When an invalid NID is given, get_wcaps() returns zero as the error,
but get_wcaps_type() takes it as the normal value and returns a bogus
AC_WID_AUD_OUT value. This confuses the parser.
With this patch, get_wcaps_type() returns -1 when value 0 is given,
i.e. an invalid NID is passed to get_wcaps().
Commit 503358ae01b70ce6909d19dd01287093f6b6271c ("ext4: avoid divide by
zero when trying to mount a corrupted file system") fixes CVE-2009-4307
by performing a sanity check on s_log_groups_per_flex, since it can be
set to a bogus value by an attacker.
This patch fixes two potential issues in the previous commit.
1) The sanity check might only work on architectures like PowerPC.
On x86, 5 bits are used for the shifting amount. That means, given a
large s_log_groups_per_flex value like 36, groups_per_flex = 1 << 36
is essentially 1 << 4 = 16, rather than 0. This will bypass the check,
leaving s_log_groups_per_flex and groups_per_flex inconsistent.
2) The sanity check relies on undefined behavior, i.e., oversized shift.
A standard-confirming C compiler could rewrite the check in unexpected
ways. Consider the following equivalent form, assuming groups_per_flex
is unsigned for simplicity.
We compile the code snippet using Clang 3.0 and GCC 4.6. Clang will
completely optimize away the check groups_per_flex == 0, leaving the
patched code as vulnerable as the original. GCC keeps the check, but
there is no guarantee that future versions will do the same.

The CPU hotplug notifications sent out by the _cpu_up() and _cpu_down()
functions depend on the value of the 'tasks_frozen' argument passed to them
(which indicates whether tasks have been frozen or not).
(Examples for such CPU hotplug notifications: CPU_ONLINE, CPU_ONLINE_FROZEN,
CPU_DEAD, CPU_DEAD_FROZEN).
Thus, it is essential that while the callbacks for those notifications are
running, the state of the system with respect to the tasks being frozen or
not remains unchanged, *throughout that duration*. Hence there is a need for
synchronizing the CPU hotplug code with the freezer subsystem.
Since the freezer is involved only in the Suspend/Hibernate call paths, this
patch hooks the CPU hotplug code to the suspend/hibernate notifiers
PM_[SUSPEND|HIBERNATE]_PREPARE and PM_POST_[SUSPEND|HIBERNATE] to prevent
the race between CPU hotplug and freezer, thus ensuring that CPU hotplug
notifications will always be run with the state of the system really being
what the notifications indicate, _throughout_ their execution time.

This patch fixes a crash in reiserfs_delete_xattrs during umount.
When shrink_dcache_for_umount clears the dcache from
generic_shutdown_super, delayed evictions are forced to disk. If an
evicted inode has extended attributes associated with it, it will
need to walk the xattr tree to locate and remove them.
But since shrink_dcache_for_umount will BUG if it encounters active
dentries, the xattr tree must be released before it's called or it will
crash during every umount.
This patch forces the evictions to occur before generic_shutdown_super
by calling shrink_dcache_sb first. The additional evictions caused
by the removal of each associated xattr file and dir will be automatically
handled as they're added to the LRU list.

When using a >8bpp framebuffer, offb advertises truecolor, not directcolor,
and doesn't touch the color map even if it has a corresponding access method

Thus it needs to set the pseudo-palette with all 3 components of the color,
like other truecolor framebuffers, not with copies of the color index like
a directcolor framebuffer would do.
This went unnoticed for a long time because it's pretty hard to get offb

The complete backtrace was unfortunately not captured, but details can be found
here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769920
The cause is fairly clear.
Its caused by the fact that firmware_loading_store has a case 0 in its
switch statement that reads and writes the fw_priv->fw poniter without the
protection of the fw_lock mutex. since there is a window between the time that
_request_firmware sets fw_priv->fw to NULL and the time the corresponding sysfs
file is unregistered, its possible for a user space application to race in, and
write a zero to the loading file, causing a NULL dereference in
firmware_loading_store. Fix it by extending the protection of the fw_lock mutex
to cover all of the firware_loading_store function.

