Alan Stern 108d51a571 [PATCH] usbfs: private mutex for open, release, and remove
The usbfs code doesn't provide sufficient mutual exclusion among open,
release, and remove.  Release vs. remove is okay because they both
acquire the device lock, but open is not exclusive with either one.  All
three routines modify the udev->filelist linked list, so they must not
run concurrently.

Apparently someone gave this a minimum amount of thought in the past by
explicitly acquiring the BKL at the start of the usbdev_open routine.
Oddly enough, there's a comment pointing out that locking is unnecessary
because chrdev_open already has acquired the BKL.

But this ignores the point that the files in /proc/bus/usb/* are not
char device files; they are regular files and so they don't get any
special locking.  Furthermore it's necessary to acquire the same lock in
the release and remove routines, which the code does not do.

Yet another problem arises because the same file_operations structure is
accessible through both the /proc/bus/usb/* and /dev/usb/usbdev* file
nodes.  Even when one of them has been removed, it's still possible for
userspace to open the other.  So simple locking around the individual
remove routines is insufficient; we need to lock the entire
usb_notify_remove_device notifier chain.

Rather than rely on the BKL, this patch (as723) introduces a new private
mutex for the purpose.  Holding the BKL while invoking a notifier chain
doesn't seem like a good idea.

NeilBrown 3b076a9455 [PATCH] md: check bio address after mapping through partitions.
Partitions are not limited to live within a device.  So
we should range check after partition mapping.

Note that 'maxsector' was being used for two different things.  I have
split off the second usage into 'old_sector' so that maxsector can be
still be used for it's primary usage later in the function.

James Morris d0239f35c7 [PATCH] IPV6: fix lockup via /proc/net/ip6_flowlabel [CVE-2006-5619]
There's a bug in the seqfile handling for /proc/net/ip6_flowlabel, where,
after finding a flowlabel, the code will loop forever not finding any
further flowlabels, first traversing the rest of the hash bucket then just
looping.

This patch fixes the problem by breaking after the hash bucket has been
traversed.

Note that this bug can cause lockups and oopses, and is trivially invoked
by an unpriveleged user.

Martin Bligh 1406fd4e98 [PATCH] Use min of two prio settings in calculating distress for reclaim
If try_to_free_pages / balance_pgdat are called with a gfp_mask specifying
GFP_IO and/or GFP_FS, they will reclaim the requisite number of pages, and the
reset prev_priority to DEF_PRIORITY (or to some other high (ie: unurgent)
value).

However, another reclaimer without those gfp_mask flags set (say, GFP_NOIO)
may still be struggling to reclaim pages.  The concurrent overwrite of
zone->prev_priority will cause this GFP_NOIO thread to unexpectedly cease
deactivating mapped pages, thus causing reclaim difficulties.

Fix this is to key the distress calculation not off zone->prev_priority, but
also take into account the local caller's priority by using
min(zone->prev_priority, sc->priority)

Martin Bligh 252287f4e8 [PATCH] vmscan: Fix temp_priority race
The temp_priority field in zone is racy, as we can walk through a reclaim
path, and just before we copy it into prev_priority, it can be overwritten
(say with DEF_PRIORITY) by another reclaimer.

The same bug is contained in both try_to_free_pages and balance_pgdat, but
it is fixed slightly differently.  In balance_pgdat, we keep a separate
priority record per zone in a local array.  In try_to_free_pages there is
no need to do this, as the priority level is the same for all zones that we
reclaim from.

Impact of this bug is that temp_priority is copied into prev_priority, and
setting this artificially high causes reclaimers to set distress
artificially low.  They then fail to reclaim mapped pages, when they are,
in fact, under severe memory pressure (their priority may be as low as 0).
This causes the OOM killer to fire incorrectly.

From: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org>

__zone_reclaim() isn't modifying zone->prev_priority.  But zone->prev_priority
is used in the decision whether or not to bring mapped pages onto the inactive
list.  Hence there's a risk here that __zone_reclaim() will fail because
zone->prev_priority ir large (ie: low urgency) and lots of mapped pages end up
stuck on the active list.

Fix that up by decreasing (ie making more urgent) zone->prev_priority as
__zone_reclaim() scans the zone's pages.

This bug perhaps explains why ZONE_RECLAIM_PRIORITY was created.  It should be
possible to remove that now, and to just start out at DEF_PRIORITY?

Trond Myklebust 0f899fb74e [PATCH] NFS: nfs_lookup - don't hash dentry when optimising away the lookup
If the open intents tell us that a given lookup is going to result in a,
exclusive create, we currently optimize away the lookup call itself. The
reason is that the lookup would not be atomic with the create RPC call, so
why do it in the first place?

A problem occurs, however, if the VFS aborts the exclusive create operation
after the lookup, but before the call to create the file/directory: in this
case we will end up with a hashed negative dentry in the dcache that has
never been looked up.
Fix this by only actually hashing the dentry once the create operation has
been successfully completed.

