However for RAID0 and Linear, 0.90 doesn't need to record the size, so
this truncation is not needed and causes working arrays to become too small.

When pkcs_1_v1_5_decode_emsa() returns without error and hash sizes do
not match, hash comparision is not done and digsig_verify_rsa() returns
no error. This is a bug and this patch fixes it.
The bug was introduced in v3.3 by commit b35e286a640f ("lib/digsig:
pkcs_1_v1_5_decode_emsa cleanup").
The following build error occurred during an alpha build:
net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant
Dave Anglin says:
> Here is the line in sock.i:
>
> struct static_key memalloc_socks = ((struct static_key) { .enabled =
> ((atomic_t) { (0) }) });
The above line contains two compound literals. It also uses a designated
initializer to initialize the field enabled. A compound literal is not a
constant expression.
The location of the above statement isn't fully clear, but if a compound
literal occurs outside the body of a function, the initializer list must
consist of constant expressions.

This is a completely different CONFIG_HOTPLUG problem, only
demonstrating another reason why CONFIG_HOTPLUG should go away. I had a
hard time trying to disable it anyway ;-)
The problem this time is lots of code assuming that a call to
add_uevent_var() will guarantee that env->buflen > 0. This is not true
if CONFIG_HOTPLUG is unset. So things like this end up overwriting
env->envp_idx because the array index is -1:
if (add_uevent_var(env, "MODALIAS="))
return -ENOMEM;
len = input_print_modalias(&env->buf[env->buflen - 1],
sizeof(env->buf) - env->buflen,
dev, 0);
Don't know what the best action is, given that there seem to be a *lot*
of this around the kernel. This patch "fixes" the problem for me, but I
don't know if it can be considered an appropriate fix.
[ It is the correct fix for now, for 3.7 forcing CONFIG_HOTPLUG to
always be on is the longterm fix, but it's too late for 3.6 and older
kernels to resolve this that way - gregkh ]

For several MoviNAND eMMC parts, there are known issues with secure
erase and secure trim. For these specific MoviNAND devices, we skip
these operations.
Specifically, there is a bug in the eMMC firmware that causes
unrecoverable corruption when the MMC is erased with MMC_CAP_ERASE
enabled.
Even if the datasheet says that the not busy flag has to be used only
for write operations, it's false except for version lesser than v2xx.
Not waiting on the not busy flag for read operations can cause the
controller to hang-up during the initialization of some SD cards
with DMA after the first CMD6 -- the next command is sent too early.
Since commit 30832ab56 ("mmc: sdhci: Always pass clock request value
zero to set_clock host op") was merged, esdhc_set_clock starts hitting
"if (clock == 0)" where ESDHC_SYSTEM_CONTROL has been operated. This
causes SDHCI card-detection function being broken. Fix the regression
by moving "if (clock == 0)" above ESDHC_SYSTEM_CONTROL operation.

It turns out that there are ACPI BIOSes defining device objects with
_PSx and without either _PSC or _PRx. For devices corresponding to
those ACPI objetcs __acpi_bus_get_power() returns ACPI_STATE_UNKNOWN
and their initial power states are regarded as unknown as a result.
If such a device is a parent of another power-manageable device, the
child cannot be put into a low-power state through ACPI, because
__acpi_bus_set_power() refuses to change power states of devices
whose parents' power states are unknown.
To work around this problem, observe that the ACPI power state of
a device cannot be higher-power (lower-number) than the power state
of its parent. Thus, if the device's _PSC method or the
configuration of its power resources indicates that the device is
in D0, the device's parent has to be in D0 as well. Consequently,
if the parent's power state is unknown when we've just learned that
its child's power state is D0, we can safely set the parent's
power.state field to ACPI_STATE_D0.

