The unix_dgram_recvmsg and unix_stream_recvmsg routines in net/af_unix.c utilize mutex_lock(&u->readlock) calls in order to serialize read operations of multiple threads on a single socket. This implies that, if all n threads of a process block in an AF_UNIX recv call trying to read data from the same socket, one of these threads will be sleeping in state TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and all others in state TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE. Provided that a particular signal is supposed to be handled by a signal handler defined by the process and that none of this threads is blocking the signal, the complete_signal routine in kernel/signal.c will select the 'first' such thread it happens to encounter when deciding which thread to notify that a signal is supposed to be handled and if this is one of the TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE threads, the signal won't be handled until the one thread not blocking on the u->readlock mutex is woken up because some data to process has arrived (if this ever happens). The included patch fixes this by changing mutex_lock to mutex_lock_interruptible and handling possible error returns in the same way interruptions are handled by the actual receive-code.

When a DNS resolver key is instantiated with an error indication, attempts to read that key will result in an oops because user_read() is expecting there to be a payload - and there isn't one [CVE-2011-1076]. Give the DNS resolver key its own read handler that returns the error cached in key->type_data.x[0] as an error rather than crashing. Also make the kenter() at the beginning of dns_resolver_instantiate() limit the amount of data it prints, since the data is not necessarily NUL-terminated. The buggy code was added in: commit 4a2d7892 Author: Wang Lei <wang840925@gmail.com> Date: Wed Aug 11 09:37:58 2010 +0100 Subject: DNS: If the DNS server returns an error, allow that to be cached [ver #2] This can trivially be reproduced by any user with the following program compiled with -lkeyutils: #include <stdlib.h> #include <keyutils.h> #include <err.h> static char payload[] = "#dnserror=6"; int main() { key_serial_t key; key = add_key("dns_resolver", "a", payload, sizeof(payload), KEY_SPEC_SESSION_KEYRING); if (key == -1) err(1, "add_key"); if (keyctl_read(key, NULL, 0) == -1) err(1, "read_key"); return 0; } What should happen is that keyctl_read() reports error 6 (ENXIO) to the user: dns-break: read_key: No such device or address but instead the kernel oopses. This cannot be reproduced with the 'keyutils add' or 'keyutils padd' commands as both of those cut the data down below the NUL termination that must be included in the data. Without this dns_resolver_instantiate() will return -EINVAL and the key will not be instantiated such that it can be read. The oops looks like: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000010 IP: [<ffffffff811b99f7>] user_read+0x4f/0x8f PGD 3bdf8067 PUD 385b9067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:19.0/irq CPU 0 Modules linked in: Pid: 2150, comm: dns-break Not tainted 2.6.38-rc7-cachefs+ #468 /DG965RY RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff811b99f7>] [<ffffffff811b99f7>] user_read+0x4f/0x8f RSP: 0018:ffff88003bf47f08 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: 0000000000000001 RBX: ffff88003b5ea378 RCX: ffffffff81972368 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ffff88003b5ea378 RBP: ffff88003bf47f28 R08: ffff88003be56620 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000395 R11: 0000000000000002 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: ffffffffffffffa1 FS: 00007feab5751700(0000) GS:ffff88003e000000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000000010 CR3: 000000003de40000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process dns-break (pid: 2150, threadinfo ffff88003bf46000, task ffff88003be56090) Stack: ffff88003b5ea378 ffff88003b5ea3a0 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 ffff88003bf47f68 ffffffff811b708e ffff88003c442bc8 0000000000000000 00000000004005a0 00007fffba368060 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 Call Trace: [<ffffffff811b708e>] keyctl_read_key+0xac/0xcf [<ffffffff811b7c07>] sys_keyctl+0x75/0xb6 [<ffffffff81001f7b>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Code: 75 1f 48 83 7b 28 00 75 18 c6 05 58 2b fb 00 01 be bb 00 00 00 48 c7 c7 76 1c 75 81 e8 13 c2 e9 ff 4c 8b b3 e0 00 00 00 4d 85 ed <41> 0f b7 5e 10 74 2d 4d 85 e4 74 28 e8 98 79 ee ff 49 39 dd 48 RIP [<ffffffff811b99f7>] user_read+0x4f/0x8f RSP <ffff88003bf47f08> CR2: 0000000000000010 Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> cc: Wang Lei <wang840925@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>

For some time is known that ASPM is causing troubles on r8169, i.e. make device randomly stop working without any errors in dmesg. Currently Tomi Leppikangas reports that system with r8169 device hangs with MCE errors when ASPM is enabled: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=642861#c4 Lets disable ASPM for r8169 devices at all, to avoid problems with r8169 PCIe devices at least for some users.

If we enable trace events to trace block actions, We use blk_fill_rwbs_rq to analyze the corresponding actions in request's cmd_flags, but we only choose the minor 2 bits from it, so most of other flags(e.g, REQ_SYNC) are missing. For example, with a sync write we get: write_test-2409 [001] 160.013869: block_rq_insert: 3,64 W 0 () 258135 + = 8 [write_test] Since now we have integrated the flags of both bio and request, it is safe to pass rq->cmd_flags directly to blk_fill_rwbs and blk_fill_rwbs_rq isn't needed any more. With this patch, after a sync write we get: write_test-2417 [000] 226.603878: block_rq_insert: 3,64 WS 0 () 258135 += 8 [write_test] Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@taobao.com> Acked-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

if directory has so many subdirectories that its link count is set to 1 (i.e. "can't tell accurately") and reiserfs_new_inode() fails, we shouldn't decrement the parent's link count in cleanup path; that's what DEC_DIR_INODE_NLINK() is for. As it is, we end up with parent suddenly getting zero i_nlink, with very unpleasant effects. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

commit 33941284 (RxRPC: Allow key payloads to be passed in XDR form) broke klog for me. I notice the v1 key struct had a kif_version field added: -struct rxkad_key { - u16 security_index; /* RxRPC header security index */ - u16 ticket_len; /* length of ticket[] */ - u32 expiry; /* time at which expires */ - u32 kvno; /* key version number */ - u8 session_key[8]; /* DES session key */ - u8 ticket[0]; /* the encrypted ticket */ -}; +struct rxrpc_key_data_v1 { + u32 kif_version; /* 1 */ + u16 security_index; + u16 ticket_length; + u32 expiry; /* time_t */ + u32 kvno; + u8 session_key[8]; + u8 ticket[0]; +}; However the code in rxrpc_instantiate strips it away: data += sizeof(kver); datalen -= sizeof(kver); Removing kif_version fixes my problem.

We service 2 queues (kcq1 and kcq2) in cnic_service_bnx2x_bh(). If the status block index has changed when servicing the kcq2, we must go back and check kcq1. The latest status block index will be used to acknowledge the interrupt, and without looping back to check kcq1, we may miss events on kcq1.
