commit 3a3bfb61 upstream. __ratelimit() can be considered an inverted bool test because it returns true when not ratelimited. Several tests in the kernel tree use this __ratelimit() function incorrectly. No net_ratelimit uses are incorrect currently though. Most uses of net_ratelimit are to log something via printk or pr_<level>. In order to minimize the uses of net_ratelimit, and to start standardizing the code style used for __ratelimit() and net_ratelimit(), add a net_ratelimited_function() macro and net_<level>_ratelimited() logging macros similar to pr_<level>_ratelimited that use the global net_ratelimit instead of a static per call site "struct ratelimit_state".

commit 223b02d9 upstream. "len" contains sizeof(nf_ct_ext) and size of extensions. In a worst case it can contain all extensions. Bellow you can find sizes for all types of extensions. Their sum is definitely bigger than 256. nf_ct_ext_types[0]->len = 24 nf_ct_ext_types[1]->len = 32 nf_ct_ext_types[2]->len = 24 nf_ct_ext_types[3]->len = 32 nf_ct_ext_types[4]->len = 152 nf_ct_ext_types[5]->len = 2 nf_ct_ext_types[6]->len = 16 nf_ct_ext_types[7]->len = 8 I have seen "len" up to 280 and my host has crashes w/o this patch. The right way to fix this problem is reducing the size of the ecache extension (4) and Florian is going to do this, but these changes will be quite large to be appropriate for a stable tree.

commit af5040da upstream. trace_block_rq_complete does not take into account that request can be partially completed, so we can get the following incorrect output of blkparser: C R 232 + 240 [0] C R 240 + 232 [0] C R 248 + 224 [0] C R 256 + 216 [0] but should be: C R 232 + 8 [0] C R 240 + 8 [0] C R 248 + 8 [0] C R 256 + 8 [0] Also, the whole output summary statistics of completed requests and final throughput will be incorrect. This patch takes into account real completion size of the request and fixes wrong completion accounting.

commit 4291086b upstream. The tty atomic_write_lock does not provide an exclusion guarantee for the tty driver if the termios settings are LECHO & !OPOST. And since it is unexpected and not allowed to call TTY buffer helpers like tty_insert_flip_string concurrently, this may lead to crashes when concurrect writers call pty_write. In that case the following two writers: * the ECHOing from a workqueue and * pty_write from the process race and can overflow the corresponding TTY buffer like follows. If we look into tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag, there is: int space = __tty_buffer_request_room(port, goal, flags); struct tty_buffer *tb = port->buf.tail; ... memcpy(char_buf_ptr(tb, tb->used), chars, space); ... tb->used += space; so the race of the two can result in something like this: A B __tty_buffer_request_room __tty_buffer_request_room memcpy(buf(tb->used), ...) tb->used += space; memcpy(buf(tb->used), ...) ->BOOM B's memcpy is past the tty_buffer due to the previous A's tb->used increment. Since the N_TTY line discipline input processing can output concurrently with a tty write, obtain the N_TTY ldisc output_lock to serialize echo output with normal tty writes. This ensures the tty buffer helper tty_insert_flip_string is not called concurrently and everything is fine. Note that this is nicely reproducible by an ordinary user using forkpty and some setup around that (raw termios + ECHO). And it is present in kernels at least after commit d945cb9c (pty: Rework the pty layer to use the normal buffering logic) in 2.6.31-rc3. js: add more info to the commit log js: switch to bool js: lock unconditionally js: lock only the tty->ops->write call References: CVE-2014-0196 Reported-and-tested-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> [bwh: Backported to 3.2: output_lock is a member of struct tty_struct] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit 6b0df682 upstream. The functions for data copying copyarea_foreward_8bpp and copyarea_backward_8bpp are buggy, they produce screen corruption. This patch fixes the functions and moves the logic to one function "copyarea_8bpp". For simplicity, the function only handles copying that is aligned on 8 pixes. If we copy an unaligned area, generic function cfb_copyarea is used.

