The problem is that compat_arch_ptrace() enters with an addr value of
type compat_ulong_t and calls translate_usr_offset() to translate the
address offset into a struct pt_regs offset like this:

addr = translate_usr_offset(addr)

this means that any return value of translate_usr_offset() is stored
back as compat_ulong_t type into the addr variable.

But since translate_usr_offset() returns -1 for invalid offsets, addr
can now get the value 0xffffffff which then fails the next return-value
sanity check and thus the kernel tries to access invalid memory:

if (addr < 0)
break;

Fix this bug by modifying translate_usr_offset() to take and return
values of type compat_ulong_t, and by returning the value
"sizeof(struct pt_regs)" as an error indicator.

Additionally change the sanity check to check for return values
for >= sizeof(struct pt_regs).

This patch survived my compile and run-tests.

possibly freed now.  However, current implementation start searching the
tree from the last failing address, which is pretty much by definition at
the end of address space.  So, we fail.

The proposal of this patch is to restart the search from the beginning of
the requested vstart address.  This fixes the regression in running KVM
virtual machines for me, described in http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/28/349,

N_ONLINE just means node has pgdat, and if node has/added memory, we use

pxa2xx_spi: bugfix full duplex dma data corruption

Fixes a data corruption bug in pxa2xx_spi.c when operating in full duplex
mode with DMA and using buffers that overlap.

SPI transmit and receive buffers are allowed to be the same or to overlap.
 However, this driver fails if such overlap is attempted in DMA mode
because it maps the rx and tx buffers in the wrong order.  By mapping
DMA_FROM_DEVICE (read) before DMA_TO_DEVICE (write), it invalidates the
cache before flushing it, thus discarding data which should have been
transmitted.

The patch corrects the order of mapping.  This bug exists in all versions
of pxa2xx_spi.c; similar bugs are in the drivers for two other SPI
controllers (au1500, imx).

A version of this patch has been tested on kernel 2.6.20 using
verification of loopback data with: random transfer length, random
bits-per-word, random positive offsets (both larger and smaller than
transfer length) between the start of the rx and tx buffers, and varying
clock rates.

15 years agoreintroduce accept4
Ulrich Drepper [Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:36:14 +0000 (15:36 -0800)] 
reintroduce accept4

Introduce a new accept4() system call.  The addition of this system call
matches analogous changes in 2.6.27 (dup3(), evenfd2(), signalfd4(),
inotify_init1(), epoll_create1(), pipe2()) which added new system calls
that differed from analogous traditional system calls in adding a flags
argument that can be used to access additional functionality.

The accept4() system call is exactly the same as accept(), except that
it adds a flags bit-mask argument.  Two flags are initially implemented.
(Most of the new system calls in 2.6.27 also had both of these flags.)

SOCK_CLOEXEC causes the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag to be enabled
for the new file descriptor returned by accept4().  This is a useful
security feature to avoid leaking information in a multithreaded
program where one thread is doing an accept() at the same time as
another thread is doing a fork() plus exec().  More details here:
http://udrepper.livejournal.com/20407.html "Secure File Descriptor Handling",
Ulrich Drepper).

The other flag is SOCK_NONBLOCK, which causes the O_NONBLOCK flag
to be enabled on the new open file description created by accept4().
(This flag is merely a convenience, saving the use of additional calls
fcntl(F_GETFL) and fcntl (F_SETFL) to achieve the same result.

Here's a test program.  Works on x86-32.  Should work on x86-64, but
I (mtk) don't have a system to hand to test with.

It tests accept4() with each of the four possible combinations of
SOCK_CLOEXEC and SOCK_NONBLOCK set/clear in 'flags', and verifies
that the appropriate flags are set on the file descriptor/open file
description returned by accept4().

I tested Ulrich's patch in this thread by applying against 2.6.28-rc2,
and it passes according to my test program.

In ipc_addid(), the newly allocated ipc structure is inserted into the

15 years agoftrace: fix dyn ftrace filter selection
Steven Rostedt [Wed, 19 Nov 2008 01:33:02 +0000 (20:33 -0500)] 
ftrace: fix dyn ftrace filter selection

Impact: clean up and fix for dyn ftrace filter selection

The previous logic of the dynamic ftrace selection of enabling
or disabling functions was complex and incorrect. This patch simplifies
the code and corrects the usage. This simplification also makes the
code more robust.

Here is the correct logic:

  Given a function that can be traced by dynamic ftrace:

  If the function is not to be traced, disable it if it was enabled.
  (this is if the function is in the set_ftrace_notrace file)

  (filter is on if there exists any functions in set_ftrace_filter file)

  If the filter is on, and we are enabling functions:
    If the function is in set_ftrace_filter, enable it if it is not
      already enabled.
    If the function is not in set_ftrace_filter, disable it if it is not
      already disabled.

