As with 61876395, an open directory may have a NULL private_data pointer prior to readdir. CIFS_ENUMERATE_SNAPSHOTS must check for this before dereference.

The server may respond with success, and an output buffer less than sizeof(struct smb_snapshot_array) in length. Do not leak the output buffer in this case.

Mac requires the unicode flag to be set for cifs, even for the smb echo request (which doesn't have strings). Without this Mac rejects the periodic echo requests (when mounting with cifs) that we use to check if server is down Signed-off-by: Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com> CC: Stable <stable@vger.kernel.org>

This patch adds support to process write calls passed by io_submit() asynchronously. It based on the previously introduced async context that allows to process i/o responses in a separate thread and return the caller immediately for asynchronous calls. This improves writing performance of single threaded applications with increasing of i/o queue depth size.

Currently the code doesn't recognize asynchronous calls passed by io_submit() and processes all calls synchronously. This is not what kernel AIO expects. This patch introduces a new async context that keeps track of all issued i/o requests and moves a response collecting procedure to a separate thread. This allows to return to a caller immediately for async calls and call iocb->ki_complete() once all requests are completed. For sync calls the current thread simply waits until all requests are completed. Signed-off-by: Pavel Shilovsky <pshilov@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com>

When the IP address is gotten from the UNC, use only the address part of the UNC. Else all after the percent sign in an IPv6 link local address is interpreted as a scope id. This includes the slash and share name. A scope id is expected to be an integer and any trailing characters makes the conversion to integer fail. Example of mount command that fails: mount -i -t cifs //fe80::6a05:caff:fe3e:8ffc%2/test /mnt/t -o sec=none Signed-off-by: Daniel N Pettersson <danielnp@axis.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com>

January is month 1. There is no zero-th month. If someone passes a zero month then it means we read from one space before the start of the total_days_of_prev_months[] array.

Pul x86/process updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main change in this cycle was to add the ARCH_[GET|SET]_CPUID prctl() ABI extension to control the availability of the CPUID instruction, analogously to the existing PR_GET|SET_TSC ABI that controls RDTSC. Motivation: the 'rr' user-space record-and-replay execution debugger would like to trap and emulate the CPUID instruction - which instruction is normally unprivileged.

Pull AVR32 removal from Hans-Christian Noren Egtvedt: "This will remove support for AVR32 architecture from the kernel and clean away the most obvious architecture related parts. Removing dead code in drivers is the next step" Notes from previous discussion about this: "The AVR32 architecture is not keeping up with the development of the kernel, and since it shares so much of the drivers with Atmel ARM SoC, it is starting to hinder these drivers to develop swiftly. Also, all AVR32 AP7 SoC processors are end of lifed from Atmel (now Microchip). Finally, the GCC toolchain is stuck at version 4.2.x, and has not received any patches since the last release from Atmel; 4.2.4-atmel.1.1.3.avr32linux.1. When building kernel v4.10, this toolchain is no longer able to properly link the network stack. Haavard and I have came to the conclusion that we feel keeping AVR32 on life support offers more obstacles for Atmel ARMs, than it gives joy to AVR32 users. I also suspect there are very few AVR32 users left today, if anybody at all" That discussion was acked by Andy Shevchenko, Boris Brezillon, Nicolas Ferre, and Haavard Skinnemoen. * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/egtvedt/linux-avr32: mm: remove AVR32 arch special handling in mm/Kconfig lib: remove check for AVR32 arch in test_user_copy lib: remove AVR32 entry in Kconfig.debug compile with frame pointers scripts: remove AVR32 support from checkstack.pl docs: remove all references to AVR32 architecture avr32: remove support for AVR32 architecture

Starting from gcc-5.4+ gcc generates MLX instructions in more cases to refer local symbols: https://gcc.gnu.org/PR60465 That caused ia64 module loader to choke on such instructions: fuse: invalid slot number 1 for IMM64 The Linux kernel used to handle only case where relocation pointed to slot=2 instruction in the bundle. That limitation was fixed in linux by commit 9c184a07 ("[IA64] Fix 2.6 kernel for the new ia64 assembler") See http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1433 This change lifts the slot=2 restriction from the kernel module loader. Tested on 'fuse' and 'btrfs' kernel modules.

Pull uaccess unification updates from Al Viro: "This is the uaccess unification pile. It's _not_ the end of uaccess work, but the next batch of that will go into the next cycle. This one mostly takes copy_from_user() and friends out of arch/* and gets the zero-padding behaviour in sync for all architectures. Dealing with the nocache/writethrough mess is for the next cycle; fortunately, that's x86-only. Same for cleanups in iov_iter.c (I am sold on access_ok() in there, BTW; just not in this pile), same for reducing __copy_... callsites, strn*... stuff, etc. - there will be a pile about as large as this one in the next merge window.
