2.6.18-mm3

[Andrew Morton]

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.18/2.6.18-mm3/

- Added Jeff's make-bogus-warnings-go-away tree to the -mm lineup, as
  git-gccbug.patch

- Francois Romieu is doing some qlogic driver maintenance - added his
  git-qla3xxx.patch to the -mm lineup.

- Some wireless-related crashes are hopefully fixed.  But if there are still
  wireless problems, be sure that you have the latest userspace tools.

- The recent spate of IRQ-allocation-related crashes on x86_64 is hopefully
  fixed.

- As far as we know, the MSI handling in -mm is now rock-solid.




Boilerplate:

- See the `hot-fixes' directory for any important updates to this patchset.

- To fetch an -mm tree using git, use (for example)

  git fetch git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git v2.6.16-rc2-mm1

- -mm kernel commit activity can be reviewed by subscribing to the
  mm-commits mailing list.

        echo "subscribe mm-commits" | mail majordomo@vger.kernel.org

- If you hit a bug in -mm and it is not obvious which patch caused it, it is
  most valuable if you can perform a bisection search to identify which patch
  introduced the bug.  Instructions for this process are at

        http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/bisecting-mm-trees.txt

  But beware that this process takes some time (around ten rebuilds and
  reboots), so consider reporting the bug first and if we cannot immediately
  identify the faulty patch, then perform the bisection search.

- When reporting bugs, please try to Cc: the relevant maintainer and mailing
  list on any email.

- When reporting bugs in this kernel via email, please also rewrite the
  email Subject: in some manner to reflect the nature of the bug.  Some
  developers filter by Subject: when looking for messages to read.

- Semi-daily snapshots of the -mm lineup are uploaded to
  ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/mm/ and are announced on
  the mm-commits list.

http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/badari2.bz2 is a rollup against 2.6.18
which omits the various zone changes.  Can you see if that also fails?

problems so far).

This is on the same x86_64 box which I reported the -mm2 boot problem. I 
have confirmed that CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO was on for the -mm2 oops as well 
as this one. I'll begin a bisection on this issue as well and post the 
results when finished.

Thanks, Steve.

You might well find this bisection lands you on origin.patch.  ie: a
mainline bug.  I note that David merged a few more xfrm fixes this morning.

So to confirm that, first test just origin.patch and if that fails, test
git-of-the-moment.  If that doesn't fail, they fixed it.

origin.patch from --m3 failed. Unfortunately so did a fresh clone of

Jeff: very nice! (I did this myself on a much smaller scale for the -rt 
patch, because it's just so lethal if some serious warning gets lost in 
the myriads of 'possible use of uninitialized' messages.)

A small suggestion: to give GCC folks a chance to actually fix this, 
could we actively annotate these places instead of working them around?
I.e., instead of:

        long cursor = 0;
        int error = 0;
-       void *new_mc;
+       void *new_mc = NULL;
        int cpu;
        cpumask_t old;

couldnt we do:

	void *new_mc __GCC_WARN_BUG;

and then do something like this in gcc.h:

 #ifdef CONFIG_ELIMINATE_BOGUS_GCC_WARNINGS
 # define __GCC_WARN_BUG = 0
 #else
 # define __GCC_WARN_BUG
 #endif

this both gives an in-source incentive for GCC folks to get rid of these 
bogus warnings (or remain shamed for eternity), and gives us the ability 
to control the presence of these workarounds (and the eventual ability 
to eliminate them in the future).

this would also mean we could merge your tree upstream without worrying 
about hiding gcc bugs.

There was a patch posted in the past, mentioned in the thread discussed 
my #gccbug branch, that permitted annotations with zero code size 
changes.  I think that sort of annotation approach would be preferred. 
It was something like

#define noinit_warning(x) \
	do { (void) (x) = (x); } while (0)

but given my memory, that's probably all wrong.

So, I agree that annotations are a good idea, but I'm not so sure that 
your proposed "= 0" approach is the best one.  Remember, we need to do 
this for multi-member structures, integers, and pointers, not just 
things easily assigned to zero.

