This fixes a nasty memory corruption bug when using userptr I/O. The function videobuf_pages_to_sg() sets up the scatter-gather list for the DMA transfer to the userspace pages. The first transfer is setup correctly (the size is set to PAGE_SIZE - offset), but all other transfers have size PAGE_SIZE. This is wrong for the last transfer which may be less than PAGE_SIZE. Most, if not all, drivers will program the boards DMA engine correctly, i.e. even though the size in the last sg element is wrong, they will do their own size calculations and make sure the right amount is DMA-ed, and so seemingly prevent memory corruption. However, behind the scenes the dynamic DMA mapping support (in lib/swiotlb.c) may create bounce buffers if the memory pages are not in DMA-able memory. This happens for example on a 64-bit linux with a board that only supports 32-bit DMA. These bounce buffers DO use the information in the sg list to determine the size. So while the DMA engine transfers the correct amount of data, when the data is 'bounced' back too much is copied, causing buffer overwrites. The fix is simple: calculate and set the correct size for the last sg list element.

Drivers shouldn't sleep while holding a spinlock. A previous workaround were to release the spinlock before callinc schedule(). This patch uses a different approach: it just waits for the siano hardware to answer.

To improve performance on DiB7770-devices enabling the current mirror is needed. This patch adds an option to the dib7000p-driver to do that and it creates a separate device-entry in dib0700-device to use those changes on hardware which is using the DiB7770.

The logic in ir_timer_keyup was inverted. In case that values aren't equal, the meaning of the time_is_after_eq_jiffies(ir->keyup_jiffies) is that ir->keyup_jiffies is after the the jiffies or equally that that jiffies are before the the ir->keyup_jiffies which is exactly the situation we want to avoid (that the timeout is in the future) Confusing Eh?

As reported by Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>, double IR events on 2.6.36-rc2 and a DViCO FusionHDTV DVB-T Dual Express are happening: [ 1351.032084] ir_keydown: i2c IR (FusionHDTV): key down event, key 0x0067, scancode 0x0051 [ 1351.281284] ir_keyup: keyup key 0x0067 ie one key down event and one key up event 250ms later. So, we need to increase the repeat timeout, to avoid this bug to hit. As we're doing it at core, this fix is not needed anymore at dib0700 driver.

As reported by Carlos, Prolink Pixelview SBTVD Hybrid is based on Conexant cx231xx + Fujitsu 86A20S demodulator. However, both shares the same USB ID. So, we need to use USB bcdDevice, in order to properly discover what's the board. We know for sure that bcd 0x100 is used for a dib0700 device, while bcd 0x4001 is used for a cx23102 device. This patch reserves two ranges, the first one from 0x0000-0x3f00 for dib0700, and the second from 0x4000-0x4fff for cx231xx devices. This may need fixes in the future, as we get access to other devices.

When plugging some webcams on ARM, the system crashes. This is because we alloc buffer for an urb through usb_buffer_alloc, the alloced buffer is already in DMA coherent region, so we should set the flag of this urb to URB_NO_TRANSFER_DMA_MAP, otherwise when we submit this urb, the hcd core will handle this address as an non-DMA address and call dma_map_single/sg to map it. On arm architecture, dma_map_single a DMA coherent address will be catched by a BUG_ON().

Some time a go our customers wrote me about problem with our TV card BeholdTV Columbus. It's PCMCIA TV card for notebook. As I understand v4l has some regression with autodetect address of tuners. I can set incorrect I2C address and had report about detect tuner. No any TV of course. When I set correct tuner type and I2C address of the tuners all works well. Signed-off-by: Beholder Intl. Ltd.

The original code dereferenced "port" before checking it for NULL. I moved the test down below the check. Also I changed the comparisons a little so people wouldn't get confused and think "port" and "buf" were ints instead of pointers. (Probably that's what lead to this issue in the first place.) There is only one caller for this function and it passes non-NULL pointers, so this is essentially a cleanup rather than a bugfix.

"param->u.wpa_associate.wpa_ie_len" comes from the user. We should check it so that the copy_from_user() doesn't overflow the buffer. Also further down in the function, we assume that if "param->u.wpa_associate.wpa_ie_len" is set then "abyWPAIE[0]" is initialized. To make that work, I changed the test here to say that if "wpa_ie_len" is set then "wpa_ie" has to be a valid pointer or we return -EINVAL. Oddly, we only use the first element of the abyWPAIE[] array. So I suspect there may be some other issues in this function.

This reverts commit 96d592ed. The netfilter hook seems to be misused and may leak skbs in situations when NF_HOOK returns NF_STOLEN. It may not filter everything as expected. Also the ethernet bridge tables are not yet capable to understand batman-adv packet correctly. It was only added for testing purposes and can be removed again.

Commit 461c3177(into 2.6.36-v3) is put forward to power down phy if no usb cable is connected, but does introduce the two issues below: 1), phy is not into work state if usb cable is connected with PC during poweron, so musb device mode is not usable in such case, follows the reasons: -twl4030_phy_resume is not called, so regulators are not enabled i2c access are not enabled usb mode not configurated 2), The kernel warings[1] of regulators 'unbalanced disables' is caused if poweron without usb cable connected with PC or b-device. This patch fixes the two issues above: -power down phy only if no usb cable is connected with PC and b-device -do phy initialization(via __twl4030_phy_resume) if usb cable is connected with PC(vbus event) or another b-device(ID event) in twl4030_usb_probe. This patch also doesn't put VUSB3V1 LDO into active mode in twl4030_usb_ldo_init until VBUS/ID change detected, so we can save more power consumption than before. This patch is verified OK on Beagle board either connected with usb cable or not when poweron. [1]. warnings of 'unbalanced disables' of regulators.

seq_files use the private_data field of a file struct for storing a seq_file structure, data should be stored in seq_file's own private field (e.g. file->private_data->private) Otherwise seq_release() will free the private data when the file is closed.

We need to make sure that only the first do_signal() to be handled on the way out syscall will bother with syscall restarts; additionally, the check on the "signal has user handler" path had been wrong - compare with restart prevention in sigreturn()...

Use force_sigsegv() rather than force_sig(SIGSEGV, ...) as the former resets the SEGV handler pointer which will kill the process, rather than leaving it open to an infinite loop if the SEGV handler itself caused a SEGV signal.

a) sa_handler might be maliciously set to point to kernel memory; blindly dereferencing it in FDPIC case is a Bad Idea(tm). b) I'm not sure you need that set_fs(USER_DS) there at all, but if you do, you'd better do it *before* checking the frame you've decided to use with access_ok(), lest sigaltstack() becomes a convenient roothole.
