Patch from Ben Dooks Change the initialiser for the map_desc for the iPAQ RX3715 to use the new pfn initialiser, and also reduce the amount of ISA space mapped (we only need to stop any ISA IO writes OOPsing the system, so do not need >1Mbyte of space) Signed-off-by: Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

You could open the /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<if>/<whatever> file, then wait for interface to go away, try to grab as much memory as possible in hope to hit the (kfreed) ctl_table. Then fill it with pointers to your function. Then do read from file you've opened and if you are lucky, you'll get it called as ->proc_handler() in kernel mode. So this is at least an Oops and possibly more. It does depend on an interface going away though, so less of a security risk than it would otherwise be.

When non-leader thread does exec, de_thread calls release_task(leader) before calling exit_itimers(). If local timer interrupt happens in between, it can oops in send_group_sigqueue() while taking ->sighand->siglock == NULL. However, we can't change send_group_sigqueue() to check p->signal != NULL, because sys_timer_create() does get_task_struct() only in SIGEV_THREAD_ID case. So it is possible that this task_struct was already freed and we can't trust p->signal. This patch changes de_thread() so that leader released after exit_itimers() call.

Patch from Richard Purdie The Sharp SL-Cxx00 models have a combined power control for the SD and CF slot 0. This patch adds hooks to the scoop driver to allow machines to provide a custom control function for this and such a function is added for spitz/akita/borzoi. It also moves the gpio init code into the machine files as this is machine dependent and differs between some models. A couple of warnings when compiling for collie are also fixed.

When ip_queue_xmit calls ip_select_ident_more for IP identity selection it gives it the wrong packet count for TSO packets. The ip_select_* functions expect one less than the number of packets, so we need to subtract one for TSO packets. This bug was diagnosed and fixed by Tom Young.

Matt Domsch authored
From: Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@dell.com> The patch below implements the Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption method as a PPP compressor/decompressor. This is necessary for Linux clients and servers to interoperate with Microsoft Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) servers (either Microsoft PPTP servers or the poptop project) which use MPPE to encrypt data when creating a VPN. This patch differs from the kernel_ppp_mppe DKMS pacakge at pptpclient.sourceforge.net by utilizing the kernel crypto routines rather than providing its own SHA1 and arcfour implementations. Minor changes to ppp_generic.c try to prevent a link from disabling compression (in our case, the encryption) after it has started using compression (encryption). Feedback to <pptpclient-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> please. Signed-off-by: Matt Domsch <Matt_Domsch@dell.com> Cc: James Cameron <james.cameron@hp.com> Cc: "David S.

Julian Anastasov authored
There was a fix in 2.6.13 that changed the behaviour of ip_vs_conn_expire_now function not to put reference to connection, its callers should hold write lock or connection refcnt. But we forgot to convert one caller, when the real server for connection is unavailable caller should put the connection reference. It happens only when sysctl var expire_nodest_conn is set to 1 and such connections never expire. Thanks to Roberto Nibali who found the problem and tested a 2.4.32-rc2 patch, which is equal to this 2.6 version. Patch for 2.4 is already sent to Marcelo.