David Miller 54a177028b [PATCH] SPARC64: Fix PCI memory space root resource on Hummingbird.
For Hummingbird PCI controllers, we should create the root
PCI memory space resource as the full 4GB area, and then
allocate the IOMMU DMA translation window out of there.

The old code just assumed that the IOMMU DMA translation base
to the top of the 4GB area was unusable.  This is not true on
many systems such as SB100 and SB150, where the IOMMU DMA
translation window sits at 0xc0000000->0xdfffffff.

So what would happen is that any device mapped by the firmware
at the top section 0xe0000000->0xffffffff would get remapped
by Linux somewhere else leading to all kinds of problems and
boot failures.

While we're here, report more cases of OBP resource assignment
conflicts.  The only truly valid ones are ROM resource conflicts.

Jeff Garzik 97b601402b [PATCH] ISDN: fix drivers, by handling errors thrown by ->readstat()
This is a particularly ugly on-failure bug, possibly security, since the
lack of error handling here is covering up another class of bug: failure to
handle copy_to_user() return values.

The I4L API function ->readstat() returns an integer, and by looking at
several existing driver implementations, it is clear that a negative return
value was meant to indicate an error.

Given that several drivers already return a negative value indicating an
errno-style error, the current code would blindly accept that [negative]
value as a valid amount of bytes read.  Obvious damage ensues.

Correcting ->readstat() handling to properly notice errors fixes the
existing code to work correctly on error, and enables future patches to
more easily indicate errors during operation.

Thomas Gleixner 9140a25cbe [PATCH] posix-cpu-timers: prevent signal delivery starvation
The integer divisions in the timer accounting code can round the result
down to 0.  Adding 0 is without effect and the signal delivery stops.

Clamp the division result to minimum 1 to avoid this.

Problem was reported by Seongbae Park <spark@google.com>, who provided
also an inital patch.

Roland sayeth:

  I have had some more time to think about the problem, and to reproduce it
  using Toyo's test case.  For the record, if my understanding of the problem
  is correct, this happens only in one very particular case.  First, the
  expiry time has to be so soon that in cputime_t units (usually 1s/HZ ticks)
  it's < nthreads so the division yields zero.  Second, it only affects each
  thread that is so new that its CPU time accumulation is zero so now+0 is
  still zero and ->it_*_expires winds up staying zero.  For the VIRT and PROF
  clocks when cputime_t is tick granularity (or the SCHED clock on
  configurations where sched_clock's value only advances on clock ticks), this
  is not hard to arrange with new threads starting up and blocking before they
  accumulate a whole tick of CPU time.  That's what happens in Toyo's test
  case.

  Note that in general it is fine for that division to round down to zero,
  and set each thread's expiry time to its "now" time.  The problem only
  arises with thread's whose "now" value is still zero, so that now+0 winds up
  0 and is interpreted as "not set" instead of ">= now".  So it would be a
  sufficient and more precise fix to just use max(ticks, 1) inside the loop
  when setting each it_*_expires value.

  But, it does no harm to round the division up to one and always advance
  every thread's expiry time.  If the thread didn't already fire timers for
  the expiry time of "now", there is no expectation that it will do so before
  the next tick anyway.  So I followed Thomas's patch in lifting the max out
  of the loops.

  This patch also covers the reload cases, which are harder to write a test
  for (and I didn't try).  I've tested it with Toyo's case and it fixes that.

There is one issue with the patch: I was unable to determine the LPC

about which of the many devices provided by the ICH/ESB it was chose to use
the PCI bridge device, but the FWH settings live in the LPC device, so the

It turns out that SCTP wasn't written to handle skb fragments at
all.  The absence of any calls to skb_may_pull is testament to
that.

It just so happens that Xen creates fragmented packets more often
than other scenarios (header & data split when going from domU to
dom0).  That's what caused this bug to show up.

Until someone has the time sits down and audits the entire net/sctp
directory, here is a conservative and safe solution that simply
linearises all packets on input.

skb_segment fails to segment linear packets correctly because it

enough space for one MSS.

This was not detected earlier because linear packets should be
rare for GSO.  In fact it still remains to be seen what exactly
created the linear packets that triggered this bug.  Basically
the only time this should happen is if someone enables GSO
emulation on an interface that does not support SG.

Stephen Hemminger 0a898c598e [PATCH] sky2: 88E803X transmit lockup (2.6.18)
The reason sky2 driver was locking up on transmit on the Yukon-FE chipset
is that it was misconfiguring the internal RAM buffer so the transmitter
and receiver were sharing the same space.  It is a wonder it worked at all!

This patch addresses this, and fixes an easily reproducible hang on Transmit.
Only the Yukon-FE chip is Marvell 88E803X (10/100 only) are affected.

Zachary Amsden d758e21514 [PATCH] Fix potential interrupts during alternative patching
Interrupts must be disabled during alternative instruction patching.
On systems with high timer IRQ rates, or when running in an emulator,
timing differences can result in random kernel panics because of
running partially patched instructions.  This doesn't yet fix NMIs,
which requires extricating the patch code from the late bug checking
and is logically separate (and also less likely to cause problems).

