commit a05b7ea0 upstream. md will refuse to stop an array if any other fd (or mounted fs) is using it. When any fs is unmounted of when the last open fd is closed all pending IO will be flushed (e.g. sync_blockdev call in __blkdev_put) so there will be no pending IO to worry about when the array is stopped. However in order to send the STOP_ARRAY ioctl to stop the array one must first get and open fd on the block device. If some fd is being used to write to the block device and it is closed after mdadm open the block device, but before mdadm issues the STOP_ARRAY ioctl, then there will be no last-close on the md device so __blkdev_put will not call sync_blockdev. If this happens, then IO can still be in-flight while md tears down the array and bad things can happen (use-after-free and subsequent havoc). So in the case where do_md_stop is being called from an open file descriptor, call sync_block after taking the mutex to ensure there will be no new openers. This is needed when setting a read-write device to read-only too.

This is a backport of 3e997130 The leap second rework unearthed another issue of inconsistent data. On timekeeping_resume() the timekeeper data is updated, but nothing calls timekeeping_update(), so now the update code in the timer interrupt sees stale values. This has been the case before those changes, but then the timer interrupt was using stale data as well so this went unnoticed for quite some time. Add the missing update call, so all the data is consistent everywhere. Reported-by: Andreas Schwab <schwab@linux-m68k.org> Reported-and-tested-by: "Rafael J.

This is a backport of 5baefd6d The update of the hrtimer base offsets on all cpus cannot be made atomically from the timekeeper.lock held and interrupt disabled region as smp function calls are not allowed there. clock_was_set(), which enforces the update on all cpus, is called either from preemptible process context in case of do_settimeofday() or from the softirq context when the offset modification happened in the timer interrupt itself due to a leap second. In both cases there is a race window for an hrtimer interrupt between dropping timekeeper lock, enabling interrupts and clock_was_set() issuing the updates. Any interrupt which arrives in that window will see the new time but operate on stale offsets. So we need to make sure that an hrtimer interrupt always sees a consistent state of time and offsets. ktime_get_update_offsets() allows us to get the current monotonic time and update the per cpu hrtimer base offsets from hrtimer_interrupt() to capture a consistent state of monotonic time and the offsets. The function replaces the existing ktime_get() calls in hrtimer_interrupt(). The overhead of the new function vs. ktime_get() is minimal as it just adds two store operations. This ensures that any changes to realtime or boottime offsets are noticed and stored into the per-cpu hrtimer base structures, prior to any hrtimer expiration and guarantees that timers are not expired early.

This is a backport of f6c06abf To finally fix the infamous leap second issue and other race windows caused by functions which change the offsets between the various time bases (CLOCK_MONOTONIC, CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME) we need a function which atomically gets the current monotonic time and updates the offsets of CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME with minimalistic overhead. The previous patch which provides ktime_t offsets allows us to make this function almost as cheap as ktime_get() which is going to be replaced in hrtimer_interrupt().

This is a backport of 4873fa07 The timekeeping code misses an update of the hrtimer subsystem after a leap second happened. Due to that timers based on CLOCK_REALTIME are either expiring a second early or late depending on whether a leap second has been inserted or deleted until an operation is initiated which causes that update. Unless the update happens by some other means this discrepancy between the timekeeping and the hrtimer data stays forever and timers are expired either early or late. The reported immediate workaround - $ data -s "`date`" - is causing a call to clock_was_set() which updates the hrtimer data structures. See: http://www.sheeri.com/content/mysql-and-leap-second-high-cpu-and-fix Add the missing clock_was_set() call to update_wall_time() in case of a leap second event.

This is a backport of f55a6faa clock_was_set() cannot be called from hard interrupt context because it calls on_each_cpu(). For fixing the widely reported leap seconds issue it is necessary to call it from hard interrupt context, i.e. the timer tick code, which does the timekeeping updates. Provide a new function which denotes it in the hrtimer cpu base structure of the cpu on which it is called and raise the hrtimer softirq. We then execute the clock_was_set() notificiation from softirq context in run_hrtimer_softirq(). The hrtimer softirq is rarely used, so polling the flag there is not a performance issue.

According to that fix rt2x00usb_kick_queue(), as we need to submit RX entries that are not processed by the hardware. It worked before only for empty queue, otherwise was broken. Note that for TX queues indexes ordering are ok. We need to kick entries that have filled skb, but was not submitted to the hardware, i.e. started from Q_INDEX_DONE and have ENTRY_DATA_PENDING bit set.

