Hi,
Coverity spotted a "use after free" bug in
drivers/char/agp/ati-agp.c::ati_create_gatt_pages().
The same one that was in
drivers/char/agp/amd-k7-agp.c::amd_create_gatt_pages()
The problem is this:
If "entry = kzalloc(sizeof(struct ati_page_map), GFP_KERNEL);"
fails, then there's a loop in the function to free all entries
allocated so far and break out of the allocation loop. That in itself
is pretty sane, but then the (now freed) 'tables' is assigned to
ati_generic_private.gatt_pages and 'retval' is set to -ENOMEM which
causes ati_free_gatt_pages(); to be called at the end of the function.
The problem with this is that ati_free_gatt_pages() will then loop
'ati_generic_private.num_tables' times and try to free each entry in
tables[] - this is bad since tables has already been freed and
furthermore it will call kfree(tables) at the end - a double free.
This patch removes the freeing loop in ati_create_gatt_pages() and
instead relies entirely on the call to ati_free_gatt_pages() to free
everything we allocated in case of an error. It also sets
ati_generic_private.num_tables to the actual number of entries
allocated instead of just using the value passed in from the caller -
this ensures that ati_free_gatt_pages() will only attempt to free
stuff that was actually allocated.
Note: I'm in no way intimate with this code and I have no way to
actually test this patch (besides compile test it), so while I've
tried to be careful in reading the code and make sure the patch
does the right thing an ACK from someone who actually knows the
code in-depth would be very much appreciated.

In order for this driver to be shared across the iop architectures the
iop3xx and iop13xx header files are modified to present a common interface
for the iop_wdt driver.
Details:
* iop13xx supports disabling the timer while iop3xx does not. This requires
a few 'compatibility' definitions in include/asm-arm/hardware/iop3xx.h to
preclude adding #ifdef CONFIG_ARCH_IOP13XX blocks to the driver code.
* The heartbeat interval is derived from the internal bus clock rate, so this
this patch also exports the tick rate to the iop_wdt driver.

This is a reimplementation of the zs driver for the serial subsystem. Any
resemblance to the old driver is purely coincidential. ;-) I do hope I got
the handling of modem lines right -- better do not tackle me about the
issue unless you feel too good...
Any users of the old driver: please note the numbers of the serial lines
have now been swapped, i.e. ttyS0 <-> ttyS1 and ttyS2 <-> ttyS3. It has
to do with the modem lines mentioned above; basically the port A in a given
chip has to be initialised before the port B if you want to use the latter
as the serial console (which is usually the case), as operations on modem
lines of the serial line associated with the port B access both ports (see
the comment at the top of the driver for the details of wiring used).
Please update your scripts.
This is also the reason each SCC now requests an IRQ once only (as seen in
"/proc/interrupts") -- the handler takes care of both ports at once as the
line associated with the port B has to take status update interrupts from
both ports (and yet the line of the port A takes its own for itself too).
The old driver never got it right...

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.
It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.
The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

We've been using the 'new locking' for a long time now so it seems
pointless keeping the old one around. Remove it and undo the macros it
uses back into real code for readability. Remove the bogus 'no termios
change' checks.

Lots of serial drivers check and optimise for setting the termios values to
the ones they were before. This is pointless and the check is wrong
anyway. Remove the checks on the serial drivers. If we ever do need such
a check put it back in the tty layer instead _once_!

Add TTY input auditing, used to audit system administrator's actions. This is
required by various security standards such as DCID 6/3 and PCI to provide
non-repudiation of administrator's actions and to allow a review of past
actions if the administrator seems to overstep their duties or if the system
becomes misconfigured for unknown reasons. These requirements do not make it
necessary to audit TTY output as well.
Compared to an user-space keylogger, this approach records TTY input using the
audit subsystem, correlated with other audit events, and it is completely
transparent to the user-space application (e.g. the console ioctls still
work).
TTY input auditing works on a higher level than auditing all system calls
within the session, which would produce an overwhelming amount of mostly
useless audit events.
Add an "audit_tty" attribute, inherited across fork (). Data read from TTYs
by process with the attribute is sent to the audit subsystem by the kernel.
The audit netlink interface is extended to allow modifying the audit_tty
attribute, and to allow sending explanatory audit events from user-space (for
example, a shell might send an event containing the final command, after the
interactive command-line editing and history expansion is performed, which
might be difficult to decipher from the TTY input alone).
Because the "audit_tty" attribute is inherited across fork (), it would be set
e.g. for sshd restarted within an audited session. To prevent this, the
audit_tty attribute is cleared when a process with no open TTY file
descriptors (e.g. after daemon startup) opens a TTY.
See https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-audit/2007-June/msg00000.html for a
more detailed rationale document for an older version of this patch.
