nouveau_bios_fp_mode() zeroes the mode struct before filling in relevant entries. This nukes the mode id initialised by drm_mode_create(), and causes warnings from idr when we try to remove the mode. Signed-off-by: Ben Skeggs <bskeggs@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

It makes sense for a BO to move after a process has requested exclusive RW access on it (e.g. because the BO used to be located in unmappable VRAM and we intercepted the CPU access from the fault handler). If we let the ghost object inherit cpu_writers from the original object, ttm_bo_release_list() will raise a kernel BUG when the ghost object is destroyed. This can be reproduced with the nouveau driver on nv5x.

There's a situation where the nohz balancer will try to wake itself: cpu-x is idle which is also ilb_cpu got a scheduler tick during idle and the nohz_kick_needed() in trigger_load_balance() checks for rq_x->nr_running which might not be zero (because of someone waking a task on this rq etc) and this leads to the situation of the cpu-x sending a kick to itself. And this can cause a lockup. Avoid this by not marking ourself eligible for kicking.

A userspace could submit a buffer with 0 length to be written to the host. Prevent such a situation. This was not needed previously, but recent changes in the way write() works exposed this condition to trigger a virtqueue event to the host, causing a NULL buffer to be sent across.

I found this while working on a Linux agent for spice, the symptom I was seeing was select blocking on the spice vdagent virtio serial port even though there were messages queued up there. virtio_console's port_fops_poll checks port->inbuf != NULL to determine if read won't block. However if an application reads enough bytes from inbuf through port_fops_read, to empty the current port->inbuf, port->inbuf will be NULL even though there may be buffers left in the virtqueue. This causes poll() to block even though there is data to be read, this patch fixes this by using will_read_block(port) instead of the port->inbuf != NULL check.

"param->u.wpa_associate.wpa_ie_len" comes from the user. We should check it so that the copy_from_user() doesn't overflow the buffer. Also further down in the function, we assume that if "param->u.wpa_associate.wpa_ie_len" is set then "abyWPAIE[0]" is initialized. To make that work, I changed the test here to say that if "wpa_ie_len" is set then "wpa_ie" has to be a valid pointer or we return -EINVAL. Oddly, we only use the first element of the abyWPAIE[] array. So I suspect there may be some other issues in this function.

This reverts commit 96d592ed. The netfilter hook seems to be misused and may leak skbs in situations when NF_HOOK returns NF_STOLEN. It may not filter everything as expected. Also the ethernet bridge tables are not yet capable to understand batman-adv packet correctly. It was only added for testing purposes and can be removed again.

Commit 461c3177(into 2.6.36-v3) is put forward to power down phy if no usb cable is connected, but does introduce the two issues below: 1), phy is not into work state if usb cable is connected with PC during poweron, so musb device mode is not usable in such case, follows the reasons: -twl4030_phy_resume is not called, so regulators are not enabled i2c access are not enabled usb mode not configurated 2), The kernel warings[1] of regulators 'unbalanced disables' is caused if poweron without usb cable connected with PC or b-device. This patch fixes the two issues above: -power down phy only if no usb cable is connected with PC and b-device -do phy initialization(via __twl4030_phy_resume) if usb cable is connected with PC(vbus event) or another b-device(ID event) in twl4030_usb_probe. This patch also doesn't put VUSB3V1 LDO into active mode in twl4030_usb_ldo_init until VBUS/ID change detected, so we can save more power consumption than before. This patch is verified OK on Beagle board either connected with usb cable or not when poweron. [1]. warnings of 'unbalanced disables' of regulators.

During heavy aperture thrashing we may be forced to wait upon several active objects during eviction. The active list may be the last reference to these objects and so the action of waiting upon one of them may cause another to be freed (and itself unbound).

a) sa_handler might be maliciously set to point to kernel memory; blindly dereferencing it in FDPIC case is a Bad Idea(tm). b) I'm not sure you need that set_fs(USER_DS) there at all, but if you do, you'd better do it *before* checking the frame you've decided to use with access_ok(), lest sigaltstack() becomes a convenient roothole.

