David S. Miller dc6de33674 [NET]: Add skb->truesize assertion checking.
Add some sanity checking.  truesize should be at least sizeof(struct
sk_buff) plus the current packet length.  If not, then truesize is
seriously mangled and deserves a kernel log message.

Currently we'll do the check for release of stream socket buffers.

But we can add checks to more spots over time.

Incorporating ideas from Herbert Xu.

Herbert Xu b60b49ea6a [TCP]: Account skb overhead in tcp_fragment
Make sure that we get the full sizeof(struct sk_buff)
plus the data size accounted for in skb->truesize.

This will create invariants that will allow adding
assertion checks on skb->truesize.

Johannes Berg d47f3640fe [SUNGEM]: Marvell PHY suspend.
In a short discussion with Benjamin Herrenschmidt he mentioned
that Marvell PHYs are powered down the same way as the other
ones we currently handle. Thus actually do that, hopefully
saving some power during suspend.

David S. Miller 5185db09f4 [LLC]: Use pskb_trim_rcsum() in llc_fixup_skb().
Kernel Bugzilla #6409

If we use plain skb_trim(), that's wrong, because if
the SKB is cloned, and it can be because we unshared
it in the caller, we have to allow reallocation.  The
pskb_trim*() family of routines is therefore the most
appropriate here.

Hua Zhong 3672558c61 [NET]: sockfd_lookup_light() returns random error for -EBADFD
This applies to 2.6.17-rc2.

There is a missing initialization of err in sockfd_lookup_light() that

Hal Rosenstock 64cb9c6aff IB/mad: Fix RMPP version check during agent registration
Only check that RMPP version is not specified when MAD class does not
support RMPP.  Just because a class is allowed to use RMPP doesn't
mean that rmpp_version needs to be set for the MAD agent to
register. Checking this was a recent change which was too pedantic.

J. Bruce Fields d4a30e7e66 RPCSEC_GSS: fix leak in krb5 code caused by superfluous kmalloc
I was sloppy when generating a previous patch; I modified the callers of
krb5_make_checksum() to allocate memory for the buffer where the result is
returned, then forgot to modify krb5_make_checksum to stop allocating that
memory itself.  The result is a per-packet memory leak.  This fixes the
problem by removing the now-superfluous kmalloc().

From http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6358

The alim15x3.c havn't been update for 3 years.  Recently when we use this
"ULI M1573" south bridge chip found that can't mount CDROM(VCD) smoothly,
must waiting for a long time.  After I check the "ULI M1573" south bridge
datasheet, I found the reason.  The reason is the "ULI M1573" version in
the Linux is "0xC7" not "0xC4" anymore So I was modified the source than it
was successed.

This patch removes all such inline and adds them to kprobes section
there by disallowing probes on all such routines.  Some of the routines
can even still be inlined, since these routines gets executed after the

Heikki Orsila 3fb0cb5d0f [PATCH] Open IPMI BT overflow
I was looking into random driver code and found a suspicious looking
memcpy() in drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_bt_sm.c on 2.6.17-rc1:

	if ((size < 2) || (size > IPMI_MAX_MSG_LENGTH))
		return -1;
	...
	memcpy(bt->write_data + 3, data + 1, size - 1);

where sizeof bt->write_data is IPMI_MAX_MSG_LENGTH.  It looks like the
memcpy would overflow by 2 bytes if size == IPMI_MAX_MSG_LENGTH.  A patch
attached to limit size to (IPMI_MAX_LENGTH - 2).

Randy Dunlap 5e12227179 [PATCH] Doc: vm/hugetlbpage update-2
Add new line of /proc/meminfo output.

Explain the HugePage_ lines in /proc/meminfo (from Bill Irwin).

Change KB to kB since the latter is what is used in the kernel.

Samuel Thibault 7337445455 [PATCH] apm: fix Armada laptops again
Fix the "apm: set display: Interface not engaged" error on Armada laptops
again.

Jordan said:

  I think this is fine.  It seems to me that this may be the fault of one or
  both of the APM solutions handling this situation in a non-standard way, but
  since APM is used very little on the Geode, and I have direct access to our
  BIOS folks, if this problem comes up with a customer again, we'll solve it
  from the firmware.

Tim Chen cca57c5b5a [PATCH] Kconfig.debug: Set DEBUG_MUTEX to off by default
DEBUG_MUTEX flag is on by default in current kernel configuration.

During performance testing, we saw mutex debug functions like
mutex_debug_check_no_locks_freed (called by kfree()) is expensive as it
goes through a global list of memory areas with mutex lock and do the
checking.  For benchmarks such as Volanomark and Hackbench, we have seen
more than 40% drop in performance on some platforms.  We suggest to set
DEBUG_MUTEX off by default.  Or at least do that later when we feel that
the mutex changes in the current code have stabilized.

Dipankar Sarma ca99c1da08 [PATCH] Fix file lookup without ref
There are places in the kernel where we look up files in fd tables and
access the file structure without holding refereces to the file.  So, we
need special care to avoid the race between looking up files in the fd
table and tearing down of the file in another CPU.  Otherwise, one might
see a NULL f_dentry or such torn down version of the file.  This patch
fixes those special places where such a race may happen.

Jeff Dike fb30d64568 [PATCH] uml: add missing __volatile__
We were missing __volatile__ on some bits of asm in the segfault handlers.
On x86_64, this was messing up the move from %rdx to uc because that was
moved to after the GET_FAULTINFO_FROM_SC, which changed %rdx.

Also changed the other bit of asm and the one in the i386 handler to
prevent any similar occurrences.
