[IPV6]: ipv6_fl_socklist is inadvertently shared.

The ipv6_fl_socklist from listening socket is inadvertently shared
with new socket created for connection.  This leads to a variety of
interesting, but fatal, bugs. For example, removing one of the
sockets may lead to the other socket's encountering a page fault
when the now freed list is referenced.

The fix is to not share the flow label list with the new socket.

previously-reported deadlocks have been fixed, and this exclusion is

[PATCH] pci: Repair pci_save/restore_state so we can restore one save many times.

Because we do not reserve space for the pci-x and pci-e state in struct
pci dev we need to dynamically allocate it.  However because we need
to support restore being called multiple times after a single save
it is never safe to free the buffers we have allocated to hold the
state.

So this patch modifies the save routines to first check to see
if we have already allocated a state buffer before allocating
a new one.  Then the restore routines are modified to not free
the state after restoring it.  Simple and it fixes some subtle
error path handling bugs, that are hard to test for.

Eric W. Biederman [Thu, 8 Mar 2007 20:04:57 +0000 (13:04 -0700)]
[PATCH] msi: Safer state caching.

There are two ways pci_save_state and pci_restore_state are used.  As
helper functions during suspend/resume, and as helper functions around
a hardware reset event.  When used as helper functions around a hardware
reset event there is no reason to believe the calls will be paired, nor
is there a good reason to believe that if we restore the msi state from
before the reset that it will match the current msi state.  Since arch
code may change the msi message without going through the driver, drivers
currently do not have enough information to even know when to call
pci_save_state to ensure they will have msi state in sync with the other
kernel irq reception data structures.

It turns out the solution is straight forward, cache the state in the
existing msi data structures (not the magic pci saved things) and
have the msi code update the cached state each time we write to the hardware.
This means we never need to read the hardware to figure out what the hardware
state should be.

By modifying the caching in this manner we get to remove our save_state
routines and only need to provide restore_state routines.

The only fields that were at all tricky to regenerate were the msi and msi-x
control registers and the way we regenerate them currently is a bit dependent
upon assumptions on how we use the allow msi registers to be configured and used
making the code a little bit brittle.  If we ever change what cases we allow
or how we configure the msi bits we can address the fragility then.

Jiri Kosina [Sat, 10 Mar 2007 21:45:45 +0000 (22:45 +0100)]
HID: zeroing of bytes in output fields is bogus

This patch removes bogus zeroing of unused bits in output reports,
introduced in Simon's patch in commit d4ae650a.
According to the specification, any sane device should not care
about values of unused bits.

What is worse, the zeroing is done in a way which is broken and
might clear certain bits in output reports which are actually
_used_ - a device that has multiple fields with one value of
the size 1 bit each might serve as an example of why this is
bogus - the second call of hid_output_report() would clear the
first bit of report, which has already been set up previously.

This patch will break LEDs on SpaceNavigator, because this device
is broken and takes into account the bits which it shouldn't touch.
The quirk for this particular device will be provided in a separate
patch.

HID: allocate hid_parser in a proper way

hid_parser is non-trivially large structure, so it should be allocated
using vmalloc() to avoid unsuccessful allocations when memory fragmentation
is too high.
This structue has a very short life, it's destroyed as soon as the report
descriptor has been completely parsed.

This should be considered a temporary solution, until the hid_parser is
rewritten to consume less memory during report descriptor parsing.

Russell King points out that it's obviously bogus, and I have to agree.
Not only does "irq" not even exist in that scope, but we obviously need
to free the irq that we actually requested, and that's IRQ_USB.

Fixes correctly the race by using *_ti_thread_flag.

Race :

parent process executing :
sys_ptrace()

     ptrace_disable(child);

          process)
 (put_task_struct(child))
 (unlock_kernel())

And at the same time, in the child process :

 do_execve()
   search_binary_handler()
