commit 7a71932d upstream. KPF_THP can be set on non-huge compound pages (like slab pages or pages allocated by drivers with __GFP_COMP) because PageTransCompound only checks PG_head and PG_tail. Obviously this is a bug and breaks user space applications which look for thp via /proc/kpageflags. This patch rules out setting KPF_THP wrongly by additionally checking PageLRU on the head pages.

commit b71fc079 upstream. Code tracking when transaction needs to be committed on fdatasync(2) forgets to handle a situation when only inode's i_size is changed. Thus in such situations fdatasync(2) doesn't force transaction with new i_size to disk and that can result in wrong i_size after a crash. Fix the issue by updating inode's i_datasync_tid whenever its size is updated. Reported-by:

commit 03bd8b9b upstream. - Remove usless checks, because it is too late to check that inode != NULL at the moment it was referenced several times. - Double lock routines looks very ugly and locking ordering relays on order of i_ino, but other kernel code rely on order of pointers. Let's make them simple and clean. - check that inodes belongs to the same SB as soon as possible. Signed-off-by:

commit 50df9fd5 upstream. The crash was caused by a variable being erronously declared static in token2str(). In addition to /proc/mounts, the problem can also be easily replicated by accessing /proc/fs/ext4/<partition>/options in parallel: $ cat /proc/fs/ext4/<partition>/options > options.txt ... and then running the following command in two different terminals: $ while diff /proc/fs/ext4/<partition>/options options.txt; do true; done This is also the cause of the following a crash while running xfstests #234, as reported in the following bug reports: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1053019 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47731Signed-off-by:

commit 00d4e736 upstream. In ext4_nonda_switch(), if the file system is getting full we used to call writeback_inodes_sb_if_idle(). The problem is that we can be holding i_mutex already, and this causes a potential deadlock when writeback_inodes_sb_if_idle() when it tries to take s_umount. (See lockdep output below). As it turns out we don't need need to hold s_umount; the fact that we are in the middle of the write(2) system call will keep the superblock pinned. Unfortunately writeback_inodes_sb() checks to make sure s_umount is taken, and the VFS uses a different mechanism for making sure the file system doesn't get unmounted out from under us. The simplest way of dealing with this is to just simply grab s_umount using a trylock, and skip kicking the writeback flusher thread in the very unlikely case that we can't take a read lock on s_umount without blocking. Also, we now check the cirteria for kicking the writeback thread before we decide to whether to fall back to non-delayed writeback, so if there are any outstanding delayed allocation writes, we try to get them resolved as soon as possible.

commit 6df935ad upstream. The resize code was copying blocks at the beginning of each block group in order to copy the superblock and block group descriptor table (gdt) blocks. This was, unfortunately, being done even for block groups that did not have super blocks or gdt blocks.

commit 1965f66e upstream. For bridges with "secondary > subordinate", i.e., invalid bus number apertures, we don't enumerate anything behind the bridge unless the user specified "pci=assign-busses". This patch makes us automatically try to reassign the downstream bus numbers in this case (just for that bridge, not for all bridges as "pci=assign-busses" does). We don't discover all the devices on the Intel DP43BF motherboard without this change (or "pci=assign-busses") because its BIOS configures a bridge as: pci 0000:00:1e.0: PCI bridge to [bus 20-08] (subtractive decode) [bhelgaas: changelog, change message to dev_info] Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18412 Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=625754Reported-by:

commit d436de8c upstream. __scsi_remove_device (e.g. due to dev_loss_tmo) calls zfcp_scsi_slave_destroy which in turn sends a close LUN FSF request to the adapter. After 30 seconds without response, zfcp_erp_timeout_handler kicks the ERP thread failing the close LUN ERP action. zfcp_erp_wait in zfcp_erp_lun_shutdown_wait and thus zfcp_scsi_slave_destroy returns and then scsi_device is no longer valid. Sometime later the response to the close LUN FSF request may finally come in. However, commit b62a8d9b "[SCSI] zfcp: Use SCSI device data zfcp_scsi_dev instead of zfcp_unit" introduced a number of attempts to unconditionally access struct zfcp_scsi_dev through struct scsi_device causing a use-after-free. This leads to an Oops due to kernel page fault in one of: zfcp_fsf_abort_fcp_command_handler, zfcp_fsf_open_lun_handler, zfcp_fsf_close_lun_handler, zfcp_fsf_req_trace, zfcp_fsf_fcp_handler_common. Move dereferencing of zfcp private data zfcp_scsi_dev allocated in scsi_device via scsi_transport_reserve_device after the check for potentially aborted FSF request and thus no longer valid scsi_device. Only then assign sdev_to_zfcp(sdev) to the local auto variable struct zfcp_scsi_dev *zfcp_sdev. Signed-off-by:

commit d99b601b upstream. Upstream commit f3450c7b "[SCSI] zfcp: Replace local reference counting with common kref" accidentally dropped a reference count check before tearing down zfcp_ports that are potentially in use by zfcp_units. Even remote ports in use can be removed causing unreachable garbage objects zfcp_ports with zfcp_units. Thus units won't come back even after a manual port_rescan. The kref of zfcp_port->dev.kobj is already used by the driver core. We cannot re-use it to track the number of zfcp_units. Re-introduce our own counter for units per port and check on port_remove.

commit cb452149 upstream. If the mapping of FCP device bus ID and corresponding subchannel is modified while the Linux image is suspended, the resume of FCP devices can fail. During resume, zfcp gets callbacks from cio regarding the modified subchannels but they can be arbitrarily mixed with the restore/resume callback. Since the cio callbacks would trigger adapter recovery, zfcp could wakeup before the resume callback. Therefore, ignore the cio callbacks regarding subchannels while being suspended. We can safely do so, since zfcp does not deal itself with subchannels. For problem determination purposes, we still trace the ignored callback events. The following kernel messages could be seen on resume: kernel: <WWPN>: parent <FCP device bus ID> should not be sleeping As part of adapter reopen recovery, zfcp performs auto port scanning which can erroneously try to register new remote ports with scsi_transport_fc and the device core code complains about the parent (adapter) still sleeping. kernel: zfcp.3dff9c: <FCP device bus ID>:\ Setting up the QDIO connection to the FCP adapter failed <last kernel message repeated 3 more times> kernel: zfcp.574d43: <FCP device bus ID>:\ ERP cannot recover an error on the FCP device In such cases, the adapter gave up recovery and remained blocked along with its child objects: remote ports and LUNs/scsi devices. Even the adapter shutdown as part of giving up recovery failed because the ccw device state remained disconnected. Later, the corresponding remote ports ran into dev_loss_tmo. As a result, the LUNs were erroneously not available again after resume. Even a manually triggered adapter recovery (e.g. sysfs attribute failed, or device offline/online via sysfs) could not recover the adapter due to the remaining disconnected state of the corresponding ccw device.

commit 01e60527 upstream. The pl vector has scount elements, i.e. pl[scount-1] is the last valid element. For maximum sized requests, payload->counter == scount after the last loop iteration. Therefore, do bounds checking first (with boolean shortcut) to not access the invalid element pl[scount]. Do not trust the maximum sbale->scount value from the HBA but ensure we won't access the pl vector out of our allocated bounds. While at it, clean up scoping and prevent unnecessary memset.

[ Upstream commit c0d680e5 ] A change in a series of VLAN-related changes appears to have inadvertently disabled the use of the scatter gather feature of network cards for transmission of non-IP ethernet protocols like ATA over Ethernet (AoE). Below is a reference to the commit that introduces a "harmonize_features" function that turns off scatter gather when the NIC does not support hardware checksumming for the ethernet protocol of an sk buff. commit f01a5236 Author: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Date: Sun Jan 9 06:23:31 2011 +0000 net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features(). The can_checksum_protocol function is not equipped to consider a protocol that does not require checksumming. Calling it for a protocol that requires no checksum is inappropriate. The patch below has harmonize_features call can_checksum_protocol when the protocol needs a checksum, so that the network layer is not forced to perform unnecessary skb linearization on the transmission of AoE packets. Unnecessary linearization results in decreased performance and increased memory pressure, as reported here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg15184.html The problem has probably not been widely experienced yet, because only recently has the kernel.org-distributed aoe driver acquired the ability to use payloads of over a page in size, with the patchset recently included in the mm tree: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/28/140 The coraid.com-distributed aoe driver already could use payloads of greater than a page in size, but its users generally do not use the newest kernels.

