| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - driver receives many null TS packets (pid=0x1fff). They occupy the limited USB bandwidth and this leads to loss of video packets.

* [PATCH] CDRW/DVD packet writing data corruption fixPeter Osterlund2005-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I found a bug in the packet writing driver that could cause data corruption. The problem arised if the driver got a write request for a sector in a "zone" it was already working on. In that case it was supposed to queue the write request until it was done processing earlier requests for the same zone, and instead work on some other zone in the mean time. However, if there was no other zone to work on, the driver would initiate two packet_data objects for the same zone, causing unpredictable things to happen.

* [PATCH] Fix root hole in pktcdvdPeter Osterlund2005-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | ioctl_by_bdev may only be used INSIDE the kernel. If the "arg" argument refers to memory that is accessed by put_user/get_user in the ioctl function, the memory needs to be in the kernel address space (that's the set_fs(KERNEL_DS) doing in the ioctl_by_bdev). This works on i386 because even with set_fs(KERNEL_DS) the user space memory is still accessible with put_user/get_user. That is not true for s390. In short the ioctl implementation of the pktcdvd device driver is horribly broken.

* [PATCH] Fix root hole in raw deviceStephen Tweedie2005-05-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [Patch] Fix raw device ioctl pass-through Raw character devices are supposed to pass ioctls through to the block devices they are bound to. Unfortunately, they are using the wrong function for this: ioctl_by_bdev(), instead of blkdev_ioctl(). ioctl_by_bdev() performs a set_fs(KERNEL_DS) before calling the ioctl, redirecting the user-space buffer access to the kernel address space. This is, needless to say, a bad thing. This was noticed first on s390, where raw IO was non-functioning. The s390 driver config does not actually allow raw IO to be enabled, which was the first part of the problem. Secondly, the s390 kernel address space is distinct from user, causing legal raw ioctls to fail. I've reproduced this on a kernel built with 4G:4G split on x86, which fails in the same way (-EFAULT if the address does not exist kernel-side; returns success without actually populating the user buffer if it does.) The patch below fixes both the config and address-space problems. It's based closely on a patch by Jan Glauber <jang@de.ibm.com>, which has been tested on s390 at IBM. I've tested it on x86 4G:4G (split address space) and x86_64 (common address space). Kernel-address-space access has been assigned CAN-2005-1264.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Version 2 of the 3com OfficeConnect 11g Cardbus Card aka 3CRWE154G72 is not supported by the prism54 project. To stop confusion, the kernel documentation should state so as 3com made a good job hiding the version.
