commit a0b54add upstream. Changes in commit a0b8cab3 ("mm: remove lru parameter from __pagevec_lru_add and remove parts of pagevec API") have introduced a call to add_to_page_cache_lru() which causes a leak in nfs_symlink() as now the page gets an extra refcount that is not dropped. Jan Stancek observed and reported the leak effect while running test8 from Connectathon Testsuite. After several iterations over the test case, which creates several symlinks on a NFS mountpoint, the test system was quickly getting into an out-of-memory scenario. This patch fixes the page leak by dropping that extra refcount add_to_page_cache_lru() is grabbing. Signed-off-by:

commit 96c7a2ff upstream. Recently due to a spike in connections per second memcached on 3 separate boxes triggered the OOM killer from accept. At the time the OOM killer was triggered there was 4GB out of 36GB free in zone 1. The problem was that alloc_fdtable was allocating an order 3 page (32KiB) to hold a bitmap, and there was sufficient fragmentation that the largest page available was 8KiB. I find the logic that PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER can't fail pretty dubious but I do agree that order 3 allocations are very likely to succeed. There are always pathologies where order > 0 allocations can fail when there are copious amounts of free memory available. Using the pigeon hole principle it is easy to show that it requires 1 page more than 50% of the pages being free to guarantee an order 1 (8KiB) allocation will succeed, 1 page more than 75% of the pages being free to guarantee an order 2 (16KiB) allocation will succeed and 1 page more than 87.5% of the pages being free to guarantee an order 3 allocate will succeed. A server churning memory with a lot of small requests and replies like memcached is a common case that if anything can will skew the odds against large pages being available. Therefore let's not give external applications a practical way to kill linux server applications, and specify __GFP_NORETRY to the kmalloc in alloc_fdmem. Unless I am misreading the code and by the time the code reaches should_alloc_retry in __alloc_pages_slowpath (where __GFP_NORETRY becomes signification). We have already tried everything reasonable to allocate a page and the only thing left to do is wait. So not waiting and falling back to vmalloc immediately seems like the reasonable thing to do even if there wasn't a chance of triggering the OOM killer. Signed-off-by:

commit 36613717 upstream. Backend drivers shouldn't transistion to CLOSED unless the frontend is CLOSED. If a backend does transition to CLOSED too soon then the frontend may not see the CLOSING state and will not properly shutdown. So, treat an unexpected backend CLOSED state the same as CLOSING.

He bisected the problem to commit 1667918b ("mm: numa: clear numa hinting information on mprotect") that was also included in 3.12-stable. The problem was related to how xen translates ptes because it was not accounting for the _PAGE_NUMA bit. This patch splits pte_present to add a pteval_present helper for use by xen so both bare metal and xen use the same code when checking if a PTE is present.

commit f17248ed upstream. Due to an assumption in the VT8500 pinctrl driver, the value passed from devicetree for 'wm,pull' was not explicitly translated before being passed to pinconf. Since v3.10, changes to 'enum pin_config_param', PIN_CONFIG_BIAS_PULL_(UP/DOWN) no longer map 1-to-1 with the expected values in devicetree. This patch adds a small translation between the devicetree values (0..2) and the enum pin_config_param equivalent values. Signed-off-by:

commit 6583327c upstream. Commit d61931d8, "x86: Add optimized popcnt variants" introduced compile flag -fcall-saved-rdi for lib/hweight.c. When combined with options -fprofile-arcs and -O2, this flag causes gcc to generate broken constructor code. As a result, a 64 bit x86 kernel compiled with CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL=y prints message "gcov: could not create file" and runs into sproadic BUGs during boot. The gcc people indicate that these kinds of problems are endemic when using ad hoc calling conventions. It is therefore best to treat any file compiled with ad hoc calling conventions as an isolated environment and avoid things like profiling or coverage analysis, since those subsystems assume a "normal" calling conventions. This patch avoids the bug by excluding lib/hweight.o from coverage profiling. Reported-by:

commit cca36e2e upstream. This reverts commit a242f426. That commit actually caused deadlocks, rather then fixing them. If ext_lock is set to NULL (otherwise videobuf_queue_lock doesn't do anything), then you get this deadlock: The driver's mmap function calls videobuf_mmap_mapper which calls videobuf_queue_lock on q. videobuf_mmap_mapper calls __videobuf_mmap_mapper, __videobuf_mmap_mapper calls videobuf_vm_open and videobuf_vm_open calls videobuf_queue_lock on q (introduced by above patch): deadlocked. This affects drivers using dma-contig and dma-vmalloc. Only dma-sg is not affected since it doesn't call videobuf_vm_open from __videobuf_mmap_mapper. Most drivers these days have a non-NULL ext_lock. Those that still use NULL there are all fairly obscure drivers, which is why this hasn't been seen earlier. Since everything worked perfectly fine for many years I prefer to just revert this patch rather than trying to fix it. videobuf is quite fragile and I rather not touch it too much. Work is (slowly) progressing to move everything over to vb2 or at the very least use non-NULL ext_lock in videobuf. Signed-off-by:

commit 866e8d8a upstream. mxl111sf_read_reg takes an address of a variable to write to as an argument. drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb-v2/mxl111sf-gpio.c:mxl111sf_config_pin_mux_modes passes several uninitialized stack variables to this routine, expecting them to be filled in. In the event that something unexpected happens when reading from the chip, we end up doing a pr_debug of the value passed in, revealing whatever garbage happened to be on the stack. Change the pr_debug to match what happens in the 'success' case, where we assign buf[1] to *data. Spotted with Coverity (Bugs 731910 through 731917) Signed-off-by:

commit f98b7a77 upstream. There was a large performance regression that was bisected to commit 611ae8e3 ("x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range support for x86"). This patch simply changes the default balance point between a local and global flush for IvyBridge. In the interest of allowing the tests to be reproduced, this patch was tested using mmtests 0.15 with the following configurations configs/config-global-dhp__tlbflush-performance configs/config-global-dhp__scheduler-performance configs/config-global-dhp__network-performance Results are from two machines Ivybridge 4 threads: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-3240 CPU @ 3.40GHz Ivybridge 8 threads: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz Page fault microbenchmark showed nothing interesting. Ebizzy was configured to run multiple iterations and threads. Thread counts ranged from 1 to NR_CPUS*2. For each thread count, it ran 100 iterations and each iteration lasted 10 seconds.

The patch addresses the problem. Next was a tlbflush microbenchmark written by Alex Shi at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=133727348217113 . It measures access costs while the TLB is being flushed. The expectation is that if there are always full TLB flushes that the benchmark would suffer and it benefits from range flushing There are 320 iterations of the test per thread count. The number of entries is randomly selected with a min of 1 and max of 512. To ensure a reasonably even spread of entries, the full range is broken up into 8 sections and a random number selected within that section. iteration 1, random number between 0-64 iteration 2, random number between 64-128 etc This is still a very weak methodology. When you do not know what are typical ranges, random is a reasonable choice but it can be easily argued that the opimisation was for smaller ranges and an even spread is not representative of any workload that matters. To improve this, we'd need to know the probability distribution of TLB flush range sizes for a set of workloads that are considered "common", build a synthetic trace and feed that into this benchmark. Even that is not perfect because it would not account for the time between flushes but there are limits of what can be reasonably done and still be doing something useful. If a representative synthetic trace is provided then this benchmark could be revisited and the shift values retuned.

The scheduler benchmarks were somewhat inconclusive. They showed gains and losses and makes me reconsider how stable those benchmarks really are or if something else might be interfering with the test results recently. Network benchmarks were inconclusive. Almost all results were flat except for netperf-udp tests on the 4 thread machine. These results were unstable and showed large variations between reboots. It is unknown if this is a recent problems but I've noticed before that netperf-udp results tend to vary. Based on these results, changing the default for Ivybridge seems like a logical choice.

commit 069b9186 upstream. When __kernel_clock_gettime is called with a CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE or CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE clock id, it returns incorrectly to whatever the caller has placed in x2 ("ret x2" to return from the fast path). Fix this by saving x30/LR to x2 only in code that will call __do_get_tspec, restoring x30 afterward, and using a plain "ret" to return from the routine. Also: while the resulting tv_nsec value for CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC must be computed using intermediate values that are left-shifted by cs_shift (x12, set by __do_get_tspec), the results for coarse clocks should be calculated using unshifted values (xtime_coarse_nsec is in units of actual nanoseconds). The current code shifts intermediate values by x12 unconditionally, but x12 is uninitialized when servicing a coarse clock. Fix this by setting x12 to 0 once we know we are dealing with a coarse clock id. Signed-off-by:

For the end of this block to be accessible, the old TLB entry must be invalidated. Reported-by:

commit 40507403 upstream. Whilst the text segment for our VDSO is marked as PT_LOAD in the ELF headers, it is mapped by the kernel and not actually subject to demand-paging. ld doesn't realise this, and emits a p_align field of 64k (the maximum supported page size), which conflicts with the load address picked by the kernel on 4k systems, which will be 4k aligned. This causes GDB to fail with "Failed to read a valid object file image from memory" when attempting to load the VDSO. This patch passes the -n option to ld, which prevents it from aligning PT_LOAD segments to the maximum page size. Reported-by:

commit a6f089e9 upstream. In the Armada 370/XP driver, when we receive an IRQ 0, we read the list of doorbells that caused the interrupt from register ARMADA_370_XP_IN_DRBEL_CAUSE_OFFS. This gives the list of IPIs that were generated. However, instead of acknowledging only the IPIs that were generated, we acknowledge *all* the IPIs, by writing ~IPI_DOORBELL_MASK in the ARMADA_370_XP_IN_DRBEL_CAUSE_OFFS register. This creates a race condition: if a new IPI that isn't part of the ones read into the temporary "ipimask" variable is fired before we acknowledge all IPIs, then we will simply loose it. This is causing scheduling hangs on SMP intensive workloads. It is important to mention that this ARMADA_370_XP_IN_DRBEL_CAUSE_OFFS register has the following behavior: "A CPU write of 0 clears the bits in this field. A CPU write of 1 has no effect". This is what allows us to simply write ~ipimask to acknoledge the handled IPIs. Notice that the same problem is present in the MSI implementation, but it will be fixed as a separate patch, so that this IPI fix can be pushed to older stable versions as appropriate (all the way to 3.8), while the MSI code only appeared in 3.13.

commit 17ead6c8 upstream. nfs41_wake_and_assign_slot() relies on the task->tk_msg.rpc_argp and task->tk_msg.rpc_resp always pointing to the session sequence arguments. nfs4_proc_open_confirm tries to pull a fast one by reusing the open sequence structure, thus causing corruption of the NFSv4 slot table.

commit ee97dc7d upstream. In s390 des and 3des ctr mode there is one preallocated page used to speed up the en/decryption. This page is not protected against concurrent usage and thus there is a potential of data corruption with multiple threads. The fix introduces locking/unlocking the ctr page and a slower fallback solution at concurrency situations. Signed-off-by:

commit adc3fcf1 upstream. In s390 des and des3_ede cbc mode the iv value is not protected against concurrency access and modifications from another running en/decrypt operation which is using the very same tfm struct instance. This fix copies the iv to the local stack before the crypto operation and stores the value back when done. Signed-off-by:

commit 0519e9ad upstream. The aes-ctr mode uses one preallocated page without any concurrency protection. When multiple threads run aes-ctr encryption or decryption this can lead to data corruption. The patch introduces locking for the page and a fallback solution with slower en/decryption performance in concurrency situations. Signed-off-by:

commit 2172fa70 upstream. Setting an empty security context (length=0) on a file will lead to incorrectly dereferencing the type and other fields of the security context structure, yielding a kernel BUG. As a zero-length security context is never valid, just reject all such security contexts whether coming from userspace via setxattr or coming from the filesystem upon a getxattr request by SELinux. Setting a security context value (empty or otherwise) unknown to SELinux in the first place is only possible for a root process (CAP_MAC_ADMIN), and, if running SELinux in enforcing mode, only if the corresponding SELinux mac_admin permission is also granted to the domain by policy. In Fedora policies, this is only allowed for specific domains such as livecd for setting down security contexts that are not defined in the build host policy. Reproducer: su setenforce 0 touch foo setfattr -n security.selinux foo Caveat: Relabeling or removing foo after doing the above may not be possible without booting with SELinux disabled. Any subsequent access to foo after doing the above will also trigger the BUG.

commit 77a0122e upstream. A host controller for a SD card may need a GPIO for card detect in order to wake up from runtime suspend when a card is inserted. If that GPIO is not configured, then the host controller will not wake up. Fix that for the affected devices by not enabling runtime PM unless the GPIO is successfully set up. This affects BYT sd card host controller which had runtime PM enabled from v3.11. For completeness, the MFD sd card host controller is flagged also. The original patch before rebasing (see link below) was tested on v3.11.10 and v3.12.4 although the patch applied with some offsets and fuzz. The original patch is here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-mmc&m=138676702327057Signed-off-by:

commit d5a1c7e3 upstream. 41c7f742 ("rtc: Disable the alarm in the hardware (v2)") added the functionality to disable the RTC wake alarm when shutting down the box. However, there are at least two b0rked BIOSes we know about: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812592 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805740 where, when wakeup alarm is enabled in the BIOS, the machine reboots automatically right after shutdown, regardless of what wakeup time is programmed. Bisecting the issue lead to this patch so disable its functionality with a DMI quirk only for those boxes.
