patch 32fe01985aa2cb2562f6fc171e526e279abe10db in mainline.
This patch (as999) fixes a problem that sometimes shows up when host
controller driver modules are loaded in the wrong order. If ehci-hcd
happens to initialize an EHCI controller while the companion OHCI or
UHCI controller is in the middle of a port reset, the reset can fail
and the companion may get very confused. The patch adds an
rw-semaphore and uses it to keep EHCI initialization and port resets
mutually exclusive.

USB: usbserial - fix potential deadlock between write() and IRQ
usb_serial_generic_write() doesn't disable interrupts when taking port->lock,
and could therefore deadlock with usb_serial_generic_read_bulk_callback()
being called from interrupt, taking the same lock. Fix it.

Original comments:
USB: kobil_sct: Rework driver
No hardware but this driver is currently totally broken so we can't make
it much worse. Remove all tbe broken invalid termios handling and replace
it with a proper set_termios method.

patch 0fec02c93f60fb44ba3a24a0d3e4a52521d34d3f in mainline.
avoid buffer overflow when returning sense data.
With current adapter firmware the driver is working but future firmware
updates may return sense data larger than 96 bytes, causing overflow on
scp->sense_buffer and a kernel crash.
This fix should be backported to earlier kernels.

patch a7475906bc496456ded9e4b062f94067fb93057a in mainline.
pci_enable_msi() replaces the INTx irq number in pci_dev->irq with the
new MSI irq number.
The forcedeth driver did not update the copy in netdevice->irq and
parts of the driver used the stale copy.
See bugzilla.kernel.org, bug 9047.
The patch
- updates netdevice->irq
- replaces all accesses to netdevice->irq with pci_dev->irq.
The patch is against 2.6.23.1. IMHO suitable for both 2.6.23 and 2.6.24

[IPSEC]: Fix crypto_alloc_comp error checking
[ Upstream commit: 4999f3621f4da622e77931b3d33ada6c7083c705 ]
The function crypto_alloc_comp returns an errno instead of NULL
to indicate error. So it needs to be tested with IS_ERR.

[PKT_SCHED] CLS_U32: Fix endianness problem with u32 classifier hash masks.
While trying to implement u32 hashes in my shaping machine I ran into
a possible bug in the u32 hash/bucket computing algorithm
(net/sched/cls_u32.c).
The problem occurs only with hash masks that extend over the octet
boundary, on little endian machines (where htonl() actually does
something).
Let's say that I would like to use 0x3fc0 as the hash mask. This means
8 contiguous "1" bits starting at b6. With such a mask, the expected
(and logical) behavior is to hash any address in, for instance,
192.168.0.0/26 in bucket 0, then any address in 192.168.0.64/26 in
bucket 1, then 192.168.0.128/26 in bucket 2 and so on.
This is exactly what would happen on a big endian machine, but on
little endian machines, what would actually happen with current
implementation is 0x3fc0 being reversed (into 0xc03f0000) by htonl()
in the userspace tool and then applied to 192.168.x.x in the u32
classifier. When shifting right by 16 bits (rank of first "1" bit in
the reversed mask) and applying the divisor mask (0xff for divisor
256), what would actually remain is 0x3f applied on the "168" octet of
the address.
One could say is this can be easily worked around by taking endianness
into account in userspace and supplying an appropriate mask (0xfc03)
that would be turned into contiguous "1" bits when reversed
(0x03fc0000). But the actual problem is the network address (inside
the packet) not being converted to host order, but used as a
host-order value when computing the bucket.
Let's say the network address is written as n31 n30 ... n0, with n0
being the least significant bit. When used directly (without any
conversion) on a little endian machine, it becomes n7 ... n0 n8 ..n15
etc in the machine's registers. Thus bits n7 and n8 would no longer be
adjacent and 192.168.64.0/26 and 192.168.128.0/26 would no longer be
consecutive.
The fix is to apply ntohl() on the hmask before computing fshift,
and in u32_hash_fold() convert the packet data to host order before
shifting down by fshift.
With helpful feedback from Jamal Hadi Salim and Jarek Poplawski.

