2010-07-05powerpc/pseries: Only call start-cpu when a CPU is stoppedMichael Neuling
commit aef40e87d866355ffd279ab21021de733242d0d5 upstream. Currently we always call start-cpu irrespective of if the CPU is stopped or not. Unfortunatley on POWER7, firmware seems to not like start-cpu being called when a cpu already been started. This was not the case on POWER6 and earlier. This patch checks to see if the CPU is stopped or not via an query-cpu-stopped-state call, and only calls start-cpu on CPUs which are stopped. This fixes a bug with kexec on POWER7 on PHYP where only the primary thread would make it to the second kernel.

2010-07-05powerpc: Fix handling of strncmp with zero lenJeff Mahoney
commit 637a99022fb119b90fb281715d13172f0394fc12 upstream. Commit 0119536c, which added the assembly version of strncmp to powerpc, mentions that it adds two instructions to the version from boot/string.S to allow it to handle len=0. Unfortunately, it doesn't always return 0 when that is the case. The length is passed in r5, but the return value is passed back in r3. In certain cases, this will happen to work. Otherwise it will pass back the address of the first string as the return value. This patch lifts the len <= 0 handling code from memcpy to handle that case.

2010-07-05ARCNET: Limit com20020 PCI ID matches for SOHARD cardsAndreas Bombe
commit e7971c80a8e0299f91272ad8e8ac4167623e1862 upstream. The SH SOHARD ARCNET cards are implemented using generic PLX Technology PCI<->IOBus bridges. Subvendor and subdevice IDs were not specified, causing the driver to attach to any such bridge and likely crash the system by attempting to initialize an unrelated device.

2010-07-05NFSD: don't report compiled-out versions as presentPavel Emelyanov
commit 15ddb4aec54422ead137b03ea4e9b3f5db3f7cc2 upstream. The /proc/fs/nfsd/versions file calls nfsd_vers() to check whether the particular nfsd version is present/available. The problem is that once I turn off e.g. NFSD-V4 this call returns -1 which is true from the callers POV which is wrong. The proposal is to report false in that case.

2010-07-05libata: disable ATAPI AN by defaultTejun Heo
commit e7ecd435692ca9bde9d124be30b3a26e672ea6c2 upstream. There are ATAPI devices which raise AN when hit by commands issued by open(). This leads to infinite loop of AN -> MEDIA_CHANGE uevent -> udev open() to check media -> AN. Both ACS and SerialATA standards don't define in which case ATAPI devices are supposed to raise or not raise AN. They both list media insertion event as a possible use case for ATAPI ANs but there is no clear description of what constitutes such events. As such, it seems a bit too naive to export ANs directly to userland as MEDIA_CHANGE events without further verification (which should behave similarly to windows as it apparently is the only thing that some hardware vendors are testing against). This patch adds libata.atapi_an module parameter and disables ATAPI AN by default for now.

The previous patch from Alan Cox ("nfsd: fix vm overcommit crash", commit 731572d39fcd3498702eda4600db4c43d51e0b26) fixed the problem where knfsd crashes on exported shmemfs objects and strict overcommit is set.

commit 731572d39fcd3498702eda4600db4c43d51e0b26 upstream. Junjiro R. Okajima reported a problem where knfsd crashes if you are using it to export shmemfs objects and run strict overcommit. In this situation the current->mm based modifier to the overcommit goes through a NULL pointer. We could simply check for NULL and skip the modifier but we've caught other real bugs in the past from mm being NULL here - cases where we did need a valid mm set up (eg the exec bug about a year ago). To preserve the checks and get the logic we want shuffle the checking around and add a new helper to the vm_ security wrappers Also fix a current->mm reference in nommu that should use the passed mm [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build] Reported-by: Junjiro R.

commit 1c010ff8912cbc08d80e865aab9c32b6b00c527d upstream. The functionality bit vector is always returned as a little-endian 32-bit number by the device, so it must be byte-swapped to the host endianness.

2010-05-26hwmon: (w83781d) Request I/O ports individually for probingJean Delvare
commit b0bcdd3cd0adb85a7686b396ba50493871b1135c upstream. Different motherboards have different PNP declarations for W83781D/W83782D chips. Some declare the whole range of I/O ports (8 ports), some declare only the useful ports (2 ports at offset 5) and some declare fancy ranges, for example 4 ports at offset 4. To properly handle all cases, request all ports individually for probing. After we have determined that we really have a W83781D or W83782D chip, the useful port range will be requested again, as a single block. I did not see a board which needs this yet, but I know of one for lm78 driver and I'd like to keep the logic of these two drivers in sync.

