2008-10-16tpm: work around bug in Broadcom BCM0102 chipsetValdis Kletnieks
Patch tpm-correct-tpm-timeouts-to-jiffies-conversion reveals a bug in the Broadcom BCM0102 TPM chipset used in the Dell Latitude D820 - although most of the timeouts are returned in usecs as per the spec, one is apparently returned in msecs, which results in a too-small value leading to a timeout when the code treats it as usecs. To prevent a regression, we check for the known too-short value and adjust it to a value that makes things work.

2008-10-16tpm: correct tpm timeouts to jiffies conversionMarcin Obara
This patch fixes timeouts conversion to jiffies, by replacing msecs_to_jiffies() calls with usecs_to_jiffies(). According to TCG TPM Specification Version 1.2 Revision 103 (pages 166, 167) TPM timeouts and durations are returned in microseconds (usec) not in miliseconds (msec). This fixes a long hang while loading TPM driver, if TPM chip starts in "Idle" state instead of "Ready" state. Without this patch - 'modprobe' may hang for 30 seconds or more.

Make the Thermal messages (temperature got past Tmid) be displayed only once because: 1) it's the BIOS job to configure and handle the memory throttling 2) if the BIOS is broken or is aware about the condition, flooding the system logs won't help anything. 3) According to the specification update for Intel 5000 MCHs, all the revisions of this MCH have problems on the thermal sensors, making not automatic (a.k.a. intelligent thermal throttling) impossible.

2008-10-16block: sanitize invalid partition table entriesKay Sievers
We currently follow blindly what the partition table lies about the disk, and let the kernel create block devices which can not be accessed. Trying to identify the device leads to kernel logs full of: sdb: rw=0, want=73392, limit=28800 attempt to access beyond end of device Here is an example of a broken partition table, where sda2 starts behind the end of the disk, and sdb3 is larger than the entire disk: Disk /dev/sdb: 14 MB, 14745600 bytes 1 heads, 29 sectors/track, 993 cylinders, total 28800 sectors Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 29 7800 3886 83 Linux /dev/sdb2 37801 45601 3900+ 83 Linux /dev/sdb3 15602 73402 28900+ 83 Linux /dev/sdb4 23403 28796 2697 83 Linux The kernel creates these completely invalid devices, which can not be accessed, or may lead to other unpredictable failures: grep . /sys/class/block/sdb*/{start,size} /sys/class/block/sdb/size:28800 /sys/class/block/sdb1/start:29 /sys/class/block/sdb1/size:7772 /sys/class/block/sdb2/start:37801 /sys/class/block/sdb2/size:7801 /sys/class/block/sdb3/start:15602 /sys/class/block/sdb3/size:57801 /sys/class/block/sdb4/start:23403 /sys/class/block/sdb4/size:5394 With this patch, we ignore partitions which start behind the end of the disk, and limit partitions to the end of the disk if they pretend to be larger: grep . /sys/class/block/sdb*/{start,size} /sys/class/block/sdb/size:28800 /sys/class/block/sdb1/start:29 /sys/class/block/sdb1/size:7772 /sys/class/block/sdb3/start:15602 /sys/class/block/sdb3/size:13198 /sys/class/block/sdb4/start:23403 /sys/class/block/sdb4/size:5394 These warnings are printed to the kernel log: sdb: p2 ignored, start 37801 is behind the end of the disk sdb: p3 size 57801 limited to end of disk Signed-off-by: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org> Cc: Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski <herton@mandriva.com.br> Cc: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2008-10-16binfmt_elf_fdpic: convert initial stack alignment to arch_align_stack()Paul Mundt
binfmt_elf_fdpic seems to have grabbed a hard-coded hack from an ancient version of binfmt_elf in order to try and fix up initial stack alignment on multi-threaded x86, which while in addition to being unused, was also pushed down beyond the first set of operations on the stack pointer, negating the entire purpose. These days, we have an architecture independent arch_align_stack(), so we switch to using that instead. Move the initial alignment up before the initial stores while we're at it.