The unregister_sysctl_table() function hangs if all references to its
ctl_table_header structure are not dropped.
This can happen sometimes because of a leak in proc_sys_lookup():
proc_sys_lookup() gets a reference to the table via lookup_entry(), but
it does not release it when a subsequent call to sysctl_follow_link()
fails.
This patch fixes this leak by making sure the reference is always
dropped on return.
See also commit 076c3eed2c31 ("sysctl: Rewrite proc_sys_lookup
introducing find_entry and lookup_entry") which reorganized this code in
3.4.
added a device specific entry assuming that the device would use
class/subclass/proto == ff/ff/ff like other ZTE devices. It
turns out that ZTE has started using vendor specific subclass
and protocol codes:
We do not have any information on how ZTE intend to use these
codes, but let us assume for now that the 3 sets matching
serial functions in the K5006-Z always will identify a serial
function in a ZTE device.

has 16-bit AI resolution.
The description of the A/D LSB register at offset 0 seems incorrect in
the user manual "cio-das08jr-16-ao.pdf" as it implies that the AI
resolution is only 12 bits. The diagrams of the A/D LSB and MSB

When attaching a PCI device manually via the comedi driver `attach` hook
(`pci224_attach()`) (called by the comedi core for the
`COMEDI_DEVCONFIG` ioctl), its reference count is incremented in the
`for_each_pci_dev` loop (in `pci224_find_pci_dev()`). It is decremented
when the `detach` hook (`pci224_detach()`) is called to detach the
device. However, when the PCI device is attached automatically via the
`attach_pci` hook (`pci224_attach_pci()`, called at probe time via
`comedi_pci_auto_config()`) it's reference count is not incremented so
there will be an unmatched decrement when detaching the device.
Increment the PCI device reference count in `pci224_attach_pci()` to
correct the mismatch.
Once support for manual configuration has been removed from this driver,
the calls to `pci_dev_get()` and `pci_dev_put()` can be removed.

This patch fixes a race condition that results in memory
corruption when using cleancache.
The race exists between the zcache shrinker handler,
shrink_zcache_memory() and cleancache_get_page().
In most cases, the shrinker will both evict a zbpg
from its buddy list and flush it from tmem before a
cleancache_get_page() occurs on that page. A subsequent
cleancache_get_page() will fail in the tmem layer.
In the rare case that two occur together and the
cleancache_get_page() path gets through the tmem
layer before the shrinker path can flush tmem,
zbud_decompress() does a check to see if the zbpg is a
"zombie", i.e. not on a buddy list, which means the shrinker
is in the process of reclaiming it. If the zbpg is a zombie,
zbud_decompress() returns -EINVAL.
However, this return code is being ignored by the caller,
zcache_pampd_get_data_and_free(), which results in the
caller of cleancache_get_page() thinking that the page has
been properly retrieved when it has not.
This patch modifies zcache_pampd_get_data_and_free() to
convey the failure up the stack so that the caller of
cleancache_get_page() knows the page retrieval failed.
This needs to be applied to stable trees as well.
zcache-main.c was named zcache.c before v3.1, so
I'm not sure how you want to handle trees earlier
than that.