cfq_cic_link() has race condition. When some processes which shared ioc
issue I/O to same block device simultaneously, cfq_cic_link() returns -EEXIST
sometimes. The race condition might stop I/O by following steps:
step 1: Process A: Issue an I/O to /dev/sda
step 2: Process A: Get an ioc (iocA here) in get_io_context() which does not
linked with a cic for the device
step 3: Process A: Get a new cic for the device (cicA here) in
cfq_alloc_io_context()
step 4: Process B: Issue an I/O to /dev/sda
step 5: Process B: Get iocA in get_io_context() since process A and B share the
same ioc
step 6: Process B: Get a new cic for the device (cicB here) in
cfq_alloc_io_context() since iocA has not been linked with a
cic for the device yet
step 7: Process A: Link cicA to iocA in cfq_cic_link()
step 8: Process A: Dispatch I/O to driver and finish it
step 9: Process B: Try to link cicB to iocA in cfq_cic_link()
But it fails with showing "cfq: cic link failed!" kernel
message, since iocA has already linked with cicA at step 7.
step 10: Process B: Wait for finishig I/O in get_request_wait()
The function does not wake up, when there is no I/O to the
device.
When cfq_cic_link() returns -EEXIST, it means ioc has already linked with cic.
So when cfq_cic_link() return -EEXIST, retry cfq_cic_lookup().

This is 100% reproducible with some autonuma development code tuned in
a very aggressive manner (not normal way even for knumad) which does
"exotic" changes to the ptes. It wouldn't normally trigger but I don't
see why it can't happen normally if the page is added to swap cache in
between the two faults leading to "copied" being zero (which then
hangs in ext4). So it should be fixed. Especially possible with lumpy
reclaim (albeit disabled if compaction is enabled) as that would
ignore the young bits in the ptes.

oprofile, x86: Fix crash when unloading module (timer mode)
Based on 97f7f81 oprofile, x86: Fix crash when unloading module (nmi timer
mode) upstream.
Fix for stable kernels v2.6.28.y to v2.6.34.y. This patch is for .32.
Oprofile crashs while unlaoding modules and if in timer mode. Timer
mode is the fallback if the architectural initialization fails. The
pointer variable model is then used uninitialzied during exit causing
a NULL pointer dereference.
It can be triggered with kernel parameters oprofile.timer=1 nolapic
used. Happens esp. in virtual machine environments.
Backport for stable kernel v2.6.32.y to v2.6.36.y.
Current oprofile's x86 callgraph support may trigger page faults
throwing the BUG_ON(in_nmi()) message below. This patch fixes this by
using the same nmi-safe copy-from-user code as in perf.

Clement Lecigne reports a filesystem which causes a kernel oops in
hfs_find_init() trying to dereference sb->ext_tree which is NULL.
This proves to be because the filesystem has a corrupted MDB extent
record, where the extents file does not fit into the first three extents
in the file record (the first blocks).
In hfs_get_block() when looking up the blocks for the extent file
(HFS_EXT_CNID), it fails the first blocks special case, and falls
through to the extent code (which ultimately calls hfs_find_init())
which is in the process of being initialised.
Hfs avoids this scenario by always having the extents b-tree fitting
into the first blocks (the extents B-tree can't have overflow extents).
The fix is to check at mount time that the B-tree fits into first
blocks, i.e. fail if HFS_I(inode)->alloc_blocks >=
HFS_I(inode)->first_blocks
Note, the existing commit 47f365eb57573 ("hfs: fix oops on mount with
corrupted btree extent records") becomes subsumed into this as a special
case, but only for the extents B-tree (HFS_EXT_CNID), it is perfectly
acceptable for the catalog B-Tree file to grow beyond three extents,
with the remaining extent descriptors in the extents overfow.

