Commit d9ca07a0 ("watchdog: Avoid kernel crash when disabling watchdog") introduces a section mismatch. Now that we reference no_watchdog from non-__init code it can no longer be __initdata.

posix-cpu-timers.c correctly assumes that the dying process does posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() and removes all !CPUCLOCK_PERTHREAD timers from signal->cpu_timers list. But, it also assumes that timer->it.cpu.task is always the group leader, and thus the dead ->task means the dead thread group. This is obviously not true after de_thread() changes the leader. After that almost every posix_cpu_timer_ method has problems. It is not simple to fix this bug correctly. First of all, I think that timer->it.cpu should use struct pid instead of task_struct. Also, the locking should be reworked completely. In particular, tasklist_lock should not be used at all. This all needs a lot of nontrivial and hard-to-test changes. Change __exit_signal() to do posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() when the old leader dies during exec. This is not the fix, just the temporary hack to hide the problem for 2.6.37 and stable. IOW, this is obviously wrong but this is what we currently have anyway: cpu timers do not work after mt exec. In theory this change adds another race. The exiting leader can detach the timers which were attached to the new leader. However, the window between de_thread() and release_task() is small, we can pretend that sys_timer_create() was called before de_thread().

adapter->id is deprecated and not set by any adapter driver, so this was certainly not what the author wanted to use. adapter->nr maybe, but as dev_err() already includes this value, as well as the client's address, there's no point repeating them.

We can optimize kernel/relay.c::relay_alloc_page_array() slightly by using vzalloc. The patch makes these changes: - use vzalloc instead of vmalloc+memset. - remove redundant local variable 'array'. - declare local 'pa_size' as const. Cuts down nicely on both source and object-code size.

Jeff Layton authored
This patch is based on Dan's original patch. His original description is below: Smatch complained about a couple checking for NULL after dereferencing bugs. I'm not super familiar with the code so I did the conservative thing and move the dereferences after the checks. The dereferences in cifs_lock() and cifs_fsync() were added in ba00ba64 "cifs: make various routines use the cifsFileInfo->tcon pointer". The dereference in find_writable_file() was added in 6508d904 "cifs: have find_readable/writable_file filter by fsuid". The comments there say it's possible to trigger the NULL dereference under stress.

We were using nlmsg_find_attr() to look up the bytecode by attribute when auditing, but then just using the first attribute when actually running bytecode. So, if we received a message with two attribute elements, where only the second had type INET_DIAG_REQ_BYTECODE, we would validate and run different bytecode strings. Fix this by consistently using nlmsg_find_attr everywhere. Signed-off-by: Nelson Elhage <nelhage@ksplice.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

There're some percpu_counter list corruption and poison overwritten warnings in recent kernel, which is resulted by fc66f95c. commit fc66f95c switches to use percpu_counter, in ip6_route_net_init, kernel init the percpu_counter for dst entries, but, the percpu_counter is never destroyed in ip6_route_net_exit. So if the related data is freed by kernel, the freed percpu_counter is still on the list, then if we insert/remove other percpu_counter, list corruption resulted. Also, if the insert/remove option modifies the ->prev,->next pointer of the freed value, the poison overwritten is resulted then. With the following patch, the percpu_counter list corruption and poison overwritten warnings disappeared. Signed-off-by: Xiaotian Feng <dfeng@redhat.com> Cc: "David S.
