The BSS section macros in vmlinux.lds.h currently place the .sbss
input section outside the bounds of [__bss_start, __bss_end]. On all
architectures except for microblaze that handle both .sbss and
__bss_start/__bss_end, this is wrong: the .sbss input section is
within the range [__bss_start, __bss_end]. Relatedly, the example
code at the top of the file actually has __bss_start/__bss_end defined
twice; I believe the right fix here is to define them in the
BSS_SECTION macro but not in the BSS macro.
Another problem with the current macros is that several
architectures have an ALIGN(4) or some other small number just before
__bss_stop in their linker scripts. The BSS_SECTION macro currently
hardcodes this to 4; while it should really be an argument. It also
ignores its sbss_align argument; fix that.
mn10300 is the only user at present of any of the macros touched by
this patch. It looks like mn10300 actually was incorrectly converted
to use the new BSS() macro (the alignment of 4 prior to conversion was
a __bss_stop alignment, but the argument to the BSS macro is a start
alignment). So fix this as well.
I'd like acks from Sam and David on this one. Also CCing Paul, since
he has a patch from me which will need to be updated to use
BSS_SECTION(0, PAGE_SIZE, 4) once this gets merged.

Commit ab0fd1debe tries to prevent merge
of requests with different failfast settings. In elv_rq_merge_ok(),
it compares new bio's failfast flags against the merge target
request's. However, the flag testing accessors for bio and blk don't
return boolean but the tested bit value directly and FAILFAST on bio
and blk don't match, so directly comparing them with == results in
false negative unnecessary preventing merge of readahead requests.
This patch convert the results to boolean by negating them before
comparison.

ftrace_trace_onoff_callback() will return an error even if we do the
right operation, for example:
# echo _spin_*:traceon:10 > set_ftrace_filter
-bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# cat set_ftrace_filter
#### all functions enabled ####
_spin_trylock_bh:traceon:count=10
_spin_unlock_irq:traceon:count=10
_spin_unlock_bh:traceon:count=10
_spin_lock_irq:traceon:count=10
_spin_unlock:traceon:count=10
_spin_trylock:traceon:count=10
_spin_unlock_irqrestore:traceon:count=10
_spin_lock_irqsave:traceon:count=10
_spin_lock_bh:traceon:count=10
_spin_lock:traceon:count=10
We want to set _spin_*:traceon:10 to set_ftrace_filter, it complains
with "Invalid argument", but the operation is successful.
This is because ftrace_process_regex() returns the number of functions that
matched the pattern. If the number is not 0, this value is returned
by ftrace_regex_write() whereas we want to return the number of bytes
virtually written.
Also the file offset pointer is not updated in this case.
If the number of matched functions is lower than the number of bytes written
by the user, this results to a reprocessing of the string given by the user with
a lower size, leading to a malformed ftrace regex and then a -EINVAL returned.
So, this patch fixes it by returning 0 if no error occured.
The fix also applies on 2.6.30

(net: sk_prot_alloc() should not blindly overwrite memory)
took care of not zeroing whole new socket at allocation time.
sock_copy() is another spot where we should be very careful.
We should not set refcnt to a non null value, until
we are sure other fields are correctly setup, or
a lockless reader could catch this socket by mistake,
while not fully (re)initialized.
This patch puts sk_node & sk_refcnt to the very beginning
of struct sock to ease sock_copy() & sk_prot_alloc() job.
We add appropriate smp_wmb() before sk_refcnt initializations
to match our RCU requirements (changes to sock keys should
be committed to memory before sk_refcnt setting)

Bonding device forbids slave device of different types under the same
master.
However, it is possible for a bonding master to change type during its
lifetime. This can be either from ARPHRD_ETHER to ARPHRD_INFINIBAND
or the other way arround. The change of type requires device level
multicast address cleanup because device level multicast addresses
depend on the device type.
The patch adds a call to dev_close() before the bonding master changes
type and dev_open() just after that.
In the example below I enslaved an IPoIB device (ib0) under
bond0. Since each bonding master starts as device of type ARPHRD_ETHER
by default, a change of type occurs when ib0 is enslaved.
This is how /proc/net/dev_mcast looks like without the patch
5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05
5 bond0 1 0 01005e000116

6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff00000000000000000001
and this is how it looks like after the patch.

If a tty in N_TTY mode with echo enabled manages to get itself into a state
where
- echo characters are pending
- FASYNC is enabled
- tty_write_wakeup is called from either
- a device write path (pty)
- an IRQ (serial)
then it either deadlocks or explodes taking a mutex in the IRQ path.
On the serial side it is almost impossible to reproduce because you have to
go from a full serial port to a near empty one with echo characters
pending. The pty case happens to have become possible to trigger using
emacs and ptys, the pty changes having created a scenario which shows up
this bug.
The code path is
n_tty:process_echoes() (takes mutex)
tty_io:tty_put_char()
pty:pty_write (or serial paths)
tty_wakeup (from pty_write or serial IRQ)
n_tty_write_wakeup()

Turning on this flag could prevent the compiler from optimising away
some "useless" checks for null pointers. Such bugs can sometimes become
exploitable at compile time because of the -O2 optimisation.
See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.1.2/gcc/Optimize-Options.html
An example that clearly shows this 'problem' is commit 6bf67672.
static void __devexit agnx_pci_remove(struct pci_dev *pdev)
{
struct ieee80211_hw *dev = pci_get_drvdata(pdev);
- struct agnx_priv *priv = dev->priv;
+ struct agnx_priv *priv;
AGNX_TRACE;
if (!dev)
return;
+ priv = dev->priv;
By reverting this patch, and compile it with and without
-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks flag, we can see that the check for dev
is compiled away.
call printk #
- testq %r12, %r12 # dev
- je .L94 #,
movq %r12, %rdi # dev,
Clearly the 'fix' is to stop using dev before it is tested, but building
with -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks flag at least makes it harder to
abuse.
