* [PATCH] return ENOENT from ext3_link when racing with unlinkEric Sandeen2007-02-112-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Return -ENOENT from ext[34]_link if we've raced with unlink and i_nlink is 0. Doing otherwise has the potential to corrupt the orphan inode list, because we'd wind up with an inode with a non-zero link count on the list, and it will never get properly cleaned up & removed from the orphan list before it is freed.

* [PATCH] fix umask when noACL kernel meets extN tuned for ACLsHugh Dickins2007-02-113-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix insecure default behaviour reported by Tigran Aivazian: if an ext2 or ext3 or ext4 filesystem is tuned to mount with "acl", but mounted by a kernel built without ACL support, then umask was ignored when creating inodes - though root or user has umask 022, touch creates files as 0666, and mkdir creates directories as 0777. This appears to have worked right until 2.6.11, when a fix to the default mode on symlinks (always 0777) assumed VFS applies umask: which it does, unless the mount is marked for ACLs; but ext[234] set MS_POSIXACL in s_flags according to s_mount_opt set according to def_mount_opts. We could revert to the 2.6.10 ext[234]_init_acl (adding an S_ISLNK test); but other filesystems only set MS_POSIXACL when ACLs are configured. We could fix this at another level; but it seems most robust to avoid setting the s_mount_opt flag in the first place (at the expense of more ifdefs). Likewise don't set the XATTR_USER flag when built without XATTR support.

* [PATCH] sn2: use static ->proc_fopsAlexey Dobriyan2007-02-111-43/+62
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | fix-rmmod-read-write-races-in-proc-entries.patch doesn't want dynamically allocated ->proc_fops, because it will set it to NULL at module unload time. Regardless of module status, switch to statically allocated ->proc_fops which leads to simpler code without wrappers. AFAICS, also fix the following bug: "sn_force_interrupt" proc entry set ->write for itself, but was created with 0444 permissions. Change to 0644.

* [PATCH] raw: don't allow the creation of a raw device with minor number 0Jeff Moyer2007-02-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Minor number 0 (under the raw major) is reserved for the rawctl device file, which is used to query, set, and unset raw device bindings. However, the ioctl interface does not protect the user from specifying a raw device with minor number 0: $ sudo ./raw /dev/raw/raw0 /dev/VolGroup00/swap /dev/raw/raw0: bound to major 253, minor 2 $ ls -l /dev/rawctl ls: /dev/rawctl: No such file or directory $ ls -l /dev/raw/raw0 crw------- 1 root root 162, 0 Jan 12 10:51 /dev/raw/raw0 $ sudo ./raw -qa Cannot open master raw device '/dev/rawctl' (No such file or directory) As you can see, this prevents any further raw operations from succeeding. The fix (from Steve Fernandez) is quite simple--do not allow the allocation of minor number 0.

* [PATCH] RTC framework driver for CMOS RTCsDavid Brownell2007-02-114-1/+760
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is an "RTC framework" driver for the "CMOS" RTCs which are standard on PCs and some other platforms. That's MC146818 compatible silicon. Advantages of this vs. drivers/char/rtc.c (use one _or_ the other, only one will be able to claim the RTC irq) include: - This leverages both the new RTC framework and the driver model; both PNPACPI and platform device modes are supported. (A separate patch creates a platform device on PCs where PNPACPI isn't configured.) - It supports common extensions like longer alarms. (A separate patch exports that information from ACPI through platform_data.) - Likewise, system wakeup events use "real driver model support", with policy control via sysfs "wakeup" attributes and and using normal rtc ioctls to manage wakeup. (Patch in the works. The ACPI hooks are known; /proc/acpi/alarm can vanish. Making it work with EFI will be a minor challenge to someone with e.g. a MiniMac.) It's not yet been tested on non-x86 systems, without ACPI, or with HPET. And the RTC framework will surely have teething pains on "mainstream" PC-based systems (though must embedded Linux systems use it heavily), not limited to sorting out the "/dev/rtc0" issue (udev easily tweaked). Also, the ALSA rtctimer code doesn't use the new RTC API. Otherwise, this should be a no-known-regressions replacement for the old drivers/char/rtc.c driver, and should help the non-embedded distros (and the new timekeeping code) start to switch to the framework. Note also that any systems using "rtc-m48t86" are candidates to switch over to this more functional driver; the platform data is different, and the way bytes are read is different, but otherwise those chips should be compatible.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed that almost all architectures implemented exactly the same sys32_sysinfo... except parisc, where a bug was to be found in handling of the uptime. So let's remove a whole whack of code for fun and profit. Cribbed compat_sys_sysinfo from x86_64's implementation, since I figured it would be the best tested. This patch incorporates Arnd's suggestion of not using set_fs/get_fs, but instead extracting out the common code from sys_sysinfo.

* [PATCH] tty: improve encode_baud_rate logicAlan Cox2007-02-111-15/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mostly so people can see the work in progress. This enhances the encode function which isn't currently used in the base tree but is when using some of the testing tty patches. This resolves a problem with some hardware where applications got confusing information from the tty ioctls. Correct but confusing. In some situations asking for, say, 9600 baud actually gets you 9595 baud or similar near-miss values. With the old code this meant that a request for B9600 got a return of BOTHER, 9595 which programs interpreted as a failure. The new code now works on the following basis - If you ask for specific rate via BOTHER, you get a precise return - If you ask for a standard Bfoo rate and the result is close you get a Bfoo return - If you ask for a standard Bfoo rate and get something way off you get a BOTHER/rate return This seems to fix up the cases I've found where this broke compatibility.

These are: The wholesale move of the command receivers list into a new list was not safe because the list will point to the new tail during a traversal, so the traversal will never end on a reader if this happens during a read. Memory barriers were needed to handle proper ordering of the setting of the IPMI interface as valid. Readers might not see proper ordering of data otherwise.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 32bit and 64bit PARISC Linux kernels suffers from the problem, that the gettimeofday() call sometimes returns non-monotonic times. The easiest way to fix this, is to drop the PARISC-specific implementation and switch over to the generic TIME_INTERPOLATION framework. But in order to make it even compile on 32bit PARISC, the patch below which touches the generic Linux code, is mandatory. More information and the full patch with the parisc-specific changes is included in this thread: http://lists.parisc-linux.org/pipermail/parisc-linux/2006-December/031003.html As far as I could see, this patch does not change anything for the existing architectures which use this framework (IA64 and SPARC64), since "cycles_t" is defined there as unsigned 64bit-integer anyway (which then makes this patch a no-change for them).

* [PATCH] Export invalidate_mapping_pages() to modulesAnton Altaparmakov2007-02-112-7/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | It makes no sense to me to export invalidate_inode_pages() and not invalidate_mapping_pages() and I actually need invalidate_mapping_pages() because of its range specification ability... akpm: also remove the export of invalidate_inode_pages() by making it an inlined wrapper.

* [PATCH] DocBook/HTML: correction of recursive A tags in HTML outputPavel Pisa2007-02-111-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The malformed HTML was generated after switch to XSLTPROC from SGML tools. The reference title <refentrytitle><phrase id="API-struct-x">struct x</phrase></refentrytitle> is converted into two recursive <a> tags <a href="re02.html"><span><a id="API-struct-x"></a>struct x</span></a> There is more possible solutions for this problem. One can be found at http://darkk.livejournal.com/ The proposed solution is based on suggestion provided by Jiri Kosek.
