* spidernet: Fix problem sending IP fragmentsLinas Vepstas2007-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The basic structure of "normal" UDP/IP/Ethernet frames (that actually work): - It starts with the Ethernet header (dest MAC, src MAC, etc.) - The next part is occupied by the IP header (version info, length of packet, id=0, fragment offset=0, checksum, from / to address, etc.) - Then comes the UDP header (src / dest port, length, checksum) - Actual payload - Ethernet checksum Now what's different for IP fragment: - The IP header has id set to some value (same for all fragments), offset is set appropriately (i.e. 0 for first fragment, following according to size of other fragments), size is the length of the frame. - UDP header is unchanged. I.e. length is according to full UDP datagram, not just the part within the actual frame! But this is only true within the first frame: all following frames don't have a valid UDP-header at all. The spidernet silicon seems to be quite intelligent: It's able to compute (IP / UDP / Ethernet) checksums on the fly and tests if frames are conforming to RFC -- at least conforming to RFC on complete frames. But IP fragments are different as explained above: I.e. for IP fragments containing part of a UDP datagram it sees incompatible length in the headers for IP and UDP in the first frame and, thus, skips this frame. But the content *is* correct for IP fragments. For all following frames it finds (most probably) no valid UDP header at all. But this *is* also correct for IP fragments. The Linux IP-stack seems to be clever in this point. It expects the spidernet to calculate the checksum (since the module claims to be able to do so) and marks the skb's for "normal" frames accordingly (ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_HW). But for the IP fragments it does not expect the driver to be capable to handle the frames appropriately. Thus all checksums are allready computed. This is also flaged within the skb (ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_NONE). Unfortunately the spidernet driver ignores that hints. It tries to send the IP fragments of UDP datagrams as normal UDP/IP frames. Since they have different structure the silicon detects them the be not "well-formed" and skips them. The following one-liner against 2.6.21-rc2 changes this behavior. If the IP-stack claims to have done the checksumming, the driver should not try to checksum (and analyze) the frame but send it as is.

| * KVM: Fix off-by-one when writing to a nonpae guest pdeAvi Kivity2007-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nonpae guest pdes are shadowed by two pae ptes, so we double the offset twice: once to account for the pte size difference, and once because we need to shadow pdes for a single guest pde. But when writing to the upper guest pde we also need to truncate the lower bits, otherwise the multiply shifts these bits into the pde index and causes an access to the wrong shadow pde. If we're at the end of the page (accessing the very last guest pde) we can even overflow into the next host page and oops. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
* | [NETLINK]: Don't attach callback to a going-away netlink socketDenis Lunev2007-04-18

Here it is: CPU1: CPU2 netlink_release(): netlink_dump_start(): sk = netlink_lookup(); /* OK */ netlink_remove(); spin_lock(&nlk->cb_lock); if (nlk->cb) { /* false */ ... } spin_unlock(&nlk->cb_lock); spin_lock(&nlk->cb_lock); if (nlk->cb) { /* false */ ... } nlk->cb = cb; spin_unlock(&nlk->cb_lock); ... sock_orphan(sk); /* * proceed with releasing * the socket */ The proposal it to make sock_orphan before detaching the callback in netlink_release() and to check for the sock to be SOCK_DEAD in netlink_dump_start() before setting a new callback.

* | [IrDA]: Correctly handling socket errorOlaf Kirch2007-04-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes an oops first reported in mid 2006 - see http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/29/358 The cause of this bug report is that when an error is signalled on the socket, irda_recvmsg_stream returns without removing a local wait_queue variable from the socket's sk_sleep queue. This causes havoc further down the road. In response to this problem, a patch was made that invoked sock_orphan on the socket when receiving a disconnect indication. This is not a good fix, as this sets sk_sleep to NULL, causing applications sleeping in recvmsg (and other places) to oops. This is against the latest net-2.6 and should be considered for -stable inclusion.

* | [SCTP]: Do not interleave non-fragments when in partial deliveryVlad Yasevich2007-04-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The way partial delivery is currently implemnted, it is possible to intereleave a message (either from another steram, or unordered) that is not part of partial delivery process. The only way to this is for a message to not be a fragment and be 'in order' or unorderd for a given stream. This will result in bypassing the reassembly/ordering queues where things live duing partial delivery, and the message will be delivered to the socket in the middle of partial delivery. This is a two-fold problem, in that: 1. the app now must check the stream-id and flags which it may not be doing. 2. this clearing partial delivery state from the association and results in ulp hanging. This patch is a band-aid over a much bigger problem in that we don't do stream interleave. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In mthca_arbel_fmr_unmap(), the high bits of the key are masked off. This gets rid of the effect of adjust_key(), which makes sure that bits 3 and 23 of the key are equal when the Sinai throughput optimization is enabled, and so it may happen that an FMR will end up with bits 3 and 23 in the key being different. This causes data corruption, because when enabling the throughput optimization, the driver promises the HCA firmware that bits 3 and 23 of all memory keys will always be equal. Fix by re-applying adjust_key() after masking the key. Thanks to Or Gerlitz for reproducing the problem, and Ariel Shahar for help in debug. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch checks for "|" in the pattern not the output and doesn't nail a pid on to a piped name (as it is a program name not a file) Also fixes a very very obscure security corner case. If you happen to have decided on a core pattern that starts with the program name then the user can run a program called "|myevilhack" as it stands. I doubt anyone does this.

Make these direct equality tests and just warn for unsupported relocation types (which should never happen), falling back to native in that case. Thanks to Anthony Liguori for noting this!

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the writebacks are cancelled via nfs_cancel_dirty_list, or due to the memory allocation failing in nfs_flush_one/nfs_flush_multi, then we must ensure that the PG_writeback flag is cleared. Also ensure that we actually own the PG_writeback flag whenever we schedule a new writeback by making nfs_set_page_writeback() return the value of test_set_page_writeback(). The PG_writeback page flag ends up replacing the functionality of the PG_FLUSHING nfs_page flag, so we rip that out too.

This failsafe mechanism was originally introduced in commit 2f7a2a79c3ebb44f8b1b7d9b4fd3a650eb69e544, but looks like the hpet split from time.c lost it again.
