| * | ldm: Silence "ldm_validate_partition_table(): Disk read failed" when booting ↵Nikanth Karthikesan2011-04-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | with "quiet" When the kernel does partition detection, on certain configurations with external fibre channel raid systems (e.g. clariion from EMC) the read would fail. And "ldm_validate_partition_table(): Disk read failed" messages are printed to the console. But the failure to read is not a critical error. Now since the message is flagged as KERN_CRIT, it gets printed even when booting with the "quiet" kernel parameter. Fix it by using KERN_INFO, as the failure to read here is not really an error.

| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As Ben Hutchings discovered [1], the patch for CVE-2011-1017 (buffer overflow in ldm_frag_add) is not sufficient. The original patch in commit c340b1d64000 ("fs/partitions/ldm.c: fix oops caused by corrupted partition table") does not consider that, for subsequent fragments, previously allocated memory is used.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel automatically evaluates partition tables of storage devices. The code for evaluating LDM partitions (in fs/partitions/ldm.c) contains a bug that causes a kernel oops on certain corrupted LDM partitions. A kernel subsystem seems to crash, because, after the oops, the kernel no longer recognizes newly connected storage devices. The patch validates the value of vblk_size.

* block: use struct parsed_partitions *state universally in partition check codeTejun Heo2010-05-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make the following changes to partition check code. * Add ->bdev to struct parsed_partitions. * Introduce read_part_sector() which is a simple wrapper around read_dev_sector() which takes struct parsed_partitions *state instead of @bdev. * For functions which used to take @state and @bdev, drop @bdev. For functions which used to take @bdev, replace it with @state. * While updating, drop superflous checks on NULL state/bdev in ldm.c. This cleans up the API a bit and enables better handling of IO errors during partition check as the generic partition check code now has much better visibility into what went wrong in the low level code paths.

* Fix LDM for new field in the VOL5 VBLK.Anton Altaparmakov2007-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Teach LDM about a new field encountered with Windows Vista. This fixes LDM for people using Vista who have disabled drive letter assignment from one or more volumes. Doing this introduces a so far unknown field in the LDM database in the VOL5 VBLK structure which causes the LDM driver to fail to parse the VBLK structure and hence LDM fails to parse the disk altogether. This patch teaches the driver about this field. Thanks got to Ashton Mills <amills@iinet.com.au> for reporting the problem and working with me on getting it fixed. It is now working for him.

The patch was needed to get a Vista formatted dynamic disk to be recognized and parsed successfully. Thanks go to Chris Teachworth for the report and testing.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-16
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
