[ Upstream commit 059dfa6a ] time_after_eq() only works if the delta is < MAX_ULONG/2. For a 32bit Dom0, if netfront sends packets at a very low rate, the time between subsequent calls to tx_credit_exceeded() may exceed MAX_ULONG/2 and the test for timer_after_eq() will be incorrect. Credit will not be replenished and the guest may become unable to send packets (e.g., if prior to the long gap, all credit was exhausted). Use jiffies_64 variant to mitigate this problem for 32bit Dom0. Suggested-by:

commit 7cb2ef56 upstream. I am working with a tool that simulates oracle database I/O workload. This tool (orion to be specific - <http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16638/iodesign.htm#autoId24>) allocates hugetlbfs pages using shmget() with SHM_HUGETLB flag. It then does aio into these pages from flash disks using various common block sizes used by database. I am looking at performance with two of the most common block sizes - 1M and 64K. aio performance with these two block sizes plunged after Transparent HugePages was introduced in the kernel. Here are performance numbers: pre-THP 2.6.39 3.11-rc5 1M read 8384 MB/s 5629 MB/s 6501 MB/s 64K read 7867 MB/s 4576 MB/s 4251 MB/s I have narrowed the performance impact down to the overheads introduced by THP in __get_page_tail() and put_compound_page() routines. perf top shows >40% of cycles being spent in these two routines. Every time direct I/O to hugetlbfs pages starts, kernel calls get_page() to grab a reference to the pages and calls put_page() when I/O completes to put the reference away. THP introduced significant amount of locking overhead to get_page() and put_page() when dealing with compound pages because hugepages can be split underneath get_page() and put_page(). It added this overhead irrespective of whether it is dealing with hugetlbfs pages or transparent hugepages. This resulted in 20%-45% drop in aio performance when using hugetlbfs pages. Since hugetlbfs pages can not be split, there is no reason to go through all the locking overhead for these pages from what I can see. I added code to __get_page_tail() and put_compound_page() to bypass all the locking code when working with hugetlbfs pages. This improved performance significantly. Performance numbers with this patch: pre-THP 3.11-rc5 3.11-rc5 + Patch 1M read 8384 MB/s 6501 MB/s 8371 MB/s 64K read 7867 MB/s 4251 MB/s 6510 MB/s Performance with 64K read is still lower than what it was before THP, but still a 53% improvement. It does mean there is more work to be done but I will take a 53% improvement for now. Please take a look at the following patch and let me know if it looks reasonable.

commit 3d77b50c upstream. Commit b1adaf65 ("[SCSI] block: add sg buffer copy helper functions") introduces two sg buffer copy helpers, and calls flush_kernel_dcache_page() on pages in SG list after these pages are written to. Unfortunately, the commit may introduce a potential bug: - Before sending some SCSI commands, kmalloc() buffer may be passed to block layper, so flush_kernel_dcache_page() can see a slab page finally - According to cachetlb.txt, flush_kernel_dcache_page() is only called on "a user page", which surely can't be a slab page. - ARCH's implementation of flush_kernel_dcache_page() may use page mapping information to do optimization so page_mapping() will see the slab page, then VM_BUG_ON() is triggered. Aaro Koskinen reported the bug on ARM/kirkwood when DEBUG_VM is enabled, and this patch fixes the bug by adding test of '!PageSlab(miter->page)' before calling flush_kernel_dcache_page().