Commit 4969c119 ("mm: fix swapin race condition") is now agreed to be incomplete. There's a race, not very much less likely than the original race envisaged, in which it is further necessary to check that the swapcache page's swap has not changed. Here's the reasoning: cast in terms of reuse_swap_page(), but probably could be reformulated to rely on try_to_free_swap() instead, or on swapoff+swapon. A, faults into do_swap_page(): does page1 = lookup_swap_cache(swap1) and comes through the lock_page(page1). B, a racing thread of the same process, faults on the same address: does page1 = lookup_swap_cache(swap1) and now waits in lock_page(page1), but for whatever reason is unlucky not to get the lock any time soon. A carries on through do_swap_page(), a write fault, but cannot reuse the swap page1 (another reference to swap1). Unlocks the page1 (but B doesn't get it yet), does COW in do_wp_page(), page2 now in that pte. C, perhaps the parent of A+B, comes in and write faults the same swap page1 into its mm, reuse_swap_page() succeeds this time, swap1 is freed. kswapd comes in after some time (B still unlucky) and swaps out some pages from A+B and C: it allocates the original swap1 to page2 in A+B, and some other swap2 to the original page1 now in C. But does not immediately free page1 (actually it couldn't: B holds a reference), leaving it in swap cache for now. B at last gets the lock on page1, hooray! Is PageSwapCache(page1)? Yes. Is pte_same(*page_table, orig_pte)? Yes, because page2 has now been given the swap1 which page1 used to have. So B proceeds to insert page1 into A+B's page_table, though its content now belongs to C, quite different from what A wrote there. B ought to have checked that page1's swap was still swap1.

Coda's REQ_* defines were renamed to avoid clashes with the block layer (commit 4aeefdc6: "coda: fixup clash with block layer REQ_* defines"). However one was missed and response messages are no longer matched with requests and waiting threads are no longer woken up. This patch fixes this.

Unlike the other targets, alpha sets _one_ sigframe and buggers off until the next syscall/interrupt, even if more signals are pending. It leads to quite a few unpleasant inconsistencies, starting with SIGSEGV potentially arriving not where it should and including e.g. mess with sigsuspend(); consider two pending signals blocked until sigsuspend() unblocks them. We pick the first one; then, if we are hit by interrupt while in the handler, we process the second one as well. If we are not, and if no syscalls had been made, we get out of the first handler and leave the second signal pending; normally sigreturn() would've picked it anyway, but here it starts with restoring the original mask and voila - the second signal is blocked again. On everything else we get both delivered consistently. It's actually easy to fix; the only thing to watch out for is prevention of double syscall restart. Fortunately, the idea I've nicked from arm fix by rmk works just fine... Testcase demonstrating the behaviour in question; on alpha we get one or both flags set (usually one), on everything else both are always set. #include <signal.h> #include <stdio.h> int had1, had2; void f1(int sig) { had1 = 1; } void f2(int sig) { had2 = 1; } main() { sigset_t set1, set2; sigemptyset(&set1); sigemptyset(&set2); sigaddset(&set2, 1); sigaddset(&set2, 2); signal(1, f1); signal(2, f2); sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, &set2, NULL); raise(1); raise(2); sigsuspend(&set1); printf("had1:%d had2:%d\n", had1, had2); } Tested-by: Michael Cree <mcree@orcon.net.nz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Matt Turner <mattst88@gmail.com>

The way sigreturn() is implemented on alpha breaks PTRACE_SYSCALL, all way back to 1.3.95 when alpha has grown PTRACE_SYSCALL support. What happens is direct return to ret_from_syscall, in order to bypass mangling of a3 (error indicator) and prevent other mutilations of registers (e.g. by syscall restart). That's fine, but... the entire TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE codepath is kept separate on alpha and post-syscall stopping/notifying the tracer is after the syscall. And the normal path we are forcibly switching to doesn't have it. So we end up with *one* stop in traced sigreturn() vs. two in other syscalls. And yes, strace is visibly broken by that; try to strace the following #include <signal.h> #include <stdio.h> void f(int sig) {} main() { signal(SIGHUP, f); raise(SIGHUP); write(1, "eeeek\n", 6); } and watch the show. The close(1) = 405 in the end of strace output is coming from return value of write() (6 == __NR_close on alpha) and syscall number of exit_group() (__NR_exit_group == 405 there). The fix is fairly simple - the only thing we end up missing is the call of syscall_trace() and we can tell whether we'd been called from the SYSCALL_TRACE path by checking ra value. Since we are setting the switch_stack up (that's what sys_sigreturn() does), we have the right environment for calling syscall_trace() - just before we call undo_switch_stack() and return. Since undo_switch_stack() will overwrite s0 anyway, we can use it to store the result of "has it been called from SYSCALL_TRACE path?" check. The same thing applies in rt_sigreturn().
