* [PATCH] Make cpu_relax() imply barrier() on all archesChase Venters2006-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | During the recent discussion of taking 'volatile' off of the spinlock, I noticed that while most arches #define cpu_relax() such that it implies barrier(), some arches define cpu_relax() to be empty. This patch changes the definition of cpu_relax() for frv, h8300, m68knommu, sh, sh64, v850 and xtensa from an empty while(0) to the compiler barrier().

* [PATCH] lockdep: annotate the sysfs i_mutex to be a separate classArjan van de Ven2006-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sysfs has a different i_mutex lock order behavior for i_mutex than the other filesystems; sysfs i_mutex is called in many places with subsystem locks held. At the same time, many of the VFS locking rules do not apply to sysfs at all (cross directory rename for example). To untangle this mess (which gives false positives in lockdep), we're giving sysfs inodes their own class for i_mutex.

* [PATCH] Fix prctl privilege escalation and suid_dumpable (CVE-2006-2451)Marcel Holtmann2006-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on a patch from Ernie Petrides During security research, Red Hat discovered a behavioral flaw in core dump handling. A local user could create a program that would cause a core file to be dumped into a directory they would not normally have permissions to write to. This could lead to a denial of service (disk consumption), or allow the local user to gain root privileges. The prctl() system call should never allow to set "dumpable" to the value 2. Especially not for non-privileged users. This can be split into three cases: 1) running as root -- then core dumps will already be done as root, and so prctl(PR_SET_DUMPABLE, 2) is not useful 2) running as non-root w/setuid-to-root -- this is the debatable case 3) running as non-root w/setuid-to-non-root -- then you definitely do NOT want "dumpable" to get set to 2 because you have the privilege escalation vulnerability With case #2, the only potential usefulness is for a program that has designed to run with higher privilege (than the user invoking it) that wants to be able to create root-owned root-validated core dumps. This might be useful as a debugging aid, but would only be safe if the program had done a chdir() to a safe directory. There is no benefit to a production setuid-to-root utility, because it shouldn't be dumping core in the first place. If this is true, then the same debugging aid could also be accomplished with the "suid_dumpable" sysctl.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. Multipath devices for which SetPGID is not supported are not handled well. Use NOP ccws for path verification (sans path grouping) when SetPGID is not supported. 2. Check for PGIDs already set with SensePGID on _all_ paths (not just the first one) and try to find a common one. Moan if no common PGID can be found (and use NOP verification). If no PGIDs have been set, use the css global PGID (as before). (Rationale: SetPGID will get a command reject if the PGID it tries to set does not match the already set PGID.) 3. Immediately before reboot, issue RESET CHANNEL PATH (rcp) on all chpids. This will remove the old PGIDs. rcp will generate solicited CRWs which can be savely ignored by the machine check handler (all other actions create unsolicited CRWs).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The module parameters for xpram are not or in a wrong way parsed. The xpram module uses the module_param_array directive with an int parameter which causes the kernel to automatically parse the passed numbers. This will cause errors if arguments are omitted or cause wrong results if arguments have size qualifiers. Use module_param_array with charp and parse the arguments later.

* | Add PIIX4 APCI quirk for the 440MX chipset tooLinus Torvalds2006-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is confirmed to fix a hang due to PCI resource conflicts with setting up the Cardbus bridge on old laptops with the 440MX chipsets. Original report by Alessio Sangalli, lspci debugging help by Pekka Enberg, and trial patch suggested by Daniel Ritz: "From the docs available i would _guess_ this thing is really similar to the 82443BX/82371AB combination. at least the SMBus base address register is hidden at the very same place (32bit at 0x90 in function 3 of the "south" brigde)" The dang thing is largely undocumented, but the patch was corroborated by Asit Mallick: "I am trying to find the register information. 440MX is an integration of 440BX north-bridge without AGP and PIIX4E (82371EB). PIIX4 quirk should cover the ACPI and SMBus related I/O registers." and verified to fix the problem by Alessio.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several issues noticed/fixed: - We cannot reliably block in link_pipe() while holding both input and output mutexes. So do preparatory checks before locking down both mutexes and doing the link. - The ipipe->nrbufs vs i check was bad, because we could have dropped the ipipe lock in-between.

Some of the debug data structures are packed by default to minimize size. Added an error message for the case where acpi_os_get_thread_id() returns zero. A non-zero value is required by the core ACPICA code to ensure the proper operation of AML mutexes and recursive control methods. The DSDT is now the only ACPI table that determines whether the AML interpreter is in 32-bit or 64-bit mode. Not really a functional change, but the hooks for per-table 32/64 switching have been removed from the code. A clarification to the ACPI specification is forthcoming in ACPI 3.0B. Fixed a possible leak of an Owner ID in the error path of tbinstal.c acpi_tb_init_table_descriptor() and migrated all table OwnerID deletion to a single place in acpi_tb_uninstall_table() to correct possible leaks when using the acpi_tb_delete_tables_by_type() interface (with assistance from Lance Ortiz.) Fixed a problem with Serialized control methods where the semaphore associated with the method could be over-signaled after multiple method invocations. Fixed two issues with the locking of the internal namespace data structure. Both the Unload() operator and acpi_unload_table() interface now lock the namespace during the namespace deletion associated with the table unload (with assistance from Linn Crosetto.)

Bounce it through the stack.

* | | | | [PATCH] x86_64: Allow oprofile for model P4 modelsAndi Kleen2006-07-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add it for P4 model 6 - reported to work and have a similar PMU to earlier P4s. Add an p4force=1 module override parameter for future use. We had a discussion about that earlier - it's a trade off between the PMU staying compatible or not. I think the force parameter is a reasonable compromise.
