2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: driver for next generation TPM chipsLeendert van Doorn
The driver for the next generation of TPM chips version 1.2 including support for interrupts. The Trusted Computing Group has written the TPM Interface Specification (TIS) which defines a common interface for all manufacturer's 1.2 TPM's thus the name tpm_tis.

2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: new 1.2 sysfs filesKylene Jo Hall
Many of the sysfs files were calling the TPM_GetCapability command with array. Since for 1.2 more sysfs files of this type are coming I am generalizing the array so there can be one array and the unique parts can be filled in just before the command is called. This updated version of the patch breaks the multi-value sysfs file into separate files pointed out by Greg. It also addresses the code redundancy and ugliness in the tpm_show_* functions pointed out on another patch by Dave Hansen.

2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: command duration updateKylene Jo Hall
With the TPM 1.2 Specification, each command is classified as short, medium or long and the chip tells you the maximum amount of time for a response to each class of command. This patch provides and array of the classifications and a function to determine how long the response should be waited for. Also, it uses that information in the command processing to determine how long to poll for. The function is exported so the 1.2 driver can use the functionality to determine how long to wait for a DataAvailable interrupt if interrupts are being used.

2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: return chip from tpm_register_hardwareKylene Jo Hall
Changes in the 1.2 TPM Specification make it necessary to update some fields of the chip structure in the initialization function after it is registered with tpm.c thus tpm_register_hardware was modified to return a pointer to the structure. This patch makes that change and the associated changes in tpm_atmel and tpm_nsc. The changes to tpm_infineon will be coming in a patch from Marcel Selhorst.

2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: chip struct updateKylene Jo Hall
To assist with chip management and better support the possibility of having multiple TPMs in the system of the same kind, the struct tpm_vendor_specific member of the tpm_chip was changed from a pointer to an instance. This patch changes that declaration and fixes up all accesses to the structure member except in tpm_infineon which is coming in a patch from Marcel Selhorst.

2006-04-22[PATCH] tpm: spacing cleanupsKylene Jo Hall
The following patch set contains numerous changes to the base tpm driver (tpm.c) to support the next generation of TPM chips. The changes include new sysfs files because of more relevant data being available, a function to access the timeout and duration values for the chip, and changes to make use of those duration values. Duration in the TPM specification is defined as the maximum amount of time the chip could take to return the results. Commands are in one of three categories short, medium and long. Also included are cleanups of how the commands for the sysfs files are composed to reduce a bunch of redundant arrays. This patch: Fix minor spacing issues.

2006-04-19[PATCH] Open IPMI BT overflowHeikki Orsila
I was looking into random driver code and found a suspicious looking memcpy() in drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_bt_sm.c on 2.6.17-rc1: if ((size < 2) || (size > IPMI_MAX_MSG_LENGTH)) return -1; ... memcpy(bt->write_data + 3, data + 1, size - 1); where sizeof bt->write_data is IPMI_MAX_MSG_LENGTH. It looks like the memcpy would overflow by 2 bytes if size == IPMI_MAX_MSG_LENGTH. A patch attached to limit size to (IPMI_MAX_LENGTH - 2).

2006-04-19[PATCH] Fix file lookup without refDipankar Sarma
There are places in the kernel where we look up files in fd tables and access the file structure without holding refereces to the file. So, we need special care to avoid the race between looking up files in the fd table and tearing down of the file in another CPU. Otherwise, one might see a NULL f_dentry or such torn down version of the file. This patch fixes those special places where such a race may happen.

The event handler mechanism in the IPMI driver had a limit on the number of received events, but the counts were not being updated. Update the counts to impose a limit. This is not a critical fix, as this function (the sending of the events) has to be turned on by the user, anyway. This avoids problems if they forget to turn it back off.

2006-04-11[PATCH] ptmx: fix duplicate idr_removePaul Fulghum
Remove duplicate call to idr_remove() in ptmx_open. Error during open can result in call to release_dev() followed by call to idr_remove(). release_dev already calls idr_remove so the second call can cause a stack dump in idr_remove()->sub_remove() flagging an attempt to release an already released entry. I reproduces this on a machine with a misconfigured X server (attempting to restart multiple times rapidly) getting the same error as the 1st link below. This also seems to be related to: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=selinux&m=110536513426735&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=selinux&m=110596994916785&w=2 The stack dump can occur on close (as well as open) as shown in the 1st instance above, possible from something like: process A - open (index=0), open fail to out1, release_dev calls idr_remove (index 0), down(sem) sleeps process B - open (index=0), open OK (idr allocated) process A - wake and call idr_remove on index 0 ... process B - close, release_dev, stack dump on idr_remove (index=0) because entry already removed Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