commit 05d290d6 upstream. If a parent and child process open the two ends of a fifo, and the child immediately exits, the parent may receive a SIGCHLD before its open() returns. In that case, we need to make sure that open() will return successfully after the SIGCHLD handler returns, instead of throwing EINTR or being restarted. Otherwise, the restarted open() would incorrectly wait for a second partner on the other end. The following test demonstrates the EINTR that was wrongly thrown from the parent’s open(). Change .sa_flags = 0 to .sa_flags = SA_RESTART to see a deadlock instead, in which the restarted open() waits for a second reader that will never come. (On my systems, this happens pretty reliably within about 5 to 500 iterations. Others report that it manages to loop ~forever sometimes; YMMV.) #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <signal.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #define CHECK(x) do if ((x) == -1) {perror(#x); abort();} while(0) void handler(int signum) {} int main() { struct sigaction act = {.sa_handler = handler, .sa_flags = 0}; CHECK(sigaction(SIGCHLD, &act, NULL)); CHECK(mknod("fifo", S_IFIFO | S_IRWXU, 0)); for (;;) { int fd; pid_t pid; putc('.', stderr); CHECK(pid = fork()); if (pid == 0) { CHECK(fd = open("fifo", O_RDONLY)); _exit(0); } CHECK(fd = open("fifo", O_WRONLY)); CHECK(close(fd)); CHECK(waitpid(pid, NULL, 0)); } } This is what I suspect was causing the Git test suite to fail in t9010-svn-fe.sh: http://bugs.debian.org/678852Signed-off-by: Anders Kaseorg <andersk@mit.edu> Reviewed-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit 2d4f4f33 upstream. This bug has been present ever since data-check was introduce in 2.6.16. However it would only fire if a data-check were done on a degraded array, which was only possible if the array has 3 or more devices. This is certainly possible, but is quite uncommon. Since hot-replace was added in 3.3 it can happen more often as the same condition can arise if not all possible replacements are present. The problem is that as soon as we submit the last read request, the 'r1_bio' structure could be freed at any time, so we really should stop looking at it. If the last device is being read from we will stop looking at it. However if the last device is not due to be read from, we will still check the bio pointer in the r1_bio, but the r1_bio might already be free. So use the read_targets counter to make sure we stop looking for bios to submit as soon as we have submitted them all. This fix is suitable for any -stable kernel since 2.6.16.

While this is a straightforward clean up, there is more to that, the real motivation for this. While building on a cross compiling environment in armel, using gcc 4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5), I was getting the following build error: ERROR: "__aeabi_uldivmod" [drivers/mtd/nand/nandsim.ko] undefined! After investigating with objdump and hand built assembly version generated with the compiler, I narrowed __aeabi_uldivmod as being generated from the divide function. When nandsim.c is built with -fno-inline-functions-called-once, that happens when CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH is enabled, the do_div optimization in arch/arm/include/asm/div64.h doesn't work as expected with the open coded divide function: even if the do_div we are using doesn't have a constant divisor, the compiler still includes the else parts of the optimized do_div macro, and translates the divisions there to use __aeabi_uldivmod, instead of only calling __do_div_asm -> __do_div64 and optimizing/removing everything else out. So to reproduce, gcc 4.6 plus CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y and CONFIG_MTD_NAND_NANDSIM=m should do it, building on armel. After this change, the compiler does the intended thing even with -fno-inline-functions-called-once, and optimizes out as expected the constant handling in the optimized do_div on arm. As this also avoids a build issue, I'm marking for Stable, as I think is applicable for this case.

commit 91f68c89 upstream. Commit 080399aa ("block: don't mark buffers beyond end of disk as mapped") exposed a bug in __getblk_slow that causes mount to hang as it loops infinitely waiting for a buffer that lies beyond the end of the disk to become uptodate. The problem was initially reported by Torsten Hilbrich here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/18/54 and also reported independently here: http://www.sysresccd.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=4511 and then Richard W.M. Jones and Marcos Mello noted a few separate bugzillas also associated with the same issue. This patch has been confirmed to fix: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=835019 The main problem is here, in __getblk_slow: for (;;) { struct buffer_head * bh; int ret; bh = __find_get_block(bdev, block, size); if (bh) return bh; ret = grow_buffers(bdev, block, size); if (ret < 0) return NULL; if (ret == 0) free_more_memory(); } __find_get_block does not find the block, since it will not be marked as mapped, and so grow_buffers is called to fill in the buffers for the associated page. I believe the for (;;) loop is there primarily to retry in the case of memory pressure keeping grow_buffers from succeeding. However, we also continue to loop for other cases, like the block lying beond the end of the disk. So, the fix I came up with is to only loop when grow_buffers fails due to memory allocation issues (return value of 0). The attached patch was tested by myself, Torsten, and Rich, and was found to resolve the problem in call cases.

commit a7deca6f upstream. Commit 7a6f6c29 (cx231xx: use URB_NO_TRANSFER_DMA_MAP) was intended to avoid mapping the DMA buffer for URB twice. This works for the URBs allocated with usb_alloc_urb(), as those are allocated from cohernent DMA pools, but the flag was also added for the VBI and audio URBs, which have a manually allocated area. This leaves the random trash in the structure after allocation as the DMA address, corrupting memory and preventing VBI and audio from working. Letting the USB core map the buffers solves the problem.