On recent kernels, Realtek codec parser tries to optimize the routing
aggressively and take the headphone output as primary at first. This
caused a regression on VAIO Z with ALC889, the silent output from the
speaker.
The problem seems that the speaker pin must be connected to the first
DAC (0x02) on this machine by some reason although the codec itself
advertises the flexible routing with any DACs.
This patch adds a fix-up for choosing the speaker pin as the primary
so that the right DAC is assigned on this device.
The AK4396 DAC has a linear-scale attentuator, but
sound/pci/ice1712/prodigy_hifi.c used a log scale instead, which is
not quite right. This patch restores the correct scale, borrowing
from the ak4396 code in sound/pci/oxygen/oxygen.c.
snd_hda_codec_reset() calls restore_pincfgs() where the codec is
powered up again, which eventually tries to resume and initialize via
the callbacks of the codec. However, it's the place just after codec
free callback, thus no codec callbacks should be called after that.
On a codec like CS4206, it results in Oops due to the access in init
callback.
This patch fixes the issue by clearing the codec callbacks properly
after freeing codec.
The recent fix for the missing fine delayed time adjustment gives
strange error messages at each start of the playback stream, such as
delay: estimated 0, actual 352
delay: estimated 353, actual 705
These come from the sanity check in retire_playback_urb(). Before the
stream is activated via start_endpoints(), a few silent packets have
been already sent. And at this point the delay account is still in
the state as if the new packets are just queued, so the driver gets
confused and spews the bogus error messages.
For fixing the issue, we just need to check whether the received
packet is valid, whether it's zero sized or not.
With the commit [2faa3bf: ALSA: hda - Rewrite the mute-LED hook with
vmaster hook in patch_sigmatel.c], the former Master volume control
was converted to PCM. This was supposed to be covered by the vmaster
control. But due to the lack of "PCM" slave definition, this didn't
happen properly. The patch fixes the missing entry.
This is caused by the 'reserved' entries which we insert (see 19b52abe3c5d7 - ARM: 7438/1: fill possible PMD empty section gaps)
which get matched for physical address zero.

This patch fixes a long-standing bug with SCSI overflow handling
where se_cmd->data_length was incorrectly being re-assigned to
the larger CDB extracted allocation length, resulting in a number
of fabric level errors that would end up causing a session reset
in most cases. So instead now:
- Only re-assign se_cmd->data_length durining UNDERFLOW (to use the
smaller value)
- Use existing se_cmd->data_length for OVERFLOW (to use the smaller
value)
This fix has been tested with the following CDB to generate an
SCSI overflow:
sg_raw -r512 /dev/sdc 28 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 9 0
Tested using iscsi-target, tcm_qla2xxx, loopback and tcm_vhost fabric

- iscsi-target: Bug with open-iscsi with overflow, sg_raw returns
-3584 bytes of data.
- tcm_qla2xxx: Working as expected, returnins 512 bytes of data
- loopback: sg_raw returns CHECK_CONDITION, from overflow rejection

- tcm_vhost: Same as loopback

After calling into the lower filesystem to do a rename, the lower target
inode's attributes were not copied up to the eCryptfs target inode. This
resulted in the eCryptfs target inode staying around, rather than being
evicted, because i_nlink was not updated for the eCryptfs inode. This
also meant that eCryptfs didn't do the final iput() on the lower target
inode so it stayed around, as well. This would result in a failure to
free up space occupied by the target file in the rename() operation.
Both target inodes would eventually be evicted when the eCryptfs
filesystem was unmounted.
This patch calls fsstack_copy_attr_all() after the lower filesystem
does its ->rename() so that important inode attributes, such as i_nlink,
are updated at the eCryptfs layer. ecryptfs_evict_inode() is now called
and eCryptfs can drop its final reference on the lower inode.

The nfs sillyrename fix used DCACHE_DISCONNECTED to indicate that the

which results in infinite retries when trying to traverse the dentry
tree.
This patch introduces a separate flag: DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED, which is
only set in d_kill() and makes try_to_ascend() test only this flag.
IBM reported successful test results with this patch.
We already use them for openat() and friends, but fstat() also wants to
be able to use O_PATH file descriptors. This should make it more
directly comparable to the O_SEARCH of Solaris.
Note that you could already do the same thing with "fstatat()" and an
empty path, but just doing "fstat()" directly is simpler and faster, so
there is no reason not to just allow it directly.
See also commit 332a2e1244bd, which did the same thing for fchdir, for

BUG_ON(rq != this_rq()) in try_to_wake_up_local() if it contends on
fidvid_mutex and sleeps.
It is unclear why this bug is being reported now. Duncan says it
appeared to be a regression of 3.6-rc1 and couldn't reproduce it on
3.5. Bisection seemed to point to 63d95a91 "workqueue: use @pool
instead of @gcwq or @cpu where applicable" which is an non-functional
change. Given that the reproduce case sometimes took upto days to
trigger, it's easy to be misled while bisecting. Maybe something made
contention on fidvid_mutex more likely? I don't know.
This patch fixes the bug by using work_on_cpu() instead if @pol->cpu
isn't the same as the current one. The code assumes that
cpufreq_policy->cpu is kept online by the caller, which Rafael tells
me is the case.
stable: ed48ece27c ("workqueue: reimplement work_on_cpu() using
system_wq") should be applied before this; otherwise, the
behavior could be horrible.

