2011-03-10Check for immutable/append flag in fallocate pathMarco Stornelli1-0/+8
In the fallocate path the kernel doesn't check for the immutable/append flag. It's possible to have a race condition in this scenario: an application open a file in read/write and it does something, meanwhile root set the immutable flag on the file, the application at that point can call fallocate with success. In addition, we don't allow to do any unreserve operation on an append only file but only the reserve one.

30201e7f3 ("mmc: skip detection of nonremovable cards on rescan") allowed skipping detection of nonremovable cards on mmc_rescan(). The intention was to only skip detection of hardwired cards that cannot be removed, so make sure this is indeed the case by directly checking for (lack of) MMC_CAP_NONREMOVABLE, instead of using mmc_card_is_removable(), which is overloaded with CONFIG_MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME semantics. The user-visible symptom of the bug this patch fixes is that no "mmc: card XXXX removed" message appears in dmesg when a card is removed and CONFIG_MMC_UNSAFE_RESUME=y.

2011-03-08unfuck proc_sysctl ->d_compare()Al Viro4-13/+31
a) struct inode is not going to be freed under ->d_compare(); however, the thing PROC_I(inode)->sysctl points to just might. Fortunately, it's enough to make freeing that sucker delayed, provided that we don't step on its ->unregistering, clear the pointer to it in PROC_I(inode) before dropping the reference and check if it's NULL in ->d_compare(). b) I'm not sure that we *can* walk into NULL inode here (we recheck dentry->seq between verifying that it's still hashed / fetching dentry->d_inode and passing it to ->d_compare() and there's no negative hashed dentries in /proc/sys/*), but if we can walk into that, we really should not have ->d_compare() return 0 on it!

This is a limited resource, only 64 entries, of which 20 are reserved for Display and PCH writes, and so we must take care not to queue up too many writes. To avoid this, there is counter which we can poll to ensure there are sufficient free entries in the fifo.

2011-03-04mm: use correct numa policy node for transparent hugepagesAndi Kleen2-8/+19
Pass down the correct node for a transparent hugepage allocation. Most callers continue to use the current node, however the hugepaged daemon now uses the previous node of the first to be collapsed page instead. This ensures that khugepaged does not mess up local memory for an existing process which uses local policy. The choice of node is somewhat primitive currently: it just uses the node of the first page in the pmd range. An alternative would be to look at multiple pages and use the most popular node. I used the simplest variant for now which should work well enough for the case of all pages being on the same node.

2011-03-04pps: make pps_gen_parport depend on BROKENThomas Gleixner1-1/+1
This driver causes hard lockups, when the active clock soure is jiffies. The reason is that it loops with interrupts disabled waiting for a timestamp to be reached by polling getnstimeofday(). Though with a jiffies clocksource, when that code runs on the same CPU which is responsible for updating jiffies, then we loop in circles for ever simply because the timer interrupt cannot update jiffies. So both UP and SMP can be affected. There is no easy fix for that problem so make it depend on BROKEN for now.

We tracked this back to an nfsv4 setacl operation, in which the nfs code attempted to fill convert the passed in buffer to an array of pages in __nfs4_proc_set_acl, which gets used by the skb->frags list in xs_sendpages. __nfs4_proc_set_acl just converts each page in the buffer to a page struct via virt_to_page, but the vfs allocates the buffer via kmalloc, meaning the PG_slab bit is set. We can't create a buffer with kmalloc and free it later in the tcp ack path with put_page, so we need to either: 1) ensure that when we create the list of pages, no page struct has PG_Slab set or 2) not use a page list to send this data Given that these buffers can be multiple pages and arbitrarily sized, I think (1) is the right way to go. I've written the below patch to allocate a page from the buddy allocator directly and copy the data over to it. This ensures that we have a put_page free-able page for every entry that winds up on an skb frag list, so it can be safely freed when the frame is acked. We do a put page on each entry after the rpc_call_sync call so as to drop our own reference count to the page, leaving only the ref count taken by tcp_sendpages. This way the data will be properly freed when the ack comes in Successfully tested by myself to solve the above oops. Note, as this is the result of a setacl operation that exceeded a page of data, I think this amounts to a local DOS triggerable by an uprivlidged user, so I'm CCing security on this as well.

2011-03-04libceph: fix msgr standby handlingSage Weil1-8/+22
The standby logic used to be pretty dependent on the work requeueing behavior that changed when we switched to WQ_NON_REENTRANT. It was also very fragile. Restructure things so that: - We clear WRITE_PENDING when we set STANDBY. This ensures we will requeue work when we wake up later. - con_work backs off if STANDBY is set. There is nothing to do if we are in standby. - clear_standby() helper is called by both con_send() and con_keepalive(), the two actions that can wake us up again. Move the connect_seq++ logic here.

2011-03-04libceph: fix msgr keepalive flagSage Weil2-6/+4
There was some broken keepalive code using a dead variable. Shift to using the proper bit flag. Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>
2011-03-04libceph: fix msgr backoffSage Weil2-2/+29
With commit f363e45f we replaced a bunch of hacky workqueue mutual exclusion logic with the WQ_NON_REENTRANT flag. One pieces of fallout is that the exponential backoff breaks in certain cases: * con_work attempts to connect. * we get an immediate failure, and the socket state change handler queues immediate work. * con_work calls con_fault, we decide to back off, but can't queue delayed work. In this case, we add a BACKOFF bit to make con_work reschedule delayed work next time it runs (which should be immediately). Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>

2011-03-04minimal fix for do_filp_open() raceAl Viro1-3/+10
failure exits on the no-O_CREAT side of do_filp_open() merge with those of O_CREAT one; unfortunately, if do_path_lookup() returns -ESTALE, we'll get out_filp:, notice that we are about to return -ESTALE without having trying to create the sucker with LOOKUP_REVAL and jump right into the O_CREAT side of code. And proceed to try and create a file. Usually that'll fail with -ESTALE again, but we can race and get that attempt of pathname resolution to succeed. open() without O_CREAT really shouldn't end up creating files, races or not. The real fix is to rearchitect the whole do_filp_open(), but for now splitting the failure exits will do. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

They are only used inside kernel/ptrace.c, and have been for a long time. We don't want to go back to the bad-old-days when architectures did things on their own, so make them static and private. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