  Otherwise, if the filter is off and we are enabling function tracing:
    Enable the function if it is not already enabled.

  Otherwise, if we are disabling function tracing:
    Disable the function if it is not already disabled.

This code now sets or clears the ENABLED flag in the record, and at the
end it will enable the function if the flag is set, or disable the function
if the flag is cleared.

The parameters for the function that does the above logic is also
simplified. Instead of passing in confusing "new" and "old" where
they might be swapped if the "enabled" flag is not set. The old logic
even had one of the above always NULL and had to be filled in. The new
logic simply passes in one parameter called "nop". A "call" is calculated
in the code, and at the end of the logic, when we know we need to either
disable or enable the function, we can then use the "nop" and "call"
properly.

This code is more robust than the previous version.

and the functions being recorded by the dynamic tracer does not

block: fix boot failure with CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT=y and nash

We run into system boot failure with kernel 2.6.28-rc. We found it on a
couple of machines, including T61 notebook, nehalem machine, and another
HPC NX6325 notebook.  All the machines use FedoraCore 8 or FedoraCore 9.
With kernel prior to 2.6.28-rc, system boot doesn't fail.

I debug it and locate the root cause. Pls. see
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11899
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471517

As a matter of fact, there are 2 bugs.

1)root=/dev/sda1, system boot randomly fails. Mostly, boot for 5 times
and fails once. nash has a bug. Some of its functions misuse return
value 0.  Sometimes, 0 means timeout and no uevent available. Sometimes,
0 means nash gets an uevent, but the uevent isn't block-related (for
exmaple, usb). If by coincidence, kernel tells nash that uevents are
available, but kernel also set timeout, nash might stops collecting
other uevents in queue if current uevent isn't block-related.  I work
out a patch for nash to fix it.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=18858

2) root=LABEL=/, system always can't boot. initrd init reports
switchroot fails. Here is an executation branch of nash when booting:
    (1) nash read /sys/block/sda/dev; Assume major is 8 (on my desktop)
    (2) nash query /proc/devices with the major number; It found line
"8 sd";
    (3) nash use 'sd' to search its own probe table to find device (DISK)
type for the device and add it to its own list;
    (4) Later on, it probes all devices in its list to get filesystem
labels; scsi register "8 sd" always.

When major is 259, nash fails to find the device(DISK) type. I enables
CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT=y when compiling kernel, so 259 is picked up
for device /dev/sda1, which causes nash to fail to find device (DISK)
type.

To fixing issue 2), I create a patch for nash and another patch for
kernel.

dozens of times without failure.

Fixes a data corruption under heavy stress in which pages could be left
dirty after all open instances of a inode have been closed.

In order to write contiguous pages whenever possible, cifs_writepages()
asks pagevec_lookup_tag() for more pages than it may write at one time.
Normally, it then resets index just past the last page written before calling
pagevec_lookup_tag() again.

If cifs_writepages() can't write the first page returned, it wasn't resetting
index, and the next call to pagevec_lookup_tag() resulted in skipping all of
the pages it previously returned, even though cifs_writepages() did nothing
with them.  This can result in data loss when the file descriptor is about
to be closed.

sched, signals: fix the racy usage of ->signal in account_group_xxx/run_posix_cpu_timers

Impact: fix potential NULL dereference

Contrary to ad474caca3e2a0550b7ce0706527ad5ab389a4d4 changelog, other
acct_group_xxx() helpers can be called after exit_notify() by timer tick.
Thanks to Roland for pointing out this. Somehow I missed this simple fact
when I read the original patch, and I am afraid I confused Frank during
the discussion. Sorry.

Fortunately, these helpers work with current, we can check ->exit_state
to ensure that ->signal can't go away under us.

Also, add the comment and compiler barrier to account_group_exec_runtime(),
to make sure we load ->signal only once.

16 years agoswiotlb: use coherent_dma_mask in alloc_coherent

swiotlb: use coherent_dma_mask in alloc_coherent

Impact: fix DMA buffer allocation coherency bug in certain configs

This patch fixes swiotlb to use dev->coherent_dma_mask in
swiotlb_alloc_coherent().

coherent_dma_mask is a subset of dma_mask (equal to it most of
the time), enumerating the address range that a given device
is able to DMA to/from in a cache-coherent way.

But currently, swiotlb uses dev->dma_mask in alloc_coherent()
implicitly via address_needs_mapping(), but alloc_coherent is really
supposed to use coherent_dma_mask.

This bug could break drivers that uses smaller coherent_dma_mask than
dma_mask (though the current code works for the majority that use the
same mask for coherent_dma_mask and dma_mask).