The existing work_on_cpu() implementation is hugely inefficient. It
creates a new kthread, execute that single function and then let the
kthread die on each invocation.
Now that system_wq can handle concurrent executions, there's no
advantage of doing this. Reimplement work_on_cpu() using system_wq
which makes it simpler and way more efficient.
stable: While this isn't a fix in itself, it's needed to fix a
workqueue related bug in cpufreq/powernow-k8. AFAICS, this
shouldn't break other existing users.

It's possible that packets that are sent on internal devices (from
the OVS perspective) have already traversed the local IP stack.
After they go through the internal device, they will again travel
through the IP stack which may get confused by the presence of
existing information in the skb. The problem can be observed
when switching between namespaces. This clears out that information
to avoid problems but deliberately leaves other metadata alone.
This is to provide maximum flexibility in chaining together OVS
and other Linux components.
The RxCFG register of the CS89x0 could be configured incorrectly
(because of misplaced parentheses), resulting in the disabling
of packet reception.

When tearing down a net namespace, ipv4 mr_table structures are freed
without first deactivating their timers. This can result in a crash in
run_timer_softirq.
This patch mimics the corresponding behaviour in ipv6.
Locking and synchronization seem to be adequate.
We are about to kfree mrt, so existing code should already make sure that
no other references to mrt are pending or can be created by incoming traffic.
The functions invoked here do not cause new references to mrt or other
race conditions to be created.
Invoking del_timer_sync guarantees that ipmr_expire_timer is inactive.
Both ipmr_expire_process (whose completion we may have to wait in
del_timer_sync) and mroute_clean_tables internally use mfc_unres_lock
or other synchronizations when needed, and they both only modify mrt.

The cwnd reduction in fast recovery is based on the number of packets
newly delivered per ACK. For non-sack connections every DUPACK
signifies a packet has been delivered, but the sender mistakenly
skips counting them for cwnd reduction.
The fix is to compute newly_acked_sacked after DUPACKs are accounted
in sacked_out for non-sack connections.

Non-root user-space processes can send Netlink messages to other
processes that are well-known for being subscribed to Netlink
asynchronous notifications. This allows ilegitimate non-root
process to send forged messages to Netlink subscribers.
The userspace process usually verifies the legitimate origin in
two ways:
a) Socket credentials. If UID != 0, then the message comes from
some ilegitimate process and the message needs to be dropped.
b) Netlink portID. In general, portID == 0 means that the origin
of the messages comes from the kernel. Thus, discarding any
message not coming from the kernel.
However, ctnetlink sets the portID in event messages that has
been triggered by some user-space process, eg. conntrack utility.
So other processes subscribed to ctnetlink events, eg. conntrackd,
know that the event was triggered by some user-space action.
Neither of the two ways to discard ilegitimate messages coming
from non-root processes can help for ctnetlink.
This patch adds capability validation in case that dst_pid is set
in netlink_sendmsg(). This approach is aggressive since existing
applications using any Netlink bus to deliver messages between
two user-space processes will break. Note that the exception is
NETLINK_USERSOCK, since it is reserved for netlink-to-netlink
userspace communication.
Still, if anyone wants that his Netlink bus allows netlink-to-netlink
userspace, then they can set NL_NONROOT_SEND. However, by default,
I don't think it makes sense to allow to use NETLINK_ROUTE to
communicate two processes that are sending no matter what information
that is not related to link/neighbouring/routing. They should be using
NETLINK_USERSOCK instead for that.

