This is the code to load packet data into a register:
k = fentry->k;
if (k < 0) {
...
} else {
u32 _tmp, *p;
p = skb_header_pointer(skb, k, 4, &_tmp);
if (p != NULL) {
A = ntohl(*p);
continue;
}
}
skb_header_pointer checks if the requested data is within the
linear area:
int hlen = skb_headlen(skb);
if (offset + len <= hlen)
return skb->data + offset;
When offset is within [INT_MAX-len+1..INT_MAX] the addition will
result in a negative number which is <= hlen.
I couldn't trigger a crash on my AMD64 with 2GB of memory, but a
coworker tried on his x86 machine and it crashed immediately.
This patch fixes the check in skb_header_pointer to handle large
positive offsets similar to skb_copy_bits. Invalid data can still
be accessed using negative offsets (also similar to skb_copy_bits),
anyone using negative offsets needs to verify them himself.

The following patch adds some ioctls to include/linux/compat_ioctl.h
to allow using ppdev from the 32 bit user space on sparc64.
This patch also adds the PPDEV option in the sparc64 menu, near Parallel
printer support in the 'General machine setup' submenu.
All those ioctls seem to be compatible, since (correct me if I'm wrong)
they dont use the 'long' type. See include/linux/ppdev.h.
The application I used to test the new ioctls only used the following:
PPEXCL
PPCLAIM
PPNEGOT
PPGETMODES
PPRCONTROL
PPWCONTROL
PPDATADIR
PPWDATA

But I beleive that the other ioctls will work fine.

The dynamic pci id logic has been bothering me for a while, and now that
I started to look into how to move some of this to the driver core, I
thought it was time to clean it all up.
It ends up making the code smaller, and easier to follow, and fixes a
few bugs at the same time (dynamic ids were not being matched
everywhere, and so could be missed on some call paths for new devices,
semaphore not needed to be grabbed when adding a new id and calling the
driver core, etc.)
I also renamed the function pci_match_device() to pci_match_id() as
that's what it really does.

This patch increases the number of resource pointers in the
pci_bus structure. This is needed to store >4 resource ranges
for host bridges and transparent PCI bridges. With this change,
all PCI buses will have more resource pointers, but most PCI

The code was wrong in several aspects. The locking order was
inconsistent, the device aquire code did not reset a variable
after a wakeup and the wakeup handling was not working for
applications where multiple chips are sharing a single
hardware controller.
When a hardware controller is available the locking is now
reduced to the hardware controller lock and the waitqueue is
moved to the hardware controller structure in order to avoid
a wake_up_all().
The problem was pointed out by Ben Dooks, who also found the
missing variable reset as main cause for his deadlock problem.

After seeing, at best, "guesses" as to the following kind
of information in several drivers, I decided that we really
need a way for platforms to specifically give advice in this
area for what works best with their PCI controller implementation.
Basically, this new interface gives DMA bursting advice on
PCI. There are three forms of the advice:
1) Burst as much as possible, it is not necessary to end bursts
on some particular boundary for best performance.
2) Burst on some byte count multiple. A DMA burst to some multiple of
number of bytes may be done, but it is important to end the burst
on an exact multiple for best performance.
The best example of this I am aware of are the PPC64 PCI
controllers, where if you end a burst mid-cacheline then
chip has to refetch the data and the IOMMU translations
which hurts performance a lot.
3) Burst on a single byte count multiple. Bursts shall end
exactly on the next multiple boundary for best performance.
Sparc64 and Alpha's PCI controllers operate this way. They
disconnect any device which tries to burst across a cacheline
boundary.
Actually, newer sparc64 PCI controllers do not have this behavior.
That is why the "pdev" is passed into the interface, so I can
add code later to check which PCI controller the system is using
and give advice accordingly.

