[BRIDGE]: recompute features when adding a new device · 133747e8

由 Olaf Rempel 提交于 11月 23, 2005

We must recompute bridge features everytime the list of underlying 
devices changes, or we might end up with features that are not
supported by all devices (eg. NETIF_F_TSO)
This patch adds the missing recompute when adding a device to the bridge.

[PATCH] powerpc: fix for hugepage areas straddling 4GB boundary · 5e391dc9

由 David Gibson 提交于 11月 23, 2005

Commit 7d24f0b8 fixed bugs in the ppc64 SLB
miss handler with respect to hugepage handling, and in the process tweaked
the semantics of the hugepage address masks in mm_context_t.

Unfortunately, it left out a couple of necessary changes to go with that
change.  First, the in_hugepage_area() macro was not updated to match,
second prepare_hugepage_range() was not updated to correctly handle
hugepages regions which straddled the 4GB point.

The latter appears only to cause process-hangs when attempting to map such
a region, but the former can cause oopses if a get_user_pages() is
triggered at the wrong point.  This patch addresses both bugs.

[PATCH] Fix crash in unregister_console() · e9b15b54

由 Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于 11月 23, 2005

If unregister_console() is inadvertently called while no consoles are
registered, it will crash trying to dereference NULL pointer.  It is
necessary to fix that because register_console() provides no indication
that it actually registered the console passed in.  In fact, it may well
decide not to register it based on various things...

(akpm: It'd be better to make register_console() return something and fix the
callers.  All 106 of them...)

[PATCH] fix do_wait() vs exec() race · 962b564c

由 Oleg Nesterov 提交于 11月 23, 2005

When non-leader thread does exec, de_thread adds old leader to the init's
->children list in EXIT_ZOMBIE state and drops tasklist_lock.

This means that release_task(leader) in de_thread() is racy vs do_wait()
from init task.

I think de_thread() should set old leader's state to EXIT_DEAD instead.

[PATCH] kprobes: Fix return probes on sys_execve · 8bf1101b

由 Jim Keniston 提交于 11月 23, 2005

Fix a bug in kprobes that can cause an Oops or even a crash when a return
probe is installed on one of the following functions: sys_execve,
do_execve, load_*_binary, flush_old_exec, or flush_thread. The fix is to
remove the call to kprobe_flush_task() in flush_thread(). This fix has
been tested on all architectures for which the return-probes feature has
been implemented (i386, x86_64, ppc64, ia64). Please apply.

BACKGROUND

Up to now, we have called kprobe_flush_task() under two situations: when a
task exits, and when it execs. Flushing kretprobe_instances on exit is
correct because (a) do_exit() doesn't return, and (b) one or more
return-probed functions may be active when a task calls do_exit(). Neither
is the case for sys_execve() and its callees.

Initially, the mistaken call to kprobe_flush_task() on exec was harmless
because we put the "real" return address of each active probed function
back in the stack, just to be safe, when we recycled its
kretprobe_instance. When support for ppc64 and ia64 was added, this safety
measure couldn't be employed, and was eventually dropped even for i386 and
x86_64. sys_execve() and its callees were informally blacklisted for
return probes until this fix was developed.
