Found a race in an audit of one of the pagemap_lru_lock breakups that appears to be common to all of them, but it's unclear whether it's the only one left. After the pagemap_lru_lock was broken up the pte_chain_freelist, which is global, was left naked. Apparently after I survived that one then one of the init_idle() races came out and I ran out of time on the machine.
Discovered in some additional testing that the incomplete gamma function for the chi^2 CDF had convergence problems when either a or x > 7, so it appears that will need the continued fraction expansion for that domain. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov CDF code is spewing complete garbage, and the other CDF's are on the back burner.
The queue is propagating things upward and downward and finding the right levels to put things at, but the stratified trees that are supposed to be what gets bubbled around still need to get plugged in. There appear to be some bugs with respect to using the right chain field at the right time with them. Basically when it's time to bubble the things down from one level to another, or when things need to be chained off each other by insertion in a tree of a deeper nesting level, something is getting the nesting level of the tree node wrong.
Found two more classes of bugs in another audit of the waitqueue code. One is that the leader against which other waiters on an object are chained is not actually considered an element of the list by the list_head routines, but rather only a sentinel, which caused the reference to it to be lost, and the other is that some of the code assuming it had a unique reference to the queue wasn't actually removing it from the comb list.
Some more people I've never heard of chimed in on the hashing thread and put in a few words to perpetuate the confusion between "random" and "uniformly distributed". This is never going to end. I didn't actually bother answering the post because I'm going to hold out until I have some hashtable analysis code others can use to reproduce my results and speak in numbers. As long as it's rooted in terminology and anecdotes no one will ever admit what's going on.
