commit fedb8da9 upstream. For years I thought all parisc machines executed loads and stores in order. However, Jeff Law recently indicated on gcc-patches that this is not correct. There are various degrees of out-of-order execution all the way back to the PA7xxx processor series (hit-under-miss). The PA8xxx series has full out-of-order execution for both integer operations, and loads and stores. This is described in the following article: http://web.archive.org/web/20040214092531/http://www.cpus.hp.com/technical_references/advperf.shtml For this reason, we need to define mb() and to insert a memory barrier before the store unlocking spinlocks. This ensures that all memory accesses are complete prior to unlocking. The ldcw instruction performs the same function on entry. Signed-off-by:

commit e01e8063 upstream. One of the classes of kernel stack content leaks[1] is exposing the contents of prior heap or stack contents when a new process stack is allocated. Normally, those stacks are not zeroed, and the old contents remain in place. In the face of stack content exposure flaws, those contents can leak to userspace. Fixing this will make the kernel no longer vulnerable to these flaws, as the stack will be wiped each time a stack is assigned to a new process. There's not a meaningful change in runtime performance; it almost looks like it provides a benefit. Performing back-to-back kernel builds before: Run times: 157.86 157.09 158.90 160.94 160.80 Mean: 159.12 Std Dev: 1.54 and after: Run times: 159.31 157.34 156.71 158.15 160.81 Mean: 158.46 Std Dev: 1.46 Instead of making this a build or runtime config, Andy Lutomirski recommended this just be enabled by default. [1] A noisy search for many kinds of stack content leaks can be seen here: https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=linux+kernel+stack+leak I did some more with perf and cycle counts on running 100,000 execs of /bin/true. before: Cycles: 218858861551 218853036130 214727610969 227656844122 224980542841 Mean: 221015379122.60 Std Dev: 4662486552.47 after: Cycles: 213868945060 213119275204 211820169456 224426673259 225489986348 Mean: 217745009865.40 Std Dev: 5935559279.99 It continues to look like it's faster, though the deviation is rather wide, but I'm not sure what I could do that would be less noisy.

commit 3ab2011e upstream. There is a race condition in tpm_common_write function allowing two threads on the same /dev/tpm<N>, or two different applications on the same /dev/tpmrm<N> to overwrite each other commands/responses. Fixed this by taking the priv->buffer_mutex early in the function. Also converted the priv->data_pending from atomic to a regular size_t type. There is no need for it to be atomic since it is only touched under the protection of the priv->buffer_mutex. Fixes: 1da177e4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by:

commit 50122847 upstream. Commit 8844618d: "ext4: only look at the bg_flags field if it is valid" will complain if block group zero does not have the EXT4_BG_INODE_ZEROED flag set. Unfortunately, this is not correct, since a freshly created file system has this flag cleared. It gets almost immediately after the file system is mounted read-write --- but the following somewhat unlikely sequence will end up triggering a false positive report of a corrupted file system: mkfs.ext4 /dev/vdc mount -o ro /dev/vdc /vdc mount -o remount,rw /dev/vdc Instead, when initializing the inode table for block group zero, test to make sure that itable_unused count is not too large, since that is the case that will result in some or all of the reserved inodes getting cleared. This fixes the failures reported by Eric Whiteney when running generic/230 and generic/231 in the the nojournal test case.

commit 73c8d894 upstream. Maintain the tracing on/off setting of the ring_buffer when switching to the trace buffer snapshot. Taking a snapshot is done by swapping the backup ring buffer (max_tr_buffer). But since the tracing on/off setting is defined by the ring buffer, when swapping it, the tracing on/off setting can also be changed. This causes a strange result like below: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat tracing_on 1 /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo 0 > tracing_on /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat tracing_on 0 /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo 1 > snapshot /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat tracing_on 1 /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo 1 > snapshot /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat tracing_on 0 We don't touch tracing_on, but snapshot changes tracing_on setting each time. This is an anomaly, because user doesn't know that each "ring_buffer" stores its own tracing-enable state and the snapshot is done by swapping ring buffers.

