      cpuset: update top cpuset's mems after adding a node · f481891f
      Miao Xie authored 
      After adding a node into the machine, top cpuset's mems isn't updated.

By reviewing the code, we found that the update function

  cpuset_track_online_nodes()

was invoked after node_states[N_ONLINE] changes.  It is wrong because
N_ONLINE just means node has pgdat, and if node has/added memory, we use
N_HIGH_MEMORY.  So, We should invoke the update function after
node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] changes, just like its commit says.

This patch fixes it.  And we use notifier of memory hotplug instead of
direct calling of cpuset_track_online_nodes().

      eCryptfs: Allocate up to two scatterlists for crypto ops on keys · ac97b9f9
      Michael Halcrow authored 
      I have received some reports of out-of-memory errors on some older AMD
architectures.  These errors are what I would expect to see if
crypt_stat->key were split between two separate pages.  eCryptfs should
not assume that any of the memory sent through virt_to_scatterlist() is
all contained in a single page, and so this patch allocates two
scatterlist structs instead of one when processing keys.  I have received
confirmation from one person affected by this bug that this patch resolves
the issue for him, and so I am submitting it for inclusion in a future
stable release.

Note that virt_to_scatterlist() runs sg_init_table() on the scatterlist
structs passed to it, so the calls to sg_init_table() in
decrypt_passphrase_encrypted_session_key() are redundant.

      lcd: fix oops if driver only interested in .set_power · b3b4dc88
      Ben Dooks authored 
      The LCD driver core calls LCD drivers when either the blanking state or
the display mode has changed, but does not make any check to see if the
called driver has a .set_mode method.

This means if a driver only has a .set_power method then the system will
OOPS on changing mode (and with the console semaphore held so you cannot
easily see the problem).

Fix the problem by ensuring that either callback is valid before use.

      pxa2xx_spi: bugfix full duplex dma data corruption · 393df744
      Ned Forrester authored 
      Fixes a data corruption bug in pxa2xx_spi.c when operating in full duplex
mode with DMA and using buffers that overlap.

SPI transmit and receive buffers are allowed to be the same or to overlap.
 However, this driver fails if such overlap is attempted in DMA mode
because it maps the rx and tx buffers in the wrong order.  By mapping
DMA_FROM_DEVICE (read) before DMA_TO_DEVICE (write), it invalidates the
cache before flushing it, thus discarding data which should have been
transmitted.

The patch corrects the order of mapping.  This bug exists in all versions
of pxa2xx_spi.c; similar bugs are in the drivers for two other SPI
controllers (au1500, imx).

A version of this patch has been tested on kernel 2.6.20 using
verification of loopback data with: random transfer length, random
bits-per-word, random positive offsets (both larger and smaller than
transfer length) between the start of the rx and tx buffers, and varying
clock rates.

      kunmap() takes as argument the struct page that orginally got kmap()'d,
however the sg_miter_stop() function passed it the kernel virtual address
instead, resulting in weird stuff.

Somehow I ended up fixing this bug by accident while looking for a bug in
the same area.

      reintroduce accept4 · de11defe
      Ulrich Drepper authored 
      Introduce a new accept4() system call.  The addition of this system call
matches analogous changes in 2.6.27 (dup3(), evenfd2(), signalfd4(),
inotify_init1(), epoll_create1(), pipe2()) which added new system calls
that differed from analogous traditional system calls in adding a flags
argument that can be used to access additional functionality.

The accept4() system call is exactly the same as accept(), except that
it adds a flags bit-mask argument.  Two flags are initially implemented.
(Most of the new system calls in 2.6.27 also had both of these flags.)

SOCK_CLOEXEC causes the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag to be enabled
for the new file descriptor returned by accept4().  This is a useful
security feature to avoid leaking information in a multithreaded
program where one thread is doing an accept() at the same time as
another thread is doing a fork() plus exec().  More details here:
http://udrepper.livejournal.com/20407.html "Secure File Descriptor Handling",
Ulrich Drepper).

The other flag is SOCK_NONBLOCK, which causes the O_NONBLOCK flag
to be enabled on the new open file description created by accept4().
(This flag is merely a convenience, saving the use of additional calls
fcntl(F_GETFL) and fcntl (F_SETFL) to achieve the same result.

Here's a test program.  Works on x86-32.  Should work on x86-64, but
I (mtk) don't have a system to hand to test with.

It tests accept4() with each of the four possible combinations of
SOCK_CLOEXEC and SOCK_NONBLOCK set/clear in 'flags', and verifies
that the appropriate flags are set on the file descriptor/open file
description returned by accept4().

I tested Ulrich's patch in this thread by applying against 2.6.28-rc2,
and it passes according to my test program.

      sysvipc: fix the ipc structures initialization · e00b4ff7
      Nadia Derbey authored 
      A problem was found while reviewing the code after Bugzilla bug
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11796.

In ipc_addid(), the newly allocated ipc structure is inserted into the
ipcs tree (i.e made visible to readers) without locking it.  This is not
correct since its initialization continues after it has been inserted in
the tree.

This patch moves the ipc structure lock initialization + locking before
the actual insertion.
