hrtimer: prevent overrun DoS in hrtimer_forward()
hrtimer_forward() does not check for the possible overflow of
timer->expires. This can happen on 64 bit machines with large interval
values and results currently in an endless loop in the softirq because the
expiry value becomes negative and therefor the timer is expired all the

Check for this condition and set the expiry value to the max. expiry time
in the future. The fix should be applied to stable kernel series as well.

fix for bugzilla #7544 (keyspan USB-to-serial converter)
At least the Keyspan USA-19HS USB-to-serial converter supports
two different configurations, one where the input endpoints
have interrupt transfer type and one where they are bulk endpoints.
The default UHCI configuration uses the interrupt input endpoints.
The keyspan driver, OTOH, assumes that the device has only bulk
endpoints (all URBs are initialized by calling usb_fill_bulk_urb
in keyspan.c/ keyspan_setup_urb). This causes the interval field
of the input URBs to have a value of zero instead of one, which
'accidentally' worked with Linux at least up to 2.6.17.11 but
stopped to with 2.6.18, which changed the UHCI support code handling
URBs for interrupt endpoints. The patch below modifies to driver to
initialize its input URBs either as interrupt or as bulk URBs,
depending on the transfertype contained in the associated endpoint
descriptor (only tested with the default configuration) enabling
the driver to again receive data from the serial converter.

the packet makes it all the way through the stack or a different
packet is handled.
- taking references to an unconfirmed entry and using it outside the
locked section doesn't work, the list entries are not refcounted and
another CPU might already be waiting to destroy the entry
What the code really wants to do is make sure the references of the hash
table to the selected conntrack entries are released, so they will be
destroyed once all references from skbs and the event cache are dropped.

That causes a reference counter leak, then later leads to the double free that
we have seen.
Inside unlock_buffer(), there is a memory barrier is placed *after* the lock
bit is being cleared, however, there is no memory barrier *before* the bit is
cleared. On some arch the h_refcount update instruction and the clear bit
instruction could be reordered, thus leave the critical section re-entered.
The race is like this: For example, if the h_refcount is initialized as 1,
kernel/time/clocksource.c needs struct task_struct on m68k
kernel/time/clocksource.c needs struct task_struct on m68k.
Because it uses spin_unlock_irq(), which, on m68k, uses hardirq_count(), which

have to include sched.h. Because it would cause a loop inclusion, we

The commit was buggy in multiple ways:
- the conversion to ilog2() was incorrect to begin with
- it tested the wrong #defines, so on all architectures but FRV you'd
never see the bug except for constant arguments.
- the new "get_order()" macro used its arguments multiple times, and
didn't even parenthesize them properly
- despite the comments, it was not true that you could use it for
constant initializers, since not all architectures even use the
generic page.h header file.
All of the problems are individually fixable, but it all boils down to:
better just revert it, and re-do it from scratch.

tty_io: fix race in master pty close/slave pty close path
This patch fixes a possible race that leads to double freeing an idr index.
When the master begin to close, release_dev() is called and then
pty_close() is called:
if (tty->driver->close)
tty->driver->close(tty, filp);
This is done without helding any locks other than BKL. Inside pty_close(),
being a master close, the devpts entry will be removed:
#ifdef CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS
if (tty->driver == ptm_driver)
devpts_pty_kill(tty->index);
#endif
But devpts_pty_kill() will call get_node() that may sleep while waiting for
&devpts_root->d_inode->i_sem. When this happens and the slave is being
opened, tty_open() just found the driver and index:
This part of the code is already protected under tty_mute. The problem is
that the slave close already got an index. Then init_dev() is called and
blocks waiting for the same &devpts_root->d_inode->i_sem.
When the master close resumes, it removes the devpts entry, and the
relation between idr index and the tty is gone. The master then sleeps
waiting for the tty_mutex on release_dev().
Slave open resumes and found no tty for that index. As result, a NULL tty
is returned and init_dev() doesn't flow to fast_track:
/* check whether we're reopening an existing tty */
if (driver->flags & TTY_DRIVER_DEVPTS_MEM) {
tty = devpts_get_tty(idx);
if (tty && driver->subtype == PTY_TYPE_MASTER)
tty = tty->link;
} else {
tty = driver->ttys[idx];
}
if (tty) goto fast_track;
The result of this, is that a new tty will be created and init_dev() returns
sucessfull. After returning, tty_mutex is dropped and master close may resume.
Master close finds it's the only use and both sides are closing, then releases
the tty and the index. At this point, the idr index is free, but slave still
has it.
Slave open then calls pty_open() and finds that tty->link->count is 0,
because there's no master and returns error. Then tty_open() calls
release_dev() which executes without any warning, as it was a case of last
slave close when the master is already closed (master->count == 0,
slave->count == 1). The tty is then released with the already released idr
index.
This normally would only issue a warning on idr_remove() but in case of a
customer's critical application, it's never too simple:
thread1: opens master, gets index X
thread1: begin closing master
thread2: begin opening slave with index X
thread1: finishes closing master, index X released
thread3: opens master, gets index X, just released
thread2: fails opening slave, releases index X <----
thread4: opens master, gets index X, init_dev() then find an already in use
and healthy tty and fails
If no more indexes are released, ptmx_open() will keep failing, as the
first free index available is X, and it will make init_dev() fail because
you're trying to "reopen a master" which isn't valid.
The patch notices when this race happens and make init_dev() fail
imediately. The init_dev() function is called with tty_mutex held, so it's
safe to continue with tty till the end of function because release_dev()
won't make any further changes without grabbing the tty_mutex.
Without the patch, on some machines it's possible get easily idr warnings