Miklos Szeredi 6c7e1a3d3d [PATCH] fuse: fix hang on SMP
Fuse didn't always call i_size_write() with i_mutex held which caused
rare hangs on SMP/32bit.  This bug has been present since fuse-2.2,
well before being merged into mainline.

The simplest solution is to protect i_size_write() with the
per-connection spinlock.  Using i_mutex for this purpose would require
some restructuring of the code and I'm not even sure it's always safe
to acquire i_mutex in all places i_size needs to be set.

Since most of vmtruncate is already duplicated for other reasons,
duplicate the remaining part as well, making all i_size_write() calls
internal to fuse.

Using i_size_write() was unnecessary in fuse_init_inode(), since this
function is only called on a newly created locked inode.

Reported by a few people over the years, but special thanks to Dana
Henriksen who was persistent enough in helping me debug it.

Arthur Kepner ebd9eb32ff [PATCH] IB/mthca: Use mmiowb after doorbell ring
We discovered a problem when running IPoIB applications on multiple
CPUs on an Altix system. Many messages such as:

ib_mthca 0002:01:00.0: SQ 000014 full (19941644 head, 19941707 tail, 64 max, 0 nreq)

appear in syslog, and the driver wedges up.

Apparently this is because writes to the doorbells from different CPUs
reach the device out of order. The following patch adds mmiowb() calls
after doorbell rings to ensure the doorbell writes are ordered.

Eli Cohen fd4c742d7c [PATCH] IPoIB: Rejoin all multicast groups after a port event
When ipoib_ib_dev_flush() is called because of a port event, the
driver needs to rejoin all multicast groups, since the flush will call
ipoib_mcast_dev_flush() (via ipoib_ib_dev_down()).  Otherwise no
(non-broadcast) multicast groups will be rejoined until the networking
core calls ->set_multicast_list again, and so multicast reception will
be broken for potentially a long time.

NeilBrown 02bb8f3f91 [PATCH] knfsd: Fix race that can disable NFS server.
This is a long standing bug that seems to have only recently become
apparent, presumably due to increasing use of NFS over TCP - many
distros seem to be making it the default.

The SK_CONN bit gets set when a listening socket may be ready
for an accept, just as SK_DATA is set when data may be available.

It is entirely possible for svc_tcp_accept to be called with neither
of these set.  It doesn't happen often but there is a small race in
svc_sock_enqueue as SK_CONN and SK_DATA are tested outside the
spin_lock.  They could be cleared immediately after the test and
before the lock is gained.

This normally shouldn't be a problem.  The sockets are non-blocking so
trying to read() or accept() when ther is nothing to do is not a problem.

However: svc_tcp_recvfrom makes the decision "Should I accept() or
should I read()" based on whether SK_CONN is set or not.  This usually
works but is not safe.  The decision should be based on whether it is
a TCP_LISTEN socket or a TCP_CONNECTED socket.

DVB: fix dvb_pll_attach for mt352/zl10353 in cx88-dvb, and nxt200x

Typical wiring of MT352, ZL10353, NXT2002 and NXT2004 based tuners
differ from dvb-pll's expectation that the PLL is directly accessible.
On these boards, the PLL is actually hidden behind the demodulator, and
as such can only be accessed via the demodulator's interface.  It was
failing to communicate with the PLL during an attach test and
subsequently not connecting the tuner ops.

By passing a NULL I2C bus handle to dvb_pll_attach, this accessibility
check can be bypassed.  Do this for the affected boards.  Also fix a
possible NULL dereference at sleep time, which would otherwise be
exposed by this change.

This patch has been backported to the 2.6.18.y stable kernel series
from the original changesets from Chris Pascoe and Michael Krufky,
already present in the upstream 2.6.19 kernel tree.

Michael Buesch 37f8d2f4d1 [PATCH] bcm43xx: fix watchdog timeouts.
This fixes a netdev watchdog timeout problem.
The problem is caused by a needed netif_tx_disable
in the hardware calibration code and can be shown by the
following timegraph.

|---5secs - ~10 jiffies time---|---|OOPS
^                              ^
last real TX                   periodic work stops netif

At OOPS, the following happens:
The watchdog timer triggers, because the timeout of 5secs
is over. The watchdog first checks for stopped TX.
_Usually_ TX is only stopped from the TX handler to indicate
a full TX queue. But this is different. We need to stop TX here,
regardless of the TX queue state. So the watchdog recognizes
the stopped device and assumes it is stopped due to full
TX queues (Which is a _wrong_ assumption in this case). It then
tests how far the last TX has been in the past. If it's more than
5secs (which is the case for low or no traffic), it will fire
a TX timeout.

1) probe_other_fhcs() wants to see only non-central FHC
   busses, so skip FHCs that don't sit off the root

2) Like SBUS, FHC can lack the appropriate address and
   size cell count properties, so add an of_busses[]
   entry and handlers for that.

3) Central FHC irq translator probing was buggy.  We
   were trying to use dp->child in irq_trans_init but
   that linkage is not setup at this point.

   So instead, pass in the parent of "dp" and look for
   the child "fhc" with parent "central".

down these problems and testing out these fixes.
