After upgrading a L2TP server to 2.6.33 it started to fail, tunnels going up an
down, after the 10th tunnel came up. My modified rp-l2tp uses a global
unconnected socket bound to (INADDR_ANY, 1701) and one connected socket per
tunnel after parameter negotiation.
After ten sockets were open and due to mixed parameters to
udp[46]_lib_lookup2() kernel started to drop packets.

The following situation was observed in the field:
tap1 sends packets, tap2 does not consume them, as a result
tap1 can not be closed. This happens because
tun/tap devices can hang on to skbs undefinitely.
As noted by Herbert, possible solutions include a timeout followed by a
copy/change of ownership of the skb, or always copying/changing
ownership if we're going into a hostile device.
This patch implements the second approach.
Note: one issue still remaining is that since skbs
keep reference to tun socket and tun socket has a
reference to tun device, we won't flush backlog,
instead simply waiting for all skbs to get transmitted.
At least this is not user-triggerable, and
this was not reported in practice, my assumption is
other devices besides tap complete an skb
within finite time after it has been queued.
A possible solution for the second issue
would not to have socket reference the device,
instead, implement dev->destructor for tun, and
wait for all skbs to complete there, but this
needs some thought, probably too risky for 2.6.34.

What happens is that, when the tipc module in inserted it enters a standalone
node mode in which communication to its own address is allowed <0.0.0> but not
to other addresses, since the appropriate data structures have not been
allocated yet (specifically the tipc_net pointer). There is nothing stopping a
client from trying to send such a message however, and if that happens, we
attempt to dereference tipc_net.zones while the pointer is still NULL, and
explode. The fix is pretty straightforward. Since these oopses all arise from
the dereference of global pointers prior to their assignment to allocated
values, and since these allocations are small (about 2k total), lets convert
these pointers to static arrays of the appropriate size. All the accesses to
these bits consider 0/NULL to be a non match when searching, so all the lookups
still work properly, and there is no longer a chance of a bad dererence
anywhere. As a bonus, this lets us eliminate the setup/teardown routines for
those pointers, and elimnates the need to preform any locking around them to
prevent access while their being allocated/freed.
I've updated the tipc_net structure to behave this way to fix the exact reported
problem, and also fixed up the tipc_bearers and media_list arrays to fix an
obvious simmilar problem that arises from issuing tipc-config commands to
manipulate bearers/links prior to entering networked mode
I've tested this for a few hours by running the sanity tests and stress test
with the tipcutils suite, and nothing has fallen over. There have been a few
lockdep warnings, but those were there before, and can be addressed later, as
they didn't actually result in any deadlock.

It has been reported that under certain heavy traffic conditions in MSI-X
mode, the driver can lose an MSI-X vector causing all packets in the
associated rx/tx ring pair to be dropped. The problem is caused by
the chip dropping the write to unmask the MSI-X vector by the kernel
(when migrating the IRQ for example).
This can be prevented by increasing the GRC timeout value for these

creds_are_invalid() reads both cred->usage and cred->subscribers and then
compares them to make sure the number of processes subscribed to a cred struct
never exceeds the refcount of that cred struct.
The problem is that this can cause a race with both copy_creds() and
exit_creds() as the two counters, whilst they are of atomic_t type, are only
atomic with respect to themselves, and not atomic with respect to each other.
This means that if creds_are_invalid() can read the values on one CPU whilst
they're being modified on another CPU, and so can observe an evolving state in
which the subscribers count now is greater than the usage count a moment
before.
Switching the order in which the counts are read cannot help, so the thing to
do is to remove that particular check.
I had considered rechecking the values to see if they're in flux if the test
fails, but I can't guarantee they won't appear the same, even if they've
changed several times in the meantime.
Note that this can only happen if CONFIG_DEBUG_CREDENTIALS is enabled.
The problem is only likely to occur with multithreaded programs, and can be
tested by the tst-eintr1 program from glibc's "make check". The symptoms look
like:
The unpack routine fails to handle the decompress_method() returning
unrecognised decompressor (compress_name == NULL). This results in the
routine looping eventually oopsing on an out of bounds memory access.
Note this bug is usually hidden, only triggering on trailing junk after
one or more correct compressed blocks. The case of the compressed archive
being complete junk is (by accident?) caught by the if (state != Reset)
check because state is initialised to Start, but not updated due to the
decompressor not having been called. Obviously if the junk is trailing a
correctly decompressed buffer, state == Reset from the previous call to
the decompressor.

