion_
dropped RX packets). I noticed the error while trying to make Avahi work,
and then tested other multicast applications to no avail. So I fired up
tcpdump, and once the interface was set into promiscuous mode, the
multicast packets were properly handled (and the dropped package count
stopped for that little while too).

Using an alternate interface everything works perfectly.

I'm reporting the problem on i686 but it also happens with amd64.

I believe this is a known bug for 2.6.26 that has been fixed in 2.6.27.
I will build a custom kernel and give feedback as soon as I can.

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686
Version: 2.6.26-13lenny2
Severity: important
Tags: patch


Overtime any system with NFS usage grinds to a crawl. While root or /usr on
NFS are most affected the same problem should affect other NFS usage. The
symptoms are extremely high system load, taking 20 minutes to open/close
applications, taking half a minute to create the menu on right click in KDE,
becoming unusable for 5 minutes while rebuilding menus in KDE, etc.

This is reported multiple times versus other packages elsewhere (mostly KDE
due to the idiotic way it builds its menus).

The reason seems to be: 
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git&a=commitdiff&h=23918b03060f6e572168fdde1798a905679d2e06

discussed here: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0812.2/00418.html

On the positive side this made me find out that a whole bunch of programs
are coded with the left foot. This patch needs to be retrofitted
into the kernel to make it usable again for anyone using NFS and especially
diskless clients.

Otherwise, nfs in current kernel is unusable. After waiting for 30 minutes for 
tex to 
update its map on an otherwise fast machine I downgraded all of my diskless 
clients to

Severity: important

Phoronix benchmarked kernels from 2.6.24-29:
"When it came to the SQLite performance, a serious performance
regression began with the Linux 2.6.26 kernel and ended with the Linux
2.6.29 release. Normally it required 27~28 seconds to perform 12,500
database insertions using SQLite, but with the Linux 2.6.26 through
2.6.28 kernel releases it took 109 seconds! Fortunately, this regression
is now fixed."

Subject: [PATCH] block: revert part of 18ce3751ccd488c78d3827e9f6bf54e6322676fb

The above commit added WRITE_SYNC and switched various places to using
that for committing writes that will be waited upon immediately after
submission. However, this causes a performance regression with AS and CFQ
for ext3 at least, since sync_dirty_buffer() will submit some writes with
WRITE_SYNC while ext3 has sumitted others dependent writes without the sync
flag set. This causes excessive anticipation/idling in the IO scheduler
because sync and async writes get interleaved, causing a big performance
regression for the below test case (which is meant to simulate sqlite
like behaviour).

*** Please type your report below this line ***

I get errors shown in the kernel log and can't access the CD-ROM.
I think this not a Debian specific problem because I have this error
with a "stock" 2.6.26.3 kernel (from ftp.kernel.org) too. But I hadn't
this error with a 2.6.25 kernel.
Could it be a timing problem in sata_nv?

Package: debian-installer
Severity: important

S390 boot fails (sometimes just after detecting memory, sometimes after
detecting devices) on z/VM 5.2 and a Flex-ES machine.

Since there are reports of d-i working on z9 boxes, I suspect the issue
is that the kernel is built to exploit later System z functionality.  At
least for d-i the basic 31-bit-no-frills architecture should be selected
as the s390 kernel (and basic 64-bit for s390x, e.g. z900), with options
for kernels that exploit later additions to the architecture for
installation (ideally based on detected machine type).

The hardware: A Plextor PX-810SA DVD-writer on a AsRock K8Upgrade-NF3 
motherboard.
With lenny kernel 2.6.26-2-686 syslog is spammed with tons of messages saying
"ata2: EH complete" each two seconds (or so). This doesn't happen when using
backports kernel 2.6.29-bpo.2-686 or backports etch kernel 2.6.22-2-k7.
Some websearches revealed that this appears to be an issue with the sata_nv
driver (e.g. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/269652),
at least I suspect the problems described there are as same as here.
Please send me a note if any additional information is required.

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-openvz-amd64
Version: 2.6.26-15lenny2
Tags: lenny,ipv6

IPv6 does not work in OpenVZ containers when hardware node is using the 
linux-image-2.6.26-2-openvz-amd64 kernel: containers are unable to reach 
any IPv6 host other than himself and the hardware node.


This does not affect the IPv6 connectivity of the hardware node itself, 
only hosted containers.


Booting the hardware node with the Debian-Systs 2.6.18 "Fortezza" kernel 
(linux-image-2.6.18-14-fza-amd64, version 028stab056.1dso1), without 
changing anything else, restores proper IPv6 functionlality in 
containers, so the issue seems kernel or kernel-version related.


This bug has been filed on the OpenVZ bug tracker:
http://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1287

Test setup is:
- Debian Lenny hardware node
- Debian Etch, Lenny and CentOS containers
- containers use venet devices
- IPv6 forwarding is globally enabled (/sbin/sysctl -q -w 
net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1), and hardware node public ethernet 
device is statically IPv6-configured

thanks for having reported upstream, to enable ipv6 one has to:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/proxy_ndp

and for each VE :

echo ip -6 neigh add proxy $IPV6 dev eth0;


thus closing.

Bug#533894: initramfs-tools: add support for virtio modules for netbooting

[Daniel Weuthen]

So kernel/drivers/block is considered only if using MODULES=most but
not when using MODULES=netboot. The only virtio file that is copied
at all is virtio_pci from the base class. So both virtio_net *and*
virtio_blk are missing.
   


   

please show on a qemu boot that virtio_block is really needed.
other then that this seems speculation.
 


Huh? I was just answering regarding your 'ok for virtio_blk and
virtio_net' and your statement that virtio_blk would be already
included in the initrd (which isn't the case when using
MODULES=netboot).

Bcc-ing Daniel Weuthen who has an according setup to test.
Daniel, can you please verify whether adding just virtio_net
to the initrd is enough for your usecase.
   
sorry for the delay in my reaction. I had to social engineer re-access 
to my setup, which runs at my old employer ;-)


for a working netboot with virtio nic the following modules are required:

* virtio
* virtio_pci (although virtio_net has no dependency entry for this 
module, it is mandatory for nearly all other virtio module)

* virtio_ring (virtio_pci depends on it)
* virtio_net

virtio_blk is definitely NOT required for netboot, as it provides access 
to local block devices only.

other virtio modules like virtio_ballon are also not needed.

regards
daniel

Bug#532005: this seems related to my issue

[Andrei Popescu]

Hello,

Until 2.6.29-2-amd64 my laptop was making a special sound (two system 
beeps in rapid succession) when plugging/unplugging the power cord. This 
sound would work whether the pcspkr module was loaded or not (which 
would stop any other system beeps), but can be disabled by muting the 
"Beep" control in alsamixer. It also works during POST or at the grub 
menu.

With 2.6.30-1-amd64 this works only a few seconds into the boot sequence 
when it stops completely and no loading/unloading of modules or 
mutin/unmuting of channels will bring it back. This seems to be related 
to this

$ dmesg | grep Beep
[6.234499] input: HDA Digital PCBeep as 
/devices/pci:00/:00:1b.0/input/input10

(I see the submitter has the same thing in his dmesg)

which doesn't show up at all if I boot 2.6.29-2-amd64. Also, the system 
beep has a much higher pitch now (very annoying).

Is this a known regression?

Regards,
Andrei
