commit a9c143c8 upstream. The Cypress ATACB unusual-devs entry for the Super Top SATA bridge causes problems. Although it was originally reported only for bcdDevice = 0x160, its range was much larger. This resulted in a bug report for bcdDevice 0x220, so the range was capped at 0x219. Now Milan reports errors with bcdDevice 0x150. Therefore this patch restricts the range to just 0x160. Signed-off-by:

commit 3ac06b90 upstream. 3GPP TS 07.10 states in section 5.4.6.3.7: "The length byte contains the value 2 or 3 ... depending on the break signal." The break byte is optional and if it is sent, the length is 3. In fact the driver was not able to work with modems that send this break byte in their modem status control message. If the modem just sends the break byte if it is really set, then weird things might happen. The code for deconding the modem status to the internal linux presentation in gsm_process_modem has already a big comment about this 2 or 3 byte length thing and it is already able to decode the brk, but the code calling the gsm_process_modem function in gsm_control_modem does not encode it and hand it over the right way. This patch fixes this. Without this fix if the modem sends the brk byte in it's modem status control message the driver will hang when opening a muxed channel. Signed-off-by:

commit 2ec197db upstream. If an NFS client attempts to get a lock (using NLM) and the lock is not available, the server will remember the request and when the lock becomes available it will send a GRANT request to the client to provide the lock. If the client already held an adjacent lock, the GRANT callback will report the union of the existing and new locks, which can confuse the client. This happens because __posix_lock_file (called by vfs_lock_file) updates the passed-in file_lock structure when adjacent or over-lapping locks are found. To avoid this problem we take a copy of the two fields that can be changed (fl_start and fl_end) before the call and restore them afterwards. An alternate would be to allocate a 'struct file_lock', initialise it, use locks_copy_lock() to take a copy, then locks_release_private() after the vfs_lock_file() call. But that is a lot more work.

commit 5bbb2ae3 upstream. bind_get() checks the device number it is called with. It uses MAX_RAW_MINORS for the upper bound. But MAX_RAW_MINORS is set at compile time while the actual number of raw devices can be set at runtime. This means the test can either be too strict or too lenient. And if the test ends up being too lenient bind_get() might try to access memory beyond what was allocated for "raw_devices". So check against the runtime value (max_raw_minors) in this function.

commit 1f802f82 upstream. This reverts commit e120cc0d. It causes a NULL pointer dereference with drivers using the generic spi_transfer_one_message(), which always calls spi_finalize_current_message(), which zeroes master->cur_msg. Drivers implementing transfer_one_message() theirselves must always call spi_finalize_current_message(), even if the transfer failed: * @transfer_one_message: the subsystem calls the driver to transfer a single * message while queuing transfers that arrive in the meantime. When the * driver is finished with this message, it must call * spi_finalize_current_message() so the subsystem can issue the next * transfer Signed-off-by:

commit 8d7f6690 upstream. The kernel currently crashes with a low-address-protection exception if a user space process executes an instruction that tries to use the linkage stack. Set the base-ASTE origin and the subspace-ASTE origin of the dispatchable-unit-control-table to point to a dummy ASTE. Set up control register 15 to point to an empty linkage stack with no room left. A user space process with a linkage stack instruction will still crash but with a different exception which is correctly translated to a segmentation fault instead of a kernel oops. Signed-off-by:

commit d7736ff5 upstream. Dumps created by kdump or zfcpdump can contain invalid memory holes when dumping z/VM systems that have memory pressure. For example: # zgetdump -i /proc/vmcore. Memory map: 0000000000000000 - 0000000000bfffff (12 MB) 0000000000e00000 - 00000000014fffff (7 MB) 000000000bd00000 - 00000000f3bfffff (3711 MB) The memory detection function find_memory_chunks() issues tprot to find valid memory chunks. In case of CMM it can happen that pages are marked as unstable via set_page_unstable() in arch_free_page(). If z/VM has released that pages, tprot returns -EFAULT and indicates a memory hole. So fix this and switch off CMM in case of kdump or zfcpdump. Signed-off-by:

commit 338f977f upstream. The "new" fragmentation code (since my rewrite almost 5 years ago) erroneously sets skb->len rather than using skb_trim() to adjust the length of the first fragment after copying out all the others. This leaves the skb tail pointer pointing to after where the data originally ended, and thus causes the encryption MIC to be written at that point, rather than where it belongs: immediately after the data. The impact of this is that if software encryption is done, then a) encryption doesn't work for the first fragment, the connection becomes unusable as the first fragment will never be properly verified at the receiver, the MIC is practically guaranteed to be wrong b) we leak up to 8 bytes of plaintext (!) of the packet out into the air This is only mitigated by the fact that many devices are capable of doing encryption in hardware, in which case this can't happen as the tail pointer is irrelevant in that case. Additionally, fragmentation is not used very frequently and would normally have to be configured manually. Fix this by using skb_trim() properly.

