Occasionally, testing memcg's move_charge_at_immigrate on rc7 shows a flurry of hundreds of warnings at kernel/res_counter.c:96, where res_counter_uncharge_locked() does WARN_ON(counter->usage < val). The first trace of each flurry implicates __mem_cgroup_cancel_charge() of mc.precharge, and an audit of mc.precharge handling points to mem_cgroup_move_charge_pte_range()'s THP handling in commit 12724850 ("memcg: avoid THP split in task migration"). Checking !mc.precharge is good everywhere else, when a single page is to be charged; but here the "mc.precharge -= HPAGE_PMD_NR" likely to follow, is liable to result in underflow (a lot can change since the precharge was estimated). Simply check against HPAGE_PMD_NR: there's probably a better alternative, trying precharge for more, splitting if unsuccessful; but this one-liner is safer for now - no kernel/res_counter.c:96 warnings seen in 26 hours.

Pull a dm fix from Alasdair G Kergon: "A fix to the thin provisioning userspace interface." * tag 'dm-3.4-fixes-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/agk/linux-dm: dm thin: fix table output when pool target disables discard passdown internally
-
Mike Snitzer authored
When the thin pool target clears the discard_passdown parameter internally, it incorrectly changes the table line reported to userspace. This breaks dumb string comparisons on these table lines in generic userspace device-mapper library code and leads to tables being reloaded repeatedly when nothing is actually meant to be changing. This patch corrects this by no longer changing the table line when discard passdown was disabled. We can still tell when discard passdown is overridden by looking for the message "Discard unsupported by data device (sdX): Disabling discard passdown." This automatic detection is also moved from the 'load' to the 'resume' so that it is re-evaluated should the properties of underlying devices change. Signed-off-by:

Instead of doing the i_mode calculations at proc_fd_instantiate() time, move them into tid_fd_revalidate(), which is where the other inode state (notably uid/gid information) is updated too. Otherwise we'll end up with stale i_mode information if an fd is re-used while the dentry still hangs around. Not that anything really *cares* (symlink permissions don't really matter), but Tetsuo Handa noticed that the owner read/write bits don't always match the state of the readability of the file descriptor, and we _used_ to get this right a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Besides, aside from fixing an ugly detail (that has apparently been this way since commit 61a28784: "proc: Remove the hard coded inode numbers" in 2006), this removes more lines of code than it adds. And it just makes sense to update i_mode in the same place we update i_uid/gid. Al Viro correctly points out that we could just do the inode fill in the inode iops ->getattr() function instead. However, that does require somewhat slightly more invasive changes, and adds yet *another* lookup of the file descriptor. We need to do the revalidate() for other reasons anyway, and have the file descriptor handy, so we might as well fill in the information at this point. Reported-by:

Some discussion with the glibc mailing lists revealed that this was necessary for 64-bit platforms with MIPS-like sign-extension rules for 32-bit values. The original symptom was that passing (uid_t)-1 to setreuid() was failing in programs linked -pthread because of the "setxid" mechanism for passing setxid-type function arguments to the syscall code. SYSCALL_WRAPPERS handles ensuring that all syscall arguments end up with proper sign-extension and is thus the appropriate fix for this problem. On other platforms (s390, powerpc, sparc64, and mips) this was fixed in 2.6.28.6. The general issue is tracked as CVE-2009-0029. Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by:

Commit 1cc0c998 ("ACPI: Fix D3hot v D3cold confusion") introduced a bug in __acpi_bus_set_power() and changed the behavior of acpi_pci_set_power_state() in such a way that it generally doesn't work as expected if PCI_D3hot is passed to it as the second argument. First off, if ACPI_STATE_D3 (equal to ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD) is passed to __acpi_bus_set_power() and the explicit_set flag is set for the D3cold state, the function will try to execute AML method called "_PS4", which doesn't exist. Fix this by adding a check to ensure that the name of the AML method to execute for transitions to ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD is correct in __acpi_bus_set_power(). Also make sure that the explicit_set flag for ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD will be set if _PS3 is present and modify acpi_power_transition() to avoid accessing power resources for ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD, because they don't exist. Second, if PCI_D3hot is passed to acpi_pci_set_power_state() as the target state, the function will request a transition to ACPI_STATE_D3_HOT instead of ACPI_STATE_D3. However, ACPI_STATE_D3_HOT is now only marked as supported if the _PR3 AML method is defined for the given device, which is rare. This causes problems to happen on systems where devices were successfully put into ACPI D3 by pci_set_power_state(PCI_D3hot) which doesn't work now. In particular, some unused graphics adapters are not turned off as a result. To fix this issue restore the old behavior of acpi_pci_set_power_state(), which is to request a transition to ACPI_STATE_D3 (equal to ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD) if either PCI_D3hot or PCI_D3cold is passed to it as the argument. This approach is not ideal, because generally power should not be removed from devices if PCI_D3hot is the target power state, but since this behavior is relied on, we have no choice but to restore it at the moment and spend more time on designing a better solution in the future.

