2009-07-12personality: fix PER_CLEAR_ON_SETIDJulien Tinnes
We have found that the current PER_CLEAR_ON_SETID mask on Linux doesn't include neither ADDR_COMPAT_LAYOUT, nor MMAP_PAGE_ZERO. The current mask is READ_IMPLIES_EXEC|ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE. We believe it is important to add MMAP_PAGE_ZERO, because by using this personality it is possible to have the first page mapped inside a process running as setuid root. This could be used in those scenarios: - Exploiting a NULL pointer dereference issue in a setuid root binary - Bypassing the mmap_min_addr restrictions of the Linux kernel: by running a setuid binary that would drop privileges before giving us control back (for instance by loading a user-supplied library), we could get the first page mapped in a process we control. By further using mremap and mprotect on this mapping, we can then completely bypass the mmap_min_addr restrictions. Less importantly, we believe ADDR_COMPAT_LAYOUT should also be added since on x86 32bits it will in practice disable most of the address space layout randomization (only the stack will remain randomized).

Optimize cond_resched() by removing one conditional. Currently cond_resched() checks system_state == SYSTEM_RUNNING in order to avoid scheduling before the scheduler is running.

Pull the initial preempt_count value into a single definition site. Maintainers for: alpha, ia64 and m68k, please have a look, your arch code is funny. The header magic is a bit odd, but similar to the KERNEL_DS one, CPP waits with expanding these macros until the INIT_THREAD_INFO macro itself is expanded, which is in arch/*/kernel/init_task.c where we've already included sched.h so we're good.

2009-07-10block: fix sg SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV regressionFUJITA Tomonori
I overlooked SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV support when I converted sg to use the block layer mapping API (2.6.28). Douglas Gilbert explained SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37135.html = The semantics of SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV were: - copy user space buffer to kernel (LLD) buffer - do SCSI command which is assumed to be of the DATA_IN (data from device) variety. This would overwrite some or all of the kernel buffer - copy kernel (LLD) buffer back to the user space. The idea was to detect short reads by filling the original user space buffer with some marker bytes ("0xec" it would seem in this report). The "resid" value is a better way of detecting short reads but that was only added this century and requires co-operation from the LLD. = This patch changes the block layer mapping API to support this semantics. This simply adds another field to struct rq_map_data and enables __bio_copy_iov() to copy data from user space even with READ requests. It's better to add the flags field and kills null_mapped and the new from_user fields in struct rq_map_data but that approach makes it difficult to send this patch to stable trees because st and osst drivers use struct rq_map_data (they were converted to use the block layer in 2.6.29 and 2.6.30). Well, I should clean up the block layer mapping API. zhou sf reported this regiression and tested this patch: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37128.html http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37168.html Reported-by: zhou sf <sxzzsf@gmail.com> Tested-by: zhou sf <sxzzsf@gmail.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2009-07-09net: adding memory barrier to the poll and receive callbacksJiri Olsa
Adding memory barrier after the poll_wait function, paired with receive callbacks. Adding fuctions sock_poll_wait and sk_has_sleeper to wrap the memory barrier. Without the memory barrier, following race can happen. The race fires, when following code paths meet, and the tp->rcv_nxt and __add_wait_queue updates stay in CPU caches. CPU1 CPU2 sys_select receive packet ... ... __add_wait_queue update tp->rcv_nxt ... ... tp->rcv_nxt check sock_def_readable ... { schedule ... if (sk->sk_sleep && waitqueue_active(sk->sk_sleep)) wake_up_interruptible(sk->sk_sleep) ... } If there was no cache the code would work ok, since the wait_queue and rcv_nxt are opposit to each other. Meaning that once tp->rcv_nxt is updated by CPU2, the CPU1 either already passed the tp->rcv_nxt check and sleeps, or will get the new value for tp->rcv_nxt and will return with new data mask. In both cases the process (CPU1) is being added to the wait queue, so the waitqueue_active (CPU2) call cannot miss and will wake up CPU1. The bad case is when the __add_wait_queue changes done by CPU1 stay in its cache, and so does the tp->rcv_nxt update on CPU2 side. The CPU1 will then endup calling schedule and sleep forever if there are no more data on the socket.

2009-07-06elf: fix multithreaded program core dumping on armHui Zhu
Fix the multithread program core thread message error. This issue affects arches with neither has CORE_DUMP_USE_REGSET nor ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS, ARM is one of them. The thread message of core file is generated in elf_dump_thread_status. The register values is set by elf_core_copy_task_regs in this function. If an arch doesn't define ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS, elf_core_copy_task_regs() will do nothing. Then the core file will not have the register message of thread. So add elf_core_copy_regs to set regiser values if ELF_CORE_COPY_TASK_REGS doesn't define. The following is how to reproduce this issue: cat 1.c #include <stdio.h> #include <pthread.h> #include <assert.h> void td1(void * i) { while (1) { printf ("1\n"); sleep (1); } return; } void td2(void * i) { while (1) { printf ("2\n"); sleep (1); } return; } int main(int argc,char *argv[],char *envp[]) { pthread_t t1,t2; pthread_create(&t1, NULL, (void*)td1, NULL); pthread_create(&t2, NULL, (void*)td2, NULL); sleep (10); assert(0); return (0); } arm-xxx-gcc -g -lpthread 1.c -o 1 copy 1.c and 1 to a arm board.

