But GCC promotes "remaining" to unsigned in the test against sizeof(*nla) above. Therefore the test succeeds, and the nla_for_each_attr() may access memory outside the received buffer. A short example illustrating this point is here: #include <stdio.h> main(void) { printf("%d\n", -1 >= sizeof(int)); } ...which prints "1". This patch adds a cast in front of the sizeof so that GCC will make a signed comparison and fix the illegal memory dereference. With the patch applied, there is no kmemcheck report.

2008-09-11ath9k: Assign seq# when mac80211 requests thisJouni Malinen
Use TX control flag IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ as a request to update the seq# for the frames. This will likely require some further cleanup to get seq# correctly for Beacons vs. other frames and also potentially for multiple BSSes. Anyway, this is better than ending up sending out most frames with seq# 0. (This is a backport of patch w/ same title already in net-next-2.6. It is verified to fix http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11394 and it should be acceptable for -rc due to the driver being new in 2.6.27.)

2008-09-09[Bluetooth] Reject L2CAP connections on an insecure ACL linkMarcel Holtmann
The Security Mode 4 of the Bluetooth 2.1 specification has strict authentication and encryption requirements. It is the initiators job to create a secure ACL link. However in case of malicious devices, the acceptor has to make sure that the ACL is encrypted before allowing any kind of L2CAP connection. The only exception here is the PSM 1 for the service discovery protocol, because that is allowed to run on an insecure ACL link. Previously it was enough to reject a L2CAP connection during the connection setup phase, but with Bluetooth 2.1 it is forbidden to do any L2CAP protocol exchange on an insecure link (except SDP). The new hci_conn_check_link_mode() function can be used to check the integrity of an ACL link. This functions also takes care of the cases where Security Mode 4 is disabled or one of the devices is based on an older specification. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-09-09[Bluetooth] Enforce correct authentication requirementsMarcel Holtmann
With the introduction of Security Mode 4 and Simple Pairing from the Bluetooth 2.1 specification it became mandatory that the initiator requires authentication and encryption before any L2CAP channel can be established. The only exception here is PSM 1 for the service discovery protocol (SDP). It is meant to be used without any encryption since it contains only public information. This is how Bluetooth 2.0 and before handle connections on PSM 1. For Bluetooth 2.1 devices the pairing procedure differentiates between no bonding, general bonding and dedicated bonding. The L2CAP layer wrongly uses always general bonding when creating new connections, but it should not do this for SDP connections. In this case the authentication requirement should be no bonding and the just-works model should be used, but in case of non-SDP connection it is required to use general bonding. If the new connection requires man-in-the-middle (MITM) protection, it also first wrongly creates an unauthenticated link key and then later on requests an upgrade to an authenticated link key to provide full MITM protection. With Simple Pairing the link key generation is an expensive operation (compared to Bluetooth 2.0 and before) and doing this twice during a connection setup causes a noticeable delay when establishing a new connection. This should be avoided to not regress from the expected Bluetooth 2.0 connection times. The authentication requirements are known up-front and so enforce them. To fulfill these requirements the hci_connect() function has been extended with an authentication requirement parameter that will be stored inside the connection information and can be retrieved by userspace at any time. This allows the correct IO capabilities exchange and results in the expected behavior. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2008-09-09[Bluetooth] Fix reference counting during ACL config stageMarcel Holtmann
The ACL config stage keeps holding a reference count on incoming connections when requesting the extended features. This results in keeping an ACL link up without any users. The problem here is that the Bluetooth specification doesn't define an ownership of the ACL link and thus it can happen that the implementation on the initiator side doesn't care about disconnecting unused links. In this case the acceptor needs to take care of this. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

2008-09-08NFS: Restore missing hunk in NFS mount option parserChuck Lever
Automounter maps can contain mount options valid for other NFS implementations but not for Linux. The Linux automounter uses the mount command's "-s" command line option ("s" for "sloppy") so that mount requests containing such options are not rejected. Commit f45663ce5fb30f76a3414ab3ac69f4dd320e760a attempted to address a known regression with text-based NFS mount option parsing. Unrecognized mount options would cause mount requests to fail, even if the "-s" option was used on the mount command line. Unfortunately, this commit was not complete as submitted. It adds a new mount option, "sloppy". But it is missing a hunk, so it now allows NFS mounts with unrecognized mount options, even if the "sloppy" option is not present. This could be a problem if a required critical mount option such as "sync" is misspelled, for example, and is considered a regression from 2.6.26. This patch restores the missing hunk. Now, the default behavior of text-based NFS mount options is as before: any unrecognized mount option will cause the mount to fail. Please include this in 2.6.27-rc.

2008-09-08bridge: don't allow setting hello time to zeroStephen Hemminger
Dushan Tcholich reports that on his system ksoftirqd can consume between %6 to %10 of cpu time, and cause ~200 context switches per second. He then correlated this with a report by bdupree@techfinesse.com: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=119613299024398&w=2 and the culprit cause seems to be starting the bridge interface. In particular, when starting the bridge interface, his scripts are specifying a hello timer interval of "0". The bridge hello time can't be safely set to values less than 1 second, otherwise it is possible to end up with a runaway timer.

The timewait sockets life cycle is not tied with the network namespace, that means the timewait sockets stay alive while the network namespace dies. The timewait sockets are for avoiding to receive a duplicate packet from the network, if the network namespace is freed, the network stack is removed, so no chance to receive any packets from the outside world. Furthermore, having a pending destruction timer on these sockets with a network namespace freed is not safe and will lead to an oops if the timer callback which try to access data belonging to the namespace like for example in: inet_twdr_do_twkill_work -> NET_INC_STATS_BH(twsk_net(tw), LINUX_MIB_TIMEWAITED); Purging the timewait sockets at the network namespace destruction will: 1) speed up memory freeing for the namespace 2) fix kernel panic on asynchronous timewait destruction Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> Acked-by: Denis V.

