      mm, mprotect: flush TLB if potentially racing with a parallel reclaim leaving stale TLB entries · 3ea27719
      Mel Gorman authored
      Nadav Amit identified a theoritical race between page reclaim and
      mprotect due to TLB flushes being batched outside of the PTL being held.
      
      He described the race as follows:
      
              CPU0                            CPU1
              ----                            ----
                                              user accesses memory using RW PTE
                                              [PTE now cached in TLB]
              try_to_unmap_one()
              ==> ptep_get_and_clear()
              ==> set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending()
                                              mprotect(addr, PROT_READ)
                                              ==> change_pte_range()
                                              ==> [ PTE non-present - no flush ]
      
                                              user writes using cached RW PTE
              ...
      
              try_to_unmap_flush()
      
      The same type of race exists for reads when protecting for PROT_NONE and
      also exists for operations that can leave an old TLB entry behind such
      as munmap, mremap and madvise.
      
      For some operations like mprotect, it's not necessarily a data integrity
      issue but it is a correctness issue as there is a window where an
      mprotect that limits access still allows access.  For munmap, it's
      potentially a data integrity issue although the race is massive as an
      munmap, mmap and return to userspace must all complete between the
      window when reclaim drops the PTL and flushes the TLB.  However, it's
      theoritically possible so handle this issue by flushing the mm if
      reclaim is potentially currently batching TLB flushes.
      
      Other instances where a flush is required for a present pte should be ok
      as either the page lock is held preventing parallel reclaim or a page
      reference count is elevated preventing a parallel free leading to
      corruption.  In the case of page_mkclean there isn't an obvious path
      that userspace could take advantage of without using the operations that
      are guarded by this patch.  Other users such as gup as a race with
      reclaim looks just at PTEs.  huge page variants should be ok as they
      don't race with reclaim.  mincore only looks at PTEs.  userfault also
      should be ok as if a parallel reclaim takes place, it will either fault
      the page back in or read some of the data before the flush occurs
      triggering a fault.
      
      Note that a variant of this patch was acked by Andy Lutomirski but this
      was for the x86 parts on top of his PCID work which didn't make the 4.13
      merge window as expected.  His ack is dropped from this version and
      there will be a follow-on patch on top of PCID that will include his
      ack.

      mm/hugetlb.c: __get_user_pages ignores certain follow_hugetlb_page errors · 2be7cfed
      Daniel Jordan authored
      Commit 9a291a7c ("mm/hugetlb: report -EHWPOISON not -EFAULT when
      FOLL_HWPOISON is specified") causes __get_user_pages to ignore certain
      errors from follow_hugetlb_page.  After such error, __get_user_pages
      subsequently calls faultin_page on the same VMA and start address that
      follow_hugetlb_page failed on instead of returning the error immediately
      as it should.
      
      In follow_hugetlb_page, when hugetlb_fault returns a value covered under
      VM_FAULT_ERROR, follow_hugetlb_page returns it without setting nr_pages
      to 0 as __get_user_pages expects in this case, which causes the
      following to happen in __get_user_pages: the "while (nr_pages)" check
      succeeds, we skip the "if (!vma..." check because we got a VMA the last
      time around, we find no page with follow_page_mask, and we call
      faultin_page, which calls hugetlb_fault for the second time.
      
      This issue also slightly changes how __get_user_pages works.  Before, it
      only returned error if it had made no progress (i = 0).  But now,
      follow_hugetlb_page can clobber "i" with an error code since its new
      return path doesn't check for progress.  So if "i" is nonzero before a
      failing call to follow_hugetlb_page, that indication of progress is lost
      and __get_user_pages can return error even if some pages were
      successfully pinned.
      
      To fix this, change follow_hugetlb_page so that it updates nr_pages,
      allowing __get_user_pages to fail immediately and restoring the "error
      only if no progress" behavior to __get_user_pages.
      
      Tested that __get_user_pages returns when expected on error from
      hugetlb_fault in follow_hugetlb_page.
      
      Fixes: 9a291a7c ("mm/hugetlb: report -EHWPOISON not -EFAULT when FOLL_HWPOISON is specified")

      platform/x86: dell-wmi: Fix driver interface version query · 51391caf
      Andy Lutomirski authored
      When I converted dell-wmi to the new bus infrastructure, I left the
      call to dell_wmi_check_descriptor_buffer() in dell_wmi_init().  This
      could cause two problems:
      
       - An error message when loading the driver on a system without
         dell-wmi.  We'd try to read the event descriptor even if the WMI
         GUID wasn't there.
      
       - A possible race if dell-wmi was loaded manually before wmi was
         fully initialized.
      