I am not an expert in that area, but your stack trace made me curious.
Looking at the dis-assembly, line of code in question is:

	        if (likely(modemap[mode->encap] == NULL)) {

Register contents indicate that, its called as

	xfrm_register_mode(&xfrm4_tunnel_mode, AF_INET);
or
	xfrm_register_mode(&xfrm4_transport_mode, AF_INET);

(family is AF_INET).

The invalid deref is due to modemap = 0x7ff (RAX: 00000000000007ff)

Since its so easy to reproduce, can you add a printk before
this check to dump mode->encap and modemap, afinfo, family etc ?
Just curious ..

Not to mention the fact that "foo = 0" generates extra (probably
unnecessary) code to initialize foo, while "foo = foo" just shuts up
the gcc warning without affecting generated code.

I'm already somewhat unconfortable shutting up these gcc warnings at
all, since adding these annotations add one more thing that must be
maintained -- I feel it would be all-too-easy to change the logic of a
function in a way that introduces a bug, and then have the annotation
hide a "is used uninitialised" warning.

But I definitely feel we shouldn't make our object code even slightly
worse just to shut up the warnings.

Not all of the false positives are gcc bugs.

There are cases where it's technically impossible for gcc to figure out 
that a variable is always initialized.

What we'd need would be some -Wno-may-be-used-uninitialized gcc option 
that turns off the "may be may be used uninitialized" warnings but not 
the "is used uninitialized" warnings.

This would:
- give us a way to silence these warnings
- allow people to see the warnings if they want to
- not increase the maintenance overhead

Some of those warnings do indicate real bugs.

Some of the -Wmissing-prototypes warnings do also indicate real bugs.

But although I'm working on cleaning up the -Wmissing-prototypes 
warnings for a year or two, I doubt you'd be happy if we'd enable 
-Wmissing-prototypes now...

The simplest way given the current GCC feature-set is:

   #ifdef HIDE_GCC_FALSE_POSITIVES
   # define correct_init(x) x = x
   #else
   # define correct_init(x) x
   #endif

Then:

   int correct_init(arg);
   struct some_struct correct_init(foo);

Alternatively if only some struct member has problems and the rest  
are OK:

   struct some_struct foo;
   correct_init(foo.bar);

Is it so?
After applying the patch, the code would look like,
-----

		skt->status = au1x00_pcmcia_skt_state(skt);

		ret = pcmcia_register_socket(&skt->socket);
		if (ret)
			goto out_err;

out_err:
	flush_scheduled_work();
	ops->hw_shutdown(skt);
	while (i-- > 0) {
		struct au1000_pcmcia_socket *skt = PCMCIA_SOCKET(i);
		del_timer_sync(&skt->poll_timer);
		pcmcia_unregister_socket(&skt->socket);
		flush_scheduled_work();
		ops->hw_shutdown(skt);
		i--;
	}
	kfree(sinfo);
-----
The  first call to ops->shutdown(skt) would free the skt (of the
function scope). The internal skt to the loop is a placeholder to call
shutdown().
Or did I miss any point?

	for (i = 0; i < nr; i++) {
		struct au1000_pcmcia_socket *skt = PCMCIA_SOCKET(i); <-- 1st skt definition
<snip>
		ret = pcmcia_register_socket(&skt->socket);
		if (ret)
			goto out_err;

		WARN_ON(skt->socket.sock != i);

		add_timer(&skt->poll_timer);
	}
<snip>

out_err:
	flush_scheduled_work();
	ops->hw_shutdown(skt); <-- skt undeclared
	while (i-- > 0) {
		struct au1000_pcmcia_socket *skt = PCMCIA_SOCKET(i); <-- 2nd skt definition
		del_timer_sync(&skt->poll_timer);
		pcmcia_unregister_socket(&skt->socket);
		flush_scheduled_work();

I am sorry. I did not find this.
Please find the corrected patch.
Applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc6, rc7, 2.6.18, and 2.6.19-rc1

Om.
