It occurs because an skb with a fraglist was freed from the tcp
retransmit queue when it was acked, but a page on that fraglist had
PG_Slab set (indicating it was allocated from the Slab allocator (which
means the free path above can't safely free it via put_page.
We tracked this back to an nfsv4 setacl operation, in which the nfs code
attempted to fill convert the passed in buffer to an array of pages in
__nfs4_proc_set_acl, which gets used by the skb->frags list in
xs_sendpages. __nfs4_proc_set_acl just converts each page in the buffer
to a page struct via virt_to_page, but the vfs allocates the buffer via
kmalloc, meaning the PG_slab bit is set. We can't create a buffer with
kmalloc and free it later in the tcp ack path with put_page, so we need
to either:
1) ensure that when we create the list of pages, no page struct has
PG_Slab set
or
2) not use a page list to send this data
Given that these buffers can be multiple pages and arbitrarily sized, I
think (1) is the right way to go. I've written the below patch to
allocate a page from the buddy allocator directly and copy the data over
to it. This ensures that we have a put_page free-able page for every
entry that winds up on an skb frag list, so it can be safely freed when
the frame is acked. We do a put page on each entry after the
rpc_call_sync call so as to drop our own reference count to the page,
leaving only the ref count taken by tcp_sendpages. This way the data
will be properly freed when the ack comes in
Successfully tested by myself to solve the above oops.
Note, as this is the result of a setacl operation that exceeded a page
of data, I think this amounts to a local DOS triggerable by an
uprivlidged user, so I'm CCing security on this as well.

DNS: Fix a NULL pointer deref when trying to read an error key [CVE-2011-1076]
When a DNS resolver key is instantiated with an error indication, attempts to
read that key will result in an oops because user_read() is expecting there to
be a payload - and there isn't one [CVE-2011-1076].
Give the DNS resolver key its own read handler that returns the error cached in
key->type_data.x[0] as an error rather than crashing.
Also make the kenter() at the beginning of dns_resolver_instantiate() limit the
amount of data it prints, since the data is not necessarily NUL-terminated.

commit 4a2d789267e00b5a1175ecd2ddefcc78b83fbf09

Date: Wed Aug 11 09:37:58 2010 +0100
Subject: DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2]
This can trivially be reproduced by any user with the following program
compiled with -lkeyutils:
What should happen is that keyctl_read() reports error 6 (ENXIO) to the user:
dns-break: read_key: No such device or address
but instead the kernel oopses.
This cannot be reproduced with the 'keyutils add' or 'keyutils padd' commands
as both of those cut the data down below the NUL termination that must be
included in the data. Without this dns_resolver_instantiate() will return
-EINVAL and the key will not be instantiated such that it can be read.

LSM: Pass -o remount options to the LSM
The VFS mount code passes the mount options to the LSM. The LSM will remove
options it understands from the data and the VFS will then pass the remaining
options onto the underlying filesystem. This is how options like the
SELinux context= work. The problem comes in that -o remount never calls
into LSM code. So if you include an LSM specific option it will get passed
to the filesystem and will cause the remount to fail. An example of where
this is a problem is the 'seclabel' option. The SELinux LSM hook will
print this word in /proc/mounts if the filesystem is being labeled using
xattrs. If you pass this word on mount it will be silently stripped and
ignored. But if you pass this word on remount the LSM never gets called
and it will be passed to the FS. The FS doesn't know what seclabel means
and thus should fail the mount. For example an ext3 fs mounted over loop
# mount -o loop /tmp/fs /mnt/tmp
# cat /proc/mounts | grep /mnt/tmp
/dev/loop0 /mnt/tmp ext3 rw,seclabel,relatime,errors=continue,barrier=0,data=ordered 0 0
# mount -o remount /mnt/tmp

from it, so most of other flags(e.g, REQ_SYNC) are missing.
For example, with a sync write we get:
write_test-2409 [001] 160.013869: block_rq_insert: 3,64 W 0 () 258135 + =
8 [write_test]
Since now we have integrated the flags of both bio and request,
it is safe to pass rq->cmd_flags directly to blk_fill_rwbs and
blk_fill_rwbs_rq isn't needed any more.
With this patch, after a sync write we get:
write_test-2417 [000] 226.603878: block_rq_insert: 3,64 WS 0 () 258135 +=
8 [write_test]

ALSA: hda - Don't set to D3 in Cirrus errata init verbs
The errata init verbs for CS42xx codecs contain the verbs to set
the power-state of SPDIF nodes to D3, which seem to break the SPDIF
output on some MacBooks. Since this is executed during the power-up
initialization, we shouldn't turn them down there.

fix reiserfs mkdir() breakage
if directory has so many subdirectories that its link count is set
to 1 (i.e. "can't tell accurately") and reiserfs_new_inode() fails,
we shouldn't decrement the parent's link count in cleanup path;
that's what DEC_DIR_INODE_NLINK() is for. As it is, we end up
with parent suddenly getting zero i_nlink, with very unpleasant
effects.
However the code in rxrpc_instantiate strips it away:
data += sizeof(kver);
datalen -= sizeof(kver);
Removing kif_version fixes my problem.

We service 2 queues (kcq1 and kcq2) in cnic_service_bnx2x_bh(). If

to acknowledge the interrupt, and without looping back to check kcq1,
we may miss events on kcq1.

TOMOYO: Fix memory leak upon file open.
In tomoyo_check_open_permission() since 2.6.36, TOMOYO was by error
recalculating already calculated pathname when checking allow_rewrite
permission. As a result, memory will leak whenever a file is opened for writing
without O_APPEND flag. Also, performance will degrade because TOMOYO is
calculating pathname regardless of profile configuration.
This patch fixes the leak and performance degrade.

of/promtree: allow DT device matching by fixing 'name' brokenness (v5)
Commit e2f2a93b, "of/promtree: add package-to-path support to pdt"
changed dp->name from using the 'name' property to using
package-to-path. This fixed /proc/device-tree creation by eliminating
conflicts between names (the 'name' property provides names like
'battery', whereas package-to-path provides names like
'/foo/bar/battery@0', which we stripped to 'battery@0'). However, it
also breaks of_device_id table matching.
The fix that we _really_ wanted was to keep dp->name based upon
the name property ('battery'), but based dp->full_name upon
package-to-path ('battery@0'). This patch does just that.
This changes all users (except SPARC) of promtree to use the full
result from package-to-path for full_name, rather than stripping the
directory out. In practice, the strings end up being exactly the
same; this change saves time, code, and memory.
SPARC continues to use the existing build_path_component() code.
v2: combine two patches and revert of_pdt_node_name to original version
v3: use dp->phandle instead of passing around node
v4: warn/bail out for non-sparc archs if pkg2path is not set
v5: split of_pdt_build_full_name into sparc & non-sparc versions
v6: Pass NULL to pkg2path before buf gets assigned.
Drop check for pkg2path hook on each and every node.
v7: Don't BUG() when unable to get the full_path; create a
known-unique name instead.
