Staging: comedi: fix signal handling in read and write

2011-12-09T16:52:40+00:00

commit 6a9ce6b654e491981f6ef7e214cbd4f63e033848 upstream.

After sleeping on a wait queue, signal_pending(current) should be
checked (not before sleeping).

Staging: comedi: fix mmap_count

2011-12-09T16:52:40+00:00

commit df30b21cb0eed5ba8a8e0cdfeebc66ba8cde821d upstream.

In comedi_fops, mmap_count is decremented at comedi_vm_ops->close but
it is not incremented at comedi_vm_ops->open. This may result in a negative
counter.  The patch introduces the open method to keep the counter
consistent.

The bug was triggerd by this sample code:

        mmap(0, ...., comedi_fd);
        fork();
        exit(0);

staging: usbip: bugfix for deadlock

2011-12-09T16:52:39+00:00

commit 438957f8d4a84daa7fa5be6978ad5897a2e9e5e5 upstream.

Interrupts must be disabled prior to calling usb_hcd_unlink_urb_from_ep.
If interrupts are not disabled, it can potentially lead to a deadlock.
The deadlock is readily reproduceable on a slower (ARM based) device
such as the TI Pandaboard.

Staging: hv: Add support for >2 TB LUN in storage driver.

2011-11-11T17:35:14+00:00

commit cf55f4a8b6243b42fb91c56d1421db0d36d60f96 upstream.

If a LUN larger than 2 TB is attached to a Linux VM on Hyper-V, we currently
report a maximum size of 2 TB. This patch resolves the issue in hv_storvsc.
Thanks to Robert Scheck  for reporting the issue.

staging: quatech_usb2: Potential lost wakeup scenario in TIOCMIWAIT

2011-11-11T17:35:14+00:00

commit e8df1674d383d2ecc6efa8d7dba74c03aafdfdd7 upstream.

If the usermode app does an ioctl over this serial device  by
using TIOCMIWAIT, then the code will wait by setting the current
task state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and then calling schedule().
This will be woken up by the qt2_process_modem_status on URB
completion when the port_extra->shadowMSR is set to the new
modem status.

However, this could result in a lost wakeup scenario due to a race
in the logic in the qt2_ioctl(TIOCMIWAIT) loop and the URB completion
for new modem status in qt2_process_modem_status.
Due to this, the usermode app's task will continue to sleep despite a
change in the modem status.

staging: serqt_usb2: remove ssu100 from supported devices

2011-11-11T17:35:13+00:00

commit 7cbf3c7cd59288fb5e9f31815c74773549668d43 upstream.

The serqt_usb2 driver will not work properly with the ssu100 device
even though it claims to support it.  The ssu100 is supported by the
ssu100 driver in mainline so there is no need to have it claimed by
serqt_usb2.

net: Audit drivers to identify those needing IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING cleared

2011-08-16T01:31:38+00:00

[ Upstream commit 550fd08c2cebad61c548def135f67aba284c6162 ]

After the last patch, We are left in a state in which only drivers calling
ether_setup have IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING set (we assume that drivers touching real
hardware call ether_setup for their net_devices and don't hold any state in
their skbs.  There are a handful of drivers that violate this assumption of
course, and need to be fixed up.  This patch identifies those drivers, and marks
them as not being able to support the safe transmission of skbs by clearning the
IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING flag in priv_flags
