The two DACs for the front output and the surround/center/LFE/back
outputs are wired up out of phase, so when channels are duplicated,
their sound can cancel out each other and result in a weaker bass
response. To fix this, reverse the polarity of the neutron flow to
the front output.

Several users have reported "choppy" audio under the 3.2 kernel,
and that changing position_fix to 1 has resolved their problem.
The chip is an nVidia Corporation MCP89 High Definition Audio,

Jüri Aedla reported that the /proc/<pid>/mem handling really isn't very
robust, and it also doesn't match the permission checking of any of the
other related files.
This changes it to do the permission checks at open time, and instead of
tracking the process, it tracks the VM at the time of the open. That
simplifies the code a lot, but does mean that if you hold the file
descriptor open over an execve(), you'll continue to read from the _old_
VM.
That is different from our previous behavior, but much simpler. If
somebody actually finds a load where this matters, we'll need to revert
this commit.
I suspect that nobody will ever notice - because the process mapping
addresses will also have changed as part of the execve. So you cannot
actually usefully access the fd across a VM change simply because all
the offsets for IO would have changed too.

[ Changes with respect to 3.3: return -ENOTTY from scsi_verify_blk_ioctl
and -ENOIOCTLCMD from sd_compat_ioctl. ]
Linux allows executing the SG_IO ioctl on a partition or LVM volume, and
will pass the command to the underlying block device. This is
well-known, but it is also a large security problem when (via Unix
permissions, ACLs, SELinux or a combination thereof) a program or user
needs to be granted access only to part of the disk.
This patch lets partitions forward a small set of harmless ioctls;
others are logged with printk so that we can see which ioctls are
actually sent. In my tests only CDROM_GET_CAPABILITY actually occurred.
Of course it was being sent to a (partition on a) hard disk, so it would
have failed with ENOTTY and the patch isn't changing anything in
practice. Still, I'm treating it specially to avoid spamming the logs.
In principle, this restriction should include programs running with
CAP_SYS_RAWIO. If for example I let a program access /dev/sda2 and
/dev/sdb, it still should not be able to read/write outside the
boundaries of /dev/sda2 independent of the capabilities. However, for
now programs with CAP_SYS_RAWIO will still be allowed to send the
ioctls. Their actions will still be logged.
This patch does not affect the non-libata IDE driver. That driver
however already tests for bd != bd->bd_contains before issuing some
ioctl; it could be restricted further to forbid these ioctls even for
programs running with CAP_SYS_ADMIN/CAP_SYS_RAWIO.

Backport note:
This patch it's a full revert of commit b23b025f "mac80211: Optimize
scans on current operating channel.". On upstrem revert e76aadc5 we
keep some bits from that commit, which are needed for upstream version

The on-channel work optimisations have caused a

very complex and almost impossible to follow.
Instead of attempting to put in more workarounds
let's just remove those optimisations, we can
work on them again later, after we change the