2010-05-26libata: retry FS IOs even if it has failed with AC_ERR_INVALIDTejun Heo
commit 534ead709235b967b659947c55d9130873a432c4 upstream. libata currently doesn't retry if a command fails with AC_ERR_INVALID assuming that retrying won't get it any further even if retried. However, a failure may be classified as invalid through hardware glitch (incorrect reading of the error register or firmware bug) and there isn't whole lot to gain by not retrying as actually invalid commands will be failed immediately. Also, commands serving FS IOs are extremely unlikely to be invalid. Retry FS IOs even if it's marked invalid. Transient and incorrect invalid failure was seen while debugging firmware related issue on Samsung n130 on bko#14314. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14314 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: Johannes Stezenbach <js@sig21.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2010-05-26i2c: Fix probing of FSC hardware monitoring chipsJean Delvare
commit b1d4b390ea4bb480e65974ce522a04022608a8df upstream. Some FSC hardware monitoring chips (Syleus at least) doesn't like quick writes we typically use to probe for I2C chips. Use a regular byte read instead for the address they live at (0x73). These are the only known chips living at this address on PC systems. For clarity, this fix should not be needed for kernels 2.6.30 and later, as we started instantiating the hwmon devices explicitly based on DMI data. Still, this fix is valuable in the following two cases: * Support for recent FSC chips on older kernels. The DMI-based device instantiation is more difficult to backport than the device support itself. * Case where the DMI-based device instantiation fails, whatever the reason. We fall back to probing in that case, so it should work.

2010-05-26NFS: rsize and wsize settings ignored on v4 mountsChuck Lever
commit 356e76b855bdbfd8d1c5e75bcf0c6bf0dfe83496 upstream. NFSv4 mounts ignore the rsize and wsize mount options, and always use the default transfer size for both. This seems to be because all NFSv4 mounts are now cloned, and the cloning logic doesn't copy the rsize and wsize settings from the parent nfs_server. I tested Fedora's 2.6.32.11-99 and it seems to have this problem as well, so I'm guessing that .33, .32, and perhaps older kernels have this issue as well.

commit d9e80b7de91db05c1c4d2e5ebbfd70b3b3ba0e0f upstream. If dentry found stale happens to be a root of disconnected tree, we can't d_drop() it; its d_hash is actually part of s_anon and d_drop() would simply hide it from shrink_dcache_for_umount(), leading to all sorts of fun, including busy inodes on umount and oopsen after that.

2010-05-26nfsd4: bug in read_bufNeil Brown
commit 2bc3c1179c781b359d4f2f3439cb3df72afc17fc upstream. When read_buf is called to move over to the next page in the pagelist of an NFSv4 request, it sets argp->end to essentially a random number, certainly not an address within the page which argp->p now points to. So subsequent calls to READ_BUF will think there is much more than a page of spare space (the cast to u32 ensures an unsigned comparison) so we can expect to fall off the end of the second page. We never encountered thsi in testing because typically the only operations which use more than two pages are write-like operations, which have their own decoding logic. Something like a getattr after a write may cross a page boundary, but it would be very unusual for it to cross another boundary after that. Signed-off-by: J.

2010-05-26clockevent: Prevent dead lock on clockevents_lockSuresh Siddha
This is a merge of two mainline commits, intended for stable@kernel.org submission for 2.6.27 kernel. commit f833bab87fca5c3ce13778421b1365845843b976 and commit 918aae42aa9b611a3663b16ae849fdedc67c2292 Changelog of both: Currently clockevents_notify() is called with interrupts enabled at some places and interrupts disabled at some other places. This results in a deadlock in this scenario. cpu A holds clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs enabled cpu B waits for clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs disabled cpu C doing set_mtrr() which will try to rendezvous of all the cpus. This will result in C and A come to the rendezvous point and waiting for B. B is stuck forever waiting for the spinlock and thus not reaching the rendezvous point. Fix the clockevents code so that clockevents_lock is taken with interrupts disabled and thus avoid the above deadlock. Also call lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() on the destination cpu so that we avoid calling smp_call_function() in the clockevents notifier chain. This issue left us wondering if we need to change the MTRR rendezvous logic to use stop machine logic (instead of smp_call_function) or add a check in spinlock debug code to see if there are other spinlocks which gets taken under both interrupts enabled/disabled conditions.

commit a30d542a0035b886ffaafd0057ced0a2b28c3a4f upstream. With delayed allocation we need to make sure block are reserved before we attempt to allocate them.

