sctp_rcv(). The goal is to hold the ref on the association/endpoint throughout the state-machine process. We accomplish like this: /* ref on the assoc/ep is taken during lookup */ if owned_by_user(sk) sctp_add_backlog(skb, sk); else inqueue_push(skb, sk); /* drop the ref on the assoc/ep */ However, in sctp_add_backlog() we take the ref on assoc/ep and hold it while the skb is on the backlog queue. This allows us to get rid of the sock_hold/sock_put in the lookup routines. Now sctp_backlog_rcv() needs to account for potential association move. In the unlikely event that association moved, we need to retest if the new socket is locked by user. If we don't this, we may have two packets racing up the stack toward the same socket and we can't deal with it. If the new socket is still locked, we'll just add the skb to its backlog continuing to hold the ref on the association. This get's rid of the need to move packets from one backlog to another and it also safe in case new packets arrive on the same backlog queue. The last step, is to lock the new socket when we are moving the association to it. This is needed in case any new packets arrive on the association when it moved. We want these to go to the backlog since we would like to avoid the race between this new packet and a packet that may be sitting on the backlog queue of the old socket toward the same association.

Solar Designer authored
Solar Designer found a race condition in do_add_counters(). The beginning of paddc is supposed to be the same as tmp which was sanity-checked above, but it might not be the same in reality. In case the integer overflow and/or the race condition are triggered, paddc->num_counters might not match the allocation size for paddc. If the check below (t->private->number != paddc->num_counters) nevertheless passes (perhaps this requires the race condition to be triggered), IPT_ENTRY_ITERATE() would read kernel memory beyond the allocation size, potentially causing an oops or leaking sensitive data (e.g., passwords from host system or from another VPS) via counter increments. This requires CAP_NET_ADMIN.

The Coverity checker spotted that we may leak 'hold' in net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_recent.c::checkentry() when the following is true: if (!curr_table->status_proc) { ... if(!curr_table) { ... return 0; <-- here we leak. Simply moving an existing vfree(hold); up a bit avoids the possible leak. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

Re-enable posted writes for status FIFO. Besides bringing back a very minor bandwidth tweak from Linux 2.6.15.x and older, this also fixes an interoperability regression since 2.6.16: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6356 (sbp2: scsi_add_device failed.

Apple decided to copy some USB stupidity over to FireWire. The sector number returned by iPods from read_capacity is one too many. This may cause I/O errors, especially if the kernel is configured for EFI partition support. We use the same workaround as usb-storage but have to check for different model IDs. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=114233262300001 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187409 Acknowledgements: Diagnosis and therapy by Mathieu Chouquet-Stringer <ml2news@free.fr>, additional data about affected and unaffected Apple hardware from Vladimir Kotal, Sander De Graaf, Bryan Olmstead and Hugh Dixon.

Grand unification of the three types of workarounds we have so far. The "skip mode page 8" workaround is now limited to devices which pretend to be of TYPE_DISK instead of TYPE_RBC. This workaround is no longer enabled for Initio bridges. Patch update in anticipation of more workarounds: - Add module parameter "workarounds". - Deprecate parameter "force_inquiry_hack". - Compose the blacklist of a compound type for better readability and extensibility. - Remove a now unused #define.

Angelo P. Castellani authored
From: "Angelo P. Castellani" <angelo.castellani+lkml@gmail.com> Using NewReno, if a sk_buff is timed out and is accounted as lost_out, it should also be removed from the sacked_out. This is necessary because recovery using NewReno fast retransmit could take up to a lot RTTs and the sk_buff RTO can expire without actually being really lost. left_out = sacked_out + lost_out in_flight = packets_out - left_out + retrans_out Using NewReno without this patch, on very large network losses, left_out becames bigger than packets_out + retrans_out (!!). For this reason unsigned integer in_flight overflows to 2^32 - something. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

David Brownell authored
This fixes two problems triggered by the MMC stack updating clocks: - SPI masters driver should accept a max clock speed of zero; that's one convention for marking idle devices. (Presumably that helps controllers that don't autogate clocks to "off" when not in use.) - There are more than 1000 nanoseconds per millisecond; setting the clock down to 125 KHz now works properly. Showing once again that Zero (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero) is still an inexhaustible number of bugs.

We need to be able to have a "SPI bus 0" matching chip numbering; but that number was wrongly used to flag dynamic allocation of a bus number.
