Reply to NETLINK_FIB_LOOKUP messages were misrouted back to kernel,
which resulted in infinite recursion and stack overflow.
The bug is present in all kernel versions since the feature appeared.
The patch also makes some minimal cleanup:
1. Return something consistent (-ENOENT) when fib table is missing
2. Do not crash when queue is empty (does not happen, but yet)
3. Put result of lookup

This patch fixes a possible race that leads to double freeing an idr index.
When the master begin to close, release_dev() is called and then
pty_close() is called:
if (tty->driver->close)
tty->driver->close(tty, filp);
This is done without helding any locks other than BKL. Inside pty_close(),
being a master close, the devpts entry will be removed:
#ifdef CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS
if (tty->driver == ptm_driver)
devpts_pty_kill(tty->index);
#endif
But devpts_pty_kill() will call get_node() that may sleep while waiting for
&devpts_root->d_inode->i_sem. When this happens and the slave is being
opened, tty_open() just found the driver and index:
driver = get_tty_driver(device, &index);
if (!driver) {
mutex_unlock(&tty_mutex);
return -ENODEV;
}
This part of the code is already protected under tty_mute. The problem is
that the slave close already got an index. Then init_dev() is called and
blocks waiting for the same &devpts_root->d_inode->i_sem.
When the master close resumes, it removes the devpts entry, and the
relation between idr index and the tty is gone. The master then sleeps
waiting for the tty_mutex on release_dev().
Slave open resumes and found no tty for that index. As result, a NULL tty
is returned and init_dev() doesn't flow to fast_track:
/* check whether we're reopening an existing tty */
if (driver->flags & TTY_DRIVER_DEVPTS_MEM) {
tty = devpts_get_tty(idx);
if (tty && driver->subtype == PTY_TYPE_MASTER)
tty = tty->link;
} else {
tty = driver->ttys[idx];
}
if (tty) goto fast_track;
The result of this, is that a new tty will be created and init_dev() returns
sucessfull. After returning, tty_mutex is dropped and master close may resume.
Master close finds it's the only use and both sides are closing, then releases
the tty and the index. At this point, the idr index is free, but slave still
has it.
Slave open then calls pty_open() and finds that tty->link->count is 0,
because there's no master and returns error. Then tty_open() calls
release_dev() which executes without any warning, as it was a case of last
slave close when the master is already closed (master->count == 0,
slave->count == 1). The tty is then released with the already released idr
index.
This normally would only issue a warning on idr_remove() but in case of a
customer's critical application, it's never too simple:
thread1: opens master, gets index X
thread1: begin closing master
thread2: begin opening slave with index X
thread1: finishes closing master, index X released
thread3: opens master, gets index X, just released
thread2: fails opening slave, releases index X <----
thread4: opens master, gets index X, init_dev() then find an already in use
and healthy tty and fails
If no more indexes are released, ptmx_open() will keep failing, as the
first free index available is X, and it will make init_dev() fail because
you're trying to "reopen a master" which isn't valid.
The patch notices when this race happens and make init_dev() fail
imediately. The init_dev() function is called with tty_mutex held, so it's
safe to continue with tty till the end of function because release_dev()
won't make any further changes without grabbing the tty_mutex.
Without the patch, on some machines it's possible get easily idr warnings
like this one:
idr_remove called for id=15 which is not allocated.

A flag was recently added to the elevator code to avoid
performing an unplug when reuests are being re-queued.
The goal of this flag was to avoid a deep recursion that
can occur when re-queueing requests after a SCSI device/host
reset. See http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/5/17/254
However, that fix added the flag near the bottom of a case
statement, where an earlier break (in an if statement) could
transport one out of the case, without setting the flag.
This patch sets the flag earlier in the case statement.
I re-discovered the deep recursion recently during testing;
I was told that it was a known problem, and the fix to it was
in the kernel I was testing. Indeed it was ... but it didn't
fix the bug. With the patch below, I no longer see the bug.

The calls made by parse_parms to other initialization code might enable
interrupts again way too early.
Having interrupts on this early can make systems PANIC when they initialize
the IRQ controllers (which happens later in the code). This patch detects
that irq's are enabled again, barfs about it and disables them again as a
safety net.

