I had a hard time trying to disable it anyway ;-) The problem this time is lots of code assuming that a call to add_uevent_var() will guarantee that env->buflen > 0. This is not true if CONFIG_HOTPLUG is unset. So things like this end up overwriting env->envp_idx because the array index is -1: if (add_uevent_var(env, "MODALIAS=")) return -ENOMEM; len = input_print_modalias(&env->buf[env->buflen - 1], sizeof(env->buf) - env->buflen, dev, 0); Don't know what the best action is, given that there seem to be a *lot* of this around the kernel. This patch "fixes" the problem for me, but I don't know if it can be considered an appropriate fix. [ It is the correct fix for now, for 3.7 forcing CONFIG_HOTPLUG to always be on is the longterm fix, but it's too late for 3.6 and older kernels to resolve this that way - gregkh ] Reported-by:

commit 74f330bc upstream. Since commit 30832ab5 ("mmc: sdhci: Always pass clock request value zero to set_clock host op") was merged, esdhc_set_clock starts hitting "if (clock == 0)" where ESDHC_SYSTEM_CONTROL has been operated. This causes SDHCI card-detection function being broken. Fix the regression by moving "if (clock == 0)" above ESDHC_SYSTEM_CONTROL operation. Signed-off-by:

commit a6fa941d upstream. Don't mess with file refcounts (or keep a reference to file, for that matter) in perf_event. Use explicit refcount of its own instead. Deal with the race between the final reference to event going away and new children getting created for it by use of atomic_long_inc_not_zero() in inherit_event(); just have the latter free what it had allocated and return NULL, that works out just fine (children of siblings of something doomed are created as singletons, same as if the child of leader had been created and immediately killed).

commit aa209eef upstream. Hi, This patch fixes a bug with driver failing to negotiate a connection. The bug was traced to commit 203e4615 staging: vt6656: removed custom definitions of Ethernet packet types In that patch, definitions in include/linux/if_ether.h replaced ones in tether.h which had both big and little endian definitions. include/linux/if_ether.h only refers to big endian values, cpu_to_be16 should be used for the correct endian architectures.

commit 4c054ba6 upstream. This patch fixes a long-standing bug with SCSI overflow handling where se_cmd->data_length was incorrectly being re-assigned to the larger CDB extracted allocation length, resulting in a number of fabric level errors that would end up causing a session reset in most cases. So instead now: - Only re-assign se_cmd->data_length durining UNDERFLOW (to use the smaller value) - Use existing se_cmd->data_length for OVERFLOW (to use the smaller value) This fix has been tested with the following CDB to generate an SCSI overflow: sg_raw -r512 /dev/sdc 28 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 9 0 Tested using iscsi-target, tcm_qla2xxx, loopback and tcm_vhost fabric ports. Here is a bit more detail on each case: - iscsi-target: Bug with open-iscsi with overflow, sg_raw returns -3584 bytes of data. - tcm_qla2xxx: Working as expected, returnins 512 bytes of data - loopback: sg_raw returns CHECK_CONDITION, from overflow rejection in transport_generic_map_mem_to_cmd() - tcm_vhost: Same as loopback Reported-by:

commit 8335eafc upstream. After calling into the lower filesystem to do a rename, the lower target inode's attributes were not copied up to the eCryptfs target inode. This resulted in the eCryptfs target inode staying around, rather than being evicted, because i_nlink was not updated for the eCryptfs inode. This also meant that eCryptfs didn't do the final iput() on the lower target inode so it stayed around, as well. This would result in a failure to free up space occupied by the target file in the rename() operation. Both target inodes would eventually be evicted when the eCryptfs filesystem was unmounted. This patch calls fsstack_copy_attr_all() after the lower filesystem does its ->rename() so that important inode attributes, such as i_nlink, are updated at the eCryptfs layer. ecryptfs_evict_inode() is now called and eCryptfs can drop its final reference on the lower inode. http://launchpad.net/bugs/561129Signed-off-by:

commit b161dfa6 upstream. IBM reported a soft lockup after applying the fix for the rename_lock deadlock. Commit c83ce989 ("VFS: Fix the nfs sillyrename regression in kernel 2.6.38") was found to be the culprit. The nfs sillyrename fix used DCACHE_DISCONNECTED to indicate that the dentry was killed. This flag can be set on non-killed dentries too, which results in infinite retries when trying to traverse the dentry tree. This patch introduces a separate flag: DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED, which is only set in d_kill() and makes try_to_ascend() test only this flag. IBM reported successful test results with this patch.

commit 55815f70 upstream. We already use them for openat() and friends, but fstat() also wants to be able to use O_PATH file descriptors. This should make it more directly comparable to the O_SEARCH of Solaris. Note that you could already do the same thing with "fstatat()" and an empty path, but just doing "fstat()" directly is simpler and faster, so there is no reason not to just allow it directly. See also commit 332a2e12, which did the same thing for fchdir, for the same reasons. Reported-by:

commit 2453f5f9 upstream. If a command completes with a status of CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR, this information should be conveyed to the SCSI mid layer, not dropped on the floor. Unlike a similar bug in the hpsa driver, this bug only affects tape drives and CD and DVD ROM drives in the cciss driver, and to induce it, you have to disconnect (or damage) a cable, so it is not a very likely scenario (which would explain why the bug has gone undetected for the last 10 years.)

