commit d0efa8f2 upstream. SYNCH bit and IV bit of RXCW register are sticky. Before examining these bits, RXCW should be read twice to filter out one-time false events and have correct values for these bits. Incorrect values of these bits in link check logic can cause weird link stability issues if auto-negotiation fails. Reported-by:

commit efd82118 upstream. On rt2x00_dmastart() we increase index specified by Q_INDEX and on rt2x00_dmadone() we increase index specified by Q_INDEX_DONE. So entries between Q_INDEX_DONE and Q_INDEX are those we currently process in the hardware. Entries between Q_INDEX and Q_INDEX_DONE are those we can submit to the hardware. 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. From practical standpoint this fixes RX queue stall, usually reproducible in AP mode, like for example reported here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=828824Reported-and-tested-by:

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:

commit 5167e8d5 upstream. Thanks to Charles Wang for spotting the defects in the current code: - If we go idle during the sample window -- after sampling, we get a negative bias because we can negate our own sample. - If we wake up during the sample window we get a positive bias because we push the sample to a known active period. So rewrite the entire nohz load-avg muck once again, now adding copious documentation to the code. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit c4686c71 upstream. Commit d640113f introduced a regression on SMP systems where the processor core with ACPI id zero is disabled (typically should be the case because of hyperthreading). The regression got spread through stable kernels. On 3.0.X it got introduced via 3.0.18. Such platforms may be rare, but do exist. Look out for a disabled processor with acpi_id 0 in dmesg: ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x00] lapic_id[0x10] disabled) This problem has been observed on a: HP Proliant BL280c G6 blade This patch restricts the introduced workaround to platforms with nr_cpu_ids <= 1.

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. Reported-by:

commit 596fd462 upstream. We don't need to open code the divide function, just use div_u64 that already exists and do the same job. 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. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

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. Signed-off-by:

commit 4bf2bba3 upstream. If page migration cannot charge the temporary page to the memcg, migrate_pages() will return -ENOMEM. This isn't considered in memory compaction however, and the loop continues to iterate over all pageblocks trying to isolate and migrate pages. If a small number of very large memcgs happen to be oom, however, these attempts will mostly be futile leading to an enormous amout of cpu consumption due to the page migration failures. This patch will short circuit and fail memory compaction if migrate_pages() returns -ENOMEM. COMPACT_PARTIAL is returned in case some migrations were successful so that the page allocator will retry.

commit d8adde17 upstream. kswapd_stop() is called to destroy the kswapd work thread when all memory of a NUMA node has been offlined. But kswapd_stop() only terminates the work thread without resetting NODE_DATA(nid)->kswapd to NULL. The stale pointer will prevent kswapd_run() from creating a new work thread when adding memory to the memory-less NUMA node again. Eventually the stale pointer may cause invalid memory access.

commit 6c0544e2 upstream. In chunk_aligned_read() we are adding data_offset before calling is_badblock. But is_badblock also adds data_offset, so that is bad. So move the addition of data_offset to after the call to is_badblock. This bug was introduced by commit 31c176ec md/raid5: avoid reading from known bad blocks. which first appeared in 3.0. So that patch is suitable for any -stable kernel from 3.0.y onwards. However it will need minor revision for most of those (as the comment didn't appear until recently). Signed-off-by:

commit 58bf8062 upstream. After banging my head against this for the past few months, I still don't see how this could possible race under the premise that once an irq bit is masked in PM_IMR and reset in PM_IIR it won't show up again until we unmask it in PM_IMR. Still, we have reports of this being seen in the wild. Now Bspec has this little bit of lovely language in the PMIIR register: Public SNB Docs, Vol3Part2, 2.5.14 "PMIIR": "For each bit, the IIR can store a second pending interrupt if two or more of the same interrupt conditions occur before the first condition is cleared. Upon clearing the interrupt, the IIR bit will momentarily go low, then return high to indicate there is another interrupt pending." Now if we presume that PMIMR only prevent new interrupts from being queued, we could easily end up masking an interrupt and clearing it, but the 2nd pending interrupt setting the bit in PMIIR right away again. Which leads, the next time the irq handler runs, to hitting the WARN. Also, no bad side effects of this have ever been reported. And we've tracked down our issues with the gpu turbo getting stuck to bogus interrupt generation limits in th RPLIMIT register. So let's just rip out this WARN as bogus and call it a day. The only shallow thing here is that this 2-deep irq queue in the hw makes you wonder how racy the windows irq handler is ... Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42907Acked-by:

commit 047fe360 upstream. Dave Jones reported a kernel BUG at mm/slub.c:3474! triggered by splice_shrink_spd() called from vmsplice_to_pipe() commit 35f3d14d (pipe: add support for shrinking and growing pipes) added capability to adjust pipe->buffers. Problem is some paths don't hold pipe mutex and assume pipe->buffers doesn't change for their duration. Fix this by adding nr_pages_max field in struct splice_pipe_desc, and use it in place of pipe->buffers where appropriate. splice_shrink_spd() loses its struct pipe_inode_info argument. Reported-by:

commit e4eed03f upstream. In the x86 32bit PAE CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y case while holding the mmap_sem for reading, cmpxchg8b cannot be used to read pmd contents under Xen. So instead of dealing only with "consistent" pmdvals in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() (which would be conceptually simpler) we let pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() deal with pmdvals where the low 32bit and high 32bit could be inconsistent (to avoid having to use cmpxchg8b). The only guarantee we get from pmd_read_atomic is that if the low part of the pmd was found null, the high part will be null too (so the pmd will be considered unstable). And if the low part of the pmd is found "stable" later, then it means the whole pmd was read atomically (because after a pmd is stable, neither MADV_DONTNEED nor page faults can alter it anymore, and we read the high part after the low part). In the 32bit PAE x86 case, it is enough to read the low part of the pmdval atomically to declare the pmd as "stable" and that's true for THP and no THP, furthermore in the THP case we also have a barrier() that will prevent any inconsistent pmdvals to be cached by a later re-read of the *pmd.

commit 26c19178 upstream.

Only archs with 64bit large pmd_t and 32bit unsigned long should be affected. With THP enabled the barrier() in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() would partly hide the bug when the pmd transition from none to stable, by forcing a re-read of the *pmd in pmd_offset_map_lock, but when THP is enabled a new set of problem arises by the fact could then transition freely in any of the none, pmd_trans_huge or pmd_trans_stable states. So making the barrier in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() unconditional isn't good idea and it would be a flakey solution. This should be fully fixed by introducing a pmd_read_atomic that reads the pmd in order with THP disabled, or by reading the pmd atomically with cmpxchg8b with THP enabled. Luckily this new race condition only triggers in the places that must already be covered by pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() so the fix is localized there but this bug is not related to THP. NOTE: this can trigger on x86 32bit systems with PAE enabled with more than 4G of ram, otherwise the high part of the pmd will never risk to be truncated because it would be zero at all times, in turn so hiding the SMP race.
