Guennadi Liakhovetski noticed that the end condition for the loop in bitmap_find_free_region() is wrong, and the "return if error" was also using the wrong conditional that would only trigger if the bitmap was an exact multiple of the allocation size, which is not necessarily the case with dma_alloc_from_coherent(). Such a failure would end up in bitmap_find_free_region() accessing beyond the end of the bitmap. Reported-by:

STag zero is a special STag that allows consumers to access any bus address without registering memory. The nes driver unfortunately allows STag zero to be used even with QPs created by unprivileged userspace consumers, which means that any process with direct verbs access to the nes device can read and write any memory accessible to the underlying PCI device (usually any memory in the system). Such access is usually given for cluster software such as MPI to use, so this is a local privilege escalation bug on most systems running this driver. The driver was using STag zero to receive the last streaming mode data; to allow STag zero to be disabled for unprivileged QPs, the driver now registers a special MR for this data.

There was a report of a data corruption http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/14/121 . There is a script included to reproduce the problem. During testing, I encountered a number of strange things with ext3, so I tried ext2 to attempt to reduce complexity of the problem. I found that fsstress would quickly hang in wait_on_inode, waiting for I_LOCK to be cleared, even though instrumentation showed that unlock_new_inode had already been called for that inode. This points to memory scribble, or synchronisation problme. i_state of I_NEW inodes is not protected by inode_lock because other processes are not supposed to touch them until I_LOCK (and I_NEW) is cleared. Adding WARN_ON(inode->i_state & I_NEW) to sites where we modify i_state revealed that generic_sync_sb_inodes is picking up new inodes from the inode lists and passing them to __writeback_single_inode without waiting for I_NEW. Subsequently modifying i_state causes corruption. In my case it would look like this: CPU0 CPU1 unlock_new_inode() __sync_single_inode() reg <- inode->i_state reg -> reg & ~(I_LOCK|I_NEW) reg <- inode->i_state reg -> inode->i_state reg -> reg | I_SYNC reg -> inode->i_state Non-atomic RMW on CPU1 overwrites CPU0 store and sets I_LOCK|I_NEW again. Fix for this is rather than wait for I_NEW inodes, just skip over them: inodes concurrently being created are not subject to data integrity operations, and should not significantly contribute to dirty memory either. After this change, I'm unable to reproduce any of the added warnings or hangs after ~1hour of running. Previously, the new warnings would start immediately and hang would happen in under 5 minutes. I'm also testing on ext3 now, and so far no problems there either. I don't know whether this fixes the problem reported above, but it fixes a real problem for me.

Currently we disable the Acer WMI backlight device if there is no ACPI backlight device. As a result, we end up with no backlight device at all. We should instead disable it if there is an ACPI device, as the other laptop drivers do. This regression was introduced in febf2d95 ("Acer-WMI: fingers off backlight if video.ko is serving this functionality"). Each laptop driver with backlight support got a similar change around febf2d95. The changes to the other drivers look correct; see e.g. a598c82f for a similar but correct change. The regression is also in 2.6.28. Signed-off-by:

Unfortunately, there will (probably very) soon be a further downgrade from "Maintained" to "Odd Fixes" or "Orphan", unless some funding miracle occurs.

It is currently impossible to run a user-mode linux machine inside another user-mode linux (UML on UML). It breaks after a few instructions. When it tries to check whether SYSEMU is installed (the inner) UML receives an inconsistent result (from the outer UML). This is the output of a broken attempt: $ ./linux mem=256m ubd0=cow Locating the bottom of the address space ... 0x0 Locating the top of the address space ... 0xc0000000 Core dump limits : soft - 0 hard - NONE Checking that ptrace can change system call numbers...OK Checking ptrace new tags for syscall emulation...unsupported Checking syscall emulation patch for ptrace...check_sysemu : expected SIGTRAP, got status = 256 $ The problem is the following: PTRACE_SYSCALL/SINGLESTEP is currently managed inside arch_ptrace for ARCH=um. PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP is not captured in arch_ptrace's switch, therefore it is erroneously passed back to ptrace_request (in kernel/ptrace). This simple patch simply forces ptrace to return an error on PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP as it is unsupported on ARCH=um, and fixes the problem.

Commit 47a8b0cc (Enable PCIe AER only after checking firmware support) wants to walk the PCI bus in the remove path to disable AER, and calls pci_walk_bus for downstream bridges. Unfortunately, in the remove path, we remove devices and bridges in a depth-first manner, starting with the furthest downstream bridge and working our way backwards. The furthest downstream bridges will not have a dev->subordinate, and we hit a NULL deref in pci_walk_bus. Check for dev->subordinate first before attempting to walk the PCI hierarchy below us.

This patch is intended to disable L0s ASPM link state for 82598 (ixgbe) parts due to the fact that it is possible to corrupt TX data when coming back out of L0s on some systems. The workaround had been added for 82575 (igb) previously, but did not use the ASPM api. This quirk uses the ASPM api to prevent the ASPM subsystem from re-enabling the L0s state. Instead of adding the fix in igb to the ixgbe driver as well it was decided to move it into a pci quirk. It is necessary to move the fix out of the driver and into a pci quirk in order to prevent the issue from occuring prior to driver load to handle the possibility of the device being passed to a VM via direct assignment.

The call doesn't hurt anything and wastes only a couple of cycles. The reason to fix it is because this module serves as an example to hackers writing new hwmon drivers, and this part of the example is confusing. Signed-off-by:

The corrupted filesystem patch added a check against zlib trying to output too much data in the presence of data corruption. This check triggered if zlib_inflate asked to be called again (Z_OK) with avail_out == 0 and no more output buffers available. This check proves to be rather dumb, as it incorrectly catches the case where zlib has generated all the output, but there are still input bytes to be processed. This patch does a number of things. It removes the original check and replaces it with code to not move to the next output buffer if there are no more output buffers available, relying on zlib to error if it wants an extra output buffer in the case of data corruption. It also replaces the Z_NO_FLUSH flag with the more correct Z_SYNC_FLUSH flag, and makes the error messages more understandable to non-technical users. Signed-off-by:
