A fuzzed fileystem image failed with OMFS when the extent count was
used in a loop without being checked against the max number of extents.
It also provoked a signed division for an array index that was checked
as if unsigned, leading to index by -1.

omfsck will be updated to fix these cases, in the meantime bail out
gracefully.

Testing with a modified fsfuzzer reveals a couple of locations in omfs
where filesystem variables are ultimately used as loop counters with
insufficient sanity checking.  In this case, dir->i_size is used to
compute the number of buckets in the directory hash.  If too large,
readdir will overrun a buffer.

Since it's an invariant that dir->i_size is equal to the sysblock
size, and we already sanity check that, just use that value instead.
This fixes the following oops:

When reviewing a recent patch I noticed a potential trouble spot in the
registration of new SPI devices.  The SPI master driver is told to set
the device up before adding it to the driver model, so that it's always
properly set up when probe() is called.  (This is important, because in
the case of inverted chipselects, this device can make the bus misbehave
until it's properly deselected.  It's got to be set up even if no driver
binds to the device.)

The trouble spot is that it doesn't first verify that no other device
has been added using that chipselect.  If such a device has been added,
its configuration gets trashed.  (Fortunately this has not been a common
error!)

The fix here adds an explicit check, and a mutex to protect the relevant
critical region.

write_cache_pages() uses i_mapping->writeback_index to pick up where it
left off the last time a given inode was found by pdflush or
balance_dirty_pages (or anyone else who sets wbc->range_cyclic)

alloc_inode() should set it to a sane value so that writeback doesn't
start in the middle of a file.  It is somewhat difficult to notice the bug
since write_cache_pages will loop around to the start of the file and the
elevator helps hide the resulting seeks.

For whatever reason, Btrfs hits this often.  Unpatched, untarring 30
copies of the linux kernel in series runs at 47MB/s on a single sata

Currently, all sensors are read when the energy meter is queried via
sysfs.  This introduces a considerable amount of delay and variation in
the sysfs reading, which is not desirable when trying to profile energy
use.  Therefore, read only the energy meters when a sysfs query comes in
for them, and don't cache the results so that we always get the latest
reading.

On older machines, probing for a nonexistent AEM interface returned an
IPMI error; when we saw this, we'd stop probing.  On the x3650 M2 and
(presumably) later, we are returned a value indicating success and a
buffer full of garbage or zeroes.  This causes the probe function to run
in an infinite loop.  To fix this, we add one last check--if the
interface number we're looking for is higher than the number of
interfaces that AEM claims to have, stop probing.

Previously the driver was only using DMI to prevent smbus probing on
non-Abit motherboards.  However, since the manual probing method is
brittle and prone to failure on some Abit motherboards (esp.  the Abit
IP35 Pro) it is better to use DMI to also read the board name and then
decide whether or not to probe the bus.

At the moment, we do not have a list of valid DMI name strings to use
for existing and supported motherboards.  This patch only implements DMI
probing for the IP35 Pro.  For motherboards that can not yet use DMI
probing, a warning will be printed to the kernel log asking those users
to email me their dmidecode output.

The existing manual probing mechanism will be used if CONFIG_DMI is not
enabled, if DMI probing fails (for DMI-unsupported motherboards), or if
DMI probing fails and the "force" option is set (for DMI-supported
motherboards).  Ideally in the longer term this manual probing method
would be removed.

This patch should be safe to apply as it does not change the probing
behaviour for most of the supported motherboards, just the IP35 Pro,
which already has regressions filed against it in 2.6.26.

This is the minimal sequence that jams the allocator:

void *p, *q, *r;
p = alloc_bootmem(PAGE_SIZE);
q = alloc_bootmem(64);
free_bootmem(p, PAGE_SIZE);
p = alloc_bootmem(PAGE_SIZE);
r = alloc_bootmem(64);

after this sequence (assuming that the allocator was empty or page-aligned
before), pointer "q" will be equal to pointer "r".

What's hapenning inside the allocator:
p = alloc_bootmem(PAGE_SIZE);
in allocator: last_end_off == PAGE_SIZE, bitmap contains bits 10000...
q = alloc_bootmem(64);
in allocator: last_end_off == PAGE_SIZE + 64, bitmap contains 11000...
free_bootmem(p, PAGE_SIZE);
in allocator: last_end_off == PAGE_SIZE + 64, bitmap contains 01000...
p = alloc_bootmem(PAGE_SIZE);
in allocator: last_end_off == PAGE_SIZE, bitmap contains 11000...
r = alloc_bootmem(64);

and now:

it finds bit "2", as a place where to allocate (sidx)

it hits the condition

if (bdata->last_end_off && PFN_DOWN(bdata->last_end_off) + 1 == sidx))
start_off = ALIGN(bdata->last_end_off, align);

-you can see that the condition is true, so it assigns start_off =
ALIGN(bdata->last_end_off, align); (that is PAGE_SIZE) and allocates
over already allocated block.

With the patch it tries to continue at the end of previous allocation only
if the previous allocation ended in the middle of the page.

Merge branches 'acpica-release-fixes', 'ec-fix', 'dock', 'irq-bounds', 'thermal-fix', 'wmi' and 'acpi-cleanups' into release-2.6.27

Do not use unsigned int if there is test for negative number...

See drivers/acpi/processor_perflib.c
  static unsigned int ignore_ppc = -1;
...
  if (event == CPUFREQ_START && ignore_ppc <= 0) {
       ignore_ppc = 0;

acpi_penalize_isa_irq() should validate irq before using it to
index the acpi_irq_penalty[] table.

Here's the path I'm concerned about:

    pnpacpi_parse_allocated_irqresource()
    {
	...
	irq = acpi_register_gsi(gsi, triggering, polarity);
	if (irq >= 0)
		pcibios_penalize_isa_irq(irq, 1);

There's no guarantee that acpi_register_gsi() will return an IRQ
within the bounds of acpi_irq_penalty[].

I have not seen a failure I can attribute to this.  However,
ACPI_MAX_IRQS is only 256, and I'm pretty sure ia64 can have
IRQs larger than that.

I think this should go in 2.6.27.
