Currently selinux_sb_copy_data requires an entire page be allocated to *orig when the function is called. This "requirement" is based on the fact that we call copy_page(in_save, nosec_save) and in_save = orig when the data is not FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA. This means that if a caller were to call do_kern_mount with only about 10 bytes of options, they would get passed here and then we would corrupt PAGE_SIZE - 10 bytes of memory (with all zeros.) Currently it appears all in kernel FS's use one page of data so this has not been a problem. An out of kernel FS did just what is described above and it would almost always panic shortly after they tried to mount. From looking else where in the kernel it is obvious that this string of data must always be null terminated. (See example in do_mount where it always zeros the last byte.) Thus I suggest we use strcpy in place of copy_page. In this way we make sure the amount we copy is always less than or equal to the amount we received and since do_mount is zeroing the last byte this should be safe for all.

In fixing the /proc/misc problem that was reported last week where the tpm module name was being obfuscated in /proc/misc I introduced a bug in the module unloading code.

The following patch enables attrs by default if the reiserfs_attrs_cleared bit is set in the superblock. This allows chattr-type attrs to be used without any further action by the user. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

ReiserFS currently will allow the user to set/get attrs for files regardless if they are enabled. The patch checks to see if they are enabled, and returns -NOTTY if they are not. ext[23] doesn't need this check because attrs are always enabled.

Remove legacy ISA serial ports for Accent, Boca, Fourport, Hub6 and MCA from the architecture specific serial.h include. The only ports which remain in asm-*/serial.h are the platform specific entries. These should really be converted by platform maintainers to use a platform device, such as can be found in arch/arm/mach-footbridge/isa.c Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

Patch from Nicolas Pitre Those are big, slow and generally not recommended for kernel code. They are even not present on i386.

I am using the atxp1 module to change vcore on my NForce2 via userspace daemon (see punnoor.de). Currently the atxp1 module will write to the log on every vcore change, thus filling up my log - which I don't want. I am no kernel coder, but I guess, this one-liner will change this behaviour in a wanted way, ie output will be made for debug purposes only.

Patch from Catalin Marinas The compiler allocates r14 for the stk variable in the __asm__ directive. This is a shadowed register and gets changed when the mode is changed, causing random values in the SP register. The patch adds a clobber for the r14 register.

Convert ARMs timer implementations to use readl/writel instead of accessing the registers via a struct. People have recently asked if accessing timers via a structure is the "right way" and its not the Linux way. So fix this code to conform to "The Linux Way"(tm).

Patch from Ben Dooks All current S3C24XX implementations from Simtec share the same requirements for suspend/resume information.
