03449cd David Howells 27 April 2010, 20:13:08 UTC keys: the request_key() syscall should link an existing key to the dest keyring The request_key() system call and request_key_and_link() should make a link from an existing key to the destination keyring (if supplied), not just from a new key to the destination keyring. This can be tested by: ring=`keyctl newring fred @s` keyctl request2 user debug:a a keyctl request user debug:a $ring keyctl list $ring If it says: keyring is empty then it didn't work. If it shows something like: 1 key in keyring: 1070462727: --alswrv 0 0 user: debug:a then it did. request_key() system call is meant to recursively search all your keyrings for the key you desire, and, optionally, if it doesn't exist, call out to userspace to create one for you. If request_key() finds or creates a key, it should, optionally, create a link to that key from the destination keyring specified. Therefore, if, after a successful call to request_key() with a desination keyring specified, you see the destination keyring empty, the code didn't work correctly. If you see the found key in the keyring, then it did - which is what the patch is required for.

a2cb9ae Marc Zyngier 27 April 2010, 20:13:07 UTC gpio: fix pca953x set_type 'scheduling while atomic' bug Bill Gatliff reported the following bug when using the irq_chip facility of the pca953x driver on a PPC platform: BUG: scheduling while atomic: insmod/1530/0x00000002 He traced it back to an i2c transaction in pca953x_irq_set_type(), which can be called with interrupt disabled (from __setup_irq()). As the i2c controller can sleep while sending a message, this qualifies as a bad idea. This patch moves the i2c transaction to pca953x_irq_bus_sync_unlock(), where it is actually safe to send an i2c message.

2bc3c11 Neil Brown 20 April 2010, 02:16:52 UTC nfsd4: bug in read_buf When read_buf is called to move over to the next page in the pagelist of an NFSv4 request, it sets argp->end to essentially a random number, certainly not an address within the page which argp->p now points to. So subsequent calls to READ_BUF will think there is much more than a page of spare space (the cast to u32 ensures an unsigned comparison) so we can expect to fall off the end of the second page. We never encountered thsi in testing because typically the only operations which use more than two pages are write-like operations, which have their own decoding logic. Something like a getattr after a write may cross a page boundary, but it would be very unusual for it to cross another boundary after that. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: J.

dd77ef9 Dave Chinner 20 April 2010, 07:00:37 UTC xfs: more swap extent fixes for dynamic fork offsets A new xfsqa test (226) with a prototype xfs_fsr change to try to handle dynamic fork offsets better triggers an assertion failure where the inode data fork is in btree format, yet there is room in the inode for it to be in extent format. The two inodes look like: before: ino 0x101 (target), num_extents 11, Max in-fork extents 6, broot size 40, fork offset 96 before: ino 0x115 (temp), num_extents 5, Max in-fork extents 3, broot size 40, fork offset 56 after: ino 0x101 (target), num_extents 5, Max in-fork extents 6, broot size 40, fork offset 96 after: ino 0x115 (temp), num_extents 11, Max in-fork extents 3, broot size 40, fork offset 56 Basically the target inode ends up with 5 extents in btree format, but it had space for 6 extents in extent format, so ends up incorrect. Notably here the broot size is the same, and that is where the kernel code is going wrong - the btree root will fit, so it lets the swap go ahead. The check should not allow the swap to take place if the number of extents while in btree format is less than the number of extents that can fit in the inode in extent format. Adding that check will prevent this swap and corruption from occurring. Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> 26 April 2010, 17:38:51 UTC

df37bd1 Phillip Lougher 23 April 2010, 17:18:11 UTC initramfs: handle unrecognised decompressor when unpacking The unpack routine fails to handle the decompress_method() returning unrecognised decompressor (compress_name == NULL). This results in the routine looping eventually oopsing on an out of bounds memory access. Note this bug is usually hidden, only triggering on trailing junk after one or more correct compressed blocks. The case of the compressed archive being complete junk is (by accident?) caught by the if (state != Reset) check because state is initialised to Start, but not updated due to the decompressor not having been called. Obviously if the junk is trailing a correctly decompressed buffer, state == Reset from the previous call to the decompressor.

453dc65 Dmitry Torokhov 23 April 2010, 17:18:08 UTC VMware Balloon driver This is a standalone version of VMware Balloon driver. Ballooning is a technique that allows hypervisor dynamically limit the amount of memory available to the guest (with guest cooperation). In the overcommit scenario, when hypervisor set detects that it needs to shuffle some memory, it instructs the driver to allocate certain number of pages, and the underlying memory gets returned to the hypervisor. Later hypervisor may return memory to the guest by reattaching memory to the pageframes and instructing the driver to "deflate" balloon. We are submitting a standalone driver because KVM maintainer (Avi Kivity) expressed opinion (rightly) that our transport does not fit well into virtqueue paradigm and thus it does not make much sense to integrate with virtio. There were also some concerns whether current ballooning technique is the right thing. If there appears a better framework to achieve this we are prepared to evaluate and switch to using it, but in the meantime we'd like to get this driver upstream. We want to get the driver accepted in distributions so that users do not have to deal with an out-of-tree module and many distributions have "upstream first" requirement. The driver has been shipping for a number of years and users running on VMware platform will have it installed as part of VMware Tools even if it will not come from a distribution, thus there should not be additional risk in pulling the driver into mainline. The driver will only activate if host is VMware so everyone else should not be affected at all.

