The kernel currently allows any user permitted to access the tape device file to send the tape drive commands that may either make the tape drivers internal state inconsistent or to change the drive parameters so that other users find the drive to be unusable. This patch changes ioctl handling so that SG_IO, SCSI_IOCTL_COMMAND, etc. require CAP_ADMIN. This solves the consistency problems for SCSI tapes. The st driver provides user-accessible commands to change the drive parameters that users may need to access. The SCSI command permissions were discussed widely on the linux lists but this did not result in any useful refinement of the permissions. It may very well be that the tape drives are the only devices that users are sometimes given permissions to access and that have security problems with the current command filtering. This patch solves the problem for tapes and no more elaborate patches are needed. Signed-off-by: Kai Makisara <kai.makisara@kolumbus.fi> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

Problems fixed: - the sense descriptor is cleared before filling - BSF and BSFM are added to the commands causing automatic writing of filemark if the previous operation was write (tar expects this) - the block number is set to unknown (-1) if spacing forward ends at BLANK CHECK - debugging printout of spacing counts fixed to work also with 64-bit systems Signed-off-by: Kai Makisara <kai.makisara@kolumbus.fi> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

These were lost from the SCSI transport classes in the transition to the generic classes. Ressurect it in the generic class, since it's probable that more than SCSI will want to use this. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

Some users, set hold time to zero on bridge so it always does flooding. This is usually when using it with wireless. The new RCU based code changed the behaviour so the bridge would not flood for one GC interval. This patch restores the original behaviour. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

In an attempt to return a locked socket ax25_get_socket() was calling lock_sock() with a spinlock held, bad idea. Making matters worse it's only user is running in bottom half context resulting in a potencial attempt to sleep in bottom half context, so fix the locking there as well. Signed-off-by: David S.

netlink_autobind has always set nlk_sk(sk)->groups to zero. This is unnecessary because sk_alloc already zeroes the entire structure. Since a socket can only be bound once netlink_autobind doesn't need to zero groups at all. This had been safe until I added mc_list. Now it is possible for netlink_bind to race against netlink_autobind running on the same socket on another CPU. The result would be a socket that's on mc_list with groups set to zero. This socket will be left on the list even after it is destroyed. The fix is to remove the zeroing in netlink_autobind. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

While replacing dst_pmtu in ip6_output I found this little gem. In ip6_forward we're not reloading the dst pointer after calling xfrm6_route_forward. So all subsequent dereferences of dst will refer to its pre-IPsec value. The solution is of course to refresh its value.

I'm now cleaning up all users of dst_pmtu with the aim of replacing dst_pmtu with dst_mtu. I'm going to start with the ones that actually fix bugs. This patch fixes the length calculation in icmp_send. As it is we're overestimating the space available by including the space that would be used up by IPsec encapsulation. IPv6 doesn't have this problem since its calculation is based on 1280 instead of the PMTU. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When cleaning up the remaining users of dst_pmtu I noticed that local_df wasn't being treated correctly in IPsec. In fact, if you socket's dst went over IPsec, local_df is essentailly ignored.

Otherwise ia64 and sparc64 explode with the new ptwalk iterators. The pgd level stuff does not handle virtual address space holes (sparc64) and region based PGD indexing (ia64) properly. It only matters in functions like clear_page_range() which potentially walk over more than a single VMA worth of address space. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Send scsi_host kobject uevent notifications for potential configuration changes. This small change allows userspace ipr apps to use netlink/uevent for configuration change notification instead of having to poll /sys for this information. These apps can already look for add/remove uevents for devices, but they also need to be notified when an adapter reset occurs, which is what this patch will do.

Since the ipr adapter initialization is performed by waiting for an interrupt to occur and this is the first interrupt ever received from the adapter, and the timeout for this interrupt is 5 minutes, failed ipr adapters can halt the boot process for a long time. In certain environments, it makes sense to not try as hard to get the adapter working and just fail the adapter. This patch adds two module parameters to modify the adapter initialization sequence.

The ipr family of adapters is capable of handling data transfer sizes of 16777215 bytes. Logical disk array devices under ipr are capable of only 256k transfer lengths.

If a device disappears across an adapter reset, ipr schedules the device to be removed from scsi core. Any ops sent to that device prior to its actual removal end up getting sent to the adapter using a now invalid adapter resource handle. Usually, the adapter will just fail the command and the failure will end up looking like a selection timeout, but it is possible the resource handle has been re-used by the adapter and we could be sending an op to a different device than we think we are. This patch closes this window. Signed-off-by: Brian King <brking@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
