This patch augments the pstate transition code to error out (instead of returning 0) when an incorrect pstate is provided.

Before this patch if we failed the vid transition would still try to submit the "new" frequencies to cpufreq. That is incorrect - also we could submit a non-existing frequency value which would cause cpufreq to crash. The ultimate fix is in cpufreq to deal with incorrect values, but this patch improves the error recovery in the AMD powernowk8 driver. The failure that was reported was as follows: powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3700+ (1 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00) powernow-k8: fid 0x2 (1000 MHz), vid 0x12 powernow-k8: fid 0xa (1800 MHz), vid 0xa powernow-k8: fid 0xc (2000 MHz), vid 0x8 powernow-k8: fid 0xe (2200 MHz), vid 0x8 Marking TSC unstable due to cpufreq changes powernow-k8: fid trans failed, fid 0x2, curr 0x0 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff880807e07b78 IP: [<ffffffff81479163>] cpufreq_stats_update+0x46/0x5b ... And transition fails and data->currfid ends up with 0. Since the machine does not support 800Mhz value when the calculation is done ('find_khz_freq_from_fid(data->currfid);') it reports the new frequency as 800000 which is bogus. This patch fixes the issue during target setting. The patch however does not fix the issue in 'powernowk8_cpu_init' where the pol->cur can also be set with the 800000 value: pol->cur = find_khz_freq_from_fid(data->currfid); dprintk("policy current frequency %d kHz\n", pol->cur); /* min/max the cpu is capable of */ if (cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo(pol, data->powernow_table)) { The fix for that looks to update cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo to check pol->cur.... but that would cause an regression in how the acpi-cpufreq driver works (it sets cpu->cur after calling cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo). Instead the fix will be to let cpufreq gracefully handle bogus data (another patch).

If the driver submitted an non-existing pol>cur value (say it used the default initialized value of zero), when the cpufreq stats tries to setup its initial values it incorrectly sets stat->last_index to -1 (or 0xfffff...). And cpufreq_stats_update tries to update at that index location and fails. This can be caused by: stat->last_index = freq_table_get_index(stat, policy->cur); not finding the appropiate frequency in the table (b/c the policy->cur is wrong) and we end up crashing. The fix however is concentrated in the 'cpufreq_stats_update' as the last_index (and old_index) are updated there. Which means it can reset the last_index to -1 again and on the next iteration cause a crash. Without this patch, the following crash is observed: powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3700+ (1 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00) powernow-k8: fid 0x2 (1000 MHz), vid 0x12 powernow-k8: fid 0xa (1800 MHz), vid 0xa powernow-k8: fid 0xc (2000 MHz), vid 0x8 powernow-k8: fid 0xe (2200 MHz), vid 0x8 Marking TSC unstable due to cpufreq changes powernow-k8: fid trans failed, fid 0x2, curr 0x0 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff880807e07b78 IP: [<ffffffff81479163>] cpufreq_stats_update+0x46/0x5b .. snip..

In tomoyo_mount_acl() since 2.6.36, kern_path() was called without checking dev_name != NULL. As a result, an unprivileged user can trigger oops by issuing mount(NULL, "/", "ext3", 0, NULL) request.

Commit e9c7469b ("md: implment REQ_FLUSH/FUA support") introduced R5_WantFUA flag and set rw to WRITE_FUA in that case. However remaining code still checks whether rw is exactly same as WRITE or not, so FUAed-write ends up with being treated as READ. Fix it. This bug has been present since 2.6.37 and the fix is suitable for any -stable kernel since then. It is not clear why this has not caused more problems.

The @bio->bi_phys_segments consists of active stripes count in the lower 16 bits and processed stripes count in the upper 16 bits. So logical-OR operator should be bitwise one.

Older m68k-linux compilers will include pre-defined symbols that confuse what processor it is being targeted for. For example gcc-4.1.2 will pre-define __mc68020__ even if you specify the target processor as -m68000 on the gcc command line. Newer versions of gcc have this corrected. In a few places the m68k code uses defined(__mc68020__) for optimizations that include instructions that are specific to the CPU 68020 and above. When compiling with older compilers this will be true even when we have selected to compile for the older 68000 processors. Switch to using the kernel processor defines, CONFIG_M68020 and friends.

There are 3 families of CPU core types that we support in the m68knommu architecture branch. They are . traditional 68000 . CPU32 (a 68020 core derivative without MMU or bitfield instructions) . ColdFire It will be useful going forward to have a CONFIG_ option defined for each type. We already have one for ColdFire (CONFIG_COLDFIRE), so add for the other 2 families, CONFIG_M68000 and CONFIG_MCPU32. Signed-off-by: Greg Ungerer <gerg@uclinux.org>

Drivers using multiple framebuffers got broken by commit 41c2e75e which ignored the framebuffer (or register) map offset when looking for existing maps. The rationale was that the kernel-userspace ABI is fixed at a 32-bit offset, so the real offsets could not always be handed over for comparison. Instead of ignoring the offset we will compare the lower 32 bit. Drivers using multiple framebuffers should just make sure that the lower 32 bit are different. The existing drivers in question are practically limited to 32-bit systems so that should be fine for them. It is assumed that current drivers always specify a correct framebuffer map offset, even if this offset was ignored since above commit. So this patch should not change anything for drivers using only one framebuffer. Drivers needing multiple framebuffers with 64-bit map offsets will need to cook up something, for instance keeping an ID in the lower bit which is to be aligned away when it comes to using the offset. All of above applies to _DRM_REGISTERS as well. Signed-off-by: Tormod Volden <debian.tormod@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

Long ago (in commit 00e485b0), I added some code to handle share-level passwords in CIFSTCon. That code ignored the fact that it's legit to pass in a NULL tcon pointer when connecting to the IPC$ share on the server. This wasn't really a problem until recently as we only called CIFSTCon this way when the server returned -EREMOTE. With the introduction of commit c1508ca2 however, it gets called this way on every mount, causing an oops when share-level security is in effect. Fix this by simply treating a NULL tcon pointer as if user-level security were in effect. I'm not aware of any servers that protect the IPC$ share with a specific password anyway. Also, add a comment to the top of CIFSTCon to ensure that we don't make the same mistake again.

It's possible for the following set of events to happen: cifsd calls cifs_reconnect which reconnects the socket. A userspace process then calls cifs_negotiate_protocol to handle the NEGOTIATE and gets a reply. But, while processing the reply, cifsd calls cifs_reconnect again. Eventually the GlobalMid_Lock is dropped and the reply from the earlier NEGOTIATE completes and the tcpStatus is set to CifsGood. cifs_reconnect then goes through and closes the socket and sets the pointer to zero, but because the status is now CifsGood, the new socket is not created and cifs_reconnect exits with the socket pointer set to NULL. Fix this by only setting the tcpStatus to CifsGood if the tcpStatus is CifsNeedNegotiate, and by making sure that generic_ip_connect is always called at least once in cifs_reconnect. Note that this is not a perfect fix for this issue. It's still possible that the NEGOTIATE reply is handled after the socket has been closed and reconnected. In that case, the socket state will look correct but it no NEGOTIATE was performed on it be for the wrong socket. In that situation though the server should just shut down the socket on the next attempted send, rather than causing the oops that occurs today.
