59359ff David S. Miller 06 November 2006, 00:51:03 UTC [SPARC]: Fix robust futex syscalls and wire up migrate_pages. When I added the entries for the robust futex syscall entries, I forgot to bump NR_SYSCALLS. The current situation is error-prone because NR_SYSCALLS lives in entry.S where the system call limit checks are enforced. Move the definition to asm/unistd.h in order to make this mistake much more difficult to make. And wire up sys_migrate_pages since the powerpc folks implemented the compat wrapper for us.

I think the problem is in sock_alloc_send_pskb(), the gfp_mask includes __GFP_REPEAT but its never used/passed to the page allocator. Shouldnt the gfp_mask be passed to alloc_skb() ?

36da4d8 Michael Chan 03 November 2006, 09:01:03 UTC [TG3]: Fix 2nd ifup failure on 5752M. This fixes a bug reported in: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7438 tg3_close() turns off the PHY if WoL and ASF are both disabled. On the next tg3_open(), some devices such as the 5752M will not be brought up correctly without a PHY reset early in the reset sequence. The PHY clock is needed for some internal MAC blocks to function correctly. This problem is fixed by always resetting the PHY early in tg3_reset_hw() when it is called from tg3_open() or tg3_resume(). tg3_setup_phy() can then be called later in the sequence without the reset_phy parameter set to 1, since the PHY reset is already done.

The old variant mangled the packet; that got fixed, but calculation itself got buggered. Restored the correct logics, fixed a subtle breakage we used to have even back then: if the sum is 0 mod 0xffff, we want to return 0, not 0xffff.

10b1fbd Linus Torvalds 04 November 2006, 21:03:00 UTC Make sure "user->sigpending" count is in sync The previous commit (45c18b0bb579b5c1b89f8c99f1b6ffa4c586ba08, aka "Fix unlikely (but possible) race condition on task->user access") fixed a potential oops due to __sigqueue_alloc() getting its "user" pointer out of sync with switch_user(), and accessing a user pointer that had been de-allocated on another CPU. It still left another (much less serious) problem, where a concurrent __sigqueue_alloc and swich_user could cause sigqueue_alloc to do signal pending reference counting for a _different_ user than the one it then actually ended up using. No oops, but we'd end up with the wrong signal accounting. Another case of Oleg's eagle-eyes picking up the problem. This is trivially fixed by just making sure we load whichever "user" structure we decide to use (it doesn't matter _which_ one we pick, we just need to pick one) just once.

45c18b0 Linus Torvalds 04 November 2006, 18:06:02 UTC Fix unlikely (but possible) race condition on task->user access There's a possible race condition when doing a "switch_uid()" from one user to another, which could race with another thread doing a signal allocation and looking at the old thread ->user pointer as it is freed. This explains an oops reported by Lukasz Trabinski: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/462241 We fix this by delaying the (reference-counted) freeing of the user structure until the thread signal handler lock has been released, so that we know that the signal allocation has either seen the new value or has properly incremented the reference count of the old one.

80491eb Linus Torvalds 04 November 2006, 17:55:00 UTC Revert unintentional "volatile" changes in ipc/msg.c Commit 5a06a363ef48444186f18095ae1b932dddbbfa89 ("[PATCH] ipc/msg.c: clean up coding style") breaks fakeroot on Alpha (variously hangs or oopses), according to a report by Falk Hueffner. The fact that the code seems to rely on compiler access ordering through the use of "volatile" is a pretty certain sign that the code has locking problems, and we should fix those properly and then remove the whole "volatile" entirely. But in the meantime, the movement of "volatile" was unintentional, and should be reverted.

Sticky directories further restrict write access to the owner and privileged users. (See the attr(5) man page for an explanation.) The original check in ext2/ext3 when user.* xattrs were merged was more restrictive than intended, and when the xattr permission checks were moved into the VFS, read access to user.* attributes on sticky directores ended up being denied in addition.

8ce0846 Stephen Rothwell 03 November 2006, 06:07:28 UTC [PATCH] Fix sys_move_pages when a NULL node list is passed sys_move_pages() uses vmalloc() to allocate an array of structures that is fills with information passed from user mode and then passes to do_stat_pages() (in the case the node list is NULL). do_stat_pages() depends on a marker in the node field of the structure to decide how large the array is and this marker is correctly inserted into the last element of the array. However, vmalloc() doesn't zero the memory it allocates and if the user passes NULL for the node list, then the node fields are not filled in (except for the end marker). If the memory the vmalloc() returned happend to have a word with the marker value in it in just the right place, do_pages_stat will fail to fill the status field of part of the array and we will return (random) kernel data to user mode.

