2008-11-13iwlwifi: remove HT flags from RXON when not in HT anymoreEmmanuel Grumbach
commit 42eb7c644afcdbcd7eac4d862046230856fbf531 upstream. This patch removes the HT flags from RXON when moving from HT to legacy. This avoids keeping those flags set and possibly miss configuring firmware. If we are configured in HT, fat channel: channel 1 above, and move later to legacy channel 11, we need to clear the FAT channel control flags in RXON. If we don't, the firmware will understand this as channel 11 above which is not possible due to regulatory constraints, leading to firmware crash.

commit c90a74bae10dc2a4677d1bd06b6400db229d3e1e upstream This patch disables power save upon association and enables it back after association.

2008-11-13net: unix: fix inflight counting bug in garbage collectorMiklos Szeredi
commit 6209344f5a3795d34b7f2c0061f49802283b6bdd upstream Previously I assumed that the receive queues of candidates don't change during the GC. This is only half true, nothing can be received from the queues (see comment in unix_gc()), but buffers could be added through the other half of the socket pair, which may still have file descriptors referring to it. This can result in inc_inflight_move_tail() erronously increasing the "inflight" counter for a unix socket for which dec_inflight() wasn't previously called. This in turn can trigger the "BUG_ON(total_refs < inflight_refs)" in a later garbage collection run. Fix this by only manipulating the "inflight" counter for sockets which are candidates themselves. Duplicating the file references in unix_attach_fds() is also needed to prevent a socket becoming a candidate for GC while the skb that contains it is not yet queued.

2008-11-13MTD: [NOR] Fix cfi_send_gen_cmd handling of x16 devices in x8 mode (v4)Eric W. Biederman
commit 467622ef2acb01986eab37ef96c3632b3ea35999 upstream For "unlock" cycles to 16bit devices in 8bit compatibility mode we need to use the byte addresses 0xaaa and 0x555. These effectively match the word address 0x555 and 0x2aa, except the latter has its low bit set. Most chips don't care about the value of the 'A-1' pin in x8 mode, but some -- like the ST M29W320D -- do. So we need to be careful to set it where appropriate. cfi_send_gen_cmd is only ever passed addresses where the low byte is 0x00, 0x55 or 0xaa. Of those, only addresses ending 0xaa are affected by this patch, by masking in the extra low bit when the device is known to be in compatibility mode. [dwmw2: Do it only when (cmd_ofs & 0xff) == 0xaa] v4: Fix stupid typo in cfi_build_cmd_addr that failed to compile I'm writing this patch way to late at night. v3: Bring all of the work back into cfi_build_cmd_addr including calling of map_bankwidth(map) and cfi_interleave(cfi) So every caller doesn't need to. v2: Only modified the address if we our device_type is larger than our bus width.

commit f1cd14ae52985634d0389e934eba25b5ecf24565 upstream Date: Thu, 6 Nov 2008 19:41:24 +1100 Subject: md: linear: Fix a division by zero bug for very small arrays. We currently oops with a divide error on starting a linear software raid array consisting of at least two very small (< 500K) devices. The bug is caused by the calculation of the hash table size which tries to compute sector_div(sz, base) with "base" being zero due to the small size of the component devices of the array. Fix this by requiring the hash spacing to be at least one which implies that also "base" is non-zero. This bug has existed since about 2.6.14.

2008-11-13hugetlbfs: handle pages higher order than MAX_ORDERAndy Whitcroft
commit 69d177c2fc702d402b17fdca2190d5a7e3ca55c5 upstream When working with hugepages, hugetlbfs assumes that those hugepages are smaller than MAX_ORDER. Specifically it assumes that the mem_map is contigious and uses that to optimise access to the elements of the mem_map that represent the hugepage. Gigantic pages (such as 16GB pages on powerpc) by definition are of greater order than MAX_ORDER (larger than MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES in size). This means that we can no longer make use of the buddy alloctor guarentees for the contiguity of the mem_map, which ensures that the mem_map is at least contigious for maximmally aligned areas of MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages. This patch adds new mem_map accessors and iterator helpers which handle any discontiguity at MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundaries. It then uses these to implement gigantic page versions of copy_huge_page and clear_huge_page, and to allow follow_hugetlb_page handle gigantic pages.