Pablo Neira Ayuso discovered that avahi and
potentially NetworkManager accept spoofed Netlink messages because of a
kernel bug. The kernel passes all-zero SCM_CREDENTIALS ancillary data
to the receiver if the sender did not provide such data, instead of not
including any such data at all or including the correct data from the
peer (as it is the case with AF_UNIX).
This bug was introduced in commit 16e572626961
(af_unix: dont send SCM_CREDENTIALS by default)
This patch forces passing credentials for netlink, as
before the regression.
Another fix would be to not add SCM_CREDENTIALS in
netlink messages if not provided by the sender, but it
might break some programs.

If a packet is emitted on one socket in one group of fanout sockets,
it is transmitted again. It is thus read again on one of the sockets
of the fanout group. This result in a loop for software which
generate packets when receiving one.
This retransmission is not the intended behavior: a fanout group
must behave like a single socket. The packet should not be
transmitted on a socket if it originates from a socket belonging
to the same fanout group.
This patch fixes the issue by changing the transmission check to
take fanout group info account.

Here's a quote of the comment about the BUG macro from asm-generic/bug.h:
Don't use BUG() or BUG_ON() unless there's really no way out; one
example might be detecting data structure corruption in the middle
of an operation that can't be backed out of. If the (sub)system
can somehow continue operating, perhaps with reduced functionality,
it's probably not BUG-worthy.
If you're tempted to BUG(), think again: is completely giving up
really the *only* solution? There are usually better options, where
users don't need to reboot ASAP and can mostly shut down cleanly.
In our case, the status flag of a ring buffer slot is managed from both sides,
the kernel space and the user space. This means that even though the kernel
side might work as expected, the user space screws up and changes this flag
right between the send(2) is triggered when the flag is changed to
TP_STATUS_SENDING and a given skb is destructed after some time. Then, this
will hit the BUG macro. As David suggested, the best solution is to simply
remove this statement since it cannot be used for kernel side internal
consistency checks. I've tested it and the system still behaves /stable/ in
this case, so in accordance with the above comment, we should rather remove it.

Currently an skb requiring TSO may not fit within a minimum-size TX
queue. The TX queue selected for the skb may stall and trigger the TX
watchdog repeatedly (since the problem skb will be retried after the
TX reset). This issue is designated as CVE-2012-3412.
Set the maximum number of TSO segments for our devices to 100. This
should make no difference to behaviour unless the actual MSS is less
than about 700. Increase the minimum TX queue size accordingly to
allow for 2 worst-case skbs, so that there will definitely be space
to add an skb after we wake a queue.

A peer (or local user) may cause TCP to use a nominal MSS of as little
as 88 (actual MSS of 76 with timestamps). Given that we have a
sufficiently prodigious local sender and the peer ACKs quickly enough,
it is nevertheless possible to grow the window for such a connection
to the point that we will try to send just under 64K at once. This
results in a single skb that expands to 861 segments.
In some drivers with TSO support, such an skb will require hundreds of
DMA descriptors; a substantial fraction of a TX ring or even more than
a full ring. The TX queue selected for the skb may stall and trigger
the TX watchdog repeatedly (since the problem skb will be retried
after the TX reset). This particularly affects sfc, for which the
issue is designated as CVE-2012-3412.
Therefore:
1. Add the field net_device::gso_max_segs holding the device-specific
limit.
2. In netif_skb_features(), if the number of segments is too high then
mask out GSO features to force fall back to software GSO.

