[Sergey Shtylyov]

Add myself as a reviewer for the libata PATA drivers -- there has been some
activity in this area still... 8-)
Having been hacking on ATA from the early 90s, I think I deserved this
highly responsible position, at last! :-)

Thanks for the patch! It looks like I sent up a patch to Greg that addresses this
issue on 6/30/2017:
 
	[PATCH 25/25] staging: unisys: visorbus: fix improper bracket blocks

Also, your patch come in with a subject of just the word [PATCH] and the patch
comment was messed up. I'm not sure how you generated the patch, but you
might want to try it with format-patch and then do a git send-email to yourself
as a dry-run to see if the patch looks OK when you get it.

What happened to your Subject:?

Also, why put the '---' line here?  That means that git will delete
everything else.

CONFIG_FIREWIRE_OHCI_DEBUG could have been exposed to kernel tweakers
if CONFIG_EXPERT was set.  But in hindsight, this stuff is far too
useful to omit it.  So get rid of two #else branches that are only
going to bitrot otherwise.

[Rafael J. Wysocki]

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
Subject: fs / ext3: Always unlock updates in ext3_freeze()

In analogy with ext4 make ext3_freeze() always call
journal_unlock_updates() to prevent it from leaving a locked mutex
behind.  Accordingly, modify ext3_unfreeze() so that it doesn't
call journal_unlock_updates() any more.

I assume Michal will pick it up anyway - but if you do it would make
it simpler for him to do so.

Sorry, the missing subject really was sloppy of me, and thanks.

I don't think the fix deserves to be in stable.  It does not look like
60f33b8 made it possible to use ncursesw on a box like mine so the patch
is not evan an regression-fix.

Thanks; is it my responsibility to follow-up the thread with identical

[PATCH]

[Junio C Hamano]

In 60f33b8 (kconfig: get rid of stray a.o, support ncursesw, 2006-01-15),
support to link menuconfig with ncursesw library was added.  To compute
the linker command option -l, we check "libncursesw.{so,a,dylib}" to allow
ncursesw to be used as a replacement ncurses.  However, when checking what
header file to include, we do not check /usr/include/ncursesw directory.

Add /usr/include/ncursesw to the list of directories that are checked.
With this patch, on my Debian Lenny box with libncursesw5-dev package but
not libncurses5-dev package, I can say "make menuconfig".

Subject: [PATCH] kconfig: fix segfault when detecting recursive dependency

Following sample Kconfig generated a segfault:

config FOO
        bool
        select PERF_EVENTS if HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT

config PERF_EVENTS
        bool

config HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT
        bool
        depends on PERF_EVENTS

Fix by reverting back to a valid property if there was no
property on the stack of symbols.

The above pattern were seen in sh Kconfig.
A fix for the Kconfig file has been sent to the sh folks.

[PATCH]

[Tim Shimmin]

Hi Linus,

Please include the following patch for 2.6.27.1 stable release as
suggested by Christoph Hellwig and Eric Sandeen.
It fixes a regression in the recent remount recoding
where remounting say from ro to rw allows the xfs flags to
be out of sync with the vfs flags, resulting
in failures for some programs such as touch (which end up calling xfs_setattr).
The fix is a very minor and clear.

Thanks,
Tim.

Date: Sun, 12 Oct 2008 14:30:44 +0200
From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
To: xfs@oss.sgi.com
Subject: [PATCH] fix remount rw with unrecognized options

When we skip unrecognized options in xfs_fs_remount we should just break
out of the switch and not return because otherwise we may skip clearing
the xfs-internal read-only flag.  This will only show up on some
operations like touch because most read-only checks are done by the VFS
which thinks this filesystem is r/w.  Eventually we should replace the
XFS read-only flag with a helper that always checks the VFS flag to make
sure they can never get out of sync.

Bug reported and fix verified by Marcel Beister on #xfs.
Bug fix verified by updated xfstests/189.

As it turns out, the kernel divides by EXT3_INODES_PER_GROUP(s)
when mounting an ext3 filesystem. If that number is zero,
a crash follows. Below a patch.

This crash was reported by Joeri de Ruiter, Carst Tankink and Pim Vullers.

When you know what you're doing you can just patch then Kconfig files.
IMHO that's better than this.

Ah, good point, but I think it fits.