ext4_fiemap() rounds the length of the requested range down to
blocksize, which is is not the true number of blocks that cover the
requested region. This problem is especially impressive if the user
requests only the first byte of a file: not a single extent will be
reported.
We fix this by calculating the last block of the region and then
subtract to find the number of blocks in the extents.
Most drives from Seagate, Hitachi, and possibly other brands,
do not allow LBA28 access to sector number 0x0fffffff (2^28 - 1).
So instead use LBA48 for such accesses.
This bug could bite a lot of systems, especially when the user has
taken care to align partitions to 4KB boundaries. On misaligned systems,
it is less likely to be encountered, since a 4KB read would end at
0x10000000 rather than at 0x0fffffff.

One side effect of it is that num_k8_northbridges
is not initialized anymore if not explicitly
called. This resulted in uninitialized pointers in
<arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c:amd_calc_l3_indices()>,

Fix that through an initcall that runs right after the PCI
subsystem and does all the scanning. Then, remove initialization
in gart_iommu_init() which is a rootfs_initcall and we're
running before that.
What is more, since num_k8_northbridges is being used in other
places beside GART IOMMU, include it whenever we add AMD CPU
support. The previous dependency chain in kconfig contained
K8_NB depends on AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU
which was clearly incorrect. The more natural way in terms of
hardware dependency should be
AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU depends on K8_NB depends on CPU_SUP_AMD &&
PCI. Make it so Number One!

Use correct bit positions in DM_SHARED_CTRL register for writes.
Michael Planes recently encountered a 'KY-RS9600 USB-LAN converter', which
came with a driver CD containing a Linux driver. This driver turns out to
be a copy of dm9601.c with symbols renamed and my copyright stripped.
That aside, it did contain 1 functional change in dm_write_shared_word(),
and after checking the datasheet the original value was indeed wrong
(read versus write bits).
On Michaels HW, this change bumps receive speed from ~30KB/s to ~900KB/s.
On other devices the difference is less spectacular, but still significant
(~30%).

It changes user-visible sysfs interfaces, and breaks some existing user
space applications which apparently rely on the fact that the output
does not contain the "0x" prefix.
blk_rq_timed_out_timer() relied on blk_add_timer() never returning a
timer value of zero, but commit 7838c15b8dd18e78a523513749e5b54bda07b0cb
removed the code that bumped this value when it was zero.
Therefore when jiffies is near wrap we could get unlucky & not set the
timeout value correctly.
This patch uses a flag to indicate that the timeout value was set and so
handles jiffies wrap correctly, and it keeps all the logic in one
function so should be easier to maintain in the future.
The raid6 recovery code should immediately drop back to the optimized

Some FSC hardware monitoring chips (Syleus at least) doesn't like
quick writes we typically use to probe for I2C chips. Use a regular
byte read instead for the address they live at (0x73). These are the
only known chips living at this address on PC systems.
For clarity, this fix should not be needed for kernels 2.6.30 and
later, as we started instantiating the hwmon devices explicitly based
on DMI data. Still, this fix is valuable in the following two cases:
* Support for recent FSC chips on older kernels. The DMI-based device
instantiation is more difficult to backport than the device support
itself.
* Case where the DMI-based device instantiation fails, whatever the
reason. We fall back to probing in that case, so it should work.

This patch makes the HyperV network device use the same naming scheme as
other virtual drivers (Xen, KVM). In an ideal world, userspace tools
would not care what the name is, but some users and applications do
care. Vyatta CLI is one of the tools that does depend on what the name
is.
NFSv4 mounts ignore the rsize and wsize mount options, and always use
the default transfer size for both. This seems to be because all
NFSv4 mounts are now cloned, and the cloning logic doesn't copy the
rsize and wsize settings from the parent nfs_server.
I tested Fedora's 2.6.32.11-99 and it seems to have this problem as
well, so I'm guessing that .33, .32, and perhaps older kernels have
this issue as well.
If dentry found stale happens to be a root of disconnected tree, we
can't d_drop() it; its d_hash is actually part of s_anon and d_drop()
would simply hide it from shrink_dcache_for_umount(), leading to
all sorts of fun, including busy inodes on umount and oopsen after
that.
Bug had been there since at least 2006 (commit c636eb already has it),
so it's definitely -stable fodder.

