EFI changes for v3.9-rc3, * A new config option and efivars module parameter have been added to allow the efivars pstore backend to be disabled as we're still seeing issues on machines despite adding heuristics to workaround known bugs. Distributions now have a way to disable EFI variable pstore code completely - from Seth Forshee. * A couple of efivars patches to workaround quirky implementations of GetNextVariableName() which resulted in machines hanging and sysfs files being created with garbage names.

Some firmware exhibits a bug where the same VariableName and VendorGuid values are returned on multiple invocations of GetNextVariableName().

It's not wise to assume VariableNameSize represents the length of VariableName, as not all firmware updates VariableNameSize in the same way (some don't update it at all if EFI_SUCCESS is returned). There are even implementations out there that update VariableNameSize with values that are both larger than the string returned in VariableName and smaller than the buffer passed to GetNextVariableName(), which resulted in the following bug report from Michael Schroeder, > On HP z220 system (firmware version 1.54), some EFI variables are > incorrectly named : > > ls -d /sys/firmware/efi/vars/*8be4d* | grep -v -- -8be returns > /sys/firmware/efi/vars/dbxDefault-pport8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c > /sys/firmware/efi/vars/KEKDefault-pport8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c > /sys/firmware/efi/vars/SecureBoot-pport8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c > /sys/firmware/efi/vars/SetupMode-Information8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c The issue here is that because we blindly use VariableNameSize without verifying its value, we can potentially read garbage values from the buffer containing VariableName if VariableNameSize is larger than the length of VariableName. Since VariableName is a string, we can calculate its size by searching for the terminating NULL character.

We know that with some firmware implementations writing too much data to UEFI variables can lead to bricking machines. Recent changes attempt to address this issue, but for some it may still be prudent to avoid writing large amounts of data until the solution has been proven on a wide variety of hardware. Crash dumps or other data from pstore can potentially be a large data source. Add a pstore_module parameter to efivars to allow disabling its use as a backend for pstore. Also add a config option, CONFIG_EFI_VARS_PSTORE_DEFAULT_DISABLE, to allow setting the default value of this paramter to true (i.e. disabled by default).

Commit 1d9d8639 ("perf,x86: fix kernel crash with PEBS/BTS after suspend/resume") fixed a crash when doing PEBS performance profiling after resuming, but in using init_debug_store_on_cpu() to restore the DS_AREA mtrr it also resulted in a new WARN_ON() triggering. init_debug_store_on_cpu() uses "wrmsr_on_cpu()", which in turn uses CPU cross-calls to do the MSR update. Which is not really valid at the early resume stage, and the warning is quite reasonable. Now, it all happens to _work_, for the simple reason that smp_call_function_single() ends up just doing the call directly on the CPU when the CPU number matches, but we really should just do the wrmsr() directly instead. This duplicates the wrmsr() logic, but hopefully we can just remove the wrmsr_on_cpu() version eventually.

Users report that an extent map's list is still linked when it's actually going to be freed from cache. The story is that a) when we're going to drop an extent map and may split this large one into smaller ems, and if this large one is flagged as EXTENT_FLAG_LOGGING which means that it's on the list to be logged, then the smaller ems split from it will also be flagged as EXTENT_FLAG_LOGGING, and this is _not_ expected. b) we'll keep ems from unlinking the list and freeing when they are flagged with EXTENT_FLAG_LOGGING, because the log code holds one reference. The end result is the warning, but the truth is that we set the flag EXTENT_FLAG_LOGGING only during fsync. So clear flag EXTENT_FLAG_LOGGING for extent maps split from a large one.

This patch fixes a kernel crash when using precise sampling (PEBS) after a suspend/resume. Turns out the CPU notifier code is not invoked on CPU0 (BP). Therefore, the DS_AREA (used by PEBS) is not restored properly by the kernel and keeps it power-on/resume value of 0 causing any PEBS measurement to crash when running on CPU0. The workaround is to add a hook in the actual resume code to restore the DS Area MSR value. It is invoked for all CPUS. So for all but CPU0, the DS_AREA will be restored twice but this is harmless.

The vm_flags introduced in 6d7825b1 ("mm/fremap.c: fix oops on error path") is supposed to avoid a compiler warning about unitialized vm_flags without changing the generated code. However I am concerned that this is going to be very brittle, and fail with some compiler versions. The failure could be either of: - compiler could actually load vma->vm_flags before checking for the !vma condition, thus reintroducing the oops - compiler could optimize out the !vma check, since the pointer just got dereferenced shortly before (so the compiler knows it can't be NULL!) I propose reversing this part of the change and initializing vm_flags to 0 just to avoid the bogus uninitialized use warning.

-
Paul E. McKenney authored
The current version of hlist_entry_safe() fetches the pointer twice, once to test for NULL and the other to compute the offset back to the enclosing structure. This is OK for normal lock-based use because in that case, the pointer cannot change. However, when the pointer is protected by RCU (as in "rcu_dereference(p)"), then the pointer can change at any time. This use case can result in the following sequence of events: 1. CPU 0 invokes hlist_entry_safe(), fetches the RCU-protected pointer as sees that it is non-NULL. 2. CPU 1 invokes hlist_del_rcu(), deleting the entry that CPU 0 just fetched a pointer to. Because this is the last entry in the list, the pointer fetched by CPU 0 is now NULL. 3. CPU 0 refetches the pointer, obtains NULL, and then gets a NULL-pointer crash. This commit therefore applies gcc's "({ })" statement expression to create a temporary variable so that the specified pointer is fetched only once, avoiding the above sequence of events. Please note that it is the caller's responsibility to use rcu_dereference() as needed. This allows RCU-protected uses to work correctly without imposing any additional overhead on the non-RCU case.

If one of qgroup fails to reserve firstly, we should return immediately, it is unnecessary to continue check. Signed-off-by: Wang Shilong <wangsl-fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik <jbacik@fusionio.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@fusionio.com>

The callers of lookup_inline_extent_info all handle getting an error back properly, so return an error if we have corruption instead of being a jerk and panicing. Still WARN_ON() since this is kind of crucial and I've been seeing it a bit too much recently for my taste, I think we're doing something wrong somewhere.

Doing this would reliably fail with -EBUSY for me: # mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/scratch; umount /mnt/scratch; mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb2 ... unable to open /dev/sdb2: Device or resource busy because mkfs.btrfs tries to open the device O_EXCL, and somebody still has it. Using systemtap to track bdev gets & puts shows a kworker thread doing a blkdev put after mkfs attempts a get; this is left over from the unmount path: btrfs_close_devices __btrfs_close_devices call_rcu(&device->rcu, free_device); free_device INIT_WORK(&device->rcu_work, __free_device); schedule_work(&device->rcu_work); so unmount might complete before __free_device fires & does its blkdev_put. Adding an rcu_barrier() to btrfs_close_devices() causes unmount to wait until all blkdev_put()s are done, and the device is truly free once unmount completes.

On LTC2978, only READ_TEMPERATURE is supported. It reports the internal junction temperature. This register is unpaged. On LTC3880, READ_TEMPERATURE and READ_TEMPERATURE2 are supported. READ_TEMPERATURE is paged and reports external temperatures. READ_TEMPERATURE2 is unpaged and reports the internal junction temperature.

If krealloc() returns NULL, it *doesn't* free the original. So any code of the form 'foo = krealloc(foo, …);' is almost certainly a bug. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net>
