Subject: [PATCH 0/3] TPM: CVE patch, close a race, atomic cleanup
Date: Tue,  6 Dec 2011 11:29:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1323196162-2717-1-git-send-email-tim.gardner@canonical.com> (raw)

This patch series fixes an oversight in the implementation
of CVE-2011-1162 introduced by 3321c07ae5068568cd61ac9f4ba749006a7185c9,
corrects a race between readers and writers, and cleans up the
use of an unnecessary atomic variable.

Tim Gardner (3):
  TPM: Zero buffer whole after copying to userspace
  TPM: Close data_pending and data_buffer races
  TPM: data_pending is no longer atomic
