commit a349e23d upstream. In 32 bit guests, if a userspace process has %eax == -ERESTARTSYS (-512) or -ERESTARTNOINTR (-513) when it is interrupted by an event /and/ the process has a pending signal then %eip (and %eax) are corrupted when returning to the main process after handling the signal. The application may then crash with SIGSEGV or a SIGILL or it may have subtly incorrect behaviour (depending on what instruction it returned to). The occurs because handle_signal() is incorrectly thinking that there is a system call that needs to restarted so it adjusts %eip and %eax to re-execute the system call instruction (even though user space had not done a system call). If %eax == -514 (-ERESTARTNOHAND (-514) or -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK (-516) then handle_signal() only corrupted %eax (by setting it to -EINTR). This may cause the application to crash or have incorrect behaviour. handle_signal() assumes that regs->orig_ax >= 0 means a system call so any kernel entry point that is not for a system call must push a negative value for orig_ax. For example, for physical interrupts on bare metal the inverse of the vector is pushed and page_fault() sets regs->orig_ax to -1, overwriting the hardware provided error code. xen_hypervisor_callback() was incorrectly pushing 0 for orig_ax instead of -1. Classic Xen kernels pushed %eax which works as %eax cannot be both non-negative and -RESTARTSYS (etc.), but using -1 is consistent with other non-system call entry points and avoids some of the tests in handle_signal(). There were similar bugs in xen_failsafe_callback() of both 32 and 64-bit guests. If the fault was corrected and the normal return path was used then 0 was incorrectly pushed as the value for orig_ax.

commit c985cb37 upstream. Because of a change in the s390 arch backend of binutils (commit 23ecd77 "Pick the default arch depending on the target size" in binutils repo) 31 bit builds will fail since the linker would now try to create 64 bit binary output. Fix this by setting OUTPUT_ARCH to s390:31-bit instead of s390. Thanks to Andreas Krebbel for figuring out the issue. Fixes this build error: LD init/built-in.o s390x-4.7.2-ld: s390:31-bit architecture of input file `arch/s390/kernel/head.o' is incompatible with s390:64-bit output Cc: Andreas Krebbel <Andreas.Krebbel@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> [bwh: Backported to 3.2: adjust context] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit 08291847 upstream. radeon_i2c_fini() walks thru the list of I2C bus recs rdev->i2c_bus[] to destroy each of them. radeon_ext_tmds_enc_destroy() however also has code to destroy it's associated I2C bus rec which has been obtained by radeon_i2c_lookup() and is therefore also in the i2c_bus[] list. This causes a double free resulting in a kernel panic when unloading the radeon driver.

commit f0a996ee upstream. This fault was detected using the kgdb test suite on boot and it crashes recursively due to the fact that CONFIG_KPROBES on mips adds an extra die notifier in the page fault handler.

commit 065a13e2 upstream. When sending a pairing request or response we should not just blindly copy the value that the remote device sent. Instead we should at least make sure to mask out any unknown bits.

commit 5aa8b572 upstream. For IPv6, sizeof(struct ipv6hdr) = 40, thus the following expression will result negative: datalen = pkt_dev->cur_pkt_size - 14 - sizeof(struct ipv6hdr) - sizeof(struct udphdr) - pkt_dev->pkt_overhead; And, the check "if (datalen < sizeof(struct pktgen_hdr))" will be passed as "datalen" is promoted to unsigned, therefore will cause a crash later. This is a quick fix by checking if "datalen" is negative. The following patch will increase the default value of 'min_pkt_size' for IPv6. This bug should exist for a long time, so Cc -stable too.

commit 7386cdbf upstream. Git commit 09a1d34f "nohz: Make idle/iowait counter update conditional" introduced a bug in regard to cpu hotplug. The effect is that the number of idle ticks in the cpu summary line in /proc/stat is still counting ticks for offline cpus. Reproduction is easy, just start a workload that keeps all cpus busy, switch off one or more cpus and then watch the idle field in top. On a dual-core with one cpu 100% busy and one offline cpu you will get something like this: %Cpu(s): 48.7 us, 1.3 sy, 0.0 ni, 50.0 id, 0.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.0 si, %0.0 st The problem is that an offline cpu still has ts->idle_active == 1. To fix this we should make sure that the cpu is online when calling get_cpu_idle_time_us and get_cpu_iowait_time_us.

