252af52146 ceph: fix d_release dop for snapdir, snapped dentries
We need to set the d_release dop for snapdir and snapped dentries so that
the ceph_dentry_info struct gets released.  We also use the dcache to
cache readdir results when possible, which only works if we know when
dentries are dropped from the cache.  Since we don't use the dcache for
readdir in the hidden snapdir, avoid that case in ceph_dentry_release.

6aa0b9dec5 KVM: MMU: fix conflict access permissions in direct sp
In no-direct mapping, we mark sp is 'direct' when we mapping the
guest's larger page, but its access is encoded form upper page-struct
entire not include the last mapping, it will cause access conflict.

For example, have this mapping:
        [W]
      / PDE1 -> |---|
  P[W]          |   | LPA
      \ PDE2 -> |---|
        [R]

P have two children, PDE1 and PDE2, both PDE1 and PDE2 mapping the
same lage page(LPA). The P's access is WR, PDE1's access is WR,
PDE2's access is RO(just consider read-write permissions here)

When guest access PDE1, we will create a direct sp for LPA, the sp's
access is from P, is W, then we will mark the ptes is W in this sp.

Then, guest access PDE2, we will find LPA's shadow page, is the same as
PDE's, and mark the ptes is RO.

So, if guest access PDE1, the incorrect #PF is occured.

Fixed by encode the last mapping access into direct shadow page

da5e37efe8 vmlinux.lds: fix .data..init_task output section (fix popwerpc boot)
The .data..init_task output section was missing
a load offset causing a popwerpc target to fail to boot.

Sean MacLennan tracked it down to the definition of
INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION().

There are only two users of INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION()
in the kernel today: cris and popwerpc.
cris do not support relocatable kernels and is thus not
impacted by this change.

Fix INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION() to specify load offset like
all other output sections.

171aa2caaa powerpc/mm: Fix bugs in huge page hashing
There's a couple of nasty bugs lurking in our huge page hashing code.

First, we don't check the access permission atomically with setting
the _PAGE_BUSY bit, which means that the PTE value we end up using
for the hashing might be different than the one we have checked
the access permissions for.

We've seen cases where that leads us to try to use an invalidated
PTE for hashing, causing all sort of "interesting" issues.

Then, we also failed to set _PAGE_DIRTY on a write access.

Finally, a minor tweak but we should return 0 when we find the
PTE busy, in order to just re-execute the access, rather than 1
which means going to do_page_fault().

ca91e6c09d powerpc/mm: Move around testing of _PAGE_PRESENT in hash code
Instead of adding _PAGE_PRESENT to the access permission mask
in each low level routine independently, we add it once from
hash_page().

We also move the preliminary access check (the racy one before
the PTE is locked) up so it applies to the huge page case. This
duplicates code in __hash_page_huge() which we'll remove in a
subsequent patch to fix a race in there.

If the hypervisor gives us an error on a hugepage insert we panic. The
normal page code already handles this by returning an error instead and we end
calling low_hash_fault which will just kill the task if possible.

d3e7e99f2f ACPI: create "processor.bm_check_disable" boot param
processor.bm_check_disable=1" prevents Linux from checking BM_STS
before entering C3-type cpu power states.

This may be useful for a system running acpi_idle
where the BIOS exports FADT C-states, _CST IO C-states,
or _CST FFH C-states with the BM_STS bit set;
while configuring the chipset to set BM_STS
more frequently than perhaps is optimal.

Note that such systems may have been developed
using a tickful OS that would quickly clear BM_STS,
rather than a tickless OS that may go for some time
between checking and clearing BM_STS.

Note also that an alternative for newer systems
is to use the intel_idle driver, which always
ignores BM_STS, relying Linux device drivers
to register constraints explicitly via PM_QOS.

718be4aaf3 ACPI: skip checking BM_STS if the BIOS doesn't ask for it
It turns out that there is a bit in the _CST for Intel FFH C3
that tells the OS if we should be checking BM_STS or not.

Linux has been unconditionally checking BM_STS.
If the chip-set is configured to enable BM_STS,
it can retard or completely prevent entry into
deep C-states -- as illustrated by turbostat:

00c5a9834b net: Fix corruption of skb csum field in pskb_expand_head() of net/core/skbuff.c
Make pskb_expand_head() check ip_summed to make sure csum_start is really
csum_start and not csum before adjusting it.

This fixes a bug I encountered using a Sun Quad-Fast Ethernet card and VLANs.
On my configuration, the sunhme driver produces skbs with differing amounts
of headroom on receive depending on the packet size.  See line 2030 of
drivers/net/sunhme.c; packets smaller than RX_COPY_THRESHOLD have 52 bytes
of headroom but packets larger than that cutoff have only 20 bytes.

When these packets reach the VLAN driver, vlan_check_reorder_header()
calls skb_cow(), which, if the packet has less than NET_SKB_PAD (== 32) bytes
of headroom, uses pskb_expand_head() to make more.