commit a585f87c upstream. The scenario here is that someone calls enable_irq_wake() from somewhere in the code. This will result in the lockdep producing a backtrace as can be seen below. In my case, this problem is triggered when using the wl1271 (TI WlCore) driver found in drivers/net/wireless/ti/ . The problem cause is rather obvious from the backtrace, but let's outline the dependency. enable_irq_wake() grabs the IRQ buslock in irq_set_irq_wake(), which in turns calls mxs_gpio_set_wake_irq() . But mxs_gpio_set_wake_irq() calls enable_irq_wake() again on the one-level-higher IRQ , thus it tries to grab the IRQ buslock again in irq_set_irq_wake() . Because the spinlock in irq_set_irq_wake()->irq_get_desc_buslock()->__irq_get_desc_lock() is not marked as recursive, lockdep will spew the stuff below. We know we can safely re-enter the lock, so use IRQ_GC_INIT_NESTED_LOCK to fix the spew. ============================================= [ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ] 3.10.33-00012-gf06b763-dirty #61 Not tainted --------------------------------------------- kworker/0:1/18 is trying to acquire lock: (&irq_desc_lock_class){-.-...}, at: [<c00685f0>] __irq_get_desc_lock+0x48/0x88 but task is already holding lock: (&irq_desc_lock_class){-.-...}, at: [<c00685f0>] __irq_get_desc_lock+0x48/0x88 other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 ---- lock(&irq_desc_lock_class); lock(&irq_desc_lock_class); *** DEADLOCK *** May be due to missing lock nesting notation 3 locks held by kworker/0:1/18: #0: (events){.+.+.+}, at: [<c0036308>] process_one_work+0x134/0x4a4 #1: ((&fw_work->work)){+.+.+.}, at: [<c0036308>] process_one_work+0x134/0x4a4 #2: (&irq_desc_lock_class){-.-...}, at: [<c00685f0>] __irq_get_desc_lock+0x48/0x88 stack backtrace: CPU: 0 PID: 18 Comm: kworker/0:1 Not tainted 3.10.33-00012-gf06b763-dirty #61 Workqueue: events request_firmware_work_func [<c0013eb4>] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xf0) from [<c0011c74>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) [<c0011c74>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) from [<c005bb08>] (__lock_acquire+0x140c/0x1a64) [<c005bb08>] (__lock_acquire+0x140c/0x1a64) from [<c005c6a8>] (lock_acquire+0x9c/0x104) [<c005c6a8>] (lock_acquire+0x9c/0x104) from [<c051d5a4>] (_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x44/0x58) [<c051d5a4>] (_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x44/0x58) from [<c00685f0>] (__irq_get_desc_lock+0x48/0x88) [<c00685f0>] (__irq_get_desc_lock+0x48/0x88) from [<c0068e78>] (irq_set_irq_wake+0x20/0xf4) [<c0068e78>] (irq_set_irq_wake+0x20/0xf4) from [<c027260c>] (mxs_gpio_set_wake_irq+0x1c/0x24) [<c027260c>] (mxs_gpio_set_wake_irq+0x1c/0x24) from [<c0068cf4>] (set_irq_wake_real+0x30/0x44) [<c0068cf4>] (set_irq_wake_real+0x30/0x44) from [<c0068ee4>] (irq_set_irq_wake+0x8c/0xf4) [<c0068ee4>] (irq_set_irq_wake+0x8c/0xf4) from [<c0310748>] (wlcore_nvs_cb+0x10c/0x97c) [<c0310748>] (wlcore_nvs_cb+0x10c/0x97c) from [<c02be5e8>] (request_firmware_work_func+0x38/0x58) [<c02be5e8>] (request_firmware_work_func+0x38/0x58) from [<c0036394>] (process_one_work+0x1c0/0x4a4) [<c0036394>] (process_one_work+0x1c0/0x4a4) from [<c0036a4c>] (worker_thread+0x138/0x394) [<c0036a4c>] (worker_thread+0x138/0x394) from [<c003cb74>] (kthread+0xa4/0xb0) [<c003cb74>] (kthread+0xa4/0xb0) from [<c000ee00>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x34) wlcore: loaded Signed-off-by: Marek Vasut <marex@denx.de> Acked-by: Shawn Guo <shawn.guo@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit 4991a628 upstream. A fl->fl_break_time of 0 has a special meaning to the lease break code that basically means "never break the lease". knfsd uses this to ensure that leases don't disappear out from under it. Unfortunately, the code in __break_lease can end up passing this value to wait_event_interruptible as a timeout, which prevents it from going to sleep at all. This causes __break_lease to spin in a tight loop and causes soft lockups. Fix this by ensuring that we pass a minimum value of 1 as a timeout instead. Cc: J.