Well, we've had problems in the past where people turn on options  
under CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL or CONFIG_EMBEDDED and it breaks in exactly  
the specified fashion and they complain on LKML.  The point of this  
is to expose kconfig tunables which a "normal" kconfig user would get  
wrong 99% of the time and would break in obscure ways.  For example,  
the "CONFIG_MULTITHREAD_PCI_PROBE" option, if it was re-added for  
more tinkering, could go under this option.

Ah, see, due to the magic of kconfig language this does not show up  
as a separate option (no text for the "bool") identifier.  It's just  
an alias for I_KNOW_WHAT_THE_HELL_I_AM_DOING to make it easier to use  
in other Kconfig files ("depends EXPERT && SOME_OPTION!=n &&  
ANOTHER_OPTION") instead of s/EXPERT/I_KNOW_WHAT_THE_HELL_I_AM_DOING/g.

This is the new display intreface. Its goal is to provide a standard 
interface to various types of displays. Currently we have auxdisplay, 
output acpi device and the now defunct lcd class in the backlight directory.
Please apply.

[PATCH]

[Kumar Gala]

PCI: Add pci_assign_resource_fixed -- allow fixed address assignments

On some embedded systems the PCI address for hotplug devices are not only
known a priori but are required to be at a given PCI address for other
master in the system to be able to access.

An example of such a system would be an FPGA which is setup from user space
after the system has booted.  The FPGA may be access by DSPs in the system
and those DSPs expect the FPGA at a fixed PCI address.

Added pci_assign_resource_fixed() as a way to allow assignment of the PCI
devices's BARs at fixed PCI addresses.

[PATCH]

[Colin Leroy]

[resend - previous mail seem to have lost itself
Hi,

this patch is an RFC patch not to be applied.
It adds MS_SYNCHRONOUS support to FAT filesystem, so that less
filesystem breakage happen when disconnecting an USB key, for 
example. I'd like to have comments about it, because as it 
seems to work fine here, I'm not used to fs drivers and could
have made mistakes.
Thanks,

[PATCH]

[Roland McGrath]

This replaces x86-64-singlestep-through-sigreturn-system-call-2.patch
from 2.6.8-rc2-mm2.  The second addition in entry.S is the difference.
This fixes a problem where additional singlesteps immediately after the
singlestep stop after sigreturn would not work right.

Note you might want to rename the patch, since this also has the effect of
making single-stepping of IA32 syscalls work right.


Thanks,
Roland

Nope, that's not sufficient.  There's a reason why we're doing what
we're doing in random.c.  To quote from RFC 1948:

   The choice of initial sequence numbers for a connection is not
   random.  Rather, it must be chosen so as to minimize the probability
   of old stale packets being accepted by new incarnations of the same
   connection [6, Appendix A].  Furthermore, implementations of TCP
   derived from 4.2BSD contain special code to deal with such
   reincarnations when the server end of the original connection is
   still in TIMEWAIT state [7, pp. 945].  Accordingly, SIMPLE
   RANDOMIZATION, AS SUGGESTED IN [8], WILL NOT WORK WELL.

The F() as defined in RFC 1948, needs to be a crypto hash.  But it
doesn't need to be a particularly strong hash.  If it takes longer for
the attacker to break the hash than our rekey interval, that's
sufficient, since what we're protecting any kind of secrecy of the
data; we just need to prevent the attacker from guessing the initial
sequence number just long enough so that he can't hijack a TCP
connection.  Hence the use of a cut-down MD4.  It's kludgy, yeah, and
it smells of roll-your-own-crypto, granted, but I emphasize again that
(a) this was never considered very high protection; if you really care
about protecting against these sorts of attacks, you will be using
application-level crypto (i.e., ssh'ing to a Cisco box instead of
using an unencrypted telnet connection), and (b) using real crypto is
too slow, and was affecting Linux in various network benchmarks.
That's why it was changed from the original MD5 as suggested by
Bellovin in RFC 1948, to a cut-down MD4.  

And we ***never*** were insane enough to use SHA, or suggest that the
use of SHA was a good idea in this particular application.  I don't
know why some people had the assumption that SHA was ever used in TCP
sequence number generation, but they were wrong; that was never the
case.

Fortuna overcomes the small pool size problem.  For the most part, I really
like how the current random.c collects data.  