commit 96c7a2ff upstream. Recently due to a spike in connections per second memcached on 3 separate boxes triggered the OOM killer from accept. At the time the OOM killer was triggered there was 4GB out of 36GB free in zone 1. The problem was that alloc_fdtable was allocating an order 3 page (32KiB) to hold a bitmap, and there was sufficient fragmentation that the largest page available was 8KiB. I find the logic that PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER can't fail pretty dubious but I do agree that order 3 allocations are very likely to succeed. There are always pathologies where order > 0 allocations can fail when there are copious amounts of free memory available. Using the pigeon hole principle it is easy to show that it requires 1 page more than 50% of the pages being free to guarantee an order 1 (8KiB) allocation will succeed, 1 page more than 75% of the pages being free to guarantee an order 2 (16KiB) allocation will succeed and 1 page more than 87.5% of the pages being free to guarantee an order 3 allocate will succeed. A server churning memory with a lot of small requests and replies like memcached is a common case that if anything can will skew the odds against large pages being available. Therefore let's not give external applications a practical way to kill linux server applications, and specify __GFP_NORETRY to the kmalloc in alloc_fdmem. Unless I am misreading the code and by the time the code reaches should_alloc_retry in __alloc_pages_slowpath (where __GFP_NORETRY becomes signification). We have already tried everything reasonable to allocate a page and the only thing left to do is wait. So not waiting and falling back to vmalloc immediately seems like the reasonable thing to do even if there wasn't a chance of triggering the OOM killer. Signed-off-by:

Clearly this should only apply when kptr_restrict is actually enabled though. Reported-by:

commit 2c95a329 upstream. Block layer will allocate a spinlock for the queue if the driver does not provide one in blk_init_queue(). The reason to use the internal spinlock is that blk_cleanup_queue() will switch to use the internal spinlock in the cleanup code path. if (q->queue_lock != &q->__queue_lock) q->queue_lock = &q->__queue_lock; However, processes which are in D state might have taken the driver provided spinlock, when the processes wake up, they would release the block provided spinlock. ===================================== [ BUG: bad unlock balance detected! ] 3.4.0-rc7+ #238 Not tainted ------------------------------------- fio/3587 is trying to release lock (&(&q->__queue_lock)->rlock) at: [<ffffffff813274d2>] blk_queue_bio+0x2a2/0x380 but there are no more locks to release! other info that might help us debug this: 1 lock held by fio/3587: #0: (&(&vblk->lock)->rlock){......}, at: [<ffffffff8132661a>] get_request_wait+0x19a/0x250 Other drivers use block layer provided spinlock as well, e.g. SCSI.

commit c0394506 upstream. The touchpad on the Acer Aspire One D250 will report out of range values in the extreme lower portion of the touchpad. These appear as abrupt changes in the values reported by the hardware from very low values to very high values, which can cause unexpected vertical jumps in the position of the mouse pointer. What seems to be happening is that the value is wrapping to a two's compliment negative value of higher resolution than the 13-bit value reported by the hardware, with the high-order bits being truncated. This patch adds handling for these values by converting them to the appropriate negative values. The only tricky part about this is deciding when to treat a number as negative. It stands to reason that if out of range values can be reported on the low end then it could also happen on the high end, so not all out of range values should be treated as negative. The approach taken here is to split the difference between the maximum legitimate value for the axis and the maximum possible value that the hardware can report, treating values greater than this number as negative and all other values as positive. This can be tweaked later if hardware is found that operates outside of these parameters. BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1001251Signed-off-by:

Do not check the amount of free pages left on every single page write, but wait until one map is completely populated and then check. 3. Set maximum number of pages for read buffering consistently, instead of inadvertently depending on the size of the sector type. 4. Fix copyright line, which I missed when I submitted the hibernation threading patch. 5. Dispense with bit shifting arithmetic to improve readability. 6. Really recalculate the number of pages required to be free after all allocations have been done. 7. Fix calculation of pages required for read buffering.

commit b32f4c7e upstream. This patch re-adds the ability to optionally run in buffered FILEIO mode (eg: w/o O_DSYNC) for device backends in order to once again use the Linux buffered cache as a write-back storage mechanism.

