2009-06-11moxa: prevent opening unavailable portsDirk Eibach1-0/+5
In moxa.c there are 32 minor numbers reserved for each device. The number of ports actually available per device is stored in moxa_board_conf->numPorts. This number is not considered in moxa_open(). Opening a port that is not available results in a kernel oops. This patch adds a test to moxa_open() that prevents opening unavailable ports.

2009-06-11tty: remove buffer special casingAlan Cox2-17/+4

2009-06-11tty: rewrite the ldisc lockingAlan Cox9-250/+321
There are several pretty much unfixable races in the old ldisc code, especially with respect to pty behaviour and also to hangup. It's easier to rewrite the code than simply try and patch it up. This patch - splits the ldisc from the tty (so we will be able to refcount it more cleanly later) - introduces a mutex lock for ldisc changing on an active device - fixes the complete mess that hangup caused - implements hopefully correct setldisc/close/hangup locking There are still some problems around pty pairs that have always been there but at least it is now possible to understand the code and fix further problems. This fixes the following known bugs - hang up can leak ldisc references - hang up may not call open/close on ldisc in a matched way - pty/tty pairs can deadlock during an ldisc change - reading the ldisc proc files can cause every ldisc to be loaded and probably a few other of the mysterious ldisc race reports. I'm sure it also adds the odd new one. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2009-06-11tty: throttling race fixAlan Cox1-0/+13
The tty throttling code can race due to the lock drops. It takes very high loads but this has been observed and verified by Rob Duncan. The basic problem is that on an SMP box we can go CPU #1 CPU #2 need to throttle ? suppose we should buffer space cleared are we throttled yes ? - unthrottle call throttle method This changeet take the termios lock to protect against this. The termios lock isn't the initial obvious candidate but many implementations of throttle methods already need to poke around their own termios structures (and nobody really locks them against a racing change of flow control). This does mean that anyone who is setting tty->low_latency = 1 and then calling tty_flip_buffer_push from their unthrottle method is going to end up collapsing in a pile of locks. However we've removed all the known bogus users of low_latency = 1 and such use isn't safe anyway for other reasons so catching it would be an improvement.

2009-06-09Make /dev/zero reads interruptible by signalsLinus Torvalds1-3/+2
This helps with bad latencies for large reads from /dev/zero, but might conceivably break some application that "knows" that a read of /dev/zero cannot return early. So do this early in the merge window to give us maximal test coverage, even if the patch is totally trivial. Obviously, no well-behaved application should ever depend on the read being uninterruptible, but hey, bugs happen. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2009-06-09char: mxser, fix ISA board lookupPeter Botha1-1/+1
There's a bug in the mxser kernel module that still appears in the 2.6.29.4 kernel. mxser_get_ISA_conf takes a ioaddress as its first argument, by passing the not of the ioaddr, you're effectively passing 0 which means it won't be able to talk to an ISA card. I have tested this, and removing the ! fixes the problem.

2009-06-04drivers/char/mem.c: avoid OOM lockup during large reads from /dev/zeroSalman Qazi1-0/+3
While running 20 parallel instances of dd as follows: #!/bin/bash for i in `seq 1 20`; do dd if=/dev/zero of=/export/hda3/dd_$i bs=1073741824 count=1 & done wait on a 16G machine, we noticed that rather than just killing the processes, the entire kernel went down. Stracing dd reveals that it first does an mmap2, which makes 1GB worth of zero page mappings. Then it performs a read on those pages from /dev/zero, and finally it performs a write. The machine died during the reads. Looking at the code, it was noticed that /dev/zero's read operation had been changed by 557ed1fa2620dc119adb86b34c614e152a629a80 ("remove ZERO_PAGE") from giving zero page mappings to actually zeroing the page. The zeroing of the pages causes physical pages to be allocated to the process. But, when the process exhausts all the memory that it can, the kernel cannot kill it, as it is still in the kernel mode allocating more memory. Consequently, the kernel eventually crashes. To fix this, I propose that when a fatal signal is pending during /dev/zero read operation, we simply return and let the user process die.
