We have some nasty issues with 2.6.12-rc6. Any request to scan on the lpfc or qla2xxx FC adapters will oops. What is happening is the system is defaulting to non-transport registered targets, which inherit the parent of the scan. On this second scan, performed by the attribute, the parent becomes the shost instead of the rport. The slave functions in the 2 FC adapters use starget_to_rport() routines, which incorrectly map the shost as an rport pointer. Additionally, this pointed out other weaknesses: - If the target structure is torn down outside of the transport, we have no method for it to be regenerated at the proper parent. - We have race conditions on the target being allocated by both the midlayer scan (parent=shost) and by the fc transport (parent=rport).

Discussion associated with this bug can be referenced at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4940 where it was agreed to use pci_request_regions in both the dpt_i2o and the i2o driver to prevent both drivers loading on the same adapter(s).

I'm resending this patch, because I still believe it's the correct fix. Tested before/after applying the patch with a test application available from: http://www.inf.bme.hu/~mszeredi/nstest.c Bind mount from a foreign namespace results in an un-removable mount. The reason is that mnt->mnt_namespace is copied from the old mount in clone_mnt(). Because of this check_mnt() in sys_umount() will fail. The solution is to set mnt->mnt_namespace to current->namespace in clone_mnt(). clone_mnt() is either called from do_loopback() or copy_tree(). copy_tree() is called from do_loopback() or copy_namespace(). When called (directly or indirectly) from do_loopback(), always current->namspace is being modified: check_mnt(nd->mnt). So setting mnt->mnt_namespace to current->namspace is the right thing to do. When called from copy_namespace(), the setting of mnt_namespace is irrelevant, since mnt_namespace is reset later in that function for all copied mounts. Jamie said: This patch is correct. The old code was buggy for more fundamental and serious reason: it broke the invariant that a tree of vfsmnts all have the same value of mnt_namespace (and the same for the mnt_list list).

For 64-bit BAR[i] only pci_dev->resource[i] is valid, ->resource[i+1] slot is unused and contains zeroes in all fields. So when we update a PCI BAR, all we need is just to check that we're going to update a _valid_ resource. Also make sure to write high bits - use "x >> 16 >> 16" (rather than the simpler ">> 32") to avoid warnings on 32-bit architectures where we're not going to have any high bits.

When we did the handle_mm_fault cleanup and get_user_page() race fixes, handle_mm_fault turned into an inline function that called the real __handle_mm_fault() code. The export needed for MOL on ppc wasn't updated to match the new world order, though. Turn it into a GPL export while at it, since this is all about internal interfaces and MOL is GPL'd anwyay.

This uses the new deflateBound() thing to sanity-check the input to the zlib decompressor before we even bother to start reading in the blocks. Problem noted by Tim Yamin <plasmaroo@gentoo.org>
-
Linus Torvalds authored
It's not the real deflateBound() in newer zlib libraries, partly because the upcoming usage of it won't have the "stream" available, so we can't have the same interfaces anyway.

My patch in commit fa72b903 incorrectly removed blk_queue_tag->real_max_depth. The original resize implementation was incorrect in the following points. * actual allocation size of tag_index was shorter than real_max_size, but assumed to be of the same size, possibly causing memory access beyond the allocated area. * bits in tag_map between max_deptn and real_max_depth were initialized to 1's, making the tags permanently reserved. In an attempt to fix above two bugs, I had removed allocation optimization in init_tag_map and real_max_size. Tag map/index were allocated and freed immediately during resize. Unfortunately, I wasn't considering that tag map/index can be resized dynamically with tags beyond new_depth active. This led to accessing freed area after shrinking tags and led to the following bug reporting thread on linux-scsi. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=112319898111885&w=2 To fix the problem, I've revived real_max_depth without allocation optimization in init_tag_map, and Andrew Vasquez confirmed that the problem was fixed. As Jens is not going to be available for a week, he asked me to make sure that this patch reaches you. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=112325778530886&w=2 Also, a comment was added to make sure that real_max_size is needed for dynamic shrinking.

This patch fixes a crash in the hugepage code. unmap_hugepage_area() was assuming that (due to prefault) PTEs must exist for all the area in question. However, this may not be the case, if mmap() encounters an error before the prefault and calls unmap_region() to clean up any partial mapping. Depending on the hugepage configuration, this crash can be triggered by an unpriveleged user.

This patch includes support for the new Infineon Trusted Platform Module SLB 9635 TT 1.2 and does further include ACPI-support for both chip versions (SLD 9630 TT 1.1 and SLB9635 TT 1.2). Since the ioports and configuration registers are not correctly set on some machines, the configuration is now done via PNPACPI, which reads out the correct values out of the DSDT-table. Note that you have to have CONFIG_PNP, CONFIG_ACPI_BUS and CONFIG_PNPACPI enabled to run this driver (assuming that mainboards including a TPM do have the need for ACPI anyway).
