The cdc_ncm driver still has a few places where stack variables are passed to the cdc_ncm_do_request function. This triggers a stack trace in lib/dma-debug.c if the CONFIG_DEBUG_DMA_API option is set. Adjust these calls to pass parameters that have been allocated with kzalloc.

The vmxnet3 driver enables vlan filters if filtering is enabled for any vlan. In promiscuous mode the filter table is cleared to in order to disable filtering. However, if a vlan device is subsequently created that vlan will be added to the filter, re-engaging it. As a result, not only do we not see all the vlans in promiscuous mode, we don't even see vlans for which a filter was previously created. CC: Scott J.

When the Manageability Engine (ME) is enabled on 82579, it periodically accesses some MAC CSR registers. There is an arbiter in hardware which prevents simultaneous access of these registers by the host software, i.e. the driver. There is a hardware bug in the aribter that signals a host access of the registers later than it actually happens. A write of the Transmit or Receive Descriptor Tail register could result in an incorrect value if the driver and ME perform simultaneous accesses which could result in an access to an invalid memory address. This would return an Unsupported Request which could hang the hardware. Workaround the issue by checking the FWSM register bit24 which is set by ME before it accesses the MAC CSR registers.

The MAC can drop short packets when the PHY detects noise on the line at 100Mbps due to a timing issue. Workaround the issue by increasing the PLL counter so the PHY properly recognizes the synchronization pattern from the MAC.

On 82577/8/9 in half-duplex when a received packet is passed from the PHY to the MAC, if too many preamble octects are stripped from the packet before arriving at the MAC, it can be misintrepeted as an in-band message rather than an actual frame. For example, if the frame contents resembled an interrupt request in-band message, it would trigger a false interrupt. In most cases, the packet is just dropped. By reducing the number of preamble octets stripped from the beginning of the frame when passing it from the PHY to the MAC, the MAC will interpret the frame properly. An additional uses of the magic PHY_REG(770, 16) have been updated with a define introduced with this patch.

Just like files-layout, blocks & objects layouts are part of the NFS 4.1 protocol and should be automatically selected if NFS_4_1 is selected. The small problem is that these depend on other Kernel support being present, while files only depends on NFS itself. This patch removes from the user choice the presence of objects and blocks layout. But makes sure these are selected only if the depended subsystems are present in the Kernel.

Commit df5e6223 ("ext4: fix deadlock in ext4_symlink() in ENOSPC conditions") recalculated the number of credits needed for a long symlink, in the process of splitting it into two transactions. However, the first credit calculation under-counted because if selinux is enabled, credits are needed to create the selinux xattr as well. Overrunning the reservation will result in an OOPS in jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() due to this assert: J_ASSERT_JH(jh, handle->h_buffer_credits > 0); Fix this by increasing the reservation size.

The patch http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/13/226 introduced an RLIMIT_NPROC check in set_user() to check for NPROC exceeding via setuid() and similar functions. Before the check there was a possibility to greatly exceed the allowed number of processes by an unprivileged user if the program relied on rlimit only. But the check created new security threat: many poorly written programs simply don't check setuid() return code and believe it cannot fail if executed with root privileges. So, the check is removed in this patch because of too often privilege escalations related to buggy programs. The NPROC can still be enforced in the common code flow of daemons spawning user processes. Most of daemons do fork()+setuid()+execve(). The check introduced in execve() (1) enforces the same limit as in setuid() and (2) doesn't create similar security issues. Neil Brown suggested to track what specific process has exceeded the limit by setting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED process flag. With the change only this process would fail on execve(), and other processes' execve() behaviour is not changed. Solar Designer suggested to re-check whether NPROC limit is still exceeded at the moment of execve(). If the process was sleeping for days between set*uid() and execve(), and the NPROC counter step down under the limit, the defered execve() failure because NPROC limit was exceeded days ago would be unexpected. If the limit is not exceeded anymore, we clear the flag on successful calls to execve() and fork(). The flag is also cleared on successful calls to set_user() as the limit was exceeded for the previous user, not the current one. Similar check was introduced in -ow patches (without the process flag). v3 - clear PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED on successful calls to set_user().
