I think you missed the point here. The problem is that if the copied
string is shorter than the destination buffer, part of the old contents of
the destination remains unchanged and might be leaked to userspace. This
behaviour IS fixed in 2.6, so upstream thinks it IS a (small) problem [1].

BTW, I found a patch for ppc64 and s390 [2].

[kernel 2.6.8-1-686-smp 2.6.8-10] HANG : syslog ?

2005-01-17 Thread Christian SENET
using pre-packaged (without any modifications/recompilation):
 kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686-smp  (2.6.8-10)
(initrd boot)
on:
DELL POWEREDGE 2650  with two  Intel Xeon HT
debian sources :
deb http://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free

modules explicitly listed (/etc/modules) with 2.6 kernel:
ide-cd
ide-generic
sd_mod

mousedev
BEHAVIOR:
system boots fine, but leads to daily hang !  seems to append 
at syslog restart ?   :-(

we log another "internal service" event each minute (very fine to see HERE 
if event log works or not) ... at 6:28 the event log stops (no more event 
logged) ... and system remains in a hang state (Ctrl-Alt-Suppr don't work 
anymore (as other ALt-F1, ...) ... Hardware POWER OFF is needed to reboot !

STORY:
1) we used a 2.4.24 tailorized kernel since 1 year without Pb (and ... 
without recent updates)
2) "dselect update + install" at end december; (no kernel change: same 
2.4.24 tailorized kernel be used)
3) system hang at Jan 2, 2005 ... seems to be at 6:28 (no more syslog 
events logged) ==> reboot: OK for this week ...
4) but: we decide to install (Jan 8, 2005) a new 2.6 kernel

end of syslog.4 (normal):
Jan  9 06:24:01 zeus /USR/SBIN/CRON[6814]: (root) CMD 
(/users/local/EVAL_TOP_CLEAN > /dev/null 2>&1)

Jan  9 06:28:02 zeus /USR/SBIN/CRON[7108]: (root) CMD 
(/users/local/EVAL_TOP_CLEAN > /dev/null 2>&1)

begin of syslog.3 (normal + hang: no additional logs after):
Jan  9 06:28:18 zeus syslogd 1.4.1#16: restart.
Jan  9 06:28:21 zeus dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 19.48.208.193 from

via eth0
==> no more "each minute" cron'ed EVAL_TOP_CLEAN event now after the 
DHCPPACK last line !

==> server doesn't react to Ctrl-Alt-Suppr  + no console access  seems 
hang'ed ... server harware-power-off-reboot at Jan 10 09:20

end of syslog.3 (normal):

Jan 11 06:28:01 zeus /USR/SBIN/CRON[20610]: (root) CMD 
(/users/local/EVAL_TOP_CLEAN > /dev/null 2>&1)

begin of syslog.2 (2 first lines - abnormal):
Jan 11 06:28:19 zeus syslogd 1.4.1#16: restart. < last event logged 
by syslog ... no more events after !!!
Jan 11 08:50:40 zeus syslogd 1.4.1#16: restart. < this line because 
server was  rebooted (with PREVIOUS KERNEL to avoid future daily hangs)  

==> no more "each minute" cron'ed EVAL_TOP_CLEAN event log
==> server doesn't react to Ctrl-Alt-Suppr + no console access nor 
swintching (alt F1, F2 , ...)  seems hang'ed ... server rebooted Jan 11 
08:50:40 (see before) with previous kernel version to ensure continuous 
service (we hope !)

Any suggestion ? help ? could thes hnag be related to ACPI ?

Bug#280571: This prevents use of root=/dev/other-vg/root

2005-01-17 Thread Russell Coker
Generally we want to support as many possibilities for configuring a system as 
possible, both for regular use and system recovery.

Using an initrd with a root file system on a VG other than the one that the 
initrd was created for should work.  With the current mkinitrd script it does 
not.

This means that using a different volume group name (which you might do if you 
purchased a new hard disk and want to copy the data across while keeping your 
old disk usable in case the new hardware dies) is really inconvenient (I had 
to unpack the initrd image, edit a file, and then create a new image).

I think that a better solution is to enable RAID-0 and RAID-1 in the initrd.  
Debian's initrd is hugely bloated anyway, avoiding a RAID-1 module is not the 
way to keep the size down - there are other things that can be done to 
significantly decrease the size of the initrd.

Bug#290925: kernel-source-2.6.10: Blank Screen When Using intelfb Module

2005-01-17 Thread Georg Wittenburg
Package: kernel-source-2.6.10
Version: 2.6.10-3
Severity: normal


When the intelfb module is compiled into the kernel all consoles remain
blank until the X server starts up. Using it as a module is not an
option for non-CRT screens (see
http://www.xfree86.org/~dawes/intelfb.html, which I'm assuming not to be
outdated on this issue). This makes the driver unusable for laptops.