commit a4dff304 upstream. Convert to use O_DSYNC for all cases at FILEIO backend creation time to avoid the extra syncing of pure timestamp updates with legacy O_SYNC during default operation as recommended by hch. Continue to do this independently of Write Cache Enable (WCE) bit, as WCE=0 is currently the default for all backend devices and enabled by user on per device basis via attrib/emulate_write_cache. This patch drops the now unnecessary fd_buffered_io= token usage that was originally signalling when to explictly disable O_SYNC at backend creation time for buffered I/O operation. This can end up being dangerous for a number of reasons during physical node failure, so go ahead and drop this option for now when O_DSYNC is used as the default. Also allow explict FUA WRITEs -> vfs_fsync_range() call to function in fd_execute_cmd() independently of WCE bit setting. Reported-by:

commit 603e7729 upstream. qib_user_sdma_queue_pkts() gets called with mmap_sem held for writing. Except for get_user_pages() deep down in qib_user_sdma_pin_pages() we don't seem to need mmap_sem at all. Even more interestingly the function qib_user_sdma_queue_pkts() (and also qib_user_sdma_coalesce() called somewhat later) call copy_from_user() which can hit a page fault and we deadlock on trying to get mmap_sem when handling that fault. So just make qib_user_sdma_pin_pages() use get_user_pages_fast() and leave mmap_sem locking for mm. This deadlock has actually been observed in the wild when the node is under memory pressure.

commit 5aaa0b7a upstream. Follow up on commit 556061b0 ("sched/nohz: Fix rq->cpu_load[] calculations") since while that fixed the busy case it regressed the mostly idle case. Add a callback from the nohz exit to also age the rq->cpu_load[] array. This closes the hole where either there was no nohz load balance pass during the nohz, or there was a 'significant' amount of idle time between the last nohz balance and the nohz exit. So we'll update unconditionally from the tick to not insert any accidental 0 load periods while busy, and we try and catch up from nohz idle balance and nohz exit. Both these are still prone to missing a jiffy, but that has always been the case. Signed-off-by:

commit 556061b0 upstream. While investigating why the load-balancer did funny I found that the rq->cpu_load[] tables were completely screwy.. a bit more digging revealed that the updates that got through were missing ticks followed by a catchup of 2 ticks. The catchup assumes the cpu was idle during that time (since only nohz can cause missed ticks and the machine is idle etc..) this means that esp. the higher indices were significantly lower than they ought to be. The reason for this is that its not correct to compare against jiffies on every jiffy on any other cpu than the cpu that updates jiffies. This patch cludges around it by only doing the catch-up stuff from nohz_idle_balance() and doing the regular stuff unconditionally from the tick. Signed-off-by:

commit 23a8e844 upstream. Doing some different tests, I discovered that function graph tracing, when filtered via the set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace files, does not always keep with them if another function ftrace_ops is registered to trace functions. The reason is that function graph just happens to trace all functions that the function tracer enables. When there was only one user of function tracing, the function graph tracer did not need to worry about being called by functions that it did not want to trace. But now that there are other users, this becomes a problem. For example, one just needs to do the following: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo schedule > set_ftrace_filter # echo function_graph > current_tracer # cat trace [..] 0) | schedule() { ------------------------------------------ 0) <idle>-0 => rcu_pre-7 ------------------------------------------ 0) ! 2980.314 us | } 0) | schedule() { ------------------------------------------ 0) rcu_pre-7 => <idle>-0 ------------------------------------------ 0) + 20.701 us | } # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/stack_tracer_enabled # cat trace [..] 1) + 20.825 us | } 1) + 21.651 us | } 1) + 30.924 us | } /* SyS_ioctl */ 1) | do_page_fault() { 1) | __do_page_fault() { 1) 0.274 us | down_read_trylock(); 1) 0.098 us | find_vma(); 1) | handle_mm_fault() { 1) | _raw_spin_lock() { 1) 0.102 us | preempt_count_add(); 1) 0.097 us | do_raw_spin_lock(); 1) 2.173 us | } 1) | do_wp_page() { 1) 0.079 us | vm_normal_page(); 1) 0.086 us | reuse_swap_page(); 1) 0.076 us | page_move_anon_rmap(); 1) | unlock_page() { 1) 0.082 us | page_waitqueue(); 1) 0.086 us | __wake_up_bit(); 1) 1.801 us | } 1) 0.075 us | ptep_set_access_flags(); 1) | _raw_spin_unlock() { 1) 0.098 us | do_raw_spin_unlock(); 1) 0.105 us | preempt_count_sub(); 1) 1.884 us | } 1) 9.149 us | } 1) + 13.083 us | } 1) 0.146 us | up_read(); When the stack tracer was enabled, it enabled all functions to be traced, which now the function graph tracer also traces. This is a side effect that should not occur. To fix this a test is added when the function tracing is changed, as well as when the graph tracer is enabled, to see if anything other than the ftrace global_ops function tracer is enabled. If so, then the graph tracer calls a test trampoline that will look at the function that is being traced and compare it with the filters defined by the global_ops. As an optimization, if there's no other function tracers registered, or if the only registered function tracers also use the global ops, the function graph infrastructure will call the registered function graph callback directly and not go through the test trampoline.

