fix umask when noACL kernel meets extN tuned for ACLs
Fix insecure default behaviour reported by Tigran Aivazian: if an ext2
or ext3 filesystem is tuned to mount with "acl", but mounted by
a kernel built without ACL support, then umask was ignored when creating
inodes - though root or user has umask 022, touch creates files as 0666,
and mkdir creates directories as 0777.
This appears to have worked right until 2.6.11, when a fix to the default
mode on symlinks (always 0777) assumed VFS applies umask: which it does,
unless the mount is marked for ACLs; but ext[23] set MS_POSIXACL in
s_flags according to s_mount_opt set according to def_mount_opts.
We could revert to the 2.6.10 ext[23]_init_acl (adding an S_ISLNK test);
but other filesystems only set MS_POSIXACL when ACLs are configured. We
could fix this at another level; but it seems most robust to avoid setting
the s_mount_opt flag in the first place (at the expense of more ifdefs).
Likewise don't set the XATTR_USER flag when built without XATTR support.

make ppc64 current preempt-safe
Repeated -j20 kernel builds on a G5 Quad running an SMP PREEMPT kernel
would often collapse within a day, some exec failing with "Bad address".
In each case examined, load_elf_binary was doing a kernel_read, but
generic_file_aio_read's access_ok saw current->thread.fs.seg as USER_DS
instead of KERNEL_DS.
objdump of filemap.o shows gcc 4.1.0 emitting "mr r5,r13 ... ld r9,416(r5)"
here for get_paca()->__current, instead of the expected and much more usual
"ld r9,416(r13)"; I've seen other gcc4s do the same, but perhaps not gcc3s.
So, if the task is preempted and rescheduled on a different cpu in between
the mr and the ld, r5 will be looking at a different paca_struct from the
one it's now on, pick up the wrong __current, and perhaps the wrong seg.
Presumably much worse could happen elsewhere, though that split is rare.
Other architectures appear to be safe (x86_64's read_pda is more limiting
than get_paca), but ppc64 needs to force "current" into one instruction.

read_zero_pagealigned() locking fix
Ramiro Voicu hits the BUG_ON(!pte_none(*pte)) in zeromap_pte_range: kernel
bugzilla 7645. Right: read_zero_pagealigned uses down_read of mmap_sem,
but another thread's racing read of /dev/zero, or a normal fault, can
easily set that pte again, in between zap_page_range and zeromap_page_range
getting there. It's been wrong ever since 2.4.3.
The simple fix is to use down_write instead, but that would serialize reads
of /dev/zero more than at present: perhaps some app would be badly
affected. So instead let zeromap_page_range return the error instead of
BUG_ON, and read_zero_pagealigned break to the slower clear_user loop in
that case - there's no need to optimize for it.
Use -EEXIST for when a pte is found: BUG_ON in mmap_zero (the other user of
zeromap_page_range), though it really isn't interesting there. And since
mmap_zero wants -EAGAIN for out-of-memory, the zeromaps better return that
than -ENOMEM.

IB/mad: Fix race between cancel and receive completion
When ib_cancel_mad() is called, it puts the canceled send on a list
and schedules a "flushed" callback from process context. However,
this leaves a window where a receive completion could be processed
before the send is fully flushed.
This is fine, except that ib_find_send_mad() will find the MAD and
return it to the receive processing, which results in the sender
getting both a successful receive and a "flushed" send completion for
the same request. Understandably, this confuses the sender, which is
expecting only one of these two callbacks, and leads to grief such as
a use-after-free in IPoIB.
Fix this by changing ib_find_send_mad() to return a send struct only
if the status is still successful (and not "flushed"). The search of
the send_list already had this check, so this patch just adds the same
check to the search of the wait_list.

