Fixes a data corruption bug in pxa2xx_spi.c when operating in full duplex mode with DMA and using buffers that overlap. SPI transmit and receive buffers are allowed to be the same or to overlap. However, this driver fails if such overlap is attempted in DMA mode because it maps the rx and tx buffers in the wrong order. By mapping DMA_FROM_DEVICE (read) before DMA_TO_DEVICE (write), it invalidates the cache before flushing it, thus discarding data which should have been transmitted. The patch corrects the order of mapping. This bug exists in all versions of pxa2xx_spi.c; similar bugs are in the drivers for two other SPI controllers (au1500, imx). A version of this patch has been tested on kernel 2.6.20 using verification of loopback data with: random transfer length, random bits-per-word, random positive offsets (both larger and smaller than transfer length) between the start of the rx and tx buffers, and varying clock rates.

kunmap() takes as argument the struct page that orginally got kmap()'d, however the sg_miter_stop() function passed it the kernel virtual address instead, resulting in weird stuff. Somehow I ended up fixing this bug by accident while looking for a bug in the same area.

Ulrich Drepper authored
Introduce a new accept4() system call. The addition of this system call matches analogous changes in 2.6.27 (dup3(), evenfd2(), signalfd4(), inotify_init1(), epoll_create1(), pipe2()) which added new system calls that differed from analogous traditional system calls in adding a flags argument that can be used to access additional functionality. The accept4() system call is exactly the same as accept(), except that it adds a flags bit-mask argument. Two flags are initially implemented. (Most of the new system calls in 2.6.27 also had both of these flags.) SOCK_CLOEXEC causes the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag to be enabled for the new file descriptor returned by accept4(). This is a useful security feature to avoid leaking information in a multithreaded program where one thread is doing an accept() at the same time as another thread is doing a fork() plus exec(). More details here: http://udrepper.livejournal.com/20407.html "Secure File Descriptor Handling", Ulrich Drepper). The other flag is SOCK_NONBLOCK, which causes the O_NONBLOCK flag to be enabled on the new open file description created by accept4(). (This flag is merely a convenience, saving the use of additional calls fcntl(F_GETFL) and fcntl (F_SETFL) to achieve the same result. Here's a test program. Works on x86-32. Should work on x86-64, but I (mtk) don't have a system to hand to test with. It tests accept4() with each of the four possible combinations of SOCK_CLOEXEC and SOCK_NONBLOCK set/clear in 'flags', and verifies that the appropriate flags are set on the file descriptor/open file description returned by accept4(). I tested Ulrich's patch in this thread by applying against 2.6.28-rc2, and it passes according to my test program. /* test_accept4.c Copyright (C) 2008, Linux Foundation, written by Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Licensed under the GNU GPLv2 or later. */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <netinet/in.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #define PORT_NUM 33333 #define die(msg) do { perror(msg); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } while (0) /**********************************************************************/ /* The following is what we need until glibc gets a wrapper for accept4() */ /* Flags for socket(), socketpair(), accept4() */ #ifndef SOCK_CLOEXEC #define SOCK_CLOEXEC O_CLOEXEC #endif #ifndef SOCK_NONBLOCK #define SOCK_NONBLOCK O_NONBLOCK #endif #ifdef __x86_64__ #define SYS_accept4 288 #elif __i386__ #define USE_SOCKETCALL 1 #define SYS_ACCEPT4 18 #else #error "Sorry -- don't know the syscall # on this architecture" #endif static int accept4(int fd, struct sockaddr *sockaddr, socklen_t *addrlen, int flags) { printf("Calling accept4(): flags = %x", flags); if (flags != 0) { printf(" ("); if (flags & SOCK_CLOEXEC) printf("SOCK_CLOEXEC"); if ((flags & SOCK_CLOEXEC) && (flags & SOCK_NONBLOCK)) printf(" "); if (flags & SOCK_NONBLOCK) printf("SOCK_NONBLOCK"); printf(")"); } printf("\n"); #if USE_SOCKETCALL long args[6]; args[0] = fd; args[1] = (long) sockaddr; args[2] = (long) addrlen; args[3] = flags; return syscall(SYS_socketcall, SYS_ACCEPT4, args); #else return syscall(SYS_accept4, fd, sockaddr, addrlen, flags); #endif } /**********************************************************************/ static int do_test(int lfd, struct sockaddr_in *conn_addr, int closeonexec_flag, int nonblock_flag) { int connfd, acceptfd; int fdf, flf, fdf_pass, flf_pass; struct sockaddr_in claddr; socklen_t addrlen; printf("=======================================\n"); connfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); if (connfd == -1) die("socket"); if (connect(connfd, (struct sockaddr *) conn_addr, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)) == -1) die("connect"); addrlen = sizeof(struct sockaddr_in); acceptfd = accept4(lfd, (struct sockaddr *) &claddr, &addrlen, closeonexec_flag | nonblock_flag); if (acceptfd == -1) { perror("accept4()"); close(connfd); return 0; } fdf = fcntl(acceptfd, F_GETFD); if (fdf == -1) die("fcntl:F_GETFD"); fdf_pass = ((fdf & FD_CLOEXEC) != 0) == ((closeonexec_flag & SOCK_CLOEXEC) != 0); printf("Close-on-exec flag is %sset (%s); ", (fdf & FD_CLOEXEC) ?

