2010-11-29libertas: fix invalid accessSven Neumann
card->priv must not be accessed after lbs_remove_card() was called as lbs_remove_card() frees card->priv via free_netdev(). For libertas_sdio this is a regression introduced by 23b149c1890f9. The correct fix to the issue described there is simply to remove the assignment. This flag is set at the appropriate time inside lbs_remove_card anyway.

2010-11-29libertas: fix memory corruption in lbs_remove_card()Daniel Drake
"priv" is stored at the end of the wiphy structure, which is freed during the call to lbs_cfg_free(). It must not be touched afterwards.

2010-11-29Staging: batman-adv: ensure that eth_type_trans gets linear memoryMarek Lindner
eth_type_trans tries to pull data with the length of the ethernet header from the skb. We only ensured that enough data for the first ethernet header and the batman header is available in non-paged memory of the skb and not for the ethernet after the batman header. eth_type_trans would fail sometimes with drivers which don't ensure that all there data is perfectly linearised. The failure was noticed through a kernel bug Oops generated by the skb_pull inside eth_type_trans.

2010-11-29Staging: batman-adv: Don't remove interface with spinlock heldSven Eckelmann
We call a lot of the netdevice code when holding if_list_lock which will spin the whole time. This is not necessary because we only want to protect the access to the list to be serialized. An extra queue can be used which hold all interfaces which should be removed and then use that queue without any locks for netdevice cleanup. We create a "scheduling while atomic" Oops when calling different netdevice related functions inside a spinlock protected area on a preemtible kernel.

2010-11-29af_unix: limit recursion levelEric Dumazet
Its easy to eat all kernel memory and trigger NMI watchdog, using an exploit program that queues unix sockets on top of others. lkml ref : http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/11/25/8 This mechanism is used in applications, one choice we have is to have a recursion limit. Other limits might be needed as well (if we queue other types of files), since the passfd mechanism is currently limited by socket receive queue sizes only. Add a recursion_level to unix socket, allowing up to 4 levels. Each time we send an unix socket through sendfd mechanism, we copy its recursion level (plus one) to receiver. This recursion level is cleared when socket receive queue is emptied. Reported-by: Марк Коренберг <socketpair@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In commit 272a527c04 of sound-2.6.git, a new model was added with this machine's PCI SSID. Fortunately, it is now sufficient to use the auto model for BIOS auto-parsing instead of the existing quirk.

2010-11-29powerpc: Add support for new hcall H_BEST_ENERGYVaidyanathan Srinivasan
Create sysfs interface to export data from H_BEST_ENERGY hcall that can be used by administrative tools on supported pseries platforms for energy management optimizations. sys/device/system/cpu/pseries_(de)activate_hint_list and sys/device/system/cpu/cpuN/pseries_(de)activate_hint will provide hints for activation and deactivation of cpus respectively. These hints are abstract number given by the hypervisor based on the extended knowledge the hypervisor has regarding the system topology and resource mappings. The activate and the deactivate sysfs entry is for the two distinct operations that we could do for energy savings. When we have more capacity than required, we could deactivate few core to save energy. The choice of the core to deactivate will be based on /sys/devices/system/cpu/deactivate_hint_list. The comma separated list of cpus (cores) will be the preferred choice. If we have to activate some of the deactivated cores, then /sys/devices/system/cpu/activate_hint_list will be used. The per-cpu file /sys/device/system/cpu/cpuN/pseries_(de)activate_hint further provide more fine grain information by exporting the value of the hint itself.

2010-11-29powerpc: Cleanup APIs for cpu/thread/core mappingsVaidyanathan Srinivasan
These APIs take logical cpu number as input Change cpu_first_thread_in_core() to cpu_first_thread_sibling() Change cpu_last_thread_in_core() to cpu_last_thread_sibling() These APIs convert core number (index) to logical cpu/thread numbers Add cpu_first_thread_of_core(int core) Changed cpu_thread_to_core() to cpu_core_index_of_thread(int cpu) The goal is to make 'threads_per_core' accessible to the pseries_energy module. Instead of making an API to read threads_per_core, this is a higher level wrapper function to convert from logical cpu number to core number. The current APIs cpu_first_thread_in_core() and cpu_last_thread_in_core() returns logical CPU number while cpu_thread_to_core() returns core number or index which is not a logical CPU number. The new APIs are now clearly named to distinguish 'core number' versus first and last 'logical cpu number' in that core. The new APIs cpu_{first,last}_thread_sibling() work on logical cpu numbers. While cpu_first_thread_of_core() and cpu_core_index_of_thread() work on core index. Example usage: (4 threads per core system) cpu_first_thread_sibling(5) = 4 cpu_last_thread_sibling(5) = 7 cpu_core_index_of_thread(5) = 1 cpu_first_thread_of_core(1) = 4 cpu_core_index_of_thread() is used in cpu_to_drc_index() in the module and cpu_first_thread_of_core() is used in drc_index_to_cpu() in the module.
