The bond->recv_probe is called in bond_handle_frame() when a packet is received, but bond_close() sets it to NULL. So, a panic occurs when both functions work in parallel. Why this happen: After null pointer check of bond->recv_probe, an sk_buff is duplicated and bond->recv_probe is called in bond_handle_frame. So, a panic occurs when bond_close() is called between the check and call of bond->recv_probe. Patch: This patch uses a local function pointer of bond->recv_probe in bond_handle_frame(). So, it can avoid the null pointer dereference.

USE_PHYLIB flag in tg3_remove_one() is being checked incorrectly. This results tg3_phy_fini->phy_disconnect is never called and when tg3 module is removed. In my case this resulted in panics in phy_state_machine calling function phydev->adjust_link. So correct this check.

The Bluetooth stack has internal connection handlers for all of the various Bluetooth protocols, and unfortunately, they are currently lacking the LSM hooks found in the core network stack's connection handlers. I say unfortunately, because this can cause problems for users who have have an LSM enabled and are using certain Bluetooth devices. See one problem report below: * http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=741703 In order to keep things simple at this point in time, this patch fixes the problem by cloning the parent socket's LSM attributes to the newly created child socket. If we decide we need a more elaborate LSM marking mechanism for Bluetooth (I somewhat doubt this) we can always revisit this decision in the future. Reported-by: James M.

There are multiple locations in the X.25 packet layer where a skb is assumed to be of at least a certain size and that all its data is currently available at skb->data. These assumptions are not checked, hence buffer overreads may occur. Use pskb_may_pull to check these minimal size assumptions and ensure that data is available at skb->data when necessary, as well as use skb_copy_bits where needed.

X.25 call user data is being copied in its entirety from incoming messages without consideration to the size of the destination buffers, leading to possible buffer overflows. Validate incoming call user data lengths before these copies are performed.

Commit 903ab86d of 1 March this year ("udp: Add lockless transmit path") introduced a new fast TX path that broke the checksum coverage computation of UDP-lite, which so far depended on up->len (only set if the socket is locked and 0 in the fast path). Fixed by providing both fast- and slow-path computation of checksum coverage. The latter can be removed when UDP(-lite)v6 also uses a lockless transmit path.

SFI tables reside in RAM and should not be modified once they are written. Current code went to set pentry->irq to zero which causes subsequent reads to fail with invalid SFI table checksum. This will break kexec as the second kernel fails to validate SFI tables. To fix this we use temporary variable for irq number.

The w83627ehf driver is improperly reporting thermal diode sensors as type 2, instead of 3. This caused "sensors" and possibly other monitoring tools to report these sensors as "transistor" instead of "thermal diode". Furthermore, diode subtype selection (CPU vs. external) is only supported by the original W83627EHF/EHG. All later models only support CPU diode type, and some (NCT6776F) don't even have the register in question so we should avoid reading from it.

With commit f64ad1a0, "gpio/omap: cleanup _set_gpio_wakeup(), remove ifdefs", access to build time conditionally omitted 'suspend_wakeup' member of the 'gpio_bank' structure has been placed unconditionally in function _set_gpio_wakeup(), which is always built. This resulted in the driver compilation broken for certain OMAP1, i.e., non-OMAP16xx, configurations. Really required or not in previously excluded cases, define this structure member unconditionally as a fix. Tested with a custom OMAP1510 only configuration.

Christoph Hellwig authored
Currently we have a few issues with the way the workqueue code is used to implement AIL pushing: - it accidentally uses the same workqueue as the syncer action, and thus can be prevented from running if there are enough sync actions active in the system. - it doesn't use the HIGHPRI flag to queue at the head of the queue of work items At this point I'm not confident enough in getting all the workqueue flags and tweaks right to provide a perfectly reliable execution context for AIL pushing, which is the most important piece in XFS to make forward progress when the log fills. Revert back to use a kthread per filesystem which fixes all the above issues at the cost of having a task struct and stack around for each mounted filesystem. In addition this also gives us much better ways to diagnose any issues involving hung AIL pushing and removes a small amount of code.

We need to check for pinned buffers even in .iop_pushbuf given that inode items flush into the same buffers that may be pinned directly due operations on the unlinked inode list operating directly on buffers. To do this add a return value to .iop_pushbuf that tells the AIL push about this and use the existing log force mechanisms to unpin it.

If an item was locked we should not update xa_last_pushed_lsn and thus skip it when restarting the AIL scan as we need to be able to lock and write it out as soon as possible. Otherwise heavy lock contention might starve AIL pushing too easily, especially given the larger backoff once we moved xa_last_pushed_lsn all the way to the target lsn.

The btrfs file defrag code will loop through the extents and force COW on them. But there is a concurrent truncate in the middle of the defrag, it might end up defragging the same range over and over again. The problem is that writepage won't go through and do anything on pages past i_size, so the cow won't happen, so the file will appear to still be fragmented. defrag will end up hitting the same extents again and again. In the worst case, the truncate can actually live lock with the defrag because the defrag keeps creating new ordered extents which the truncate code keeps waiting on. The fix here is to make defrag check for i_size inside the main loop, instead of just once before the looping starts. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

Follow those steps: # mount -o autodefrag /dev/sda7 /mnt # dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/tmp bs=200K count=1 # sync # dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/tmp bs=8K count=1 conv=notrunc and then it'll go into a loop: writeback -> defrag -> writeback ... It's because writeback writes [8K, 200K] and then writes [0, 8K]. I tried to make writeback know if the pages are dirtied by defrag, but the patch was a bit intrusive. Here I simply set writeback_index when we defrag a file. Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

The doorbell register was being unconditionally swapped. In x86, that meant it was being swapped to BE and written to the descriptor and to memory, depending on the case of blue frame support or writing to doorbell register. On PPC, this meant it was being swapped to LE and then swapped back to BE while writing to the register. But in the blue frame case, it was being written as LE to the descriptor. The fix is not to swap doorbell unconditionally, write it to the register as BE and convert it to BE when writing it to the descriptor.
