commit 03f1d4c1 upstream. If a VCPU was originally started with power off (typically to be brought up by PSCI in SMP configurations), there is no need to clear the POWER_OFF flag in the kernel, as this flag is only tested during the init ioctl itself. Acked-by:

commit 849260c7 upstream. Readonly memslots are often used to implement emulation of ROMs and NOR flashes, in which case the guest may legally map these regions as uncached. To deal with the incoherency associated with uncached guest mappings, treat all readonly memslots as incoherent, and ensure that pages that belong to regions tagged as such are flushed to DRAM before being passed to the guest.

commit 840f4bfb upstream. To allow handling of incoherent memslots in a subsequent patch, this patch adds a paramater 'ipa_uncached' to cache_coherent_guest_page() so that we can instruct it to flush the page's contents to DRAM even if the guest has caching globally enabled. Signed-off-by:

commit 1050dcda upstream. Memory regions may be incoherent with the caches, typically when the guest has mapped a host system RAM backed memory region as uncached. Add a flag KVM_MEMSLOT_INCOHERENT so that we can tag these memslots and handle them appropriately when mapping them. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 9ab3b598 ] A race condition starts to be visible in recent mmotm, where a PG_hwpoison flag is set on a migration source page *before* it's back in buddy page poo= l. This is problematic because no page flag is supposed to be set when freeing (see __free_one_page().) So the user-visible effect of this race is that it could trigger the BUG_ON() when soft-offlining is called. The root cause is that we call lru_add_drain_all() to make sure that the page is in buddy, but that doesn't work because this function just schedule= s a work item and doesn't wait its completion. drain_all_pages() does drainin= g directly, so simply dropping lru_add_drain_all() solves this problem.

Register MIDR_EL1 is masked to get variant and revision fields, then compared against midr_range_min and midr_range_max when checking whether CPU is affected by any particular erratum. However, variant and revision fields in MIDR_EL1 are separated by 16 bits, so the min and max of midr range should be constructed accordingly, otherwise the patch will not be applied when variant field is non-0.

When running a compat (AArch32) userspace on Cortex-A53, a load at EL0 from a virtual address that matches the bottom 32 bits of the virtual address used by a recent load at (AArch64) EL1 might return incorrect data. This patch works around the issue by writing to the contextidr_el1 register on the exception return path when returning to a 32-bit task. This workaround is patched in at runtime based on the MIDR value of the processor. Reviewed-by:

Not all of the errata we have workarounds for apply necessarily to all SoCs, so people compiling a kernel for one very specific SoC may not need to patch the kernel. Introduce a new submenu in the "Platform selection" menu to allow people to turn off certain bugs if they are not affected. By default all of them are enabled. Normal users or distribution kernels shouldn't bother to deselect any bugs here, since the alternatives framework will take care of patching them in only if needed. Signed-off-by:

After each CPU has been started, we iterate through a list of CPU features or bugs to detect CPUs which need (or could benefit from) kernel code patches. For each feature/bug there is a function which checks if that particular CPU is affected. We will later provide some more generic functions for common things like testing for certain MIDR ranges. We do this for every CPU to cover big.LITTLE systems properly as well. If a certain feature/bug has been detected, the capability bit will be set, so that later the call to apply_alternatives() will trigger the actual code patching. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 7a1e890e ] cdc_ncm disagrees with usbnet about how much framing overhead should be counted in the tx_bytes statistics, and tries 'fix' this by decrementing tx_bytes on the transmit path. But statistics must never be decremented except due to roll-over; this will thoroughly confuse user-space. Also, tx_bytes is only incremented by usbnet in the completion path. Fix this by requiring drivers that set FLAG_MULTI_FRAME to set a tx_bytes delta along with the tx_packets count.

This switches the driver into using atomic assignments instead of the spinlock mechanisms previously employed. Based on initial patch from Yuval Mintz & Ariel Elior I basically added softirq starvation avoidance, and mixture of atomic operations, plain writes and barriers. Note this slightly reduces the overhead for this driver when no busy_poll sockets are in use. Fixes: 9a2620c8 ("bnx2x: prevent WARN during driver unload") Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit f60e5990 ] We should not consult skb->sk for output decisions in xmit recursion levels > 0 in the stack. Otherwise local socket settings could influence the result of e.g. tunnel encapsulation process. ipv6 does not conform with this in three places: 1) ip6_fragment: we do consult ipv6_npinfo for frag_size 2) sk_mc_loop in ipv6 uses skb->sk and checks if we should loop the packet back to the local socket 3) ip6_skb_dst_mtu could query the settings from the user socket and force a wrong MTU Furthermore: In sk_mc_loop we could potentially land in WARN_ON(1) if we use a PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed vxlan device.

