[PATCH] softmac: fix SIOCSIWAP

There are some bugs in the current implementation of the SIOCSIWAP wext,
for example that when you do it twice and it fails, it may still try
another access point for some reason. This patch fixes this by introducing
a new flag that tells the association code that the bssid that is in use
was fixed by the user and shouldn't be deviated from.

18 years ago[PATCH] add migratepage address space op to shmem
Lee Schermerhorn [Sat, 22 Apr 2006 09:35:48 +0000 (02:35 -0700)]
[PATCH] add migratepage address space op to shmem

Basic problem: pages of a shared memory segment can only be migrated once.

In 2.6.16 through 2.6.17-rc1, shared memory mappings do not have a
migratepage address space op.  Therefore, migrate_pages() falls back to
default processing.  In this path, it will try to pageout() dirty pages.
Once a shared memory page has been migrated it becomes dirty, so
migrate_pages() will try to page it out.  However, because the page count
is 3 [cache + current + pte], pageout() will return PAGE_KEEP because
is_page_cache_freeable() returns false.  This will abort all subsequent
migrations.

This patch adds a migratepage address space op to shared memory segments to
avoid taking the default path.  We use the "migrate_page()" function
because it knows how to migrate dirty pages.  This allows shared memory
segment pages to migrate, subject to other conditions such as # pte's
referencing the page [page_mapcount(page)], when requested.

I think this is safe.  If we're migrating a shared memory page, then we
found the page via a page table, so it must be in memory.

Can be verified with memtoy and the shmem-mbind-test script, both
available at:  http://free.linux.hp.com/~lts/Tools/

Andi Kleen [Thu, 20 Apr 2006 00:36:45 +0000 (02:36 +0200)]
[PATCH] i386/x86-64: Fix x87 information leak between processes

AMD K7/K8 CPUs only save/restore the FOP/FIP/FDP x87 registers in FXSAVE
when an exception is pending.  This means the value leak through
context switches and allow processes to observe some x87 instruction
state of other processes.

This was actually documented by AMD, but nobody recognized it as
being different from Intel before.

The fix first adds an optimization: instead of unconditionally
calling FNCLEX after each FXSAVE test if ES is pending and skip
it when not needed. Then do a x87 load from a kernel variable to
clear FOP/FIP/FDP.

This means other processes always will only see a constant value
defined by the kernel in their FP state.

I took some pain to make sure to chose a variable that's already
in L1 during context switch to make the overhead of this low.

Also alternative() is used to patch away the new code on CPUs
who don't need it.

Patch for both i386/x86-64.

The problem was discovered originally by Jan Beulich. Richard
Brunner provided the basic code for the workarounds, with contribution
from Jan.

This is CVE-2006-1056

parameter.  Add a quick how-to on doing it on the fly.