commit 8a4aeec8 upstream. The AHCI spec allows implementations to issue commands in tag order rather than FIFO order: 5.3.2.12 P:SelectCmd HBA sets pSlotLoc = (pSlotLoc + 1) mod (CAP.NCS + 1) or HBA selects the command to issue that has had the PxCI bit set to '1' longer than any other command pending to be issued. The result is that commands posted sequentially (time-wise) may play out of sequence when issued by hardware. This behavior has likely been hidden by drives that arrange for commands to complete in issue order. However, it appears recent drives (two from different vendors that we have found so far) inflict out-of-order completions as a matter of course. So, we need to take care to maintain ordered submission, otherwise we risk triggering a drive to fall out of sequential-io automation and back to random-io processing, which incurs large latency and degrades throughput. This issue was found in simple benchmarks where QD=2 seq-write performance was 30-50% *greater* than QD=32 seq-write performance. Tagging for -stable and making the change globally since it has a low risk-to-reward ratio. Also, word is that recent versions of an unnamed OS also does it this way now. So, drives in the field are already experienced with this tag ordering scheme.

commit 43751a1b upstream. This patch fixes the hardware cursor on mach64 when font width is not a multiple of 8 pixels. If you load such a font, the cursor is expanded to the next 8-byte boundary and a part of the next character after the cursor is not visible. For example, when you load a font with 12-pixel width, the cursor width is 16 pixels and when the cursor is displayed, 4 pixels of the next character are not visible. The reason is this: atyfb_cursor is called with proper parameters to load an image that is 12-pixel wide. However, the number is aligned on the next 8-pixel boundary on the line "unsigned int width = (cursor->image.width + 7) >> 3;" and the whole function acts as it is was loading a 16-pixel image. This patch fixes it so that the value written to the framebuffer is padded with 0xaaaa (the transparent pattern) when the image size it not a multiple of 8 pixels. The transparent pattern causes that the cursor will not interfere with the next character.

commit c29dd869 upstream. This patch fixes mach64 to use unaligned access to the font bitmap. This fixes unaligned access warning on sparc64 when 14x8 font is loaded. On x86(64), unaligned access is handled in hardware, so both functions le32_to_cpup and get_unaligned_le32 perform the same operation. On RISC machines, unaligned access is not handled in hardware, so we better use get_unaligned_le32 to avoid the unaligned trap and warning.

commit 00a9d699 upstream. The function cfb_copyarea is buggy when the copy operation is not aligned on long boundary (4 bytes on 32-bit machines, 8 bytes on 64-bit machines). How to reproduce: - use x86-64 machine - use a framebuffer driver without acceleration (for example uvesafb) - set the framebuffer to 8-bit depth (for example fbset -a 1024x768-60 -depth 8) - load a font with character width that is not a multiple of 8 pixels note: the console-tools package cannot load a font that has width different from 8 pixels. You need to install the packages "kbd" and "console-terminus" and use the program "setfont" to set font width (for example: setfont Uni2-Terminus20x10) - move some text left and right on the bash command line and you get a screen corruption To expose more bugs, put this line to the end of uvesafb_init_info: info->flags |= FBINFO_HWACCEL_COPYAREA | FBINFO_READS_FAST; - Now framebuffer console will use cfb_copyarea for console scrolling. You get a screen corruption when console is scrolled. This patch is a rewrite of cfb_copyarea. It fixes the bugs, with this patch, console scrolling in 8-bit depth with a font width that is not a multiple of 8 pixels works fine. The cfb_copyarea code was very buggy and it looks like it was written and never tried with non-8-pixel font.

commit af61e27c upstream. On suspend, _scsih_suspend calls mpt2sas_base_free_resources, which in turn calls pci_disable_device if the device is enabled prior to suspending. However, _scsih_suspend also calls pci_disable_device itself. Thus, in the event that the device is enabled prior to suspending, pci_disable_device will be called twice. This patch removes the duplicate call to pci_disable_device in _scsi_suspend as it is both unnecessary and results in a kernel oops.

commit c14af233 upstream. The original MIPS hibernate code flushes cache and TLB entries in swsusp_arch_resume(). But they are removed in Commit 44eeab67 (MIPS: Hibernation: Remove SMP TLB and cacheflushing code.). A cross- CPU flush is surely unnecessary because all but the local CPU have already been disabled. But a local flush (at least the TLB flush) is needed. When we do hibernation on Loongson-3 with an E1000E NIC, it is very easy to produce a kernel panic (kernel page fault, or unaligned access). The root cause is E1000E driver use vzalloc_node() to allocate pages, the stale TLB entries of the booting kernel will be misused by the resumed target kernel.

commit f7cf4f5b upstream. Do not put bh when buffer_uptodate failed in ocfs2_write_block and ocfs2_write_super_or_backup, because it will put bh in b_end_io. Otherwise it will hit a warning "VFS: brelse: Trying to free free buffer".

commit ded2cf71 upstream. There is a race window in dlm_do_recovery() between dlm_remaster_locks() and dlm_reset_recovery() when the recovery master nearly finish the recovery process for a dead node. After the master sends FINALIZE_RECO message in dlm_remaster_locks(), another node may become the recovery master for another dead node, and then send the BEGIN_RECO message to all the nodes included the old master, in the handler of this message dlm_begin_reco_handler() of old master, dlm->reco.dead_node and dlm->reco.new_master will be set to the second dead node and the new master, then in dlm_reset_recovery(), these two variables will be reset to default value. This will cause new recovery master can not finish the recovery process and hung, at last the whole cluster will hung for recovery. old recovery master: new recovery master: dlm_remaster_locks() become recovery master for another dead node. dlm_send_begin_reco_message() dlm_begin_reco_handler() { if (dlm->reco.state & DLM_RECO_STATE_FINALIZE) { return -EAGAIN; } dlm_set_reco_master(dlm, br->node_idx); dlm_set_reco_dead_node(dlm, br->dead_node); } dlm_reset_recovery() { dlm_set_reco_dead_node(dlm, O2NM_INVALID_NODE_NUM); dlm_set_reco_master(dlm, O2NM_INVALID_NODE_NUM); } will hang in dlm_remaster_locks() for request dlm locks info Before send FINALIZE_RECO message, recovery master should set DLM_RECO_STATE_FINALIZE for itself and clear it after the recovery done, this can break the race windows as the BEGIN_RECO messages will not be handled before DLM_RECO_STATE_FINALIZE flag is cleared. A similar race may happen between new recovery master and normal node which is in dlm_finalize_reco_handler(), also fix it.

commit 34aa8dac upstream. This issue was introduced by commit 800deef3 ("ocfs2: use list_for_each_entry where benefical") in 2007 where it replaced list_for_each with list_for_each_entry. The variable "lock" will point to invalid data if "tmpq" list is empty and a panic will be triggered due to this. Sunil advised reverting it back, but the old version was also not right. At the end of the outer for loop, that list_for_each_entry will also set "lock" to an invalid data, then in the next loop, if the "tmpq" list is empty, "lock" will be an stale invalid data and cause the panic. So reverting the list_for_each back and reset "lock" to NULL to fix this issue. Another concern is that this seemes can not happen because the "tmpq" list should not be empty. Let me describe how. old lock resource owner(node 1): migratation target(node 2): image there's lockres with a EX lock from node 2 in granted list, a NR lock from node x with convert_type EX in converting list. dlm_empty_lockres() { dlm_pick_migration_target() { pick node 2 as target as its lock is the first one in granted list. } dlm_migrate_lockres() { dlm_mark_lockres_migrating() { res->state |= DLM_LOCK_RES_BLOCK_DIRTY; wait_event(dlm->ast_wq, !dlm_lockres_is_dirty(dlm, res)); //after the above code, we can not dirty lockres any more, // so dlm_thread shuffle list will not run downconvert lock from EX to NR upconvert lock from NR to EX <<< migration may schedule out here, then <<< node 2 send down convert request to convert type from EX to <<< NR, then send up convert request to convert type from NR to <<< EX, at this time, lockres granted list is empty, and two locks <<< in the converting list, node x up convert lock followed by <<< node 2 up convert lock. // will set lockres RES_MIGRATING flag, the following // lock/unlock can not run dlm_lockres_release_ast(dlm, res); } dlm_send_one_lockres() dlm_process_recovery_data() for (i=0; i<mres->num_locks; i++) if (ml->node == dlm->node_num) for (j = DLM_GRANTED_LIST; j <= DLM_BLOCKED_LIST; j++) { list_for_each_entry(lock, tmpq, list) if (lock) break; <<< lock is invalid as grant list is empty. } if (lock->ml.node != ml->node) BUG() >>> crash here } I see the above locks status from a vmcore of our internal bug.

