2006-03-17[PATCH] dm stripe: Fix boundsKevin Corry
The dm-stripe target currently does not enforce that the size of a stripe device be a multiple of the chunk-size. Under certain conditions, this can lead to I/O requests going off the end of an underlying device. This test-case shows one example. echo "0 100 linear /dev/hdb1 0" | dmsetup create linear0 echo "0 100 linear /dev/hdb1 100" | dmsetup create linear1 echo "0 200 striped 2 32 /dev/mapper/linear0 0 /dev/mapper/linear1 0" | \ dmsetup create stripe0 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/stripe0 bs=1k This will produce the output: dd: writing '/dev/mapper/stripe0': Input/output error 97+0 records in 96+0 records out And in the kernel log will be: attempt to access beyond end of device dm-0: rw=0, want=104, limit=100 The patch will check that the table size is a multiple of the stripe chunk-size when the table is created, which will prevent the above striped device from being created. This should not affect tools like LVM or EVMS, since in all the cases I can think of, striped devices are always created with the sizes being a multiple of the chunk-size. The size of a stripe device must be a multiple of its chunk-size. (akpm: that typecast is quite gratuitous) Signed-off-by: Kevin Corry <kevcorry@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <agk@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Olaf Hering reported a problem on pseries with e100 where ethtool -t would cause a bus error, and the e100 driver would stop working. Due to the new load ucode command the cb list must be allocated before calling e100_init_hw, so remove the call and just let e100_up take care of it.

2006-03-14[PATCH] EDAC: disable sysfs interfaceDave Peterson
- Disable the EDAC sysfs code. The sysfs interface that EDAC presents to user space needs more thought, and is likely to change substantially. Therefore disable it for now so users don't start depending on it in its current form. - Disable the default behavior of calling panic() when an uncorrectible error is detected (since for now, there is no sysfs interface that allows the user to configure this behavior).

This patch fixes an error in the dl2k driver's DMA mapping/unmapping. The adapter uses the upper 16bits of the DMA address for the buffer size. However, this is not masked off when referencing the DMA address, and can lead to errors by trying to free a DMA address out of range.
