IB/mthca: Fix data corruption after FMR unmap on Sinai
In mthca_arbel_fmr_unmap(), the high bits of the key are masked off.
This gets rid of the effect of adjust_key(), which makes sure that
bits 3 and 23 of the key are equal when the Sinai throughput
optimization is enabled, and so it may happen that an FMR will end up
with bits 3 and 23 in the key being different. This causes data
corruption, because when enabling the throughput optimization, the
driver promises the HCA firmware that bits 3 and 23 of all memory keys
will always be equal.
Fix by re-applying adjust_key() after masking the key.
Thanks to Or Gerlitz for reproducing the problem, and Ariel Shahar for
help in debug.

APPLETALK: Fix a remotely triggerable crash
When we receive an AppleTalk frame shorter than what its header says,
we still attempt to verify its checksum, and trip on the BUG_ON() at
the end of function atalk_sum_skb() because of the length mismatch.
This has security implications because this can be triggered by simply
sending a specially crafted ethernet frame to a target victim,
effectively crashing that host. Thus this qualifies, I think, as a
remote DoS. Here is the frame I used to trigger the crash, in npg
format:
<Appletalk Killer>
{
# Ethernet header -----
XX XX XX XX XX XX # Destination MAC
00 00 00 00 00 00 # Source MAC
00 1D # Length
The destination MAC address must be set to those of the victim.
The severity is mitigated by two requirements:
* The target host must have the appletalk kernel module loaded. I
suspect this isn't so frequent.
* AppleTalk frames are non-IP, thus I guess they can only travel on
local networks. I am no network expert though, maybe it is possible
to somehow encapsulate AppleTalk packets over IP.
The bug has been reported back in June 2004:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2979
But it wasn't investigated, and was closed in July 2006 as both
reporters had vanished meanwhile.
This code was new in kernel 2.6.0-test5:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=7ab442d7e0a76402c12553ee256f756097cae2d2
And not modified since then, so we can assume that vanilla kernels
2.6.0-test5 and later, and distribution kernels based thereon, are
affected.
Note that I still do not know for sure what triggered the bug in the
real-world cases. The frame could have been corrupted by the kernel if
we have a bug hiding somewhere. But more likely, we are receiving the
faulty frame from the network.

This is serious, as any tools using this ioctl would have their
commands applied to the wrong sectors on the drive, possibly resulting
in disk corruption.
Ideally, newer apps should use SG_IO/ATA_16 directly,
avoiding this bug. But with libata poised to displace drivers/ide,
better compatibility here is a must.
This patch fixes libata to use the upper four LBA bits passed
in from the ioctl.
The original drivers/ide implementation copies over all bits
except for the master/slave select bit. With this patch,
libata will copy only the four high-order LBA bits,
just in case there are assumptions elsewhere in libata (?).

"ide: fix drive side 80c cable check, take 2" patch from Tejun Heo (commit fab59375b9543f84d1714f7dd00f5d11e531bd3e) fixed 80c bit test (bit13 of word93)
but we also need to fix master/slave IDENTIFY order (slave device should be
probed first in order to make it release PDIAG- signal) and we should also
check for pre-ATA3 slave devices (which may not release PDIAG- signal).
Unfortunately the fact that IDE driver doesn't reset devices itself helps
only a bit as it seems that some BIOS-es reset ATA devices after programming
the chipset, some BIOS-es can be set to not probe/configure selected devices,
there may be no BIOS in case of add-on cards etc.
Since we are quite late in the release cycle and the required changes will
affect a lot of systems just revert the fix for now.

i2o: block IO errors on i2o disk
I2O subsystem has been broken in mainstream several months ago (after

cmd_flags.
In i2o layer this patch has replaced flag REQ_SPECIAL by the according
cmd_type. However i2o has used REQ_SPECIAL not as command type but as
driver-specific flag for the debug purposes. As result all i2o requests
have type "special" now, are not processed to the hardware and fail with

