[POWERPC] Fix corruption in hcall9
It looks to me like we are corrupting r12 in the hcall9 function.
Although we have r0 free we cant use offsets against it, so save
away r12 in there instead. r12 holds the ninth return value from
the hypervisor call, so without this fix, the caller will see the
wrong value for the ninth element in the array that gets the return

[PATCH] fix garbage instead of zeroes in UFS
Looks like this is the problem, which point Al Viro some time ago:
ufs's get_block callback allocates 16k of disk at a time, and links that
entire 16k into the file's metadata. But because get_block is called for only
a single buffer_head (a 2k buffer_head in this case?) we are only able to tell
the VFS that this 2k is buffer_new().
So when ufs_getfrag_block() is later called to map some more data in the file,
and when that data resides within the remaining 14k of this fragment,
ufs_getfrag_block() will incorrectly return a !buffer_new() buffer_head.
I don't see _right_ way to do nullification of whole block, if use inode
page cache, some pages may be outside of inode limits (inode size), and
will be lost; if use blockdev page cache it is possible to zero real data,
if later inode page cache will be used.
The simpliest way, as can I see usage of block device page cache, but not only
mark dirty, but also sync it during "nullification". I use my simple tests
collection, which I used for check that create,open,write,read,close works on
ufs, and I see that this patch makes ufs code 18% slower then before.

[PATCH] fix OOM killing of swapoff
These days, if you swapoff when there isn't enough memory, OOM killer gives
"BUG: scheduling while atomic" and the machine hangs: badness() needs to do
its PF_SWAPOFF return after the task_unlock (tasklist_lock is also held
here, so p isn't going to be freed: PF_SWAPOFF might get turned off at any

[PATCH] Check for populated zone in __drain_pages
Both process_zones() and drain_node_pages() check for populated zones
before touching pagesets. However, __drain_pages does not do so,
This may result in a NULL pointer dereference for pagesets in unpopulated
zones if a NUMA setup is combined with cpu hotplug.
Initially the unpopulated zone has the pcp pointers pointing to the boot
pagesets. Since the zone is not populated the boot pageset pointers will
not be changed during page allocator and slab bootstrap.
If a cpu is later brought down (first call to __drain_pages()) then the pcp
pointers for cpus in unpopulated zones are set to NULL since __drain_pages
does not first check for an unpopulated zone.
If the cpu is then brought up again then we call process_zones() which will
ignore the unpopulated zone. So the pageset pointers will still be NULL.
If the cpu is then again brought down then __drain_pages will attempt to
drain pages by following the NULL pageset pointer for unpopulated zones.

* we can cache real mode, 32-bit mode, pae, and long mode page

- the guest page table table
* some kernels use a page as both a page table and a page directory. this
allows multiple shadow pages to exist for that page, one per level
- the "quadrant"
* 32-bit mode page tables span 4MB, whereas a shadow page table spans
2MB. similarly, a 32-bit page directory spans 4GB, while a shadow
page directory spans 1GB. the quadrant allows caching up to 4 shadow page
tables for one guest page in one level.

the bit to avoid write protecting the page.

[PATCH] KVM: MMU: Fold fetch_guest() into init_walker()
It is never necessary to fetch a guest entry from an intermediate page table
level (except for large pages), so avoid some confusion by always descending
into the lowest possible level.
Rename init_walker() to walk_addr() as it is no longer restricted to
initialization.

[PATCH] KVM: MMU: Implement simple reverse mapping
Keep in each host page frame's page->private a pointer to the shadow pte which
maps it. If there are multiple shadow ptes mapping the page, set bit 0 of
page->private, and use the rest as a pointer to a linked list of all such
mappings.
Reverse mappings are needed because we when we cache shadow page tables, we
must protect the guest page tables from being modified by the guest, as that
would invalidate the cached ptes.

[PATCH] KVM: Prevent stale bits in cr0 and cr4
Hardware virtualization implementations allow the guests to freely change some
of the bits in cr0 and cr4, but trap when changing the other bits. This is
useful to avoid excessive exits due to changing, for example, the ts flag.
It also means the kvm's copy of cr0 and cr4 may be stale with respect to these
bits. most of the time this doesn't matter as these bits are not very
interesting. Other times, however (for example when returning cr0 to
userspace), they are, so get the fresh contents of these bits from the guest
by means of a new arch operation.

[PATCH] Update the rtc-rs5c372 driver
Bugfixes:
- Handle RTCs which are configured to use 12-hour mode.
- Never report bogus/un-initialized times.
- Displaying "raw trim" requires not masking it first!
- Fix the sysfs and procfs display of crystal and trim data.
Features:
- Handle other RTCs in this family, notably rv5c386/rv5c387.
- Declare the other registers.
- Provide alarm get/set functionality.
- Handle AIE and UIE; but no IRQ handling yet.
Cleanup:
- Shrink object by not including needless sysfs or procfs support
- We don't need no steenkin' forward declarations. (Except one.)
Until the I2C framework merges "new style" driver support, matching
the driver model better, using rv5c chips or alarm IRQs requires a
separate board-specific patch. (And an IRQ handler, handing off labor
through a work_struct...)
This uses the "method 3" register reads, but notes that it's done
to work around an evident i2c adapter driver bug.

[PATCH] fix memory corruption from misinterpreted bad_inode_ops return values
CVE-2006-5753 is for a case where an inode can be marked bad, switching
the ops to bad_inode_ops, which are all connected as:
static int return_EIO(void)
{
return -EIO;
}
#define EIO_ERROR ((void *) (return_EIO))
static struct inode_operations bad_inode_ops =
{
.create = bad_inode_create
...etc...
The problem here is that the void cast causes return types to not be
promoted, and for ops such as listxattr which expect more than 32 bits of
return value, the 32-bit -EIO is interpreted as a large positive 64-bit
number, i.e. 0x00000000fffffffa instead of 0xfffffffa.
This goes particularly badly when the return value is taken as a number of
bytes to copy into, say, a user's buffer for example...
I originally had coded up the fix by creating a return_EIO_<TYPE> macro
for each return type, like this:
static int return_EIO_int(void)
{
return -EIO;
}
#define EIO_ERROR_INT ((void *) (return_EIO_int))
static struct inode_operations bad_inode_ops =
{
.create = EIO_ERROR_INT,
...etc...
but Al felt that it was probably better to create an EIO-returner for each
actual op signature. Since so few ops share a signature, I just went ahead
& created an EIO function for each individual file & inode op that returns
a value.