b8af67e Anton Blanchard 23 April 2010, 17:18:06 UTC fs/block_dev.c: fix performance regression in O_DIRECT|O_SYNC writes to block devices We are seeing a large regression in database performance on recent kernels. The database opens a block device with O_DIRECT|O_SYNC and a number of threads write to different regions of the file at the same time. A simple test case is below. I haven't defined DEVICE since getting it wrong will destroy your data :) On an 3 disk LVM with a 64k chunk size we see about 17MB/sec and only a few threads in IO wait: procs -----io---- -system-- -----cpu------ r b bi bo in cs us sy id wa st 0 3 0 16170 656 2259 0 0 86 14 0 0 2 0 16704 695 2408 0 0 92 8 0 0 2 0 17308 744 2653 0 0 86 14 0 0 2 0 17933 759 2777 0 0 89 10 0 Most threads are blocking in vfs_fsync_range, which has: mutex_lock(&mapping->host->i_mutex); err = fop->fsync(file, dentry, datasync); if (!ret) ret = err; mutex_unlock(&mapping->host->i_mutex); commit 148f948ba877f4d3cdef036b1ff6d9f68986706a (vfs: Introduce new helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode) offers some explanation of what is going on: Use these new helpers for syncing from generic VFS functions. This makes O_SYNC writes to block devices acquire i_mutex for syncing. If we really care about this, we can make block_fsync() drop the i_mutex and reacquire it before it returns. Thanks Jan for such a good commit message! As well as dropping i_mutex, Christoph suggests we should remove the call to sync_blockdev(): > sync_blockdev is an overcomplicated alias for filemap_write_and_wait on > the block device inode, which is exactly what we did just before calling > into ->fsync The patch below incorporates both suggestions.

23be746 Mel Gorman 23 April 2010, 17:17:56 UTC hugetlb: fix infinite loop in get_futex_key() when backed by huge pages If a futex key happens to be located within a huge page mapped MAP_PRIVATE, get_futex_key() can go into an infinite loop waiting for a page->mapping that will never exist. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=552257 for more details about the problem. This patch makes page->mapping a poisoned value that includes PAGE_MAPPING_ANON mapped MAP_PRIVATE. This is enough for futex to continue but because of PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, the poisoned value is not dereferenced or used by futex. No other part of the VM should be dereferencing the page->mapping of a hugetlbfs page as its page cache is not on the LRU. This patch fixes the problem with the test case described in the bugzilla.

8a3bdfe Thomas Gerlach 23 April 2010, 17:17:50 UTC drivers/video/efifb.c: support framebuffer for NVIDIA 9400M in MacBook Pro 5,1 Description of patch: --------------------- This is a patch for the EFI framebuffer driver to enable the framebuffer of the NVIDIA 9400M as found in MacBook Pro (MBP) 5,1 and up. The framebuffer of the NVIDIA graphic cards are located at the following addresses in memory: 9400M: 0xC0010000 9600M GT: 0xB0030000 The patch delivered right here only provides the memory location of the framebuffer of the 9400M device. The 9600M GT is not covered. It is assumed that the 9400M is used when powered up the MBP. The information which device is currently powered and in use is stored in the 64 bytes large EFI variable "gpu-power-prefs". More specifically, byte 0x3B indicates whether 9600M GT (0x00) or 9400M (0x01) is online. The PCI bus IDs are the following: 9400M: PCI 03:00:00 9600M GT: PCI 02:00:00 The EFI variables can be easily read-out and manipulated with "rEFIt", an MBP specific bootloader tool. For more information on how handle rEFIt and EFI variables please consult "http://refit.sourceforge.net" and "http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1076879.html". IMPORTANT NOTE: The information on how to activate the 9400M device given at "ubuntuforums.org" is not correct, since it states gpu-power-prefs[0x3B] = 0x00 -> 9400M (PCI 02:00:00) gpu-power-prefs[0x3B] = 0x01 -> 9600M GT (PCI 03:00:00) Actually, the assignment of the values and the PCI bus IDs are swapped. Suggestions: ------------ To cover framebuffers of both 9400M and 9600M GT, I would suggest to implement a conditional on "gpu-power-prefs". Depending on the value of byte 0x3B, the according framebuffer is selected. However, this requires kernel access to the EFI variables.

The issue is that the reiserfs_setattr to shrink the xattr file was moved from before the write to after the write. The root issue has always been in the reiserfs xattr code, but was papered over by the fact that in the shrink case, the file would just be expanded again while the xattr was written. The end result is that the last 8 bytes of xattr data are lost. This patch fixes it to use new_size.

cac36f7 Jeff Mahoney 23 April 2010, 17:17:37 UTC reiserfs: fix permissions on .reiserfs_priv Commit 677c9b2e393a0cd203bd54e9c18b012b2c73305a ("reiserfs: remove privroot hiding in lookup") removed the magic from the lookup code to hide the .reiserfs_priv directory since it was getting loaded at mount-time instead. The intent was that the entry would be hidden from the user via a poisoned d_compare, but this was faulty. This introduced a security issue where unprivileged users could access and modify extended attributes or ACLs belonging to other users, including root. This patch resolves the issue by properly hiding .reiserfs_priv. This was the intent of the xattr poisoning code, but it appears to have never worked as expected. This is fixed by using d_revalidate instead of d_compare. This patch makes -oexpose_privroot a no-op. I'm fine leaving it this way. The effort involved in working out the corner cases wrt permissions and caching outweigh the benefit of the feature.

Fortunately, the fix is trivial and has been tested. Be sure to use the HAS_PIPE_CONTROL macro in i915_get_gem_seqno, or we'll end up reading the wrong graphics memory, likely causing hangs, crashes, or worse.