This patch updates the DIO and fallocate code path to do block reservation before block allocation. This is needed to make sure parallel DIO and fallocate request doesn't take block out of delayed reserve space. When free blocks count go below a threshold we switch to a slow patch which looks at other CPU's accumulated percpu counter values.

commit 1f7c14c62ce63805f9574664a6c6de3633d4a354 upstream. percpu_counter_sum_and_set() and percpu_counter_sum() is the same except the former updates the global counter after accounting.

commit c4a0c46ec92c194c873232b88debce4e1a448483 upstream. We are a bit agressive in invalidating all the pages. But it is ok because we really don't know why the block allocation failed and it is better to come of the writeback path so that user can look for more info.

commit 413b43deab8377819aba1dbad2abf0c15d59b491 upstream. Fix an 'oops' when a tmpfs mount point is mounted with the mpol=default mempolicy. Upon remounting a tmpfs mount point with 'mpol=default' option, the mount code crashed with a null pointer dereference. The initial problem report was on 2.6.27, but the problem exists in mainline 2.6.34-rc as well. On examining the code, we see that mpol_new returns NULL if default mempolicy was requested. This 'NULL' mempolicy is accessed to store the node mask resulting in oops. The following patch fixes it.

2010-04-01b44 WOL setup: one-bit-off stack corruption kernel panic fixStanislav Brabec
commit e0188829cb724e7d12a2d4e343b368ff1d6e1471 upstream. About 50% of shutdowns of b44 Ethernet adapter ends by kernel panic with kernels compiled with stack-protector. Checking b44_magic_pattern() return values, one call of b44_magic_pattern() returns 127. It means, that set_bit(128, pmask) was called on line 1509. It means that bit 0 of 17th byte of pmask was overwritten. But pmask has only 16 bytes. Stack corruption happens. It seems that set_bit() on line 1509 always writes one bit off. The fix does not only solve the stack corruption, but also makes Wake On LAN working on my onboard B44 on Asus A7V-333X mainboard. It seems that this problem affects all kernel versions since commit 725ad800 ([PATCH] b44: add wol for old nic) on 2006-06-20.

commit 41f8910040639eb106b1a5b5301aab79ecde4940 upstream. Pointed out by Sean E. Millichamp. Quote from Documentation/networking/bonding.txt: "Note that when a bonding interface has no active links, the driver will immediately reuse the first link that goes up, even if the updelay parameter has been specified (the updelay is ignored in this case). If there are slave interfaces waiting for the updelay timeout to expire, the interface that first went into that state will be immediately reused. This reduces down time of the network if the value of updelay has been overestimated, and since this occurs only in cases with no connectivity, there is no additional penalty for ignoring the updelay."

2010-04-01coredump: suppress uid comparison test if core output files are pipesNeil Horman
commit 76595f79d76fbe6267a51b3a866a028d150f06d4 upstream. Modify uid check in do_coredump so as to not apply it in the case of pipes. This just got noticed in testing. The end of do_coredump validates the uid of the inode for the created file against the uid of the crashing process to ensure that no one can pre-create a core file with different ownership and grab the information contained in the core when they shouldn' tbe able to. This causes failures when using pipes for a core dumps if the crashing process is not root, which is the uid of the pipe when it is created. The fix is simple. Since the check for matching uid's isn't relevant for pipes (a process can't create a pipe that the uermodehelper code will open anyway), we can just just skip it in the event ispipe is non-zero Reverts a pipe-affecting change which was accidentally made in : commit c46f739dd39db3b07ab5deb4e3ec81e1c04a91af : Author: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> : AuthorDate: Wed Nov 28 13:59:18 2007 +0100 : Commit: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@woody.linux-foundation.org> : CommitDate: Wed Nov 28 10:58:01 2007 -0800 : : vfs: coredumping fix Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: maximilian attems <max@stro.at> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

commit 59839dfff5eabca01cc4e20b45797a60a80af8cb upstream. Matt T. Yourst notes that kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_sregs lacks validity checking for the new cr3 value: "Userspace callers of KVM_SET_SREGS can pass a bogus value of cr3 to the kernel. This will trigger a NULL pointer access in gfn_to_rmap() when userspace next tries to call KVM_RUN on the affected VCPU and kvm attempts to activate the new non-existent page table root. This happens since kvm only validates that cr3 points to a valid guest physical memory page when code *inside* the guest sets cr3. However, kvm currently trusts the userspace caller (e.g. QEMU) on the host machine to always supply a valid page table root, rather than properly validating it along with the rest of the reloaded guest state." http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=893831&aid=2687641&group_id=180599 Check for a valid cr3 address in kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_sregs, triple fault in case of failure.

2010-04-01drm/r128: Add test for initialisation to all ioctls that require itBen Hutchings
commit 7dc482dfeeeefcfd000d4271c4626937406756d7 upstream. Almost all r128's private ioctls require that the CCE state has already been initialised. However, most do not test that this has been done, and will proceed to dereference a null pointer. This may result in a security vulnerability, since some ioctls are unprivileged. This adds a macro for the common initialisation test and changes all ioctl implementations that require prior initialisation to use that macro. Also, r128_do_init_cce() does not test that the CCE state has not been initialised already. Repeated initialisation may lead to a crash or resource leak. This adds that test.
