This is to make kmem_cache_nodes of all SLUBs for new node when memory-hotadd is called. This fixes panic due to access NULL pointer at discard_slab() after memory hot-add. If pages on the new node available, slub can use it before making new

Due to silly typos, if the nfs versions are explicitly set, no NFSACL versions get enabled. Also improve an error message that would have made this bug a little easier to find. Signed-off-by: Neil Brown ### Diffstat output .

When 'repair' finds a block that is different one the various parts of the mirror. it is meant to write a chosen good version to the others. However it currently writes out the original data to each. The memcpy to make all the data the same is

If we are using the same version/fsid as a current filehandle, then there is no need to verify the the numbers are valid for this export, and they must be (we used them to find this export). This allows us to simplify the fsid selection code.

When recv_msg is called with a size of 0 and MSG_PEEK (and sunrpc/svcsock.c does), it is clear that we only interested in metadata (from/to addresses) and not the data, so don't do any checksum checking at this point. Leave that until the data is

Also PTRACE_OLDSETOPTIONS should be accepted, as done by kernel/ptrace.c and forced by binary compatibility. UML/32bit breaks because of this - since it is wise enough to use PTRACE_OLDSETOPTIONS to be binary compatible with 2.4 host kernels.
