commit 49999ab2 upstream. In autofs4_d_automount(), if a mount fail occurs the AUTOFS_INF_PENDING mount pending flag is not cleared. One effect of this is when using the "browse" option, directory entry attributes show up with all "?"s due to the incorrect callback and subsequent failure return (when in fact no callback should be made).

commit 790198f7 upstream. Fix two bugs of the /dev/fw* character device concerning the FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_INFO ioctl with nonzero fw_cdev_get_info.bus_reset. (Practically all /dev/fw* clients issue this ioctl right after opening the device.) Both bugs are caused by sizeof(struct fw_cdev_event_bus_reset) being 36 without natural alignment and 40 with natural alignment. 1) Memory corruption, affecting i386 userland on amd64 kernel: Userland reserves a 36 bytes large buffer, kernel writes 40 bytes. This has been first found and reported against libraw1394 if compiled with gcc 4.7 which happens to order libraw1394's stack such that the bug became visible as data corruption. 2) Information leak, affecting all kernel architectures except i386: 4 bytes of random kernel stack data were leaked to userspace. Hence limit the respective copy_to_user() to the 32-bit aligned size of struct fw_cdev_event_bus_reset.

commit 36e4f20a upstream. Commit 0c176d52 ("mm: hugetlb: fix pgoff computation when unmapping page from vma") fixed pgoff calculation but it has replaced it by vma_hugecache_offset() which is not approapriate for offsets used for vma_prio_tree_foreach() because that one expects index in page units rather than in huge_page_shift. Johannes said: : The resulting index may not be too big, but it can be too small: assume : hpage size of 2M and the address to unmap to be 0x200000. This is regular : page index 512 and hpage index 1. If you have a VMA that maps the file : only starting at the second huge page, that VMAs vm_pgoff will be 512 but : you ask for offset 1 and miss it even though it does map the page of : interest. hugetlb_cow() will try to unmap, miss the vma, and retry the : cow until the allocation succeeds or the skipped vma(s) go away.

Andrea Arcangeli authored
commit 027ef6c8 upstream. In many places !pmd_present has been converted to pmd_none. For pmds that's equivalent and pmd_none is quicker so using pmd_none is better. However (unless we delete pmd_present) we should provide an accurate pmd_present too. This will avoid the risk of code thinking the pmd is non present because it's under __split_huge_page_map, see the pmd_mknotpresent there and the comment above it. If the page has been mprotected as PROT_NONE, it would also lead to a pmd_present false negative in the same way as the race with split_huge_page. Because the PSE bit stays on at all times (both during split_huge_page and when the _PAGE_PROTNONE bit get set), we could only check for the PSE bit, but checking the PROTNONE bit too is still good to remember pmd_present must always keep PROT_NONE into account. This explains a not reproducible BUG_ON that was seldom reported on the lists. The same issue is in pmd_large, it would go wrong with both PROT_NONE and if it races with split_huge_page.

commit ec4d9f62 upstream. In fuzzing with trinity, lockdep protested "possible irq lock inversion dependency detected" when isolate_lru_page() reenabled interrupts while still holding the supposedly irq-safe tree_lock: invalidate_inode_pages2 invalidate_complete_page2 spin_lock_irq(&mapping->tree_lock) clear_page_mlock isolate_lru_page spin_unlock_irq(&zone->lru_lock) isolate_lru_page() is correct to enable interrupts unconditionally: invalidate_complete_page2() is incorrect to call clear_page_mlock() while holding tree_lock, which is supposed to nest inside lru_lock. Both truncate_complete_page() and invalidate_complete_page() call clear_page_mlock() before taking tree_lock to remove page from radix_tree. I guess invalidate_complete_page2() preferred to test PageDirty (again) under tree_lock before committing to the munlock; but since the page has already been unmapped, its state is already somewhat inconsistent, and no worse if clear_page_mlock() moved up.