[ Upstream commit 666b8051 ] On processing cumulative ACKs, the FRTO code was not checking the SACKed bit, meaning that there could be a spurious FRTO undo on a cumulative ACK of a previously SACKed skb. The FRTO code should only consider a cumulative ACK to indicate that an original/unretransmitted skb is newly ACKed if the skb was not yet SACKed. The effect of the spurious FRTO undo would typically be to make the connection think that all previously-sent packets were in flight when they really weren't, leading to a stall and an RTO.

[ Upstream commit 0c36820e ] xen-netfront limits transmitted skbs to be at most 44 segments in size. However, GSO permits up to 65536 bytes, which means a maximum of 45 segments of 1448 bytes each. This slight reduction in the size of packets means a slight loss in efficiency. Since c/s 9ecd1a75, xen-netfront sets gso_max_size to XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE - MAX_TCP_HEADER, where XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE is 65535 bytes. The calculation used by tcp_tso_autosize (and also tcp_xmit_size_goal since c/s 6c09fa09) in determining when to split an skb into two is sk->sk_gso_max_size - 1 - MAX_TCP_HEADER. So the maximum permitted size of an skb is calculated to be (XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE - MAX_TCP_HEADER) - 1 - MAX_TCP_HEADER. Intuitively, this looks like the wrong formula -- we don't need two TCP headers. Instead, there is no need to deviate from the default gso_max_size of 65536 as this already accommodates the size of the header. Currently, the largest skb transmitted by netfront is 63712 bytes (44 segments of 1448 bytes each), as observed via tcpdump. This patch makes netfront send skbs of up to 65160 bytes (45 segments of 1448 bytes each). Similarly, the maximum allowable mtu does not need to subtract MAX_TCP_HEADER as it relates to the size of the whole packet, including the header.

[ Upstream commit f5e2dc5d ] Before commit 3900f290 ("bonding: slight optimizztion for bond_slave_override()") the override logic was to send packets with non-zero queue_id through the slave with corresponding queue_id, under two conditions only - if the slave can transmit and it's up. The above mentioned commit changed this logic by introducing an additional condition - whether the bond is active (indirectly, using the slave_can_tx and later - bond_is_active_slave), that prevents the user from implementing more complex policies according to the Documentation/networking/bonding.txt.

[ Upstream commit 4ad19de8 ] tcp_v6_fill_cb() will be called twice if socket's state changes from TCP_TIME_WAIT to TCP_LISTEN. That can result in control buffer data corruption because in the second tcp_v6_fill_cb() call it's not copying IP6CB(skb) anymore, but 'seq', 'end_seq', etc., so we can get weird and unpredictable results. Performance loss of up to 1200% has been observed in LTP/vxlan03 test. This can be fixed by copying inet6_skb_parm to the beginning of 'cb' only if xfrm6_policy_check() and tcp_v6_fill_cb() are going to be called again. Fixes: 2dc49d16 ("tcp6: don't move IP6CB before xfrm6_policy_check()") Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit e5eda89d ] Netdevice registration should be performed a the end of the driver initialization flow. If we don't do that, after calling register_netdevice, device callbacks may be issued by higher layers of the stack before final configuration of the device is done. For example (VXLAN configuration race), mlx4_SET_PORT_VXLAN was issued after the register_netdev command. System network scripts may configure the interface (UP) right after the registration, which also attach unicast VXLAN steering rule, before mlx4_SET_PORT_VXLAN was called, causing the firmware to fail the rule attachment.

[ Upstream commit d0c294c5 ] On s390x, gcc 4.8 compiles this part of tcp_v6_early_demux() struct dst_entry *dst = sk->sk_rx_dst; if (dst) dst = dst_check(dst, inet6_sk(sk)->rx_dst_cookie); to code reading sk->sk_rx_dst twice, once for the test and once for the argument of ip6_dst_check() (dst_check() is inline). This allows ip6_dst_check() to be called with null first argument, causing a crash. Protect sk->sk_rx_dst access by READ_ONCE() both in IPv4 and IPv6 TCP early demux code. Fixes: 41063e9d ("ipv4: Early TCP socket demux.") Fixes: c7109986 ("ipv6: Early TCP socket demux") Signed-off-by:
