[PATCH] Fix ptrace/strace

2006-01-31T06:42:30Z

Don't clobber register %l0 while checking TI_SYS_NOERROR value in syscall return path. This bug was introduced by: db7d9a4eb700be766cc9f29241483dbb1e748832 Problem narrowed down by Luis F. Ortiz and Richard Mortimer. I tried using %l2 as suggested by Luis and that works for me. Looking at the code I wonder if it makes sense to simplify the code a little bit. The following works for me but I'm not sure how to exercise the "NOERROR" codepath. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Chris Wright Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[PATCH] setting irq affinity is broken in ia32 with MSI enabled

2006-01-31T06:42:30Z

Setting irq affinity stops working when MSI is enabled. With MSI, move_irq is empty, so we can't change irq affinity. It appears a typo in Ashok's original commit for this issue. X86_64 actually is using move_native_irq. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Chris Wright Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[PATCH] x86_64/i386: Compute correct MTRR mask on early Noconas

2005-11-24T22:10:11Z

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. CPUID workaround for steppings 0F33h(supporting x86) and 0F34h(supporting x86 and EM64T).

[PATCH] CVE-2005-2709 sysctl unregistration oops

2005-11-08T19:14:00Z

You could open the /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf// 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. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[PATCH] ppc64: Fix wrong register mapping in mpic driver

2005-10-26T17:39:43Z

The mpic interrupt controller driver (used on G5 and early pSeries among others) has a bug where it doesn't get the right virtual address for the timer registers. It causes the driver to poke at the MMIO space of whatever has been mapped just next to it (ouch !) when initializing and causes boot failures on some IBM machines.
