2009-03-16acer-wmi: double free in acer_rfkill_exit()Dan Carpenter
This is acer_rfkill_exit() from drivers/platform/x86/acer-wmi.c. The code frees wireless_rfkill->data again instead of bluetooth_rfkill->data. This was found using a code checker (http://repo.or.cz/w/smatch.git/).

2009-03-14x86: allow extend_brk users to reserve brk spaceJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: new interface; remove hard-coded limit Add RESERVE_BRK(name, size) macro to reserve space in the brk area. This should be a conservative (ie, larger) estimate of how much space might possibly be required from the brk area. Any unused space will be freed, so there's no real downside on making the reservation too large (within limits). The name should be unique within a given file, and somewhat descriptive. The C definition of RESERVE_BRK() ends up being more complex than one would expect to work around a cluster of gcc infelicities: The first attempt was to simply try putting __section(.brk_reservation) on a variable. This doesn't work because it ends up making it a @progbits section, which gets actual space allocated in the vmlinux executable. The second attempt was to emit the space into a section using asm, but gcc doesn't allow arguments to be passed to file-level asm() statements, making it hard to pass in the size. The final attempt is to wrap the asm() in a function to allow it to have arguments, and put the function itself into the .discard section, which vmlinux*.lds drops entirely from the emitted vmlinux.

Impact: use new interface instead of previous ad hoc implementation Rather than having special purpose init_pg_table_start/end variables to delimit the kernel pagetable built by head_32.S, just use the brk mechanism to extend the bss for the new pagetable. This patch removes init_pg_table_start/end and pg0, defines __brk_base (which is page-aligned and immediately follows _end), initializes the brk region to start there, and uses it for the 32-bit pagetable.

2009-03-14x86: add brk allocation for very, very early allocationsJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: new interface Add a brk()-like allocator which effectively extends the bss in order to allow very early code to do dynamic allocations. This is better than using statically allocated arrays for data in subsystems which may never get used. The space for brk allocations is in the bss ELF segment, so that the space is mapped properly by the code which maps the kernel, and so that bootloaders keep the space free rather than putting a ramdisk or something into it. The bss itself, delimited by __bss_stop, ends before the brk area (__brk_base to __brk_limit). The kernel text, data and bss is reserved up to __bss_stop. Any brk-allocated data is reserved separately just before the kernel pagetable is built, as that code allocates from unreserved spaces in the e820 map, potentially allocating from any unused brk memory. Ultimately any unused memory in the brk area is used in the general kernel memory pool. Initially the brk space is set to 1MB, which is probably much larger than any user needs (the largest current user is i386 head_32.S's code to build the pagetables to map the kernel, which can get fairly large with a big kernel image and no PSE support). So long as the system has sufficient memory for the bootloader to reserve the kernel+1MB brk, there are no bad effects resulting from an over-large brk.

2009-03-14x86: make section delimiter symbols part of their sectionJeremy Fitzhardinge
Impact: cleanup Move the symbols delimiting a section part of the section (section relative) rather than absolute. This avoids any unexpected gaps between the section-start symbol and the first data in the section, which could be caused by implicit alignment of the section data. It also makes the general form of vmlinux_64.lds.S consistent with vmlinux_32.lds.S.

2009-03-14eCryptfs: don't encrypt file key with filename keyTyler Hicks
eCryptfs has file encryption keys (FEK), file encryption key encryption keys (FEKEK), and filename encryption keys (FNEK). The per-file FEK is encrypted with one or more FEKEKs and stored in the header of the encrypted file. I noticed that the FEK is also being encrypted by the FNEK. This is a problem if a user wants to use a different FNEK than their FEKEK, as their file contents will still be accessible with the FNEK. This is a minimalistic patch which prevents the FNEKs signatures from being copied to the inode signatures list. Ultimately, it keeps the FEK from being encrypted with a FNEK.

2009-03-14nommu: ramfs: don't leak pages when adding to page cache failsJohannes Weiner

If the page cache adding fails, make sure that the error path also moves the pagevec contents which might still contain up to PAGEVEC_SIZE successfully added pages, of which we would leak references otherwise.

2009-03-14nommu: ramfs: pages allocated to an inode's pagecache may get wrongly discardedEnrik Berkhan
The pages attached to a ramfs inode's pagecache by truncation from nothing - as done by SYSV SHM for example - may get discarded under memory pressure. The problem is that the pages are not marked dirty. Anything that creates data in an MMU-based ramfs will cause the pages holding that data will cause the set_page_dirty() aop to be called. For the NOMMU-based mmap, set_page_dirty() may be called by write(), but it won't be called by page-writing faults on writable mmaps, and it isn't called by ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping() when a file is being truncated from nothing to allocate a contiguous run. The solution is to mark the pages dirty at the point of allocation by the truncation code.
