We presently deadlock in low-latency mode because the receive code holds port.lock while calling into the tty code to perform echoing. The tty code calls back into the driver, which then takes port.lock. Fix that by dropping the lock around the echo call.

Frank Fricke reported that hostfs does not verify that a chmod +s, for instance, is done by a sufficiently privileged user, as long as the UML kernel itself can complete the operation on the host. So, for instance, if UML is run as root and under /mnt/host we have a hostfs mount, this works successfully: paolo@zion:~ (0)$ chmod 4755 /mnt/host/bin/bash paolo@zion:~ (0)$ ll /mnt/host/bin/bash -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 662724 2004-10-20 02:15 /mnt/host/bin/bash* (bash refuses running as setuid, but you could have another shell on the host, as dash or whatever). In general, if UML is run as uid 500 on the host, a hostfs mount is done and under the hostfs mount there is a file with uid 500 on the host, I can freely make it setuid (if it's executable). This is especially bad when UML is run as root (which you should not do), but is a problem in general, since it allows any user to create setuid 500 (in this example) executables on the host filesystem. Finally, while I was looking at the chmod() implementation, I spotted a kludge in the code and explained it with a comment.

When a task is put to sleep, it is dequeued from the runqueue while it is still running. The problem is that one some arches that have non-atomic scheduling, the runqueue lock can be dropped and retaken in schedule() before the task actually schedules off, and wait_task_inactive did not account for this.

Noted by David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Here's a fix for the ppc64 crash during boot. This corrects the offending function to use more conventional error codes. I'll follow up with return code cleanups for the entire module, and for RTAS code, since these are probably too big for 2.6.11.

The fix was just trying to hide the real bug, which was in an old udev script. The change made matters worse. Cset exclude: pavenis@latnet.lv[torvalds]|ChangeSet|20050202164823|05506

mousedev_packet() clears list->ready too early when called with "tail == head - 1". The effect is that the last mouse event from the hardware isn't reported to userspace until another hardware mouse event arrives. This can make the left mouse button get stuck when tapping on a touchpad. When this happens, the butten doesn't unstick until you interact with the touchpad again.

As 'i' and 'host->id' are of different types (signed vs. unsigned), we need a cast. Eventually host->id should probably be made unsigned, but this requires further analysis.

NLMSG_GOODSIZE specifies a good default size for the skb tailroom used in netlink messages when the size is unknown at the time of the allocation. The current value doesn't make much sense anymore because skb_shared_info isn't taken into account which means that depending on the architecture NLMSG_GOOSIZE can exceed PAGE_SIZE resulting in a waste of almost a complete page. Using SKB_MAXORDER solves this potential leak at the cost of slightly smaller but safer sizes for some architectures. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.

another patch which I think should go in 2.6.11, it fixes a crash when unloading, then reloading iptable_nat. ip_nat_core doesn't clear the status bits in struct ip_conntrack on module unload, but zeroes out the nat area. When the module is loaded again and a connection times out ip_nat_cleanup_conntrack tries to list_del the zeroed list-head and crashes. There are probably more conditions under which it can crash or cause other misbehaviour. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Jamal asked me to add back the call to pskb_expand_head before 2.6.11. This fixes a regression caused by my tc action cleanup patches, the tc actions most not replace packets, so it must prevent netfilter from doing so.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre A more elegant solution could be applied which would require more work. However there is only one platform using both chips (Lubbock) and half of the SA1111 features are unusable due to botched DMA support at the PCB level anyway. Therefore this solution should be sufficient for now. Also removed the SADIV defines which use would not constitute good programming practice. Divisors should be computed directly in the code especially since different PXA2xx versions have different clock source frequencies. No in-tree driver uses them so this is low impact.. Finally changed alignment to fit rest of file. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre Signed-off-by: Russell King
