'buffer' string is copied from userspace. It is not checked whether it is zero terminated. This may lead to overflow inside of simple_strtoul(). Changli Gao suggested to copy not more than user supplied 'size' bytes. It was introduced before the git epoch. Files "ipt_CLUSTERIP/*" are root writable only by default, however, on some setups permissions might be relaxed to e.g. network admin user.

commit f3c5c1bf (make ip_tables reentrant) introduced a race in handling the stackptr restore, at the end of ipt_do_table() We should do it before the call to xt_info_rdunlock_bh(), or we allow cpu preemption and another cpu overwrites stackptr of original one. A second fix is to change the underflow test to check the origptr value instead of 0 to detect underflow, or else we allow a jump from different hooks.

When the OF device driver bits were converted over to the platform device infrastructure in commit 74888760 ("dt/net: Eliminate users of of_platform_{,un}register_driver") we inadvertantly created probing problems in the OF case. The NIU driver creates a dummy platform device to represent the board that contains one or more child NIU devices. Unfortunately we use the same name, "niu", as the OF device driver itself uses. The result is that we try to probe the dummy "niu" parent device we create, and since it has a NULL ofdevice pointer etc. everything explodes: [783019.128243] niu: niu.c:v1.1 (Apr 22, 2010) [783019.128810] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference [783019.128949] tsk->{mm,active_mm}->context = 000000000000039e [783019.129078] tsk->{mm,active_mm}->pgd = fffff803afc5a000 [783019.129206] \|/ ____ \|/ [783019.129213] "@'/ .. \`@" [783019.129220] /_| \__/ |_\ [783019.129226] \__U_/ [783019.129378] modprobe(2004): Oops [#1] [783019.129423] TSTATE: 0000000011001602 TPC: 0000000010052ff8 TNPC: 000000000061bbb4 Y: 00000000 Not tainted [783019.129542] TPC: <niu_of_probe+0x3c/0x2dc [niu]> [783019.129624] g0: 8080000000000000 g1: 0000000000000000 g2: 0000000010056000 g3: 0000000000000002 [783019.129733] g4: fffff803fc1da0c0 g5: fffff800441e2000 g6: fffff803fba84000 g7: 0000000000000000 [783019.129842] o0: fffff803fe7df010 o1: 0000000010055700 o2: 0000000000000000 o3: fffff803fbacaca0 [783019.129951] o4: 0000000000000080 o5: 0000000000777908 sp: fffff803fba866e1 ret_pc: 0000000010052ff4 [783019.130083] RPC: <niu_of_probe+0x38/0x2dc [niu]> [783019.130165] l0: fffff803fe7df010 l1: fffff803fbacafc0 l2: fffff803fbacaca0 l3: ffffffffffffffed [783019.130273] l4: 0000000000000000 l5: 000000007fffffff l6: fffff803fba86f40 l7: 0000000000000001 [783019.130382] i0: fffff803fe7df000 i1: fffff803fc20aba0 i2: 0000000000000000 i3: 0000000000000001 [783019.130490] i4: 0000000000000000 i5: 0000000000000000 i6: fffff803fba867a1 i7: 000000000062038c [783019.130614] I7: <platform_drv_probe+0xc/0x20> Fix by simply renaming the parent device to "niu-board".

The calculation is off-by-one. It should be "end - start + 1". This patch fixes it to use resource_size() instead. Oddly, the code already uses resource size correctly a couple lines earlier when it calls request_mem_region() for this memory.

Whenever we enter the IP stack proper from bridge netfilter we need to ensure that the skb is in a form the IP stack expects it to be in. The entry point on NF_FORWARD did not meet the requirements of the IP stack, therefore leading to potential crashes/panics. This patch fixes the problem.

As specified by errata eTSEC49 of MPC8548 and errata eTSEC12 of MPC83xx, older revisions of gianfar controllers will be unable to calculate a TCP/UDP packet checksum for some alignments of the appropriate FCB.

While trying to track down some NFS problems with BTRFS, I kept noticing I was getting -EACCESS for no apparent reason. Eric Paris and printk() helped me figure out that it was SELinux that was giving me grief, with the following denial type=AVC msg=audit(1290013638.413:95): avc: denied { 0x800000 } for pid=1772 comm="nfsd" name="" dev=sda1 ino=256 scontext=system_u:system_r:kernel_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s0 tclass=file Turns out this is because in d_obtain_alias if we can't find an alias we create one and do all the normal instantiation stuff, but we don't do the security_d_instantiate. Usually we are protected from getting a hashed dentry that hasn't yet run security_d_instantiate() by the parent's i_mutex, but obviously this isn't an option there, so in order to deal with the case that a second thread comes in and finds our new dentry before we get to run security_d_instantiate(), we go ahead and call it if we find a dentry already. Eric assures me that this is ok as the code checks to see if the dentry has been initialized already so calling security_d_instantiate() against the same dentry multiple times is ok. With this patch I'm no longer getting errant -EACCESS values. Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <josef@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Have it nested inside ->i_mutex. Instead of using follow_down() under namespace_sem, followed by grabbing i_mutex and checking that mountpoint to be is not dead, do the following: grab i_mutex check that it's not dead grab namespace_sem see if anything is mounted there if not, we've won otherwise drop locks put_path on what we had replace with what's mounted retry everything with new mountpoint to be New helper (lock_mount()) does that. do_add_mount(), do_move_mount(), do_loopback() and pivot_root() switched to it; in case of the last two that eliminates a race we used to have - original code didn't do follow_down().
