commit 6ce377afd1755eae5c93410ca9a1121dfead7b87 upstream.

Commit 4439647 ("xfs: reset buffer pointers before freeing them") in
3.0-rc1 introduced a regression when recovering log buffers that
wrapped around the end of log. The second part of the log buffer at
the start of the physical log was being read into the header buffer
rather than the data buffer, and hence recovery was seeing garbage
in the data buffer when it got to the region of the log buffer that
was incorrectly read.

<title>NFS: fix bug in legacy DNS resolver.</title>

commit 8d96b10639fb402357b75b055b1e82a65ff95050 upstream.

The DNS resolver's use of the sunrpc cache involves a 'ttl' number
(relative) rather that a timeout (absolute).  This confused me when
I wrote
  commit c5b29f885afe890f953f7f23424045cdad31d3e4
     "sunrpc: use seconds since boot in expiry cache"

and I managed to break it.  The effect is that any TTL is interpreted
as 0, and nothing useful gets into the cache.

This patch removes the use of get_expiry() - which really expects an
expiry time - and uses get_uint() instead, treating the int correctly
as a ttl.

This fixes a regression that has been present since 2.6.37, causing
certain NFS accesses in certain environments to incorrectly fail.

I don't think there's a practical difference for the range of values
these interfaces should see, but it would be safer to be unambiguous.

<title>nfs: Show original device name verbatim in /proc/*/mount{s,info}</title>

commit 97a54868262da1629a3e65121e65b8e8c4419d9f upstream.

Since commit c7f404b ('vfs: new superblock methods to override
/proc/*/mount{s,info}'), nfs_path() is used to generate the mounted
device name reported back to userland.

nfs_path() always generates a trailing slash when the given dentry is
the root of an NFS mount, but userland may expect the original device
name to be returned verbatim (as it used to be).  Make this
canonicalisation optional and change the callers accordingly.

commit 97a54868262da1629a3e65121e65b8e8c4419d9f upstream.

Since commit c7f404b ('vfs: new superblock methods to override
/proc/*/mount{s,info}'), nfs_path() is used to generate the mounted
device name reported back to userland.

nfs_path() always generates a trailing slash when the given dentry is
the root of an NFS mount, but userland may expect the original device
name to be returned verbatim (as it used to be).  Make this
canonicalisation optional and change the callers accordingly.

<title>nfsv3: Make v3 mounts fail with ETIMEDOUTs instead EIO on mountd timeouts</title>

commit acce94e68a0f346115fd41cdc298197d2d5a59ad upstream.

In very busy v3 environment, rpc.mountd can respond to the NULL
procedure but not the MNT procedure in a timely manner causing
the MNT procedure to time out. The problem is the mount system
call returns EIO which causes the mount to fail, instead of
ETIMEDOUT, which would cause the mount to be retried.

This patch sets the RPC_TASK_SOFT|RPC_TASK_TIMEOUT flags to
the rpc_call_sync() call in nfs_mount() which causes
ETIMEDOUT to be returned on timed out connections.

<title>sysfs: sysfs_pathname/sysfs_add_one: Use strlcat() instead of strcat()</title>

commit 66081a72517a131430dcf986775f3268aafcb546 upstream.

The warning check for duplicate sysfs entries can cause a buffer overflow
when printing the warning, as strcat() doesn't check buffer sizes.
Use strlcat() instead.

Since strlcat() doesn't return a pointer to the passed buffer, unlike
strcat(), I had to convert the nested concatenation in sysfs_add_one() to
an admittedly more obscure comma operator construct, to avoid emitting code
for the concatenation if CONFIG_BUG is disabled.

<title>fs/compat_ioctl.c: VIDEO_SET_SPU_PALETTE missing error check</title>

commit 12176503366885edd542389eed3aaf94be163fdb upstream.

The compat ioctl for VIDEO_SET_SPU_PALETTE was missing an error check
while converting ioctl arguments.  This could lead to leaking kernel
stack contents into userspace.

Patch extracted from existing fix in grsecurity.

This reverts 12d63702c53bc2230dfc997e91ca891f39cb6446 which was commit
303a7ce92064c285a04c870f2dc0192fdb2968cb upstream.

Taking hostname from uts namespace if not safe, because this cuold be
performind during umount operation on child reaper death. And in this case
current-&gt;nsproxy is NULL already.