commit 6889125b upstream. powernowk8_target() runs off a per-cpu work item and if the cpufreq_policy->cpu is different from the current one, it migrates the kworker to the target CPU by manipulating current->cpus_allowed. The function migrates the kworker back to the original CPU but this is still broken. Workqueue concurrency management requires the kworkers to stay on the same CPU and powernowk8_target() ends up triggerring BUG_ON(rq != this_rq()) in try_to_wake_up_local() if it contends on fidvid_mutex and sleeps. It is unclear why this bug is being reported now. Duncan says it appeared to be a regression of 3.6-rc1 and couldn't reproduce it on 3.5. Bisection seemed to point to 63d95a91 "workqueue: use @pool instead of @gcwq or @cpu where applicable" which is an non-functional change. Given that the reproduce case sometimes took upto days to trigger, it's easy to be misled while bisecting. Maybe something made contention on fidvid_mutex more likely? I don't know. This patch fixes the bug by using work_on_cpu() instead if @pol->cpu isn't the same as the current one. The code assumes that cpufreq_policy->cpu is kept online by the caller, which Rafael tells me is the case. stable: ed48ece2 ("workqueue: reimplement work_on_cpu() using system_wq") should be applied before this; otherwise, the behavior could be horrible.

commit ed48ece2 upstream. The existing work_on_cpu() implementation is hugely inefficient. It creates a new kthread, execute that single function and then let the kthread die on each invocation. Now that system_wq can handle concurrent executions, there's no advantage of doing this. Reimplement work_on_cpu() using system_wq which makes it simpler and way more efficient. stable: While this isn't a fix in itself, it's needed to fix a workqueue related bug in cpufreq/powernow-k8. AFAICS, this shouldn't break other existing users. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit acbb219d ] When tearing down a net namespace, ipv4 mr_table structures are freed without first deactivating their timers. This can result in a crash in run_timer_softirq. This patch mimics the corresponding behaviour in ipv6. Locking and synchronization seem to be adequate. We are about to kfree mrt, so existing code should already make sure that no other references to mrt are pending or can be created by incoming traffic. The functions invoked here do not cause new references to mrt or other race conditions to be created. Invoking del_timer_sync guarantees that ipmr_expire_timer is inactive. Both ipmr_expire_process (whose completion we may have to wait in del_timer_sync) and mroute_clean_tables internally use mfc_unres_lock or other synchronizations when needed, and they both only modify mrt. Tested in Linux 3.4.8. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 20e1db19 ] Non-root user-space processes can send Netlink messages to other processes that are well-known for being subscribed to Netlink asynchronous notifications. This allows ilegitimate non-root process to send forged messages to Netlink subscribers. The userspace process usually verifies the legitimate origin in two ways: a) Socket credentials. If UID != 0, then the message comes from some ilegitimate process and the message needs to be dropped. b) Netlink portID. In general, portID == 0 means that the origin of the messages comes from the kernel. Thus, discarding any message not coming from the kernel. However, ctnetlink sets the portID in event messages that has been triggered by some user-space process, eg. conntrack utility. So other processes subscribed to ctnetlink events, eg. conntrackd, know that the event was triggered by some user-space action. Neither of the two ways to discard ilegitimate messages coming from non-root processes can help for ctnetlink. This patch adds capability validation in case that dst_pid is set in netlink_sendmsg(). This approach is aggressive since existing applications using any Netlink bus to deliver messages between two user-space processes will break. Note that the exception is NETLINK_USERSOCK, since it is reserved for netlink-to-netlink userspace communication. Still, if anyone wants that his Netlink bus allows netlink-to-netlink userspace, then they can set NL_NONROOT_SEND. However, by default, I don't think it makes sense to allow to use NETLINK_ROUTE to communicate two processes that are sending no matter what information that is not related to link/neighbouring/routing. They should be using NETLINK_USERSOCK instead for that. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 3592aaeb ] The LLC code wrongly returns 0, i.e. "success", when the socket is zapped. Together with the uninitialized uaddrlen pointer argument from sys_getsockname this leads to an arbitrary memory leak of up to 128 bytes kernel stack via the getsockname() syscall. Return an error instead when the socket is zapped to prevent the info leak. Also remove the unnecessary memset(0). We don't directly write to the memory pointed by uaddr but memcpy() a local structure at the end of the function that is properly initialized. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 7f5c3e3a ] Here's a quote of the comment about the BUG macro from asm-generic/bug.h: Don't use BUG() or BUG_ON() unless there's really no way out; one example might be detecting data structure corruption in the middle of an operation that can't be backed out of. If the (sub)system can somehow continue operating, perhaps with reduced functionality, it's probably not BUG-worthy. If you're tempted to BUG(), think again: is completely giving up really the *only* solution? There are usually better options, where users don't need to reboot ASAP and can mostly shut down cleanly. In our case, the status flag of a ring buffer slot is managed from both sides, the kernel space and the user space. This means that even though the kernel side might work as expected, the user space screws up and changes this flag right between the send(2) is triggered when the flag is changed to TP_STATUS_SENDING and a given skb is destructed after some time. Then, this will hit the BUG macro. As David suggested, the best solution is to simply remove this statement since it cannot be used for kernel side internal consistency checks. I've tested it and the system still behaves /stable/ in this case, so in accordance with the above comment, we should rather remove it. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 7e6d06f0 ] Currently an skb requiring TSO may not fit within a minimum-size TX queue. The TX queue selected for the skb may stall and trigger the TX watchdog repeatedly (since the problem skb will be retried after the TX reset). This issue is designated as CVE-2012-3412. Set the maximum number of TSO segments for our devices to 100. This should make no difference to behaviour unless the actual MSS is less than about 700. Increase the minimum TX queue size accordingly to allow for 2 worst-case skbs, so that there will definitely be space to add an skb after we wake a queue. To avoid invalidating existing configurations, change efx_ethtool_set_ringparam() to fix up values that are too small rather than returning -EINVAL. Signed-off-by:
