commit 06f41796 upstream. The '!ctx->is_active' check has a valid scenario, so there's no need for the warning. The reason is that there's a time window between the 'ctx->is_active' check in the perf_event_enable() function and the __perf_event_enable() function having: - IRQs on - ctx->lock unlocked where the task could be killed and 'ctx' deactivated by perf_event_exit_task(), ending up with the warning below. So remove the WARN_ON_ONCE() check and add comments to explain it all. This addresses the following warning reported by Vince Weaver: [ 324.983534] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 324.984420] WARNING: at kernel/events/core.c:1953 __perf_event_enable+0x187/0x190() [ 324.984420] Modules linked in: [ 324.984420] CPU: 19 PID: 2715 Comm: nmi_bug_snb Not tainted 3.10.0+ #246 [ 324.984420] Hardware name: Supermicro X8DTN/X8DTN, BIOS 4.6.3 01/08/2010 [ 324.984420] 0000000000000009 ffff88043fce3ec8 ffffffff8160ea0b ffff88043fce3f00 [ 324.984420] ffffffff81080ff0 ffff8802314fdc00 ffff880231a8f800 ffff88043fcf7860 [ 324.984420] 0000000000000286 ffff880231a8f800 ffff88043fce3f10 ffffffff8108103a [ 324.984420] Call Trace: [ 324.984420] <IRQ> [<ffffffff8160ea0b>] dump_stack+0x19/0x1b [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff81080ff0>] warn_slowpath_common+0x70/0xa0 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff8108103a>] warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff81134437>] __perf_event_enable+0x187/0x190 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff81130030>] remote_function+0x40/0x50 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff810e51de>] generic_smp_call_function_single_interrupt+0xbe/0x130 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff81066a47>] smp_call_function_single_interrupt+0x27/0x40 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff8161fd2f>] call_function_single_interrupt+0x6f/0x80 [ 324.984420] <EOI> [<ffffffff816161a1>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x41/0x70 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff8113799d>] perf_event_exit_task+0x14d/0x210 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff810acd04>] ? switch_task_namespaces+0x24/0x60 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff81086946>] do_exit+0x2b6/0xa40 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff8161615c>] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x2c/0x30 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff81087279>] do_group_exit+0x49/0xc0 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff81096854>] get_signal_to_deliver+0x254/0x620 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff81043057>] do_signal+0x57/0x5a0 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff8161a164>] ? __do_page_fault+0x2a4/0x4e0 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff8161665c>] ? retint_restore_args+0xe/0xe [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff816166cd>] ? retint_signal+0x11/0x84 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff81043605>] do_notify_resume+0x65/0x80 [ 324.984420] [<ffffffff81616702>] retint_signal+0x46/0x84 [ 324.984420] ---[ end trace 442ec2f04db3771a ]--- Reported-by: Vince Weaver <vincent.weaver@maine.edu> Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Corey Ashford <cjashfor@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1373384651-6109-2-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.comSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit 734df5ab upstream. Currently when the child context for inherited events is created, it's based on the pmu object of the first event of the parent context. This is wrong for the following scenario: - HW context having HW and SW event - HW event got removed (closed) - SW event stays in HW context as the only event and its pmu is used to clone the child context The issue starts when the cpu context object is touched based on the pmu context object (__get_cpu_context). In this case the HW context will work with SW cpu context ending up with following WARN below. Fixing this by using parent context pmu object to clone from child context.

commit 3ebacb05 upstream. The test if bitmap access is out of bound could errorneously pass if the device size is divisible by 16384 sectors and we are asking for one bitmap after the end. Check for invalid size in the superblock. Invalid size could cause integer overflows in the rest of the code.

commit c378f70a upstream. Currently, when a disconnect is requested by the user (via NBD_DISCONNECT ioctl) the return from NBD_DO_IT is undefined (it is usually one of several error codes). This means that nbd-client does not know if a manual disconnect was performed or whether a network error occurred. Because of this, nbd-client's persist mode (which tries to reconnect after error, but not after manual disconnect) does not always work correctly. This change fixes this by causing NBD_DO_IT to always return 0 if a user requests a disconnect. This means that nbd-client can correctly either persist the connection (if an error occurred) or disconnect (if the user requested it).

