[NETLINK]: Fix unicast timeouts

2007-11-13T11:23:22Z

[ Upstream commit: c3d8d1e30cace31fed6186a4b8c6b1401836d89c ] Commit ed6dcf4a in the history.git tree broke netlink_unicast timeouts by moving the schedule_timeout() call to a new function that doesn't propagate the remaining timeout back to the caller. This means on each retry we start with the full timeout again. ipc/mqueue.c seems to actually want to wait indefinitely so this behaviour is retained.

[IA64] fix ia64 is_hugepage_only_range

2007-10-28T20:40:41Z

fix is_hugepage_only_range() definition to be "overlaps" instead of "within architectural restricted hugetlb address range". Simplify the ia64 specific code that used to use is_hugepage_only_range() to just check which region the address is in. Signed-off-by: Ken Chen Signed-off-by: Tony Luck Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk

alpha: fix epoll syscall enumerations

2007-10-18T19:30:46Z

We went and named them __NR_sys_foo instead of __NR_foo. It may be too late to change this, but we can at least add the proper names now. Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk

[PKT_SCHED] RED: Fix overflow in calculation of queue average

2007-10-18T15:56:27Z

Overflow can occur very easily with 32 bits, e.g., with 1 second us_idle is approx. 2^20, which leaves only 11-Wlog bits for queue length. Since the EWMA exponent is typically around 9, queue lengths larger than 2^2 cause overflow. Whether the affected branch is taken when us_idle is as high as 1 second, depends on Scell_log, but with rather reasonable configuration Scell_log is large enough to cause p->Stab to have zero index, which always results zero shift (typically also few other small indices result in zero shift).

sysfs: store sysfs inode nrs in s_ino to avoid readdir oopses (CVE-2007-3104)

2007-10-06T22:52:10Z

Backport of ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.22-rc1/2.6.22-rc1-mm1/broken-out/gregkh-driver-sysfs-allocate-inode-number-using-ida.patch For regular files in sysfs, sysfs_readdir wants to traverse sysfs_dirent->s_dentry->d_inode->i_ino to get to the inode number. But, the dentry can be reclaimed under memory pressure, and there is no synchronization with readdir. This patch follows Tejun's scheme of allocating and storing an inode number in the new s_ino member of a sysfs_dirent, when dirents are created, and retrieving it from there for readdir, so that the pointer chain doesn't have to be traversed. Tejun's upstream patch uses a new-ish "ida" allocator which brings along some extra complexity; this -stable patch has a brain-dead incrementing counter which does not guarantee uniqueness, but because sysfs doesn't hash inodes as iunique expects, uniqueness wasn't guaranteed today anyway.
