commit 7122beee upstream. The following commit breaks numa distance setup for old powerpc systems that use form0 encoding in device tree. commit 41eab6f8 powerpc/numa: Use form 1 affinity to setup node distance Device tree node /rtas/ibm,associativity-reference-points would index into /cpus/PowerPCxxxx/ibm,associativity based on form0 or form1 encoding detected by ibm,architecture-vec-5 property. All modern systems use form1 and current kernel code is correct. However, on older systems with form0 encoding, the numa distance will get hard coded as LOCAL_DISTANCE for all nodes. This causes task scheduling anomaly since scheduler will skip building numa level domain (topmost domain with all cpus) if all numa distances are same. (value of 'level' in sched_init_numa() will remain 0) Prior to the above commit: ((from) == (to) ? LOCAL_DISTANCE : REMOTE_DISTANCE) Restoring compatible behavior with this patch for old powerpc systems with device tree where numa distance are encoded as form0. Signed-off-by:

commit e12a2d53 upstream. The routine to query the base of stolen memory was using the wrong registers and the wrong encodings on virtually every platform. It was not until the G33 refresh, that a PCI config register was introduced that explicitly said where the stolen memory was. Prior to 865G there was not even a register that said where the end of usable low memory was and where the stolen memory began (or ended depending upon chipset). Before then, one has to look at the BIOS memory maps to find the Top of Memory. Alas that is not exported by arch/x86 and so we have to resort to disabling stolen memory on gen2 for the time being. Then SandyBridge enlarged the PCI register to a full 32-bits and change the encoding of the address, so even though we happened to be querying the right register, we read the wrong bits and ended up using address 0 for our stolen data, i.e. notably FBC.

[ Commits f36391d2 and f0af9707 upstream. ] As reported by Dave Kleikamp, when we emit cross calls to do batched TLB flush processing we have a race because we do not synchronize on the sibling cpus completing the cross call. So meanwhile the TLB batch can be reset (tb->tlb_nr set to zero, etc.) and either flushes are missed or flushes will flush the wrong addresses. Fix this by using generic infrastructure to synchonize on the completion of the cross call. This first required getting the flush_tlb_pending() call out from switch_to() which operates with locks held and interrupts disabled. The problem is that smp_call_function_many() cannot be invoked with IRQs disabled and this is explicitly checked for with WARN_ON_ONCE(). We get the batch processing outside of locked IRQ disabled sections by using some ideas from the powerpc port. Namely, we only batch inside of arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode() calls. If we're not in such a region, we flush TLBs synchronously. 1) Get rid of xcall_flush_tlb_pending and per-cpu type implementations. 2) Do TLB batch cross calls instead via: smp_call_function_many() tlb_pending_func() __flush_tlb_pending() 3) Batch only in lazy mmu sequences: a) Add 'active' member to struct tlb_batch b) Define __HAVE_ARCH_ENTER_LAZY_MMU_MODE c) Set 'active' in arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() d) Run batch and clear 'active' in arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode() e) Check 'active' in tlb_batch_add_one() and do a synchronous flush if it's clear. 4) Add infrastructure for synchronous TLB page flushes. a) Implement __flush_tlb_page and per-cpu variants, patch as needed. b) Likewise for xcall_flush_tlb_page. c) Implement smp_flush_tlb_page() to invoke the cross-call. d) Wire up global_flush_tlb_page() to the right routine based upon CONFIG_SMP 5) It turns out that singleton batches are very common, 2 out of every 3 batch flushes have only a single entry in them. The batch flush waiting is very expensive, both because of the poll on sibling cpu completeion, as well as because passing the tlb batch pointer to the sibling cpus invokes a shared memory dereference. Therefore, in flush_tlb_pending(), if there is only one entry in the batch perform a completely asynchronous global_flush_tlb_page() instead. Reported-by:

[ Upstream commit 97599dc7 ] Commit 4a94445c (net: Use ip_route_input_noref() in input path) added a bug in IP defragmentation handling, as non refcounted dst could escape an RCU protected section. Commit 64f3b9e2 (net: ip_expire() must revalidate route) fixed the case of timeouts, but not the general problem. Tom Parkin noticed crashes in UDP stack and provided a patch, but further analysis permitted us to pinpoint the root cause. Before queueing a packet into a frag list, we must drop its dst, as this dst has limited lifetime (RCU protected) When/if a packet is finally reassembled, we use the dst of the very last skb, still protected by RCU and valid, as the dst of the reassembled packet. Use same logic in IPv6, as there is no need to hold dst references. Reported-by:

[ Upstream commit 60085c3d ] The code in set_orig_addr() does not initialize all of the members of struct sockaddr_tipc when filling the sockaddr info -- namely the union is only partly filled. This will make recv_msg() and recv_stream() -- the only users of this function -- leak kernel stack memory as the msg_name member is a local variable in net/socket.c. Additionally to that both recv_msg() and recv_stream() fail to update the msg_namelen member to 0 while otherwise returning with 0, i.e. "success". This is the case for, e.g., non-blocking sockets. This will lead to a 128 byte kernel stack leak in net/socket.c. Fix the first issue by initializing the memory of the union with memset(0). Fix the second one by setting msg_namelen to 0 early as it will be updated later if we're going to fill the msg_name member.

