For historical reason, this driver used its own saving/restoring
of the PCI config space, and used the state of it on resume as
an indication as to whether it needed to re-POST the chip or not.
This methods breaks with the later core changes since the core will
have restored things for us.
This patch fixes it by removing that custom code, using standard
core methods to save/restore state, and testing for the need to
re-POST by comparing the content of a few key PLL registers.

This fixes aty128fb to properly save the PCI config space -before- it
potentially switches the PM state of the chip. This avoids a
warning with the new PM core and is the right thing to do anyway.
I also replaced the hand-coded switch to D2 with a call to the
genericc pci_set_power_state() and removed the code that switches it
back to D0 since the generic code is doing that for us nowadays.

I also slightly cleaned up the code that checks whether we are
running on a PowerMac to do a runtime check instead of a compile
check only, and replaced a deprecated number with the proper
symbolic constant.
Finally, I removed the useless switch to D0 from resume since
the core does it for us.

Impact: fix spurious BUG_ON() triggered under load
module_refcount() isn't reliable outside stop_machine(), as demonstrated
by Karsten Keil <kkeil@suse.de>, networking can trigger it under load
(an inc on one cpu and dec on another while module_refcount() is tallying
can give false results, for example).
Almost noone should be using __module_get, but that's another issue.

During early boot, ACPI RSDT/XSDT table entries are gathered into the
'initial_tables[]' array. This array is currently statically defined (see
./drivers/acpi/tables.c). When there are more table entries than can be
held in the 'initial_tables[]' array, the message "Truncating N table
entries!" is output. As currently implemented, this message will always
erroneously calculate N as 0.
This patch fixes the calculation that determines how many table entries
will be missing (truncated).
This modification may be used under either the GPL or the BSD-style
license used for Intel ACPI CA code.

Bit 11 in intel PDC definitions is meant for OS capability to handle
hardware coordination of P-states. In Linux we have always supported
hwardware coordination of P-states. Just let the BIOSes know that we
support it, by setting this bit.
Some BIOSes use this bit to choose between hardware or software coordination
and without this change below, BIOSes switch to software coordination, which
is not very optimal in terms of power consumption and extra wakeups from idle.

Some devices trigger a DEVICE_CHECK on every evalutation of _STA. This
can also be seen in commit 8b59560a3baf2e7c24e0fb92ea5d09eca92805db
(ACPI: dock: avoid check _STA method). If an undock is processed, the
dock driver sends a uevent and userspace might read the show_docked
property in sysfs. This causes an evaluation of _STA of the particular
device which causes the dock driver to immediately dock again.
In any case, evaluation of _STA (show_docked) does not necessarily mean
that we are docked, so check with the internal device structure.

The addition of filename encryption caused a regression in unencrypted
filename symlink support. ecryptfs_copy_filename() is used when dealing
with unencrypted filenames and it reported that the new, copied filename
was a character longer than it should have been.
This caused the return value of readlink() to count the NULL byte of the
symlink target. Most applications don't care about the extra NULL byte,
but a version control system (bzr) helped in discovering the bug.

x86-64: fix int $0x80 -ENOSYS return
|
|
One of my past fixes to this code introduced a different new bug.
When using 32-bit "int $0x80" entry for a bogus syscall number,
the return value is not correctly set to -ENOSYS. This only happens
when neither syscall-audit nor syscall tracing is enabled (i.e., never
seen if auditd ever started). Test program:
/* gcc -o int80-badsys -m32 -g int80-badsys.c
Run on x86-64 kernel.
Note to reproduce the bug you need auditd never to have started. */
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int
main (void)
{
long res;
asm ("int $0x80" : "=a" (res) : "0" (99999));
printf ("bad syscall returns %ld\n", res);
return res != -ENOSYS;
}
The fix makes the int $0x80 path match the sysenter and syscall paths.

elf core dump: fix get_user use
|
|
The elf_core_dump() code does its work with set_fs(KERNEL_DS) in force,
so vma_dump_size() needs to switch back with set_fs(USER_DS) to safely
use get_user() for a normal user-space address.
Checking for VM_READ optimizes out the case where get_user() would fail
anyway. The vm_file check here was already superfluous given the control
flow earlier in the function, so that is a cleanup/optimization unrelated
to other changes but an obvious and trivial one.

