* [PATCH] sysctl: implement CTL_UNNUMBEREDEric W. Biederman2006-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch takes the CTL_UNNUMBERD concept from NFS and makes it available to all new sysctl users. At the same time the sysctl binary interface maintenance documentation is updated to mention and to describe what is needed to successfully maintain the sysctl binary interface.

* [PATCH] sysctl: allow a zero ctl_name in the middle of a sysctl tableEric W. Biederman2006-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since it is becoming clear that there are just enough users of the binary sysctl interface that completely removing the binary interface from the kernel will not be an option for foreseeable future, we need to find a way to address the sysctl maintenance issues. The basic problem is that sysctl requires one central authority to allocate sysctl numbers, or else conflicts and ABI breakage occur. The proc interface to sysctl does not have that problem, as names are not densely allocated. By not terminating a sysctl table until I have neither a ctl_name nor a procname, it becomes simple to add sysctl entries that don't show up in the binary sysctl interface. Which allows people to avoid allocating a binary sysctl value when not needed. I have audited the kernel code and in my reading I have not found a single sysctl table that wasn't terminated by a completely zero filled entry. So this change in behavior should not affect anything. I think this mechanism eases the pain enough that combined with a little disciple we can solve the reoccurring sysctl ABI breakage.

* [PATCH] Fix the spurious unlock_cpu_hotplug false warningsGautham R Shenoy2006-11-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Cpu-hotplug locking has a minor race case caused because of setting the variable "recursive" to NULL *after* releasing the cpu_bitmask_lock in the function unlock_cpu_hotplug,instead of doing so before releasing the cpu_bitmask_lock. This was the cause of most of the recent false spurious lock_cpu_unlock warnings. This should fix the problem reported by Martin Lorenz reported in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/29/127.

On the next tg3_open(), some devices such as the 5752M will not be brought up correctly without a PHY reset early in the reset sequence. The PHY clock is needed for some internal MAC blocks to function correctly. This problem is fixed by always resetting the PHY early in tg3_reset_hw() when it is called from tg3_open() or tg3_resume(). tg3_setup_phy() can then be called later in the sequence without the reset_phy parameter set to 1, since the PHY reset is already done.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | When I added the entries for the robust futex syscall entries, I forgot to bump NR_SYSCALLS. The current situation is error-prone because NR_SYSCALLS lives in entry.S where the system call limit checks are enforced. Move the definition to asm/unistd.h in order to make this mistake much more difficult to make. And wire up sys_migrate_pages since the powerpc folks implemented the compat wrapper for us.

* Make sure "user->sigpending" count is in syncLinus Torvalds2006-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous commit (45c18b0bb579b5c1b89f8c99f1b6ffa4c586ba08, aka "Fix unlikely (but possible) race condition on task->user access") fixed a potential oops due to __sigqueue_alloc() getting its "user" pointer out of sync with switch_user(), and accessing a user pointer that had been de-allocated on another CPU. It still left another (much less serious) problem, where a concurrent __sigqueue_alloc and swich_user could cause sigqueue_alloc to do signal pending reference counting for a _different_ user than the one it then actually ended up using. No oops, but we'd end up with the wrong signal accounting. Another case of Oleg's eagle-eyes picking up the problem. This is trivially fixed by just making sure we load whichever "user" structure we decide to use (it doesn't matter _which_ one we pick, we just need to pick one) just once.

* Fix unlikely (but possible) race condition on task->user accessLinus Torvalds2006-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a possible race condition when doing a "switch_uid()" from one user to another, which could race with another thread doing a signal allocation and looking at the old thread ->user pointer as it is freed. This explains an oops reported by Lukasz Trabinski: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/462241 We fix this by delaying the (reference-counted) freeing of the user structure until the thread signal handler lock has been released, so that we know that the signal allocation has either seen the new value or has properly incremented the reference count of the old one.

* Revert unintentional "volatile" changes in ipc/msg.cLinus Torvalds2006-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 5a06a363ef48444186f18095ae1b932dddbbfa89 ("[PATCH] ipc/msg.c: clean up coding style") breaks fakeroot on Alpha (variously hangs or oopses), according to a report by Falk Hueffner. The fact that the code seems to rely on compiler access ordering through the use of "volatile" is a pretty certain sign that the code has locking problems, and we should fix those properly and then remove the whole "volatile" entirely. But in the meantime, the movement of "volatile" was unintentional, and should be reverted.

Adam has a UPS device which reports LINEV using 32-bits. Added comments to describe the limitations of the code. extract() is the same version I posted earlier and tested in user space. Made similar changes to implement() routine. I've written (and will shortly post) a test for implement(). Code tested on C3600 (parisc) with USB keyboard/mouse attached. I've dropped test_implement.c and a few other user space test programs on http://iou.parisc-linux.org/~grundler/tests/ -rw-r--r-- 1 grundler grundler 1750 Oct 18 09:13 test_extract.c -rw-r--r-- 1 grundler grundler 561 Jan 25 2006 test_ffs.c -rw-r--r-- 1 grundler users 7175 Apr 8 2005 test_fls.c -rw-r--r-- 1 grundler grundler 206 Sep 1 15:52 test_gettimeofday.c -rw-r--r-- 1 grundler grundler 1886 Oct 19 09:20 test_implement.c -rw-r--r-- 1 grundler users 2707 Jun 4 2005 test_unaligned.c I would appreciate if someone else would look at the output of test_implement.c to make it does The Right Thing.

* | | [PATCH] Fix user.* xattr permission check for sticky dirsAndreas Gruenbacher2006-11-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The user.* extended attributes are only allowed on regular files and directories. Sticky directories further restrict write access to the owner and privileged users. (See the attr(5) man page for an explanation.) The original check in ext2/ext3 when user.* xattrs were merged was more restrictive than intended, and when the xattr permission checks were moved into the VFS, read access to user.* attributes on sticky directores ended up being denied in addition.

* | | [PATCH] Fix sys_move_pages when a NULL node list is passedStephen Rothwell2006-11-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sys_move_pages() uses vmalloc() to allocate an array of structures that is fills with information passed from user mode and then passes to do_stat_pages() (in the case the node list is NULL). do_stat_pages() depends on a marker in the node field of the structure to decide how large the array is and this marker is correctly inserted into the last element of the array. However, vmalloc() doesn't zero the memory it allocates and if the user passes NULL for the node list, then the node fields are not filled in (except for the end marker). If the memory the vmalloc() returned happend to have a word with the marker value in it in just the right place, do_pages_stat will fail to fill the status field of part of the array and we will return (random) kernel data to user mode.
