aio: io_getevents() should return if io_destroy() is invoked

commit e92adcba261fd391591bb63c1703185a04a41554 upstream

This patch wakes up a thread waiting in io_getevents if another thread
destroys the context.  This was tested using a small program that spawns a
thread to wait in io_getevents while the parent thread destroys the io context
and then waits for the getevents thread to exit.  Without this patch, the
program hangs indefinitely.  With the patch, the program exits as expected.

this one:

Actually sometimes I got oops on list_del, sometimes oops on list_add.
And I can change my test program a bit to trigger other oops.

The patch has been tested both on x86_32 and x86_64.

[ Upstream commit: c5d18e984a313adf5a1a4ae69e0b1d93cf410229 ]

As it stands it's impossible to use any authentication algorithms
with an ID above 31 portably.  It just happens to work on x86 but
fails miserably on ppc64.

The reason is that we're using a bit mask to check the algorithm
ID but the mask is only 32 bits wide.

After looking at how this is used in the field, I have concluded
that in the long term we should phase out state matching by IDs
because this is made superfluous by the reqid feature.  For current
applications, the best solution IMHO is to allow all algorithms when
the bit masks are all ~0.

The following patch does exactly that.

This bug was identified by IBM when testing on the ppc64 platform
using the NULL authentication algorithm which has an ID of 251.

tcp: tcp_probe buffer overflow and incorrect return value

[ Upstream commit: 8d390efd903485923419584275fd0c2aa4c94183 ]

tcp_probe has a bounds-checking bug that causes many programs (less,
python) to crash reading /proc/net/tcp_probe. When it outputs a log
line to the reader, it only checks if that line alone will fit in the
reader's buffer, rather than that line and all the previous lines it
has already written.

tcpprobe_read also returns the wrong value if copy_to_user fails--it
just passes on the return value of copy_to_user (number of bytes not
copied), which makes a failure look like a success.

This patch fixes the buffer overflow and sets the return value to
-EFAULT if copy_to_user fails.

Patch is against latest net-2.6; tested briefly and seems to fix the
crashes in less and python.

tg3: 5701 DMA corruption fix

[ Upstream commit: 41588ba1ae166eaba0a70abf2d7ff064ad9331d3 ]

Herbert Xu's commit fb93134dfc2a6e6fbedc7c270a31da03fce88db9, entitled
"[TCP]: Fix size calculation in sk_stream_alloc_pskb", has triggered a
bug in the 5701 where the 5701 DMA engine will corrupt outgoing
packets.  This problem only happens when the starting address of the
packet matches a certain range of offsets and only when the 5701 is
placed downstream of a particular Intel bridge.

This patch detects the problematic bridge and if present, readjusts the
starting address of the packet data to a dword aligned boundary.

JFFS2: Fix free space leak with in-band cleanmarkers

We were accounting for the cleanmarker by calling jffs2_link_node_ref()
(without locking!), which adjusted both superblock and per-eraseblock
accounting, subtracting the size of the cleanmarker from {jeb,c}->free_size
and adding it to {jeb,c}->used_size.

But only _then_ were we adding the size of the newly-erased block back
to the superblock counts, and we were adding each of jeb->{free,used}_size
to the corresponding superblock counts. Thus, the size of the cleanmarker
was effectively subtracted from the superblock's free_size _twice_.

Fix this, by always adding a full eraseblock size to c->free_size when
we've erased a block. And call jffs2_link_node_ref() under the proper
lock, while we're at it.

Thanks to Alexander Yurchenko and/or Damir Shayhutdinov for (almost)
pinpointing the problem.

16 years agovfs: fix possible deadlock in ext2, ext3, ext4 when using xattrs

vfs: fix possible deadlock in ext2, ext3, ext4 when using xattrs

mb_cache_entry_alloc() was allocating cache entries with GFP_KERNEL.  But
filesystems are calling this function while holding xattr_sem so possible
recursion into the fs violates locking ordering of xattr_sem and transaction

16 years agomm: sparsemem memory_present() fix
Ingo Molnar [Tue, 15 Apr 2008 23:40:00 +0000 (01:40 +0200)]
mm: sparsemem memory_present() fix

Fix memory corruption and crash on 32-bit x86 systems.

If a !PAE x86 kernel is booted on a 32-bit system with more than 4GB of
RAM, then we call memory_present() with a start/end that goes outside
the scope of MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS.

That causes this loop to happily walk over the limit of the sparse
memory section map:

    for (pfn = start; pfn < end; pfn += PAGES_PER_SECTION) {
                unsigned long section = pfn_to_section_nr(pfn);
                struct mem_section *ms;

                sparse_index_init(section, nid);
                set_section_nid(section, nid);

                ms = __nr_to_section(section);
                if (!ms->section_mem_map)
                        ms->section_mem_map = sparse_encode_early_nid(nid) |
                                SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT;

'ms' will be out of bounds and we'll corrupt a small amount of memory by
encoding the node ID and writing SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT (==0x1) over it.

