2010-01-18powerpc: Handle VSX alignment faults correctly in little-endian modeNeil Campbell
commit bb7f20b1c639606def3b91f4e4aca6daeee5d80a upstream. This patch fixes the handling of VSX alignment faults in little-endian mode (the current code assumes the processor is in big-endian mode). The patch also makes the handlers clear the top 8 bytes of the register when handling an 8 byte VSX load. This is based on 2.6.32.

2010-01-18powerpc: Disable VSX or current process in giveup_fpu/altivecMichael Neuling
commit 7e875e9dc8af70d126fa632446e967327ac3fdda upstream. When we call giveup_fpu, we need to need to turn off VSX for the current process. If we don't, on return to userspace it may execute a VSX instruction before the next FP instruction, and not have its register state refreshed correctly from the thread_struct. Ditto for altivec. This caused a bug where an unaligned lfs or stfs results in fix_alignment calling giveup_fpu so it can use the FPRs (in order to do a single <-> double conversion), and then returning to userspace with FP off but VSX on. Then if a VSX instruction is executed, before another FP instruction, it will proceed without another exception and hence have the incorrect register state for VSX registers 0-31. lfs unaligned <- alignment exception turns FP off but leaves VSX on VSX instruction <- no exception since VSX on, hence we get the wrong VSX register values for VSX registers 0-31, which overlap the FPRs.

2010-01-18fix braindamage in audit_tree.c untag_chunk()Al Viro
commit 6f5d51148921c242680a7a1d9913384a30ab3cbe upstream. ... aka "Al had badly fscked up when writing that thing and nobody noticed until Eric had fixed leaks that used to mask the breakage". The function essentially creates a copy of old array sans one element and replaces the references to elements of original (they are on cyclic lists) with those to corresponding elements of new one. After that the old one is fair game for freeing. First of all, there's a dumb braino: when we get to list_replace_init we use indices for wrong arrays - position in new one with the old array and vice versa. Another bug is more subtle - termination condition is wrong if the element to be excluded happens to be the last one. We shouldn't go until we fill the new array, we should go until we'd finished the old one. Otherwise the element we are trying to kill will remain on the cyclic lists... That crap used to be masked by several leaks, so it was not quite trivial to hit. Eric had fixed some of those leaks a while ago and the shit had hit the fan...

2010-01-18kernel/signal.c: fix kernel information leak with print-fatal-signals=1Andi Kleen
commit b45c6e76bc2c72f6426c14bed64fdcbc9bf37cb0 upstream. When print-fatal-signals is enabled it's possible to dump any memory reachable by the kernel to the log by simply jumping to that address from user space. Or crash the system if there's some hardware with read side effects. The fatal signals handler will dump 16 bytes at the execution address, which is fully controlled by ring 3. In addition when something jumps to a unmapped address there will be up to 16 additional useless page faults, which might be potentially slow (and at least is not very efficient) Fortunately this option is off by default and only there on i386. But fix it by checking for kernel addresses and also stopping when there's a page fault.

2010-01-06S390: dasd: support DIAG access for read-only devicesStefan Weinhuber
commit 22825ab7693fd29769518a0d25ba43c01a50092a upstream. When a DASD device is used with the DIAG discipline, the DIAG initialization will indicate success or error with a respective return code. So far we have interpreted a return code of 4 as error, but it actually means that the initialization was successful, but the device is read-only. To allow read-only devices to be used with DIAG we need to accept a return code of 4 as success. Re-initialization of the DIAG access is also part of the DIAG error recovery. If we find that the access mode of a device has been changed from writable to read-only while the device was in use, we print an error message.

delivery commit 0b5ccb2ee250136dd7385b1c7da28417d0d4d32d upstream. Currently the same reassembly queue might be used for packets reassembled by conntrack in different positions in the stack (PREROUTING/LOCAL_OUT), as well as local delivery. This can cause "packet jumps" when the fragment completing a reassembled packet is queued from a different position in the stack than the previous ones. Add a "user" identifier to the reassembly queue key to seperate the queues of each caller, similar to what we do for IPv4.

commit 45b241689179a6065384260242637cf21dabfb2d upstream. The libertas driver copies the SSID buffer back to the wireless core and appends a trailing NULL character for termination. This is a) unnecessary because the buffer is allocated with kzalloc and is hence already NULLed when this function is called, and b) for priv->curbssparams.ssid_len == 32, it writes back one byte too much which causes memory corruptions.

