commit 5c05483e upstream. There are certain test configuration of virtual platform which don't have any real console device (uart/pgu). So add tty0 as a fallback console device to allow system to boot and be accessible via telnet Otherwise with ttyS0 as only console, but 8250 disabled in kernel build, init chokes. Reported-by:

commit 0ff8947f upstream. Delalloc write journal reservations only reserve 1 credit, to update the inode if necessary. However, it may happen once in a filesystem's lifetime that a file will cross the 2G threshold, and require the LARGE_FILE feature to be set in the superblock as well, if it was not set already. This overruns the transaction reservation, and can be demonstrated simply on any ext4 filesystem without the LARGE_FILE feature already set: dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile bs=1 seek=2147483646 count=1 \ conv=notrunc of=testfile sync dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile bs=1 seek=2147483647 count=1 \ conv=notrunc of=testfile leads to: EXT4-fs: ext4_do_update_inode:4296: aborting transaction: error 28 in __ext4_handle_dirty_super EXT4-fs error (device loop0) in ext4_do_update_inode:4301: error 28 EXT4-fs error (device loop0) in ext4_reserve_inode_write:4757: Readonly filesystem EXT4-fs error (device loop0) in ext4_dirty_inode:4876: error 28 EXT4-fs error (device loop0) in ext4_da_write_end:2685: error 28 Adjust the number of credits based on whether the flag is already set, and whether the current write may extend past the LARGE_FILE limit.

commit f4bb2981 upstream. If there is a corrupted file system which has directory entries that point at reserved, metadata inodes, prohibit them from being used by treating them the same way we treat Boot Loader inodes --- that is, mark them to be bad inodes. This prohibits them from being opened, deleted, or modified via chmod, chown, utimes, etc. In particular, this prevents a corrupted file system which has a directory entry which points at the journal inode from being deleted and its blocks released, after which point Much Hilarity Ensues.

commit e2bfb088 upstream. The boot loader inode (inode #5) should never be visible in the directory hierarchy, but it's possible if the file system is corrupted that there will be a directory entry that points at inode #5. In order to avoid accidentally trashing it, when such a directory inode is opened, the inode will be marked as a bad inode, so that it's not possible to modify (or read) the inode from userspace. Unfortunately, when we unlink this (invalid/illegal) directory entry, we will put the bad inode on the ophan list, and then when try to unlink the directory, we don't actually remove the bad inode from the orphan list before freeing in-memory inode structure. This means the in-memory orphan list is corrupted, leading to a kernel oops. In addition, avoid truncating a bad inode in ext4_destroy_inode(), since truncating the boot loader inode is not a smart thing to do. Reported-by:

commit 0d0f660d upstream. This patch explicitly disables TX completion interrupt coalescing logic in isert_put_response() and isert_put_datain() that was originally added as an efficiency optimization in commit 95b60f07. It has been reported that this change can trigger ABORT_TASK timeouts under certain small block workloads, where disabling coalescing was required for stability. According to Sagi, this doesn't impact overall performance, so go ahead and disable it for now. Reported-by:

commit d6320cbf upstream. Use truncate_isize_extended() when hole is being created in a file so that ->page_mkwrite() will get called for the partial tail page if it is mmaped (see the first patch in the series for details). Signed-off-by:

Jan Kara authored
commit 90a80202 upstream. ->page_mkwrite() is used by filesystems to allocate blocks under a page which is becoming writeably mmapped in some process' address space. This allows a filesystem to return a page fault if there is not enough space available, user exceeds quota or similar problem happens, rather than silently discarding data later when writepage is called. However VFS fails to call ->page_mkwrite() in all the cases where filesystems need it when blocksize < pagesize. For example when blocksize = 1024, pagesize = 4096 the following is problematic: ftruncate(fd, 0); pwrite(fd, buf, 1024, 0); map = mmap(NULL, 1024, PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); map[0] = 'a'; ----> page_mkwrite() for index 0 is called ftruncate(fd, 10000); /* or even pwrite(fd, buf, 1, 10000) */ mremap(map, 1024, 10000, 0); map[4095] = 'a'; ----> no page_mkwrite() called At the moment ->page_mkwrite() is called, filesystem can allocate only one block for the page because i_size == 1024. Otherwise it would create blocks beyond i_size which is generally undesirable. But later at ->writepage() time, we also need to store data at offset 4095 but we don't have block allocated for it. This patch introduces a helper function filesystems can use to have ->page_mkwrite() called at all the necessary moments. Signed-off-by:

commit a0626e75 upstream. When loading extended attributes, check each entry's value offset to make sure it doesn't collide with the entries. Without this check it is easy to crash the kernel by mounting a malicious FS containing a file with an EA wherein e_value_offs = 0 and e_value_size > 0 and then deleting the EA, which corrupts the name list. (See the f_ea_value_crash test's FS image in e2fsprogs for an example.) Signed-off-by:

commit abe5f972 upstream. The zone allocation batches can easily underflow due to higher-order allocations or spills to remote nodes. On SMP that's fine, because underflows are expected from concurrency and dealt with by returning 0. But on UP, zone_page_state will just return a wrapped unsigned long, which will get past the <= 0 check and then consider the zone eligible until its watermarks are hit. Commit 3a025760 ("mm: page_alloc: spill to remote nodes before waking kswapd") already made the counter-resetting use atomic_long_read() to accomodate underflows from remote spills, but it didn't go all the way with it. Make it clear that these batches are expected to go negative regardless of concurrency, and use atomic_long_read() everywhere.

commit 65b38851 upstream. The usage of pid_ns->child_reaper->nsproxy->net_ns in nfs_server_list_open and nfs_client_list_open is not safe. /proc for a pid namespace can remain mounted after the all of the process in that pid namespace have exited. There are also times before the initial process in a pid namespace has started or after the initial process in a pid namespace has exited where pid_ns->child_reaper can be NULL or stale. Making the idiom pid_ns->child_reaper->nsproxy a double whammy of problems. Luckily all that needs to happen is to move /proc/fs/nfsfs/servers and /proc/fs/nfsfs/volumes under /proc/net to /proc/net/nfsfs/servers and /proc/net/nfsfs/volumes and add a symlink from the original location, and to use seq_open_net as it has been designed.

commit a968bed7 upstream. Unlike the clocks management code for runtime PM, the code used for system suspend does not check the pm_clock_entry.status field. If pm_clk_acquire() failed, ce->status will be PCE_STATUS_ERROR, and ce->clk will be a negative error code (e.g. 0xfffffffe = -2 = -ENOENT). Depending on the clock implementation, suspend or resume may crash with: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000026 (CCF clk_disable() has an IS_ERR_OR_NULL() check, while CCF clk_enable() only has a NULL check; pre-CCF implementations may behave differently) While just checking for PCE_STATUS_ERROR would be sufficient, it doesn't hurt to use the same state machine as is done for runtime PM, as this makes the two versions more similar, and eligible for a future consolidation.

commit 2c80929c upstream. The third argument of fuse_get_user_pages() "nbytesp" refers to the number of bytes a caller asked to pack into fuse request. This value may be lesser than capacity of fuse request or iov_iter. So fuse_get_user_pages() must ensure that *nbytesp won't grow. Now, when helper iov_iter_get_pages() performs all hard work of extracting pages from iov_iter, it can be done by passing properly calculated "maxsize" to the helper. The other caller of iov_iter_get_pages() (dio_refill_pages()) doesn't need this capability, so pass LONG_MAX as the maxsize argument here. Fixes: c9c37e2e ("fuse: switch to iov_iter_get_pages()") Reported-by:

The crash happens right when the first user process is spawned: [ 54.451346] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000004 [ 54.451346] [ 54.571516] CPU: 1 PID: 1 Comm: init Not tainted 3.16.0-rc2-00211-gd7933ab7 #96 [ 54.666431] Call Trace: [ 54.698453] [0000000000762f8c] panic+0xb0/0x224 [ 54.759071] [000000000045cf68] do_exit+0x948/0x960 [ 54.823123] [000000000042cbc0] fault_in_user_windows+0xe0/0x100 [ 54.902036] [0000000000404ad0] __handle_user_windows+0x0/0x10 [ 54.978662] Press Stop-A (L1-A) to return to the boot prom [ 55.050713] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000004 Further investigation showed that compiling only per_cpu_patch() with an older compiler fixes the boot. Detailed analysis showed that the function is not being miscompiled by gcc-4.9, but it is using a different register allocation ordering. With the gcc-4.9 compiled function, something during the code patching causes some of the %i* input registers to get corrupted. Perhaps we have a TLB miss path into the firmware that is deep enough to cause a register window spill and subsequent restore when we get back from the TLB miss trap. Let's plug this up by doing two things: 1) Stop using the firmware stack for client interface calls into the firmware. Just use the kernel's stack. 2) As soon as we can, call into a new function "start_early_boot()" to put a one-register-window buffer between the firmware's deepest stack frame and the top-most initial kernel one.

[ Upstream commit d195b71b ] swapper_low_pmd_dir and swapper_pud_dir are actually completely useless and unnecessary. We just need swapper_pg_dir[]. Naturally the other page table chunks will be allocated on an as-needed basis. Since the kernel actually accesses these tables in the PAGE_OFFSET view, there is not even a TLB locality advantage of placing them in the kernel image. Use the hard coded vmlinux.ld.S slot for swapper_pg_dir which is naturally page aligned. Increase MAX_BANKS to 1024 in order to handle heavily fragmented virtual guests. Even with this MAX_BANKS increase, the kernel is 20K+ smaller. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit ee6a9333 ] This patch attempts to do a few things. The highlights are: 1) enable SPARSE_IRQ unconditionally, 2) kills off !SPARSE_IRQ code 3) allocates ivector_table at boot time and 4) default to cookie only VIRQ mechanism for supported firmware. The first firmware with cookie only support for me appears on T5. You can optionally force the HV firmware to not cookie only mode which is the sysino support. The sysino is a deprecated HV mechanism according to the most recent SPARC Virtual Machine Specification. HV_GRP_INTR is what controls the cookie/sysino firmware versioning. The history of this interface is: 1) Major version 1.0 only supported sysino based interrupt interfaces. 2) Major version 2.0 added cookie based VIRQs, however due to the fact that OSs were using the VIRQs without negoatiating major version 2.0 (Linux and Solaris are both guilty), the VIRQs calls were allowed even with major version 1.0 To complicate things even further, the VIRQ interfaces were only actually hooked up in the hypervisor for LDC interrupt sources. VIRQ calls on other device types would result in HV_EINVAL errors. So effectively, major version 2.0 is unusable. 3) Major version 3.0 was created to signal use of VIRQs and the fact that the hypervisor has these calls hooked up for all interrupt sources, not just those for LDC devices. A new boot option is provided should cookie only HV support have issues. hvirq - this is the version for HV_GRP_INTR. This is related to HV API versioning. The code attempts major=3 first by default. The option can be used to override this default. I've tested with SPARSE_IRQ on T5-8, M7-4 and T4-X and Jalap?no. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit bb4e6e85 ] In order to accomodate embedded per-cpu allocation with large numbers of cpus and numa nodes, we have to use as much virtual address space as possible for the vmalloc region. Otherwise we can get things like: PERCPU: max_distance=0x380001c10000 too large for vmalloc space 0xff00000000 So, once we select a value for PAGE_OFFSET, derive the size of the vmalloc region based upon that.

[ Upstream commit c06240c7 ] For sparse memory configurations, the vmemmap array behaves terribly and it takes up an inordinate amount of space in the BSS section of the kernel image unconditionally. Just build huge PMDs and look them up just like we do for TLB misses in the vmalloc area. Kernel BSS shrinks by about 2MB. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 0dd5b7b0 ] If max_phys_bits needs to be > 43 (f.e. for T4 chips), things like DEBUG_PAGEALLOC stop working because the 3-level page tables only can cover up to 43 bits. Another problem is that when we increased MAX_PHYS_ADDRESS_BITS up to 47, several statically allocated tables became enormous. Compounding this is that we will need to support up to 49 bits of physical addressing for M7 chips. The two tables in question are sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap and kpte_linear_bitmap. The first holds a bitmap, with 1 bit for each 4MB chunk of physical memory, indicating whether that chunk actually exists in the machine and is valid. The second table is a set of 2-bit values which tell how large of a mapping (4MB, 256MB, 2GB, 16GB, respectively) we can use at each 256MB chunk of ram in the system. These tables are huge and take up an enormous amount of the BSS section of the sparc64 kernel image. Specifically, the sparc64_valid_addr_bitmap is 4MB, and the kpte_linear_bitmap is 128K. So let's solve the space wastage and the DEBUG_PAGEALLOC problem at the same time, by using the kernel page tables (as designed) to manage this information. We have to keep using large mappings when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is disabled, and we do this by encoding huge PMDs and PUDs. On a T4-2 with 256GB of ram the kernel page table takes up 16K with DEBUG_PAGEALLOC disabled and 256MB with it enabled. Furthermore, this memory is dynamically allocated at run time rather than coded statically into the kernel image. Signed-off-by:
