While initializing the state of the prng only the first 8 bytes of random data where used, the second 8 bytes were read from the memory after the stack. If only 64 bytes of the kernel stack are used and CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled a kernel panic may occur because of the invalid page access. Use the correct multiplicator to stay within the random data buffer. Signed-off-by: Jan Glauber <jang@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>

The dasd_open function uses the private_data pointer of the gendisk to find the dasd_block structure that matches the gendisk. When a DASD device is set offline, we set the private_data pointer of the gendisk to NULL and later remove the dasd_block structure, but there is still a small race window, in which dasd_open could first read a pointer from the private_data field and then try to use it, after the structure has already been freed. To close this race window, we will store a pointer to the dasd_devmap structure of the base device in the private_data field. The devmap entries are not deleted, and we already have proper locking and reference counting in place, so that we can safely get from a devmap pointer to the dasd_device and dasd_block structures of the device.

nouveau_bo_wr32 expects offset to be in words, but we pass value in bytes, so after commit 73412c38 ("drm/nouveau: allocate kernel's notifier object at end of block") we started to overwrite some memory after notifier buffer object (previously m2mf_ntfy was always 0, so it didn't matter it was a value in bytes).

We need there dma_mmap_coherent or similar (the trickery what snd_pcm_default_mmap does but in some saner way). But this cannot be done at this phase."

With AMD cpu family 15h a unit mask was introduced for the Data Cache Miss event (0x041/L1-dcache-load-misses). We need to enable bit 0 (first data cache miss or streaming store to a 64 B cache line) of this mask to proper count data cache misses. Now we set this bit for all families and models. In case a PMU does not implement a unit mask for event 0x041 the bit is ignored.

Linus Torvalds authored
next_pidmap() just quietly accepted whatever 'last' pid that was passed in, which is not all that safe when one of the users is /proc. Admittedly the proc code should do some sanity checking on the range (and that will be the next commit), but that doesn't mean that the helper functions should just do that pidmap pointer arithmetic without checking the range of its arguments. So clamp 'last' to PID_MAX_LIMIT. The fact that we then do "last+1" doesn't really matter, the for-loop does check against the end of the pidmap array properly (it's only the actual pointer arithmetic overflow case we need to worry about, and going one bit beyond isn't going to overflow).

Mouse gets "stuck" after restore of PV guest but buttons are in working condition. If driver has been configured for ABS coordinates at start it will get XENKBD_TYPE_POS events and then suddenly after restore it'll start getting XENKBD_TYPE_MOTION events, that will be dropped later and they won't get into user-space. Regression was introduced by hunk 5 and 6 of 5ea5254a ("Input: xen-kbdfront - advertise either absolute or relative coordinates"). Driver on restore should ask xen for request-abs-pointer again if it is available. So restore parts that did it before 5ea5254a.

This patch fixes a deadlock in GFS2 where two processes are trying to reclaim an unlinked dinode: One holds the inode glock and calls gfs2_lookup_by_inum trying to look up the inode, which it can't, due to I_FREEING. The other has set I_FREEING from vfs and is at the beginning of gfs2_delete_inode waiting for the glock, which is held by the first. The solution is to add a new non_block parameter to the gfs2_iget function that causes it to return -ENOENT if the inode is being freed.

GFS2 was relying on the writepage code to write out the zeroed data for fallocate. However, with FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE set, this may be past i_size. If it is, it will be ignored. To work around this, gfs2 now calls write_dirty_buffer directly on the buffer_heads when FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE is set, and it's writing past i_size.

I did an audit of gfs2's transaction glock for bugzilla bug 658619 and ran across this: In function gfs2_write_end, in the unlikely event that gfs2_meta_inode_buffer returns an error, the code may forget to unlock the transaction lock because the "failed" label appears after the call to function gfs2_trans_end.