commit ef962df0 upstream. Inlined xattr shared free space of inode block with inlined data or data extent record, so the size of the later two should be adjusted when inlined xattr is enabled. See ocfs2_xattr_ibody_init(). But this isn't done well when reflink. For inode with inlined data, its max inlined data size is adjusted in ocfs2_duplicate_inline_data(), no problem. But for inode with data extent record, its record count isn't adjusted. Fix it, or data extent record and inlined xattr may overwrite each other, then cause data corruption or xattr failure. One panic caused by this bug in our test environment is the following: kernel BUG at fs/ocfs2/xattr.c:1435! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Pid: 10871, comm: multi_reflink_t Not tainted 2.6.39-300.17.1.el5uek #1 RIP: ocfs2_xa_offset_pointer+0x17/0x20 [ocfs2] RSP: e02b:ffff88007a587948 EFLAGS: 00010283 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000010 RCX: 00000000000051e4 RDX: ffff880057092060 RSI: 0000000000000f80 RDI: ffff88007a587a68 RBP: ffff88007a587948 R08: 00000000000062f4 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000000010 R13: ffff88007a587a68 R14: 0000000000000001 R15: ffff88007a587c68 FS: 00007fccff7f06e0(0000) GS:ffff88007fc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: e033 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 00000000015cf000 CR3: 000000007aa76000 CR4: 0000000000000660 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process multi_reflink_t Call Trace: ocfs2_xa_reuse_entry+0x60/0x280 [ocfs2] ocfs2_xa_prepare_entry+0x17e/0x2a0 [ocfs2] ocfs2_xa_set+0xcc/0x250 [ocfs2] ocfs2_xattr_ibody_set+0x98/0x230 [ocfs2] __ocfs2_xattr_set_handle+0x4f/0x700 [ocfs2] ocfs2_xattr_set+0x6c6/0x890 [ocfs2] ocfs2_xattr_user_set+0x46/0x50 [ocfs2] generic_setxattr+0x70/0x90 __vfs_setxattr_noperm+0x80/0x1a0 vfs_setxattr+0xa9/0xb0 setxattr+0xc3/0x120 sys_fsetxattr+0xa8/0xd0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Signed-off-by: Junxiao Bi <junxiao.bi@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Jie Liu <jeff.liu@oracle.com> Acked-by: Joel Becker <jlbec@evilplan.org> Cc: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com> Cc: Sunil Mushran <sunil.mushran@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit 24750082 upstream. A freebsd NFSv4.0 client was getting rare IO errors expanding a tarball. A network trace showed the server returning BAD_XDR on the final getattr of a getattr+write+getattr compound. The final getattr started on a page boundary. I believe the Linux client ignores errors on the post-write getattr, and that that's why we haven't seen this before. Reported-by: Rick Macklem <rmacklem@uoguelph.ca> Signed-off-by: J.

commit 39c04153 upstream. Once we decrement transaction->t_updates, if this is the last handle holding the transaction from closing, and once we release the t_handle_lock spinlock, it's possible for the transaction to commit and be released. In practice with normal kernels, this probably won't happen, since the commit happens in a separate kernel thread and it's unlikely this could all happen within the space of a few CPU cycles. On the other hand, with a real-time kernel, this could potentially happen, so save the tid found in transaction->t_tid before we release t_handle_lock. It would require an insane configuration, such as one where the jbd2 thread was set to a very high real-time priority, perhaps because a high priority real-time thread is trying to read or write to a file system. But some people who use real-time kernels have been known to do insane things, including controlling laser-wielding industrial robots. :-) Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit 605c912b upstream. Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'. This means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while 'ubifs_readdir()' uses it, and this is a very bad bug: not only 'ubifs_readdir()' can return garbage, but this may corrupt memory and lead to all kinds of problems like crashes an security holes. This patch fixes the problem by using the 'file->f_version' field, which '->llseek()' always unconditionally sets to zero. We set it to 1 in 'ubifs_readdir()' and whenever we detect that it became 0, we know there was a seek and it is time to clear the state saved in 'file->private_data'. I tested this patch by writing a user-space program which runds readdir and seek in parallell. I could easily crash the kernel without these patches, but could not crash it with these patches.

commit 33f1a63a upstream. Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'. First of all, this means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while 'ubifs_readdir()' uses it. But this particular patch does not fix the problem. This patch is only a preparation, and the fix will follow next. In this patch we make 'ubifs_readdir()' stop using 'file->f_pos' directly, because 'file->f_pos' can be changed by '->llseek()' at any point. This may lead 'ubifs_readdir()' to returning inconsistent data: directory entry names may correspond to incorrect file positions. So here we introduce a local variable 'pos', read 'file->f_pose' once at very the beginning, and then stick to 'pos'. The result of this is that when 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' changes 'file->f_pos' while we are in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()', the latter "wins".

