The patch titled
     epoll: fix epoll's own poll
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     epoll-fix-own-poll.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

Subject: epoll: fix epoll's own poll
From: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org>

Fix a bug inside the epoll's f_op->poll() code, that returns POLLIN even
though there are no actual ready monitored fds.  The bug shows up if you
add an epoll fd inside another fd container (poll, select, epoll).

The problem is that callback-based wake ups used by epoll does not carry
(patches will follow, to fix this) any information about the events that
actually happened.  So the callback code, since it can't call the file*
->poll() inside the callback, chains the file* into a ready-list.

So, suppose you added an fd with EPOLLOUT only, and some data shows up on
the fd, the file* mapped by the fd will be added into the ready-list (via
wakeup callback).  During normal epoll_wait() use, this condition is
sorted out at the time we're actually able to call the file*'s
f_op->poll().

Inside the old epoll's f_op->poll() though, only a quick check
!list_empty(ready-list) was performed, and this could have led to
reporting POLLIN even though no ready fds would show up at a following
epoll_wait().  In order to correctly report the ready status for an epoll
fd, the ready-list must be checked to see if any really available fd+event
would be ready in a following epoll_wait().

Operation (calling f_op->poll() from inside f_op->poll()) that, like wake
ups, must be handled with care because of the fact that epoll fds can be
added to other epoll fds.