The initialization seems to be OK (from dmesg):

Linux agpgart interface v0.100 (c) Dave Jones
agpgart: Detected an Intel 830M Chipset.
agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 202M
agpgart: Detected 892K stolen memory.
agpgart: AGP aperture is 128M @ 0xe800
intelfb: Framebuffer driver for Intel(R) 830M/845G/852GM/855GM/865G

intelfb: Version 0.9.2
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKA] enabled at IRQ 9
PCI: setting IRQ 9 as level-triggered

intelfb: 00:02.0: Intel(R) 830M, aperture size 128MB, stolen memory
892kB
intelfb: Non-CRT device is enabled ( DVO port B ).  Disabling mode
switching.
intelfb: Initial video mode is [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I was unable to try vesa modes with a higher resolution than vga=0x311
as my BIOS doesn't support these values.

This problem is similar to bug #289810, but I doubt that is directly
related as vesafb doesn't figure into this particular configuration.

Thanks for looking into this.

Bug#281912: Still Present in 2.6.10

2005-01-17 Thread Georg Wittenburg
Hello!

Just a quick note that this bug is still present in 2.6.10, and hence this 
report should be moved over to that package.

Thanks again.

Bug#290958: Doesn't export the necessary info to let udev create /dev/{raw,video}1394

2005-01-17 Thread Sjoerd Simons
Package: kernel-source-2.6.8
Severity: normal

Hi,

  For udev to create device it needs some information in /sys about the major
  and minor numbers. Both the raw1394 and video1394 modules don't do this, so 
  the devices aren't created automagically.

  (Bug filed on  Sven Luther's request)

Bug#290964: kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686: ifdown freezes: unregister_netdevice: waiting for ... to become free

2005-01-17 Thread Jukka Suomela
Package: kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686
Version: 2.6.10-3
Severity: normal

With the 2.6.10-1-686 kernel, "ifdown -a" freezes. After a while
kernel starts logging messages such as:

unregister_netdevice: waiting for tunnel0 to become free.
Usage count = 1

(Above "tunnel0" is an IPv6-in-IPv4 tunneling device.)

The same setup works fine with the current 2.6.8-2-686 kernel package,
and it has worked with earlier kernels, too.

Curiously enough, something IS setting a 32kbyte limit on locked memory even
on the emergency shell (i.e. these limits are active during the early boot
sequence).  That caused the segfault, as the above patches were enforcing
that limit.  I am pretty sure I have not asked for such a draconian limit
anywhere (and all greps I could think of seem to agree with me) -- and such
a limit is cleary something we would be better off without at the early boot
sequence.  

I will see if I can track down the culprit to make sure it is something
stupid *I* did, as opposed to something higly stupid sysv-init or the kernel
itself is doing, and file bugs accordingly depending on what I find.

Anyway, apparently such limit enforcement is considered a bug (regardless of
the fact that there should be no limit to be enforced in the first place),
and Herbert Xu sent me a patch that fixes the issue.  Thanks, Herbert!
Maybe that patch should make it to the SVN tree?

PS: Herbert, my provider seems to have screwed up again, and my static IP is
being blacklisted by your server, so my replies to you were probably
discarded.

The merge thing doesn't work well with the way we
have multiple source packages for the kernel. 

It seems that this problem actually effects the following
source packages.

kernel-image-2.6.10-alpha-2.6.10
kernel-image-2.6.10-ia64-2.6.10
kernel-image-2.6.9-amd64-2.6.9
kernel-image-2.6.9-ia64-2.6.9
kernel-image-2.6.9-sparc-2.6.9
kernel-patch-2.6.10-mips-2.6.10
kernel-patch-powerpc-2.6.10-2.6.10
kernel-patch-powerpc-2.6.9-2.6.9

Would it be of value to duplicate, say #283852,
assign one copy to each of these source packages,
and then merge #283852 with #284952 on one package,
say kernel-patch-powerpc-2.6.9-2.6.9, where
at one of the bugs originated.

Also, sould I go through and fix the config
in svn, even though I can't build for any of these
architectures?

I wonder about this, would it not be enough to blacklist the UB generated
modules in hotplug and/or discover ?

Bug#290540: ibm thinkpad resume keyboard corruption

2005-01-17 Thread Michael Stroucken
Hello,
   I see the same when I resume from sleep on my 2887 R51 when I touch 
the keyboard while it's coming up. If I don't touch the keyboard until 
it is fully up, I have no problems.

BTW, are you sure that ACPI doesn't work? If the screen is blank on 
resume, try using ACPI but put "acpi_sleep=s3_bios" on the kernel 
command line. That brings up video correctly on mine.

Greetings,
Michael.

According to Paul van Tilburg, in Bug#284952 this does not help.
Though he didn't expand on why.

hlh has already mentioned that we need to walk away from
the modular fb code, for reasuns such as this. I am not
sure what unplesant side effects that is going to 
have in relation to mkinitrd and the debian installer.
But perhaps 2.6.10 would be a good place to start the
rollback.

Ah, i also have some second-thoughts about this, since we cannot know exactly
how the user is loading the modules. I will disable it in the ppc 2.6.9/2.6.10
kernels.

Horms - in general you are welcome to modify the ia64 configs; though
you can also just dup a bug & I can handle it before my next upload.
I've gone ahead and fixed this one in svn.

fyi, the current state of the art for ia64 config handling is to just
modify the itanium config & execute the sync_configs target in
debian/rules.
