4e980ac962 [PATCH] hwmon: Fix missing it87 fan div init
Fix a bug where setting the low fan speed limits will not work if no
data was ever read through the sysfs interface and the fan clock
dividers have not been explicitely set yet either. The reason is that
data->fan_div[nr] may currently be used before it is initialized from
the chip register values. The fix is to explicitely initialize
data->fan_div[nr] before using it.

Bug reported, and fix tested, by Nicolas Mailhot.

ce79890ea5 [PATCH] hwmon: Fix lm78 VID conversion
Fix the lm78 VID reading, which I accidentally broke while making
this driver use the common vid_from_reg function rather than
reimplementing its own in 2.6.14-rc1.

I'm not proud of it, trust me.

067d66baa9 [PATCH] x86_64/i386: Compute correct MTRR mask on early Noconas
Force correct address space size for MTRR on some 64bit Intel Xeons

They report 40bit, but only have 36bits of physical address space.
This caused problems with setting up the correct masks for MTRR,
resulting in incorrect MTRRs.

and EM64T). Detail info can be found at:

Since we've converted the ftp/irc/tftp helpers to use the new
module_parm_array() some time ago, we ware accidentially using signed data
types - thus preventing those modules from being used on ports >= 32768.

This patch fixes it by using 'ushort' module parameters.

e9e2c79214 [PATCH] PPTP helper: fix PNS-PAC expectation call id
The reply tuple of the PNS->PAC expectation was using the wrong call id.

So we had the following situation:
- PNS behind NAT firewall
- PNS call id requires NATing
- PNS->PAC gre packet arrives first

then the PNS->PAC expectation is matched, and the other expectation
is deleted, but the PAC->PNS gre packets do not match the gre conntrack
because the call id is wrong.

We also cannot use ip_nat_follow_master().

0012c3a76b [PATCH] NAT: Fix module refcount dropping too far
The unknown protocol is used as a fallback when a protocol isn't known.
Hence we cannot handle it failing, so don't set ".me".  It's OK, since we
only grab a reference from within the same module (iptable_nat.ko), so we
never take the module refcount from 0 to 1.

Also, remove the "protocol is NULL" test: it's never NULL.

The patch
http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.6/diffs/fs/locks.c@1.70??nav=index.html
introduced a pretty nasty memory leak in the lease code. When freeing
the lease, the code in locks_delete_lock() will correctly clean up
the fasync queue, but when we return to fcntl_setlease(), the freed
fasync entry will be reinstated.

This patch ensures that we skip the call to fasync_helper() when we're
freeing up the lease.

df9586ef73 [PATCH] ipvs: fix connection leak if expire_nodest_conn=1
There was a fix in 2.6.13 that changed the behaviour of
ip_vs_conn_expire_now function not to put reference to connection, its
callers should hold write lock or connection refcnt. But we forgot to
convert one caller, when the real server for connection is unavailable
caller should put the connection reference. It happens only when sysctl
var expire_nodest_conn is set to 1 and such connections never expire.
Thanks to Roberto Nibali who found the problem and tested a 2.4.32-rc2
patch, which is equal to this 2.6 version.

6b85cfab9d [PATCH] fix de_thread() vs send_group_sigqueue() race
When non-leader thread does exec, de_thread calls release_task(leader) before
calling exit_itimers(). If local timer interrupt happens in between, it can
oops in send_group_sigqueue() while taking ->sighand->siglock == NULL.

However, we can't change send_group_sigqueue() to check p->signal != NULL,
because sys_timer_create() does get_task_struct() only in SIGEV_THREAD_ID
case. So it is possible that this task_struct was already freed and we can't
trust p->signal.

This patch changes de_thread() so that leader released after exit_itimers()
call.

75be5e4747 [PATCH] tcp: BIC max increment too large
The max growth of BIC TCP is too large. Original code was based on
BIC 1.0 and the default there was 32. Later code (2.6.13) included
compensation for delayed acks, and should have reduced the default
value to 16; since normally TCP gets one ack for every two packets sent.

The current value of 32 makes BIC too aggressive and unfair to other
flows.

ee5b36ffa0 [PATCH] fix XFS_QUOTA for modular XFS
This patch by Dimitri Puzin submitted through kernel Bugzilla #5514
fixes the following issue:

Cannot build XFS filesystem support as module with quota support. It
works only when the XFS filesystem support is compiled into the kernel.
Menuconfig prevents from setting CONFIG_XFS_FS=m and CONFIG_XFS_QUOTA=y.

How to reproduce: configure the XFS filesystem with quota support as
module. The resulting kernel won't have quota support compiled into
xfs.ko.

Fix: Changing the fs/xfs/Kconfig file from tristate to bool lets you
configure the quota support to be compiled into the XFS module. The
Makefile-linux-2.6 checks only for CONFIG_XFS_QUOTA=y.

e4e0411221 [PATCH] CVE-2005-2709 sysctl unregistration oops
You could open the /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<if>/<whatever> file, then
wait for interface to go away, try to grab as much memory as possible in
hope to hit the (kfreed) ctl_table.  Then fill it with pointers to your
function. Then do read from file you've opened and if you are lucky,
you'll get it called as ->proc_handler() in kernel mode.

So this is at least an Oops and possibly more.  It does depend on an
interface going away though, so less of a security risk than it would
otherwise be.

Commit id 6142891a0c

Andi Kleen reports that it seems to break things for some people,
and since it's purely a small optimization, revert it for now.

2ad41065d9 [TCP]: Clear stale pred_flags when snd_wnd changes
This bug is responsible for causing the infamous "Treason uncloaked"
messages that's been popping up everywhere since the printk was added.
It has usually been blamed on foreign operating systems.  However,
some of those reports implicate Linux as both systems are running
Linux or the TCP connection is going across the loopback interface.

In fact, there really is a bug in the Linux TCP header prediction code
that's been there since at least 2.1.8.  This bug was tracked down with
help from Dale Blount.

The effect of this bug ranges from harmless "Treason uncloaked"
messages to hung/aborted TCP connections.  The details of the bug
and fix is as follows.

When snd_wnd is updated, we only update pred_flags if
tcp_fast_path_check succeeds.  When it fails (for example,
when our rcvbuf is used up), we will leave pred_flags with
an out-of-date snd_wnd value.

When the out-of-date pred_flags happens to match the next incoming
packet we will again hit the fast path and use the current snd_wnd
which will be wrong.

In the case of the treason messages, it just happens that the snd_wnd
cached in pred_flags is zero while tp->snd_wnd is non-zero.  Therefore
when a zero-window packet comes in we incorrectly conclude that the
window is non-zero.

In fact if the peer continues to send us zero-window pure ACKs we
will continue making the same mistake.  It's only when the peer
transmits a zero-window packet with data attached that we get a
chance to snap out of it.  This is what triggers the treason
message at the next retransmit timeout.

72ab373a56 [PATCH] Yet more posix-cpu-timer fixes
This just makes sure that a thread's expiry times can't get reset after
it clears them in do_exit.

This is what allowed us to re-introduce the stricter BUG_ON() check in
a362f463a6.

a362f463a6 Revert "remove false BUG_ON() from run_posix_cpu_timers()"
This reverts commit 3de463c7d9.

Roland has another patch that allows us to leave the BUG_ON() in place
by just making sure that the condition it tests for really is always
true.

That goes in next.

7a4ed937aa [PATCH] Fix cpu timers expiration time
There's a silly off-by-one error in the code that updates the expiration
of posix CPU timers, causing them to not be properly updated when they
hit exactly on their expiration time (which should be the normal case).

This causes them to then fire immediately again, and only _then_ get
properly updated.