For periodic endpoints, we must let the xHCI hardware know the maximum
payload an endpoint can transfer in one service interval. The xHCI
specification refers to this as the Maximum Endpoint Service Interval Time
Payload (Max ESIT Payload). This is used by the hardware for bandwidth
management and scheduling of packets.
For SuperSpeed endpoints, the maximum is calculated by multiplying the max
packet size by the number of bursts and the number of opportunities to
transfer within a service interval (the Mult field of the SuperSpeed
Endpoint companion descriptor). Devices advertise this in the
wBytesPerInterval field of their SuperSpeed Endpoint Companion Descriptor.
For high speed devices, this is taken by multiplying the max packet size by the
"number of additional transaction opportunities per microframe" (the high
bits of the wMaxPacketSize field in the endpoint descriptor).
For FS/LS devices, this is just the max packet size.
The other thing we must set in the endpoint context is the Average TRB
Length. This is supposed to be the average of the total bytes in the
transfer descriptor (TD), divided by the number of transfer request blocks
(TRBs) it takes to describe the TD. This gives the host controller an
indication of whether the driver will be enqueuing a scatter gather list
with many entries comprised of small buffers, or one contiguous buffer.
It also takes into account the number of extra TRBs you need for every TD.
This includes No-op TRBs and Link TRBs used to link ring segments
together. Some drivers may choose to chain an Event Data TRB on the end
of every TD, thus increasing the average number of TRBs per TD. The Linux
xHCI driver does not use Event Data TRBs.
In theory, if there was an API to allow drivers to state what their
bandwidth requirements are, we could set this field accurately. For now,
we set it to the same number as the Max ESIT payload.
The Average TRB Length should also be set for bulk and control endpoints,
but I have no idea how to guess what it should be.

A SuperSpeed interrupt or isochronous endpoint can define the number of
"burst transactions" it can handle in a service interval. This is
indicated by the "Mult" bits in the bmAttributes of the SuperSpeed
Endpoint Companion Descriptor. For example, if it has a max packet size
of 1024, a max burst of 11, and a mult of 3, the host may send 33
1024-byte packets in one service interval.
We must tell the xHCI host controller the number of multiple service
opportunities (mults) the device can handle when the endpoint is
installed. We do that by setting the Mult field of the Endpoint Context
before a configure endpoint command is sent down. The Mult field is
invalid for control or bulk SuperSpeed endpoints.

While looping over the interfaces, if usb_hcd_alloc_bandwidth() fails it calls
hcd->driver->reset_bandwidth(), so there was no need to reinstate the interface
again.
If no break occurred, the index equals config->desc.bNumInterfaces. A
subsequent usb_control_msg() failure resulted in a read from
config->interface[config->desc.bNumInterfaces] at label reset_old_alts.

This patch (as1363b) changes the way USB remote wakeup is handled
during system sleeps. It won't be enabled unless an interface driver
specifically needs it. Also, it won't be enabled during the FREEZE or
QUIESCE phases of hibernation, when the system doesn't respond to
wakeup events anyway.
This will fix problems people have reported with certain USB webcams
that generate wakeup requests when they shouldn't, and as a result
cause system suspends to fail. See
When detaching a port from the client side (usbip --detach 0),
the event thread, on the server side, is going to deadlock.
The "eh" server thread is getting USBIP_EH_RESET event and calls:
-> stub_device_reset() -> usb_reset_device()
the USB framework is then calling back _in the same "eh" thread_ :
-> stub_disconnect() -> usbip_stop_eh() -> wait_for_completion()
the "eh" thread is being asleep forever, waiting for its own completion.
This patch checks if "eh" is the current thread, in usbip_stop_eh().

