| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A bug in libsensors <= 2.10.6 is exposed when this new hwmon I/F is enabled. Create CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=n until some time after libsensors 2.10.7 ships so those users can run the latest kernel. libsensors 3.x is already fixed -- those users can use CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=y now.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some cases it could happen that some block passed test in udf_check_anchor_block() even though udf_read_tagged() refused to read it later (e.g. because checksum was not correct). This patch makes udf_check_anchor_block() use udf_read_tagged() so that the checking is stricter.

The result is that the filename computed is not always consisent, and the file may never have had that name. (This is unlikely, but still possible.) Fix this by grabbing the vfsmount_lock for the whole duration of __d_path().

The important piece here is "with write access to the file", and this matters for futimens(), which deals with an argument that is a file descriptor referring to the file whose timestamps are being updated, The standard is saying that the "writability" check is based on the file permissions, not the access mode with which the file is opened. (This behavior is consistent with the semantics of FreeBSD's futimes().) However, Linux is currently doing the latter -- futimens(fd, times) is a library function implemented as utimensat(fd, NULL, times, 0) and within the utimensat() implementation we have the code: f = fget(dfd); // dfd is 'fd' ... if (f) { if (!(f->f_mode & FMODE_WRITE)) goto mnt_drop_write_and_out; The check should instead be based on the file permissions. Thanks to Miklos for pointing out how to do this check. Miklos also pointed out a simplification that could be made to my first version of this patch, since the checks for the pathname and file descriptor cases can now be conflated.

If this condition is violated, then the error EPERM should result. However, the current implementation does not generate EPERM if one tv_nsec field is UTIME_NOW while the other is UTIME_OMIT. It should give this error for that case. This patch: a) Repairs that problem. b) Removes the now unneeded nsec_special() helper function. c) Adds some comments to explain the checks that are being performed. Thanks to Miklos, who provided comments on the previous iteration of this patch. As a result, this version is a little simpler and and its logic is better structured. Miklos suggested an alternative idea, migrating the is_owner_or_cap() checks into fs/attr.c:inode_change_ok() via the use of an ATTR_OWNER_CHECK flag. Maybe we could do that later, but for now I've gone with this version, which is IMO simpler, and can be more easily read as being correct.

| * | | | [patch for 2.6.26 1/4] vfs: utimensat(): ignore tv_sec if tv_nsec == ↵Michael Kerrisk2008-06-231-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UTIME_OMIT or UTIME_NOW The POSIX.1 draft spec for utimensat() says that if a times[n].tv_nsec field is UTIME_OMIT or UTIME_NOW, then the value in the corresponding tv_sec field is ignored. See the last sentence of this para, from the spec: If the tv_nsec field of a timespec structure has the special value UTIME_NOW, the file's relevant timestamp shall be set to the greatest value supported by the file system that is not greater than the current time. If the tv_nsec field has the special value UTIME_OMIT, the file's relevant timestamp shall not be changed. In either case, the tv_sec field shall be ignored. However the current Linux implementation requires the tv_sec value to be zero (or the EINVAL error results). This requirement should be removed.

| * | | | [patch for 2.6.26 2/4] vfs: utimensat(): be consistent with utime() for ↵Michael Kerrisk2008-06-231-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | immutable and append-only files This patch fixes utimensat() to make its behavior consistent with that of utime()/utimes() when dealing with files marked immutable and append-only. The current utimensat() implementation also returns EPERM if 'times' is non-NULL and the tv_nsec fields are both UTIME_NOW. For consistency, the (times != NULL && times[0].tv_nsec == UTIME_NOW && times[1].tv_nsec == UTIME_NOW) case should be treated like the traditional utimes() case where 'times' is NULL. That is, the call should succeed for a file marked append-only and should give the error EACCES if the file is marked as immutable. The simple way to do this is to set 'times' to NULL if (times[0].tv_nsec == UTIME_NOW && times[1].tv_nsec == UTIME_NOW). This is also the natural approach, since POSIX.1 semantics consider the times == {{x, UTIME_NOW}, {y, UTIME_NOW}} to be exactly equivalent to the case for times == NULL. (Thanks to Miklos for pointing this out.) Patch 3 in this series relies on the simplification provided by this patch.

This patch changes the computation for zero_metapath_length(), which it renames to metapath_branch_start(). When you are extending the metadata tree, The indirect blocks that point to the new data block must either diverge from the existing tree either at the inode, or at the first indirect block. They can diverge at the first indirect block because the inode has room for 483 pointers while the indirect blocks have room for 509 pointers, so when the tree is grown, there is some free space in the first indirect block. What metapath_branch_start() now computes is the height where the first indirect block for the new data block is located. It can either be 1 (if the indirect block diverges from the inode) or 2 (if it diverges from the first indirect block).

If we're unlucky enough to have the two at the same time, host msrs are corrupted and the machine goes kaput on the next syscall. Most easily triggered by Windows Server 2008, as it does a lot of msr switching during bootup. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

It currently uses a first match algorithm, stopping when it finds the first redirection table entry containing the vector. That fails however if the guest changes the irq to a different line, leaving the old redirection table entry in place (though masked). Result is interrupts not making it to the guest. Fix by always scanning the entire redirection table. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>

Unfortunately, in addition to unshadowing the pagetables, it also oopses. This never triggers on ordinary guests since sane OSes will clear the pagetables before assigning them to userspace, which will trigger the flood heuristic, unshadowing the pagetables before the first userspace access. One particular guest, though (Xenner) will run the kernel in userspace, triggering the oops. Since the heuristic is incorrect in this case, we can simply remove it.