2008-10-16hfsplus: fix Buffer overflow with a corrupted imageEric Sesterhenn
When an hfsplus image gets corrupted it might happen that the catalog namelength field gets b0rked. If we mount such an image the memcpy() in hfsplus_cat_build_key_uni() writes more than the 255 that fit in the name field. Depending on the size of the overwritten data, we either only get memory corruption or also trigger an oops like this: [ 221.628020] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at c82b0000 [ 221.629066] IP: [<c022d4b1>] hfsplus_find_cat+0x10d/0x151 [ 221.629066] *pde = 0ea29163 *pte = 082b0160 [ 221.629066] Oops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT DEBUG_PAGEALLOC [ 221.629066] Modules linked in: [ 221.629066] [ 221.629066] Pid: 4845, comm: mount Not tainted (2.6.27-rc4-00123-gd3ee1b4-dirty #28) [ 221.629066] EIP: 0060:[<c022d4b1>] EFLAGS: 00010206 CPU: 0 [ 221.629066] EIP is at hfsplus_find_cat+0x10d/0x151 [ 221.629066] EAX: 00000029 EBX: 00016210 ECX: 000042c2 EDX: 00000002 [ 221.629066] ESI: c82d70ca EDI: c82b0000 EBP: c82d1bcc ESP: c82d199c [ 221.629066] DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 0000 GS: 0033 SS: 0068 [ 221.629066] Process mount (pid: 4845, ti=c82d1000 task=c8224060 task.ti=c82d1000) [ 221.629066] Stack: c080b3c4 c82aa8f8 c82d19c2 00016210 c080b3be c82d1bd4 c82aa8f0 00000300 [ 221.629066] 01000000 750008b1 74006e00 74006900 65006c00 c82d6400 c013bd35 c8224060 [ 221.629066] 00000036 00000046 c82d19f0 00000082 c8224548 c8224060 00000036 c0d653cc [ 221.629066] Call Trace: [ 221.629066] [<c013bd35>] ? trace_hardirqs_off+0xb/0xd [ 221.629066] [<c013bca3>] ? trace_hardirqs_off_caller+0x14/0x9b [ 221.629066] [<c013bd35>] ? trace_hardirqs_off+0xb/0xd [ 221.629066] [<c013bca3>] ? trace_hardirqs_off_caller+0x14/0x9b [ 221.629066] [<c013bd35>] ? trace_hardirqs_off+0xb/0xd [ 221.629066] [<c0107aa3>] ? native_sched_clock+0x82/0x96 [ 221.629066] [<c01302d2>] ? __kernel_text_address+0x1b/0x27 [ 221.629066] [<c010487a>] ? dump_trace+0xca/0xd6 [ 221.629066] [<c0109e32>] ? save_stack_address+0x0/0x2c [ 221.629066] [<c0109eaf>] ? save_stack_trace+0x1c/0x3a [ 221.629066] [<c013b571>] ? save_trace+0x37/0x8d [ 221.629066] [<c013b62e>] ? add_lock_to_list+0x67/0x8d [ 221.629066] [<c013ea1c>] ? validate_chain+0x8a4/0x9f4 [ 221.629066] [<c013553d>] ? down+0xc/0x2f [ 221.629066] [<c013f1f6>] ? __lock_acquire+0x68a/0x6e0 [ 221.629066] [<c013bd35>] ? trace_hardirqs_off+0xb/0xd [ 221.629066] [<c013bca3>] ? trace_hardirqs_off_caller+0x14/0x9b [ 221.629066] [<c013bd35>] ? trace_hardirqs_off+0xb/0xd [ 221.629066] [<c0107aa3>] ? native_sched_clock+0x82/0x96 [ 221.629066] [<c013da5d>] ? mark_held_locks+0x43/0x5a [ 221.629066] [<c013dc3a>] ? trace_hardirqs_on+0xb/0xd [ 221.629066] [<c013dbf4>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0xf4/0x12f [ 221.629066] [<c06abec8>] ? _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x42/0x58 [ 221.629066] [<c013555c>] ? down+0x2b/0x2f [ 221.629066] [<c022aa68>] ? hfsplus_iget+0xa0/0x154 [ 221.629066] [<c022b0b9>] ? hfsplus_fill_super+0x280/0x447 [ 221.629066] [<c0107aa3>] ? native_sched_clock+0x82/0x96 [ 221.629066] [<c013bca3>] ? trace_hardirqs_off_caller+0x14/0x9b [ 221.629066] [<c013bca3>] ? trace_hardirqs_off_caller+0x14/0x9b [ 221.629066] [<c013f1f6>] ? __lock_acquire+0x68a/0x6e0 [ 221.629066] [<c041c9e4>] ? string+0x2b/0x74 [ 221.629066] [<c041cd16>] ? vsnprintf+0x2e9/0x512 [ 221.629066] [<c010487a>] ? dump_trace+0xca/0xd6 [ 221.629066] [<c0109eaf>] ? save_stack_trace+0x1c/0x3a [ 221.629066] [<c0109eaf>] ? save_stack_trace+0x1c/0x3a [ 221.629066] [<c013b571>] ? save_trace+0x37/0x8d [ 221.629066] [<c013b62e>] ? add_lock_to_list+0x67/0x8d [ 221.629066] [<c013ea1c>] ? validate_chain+0x8a4/0x9f4 [ 221.629066] [<c01354d3>] ? up+0xc/0x2f [ 221.629066] [<c013f1f6>] ? __lock_acquire+0x68a/0x6e0 [ 221.629066] [<c013bd35>] ? trace_hardirqs_off+0xb/0xd [ 221.629066] [<c013bca3>] ? trace_hardirqs_off_caller+0x14/0x9b [ 221.629066] [<c013bd35>] ? trace_hardirqs_off+0xb/0xd [ 221.629066] [<c0107aa3>] ? native_sched_clock+0x82/0x96 [ 221.629066] [<c041cfb7>] ? snprintf+0x1b/0x1d [ 221.629066] [<c01ba466>] ? disk_name+0x25/0x67 [ 221.629066] [<c0183960>] ? get_sb_bdev+0xcd/0x10b [ 221.629066] [<c016ad92>] ? kstrdup+0x2a/0x4c [ 221.629066] [<c022a7b3>] ? hfsplus_get_sb+0x13/0x15 [ 221.629066] [<c022ae39>] ? hfsplus_fill_super+0x0/0x447 [ 221.629066] [<c0183583>] ? vfs_kern_mount+0x3b/0x76 [ 221.629066] [<c0183602>] ? do_kern_mount+0x32/0xba [ 221.629066] [<c01960d4>] ? do_new_mount+0x46/0x74 [ 221.629066] [<c0196277>] ? do_mount+0x175/0x193 [ 221.629066] [<c013dbf4>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0xf4/0x12f [ 221.629066] [<c01663b2>] ? __get_free_pages+0x1e/0x24 [ 221.629066] [<c06ac07b>] ? lock_kernel+0x19/0x8c [ 221.629066] [<c01962e6>] ? sys_mount+0x51/0x9b [ 221.629066] [<c01962f9>] ? sys_mount+0x64/0x9b [ 221.629066] [<c01038bd>] ? sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x31 [ 221.629066] ======================= [ 221.629066] Code: 89 c2 c1 e2 08 c1 e8 08 09 c2 8b 85 e8 fd ff ff 66 89 50 06 89 c7 53 83 c7 08 56 57 68 c4 b3 80 c0 e8 8c 5c ef ff 89 d9 c1 e9 02 <f3> a5 89 d9 83 e1 03 74 02 f3 a4 83 c3 06 8b 95 e8 fd ff ff 0f [ 221.629066] EIP: [<c022d4b1>] hfsplus_find_cat+0x10d/0x151 SS:ESP 0068:c82d199c [ 221.629066] ---[ end trace e417a1d67f0d0066 ]--- Since hfsplus_cat_build_key_uni() returns void and only has one callsite, the check is performed at the callsite.