IPV6: Fix ipv6 round-robin locking.
[IPV6]: Fix routing round-robin locking.
As per RFC2461, section 6.3.6, item #2, when no routers on the
matching list are known to be reachable or probably reachable we
do round robin on those available routes so that we make sure
to probe as many of them as possible to detect when one becomes
reachable faster.
Each routing table has a rwlock protecting the tree and the linked
list of routes at each leaf. The round robin code executes during
lookup and thus with the rwlock taken as a reader. A small local
spinlock tries to provide protection but this does not work at all
for two reasons:
1) The round-robin list manipulation, as coded, goes like this (with
read lock held):
walk routes finding head and tail
spin_lock();
rotate list using head and tail
spin_unlock();
While one thread is rotating the list, another thread can
end up with stale values of head and tail and then proceed
to corrupt the list when it gets the lock. This ends up causing
the OOPS in fib6_add() later onthat many people have been hitting.
2) All the other code paths that run with the rwlock held as
a reader do not expect the list to change on them, they
expect it to remain completely fixed while they hold the
lock in that way.
So, simply stated, it is impossible to implement this correctly using
a manipulation of the list without violating the rwlock locking
semantics.
Reimplement using a per-fib6_node round-robin pointer. This way we
don't need to manipulate the list at all, and since the round-robin
pointer can only ever point to real existing entries we don't need
to perform any locking on the changing of the round-robin pointer
itself. We only need to reset the round-robin pointer to NULL when
the entry it is pointing to is removed.
The idea is from Thomas Graf and it is very similar to how this
was implemented before the advanced router selection code when in.

Write does not trigger this bug because the driver refuses in fixed block
mode writes that are not a multiple of the block size. Read does trigger
it in my system.
The bug is not associated with any specific HBA. st tries to do direct i/o
in fixed block mode with reads that are not a multiple of tape block size.
The patch in this message fixes the st problem by switching to using the
driver buffer up to the next close of the device file in fixed block mode
if the user asks for a read like this.
I don't know why the bug has surfaced only after 2.6.17 although the st
problem is old. There may be another bug in the block subsystem and this
patch works around it. However, the patch fixes a problem in st and in
this way it is a valid fix.
This patch may also fix the bug 7900.

dio: invalidate clean pages before dio write
This patch fixes a user-triggerable oops that was reported by Leonid
Ananiev as archived at http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/2/8/337.
dio writes invalidate clean pages that intersect the written region so that
subsequent buffered reads go to disk to read the new data. If this fails
the interface tries to tell the caller that the cache is inconsistent by
returning EIO.
Before this patch we had the problem where this invalidation failure would
clobber -EIOCBQUEUED as it made its way from fs/direct-io.c to fs/aio.c.
Both fs/aio.c and bio completion call aio_complete() and we reference freed
memory, usually oopsing.
This patch addresses this problem by invalidating before the write so that
we can cleanly return -EIO before ->direct_IO() has had a chance to return
-EIOCBQUEUED.
There is a compromise here. During the dio write we can fault in mmap()ed
pages which intersect the written range with get_user_pages() if the user
provided them for the source buffer. This is a crazy thing to do, but we
can make it mostly work in most cases by trying the invalidation again.
The compromise is that we won't return an error if this second invalidation
fails if it's an AIO write and we have -EIOCBQUEUED.
This was tested by having two processes race performing large O_DIRECT and
buffered ordered writes. Within minutes ext3 would see a race between
ext3_releasepage() and jbd holding a reference on ordered data buffers and
would cause invalidation to fail, panicing the box. The test can be found
in the 'aio_dio_bugs' test group in test.kernel.org/autotest. After this
patch the test passes.

Fix GFP_KERNEL with preemption disabled in fib_trie
[IPV4]: Do not disable preemption in trie_leaf_remove().
Hello, Just discussed this Patrick...
We have two users of trie_leaf_remove, fn_trie_flush and fn_trie_delete
both are holding RTNL. So there shouldn't be need for this preempt stuff.
This is assumed to a leftover from an older RCU-take.
