But the returned error code was wrong: to modprobe, the -EEXIST means that _this_ driver is already installed. It therefore doesn't produce the needed error message when _another_ driver is trying to register for the same device. Returning -EBUSY fixes the problem.

If the status of the sensed cpu is all zeros condition code 0 (accpeted) is set and no status bits are returned. The current code however assumes that a status was returned and tests bits in it. This means uninitalized data is accessed with random results. Worst case is that the code that checks if cpu is offline on cpu hotplug assumes that the target cpu is offline while it is still running. This leads potentially to memory corruption since resources that are still needed by the target cpu will be freed and could be resused while still in use.

Dumpers will store the register contents of a cpu to the location where its prefix register points to. For offlined cpus the area (lowcore) has been freed and the dumper would write the uninteresting contents of the offline cpu to a memory location which might be in use by some other component and destroy valueable information. To fix this set the prefix register of offline cpus to absolute address zero again. This prevents the current dumpers to write to random memory locations.

Quoting from commit 0a82a623: In these situations the default N-disk algorithm will present 0-source or 1-source operations to dma devices. To cover for dma devices where the minimum source count is 2 we implement 4-disk and 5-disk handling in the recovery code. The ddf layout presents disks=6 and disks=7 to the recovery code in these situations. Instead of looking at the number of disks count the number of non-zero sources in the list and call the special case code when the number of non-failed sources is 0 or 1.

For RAID6 we sometime leave 'blanks' in the list of pages. For CPU based calcs, we want to treat theses as a page of zeros. For offloaded calculations, we simply don't pass a page to the hardware. Currently the 'blanks' are encoded as a pointer to raid6_empty_zero_page. This is a 4096 byte memory region, not a 'struct page'. This is mostly handled correctly but is rather ugly. So change the code to pass and expect a NULL pointer for the blanks. When taking page_address of a page, we need to check for a NULL and in that case use raid6_empty_zero_page.

However sometimes we want to use a number which is the total number of currently required devices - the larger of the 'old' and 'new' sizes. Before we implemented reducing the number of devices, this was always 'new' i.e. ->raid_disks. Now we need max(raid_disks, previous_raid_disks) in those places. This particularly affects assembling an array that was shutdown while in the middle of a reshape to fewer devices. md.c needs a similar fix when interpreting the md metadata.

However, this model is too simplistic and leads to stripes bouncing between raid5d and the async thread pool for every invocation of handle_stripe(). As reported by Holger this can fall into a pathological situation severely impacting throughput (6x performance loss). By downleveling the parallelism to raid_run_ops the pathological stripe_head bouncing is eliminated. This version still exhibits an average 11% throughput loss for: mdadm --create /dev/md0 /dev/sd[b-q] -n 16 -l 6 echo 1024 > /sys/block/md0/md/stripe_cache_size dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md0 bs=1024k count=2048 ...but the results are at least stable and can be used as a base for further multicore experimentation.

Setup that demonstrates this hardware bug: Ultra 5, onboard CMD646, rev 3. /dev/hda is 8GB Seagate ST38410A in MWDMA2 /dev/hdd is 32GB SSD SiliconHardDisk in MWDMA2 - When reading /dev/hdd (for example with dd or fsck), reads from /dev/hda are corrupted, there are twiddled single bits 1->0 and some full 32-bit words corrupted, sometimes commands fail (which switches /dev/hda to PIO mode but the corruptions happen even in PIO). - Reads from /dev/hdd don't seem to be corrupted (i.e. fsck passes fine). - When I connected normal rotating harddisk to /dev/hdd, there was no corruption, so the corruption is something specific to SSD. - I tried the same setup on a PCI card with CMD649 and saw no corruption. This patch serializes the operation for CMD646 and 643 (I didn't test CMD643 but it may have the same hw bug too because it's earlier design). CMD649 is good. I don't know anything about CMD 648.

Apparently when using AF_RAW sockets to send data to peers that were reachable via ipsec encapsulation, people could panic or BUG halt their systems. I've tracked the problem down to user space sending an invalid ip header over an AF_RAW socket with IP_HDRINCL set to 1. Basically what happens is that userspace sends down an ip frame that includes only the header (no data), but sets the ip header ihl value to a large number, one that is larger than the total amount of data passed to the sendmsg call. In raw_send_hdrincl, we allocate an skb based on the size of the data in the msghdr that was passed in, but assume the data is all valid. Later during ipsec encapsulation, xfrm4_tranport_output moves the entire frame back in the skbuff to provide headroom for the ipsec headers. During this operation, the skb->transport_header is repointed to a spot computed by skb->network_header + the ip header length (ihl). Since so little data was passed in relative to the value of ihl provided by the raw socket, we point transport header to an unknown location, resulting in various crashes. This fix for this is pretty straightforward, simply validate the value of of iph->ihl when sending over a raw socket. If (iph->ihl*4U) > user data buffer size, drop the frame and return -EINVAL. I just confirmed this fixes the reported crashes. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