commit 80df2847 upstream. As sysctl_hung_task_timeout_sec is unsigned long, when this value is larger then LONG_MAX/HZ, the function schedule_timeout_interruptible in watchdog will return immediately without sleep and with print : schedule_timeout: wrong timeout value ffffffffffffff83 and then the funtion watchdog will call schedule_timeout_interruptible again and again. The screen will be filled with "schedule_timeout: wrong timeout value ffffffffffffff83" This patch does some check and correction in sysctl, to let the function schedule_timeout_interruptible allways get the valid parameter.

commit 55f67141 upstream. When I decrease the value of nr_hugepage in procfs a lot, softlockup happens. It is because there is no chance of context switch during this process. On the other hand, when I allocate a large number of hugepages, there is some chance of context switch. Hence softlockup doesn't happen during this process. So it's necessary to add the context switch in the freeing process as same as allocating process to avoid softlockup. When I freed 12 TB hugapages with kernel-2.6.32-358.el6, the freeing process occupied a CPU over 150 seconds and following softlockup message appeared twice or more. $ echo 6000000 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages $ cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages 6000000 $ grep ^Huge /proc/meminfo HugePages_Total: 6000000 HugePages_Free: 6000000 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 HugePages_Surp: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB $ echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages BUG: soft lockup - CPU#16 stuck for 67s!

However I confirmed that the amount of decreasing hugepages was directly proportional to the amount of required time. I measured required times on a smaller machine. It showed 130-145 hugepages decreased in a millisecond. Amount of decreasing Required time Decreasing rate hugepages (msec) (pages/msec) ------------------------------------------------------------ 10,000 pages == 20GB 70 - 74 135-142 30,000 pages == 60GB 208 - 229 131-144 It means decrement of 6TB hugepages will trigger softlockup with the default threshold 20sec, in this decreasing rate.

commit 6aec044c upstream. When a driver doesn't have pre_reset, post_reset, or reset_resume methods, the USB core unbinds that driver when its device undergoes a reset or a reset-resume, and then rebinds it afterward. The existing straightforward implementation can lead to problems, because each interface gets unbound and rebound before the next interface is handled. If a driver claims additional interfaces, the claim may fail because the old binding instance may still own the additional interface when the new instance tries to claim it. This patch fixes the problem by first unbinding all the interfaces that are marked (i.e., their needs_binding flag is set) and then rebinding all of them. The patch also makes the helper functions in driver.c a little more uniform and adjusts some out-of-date comments.

commit f76a1cbe upstream. Commit 3e6c6f63 ("Delay creation of khcvd thread") moved the call of hvc_init from being a device_initcall into hvc_alloc, and used a non-null hvc_driver as indication of whether hvc_init had already been called. The problem with this is that hvc_driver is only assigned a value at the bottom of hvc_init, and so there is a window where multiple hvc_alloc calls can be in progress at the same time and hence try and call hvc_init multiple times. Previously the use of device_init guaranteed that hvc_init was only called once. This manifests itself as sporadic instances of two hvc_init calls racing each other, and with the loser of the race getting -EBUSY from tty_register_driver() and hence that virtual console fails: Couldn't register hvc console driver virtio-ports vport0p1: error -16 allocating hvc for port Here we add an atomic_t to guarantee we'll never run hvc_init twice.

commit 06f9b6e5 upstream. Around DWC USB3 2.30a release another bit has been added to the Device-Specific Event (DEVT) Event Information (EvtInfo) bitfield. Because of that, what used to be 8 bits long, has become 9 bits long. Per dwc3 2.30a+ spec in the Device-Specific Event (DEVT), the field of Event Information Bits(EvtInfo) uses [24:16] bits, and it has 9 bits not 8 bits. And the following reserved field uses [31:25] bits not [31:24] bits, and it has 7 bits. So in dwc3_event_devt, the bit mask should be: event_info [24:16] 9 bits reserved31_25 [31:25] 7 bits This patch makes sure that newer core releases will work fine with Linux and that we will decode the event information properly on new core releases.
