2009-06-26ACPI: video: prevent NULL deref in acpi_get_pci_dev()Troy Moure1-1/+1
ref: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/857228/focus=857468 When the ACPI video driver initializes, it does a namespace walk looking for for supported devices. When we find an appropriate handle, we walk up the ACPI tree looking for a PCI root bus, and then walk back down the PCI bus, assuming that every device inbetween is a P2P bridge. This assumption is not correct, and is reported broken on at least: Dell Latitude E6400 ThinkPad X61 Dell XPS M1330 Add a NULL deref check to prevent boot panics.

2009-06-26eeepc-laptop: Register as a pci-hotplug deviceCorentin Chary2-0/+89
The eee contains a logically (but not physically) hotpluggable PCIe slot. Currently this is handled by adding or removing the PCI device in response to rfkill events, but if a user has forced pciehp to bind to it (with the force=1 argument) then both drivers will try to handle the event and hilarity (in the form of oopses) will ensue. This can be avoided by having eee-laptop register the slot as a hotplug slot. Only one of pciehp and eee-laptop will successfully register this, avoiding the problem.

2009-06-26[CIFS] remove unknown mount option warning messageSteve French1-0/+4
Jeff's previous patch which removed the unneeded rw/ro parsing can cause a minor warning in dmesg (about the unknown rw or ro mount option) at mount time.

2009-06-26[CIFS] remove bkl usage from umount beginSteve French1-4/+7

This adds a check to make sure we don't call umount_begin twice on the same fs. umount_begin for cifs is probably not needed and may eventually be able to be removed, but in the meantime this smaller patch is safe and gets rid of the bkl from this path which provides some benefit.

2009-06-25cifs: Fix incorrect return code being printed in cFYI messagesSuresh Jayaraman5-20/+40
FreeXid() along with freeing Xid does add a cifsFYI debug message that prints rc (return code) as well. In some code paths where we set/return error code after calling FreeXid(), incorrect error code is being printed when cifsFYI is enabled. This could be misleading in few cases. For eg. In cifs_open() if cifs_fill_filedata() returns a valid pointer to cifsFileInfo, FreeXid() prints rc=-13 whereas 0 is actually being returned. Fix this by setting rc before calling FreeXid(). Basically convert FreeXid(xid); rc = -ERR; return -ERR; => FreeXid(xid); return rc; [Note that Christoph would like to replace the GetXid/FreeXid calls, which are primarily used for debugging. This seems like a good longer term goal, but although there is an alternative tracing facility, there are no examples yet available that I know of that we can use (yet) to convert this cifs function entry/exit logging, and for creating an identifier that we can use to correlate all dmesg log entries for a particular vfs operation (ie identify all log entries for a particular vfs request to cifs: e.g. a particular close or read or write or byte range lock call ... and just using the thread id is harder). Eventually when a replacement for this is available (e.g. when NFS switches over and various samples to look at in other file systems) we can remove the GetXid/FreeXid macro but in the meantime multiple people use this run time configurable logging all the time for debugging, and Suresh's patch fixes a problem which made it harder to notice some low memory problems in the log so it is worthwhile to fix this problem until a better logging approach is able to be used] Acked-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Suresh Jayaraman <sjayaraman@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>

This commit 335f8514f200e63d689113d29cb7253a5c282967 has stopped properly checking if there is any usb serial associated with the tty in the close function. It happens the close function is called by releasing the terminal right after opening the device fails. As an example, open fails with a non-existing device, when probe has never been called, because the device has never been plugged. This is common in systems with static modules and no udev.

2009-06-24futex: Fix the write access fault problem for realThomas Gleixner1-21/+24
commit 64d1304a64 (futex: setup writeable mapping for futex ops which modify user space data) did address only half of the problem of write access faults. The patch was made on two wrong assumptions: 1) access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE,...) would actually check write access. On x86 it does _NOT_. It's a pure address range check. 2) a RW mapped region can not go away under us. That's wrong as well. Nobody can prevent another thread to call mprotect(PROT_READ) on that region where the futex resides. If that call hits between the get_user_pages_fast() verification and the actual write access in the atomic region we are toast again. The solution is to not rely on access_ok and get_user() for any write access related fault on private and shared futexes. Instead we need to fault it in with verification of write access. There is no generic non destructive write mechanism which would fault the user page in trough a #PF, but as we already know that we will fault we can as well call get_user_pages() directly and avoid the #PF overhead. If get_user_pages() returns -EFAULT we know that we can not fix it anymore and need to bail out to user space. Remove a bunch of confusing comments on this issue as well.

2009-06-24Staging: octeon-ethernet: Fix race freeing transmit buffers.David Daney4-66/+106
The existing code had the following race: Thread-1 Thread-2 inc/read in_use inc/read in_use inc tx_free_list[qos].len inc tx_free_list[qos].len The actual in_use value was incremented twice, but thread-1 is going to free memory based on its stale value, and will free one too many times. The result is that memory is freed back to the kernel while its packet is still in the transmit buffer. If the memory is overwritten before it is transmitted, the hardware will put a valid checksum on it and send it out (just like it does with good packets). If by chance the TCP flags are clobbered but not the addresses or ports, the result can be a broken TCP stream. The fix is to track the number of freed packets in a single location (a Fetch-and-Add Unit register). That way it can never get out of sync with itself. We try to free up to MAX_SKB_TO_FREE (currently 10) buffers at a time. If fewer are available we adjust the free count with the difference. The action of claiming buffers to free is atomic so two threads cannot claim the same buffers. Signed-off-by: David Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
