commit 6bd825f0 upstream. In order to enable the DIU video controller on the P1022DS, the FPGA needs to be switched to "indirect mode", where the localbus is disabled and the FPGA is accessed via writes to localbus chip select signals CS0 and CS1. To obtain the address of CS0 and CS1, the platform driver uses an "indirect pixis mode" device tree node. This node assumes that the localbus 'ranges' property is sorted in chip-select order. That is, reg value 0 maps to CS0, reg value 1 maps to CS1, etc. This is how the 'ranges' property is supposed to be arranged. Unfortunately, the 'ranges' property is often mis-arranged, and not just on the P1022DS. Linux normally does not care, since it does not program the localbus. But the indirect-mode code on the P1022DS does care. The "proper" fix is to have U-Boot fix the 'ranges' property, but this would be too cumbersome. The names and 'reg' properties of all the localbus devices would also need to be updated, and determining which localbus device maps to which chip select is board-specific. Instead, we determine the CS0/CS1 base addresses the same way that U-boot does -- by reading the BRx registers directly and mapping them to physical addresses. This code is simpler and more reliable, and it does not require a U-boot or device tree change. Since the indirect pixis device tree node is no longer needed, the node is deleted from the DTS.

commit 10db8d21 upstream. Function eeh_event_handler() dereferences the pointer returned by handle_eeh_events() without checking, causing a crash if NULL was returned, which is expected in some situations. This patch fixes this bug by checking for the value returned by handle_eeh_events() before dereferencing it. Signed-off-by:

commit 473b095a upstream. For SD hosts using retuning mode 1, when retuning timer expired, it will need to do retuning in sdhci_request before processing the actual request. But the retuning command is fixed: cmd19 for SD card and cmd21 for eMMC card, so we can't use the original request's command to do the tuning. And since the tuning command depends on the card type attached to the host, we will need to know the card type to use the correct tuning command. Signed-off-by:

commit 55fc05b7 upstream. At http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/11980 we have determined that the Marvell CaFe SDHCI controller reports bad card presence during resume. It reports that no card is present even when it is. This is a regression -- resume worked back around 2.6.37. Around 400ms after resuming, a "card inserted" interrupt is generated, at which point it starts reporting presence. Work around this hardware oddity by setting the SDHCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_CARD_DETECTION flag. Thanks to Chris Ball for helping with diagnosis. Signed-off-by:

commit bf6932f4 upstream. From Al Viro: BTW, speaking of struct file treatment related to sockets - there's this piece of code in iscsi: /* * The SCTP stack needs struct socket->file. */ if ((np->np_network_transport == ISCSI_SCTP_TCP) || (np->np_network_transport == ISCSI_SCTP_UDP)) { if (!new_sock->file) { new_sock->file = kzalloc( sizeof(struct file), GFP_KERNEL); For one thing, as far as I can see it'not true - sctp does *not* depend on socket->file being non-NULL; it does, in one place, check socket->file->f_flags for O_NONBLOCK, but there it treats NULL socket->file as "flag not set". Which is the case here anyway - the fake struct file created in __iscsi_target_login_thread() (and in iscsi_target_setup_login_socket(), with the same excuse) do *not* get that flag set. Moreover, it's a bloody serious violation of a bunch of asserts in VFS; all struct file instances should come from filp_cachep, via get_empty_filp() (or alloc_file(), which is a wrapper for it). FWIW, I'm very tempted to do this and be done with the entire mess: Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes this by serializing the marshal_iov operations for async reads and writes. The idea here is to ensure that cifs aggressively tries to populate a request before attempting to fulfill another one. As soon as all of the pages are kmapped for a request, then we can unlock and allow another one to proceed. There's no need to do this serialization on non-CONFIG_HIGHMEM arches however, so optimize all of this out when CONFIG_HIGHMEM isn't set. Reported-by:

commit 7c8d3a42 upstream. We can't guarantee that REQ_DISCARD on dm-mirror zeroes the data even if the underlying disks support zero on discard. So this patch sets ti->discard_zeroes_data_unsupported. For example, if the mirror is in the process of resynchronizing, it may happen that kcopyd reads a piece of data, then discard is sent on the same area and then kcopyd writes the piece of data to another leg. Consequently, the data is not zeroed. The flag was made available by commit 983c7db3 (dm crypt: always disable discard_zeroes_data). Signed-off-by:

commit 751f188d upstream. This patch fixes a crash when a discard request is sent during mirror recovery. Firstly, some background. Generally, the following sequence happens during mirror synchronization: - function do_recovery is called - do_recovery calls dm_rh_recovery_prepare - dm_rh_recovery_prepare uses a semaphore to limit the number simultaneously recovered regions (by default the semaphore value is 1, so only one region at a time is recovered) - dm_rh_recovery_prepare calls __rh_recovery_prepare, __rh_recovery_prepare asks the log driver for the next region to recover. Then, it sets the region state to DM_RH_RECOVERING. If there are no pending I/Os on this region, the region is added to quiesced_regions list. If there are pending I/Os, the region is not added to any list. It is added to the quiesced_regions list later (by dm_rh_dec function) when all I/Os finish. - when the region is on quiesced_regions list, there are no I/Os in flight on this region. The region is popped from the list in dm_rh_recovery_start function. Then, a kcopyd job is started in the recover function. - when the kcopyd job finishes, recovery_complete is called. It calls dm_rh_recovery_end. dm_rh_recovery_end adds the region to recovered_regions or failed_recovered_regions list (depending on whether the copy operation was successful or not). The above mechanism assumes that if the region is in DM_RH_RECOVERING state, no new I/Os are started on this region. When I/O is started, dm_rh_inc_pending is called, which increases reg->pending count. When I/O is finished, dm_rh_dec is called. It decreases reg->pending count. If the count is zero and the region was in DM_RH_RECOVERING state, dm_rh_dec adds it to the quiesced_regions list. Consequently, if we call dm_rh_inc_pending/dm_rh_dec while the region is in DM_RH_RECOVERING state, it could be added to quiesced_regions list multiple times or it could be added to this list when kcopyd is copying data (it is assumed that the region is not on any list while kcopyd does its jobs). This results in memory corruption and crash. There already exist bypasses for REQ_FLUSH requests: REQ_FLUSH requests do not belong to any region, so they are always added to the sync list in do_writes. dm_rh_inc_pending does not increase count for REQ_FLUSH requests. In mirror_end_io, dm_rh_dec is never called for REQ_FLUSH requests. These bypasses avoid the crash possibility described above. These bypasses were improperly implemented for REQ_DISCARD when the mirror target gained discard support in commit 5fc2ffea (dm raid1: support discard). In do_writes, REQ_DISCARD requests is always added to the sync queue and immediately dispatched (even if the region is in DM_RH_RECOVERING). However, dm_rh_inc and dm_rh_dec is called for REQ_DISCARD resusts. So it violates the rule that no I/Os are started on DM_RH_RECOVERING regions, and causes the list corruption described above. This patch changes it so that REQ_DISCARD requests follow the same path as REQ_FLUSH. This avoids the crash. Reference: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/837607Signed-off-by:

commit 650d2a06 upstream. When process_discard receives a partial discard that doesn't cover a full block, it sends this discard down to that block. Unfortunately, the block can be shared and the discard would corrupt the other snapshots sharing this block. This patch detects block sharing and ends the discard with success when sending it to the shared block. The above change means that if the device supports discard it can't be guaranteed that a discard request zeroes data. Therefore, we set ti->discard_zeroes_data_unsupported. Thin target discard support with this bug arrived in commit 104655fd (dm thin: support discards). Signed-off-by:

commit 9ff19309 upstream. In RAID_5/6 We used to not permit an IO that it's end byte is not stripe_size aligned and spans more than one stripe. .i.e the caller must check if after submission the actual transferred bytes is shorter, and would need to resubmit a new IO with the remainder. Exofs supports this, and NFS was supposed to support this as well with it's short write mechanism. But late testing has exposed a CRASH when this is used with none-RPC layout-drivers. The change at NFS is deep and risky, in it's place the fix at ORE to lift the limitation is actually clean and simple. So here it is below. The principal here is that in the case of unaligned IO on both ends, beginning and end, we will send two read requests one like old code, before the calculation of the first stripe, and also a new site, before the calculation of the last stripe. If any "boundary" is aligned or the complete IO is within a single stripe. we do a single read like before. The code is clean and simple by splitting the old _read_4_write into 3 even parts: 1._read_4_write_first_stripe 2. _read_4_write_last_stripe 3. _read_4_write_execute And calling 1+3 at the same place as before. 2+3 before last stripe, and in the case of all in a single stripe then 1+2+3 is preformed additively. Why did I not think of it before. Well I had a strike of genius because I have stared at this code for 2 years, and did not find this simple solution, til today. Not that I did not try. This solution is much better for NFS than the previous supposedly solution because the short write was dealt with out-of-band after IO_done, which would cause for a seeky IO pattern where as in here we execute in order. At both solutions we do 2 separate reads, only here we do it within a single IO request. (And actually combine two writes into a single submission) NFS/exofs code need not change since the ORE API communicates the new shorter length on return, what will happen is that this case would not occur anymore. hurray!!

commit c6727932 upstream. UBIFS has a feature called "empty space fix-up" which is a quirk to work-around limitations of dumb flasher programs. Namely, of those flashers that are unable to skip NAND pages full of 0xFFs while flashing, resulting in empty space at the end of half-filled eraseblocks to be unusable for UBIFS. This feature is relatively new (introduced in v3.0). The fix-up routine (fixup_free_space()) is executed only once at the very first mount if the superblock has the 'space_fixup' flag set (can be done with -F option of mkfs.ubifs). It basically reads all the UBIFS data and metadata and writes it back to the same LEB. The routine assumes the image is pristine and does not have anything in the journal. There was a bug in 'fixup_free_space()' where it fixed up the log incorrectly. All but one LEB of the log of a pristine file-system are empty. And one contains just a commit start node. And 'fixup_free_space()' just unmapped this LEB, which resulted in wiping the commit start node. As a result, some users were unable to mount the file-system next time with the following symptom: UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: first log node at LEB 3:0 is not CS node UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: log error detected while replaying the log at LEB 3:0 The root-cause of this bug was that 'fixup_free_space()' wrongly assumed that the beginning of empty space in the log head (c->lhead_offs) was known on mount. However, it is not the case - it was always 0. UBIFS does not store in it the master node and finds out by scanning the log on every mount. The fix is simple - just pass commit start node size instead of 0 to 'fixup_leb()'. Signed-off-by:

commit 3cc5d2a6 upstream. This patch fixes a crash seen when large reads have their exchange aborted by either timing out or being reset.

This patch changes the function ft_get_task_tag to return ~0 if it is unable to get the tag for this reason. Because the get_task_tag interface provides no means of returning an error, this seems like the best way to fix this issue at the moment. Signed-off-by:

commit 3ae629d9 upstream. We currently rely on being able to kmap all of the pages in an async read or write request. If you're on a machine that has CONFIG_HIGHMEM set then that kmap space is limited, sometimes to as low as 512 slots. With 512 slots, we can only support up to a 2M r/wsize, and that's assuming that we can get our greedy little hands on all of them. There are other users however, so it's possible we'll end up stuck with a size that large. Since we can't handle a rsize or wsize larger than that currently, cap those options at the number of kmap slots we have. We could consider capping it even lower, but we currently default to a max of 1M. Might as well allow those luddites on 32 bit arches enough rope to hang themselves. A more robust fix would be to teach the send and receive routines how to contend with an array of pages so we don't need to marshal up a kvec array at all. That's a fairly significant overhaul though, so we'll need this limit in place until that's ready. Reported-by:

commit 58e94ae1 upstream. commit 4367af55 md/raid1: clear bad-block record when write succeeds. Added a 'reschedule_retry' call possibility at the end of end_sync_write, but didn't add matching code at the end of sync_request_write. So if the writes complete very quickly, or scheduling makes it seem that way, then we can miss rescheduling the request and the resync could hang. Also commit 73d5c38a md: avoid races when stopping resync. Fix a race condition in this same code in end_sync_write but didn't make the change in sync_request_write. This patch updates sync_request_write to fix both of those. Patch is suitable for 3.1 and later kernels. Reported-by:

commit a05b7ea0 upstream. md will refuse to stop an array if any other fd (or mounted fs) is using it. When any fs is unmounted of when the last open fd is closed all pending IO will be flushed (e.g. sync_blockdev call in __blkdev_put) so there will be no pending IO to worry about when the array is stopped. However in order to send the STOP_ARRAY ioctl to stop the array one must first get and open fd on the block device. If some fd is being used to write to the block device and it is closed after mdadm open the block device, but before mdadm issues the STOP_ARRAY ioctl, then there will be no last-close on the md device so __blkdev_put will not call sync_blockdev. If this happens, then IO can still be in-flight while md tears down the array and bad things can happen (use-after-free and subsequent havoc). So in the case where do_md_stop is being called from an open file descriptor, call sync_block after taking the mutex to ensure there will be no new openers. This is needed when setting a read-write device to read-only too. Reported-by:

On timekeeping_resume() the timekeeper data is updated, but nothing calls timekeeping_update(), so now the update code in the timer interrupt sees stale values. This has been the case before those changes, but then the timer interrupt was using stale data as well so this went unnoticed for quite some time. Add the missing update call, so all the data is consistent everywhere. Reported-by:

This is a backport of 5baefd6d The update of the hrtimer base offsets on all cpus cannot be made atomically from the timekeeper.lock held and interrupt disabled region as smp function calls are not allowed there. clock_was_set(), which enforces the update on all cpus, is called either from preemptible process context in case of do_settimeofday() or from the softirq context when the offset modification happened in the timer interrupt itself due to a leap second. In both cases there is a race window for an hrtimer interrupt between dropping timekeeper lock, enabling interrupts and clock_was_set() issuing the updates. Any interrupt which arrives in that window will see the new time but operate on stale offsets. So we need to make sure that an hrtimer interrupt always sees a consistent state of time and offsets. ktime_get_update_offsets() allows us to get the current monotonic time and update the per cpu hrtimer base offsets from hrtimer_interrupt() to capture a consistent state of monotonic time and the offsets. The function replaces the existing ktime_get() calls in hrtimer_interrupt(). The overhead of the new function vs. ktime_get() is minimal as it just adds two store operations. This ensures that any changes to realtime or boottime offsets are noticed and stored into the per-cpu hrtimer base structures, prior to any hrtimer expiration and guarantees that timers are not expired early.

This is a backport of f6c06abf To finally fix the infamous leap second issue and other race windows caused by functions which change the offsets between the various time bases (CLOCK_MONOTONIC, CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME) we need a function which atomically gets the current monotonic time and updates the offsets of CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME with minimalistic overhead. The previous patch which provides ktime_t offsets allows us to make this function almost as cheap as ktime_get() which is going to be replaced in hrtimer_interrupt(). Signed-off-by:

This is a backport of 196951e9 We need to update the base offsets from this code and we need to do that under base->lock. Move the lock held region around the ktime_get() calls. The ktime_get() calls are going to be replaced with a function which gets the time and the offsets atomically. Signed-off-by:

This is a backport of 5b9fe759 We need to update the hrtimer clock offsets from the hrtimer interrupt context. To avoid conversions from timespec to ktime_t maintain a ktime_t based representation of those offsets in the timekeeper. This puts the conversion overhead into the code which updates the underlying offsets and provides fast accessible values in the hrtimer interrupt. Signed-off-by:
