      connector: fix regression introduced by sid connector · 0d0df599
      Christian Borntraeger authored 
      Since commit 02b51df1 (proc connector: add
event for process becoming session leader) we have the following warning:

Badness at kernel/softirq.c:143
[...]
Krnl PSW : 0404c00180000000 00000000001481d4 (local_bh_enable+0xb0/0xe0)

 [<00000041616cb266>] 0x41616cb266

The warning is
--->    WARN_ON_ONCE(in_irq() || irqs_disabled());

The network code must not be called with disabled interrupts but
sys_setsid holds the tasklist_lock with spinlock_irq while calling the
connector.

After a discussion we agreed that we can move proc_sid_connector from
__set_special_pids to sys_setsid.

We also agreed that it is sufficient to change the check from
task_session(curr) != pid into err > 0, since if we don't change the
session, this means we were already the leader and return -EPERM.

One last thing:
There is also daemonize(), and some people might want to get a
notification in that case. Since daemonize() is only needed if a user
space does kernel_thread this does not look important (and there seems
to be no consensus if this connector should be called in daemonize). If
we really want this, we can add proc_sid_connector to daemonize() in an
additional patch (Scott?)

      Given such a long name, the kB count in /proc/meminfo's HardwareCorrupted

      hwpoison: fix oops on ksm pages · 92f7ba70
      Hugh Dickins authored 
      Memory failure on a KSM page currently oopses on its NULL anon_vma in
page_lock_anon_vma(): that may not be much worse than the consequence of
ignoring it, but it is better to be consistent with how ZERO_PAGE and
hugetlb pages and other awkward cases are treated.  Just skip it.

We could fix it for 2.6.32 at the KSM end, by putting a dummy anon_vma
pointer in there; but that would get harder next time, when KSM will put a
pointer to something else there (and I'm not currently planning to do any
work to open that up to memory_failure).  So I would prefer this simple
PageKsm test, until the other exceptions are handled.

      When CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is disabled, cpufreq_get() needs a stub.  Used by kvm
(although it looks like a bit of the kvm code could be omitted when
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is disabled).

      Mask off FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD in dnotify_handle_event().  Otherwise, when there

      crypto: aesni-intel - Fix irq_fpu_usable usage · 13b79b97
      Huang Ying authored 
      When renaming kernel_fpu_using to irq_fpu_usable, the semantics of the
function is changed too, from mesuring whether kernel is using FPU,
that is, the FPU is NOT available, to measuring whether FPU is usable,
that is, the FPU is available.

But the usage of irq_fpu_usable in aesni-intel_glue.c is not changed
accordingly. This patch fixes this.

      Eric Dumazet authored 
      ipv4/ipv6 setsockopt(IP_MULTICAST_IF) have dubious __dev_get_by_index() calls.

This function should be called only with RTNL or dev_base_lock held, or reader
could see a corrupt hash chain and eventually enter an endless loop.

Fix is to call dev_get_by_index()/dev_put().

If this happens to be performance critical, we could define a new dev_exist_by_index()
function to avoid touching dev refcount.

      Julian Anastasov authored 
      Change SYN-ACK retransmitting code for the TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT
users to not retransmit SYN-ACKs during the deferring period if
ACK from client was received. The goal is to reduce traffic
during the deferring period. When the period is finished
we continue with sending SYN-ACKs (at least one) but this time
any traffic from client will change the request to established
socket allowing application to terminate it properly.
Also, do not drop acked request if sending of SYN-ACK fails.

      tcp: accept socket after TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT period · d1b99ba4
      Julian Anastasov authored 
      Willy Tarreau and many other folks in recent years
were concerned what happens when the TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT period
expires for clients which sent ACK packet. They prefer clients
that actively resend ACK on our SYN-ACK retransmissions to be
converted from open requests to sockets and queued to the
listener for accepting after the deferring period is finished.
Then application server can decide to wait longer for data
or to properly terminate the connection with FIN if read()
returns EAGAIN which is an indication for accepting after
the deferring period. This change still can have side effects
for applications that expect always to see data on the accepted
socket. Others can be prepared to work in both modes (with or
without TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT period) and their data processing can
ignore the read=EAGAIN notification and to allocate resources for
clients which proved to have no data to send during the deferring
period. OTOH, servers that use TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT=1 as flag (not
as a timeout) to wait for data will notice clients that didn't
send data for 3 seconds but that still resend ACKs.
Thanks to Willy Tarreau for the initial idea and to
Eric Dumazet for the review and testing the change.

    namespace(*), and shutdown(2) it.
 2. Repeat connect(2)ing to the listening socket from the other sockets
    until the connection backlog is full-filled.
 3. connect(2) takes the CPU forever. If every core is taken, the
    system hangs.

PoC code: (Run as many times as cores on SMP machines.)

int main(void)
{
	int ret;
	int csd;
	int lsd;
	struct sockaddr_un sun;

	/* make an abstruct name address (*) */
	memset(&sun, 0, sizeof(sun));
	sun.sun_family = PF_UNIX;
	sprintf(&sun.sun_path[1], "%d", getpid());

	/* create the listening socket and shutdown */
	lsd = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
	bind(lsd, (struct sockaddr *)&sun, sizeof(sun));
	listen(lsd, 1);
	shutdown(lsd, SHUT_RDWR);

	/* connect loop */
	alarm(15); /* forcely exit the loop after 15 sec */
	for (;;) {
		csd = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
		ret = connect(csd, (struct sockaddr *)&sun, sizeof(sun));
		if (-1 == ret) {
			perror("connect()");
			break;
		}
		puts("Connection OK");
	}
	return 0;
}

(*) Make sun_path[0] = 0 to use the abstruct namespace.
    If a file-based socket is used, the system doesn't deadlock because
    of context switches in the file system layer.

Why this happens:
 Error checks between unix_socket_connect() and unix_wait_for_peer() are
 inconsistent. The former calls the latter to wait until the backlog is
 processed. Despite the latter returns without doing anything when the
 socket is shutdown, the former doesn't check the shutdown state and
 just retries calling the latter forever.

Patch:
 The patch below adds shutdown check into unix_socket_connect(), so
 connect(2) to the shutdown socket will return -ECONREFUSED.

      ethoc: clear only pending irqs · 50c54a57
      Thomas Chou authored 
      This patch fixed the problem of dropped packets due to lost of
interrupt requests. We should only clear what was pending at the
moment we read the irq source reg.
