* WMI: initialize wmi_blocks.list even if ACPI is disabledLinus Torvalds2008-02-111-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Even if we don't want to register the WMI driver, we should initialize the wmi_blocks list to be empty, since we don't want the wmi helper functions to oops just because that basic list has not even been set up. With this, "find_guid()" will happily return "not found" rather than oopsing all over the place, and the callers will then just automatically return false or AE_NOT_FOUND as appropriate.

| | | | | | | | | | The makefile magic for installing the 32-bit vdso images on disk had a little error. A single-line change would fix that bug, but this does a little more to reduce the error-prone duplication of this bit of makefile variable magic.

* mempolicy: silently restrict nodemask to allowed nodesKOSAKI Motohiro2008-02-112-28/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kosaki Motohito noted that "numactl --interleave=all ..." failed in the presence of memoryless nodes. This patch attempts to fix that problem. Some background: numactl --interleave=all calls set_mempolicy(2) with a fully populated [out to MAXNUMNODES] nodemask. set_mempolicy() [in do_set_mempolicy()] calls contextualize_policy() which requires that the nodemask be a subset of the current task's mems_allowed; else EINVAL will be returned. A task's mems_allowed will always be a subset of node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] i.e., nodes with memory. So, a fully populated nodemask will be declared invalid if it includes memoryless nodes. NOTE: the same thing will occur when running in a cpuset with restricted mem_allowed--for the same reason: node mask contains dis-allowed nodes. mbind(2), on the other hand, just masks off any nodes in the nodemask that are not included in the caller's mems_allowed. In each case [mbind() and set_mempolicy()], mpol_check_policy() will complain [again, resulting in EINVAL] if the nodemask contains any memoryless nodes. This is somewhat redundant as mpol_new() will remove memoryless nodes for interleave policy, as will bind_zonelist()--called by mpol_new() for BIND policy. Proposed fix: 1) modify contextualize_policy logic to: a) remember whether the incoming node mask is empty. b) if not, restrict the nodemask to allowed nodes, as is currently done in-line for mbind(). This guarantees that the resulting mask includes only nodes with memory. NOTE: this is a [benign, IMO] change in behavior for set_mempolicy(). Dis-allowed nodes will be silently ignored, rather than returning an error. c) fold this code into mpol_check_policy(), replace 2 calls to contextualize_policy() to call mpol_check_policy() directly and remove contextualize_policy(). 2) In existing mpol_check_policy() logic, after "contextualization": a) MPOL_DEFAULT: require that in coming mask "was_empty" b) MPOL_{BIND|INTERLEAVE}: require that contextualized nodemask contains at least one node. c) add a case for MPOL_PREFERRED: if in coming was not empty and resulting mask IS empty, user specified invalid nodes. Return EINVAL. c) remove the now redundant check for memoryless nodes 3) remove the now redundant masking of policy nodes for interleave policy from mpol_new(). 4) Now that mpol_check_policy() contextualizes the nodemask, remove the in-line nodes_and() from sys_mbind(). I believe that this restores mbind() to the behavior before the memoryless-nodes patch series. E.g., we'll no longer treat an invalid nodemask with MPOL_PREFERRED as local allocation. [ Patch history: v1 -> v2: - Communicate whether or not incoming node mask was empty to mpol_check_policy() for better error checking. - As suggested by David Rientjes, remove the now unused cpuset_nodes_subset_current_mems_allowed() from cpuset.h v2 -> v3: - As suggested by Kosaki Motohito, fold the "contextualization" of policy nodemask into mpol_check_policy(). Looks a little cleaner. ] Signed-off-by: Lee Schermerhorn <lee.schermerhorn@hp.com> Signed-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Tested-by: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit bdc807871d58285737d50dc6163d0feb72cb0dc2 broke the build for this config because the sim_defconfig selects CONFIG_HZ=250 but include/asm-ia64/param.h has an ifdef for the simulator to force HZ to 32. So we ended up with a kernel/timeconst.h set for HZ=250 ... which then failed the check for the right HZ value and died with: Drop the #ifdef magic from param.h and make force CONFIG_HZ=32 directly for the simulator.