One bio can have at most BIO_MAX_PAGES pages. We should limit it bec otherwise
bio_alloc will fail when there are many pages in one read/write_pagelist.
bl_free_block_dev() may sleep. We can not call it with spinlock held.
Besides, there is no need to take bm_lock as we are last user freeing bm_devlist.
Two (or more) concurrent calls of shrink_dcache_parent() on the same dentry may
cause shrink_dcache_parent() to loop forever.
Here's what appears to happen:
1 - CPU0: select_parent(P) finds C and puts it on dispose list, returns 1
2 - CPU1: select_parent(P) locks P->d_lock
3 - CPU0: shrink_dentry_list() locks C->d_lock
dentry_kill(C) tries to lock P->d_lock but fails, unlocks C->d_lock
4 - CPU1: select_parent(P) locks C->d_lock,
moves C from dispose list being processed on CPU0 to the new
dispose list, returns 1
5 - CPU0: shrink_dentry_list() finds dispose list empty, returns
6 - Goto 2 with CPU0 and CPU1 switched
Basically select_parent() steals the dentry from shrink_dentry_list() and thinks
it found a new one, causing shrink_dentry_list() to think it's making progress
and loop over and over.
One way to trigger this is to make udev calls stat() on the sysfs file while it
is going away.
Having a file in /lib/udev/rules.d/ with only this one rule seems to the trick:
while true; do
echo -bond0 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters
echo +bond0 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters
echo -bond1 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters
echo +bond1 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters
done
One fix would be to check all callers and prevent concurrent calls to
shrink_dcache_parent(). But I think a better solution is to stop the
stealing behavior.
This patch adds a new dentry flag that is set when the dentry is added to the
dispose list. The flag is cleared in dentry_lru_del() in case the dentry gets a
new reference just before being pruned.
If the dentry has this flag, select_parent() will skip it and let
shrink_dentry_list() retry pruning it. With select_parent() skipping those
dentries there will not be the appearance of progress (new dentries found) when
there is none, hence shrink_dcache_parent() will not loop forever.
Set the flag is also set in prune_dcache_sb() for consistency as suggested by
Linus.
select_parent currently abuses the dentry cache LRU to provide
cleanup features for child dentries that need to be freed. It moves
them to the tail of the LRU, then tells shrink_dcache_parent() to
calls __shrink_dcache_sb to unconditionally move them to a dispose
list (as DCACHE_REFERENCED is ignored). __shrink_dcache_sb() has to
relock the dentries to move them off the LRU onto the dispose list,
but otherwise does not touch the dentries that select_parent() moved
to the tail of the LRU. It then passses the dispose list to
shrink_dentry_list() which tries to free the dentries.
IOWs, the use of __shrink_dcache_sb() is superfluous - we can build
exactly the same list of dentries for disposal directly in
select_parent() and call shrink_dentry_list() instead of calling
__shrink_dcache_sb() to do that. This means that we avoid long holds
on the lru lock walking the LRU moving dentries to the dispose list
We also avoid the need to relock each dentry just to move it off the
LRU, reducing the numebr of times we lock each dentry to dispose of
them in shrink_dcache_parent() from 3 to 2 times.
Further, we remove one of the two callers of __shrink_dcache_sb().
This also means that __shrink_dcache_sb can be moved into back into
prune_dcache_sb() and we no longer have to handle referenced
dentries conditionally, simplifying the code.

There is a potential integer overflow in uvc_ioctl_ctrl_map(). When a
large xmap->menu_count is passed from the userspace, the subsequent call
to kmalloc() will allocate a buffer smaller than expected.
map->menu_count and map->menu_info would later be used in a loop (e.g.
in uvc_query_v4l2_ctrl), which leads to out-of-bound access.
The patch checks the ioctl argument and returns -EINVAL for zero or too
large values in xmap->menu_count.
In ELF64, the sh_flags field is 64-bits wide. recordmcount was
erroneously treating it as a 32-bit wide field. For little endian
objects this works because the flags of interest (SHF_EXECINSTR)
reside in the lower 32 bits of the word, and you get the same result
with either a 32-bit or 64-bit read. Big endian objects on the
other hand do not work at all with this error.
The fix: Correctly treat sh_flags as 64-bits wide in elf64 objects.
The symptom I observed was that my
__start_mcount_loc..__stop_mcount_loc was empty even though ftrace
function tracing was enabled.

Socket callbacks use svc_xprt_enqueue() to add an xprt to a
pool->sp_sockets list. In normal operation a server thread will later
come along and take the xprt off that list. On shutdown, after all the
threads have exited, we instead manually walk the sv_tempsocks and
sv_permsocks lists to find all the xprt's and delete them.
So the sp_sockets lists don't really matter any more. As a result,
we've mostly just ignored them and hoped they would go away.
Which has gotten us into trouble; witness for example ebc63e531cc6
"svcrpc: fix list-corrupting race on nfsd shutdown", the result of Ben
Greear noticing that a still-running svc_xprt_enqueue() could re-add an
xprt to an sp_sockets list just before it was deleted. The fix was to
remove it from the list at the end of svc_delete_xprt(). But that only
made corruption less likely--I can see nothing that prevents a
svc_xprt_enqueue() from adding another xprt to the list at the same
moment that we're removing this xprt from the list. In fact, despite
the earlier xpo_detach(), I don't even see what guarantees that
svc_xprt_enqueue() couldn't still be running on this xprt.
So, instead, note that svc_xprt_enqueue() essentially does:
lock sp_lock
if XPT_BUSY unset
add to sp_sockets
unlock sp_lock
So, if we do:
set XPT_BUSY on every xprt.
Empty every sp_sockets list, under the sp_socks locks.
Then we're left knowing that the sp_sockets lists are all empty and will
stay that way, since any svc_xprt_enqueue() will check XPT_BUSY under
the sp_lock and see it set.
And *then* we can continue deleting the xprt's.
(Thanks to Jeff Layton for being correctly suspicious of this code....)

