      "message": "[PATCH] Fix filp being passed through raw ioctl handler\n\nDon\u0027t pass meaningless file handles to block device ioctls.\n\nThe recent raw IO ioctl-passthrough fix started passing the raw file\nhandle into the block device ioctl handler.  That\u0027s unlikely to be\nuseful, as the file handle is actually open on a character-mode raw\ndevice, not a block device, so dereferencing it is not going to yield\nuseful results to a block device ioctl handler.\n\nPreviously we just passed NULL; also not a value that can usefully\nbe dereferenced, but at least if it does happen, we\u0027ll oops instead of\nsilently pretending that the file is a block device, so NULL is the more\ndefensive option here.  This patch reverts to that behaviour.\n\nNoticed by Al Viro.\n\nSigned-off-by: Stephen Tweedie \u003csct@redhat.com\u003e\nAcked-by: Al Viro \u003cviro@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"

      "message": "[PATCH] Fix root hole in raw device\n\n[Patch] Fix raw device ioctl pass-through\n\nRaw character devices are supposed to pass ioctls through to the block\ndevices they are bound to.  Unfortunately, they are using the wrong\nfunction for this: ioctl_by_bdev(), instead of blkdev_ioctl().\n\nioctl_by_bdev() performs a set_fs(KERNEL_DS) before calling the ioctl,\nredirecting the user-space buffer access to the kernel address space.\nThis is, needless to say, a bad thing.\n\nThis was noticed first on s390, where raw IO was non-functioning.  The\ns390 driver config does not actually allow raw IO to be enabled, which\nwas the first part of the problem.  Secondly, the s390 kernel address\nspace is distinct from user, causing legal raw ioctls to fail.  I\u0027ve\nreproduced this on a kernel built with 4G:4G split on x86, which fails\nin the same way (-EFAULT if the address does not exist kernel-side;\nreturns success without actually populating the user buffer if it does.)\n\nThe patch below fixes both the config and address-space problems.  It\u0027s\nbased closely on a patch by Jan Glauber \u003cjang@de.ibm.com\u003e, which has\nbeen tested on s390 at IBM.  I\u0027ve tested it on x86 4G:4G (split address\nspace) and x86_64 (common address space).\n\nKernel-address-space access has been assigned CAN-2005-1264.\n\nSigned-off-by: Stephen Tweedie \u003csct@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Dave Jones \u003cdavej@redhat.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman \u003cgregkh@suse.de\u003e\n"
