      cpuimx27: fix i2c bus selection · 4793ca40
      Eric Bénard authored
      Recent clean of i.MX devices registration changed the i2C bus number
      selected for our platform (Freescale start peripheral ID at 1, kernel
      now start it at 0 so i.MX27's i2c 1 is kernel's i2c 0).
      Without this fix, i2c is unusable on this platform.

      ARM: 6435/1: Fix HWCAP_TLS flag for ARM11MPCore/Cortex-A9 · c0bb5862
      Tony Lindgren authored
      Commit 14eff181 added proper
      detection for ARM11MPCore/Cortex-A9 instead of detecting them
      as ARMv7. However, it was missing the HWCAP_TLS flags.
      
      HWCAP_TLS is needed if support for earlier ARMv6 is compiled
      into the same kernel. Without HWCAP_TLS flags the userspace
      won't work unless nosmp is specified:

      ARM: 6436/1: AT91: Fix power-saving in idle-mode on 926T processors · 5c189208
      Anders Larsen authored
      According to Atmel, their 926T processors (AT91 post RM9200) requires
      'Wait for Interrupt' mode be entered right after disabling the processor clock
      in order to minimise current consumption when idle, so do both provided we're
      not running on a 920T (an RM9200).
      
      Furthermore, get rid of the #ifndef CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL, since arch_idle()
      can be turned off completely with the kernel parameter 'nohlt'.

      MN10300: Fix flush_icache_range() · 57cf4f78
      David Howells authored
      flush_icache_range() is given virtual addresses to describe the region.  It
      deals with these by attempting to translate them through the current set of
      page tables.
      
      This is fine for userspace memory and vmalloc()'d areas as they are governed by
      page tables.  However, since the regions above 0x80000000 aren't translated
      through the page tables by the MMU, the kernel doesn't bother to set up page
      tables for them (see paging_init()).
      
      This means flush_icache_range() as it stands cannot be used to flush regions of
      the VM area between 0x80000000 and 0x9fffffff where the kernel resides if the
      data cache is operating in WriteBack mode.
      
      To fix this, make flush_icache_range() first check for addresses in the upper
      half of VM space and deal with them appropriately, before dealing with any
      range in the page table mapped area.
      
      Ordinarily, this is not a problem, but it has the capacity to make kprobes and
      kgdb malfunction.  It should not affect gdbstub, signal frame setup or module
      loading as gdb has its own flush functions, and the others take place in the
      page table mapped area only.

      reiserfs: fix unwanted reiserfs lock recursion · 9d8117e7
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      Prevent from recursively locking the reiserfs lock in reiserfs_unpack()
      because we may call journal_begin() that requires the lock to be taken
      only once, otherwise it won't be able to release the lock while taking
      other mutexes, ending up in inverted dependencies between the journal
      mutex and the reiserfs lock for example.
      
      This fixes:

      reiserfs: fix dependency inversion between inode and reiserfs mutexes · 3f259d09
      Frederic Weisbecker authored
      The reiserfs mutex already depends on the inode mutex, so we can't lock
      the inode mutex in reiserfs_unpack() without using the safe locking API,
      because reiserfs_unpack() is always called with the reiserfs mutex locked.
      
      This fixes:
      
        =======================================================

      I moved couple years ago, so let's update my email and snail mail.
      
      And I do not have any access to Matrox hardware anymore, and I'm quite
      unresponsive to matroxfb bug reports (sorry Alan), so saying that I'm
      maintainer is a bit far fetched.
      
      For ncpfs I do not use ncpfs in my daily life either, but at least I can
      test that one, so I can stay listed here for odd fixes.

      lib/list_sort: do not pass bad pointers to cmp callback · f015ac3e
      Don Mullis authored
      If the original list is a POT in length, the first callback from line 73
      will pass a==b both pointing to the original list_head.  This is dangerous
      because the 'list_sort()' user can use 'container_of()' and accesses the
      "containing" object, which does not necessary exist for the list head.  So
      the user can access RAM which does not belong to him.  If this is a write
      access, we can end up with memory corruption.

      sys_semctl: fix kernel stack leakage · 982f7c2b
      Dan Rosenberg authored
      The semctl syscall has several code paths that lead to the leakage of
      uninitialized kernel stack memory (namely the IPC_INFO, SEM_INFO,
      IPC_STAT, and SEM_STAT commands) during the use of the older, obsolete
      version of the semid_ds struct.
      
      The copy_semid_to_user() function declares a semid_ds struct on the stack
      and copies it back to the user without initializing or zeroing the
      "sem_base", "sem_pending", "sem_pending_last", and "undo" pointers,
      allowing the leakage of 16 bytes of kernel stack memory.
      
      The code is still reachable on 32-bit systems - when calling semctl()
      newer glibc's automatically OR the IPC command with the IPC_64 flag, but
      invoking the syscall directly allows users to use the older versions of
      the struct.

      kfifo: fix scatterlist usage · 399f1e30
      Ira W. Snyder authored
      The kfifo_dma family of functions use sg_mark_end() on the last element in
      their scatterlist.  This forces use of a fresh scatterlist for each DMA
      operation, which makes recycling a single scatterlist impossible.
      
      Change the behavior of the kfifo_dma functions to match the usage of the
      dma_map_sg function.  This means that users must respect the returned
      nents value.  The sample code is updated to reflect the change.
      
      This bug is trivial to cause: call kfifo_dma_in_prepare() such that it
      prepares a scatterlist with a single entry comprising the whole fifo.
      This is the case when you map the entirety of a newly created empty fifo.
      This causes the setup_sgl() function to mark the first scatterlist entry
      as the end of the chain, no matter what comes after it.
      
      Afterwards, add and remove some data from the fifo such that another call
      to kfifo_dma_in_prepare() will create two scatterlist entries.  It returns
      nents=2.  However, due to the previous sg_mark_end() call, sg_is_last()
      will now return true for the first scatterlist element.  This causes the
      sample code to print a single scatterlist element when it should print
      two.
      
      By removing the call to sg_mark_end(), we make the API as similar as
      possible to the DMA mapping API.  All users are required to respect the
      returned nents.

      cifs: prevent infinite recursion in cifs_reconnect_tcon · f569599a
      Jeff Layton authored
      cifs_reconnect_tcon is called from smb_init. After a successful
      reconnect, cifs_reconnect_tcon will call reset_cifs_unix_caps. That
      function will, in turn call CIFSSMBQFSUnixInfo and CIFSSMBSetFSUnixInfo.
      Those functions also call smb_init.
      
      It's possible for the session and tcon reconnect to succeed, and then
      for another cifs_reconnect to occur before CIFSSMBQFSUnixInfo or
      CIFSSMBSetFSUnixInfo to be called. That'll cause those functions to call
      smb_init and cifs_reconnect_tcon again, ad infinitum...
      
      Break the infinite recursion by having those functions use a new
      smb_init variant that doesn't attempt to perform a reconnect.

      Not enabling fbdev at load time makes it possible to co-operate with

      However, if 3D resources are active when VT switching, we're currently

      This fixes a bug where we previously lost 3D state during VT switch.