The pool_to and to_pool fields of the global svc_pool_map are freed on
shutdown, but are initialized in nfsd startup only in the
SVC_POOL_PERCPU and SVC_POOL_PERNODE cases.
They *are* initialized to zero on kernel startup. So as long as you use
only SVC_POOL_GLOBAL (the default), this will never be a problem.
You're also OK if you only ever use SVC_POOL_PERCPU or SVC_POOL_PERNODE.
However, the following sequence events leads to a double-free:
1. set SVC_POOL_PERCPU or SVC_POOL_PERNODE
2. start nfsd: both fields are initialized.
3. shutdown nfsd: both fields are freed.
4. set SVC_POOL_GLOBAL
5. start nfsd: the fields are left untouched.
6. shutdown nfsd: now we try to free them again.
Step 4 is actually unnecessary, since (for some bizarre reason), nfsd
automatically resets the pool mode to SVC_POOL_GLOBAL on shutdown.

Thomas Lange reported that when he did a 'make localmodconfig', his
config was missing the brcmsmac driver, even though he had the module
loaded.
Looking into this, I found the file:
drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211/brcmsmac/Makefile
had the following in the Makefile:
MODULEPFX := brcmsmac
obj-$(CONFIG_BRCMSMAC) += $(MODULEPFX).o
The way streamline-config.pl works, is parsing all the
obj-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.o
lines to find that CONFIG_FOO belongs to the module foo.ko.
But in this case, the brcmsmac.o was not used, but a variable in its place.
By changing streamline-config.pl to remember defined variables in Makefiles
and substituting them when they are used in the obj-X lines, allows
Thomas (and others) to have their brcmsmac module stay configured
when it is loaded and running "make localmodconfig".

Multiple users of the function tracer can register their functions
with the ftrace_ops structure. The accounting within ftrace will
update the counter on each function record that is being traced.
When the ftrace_ops filtering adds or removes functions, the
function records will be updated accordingly if the ftrace_ops is
still registered.
When a ftrace_ops is removed, the counter of the function records,
that the ftrace_ops traces, are decremented. When they reach zero
the functions that they represent are modified to stop calling the
mcount code.
When changes are made, the code is updated via stop_machine() with
a command passed to the function to tell it what to do. There is an
ENABLE and DISABLE command that tells the called function to enable
or disable the functions. But the ENABLE is really a misnomer as it
should just update the records, as records that have been enabled
and now have a count of zero should be disabled.
The DISABLE command is used to disable all functions regardless of
their counter values. This is the big off switch and is not the
complement of the ENABLE command.
To make matters worse, when a ftrace_ops is unregistered and there
is another ftrace_ops registered, neither the DISABLE nor the
ENABLE command are set when calling into the stop_machine() function
and the records will not be updated to match their counter. A command
is passed to that function that will update the mcount code to call
the registered callback directly if it is the only one left. This
means that the ftrace_ops that is still registered will have its callback
called by all functions that have been set for it as well as the ftrace_ops
that was just unregistered.
Here's a way to trigger this bug. Compile the kernel with
CONFIG_FUNCTION_PROFILER set and with CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH not set:
CONFIG_FUNCTION_PROFILER=y
# CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH is not set
This will force the function profiler to use the function tracer instead
of the function graph tracer.
The same problem could have happened with the trace_probe_ops,
but they are modified with the set_frace_filter file which does the
update at closure of the file.
The simple solution is to change ENABLE to UPDATE and call it every
time an ftrace_ops is unregistered.
Since commit 080d676de095 ("aio: allocate kiocbs in batches") iocbs are
allocated in a batch during processing of first iocbs. All iocbs in a
batch are automatically added to ctx->active_reqs list and accounted in
ctx->reqs_active.
If one (not the last one) of iocbs submitted by an user fails, further
iocbs are not processed, but they are still present in ctx->active_reqs
and accounted in ctx->reqs_active. This causes process to stuck in a D
state in wait_for_all_aios() on exit since ctx->reqs_active will never
go down to zero. Furthermore since kiocb_batch_free() frees iocb
without removing it from active_reqs list the list become corrupted
which may cause oops.
Fix this by removing iocb from ctx->active_reqs and updating
ctx->reqs_active in kiocb_batch_free().
If ctrls->count is too high the multiplication could overflow and
array_size would be lower than expected. Mauro and Hans Verkuil

