It is merged into Linus' tree now:
http://www2.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=b61901024776b25ce7b8edc31bb1757c7382a88e
... The only difference is that the changeset in Linus' tree also changes some
whitespace.
Please merge this into 2.6.18.y, 2.6.19.y and 2.6.20.y
Adrian, this should also apply against 2.6.16.y

dvbdev: fix illegal re-usage of fileoperations struct
From: Marcel Siegert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Arjan van de Ven <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> reported an illegal re-usage of the
fileoperations struct
if more than one dvb device(e.g. frontend) is present. this patch fixes this
issue.
it allocates a new fileoperations struct each time a device is registered and
copies the default
template fileops.

Normally, I would wait for a patch to appear in Linus' tree before I send it to
-stable,
however, this patch can not wait. Since 2.6.18-stable and 2.6.19-stable have
their last
releases pending review, it is imperative that this final patch be added to the
queue, if
possible.
This patch was recently submitted, and fixes many horrible, previously
unexplained bugs of the
past.
Please queue this for the final 2.6.18 and 2.6.19 -stable releases, as well as
for 2.6.20.1

Actually, I have a few more -stable patches for both 2.6.18.y and 2.6.19.y, if you don't mind holding off a day or two (wont have time to prepare these until tomorrow evening)... One of them is a security fix, that allows a non-root user to hang the kernel given the correct circumstances. Ok, that's serious enough :) I'll wait for your patches. thanks, greg k-h I've uploaded the remaining pending v4l/dvb -stable patches for both 2.6.18.y and 2.6.19.y to the following locations: http://linuxtv.org/~mkrufky/stable/2.6.18.y/ (8 patches) and http://linuxtv.org/~mkrufky/stable/2.6.19.y/ (5 patches) Using the mailer at my current location, I am unable to send patches inline, and I won't have the time for it this evening. In the interest of saving time, I figured that sending them to you in this method is good enough. If you still need for me to send them via email inline, please let me know. Greg Chris, I haven't heard from either of you about these patches, nor have I seen any update to the stable-queue. Just for clarification, the security fix patch, that prevents a non-root user from hanging the kernel is the patch entitled, V4L: buf_qbuf: fix videobuf_queue-stream corruption and lockup ...as per Mauro's description, here: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org/msg113820.html Thanks, I'll be flushing out the stable queue later on tonight and will pick up all of these patches. greg k-h - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe linux-kernel in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
