2011-08-11ext4: Properly count journal credits for long symlinksEric Sandeen
Commit df5e6223407e ("ext4: fix deadlock in ext4_symlink() in ENOSPC conditions") recalculated the number of credits needed for a long symlink, in the process of splitting it into two transactions. However, the first credit calculation under-counted because if selinux is enabled, credits are needed to create the selinux xattr as well. Overrunning the reservation will result in an OOPS in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() due to this assert: J_ASSERT_JH(jh, handle->h_buffer_credits > 0); Fix this by increasing the reservation size.

2011-08-11move RLIMIT_NPROC check from set_user() to do_execve_common()Vasiliy Kulikov
The patch http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/13/226 introduced an RLIMIT_NPROC check in set_user() to check for NPROC exceeding via setuid() and similar functions. Before the check there was a possibility to greatly exceed the allowed number of processes by an unprivileged user if the program relied on rlimit only. But the check created new security threat: many poorly written programs simply don't check setuid() return code and believe it cannot fail if executed with root privileges. So, the check is removed in this patch because of too often privilege escalations related to buggy programs. The NPROC can still be enforced in the common code flow of daemons spawning user processes. Most of daemons do fork()+setuid()+execve(). The check introduced in execve() (1) enforces the same limit as in setuid() and (2) doesn't create similar security issues. Neil Brown suggested to track what specific process has exceeded the limit by setting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED process flag. With the change only this process would fail on execve(), and other processes' execve() behaviour is not changed. Solar Designer suggested to re-check whether NPROC limit is still exceeded at the moment of execve(). If the process was sleeping for days between set*uid() and execve(), and the NPROC counter step down under the limit, the defered execve() failure because NPROC limit was exceeded days ago would be unexpected. If the limit is not exceeded anymore, we clear the flag on successful calls to execve() and fork(). The flag is also cleared on successful calls to set_user() as the limit was exceeded for the previous user, not the current one. Similar check was introduced in -ow patches (without the process flag). v3 - clear PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED on successful calls to set_user().

pmbus_clear_faults() attempts to clear faults on non-existing real pages. As a result, the command error bit in the status register is set, and faults are not really cleared. All byte writes to non-zero pages are requests to clear the status register on that page. Since non-zero pages are virtual and do not exist on the chip, there is nothing to do, and such requests have to be ignored. This fixes above problem.

2011-08-11ipv4: some rt_iif -> rt_route_iif conversionsJulian Anastasov
As rt_iif represents input device even for packets coming from loopback with output route, it is not an unique key specific to input routes. Now rt_route_iif has such role, it was fl.iif in 2.6.38, so better to change the checks at some places to save CPU cycles and to restore 2.6.38 semantics. compare_keys: - input routes: only rt_route_iif matters, rt_iif is same - output routes: only rt_oif matters, rt_iif is not used for matching in __ip_route_output_key - now we are back to 2.6.38 state ip_route_input_common: - matching rt_route_iif implies input route - compared to 2.6.38 we eliminated one rth->fl.oif check because it was not needed even for 2.6.38 compare_hash_inputs: Only the change here is not an optimization, it has effect only for output routes. I assume I'm restoring the original intention to ignore oif, it was using fl.iif - now we are back to 2.6.38 state Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-08-11ARM: mmp: Also start timer 1 on boot.Lennert Buytenhek
Currently, arch-mmp/time.c uses timer 0 both as a clocksource timer and as a clockevent timer, the latter by setting up a comparator interrupt to match on 'current_time + delta'. This is problematic if delta is small enough, as that can lead to 'current_time + delta' already being in the past when comparator setup has finished, leading to the requested event not triggering. As there is also a silicon issue that requires stopping a timer's counter while writing to one of its match registers, we'll switch to using two separate timers -- timer 0 as clockevent timer, which we'll start and stop on every invocation of ->set_next_event(), and timer 1 as clocksource timer, which will be free-running. This first patch enables timer 1 on boot, so that we can use it as clocksource timer.

2011-08-10x86-64: Rework vsyscall emulation and add vsyscall= parameterAndy Lutomirski
There are three choices: vsyscall=native: Vsyscalls are native code that issues the corresponding syscalls. vsyscall=emulate (default): Vsyscalls are emulated by instruction fault traps, tested in the bad_area path. The actual contents of the vsyscall page is the same as the vsyscall=native case except that it's marked NX. This way programs that make assumptions about what the code in the page does will not be confused when they read that code. vsyscall=none: Trying to execute a vsyscall will segfault.

2011-08-10"xfs: fix error handling for synchronous writes" revisitedAjeet Yadav
xfs: fix for hang during synchronous buffer write error If removed storage while synchronous buffer write underway, "xfslogd" hangs. Detailed log http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2011-07/msg00740.html Related work bfc60177f8ab509bc225becbb58f7e53a0e33e81 "xfs: fix error handling for synchronous writes" Given that xfs_bwrite actually does the shutdown already after waiting for the b_iodone completion and given that we actually found that calling xfs_force_shutdown from inside xfs_buf_iodone_callbacks was a major contributor the problem it better to drop this call.

In each case, the kfree already at the end of the function is also needed in the error case. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @exists@ local idexpression x; statement S,S1; expression E; identifier fl; expression *ptr != NULL; @@ x = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...); ... if (x == NULL) S <... when != x when != if (...) { <+...kfree(x)...+> } when any when != true x == NULL x->fl ...> ( if (x == NULL) S1 | if (...) { ... when != x when forall ( return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\); | * return ...; ) } ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: John W.

2011-08-10ALSA: snd-usb-caiaq: Correct offset fields of outbound iso_frame_descDaniel Mack
This fixes faulty outbount packets in case the inbound packets received from the hardware are fragmented and contain bogus input iso frames. The bug has been there for ages, but for some strange reasons, it was only triggered by newer machines in 64bit mode.

2011-08-10EDAC: Correct Kconfig dependenciesBorislav Petkov
Both AMD and Intel i7 EDAC drivers use MCE features and are thus dependent of this functionality present in the kernel. Express this in Kconfig so that randconfig builds don't break.