Commit ef6a3c6311 ("mm: add replace_page_cache_page() function") added a
function replace_page_cache_page(). This function replaces a page in the
radix-tree with a new page. WHen doing this, memory cgroup needs to fix
up the accounting information. memcg need to check PCG_USED bit etc.
In some(many?) cases, 'newpage' is on LRU before calling
replace_page_cache(). So, memcg's LRU accounting information should be
fixed, too.
This patch adds mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache() and removes the old hooks.
In that function, old pages will be unaccounted without touching
res_counter and new page will be accounted to the memcg (of old page).
WHen overwriting pc->mem_cgroup of newpage, take zone->lru_lock and avoid
races with LRU handling.
Background:
replace_page_cache_page() is called by FUSE code in its splice() handling.
Here, 'newpage' is replacing oldpage but this newpage is not a newly allocated
page and may be on LRU. LRU mis-accounting will be critical for memory cgroup
because rmdir() checks the whole LRU is empty and there is no account leak.
If a page is on the other LRU than it should be, rmdir() will fail.
This bug was added in March 2011, but no bug report yet. I guess there
are not many people who use memcg and FUSE at the same time with upstream
kernels.
The result of this bug is that admin cannot destroy a memcg because of
account leak. So, no panic, no deadlock. And, even if an active cgroup
exist, umount can succseed. So no problem at shutdown.
The commit "ath9k: Fix invalid noisefloor reading due to channel update"
preserves the current channel noisefloor readings before updating
channel type at the same channel index. It is also updating the curchan
pointer. As survey updation is also referring curchan pointer to fetch
the appropriate index, which might leads to invalid memory access. This
patch partially reverts the change and stores the noise floor history
buffer before updating channel type w/o updating curchan.

Some Dell BIOSes have MCFG tables that don't report the entire
MMCONFIG area claimed by the chipset. If we move PCI devices into
that claimed-but-unreported area, they don't work.
This quirk reads the AMD MMCONFIG MSRs and adds PNP0C01 resources as
needed to cover the entire area.
Example problem scenario:
BIOS-e820: 00000000cfec5400 - 00000000d4000000 (reserved)
Fam 10h mmconf [d0000000, dfffffff]

pci 0000:00:12.0: reg 10: [mem 0xffb00000-0xffb00fff]
pci 0000:00:12.0: no compatible bridge window for [mem 0xffb00000-0xffb00fff]

Zhihua Che reported a possible memleak in slub allocator on
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y builds.
It is possible current thread migrates right before disabling irqs in
__slab_alloc(). We must check again c->freelist, and perform a normal
allocation instead of scratching c->freelist.
Many thanks to Zhihua Che for spotting this bug, introduced in 2.6.39
V2: Its also possible an IRQ freed one (or several) object(s) and
populated c->freelist, so its not a CONFIG_PREEMPT only problem.

