Trigger user ABORT if application closes a socket which has data queued on the socket receive queue or chunks waiting on the reassembly or ordering queue as this would imply data being lost which defeats the point of a graceful shutdown. This behavior is already practiced in TCP. We do not check the input queue because that would mean to parse all chunks on it to look for unacknowledged data which seems too much of an effort. Control chunks or duplicated chunks may also be in the input queue and should not be stopping a graceful shutdown.

Upon "ip xfrm state update ..", xfrm_add_sa() takes an extra reference on the user-supplied SA and forgets to drop the reference when xfrm_state_update() returns 0. This leads to a memory leak as the parameter SA is never freed. This change attempts to fix the leak by calling __xfrm_state_put() when xfrm_state_update() updates a valid SA (err = 0). The parameter SA is added to the gc list when the final reference is dropped by xfrm_add_sa() upon completion.

When initiating a graceful shutdown while having data chunks on the retransmission queue with a peer which is in zero window mode the shutdown is never completed because the retransmission error count is reset periodically by the following two rules: - Do not timeout association while doing zero window probe. - Reset overall error count when a heartbeat request has been acknowledged. The graceful shutdown will wait for all outstanding TSN to be acknowledged before sending the SHUTDOWN request. This never happens due to the peer's zero window not acknowledging the continuously retransmitted data chunks. Although the error counter is incremented for each failed retransmission, the receiving of the SACK announcing the zero window clears the error count again immediately. Also heartbeat requests continue to be sent periodically. The peer acknowledges these requests causing the error counter to be reset as well. This patch changes behaviour to only reset the overall error counter for the above rules while not in shutdown. After reaching the maximum number of retransmission attempts, the T5 shutdown guard timer is scheduled to give the receiver some additional time to recover. The timer is stopped as soon as the receiver acknowledges any data. The issue can be easily reproduced by establishing a sctp association over the loopback device, constantly queueing data at the sender while not reading any at the receiver. Wait for the window to reach zero, then initiate a shutdown by killing both processes simultaneously. The association will never be freed and the chunks on the retransmission queue will be retransmitted indefinitely.

Add an FS-Cache helper to bulk uncache pages on an inode. This will only work for the circumstance where the pages in the cache correspond 1:1 with the pages attached to an inode's page cache. This is required for CIFS and NFS: When disabling inode cookie, we were returning the cookie and setting cifsi->fscache to NULL but failed to invalidate any previously mapped pages. This resulted in "Bad page state" errors and manifested in other kind of errors when running fsstress. Fix it by uncaching mapped pages when we disable the inode cookie. This patch should fix the following oops and "Bad page state" errors seen during fsstress testing. ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at fs/cachefiles/namei.c:201! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Pid: 5, comm: kworker/u:0 Not tainted 2.6.38.7-30.fc15.x86_64 #1 Bochs Bochs RIP: 0010: cachefiles_walk_to_object+0x436/0x745 [cachefiles] RSP: 0018:ffff88002ce6dd00 EFLAGS: 00010282 RAX: ffff88002ef165f0 RBX: ffff88001811f500 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000100 RDI: 0000000000000282 RBP: ffff88002ce6dda0 R08: 0000000000000100 R09: ffffffff81b3a300 R10: 0000ffff00066c0a R11: 0000000000000003 R12: ffff88002ae54840 R13: ffff88002ae54840 R14: ffff880029c29c00 R15: ffff88001811f4b0 FS: 00007f394dd32720(0000) GS:ffff88002ef00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 00007fffcb62ddf8 CR3: 000000001825f000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process kworker/u:0 (pid: 5, threadinfo ffff88002ce6c000, task ffff88002ce55cc0) Stack: 0000000000000246 ffff88002ce55cc0 ffff88002ce6dd58 ffff88001815dc00 ffff8800185246c0 ffff88001811f618 ffff880029c29d18 ffff88001811f380 ffff88002ce6dd50 ffffffff814757e4 ffff88002ce6dda0 ffffffff8106ac56 Call Trace: cachefiles_lookup_object+0x78/0xd4 [cachefiles] fscache_lookup_object+0x131/0x16d [fscache] fscache_object_work_func+0x1bc/0x669 [fscache] process_one_work+0x186/0x298 worker_thread+0xda/0x15d kthread+0x84/0x8c kernel_thread_helper+0x4/0x10 RIP cachefiles_walk_to_object+0x436/0x745 [cachefiles] ---[ end trace 1d481c9af1804caa ]--- I tested the uncaching by the following means: (1) Create a big file on my NFS server (104857600 bytes).

