      cpumask: alloc zeroed cpumask for static cpumask_var_ts · eaa95840
      由 Yinghai Lu 提交于 
      These are defined as static cpumask_var_t so if MAXSMP is not used,
they are cleared already.  Avoid surprises when MAXSMP is enabled.

      r8169: fix crash when large packets are received · fdd7b4c3
      由 Eric Dumazet 提交于 
      Michael Tokarev reported receiving a large packet could crash
a machine with RTL8169 NIC.
( original thread at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/8/192 )

Problem is this driver tells that NIC frames up to 16383 bytes
can be received but provides skb to rx ring allocated with
smaller sizes (1536 bytes in case standard 1500 bytes MTU is used)

When a frame larger than what was allocated by driver is received,
dma transfert can occurs past the end of buffer and corrupt
kernel memory.

Fix is to tell to NIC what is the maximum size a frame can be.

This bug is very old, (before git introduction, linux-2.6.10), and 
should be backported to stable versions.

      md/raid5: fix bug in reshape code when chunk_size decreases. · 0e6e0271
      由 NeilBrown 提交于 
      Now that we support changing the chunksize, we calculate
"reshape_sectors" to be the max of number of sectors in old
and new chunk size.
However there is one please where we still use 'chunksize'
rather than 'reshape_sectors'.
This causes a reshape that reduces the size of chunks to freeze.

      md/raid5 - avoid deadlocks in get_active_stripe during reshape · a8c906ca
      由 NeilBrown 提交于 
      md has functionality to 'quiesce' and array so that all pending
IO completed and no new IO starts.  This is used to achieve a
stable state before making internal changes.

Currently this quiescing applies equally to normal IO, resync
IO, and reshape IO.
However there is a problem with applying it to reshape IO.
Reshape can have multiple 'stripe_heads' that must be active together.
If the quiesce come between allocating the first and the last of
such a collection, then we deadlock, as the last will not be allocated
until the quiesce is lifted, the quiesce will not be lifted until the
first (which has been allocated) gets used, and that first cannot be
used until the last is allocated.

It is not necessary to inhibit reshape IO when a quiesce is
requested.  Those places in the code that require a full quiesce will
ensure the reshape thread is not running at all.

So allow reshape requests to get access to new stripe_heads without
being blocked by a 'quiesce'.

This only affects in-place reshapes (i.e. where the array does not
grow or shrink) and these are only newly supported.  So this patch is
not needed in earlier kernels.

      md/raid5: use conf->raid_disks in preference to mddev->raid_disk · f001a70c
      由 NeilBrown 提交于 
      mddev->raid_disks can be changed and any time by a request from
user-space.  It is a suggestion as to what number of raid_disks is
desired.

conf->raid_disks can only be changed by the raid5 module with suitable
locks in place.  It is a statement as to the current number of
raid_disks.

There are two places where the latter should be used, but the former
is used.  This can lead to a crash when reshaping an array.

This patch changes to mddev-> to conf->

      ivtv: Fix PCI DMA direction · e9e10124
      由 Alan Cox 提交于 
      The ivtv stream buffers may be for receive or for send but the attached
sg handle is always destined cpu->device.  We flush it correctly but the
allocation is wrongly done with the same type as the buffers.

See bug: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13385

(Note this doesn't close the bug - it fixes the ivtv part and in turn
the logging next shows up some rather alarming DMA sg list warnings in
libata)

      drivers/char/mem.c: avoid OOM lockup during large reads from /dev/zero · 730c586a
      由 Salman Qazi 提交于 
      While running 20 parallel instances of dd as follows:

  #!/bin/bash
  for i in `seq 1 20`; do
           dd if=/dev/zero of=/export/hda3/dd_$i bs=1073741824 count=1 &
  done
  wait

on a 16G machine, we noticed that rather than just killing the processes,
the entire kernel went down.  Stracing dd reveals that it first does an
mmap2, which makes 1GB worth of zero page mappings.  Then it performs a
read on those pages from /dev/zero, and finally it performs a write.

The machine died during the reads.  Looking at the code, it was noticed
that /dev/zero's read operation had been changed by
557ed1fa ("remove ZERO_PAGE") from giving
zero page mappings to actually zeroing the page.

The zeroing of the pages causes physical pages to be allocated to the
process.  But, when the process exhausts all the memory that it can, the
kernel cannot kill it, as it is still in the kernel mode allocating more
memory.  Consequently, the kernel eventually crashes.

To fix this, I propose that when a fatal signal is pending during
/dev/zero read operation, we simply return and let the user process die.
