isofs: fix access to unallocated memory when reading corrupted filesystem · 2deb1acc

Jan Kara authored Apr 30, 2008

When a directory on isofs is corrupted, we did not check whether length of the
name in a directory entry and the length of the directory entry itself are
consistent.  This could lead to possible access beyond the end of buffer when
the length of the name was too big.  Add this sanity check to directory
reading code.

md: support blocking writes to an array on device failure · 6bfe0b49

Dan Williams authored Apr 30, 2008

Allows a userspace metadata handler to take action upon detecting a device
failure.

Based on an original patch by Neil Brown.

Changes:
-added blocked_wait waitqueue to rdev
-don't qualify Blocked with Faulty always let userspace block writes
-added md_wait_for_blocked_rdev to wait for the block device to be clear, if
 userspace misses the notification another one is sent every 5 seconds
-set MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED after clearing "blocked"
-kill DoBlock flag, just test mddev->external

md: prevent duplicates in bind_rdev_to_array · 11e2ede0

Dan Williams authored Apr 30, 2008

Found when trying to reassemble an active externally managed array.  Without
this check we hit the more noisy "sysfs duplicate" warning in the later call
to kobject_add.

md: fix up switching md arrays between read-only and read-write · 648b629e

NeilBrown authored Apr 30, 2008

When setting an array to 'readonly' or to 'active' via sysfs, we must make the
appropriate set_disk_ro call too.

Also when switching to "read_auto" (which is like readonly, but blocks on the
first write so that metadata can be marked 'dirty') we need to be more careful
about what state we are changing from.

md: fix 'safemode' handling for external metadata. · 31a59e34

NeilBrown authored Apr 30, 2008

'safemode' relates to marking an array as 'clean' if there has been no write
traffic for a while (a couple of seconds), to reduce the chance of the array
being found dirty on reboot.

->safemode is set to '1' when there have been no write for a while, and it
gets set to '0' when the superblock is updates with the 'clean' flag set.

This requires a few fixes for 'external' metadata:
 - When an array is set to 'clean' via sysfs, 'safemode' must be cleared.
 - when we write to an array that has 'safemode' set (there must have been
        some delay in updating the metadata), we need to clear safemode.
 - Don't try to update external metadata in md_check_recovery for safemode
        transitions - it won't work.

Also, don't try to support "immediate safe mode" (safemode==2) for external
metadata, it cannot really work (the safemode timeout can be set very low if
this is really needed).

md: reinitialise more mddev fields in do_md_stop. · d897dbf9

NeilBrown authored Apr 30, 2008

I keep finding problems where an mddev gets reused and some fields has a value
from a previous usage that confuses the new usage. So clear all fields that
could possible need clearing when calling do_md_stop.

Also initialise the 'level' of a new array to LEVEL_NONE (which isn't 0).

pxafb: move parallel LCD timing setup into dedicate function · 90eabbf0

Eric Miao authored Apr 30, 2008

the new_regs stuff has been removed, and all the setup (modification to those
fbi->reg_*) is protected with IRQ disabled

   * disable IRQ is too heavy here, provided that no IRQ context will
     touch the fbi->reg_* and the only possible contending place is
     in the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE (task context), a mutex will be better,
     leave this for future improvement