commit 54e181e0 upstream. Since the beginning of the parisc-linux port, sometimes 64bit SMP kernels were not able to bring up other CPUs than the monarch CPU and instead crashed the kernel. The reason was unclear, esp. since it involved various machines (e.g. J5600, J6750 and SuperDome). Testing showed, that those crashes didn't happened when less than 4GB were installed, or if a 32bit Linux kernel was booted. In the end, the fix for those SMP problems is trivial: During the early phase of the initialization of the CPUs, including the monarch CPU, the PDC_PSW firmware function to enable WIDE (=64bit) mode is called. It's documented that this firmware function may clobber various registers, and one one of those possibly clobbered registers is %cr30 which holds the task thread info pointer. Now, if %cr30 would always have been clobbered, then this bug would have been detected much earlier. But lots of testing finally showed, that - at least for %cr30 - on some machines only the upper 32bits of the 64bit register suddenly turned zero after the firmware call. So, after finding the root cause, the explanation for the various crashes became clear: - On 32bit SMP Linux kernels all upper 32bit were zero, so we didn't faced this problem. - Monarch CPUs in 64bit mode always booted sucessfully, because the inital task thread info pointer was below 4GB. - Secondary CPUs booted sucessfully on machines with less than 4GB RAM because the upper 32bit were zero anyay. - Secondary CPus failed to boot if we had more than 4GB RAM and the task thread info pointer was located above the 4GB boundary. Finally, the patch to fix this problem is trivial by saving the %cr30 register before the firmware call and restoring it afterwards. Signed-off-by:

commit 97b94106 upstream. Marc Kleine-Budde pointed out, that commit 77cc982f "clocksource: use clockevents_config_and_register() where possible" caused a regression for some of the converted subarchs. The reason is, that the clockevents core code converts the minimal hardware tick delta to a nanosecond value for core internal usage. This conversion is affected by integer math rounding loss, so the backwards conversion to hardware ticks will likely result in a value which is less than the configured hardware limitation. The affected subarchs used their own workaround (SIGH!) which got lost in the conversion. The solution for the issue at hand is simple: adding evt->mult - 1 to the shifted value before the integer divison in the core conversion function takes care of it. But this only works for the case where for the scaled math mult/shift pair "mult <= 1 << shift" is true. For the case where "mult > 1 << shift" we can apply the rounding add only for the minimum delta value to make sure that the backward conversion is not less than the given hardware limit. For the upper bound we need to omit the rounding add, because the backwards conversion is always larger than the original latch value. That would violate the upper bound of the hardware device. Though looking closer at the details of that function reveals another bogosity: The upper bounds check is broken as well. Checking for a resulting "clc" value greater than KTIME_MAX after the conversion is pointless. The conversion does: u64 clc = (latch << evt->shift) / evt->mult; So there is no sanity check for (latch << evt->shift) exceeding the 64bit boundary. The latch argument is "unsigned long", so on a 64bit arch the handed in argument could easily lead to an unnoticed shift overflow. With the above rounding fix applied the calculation before the divison is: u64 clc = (latch << evt->shift) + evt->mult - 1; So we need to make sure, that neither the shift nor the rounding add is overflowing the u64 boundary. [ukl: move assignment to rnd after eventually changing mult, fix build issue and correct comment with the right math] Signed-off-by:

commit 61e4947c upstream. Since: commit 7ceb17e8 md: Allow devices to be re-added to a read-only array. spares are activated on a read-only array. In case of raid1 and raid10 personalities it causes that not-in-sync devices are marked in-sync without checking if recovery has been finished. If a read-only array is degraded and one of its devices is not in-sync (because the array has been only partially recovered) recovery will be skipped. This patch adds checking if recovery has been finished before marking a device in-sync for raid1 and raid10 personalities. In case of raid5 personality such condition is already present (at raid5.c:6029). Bug was introduced in 3.10 and causes data corruption. Signed-off-by:

commit f13e2201 upstream. libata EH decrements scmd->retries when the command failed for reasons unrelated to the command itself so that, for example, commands aborted due to suspend / resume cycle don't get penalized; however, decrementing scmd->retries isn't enough for ATA passthrough commands. Without this fix, ATA passthrough commands are not resend to the drive, and no error is signalled to the caller because: - allowed retry count is 1 - ata_eh_qc_complete fill the sense data, so result is valid - sense data is filled with untouched ATA registers.