Then, pskb_expand_head() needs to adjust a lot of offsets into the skb,
including csum_start.  Since csum_start is a union with csum, if the packet
has a valid csum value this will corrupt it, which was the effect I observed.
The sunhme hardware computes receive checksums, so the skbs would be created
by the driver with ip_summed == CHECKSUM_COMPLETE and a valid csum field, and
then pskb_expand_head() would corrupt the csum field, leading to an "hw csum
error" message later on, for example in icmp_rcv() for pings larger than the
sunhme RX_COPY_THRESHOLD.

On the basis of the comment at the beginning of include/linux/skbuff.h,
I believe that the csum_start skb field is only meaningful if ip_csummed is
CSUM_PARTIAL, so this patch makes pskb_expand_head() adjust it only in that
case to avoid corrupting a valid csum value.

Please see my more in-depth disucssion of tracking down this bug for
more details if you like:

8a35747a5d macvtap: Limit packet queue length
Mark Wagner reported OOM symptoms when sending UDP traffic over
a macvtap link to a kvm receiver.

This appears to be caused by the fact that macvtap packet queues
are unlimited in length.  This means that if the receiver can't
keep up with the rate of flow, then we will hit OOM. Of course
it gets worse if the OOM killer then decides to kill the receiver.

This patch imposes a cap on the packet queue length, in the same
way as the tuntap driver, using the device TX queue length.

Please note that macvtap currently has no way of giving congestion
notification, that means the software device TX queue cannot be
used and packets will always be dropped once the macvtap driver
queue fills up.

This shouldn't be a great problem for the scenario where macvtap
is used to feed a kvm receiver, as the traffic is most likely
external in origin so congestion notification can't be applied
anyway.

Of course, if anybody decides to complain about guest-to-guest
UDP packet loss down the track, then we may have to revisit this.

Incidentally, this patch also fixes a real memory leak when
macvtap_get_queue fails.

Chris Wright noticed that for this patch to work, we need a
non-zero TX queue length.  This patch includes his work to change
the default macvtap TX queue length to 500.

cases where there is just source code by validating the resulting "ip".

It is still possible that we find goto labels that are in the function
address range, but only if they are located before the real address we
should be OK.

A change in the objdump output to have a clear marker separating
addresses from the disassembly would come handy, but we would still have
to deal with older versions.

4c0c03ca54 CIFS: Fix a malicious redirect problem in the DNS lookup code
Fix the security problem in the CIFS filesystem DNS lookup code in which a
malicious redirect could be installed by a random user by simply adding a
result record into one of their keyrings with add_key() and then invoking a
CIFS CFS lookup [CVE-2010-2524].

This is done by creating an internal keyring specifically for the caching of
DNS lookups.  To enforce the use of this keyring, the module init routine
creates a set of override credentials with the keyring installed as the thread
keyring and instructs request_key() to only install lookup result keys in that
keyring.

The override is then applied around the call to request_key().

This has some additional benefits when a kernel service uses this module to
request a key:

 (1) The result keys are owned by root, not the user that caused the lookup.

 (2) The result keys don't pop up in the user's keyrings.

 (3) The result keys don't come out of the quota of the user that caused the
     lookup.

The keyring can be viewed as root by doing cat /proc/keys:

2a0ca6c3 I-----     1 perm 1f030000     0     0 keyring   .dns_resolver: 1/4

It can then be listed with 'keyctl list' by root.

	# keyctl list 0x2a0ca6c3
	1 key in keyring:
	726766307: --alswrv     0     0 dns_resolver: foo.bar.com

Older firmwares fixed the middle byte of the Synaptics capabilities
query to 0x47, but starting with firmware 7.5 the middle byte

0327559151 x86: auditsyscall: fix fastpath return value after reschedule
In the CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL fast-path for x86 64-bit system calls,
we can pass a bad return value and/or error indication for the
system call to audit_syscall_exit().  This happens when
TIF_NEED_RESCHED was set as the system call returned, so we went
out to schedule() and came back to the exit-audit fast-path.  The
fix is to reload the user return value register from the pt_regs
before using it for audit_syscall_exit().

Both the 32-bit kernel's fast path and the 64-bit kernel's 32-bit
system call fast paths work slightly differently, so that they
always leave the fast path entirely to reschedule and don't return
there, so they don't have the analogous bugs.

b0679c63db debug_core,kdb: fix kgdb_connected bit set in the wrong place
Immediately following an exit from the kdb shell the kgdb_connected
variable should be set to zero, unless there are breakpoints planted.
If the kgdb_connected variable is not zeroed out with kdb, it is
impossible to turn off kdb.

This patch is merely a work around for now, the real fix will check
for the breakpoints.

In the process of merging kdb to the mainline, the kdb lsmod command
stopped printing the base load address of kernel modules.  This is
needed for using kdb in conjunction with external tools such as gdb.

Simply restore the functionality by adding a kdb_printf for the base
load address of the kernel modules.

fb82c0ff27 repair gdbstub to match the gdbserial protocol specification
The gdbserial protocol handler should return an empty packet instead
of an error string when ever it responds to a command it does not
implement.

The problem cases come from a debugger client sending
qTBuffer, qTStatus, qSearch, qSupported.

The incorrect response from the gdbstub leads the debugger clients to
not function correctly.  Recent versions of gdb will not detach correctly as a result of this behavior.