commit d4f1e48b upstream. When the loopback timer handler is running, calling del_timer() (for STOP trigger) will not wait for the handler to complete before deactivating the timer. The timer gets rescheduled in the handler as usual. Then a subsequent START trigger will try to start the timer using add_timer() with a timer pending leading to a kernel panic. Serialize the calls to add_timer() and del_timer() using a spin lock to avoid this.

commit f96972f2 upstream. As kernel_power_off() calls disable_nonboot_cpus(), we may also want to have kernel_restart() call disable_nonboot_cpus(). Doing so can help machines that require boot cpu be the last alive cpu during reboot to survive with kernel restart. This fixes one reboot issue seen on imx6q (Cortex-A9 Quad). The machine requires that the restart routine be run on the primary cpu rather than secondary ones. Otherwise, the secondary core running the restart routine will fail to come to online after reboot.

commit 0f6d93aa upstream. The ACARD driver calls udelay() with a value > 2000, which leads to to the following compilation error on ARM: ERROR: "__bad_udelay" [drivers/scsi/atp870u.ko] undefined! make[1]: *** [__modpost] Error 1 This is because udelay is defined on ARM, roughly speaking, as #define udelay(n) ((n) > 2000 ? __bad_udelay() : \ __const_udelay((n) * ((2199023U*HZ)>>11))) The argument to __const_udelay is the number of jiffies to wait divided by 4, but this does not work unless the multiplication does not overflow, and that is what the build error is designed to prevent. The intended behavior can be achieved by using mdelay to call udelay multiple times in a loop.

commit c353acba upstream. The call if_changed mechanism does not work when the command contains backslashes. This basically is an issue with lzo and bzip2 compressed kernels. The compressed binaries do not contain the uncompressed image size, so these use size_append to append the size. This results in backslashes in the executed command. With this if_changed always detects a change in the command and rebuilds the compressed image even if nothing has changed.

commit 74d44445 upstream. ... since finish_page_flip needs the vblank timestamp generated in drm_handle_vblank. Somehow all the gmch platforms get it right, but all the pch platform irq handlers get is wrong. Hooray for copy& pasting! Currently this gets papered over by a gross hack in finish_page_flip. A second patch will remove that. Note that without this, the new timestamp sanity checks in flip_test occasionally get tripped up, hence the cc: stable tag.

commit cf0eb28d upstream. This patch increases the default for nopin_timeout to 15 seconds (wait between sending a new NopIN ping) and nopin_response_timeout to 30 seconds (wait for NopOUT response before failing the connection) in order to avoid false positives by iSCSI Initiators who are not always able (under load) to respond to NopIN echo PING requests within the current 5 second window. False positives have been observed recently using Open-iSCSI code on v3.3.x with heavy large-block READ workloads over small MTU 1 Gb/sec ports, and increasing these values to more reasonable defaults significantly reduces the possibility of false positive NopIN response timeout events under this specific workload. Historically these have been set low to initiate connection recovery as soon as possible if we don't hear a ping back, but for modern v3.x code on 1 -> 10 Gb/sec ports these new defaults make alot more sense.

commit c4c8eeb4 upstream. In some cases mmc_suspend_host() is not able to claim the host and proceed with the suspend process. The core returns -EBUSY to the host controller driver. Unfortunately, the host controller driver does not pass on this information to the PM core and hence the system suspend process continues. ret = mmc_suspend_host(host->mmc); if (ret) { host->suspended = 0; if (host->pdata->resume) { ret = host->pdata->resume(dev, host->slot_id); The return status from mmc_suspend_host() is overwritten by return status from host->pdata->resume. So the original return status is lost. In these cases the MMC core gets to an unexpected state during resume and multiple issues related to MMC crop up. 1. Host controller driver starts accessing the device registers before the clocks are enabled which leads to a prefetch abort. 2. A file copy thread which was launched before suspend gets stuck due to the host not being reclaimed during resume. To avoid such problems pass on the -EBUSY status to the PM core from the host controller driver. With this change, MMC core suspend might still fail but it does not end up making the system unusable. Suspend gets aborted and the user can try suspending the system again.