commit a0040c01 upstream. Hyper-V instances support PCI pass-through which is implemented through PV pci-hyperv driver. When a device is passed through, a new root PCI bus is created in the guest. The bus sits on top of VMBus and has no associated information in ACPI. acpi_pci_add_bus() in this case proceeds all the way to acpi_evaluate_dsm(), which reports ACPI: \: failed to evaluate _DSM (0x1001) While acpi_pci_slot_enumerate() and acpiphp_enumerate_slots() are protected against ACPI_HANDLE() being NULL and do nothing, acpi_evaluate_dsm() is not and gives us the error. It seems the correct fix is to not do anything in acpi_pci_add_bus() in such cases. Signed-off-by:

commit 44de022c upstream. Ext4_check_descriptors() was getting called before s_gdb_count was initialized. So for file systems w/o the meta_bg feature, allocation bitmaps could overlap the block group descriptors and ext4 wouldn't notice. For file systems with the meta_bg feature enabled, there was a fencepost error which would cause the ext4_check_descriptors() to incorrectly believe that the block allocation bitmap overlaps with the block group descriptor blocks, and it would reject the mount. Fix both of these problems. Signed-off-by:

commit 91874ecf upstream. It's legal to have 64 groups for netlink_sock. As user-supplied nladdr->nl_groups is __u32, it's possible to subscribe only to first 32 groups.

commit d1f0301b upstream. The support of force threading interrupts which are set up with both a primary and a threaded handler wreckaged the setup of regular requested threaded interrupts (primary handler == NULL). The reason is that it does not check whether the primary handler is set to the default handler which wakes the handler thread. Instead it replaces the thread handler with the primary handler as it would do with force threaded interrupts which have been requested via request_irq(). So both the primary and the thread handler become the same which then triggers the warnon that the thread handler tries to wakeup a not configured secondary thread. Fortunately this only happens when the driver omits the IRQF_ONESHOT flag when requesting the threaded interrupt, which is normaly caught by the sanity checks when force irq threading is disabled. Fix it by skipping the force threading setup when a regular threaded interrupt is requested. As a consequence the interrupt request which lacks the IRQ_ONESHOT flag is rejected correctly instead of silently wreckaging it.

commit 46d8c4b2 upstream. This was detected by the self-test thanks to Ard's chunking patch. I finally got around to testing this out on my ancient Via box. It turns out that the workaround got the assembly wrong and we end up doing count + initial cycles of the loop instead of just count. This obviously causes corruption, either by overwriting the source that is yet to be processed, or writing over the end of the buffer. On CPUs that don't require the workaround only ECB is affected. On Nano CPUs both ECB and CBC are affected. This patch fixes it by doing the subtraction prior to the assembly. Fixes: a76c1c23 ("crypto: padlock-aes - work around Nano CPU...")

commit 63aff655 upstream. VPID for the nested vcpu is allocated at vmx_create_vcpu whenever nested vmx is turned on with the module parameter. However, it's only freed if the L1 guest has executed VMXON which is not a given. As a result, on a system with nested==on every creation+deletion of an L1 vcpu without running an L2 guest results in leaking one vpid. Since the total number of vpids is limited to 64k, they can eventually get exhausted, preventing L2 from starting. Delay allocation of the L2 vpid until VMXON emulation, thus matching its freeing.

We plan to add SACK compression in the following patch, we must therefore not call tcp_enter_quickack_mode() Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 9939a46d ] As for today STMMAC_ALIGN macro (which is used to align DMA stuff) relies on L1 line length (L1_CACHE_BYTES). This isn't correct in case of system with several cache levels which might have L1 cache line length smaller than L2 line. This can lead to sharing one cache line between DMA buffer and other data, so we can lose this data while invalidate DMA buffer before DMA transaction. Fix that by using SMP_CACHE_BYTES instead of L1_CACHE_BYTES for aligning. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 822fb18a ] When loading module manually, after call xenbus_switch_state to initializes the state of the netfront device, the driver state did not change so fast that may lead no dev created in latest kernel. This patch adds wait to make sure xenbus knows the driver is not in closed/unknown state. Current state: [vm]# ethtool eth0 Settings for eth0: Link detected: yes [vm]# modprobe -r xen_netfront [vm]# modprobe xen_netfront [vm]# ethtool eth0 Settings for eth0: Cannot get device settings: No such device Cannot get wake-on-lan settings: No such device Cannot get message level: No such device Cannot get link status: No such device No data available With the patch installed. [vm]# ethtool eth0 Settings for eth0: Link detected: yes [vm]# modprobe -r xen_netfront [vm]# modprobe xen_netfront [vm]# ethtool eth0 Settings for eth0: Link detected: yes Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 136f55f6 ] As long the bh tasklet isn't scheduled once, no packet from the rx path will be handled. Since the tx path also schedule the same tasklet this situation only persits until the first packet transmission. So fix this issue by scheduling the tasklet after link reset.
