commit 61c8504c upstream. The pool_to and to_pool fields of the global svc_pool_map are freed on shutdown, but are initialized in nfsd startup only in the SVC_POOL_PERCPU and SVC_POOL_PERNODE cases. They *are* initialized to zero on kernel startup. So as long as you use only SVC_POOL_GLOBAL (the default), this will never be a problem. You're also OK if you only ever use SVC_POOL_PERCPU or SVC_POOL_PERNODE. However, the following sequence events leads to a double-free: 1. set SVC_POOL_PERCPU or SVC_POOL_PERNODE 2. start nfsd: both fields are initialized. 3. shutdown nfsd: both fields are freed. 4. set SVC_POOL_GLOBAL 5. start nfsd: the fields are left untouched. 6. shutdown nfsd: now we try to free them again. Step 4 is actually unnecessary, since (for some bizarre reason), nfsd automatically resets the pool mode to SVC_POOL_GLOBAL on shutdown. Signed-off-by: J.

commit 364212fd upstream. Thomas Lange reported that when he did a 'make localmodconfig', his config was missing the brcmsmac driver, even though he had the module loaded. Looking into this, I found the file: drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211/brcmsmac/Makefile had the following in the Makefile: MODULEPFX := brcmsmac obj-$(CONFIG_BRCMSMAC) += $(MODULEPFX).o The way streamline-config.pl works, is parsing all the obj-$(CONFIG_FOO) += foo.o lines to find that CONFIG_FOO belongs to the module foo.ko. But in this case, the brcmsmac.o was not used, but a variable in its place. By changing streamline-config.pl to remember defined variables in Makefiles and substituting them when they are used in the obj-X lines, allows Thomas (and others) to have their brcmsmac module stay configured when it is loaded and running "make localmodconfig".

commit 30fb6aa7 upstream. Multiple users of the function tracer can register their functions with the ftrace_ops structure. The accounting within ftrace will update the counter on each function record that is being traced. When the ftrace_ops filtering adds or removes functions, the function records will be updated accordingly if the ftrace_ops is still registered. When a ftrace_ops is removed, the counter of the function records, that the ftrace_ops traces, are decremented. When they reach zero the functions that they represent are modified to stop calling the mcount code. When changes are made, the code is updated via stop_machine() with a command passed to the function to tell it what to do. There is an ENABLE and DISABLE command that tells the called function to enable or disable the functions. But the ENABLE is really a misnomer as it should just update the records, as records that have been enabled and now have a count of zero should be disabled. The DISABLE command is used to disable all functions regardless of their counter values. This is the big off switch and is not the complement of the ENABLE command. To make matters worse, when a ftrace_ops is unregistered and there is another ftrace_ops registered, neither the DISABLE nor the ENABLE command are set when calling into the stop_machine() function and the records will not be updated to match their counter. A command is passed to that function that will update the mcount code to call the registered callback directly if it is the only one left. This means that the ftrace_ops that is still registered will have its callback called by all functions that have been set for it as well as the ftrace_ops that was just unregistered. Here's a way to trigger this bug. Compile the kernel with CONFIG_FUNCTION_PROFILER set and with CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH not set: CONFIG_FUNCTION_PROFILER=y # CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH is not set This will force the function profiler to use the function tracer instead of the function graph tracer. # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo schedule > set_ftrace_filter # echo function > current_tracer # cat set_ftrace_filter schedule # cat trace # tracer: nop # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 692/68108025 #P:4 # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | kworker/0:2-909 [000] .... 531.235574: schedule <-worker_thread <idle>-0 [001] .N.. 531.235575: schedule <-cpu_idle kworker/0:2-909 [000] .... 531.235597: schedule <-worker_thread sshd-2563 [001] .... 531.235647: schedule <-schedule_hrtimeout_range_clock # echo 1 > function_profile_enabled # echo 0 > function_porfile_enabled # cat set_ftrace_filter schedule # cat trace # tracer: function # # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 159701/118821262 #P:4 # # _-----=> irqs-off # / _----=> need-resched # | / _---=> hardirq/softirq # || / _--=> preempt-depth # ||| / delay # TASK-PID CPU# |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION # | | | |||| | | <idle>-0 [002] ...1 604.870655: local_touch_nmi <-cpu_idle <idle>-0 [002] d..1 604.870655: enter_idle <-cpu_idle <idle>-0 [002] d..1 604.870656: atomic_notifier_call_chain <-enter_idle <idle>-0 [002] d..1 604.870656: __atomic_notifier_call_chain <-atomic_notifier_call_chain The same problem could have happened with the trace_probe_ops, but they are modified with the set_frace_filter file which does the update at closure of the file. The simple solution is to change ENABLE to UPDATE and call it every time an ftrace_ops is unregistered.

