Sometimes it is possible and reasonable to adjust the parent clock rate to improve precision of the child clock, e.g., if the child clock has no siblings. clk_round_parent() is a new addition to the SH clock-framework API, that implements such an optimization for child clocks with divisors, taking all integer values in a range.

While scanning the floopy code due to c093ee4f ("floppy: fix use-after-free in module load failure path"), I found one more instance of trying to access disk->queue pointer after doing put_disk() on gendisk. For some reason , floppy moule still loads/unloads fine. The object is probably still around with right pointer values. o There seems to be one more instance of trying to cleanup the request queue after we have called put_disk() on associated gendisk. o This fix is more out of code inspection. Even without this fix for some reason I am able to load/unload floppy module without any issues. o Floppy module loads/unloads fine after the fix.

Commit 27ae60f8 ("ipw2x00: replace "ieee80211" with "libipw" where appropriate") changed DRV_NAME to be "libipw", but didn't properly fix up the places where it was used to specify the name for the /proc/net/ directory. For backwards compatibility reasons, that directory name remained "ieee80211", but due to the DRV_NAME change, the error case printouts and the cleanup functions now used "libipw" instead. Which made it all fail badly. For example, on module unload as reported by Randy: WARNING: at fs/proc/generic.c:816 remove_proc_entry+0x156/0x35e() name 'libipw' because it's trying to unregister a /proc directory that obviously doesn't even exist. Clean it all up to use DRV_PROCNAME for the actual /proc directory name. Reported-and-tested-by: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com> Cc: Pavel Roskin <proski@gnu.org> Cc: John W.

Commit 48821184 ("floppy: switch to one queue per drive instead of sharing a queue") introduced a use-after-free. We do "put_disk()" on the disk device _before_ we then clean up the queue associated with that disk. Move the put_disk() down to avoid dereferencing a free'd data structure.

posix-cpu-timers.c correctly assumes that the dying process does posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() and removes all !CPUCLOCK_PERTHREAD timers from signal->cpu_timers list. But, it also assumes that timer->it.cpu.task is always the group leader, and thus the dead ->task means the dead thread group. This is obviously not true after de_thread() changes the leader. After that almost every posix_cpu_timer_ method has problems. It is not simple to fix this bug correctly. First of all, I think that timer->it.cpu should use struct pid instead of task_struct. Also, the locking should be reworked completely. In particular, tasklist_lock should not be used at all. This all needs a lot of nontrivial and hard-to-test changes. Change __exit_signal() to do posix_cpu_timers_exit_group() when the old leader dies during exec. This is not the fix, just the temporary hack to hide the problem for 2.6.37 and stable. IOW, this is obviously wrong but this is what we currently have anyway: cpu timers do not work after mt exec. In theory this change adds another race. The exiting leader can detach the timers which were attached to the new leader. However, the window between de_thread() and release_task() is small, we can pretend that sys_timer_create() was called before de_thread().

adapter->id is deprecated and not set by any adapter driver, so this was certainly not what the author wanted to use. adapter->nr maybe, but as dev_err() already includes this value, as well as the client's address, there's no point repeating them.

Structures kvm_vcpu_events, kvm_debugregs, kvm_pit_state2 and kvm_clock_data are copied to userland with some padding and reserved fields unitialized. It leads to leaking of contents of kernel stack memory. We have to initialize them to zero. In patch v1 Jan Kiszka suggested to fill reserved fields with zeros instead of memset'ting the whole struct. It makes sense as these fields are explicitly marked as padding. No more fields need zeroing. KVM-Stable-Tag. Signed-off-by: Vasiliy Kulikov <segooon@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>

I have observed the following bug trigger: 1. userspace calls GET_DIRTY_LOG 2. kvm_mmu_slot_remove_write_access is called and makes a page ro 3. page fault happens and makes the page writeable fault is logged in the bitmap appropriately 4. kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log swaps slot pointers a lot of time passes 5. guest writes into the page 6. userspace calls GET_DIRTY_LOG At point (5), bitmap is clean and page is writeable, thus, guest modification of memory is not logged and GET_DIRTY_LOG returns an empty bitmap. The rule is that all pages are either dirty in the current bitmap, or write-protected, which is violated here. It seems that just moving kvm_mmu_slot_remove_write_access down to after the slot pointer swap should fix this bug. KVM-Stable-Tag. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

We can optimize kernel/relay.c::relay_alloc_page_array() slightly by using vzalloc. The patch makes these changes: - use vzalloc instead of vmalloc+memset. - remove redundant local variable 'array'. - declare local 'pa_size' as const.

Jeff Layton authored
This patch is based on Dan's original patch. His original description is below: Smatch complained about a couple checking for NULL after dereferencing bugs. I'm not super familiar with the code so I did the conservative thing and move the dereferences after the checks. The dereferences in cifs_lock() and cifs_fsync() were added in ba00ba64 "cifs: make various routines use the cifsFileInfo->tcon pointer". The dereference in find_writable_file() was added in 6508d904 "cifs: have find_readable/writable_file filter by fsuid". The comments there say it's possible to trigger the NULL dereference under stress.

We were using nlmsg_find_attr() to look up the bytecode by attribute when auditing, but then just using the first attribute when actually running bytecode. So, if we received a message with two attribute elements, where only the second had type INET_DIAG_REQ_BYTECODE, we would validate and run different bytecode strings.
