      SCSI: scsi_transport_spi: fix oops in revalidate · e957c8b1
      James Bottomley authored 
      commit e8bac9e0 upstream

The class_device->device conversion is causing an oops in revalidate
because it's assuming that the device_for_each_child iterator will only
return struct scsi_device children.  The conversion made all former
class_devices children of the device as well, so this assumption is
broken.  Fix it.

      SCSI: ses: fix VPD inquiry overrun · e563ea63
      James Bottomley authored 
      commit 671a99c8 upstream

There are a few kerneloops.org reports like this one:

http://www.kerneloops.org/search.php?search=ses_match_to_enclosure

That seem to imply we're running off the end of the VPD inquiry data
(although at 512 bytes, it should be long enough for just about
anything).  we should be using correctly sized buffers anyway, so put
those in and hope this oops goes away.

      mlock() fix return values · 84d21376
      KOSAKI Motohiro authored 
      commit a477097d upstream

Halesh says:

Please find the below testcase provide to test mlock.

Test Case :
===========================

#include <sys/resource.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)
{
  int fd,ret, i = 0;
  char *addr, *addr1 = NULL;
  unsigned int page_size;
  struct rlimit rlim;

  if (0 != geteuid())
  {
   printf("Execute this pgm as root\n");
   exit(1);
  }

  /* create a file */
  if ((fd = open("mmap_test.c",O_RDWR|O_CREAT,0755)) == -1)
  {
   printf("cant create test file\n");
   exit(1);
  }

  page_size = sysconf(_SC_PAGE_SIZE);

  /* set the MEMLOCK limit */
  rlim.rlim_cur = 2000;
  rlim.rlim_max = 2000;

  if ((ret = setrlimit(RLIMIT_MEMLOCK,&rlim)) != 0)
  {
   printf("Cant change limit values\n");
   exit(1);
  }

  addr = 0;
  while (1)
  {
  /* map a page into memory each time*/
  if ((addr = (char *) mmap(addr,page_size, PROT_READ |
PROT_WRITE,MAP_SHARED,fd,0)) == MAP_FAILED)
  {
   printf("cant do mmap on file\n");
   exit(1);
  }

  if (0 == i)
    addr1 = addr;
  i++;
  errno = 0;
  /* lock the mapped memory pagewise*/
  if ((ret = mlock((char *)addr, 1500)) == -1)
  {
   printf("errno value is %d\n", errno);
   printf("cant lock maped region\n");
   exit(1);
  }
  addr = addr + page_size;
 }
}
======================================================

This testcase results in an mlock() failure with errno 14 that is EFAULT,
but it has nowhere been specified that mlock() will return EFAULT.  When I
tested the same on older kernels like 2.6.18, I got the correct result i.e
errno 12 (ENOMEM).

I think in source code mlock(2), setting errno ENOMEM has been missed in
do_mlock() , on mlock_fixup() failure.

SUSv3 requires the following behavior frmo mlock(2).

[ENOMEM]
    Some or all of the address range specified by the addr and
    len arguments does not correspond to valid mapped pages
    in the address space of the process.

[EAGAIN]
    Some or all of the memory identified by the operation could not
    be locked when the call was made.

This rule isn't so nice and slighly strange.  but many people think
POSIX/SUS compliance is important.
