2008-04-15rtc: fix the error in the function of cmos_set_alarmZhao Yakui
There is a bug in the function of cmos_set_alarm. RTC alarm time for October can't be set correctly. For October: 0x0A will be written into the RTC region (MONTH_ALARM) in current kernel. But in fact 0x10 should be written. Wildcards are also not handled correctly.

2008-04-15mm: sparsemem memory_present() fixIngo Molnar
Fix memory corruption and crash on 32-bit x86 systems. If a !PAE x86 kernel is booted on a 32-bit system with more than 4GB of RAM, then we call memory_present() with a start/end that goes outside the scope of MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS. That causes this loop to happily walk over the limit of the sparse memory section map: for (pfn = start; pfn < end; pfn += PAGES_PER_SECTION) { unsigned long section = pfn_to_section_nr(pfn); struct mem_section *ms; sparse_index_init(section, nid); set_section_nid(section, nid); ms = __nr_to_section(section); if (!ms->section_mem_map) ms->section_mem_map = sparse_encode_early_nid(nid) | SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT; 'ms' will be out of bounds and we'll corrupt a small amount of memory by encoding the node ID and writing SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT (==0x1) over it. The corruption might happen when encoding a non-zero node ID, or due to the SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT which is 0x1: mmzone.h:#define SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT (1UL<<0) The fix is to sanity check anything the architecture passes to sparsemem. This bug seems to be rather old (as old as sparsemem support itself), but the exact incarnation depended on random details like configs, which made this bug more prominent in v2.6.25-to-be. An additional enhancement might be to print a warning about ignored or trimmed memory ranges.

2008-04-15Fix locking bug in "acquire_console_semaphore_for_printk()"Linus Torvalds
When I cleaned up printk() and split up the printk locking logic in commit 266c2e0abeca649fa6667a1a427ad1da507c6375 ("Make printk() console semaphore accesses sensible") I had incorrectly moved the call to have_callable_console() outside of the console semaphore. That was buggy. The console semaphore protects the console_drivers list that is used by have_callable_console(). Thanks go to Bongani Hlope who saw this as a hang on shutdown and reboot and bisected the bug to the right commit, and tested this patch.

2008-04-15netconsole: only set CON_PRINTBUFFER if the user specifies a netconsoleMichael Ellerman
Since 0bcc1816188e570bde1d56a208996660f2633ae0 (netconsole: Support dynamic reconfiguration using configfs), the netconsole is always registered, regardless of whether the user actually specified a netconsole configuration on the command line. However because netconsole has CON_PRINTBUFFER set, when it is registered it causes the printk buffer to be replayed to all consoles. When there is no netconsole configured this is a) pointless, and b) somewhat annoying for the user of the existing console. So instead we should only set CON_PRINTBUFFER if there is a netconsole configuration found on the command line. This retains the existing behaviour if a netconsole is setup by the user, and avoids spamming other consoles when we're only registering for the dynamic netconsole case.

write_begin This fixes a regression introduced in commit 205c109a7a96d9a3d8ffe64c4068b70811fef5e8 when switching to write_begin/write_end operations in JFFS2. The page offset is miscalculated, leading to corruption of the fragment lists and subsequently to memory corruption and panics. [ Side note: the bug is a fairly direct result of the naming. Nick was likely misled by the use of "offs", since we tend to use the notion of "offset" not as an absolute position, but as an offset _within_ a page or allocation. Alternatively, a "pgoff_t" is a page index, but not a byte offset - our VM naming can be a bit confusing. So in this case, a VM person would likely have called this a "pos", not an "offs", or perhaps talked about byte offsets rather than page offsets (since it's counted in bytes, not pages). - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Alexey Korolev <akorolev@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Vasiliy Leonenko <vasiliy.leonenko@mail.ru> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-04-14[NET_SCHED] sch_api: fix qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() loopJarek Poplawski
TC_H_MAJ(parentid) for root classes is the same as for ingress, and if ingress qdisc is created qdisc_lookup() returns its pointer (without ingress NULL is returned). After this all qdisc_lookups give the same, and we get endless loop. (I don't know how this could hide for so long - it should trigger with every leaf class deleted if it's qdisc isn't empty.) After this fix qdisc_lookup() is omitted both for ingress and root parents, but looking for root is only wasting a little time here...

2008-04-14locks: fix possible infinite loop in fcntl(F_SETLKW) over nfsJ. Bruce Fields
Miklos Szeredi found the bug: "Basically what happens is that on the server nlm_fopen() calls nfsd_open() which returns -EACCES, to which nlm_fopen() returns NLM_LCK_DENIED. "On the client this will turn into a -EAGAIN (nlm_stat_to_errno()), which in will cause fcntl_setlk() to retry forever." So, for example, opening a file on an nfs filesystem, changing permissions to forbid further access, then trying to lock the file, could result in an infinite loop. And Trond Myklebust identified the culprit, from Marc Eshel and I: 7723ec9777d9832849b76475b1a21a2872a40d20 "locks: factor out generic/filesystem switch from setlock code" That commit claimed to just be reshuffling code, but actually introduced a behavioral change by calling the lock method repeatedly as long as it returned -EAGAIN. We assumed this would be safe, since we assumed a lock of type SETLKW would only return with either success or an error other than -EAGAIN. However, nfs does can in fact return -EAGAIN in this situation, and independently of whether that behavior is correct or not, we don't actually need this change, and it seems far safer not to depend on such assumptions about the filesystem's ->lock method. Therefore, revert the problematic part of the original commit. This leaves vfs_lock_file() and its other callers unchanged, while returning fcntl_setlk and fcntl_setlk64 to their former behavior.

This leads to crashes when the skb is passed to __ip_route_output_key when dereferencing the namespace pointer.

2008-04-12[SCTP]: IPv4 vs IPv6 addresses mess in sctp_inet[6]addr_event.Pavel Emelyanov
All IP addresses that are present in a system are duplicated on struct sctp_sockaddr_entry. They are linked in the global list called sctp_local_addr_list. And this struct unions IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. So, there can be rare case, when a sockaddr_in.sin_addr coincides with the corresponding part of the sockaddr_in6 and the notifier for IPv4 will carry away an IPv6 entry. The fix is to check the family before comparing the addresses. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