Still, allow this to be overriden: allow users who want that first 64K of memory to be available to the kernel disable the quirk, via CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW_64K=n.

We paint this bug around with a very broad brush (reserving that 1K on all AMI BIOS systems), as the bug was extremely hard to find and needed several weeks and lots of debugging and patching. The bug was found via the CONFIG_X86_CHECK_BIOS_CORRUPTION=y debug feature, if similar bugs are suspected then this feature can be enabled on other systems as well to scan low memory for corrupted memory.

2008-11-13ext3: wait on all pending commits in ext3_sync_fsArthur Jones
commit c87591b719737b4e91eb1a9fa8fd55a4ff1886d6 upstream In ext3_sync_fs, we only wait for a commit to finish if we started it, but there may be one already in progress which will not be synced. In the case of a data=ordered umount with pending long symlinks which are delayed due to a long list of other I/O on the backing block device, this causes the buffer associated with the long symlinks to not be moved to the inode dirty list in the second phase of fsync_super. Then, before they can be dirtied again, kjournald exits, seeing the UMOUNT flag and the dirty pages are never written to the backing block device, causing long symlink corruption and exposing new or previously freed block data to userspace. This can be reproduced with a script created by Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>: #!/bin/bash umount /mnt/test2 mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt/test2 rm -f /mnt/test2/* dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test2/bigfile bs=1M count=512 touch /mnt/test2/thisisveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryverylongfilename ln -s /mnt/test2/thisisveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryveryverylongfilename /mnt/test2/link umount /mnt/test2 mount /dev/sdb4 /mnt/test2 ls /mnt/test2/ umount /mnt/test2 To ensure all commits are synced, we flush all journal commits now when sync_fs'ing ext3.

2008-11-07net: Fix recursive descent in __scm_destroy().David Miller
commit f8d570a4745835f2238a33b537218a1bb03fc671 and 3b53fbf4314594fa04544b02b2fc6e607912da18 upstream (because once wasn't good enough...) __scm_destroy() walks the list of file descriptors in the scm_fp_list pointed to by the scm_cookie argument. Those, in turn, can close sockets and invoke __scm_destroy() again. There is nothing which limits how deeply this can occur. The idea for how to fix this is from Linus. Basically, we do all of the fput()s at the top level by collecting all of the scm_fp_list objects hit by an fput(). Inside of the initial __scm_destroy() we keep running the list until it is empty.

2008-11-06file caps: always start with clear bprm->caps_*Serge Hallyn
commit 3318a386e4ca68c76e0294363d29bdc46fcad670 upstream While Linux doesn't honor setuid on scripts. However, it mistakenly behaves differently for file capabilities. This patch fixes that behavior by making sure that get_file_caps() begins with empty bprm->caps_*. That way when a script is loaded, its bprm->caps_* may be filled when binfmt_misc calls prepare_binprm(), but they will be cleared again when binfmt_elf calls prepare_binprm() next to read the interpreter's file capabilities.

2008-11-06bonding: fix panic when taking bond interface down before removing moduleAndy Gospodarek
commit ce39a800ea87c655de49af021c8b20ee323cb40d upstream. A panic was discovered with bonding when using mode 5 or 6 and trying to remove the slaves from the bond after the interface was taken down. When calling 'ifconfig bond0 down' the following happens: bond_close() bond_alb_deinitialize() tlb_deinitialize() kfree(bond_info->tx_hashtbl) bond_info->tx_hashtbl = NULL Unfortunately if there are still slaves in the bond, when removing the module the following happens: bonding_exit() bond_free_all() bond_release_all() bond_alb_deinit_slave() tlb_clear_slave() tx_hash_table = BOND_ALB_INFO(bond).tx_hashtbl u32 next_index = tx_hash_table[index].next As you might guess we panic when trying to access a few entries into the table that no longer exists. I experimented with several options (like moving the calls to tlb_deinitialize somewhere else), but it really makes the most sense to be part of the bond_close routine. It also didn't seem logical move tlb_clear_slave around too much, so the simplest option seems to add a check in tlb_clear_slave to make sure we haven't already wiped the tx_hashtbl away before searching for all the non-existent hash-table entries that used to point to the slave as the output interface.

