       "Two oneliners addressing NOHZ failures:
      
         - Use a bitmask to check for the pending timer softirq and not the
           bit number. The existing code using the bit number checked for
           the wrong bit, which caused timers to either expire late or stop
           completely.
      
         - Make the nohz evaluation on interrupt exit more robust. The
           existing code did not re-arm the hardware when interrupting a
           running softirq in task context (ksoftirqd or tail of
           local_bh_enable()), which caused timers to either expire late
           or stop completely"

      Partially revert "block: fail op_is_write() requests to read-only partitions" · a32e236e
      Linus Torvalds authored
      It turns out that commit 721c7fc7 ("block: fail op_is_write()
      requests to read-only partitions"), while obviously correct, causes
      problems for some older lvm2 installations.
      
      The reason is that the lvm snapshotting will continue to write to the
      snapshow COW volume, even after the volume has been marked read-only.
      End result: snapshot failure.
      
      This has actually been fixed in newer version of the lvm2 tool, but the
      old tools still exist, and the breakage was reported both in the kernel
      bugzilla and in the Debian bugzilla:
      
        https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200439
        https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=900442
      
      The lvm2 fix is here
      
        https://sourceware.org/git/?p=lvm2.git;a=commit;h=a6fdb9d9d70f51c49ad11a87ab4243344e6701a3
      
      but until everybody has updated to recent versions, we'll have to weaken
      the "never write to read-only partitions" check.  It now allows the
      write to happen, but causes a warning, something like this:

      Note that this is a "revert" in behavior only.  I'm leaving alone the
      actual code cleanups in commit 721c7fc7, but letting the previously
      uncaught request go through with a warning instead of stopping it.

      netlink: Don't shift on 64 for ngroups · 91874ecf
      Dmitry Safonov authored
      It's legal to have 64 groups for netlink_sock.
      
      As user-supplied nladdr->nl_groups is __u32, it's possible to subscribe
      only to first 32 groups.
      
      The check for correctness of .bind() userspace supplied parameter
      is done by applying mask made from ngroups shift. Which broke Android
      as they have 64 groups and the shift for mask resulted in an overflow.

      The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.
      
      The main changes are:
      
      1) Fix bpftool percpu_array dump by using correct roundup to next
         multiple of 8 for the value size, from Yonghong.
      
      2) Fix in AF_XDP's __xsk_rcv_zc() to not returning frames back to
         allocator since driver will recycle frame anyway in case of an
         error, from Jakub.
      
      3) Fix up BPF test_lwt_seg6local test cases to final iproute2
         syntax, from Mathieu.

      net/smc: no cursor update send in state SMC_INIT · 5607016c
      Ursula Braun authored
      If a writer blocked condition is received without data, the current
      consumer cursor is immediately sent. Servers could already receive this
      condition in state SMC_INIT without finished tx-setup. This patch
      avoids sending a consumer cursor update in this case.

      jfs: Fix usercopy whitelist for inline inode data · 961b33c2
      Kees Cook authored
      Bart Massey reported what turned out to be a usercopy whitelist false
      positive in JFS when symlink contents exceeded 128 bytes. The inline
      inode data (i_inline) is actually designed to overflow into the "extended
      area" following it (i_inline_ea) when needed. So the whitelist needed to
      be expanded to include both i_inline and i_inline_ea (the whole size
      of which is calculated internally using IDATASIZE, 256, instead of
      sizeof(i_inline), 128).
      
      $ cd /mnt/jfs
      $ touch $(perl -e 'print "B" x 250')
      $ ln -s B* b
      $ ls -l >/dev/null
      
      [  249.436410] Bad or missing usercopy whitelist? Kernel memory exposure attempt detected from SLUB object 'jfs_ip' (offset 616, size 250)!