commit 405e1d83 upstream. [ Partial commit backported to 3.4. The ftrace_sync() code by this is required for other fixes that 3.4 needs. ] ftrace_trace_function is a variable that holds what function will be called directly by the assembly code (mcount). If just a single function is registered and it handles recursion itself, then the assembly will call that function directly without any helper function. It also passes in the ftrace_op that was registered with the callback. The ftrace_op to send is stored in the function_trace_op variable. The ftrace_trace_function and function_trace_op needs to be coordinated such that the called callback wont be called with the wrong ftrace_op, otherwise bad things can happen if it expected a different op. Luckily, there's no callback that doesn't use the helper functions that requires this. But there soon will be and this needs to be fixed. Use a set_function_trace_op to store the ftrace_op to set the function_trace_op to when it is safe to do so (during the update function within the breakpoint or stop machine calls). Or if dynamic ftrace is not being used (static tracing) then we have to do a bit more synchronization when the ftrace_trace_function is set as that takes affect immediately (as oppose to dynamic ftrace doing it with the modification of the trampoline).

commit 2995fa78 upstream. This reverts commit be35f486 ("dm: wait until embedded kobject is released before destroying a device") and provides an improved fix. The kobject release code that calls the completion must be placed in a non-module file, otherwise there is a module unload race (if the process calling dm_kobject_release is preempted and the DM module unloaded after the completion is triggered, but before dm_kobject_release returns). To fix this race, this patch moves the completion code to dm-builtin.c which is always compiled directly into the kernel if BLK_DEV_DM is selected. The patch introduces a new dm_kobject_holder structure, its purpose is to keep the completion and kobject in one place, so that it can be accessed from non-module code without the need to export the layout of struct mapped_device to that code.

commit ca57df79 upstream. On architectures with CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE_SIZE_VARIABLE set, such as Itanium, pageblock_order is a variable with default value of 0. It's set to the right value by set_pageblock_order() in function free_area_init_core(). But pageblock_order may be used by sparse_init() before free_area_init_core() is called along path: sparse_init() ->sparse_early_usemaps_alloc_node() ->usemap_size() ->SECTION_BLOCKFLAGS_BITS ->((1UL << (PFN_SECTION_SHIFT - pageblock_order)) * NR_PAGEBLOCK_BITS) The uninitialized pageblock_size will cause memory wasting because usemap_size() returns a much bigger value then it's really needed. For example, on an Itanium platform, sparse_init() pageblock_order=0 usemap_size=24576 free_area_init_core() before pageblock_order=0, usemap_size=24576 free_area_init_core() after pageblock_order=12, usemap_size=8 That means 24K memory has been wasted for each section, so fix it by calling set_pageblock_order() from sparse_init().

This bug was hidden because one version of set_pageblock_order() was a macro which doesn't evaluate its argument. Simplify it all and remove pageblock_default_order() altogether. Reported-by:

commit 9f846a16 upstream. Especially vesafb likes to map everything as uc- (yikes), and if that mapping hangs around still while we try to map the gtt as wc the kernel will downgrade our request to uc-, resulting in abyssal performance. Unfortunately we can't do this as early as readon does (i.e. as the first thing we do when initializing the hw) because our fb/mmio space region moves around on a per-gen basis. So I've had to move it below the gtt initialization, but that seems to work, too. The important thing is that we do this before we set up the gtt wc mapping. Now an altogether different question is why people compile their kernels with vesafb enabled, but I guess making things just work isn't bad per se ... v2: - s/radeondrmfb/inteldrmfb/ - fix up error handling v3: Kill #ifdef X86, this is Intel after all. Noticed by Ben Widawsky. v4: Jani Nikula complained about the pointless bool primary initialization. v5: Don't oops if we can't allocate, noticed by Chris Wilson. v6: Resolve conflicts with agp rework and fixup whitespace. This is commit e188719a in drm-next. Backport to 3.5 -fixes queue requested by Dave Airlie - due to grub using vesa on fedora their initrd seems to load vesafb before loading the real kms driver. So tons more people actually experience a dead-slow gpu. Hence also the Cc: stable. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit 6f2e9f0e upstream. Now when we set the group inode free count, we don't have a proper group lock so that multiple threads may decrease the inode free count at the same time. And e2fsck will complain something like: Free inodes count wrong for group #1 (1, counted=0). Fix? no Free inodes count wrong for group #2 (3, counted=0). Fix? no Directories count wrong for group #2 (780, counted=779). Fix? no Free inodes count wrong for group #3 (2272, counted=2273). Fix? no So this patch try to protect it with the ext4_lock_group. btw, it is found by xfstests test case 269 and the volume is mkfsed with the parameter "-O ^resize_inode,^uninit_bg,extent,meta_bg,flex_bg,ext_attr" and I have run it 100 times and the error in e2fsck doesn't show up again.

commit 85eae82a upstream. The console_cpu_notify() function runs with interrupts disabled in the CPU_DYING case. It therefore cannot block, for example, as will happen when it calls console_lock(). Therefore, remove the CPU_DYING leg of the switch statement to avoid this problem. Signed-off-by:

commit 6583327c upstream. Commit d61931d8, "x86: Add optimized popcnt variants" introduced compile flag -fcall-saved-rdi for lib/hweight.c. When combined with options -fprofile-arcs and -O2, this flag causes gcc to generate broken constructor code. As a result, a 64 bit x86 kernel compiled with CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y prints message "gcov: could not create file" and runs into sproadic BUGs during boot. The gcc people indicate that these kinds of problems are endemic when using ad hoc calling conventions. It is therefore best to treat any file compiled with ad hoc calling conventions as an isolated environment and avoid things like profiling or coverage analysis, since those subsystems assume a "normal" calling conventions. This patch avoids the bug by excluding lib/hweight.o from coverage profiling. Reported-by:

commit 227d53b3 upstream. To use spin_{un}lock_irq is dangerous if caller disabled interrupt. During aio buffer migration, we have a possibility to see the following call stack. aio_migratepage [disable interrupt] migrate_page_copy clear_page_dirty_for_io set_page_dirty __set_page_dirty_buffers __set_page_dirty spin_lock_irq This mean, current aio migration is a deadlockable. spin_lock_irqsave is a safer alternative and we should use it.

commit a85d9df1 upstream. During aio stress test, we observed the following lockdep warning. This mean AIO+numa_balancing is currently deadlockable. The problem is, aio_migratepage disable interrupt, but __set_page_dirty_nobuffers unintentionally enable it again. Generally, all helper function should use spin_lock_irqsave() instead of spin_lock_irq() because they don't know caller at all. other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 ---- lock(&(&ctx->completion_lock)->rlock); <Interrupt> lock(&(&ctx->completion_lock)->rlock); *** DEADLOCK *** dump_stack+0x19/0x1b print_usage_bug+0x1f7/0x208 mark_lock+0x21d/0x2a0 mark_held_locks+0xb9/0x140 trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0x105/0x1d0 trace_hardirqs_on+0xd/0x10 _raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x2c/0x50 __set_page_dirty_nobuffers+0x8c/0xf0 migrate_page_copy+0x434/0x540 aio_migratepage+0xb1/0x140 move_to_new_page+0x7d/0x230 migrate_pages+0x5e5/0x700 migrate_misplaced_page+0xbc/0xf0 do_numa_page+0x102/0x190 handle_pte_fault+0x241/0x970 handle_mm_fault+0x265/0x370 __do_page_fault+0x172/0x5a0 do_page_fault+0x1a/0x70 page_fault+0x28/0x30 Signed-off-by:

commit 2172fa70 upstream. Setting an empty security context (length=0) on a file will lead to incorrectly dereferencing the type and other fields of the security context structure, yielding a kernel BUG. As a zero-length security context is never valid, just reject all such security contexts whether coming from userspace via setxattr or coming from the filesystem upon a getxattr request by SELinux. Setting a security context value (empty or otherwise) unknown to SELinux in the first place is only possible for a root process (CAP_MAC_ADMIN), and, if running SELinux in enforcing mode, only if the corresponding SELinux mac_admin permission is also granted to the domain by policy. In Fedora policies, this is only allowed for specific domains such as livecd for setting down security contexts that are not defined in the build host policy. Reproducer: su setenforce 0 touch foo setfattr -n security.selinux foo Caveat: Relabeling or removing foo after doing the above may not be possible without booting with SELinux disabled. Any subsequent access to foo after doing the above will also trigger the BUG.
