PCI: Reduce Ricoh 0xe822 SD card reader base clock frequency to 50MHz

2013-01-11T17:03:49+00:00

commit 812089e01b9f65f90fc8fc670d8cce72a0e01fbb upstream.

Otherwise it fails like this on cards like the Transcend 16GB SDHC card:

    mmc0: new SDHC card at address b368
    mmcblk0: mmc0:b368 SDC   15.0 GiB
    mmcblk0: error -110 sending status command, retrying
    mmcblk0: error -84 transferring data, sector 0, nr 8, cmd response 0x900, card status 0xb0

Tested on my Lenovo x200 laptop.

tcp: implement RFC 5961 4.2

2013-01-11T17:03:48+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0c24604b68fc7810d429d6c3657b6f148270e528 ]

Implement the RFC 5691 mitigation against Blind
Reset attack using SYN bit.

Section 4.2 of RFC 5961 advises to send a Challenge ACK and drop
incoming packet, instead of resetting the session.

Add a new SNMP counter to count number of challenge acks sent
in response to SYN packets.
(netstat -s | grep TCPSYNChallenge)

Remove obsolete TCPAbortOnSyn, since we no longer abort a TCP session
because of a SYN flag.

tcp: implement RFC 5961 3.2

2013-01-11T17:03:48+00:00

[ Upstream commit 282f23c6ee343126156dd41218b22ece96d747e3 ]

Implement the RFC 5691 mitigation against Blind
Reset attack using RST bit.

Idea is to validate incoming RST sequence,
to match RCV.NXT value, instead of previouly accepted
window : (RCV.NXT <= SEG.SEQ < RCV.NXT+RCV.WND)

If sequence is in window but not an exact match, send
a "challenge ACK", so that the other part can resend an
RST with the appropriate sequence.

Add a new sysctl, tcp_challenge_ack_limit, to limit
number of challenge ACK sent per second.

Add a new SNMP counter to count number of challenge acks sent.
(netstat -s | grep TCPChallengeACK)

ftrace: Do not function trace inlined functions

2013-01-11T17:03:47+00:00

commit 45959ee7aa645815a5ce303a0ea1e48a21e67c6a upstream.

When gcc inlines a function, it does not mark it with the mcount
prologue, which in turn means that inlined functions are not traced
by the function tracer. But if CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is set, then
gcc is allowed not to inline a function that is marked inline.

Depending on the options and the compiler, a function may or may
not be traced by the function tracer, depending on whether gcc
decides to inline a function or not. This has caused several
problems in the pass becaues gcc is not always consistent with
what it decides to inline between different gcc versions.

Some places should not be traced (like paravirt native_* functions)
and these are mostly marked as inline. When gcc decides not to
inline the function, and if that function should not be traced, then
the ftrace function tracer will suddenly break when it use to work
fine. This becomes even harder to debug when different versions of
gcc will not inline that function, making the same kernel and config
work for some gcc versions and not work for others.

By making all functions marked inline to not be traced will remove
the ambiguity that gcc adds when it comes to tracing functions marked
inline. All gcc versions will be consistent with what functions are
traced and having volatile working code will be removed.

Note, only the inline macro when CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is set needs
to have notrace added, as the attribute __always_inline will force
the function to be inlined and then not traced.

mm: Fix PageHead when !CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDED

2013-01-11T17:03:36+00:00

commit ad4b3fb7ff9940bcdb1e4cd62bd189d10fa636ba upstream.

Unfortunately with !CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDED, (!PageHead) is false, and
(PageHead) is true, for tail pages.  If this is indeed the intended
behavior, which I doubt because it breaks cache cleaning on some ARM
systems, then the nomenclature is highly problematic.

This patch makes sure PageHead is only true for head pages and PageTail
is only true for tail pages, and neither is true for non-compound pages.

[ This buglet seems ancient - seems to have been introduced back in Apr
  2008 in commit 6a1e7f777f61: "pageflags: convert to the use of new
  macros".  And the reason nobody noticed is because the PageHead()
  tests are almost all about just sanity-checking, and only used on
  pages that are actual page heads.  The fact that the old code returned
  true for tail pages too was thus not really noticeable.   - Linus ]

exec: do not leave bprm->interp on stack

2013-01-11T17:03:36+00:00

commit b66c5984017533316fd1951770302649baf1aa33 upstream.

If a series of scripts are executed, each triggering module loading via
unprintable bytes in the script header, kernel stack contents can leak
into the command line.

Normally execution of binfmt_script and binfmt_misc happens recursively.
However, when modules are enabled, and unprintable bytes exist in the
bprm->buf, execution will restart after attempting to load matching
binfmt modules.  Unfortunately, the logic in binfmt_script and
binfmt_misc does not expect to get restarted.  They leave bprm->interp
pointing to their local stack.  This means on restart bprm->interp is
left pointing into unused stack memory which can then be copied into the
userspace argv areas.

After additional study, it seems that both recursion and restart remains
the desirable way to handle exec with scripts, misc, and modules.  As
such, we need to protect the changes to interp.

This changes the logic to require allocation for any changes to the
bprm->interp.  To avoid adding a new kmalloc to every exec, the default
value is left as-is.  Only when passing through binfmt_script or
binfmt_misc does an allocation take place.

tmpfs: fix shared mempolicy leak

2012-12-17T18:49:03+00:00

commit 18a2f371f5edf41810f6469cb9be39931ef9deb9 upstream.

This fixes a regression in 3.7-rc, which has since gone into stable.

Commit 00442ad04a5e ("mempolicy: fix a memory corruption by refcount
imbalance in alloc_pages_vma()") changed get_vma_policy() to raise the
refcount on a shmem shared mempolicy; whereas shmem_alloc_page() went
on expecting alloc_page_vma() to drop the refcount it had acquired.
This deserves a rework: but for now fix the leak in shmem_alloc_page().

Hugh: shmem_swapin() did not need a fix, but surely it's clearer to use
the same refcounting there as in shmem_alloc_page(), delete its onstack
mempolicy, and the strange mpol_cond_copy() and __mpol_cond_copy() -
those were invented to let swapin_readahead() make an unknown number of
calls to alloc_pages_vma() with one mempolicy; but since 00442ad04a5e,
alloc_pages_vma() has kept refcount in balance, so now no problem.

PCI : ability to relocate assigned pci-resources

2012-11-26T19:34:57+00:00

commit 2bbc6942273b5b3097bd265d82227bdd84b351b2 upstream.

Currently pci-bridges are allocated enough resources to satisfy their immediate
requirements.  Any additional resource-requests fail if additional free space,
contiguous to the one already allocated, is not available. This behavior is not
reasonable since sufficient contiguous resources, that can satisfy the request,
are available at a different location.

This patch provides the ability to expand and relocate a allocated resource.

			upstream. All the pci driver changes are in here.

mempolicy: fix a race in shared_policy_replace()

2012-10-12T20:28:14+00:00

commit b22d127a39ddd10d93deee3d96e643657ad53a49 upstream.

shared_policy_replace() use of sp_alloc() is unsafe.  1) sp_node cannot
be dereferenced if sp->lock is not held and 2) another thread can modify
sp_node between spin_unlock for allocating a new sp node and next
spin_lock.  The bug was introduced before 2.6.12-rc2.

Kosaki's original patch for this problem was to allocate an sp node and
policy within shared_policy_replace and initialise it when the lock is
reacquired.  I was not keen on this approach because it partially
duplicates sp_alloc().  As the paths were sp->lock is taken are not that
performance critical this patch converts sp->lock to sp->mutex so it can
sleep when calling sp_alloc().