Ok, this isn't optimal, since it means that 'iotop' needs admin
capabilities, and we may have to work on this some more. But at the
same time it is very much not acceptable to let anybody just read
anybody elses IO statistics quite at this level.
Use of the GENL_ADMIN_PERM suggested by Johannes Berg as an alternative
to checking the capabilities by hand.
I hit a J_ASSERT(blocknr != 0) failure in cleanup_journal_tail() when
mounting a fsfuzzed ext3 image. It turns out that the corrupted ext3
image has s_first = 0 in journal superblock, and the 0 is passed to
journal->j_head in journal_reset(), then to blocknr in
cleanup_journal_tail(), in the end the J_ASSERT failed.
So validate s_first after reading journal superblock from disk in
journal_get_superblock() to ensure s_first is valid.
Exactly like roundup_pow_of_two(1), the rounddown version was buggy for
the case of a compile-time constant '1' argument. Probably because it
originated from the same code, sharing history with the roundup version
from before the bugfix (for that one, see commit 1a06a52ee1b0: "Fix
roundup_pow_of_two(1)").
However, unlike the roundup version, the fix for rounddown is to just
remove the broken special case entirely. It's simply not needed - the
generic code
1UL << ilog2(n)
does the right thing for the constant '1' argment too. The only reason
roundup needed that special case was because rounding up does so by
subtracting one from the argument (and then adding one to the result)
causing the obvious problems with "ilog2(0)".
But rounddown doesn't do any of that, since ilog2() naturally truncates
(ie "rounds down") to the right rounded down value. And without the
ilog2(0) case, there's no reason for the special case that had the wrong
value.
tl;dr: rounddown_pow_of_two(1) should be 1, not 0.
Percpu allocator recorded the cpus which map to the first and last
units in pcpu_first/last_unit_cpu respectively and used them to
determine the address range of a chunk - e.g. it assumed that the
first unit has the lowest address in a chunk while the last unit has
the highest address.
This simply isn't true. Groups in a chunk can have arbitrary positive
or negative offsets from the previous one and there is no guarantee
that the first unit occupies the lowest offset while the last one the
highest.
Fix it by actually comparing unit offsets to determine cpus occupying
the lowest and highest offsets. Also, rename pcu_first/last_unit_cpu
to pcpu_low/high_unit_cpu to avoid confusion.
The chunk address range is used to flush cache on vmalloc area
map/unmap and decide whether a given address is in the first chunk by
per_cpu_ptr_to_phys() and the bug was discovered by invalid
per_cpu_ptr_to_phys() translation for crash_note.

This fixes the A->B/B->A locking dependency, see the warning below.
The function task_exit_notify() is called with (task_exit_notifier)
.rwsem set and then calls sync_buffer() which locks buffer_mutex. In
sync_start() the buffer_mutex was set to prevent notifier functions to
be started before sync_start() is finished. But when registering the
notifier, (task_exit_notifier).rwsem is locked too, but now in
different order than in sync_buffer(). In theory this causes a locking
dependency, what does not occur in practice since task_exit_notify()
is always called after the notifier is registered which means the lock
is already released.
However, after checking the notifier functions it turned out the
buffer_mutex in sync_start() is unnecessary. This is because
sync_buffer() may be called from the notifiers even if sync_start()
did not finish yet, the buffers are already allocated but empty. No
need to protect this with the mutex.
So we fix this theoretical locking dependency by removing buffer_mutex
in sync_start(). This is similar to the implementation before commit:
750d857 oprofile: fix crash when accessing freed task structs
which introduced the locking dependency.

As a board may have multiple codecs, with some faster than others to

In commit f8924e770e04 ("x86: unify mp_bus_info"), the 32-bit
and 64-bit versions of MP_bus_info were rearranged to match each
other better. Unfortunately it introduced a regression: prior
to that change we used to always set the mp_bus_not_pci bit,
then clear it if we found a PCI bus. After it, we set
mp_bus_not_pci for ISA buses, clear it for PCI buses, and leave
it alone otherwise.
In the cases of ISA and PCI, there's not much difference. But
ISA is not the only non-PCI bus, so it's better to always set
mp_bus_not_pci and clear it only for PCI.
Without this change, Dan's Dell PowerEdge 4200 panics on boot
with a log indicating interrupt routing trouble unless the
"noapic" option is supplied. With this change, the machine
boots reliably without "noapic".
In hundreds of days, the __cycles_2_ns calculation in sched_clock
has an overflow. cyc * per_cpu(cyc2ns, cpu) exceeds 64 bits, causing
the final value to become zero. We can solve this without losing
any precision.
We can decompose TSC into quotient and remainder of division by the
scale factor, and then use this to convert TSC into nanoseconds.

