Another patch for 2.6.11.x: already in main tree, fixes kernel panic on receive with WAN cards based on Hitachi SCA/SCA-II: N2, C101, PCI200SYN. The attached patch fixes NULL pointer dereference on RX.

It seems to me that in the VIA Rhine device driver the requested irq might not be freed in case the alloc_ring() function fails. alloc_ring() can fail with a ENOMEM return value because of possible pci_alloc_consistent() failures.

On 4-way SMP, about one reboot in twenty hangs while killing processes: exit needs exclusive tasklist_lock, but something still holds read_lock. do_signal_stop race case misses unlock, and fixing it fixes the symptom.

http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4279 Summary: When I try to start vpnc the net/core/skbuff.c:91 crash This check is wrong, gcc optimizes it away: if ((len -= sizeof(pi)) > len) return -EINVAL; This could be responsible for the BUG. If len is 2 or 3 and TUN_NO_PI isn't set it underflows. alloc_skb() allocates len + 2, which is 0 or 1 byte. skb_reserve tries to reserve 2 bytes and things explode in skb_put.

This function, as it's name implies, is supposed to only return IPSEC objects which are in the XFRM_STATE_ACQ ("acquire") state. But it returns any object with the matching sequence number. This is wrong and confuses IPSEC daemons to no end. [XFRM]: xfrm_find_acq_byseq should only return XFRM_STATE_ACQ states.

It seems to me that if in the amd8111e_open() fuction dev->irq isn't zero and the irq request succeeds it might not get released anymore. Specifically, on failure of the amd8111e_restart() call the function returns -ENOMEM without releasing the irq. The amd8111e_restart() function can fail because of various pci_alloc_consistent() and dev_alloc_skb() calls in amd8111e_init_ring() which is being called by amd8111e_restart. 1374 if(dev->irq ==0 || request_irq(dev->irq, amd8111e_interrupt, SA_SHIRQ, 1375 dev->name, dev)) 1376 return -EAGAIN; Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Wright <chrisw@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

As of 2.6.11, I have no output out of the rear right speaker of my 4.1 surround sound setup. I am using snd-intel8x0 based on a Realtek ALC650F chip on an nvidia motherboard. A gentoo user with completely different hardware also ran into this: http://bugs.gentoo.org/84276 2.6.11-mm3 fixes this problem and I've identified the specific fix, which is already in the ALSA development tree. An ALSA developer asked me to submit the fix for 2.6.11.x when I'd found it, so here it is :) -- AC97 Codec Fix stereo mutes on Surround volume control.

I'm guessing my chip revision doesn't support WOL, it's a crappy noname card. It does seem as if rhine_power_init checks quirks for rqWOL before touching any registers. Should rhine_shutdown do the same? Proposed patch below, which resolves the problem on my system. Check to make sure WOL is supported before setting it up in rhine_shutdown.

Backport of fix described below. From: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Fix bug #4223. OK, this happened because we got preempted before sis900_mii_probe finished setting the sis_priv->mii. Theoretically this can happen with SMP as well but I suppose the number of SMP machines with sis900 is fairly small. Anyway, the fix is to make sure that sis900_mii_probe is done before the device can be opened. This patch does it by moving the setup before register_netdevice. Since the netdev name is not available before register_netdev, I've changed the relevant printk's to use pci_name instead. Note that one of those printk's may be called after register_netdev as well.

This wrecks the ipv6 modular build for a lot of people. In fact, since I always build ipv6 modular I am surprised I never hit this. My best guess is that my compiler is optimizing the reference away, but that can never be depended upon and the symbol export really is needed. [TCP]: Put back tcp_timer_bug_msg[] symbol export. It is needed for tcp_reset_xmit_timer(), which is invoked by tcp_prequeue() which is invoked from tcp_ipv6.c Signed-off-by: Hideaki YOSHIFUJI <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

While working on the saa7110 driver I found a problem with the way various video drivers (found on Zoran-based boards) prepare i2c messages to be used by i2c_transfer. The drivers improperly copy the i2c client flags as the message flags, while both sets are mostly unrelated. The net effect in this case is to trigger an I2C block read instead of the expected I2C block write. The fix is simply not to pass any flag, because none are needed. I think this patch qualifies hands down as a "critical bug fix" to be included in whatever bug-fix-only trees exist these days. As far as I can see, all Zoran-based boards are broken in 2.6.11 without this patch.

This is a rewrite of the saa7110_write_block function, which was plain broken in the case where the underlying adapter supports I2C_FUNC_I2C.

Here's a patch that will work for both PPC and PPC64. The proper way to fix this in mainline is to merge -mm's cpu_has_feature patch, but for the stable 2.6.11-series, this much less intrusive (i.e. just the pure bugfix, not the cleanup part).