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.

Users have been complaining about the w83627ehf driver flooding their logs
with debug messages like:
w83627ehf 9191-0a10: Increasing fan 4 clock divider from 64 to 128
or:
w83627ehf 9191-0290: Increasing fan 4 clock divider from 4 to 8
The reason is that we failed to actually write the LSB of the encoded clock
divider value for that fan, causing the next read to report the same old value
again and again.
Additionally, the fan number was improperly reported, making the bug harder to
find.

There are several IOMMU allocator bugs. Instead of trying to fix this
overly complicated code, just mirror the PCI IOMMU arena allocator
which is very stable and well stress tested.
I tried to make the code as identical as possible so we can switch
sun4u PCI and SBUS over to a common piece of IOMMU code. All that
will be need are two callbacks, one to do a full IOMMU flush and one
to do a streaming buffer flush.
This patch gets rid of a lot of hangs and mysterious crashes on SBUS
sparc64 systems, at least for me.

The __copy_to_user_inatomic() calls in file_read_actor() and pipe_read()
are broken on original i386 machines, where WP-works-ok == false, as
__copy_to_user_inatomic() on such systems calls functions which might
sleep and/or contain cond_resched() calls inside of a kmap_atomic()
region.
The original check for WP-works-ok was in access_ok(), but got moved
during the 2.5 series to fix a race vs. swap.
Return the number of bytes to copy in the case where we are in an atomic
region, so the non atomic code pathes in file_read_actor() and
pipe_read() are taken.
This could be optimized to avoid the kmap_atomicby moving the check for
WP-works-ok into fault_in_pages_writeable(), but this is more intrusive
and can be done later.

When we receive an AppleTalk frame shorter than what its header says,
we still attempt to verify its checksum, and trip on the BUG_ON() at
the end of function atalk_sum_skb() because of the length mismatch.
This has security implications because this can be triggered by simply
sending a specially crafted ethernet frame to a target victim,
effectively crashing that host. Thus this qualifies, I think, as a
remote DoS. Here is the frame I used to trigger the crash, in npg
format:
<Appletalk Killer>
{
# Ethernet header -----
XX XX XX XX XX XX # Destination MAC
00 00 00 00 00 00 # Source MAC
00 1D # Length
# LLC header -----
AA AA 03
08 00 07 80 9B # Appletalk
# Appletalk header -----
00 1B # Packet length (invalid)
00 01 # Fake checksum
00 00 00 00 # Destination and source networks
00 00 00 00 # Destination and source nodes and ports
# Payload -----
0C 0D 0E 0F 10 11 12 13
14
}
The destination MAC address must be set to those of the victim.
The severity is mitigated by two requirements:
* The target host must have the appletalk kernel module loaded. I
suspect this isn't so frequent.
* AppleTalk frames are non-IP, thus I guess they can only travel on
local networks. I am no network expert though, maybe it is possible
to somehow encapsulate AppleTalk packets over IP.
The bug has been reported back in June 2004:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2979
But it wasn't investigated, and was closed in July 2006 as both
reporters had vanished meanwhile.
This code was new in kernel 2.6.0-test5:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=7ab442d7e0a76402c12553ee256f756097cae2d2
And not modified since then, so we can assume that vanilla kernels
2.6.0-test5 and later, and distribution kernels based thereon, are
affected.
Note that I still do not know for sure what triggered the bug in the
real-world cases. The frame could have been corrupted by the kernel if
we have a bug hiding somewhere. But more likely, we are receiving the
faulty frame from the network.

Frank v. Waveren pointed out that on 64bit machines the timespec to
ktime_t conversion might overflow. This is also true for timeval to
time_t conversions. This breaks a "sleep inf" on 64bit machines.
While a timespec/timeval with tx.sec = MAX_LONG is valid by specification
the internal representation of ktime_t is based on nanoseconds. The
conversion of seconds to nanoseconds overflows for seconds values >=
(MAX_LONG / NSEC_PER_SEC).
Check the seconds argument to the conversion and limit it to the maximum
time which can be represented by ktime_t.
