Hi all !
This is the seventh hotfix for kernel 2.4.31, which brings it to
the same fix level as 2.4.32-rc2. As usual, patches for 2.4.29
and 2.4.30 are also provided. There are just a few patches, one
minor security fix from Andrew restricting loadkeys usage to root
only, a memory ordering bug fix from Nick Piggin, a TCP window
clamping fix from Alexey blessed by Ion Badulescu, two IPVS fixes
from Julian Anastasov related to persistence, a few typos in mcast
and ax25 from Denis Lukianov and Ralf Baechle, and a netfilter
build fix for gcc-3.4.3 from Marcus Sundberg. Nothing that terrible,
but and upgrade is recommended.
The patch from 2.4.31-hf6 is small, so I append it to the end of
this mail after the change log for those how like to patch directly
from mbox.
Those who can easily upgrade to 2.4.32-rc* are encouraged to do
so, of course, to help testing the next release.
So, the new hotfixes are 2.4.31-hf7, 2.4.30-hf10 and 2.4.29-hf17.
Starting from 2.4.32-hf*, I will change the numbering scheme to
something which will make it easier for system admins to know
whether they are late or not. The idea is to reflect the head
version in the hot fix, to look like something such as this :
current version would become and evolve as
-----------------+------------------+---------------
2.4.31-hf7 2.4.31-hf31.7 2.4.31-hf32.1
2.4.30-hf10 2.4.30-hf31.7 2.4.30-hf32.1
2.4.29-hf17 2.4.29-hf31.7 2.4.29-hf32.1
and so on...
I know it makes the names longer, but knowing that 2.4.32-hf32.1
goes out makes it more obvious that your 2.4.29-hf31.4 is late
than 2.4.31-hf7 makes it "obvious" that 2.4.29-hf10 is late !
Comments and suggestions more than welcome !
As usual, everything is available for download there :
hotfixes home : http://linux.exosec.net/kernel/2.4-hf/
last version : http://linux.exosec.net/kernel/2.4-hf/LATEST/LATEST/
RSS feed : http://linux.exosec.net/kernel/hf.xml
build results : http://bugsplatter.mine.nu/test/linux-2.4/ (Grant's site)
I'm happily running 2.4.31-hf7 right now on athlon-SMP without any
trouble (yet), and it also perfectly runs on sparc64-SMP.
Regards,
Willy

Changelog from 2.4.31-hf6 to 2.4.31-hf7
---------------------------------------
'+' = added ; '-' = removed
+ 2.4.31-loadkeys-requires-root-1 (Andrew Morton)
[PATCH] loadkeys requires root priviledges
+ 2.4.31-possible-mem-ordering-bug-1 (Nick Piggin)
[PATCH] possible memory ordering bug in page reclaim
Is there anything that prevents PageDirty from theoretically being
speculatively loaded before page_count here? (see patch)
It would result in pagecache corruption.
+ 2.4.31-ax25-signed-char-bug-1 (Ralf Baechle)
[PATCH] AX.25: signed char bug
On architectures where the char type defaults to unsigned some of the
arithmetic in the AX.25 stack to fail, resulting in some packets being
dropped on receive. Credits for tracking this down and the original
patch to Bob Brose N0QBJ <linuxhams@n0qbj-11.ampr.org>.
+ 2.4.31-fix-jiffies-multiply-overflow-2 (Willy Tarreau)
The checks for multiply overflow in msecs_to_jiffies() are wrong and
limit maximum time to very low values because the check itself can
overflow. Those functions are not much used but select() and poll()
would benefit from them by eliminating divides and multiples in most
situations.
+ 2.4.31-ip_vs_ftp-persistence-breaks-connections-1 (Julian Anastasov)
[IPVS]: ip_vs_ftp breaks connections using persistence
ip_vs_ftp when loaded can create NAT connections with unknown client
port for passive FTP. For such expectations we lookup with cport=0
on incoming packet but it matches the format of the persistence
templates causing packets to other persistent virtual servers to
be forwarded to real server without creating connection. Later the
reply packets are treated as foreign and not SNAT-ed. This patch
changes the connection lookup for packets from clients:
+ 2.4.31-ipvs-invalidate-persistent-templates-1 (Julian Anastasov)
[IPVS]: really invalidate persistent templates
Agostino di Salle noticed that persistent templates are not
invalidated due to buggy optimization.
+ 2.4.31-mcast-exclude-typos-1 (Denis Lukianov)
[MCAST]: Fix MCAST_EXCLUDE line dupes
pmc->sfcount[MCAST_EXCLUDE] got initialized twice and [MCAST_INCLUDE]
did not get initialized.
+ 2.4.31-tcp_clamp_window-fix-1 (Alexey Kuznetsov)
[TCP]: Don't over-clamp window in tcp_clamp_window()
Handle better the case where the sender sends full sized frames
initially, then moves to a mode where it trickles out small amounts
of data at a time. This known problem is even mentioned in the
comments above tcp_grow_window() in tcp_input.c. Fix confirmed by
Ion Badulescu.
+ 2.4.31-netfilter-gcc-3.4.3-build-1 (Marcus Sundberg)
[NETFILTER]: this patch fixes a compilation issue with gcc 3.4.3.
Patch to upgrade 2.4.31-hf6 to 2.4.31-hf7.

I don't know if you have had many folks responding, but at least
one person (me) finds your efforts invaluable! Many thanks, and
please do keep it up!!!! Some systems (such those running my
Dad's law office) need to continue running 2.4 for some time yet
and your efforts at maintaining a no-new features security-fixed
stable series are very much appreciated. Thanks!
