2011-03-10SUNRPC: Close a race in __rpc_wait_for_completion_task()Trond Myklebust
Although they run as rpciod background tasks, under normal operation (i.e. no SIGKILL), functions like nfs_sillyrename(), nfs4_proc_unlck() and nfs4_do_close() want to be fully synchronous. This means that when we exit, we want all references to the rpc_task to be gone, and we want any dentry references etc. held by that task to be released. For this reason these functions call __rpc_wait_for_completion_task(), followed by rpc_put_task() in the expectation that the latter will be releasing the last reference to the rpc_task, and thus ensuring that the callback_ops->rpc_release() has been called synchronously. This patch fixes a race which exists due to the fact that rpciod calls rpc_complete_task() (in order to wake up the callers of __rpc_wait_for_completion_task()) and then subsequently calls rpc_put_task() without ensuring that these two steps are done atomically. In order to avoid adding new spin locks, the patch uses the existing waitqueue spin lock to order the rpc_task reference count releases between the waiting process and rpciod. The common case where nobody is waiting for completion is optimised for by checking if the RPC_TASK_ASYNC flag is cleared and/or if the rpc_task reference count is 1: in those cases we drop trying to grab the spin lock, and immediately free up the rpc_task. Those few processes that need to put the rpc_task from inside an asynchronous context and that do not care about ordering are given a new helper: rpc_put_task_async().

2011-03-10xen: events: refactor GSI pirq bindings functionsIan Campbell
Following the example set by xen_allocate_pirq_msi and xen_bind_pirq_msi_to_irq: xen_allocate_pirq becomes xen_allocate_pirq_gsi and now only allocates a pirq number and does not bind it. xen_map_pirq_gsi becomes xen_bind_pirq_gsi_to_irq and binds an existing pirq.

2011-03-10xen: events: remove unused public functionsIan Campbell
I was unable to find any user of these functions in either the functionality pending for 2.6.39 or the xen/next-2.6.32 branch of xen.git An exception to this was xen_gsi_from_irq which did appear to be used in xen/next-2.6.32's pciback. However in the 2.6.39 version of pciback xen_pirq_from_irq is, correctly AFAICT, used instead. Only a minority of functions in events.h use "extern" so drop it from those places for consistency.

2011-03-10xen: events: separate MSI PIRQ allocation from PIRQ binding to IRQIan Campbell
Split the binding aspect of xen_allocate_pirq_msi out into a new xen_bind_pirq_to_irq function. In xen_hvm_setup_msi_irq when allocating a pirq write the MSI message to signal the PIRQ as soon as the pirq is obtained. There is no way to free the pirq back so if the subsequent binding to an IRQ fails we want to ensure that we will reuse the PIRQ next time rather than leak it.

2011-03-10block: initial patch for on-stack per-task pluggingJens Axboe
This patch adds support for creating a queuing context outside of the queue itself. This enables us to batch up pieces of IO before grabbing the block device queue lock and submitting them to the IO scheduler. The context is created on the stack of the process and assigned in the task structure, so that we can auto-unplug it if we hit a schedule event. The current queue plugging happens implicitly if IO is submitted to an empty device, yet callers have to remember to unplug that IO when they are going to wait for it. This is an ugly API and has caused bugs in the past. Additionally, it requires hacks in the vm (->sync_page() callback) to handle that logic. By switching to an explicit plugging scheme we make the API a lot nicer and can get rid of the ->sync_page() hack in the vm. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

2011-03-10net: don't allow CAP_NET_ADMIN to load non-netdev kernel modulesVasiliy Kulikov
Since a8f80e8ff94ecba629542d9b4b5f5a8ee3eb565c any process with CAP_NET_ADMIN may load any module from /lib/modules/. This doesn't mean that CAP_NET_ADMIN is a superset of CAP_SYS_MODULE as modules are limited to /lib/modules/**. However, CAP_NET_ADMIN capability shouldn't allow anybody load any module not related to networking. This patch restricts an ability of autoloading modules to netdev modules with explicit aliases. This fixes CVE-2011-1019. Arnd Bergmann suggested to leave untouched the old pre-v2.6.32 behavior of loading netdev modules by name (without any prefix) for processes with CAP_SYS_MODULE to maintain the compatibility with network scripts that use autoloading netdev modules by aliases like "eth0", "wlan0".

2011-03-09RTC: Initialize kernel state from RTCJohn Stultz
Mark Brown pointed out a corner case: that RTC alarms should be allowed to be persistent across reboots if the hardware supported it. The rework of the generic layer to virtualize the RTC alarm virtualized much of the alarm handling, and removed the code used to read the alarm time from the hardware. Mark noted if we want the alarm to be persistent across reboots, we need to re-read the alarm value into the virtualized generic layer at boot up, so that the generic layer properly exposes that value. This patch restores much of the earlier removed rtc_read_alarm code and wires it in so that we set the kernel's alarm value to what we find in the hardware at boot time. NOTE: Not all hardware supports persistent RTC alarm state across system reset. rtc-cmos for example will keep the alarm time, but disables the AIE mode irq. Applications should not expect the RTC alarm to be valid after a system reset. We will preserve what we can, to represent the hardware state at boot, but its not guarenteed. Further, in the future, with multiplexed RTC alarms, the soonest alarm to fire may not be the one set via the /dev/rt ioctls. So an application may set the alarm with RTC_ALM_SET, but after a reset find that RTC_ALM_READ returns an earlier time. Again, we preserve what we can, but applications should not expect the RTC alarm state to persist across a system reset. Big thanks to Mark for pointing out the issue! Thanks also to Marcelo for helping think through the solution.