* | Be more robust about bad arguments in get_user_pages()Jonathan Corbet2008-02-111-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So I spent a while pounding my head against my monitor trying to figure out the vmsplice() vulnerability - how could a failure to check for *read* access turn into a root exploit? It turns out that it's a buffer overflow problem which is made easy by the way get_user_pages() is coded. In particular, "len" is a signed int, and it is only checked at the *end* of a do {} while() loop. So, if it is passed in as zero, the loop will execute once and decrement len to -1. At that point, the loop will proceed until the next invalid address is found; in the process, it will likely overflow the pages array passed in to get_user_pages(). I think that, if get_user_pages() has been asked to grab zero pages, that's what it should do. Thus this patch; it is, among other things, enough to block the (already fixed) root exploit and any others which might be lurking in similar code. I also think that the number of pages should be unsigned, but changing the prototype of this function probably requires some more careful review.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the current scheme in nlmsvc_grant_blocked, we can end up with more than one GRANT_MSG callback for a block in flight. Right now, we requeue the block unconditionally so that a GRANT_MSG callback is done again in 30s. If the client is unresponsive, it can take more than 30s for the call already in flight to time out. There's no benefit to having more than one GRANT_MSG RPC queued up at a time, so put it on the list with a timeout of NLM_NEVER before doing the RPC call. If the RPC call submission fails, we requeue it with a short timeout. If it works, then nlmsvc_grant_callback will end up requeueing it with a shorter timeout after it completes.

| * | NLM: have server-side RPC clients default to soft RPC tasksJeff Layton2008-02-101-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that it no longer does an RPC ping, lockd always ends up queueing an RPC task for the GRANT_MSG callback. But, it also requeues the block for later attempts. Since these are hard RPC tasks, if the client we're calling back goes unresponsive the GRANT_MSG callbacks can stack up in the RPC queue. Fix this by making server-side RPC clients default to soft RPC tasks. lockd requeues the block anyway, so this should be OK. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J.

| * | NLM: set RPC_CLNT_CREATE_NOPING for NLM RPC clientsJeff Layton2008-02-101-0/+1

The scenario is something like this: 1) client1 (or a process on the server) takes a lock on a file 2) client2 tries to take a blocking lock on the same file and awaits the callback 3) client2 goes unresponsive (plug pulled, network partition, etc) 4) client1 releases the lock ...at that point the server's lockd will try to queue up a GRANT_MSG callback for client2, but first it requeues the block with a timeout of 30s. nlm_async_call will attempt to bind the RPC client to client2 and will call rpc_ping. rpc_ping entails a sync RPC call and if client2 is unresponsive it will take around 60s for that to time out. Once it times out, it's already time to retry the block and the whole process repeats. Once in this situation, nlmsvc_retry_blocked will never return until the host starts responding again. lockd won't service new calls. Fix this by skipping the RPC ping on NLM RPC clients. This makes nlm_async_call return quickly when called. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>

Allocating IDE command structure on the stack for flush requests is not a very brilliant idea: - idedisk_prepare_flush() only prepares the request and it doesn't wait for it to be completed - there are can be multiple flush requests queued in the queue Fix the problem (per hints from James Bottomley) by: - dynamically allocating ide_task_t instance using kmalloc(..., GFP_ATOMIC) - adding new taskfile flag (IDE_TFLAG_DYN) - calling kfree() in ide_end_drive_command() if IDE_TFLAG_DYN is set (while at it rename 'args' to 'task' and fix whitespace damage) [ This will be fixed properly before 2.6.25 but this bug is rather critical and the proper solution requires some more work + testing. ] Thanks to Sebastian Siewior and Christoph Hellwig for reporting the problem and testing patches (extra thanks to Sebastian for bisecting it to the guilty commmit).