commit d5a7b406 upstream. In patch 0d1862ea can: flexcan: fix flexcan_chip_start() on imx6 the loop in flexcan_chip_start() that iterates over all mailboxes after the soft reset of the CAN core was removed. This loop put all mailboxes (even the ones marked as reserved 1...7) into EMPTY/INACTIVE mode. On mailboxes 8...63, this aborts any pending TX messages. After a cold boot there is random garbage in the mailboxes, which leads to spontaneous transmit of CAN frames during first activation. Further if the interface was disabled with a pending message (usually due to an error condition on the CAN bus), this message is retransmitted after enabling the interface again. This patch fixes the regression by: 1) Limiting the maximum number of used mailboxes to 8, 0...7 are used by the RX FIFO, 8 is used by TX. 2) Marking the TX mailbox as EMPTY/INACTIVE, so that any pending TX of that mailbox is aborted.

commit a754055a upstream. __ieee80211_scan_completed is called from a worker. This means that the following flow is possible. * driver calls ieee80211_scan_completed * mac80211 cancels the scan (that is already complete) * __ieee80211_scan_completed runs When scan_work will finally run, it will see that the scan hasn't been aborted and might even trigger another scan on another band. This leads to a situation where cfg80211's scan is not done and no further scan can be issued. Fix this by setting a new flag when a HW scan is being cancelled so that no other scan will be triggered. Signed-off-by:

commit f5563318 upstream. When parsing an invalid radiotap header, the parser can overrun the buffer that is passed in because it doesn't correctly check 1) the minimum radiotap header size 2) the space for extended bitmaps The first issue doesn't affect any in-kernel user as they all check the minimum size before calling the radiotap function. The second issue could potentially affect the kernel if an skb is passed in that consists only of the radiotap header with a lot of extended bitmaps that extend past the SKB. In that case a read-only buffer overrun by at most 4 bytes is possible. Fix this by adding the appropriate checks to the parser. Reported-by:

commit e9c6a182 upstream. This patch fixes a particular type of data corruption that has been encountered when loading a snapshot's metadata from disk. When we allocate a new chunk in persistent_prepare, we increment ps->next_free and we make sure that it doesn't point to a metadata area by further incrementing it if necessary. When we load metadata from disk on device activation, ps->next_free is positioned after the last used data chunk. However, if this last used data chunk is followed by a metadata area, ps->next_free is positioned erroneously to the metadata area. A newly-allocated chunk is placed at the same location as the metadata area, resulting in data or metadata corruption. This patch changes the code so that ps->next_free skips the metadata area when metadata are loaded in function read_exceptions. The patch also moves a piece of code from persistent_prepare_exception to a separate function skip_metadata to avoid code duplication. CVE-2013-4299 Signed-off-by:

commit d7dab39b upstream. This is based on commit d1f5273e ext4: return 32/64-bit dir name hash according to usage type by Fan Yong <yong.fan@whamcloud.com> Traditionally ext2/3/4 has returned a 32-bit hash value from llseek() to appease NFSv2, which can only handle a 32-bit cookie for seekdir() and telldir(). However, this causes problems if there are 32-bit hash collisions, since the NFSv2 server can get stuck resending the same entries from the directory repeatedly. Allow ext3 to return a full 64-bit hash (both major and minor) for telldir to decrease the chance of hash collisions. This patch does implement a new ext3_dir_llseek op, because with 64-bit hashes, nfs will attempt to seek to a hash "offset" which is much larger than ext3's s_maxbytes. So for dx dirs, we call generic_file_llseek_size() with the appropriate max hash value as the maximum seekable size. Otherwise we just pass through to generic_file_llseek(). Patch-updated-by:

[ Upstream commit d69e0f7e ] When IFF_ALLMULTI flag is set on interface and IFF_PROMISC isn't, emac_dev_mcast_set should only enable RX of multicasts and reset MACHASH registers. It does this, but afterwards it either sets up multicast MACs filtering or disables RX of multicasts and resets MACHASH registers again, rendering IFF_ALLMULTI flag useless. This patch fixes emac_dev_mcast_set, so that multicast MACs filtering and disabling of RX of multicasts are skipped when IFF_ALLMULTI flag is set. Tested with kernel 2.6.37. Signed-off-by:
