Brian Haley [Mon, 8 Oct 2007 07:12:05 +0000 (00:12 -0700)] 
[IPv6]: Fix ICMPv6 redirect handling with target multicast address

When the ICMPv6 Target address is multicast, Linux processes the
redirect instead of dropping it.  The problem is in this code in
ndisc_redirect_rcv():

         if (ipv6_addr_equal(dest, target)) {
                 on_link = 1;
         } else if (!(ipv6_addr_type(target) & IPV6_ADDR_LINKLOCAL)) {
                 ND_PRINTK2(KERN_WARNING
                            "ICMPv6 Redirect: target address is not
link-local.\n");
                 return;
         }

This second check will succeed if the Target address is, for example,
FF02::1 because it has link-local scope.  Instead, it should be checking
if it's a unicast link-local address, as stated in RFC 2461/4861 Section
8.1:

       - The ICMP Target Address is either a link-local address (when
         redirected to a router) or the same as the ICMP Destination
         Address (when redirected to the on-link destination).

I know this doesn't explicitly say unicast link-local address, but it's
implied.

This bug is preventing Linux kernels from achieving IPv6 Logo Phase II
certification because of a recent error that was found in the TAHI test
suite - Neighbor Disovery suite test 206 (v6LC.2.3.6_G) had the
multicast address in the Destination field instead of Target field, so
we were passing the test.  This won't be the case anymore.

The patch below fixes this problem, and also fixes ndisc_send_redirect()
to not send an invalid redirect with a multicast address in the Target
field.  I re-ran the TAHI Neighbor Discovery section to make sure Linux
passes all 245 tests now.

therefore fastpath_cnt_hint must be tweaked too or else it can
corrupt fackets_out. The corruption to occur, one must have
non-trivial ACK/SACK sequence, so this bug is not very often
that harmful. There's a fackets_out state reset in TCP because
fackets_out is known to be inaccurate and that fixes the issue

In case there was also at least one skb that got fully ACKed,
the fastpath_skb_hint is set to NULL which causes a recount for
fastpath_cnt_hint (the old value won't be accessed anymore),
thus it can safely be decremented without additional checking.

xen: disable split pte locks for now

When pinning and unpinning pagetables, we must protect them against
being used by other CPUs, lest they see the pagetable in an
intermediate read-only-but-not-pinned state.

When using split pte locks, doing this properly would require taking
all the pte locks for the pagetable while pinning, but this may overflow
the PREEMPT_BITS part of the preempt counter if the process has mapped
more than about 512M of memory.

However, failing to take the pte locks causes write-protect faults when
the pageout code is trying to clear the Access bit on a pte which is part
of a freshy created and still being pinned process after fork.

This is a short-term fix until the problem is solved properly.

Remove unnecessary cast in prefetch()

It is ok to call prefetch() function with NULL argument, as specifically

to dereference NULL pointer (see C99 standard 6.5.3.2 paragraph 4 and
note #84).

prefetch() has a memory reference for its argument.

Newer gcc versions (4.3 and above) will use that to conclude that "x"
argument is non-null and thus wreaking havok everywhere prefetch() was
inlined.

Fixed by removing cast and changing asm constraint.

[ It seems in theory gcc 4.2 could miscompile this too; although no
  cases known.  In 2.6.24 we should probably switch to

   Older ld's wrongly generated these unneeded symbols in .dynsym.  This
   was fixed not all that long ago (2006); binutils-2.17.50.0.6 might be
   the first fixed version, but I have not verified for sure where the
   cutoff was.

   The unneeded symbols et al from old ld add almost 700 bytes excess.
   This limits fairly tightly the amount by which the actual text and
   data in the vDSO can grow in the future without pushing the whole
   file over 4kb.  If it does grow later on, we should consider changing
   the layout with a config option or something to pack it better
   without that padding, when building the kernel with newer binutils."

17 years ago[POWERPC] Fix xics set_affinity code
Anton Blanchard [Sun, 30 Sep 2007 21:45:55 +0000 (07:45 +1000)] 
[POWERPC] Fix xics set_affinity code

On a POWER6 machine running 2.6.23-rc8 I sometimes see the following error:

xics_set_affinity: No online cpus in the mask 00000000,00000000,00000000,00000001 for irq 20

In a desperate attempt to get a changelog entry in 2.6.23, I took a look
into it.

It turns out we are passing a real and not a virtual irq into
get_irq_server.  This works for the case where hwirq < NR_IRQS and we
set virq = hwirq.  In my case however hwirq = 590082 and we try and
access irq_desc[590082], slightly past the end at 512 entries.

Lucky we ship lots of memory with our machines.

17 years agoFix possible splice() mmap_sem deadlock
Linus Torvalds [Mon, 1 Oct 2007 20:17:28 +0000 (13:17 -0700)] 
Fix possible splice() mmap_sem deadlock

Nick Piggin points out that splice isn't being good about the mmap
semaphore: while two readers can nest inside each others, it does leave
a possible deadlock if a writer (ie a new mmap()) comes in during that
nesting.

Original "just move the locking" patch by Nick, replaced by one by me
based on an optimistic pagefault_disable().  And then Jens tested and
updated that patch.