Info about new measurements are cached in the iint for performance. When
the inode is flushed from cache, the associated iint is flushed as well.
Subsequent access to the inode will cause the inode to be re-measured and
will attempt to add a duplicate entry to the measurement list.
This patch frees the duplicate measurement memory, fixing a memory leak.
There is a potential integer overflow in process_msg() that could result
in cross-domain attack.
body = kmalloc(msg->hdr.len + 1, GFP_NOIO | __GFP_HIGH);
When a malicious guest passes 0xffffffff in msg->hdr.len, the subsequent
call to xb_read() would write to a zero-length buffer.
The other end of this connection is always the xenstore backend daemon
so there is no guest (malicious or otherwise) which can do this. The
xenstore daemon is a trusted component in the system.
However this seem like a reasonable robustness improvement so we should
have it.
And Ian when read the API docs found that:
The payload length (len field of the header) is limited to 4096
(XENSTORE_PAYLOAD_MAX) in both directions. If a client exceeds the
limit, its xenstored connection will be immediately killed by
xenstored, which is usually catastrophic from the client's point of
view. Clients (particularly domains, which cannot just reconnect)
should avoid this.
so this patch checks against that instead.
This also avoids a potential integer overflow pointed out by Haogang Chen.

The amount of memory required for tracking chain buffers is rather
large, and when the host credit count is big, memory allocation
failure occurs inside __get_free_pages.
The fix is to limit the number of chains to 100,000. In addition,
the number of host credits is limited to 30,000 IOs. However this
limitation can be overridden this using the command line option
max_queue_depth. The algorithm for calculating the
reply_post_queue_depth is changed so that it is equal to
(reply_free_queue_depth + 16), previously it was (reply_free_queue_depth * 2).
Added code to release the spinlock that is used to protect the
raid device list before calling a function that can block. The
blocking was causing a reschedule, and subsequently it is tried
to acquire the same lock, resulting in a panic (NMI Watchdog
detecting a CPU lockup).
We only need amd_bus.o for AMD systems with PCI. arch/x86/pci/Makefile
already depends on CONFIG_PCI=y, so this patch just adds the dependency
on CONFIG_AMD_NB.
This factors out the AMD native MMCONFIG discovery so we can use it
outside amd_bus.c.
amd_bus.c reads AMD MSRs so it can remove the MMCONFIG area from the
PCI resources. We may also need the MMCONFIG information to work
around BIOS defects in the ACPI MCFG table.
This assures that a _CRS reserved host bridge window or window region is
not used if it is not addressable by the CPU. The new code either trims
the window to exclude the non-addressable portion or totally ignores the
window if the entire window is non-addressable.
The current code has been shown to be problematic with 32-bit non-PAE
kernels on systems where _CRS reserves resources above 4GB.

I traced a nasty kexec on panic boot failure to the fact that we had
screaming msi interrupts and we were not disabling the msi messages at
kernel startup. The booting kernel had not enabled those interupts so
was not prepared to handle them.
I can see no reason why we would ever want to leave the msi interrupts
enabled at boot if something else has enabled those interrupts. The pci
spec specifies that msi interrupts should be off by default. Drivers
are expected to enable the msi interrupts if they want to use them. Our
interrupt handling code reprograms the interrupt handlers at boot and
will not be be able to do anything useful with an unexpected interrupt.
This patch applies cleanly all of the way back to 2.6.32 where I noticed
the problem.

When we fail to erase a PEB, we free the corresponding erase entry object,
but then re-schedule this object if the error code was something like -EAGAIN.
Obviously, it is a bug to use the object after we have freed it.
Setting the security context of a NFSv4 mount via the context= mount
option is currently broken. The NFSv4 codepath allocates a parsed
options struct, and then parses the mount options to fill it. It
eventually calls nfs4_remote_mount which calls security_init_mnt_opts.
That clobbers the lsm_opts struct that was populated earlier. This bug
also looks like it causes a small memory leak on each v4 mount where
context= is used.
Fix this by moving the initialization of the lsm_opts into
nfs_alloc_parsed_mount_data. Also, add a destructor for
nfs_parsed_mount_data to make it easier to free all of the allocations
hanging off of it, and to ensure that the security_free_mnt_opts is
called whenever security_init_mnt_opts is.
I believe this regression was introduced quite some time ago, probably
by commit c02d7adf.
The NFSv4 bitmap size is unbounded: a server can return an arbitrary
sized bitmap in an FATTR4_WORD0_ACL request. Replace using the
nfs4_fattr_bitmap_maxsz as a guess to the maximum bitmask returned by a server
with the inclusion of the bitmap (xdr length plus bitmasks) and the acl data
xdr length to the (cached) acl page data.
This is a general solution to commit e5012d1f "NFSv4.1: update
nfs4_fattr_bitmap_maxsz" and fixes hitting a BUG_ON in xdr_shrink_bufhead
when getting ACLs.
Fix a bug in decode_getacl that returned -EINVAL on ACLs > page when getxattr
was called with a NULL buffer, preventing ACL > PAGE_SIZE from being retrieved.
Previously an error from filemap_write_and_wait_range would only be of
interest if nfs_file_fsync did not return an error. After this commit,
an error from filemap_write_and_wait_range would mean that (the rest of)
nfs_file_fsync would not even be called.
This means that:
1/ you are more likely to see EIO than e.g. EDQUOT or ENOSPC.
2/ NFS_CONTEXT_ERROR_WRITE remains set for longer so more writes are
synchronous.
This patch restores previous behaviour.