The stable release 2.6.32.32 added the upstream commit 12fed00de963433128b5366a21a55808fab2f756. However, one of the hunks of
the original patch seems missing from the stable backport which can be
found here:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.stable/5676
This hunk corresponds to the change in is_valid_oplock_break() at
fs/cifs/misc.c.
This patch backports the missing hunk and is against
linux-2.6.32.y stable kernel.

When we tear down a device we try to flush all outstanding
commands in scsi_free_queue(). However the check in
scsi_request_fn() is imperfect as it only signals that
we _might start_ aborting commands, not that we've actually
aborted some.
So move the printk inside the scsi_kill_request function,
this will also give us a hint about which commands are aborted.

Interrupts must be disabled prior to calling usb_hcd_unlink_urb_from_ep.
If interrupts are not disabled, it can potentially lead to a deadlock.
The deadlock is readily reproduceable on a slower (ARM based) device
such as the TI Pandaboard.
vlan: Centralize handling of hardware acceleration.
The bulk of that commit is a rework of the hardware assisted vlan tagging
driver interface, and as such doesn't classify for -stable inclusion. The fix
that is needed is a part of that commit but can work independently of the
rest.
This patch can avoid panics on the 2.6.32.y -stable kernels and is in the same
spirit as mainline commits 66c46d7 gro: Reset dev pointer on reuse 6d152e2 gro: reset skb_iif on reuse
which are already in -stable.
For drivers using the vlan_gro_frags() interface, a packet with an invalid tci
leads to GRO_DROP and napi_reuse_skb(). The skb has to be sanitized before
being reused or we may send an skb with an invalid vlan_tci field up the stack
where it is not expected.

priv->work must not be synced while priv->mutex is locked, because
the mutex is taken in the work handler.
Move cancel_work_sync down to after the device shutdown code.
This is safe, because the work handler checks fw_state and bails out
early in case of a race.

ktime_get and ktime_get_ts were calling timekeeping_get_ns()
but later they were not calling arch_gettimeoffset() so architectures
using this mechanism returned 0 ns when calling these functions.
This happened for example when running Busybox's ping which calls
syscall(__NR_clock_gettime, CLOCK_MONOTONIC, ts) which eventually
calls ktime_get. As a result the returned ping travel time was zero.
By returning '0' instead of 'EAGAIN' when the tests in xs_nospace() fail
to find evidence of socket congestion, we are making the RPC engine believe
that the message was incorrectly sent and so it disconnects the socket
instead of just retrying.

commit 6175ddf06b6172046a329e3abfd9c901a43efd2e optimized the mem*io
functions that have been used to send commands to the device. these
optimizations somehow corrupted the communication with the lx6464es,
that resulted the device to be unusable with kernels after 2.6.33.
this patch emulates the memcpy_*_io functions via a loop to avoid these
problems.
This patch implements a workaround for PL310 erratum 769419. On
revisions of the PL310 prior to r3p2, the Store Buffer does not
automatically drain. This can cause normal, non-cacheable writes to be
retained when the memory system is idle, leading to suboptimal I/O
performance for drivers using coherent DMA.
This patch adds an optional wmb() call to the cpu_idle loop. On systems
with an outer cache, this causes an explicit flush of the store buffer.

Previously we claimed device ID 0x7450, regardless of the vendor, which is
clearly wrong. Now we'll claim that device ID only for AMD.
I suspect this was just a typo in the original code, but it's possible this
change will break shpchp on non-7450 AMD bridges. If so, we'll have to fix
them as we find them.
Characters with ASCII values greater than the size of
filename_rev_map[] are valid filename characters.
ecryptfs_decode_from_filename() will access kernel memory beyond
that array, and ecryptfs_parse_tag_70_packet() will then decrypt
those characters. The attacker, using the FNEK of the crafted file,
can then re-encrypt the characters to reveal the kernel memory past
the end of the filename_rev_map[] array. I expect low security
impact since this array is statically allocated in the text area,
and the amount of memory past the array that is accessible is
limited by the largest possible ASCII filename character.
This patch solves the issue reported by mhalcrow but with an
implementation suggested by Linus to simply extend the length of
filename_rev_map[] to 256. Characters greater than 0x7A are mapped to
0x00, which is how invalid characters less than 0x7A were previously
being handled.
Dan Rosenberg noted that various drivers return the struct with uncleared
fields. Instead of spending forever trying to stomp all the drivers that
get it wrong (and every new driver) do the job in one place.
This first patch adds the needed operations and hooks them up, including
the needed USB midlayer and serial core plumbing.

