* [PATCH] fuse: fix Oops in lookupMiklos Szeredi2006-11-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix bug in certain error paths of lookup routines. The request object was reused for sending FORGET, which is illegal. This bug could cause an Oops in 2.6.18. In earlier versions it might silently corrupt memory, but this is very unlikely. These error paths are never triggered by libfuse, so this wasn't noticed even with the 2.6.18 kernel, only with a filesystem using the raw kernel interface. Thanks to Russ Cox for the bug report and test filesystem.

* [PATCH] hugetlb: prepare_hugepage_range check offset tooHugh Dickins2006-11-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (David:) If hugetlbfs_file_mmap() returns a failure to do_mmap_pgoff() - for example, because the given file offset is not hugepage aligned - then do_mmap_pgoff will go to the unmap_and_free_vma backout path. But at this stage the vma hasn't been marked as hugepage, and the backout path will call unmap_region() on it. That will eventually call down to the non-hugepage version of unmap_page_range(). On ppc64, at least, that will cause serious problems if there are any existing hugepage pagetable entries in the vicinity - for example if there are any other hugepage mappings under the same PUD. unmap_page_range() will trigger a bad_pud() on the hugepage pud entries. I suspect this will also cause bad problems on ia64, though I don't have a machine to test it on. (Hugh:) prepare_hugepage_range() should check file offset alignment when it checks virtual address and length, to stop MAP_FIXED with a bad huge offset from unmapping before it fails further down. PowerPC should apply the same prepare_hugepage_range alignment checks as ia64 and all the others do. Then none of the alignment checks in hugetlbfs_file_mmap are required (nor is the check for too small a mapping); but even so, move up setting of VM_HUGETLB and add a comment to warn of what David Gibson discovered - if hugetlbfs_file_mmap fails before setting it, do_mmap_pgoff's unmap_region when unwinding from error will go the non-huge way, which may cause bad behaviour on architectures (powerpc and ia64) which segregate their huge mappings into a separate region of the address space.

| * [XFS] Prevent a deadlock when xfslogd unpins inodes.David Chinner2006-11-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The previous fixes for the use after free in xfs_iunpin left a nasty log deadlock when xfslogd unpinned the inode and dropped the last reference to the inode. the ->clear_inode() method can issue transactions, and if the log was full, the transaction could push on the log and get stuck trying to push the inode it was currently unpinning. To fix this, we provide xfs_iunpin a guarantee that it will always have a valid xfs_inode <-> linux inode link or a particular flag will be set on the inode. We then use log forces during lookup to ensure transactions are completed before we recycle the inode. This ensures that xfs_iunpin will never use the linux inode after it is being freed, and any lookup on an inode on the reclaim list will wait until it is safe to attach a new linux inode to the xfs inode.

* [PATCH] splice: fix problem introduced with inode dietJens Axboe2006-11-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | After the inode slimming patch that unionised i_pipe/i_bdev/i_cdev, it's no longer enough to check for existance of ->i_pipe to verify that this is a pipe.

| * JFS: Remove redundant xattr permission checkingDave Kleikamp2006-11-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The vfs handles most permissions for setting and retrieving xattrs. This patch removes a redundant and wrong check so that it won't override the correct behavior which is being fixed in the vfs. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@austin.ibm.com>
* | [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] reiserfs: reset errval after initializing bitmap cacheJeff Mahoney2006-11-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Callers after reiserfs_init_bitmap_cache() expect errval to contain -EINVAL until much later. If a condition fails before errval is reset later, reiserfs_fill_super() will mistakenly return 0, causing an Oops in do_add_mount(). This patch resets errval to -EINVAL after the call. I view this as a temporary fix and real error codes should be used throughout reiserfs_fill_super().

* | [PATCH] sys_pselect7 vs compat_sys_pselect7 uaccess error handlingHeiko Carstens2006-11-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 758333458aa719bfc26ec16eafd4ad3a9e96014d fixes the not checked copy_to_user return value of compat_sys_pselect7. I ran into this too because of an old source tree, but my fix would look quite a bit different to Andi's fix. The reason is that the compat function IMHO should behave the very same as the non-compat function if possible. Since sys_pselect7 does not return -EFAULT in this specific case, change the compat code so it behaves like sys_pselect7.