The patch:
commit a6f76f23d297f70e2a6b3ec607f7aeeea9e37e8d
CRED: Make execve() take advantage of copy-on-write credentials
moved the place in which the 'safeness' of a SUID/SGID exec was performed to
before de_thread() was called. This means that LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE is now
calculated incorrectly. This flag is set if any of the usage counts for
fs_struct, files_struct and sighand_struct are greater than 1 at the time the
determination is made. All of which are true for threads created by the
pthread library.
However, since we wish to make the security calculation before irrevocably
damaging the process so that we can return it an error code in the case where
we decide we want to reject the exec request on this basis, we have to make the
determination before calling de_thread().
So, instead, we count up the number of threads (CLONE_THREAD) that are sharing
our fs_struct (CLONE_FS), files_struct (CLONE_FILES) and sighand_structs
(CLONE_SIGHAND/CLONE_THREAD) with us. These will be killed by de_thread() and
so can be discounted by check_unsafe_exec().
We do have to be careful because CLONE_THREAD does not imply FS or FILES.
We _assume_ that there will be no extra references to these structs held by the
threads we're going to kill.
This can be tested with the attached pair of programs. Build the two programs
using the Makefile supplied, and run ./test1 as a non-root user. If
successful, you should see something like:
[dhowells@andromeda tmp]$ ./test1
--TEST1--

exec ./test2

This is a modification of a patch by Bill Pemberton <wfp5p@virginia.edu>
nobh_write_end() could call attach_nobh_buffers() with head == NULL.
This would result in a trap when attach_nobh_buffers() attempted to
access bh->b_this_page.
This can be illustrated by running the writev01 testcase from LTP on jfs.
This error was introduced by commit 5b41e74a "vfs: fix data leak in
nobh_write_end()". That patch did not take into account that if
PageMappedToDisk() is true upon entry to nobh_write_begin(), then no
buffers will be allocated for the page. In that case, we won't have to
worry about a failed write leaving unitialized data in the page.
Of course, head != NULL implies !page_has_buffers(page), so no need to
test both.

When ACPI is disabled in the BIOS of this VIA C3 box,
it invalidates the RSDP, which Linux notices:

Bug Linux neglected to disable ACPI at that stage,
and later scribbled on smp_found_config:
ACPI: No APIC-table, disabling MPS
But this box doesn't run well in legacy PIC mode,
it needed IOAPIC mode to perform correctly:

For audio devices that do not have proper audio descriptors (e.g.,
Edirol UA-20), we use hardcoded parameters from our quirks list.
However, we must still read the maximum packet size from the standard

and therefore rejected by the USB core.

Each different metadata format supported by md supports a
different maximum number of devices.
We really should be enforcing this maximum in the kernel, but
we aren't quite doing that properly.
We currently only enforce it at the 'hot_add' point, which is an
older interface which is not used by current userspace.
We need to also enforce it at 'add_new_disk' time for active arrays
and at 'do_md_run' time when starting a new array.
So move the test from 'hot_add' into 'bind_rdev_to_array' which is
called from both 'hot_add' and 'add_new_disk, and add a new
test in 'analyse_sbs' which is called from 'do_md_run'.
This bug (or missing feature) has been around "forever" and so
the patch is suitable for any -stable that is currently maintained.

ab5bd5cbc8d4b868378d062eed3d4240930fbb86 introduced the following
bug in linear software raid for large arrays on 32 bit machines:
which_dev() computes the device holding a given sector by shifting
down the sector number to a 32 bit range, dividing by the array
spacing and looking up the resulting index in the hash table of
the array.
Because the computed index might be slightly too small, a loop at
the end of which_dev() increases the index until the given sector
actually falls into the range of the device associated with that index.
The changes of the above mentioned commit caused this loop to check
whether the _index_ rather than the sector number is small enough,
effectively bypassing the loop and thus possibly returning the wrong
device.
As reported by Simon Kirby, this leads to errors such as
linear_make_request: Sector 2340486136 out of bounds on dev sdi: 156301312 sectors, offset 2109870464
Fix this bug by introducing a local variable for the index so that
the variable containing the passed sector is left unchanged.
