nl_fib_input re-reuses incoming skb to send the reply. This means that this

After reading the directory contents into the temporary buffer, we grab
each dirent and pass it to filldir witht eh current offset of the dirent.
The current offset was not being set for the first dirent in the temporary
buffer, which coul dresult in bad offsets being set in the f_pos field
result in looping and duplicate entries being returned from readdir.

bad60fdd14 [XFS] Fix mknod regression
This was broken by my '[XFS] simplify xfs_create/mknod/symlink prototype',
which assigned the re-shuffled ondisk dev_t back to the rdev variable in
xfs_vn_mknod. Because of that i_rdev is set to the ondisk dev_t instead of
the linux dev_t later down the function.

Fortunately the fix for it is trivial: we can just remove the assignment
because xfs_revalidate_inode has done the proper job before unlocking the
inode.

c0a698b744 x86: fix die() to not be preemptible
Andrew "Eagle Eye" Morton noticed that we use raw_local_save_flags()
instead of raw_local_irq_save(flags) in die(). This allows the
preemption of oopsing contexts - which is highly undesirable. It also
causes CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT to complain, as reported by Miles Lane.

this bug was introduced via:

  commit 39743c9ef7
  Author: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>
  Date:   Fri Oct 19 20:35:03 2007 +0200

      x86: use raw locks during oopses

-               spin_lock_irqsave(&die.lock, flags);
+               __raw_spin_lock(&die.lock);
+               raw_local_save_flags(flags);

that is not a correct open-coding of spin_lock_irqsave(): both the
ordering is wrong (irqs should be disabled _first_), and the wrong
flags-saving API was used.

1ac70e7ad2 [NET]: Fix function put_cmsg() which may cause usr application memory overflow
When used function put_cmsg() to copy kernel information to user 
application memory, if the memory length given by user application is 
not enough, by the bad length calculate of msg.msg_controllen, 
put_cmsg() function may cause the msg.msg_controllen to be a large 
value, such as 0xFFFFFFF0, so the following put_cmsg() can also write 
data to usr application memory even usr has no valid memory to store 
this. This may cause usr application memory overflow.

int put_cmsg(struct msghdr * msg, int level, int type, int len, void *data)
{
    struct cmsghdr __user *cm
        = (__force struct cmsghdr __user *)msg->msg_control;
    struct cmsghdr cmhdr;
    int cmlen = CMSG_LEN(len);
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    int err;

    if (MSG_CMSG_COMPAT & msg->msg_flags)
        return put_cmsg_compat(msg, level, type, len, data);

    if (cm==NULL || msg->msg_controllen < sizeof(*cm)) {
        msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC;
        return 0; /* XXX: return error? check spec. */
    }
    if (msg->msg_controllen < cmlen) {
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC;
        cmlen = msg->msg_controllen;
    }
    cmhdr.cmsg_level = level;
    cmhdr.cmsg_type = type;
    cmhdr.cmsg_len = cmlen;

    err = -EFAULT;
    if (copy_to_user(cm, &cmhdr, sizeof cmhdr))
        goto out;
    if (copy_to_user(CMSG_DATA(cm), data, cmlen - sizeof(struct cmsghdr)))
        goto out;
    cmlen = CMSG_SPACE(len);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    If MSG_CTRUNC flags is set, msg->msg_controllen is less than 
CMSG_SPACE(len), "msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen" will cause unsinged int 
type msg->msg_controllen to be a large value.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    msg->msg_control += cmlen;
    msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen;
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    err = 0;
out:
    return err;
}

The same promble exists in put_cmsg_compat(). This patch can fix this 
problem.

91e1062592 dm crypt: use bio_add_page
Fix possible max_phys_segments violation in cloned dm-crypt bio.

In write operation dm-crypt needs to allocate new bio request
and run crypto operation on this clone. Cloned request has always
the same size, but number of physical segments can be increased
and violate max_phys_segments restriction.

This can lead to data corruption and serious hardware malfunction.
This was observed when using XFS over dm-crypt and at least
two HBA controller drivers (arcmsr, cciss) recently.

Fix it by using bio_add_page() call (which tests for other
restrictions too) instead of constructing own biovec.

All versions of dm-crypt are affected by this bug.

512875bd96 dm: table detect io beyond device
This patch fixes a panic on shrinking a DM device if there is
outstanding I/O to the part of the device that is being removed.
(Normally this doesn't happen - a filesystem would be resized first,
for example.)