commit b1e0d8b7 upstream. The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not "gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers such as icecream do expect. This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel miscompilations. Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this incorrect -x parameter syntax.

commit 875de986 upstream. "echo -e" is a GNU extension. When cross-compiling the kernel on a BSD-like operating system (Mac OS X in my case), this doesn't work. One could install a GNU version of echo, put that in the $PATH before the system echo and use "/usr/bin/env echo", but the solution with printf is simpler. Since it is no disadvantage on Linux, I hope that gets accepted even if cross-compiling the Linux kernel on another Unix operating system is quite a rare use case.

commit 38b11bae upstream. We've had reports in the past about this specific case, so it's time to go ahead and explicitly set cache_dynamic_acls=1 for generate_node_acls=1 (TPG demo-mode) operation. During normal generate_node_acls=0 operation with explicit NodeACLs -> se_node_acl memory is persistent to the configfs group located at /sys/kernel/config/target/$TARGETNAME/$TPGT/acls/$INITIATORNAME, so in the generate_node_acls=1 case we want the reservation logic to reference existing per initiator IQN se_node_acl memory (not to generate a new se_node_acl), so go ahead and always set cache_dynamic_acls=1 when TPG demo-mode is enabled.

commit 5bb61643 upstream. This was meant to be the purpose of the intel_crtc_wait_for_pending_flips() function which is called whilst preparing the CRTC for a modeset or before disabling. However, as Ville Syrjala pointed out, we set the pending flip notification on the old framebuffer that is no longer attached to the CRTC by the time we come to flush the pending operations. Instead, we can simply wait on the pending unpin work to be finished on this CRTC, knowning that the hardware has therefore finished modifying the registers, before proceeding with our direct access. Fixes i-g-t/flip_test on non-pch platforms. pch platforms simply schedule the flip immediately when the pipe is disabled, leading to other funny issues.

commit 4eae518d upstream. The kbuild target 'localyesconfig' has been same as 'localmodconfig' since the commit 50bce3e8 "kconfig/streamline_config.pl: merge local{mod,yes}config". The commit expects this script generates different configure depending on target, but it was not yet implemented. So I added code that sets to 'yes' when target is 'localyesconfig'.

commit 9b796d06 upstream. srp_free_req() uses the scsi_cmnd structure contents to unmap buffers, so we must invoke srp_free_req() before we release ownership of that structure.

commit bea1e22d upstream. Fix a crash in ipoib_mcast_join_task(). (with help from Or Gerlitz) Commit c8c2afe3 ("IPoIB: Use rtnl lock/unlock when changing device flags") added a call to rtnl_lock() in ipoib_mcast_join_task(), which is run from the ipoib_workqueue, and hence the workqueue can't be flushed from the context of ipoib_stop(). In the current code, ipoib_stop() (which doesn't flush the workqueue) calls ipoib_mcast_dev_flush(), which goes and deletes all the multicast entries. This takes place without any synchronization with a possible running instance of ipoib_mcast_join_task() for the same ipoib device, leading to a crash due to NULL pointer dereference. Fix this by making sure that the workqueue is flushed before ipoib_mcast_dev_flush() is called. To make that possible, we move the RTNL-lock wrapped code to ipoib_mcast_join_finish().

commit bb0a13a1 upstream. If override size is too big, the module was actually loaded instead of failing, because retval was not set. This lead to memory corruption with the use of the freed structs nandsim and nand_chip.

commit 74d83bea upstream. JFFS2 was designed without thought for OOB bitflips, it seems, but they can occur and will be reported to JFFS2 via mtd_read_oob()[1]. We don't want to fail on these transactions, since the data was corrected. [1] Few drivers report bitflips for OOB-only transactions. With such drivers, this patch should have no effect.