      Fix it by moving the call to the probe function where it belongs.

      udp6: fix jumbogram reception · cb891fa6
      Paolo Abeni authored
      Since commit 67a51780 ("ipv6: udp: leverage scratch area
      helpers") udp6_recvmsg() read the skb len from the scratch area,
      to avoid a cache miss.
      But the UDP6 rx path support RFC 2675 UDPv6 jumbograms, and their
      length exceeds the 16 bits available in the scratch area. As a side
      effect the length returned by recvmsg() is:
      <ingress datagram len> % (1<<16)
      
      This commit addresses the issue allocating one more bit in the
      IP6CB flags field and setting it for incoming jumbograms.
      Such field is still in the first cacheline, so at recvmsg()
      time we can check it and fallback to access skb->len if
      required, without a measurable overhead.

      virtio_net: fix truesize for mergeable buffers · 1daa8790
      Michael S. Tsirkin authored
      Seth Forshee noticed a performance degradation with some workloads.
      This turns out to be due to packet drops.  Euan Kemp noticed that this
      is because we drop all packets where length exceeds the truesize, but
      for some packets we add in extra memory without updating the truesize.
      This in turn was kept around unchanged from ab7db917 ("virtio-net:
      auto-tune mergeable rx buffer size for improved performance").  That
      commit had an internal reason not to account for the extra space: not
      enough bits to do it.  No longer true so let's account for the allocated
      length exactly.
      
      Many thanks to Seth Forshee for the report and bisecting and Euan Kemp
      for debugging the issue.

      mv643xx_eth: fix of_irq_to_resource() error check · cfbcb61f
      Sergei Shtylyov authored
      of_irq_to_resource() has recently been  fixed to return negative error #'s
      along with 0 in case of failure,  however the Marvell MV643xx Ethernet
      driver still only regards 0  as invalid IRQ -- fix it up.

      ipv4: fib: Fix NULL pointer deref during fib_sync_down_dev() · 71ed7ee3
      Ido Schimmel authored
      Michał reported a NULL pointer deref during fib_sync_down_dev() when
      unregistering a netdevice. The problem is that we don't check for
      'in_dev' being NULL, which can happen in very specific cases.
      
      Usually routes are flushed upon NETDEV_DOWN sent in either the netdev or
      the inetaddr notification chains. However, if an interface isn't
      configured with any IP address, then it's possible for host routes to be
      flushed following NETDEV_UNREGISTER, after NULLing dev->ip_ptr in
      inetdev_destroy().
      
      To reproduce:
      $ ip link add type dummy
      $ ip route add local 1.1.1.0/24 dev dummy0
      $ ip link del dev dummy0
      
      Fix this by checking for the presence of 'in_dev' before referencing it.

      net: phy: Correctly process PHY_HALTED in phy_stop_machine() · 7ad813f2
      Florian Fainelli authored
      Marc reported that he was not getting the PHY library adjust_link()
      callback function to run when calling phy_stop() + phy_disconnect()
      which does not indeed happen because we set the state machine to
      PHY_HALTED but we don't get to run it to process this state past that
      point.
      
      Fix this with a synchronous call to phy_state_machine() in order to have
      the state machine actually act on PHY_HALTED, set the PHY device's link
      down, turn the network device's carrier off and finally call the
      adjust_link() function.

      Pull workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo:
       "Two notable fixes.
      
         - While adding NUMA affinity support to unbound workqueues, the
           assumption that an unbound workqueue with max_active == 1 is
           ordered was broken.
      
           The plan was to use explicit alloc_ordered_workqueue() for those
           cases. Unfortunately, I forgot to update the documentation properly
           and we grew a handful of use cases which depend on that assumption.
      
           While we want to convert them to alloc_ordered_workqueue(), we
           don't really lose anything by enforcing ordered execution on
           unbound max_active == 1 workqueues and it doesn't make sense to
           risk subtle bugs. Restore the assumption.
      
         - Workqueue assumes that CPU <-> NUMA node mapping remains static.
      
           This is a general assumption - we don't have any synchronization
           mechanism around CPU <-> node mapping. Unfortunately, powerpc may
           change the mapping dynamically leading to crashes. Michael added a
           workaround so that we at least don't crash while powerpc hotplug
           code gets updated"

      parisc: Define CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN · 74ad3d28
      Babu Moger authored
      While working on enabling queued rwlock on SPARC, found this following
      code in include/asm-generic/qrwlock.h which uses CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN
      to clear a byte.
      
      static inline u8 *__qrwlock_write_byte(struct qrwlock *lock)
       {
      	return (u8 *)lock + 3 * IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN);
       }
      
      Problem is many of the fixed big endian architectures don't define
      CPU_BIG_ENDIAN and clears the wrong byte.
      
      Define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN for parisc architecture to fix it.