Since recent changes on TCP splicing (starting with commits 2f533844 "tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packets" and 35f9c09f "tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once"), I started seeing massive stalls when forwarding traffic between two sockets using splice() when pipe buffers were larger than socket buffers. Latest changes (net: netdev_alloc_skb() use build_skb()) made the problem even more apparent. The reason seems to be that if do_tcp_sendpages() fails on out of memory condition without being able to send at least one byte, tcp_push() is not called and the buffers cannot be flushed. After applying the attached patch, I cannot reproduce the stalls at all and the data rate it perfectly stable and steady under any condition which previously caused the problem to be permanent. The issue seems to have been there since before the kernel migrated to git, which makes me think that the stalls I occasionally experienced with tux during stress-tests years ago were probably related to the same issue. This issue was first encountered on 3.0.31 and 3.2.17, so please backport to -stable. Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes a bug in the handling of FILEIO w/ underlying block_device resize operations where the original fd_dev->fd_dev_size was incorrectly being used in fd_get_blocks() for READ_CAPACITY response payloads. This patch avoids using fd_dev->fd_dev_size for FILEIO devices with an underlying block_device, and instead changes fd_get_blocks() to get the sector count directly from i_size_read() as recommended by hch.

Commit ff9a184c ("ARM: 7400/1: vfp: clear fpscr length and stride bits on entry to sig handler") flushes the VFP state prior to entering a signal handler so that a VFP operation inside the handler will trap and force a restore of ABI-compliant registers. Reflushing and disabling VFP on the sigreturn path is predicated on the saved thread state indicating that VFP was used by the handler -- however for SMP platforms this is only set on context-switch, making the check unreliable and causing VFP register corruption in userspace since the register values are not necessarily those restored from the sigframe. This patch unconditionally flushes the VFP state after a signal handler. Since we already perform the flush before the handler and the flushing itself happens lazily, the redundant flush when VFP is not used by the handler is essentially a nop. Reported-by:

A zero value for prot_sect in the memory types table implies that section mappings should never be created for the memory type in question. This is checked for in alloc_init_section(). With LPAE, we set a bit to mask access flag faults for kernel mappings. This breaks the aforementioned (!prot_sect) check in alloc_init_section(). This patch fixes this bug by first checking for a non-zero prot_sect before setting the PMD_SECT_AF flag. Signed-off-by:

__napi_schedule might raise softirq but nothing causes do_softirq to trigger, so it does not in fact run. As a result, the error message "NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08" sometimes occurs during boot of a KVM guest when the network service is started and we are oom: ... Bringing up loopback interface: [ OK ] Bringing up interface eth0: Determining IP information for eth0...NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08 done. [ OK ] ... Further, receive queue processing might get delayed indefinitely until some interrupt triggers: virtio_net expected napi to be run immediately. One way to cause do_softirq to be executed is by invoking local_bh_enable(). As __napi_schedule is normally called from bh or irq context, this seems to make sense: disable bh before __napi_schedule and enable afterwards. In fact it's a very complicated way of calling do_softirq(), and works since this function is only used when we are not in interrupt context. It's not hot at all, in any ideal scenario. Reported-by:

Use del_timer_sync to remove timer before mddev_suspend finishes. We don't want a timer going off after an mddev_suspend is called. This is especially true with device-mapper, since it can call the destructor function immediately following a suspend. This results in the removal (kfree) of the structures upon which the timer depends - resulting in a very ugly panic. Therefore, we add a del_timer_sync to mddev_suspend to prevent this.

raid10 stores dev_sectors in 'conf' separately from the one in 'mddev' because it can have a very significant effect on block addressing and so need to be updated carefully. However raid10_resize isn't updating it at all! To update it correctly, we need to make sure it is a proper multiple of the chunksize taking various details of the layout in to account. This calculation is currently done in setup_conf. So split it out from there and call it from raid10_resize as well. Then set conf->dev_sectors properly. Signed-off-by:

Pull networking tree from David Miller: 1) ptp_pch driver build broke during this merge window due to missing slab.h header, fix from Geery Uytterhoeven. 2) If ipset passes in a bogus hash table size we crash because the size is not validated properly. Compounding this, gcc-4.7 can miscompile ipset such that even when the user specifies legitimate parameters the tool passes in an out-of-range size to the kernel. Fix from Jozsef Kadlecsik. 3) Users have reported that the netdev watchdog can trigger with pch_gbe devices, and it turns out this is happening because of races in the TX path of the driver leading to the transmitter hanging. Fix from Eric Dumazet, reported and tested by Andy Cress. 4) Novatel USB551L devices match the generic class entries for the cdc ethernet USB driver, but they don't work because they have generic descriptors and thus need FLAG_WWAN to function properly. Add the necessary ID table entry to fix this, from Dan Williams. 5) A recursive locking fix in the USBNET driver added a new problem, in that packet list traversal is now racy and we can thus access unlinked SKBs and crash. Avoid this situation by adding some extra state tracking, from Ming Lei. 6) The rtlwifi conversion to asynchronous firmware loading is racy, fix by reordering the probe procedure. From Larry Finger. Fixes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43187 7) Fix regressions with bluetooth keyboards by notifying userland properly when the security level changes, from Gustavo Padovan. 8) Bluetooth needs to make sure device connected events are emitted before other kinds of events, otherwise userspace will think there is no baseband link yet and therefore abort the sockets associated with that connection. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: netfilter: ipset: fix hash size checking in kernel ptp_pch: Add missing #include <linux/slab.h> pch_gbe: fix transmit races cdc_ether: add Novatel USB551L device IDs for FLAG_WWAN usbnet: fix skb traversing races during unlink(v2) Bluetooth: mgmt: Fix device_connected sending order Bluetooth: notify userspace of security level change rtlwifi: fix for race condition when firmware is cached