[NETLINK]: Fix unicast timeouts

Commit ed6dcf4a in the history.git tree broke netlink_unicast timeouts
by moving the schedule_timeout() call to a new function that doesn't
propagate the remaining timeout back to the caller. This means on each
retry we start with the full timeout again.
ipc/mqueue.c seems to actually want to wait indefinitely so this
behaviour is retained.

[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack_tcp: fix connection reopening
With your description I could reproduce the bug and actually you were
completely right: the code above is incorrect. Somehow I was able to
misread RFC1122 and mixed the roles :-(:
When a connection is >>closed actively<<, it MUST linger in
TIME-WAIT state for a time 2xMSL (Maximum Segment Lifetime).
However, it MAY >>accept<< a new SYN from the remote TCP to
reopen the connection directly from TIME-WAIT state, if it:
[...]
The fix is as follows: if the receiver initiated an active close, then the
sender may reopen the connection - otherwise try to figure out if we hold
a dead connection.

restores the old behaviour while still avoiding that memchr is called with

patch 487e9bf25cbae11b131d6a14bdbb3a6a77380837 in mainline.
It's possible to provoke unionfs (not yet in mainline, though in mm and
some distros) to hit shmem_writepage's BUG_ON(page_mapped(page)). I expect
it's possible to provoke the 2.6.23 ecryptfs in the same way (but the
2.6.24 ecryptfs no longer calls lower level's ->writepage).
This came to light with the recent find that AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE could
leak from tmpfs via write_cache_pages and unionfs to userspace. There's
already a fix (e423003028183df54f039dfda8b58c49e78c89d7 - writeback: don't
propagate AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE) in the tree for that, and it's okay so
far as it goes; but insufficient because it doesn't address the underlying
issue, that shmem_writepage expects to be called only by vmscan (relying on
backing_dev_info capabilities to prevent the normal writeback path from
ever approaching it).
That's an increasingly fragile assumption, and ramdisk_writepage (the other
source of AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATEs) is already careful to check
wbc->for_reclaim before returning it. Make the same check in
shmem_writepage, thereby sidestepping the page_mapped BUG also.

patch edaf420fdc122e7a42326fe39274c8b8c9b19d41 in mainline.
I ran into this problem on a system that was unable to obtain NTP sync
because the clock was running very slow (over 10000ppm slow). ntpd had
declared all of its peers 'reject' with 'peer_dist' reason.
On investigation, the tsc_khz variable was significantly incorrect
causing xtime to run slow. After a reboot tsc_khz was correct so I
did a reboot test to see how often the problem occurred:
Test was done on a 2000 Mhz Xeon system. Of 689 reboots, 8 of them
had unacceptable tsc_khz values (>500ppm):
range of tsc_khz # of boots % of boots
---------------- ---------- ----------
< 1999750 0 0.000%
1999750 - 1999800 21 3.048%
1999800 - 1999850 166 24.128%
1999850 - 1999900 241 35.029%
1999900 - 1999950 211 30.669%
1999950 - 2000000 42 6.105%
2000000 - 2000000 0 0.000%
2000050 - 2000100 0 0.000%
[...]
2000100 - 2015000 1 0.145% << BAD
2015000 - 2030000 6 0.872% << BAD
2030000 - 2045000 1 0.145% << BAD
2045000 < 0 0.000%
The worst boot was 2032.577 Mhz, over 1.5% off!
It appears that on rare occasions, mach_countup() is taking longer to
complete than necessary.
I suspect that this is caused by the CPU taking a periodic SMI
interrupt right at the end of the 30ms calibration loop. This would
cause the loop to delay while the SMI BIOS hander runs. The resulting
TSC value is beyond what it actually should be resulting in a higher
tsc_khz.
The below patch makes native_calculate_cpu_khz() take the best
(shortest duration, lowest khz) run of it's 3 calibration loops. If a
SMI goes off causing a bad result (long duration, higher khz) it will
be discarded.
With the patch applied, 300 boots of the same system produce good
results:
range of tsc_khz # of boots % of boots
---------------- ---------- ----------
< 1999750 0 0.000%
1999750 - 1999800 30 10.000%

