The sclp_ctl_ioctl_sccb function uses two copy_from_user calls to retrieve the sclp request from user space. The first copy_from_user fetches the length of the request which is stored in the first two bytes of the request. The second copy_from_user gets the complete sclp request, but this copies the length field a second time. A malicious user may have changed the length in the meantime.

There is a race with multi-threaded applications between context switch and pagetable upgrade. In switch_mm() a new user_asce is built from mm->pgd and mm->context.asce_bits, w/o holding any locks. A concurrent mmap with a pagetable upgrade on another thread in crst_table_upgrade() could already have set new asce_bits, but not yet the new mm->pgd. This would result in a corrupt user_asce in switch_mm(), and eventually in a kernel panic from a translation exception. Fix this by storing the complete asce instead of just the asce_bits, which can then be read atomically from switch_mm(), so that it either sees the old value or the new value, but no mixture. Both cases are OK. Having the old value would result in a page fault on access to the higher level memory, but the fault handler would see the new mm->pgd, if it was a valid access after the mmap on the other thread has completed. So as worst-case scenario we would have a page fault loop for the racing thread until the next time slice. Also remove dead code and simplify the upgrade/downgrade path, there are no upgrades from 2 levels, and only downgrades from 3 levels for compat tasks. There are also no concurrent upgrades, because the mmap_sem is held with down_write() in do_mmap, so the flush and table checks during upgrade can be removed.

After a failure during registration of the dma_table (because of the function being in error state) we free its memory but don't reset the associated pointer to zero. When we then receive a notification from firmware (about the function being in error state) we'll try to walk and free the dma_table again. Fix this by resetting the dma_table pointer. In addition to that make sure that we free the iommu_bitmap when appropriate.

This gets rid of the horrible notion of having that struct inode *ptmx_inode be the linchpin of the interface between the pty code and devpts. By de-emphasizing the ptmx inode, a lot of things actually get cleaner, and we will have a much saner way forward. In particular, this will allow us to associate with any particular devpts instance at open-time, and not be artificially tied to one particular ptmx inode. The patch itself is actually fairly straightforward, and apart from some locking and return path cleanups it's pretty mechanical: - the interfaces that devpts exposes all take "struct pts_fs_info *" instead of "struct inode *ptmx_inode" now. NOTE! The "struct pts_fs_info" thing is a completely opaque structure as far as the pty driver is concerned: it's still declared entirely internally to devpts. So the pty code can't actually access it in any way, just pass it as a "cookie" to the devpts code. - the "look up the pts fs info" is now a single clear operation, that also does the reference count increment on the pts superblock. So "devpts_add/del_ref()" is gone, and replaced by a "lookup and get ref" operation (devpts_get_ref(inode)), along with a "put ref" op (devpts_put_ref()). - the pty master "tty->driver_data" field now contains the pts_fs_info, not the ptmx inode. - because we don't care about the ptmx inode any more as some kind of base index, the ref counting can now drop the inode games - it just gets the ref on the superblock. - the pts_fs_info now has a back-pointer to the super_block. That's so that we can easily look up the information we actually need. Although quite often, the pts fs info was actually all we wanted, and not having to look it up based on some magical inode makes things more straightforward. In particular, now that "devpts_get_ref(inode)" operation should really be the *only* place we need to look up what devpts instance we're associated with, and we do it exactly once, at ptmx_open() time. The other side of this is that one ptmx node could now be associated with multiple different devpts instances - you could have a single /dev/ptmx node, and then have multiple mount namespaces with their own instances of devpts mounted on /dev/pts/. And that's all perfectly sane in a model where we just look up the pts instance at open time. This will eventually allow us to get rid of our odd single-vs-multiple pts instance model, but this patch in itself changes no semantics, only an internal binding model.

We don't attempt to read past that valid size because that causes some devices to crash. However, some devices do have data past that valid size. For example, Chelsio adapters contain two VPD structures, and the driver needs both of them. Add pci_set_vpd_size(). If a driver knows it is safe to read past the end of the VPD data structure at offset 0, it can use pci_set_vpd_size() to allow access to as much data as it needs.

Make sure that s390 appears to be a big endian machine by defining this config option. Without this s390 appears to be little endian as seen by e.g. the recordmount script: "perl ./scripts/recordmcount.pl "s390" "little" "64"" This has no practical impact within the script since the endian variable is only evaluated for mips. However there are already a couple of common code places which evaluate this config option. None of them is relevant for s390 currently though.

arch_spin_lock_wait_flags() checks if a spinlock is not held before trying a compare and swap instruction. If the lock is unlocked it tries the compare and swap instruction, however if a different cpu grabbed the lock in the meantime the instruction will fail as expected. Subsequently the arch_spin_lock_wait_flags() incorrectly tries to figure out if the cpu that holds the lock is running. However it is using the wrong cpu number for this (-1) and then will also yield the current cpu to the wrong cpu. Fix this by adding a missing continue statement.

dcssblk_remove_store() holds the dcssblk_devices_sem semaphore while calling device_unregister(), which in turn tries to acquire the kernfs kn->dev_map rwsem for the device sysfs subtree. The same rwsem is also acquired when using the per-device sysfs attributes in the device sub-tree, and the attribute handlers then also acquire the dcssblk_devices_sem. This can lead to a deadlock when removing a DCSS while concurrently reading from / writing to one of its sysfs attributes.
