731572d Alan Cox 29 October 2008, 21:01:20 UTC nfsd: fix vm overcommit crash Junjiro R. Okajima reported a problem where knfsd crashes if you are using it to export shmemfs objects and run strict overcommit. In this situation the current->mm based modifier to the overcommit goes through a NULL pointer. We could simply check for NULL and skip the modifier but we've caught other real bugs in the past from mm being NULL here - cases where we did need a valid mm set up (eg the exec bug about a year ago). To preserve the checks and get the logic we want shuffle the checking around and add a new helper to the vm_ security wrappers Also fix a current->mm reference in nommu that should use the passed mm [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix build] Reported-by: Junjiro R.

87b811c Eric Sandeen 29 October 2008, 21:01:08 UTC ecryptfs: fix memory corruption when storing crypto info in xattrs When ecryptfs allocates space to write crypto headers into, before copying it out to file headers or to xattrs, it looks at the value of crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front to determine how much space it needs. This is also used as the file offset to the actual encrypted data, so for xattr-stored crypto info, the value was zero. So, we kzalloc'd 0 bytes, and then ran off to write to that memory. (Which returned as ZERO_SIZE_PTR, so we explode quickly). The right answer is to always allocate a page to write into; the current code won't ever write more than that (this is enforced by the (PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - offset) length in the call to ecryptfs_generate_key_packet_set). To be explicit about this, we now send in a "max" parameter, rather than magically using PAGE_CACHE_SIZE there. Also, since the pointer we pass down the callchain eventually gets the virt_to_page() treatment, we should be using a alloc_page variant, not kzalloc (see also 7fcba054373d5dfc43d26e243a5c9b92069972ee) Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael Halcrow <mhalcrow@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 30 October 2008, 18:38:46 UTC

879129d Mikulas Patocka 30 October 2008, 13:33:16 UTC dm snapshot: wait for chunks in destructor If there are several snapshots sharing an origin and one is removed while the origin is being written to, the snapshot's mempool may get deleted while elements are still referenced. Prior to dm-snapshot-use-per-device-mempools.patch the pending exceptions may still have been referenced after the snapshot was destroyed, but this was not a problem because the shared mempool was still there. This patch fixes the problem by tracking the number of mempool elements in use. The scenario: - You have an origin and two snapshots 1 and 2. - Someone writes to the origin. - It creates two exceptions in the snapshots, snapshot 1 will be primary exception, snapshot 2's pending_exception->primary_pe will point to the exception in snapshot 1. - The exceptions are being relocated, relocation of exception 1 finishes (but it's pending_exception is still allocated, because it is referenced by an exception from snapshot 2) - The user lvremoves snapshot 1 --- it calls just suspend (does nothing) and destructor. md->pending is zero (there is no I/O submitted to the snapshot by md layer), so it won't help us. - The destructor waits for kcopyd jobs to finish on snapshot 1 --- but there are none. - The destructor on snapshot 1 cleans up everything. - The relocation of exception on snapshot 2 finishes, it drops reference on primary_pe. This frees its primary_pe pointer. Primary_pe points to pending exception created for snapshot 1. So it frees memory into non-existing mempool.

fa157bd Alan Stern 30 October 2008, 00:06:13 UTC HID: add quirk entry for no-name keyboard (0x13ba/0x0017) This patch (as1157) adds a no-name PS/2-to-USB keyboard+mouse adapter to the hid-dell driver. (The device shows up with a Product string saying "Generic USB K/B", nothing more.) This will force an initial "Set-LEDs" report to be sent to the device, without which it won't send any keystroke information. Several bug reports mentioning this device have been filed in various forums; the patch should resolve them. This is just a temporary stop-gap for 2.6.28. A later patch for 2.6.29 will introduce a more generic mechanism for "Set-LEDs", making this change (and the entire hid-dell driver) unnecessary.

1133283 Jason Baron 27 October 2008, 16:05:14 UTC Driver core: fix 'dynamic_debug' cmd line parameter In testing 2.6.28-rc1, I found that passing 'dynamic_printk' on the command line didn't activate the debug code. The problem is that dynamic_printk_setup() (which activates the debugging) is being called before dynamic_printk_init() is called (which initializes infrastructure). Fix this by setting setting the state to 'DYNAMIC_ENABLED_ALL' in dynamic_printk_setup(), which will also cause all subsequent modules to have debugging automatically started, which is probably the behavior we want.

61fbeba Alan Stern 27 October 2008, 16:07:44 UTC USB: prevent autosuspend during hub initialization This patch (as1153) fixes a potential problem in hub initialization. Starting in 2.6.28, initialization was split into several tasks to help speed up booting. This opens the possibility that the hub may be autosuspended before all the initialization tasks can complete. Normally that wouldn't matter, but with incomplete initialization there is a risk that the hub would never autoresume -- especially if devices were plugged into the hub beforehand. The solution is a simple one-line change to suppress autosuspend until the initialization is finished.

cde217a Alan Stern 21 October 2008, 19:28:46 UTC USB: fix crash when URBs are unlinked after the device is gone This patch (as1151) protects usbcore against drivers that try to unlink an URB after the URB's device or bus have been removed. The core does not currently check for this, and certain drivers can cause a crash if they are running while an HCD is unloaded. Certainly it would be best to fix the guilty drivers. But a little defensive programming doesn't hurt, especially since it appears that quite a few drivers need to be fixed. The patch prevents the problem by grabbing a reference to the device while an unlink is in progress and using a new spinlock to synchronize unlinks with device removal. (There's no need to acquire a reference to the bus as well, since the device structure itself keeps a reference to the bus.) In addition, the kerneldoc is updated to indicate that URBs should not be unlinked after the disconnect method returns.

15a2ee7 Jeremy Huntwork 29 October 2008, 21:20:13 UTC Fix incompatibility with versions of Perl less than 5.6.0 Fix headers_install.pl and headers_check.pl to be compatible with versions of Perl less than 5.6.0. It has been tested with Perl 5.005_03 and 5.8.8. I realize this may not be an issue for most people, but there will still be some that hit it, I imagine. There are three basic issues: 1. Prior to 5.6.0 open() only used 2 arguments, and the versions of the scripts in 2.6.27.1 use 3. 2. 5.6.0 also introduced the ability to use uninitialized scalar variables as file handles, which the current scripts make use of. 3. Lastly, 5.6.0 also introduced the pragma 'use warnings'. We can use the -w switch and be backwards compatible.

f03b283 Trent Piepho 12 September 2008, 19:26:24 UTC kbuild: tag with git revision when git describe is missing setlocalversion used to use an abbreviated git commit sha1 to generate the tag. This was changed in commit d882421f4e08ddf0a94245cdbe516db260aa6f41 "kbuild: change CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO to use a git-describe-ish format" to use git describe to come up with a tag. Which is nice, but git describe sometimes can't describe the revision. Commit 56b2f0706d82535fd8d85503f2dcc0be40c8e55d ("setlocalversion: do not describe if there is nothing to describe") addressed this, but there is still no tag generated. So, generate a plain abbreviated sha1 tag like setlocalversion used to when git describe comes up short.