The bug is that __clone_and_map() assumes dm_table_find_target()
always returns a valid pointer.  It may fail if a bio arrives from the
block layer but its target sector is no longer included in the DM
btree.

This patch appends an empty entry to table->targets[] which will
be returned by a lookup beyond the end of the device.

After calling dm_table_find_target(), __clone_and_map() and target_message()
check for this condition using
dm_target_is_valid().

2c3b20e91f debug: add end-of-oops marker
Right now it's nearly impossible for parsers that collect kernel crashes
from logs or emails (such as www.kerneloops.org) to detect the
end-of-oops condition. In addition, it's not currently possible to
detect whether or not 2 oopses that look alike are actually the same
oops reported twice, or are truly two unique oopses.

This patch adds an end-of-oops marker, and makes the end marker include
a very simple 64-bit random ID to be able to detect duplicate reports.

Normally, this ID is calculated as a late_initcall() (in the hope that
at that time there is enough entropy to get a unique enough ID); however
for early oopses the oops_exit() function needs to generate the ID on
the fly.

We do this all at the _end_ of an oops printout, so this does not impact
our ability to get the most important portions of a crash out to the
console first.

[ Sidenote: the already existing oopses-since-bootup counter we print
  during crashes serves as the differentiator between multiple oopses
  that trigger during the same bootup. ]

Tested on 32-bit and 64-bit x86. Artificially injected very early
crashes as well, as expected they result in this constant ID after
multiple bootups:

  ---[ end trace ca143223eefdc828 ]---
  ---[ end trace ca143223eefdc828 ]---

because the random pools are still all zero. But it all still works
fine and causes no additional problems (which is the main goal of
instrumentation code).

f398035f2d [IPSEC]: Avoid undefined shift operation when testing algorithm ID
The aalgos/ealgos fields are only 32 bits wide.  However, af_key tries
to test them with the expression 1 << id where id can be as large as
253.  This produces different behaviour on different architectures.

The following patch explicitly checks whether ID is greater than 31
and fails the check if that's the case.

We cannot easily extend the mask to be longer than 32 bits due to
exposure to user-space.  Besides, this whole interface is obsolete
anyway in favour of the xfrm_user interface which doesn't use this
bit mask in templates (well not within the kernel anyway).

286e310f94 [TG3]: Endianness bugfix.
tg3_nvram_write_block_unbuffered() is reading data from nvram into
allocated buffer before overwriting a part of it with user-supplied
data.  Then it feeds the entire page back to nvram.  It should be
storing the words it had read as little-endian, not as host-endian.
Note that tg3_set_eeprom() does exactly that for padding the same
data to full words before it gets passed down to tg3_nvram_write_block()
and then to tg3_nvram_write_block_unbuffered().

Moreover, when we get to sending the entire thing back to nvram, we
go through it word-by-word, doing essentially
	writel(swab32(le32_to_cpu(word)), ...)
so if we want them to reach the card in host-independent endianness,
we'd better really have all that buffer filled with fixed-endian.
For user-supplied part we obviously do have that (it's an array of
octets memcpy'd in), ditto for padding of user-supplied part to word
boundaries (taken care of in tg3_set_eeprom()).  The rest of the
buffer gets filled by tg3_nvram_write_block_unbuffered() and it would
damn better be consistent with that (and with tg3_get_eeprom(), while
we are at it - there we also convert the words read from nvram to
little-endian before returning the buffer to user).

The bug should get triggered on big-endian boxen when set_eeprom is done
for less than entire page.  Then the words that should've been unaffected
at all will actually get byteswapped in place in nvram.

b9fc7dc514 [TG3]: Endianness annotations.
Fixed misannotations, introduced a new helper - tg3_nvram_read_le().
It gets __le32 * instead of u32 * and puts there the value converted
to little-endian.  A lot of callers of tg3_nvram_read() were doing
that; converted them to tg3_nvram_read_le().

At that point the driver is practically endian-clean; the only remaining
place is an actual bug, AFAICS; will be dealt with in the next patch.

20880e8936 NET: mac80211: fix inappropriate memory freeing
Fix inappropriate memory freeing in case of requested rate_control_ops was
not found.  In this case the list head entity is going to be accidentally
wasted.

3333590e94 mac80211: fix header ops
When using recvfrom() on a SOCK_DGRAM packet socket, I noticed that the MAC
address passed back for wireless frames was always completely wrong. The
reason for this is that the header parse function assigned to our virtual
interfaces is a function parsing an 802.11 rather than 802.3 header. This
patch fixes it by keeping the default ethernet header operations assigned.