The corruption might happen when encoding a non-zero node ID, or due to
the SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT which is 0x1:

mmzone.h:#define SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT (1UL<<0)

The fix is to sanity check anything the architecture passes to
sparsemem.

This bug seems to be rather old (as old as sparsemem support itself),
but the exact incarnation depended on random details like configs, which
made this bug more prominent in v2.6.25-to-be.

An additional enhancement might be to print a warning about ignored or
trimmed memory ranges.

dynamic reconfiguration using configfs), the netconsole is always
registered, regardless of whether the user actually specified a

However because netconsole has CON_PRINTBUFFER set, when it is

When there is no netconsole configured this is a) pointless, and b)

So instead we should only set CON_PRINTBUFFER if there is a netconsole

pruned . This can lead to tcp deadlock state if the next two
conditions are held:

1. There are a sequence hole between last received in
   order segment and segments enqueued to the out-of-order queue.

2. Size of all segments in the out-of-order queue is more than tcp_mem[2].

JFFS2 Fix of panics caused by wrong condition for hole frag creation in write_begin

This fixes a regression introduced in commit
205c109a7a96d9a3d8ffe64c4068b70811fef5e8 when switching to
write_begin/write_end operations in JFFS2.

The page offset is miscalculated, leading to corruption of the fragment
lists and subsequently to memory corruption and panics.

[ Side note: the bug is a fairly direct result of the naming.  Nick was
  likely misled by the use of "offs", since we tend to use the notion of
  "offset" not as an absolute position, but as an offset _within_ a page
  or allocation.

  Alternatively, a "pgoff_t" is a page index, but not a byte offset -
  our VM naming can be a bit confusing.

  So in this case, a VM person would likely have called this a "pos",
  not an "offs", or perhaps talked about byte offsets rather than page
  offsets (since it's counted in bytes, not pages).    - Linus ]

[NET_SCHED] sch_api: fix qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() loop

TC_H_MAJ(parentid) for root classes is the same as for ingress, and if
ingress qdisc is created qdisc_lookup() returns its pointer (without
ingress NULL is returned). After this all qdisc_lookups give the same,
and we get endless loop. (I don't know how this could hide for so long
- it should trigger with every leaf class deleted if it's qdisc isn't
empty.)

After this fix qdisc_lookup() is omitted both for ingress and root
parents, but looking for root is only wasting a little time here...
Many thanks to Enrico Demarin for finding a test for catching this

16 years agolocks: fix possible infinite loop in fcntl(F_SETLKW) over nfs
J. Bruce Fields [Mon, 14 Apr 2008 19:03:02 +0000 (15:03 -0400)]
locks: fix possible infinite loop in fcntl(F_SETLKW) over nfs

Miklos Szeredi found the bug:

"Basically what happens is that on the server nlm_fopen() calls
nfsd_open() which returns -EACCES, to which nlm_fopen() returns
NLM_LCK_DENIED.

"On the client this will turn into a -EAGAIN (nlm_stat_to_errno()),
which in will cause fcntl_setlk() to retry forever."

So, for example, opening a file on an nfs filesystem, changing
permissions to forbid further access, then trying to lock the file,
could result in an infinite loop.

And Trond Myklebust identified the culprit, from Marc Eshel and I:

7723ec9777d9832849b76475b1a21a2872a40d20 "locks: factor out
generic/filesystem switch from setlock code"

That commit claimed to just be reshuffling code, but actually introduced
a behavioral change by calling the lock method repeatedly as long as it
returned -EAGAIN.

We assumed this would be safe, since we assumed a lock of type SETLKW
would only return with either success or an error other than -EAGAIN.
However, nfs does can in fact return -EAGAIN in this situation, and
independently of whether that behavior is correct or not, we don't
actually need this change, and it seems far safer not to depend on such
assumptions about the filesystem's ->lock method.

Therefore, revert the problematic part of the original commit.  This
leaves vfs_lock_file() and its other callers unchanged, while returning
fcntl_setlk and fcntl_setlk64 to their former behavior.

The bridge netfilter code attaches a fake dst_entry with a pointer to a

leads to crashes when the skb is passed to __ip_route_output_key when

Since bridging can currently only operate in the init_net namespace,

Consider we are putting a clusterip_config entry with the "entries"

in progress:

CPU1: CPU2:

write_lock_bh(&clusterip_lock);
list_del(&c->list);
write_unlock_bh(&clusterip_lock);

Oops! We have an entry returned by the clusterip_config_find_get,
which is a) not in list b) has a stale dev pointer.

The problems will happen when the CPU2 will release the entry - it
will remove it from the list for the 2nd time, thus spoiling it, and
will put a stale dev pointer.

The fix is to make atomic_dec_and_test under the clusterip_lock.