PCI tree commit 4528752f49c1f4025473d12bc5fa9181085c3f22 upstream. On a multi-node x3950M2 system, there's a slight oddity in the PCI device tree for all secondary nodes: 30:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev e1) \-33:00.0 PCI bridge: IBM CalIOC2 PCI-E Root Port (rev 01) \-34:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04) ...as compared to the primary node: 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev e1) \-01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc ES1000 (rev 02) 03:00.0 PCI bridge: IBM CalIOC2 PCI-E Root Port (rev 01) \-04:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04) In both nodes, the LSI RAID controller hangs off a CalIOC2 device, but on the secondary nodes, the BIOS hides the VGA device and substitutes the device tree ending with the disk controller. It would seem that Calgary devices don't necessarily appear at the top of the PCI tree, which means that the current code to find the Calgary IOMMU that goes with a particular device is buggy. Rather than walk all the way to the top of the PCI device tree and try to match bus number with Calgary descriptor, the code needs to examine each parent of the particular device; if it encounters a Calgary with a matching bus number, simply use that. Otherwise, we BUG() when the bus number of the Calgary doesn't match the bus number of whatever's at the top of the device tree.

2009-12-18pata_hpt{37x|3x2n}: fix timing register masks (take 2)Sergei Shtylyov
commit 5600c70e576199a7552e1c0fff43f3fe16f5566e upstream. These drivers inherited from the older 'hpt366' IDE driver the buggy timing register masks in their set_piomode() metods. As a result, too low command cycle active time is programmed for slow PIO modes. Quite fortunately, it's later "fixed up" by the set_dmamode() methods which also "helpfully" reprogram the command timings, usually to PIO mode 4; unfortunately, setting an UltraDMA mode #N also reprograms already set PIO data timings, usually to MWDMA mode # max(N, 2) timings... However, the drivers added some breakage of their own too: the bit that they set/clear to control the FIFO is sometimes wrong -- it's actually the MSB of the command cycle setup time; also, setting it in DMA mode is wrong as this bit is only for PIO actually and clearing it for PIO modes is not needed as no mode in any timing table has it set... Fix all this, inverting the masks while at it, like in the 'hpt366' and 'pata_hpt366' drivers; bump the drivers' versions, accounting for recent patches that forgot to do it...

2009-12-18hfs: fix a potential buffer overflowAmerigo Wang
commit ec81aecb29668ad71f699f4e7b96ec46691895b6 upstream. A specially-crafted Hierarchical File System (HFS) filesystem could cause a buffer overflow to occur in a process's kernel stack during a memcpy() call within the hfs_bnode_read() function (at fs/hfs/bnode.c:24). The attacker can provide the source buffer and length, and the destination buffer is a local variable of a fixed length. This local variable (passed as "&entry" from fs/hfs/dir.c:112 and allocated on line 60) is stored in the stack frame of hfs_bnode_read()'s caller, which is hfs_readdir(). Because the hfs_readdir() function executes upon any attempt to read a directory on the filesystem, it gets called whenever a user attempts to inspect any filesystem contents.

Queueing to receive an ISO packet with a payload length of zero silently does nothing in dualbuffer mode, and crashes the kernel in packet-per-buffer mode. Return an error in dualbuffer mode, because the DMA controller won't let us do what we want, and work correctly in packet-per-buffer mode.

commit d3a3b0adad0865c12e39b712ca89efbd0a3a0dbc upstream. Setting fops and private data outside of the mutex at debugfs file creation introduces a race where the files can be opened with the wrong file operations and private data. It is easy to trigger with a process waiting on file creation notification.

