Fixed a problem with the internal Owner ID allocation and deallocation mechanisms for control method execution and recursive method invocation. This should eliminate the OWNER_ID_LIMIT exceptions and "Invalid OwnerId" messages seen on some systems. Recursive method invocation depth is currently limited to 255. (Alexey Starikovskiy) http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4892 Completely eliminated all vestiges of support for the "module-level executable code" until this support is fully implemented and debugged. This should eliminate the NO_RETURN_VALUE exceptions seen during table load on some systems that invoke this support. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5162 Fixed a problem within the resource manager code where the transaction flags for a 64-bit address descriptor were handled incorrectly in the type-specific flag byte. Consolidated duplicate code within the address descriptor resource manager code, reducing overall subsystem code size.

Implemented a full bytewise compare to determine if a table load request is attempting to load a duplicate table. The compare is performed if the table signatures and table lengths match. This will allow different tables with the same OEM Table ID and revision to be loaded. Although the BIOS is technically violating the ACPI spec when this happens -- it does happen -- so Linux must handle it.

2005-08-29[PATCH] mod_devicetable.h fixesAl Viro
* ieee1394_device_id has kernel_ulong_t field after an odd number of __u32 ones. Since mod_devicetable.h is included both from kernel and from host build helper, we may be in trouble if we are building on 32bit host for 64bit target - userland sees unsigned long long, kernel sees unsigned long and while their sizes match, alignments might not. Fixed by forcing alignment. Fortunately, almost nobody else needs that - the rest of such fields is naturally aligned as it is. * of_device_id has void * in it. Host userland helpers need kernel_ulong_t instead, since their void * might have nothing to do with the kernel one. Fixed in the same way it's done for similar problems in pcmcia_device_id (ifdef __KERNEL__). * pcmcia_device_id has the same problem as ieee1394_device_id. Fixed the same way.

2005-08-29[PATCH] convert signal handling of NODEFER to act like other Unix boxes.Steven Rostedt
It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it. I've written a program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes, confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled. The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows: 1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked. 2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_ NetBSD 2.0 *). The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux: 1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this). 2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being handled is not blocked. The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to the way most Unix boxes work. Unix boxes that were tested: DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU 3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX. * NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like Linux. So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that behaves differently here with #2.

2005-08-27[PATCH] Remove race between con_open and con_closePaul Mackerras
[ Same race and same patch also by Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> ] I have a laptop (G3 powerbook) which will pretty reliably hit a race between con_open and con_close late in the boot process and oops in vt_ioctl due to tty->driver_data being NULL. What happens is this: process A opens /dev/tty6; it comes into con_open() (drivers/char/vt.c) and assign a non-NULL value to tty->driver_data. Then process A closes that and concurrently process B opens /dev/tty6. Process A gets through con_close() and clears tty->driver_data, since tty->count == 1. However, before process A can decrement tty->count, we switch to process B (e.g. at the down(&tty_sem) call at drivers/char/tty_io.c line 1626). So process B gets to run and comes into con_open with tty->count == 2, as tty->count is incremented (in init_dev) before con_open is called. Because tty->count != 1, we don't set tty->driver_data. Then when the process tries to do anything with that fd, it oopses. The simple and effective fix for this is to test tty->driver_data rather than tty->count in con_open. The testing and setting of tty->driver_data is serialized with respect to the clearing of tty->driver_data in con_close by the console_sem. We can't get a situation where con_open sees tty->driver_data != NULL and then con_close on a different fd clears tty->driver_data, because tty->count is incremented before con_open is called. Thus this patch eliminates the race, and in fact with this patch my laptop doesn't oops.

2005-08-27[PATCH] sg.c: fix a memory leak in devices seq_file implementationJan Blunck
I know that scsi procfs is legacy code but this is a fix for a memory leak. While reading through sg.c I realized that the implementation of /proc/scsi/sg/devices with seq_file is leaking memory due to freeing the pointer returned by the next() iterator method. Since next() might return NULL or an error this is wrong. This patch fixes it through using the seq_files private field for holding the reference to the iterator object. Here is a small bash script to trigger the leak. Use slabtop to watch the size-32 usage grow and grow. #!/bin/sh while true; do cat /proc/scsi/sg/devices > /dev/null done Signed-off-by: Jan Blunck <j.blunck@tu-harburg.de> Acked-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@steeleye.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-08-27[PATCH] mmaper_kern.c fixes [buffer overruns]Al Viro
- copy_from_user() can fail; ->write() must check its return value. - severe buffer overruns both in ->read() and ->write() - lseek to the end (i.e. to mmapper_size) and if (count + *ppos > mmapper_size) count = count + *ppos - mmapper_size; will do absolutely nothing. Then it will call copy_to_user(buf,&v_buf[*ppos],count); with obvious results (similar for ->write()). Fixed by turning read to simple_read_from_buffer() and by doing normal limiting of count in ->write(). - gratitious lock_kernel() in ->mmap() - it's useless there. - lots of gratuitous includes.

Add SRQ support to userspace verbs module. This adds several commands and associated structures, but it's OK to do this without bumping the ABI version because the commands are added at the end of the list so they don't change the existing numbering. There are two cases to worry about: 1. New kernel, old userspace. This is OK because old userspace simply won't try to use the new SRQ commands. None of the old commands are changed. 2. Old kernel, new userspace. This works perfectly as long as userspace doesn't try to use SRQ commands. If userspace tries to use SRQ commands, it will get EINVAL, which is perfectly reasonable: the kernel doesn't support SRQs, so we couldn't do any better.