The 8020i protocol (also 8070i and QIC-157) uses 12-byte commands;
shorter commands must be padded. Simon Detheridge reports that his
3-TB USB disk drive claims to use the 8020i protocol (which is
normally meant for ATAPI devices like CD drives), and because of its
large size, the disk drive requires the use of 16-byte commands.
However the usb_stor_pad12_command() routine in usb-storage always
sets the command length to 12, making the drive impossible to use.
Since the SFF-8020i specification allows for 16-byte commands in
future extensions, we may as well accept them. This patch (as1490)
changes usb_stor_pad12_command() to leave commands larger than 12
bytes alone rather than truncating them.

ftdi_set_termios() is constantly setting the baud rate, data bits and parity
unnecessarily on every call, . When called while characters are being
transmitted can cause the FTDI chip to corrupt the serial port bit stream
output by stalling the output half a bit during the output of a character.
Simple fix by skipping this setting if the baud rate/data bits/parity are
unchanged.

Then I search the usb-serial codes, and there are
two drivers announce support this device, pl2303
and ch341, commit 026dfaf1 cause it. Through many
times to test, ch341 works well with this device,
and pl2303 doesn't work quite often(it just work quite little).
ch341 works well with this device, so we doesn't
need pl2303 to support.I try to revert 026dfaf1 first,
but it failed. So I prepare this patch by hand to revert it.

Starting with 4.4, gcc will happily accept -Wno-<anything> in the
cc-option test and complain later when compiling a file that has some
other warning. This rather unexpected behavior is intentional as per
http://gcc.gnu.org/PR28322, so work around it by testing for support of
the opposite option (without the no-). Introduce a new Makefile function
cc-disable-warning that does this and update two uses of cc-option in
the toplevel Makefile.

At this point, skb->data points to skb_transport_header.
So, headroom check is wrong.
For some case:bridge(UFO is on) + eth device(UFO is off),
there is no enough headroom for IPv6 frag head.
But headroom check is always false.
This will bring about data be moved to there prior to skb->head,
when adding IPv6 frag header to skb.

The /proc/vmallocinfo shows information about vmalloc allocations in vmlist
that is a linklist of vm_struct. It, however, may access pages field of
vm_struct where a page was not allocated. This results in a null pointer
access and leads to a kernel panic.
Why this happen:
In __vmalloc_node() called from vmalloc(), newly allocated vm_struct
is added to vmlist at __get_vm_area_node() and then, some fields of
vm_struct such as nr_pages and pages are set at __vmalloc_area_node(). In
other words, it is added to vmlist before it is fully initialized. At the
same time, when the /proc/vmallocinfo is read, it accesses the pages field
of vm_struct according to the nr_pages field at show_numa_info(). Thus, a
null pointer access happens.
Patch:
This patch adds newly allocated vm_struct to the vmlist *after* it is fully
initialized. So, it can avoid accessing the pages field with unallocated
page when show_numa_info() is called.

This adds a mechanism to resume selected IRQs during syscore_resume
instead of dpm_resume_noirq.
Under Xen we need to resume IRQs associated with IPIs early enough
that the resched IPI is unmasked and we can therefore schedule
ourselves out of the stop_machine where the suspend/resume takes
place.
This issue was introduced by 676dc3cf5bc3 "xen: Use IRQF_FORCE_RESUME".
Back ported to 2.6.32 (which lacks syscore support) by calling the relavant
resume function directly from sysdev_resume).

This example file uses the old V4L1 API. It also doesn't use libv4l.
So, it is completely obsolete. A good example already exists at
v4l-utils (v4l2grab.c):
http://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git
When the number of failed devices exceeds the allowed number
we must abort any active parity operations (checks or updates) as they
are no longer meaningful, and can lead to a BUG_ON in
handle_parity_checks6.