[ Upstream commit 68622342 ] In the current rxhash calculation function, while the sorting of the ports/addrs is coherent (you get the same rxhash for packets sharing the same 4-tuple, in both directions), ports and addrs are sorted independently. This implies packets from a connection between the same addresses but crossed ports hash to the same rxhash. For example, traffic between A=S:l and B=L:s is hashed (in both directions) from {L, S, {s, l}}. The same rxhash is obtained for packets between C=S:s and D=L:l. This patch ensures that you either swap both addrs and ports, or you swap none. Traffic between A and B, and traffic between C and D, get their rxhash from different sources ({L, S, {l, s}} for A<->B, and {L, S, {s, l}} for C<->D) The patch is co-written with Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 4c3a5bda ] SCTP charges wmem_alloc via sctp_set_owner_w() in sctp_sendmsg() and via skb_set_owner_w() in sctp_packet_transmit(). If a sender runs out of sndbuf it will sleep in sctp_wait_for_sndbuf() and expects to be waken up by __sctp_write_space(). Buffer space charged via sctp_set_owner_w() is released in sctp_wfree() which calls __sctp_write_space() directly. Buffer space charged via skb_set_owner_w() is released via sock_wfree() which calls sk->sk_write_space() _if_ SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE is not set. sctp_endpoint_init() sets SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE on all sockets. Therefore if sctp_packet_transmit() manages to queue up more than sndbuf bytes, sctp_wait_for_sndbuf() will never be woken up again unless it is interrupted by a signal. This could be fixed by clearing the SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE flag but ... Charging for the data twice does not make sense in the first place, it leads to overcharging sndbuf by a factor 2. Therefore this patch only charges a single byte in wmem_alloc when transmitting an SCTP packet to ensure that the socket stays alive until the packet has been released. This means that control chunks are no longer accounted for in wmem_alloc which I believe is not a problem as skb->truesize will typically lead to overcharging anyway and thus compensates for any control overhead.

[ Upstream commit 15c04175 ] If recv() syscall is called for a TCP socket so that - IOAT DMA is used - MSG_WAITALL flag is used - requested length is bigger than sk_rcvbuf - enough data has already arrived to bring rcv_wnd to zero then when tcp_recvmsg() gets to calling sk_wait_data(), receive window can be still zero while sk_async_wait_queue exhausts enough space to keep it zero. As this queue isn't cleaned until the tcp_service_net_dma() call, sk_wait_data() cannot receive any data and blocks forever. If zero receive window and non-empty sk_async_wait_queue is detected before calling sk_wait_data(), process the queue first. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit f950c0ec ] In case of error, the function fib6_add_1() returns ERR_PTR() or NULL pointer. The ERR_PTR() case check is missing in fib6_add(). dpatch engine is used to generated this patch. (https://github.com/weiyj/dpatch) Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 64c6d08e ] When an address is added on loopback (ip -6 a a 2002::1/128 dev lo), two routes are added: - one in the local table: local 2002::1 via :: dev lo proto none metric 0 - one the in main table (for the prefix): unreachable 2002::1 dev lo proto kernel metric 256 error -101 When the address is deleted, the route inserted in the main table remains because we use rt6_lookup(), which returns NULL when dst->error is set, which is the case here! Thus, it is better to use ip6_route_lookup() to avoid this kind of filter. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 6825a26c ] as we hold dst_entry before we call __ip6_del_rt, so we should alse call dst_release not only return -ENOENT when the rt6_info is ip6_null_entry. and we already hold the dst entry, so I think it's safe to call dst_release out of the write-read lock. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 71261956 ] If the old timestamps of a class, say cl, are stale when the class becomes active, then QFQ may assign to cl a much higher start time than the maximum value allowed. This may happen when QFQ assigns to the start time of cl the finish time of a group whose classes are characterized by a higher value of the ratio max_class_pkt/weight_of_the_class with respect to that of cl. Inserting a class with a too high start time into the bucket list corrupts the data structure and may eventually lead to crashes. This patch limits the maximum start time assigned to a class.
