In commit 800179c9b8a1 ("This adds symlink and hardlink restrictions to
the Linux VFS"), the new link protections were enabled by default, in
the hope that no actual application would care, despite it being
technically against legacy UNIX (and documented POSIX) behavior.However, it does turn out to break some applications. It's rare, and
it's unfortunate, but it's unacceptable to break existing systems, so
we'll have to default to legacy behavior.In particular, it has broken the way AFD distributes files, see
http://www.dwd.de/AFD/
along with some legacy scripts.
Distributions can end up setting this at initrd time or in system
scripts: if you have security problems due to link attacks during your
early boot sequence, you have bigger problems than some kernel sysctl
setting. Do:echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks
echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinksto re-enable the link protections.
Alternatively, we may at some point introduce a kernel config option
that sets these kinds of "more secure but not traditional" behavioural
options automatically.Reported-by: Nick Bowler

Decode multitouch reports from the touch sensor of the Cintiq 24HD
touch.Signed-off-by: Jason Gerecke
Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov
Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds -
Like our other pen-and-touch products, the Cintiq 24HD touch needs data
to be shared between its two sensors to facilitate proximity-based palm
rejection.Unlike other tablets that report sensor data through separate interfaces
of the same USB device, the Cintiq 24HD touch has separate USB devices
that are connected to an internal USB hub.This patch makes it possible to designate the USB VID/PID of the other
device so that the two may share data. To ensure we don't accidentally
link to a sensor from a physically separate device (if several have been
plugged in), we limit the search to siblings (i.e., devices directly
connected to the same hub).Signed-off-by: Jason Gerecke

If one includes documentation for an external tool, it should be
correct. This is not:1. Overriding the input to rngd should typically be neither
necessary nor desired. This is especially so since newer
versions of rngd support a number of different *types* of sources.
2. The default kernel-exported device is called /dev/hwrng not
/dev/hwrandom nor /dev/hw_random (both of which were used in the
past; however, kernel and udev seem to have converged on
/dev/hwrng.)Overall it is better if the documentation for rngd is kept with rngd
rather than in a kernel Makefile.Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin

'struct pid' is a "variable sized struct" - a header with an array of
upids at the end.The size of the array depends on a level (depth) of pid namespaces. Now a
level of pidns is not limited, so 'struct pid' can be more than one page.Looks reasonable, that it should be less than a page. MAX_PIS_NS_LEVEL is
not calculated from PAGE_SIZE, because in this case it depends on
architectures, config options and it will be reduced, if someone adds a
new fields in struct pid or struct upid.I suggest to set MAX_PIS_NS_LEVEL = 32, because it saves ability to expand
"struct pid" and it's more than enough for all known for me use-cases.
When someone finds a reasonable use case, we can add a config option or a
sysctl parameter.In addition it will reduce the effect of another problem, when we have
many nested namespaces and the oldest one starts dying.
zap_pid_ns_processe will be called for each namespace and find_vpid will
be called for each process in a namespace. find_vpid will be called
minimum max_level^2 / 2 times. The reason of that is that when we found a
bit in pidmap, we can't determine this pidns is top for this process or it
isn't.vpid is a heavy operation, so a fork bomb, which create many nested
namespace, can make a system inaccessible for a long time. For example my
system becomes inaccessible for a few minutes with 4000 processes.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: return -EINVAL in response to excessive nesting, not -ENOMEM]

Synopsys DesignWare AHB DMA controller. Starting from 2.6.38, access to
the device's i/o memory was done with the little-endian readl/writel

While allocating mmu_notifier with parameter GFP_KERNEL, swap would start
to work in case of tight available memory. Eventually, that would lead to
a deadlock while the swap deamon swaps anonymous pages. It was caused by
commit e0f3c3f78da29b ("mm/mmu_notifier: init notifier if necessary").=================================

rb_erase_augmented() is a static function annotated with
__always_inline. This causes a compile failure when attempting to use
the rbtree implementation as a library (e.g. kvm tool):rbtree_augmented.h:125:24: error: expected `=', `,', `;', `asm' or `__attribute__' before `void'
Include linux/compiler.h in rbtree_augmented.h so that the __always_inline

The genalloc code uses the bitmap API from include/linux/bitmap.h and
lib/bitmap.c, which is based on long values. Both bitmap_set from
lib/bitmap.c and bitmap_set_ll, which is the lockless version from
genalloc.c, use BITMAP_LAST_WORD_MASK to set the first bits in a long in
the bitmap.That one uses (1 << bits) - 1, 0b111, if you are setting the first three
bits. This means that the API counts from the least significant bits
(LSB from now on) to the MSB. The LSB in the first long is bit 0, then.
The same works for the lookup functions.The genalloc code uses longs for the bitmap, as it should. In
include/linux/genalloc.h, struct gen_pool_chunk has unsigned long
bits[0] as its last member. When allocating the struct, genalloc should
reserve enough space for the bitmap. This should be a proper number of
longs that can fit the amount of bits in the bitmap.However, genalloc allocates an integer number of bytes that fit the
amount of bits, but may not be an integer amount of longs. 9 bytes, for
example, could be allocated for 70 bits.This is a problem in itself if the Least Significat Bit in a long is in
the byte with the largest address, which happens in Big Endian machines.
This means genalloc is not allocating the byte in which it will try to
set or check for a bit.This may end up in memory corruption, where genalloc will try to set the
bits it has not allocated. In fact, genalloc may not set these bits
because it may find them already set, because they were not zeroed since
they were not allocated. And that's what causes a BUG when
gen_pool_destroy is called and check for any set bits.What really happens is that genalloc uses kmalloc_node with __GFP_ZERO
on gen_pool_add_virt. With SLAB and SLUB, this means the whole slab
will be cleared, not only the requested bytes. Since struct
gen_pool_chunk has a size that is a multiple of 8, and slab sizes are
multiples of 8, we get lucky and allocate and clear the right amount of
bytes.Hower, this is not the case with SLOB or with older code that did memset
after allocating instead of using __GFP_ZERO.So, a simple module as this (running 3.6.0), will cause a crash when
