2009-07-19x86: Introduce set_desc_base() and set_desc_limit()Akinobu Mita
Rename set_base()/set_limit to set_desc_base()/set_desc_limit() and rewrite them in C. These are naturally introduced by the idea of get_desc_base()/get_desc_limit(). The conversion actually found the bug in apm_32.c: bad_bios_desc is written at run-time, but it is defined const variable.

2009-07-16tracing/function: Fix the return value of ftrace_trace_onoff_callback()Xiao Guangrong
ftrace_trace_onoff_callback() will return an error even if we do the right operation, for example: # echo _spin_*:traceon:10 > set_ftrace_filter -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument # cat set_ftrace_filter #### all functions enabled #### _spin_trylock_bh:traceon:count=10 _spin_unlock_irq:traceon:count=10 _spin_unlock_bh:traceon:count=10 _spin_lock_irq:traceon:count=10 _spin_unlock:traceon:count=10 _spin_trylock:traceon:count=10 _spin_unlock_irqrestore:traceon:count=10 _spin_lock_irqsave:traceon:count=10 _spin_lock_bh:traceon:count=10 _spin_lock:traceon:count=10 We want to set _spin_*:traceon:10 to set_ftrace_filter, it complains with "Invalid argument", but the operation is successful. This is because ftrace_process_regex() returns the number of functions that matched the pattern. If the number is not 0, this value is returned by ftrace_regex_write() whereas we want to return the number of bytes virtually written. Also the file offset pointer is not updated in this case. If the number of matched functions is lower than the number of bytes written by the user, this results to a reprocessing of the string given by the user with a lower size, leading to a malformed ftrace regex and then a -EINVAL returned. So, this patch fixes it by returning 0 if no error occured. The fix also applies on 2.6.30 Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com> Reviewed-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>

2009-07-16n_tty: Fix echo raceAlan Cox
If a tty in N_TTY mode with echo enabled manages to get itself into a state where - echo characters are pending - FASYNC is enabled - tty_write_wakeup is called from either - a device write path (pty) - an IRQ (serial) then it either deadlocks or explodes taking a mutex in the IRQ path. On the serial side it is almost impossible to reproduce because you have to go from a full serial port to a near empty one with echo characters pending. The pty case happens to have become possible to trigger using emacs and ptys, the pty changes having created a scenario which shows up this bug. The code path is n_tty:process_echoes() (takes mutex) tty_io:tty_put_char() pty:pty_write (or serial paths) tty_wakeup (from pty_write or serial IRQ) n_tty_write_wakeup() process_echoes() *KABOOM* Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-07-16vt: drop bootmem/slab memory distinctionJohannes Weiner
Bootmem is not used for the vt screen buffer anymore as slab is now available at the time the console is initialized. Get rid of the now superfluous distinction between slab and bootmem, it's always slab. This also fixes a kmalloc leak which Catalin described thusly: Commit a5f4f52e ("vt: use kzalloc() instead of the bootmem allocator") replaced the alloc_bootmem() with kzalloc() but didn't set vc_kmalloced to 1 and the memory block is later leaked.

2009-07-16Add '-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks' to gcc CFLAGSEugene Teo
Turning on this flag could prevent the compiler from optimising away some "useless" checks for null pointers. Such bugs can sometimes become exploitable at compile time because of the -O2 optimisation. See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.1.2/gcc/Optimize-Options.html An example that clearly shows this 'problem' is commit 6bf67672. static void __devexit agnx_pci_remove(struct pci_dev *pdev) { struct ieee80211_hw *dev = pci_get_drvdata(pdev); - struct agnx_priv *priv = dev->priv; + struct agnx_priv *priv; AGNX_TRACE; if (!dev) return; + priv = dev->priv; By reverting this patch, and compile it with and without -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks flag, we can see that the check for dev is compiled away. call printk # - testq %r12, %r12 # dev - je .L94 #, movq %r12, %rdi # dev, Clearly the 'fix' is to stop using dev before it is tested, but building with -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks flag at least makes it harder to abuse.

Unfortunately, the descriptors of that altsetting have a wrong channel setting, which means that any recorded data from such a device has twice the sample rate from what would be expected.