2009-12-18signal: Fix alternate signal stack checkSebastian Andrzej Siewior
commit 2a855dd01bc1539111adb7233f587c5c468732ac upstream. All architectures in the kernel increment/decrement the stack pointer before storing values on the stack. On architectures which have the stack grow down sas_ss_sp == sp is not on the alternate signal stack while sas_ss_sp + sas_ss_size == sp is on the alternate signal stack. On architectures which have the stack grow up sas_ss_sp == sp is on the alternate signal stack while sas_ss_sp + sas_ss_size == sp is not on the alternate signal stack. The current implementation fails for architectures which have the stack grow down on the corner case where sas_ss_sp == sp.This was reported as Debian bug #544905 on AMD64. Simplified test case: http://download.breakpoint.cc/tc-sig-stack.c The test case creates the following stack scenario: 0xn0300 stack top 0xn0200 alt stack pointer top (when switching to alt stack) 0xn01ff alt stack end 0xn0100 alt stack start == stack pointer If the signal is sent the stack pointer is pointing to the base address of the alt stack and the kernel erroneously decides that it has already switched to the alternate stack because of the current check for "sp - sas_ss_sp < sas_ss_size" On parisc (stack grows up) the scenario would be: 0xn0200 stack pointer 0xn01ff alt stack end 0xn0100 alt stack start = alt stack pointer base (when switching to alt stack) 0xn0000 stack base This is handled correctly by the current implementation. [ tglx: Modified for archs which have the stack grow up (parisc) which would fail with the correct implementation for stack grows down. Added a check for sp >= current->sas_ss_sp which is strictly not necessary but makes the code symetric for both variants ] Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <sebastian@breakpoint.cc> Cc: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Cc: Kyle McMartin <kyle@mcmartin.ca> LKML-Reference: <20091025143758.GA6653@Chamillionaire.breakpoint.cc> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2009-12-08USB: usb-serial: replace shutdown with disconnect, releaseAlan Stern
This is commit f9c99bb8b3a1ec81af68d484a551307326c2e933 back-ported to 2.6.27.39. This patch (as1254-2) splits up the shutdown method of usb_serial_driver into a disconnect and a release method. The problem is that the usb-serial core was calling shutdown during disconnect handling, but drivers didn't expect it to be called until after all the open file references had been closed. The result was an oops when the close method tried to use memory that had been deallocated by shutdown.

commit 1b7323965a8c6eee9dc4e345a7ae4bff1dc93149 upstream. The comment in fuse_open about O_DIRECT: "VFS checks this, but only _after_ ->open()" also holds for fuse_create, however, the same kind of check was missing there. As an impact of this bug, open(newfile, O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_DIRECT) fails, but a stub newfile will remain if the fuse server handled the implied FUSE_CREATE request appropriately. Other impact: in the above situation ima_file_free() will complain to open/free imbalance if CONFIG_IMA is set.

2009-12-08Enable ACPI PDC handshake for VIA/Centaur CPUsHarald Welte
commit d77b81974521c82fa6fda38dfff1b491dcc62a32 upstream. In commit 0de51088e6a82bc8413d3ca9e28bbca2788b5b53, we introduced the use of acpi-cpufreq on VIA/Centaur CPU's by removing a vendor check for VENDOR_INTEL. However, as it turns out, at least the Nano CPU's also need the PDC (processor driver capabilities) handshake in order to activate the methods required for acpi-cpufreq. Since arch_acpi_processor_init_pdc() contains another vendor check for Intel, the PDC is not initialized on VIA CPU's. The resulting behavior of a current mainline kernel on such systems is: acpi-cpufreq loads and it indicates CPU frequency changes. However, the CPU stays at a single frequency This trivial patch ensures that init_intel_pdc() is called on Intel and VIA/Centaur CPU's alike.

2009-12-08V4L/DVB (13230): s2255drv: Don't conditionalize video buffer completion on ↵Mike Isely
waiting processes commit 1f95725755ab67f3198df3b5bf7517f926f310ca upstream. The s2255 driver had logic which aborted processing of a video frame if there was no process waiting on the video buffer in question. That simply doesn't work when the application is doing things in an asynchronous manner. If the application went to the trouble to queue the buffer in the first place, then the driver should always attempt to complete it - even if the application at that moment has its attention turned elsewhere. Applications which always blocked waiting for I/O on the capture device would not have been affected by this. Applications which *mostly* blocked waiting for I/O on the capture device probably only would have been somewhat affected (frame lossage, at a rate which goes up as the application blocks less). Applications which never blocked on the capture device (e.g. polling only) however would never have been able to receive any video frames, since in that case this "is anyone waiting on this?" check on the buffer never would have evalutated true. This patch just deletes that harmful check against the buffer's wait queue.

commit 96fbf771d86a90ff006bc62ca4d4de6474b3de31 upstream. Because the counters were not reset when starting up streaming, they would be reused from the previous run. This can result in cases such that when the second instance of streaming starts up, the "cnt" variable in em28xx_audio_isocirq() can end up being negative, resulting in attempting to write to memory before the start of runtime->dma_area (as well as having a negative number of bytes to copy).
