ath5k: correct handling of rx status fields

ath5k_rx_status fields rs_antenna and rs_more are u8s, but we
were setting them with bitwise ANDs of 32-bit values.

As a consequence, jumbo frames would not be discarded as intended.
Then, because the hw rate value of such frames is zero, and, since

packets would trigger the following WARN_ON:

Fix logic error in rfkill_check_duplicity

Ok, I believe this is due to the addition of rfkill_check_duplicity in
rfkill and the fact that test_bit actually returns a negative value
rather than the postive one expected (which is of course equally true).
So when the second WLAN device (the hso device, with the EEE PC WLAN
being the first) comes along rfkill_check_duplicity returns a negative
value and so rfkill_register returns an error. Patch below fixes this

mv643xx_eth: fix SMI bus access timeouts

The mv643xx_eth mii bus implementation uses wait_event_timeout() to
wait for SMI completion interrupts.

If wait_event_timeout() would return zero, mv643xx_eth would conclude
that the SMI access timed out, but this is not necessarily true --
wait_event_timeout() can also return zero in the case where the SMI
completion interrupt did happen in time but where it took longer than
the requested timeout for the process performing the SMI access to be
scheduled again.  This would lead to occasional SMI access timeouts
when the system would be under heavy load.

The fix is to ignore the return value of wait_event_timeout(), and
to re-check the SMI done bit after wait_event_timeout() returns to
determine whether or not the SMI access timed out.

16 years agogianfar: Fix race in TBI/SerDes configuration
Trent Piepho [Fri, 31 Oct 2008 01:17:06 +0000 (18:17 -0700)]
gianfar: Fix race in TBI/SerDes configuration

The init_phy() function attaches to the PHY, then configures the
SerDes<->TBI link (in SGMII mode).  The TBI is on the MDIO bus with the PHY
(sort of) and is accessed via the gianfar's MDIO registers, using the
functions gfar_local_mdio_read/write(), which don't do any locking.

The previously attached PHY will start a work-queue on a timer, and
probably an irq handler as well, which will talk to the PHY and thus use
the MDIO bus.  This uses phy_read/write(), which have locking, but not
against the gfar_local_mdio versions.

The result is that PHY code will try to use the MDIO bus at the same time
as the SerDes setup code, corrupting the transfers.

Setting up the SerDes before attaching to the PHY will insure that there is
no race between the SerDes code and *our* PHY, but doesn't fix everything.
Typically the PHYs for all gianfar devices are on the same MDIO bus, which
is associated with the first gianfar device.  This means that the first
gianfar's SerDes code could corrupt the MDIO transfers for a different
gianfar's PHY.

The lock used by phy_read/write() is contained in the mii_bus structure,
which is pointed to by the PHY.  This is difficult to access from the
gianfar drivers, as there is no link between a gianfar device and the
mii_bus which shares the same MDIO registers.  As far as the device layer
and drivers are concerned they are two unrelated devices (which happen to
share registers).

Generally all gianfar devices' PHYs will be on the bus associated with the
first gianfar.  But this might not be the case, so simply locking the
gianfar's PHY's mii bus might not lock the mii bus that the SerDes setup
code is going to use.

We solve this by having the code that creates the gianfar platform device
look in the device tree for an mdio device that shares the gianfar's
registers.  If one is found the ID of its platform device is saved in the
gianfar's platform data.

A new function in the gianfar mii code, gfar_get_miibus(), can use the bus
ID to search through the platform devices for a gianfar_mdio device with
the right ID.  The platform device's driver data is the mii_bus structure,
which the SerDes setup code can use to lock the current bus.

16 years agobonding: fix panic when taking bond interface down before removing module

bonding: fix panic when taking bond interface down before removing module

A panic was discovered with bonding when using mode 5 or 6 and trying to
remove the slaves from the bond after the interface was taken down.
When calling 'ifconfig bond0 down' the following happens:

    bond_close()
        bond_alb_deinitialize()
            tlb_deinitialize()
kfree(bond_info->tx_hashtbl)
                bond_info->tx_hashtbl = NULL

Unfortunately if there are still slaves in the bond, when removing the
module the following happens:

    bonding_exit()
        bond_free_all()
            bond_release_all()
                bond_alb_deinit_slave()
                    tlb_clear_slave()
                        tx_hash_table = BOND_ALB_INFO(bond).tx_hashtbl
u32 next_index = tx_hash_table[index].next

As you might guess we panic when trying to access a few entries into the
table that no longer exists.

I experimented with several options (like moving the calls to
tlb_deinitialize somewhere else), but it really makes the most sense to
be part of the bond_close routine.  It also didn't seem logical move
tlb_clear_slave around too much, so the simplest option seems to add a
check in tlb_clear_slave to make sure we haven't already wiped the
tx_hashtbl away before searching for all the non-existent hash-table
entries that used to point to the slave as the output interface.

|     x86: convert cpuinfo_x86 array to a per_cpu array

We've had an extra field in cpuinfo_x86 which is cpu_index.
Unfortunately, voyager has never initialised this, although the only
noticeable impact seems to be that /proc/cpuinfo shows all zeros for
the processor ids.

Anyway, fix this by initialising the boot CPU properly and setting the
index when the secondaries update.

ftrace: handle archs that do not support irqs_disabled_flags

Impact: build fix on non-lockdep architectures

Some architectures do not support a way to read the irq flags that
is set from "local_irq_save(flags)" to determine if interrupts were
disabled or enabled. Ftrace uses this information to display to the user
if the trace occurred with interrupts enabled or disabled.

Besides the fact that those archs that do not support this will fail to
compile, unless they fix it, we do not want to have the trace simply
say interrupts were not disabled or they were enabled, without knowing
the real answer.

This patch adds a 'X' in the output to let the user know that the
architecture they are running on does not support a way for the tracer
to determine if interrupts were enabled or disabled. It also lets those
same archs compile with tracing enabled.

nfsd: fix vm overcommit crash

Junjiro R.  Okajima reported a problem where knfsd crashes if you are
using it to export shmemfs objects and run strict overcommit.  In this
situation the current->mm based modifier to the overcommit goes through a
NULL pointer.

We could simply check for NULL and skip the modifier but we've caught
other real bugs in the past from mm being NULL here - cases where we did
need a valid mm set up (eg the exec bug about a year ago).

To preserve the checks and get the logic we want shuffle the checking

Also fix a current->mm reference in nommu that should use the passed mm

Eric Sandeen [Wed, 29 Oct 2008 21:01:08 +0000 (14:01 -0700)]
ecryptfs: fix memory corruption when storing crypto info in xattrs

When ecryptfs allocates space to write crypto headers into, before copying
it out to file headers or to xattrs, it looks at the value of
crypt_stat->num_header_bytes_at_front to determine how much space it
needs.  This is also used as the file offset to the actual encrypted data,
so for xattr-stored crypto info, the value was zero.

So, we kzalloc'd 0 bytes, and then ran off to write to that memory.
(Which returned as ZERO_SIZE_PTR, so we explode quickly).

The right answer is to always allocate a page to write into; the current
code won't ever write more than that (this is enforced by the
(PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - offset) length in the call to
ecryptfs_generate_key_packet_set).  To be explicit about this, we now send
in a "max" parameter, rather than magically using PAGE_CACHE_SIZE there.

Also, since the pointer we pass down the callchain eventually gets the
virt_to_page() treatment, we should be using a alloc_page variant, not
kzalloc (see also 7fcba054373d5dfc43d26e243a5c9b92069972ee)
