Impact: fix theoretical option string parsing overflow Since bridge is unsigned, it would seem better to use simple_strtoul that simple_strtol. A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/) // <smpl> @r2@ long e; position p; @@ e = simple_strtol@p(...) @@ position p != r2.p; type T; T e; @@ e = - simple_strtol@p + simple_strtoul (...) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Cc: muli@il.ibm.com Cc: jdmason@kudzu.us Cc: discuss@x86-64.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Impact: fix Xen guest boot failure commit eefb47f6 ("xen: use spin_lock_nest_lock when pinning a pagetable") changed xen_pgd_walk to walk over mm->pgd rather than taking pgd as an argument. This breaks xen_mm_(un)pin_all() because it makes init_mm.pgd readonly instead of the pgd we are interested in and therefore the pin subsequently fails.

Impact: fix MSIx not enough irq numbers available regression The manual revert of the sparse_irq patches missed to bring the number of possible irqs back to the .27 status. This resulted in a regression when two multichannel network cards were placed in a system with only one IO_APIC - causing the networking driver to not have the right IRQ and the device not coming up. Remove the dynamic allocation logic leftovers and simply return NR_IRQS in probe_nr_irqs() for now.

Itanium processors can handle some misaligned data accesses. They also provide a mode where all such accesses are forced to trap. The kernel was schizophrenic about use of this mode: * Base kernel code ran in permissive mode where the only traps generated were from those cases that the h/w could not handle. * Interrupt, syscall and trap code ran in strict mode where all unaligned accesses caused traps to the 0x5a00 unaligned reference vector. Use strict alignment checking throughout the kernel, but make sure that we continue to let user mode use more relaxed mode as the default. Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>

When we migrate an interrupt from one CPU to another, we set the move_in_progress flag and clean up the vectors later once they're not being used. If you're unlucky and call destroy_irq() before the vectors become un-used, the move_in_progress flag is never cleared, which causes the interrupt to become unusable. This was discovered by Jesse Brandeburg for whom it manifested as an MSI-X device refusing to use MSI-X mode when the driver was unloaded and reloaded repeatedly.

Fix a regression reported by Max Kellermann whereby kernel profiling showed that his clients were spending 45% of their time in rpcauth_lookup_credcache. It turns out that although his processes had identical uid/gid/groups, generic_match() was failing to detect this, because the task->group_info pointers were not shared. This again lead to the creation of a huge number of identical credentials at the RPC layer. The regression is fixed by comparing the contents of task->group_info if the actual pointers are not identical.

But since translate_usr_offset() returns -1 for invalid offsets, addr can now get the value 0xffffffff which then fails the next return-value sanity check and thus the kernel tries to access invalid memory: if (addr < 0) break; Fix this bug by modifying translate_usr_offset() to take and return values of type compat_ulong_t, and by returning the value "sizeof(struct pt_regs)" as an error indicator. Additionally change the sanity check to check for return values for >= sizeof(struct pt_regs). This patch survived my compile and run-tests.

If a connection with open file handles has gone down and come back up and reconnected without reopening the file handle yet, do not attempt to send an SMB close request for this handle in cifs_close. We were checking for the connection being invalid in cifs_close but since the connection may have been reconnected we also need to check whether the file handle was marked invalid (otherwise we could close the wrong file handle by accident).

Impact: fix incorrect __init annotation This patch removes the following section mismatch warning. A patch set was send previously (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/10/407). But introduce some other problem, reported by Rufus (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/11/11/46). Then Ingo Molnar suggest that, it's best to remove __init from xsave_cntxt_init(void). Which is the second patch in this series. Now, this one removes the following warning.

If the device is suspended with the cable disconnected, then resumed with the cable connected, dev->open is called before resume. During resume, we request an IRQ, but the IRQ was already assigned during dev->open, resulting in the warning shown below. Don't request an IRQ if the device is running.

In ip6mr.c, /proc entries /proc/net/ip6_mr_cache and /proc/net/ip6_mr_vif are opened with seq_open_private(), thus seq_release_private() should be used to release them. Should fix a small memory leak. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Thery <benjamin.thery@bull.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