2009-07-01block: get rid of queue-private command filterJens Axboe
The initial patches to support this through sysfs export were broken and have been if 0'ed out in any release. So lets just kill the code and reclaim some space in struct request_queue, if anyone would later like to fixup the sysfs bits, the git history can easily restore the removed bits.

2009-07-01block: Create bip slabs with embedded integrity vectorsMartin K. Petersen
This patch restores stacking ability to the block layer integrity infrastructure by creating a set of dedicated bip slabs. Each bip slab has an embedded bio_vec array at the end. This cuts down on memory allocations and also simplifies the code compared to the original bvec version. Only the largest bip slab is backed by a mempool. The pool is contained in the bio_set so stacking drivers can ensure forward progress. Signed-off-by: Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@carl.(none)>

2009-06-30fbdev: add mutex for fb_mmap lockingKrzysztof Helt
Add a mutex to avoid a circular locking problem between the mm layer semaphore and fbdev ioctl mutex through the fb_mmap() call. Also, add mutex to all places where smem_start and smem_len fields change so the mutex inside the fb_mmap() is actually used. Changing of these fields before calling the framebuffer_register() are not mutexed. This is 2.6.31 material. It removes one lockdep (fb_mmap() and register_framebuffer()) but there is still another one (fb_release() and register_framebuffer()). It also cleans up handling of the smem_start and smem_len fields used by mutexed section of the fb_mmap().

2009-06-30spi: add spi_master flag wordDavid Brownell
Add a new spi_master.flags word listing constraints relevant to that controller. Define the first constraint bit: a half duplex restriction. Include that constraint in the OMAP1 MicroWire controller driver. Have the mmc_spi host be the first customer of this flag. Its coding relies heavily on full duplex transfers, so it must fail when the underlying controller driver won't perform them. (The spi_write_then_read routine could use it too: use the temporarily-withdrawn full-duplex speedup unless this flag is set, in which case the existing code applies. Similarly, any spi_master implementing only SPI_3WIRE should set the flag.)

2009-06-30spi: new spi->mode bitsDavid Brownell
Add two new spi_device.mode bits to accomodate more protocol options, and pass them through to usermode drivers: * SPI_NO_CS ... a second 3-wire variant, where the chipselect line is removed instead of a data line; transfers are still full duplex. This obviously has STRONG protocol implications since the chipselect transitions can't be used to synchronize state transitions with the SPI master. * SPI_READY ... defines open drain signal that's pulled low to pause the clock. This defines a 5-wire variant (normal 4-wire SPI plus READY) and two 4-wire variants (READY plus each of the 3-wire flavors). Such hardware flow control can be a big win. There are ADC converters and flash chips that expose READY signals, but not many host controllers support it today. The spi_bitbang code should be changed to use SPI_NO_CS instead of its current nonportable hack. That's a mode most hardware can easily support (unlike SPI_READY).

2009-06-30elf: limit max map count to safe valueKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
With ELF, at generating coredump, some more headers other than used vmas are added. When max_map_count == 65536, a core generated by following kinds of code can be unreadable because the number of ELF's program header is written in 16bit in Ehdr (please see elf.h) and the number overflows. == ... = mmap(); (munmap, mprotect, etc...) if (failed) abort(); == This can happen in mmap/munmap/mprotect/etc...which calls split_vma(). I think 65536 is not safe as _default_ and reduce it to 65530 is good for avoiding unexpected corrupted core. Anyway, max_map_count can be enlarged by sysctl if a user is brave..

2009-06-30alpha: fix percpu build breakageTejun Heo
alpha percpu access requires custom SHIFT_PERCPU_PTR() definition for modules to work around addressing range limitation. This is done via generating inline assembly using C preprocessing which forces the assembler to generate external reference. This happens behind the compiler's back and makes the compiler think that static percpu variables in modules are unused. This used to be worked around by using __unused attribute for percpu variables which prevent the compiler from omitting the variable; however, recent declare/definition attribute unification change broke this as __used can't be used for declaration. Also, in the process, PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES definition in alpha percpu.h got broken. This patch adds PER_CPU_DEF_ATTRIBUTES which is only used for definitions and make alpha use it to add __used for percpu variables in modules. This also fixes the PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES double definition bug.

2009-06-30gcov: fix __ctors_start alignmentHeiko Carstens
The ctors section for each object file is eight byte aligned (on 64 bit). However the __ctors_start symbol starts at an arbitrary address dependent on the size of the previous sections. Therefore the linker may add some zeroes after __ctors_start to make sure the ctors contents are properly aligned. However the extra zeroes at the beginning aren't expected by the code. When walking the functions pointers contained in there and extra zeroes are added this may result in random jumps. So make sure that the __ctors_start symbol is always aligned as well.

Add notification messages that allow the filesystem to invalidate VFS caches. Two notifications are added: 1) inode invalidation - invalidate cached attributes - invalidate a range of pages in the page cache (this is optional) 2) dentry invalidation - try to invalidate a subtree in the dentry cache Care must be taken while accessing the 'struct super_block' for the mount, as it can go away while an invalidation is in progress. To prevent this, introduce a rw-semaphore, that is taken for read during the invalidation and taken for write in the ->kill_sb callback.