commit a5faeaf9 upstream. Code in blkdev.c moves a device inode to default_backing_dev_info when the last reference to the device is put and moves the device inode back to its bdi when the first reference is acquired. This includes moving to wb.b_dirty list if the device inode is dirty. The code however doesn't setup timer to wake corresponding flusher thread and while wb.b_dirty list is non-empty __mark_inode_dirty() will not set it up either. Thus periodic writeback is effectively disabled until a sync(2) call which can lead to unexpected data loss in case of crash or power failure. Fix the problem by setting up a timer for periodic writeback in case we add the first dirty inode to wb.b_dirty list in bdev_inode_switch_bdi().

commit 14611e51 upstream. task->cgroups is a RCU pointer pointing to struct css_set. A task switches to a different css_set on cgroup migration but a css_set doesn't change once created and its pointers to cgroup_subsys_states aren't RCU protected. task_subsys_state[_check]() is the macro to acquire css given a task and subsys_id pair. It RCU-dereferences task->cgroups->subsys[] not task->cgroups, so the RCU pointer task->cgroups ends up being dereferenced without read_barrier_depends() after it. It's broken. Fix it by introducing task_css_set[_check]() which does RCU-dereference on task->cgroups. task_subsys_state[_check]() is reimplemented to directly dereference ->subsys[] of the css_set returned from task_css_set[_check](). This removes some of sparse RCU warnings in cgroup. v2: Fixed unbalanced parenthsis and there's no need to use rcu_dereference_raw() when !CONFIG_PROVE_RCU. Both spotted by Li.

commit 39c60a09 upstream. Some arrays synchronize their full non volatile cache when the sd driver sends a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command. Unfortunately, they can have Terrabytes of this and we send a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE for every barrier if an array reports it has a writeback cache. This leads to massive slowdowns on journalled filesystems. The fix is to allow userspace to turn off the writeback cache setting as a temporary measure (i.e. without doing the MODE SELECT to write it back to the device), so even though the device reported it has a writeback cache, the user, knowing that the cache is non volatile and all they care about is filesystem correctness, can turn that bit off in the kernel and avoid the performance ruinous (and safety irrelevant) SYNCHRONIZE CACHE commands. The way you do this is add a 'temporary' prefix when performing the usual cache setting operations, so echo temporary write through > /sys/class/scsi_disk/<disk>/cache_type Reported-by: Ric Wheeler <rwheeler@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <JBottomley@Parallels.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit 13d60f4b upstream. The futex_keys of process shared futexes are generated from the page offset, the mapping host and the mapping index of the futex user space address. This should result in an unique identifier for each futex. Though this is not true when futexes are located in different subpages of an hugepage. The reason is, that the mapping index for all those futexes evaluates to the index of the base page of the hugetlbfs mapping. So a futex at offset 0 of the hugepage mapping and another one at offset PAGE_SIZE of the same hugepage mapping have identical futex_keys. This happens because the futex code blindly uses page->index. Steps to reproduce the bug: 1. Map a file from hugetlbfs. Initialize pthread_mutex1 at offset 0 and pthread_mutex2 at offset PAGE_SIZE of the hugetlbfs mapping. The mutexes must be initialized as PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED because PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE mutexes are not affected by this issue as their keys solely depend on the user space address. 2. Lock mutex1 and mutex2 3. Create thread1 and in the thread function lock mutex1, which results in thread1 blocking on the locked mutex1. 4. Create thread2 and in the thread function lock mutex2, which results in thread2 blocking on the locked mutex2. 5. Unlock mutex2. Despite the fact that mutex2 got unlocked, thread2 still blocks on mutex2 because the futex_key points to mutex1. To solve this issue we need to take the normal page index of the page which contains the futex into account, if the futex is in an hugetlbfs mapping. In other words, we calculate the normal page mapping index of the subpage in the hugetlbfs mapping. Mappings which are not based on hugetlbfs are not affected and still use page->index. Thanks to Mel Gorman who provided a patch for adding proper evaluation functions to the hugetlbfs code to avoid exposing hugetlbfs specific details to the futex code.

commit 60d0ca3c upstream. If we use a large mapping, the expectation is that only unmaps from the first pte in the superpage are supported. Unmaps from offsets into the superpage should fail (ie. return zero sized unmap). In the current code, unmapping from an offset clears the size of the full mapping starting from an offset. For instance, if we map a 16k physically contiguous range at IOVA 0x0 with a large page, then attempt to unmap 4k at offset 12k, 4 ptes are cleared (12k - 28k) and the unmap returns 16k unmapped. This potentially incorrectly clears valid mappings and confuses drivers like VFIO that use the unmap size to release pinned pages. Fix by refusing to unmap from offsets into the page.
