This updates some error reporting paths in SPI device setup: - Move validation logic for SPI chipselects to spi_new_device(), which is where it should always have been. - In spi_new_device(), emit error messages if the device can't be created. This is LOTS better than a silent failure; though eventually, the calling convention should probably change to use the <linux/err.h> conventions. - Includes one previously-missing check: SPI masters must always have at least one chipselect, even for dedicated busses which always keep it selected! It also adds a FIXME (IDR for dynamic ID allocation) so the issue doesn't live purely in my mailbox.

This gets "0xFF0100 | tid" and fits into 32-bit unsigned but not into 32-bit signed integer properly. Target value is defined as u32 so the claculation does not fit during computation.

This patch fix weird behaviour of UDF mounting procedure. To get UID changed (for now) we have to type mount -t udf -o uid=some_user,uid=ignore /dev/device /mnt/moun_point and specifying two uid at once is strange a bit. So with the patch we are able to mount without additional 'uid=ignore' option. The same for GID option is done. This patch will not break current mount scheme (with two option). Btw this does fix (I hope) the following [BUG 6124] mount of UDF fs ignores UID and GID options http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6124Signed-off-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@gmail.com> Cc: Jan Kara <jack@ucw.cz> Cc: Michael <auslands-kv@gmx.de> Cc: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Coverity spotted what looks like a real possible case of using a variable after it has been freed. The problem is in kernel/relay.c::relay_open_buf() If the code hits "goto free_buf;" it ends up in this code : free_buf: relay_destroy_buf(buf); <--- calls kfree() on 'buf'. free_name: kfree(tmpname); end: return buf; <-- use after free of 'buf'. I read through the callers and they all handle a NULL return from this function as an error (and hitting the 'free_buf' label only happens on failure to chan->cb->create_buf_file(), so that looks like a clear error to me). The patch simply sets 'buf' to NULL after the call to relay_destroy_buf(buf); - as far as I can see that should take care of the problem. The patch also corrects a reference to a documentation file while I was at it. Note from Mathieu: the documentation reference change should have been done in a separate patch, but I guess no one will really care.

WARNING: kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x16910): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: (between 'kthreadd' and 'init_waitqueue_head') comes because kernel/kthread.c:kthreadd() is not __init but calls kthreadd_setup() which is __init. But this is ok, because kthreadd_setup() is only ever called at init time, and then kthreadd() proceeds into its "for (;;)" loop. We could mark kthreadd __init_refok, but kthreadd_setup() with just one callsite and 4 lines in it (it's been that small since 10ab825b) doesn't need to be a separate function at all -- so let's just move those four lines at beginning of kthreadd() itself.

It is possible that another process could acquire a new file lease right after break_lease() is called during a truncate, but before lease-granting is disabled by the subsequent get_write_access(). Merely switching the order of the break_lease() and get_write_access() calls prevents this race. Signed-off-by: David M. Richter <richterd@citi.umich.edu> Signed-off-by: "J.

This is only called at init time and only happens if the BIOS screws something up, so the leak is slight and it is probably not worth sending to 2.6.22.x. The driver would not initialize the interface in the case, and I have no reports of this happening. I have booted and run tests on a system with this patch. Note that the original patch was munged by the mailer, here's a new one. If we ever hit the "default:" case in the switch in try_init_dmi(), then we'll leak the storage allocated with kzalloc() and assigned to 'info'.

The patch in commit ID f7232056 stops (aborts) the MPSC's receive engine just before restarting it. Unfortunately, it doesn't wait for the abort to complete before restarting it which creates a race between the abort and the restart. If the restart occurs first, the in-progress abort stops it again and the rx engine remains stopped. Instead, do the abort when the SDMA engine is being stopped. Make sure to wait for the abort to complete before continuing. Signed-off-by: Carlos Sanchez <carlos.sanchez@gecoinc.com> Signed-off-by: Mark A.

It turned out that mounting a corrupted ISO image to a regular file may succeed, e.g. if an image was prepared as follows: $ dd if=correct.iso of=bad.iso bs=4k count=8 We then can mount it to a regular file: # mount -o loop -t iso9660 bad.iso /tmp/file But mounting it to a directory fails with -ENOTDIR, simply because the root directory inode doesn't have S_IFDIR set and the condition in graft_tree() is met: if (S_ISDIR(nd->dentry->d_inode->i_mode) != S_ISDIR(mnt->mnt_root->d_inode->i_mode)) return -ENOTDIR This is because the root directory inode was read from an incorrect block. It's supposed to be read from sbi->s_firstdatazone, which is an absolute value and gets messed up in the case of an incorrect image. In order to somehow circumvent this we have to check that the root directory inode is actually a directory after all.