Unlike CCMP, the presence or absence of the QoS field doesn't change the encryption, only the TID is used. When no QoS field is present, zero is used as the TID value. This means that it is possible for an attacker to take a QoS packet with TID 0 and replay it as a non-QoS packet. Unfortunately, mac80211 uses different IVs for checking the validity of the packet's TKIP IV when it checks TID 0 and when it checks non-QoS packets. This means it is vulnerable to this replay attack. To fix this, use the same replay counter for TID 0 and non-QoS packets by overriding the rx->queue value to 0 if it is 16 (non-QoS). This is a minimal fix for now.

Previously we would check for acpi_sci_override_gsi == gsi every time a PCI device was enabled. That works during early bootup, but later on it could lead to triggering unnecessarily the acpi_gsi_to_irq(..) lookup. The reason is that acpi_sci_override_gsi was declared in __initdata and after early bootup could contain bogus values. This patch moves the check for acpi_sci_override_gsi to the site where the ACPI SCI is preset.

Testing suggests that at least some Lenovos and some Intels will fail to reboot via EFI, attempting to jump to an unmapped physical address. In the long run we could handle this by providing a page table with a 1:1 mapping of physical addresses, but for now it's probably just easier to assume that ACPI or legacy methods will be present and reboot via those.

Some BIOSes will reset the Intel MISC_ENABLE MSR (specifically the XD_DISABLE bit) when resuming from S3, which can interact poorly with ebba638a. In 32bit PAE mode, this can lead to a fault when EFER is restored by the kernel wakeup routines, due to it setting the NX bit for a CPU that (thanks to the BIOS reset) now incorrectly thinks it lacks the NX feature. (64bit is not affected because it uses a common CPU bring-up that specifically handles the XD_DISABLE bit.) The need for MISC_ENABLE being restored so early is specific to the S3 resume path. Normally, MISC_ENABLE is saved in save_processor_state(), but this happens after the resume header is created, so just reproduce the logic here. (acpi_suspend_lowlevel() creates the header, calls do_suspend_lowlevel, which calls save_processor_state(), so the saved processor context isn't available during resume header creation.)

There is a bug in free_unnecessary_pages() that causes it to attempt to free too many pages in some cases, which triggers the BUG_ON() in memory_bm_clear_bit() for copy_bm. Namely, if count_data_pages() is initially greater than alloc_normal, we get to_free_normal equal to 0 and "save" greater from 0. In that case, if the sum of "save" and count_highmem_pages() is greater than alloc_highmem, we subtract a positive number from to_free_normal. Hence, since to_free_normal was 0 before the subtraction and is an unsigned int, the result is converted to a huge positive number that is used as the number of pages to free. Fix this bug by checking if to_free_normal is actually greater than or equal to the number we're going to subtract from it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

locks_alloc_lock() assumed that the allocated struct file_lock is already initialized to zero members. This is only true for the first allocation of the structure, after reuse some of the members will have random values. This will for example result in passing random fl_start values to userspace in fuse for FL_FLOCK locks, which is an information leak at best. Fix by reinitializing those members which may be non-zero after freeing.

Since git commit 660e34ce x86: reorder reboot method preferences, my Acer Aspire One hangs on reboot. It appears that its ACPI method for rebooting is broken. The attached patch adds a quirk so that the machine will reboot via the BIOS.
