* SCTP: Discard OOTB packetes with bundled INIT early.Vlad Yasevich2007-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RFC 4460 and future RFC 4960 (2960-bis) specify that packets with bundled INIT chunks need to be dropped. We currenlty do that only after processing any leading chunks. For OOTB chunks, since we already walk the entire packet, we should discard packets with bundled INITs. There are other chunks chunks that MUST NOT be bundled, but the spec is silent on theire treatment. Thus, we'll leave their teatment alone for the moment.

* SCTP: Clean up OOTB handling and fix infinite loop processingVlad Yasevich2007-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | While processing OOTB chunks as well as chunks with an invalid length of 0, it was possible to SCTP to get wedged inside an infinite loop because we didn't catch the condition correctly, or didn't mark the packet for discard correctly.

* SCTP: Explicitely discard OOTB chunksVlad Yasevich2007-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | Explicitely discard OOTB chunks, whether the result is a SHUTDOWN COMPLETE or an ABORT. We need to discard the OOTB SHUTDOWN ACK to prevent bombing attackes since responsed MUST NOT be bundled. We also explicietely discard in the ABORT case since that function is widely used internally.

* SCTP: Send ABORT chunk with correct tag in response to INIT ACKWei Yongjun2007-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | When SCTP client received an INIT ACK chunk with missing mandatory parameter such as "cookie parameter", it will send back a ABORT with T-bit not set and verification tag is set to 0. This is because before we accept this INIT ACK chunk, we do not know the peer's tag. This patch change to reflect vtag when responding to INIT ACK with missing mandatory parameter.

* SCTP: Validate buffer room when processing sequential chunksVlad Yasevich2007-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | When we process bundled chunks, we need to make sure that the skb has the buffer for each header since we assume it's always there. Some malicious node can send us something like DATA + 2 bytes and we'll try to walk off the end refrencing potentially uninitialized memory. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

However the process of determining whether more read requests are pending requires locking the stripe (to block add_stripe_bio from updating dev->toead). ops_complete_biofill can run in tasklet context, so rather than upgrading all the stripe locks from spin_lock to spin_lock_bh this patch just unconditionally reschedules handle_stripe after completing the read request. 2/ ops_complete_biofill needlessly qualified processing R5_Wantfill with dev->toread. The result being that the 'biofill' pending bit is cleared before handling the pending read-completions on dev->read. R5_Wantfill can be unconditionally handled because the 'biofill' pending bit prevents new R5_Wantfill requests from being seen by ops_run_biofill and ops_complete_biofill.

| * IB/mlx4: Fix data corruption triggered by wrong headroom marking orderJack Morgenstein2007-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is an addendum to commit 0e6e7416 ("IB/mlx4: Handle new FW requirement for send request prefetching"). We also need to handle prefetch marking properly for S/G segments, or else the HCA may end up processing S/G segments that are not fully written and end up sending the wrong data. This can actually cause data corruption in practice, especially on systems with relatively slow CPUs (where the HCA is more likely to prefetch while the CPU is in the middle of writing a work request into memory). We write S/G segments in reverse order into the WQE, in order to guarantee that the first dword of all cachelines containing S/G segments is written last (overwriting the headroom invalidation pattern). The entire cacheline will thus contain valid data when the invalidation pattern is overwritten.

This was actually resolving the problem on the VAIO but was just a stupid workaround, which was not tackling the root cause: the assignement of lower idle C-States in the ACPI processor_idle code. The cpuidle patches, which utilize the dynamic tick feature and go faster into deeper C-states exposed the problem again. The correct solution is the previous patch, which prevents lower C-states across the suspend/resume. Remove the enforcement code, including the conditional broadcast timer arming, which helped to pamper over the real problem for quite a time. The oneshot broadcast flag for the cpu, which runs the resume code can never be set at the time when this code is executed. It only gets set, when the CPU is entering a lower idle C-State.

* | | ACPI: disable lower idle C-states across suspend/resumeThomas Gleixner2007-09-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | device_suspend() calls ACPI suspend functions, which seems to have undesired side effects on lower idle C-states. It took me some time to realize that especially the VAIO BIOSes (both Andrews jinxed UP and my elfstruck SMP one) show this effect. I'm quite sure that other bug reports against suspend/resume about turning the system into a brick have the same root cause. After fishing in the dark for quite some time, I realized that removing the ACPI processor module before suspend (this removes the lower C-state functionality) made the problem disappear. Interestingly enough the propability of having a bricked box is influenced by various factors (interrupts, size of the ram image, ...). Even adding a bunch of printks in the wrong places made the problem go away. The previous periodic tick implementation simply pampered over the problem, which explains why the dyntick / clockevents changes made this more prominent. We avoid complex functionality during the boot process and we have to do the same during suspend/resume. It is a similar scenario and equaly fragile. Add suspend / resume functions to the ACPI processor code and disable the lower idle C-states across suspend/resume. Fall back to the default idle implementation (halt) instead.

But this conflicts with Linux native graphics drivers, and can cause all sorts of issues, including hanging the system. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6001 Here we change the Linux default to evaluate _DOS=0, which tells the BIOS to simply send us a hotkey event and not touch the graphics hardware. The acpi video driver sends the display switch hotkey event up through the intput layer, and X can interpret that and use its native graphics driver to switch the display. For the case where Linux has no native graphics driver running, or the graphics driver doesn't know how to switch video and the BIOS (safely) does, the previous behaviour can be restored with: # echo 1 > /proc/acpi/video/*/DOS Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was broken for file systems whose cluster size is greater than page size. Pos needs to be incremented as we loop through the descriptors, and len needs to be capped to the size of a single cluster. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
| * | | | | ocfs2: Allow smaller allocations during large writesMark Fasheh2007-09-20

Typically it's equal to or larger than page size - most kernels run 4k pages, the minimum ocfs2 allocation (cluster) size. Some changes introduced during 2.6.23 changed the way writes to pages are handled, and inadvertantly broke support for > 4k page size. Instead of just writing one cluster at a time, we now handle the whole page in one pass. This means that multiple (small) seperate allocations might happen in the same pass. The allocation code howver typically optimizes by getting the maximum which was reserved. This triggered a BUG_ON in the extend code where it'd ask for a single bit (for one part of a > 4k page) and get back more than it asked for. Fix this by providing a variant of the high level allocation function which allows the caller to specify a maximum. The traditional function remains and just calls the new one with a maximum determined from the initial reservation. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>