Lukas Razik <linux@razik.name> reports that on his SPARC system,
booting with an NFS root file system stopped working after commit 56463e50 "NFS: Use super.c for NFSROOT mount option parsing."
We found that the network switch to which Lukas' client was attached
was delaying access to the LAN after the client's NIC driver reported
that its link was up. The delay was longer than the timeouts used in
the NFS client during mounting.
NFSROOT worked for Lukas before commit 56463e50 because in those
kernels, the client's first operation was an rpcbind request to
determine which port the NFS server was listening on. When that
request failed after a long timeout, the client simply selected the
default NFS port (2049). By that time the switch was allowing access
to the LAN, and the mount succeeded.
Neither of these client behaviors is desirable, so reverting 56463e50
is really not a choice. Instead, introduce a mechanism that retries
the NFSROOT mount request several times. This is the same tactic that
normal user space NFS mounts employ to overcome server and network
delays.
As mandated by the standard. In case of an IO error, a pNFS
objects layout driver must return it's layout. This is because
all device errors are reported to the server as part of the
layout return buffer.
This is implemented the same way PNFS_LAYOUTRET_ON_SETATTR
is done, through a bit flag on the pnfs_layoutdriver_type->flags
member. The flag is set by the layout driver that wants a
layout_return preformed at pnfs_ld_{write,read}_done in case
of an error.
(Though I have not defined a wrapper like pnfs_ld_layoutret_on_setattr
because this code is never called outside of pnfs.c and pnfs IO
paths)
Without this patch 3.[0-2] Kernels leak memory and have an annoying
WARN_ON after every IO error utilizing the pnfs-obj driver.
Some time along the way pNFS IO errors were switched to
communicate with a special iodata->pnfs_error member instead
of the regular RPC members. But objlayout was not switched
over.
Fix that!
Without this fix any IO error is hanged, because IO is not
switched to MDS and pages are never cleared or read.