[FUTEX]: Fix address computation in compat code.
[ Upstream commit: 3c5fd9c77d609b51c0bab682c9d40cbb496ec6f1 ]
compat_exit_robust_list() computes a pointer to the
futex entry in userspace as follows:
(void __user *)entry + futex_offset
'entry' is a 'struct robust_list __user *', and
'futex_offset' is a 'compat_long_t' (typically a 's32').
Things explode if the 32-bit sign bit is set in futex_offset.
Type promotion sign extends futex_offset to a 64-bit value before
adding it to 'entry'.
This triggered a problem on sparc64 running 32-bit applications which
would lock up a cpu looping forever in the fault handling for the
userspace load in handle_futex_death().
Compat userspace runs with address masking (wherein the cpu zeros out
the top 32-bits of every effective address given to a memory operation
instruction) so the sparc64 fault handler accounts for this by
zero'ing out the top 32-bits of the fault address too.
Since the kernel properly uses the compat_uptr interfaces, kernel side
accesses to compat userspace work too since they will only use
addresses with the top 32-bit clear.
Because of this compat futex layer bug we get into the following loop
when executing the get_user() load near the top of handle_futex_death():
1) load from address '0xfffffffff7f16bd8', FAULT
2) fault handler clears upper 32-bits, processes fault
for address '0xf7f16bd8' which succeeds
3) goto #1
I want to thank Bernd Zeimetz, Josip Rodin, and Fabio Massimo Di Nitto
for their tireless efforts helping me track down this bug.

SLUB: Fix memory leak by not reusing cpu_slab
Fix the memory leak that may occur when we attempt to reuse a cpu_slab
that was allocated while we reenabled interrupts in order to be able to
grow a slab cache. The per cpu freelist may contain objects and in that
situation we may overwrite the per cpu freelist pointer loosing objects.
This only occurs if we find that the concurrently allocated slab fits
our allocation needs.
If we simply always deactivate the slab then the freelist will be properly
reintegrated and the memory leak will go away.

The original meaning of the old test (p->state > TASK_STOPPED) was
"not dead", since it was before TASK_TRACED existed and before the
state/exit_state split. It was a wrong correction in commit

TASK_TRACED instead. It should have been changed when TASK_TRACED
was introducted and again when exit_state was introduced.

patch 6a22c57b8d2a62dea7280a6b2ac807a539ef0716 in mainline.
This reverts commit 2e1c49db4c640b35df13889b86b9d62215ade4b6.
First off, testing in Fedora has shown it to cause boot failures,
bisected down by Martin Ebourne, and reported by Dave Jobes. So the
commit will likely be reverted in the 2.6.23 stable kernels.
Secondly, in the 2.6.24 model, x86-64 has now grown support for
SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, which disables the relevant code anyway, so while the
bug is not visible any more, it's become invisible due to the code just
being irrelevant and no longer enabled on the only architecture that
this ever affected.

patch 9a24d04a3c26c223f22493492c5c9085b8773d4a upstream
While we were reviewing pageattr_32/64.c for unification,
Thomas Gleixner noticed the following serious SMP bug in
global_flush_tlb():
down_read(&init_mm.mmap_sem);
list_replace_init(&deferred_pages, &l);
up_read(&init_mm.mmap_sem);
this is SMP-unsafe because list_replace_init() done on two CPUs in
parallel can corrupt the list.
This bug has been introduced about a year ago in the 64-bit tree:
commit ea7322decb974a4a3e804f96a0201e893ff88ce3
Author: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
Date: Thu Dec 7 02:14:05 2006 +0100
[PATCH] x86-64: Speed and clean up cache flushing in change_page_attr
down_read(&init_mm.mmap_sem);
- dpage = xchg(&deferred_pages, NULL);
+ list_replace_init(&deferred_pages, &l);
up_read(&init_mm.mmap_sem);
the xchg() based version was SMP-safe, but list_replace_init() is not.
So this "cleanup" introduced a nasty bug.
why this bug never become prominent is a mystery - it can probably be
explained with the (still) relative obscurity of the x86_64 architecture.
the safe fix for now is to write-lock init_mm.mmap_sem.