On a custom board with ds1337 RTC I found that upgrade from 2.6.15 to

The main problem are changes to ds1337_init_client().
When a ds1337 recognizes a problem (e.g. power or clock failure) bit 7
in status register is set. This has to be reset by writing 0 to status
register. But since there are only 16 byte written to the chip and the
first byte is interpreted as an address, the status register (which is
the 16th) is never written.
The other problem is, that initializing all registers to zero is not
valid for day, date and month register. Funny enough this is checked by
ds1337_detect(), which depends on this values not being zero. So then
treated by ds1337_init_client() the ds1337 is not detected anymore,
whereas the failure bit in the status register is still set.

It is possible to have tasklets get scheduled before softirqd has had a chance

In particular, i386 is affected by this during startup, and is visible when
using a very large initrd; during the time it takes for the initrd to be

possible that resending of a hardware IRQ via a softirq triggers the same bug.
Because of different timing conditions, this shows up in all emulators and

[PATCH] fuse: fix Oops in lookup
Fix bug in certain error paths of lookup routines. The request object was
reused for sending FORGET, which is illegal. This bug could cause an Oops
in 2.6.18. In earlier versions it might silently corrupt memory, but this
is very unlikely.
These error paths are never triggered by libfuse, so this wasn't noticed
even with the 2.6.18 kernel, only with a filesystem using the raw kernel
interface.
Thanks to Russ Cox for the bug report and test filesystem.

[PATCH] AGP: Allocate AGP pages with GFP_DMA32 by default
Not all graphic page remappers support physical addresses over the 4GB
mark for remapping, so while some do (the AMD64 GART always did, and I
just fixed the i965 to do so properly), we're safest off just forcing
GFP_DMA32 allocations to make sure graphics pages get allocated in the
low 32-bit address space by default.
AGP sub-drivers that really care, and can do better, could just choose
to implement their own allocator (or we could add another "64-bit safe"
default allocator for their use), but quite frankly, you're not likely
to care in practice.
So for now, this trivial change means that we won't be allocating pages
that we can't map correctly by mistake on x86-64.
[ On traditional 32-bit x86, this could never happen, because GFP_KERNEL
would never allocate any highmem memory anyway ]

[PATCH] IA64: bte_unaligned_copy() transfers one extra cache line.
When called to do a transfer that has a start offset within the cache
line which is uneven between source and destination and a length which
terminates the source of the copy exactly on a cache line, one extra
line gets copied into a temporary buffer. This is normally not an issue
since the buffer is a kernel buffer and only the requested information
gets copied into the user buffer.
The problem arises when the source ends at the very last physical page
of memory. That last cache line does not exist and results in the SHUB

[PATCH] NETFILTER: Missed and reordered checks in {arp,ip,ip6}_tables
Backport fix for missing ruleset validation in {arp,ip,ip6}_tables
and a fix on top which fixes a regression in the first patch.
There is a number of issues in parsing user-provided table in
translate_table(). Malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN may crash system by
passing special-crafted table to the *_tables.
The first issue is that mark_source_chains() function is called before entry
content checks. In case of standard target, mark_source_chains() function
uses t->verdict field in order to determine new position. But the check, that
this field leads no further, than the table end, is in check_entry(), which
is called later, than mark_source_chains().
The second issue, that there is no check that target_offset points inside
entry. If so, *_ITERATE_MATCH macro will follow further, than the entry
ends. As a result, we'll have oops or memory disclosure.
And the third issue, that there is no check that the target is completely
inside entry. Results are the same, as in previous issue.
Upstream commit 590bdf7fd2292b47c428111cb1360e312eff207e introduced a
regression in match/target hook validation. mark_source_chains builds
a bitmask for each rule representing the hooks it can be reached from,
which is then used by the matches and targets to make sure they are
only called from valid hooks. The patch moved the match/target specific
validation before the mark_source_chains call, at which point the mask
is always zero.
This patch returns back to the old order and moves the standard checks
to mark_source_chains. This allows to get rid of a special case for
standard targets as a nice side-effect.