POWERPC: Fix performance monitor exception
To the issue: some point during 2.6.20 development, Paul Mackerras
introduced the "lazy IRQ disabling" patch (very cool work, BTW).
In that patch, the performance monitor unit exception was marked as
"maskable", in the sense that if interrupts were soft-disabled, that
exception could be ignored. This broke my PowerPC profiling code.
The symptom that I see is that a varying number of interrupts
(from 0 to $n$, typically closer to 0) get delivered, when, in
reality, it should always be very close to $n$.
The issue stems from the way masking is being done. Masking in
this fashion seems to work well with the decrementer and external
interrupts, because they are raised again until "really" handled.
For the PMU, however, this does not apply (at least on my Xserver
machine with a 970FX processor). If the PMU exception is not handled,
it will _not_ be re-raised (at least on my machine). The documentation
states that the PMXE bit in MMCR0 is set to 0 when the PMU exception
is raised. However, software must re-set the bit to re-enable PMU
exceptions. If the exception is ignored (as currently) not only is
that interrupt lost, but because software does not re-set PMXE, the
PMU registers are "frozen" forever.
[This patch means that performance monitor exceptions are taken and
handled even if irqs are off, as long as some other interrupt hasn't
come along and caused interrupts to be hard-disabled. In this sense
the PMU exception becomes like an NMI. The oprofile code for most
powerpc processors does nothing that is unsafe in an NMI context, but
the Cell oprofile code does a spin_lock_irqsave. However, that turns
out to be OK because Cell doesn't actually use the performance
monitor exception; performance monitor interrupts come in as a
regular interrupt on Cell, so will be disabled when irqs are off.
-- paulus.]
This restores the previous behaviour for these devices by ensuring that when
the voltage is changed, only one write to set the voltage is performed.
It may be that both writes are needed if the voltage is being changed between
two non-zero values or that it's safe to ensure that only one write is done
if the hardware only supports one voltage; I don't know whether either is the
case nor can I test since I have only the one SD reader (1524:0550), and it
supports just the one voltage.

UML - Fix 2.6.20 hang
A previous cleanup misused need_poll, which had a fairly broken
interface. It implemented a growable array, changing the used
elements count itself, but leaving it up to the caller to fill in the
actual elements, including the entire array if the array had to be
reallocated. This worked because the previous users were switching
between two such structures, and the elements were copied from the
inactive array to the active array after making sure the active array
had enough room.
maybe_sigio_broken was made to use need_poll, but it was operating on
a single array, so when the buffer was reallocated, the previous
contents were lost.
This patch makes need_poll implement more sane semantics. It merely
assures that the array is of the proper size and that the contents are
preserved. It is up to the caller to adjust the used elements count
and to ensure that the proper elements are resent.
This manifested itself as a hang in 2.6.20 as the uninitialized buffer
convinced UML that one of its own file descriptors didn't support
SIGIO and needed to be watched by poll in a separate thread. The
result was an interrupt flood as control traffic over this descriptor
sparked interrupts, which resulted in more control traffic, ad nauseum.

fix umask when noACL kernel meets extN tuned for ACLs
Fix insecure default behaviour reported by Tigran Aivazian: if an ext2

a kernel built without ACL support, then umask was ignored when creating
inodes - though root or user has umask 022, touch creates files as 0666,
and mkdir creates directories as 0777.
This appears to have worked right until 2.6.11, when a fix to the default
mode on symlinks (always 0777) assumed VFS applies umask: which it does,
unless the mount is marked for ACLs; but ext[234] set MS_POSIXACL in
s_flags according to s_mount_opt set according to def_mount_opts.
We could revert to the 2.6.10 ext[234]_init_acl (adding an S_ISLNK test);
but other filesystems only set MS_POSIXACL when ACLs are configured. We
could fix this at another level; but it seems most robust to avoid setting
the s_mount_opt flag in the first place (at the expense of more ifdefs).