patch 44ec6f3f89889a469773b1fd894f8fcc07c29cf in mainline
This attempts to address CVE-2006-6058
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-6058
first reported at http://projects.info-pull.com/mokb/MOKB-17-11-2006.html
Essentially a corrupted minix dir inode reporting a very large
i_size will loop for a very long time in minix_readdir, minix_find_entry,
etc, because on EIO they just move on to try the next page. This is
under the BKL, printk-storming as well. This can lock up the machine
for a very long time. Simply ratelimiting the printks gets things back
under control. Make the message a bit more informative while we're here.

Upstream as cbfb50e6e2e9c580848c0f51d37c24cdfb1cb704
Commit 9ead190b ("IB/uverbs: Don't serialize with ib_uverbs_idr_mutex")
rewrote how userspace objects are looked up in the uverbs module's
idrs, and introduced a severe bug in the process: there is no checking
that an operation is being performed by the right process any more.
Fix this by adding the missing check of uobj->context in __idr_get_uobj().
Apparently everyone is being very careful to only touch their own
objects, because this bug was introduced in June 2006 in 2.6.18, and
has gone undetected until now.

patch 3aa416b07f0adf01c090baab26fb70c35ec17623 in mainline.
lockdep: fix mismatched lockdep_depth/curr_chain_hash
It is possible for the current->curr_chain_key to become inconsistent with the
current index if the chain fails to validate. The end result is that future
lock_acquire() operations may inadvertently fail to find a hit in the cache
resulting in a new node being added to the graph for every acquire.
[ peterz: this might explain some of the lockdep is so _slow_ complaints. ]
[ mingo: this does not impact the correctness of validation, but may slow
down future operations significantly, if the chain gets very long. ]

The bank switching code assumes that the bank selector is set to 0
when the driver is loaded. This might not be the case. This is exactly
the same bug as was fixed in the w83627ehf driver two months ago:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=0956895aa6f8dc6a33210967252fd7787652537d
In practice, this bug was causing the sensor thermal types to be
improperly reported for my W83627THF the first time I was loading the
w83627hf driver. From the driver history, I'd say that it has been
broken since September 2005 (when we stopped resetting the chip by
default at driver load.)

This episode illustrates how an overused warning can train people to
ignore that warning, which winds up hiding bugs.
The warning
drivers/net/natsemi.c: In function ‘natsemi_remove1’:
drivers/net/natsemi.c:3222: warning: ignoring return value of
‘device_create_file’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result
is oft-ignored, even though at close inspection one notices this occurs
in the /remove/ function, not normally where creation occurs. A quick
s/create/remove/ and we are fixed, with the warning gone.

changeset 162f6690a65075b49f242d3c8cdb5caaa959a060 in mainline.
TCP V4 sequence numbers are 32bits, and RFC 793 assumed a 250 KHz clock.
In order to follow network speed increase, we can use a faster clock, but
we should limit this clock so that the delay between two rollovers is
greater than MSL (TCP Maximum Segment Lifetime : 2 minutes)
Choosing a 64 nsec clock should be OK, since the rollovers occur every
274 seconds.

changeset f8ab18d2d987a59ccbf0495032b2aef05b730037 in mainline.
Based upon a report and initial patch by Peter Lieven.
tcp4_md5sig_key and tcp6_md5sig_key need to start with
the exact same members as tcp_md5sig_key. Because they
are both cast to that type by tcp_v{4,6}_md5_do_lookup().
Unfortunately tcp{4,6}_md5sig_key use a u16 for the key
length instead of a u8, which is what tcp_md5sig_key
uses. This just so happens to work by accident on
little-endian, but on big-endian it doesn't.
Instead of casting, just place tcp_md5sig_key as the first member of
the address-family specific structures, adjust the access sites, and
kill off the ugly casts.
