We have a bug in the i386 stub_syscall6 which pushes ebp before the system call and pops it afterwards. Because we use syscall6 to remap the stack, the old contents of the stack (and the former value of ebp) are no longer available. Some versions of gcc make from a real local, accessed through ebp, despite my efforts to make it obvious that references to from are really constants. This patch attempts to make it even more obvious by eliminating from and using a macro to access the stub's data explicitly with constants. My original thinking on this was to replace syscall6 with a remap_stack interface which saved ebp someplace and restored it afterwards. The problem is that there are no registers to put it in, except for esp. That could work, since we can store a constant in esp after the mmap because we just replaced the stack. However, this approach seems a tad cleaner. Signed-off-by: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

The kernel's use of the for_each_*cpu(i) macros has allowed for sparse CPU numbering. When I hacked the kernel to test sparse cpu_present_map[] and cpu_possible_map[] cpumasks, I discovered one remaining spot, in sn_hwperf_ioctl() during sn initialization, that needs to be fixed.

Kill the arq->state poison statement in as_add_request(), it can trigger for perfectly valid code that just reuses a request after io completion instead of freeing it and allocating a new one. We probably should introduce a blk_init_request() to start from scratch, but for now just kill it as we will be removing the as specific poisoning soon.

- IP_NF_CONNTRACK_MARK is bool and depends on only IP_NF_CONNTRACK which is tristate. If a variable depends on IP_NF_CONNTRACK_MARK and doesn't care about IP_NF_CONNTRACK, it can be y. This must be avoided. - IP_NF_CT_ACCT has same problem. - IP_NF_TARGET_CLUSTERIP also depends on IP_NF_MANGLE.

From: Alexandra Kossovsky <Alexandra.Kossovsky@oktetlabs.ru> From http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4746 There is user data corruption when using ioctl(SIOCGIFCONF) in 32-bit application running amd64 kernel. I do not think that this problem is exploitable, but any data corruption may lead to security problems. Following code demonstrates the problem #include <stdint.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/time.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <net/if.h> #include <sys/ioctl.h> char buf[256]; main() { int s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0); struct ifconf req; int i; req.ifc_buf = buf; req.ifc_len = 41; printf("Result %d\n", ioctl(s, SIOCGIFCONF, &req)); printf("Len %d\n", req.ifc_len); for (i = 41; i < 256; i++) if (buf[i] != 0) printf("Byte %d is corrupted\n", i); } Steps to reproduce: Compile the code above into 32-bit elf and run it. You'll get Result 0 Len 32 Byte 48 is corrupted Byte 52 is corrupted Byte 53 is corrupted Byte 54 is corrupted Byte 55 is corrupted Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

If two packets were queued to be sent at the same time in the future, their order would be reversed. This would occur because the queue is traversed back to front, and a position is found by checking whether the new packet needs to be sent before the packet being examined. If the new packet is to be sent at the same time of a previous packet, it would end up before the old packet in the queue. This patch places packets in the correct order when they are queued to be sent at a same time in the future. Signed-off-by: Andrea Bittau <a.bittau@cs.ucl.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

Ever since we remove msr.c from x86_64 branch and started grabbing it from i386, msr device (read functionality) has been broken for us. This is due to the differences between asm-i386/msr.h and asm-x86_64/msr.h interfaces. Here is a patch to our side to fix this. Thankfully, as of current (2.6.15-rc1-git6) tree, arch/i386/kernel/msr.c is the only file that uses rdmsr_safe macro.