This change was verified to fix both issues with no video I've
investigated. I've also checked checksum calculation with fglrx on:
RV620, HD54xx, HD5450, HD6310, HD6320.
When multiple headphone or other detectable output pins are present,
the power-map has to be updated after resume appropriately, but the
current driver doesn't check all pins but only the first pin (since
it's enough to check it for the mute-behavior). This resulted in the
silent output from the secondary outputs after PM resume.
This patch fixes the problem by checking all pins at (re-)init time.
Currently the driver checks only the out_mix_path[] for the primary
output route for judging whether to create the loopback-mixing control
or not. But, there are cases where aamix-routing is available only on
headphone or speaker paths but not on the primary output path. So, the
driver ignores such cases inappropriately.
This patch fixes the check of the loopback-mixing control by testing
all mix-routing paths.
When an invalid NID is given, get_wcaps() returns zero as the error,
but get_wcaps_type() takes it as the normal value and returns a bogus
AC_WID_AUD_OUT value. This confuses the parser.
With this patch, get_wcaps_type() returns -1 when value 0 is given,
i.e. an invalid NID is passed to get_wcaps().
These laptops can work well with the auto-parser and their BIOS setups,
and in addition, the auto-parser fixes the problem with S3/S4 where
the unsol event handling is killed after resume due to fallback to the
single-cmd mode.
With some buggy devices, the usb-audio driver may give "frame xxx active"
kernel messages too often. Better to keep it as debug-only using
snd_printdd(), and also add the rate-limit for avoiding floods.
Commit 503358ae01b70ce6909d19dd01287093f6b6271c ("ext4: avoid divide by
zero when trying to mount a corrupted file system") fixes CVE-2009-4307
by performing a sanity check on s_log_groups_per_flex, since it can be
set to a bogus value by an attacker.
This patch fixes two potential issues in the previous commit.
1) The sanity check might only work on architectures like PowerPC.
On x86, 5 bits are used for the shifting amount. That means, given a
large s_log_groups_per_flex value like 36, groups_per_flex = 1 << 36
is essentially 1 << 4 = 16, rather than 0. This will bypass the check,
leaving s_log_groups_per_flex and groups_per_flex inconsistent.
2) The sanity check relies on undefined behavior, i.e., oversized shift.
A standard-confirming C compiler could rewrite the check in unexpected
ways. Consider the following equivalent form, assuming groups_per_flex
is unsigned for simplicity.
We compile the code snippet using Clang 3.0 and GCC 4.6. Clang will
completely optimize away the check groups_per_flex == 0, leaving the
patched code as vulnerable as the original. GCC keeps the check, but
there is no guarantee that future versions will do the same.

Online resize ioctls 'EXT4_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND' and 'EXT4_IOC_GROUP_ADD'
call ext4_resize_begin() to check permissions and to set the
EXT4_RESIZING bit lock, they do their work and they must finish with
ext4_resize_end() which calls clear_bit_unlock() to unlock and to
avoid -EBUSY errors for the next resize operations.
This patch adds the missing ext4_resize_end() calls on error paths.
Commit f44f7f96a20a ("RTC: Initialize kernel state from RTC") introduced a
potential infinite loop. If an alarm time contains a wildcard month and
an invalid day (> 31), or a wildcard year and an invalid month (>= 12),
the loop searching for the next matching date will never terminate. Treat
the invalid values as wildcards.
But on these error paths, the block device's `dev->open' count is
already incremented before we check for errors. This meant that, while
the error path was handled correctly on the first time through
blktrans_open(), the device is erroneously considered already open on
the second time through.
This problem can be seen, for instance, when a UBI volume is
simultaneously mounted as a UBIFS partition and read through its
corresponding gluebi mtdblockX device. This results in blktrans_open()
passing its error checks (with `dev->open > 0') without actually having
a handle on the device. Here's a summarized log of the actions and
results with nandsim:
The array of unsigned long pointed by oops_page_used is allocated
by vmalloc which requires the size to be in bytes.
BITS_PER_LONG is equal to 32.
If we want to allocate memory for 32 pages with one bit per page then
32 / BITS_PER_LONG is equal to 1 byte that is 8 bits.
To fix it we need to multiply the result by sizeof(unsigned long) equal to 4.

usb: cdc-acm: Fix acm_tty_hangup() vs. acm_tty_close() race
[Not upstream as it was fixed differently for 3.3 with a much more
"intrusive" rework of the driver - gregkh]
There is a race condition involving acm_tty_hangup() and acm_tty_close()
where hangup() would attempt to access tty->driver_data without proper
locking and NULL checking after close() has potentially already set it
to NULL. One possibility to (sporadically) trigger this behavior is to
perform a suspend/resume cycle with a running WWAN data connection.
This patch addresses the issue by introducing a NULL check for
tty->driver_data in acm_tty_hangup() protected by open_mutex and exiting
gracefully when hangup() is invoked on a device that has already been
closed.
If slave device already has a receive handler registered, then the
error unwind of bonding device enslave function is broken.
The following will leave a pointer to freed memory in the slave
device list, causing a later kernel panic.
# modprobe dummy
# ip li add dummy0-1 link dummy0 type macvlan
# modprobe bonding
# echo +dummy0 >/sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
The fix is to detach the slave (which removes it from the list)
in the unwind path.