2008-09-08ahci, pata_marvell: play nicely togetherAlan Cox
I've been chasing Jeff about this for months. Jeff added the Marvell device identifiers to the ahci driver without making the AHCI driver handle the PATA port. This means a lot of users can't use current kernels and in most distro cases can't even install. This has been going on since March 2008 for the 6121 Marvell, and late 2007 for the 6145!!! This was all pointed out at the time and repeatedly ignored. Bugs assigned to Jeff about this are ignored also. To quote Jeff in email > "Just switch the order of 'ahci' and 'pata_marvell' in > /etc/modprobe.conf, then use Fedora's tools regenerate the initrd. > See? It's not rocket science, and the current configuration can be > easily made to work for Fedora users." (Which isn't trivial, isn't end user, shouldn't be needed, and as it usually breaks at install time is in fact impossible) To quote Jeff in August 2007 > " mv-ahci-pata > Marvell 6121/6141 PATA support. Needs fixing in the 'PATA controller > command' area before it is usable, and can go upstream." Only he add the ids anyway later and caused regressions, adding a further id in March causing more regresions. The actual fix for the moment is very simple. If the user has included the pata_marvell driver let it drive the ports. If they've only selected for SATA support give them the AHCI driver which will run the port a fraction faster. Allow the user to control this decision via ahci.marvell_enable as a module parameter so that distributions can ship 'it works' defaults and smarter users (or config tools) can then flip it over it desired.

simple_strtoul Alexey Dobriyan points out: 1. simple_strtoul() silently accepts all characters for given base even if result won't fit into unsigned long. This is amazing stupidity in itself, but 2. nf_conntrack_irc helper use simple_strtoul() for DCC request parsing. Data first copied into 64KB buffer, so theoretically nothing prevents reading past the end of it, since data comes from network given 1). This is not actually a problem currently since we're guaranteed to have a 0 byte in skb_shared_info or in the buffer the data is copied to, but to make this more robust, make sure the string is actually terminated.

It does "kfree(list_head)" which looks wrong because entity that was allocated is definitely not list_head. However, this all works because list_head is first item in struct nf_ct_gre_keymap.

2008-09-08powerpc/spufs: Fix possible scheduling of a context to multiple SPEsAndre Detsch
We currently have a race when scheduling a context to a SPE - after we have found a runnable context in spusched_tick, the same context may have been scheduled by spu_activate(). This may result in a panic if we try to unschedule a context that has been freed in the meantime. This change exits spu_schedule() if the context has already been scheduled, so we don't end up scheduling it twice.

2008-09-06x86: cpu_init(): fix memory leak when using CPU hotplugAndreas Herrmann
Exception stacks are allocated each time a CPU is set online. But the allocated space is never freed. Thus with one CPU hotplug offline/online cycle there is a memory leak of 24K (6 pages) for a CPU. Fix is to allocate exception stacks only once -- when the CPU is set online for the first time.

2008-09-06sched: arch_reinit_sched_domains() must destroy domains to force rebuildMax Krasnyansky
What I realized recently is that calling rebuild_sched_domains() in arch_reinit_sched_domains() by itself is not enough when cpusets are enabled. partition_sched_domains() code is trying to avoid unnecessary domain rebuilds and will not actually rebuild anything if new domain masks match the old ones. What this means is that doing echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings on a system with cpusets enabled will not take affect untill something changes in the cpuset setup (ie new sets created or deleted). This patch fixes restore correct behaviour where domains must be rebuilt in order to enable MC powersaving flags. Test on quad-core Core2 box with both CONFIG_CPUSETS and !CONFIG_CPUSETS. Also tested on dual-core Core2 laptop. Lockdep is happy and things are working as expected.

2008-09-06x86: move mtrr cpu cap setting early in early_init_xxxxYinghai Lu
Krzysztof Helt found MTRR is not detected on k6-2 root cause: we moved mtrr_bp_init() early for mtrr trimming, and in early_detect we only read the CPU capability from cpuid, so some cpu doesn't have that bit in cpuid. So we need to add early_init_xxxx to preset those bit before mtrr_bp_init for those earlier cpus. this patch is for v2.6.27 Reported-by: Krzysztof Helt <krzysztof.h1@wp.pl> Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yhlu.kernel@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-09-06clocksource, acpi_pm.c: check for monotonicityDominik Brodowski
The current check for monotonicity is way too weak: Andreas Mohr reports ( http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/10/77 ) that on one of his test systems the current check only triggers in 50% of all cases, leading to catastrophic timer behaviour. To fix this issue, expand the check for monotonicity by doing ten consecutive tests instead of one.

2008-09-06clocksource, acpi_pm.c: use proper read function also in errata modeDominik Brodowski
On all hardware (some Intel ICH4, PIIX4 and PIIX4E chipsets) affected by a hardware errata there's about a 4.2% chance that initialization of the ACPI PMTMR fails. On those chipsets, we need to read out the timer value at least three times to get a correct result, for every once in a while (i.e. within a 3 ns window every 69.8 ns) the read returns a bogus result. During normal operation we work around this issue, but during initialization reading a bogus value may lead to -EINVAL even though the hardware is usable. Thanks to Andreas Mohr for spotting this issue.
