2011-02-15sparc64: Fix NMI startup bug which also breaks perf.David S. Miller3-2/+4
Doing NMI startup as an early initcall doesn't work because we need to have SMP started up by then. So we'd only NMI startup one cpu, which causes perf PMU grab to BUG because the nmi_active count isn't what it's supposed to be. This also points out that we don't have proper CPU up/down notifiers for the NMI code which will need to be fixed at some point. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>

2011-02-15spi/pxa2xx pci: fix the release - remove raceSebastian Andrzej Siewior1-40/+21
Right now the platform device and its platform data is included in one big struct which requires its custom ->release function. The problem with the release function within the driver is that it might be called after the driver was removed because someone was holding a reference to it and it was not called right after platform_device_unregister(). So we also free the platform device memory to which one might hold a reference. This patch uses the normal pdev functions so this kind of race does not occur.

2011-02-15[SCSI] qla2xxx: Return DID_NO_CONNECT when FC device is lost.Andrew Vasquez1-1/+0
If the target device gets lost, this fix is needed, as it causes negative unintended responses on basic I/O tests. If the target device gets lost, the upstream qla2xxx driver returns SCSI_MLQUEUE_TARGET_BUSY which causes an immediate retry without drop in the number of allowed retries. This semantic change, as a result of removing FC_DEVICE_LOST check is reasonable, as it only extends a short transitional period, until the transport is called to notify that the rport as lost (fc_remote_port_delete()). Once transport notification is done, fc_remote_port_chkready() check will take over.

2011-02-15pci: use security_capable() when checking capablities during config space readChris Wright1-1/+2
This reintroduces commit 47970b1b which was subsequently reverted as f00eaeea. The original change was broken and caused X startup failures and generally made privileged processes incapable of reading device dependent config space. The normal capable() interface returns true on success, but the LSM interface returns 0 on success. This thinko is now fixed in this patch, and has been confirmed to work properly. So, once again...Eric Paris noted that commit de139a3 ("pci: check caps from sysfs file open to read device dependent config space") caused the capability check to bypass security modules and potentially auditing. Rectify this by calling security_capable() when checking the open file's capabilities for config space reads.

2011-02-14arp_notify: unconditionally send gratuitous ARP for NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS.Ian Campbell1-10/+20
NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEER is an explicit request by the driver to send a link notification while NETDEV_UP/NETDEV_CHANGEADDR generate link notifications as a sort of side effect. In the later cases the sysctl option is present because link notification events can have undesired effects e.g. if the link is flapping. I don't think this applies in the case of an explicit request from a driver. This patch makes NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEER unconditional, if preferred we could add a new sysctl for this case which defaults to on. This change causes Xen post-migration ARP notifications (which cause switches to relearn their MAC tables etc) to be sent by default.

2011-02-14cxgb4vf: Quiesce Virtual Interfaces on shutdown ...Casey Leedom1-0/+41
When a Virtual Machine is rebooted, KVM currently fails to issue a Function Level Reset against any "Attached PCI Devices" (AKA "PCI Passthrough"). In addition to leaving the attached device in a random state in the next booted kernel (which sort of violates the entire idea of a reboot reseting hardware state), this leaves our peer thinking that the link is still up. (Note that a bug has been filed with the KVM folks, #25332, but there's been no response on that as of yet.)

2011-02-14btrfs: prevent heap corruption in btrfs_ioctl_space_info()Dan Rosenberg1-2/+8
Commit bf5fc093c5b625e4259203f1cee7ca73488a5620 refactored btrfs_ioctl_space_info() and introduced several security issues. space_args.space_slots is an unsigned 64-bit type controlled by a possibly unprivileged caller. The comparison as a signed int type allows providing values that are treated as negative and cause the subsequent allocation size calculation to wrap, or be truncated to 0. By providing a size that's truncated to 0, kmalloc() will return ZERO_SIZE_PTR. It's also possible to provide a value smaller than the slot count. The subsequent loop ignores the allocation size when copying data in, resulting in a heap overflow or write to ZERO_SIZE_PTR. The fix changes the slot count type and comparison typecast to u64, which prevents truncation or signedness errors, and also ensures that we don't copy more data than we've allocated in the subsequent loop. Note that zero-size allocations are no longer possible since there is already an explicit check for space_args.space_slots being 0 and truncation of this value is no longer an issue.

2011-02-14Btrfs: don't release pages when we can't clear the uptodate bitsChris Mason1-1/+9
Btrfs tracks uptodate state in an rbtree as well as in the page bits. This is supposed to enable us to use block sizes other than the page size, but there are a few parts still missing before that completely works. But, our readpage routine trusts this additional range based tracking of uptodateness, much in the same way the buffer head up to date bits are trusted for the other filesystems. The problem is that sometimes we need to allocate memory in order to split records in the rbtree, even when we are just clearing bits. This can be difficult when our clearing function is called GFP_ATOMIC, which can happen in the releasepage path. So, what happens today looks like this: releasepage called with GFP_ATOMIC btrfs_releasepage calls clear_extent_bit clear_extent_bit fails to allocate ram, leaving the up to date bit set btrfs_releasepage returns success The end result is the page being gone, but btrfs thinking the range is up to date. Later on if someone tries to read that same page, the btrfs readpage code will return immediately thinking the page is already up to date. This commit fixes things to fail the releasepage when we can't clear the extent state bits. It covers both data pages and metadata tree blocks. Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <[email protected]>
