Fix check for bad address; use macro instead of open-coding two checks. Taken from RHEL4 kernel update. From: Ernie Petrides <petrides@redhat.com> For background, the BAD_ADDR() macro should return TRUE if the address is TASK_SIZE, because that's the lowest address that is *not* valid for user-space mappings. The macro was correct in binfmt_aout.c but was wrong for the "equal to" case in binfmt_elf.c. There were two in-line validations of user-space addresses in binfmt_elf.c, which have been appropriately converted to use the corrected BAD_ADDR() macro in the patch you posted yesterday. Note that the size checks against TASK_SIZE are okay as coded. The additional changes that I propose are below. These are in the error paths for bad ELF entry addresses once load_elf_binary() has already committed to exec'ing the new image (following the tearing down of the task's original address space). The 1st hunk deals with the interp-side of the outer "if". There were two problems here. The printk() should be removed because this path can be triggered at will by a bogus interpreter image created and used by a malicious user. Further, the error code should not be ENOEXEC, because that causes the loop in search_binary_handler() to continue trying other exec handlers (twice, in fact). But it's too late for this to work correctly, because the user address space has already been torn down, and an exec() failure cannot be returned to the user code because the code no longer exists. The only recovery is to force a SIGSEGV, but it's best to terminate the search loop immediately. I somewhat arbitrarily chose EINVAL as a fallback error code, but any error returned by load_elf_interp() will override that (but this value will never be seen by user-space). The 2nd hunk deals with the non-interp-side of the outer "if". There were two problems here as well. The SIGSEGV needs to be forced, because a prior sigaction() syscall might have set the associated disposition to SIG_IGN. And the ENOEXEC should be changed to EINVAL as described above.

Currently the behaviour of disable_xfrm is inconsistent between locally generated and forwarded packets. For locally generated packets disable_xfrm disables the policy lookup if it is set on the output device, for forwarded traffic however it looks at the input device. This makes it impossible to disable xfrm on all devices but a dummy device and use normal routing to direct traffic to that device. Always use the output device when checking disable_xfrm.

This is confirmed to fix a hang due to PCI resource conflicts with setting up the Cardbus bridge on old laptops with the 440MX chipsets. Original report by Alessio Sangalli, lspci debugging help by Pekka Enberg, and trial patch suggested by Daniel Ritz: "From the docs available i would _guess_ this thing is really similar to the 82443BX/82371AB combination. at least the SMBus base address register is hidden at the very same place (32bit at 0x90 in function 3 of the "south" brigde)" The dang thing is largely undocumented, but the patch was corroborated by Asit Mallick: "I am trying to find the register information. 440MX is an integration of 440BX north-bridge without AGP and PIIX4E (82371EB). PIIX4 quirk should cover the ACPI and SMBus related I/O registers." and verified to fix the problem by Alessio.

The nVidia CK804 PCI-E chipset supports the AER extended capability but sometimes fails to link it (with some BIOS or after a warm reboot). It makes the AER cap invisible to pci_find_ext_capability(). The patch adds a quirk to set the missing bit that controls the linking of the capability. By the way, it removes the corresponding code in the myri10ge driver. Signed-off-by: Brice Goglin <brice@myri.com> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>

The naming of the constant defined for PCI ID 1022:7450 does not seem to match the information at http://pciids.sourceforge.net/: http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/iii/?i=1022 There 1022:7450 is listed as "AMD-8131 PCI-X Bridge" while 1022:7451 is listed as "AMD-8131 PCI-X IOAPIC". Yet, the current definition for 0x7450 is PCI_DEVICE_ID_AMD_8131_APIC. It seems to me like that name should map to 0x7451, while a name like PCI_DEVICE_ID_AMD_8131_BRIDGE should map to 0x7450.

fcntl(F_SETSIG) no longer works on leases because lease_release_private_callback() gets called as the lease is copied in order to initialise it. The problem is that lease_alloc() performs an unnecessary initialisation, which sets the lease_manager_ops. Avoid the problem by allocating the target lease structure using locks_alloc_lock().

The tc actions increased the size of struct tc_police, which broke compatibility with old iproute binaries since both the act_police and the old NET_CLS_POLICE code check for an exact size match. Since the new members are not even used, the simple fix is to also accept the size of the old structure. Dumping is not affected since old userspace will receive a bigger structure, which is handled fine.

Commit 7b2fd697427e73c81d5fa659efd91bd07d303b0e in the historical GIT tree stopped calling the readdir member of a file_operations struct with the big kernel lock held, and fixed up all the readdir functions to do their own locking. However, that change added calls to unlock_kernel() in vxfs_readdir, but no call to lock_kernel(). Fix this by adding a call to lock_kernel().
