2006-08-27[PATCH] Fix tty layer DoS and comment relevant codeAlan Cox
Unlike the other tty comment patch this one has code changes. Specifically it limits the queue size for a tty to 64K characters (128Kbytes) worst case even if the tty is ignoring tty->throttle. This is because certain drivers don't honour the throttle value correctly, although it is a useful safeguard anyway.

2006-08-27[PATCH] Manage jbd allocations from its own slabsBadari Pulavarty
JBD currently allocates commit and frozen buffers from slabs. With CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG, its possible for an allocation to cross the page boundary causing IO problems. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=200127 So, instead of allocating these from regular slabs - manage allocation from its own slabs and disable slab debug for these slabs.

2006-08-27[PATCH] vcsa attribute bits -> ioctl(VT_GETHIFONTMASK)Samuel Thibault
When reading /dev/vcsa while a font with more than 256 characters is loaded, one of the attribute bits records the 9th bit of the character. But depending on the console driver (vgacon or fbcon for instance), that's bit 3 or bit 0. And there is no way for userland to know that, thus no way for userland to safely grab the screen content. So here is a (tested) patch: Add a VT_GETHIFONTMASK ioctl for knowing which bit is the 9th bit for VC text (vc_hi_font_mask field of the vc_data structure).

Neil Brown observed that the current limit of 32 bytes isn't enough to hold two ip addresses and the rest of the stuff we're putting in it, so it's often truncated to the point where it's unlikely to be unique.

2006-08-13[INET]: Use pskb_trim_unique when trimming paged unique skbsHerbert Xu
The IPv4/IPv6 datagram output path was using skb_trim to trim paged packets because they know that the packet has not been cloned yet (since the packet hasn't been given to anything else in the system). This broke because skb_trim no longer allows paged packets to be trimmed. Paged packets must be given to one of the pskb_trim functions instead. This patch adds a new pskb_trim_unique function to cover the IPv4/IPv6 datagram output path scenario and replaces the corresponding skb_trim calls with it.

It should be possible to suspend, either to RAM or to disk, if there's a traced process that has just reached a breakpoint. However, this is a special case, because its parent process might have been frozen already and then we are unable to deliver the "freeze" signal to the traced process.

This patch adds a new unusual_devs flag for when usb-storage needs to ignore a device that it would otherwise claim. We need to ignore the ZyXEL G220F as it is a virtual CDROM drive which includes the windows driver for this USB-WLAN adapter. After the windows driver is installed on a windows system, it converts it into a WLAN adapter (by ejecting the virtual disc). The virtual CDROM is of no interest to Linux users.

2006-08-02[AF_UNIX]: Kernel memory leak fix for af_unix datagram getpeersec patchCatherine Zhang
From: Catherine Zhang <cxzhang@watson.ibm.com> This patch implements a cleaner fix for the memory leak problem of the original unix datagram getpeersec patch. Instead of creating a security context each time a unix datagram is sent, we only create the security context when the receiver requests it. This new design requires modification of the current unix_getsecpeer_dgram LSM hook and addition of two new hooks, namely, secid_to_secctx and release_secctx. The former retrieves the security context and the latter releases it. A hook is required for releasing the security context because it is up to the security module to decide how that's done. In the case of Selinux, it's a simple kfree operation. Acked-by: Stephen Smalley <sds@tycho.nsa.gov> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