1f6f616 Jeff Dike 03 November 2006, 06:07:23 UTC [PATCH] uml: include tidying In order to get the __NR_* constants, we need sys/syscall.h. linux/unistd.h works as well since it includes syscall.h, however syscall.h is more parsimonious. We were inconsistent in this, and this patch adds syscall.h includes where necessary and removes linux/unistd.h includes where they are not needed. asm/unistd.h also includes the __NR_* constants, but these are not the glibc-sanctioned ones, so this also removes one such inclusion.

53b1733 Jeff Dike 03 November 2006, 06:07:22 UTC [PATCH] uml: fix I/O hang Fix a UML hang in which everything would just stop until some I/O happened - a ping, someone whacking the keyboard - at which point everything would start up again as though nothing had happened. The cause was gcc reordering some code which absolutely needed to be executed in the order in the source. When unblock_signals switches signals from off to on, it needs to see if any interrupts had happened in the critical section. The interrupt handlers check signals_enabled - if it is zero, then the handler adds a bit to the "pending" bitmask and returns. unblock_signals checks this mask to see if any signals need to be delivered. The crucial part is this: signals_enabled = 1; save_pending = pending; if(save_pending == 0) return; pending = 0; In order to avoid an interrupt arriving between reading pending and setting it to zero, in which case, the record of the interrupt would be erased, signals are enabled. What happened was that gcc reordered this so that 'save_pending = pending' came before 'signals_enabled = 1', creating a one-instruction window within which an interrupt could arrive, set its bit in pending, and have it be immediately erased. When the I/O workload is purely disk-based, the loss of a block device interrupt stops the entire I/O system because the next block request will wait for the current one to finish. Thus the system hangs until something else causes some I/O to arrive, such as a network packet or console input. The fix to this particular problem is a memory barrier between enabling signals and reading the pending signal mask. An xchg would also probably work. Looking over this code for similar problems led me to do a few more things: - make signals_enabled and pending volatile so that they don't get cached in registers - add an mb() to the return paths of block_signals and unblock_signals so that the modification of signals_enabled doesn't get shuffled into the caller in the event that these are inlined in the future.

When removing old entries in grow_ary() ipc_rcu_putref() may be called on entries set to &ids->nullentry earlier in ipc_init_ids(). This is almost impossible without namespaces, but with them this situation becomes possible. Found during OpenVZ testing after obvious leaks in beancounters.

I ran into this too because of an old source tree, but my fix would look quite a bit different to Andi's fix. The reason is that the compat function IMHO should behave the very same as the non-compat function if possible. Since sys_pselect7 does not return -EFAULT in this specific case, change the compat code so it behaves like sys_pselect7.

18ee91f David Brownell 02 November 2006, 20:29:12 UTC USB: use MII hooks only if CONFIG_MII is enabled Fix mcs7830 patch The recent mcs7830 update to make the MII support sharable goofed various pre-existing configurations in two ways: - it made the usbnet infrastructure reference MII symbols even when they're not needed in the kernel being built - it didn't enable MII along with the mcs7830 minidriver This patch fixes these two problems. However, there does seem to be a Kconfig reverse dependency bug in that MII gets wrongly enabled in some cases (like USBNET=y and USBNET_MII=n); I think I've noticed that same problem in other situations too. So the result can mean kernels being bloated by stuff that's needlessly enabled ... better than wrongly being disabled, but contributing to bloat.

3ccfc65 Paul Mackerras 01 November 2006, 22:44:37 UTC [PATCH] powerpc: Eliminate "exceeds stub group size" linker warning It turns out that the linker warnings on 64-bit powerpc about "section blah exceeds stub group size" were being triggered by conditional branches in head_64.S branching to global symbols, whether in head_64.S or in other files. This eliminates the warnings by making some global symbols in head_64.S no longer global, and by rearranging some branches. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> [ Yee-haa.

f9dadfa Linus Torvalds 01 November 2006, 18:05:35 UTC i386: write IO APIC irq routing entries in correct order Since the "mask" bit is in the low word, when we write a new entry, we need to write the high word first, before we potentially unmask it. The exception is when we actually want to mask the interrupt, in which case we want to write the low word first to make sure that the high word doesn't change while the interrupt routing is still active.