If mmap_region()->uprobe_mmap() fails, unmap_and_free_vma path
does unmap_region() but does not remove the soon-to-be-freed vma
from rb tree. Actually there are more problems but this is how
William noticed this bug.
Perhaps we could do do_munmap() + return in this case, but in
fact it is simply wrong to abort if uprobe_mmap() fails. Until
at least we move the !UPROBE_COPY_INSN code from
install_breakpoint() to uprobe_register().
For example, uprobe_mmap()->install_breakpoint() can fail if the
probed insn is not supported (remember, uprobe_register()
succeeds if nobody mmaps inode/offset), mmap() should not fail
in this case.
dup_mmap()->uprobe_mmap() is wrong too by the same reason,
fork() can race with uprobe_register() and fail for no reason if
it wins the race and does install_breakpoint() first.
And, if nothing else, both mmap_region() and dup_mmap() return
success if uprobe_mmap() fails. Change them to ignore the error
code from uprobe_mmap().
When we do FLR and save PCI config we did it in the wrong order.
The end result was that if a PCI device was unbind from
its driver, then binded to xen-pciback, and then back to its
driver we would get:
We would traverse the full P2M top directory (from 0->MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES
inclusive) when trying to figure out whether we can re-use some of the
P2M middle leafs.
Which meant that if the kernel was compiled with MAX_DOMAIN_PAGES=512
we would try to use the 512th entry. Fortunately for us the p2m_top_index
has a check for this:
When running 32-bit pvops-dom0 and a driver tries to allocate a coherent
DMA-memory the xen swiotlb-implementation returned memory beyond 4GB.
The underlaying reason is that if the supplied driver passes in a
DMA_BIT_MASK(64) ( hwdev->coherent_dma_mask is set to 0xffffffffffffffff)
our dma_mask will be u64 set to 0xffffffffffffffff even if we set it to
DMA_BIT_MASK(32) previously. Meaning we do not reset the upper bits.
By using the dma_alloc_coherent_mask function - it does the proper casting
and we get 0xfffffffff.
This caused not working sound on a system with 4 GB and a 64-bit
compatible sound-card with sets the DMA-mask to 64bit.
On bare-metal and the forward-ported xen-dom0 patches from OpenSuse a coherent
DMA-memory is always allocated inside the 32-bit address-range by calling
dma_alloc_coherent_mask.
This patch adds the same functionality to xen swiotlb and is a rebase of the
original patch from Ronny Hegewald which never got upstream b/c the
underlaying reason was not understood until now.

The above line contains two compound literals. It also uses a designated
initializer to initialize the field enabled. A compound literal is not a
constant expression.
The location of the above statement isn't fully clear, but if a compound
literal occurs outside the body of a function, the initializer list must
consist of constant expressions.
With a low enough MSS on the link partner and TSO enabled locally, the
networking stack can periodically send a very large (e.g. 64KB) TCP
message for which the driver will attempt to use more Tx descriptors than
are available by default in the Tx ring. This is due to a workaround in
the code that imposes a limit of only 4 MSS-sized segments per descriptor
which appears to be a carry-over from the older e1000 driver and may be
applicable only to some older PCI or PCIx parts which are not supported in
e1000e. When the driver gets a message that is too large to fit across the
configured number of Tx descriptors, it stops the upper stack from queueing
any more and gets stuck in this state. After a timeout, the upper stack
assumes the adapter is hung and calls the driver to reset it.
Remove the unnecessary limitation of using up to only 4 MSS-sized segments
per Tx descriptor, and put in a hard failure test to catch when attempting
to check for message sizes larger than would fit in the whole Tx ring.
Refactor the remaining logic that limits the size of data per Tx descriptor
from a seemingly arbitrary 8KB to a limit based on the dynamic size of the
Tx packet buffer as described in the hardware specification.
Also, fix the logic in the check for space in the Tx ring for the next
largest possible packet after the current one has been successfully queued
for transmit, and use the appropriate defines for default ring sizes in
e1000_probe instead of magic values.
This issue goes back to the introduction of e1000e in 2.6.24 when it was
split off from e1000.

omapfb does not currently set pseudo palette correctly for color depths
above 16bpp, making red text invisible, command like
echo -e '\e[0;31mRED' > /dev/tty1
will display nothing on framebuffer console in 24bpp mode.
This is because temporary variable is declared incorrectly, fix it.