The only parts we're proposing to replace are:
 - The pooling (thus, mixing) mechanizums as per in Fortuna by Schnier and
   Furguson
 - The random data output mechanizum (Fortuna)
 - TCP sequence number generation (AES in CTR mode truncated to 32 bits, has
   period of 2^32 and cannot be easily determined from pervious sequences)
   I will read your reference and learn from the implementation in random.c
 - TCP SYNcookies to encrypt 8bit "count" value and the 24bit "data" (MSS)
   value with AES in CTR mode.  I can prove that this is exactly what is
   being done now with the "two SHA1 hashes and a bunch of addition" method.

Crutial to my proposal will be not "not rock the boat".  That is, keeping all
important interfaces intact to not break anything else in the kernel.

SHA is not going to be faster than the cut-down MD4 --- and you can't
use a pure random sequence number for the initial TCP sequence number,
lest a packet from a previous TCP connection get mistaken as belong to
the newly created TCP stream.  See Bellovin's recommendations for
secure TCP sequnce number genreation for a discussion of the
constraints.

The Yarrow-type PRNG suffers from the problem that the entropy pool is
pathetically small.  It fundamentally assumes that the crypto checksum
is secure, and it is really much more of a *P*RNG than anything else.
The scheme used in the current /dev/random design is much closer to
that used by GPG, and relies on a large pool so that we can collect as
much entropy as possible from the hardware sources available to the
kernel.  I'm not familiar with the Fortuna PRNG that you're going to
propose, but my guess is that it will have a similar, much heavier
dependence on the crypto algorithms in terms of its assumptions.

In our paper (I'm testing the patch now) we'll be proposing using the Fortuna
PRNG inplace of the current design.  It only uses SHA256 and AES256 (or any
message digest & block cipher combo).  The primary advantages of this design
would be:
 - It's simpler
 - It's faster
 - It doesn't "rool your own" crypto

If you pass all input data into a Yarrow-type PRNG - like the Fortuna PRNG
we're going to propose - you will never care about this since the current
state of the pools are always based on all the previous input.

I guess the point I was trying to make was:
 - You never want to wipe out the pool
 - You never want to let people (not even yourself) get access to the pool
   The closest thing you can do (and the paper will explain this) is hash
   a counter and the data from each of your pools though a message digest
   and concatenate it together.

I'm really putting the horse infront of the cart here.  We'll put a paper up
for lkml to read by the end of the month which will fully explain:
 - Our reasoning
 - Our goals
 - Our results

This was deliberate becasue sequence number generation could not be
slow for some workloads.  The sequence number attacks that MD4
protects against are tcp hijacking attacks where the attacker is on
the network path ---- if you really want security you'd be using real
crypto for encryption and for integrity protection at the application
layer.

The basic idea here is that you can mix in arbitrary amounts of zero
data without destroying the randomness of the pool.  This is
important, and was an explicit design goal.

The problems with the SHA1 implementation is the least of random.c's
concerns.  But it's just bad taste to tell on-lookers "we use SHA-1" and you
actually don't.  It causes people to re-evailuate your implementation.

Ease of reading, ease of analysis are related to using proper implementations
of cryptographic primitives.

Are you saying that it's hashing incorrectly or that the final form is
not in the standard bit-order? For the purposes of a random number
generator, the latter isn't terribly important. Nor is it particularly
important for GUIDs.

Why do you care about scatter gather at all?  You need to allocate
a kernel buffer to copy the user bits into _anyways_.  Once you
have a kernel buffer, doing a quick onstack one-entry scatter list
is simple.

If you're trying to use the user buffer directly, sorry we're not

I hear you, these are all desirable things and I hate trying to be the black
sheep - but would random.c make sense in being the exception since the
outward looking interfaces (random_write for example) all use const char*
type as arguments?

Keeping the existing random.c interface and using crypto-api's scatter-gather
interface are kind of contradictory ... or and I really missing something
important (likely)?

That and it's not endian-correct.  There are other issues with random.c (lack

Ehh. A lot of encryption algorithms are not re-entrant, which means that 
you can't take page faults in the middle without serious trouble.

And if the data is smaller than a page, then it's cheaper to just copy it
into kernel memory than it is to try to follow the page tables by hand.  
One is usually nice cached accesses, the other one is nasty code with
locking and often totally uncached.

So I'd strongly suggest against doing any "raw crypto access". Zero-copy
is often just a complicated way of doing things slowly, all in the name of
some benchmark performance.

