bonding:reset backup and inactive flag of slave

Eduard Sinelnikov (eduard.sinelnikov@gmail.com) found that if we change
bonding mode from active backup to round robin, some slaves are still keeping
"backup", and won't transmit packets.

As Jay Vosburgh(fubar@us.ibm.com) pointed out that we can work around that by
removing the bond_is_active_slave() check, because the "backup" flag is only
meaningful for active backup mode.

But if we just simply ignore the bond_is_active_slave() check,
the transmission will work fine, but we can't maintain the correct value of
"backup" flag for each slaves, though it is meaningless for other mode than
active backup.

I'd like to reset "backup" and "inactive" flag in bond_open,
thus we can keep the correct value of them.

As for bond_is_active_slave(), I'd like to prepare another patch to handle it.

V2:
Use C style comment.
Move read_lock(&bond->curr_slave_lock).
Replace restore with reset, for active backup mode, it means "restore",
but for other modes, it means "reset".

drivers/net/can/sja1000/plx_pci.c: eliminate double free

In this code, the failure_cleanup label calls the function
plx_pci_del_card, which frees everything in the card->net_dev array.  dev
is placed in this array immediately after allocation, so the two subsequent
jumps to failure_cleanup should not also call free_sja1000dev, but the
second one does.

If plx_pci_check_sja1000 fails, then free_sja1000dev is also called on
dev.  Because dev is already in the card->net_dev array, this implies that
when plx_pci_del_card is later called, it may get freed again.  So that
entry is reset to NULL after the free.

Finally, if there is a problem with one channel, there will be a hole in the
array.  card->channels counts the number of channels that have succeeded,
and does not keep track of the index of the largest element in the array
that is valid.  So the loop in plx_pci_del_card is changed to go up to

When the Manageability Engine (ME) is enabled on 82579, it periodically
accesses some MAC CSR registers.  There is an arbiter in hardware which
prevents simultaneous access of these registers by the host software, i.e.
the driver.  There is a hardware bug in the aribter that signals a host
access of the registers later than it actually happens.  A write of the
Transmit or Receive Descriptor Tail register could result in an incorrect
value if the driver and ME perform simultaneous accesses which could result
in an access to an invalid memory address.  This would return an
Unsupported Request which could hang the hardware.  Workaround the issue by
checking the FWSM register bit24 which is set by ME before it accesses the
MAC CSR registers.

13 years agomove RLIMIT_NPROC check from set_user() to do_execve_common()
Vasiliy Kulikov [Mon, 8 Aug 2011 15:02:04 +0000 (19:02 +0400)]
move RLIMIT_NPROC check from set_user() to do_execve_common()

The patch http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/13/226 introduced an RLIMIT_NPROC
check in set_user() to check for NPROC exceeding via setuid() and
similar functions.

Before the check there was a possibility to greatly exceed the allowed
number of processes by an unprivileged user if the program relied on
rlimit only.  But the check created new security threat: many poorly
written programs simply don't check setuid() return code and believe it
cannot fail if executed with root privileges.  So, the check is removed
in this patch because of too often privilege escalations related to
buggy programs.

The NPROC can still be enforced in the common code flow of daemons
spawning user processes.  Most of daemons do fork()+setuid()+execve().
The check introduced in execve() (1) enforces the same limit as in
setuid() and (2) doesn't create similar security issues.

Neil Brown suggested to track what specific process has exceeded the
limit by setting PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED process flag.  With the change only
this process would fail on execve(), and other processes' execve()
behaviour is not changed.

Solar Designer suggested to re-check whether NPROC limit is still
exceeded at the moment of execve().  If the process was sleeping for
days between set*uid() and execve(), and the NPROC counter step down
under the limit, the defered execve() failure because NPROC limit was
exceeded days ago would be unexpected.  If the limit is not exceeded
anymore, we clear the flag on successful calls to execve() and fork().

The flag is also cleared on successful calls to set_user() as the limit
was exceeded for the previous user, not the current one.

Similar check was introduced in -ow patches (without the process flag).

v3 - clear PF_NPROC_EXCEEDED on successful calls to set_user().

counter while writing to one of its match registers, we'll switch to
using two separate timers -- timer 0 as clockevent timer, which we'll
start and stop on every invocation of ->set_next_event(), and timer 1
as clocksource timer, which will be free-running.

hfsc peeks into prio qdisc, which will then peek into sfq.

Next, hfsc tries to dequeue from prio, but prio will call sfq dequeue
directly, which may return NULL instead of previously peeked-at skb.

checking whether we should wait for draining on the cache.  The cache is
already cleaned up, though.

There is also a theoretical chance that the cached memcg gets freed
between we test for the FLUSHING_CACHED_CHARGE and dereference it in
mem_cgroup_same_or_subtree:

  test_bit()                    ...
  <preempted>             mem_cgroup_destroy
  use after free

The percpu_charge_mutex protected from this race because sync draining
is exclusive.

It is safer to revert now and come up with a more parallel
implementation later.