2008-10-16ext2: avoid printk floods in the face of directory corruptionEric Sandeen
A very large directory with many read failures (either due to storage problems, or due to invalid size & blocks from corruption) will generate a printk storm as the filesystem continues to try to read all the blocks. This flood of messages can tie up the box until it is complete - which may be a very long time, especially for very large corrupted values. This is fixed by only reporting the corruption once each time we try to read the directory.

2008-10-16ext2: fix ext2 block reservation early ENOSPC issueMingming Cao
We could run into ENOSPC error on ext2, even when there is free blocks on the filesystem. The problem is triggered in the case the goal block group has 0 free blocks , and the rest block groups are skipped due to the check of "free_blocks < windowsz/2". Current code could fall back to non reservation allocation to prevent early ENOSPC after examing all the block groups with reservation on , but this code was bypassed if the reservation window is turned off already, which is true in this case. This patch fixed two issues: 1) We don't need to turn off block reservation if the goal block group has 0 free blocks left and continue search for the rest of block groups. Current code the intention is to turn off the block reservation if the goal allocation group has a few (some) free blocks left (not enough for make the desired reservation window),to try to allocation in the goal block group, to get better locality. But if the goal blocks have 0 free blocks, it should leave the block reservation on, and continues search for the next block groups,rather than turn off block reservation completely. 2) we don't need to check the window size if the block reservation is off. The problem was originally found and fixed in ext4.

2008-10-16fbdev: allow more chip revisions in Epson s1d13... video driverKristoffer Ericson
The Epson s1d13xxx hardware is common in many handhelds, but our driver is currently locked to a single chip revision. This patch adds an array of known to work revisions (which can be extended).

2008-10-16fbdev: ignore VESA modes if framebuffer does not support themMichal Januszewski
Currently, it is possible to set a graphics VESA mode at boot time via the vga= parameter even when no framebuffer driver supporting this is configured. This could lead to the system booting with a black screen, without a usable console. Fix this problem by only allowing to set graphics modes at boot time if a supporting framebuffer driver is configured.

There's no point in checking diff == c->vc_rows, because it can be true only when count == 0, but we already checked that. Additionally move variables used only in one block to this block.

2008-10-16fbmon: fix EDID parser to detect interlace modesJon Dufresne
The current EDID parser in the linux kernel ignores interlace modes. The patch looks for the edid interlace flag and adjusts the vertical resolution if it is found.

2008-10-16uvesafb: don't treat mode info retrieval failures as errorsMichal Januszewski
Some BIOSes return error codes when queried for information about modes from their own modelist. uvesafb treats this as an error case and bails out. Change this behavior so that broken modes do not prevent the driver from working. Only the failure to retrieve information about any usable video mode is considered to be an error case.