[ Upstream commit 124dff01 ] Commit 130549fe ("netfilter: reset nf_trace in nf_reset") added code to reset nf_trace in nf_reset(). This is wrong and unnecessary. nf_reset() is used in the following cases: - when passing packets up the the socket layer, at which point we want to release all netfilter references that might keep modules pinned while the packet is queued. nf_trace doesn't matter anymore at this point. - when encapsulating or decapsulating IPsec packets. We want to continue tracing these packets after IPsec processing. - when passing packets through virtual network devices. Only devices on that encapsulate in IPv4/v6 matter since otherwise nf_trace is not used anymore. Its not entirely clear whether those packets should be traced after that, however we've always done that. - when passing packets through virtual network devices that make the packet cross network namespace boundaries. This is the only cases where we clearly want to reset nf_trace and is also what the original patch intended to fix. Add a new function nf_reset_trace() and use it in dev_forward_skb() to fix this properly. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 0e82e7f6 ] It was reported that the following LSB test case failed https://lsbbugs.linuxfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=2144 because we were not coallescing unix stream messages when the application was expecting us to. The problem was that the first send was before the socket was accepted and thus sock->sk_socket was NULL in maybe_add_creds, and the second send after the socket was accepted had a non-NULL value for sk->socket and thus we could tell the credentials were not needed so we did not bother. The unnecessary credentials on the first message cause unix_stream_recvmsg to start verifying that all messages had the same credentials before coallescing and then the coallescing failed because the second message had no credentials. Ignoring credentials when we don't care in unix_stream_recvmsg fixes a long standing pessimization which would fail to coallesce messages when reading from a unix stream socket if the senders were different even if we did not care about their credentials. I have tested this and verified that the in the LSB test case mentioned above that the messages do coallesce now, while the were failing to coallesce without this change. Reported-by:

In some cases (bond/team) a single address list is synched down to multiple devices. At the time of unsync, we have a leak in these lower devices, because "synced" is treated as a boolean and the address will not be unsynced for anything after the first device/call. Treat "synced" as a count (same as refcount) and allow all unsync calls to work. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 25fb6ca4 ] IPv6 Routing table becomes broken once we do ifdown, ifup of the loopback(lo) interface. After down-up, routes of other interface's IPv6 addresses through 'lo' are lost. IPv6 addresses assigned to all interfaces are routed through 'lo' for internal communication. Once 'lo' is down, those routing entries are removed from routing table. But those removed entries are not being re-created properly when 'lo' is brought up. So IPv6 addresses of other interfaces becomes unreachable from the same machine. Also this breaks communication with other machines because of NDISC packet processing failure. This patch fixes this issue by reading all interface's IPv6 addresses and adding them to IPv6 routing table while bringing up 'lo'. ==Testing== Before applying the patch: $ route -A inet6 Kernel IPv6 routing table Destination Next Hop Flag Met Ref Use If 2000::20/128 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 fe80::/64 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 ::/0 :: !n -1 1 1 lo ::1/128 :: Un 0 1 0 lo 2000::20/128 :: Un 0 1 0 lo fe80::xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx/128 :: Un 0 1 0 lo ff00::/8 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 ::/0 :: !n -1 1 1 lo $ sudo ifdown lo $ sudo ifup lo $ route -A inet6 Kernel IPv6 routing table Destination Next Hop Flag Met Ref Use If 2000::20/128 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 fe80::/64 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 ::/0 :: !n -1 1 1 lo ::1/128 :: Un 0 1 0 lo ff00::/8 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 ::/0 :: !n -1 1 1 lo $ After applying the patch: $ route -A inet6 Kernel IPv6 routing table Destination Next Hop Flag Met Ref Use If 2000::20/128 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 fe80::/64 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 ::/0 :: !n -1 1 1 lo ::1/128 :: Un 0 1 0 lo 2000::20/128 :: Un 0 1 0 lo fe80::xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx/128 :: Un 0 1 0 lo ff00::/8 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 ::/0 :: !n -1 1 1 lo $ sudo ifdown lo $ sudo ifup lo $ route -A inet6 Kernel IPv6 routing table Destination Next Hop Flag Met Ref Use If 2000::20/128 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 fe80::/64 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 ::/0 :: !n -1 1 1 lo ::1/128 :: Un 0 1 0 lo 2000::20/128 :: Un 0 1 0 lo fe80::xxxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx/128 :: Un 0 1 0 lo ff00::/8 :: U 256 0 0 eth0 ::/0 :: !n -1 1 1 lo $ Signed-off-by:

commit b4cbb197 upstream. Various drivers end up replicating the code to mmap() their memory buffers into user space, and our core memory remapping function may be very flexible but it is unnecessarily complicated for the common cases to use. Our internal VM uses pfn's ("page frame numbers") which simplifies things for the VM, and allows us to pass physical addresses around in a denser and more efficient format than passing a "phys_addr_t" around, and having to shift it up and down by the page size. But it just means that drivers end up doing that shifting instead at the interface level. It also means that drivers end up mucking around with internal VM things like the vma details (vm_pgoff, vm_start/end) way more than they really need to. So this just exports a function to map a certain physical memory range into user space (using a phys_addr_t based interface that is much more natural for a driver) and hides all the complexity from the driver. Some drivers will still end up tweaking the vm_page_prot details for things like prefetching or cacheability etc, but that's actually relevant to the driver, rather than caring about what the page offset of the mapping is into the particular IO memory region.

A distinction between desktop and server parts is introduced because bits 24-30 are only available on the server parts. This version of the patch is just a rebase to perf/urgent tree and should apply to older kernels as well. Signed-off-by:

commit 8176cced upstream. Trinity discovered that we fail to check all 64 bits of attr.config passed by user space, resulting to out-of-bounds access of the perf_swevent_enabled array in sw_perf_event_destroy(). Introduced in commit b0a873eb ("perf: Register PMU implementations"). Signed-off-by:
