match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer. There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options(). I believe it currently can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious. The source string is a substing of the mount options. The kernel silently truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero. See compat_sys_mount() and do_mount(). The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX. We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE. PATH_MAX is 4096. As far as I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096. Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct. It doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

Prior to 2.6.26 fuse only supported single page write requests. In theory all fuse filesystem should be able support bigger than 4k writes, as there's nothing in the API to prevent it. Unfortunately there's a known case in NTFS-3G where big writes cause filesystem corruption. There could also be other filesystems, where the lack of testing with big write requests would result in bugs. To prevent such problems on a kernel upgrade, disable big writes by default, but let filesystems set a flag to turn it on.

When mm destruction happens, we should pass mm_update_next_owner() the old mm. But unfortunately new mm is passed in exec_mmap().

Fix an oops with a corrupted hfs+ image. See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10548 for details. Problem is that we call hfs_btree_open() from hfsplus_fill_super() to set HFSPLUS_SB(sb).[ext_tree|cat_tree] Both trees are still NULL at this moment. If hfs_btree_open() fails for any reason it calls iput() on the page, which gets to hfsplus_releasepage() which tries to access HFSPLUS_SB(sb).* which is still NULL and oopses while dereferencing it.

There is currently no way to query the bounding set of another task. As there appears to be no security reason not to, and as Michael Kerrisk points out the following valid reasons to do so exist: * consistency (I can see all of the other per-thread/process sets in /proc/.../status) * debugging -- I could imagine that it would make the job of debugging an application that uses capabilities a little simpler. this patch adds the bounding set to /proc/self/status right after the effective set.

Sometimes, vfs_quota_off() is called on a partially set up super block (for example when fill_super() fails for some reason). In such cases we cannot call ->sync_fs() because it can Oops because of not properly filled in super block. So in case we find there's not quota to turn off, we just skip everything and return which fixes the above problem.

It acts exactly like a regular 'cond_resched()', but will not get optimized away when CONFIG_PREEMPT is set. Normal kernel code is already preemptable in the presense of CONFIG_PREEMPT, so cond_resched() is optimized away (see commit 02b67cc3 "sched: do not do cond_resched() when CONFIG_PREEMPT"). But when wanting to conditionally reschedule while holding a lock, you need to use "cond_sched_lock(lock)", and the new function is the BKL equivalent of that. Also make fs/locks.c use it.

cifs_demultiplex_thread can exit under several conditions: 1) if it's signaled 2) if there's a problem with session setup 3) if kthread_stop is called on it The first two are problems. If kthread_stop is called on the thread, there is no guarantee that it will still be up. We need to have the thread stay up until kthread_stop is called on it. One option would be to not even try to tear things down until after kthread_stop is called. However, in the case where there is a problem setting up the session, there's no real reason to try continuing the loop. This patch allows the thread to clean up and prepare for exit under all three conditions, but it has the thread go to sleep until kthread_stop is called. This allows us to simplify the shutdown code somewhat since we can be reasonably sure that the thread won't exit after being signaled but before kthread_stop is called. It also removes the places where the thread itself set the tsk variable since it appeared that it could have a potential race where the thread might never be shut down.

When creating a directory on a CIFS share without POSIX extensions, and the given mode has no write bits set, set the ATTR_READONLY bit. When creating a file, set ATTR_READONLY if the create mode has no write bits set and we're not using unix extensions. There are some comments about this being problematic due to the VFS splitting creates into 2 parts. I'm not sure what that's actually talking about, but I'm assuming that it has something to do with how mknod is implemented. In the simple case where we have no unix extensions and we're just creating a regular file, there's no reason we can't set ATTR_READONLY.

Was a holdover from the old kernel_thread based cifsd code. We needed to know that the thread had set the task variable before proceeding. Now that kthread_run returns the new task, this doesn't appear to be needed anymore. As best I can tell, this sleep was intended to try to prevent cifs_umount from freeing the cifsSesInfo struct before cifsd had exited. Now that cifsd is using the kthread API, we know that when kthread_stop returns that cifsd has exited, so I don't think this is needed any longer.

fcntl_setlk()/close() race prevention has a subtle hole - we need to make sure that if we *do* have an fcntl/close race on SMP box, the access to descriptor table and inode->i_flock won't get reordered. As it is, we get STORE inode->i_flock, LOAD descriptor table entry vs. STORE descriptor table entry, LOAD inode->i_flock with not a single lock in common on both sides. We do have BKL around the first STORE, but check in locks_remove_posix() is outside of BKL and for a good reason - we don't want BKL on common path of close(2). Solution is to hold ->file_lock around fcheck() in there; that orders us wrt removal from descriptor table that preceded locks_remove_posix() on close path and we either come first (in which case eviction will be handled by the close side) or we'll see the effect of close and do eviction ourselves. Note that even though it's read-only access, we do need ->file_lock here - rcu_read_lock() won't be enough to order the things. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

This replaces the duplicated arch-specific versions of "sys_pipe()" with one unified implementation. This removes almost 250 lines of duplicated code. It's marked __weak, so that *if* an architecture wants to override the default implementation it can do so by simply having its own replacement version, since many architectures use alternate calling conventions for the 'pipe()' system call for legacy reasons (ie traditional UNIX implementations often return the two file descriptors in registers) I still haven't changed the cris version even though Linus says the BKL isn't needed.