2008-11-06hfsplus: fix Buffer overflow with a corrupted imageEric Sesterhenn
commit efc7ffcb4237f8cb9938909041c4ed38f6e1bf40 upstream When an hfsplus image gets corrupted it might happen that the catalog namelength field gets b0rked. If we mount such an image the memcpy() in hfsplus_cat_build_key_uni() writes more than the 255 that fit in the name field.

commit a68823ee5285e65b51ceb96f8b13a5b4f99a6888 upstream. ACPI: Clear WAK_STS on resume The leading other brand OS appears to clear the WAK_STS flag on resume. When rebooted, certain BIOSes assume that the system is actually resuming if it's still set and so fail to reboot correctly. Make sure that it's cleared at resume time.

2008-11-06ACPI: Ingore the RESET_REG_SUP bit when using ACPI reset mechanismZhao Yakui
commit 8fd145917fb62368a9b80db59562c20576238f5a upstream ACPI: Ingore the RESET_REG_SUP bit when using ACPI reset mechanism According to ACPI 3.0, FADT.flags.RESET_REG_SUP indicates whether the ACPI reboot mechanism is supported. However, some boxes have this bit clear, have a valid ACPI_RESET_REG & RESET_VALUE, and ACPI reboot is the only mechanism that works for them after S3. This suggests that other operating systems may not be checking the RESET_REG_SUP bit, and are using other means to decide whether to use the ACPI reboot mechanism or not. Here we stop checking RESET_REG_SUP. Instead, When acpi reboot is requested, only the reset_register is checked. If the following conditions are met, it indicates that the reset register is supported. a. reset_register is not zero b. the access width is eight c. the bit_offset is zero http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7299 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1148 Signed-off-by: Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Cc: Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

commit 7c6db4e050601f359081fde418ca6dc4fc2d0011 upstream. It is easier and faster to do transaction directly from interrupt context rather than waking control thread. Also, cleaner GPE storm avoidance is implemented.

2008-11-06sata_nv: fix generic, nf2/3 detection regressionTejun Heo
commit 3c324283e6cdb79210cf7975c3e40d3ba3e672b2 upstream All three flavors of sata_nv's are different in how their hardreset behaves. * generic: Hardreset is not reliable. Link often doesn't come online after hardreset. * nf2/3: A little bit better - link comes online with longer debounce timing. However, nf2/3 can't reliable wait for the first D2H Register FIS, so it can't wait for device readiness or classify the device after hardreset. Follow-up SRST required. * ck804: Hardreset finally works. The core layer change to prefer hardreset and follow up changes exposed the above issues and caused various detection regressions for all three flavors. This patch, hopefully, fixes all the known issues and should make sata_nv error handling more reliable.

2008-11-06sata_promise: add ATA engine reset to reset opsMikael Pettersson
commit cadef677e4a9b9c1d069675043767df486782986 upstream Promise ATA engines need to be reset when errors occur. That's currently done for errors detected by sata_promise itself, but it's not done for errors like timeouts detected outside of the low-level driver. The effect of this omission is that a timeout tends to result in a sequence of failed COMRESETs after which libata EH gives up and disables the port. At that point the port's ATA engine hangs and even reloading the driver will not resume it. To fix this, make sata_promise override ->hardreset on SATA ports with code which calls pdc_reset_port() on the port in question before calling libata's hardreset. PATA ports don't use ->hardreset, so for those we override ->softreset instead.

2008-11-06x86: register a platform RTC device if PNP doesn't describe itBjorn Helgaas
commit 758a7f7bb86b520aadc484f23da85e547b3bf3d8 upstream x86: register a platform RTC device if PNP doesn't describe it Most if not all x86 platforms have an RTC device, but sometimes the RTC is not exposed as a PNP0b00/PNP0b01/PNP0b02 device in PNPBIOS or ACPI: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11580 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=451188 It's best if we can discover the RTC via PNP because then we know which flavor of device it is, where it lives, and which IRQ it uses. But if we can't, we should register a platform device using the compiled-in RTC_PORT/RTC_IRQ resource assumptions. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Acked-by: Rafael J.
