Original problem: in some circumstances seq_file interface can present infinite proc file to the following script when normally said proc file is finite: while read line; do [do something with $line] done </proc/$FILE bash, to implement such loop does essentially read(0, buf, 128); [find \n] lseek(0, -difference, SEEK_CUR); Consider, proc file prints list of objects each of them consists of many lines, each line is shorter than 128 bytes. Two objects in list, with ->index'es being 0 and 1. Current one is 1, as bash prints second object line by line. Imagine first object being removed right before lseek(). traverse() will be called, because there is negative offset. traverse() will reset ->index to 0 (!). traverse() will call ->next() and get NULL in any usual iterate-over-list code using list_for_each_entry_continue() and such. There is one object in list now after all... traverse() will return 0, lseek() will update file position and pretend everything is OK. So, what we have now: ->f_pos points to place where second object will be printed, but ->index is 0. seq_read() instead of returning EOF, will start printing first line of first object every time it's called, until enough objects are added to ->f_pos return in bounds. Fix is to update ->index only after we're sure we saw enough objects down the road.

由 Haavard Skinnemoen 提交于
The RXBRK field in the AT91/AT32 USART status register has the following definition according to e.g. the AT32AP7000 data sheet: RXBRK: Break Received/End of Break 0: No Break received or End of Break detected since the last RSTSTA. 1: Break Received or End of Break detected since the last RSTSTA. Thus, for each break, the USART sets the RXBRK bit twice. This patch modifies the driver to report the break event to the serial core only once by keeping track of whether a break condition is currently active. The break_active flag is reset as soon as a character is received, so even if we miss the start-of-break interrupt this should do the right thing.

Some buses (e.g. USB and MMC) do their scanning of devices in the background, causing a race between them and prepare_namespace(). In order to be able to use these buses without an initrd, we now wait for the device specified in root= to actually show up. If the device never shows up than we will hang in an infinite loop. In order to not mess with setups that reboot on panic, the feature must be turned on via the command line option "rootwait".

Part two in the O_CLOEXEC saga: adding support for file descriptors received through Unix domain sockets. The patch is once again pretty minimal, it introduces a new flag for recvmsg and passes it just like the existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT flag. I think this bit is not used otherwise but the networking people will know better. This new flag is not recognized by recvfrom and recv. These functions cannot be used for that purpose and the asymmetry this introduces is not worse than the already existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT situations. The patch must be applied on the patch which introduced O_CLOEXEC. It has to remove static from the new get_unused_fd_flags function but since scm.c cannot live in a module the function still hasn't to be exported. Here's a test program to make sure the code works.

The problem is as follows: in multi-threaded code (or more correctly: all code using clone() with CLONE_FILES) we have a race when exec'ing. thread #1 thread #2 fd=open() fork + exec fcntl(fd,F_SETFD,FD_CLOEXEC) In some applications this can happen frequently. Take a web browser. One thread opens a file and another thread starts, say, an external PDF viewer. The result can even be a security issue if that open file descriptor refers to a sensitive file and the external program can somehow be tricked into using that descriptor. Just adding O_CLOEXEC support to open() doesn't solve the whole set of problems. There are other ways to create file descriptors (socket, epoll_create, Unix domain socket transfer, etc). These can and should be addressed separately though. open() is such an easy case that it makes not much sense putting the fix off. The test program: #include <errno.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #ifndef O_CLOEXEC # define O_CLOEXEC 02000000 #endif int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { int fd; if (argc > 1) { fd = atol (argv[1]); printf ("child: fd = %d\n", fd); if (fcntl (fd, F_GETFD) == 0 || errno != EBADF) { puts ("file descriptor valid in child"); return 1; } return 0; } fd = open ("/proc/self/exe", O_RDONLY | O_CLOEXEC); printf ("in parent: new fd = %d\n", fd); char buf[20]; snprintf (buf, sizeof (buf), "%d", fd); execl ("/proc/self/exe", argv[0], buf, NULL); puts ("execl failed"); return 1; } [kyle@parisc-linux.org: parisc fix] Signed-off-by: NUlrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Acked-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk-manpages@gmx.net> Cc: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net> Signed-off-by: NKyle McMartin <kyle@parisc-linux.org> Acked-by: NDavid S.

Allow printk_time to be enabled or disabled at boot time. Previously it could be enabled only, but not disabled. Change printk_time from an int to a bool since that's what it is. Make its logical (exposed) name just be "time" (was "printk_time"). Note: Changes kernel boot option syntax from "time" to "printk.time=value". Since printk_time is declared as a module_param, it can also be changed at run-time by modifying /sys/module/printk/parameters/time to a value of 1/Y/y to enabled it or 0/N/n to disable it. Since printk_time is declared as a module_param, its value can also be set at boot-time by using linux printk.time=<bool> If the "time" boot option is used, print a message that it is deprecated and will be removed.

Some users have been having problems with utilities like cp or dd dumping core when they try to copy a file that's too large for the destination filesystem (typically, > 4gb). Apparently, some defunct standards required SIGXFSZ to be sent in such circumstances, but SUS only requires/allows it for when a written file exceeds the process's resource limits. I'd like to limit SIGXFSZs to the bare minimum required by SUS.