A problem was found while reviewing the code after Bugzilla bug http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11796. In ipc_addid(), the newly allocated ipc structure is inserted into the ipcs tree (i.e made visible to readers) without locking it. This is not correct since its initialization continues after it has been inserted in the tree. This patch moves the ipc structure lock initialization + locking before the actual insertion.

We run into system boot failure with kernel 2.6.28-rc. We found it on a couple of machines, including T61 notebook, nehalem machine, and another HPC NX6325 notebook. All the machines use FedoraCore 8 or FedoraCore 9. With kernel prior to 2.6.28-rc, system boot doesn't fail. I debug it and locate the root cause. Pls. see http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11899 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471517 As a matter of fact, there are 2 bugs. 1)root=/dev/sda1, system boot randomly fails. Mostly, boot for 5 times and fails once. nash has a bug. Some of its functions misuse return value 0. Sometimes, 0 means timeout and no uevent available. Sometimes, 0 means nash gets an uevent, but the uevent isn't block-related (for exmaple, usb). If by coincidence, kernel tells nash that uevents are available, but kernel also set timeout, nash might stops collecting other uevents in queue if current uevent isn't block-related. I work out a patch for nash to fix it. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18858 2) root=LABEL=/, system always can't boot. initrd init reports switchroot fails. Here is an executation branch of nash when booting: (1) nash read /sys/block/sda/dev; Assume major is 8 (on my desktop) (2) nash query /proc/devices with the major number; It found line "8 sd"; (3) nash use 'sd' to search its own probe table to find device (DISK) type for the device and add it to its own list; (4) Later on, it probes all devices in its list to get filesystem labels; scsi register "8 sd" always. When major is 259, nash fails to find the device(DISK) type. I enables CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT=y when compiling kernel, so 259 is picked up for device /dev/sda1, which causes nash to fail to find device (DISK) type. To fixing issue 2), I create a patch for nash and another patch for kernel. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18859 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18837 Below is the patch for kernel 2.6.28-rc4. It registers blkext, a new block device in proc/devices. With 2 patches on nash and 1 patch on kernel, I boot my machines for dozens of times without failure.

Impact: fix section mismatch warning in kernel/profile.c Here, profile_nop function has been called from a non-init function create_hash_tables(void). Which generetes a section mismatch warning. Previously, create_hash_tables(void) was a init function. So, removing __init from create_hash_tables(void) requires profile_nop to be non-init. This patch makes profile_nop function inline and fixes the following warning: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x6ebb6): Section mismatch in reference from the function create_hash_tables() to the function .init.text:profile_nop() The function create_hash_tables() references the function __init profile_nop().

Fixes a data corruption under heavy stress in which pages could be left dirty after all open instances of a inode have been closed. In order to write contiguous pages whenever possible, cifs_writepages() asks pagevec_lookup_tag() for more pages than it may write at one time. Normally, it then resets index just past the last page written before calling pagevec_lookup_tag() again. If cifs_writepages() can't write the first page returned, it wasn't resetting index, and the next call to pagevec_lookup_tag() resulted in skipping all of the pages it previously returned, even though cifs_writepages() did nothing with them. This can result in data loss when the file descriptor is about to be closed. This patch ensures that index gets set back to the next returned page so that none get skipped.