commit 69e4747e upstream. Since commit 080d676d ("aio: allocate kiocbs in batches") iocbs are allocated in a batch during processing of first iocbs. All iocbs in a batch are automatically added to ctx->active_reqs list and accounted in ctx->reqs_active. If one (not the last one) of iocbs submitted by an user fails, further iocbs are not processed, but they are still present in ctx->active_reqs and accounted in ctx->reqs_active. This causes process to stuck in a D state in wait_for_all_aios() on exit since ctx->reqs_active will never go down to zero. Furthermore since kiocb_batch_free() frees iocb without removing it from active_reqs list the list become corrupted which may cause oops. Fix this by removing iocb from ctx->active_reqs and updating ctx->reqs_active in kiocb_batch_free().

commit 1f5d78dc upstream. We switch to dynamic debugging in commit 56e46742 but did not take into account that now we do not control anymore whether a specific message is enabled or not. So now we lock the "dbg_lock" and release it in every debugging macro, which make them not so light-weight. This commit removes the "dbg_lock" protection from the debugging macros to fix the issue. The downside is that now our DBGKEY() stuff is broken, but this is not critical at all and will be fixed later.

commit d34315da upstream. Patch 56e46742 broke UBIFS debugging messages: before that commit when UBIFS debugging was enabled, users saw few useful debugging messages after mount. However, that patch turned 'dbg_msg()' into 'pr_debug()', so to enable the debugging messages users have to enable them first via /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control, which is very impractical. This commit makes 'dbg_msg()' to use 'printk()' instead of 'pr_debug()', just as it was before the breakage.

commit 9af0c7a6 upstream. On x86_32 casting the unsigned int result of get_random_int() to long may result in a negative value. On x86_32 the range of mmap_rnd() therefore was -255 to 255. The 32bit mode on x86_64 used 0 to 255 as intended. The bug was introduced by 675a0813 ("x86: unify mmap_{32|64}.c") in January 2008.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki authored
commit ab936cbc upstream. Commit ef6a3c63 ("mm: add replace_page_cache_page() function") added a function replace_page_cache_page(). This function replaces a page in the radix-tree with a new page. WHen doing this, memory cgroup needs to fix up the accounting information. memcg need to check PCG_USED bit etc. In some(many?) cases, 'newpage' is on LRU before calling replace_page_cache(). So, memcg's LRU accounting information should be fixed, too. This patch adds mem_cgroup_replace_page_cache() and removes the old hooks. In that function, old pages will be unaccounted without touching res_counter and new page will be accounted to the memcg (of old page). WHen overwriting pc->mem_cgroup of newpage, take zone->lru_lock and avoid races with LRU handling. Background: replace_page_cache_page() is called by FUSE code in its splice() handling. Here, 'newpage' is replacing oldpage but this newpage is not a newly allocated page and may be on LRU. LRU mis-accounting will be critical for memory cgroup because rmdir() checks the whole LRU is empty and there is no account leak. If a page is on the other LRU than it should be, rmdir() will fail. This bug was added in March 2011, but no bug report yet. I guess there are not many people who use memcg and FUSE at the same time with upstream kernels. The result of this bug is that admin cannot destroy a memcg because of account leak. So, no panic, no deadlock. And, even if an active cgroup exist, umount can succseed. So no problem at shutdown.

commit 1a19f77f upstream. The commit "ath9k: Fix invalid noisefloor reading due to channel update" preserves the current channel noisefloor readings before updating channel type at the same channel index. It is also updating the curchan pointer. As survey updation is also referring curchan pointer to fetch the appropriate index, which might leads to invalid memory access. This patch partially reverts the change and stores the noise floor history buffer before updating channel type w/o updating curchan.