The following is the second version of the function return probe patches
I sent out earlier this week. Changes since my last submission include:
* Fix in ppc64 code removing an unneeded call to re-enable preemption
* Fix a build problem in ia64 when kprobes was turned off
* Added another BUG_ON check to each of the architecture trampoline
handlers
My initial patch description ==>
From my experiences with adding return probes to x86_64 and ia64, and the
feedback on LKML to those patches, I think we can simplify the design
for return probes.
The following patch tweaks the original design such that:
* Instead of storing the stack address in the return probe instance, the
task pointer is stored. This gives us all we need in order to:
- find the correct return probe instance when we enter the trampoline
(even if we are recursing)
- find all left-over return probe instances when the task is going away
This has the side effect of simplifying the implementation since more
work can be done in kernel/kprobes.c since architecture specific knowledge
of the stack layout is no longer required. Specifically, we no longer have:
- arch_get_kprobe_task()
- arch_kprobe_flush_task()
- get_rp_inst_tsk()
- get_rp_inst()
- trampoline_post_handler() <see next bullet>
* Instead of splitting the return probe handling and cleanup logic across
the pre and post trampoline handlers, all the work is pushed into the
pre function (trampoline_probe_handler), and then we skip single stepping
the original function. In this case the original instruction to be single
stepped was just a NOP, and we can do without the extra interruption.
The new flow of events to having a return probe handler execute when a target
function exits is:
* At system initialization time, a kprobe is inserted at the beginning of
kretprobe_trampoline. kernel/kprobes.c use to handle this on it's own,
but ia64 needed to do this a little differently (i.e. a function pointer
is really a pointer to a structure containing the instruction pointer and
a global pointer), so I added the notion of arch_init(), so that
kernel/kprobes.c:init_kprobes() now allows architecture specific
initialization by calling arch_init() before exiting. Each architecture
now registers a kprobe on it's own trampoline function.
* register_kretprobe() will insert a kprobe at the beginning of the targeted
function with the kprobe pre_handler set to arch_prepare_kretprobe
(still no change)
* When the target function is entered, the kprobe is fired, calling
arch_prepare_kretprobe (still no change)
* In arch_prepare_kretprobe() we try to get a free instance and if one is
available then we fill out the instance with a pointer to the return probe,
the original return address, and a pointer to the task structure (instead
of the stack address.) Just like before we change the return address
to the trampoline function and mark the instance as used.
If multiple return probes are registered for a given target function,
then arch_prepare_kretprobe() will get called multiple times for the same
task (since our kprobe implementation is able to handle multiple kprobes
at the same address.) Past the first call to arch_prepare_kretprobe,
we end up with the original address stored in the return probe instance
pointing to our trampoline function. (This is a significant difference
from the original arch_prepare_kretprobe design.)
* Target function executes like normal and then returns to kretprobe_trampoline.
* kprobe inserted on the first instruction of kretprobe_trampoline is fired
and calls trampoline_probe_handler() (no change here)
* trampoline_probe_handler() consumes each of the instances associated with
the current task by calling the registered handler function and marking
the instance as unused until an instance is found that has a return address
different then the trampoline function.
(change similar to my previous ia64 RFC)
* If the task is killed with some left-over return probe instances (meaning
that a target function was entered, but never returned), then we just
free any instances associated with the task. (Not much different other
then we can handle this without calling architecture specific functions.)
There is a known problem that this patch does not yet solve where
registering a return probe flush_old_exec or flush_thread will put us
in a bad state. Most likely the best way to handle this is to not allow
registering return probes on these two functions.
(Significant change)
This patch series applies to the 2.6.12-rc6-mm1 kernel, and provides:
* kernel/kprobes.c changes
* i386 patch of existing return probes implementation
* x86_64 patch of existing return probe implementation
* ia64 implementation
* ppc64 implementation (provided by Ananth)
This patch implements the architecture independant changes for a reworking
of the kprobes based function return probes design. Changes include:
* Removing functions for querying a return probe instance off a stack address
* Removing the stack_addr field from the kretprobe_instance definition,
and adding a task pointer
* Adding architecture specific initialization via arch_init()
* Removing extern definitions for the architecture trampoline functions
(this isn't needed anymore since the architecture handles the
initialization of the kprobe in the return probe trampoline function.)

I believe at least for seccomp it's worth to turn off the tsc, not just for
HT but for the L2 cache too. So it's up to you, either you turn it off
completely (which isn't very nice IMHO) or I recommend to apply this below
patch.
This has been tested successfully on x86-64 against current cogito
repository (i686 compiles so I didn't bother testing ;). People selling
the cpu through cpushare may appreciate this bit for a peace of mind.
There's no way to get any timing info anymore with this applied
(gettimeofday is forbidden of course). The seccomp environment is
completely deterministic so it can't be allowed to get timing info, it has
to be deterministic so in the future I can enable a computing mode that
does a parallel computing for each task with server side transparent
checkpointing and verification that the output is the same from all the 2/3
seller computers for each task, without the buyer even noticing (for now
the verification is left to the buyer client side and there's no
checkpointing, since that would require more kernel changes to track the
dirty bits but it'll be easy to extend once the basic mode is finished).
Eliminating a cold-cache read of the cr4 global variable will save one
cacheline during the tlb flush while making the code per-cpu-safe at the
same time. Thanks to Mikael Pettersson for noticing the tlb flush wasn't
per-cpu-safe.
The global tlb flush can run from irq (IPI calling do_flush_tlb_all) but
it'll be transparent to the switch_to code since the IPI won't make any
change to the cr4 contents from the point of view of the interrupted code
and since it's now all per-cpu stuff, it will not race. So no need to
disable irqs in switch_to slow path.

This provides declarations for new requests, descriptors, and bitfields as
defined in the Wireless USB 1.0 spec. Device support will involve a new
"Wire Adapter" device class, connecting a USB Host to a cluster of wireless
USB devices. There will be two adapter types:
* Host Wireless Adapter (HWA): the downstream link is wireless, which
connects a wireless USB host to wireless USB devices (not unlike like
a hub) including to the second type of adapter.
* Device Wireless Adapter (DWA): the upstream link is wireless, for
connecting existing USB devices through wired links into the cluser.
All wireless USB devices will need persistent (and secure!) key storage, and
it's probable that Linux -- or device firmware -- will need to be involved
with that to bootstrap the initial secure key exchange.
Some user interface is required in that initial key exchange, and since the
most "hands-off" one is a wired USB link, I suspect wireless operation will
usually not be the only mode for wireless USB devices. (Plus, devices can
recharge batteries using wired USB...) All other key exchange protocols need
error prone user interactions, like copying and/or verifying keys.
It'll likely be a while before we have commercial Wireless USB hardware,
much less Linux implementations that know how to use it.

USB byteorder (matching the annotation in <linux/usb_ch9.h> and usage
in the host side stack):
- definition in <linux/usb_gadget.h>
- gadget drivers: Ethernet/RNDIS, serial/ACM, file_storage, gadgetfs.
- dummy_hcd
It also includes some other similar changes as suggested by "sparse",
which was used to detect byteorder bugs.

This patch provides an "isp116x-hcd" driver for Philips'
ISP1160/ISP1161 USB host controllers.
The driver:
- is relatively small, meant for use on embedded platforms.
- runs usbtests 1-14 without problems for days.
- has been in use by 6-7 different people on ARM and PPC platforms,
running a range of devices including USB hubs.
- supports suspend/resume of both the platform device and the root hub;
supports remote wakeup of the root hub (but NOT the platform device)
by USB devices.
- does NOT support ISO transfers (nobody has asked for them).
- is PIO-only.

- Adjust slice values
- Instead of one async queue, one is defined per priority level. This
prevents kernel threads (such as reiserfs/x and others) that run at
higher io priority from conflicting with others. Previously, it was a
coin toss what io prio the async queue got, it was defined by who
first set up the queue.
- Let a time slice only begin, when the previous slice is completely
done. Previously we could be somewhat unfair to a new sync slice, if
the previous slice was async and had several ios queued. This might
need a little tweaking if throughput suffers a little due to this,
allowing perhaps an overlap of a single request or so.
- Optimize the calling of kblockd_schedule_work() by doing it only when
it is strictly necessary (no requests in driver and work left to do).
- Correct sync vs async logic. A 'normal' process can be purely async as
well, and a flusher can be purely sync as well. Sync or async is now a
property of the class defined and requests pending. Previously writers
could be considered sync, when they were really async.
- Get rid of the bit fields in cfqq and crq, use flags instead.
- Various other cleanups and fixes