commit 26cff4e2 upstream. Adding two (or more) timers with large values for "expires" (they have to reside within tv5 in the same list) leads to endless looping between cascade() and internal_add_timer() in case CONFIG_BASE_SMALL is one and jiffies are crossing the value 1 << 18. The bug was introduced between 2.6.11 and 2.6.12 (and survived for quite some time). This patch ensures that when cascade() is called timers within tv5 are not added endlessly to their own list again, instead they are added to the next lower tv level tv4 (as expected).

commit bc977749 upstream. Currently it is possible to unmap one more block than user requested to due to the off-by-one error in unmap_region(). This is probably due to the fact that the end variable despite its name actually points to the last block to unmap + 1. However in the condition it is handled as the last block of the region to unmap. The bug was not previously spotted probably due to the fact that the region was not zeroed, which has changed with commit be1dd78d. With that commit we were able to corrupt the ext4 file system on 256M scsi_debug device with LBPRZ enabled using fstrim. Since the 'end' semantic is the same in several functions there this commit just fixes the condition to use the 'end' variable correctly in that context.

commit 846a1368 upstream. Michael Olbrich reported that his test program fails when built with -O2 -mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon, and a kernel which supports v6 and v7 CPUs: volatile int x = 2; volatile int64_t y = 2; int main() { volatile int a = 0; volatile int64_t b = 0; while (1) { a = (a + x) % (1 << 30); b = (b + y) % (1 << 30); assert(a == b); } } and two instances are run. When built for just v7 CPUs, this program works fine. It uses the "vadd.i64 d19, d18, d16" VFP instruction. It appears that we do not save the high-16 double VFP registers across context switches when the kernel is built for v6 CPUs. Fix that.

commit 67bfa9b6 upstream. By enlarging the GPE storm threshold back to 20, that laptop's EC works fine with interrupt mode instead of polling mode. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45151Reported-and-Tested-by: Francesco <trentini@dei.unipd.it> Signed-off-by: Feng Tang <feng.tang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit a520d52e upstream. The Linux EC driver includes a mechanism to detect GPE storms, and switch from interrupt-mode to polling mode. However, polling mode sometimes doesn't work, so the workaround is problematic. Also, different systems seem to need the threshold for detecting the GPE storm at different levels. ACPI_EC_STORM_THRESHOLD was initially 20 when it's created, and was changed to 8 in 2.6.28 commit 06cf7d3c "ACPI: EC: lower interrupt storm threshold" to fix kernel bug 11892 by forcing the laptop in that bug to work in polling mode. However in bug 45151, it works fine in interrupt mode if we lift the threshold back to 20. This patch makes the threshold a module parameter so that user has a flexible option to debug/workaround this issue. The default is unchanged. This is also a preparation patch to fix specific systems: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45151Signed-off-by: Feng Tang <feng.tang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit c99af375 upstream. Cloudlinux have a product called lve that includes a kernel module. This was previously GPLed but is now under a proprietary license, but the module continues to declare MODULE_LICENSE("GPL") and makes use of some EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL symbols. Forcibly taint it in order to avoid this.

commit 012a1211 upstream. As detailed in the thread titled "viafb PLL/clock tweaking causes XO-1.5 instability," enabling or disabling the IGA1/IGA2 clocks causes occasional stability problems during suspend/resume cycles on this platform. This is rather odd, as the documentation suggests that clocks have two states (on/off) and the default (stable) configuration is configured to enable the clock only when it is needed. However, explicitly enabling *or* disabling the clock triggers this system instability, suggesting that there is a 3rd state at play here. Leaving the clock enable/disable registers alone solves this problem. This fixes spurious reboots during suspend/resume behaviour introduced by commit b692a63a.

commit cf9182e9 upstream. Processes that open and close multiple files may end up setting this oo_last_closed_stid without freeing what was previously pointed to. This can result in a major leak, visible for example by watching the nfsd4_stateids line of /proc/slabinfo.