This happen with rt73usb and rt61pci at least. Before the commit we always check rx->key against NULL, so I assume fix should be done in mac80211 (also mic_fail path has similar check).

commit eb31aae8 upstream. Some Dell BIOSes have MCFG tables that don't report the entire MMCONFIG area claimed by the chipset.

commit 73736e03 upstream. Zhihua Che reported a possible memleak in slub allocator on CONFIG_PREEMPT=y builds. It is possible current thread migrates right before disabling irqs in __slab_alloc().

Many thanks to Zhihua Che for spotting this bug, introduced in 2.6.39 V2: Its also possible an IRQ freed one (or several) object(s) and populated c->freelist, so its not a CONFIG_PREEMPT only problem.

commit 9e7860ce upstream. Haogang Chen found out that: There is a potential integer overflow in process_msg() that could result in cross-domain attack. body = kmalloc(msg->hdr.len + 1, GFP_NOIO | __GFP_HIGH); When a malicious guest passes 0xffffffff in msg->hdr.len, the subsequent call to xb_read() would write to a zero-length buffer. The other end of this connection is always the xenstore backend daemon so there is no guest (malicious or otherwise) which can do this. The xenstore daemon is a trusted component in the system. However this seem like a reasonable robustness improvement so we should have it. And Ian when read the API docs found that: The payload length (len field of the header) is limited to 4096 (XENSTORE_PAYLOAD_MAX) in both directions. If a client exceeds the limit, its xenstored connection will be immediately killed by xenstored, which is usually catastrophic from the client's point of view. Clients (particularly domains, which cannot just reconnect) should avoid this. so this patch checks against that instead. This also avoids a potential integer overflow pointed out by Haogang Chen.

commit aff132d9 upstream. The amount of memory required for tracking chain buffers is rather large, and when the host credit count is big, memory allocation failure occurs inside __get_free_pages. The fix is to limit the number of chains to 100,000. In addition, the number of host credits is limited to 30,000 IOs. However this limitation can be overridden this using the command line option max_queue_depth. The algorithm for calculating the reply_post_queue_depth is changed so that it is equal to (reply_free_queue_depth + 16), previously it was (reply_free_queue_depth * 2).

commit 30c43282 upstream. Added code to release the spinlock that is used to protect the raid device list before calling a function that can block. The blocking was causing a reschedule, and subsequently it is tried to acquire the same lock, resulting in a panic (NMI Watchdog detecting a CPU lockup).

commit 5cf9a4e6 upstream. We only need amd_bus.o for AMD systems with PCI. arch/x86/pci/Makefile already depends on CONFIG_PCI=y, so this patch just adds the dependency on CONFIG_AMD_NB.

commit 24d25dbf upstream. This factors out the AMD native MMCONFIG discovery so we can use it outside amd_bus.c. amd_bus.c reads AMD MSRs so it can remove the MMCONFIG area from the PCI resources. We may also need the MMCONFIG information to work around BIOS defects in the ACPI MCFG table.

commit ae5cd864 upstream. This assures that a _CRS reserved host bridge window or window region is not used if it is not addressable by the CPU. The new code either trims the window to exclude the non-addressable portion or totally ignores the window if the entire window is non-addressable. The current code has been shown to be problematic with 32-bit non-PAE kernels on systems where _CRS reserves resources above 4GB.

commit a776c491 upstream. I traced a nasty kexec on panic boot failure to the fact that we had screaming msi interrupts and we were not disabling the msi messages at kernel startup. The booting kernel had not enabled those interupts so was not prepared to handle them. I can see no reason why we would ever want to leave the msi interrupts enabled at boot if something else has enabled those interrupts. The pci spec specifies that msi interrupts should be off by default. Drivers are expected to enable the msi interrupts if they want to use them. Our interrupt handling code reprograms the interrupt handlers at boot and will not be be able to do anything useful with an unexpected interrupt. This patch applies cleanly all of the way back to 2.6.32 where I noticed the problem. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

commit e57e0d8e upstream. When we fail to erase a PEB, we free the corresponding erase entry object, but then re-schedule this object if the error code was something like -EAGAIN. Obviously, it is a bug to use the object after we have freed it.