Thank you for your input.  But please read this note in the RFC2385:
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2385.html
 "Section 4.4: MD5 as a Hashing Algorithm"
 It talks about MD5 as an insecure algorithm and how changing it would
 require a new RFC, which make me sad.
 If you could add support for SHA-1 as well that would be nifty.

But here is the problem, it's going to be implemented as a scatter-
gather list on the stack to pass on to the actual crypto layer.

If you just blindly use this new interface, you may not be aware
of this overhead and thus not consider moving to sg-based methods.
This is what I want to avoid.

Yes, it is social engineering. :-)

I see nothing wrong with explicitly coding things out, as we do
now.

James,

Would you be against a patch to cryptoapi to have access to a
non-scatter-list set of calls?

I know a few people would like to see that , and I would also like to use
some low-level:

crypto_digest_update_byte(struct digest_alg *digest,
                          unsigned char *buf,
                          unsigned int  nbytes);
crypto_cipher_encrypt_byte(struct cipher_alg *cipher,
                           unsigned char *dst,
                           unsigned char *src,
                           unsigned int  nbytes);

I'm in the middle of preparing for a paper and would like to get code running

Hi James,

the aes-i586 patch recently added to BK breaks compilation of AES on

BTW Why was the config option renamed to CRYPTO_AES_GENERIC? The

CRYPTO_AES_586) and wouldn't collide. Couldn't we revert this little change?

[patch]

[Adrian Bunk]

gcc 3.3 correctly gives the following warning:

<--  snip  -->

...
  CC      drivers/mtd/ftl.o
drivers/mtd/ftl.c: In function `scan_header':
drivers/mtd/ftl.c:191: warning: comparison is always false due to 
limited range 
...

<--  snip  -->

Looking at the code it seems gcc is correct, a 16bit number can _never_
be > 65536.

The following patch removes this comparison:

I've tested the compilation with 2.6.0-test2 and 2.4.22-pre9.

[PATCH]

[Paul Mackerras]

Linus,

This patch is a forward-port from 2.4.  It changes the pcmcia resource
allocation code so that it allocates IO and memory resources from the
correct resource parent.  The details were discussed on lkml last year
in the 2.4 context.  I need this on powerbooks because they have
multiple PCI host bridges.  Please apply this to your tree.

Paul.

Re: [PATCH]

[Andre Hedrick]

This patch is not going anywhere for a while, until all the archs have
consistant local_*_*() spinlock but I noted what needs to be fixed and who
broke what.

I have another method but it was not reasonable or predictable until I
finish the driver conversion to fully modular and delete 95% of the
duplicated code mess I made over the years.

Your are free to copy it into 2.5 as always.

I agree with the option, just not the way it is implemented. If I want
to enable dma after boot, I must be able to do so.

I have a solution, the current SuSE kernel gets it right. I'll backport
that to 2.4.19-pre once this patch is in.

Yep,

Edit ide-taskfile.c find ide_driveid_update

Changes the #if 1 to #if 0

Attempting to make the code compress but it appears that entry for
updating is more than a simple direct call.  Still banging it out.

Well it compiled fine this time, but it seems to have problems with gcc-3.0.4 I am using to
compile kernels.  This gcc has been fine for all other uses, but it must be something with this
particular build because gcc-2.95.4 works without a problem.  Anyways, here is the oops report
if it may interest you.

Spinlock issues address and 99% fixed.
6 new chipsets.
Taskfile IO should be stable.
Borrowed cleanups from 2.5.5 credit given to <martin d>
Bunches of patchs that have been submitted but not added until now.

Thanks for all the support gang ... this should make life a little better.

AEC6280 U100
AEC6880 U133
SI680 U133
CSB6 U100
HPT374 U100(U133??)

Intel ICH3
VIA latest (via vojtech)

Super Taskfile special vender modes, and transparent to API.

Things which can not be fixed yet.

Spinlock sleep during probe to get.
Spinlock on pci-proc operations.

Process to convert codebase to as single filter/mask ruleset for timings.

[PATCH]

[Christoph Hellwig]

Hi Linus,

the appended patch adds four exports needed for Linux-ABI:

 o do_fork & do_pipe because the emulated SysV syscalls call
   these directly.
 o the other two are needed by emulated syscongig() support.

Please apply,

	Christoph