The request_key() system call and request_key_and_link() should make a
link from an existing key to the destination keyring (if supplied), not
just from a new key to the destination keyring.
This can be tested by:
ring=`keyctl newring fred @s`
keyctl request2 user debug:a a
keyctl request user debug:a $ring
keyctl list $ring
If it says:
keyring is empty
then it didn't work. If it shows something like:
1 key in keyring: 1070462727: --alswrv 0 0 user: debug:a
then it did.
request_key() system call is meant to recursively search all your keyrings for
the key you desire, and, optionally, if it doesn't exist, call out to userspace
to create one for you.
If request_key() finds or creates a key, it should, optionally, create a link
to that key from the destination keyring specified.
Therefore, if, after a successful call to request_key() with a desination
keyring specified, you see the destination keyring empty, the code didn't work
correctly.
If you see the found key in the keyring, then it did - which is what the patch
is required for.

When read_buf is called to move over to the next page in the pagelist
of an NFSv4 request, it sets argp->end to essentially a random
number, certainly not an address within the page which argp->p now
points to. So subsequent calls to READ_BUF will think there is much
more than a page of spare space (the cast to u32 ensures an unsigned
comparison) so we can expect to fall off the end of the second
page.
We never encountered thsi in testing because typically the only
operations which use more than two pages are write-like operations,
which have their own decoding logic. Something like a getattr after a
write may cross a page boundary, but it would be very unusual for it to
cross another boundary after that.

Commit 48b32a3553a54740d236b79a90f20147a25875e3 ("reiserfs: use generic
xattr handlers") introduced a problem that causes corruption when extended
attributes are replaced with a smaller value.
The issue is that the reiserfs_setattr to shrink the xattr file was moved
from before the write to after the write.
The root issue has always been in the reiserfs xattr code, but was papered
over by the fact that in the shrink case, the file would just be expanded
again while the xattr was written.
The end result is that the last 8 bytes of xattr data are lost.
Commit 677c9b2e393a0cd203bd54e9c18b012b2c73305a ("reiserfs: remove
privroot hiding in lookup") removed the magic from the lookup code to hide
the .reiserfs_priv directory since it was getting loaded at mount-time
instead. The intent was that the entry would be hidden from the user via
a poisoned d_compare, but this was faulty.
This introduced a security issue where unprivileged users could access and
modify extended attributes or ACLs belonging to other users, including
root.
This patch resolves the issue by properly hiding .reiserfs_priv. This was
the intent of the xattr poisoning code, but it appears to have never
worked as expected. This is fixed by using d_revalidate instead of
d_compare.
This patch makes -oexpose_privroot a no-op. I'm fine leaving it this way.
The effort involved in working out the corner cases wrt permissions and
caching outweigh the benefit of the feature.

If a futex key happens to be located within a huge page mapped
MAP_PRIVATE, get_futex_key() can go into an infinite loop waiting for a
page->mapping that will never exist.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=552257 for more details
about the problem.
This patch makes page->mapping a poisoned value that includes
PAGE_MAPPING_ANON mapped MAP_PRIVATE. This is enough for futex to
continue but because of PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, the poisoned value is not
dereferenced or used by futex. No other part of the VM should be
dereferencing the page->mapping of a hugetlbfs page as its page cache is
not on the LRU.

Fix regression caused by commit 507e2fbaaacb6f164b4125b87c5002f95143174b
("w1: w1 temp calculation overflow fix") whereby negative temperatures for
the DS18B20 are not converted properly.
When the temperature exceeds 32767 milli-degrees the temperature overflows
to -32768 millidegrees. These are both well within the -55 - +125 degree
range for the sensor.
Current code is definitely crap: Largest pitch allowed spills into
the TILING_Y bit of the fence registers ... :(
I've rewritten the limits check under the assumption that 3rd gen hw
has a 3d pitch limit of 8kb (like 2nd gen). This is supported by an
otherwise totally misleading XXX comment.
This bug mostly resulted in tiling-corrupted pixmaps because the kernel
allowed too wide buffers to be tiled. Bug brought to the light by the
xf86-video-intel 2.11 release because that unconditionally enabled
tiling for pixmaps, relying on the kernel to check things. Tiling for
the framebuffer was not affected because the ddx does some additional
checks there ensure the buffer is within hw-limits.
v2: Instead of computing the value that would be written into the
hw fence registers and then checking the limits simply check whether
the stride is above the 8kb limit. To better document the hw, add
some WARN_ONs in i915_write_fence_reg like I've done for the i830
case (using the right limits).
