commit dd67d32d upstream. A task is considered frozen enough between freezer_do_not_count() and freezer_count() and freezers use freezer_should_skip() to test this condition. This supposedly works because freezer_count() always calls try_to_freezer() after clearing %PF_FREEZER_SKIP. However, there currently is nothing which guarantees that freezer_count() sees %true freezing() after clearing %PF_FREEZER_SKIP when freezing is in progress, and vice-versa. A task can escape the freezing condition in effect by freezer_count() seeing !freezing() and freezer_should_skip() seeing %PF_FREEZER_SKIP. This patch adds smp_mb()'s to freezer_count() and freezer_should_skip() such that either %true freezing() is visible to freezer_count() or !PF_FREEZER_SKIP is visible to freezer_should_skip().

commit 5edee61e upstream. cgroup core has a bug which violates a basic rule about event notifications - when a new entity needs to be added, you add that to the notification list first and then make the new entity conform to the current state. If done in the reverse order, an event happening inbetween will be lost. cgroup_subsys->fork() is invoked way before the new task is added to the css_set. Currently, cgroup_freezer is the only user of ->fork() and uses it to make new tasks conform to the current state of the freezer. If FROZEN state is requested while fork is in progress between cgroup_fork_callbacks() and cgroup_post_fork(), the child could escape freezing - the cgroup isn't frozen when ->fork() is called and the freezer couldn't see the new task on the css_set. This patch moves cgroup_subsys->fork() invocation to cgroup_post_fork() after the new task is added to the css_set. cgroup_fork_callbacks() is removed. Because now a task may be migrated during cgroup_subsys->fork(), freezer_fork() is updated so that it adheres to the usual RCU locking and the rather pointless comment on why locking can be different there is removed (if it doesn't make anything simpler, why even bother?).

commit 87cac8f8 upstream. Newer kernels (linux-next with the transparent huge page patches) use rrbm if the feature is announced via feature bit 66. RRBM will cause intercepts, so KVM does not handle it right now, causing an illegal instruction in the guest. The easy solution is to disable the feature bit for the guest. This fixes bugs like: Kernel BUG at 0000000000124c2a [verbose debug info unavailable] illegal operation: 0001 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: virtio_balloon virtio_net ipv6 autofs4 CPU: 0 Not tainted 3.5.4 #1 Process fmempig (pid: 659, task: 000000007b712fd0, ksp: 000000007bed3670) Krnl PSW : 0704d00180000000 0000000000124c2a (pmdp_clear_flush_young+0x5e/0x80) R:0 T:1 IO:1 EX:1 Key:0 M:1 W:0 P:0 AS:3 CC:1 PM:0 EA:3 00000000003cc000 0000000000000004 0000000000000000 0000000079800000 0000000000040000 0000000000000000 000000007bed3918 000000007cf40000 0000000000000001 000003fff7f00000 000003d281a94000 000000007bed383c 000000007bed3918 00000000005ecbf8 00000000002314a6 000000007bed36e0 Krnl Code:>0000000000124c2a: b9810025 ogr %r2,%r5 0000000000124c2e: 41343000 la %r3,0(%r4,%r3) 0000000000124c32: a716fffa brct %r1,124c26 0000000000124c36: b9010022 lngr %r2,%r2 0000000000124c3a: e3d0f0800004 lg %r13,128(%r15) 0000000000124c40: eb22003f000c srlg %r2,%r2,63 [ 2150.713198] Call Trace: [ 2150.713223] ([<00000000002312c4>] page_referenced_one+0x6c/0x27c) [ 2150.713749] [<0000000000233812>] page_referenced+0x32a/0x410 [...] CC: Alex Graf <agraf@suse.de> Signed-off-by:

commit 18a2f371 upstream. This fixes a regression in 3.7-rc, which has since gone into stable. Commit 00442ad0 ("mempolicy: fix a memory corruption by refcount imbalance in alloc_pages_vma()") changed get_vma_policy() to raise the refcount on a shmem shared mempolicy; whereas shmem_alloc_page() went on expecting alloc_page_vma() to drop the refcount it had acquired. This deserves a rework: but for now fix the leak in shmem_alloc_page(). Hugh: shmem_swapin() did not need a fix, but surely it's clearer to use the same refcounting there as in shmem_alloc_page(), delete its onstack mempolicy, and the strange mpol_cond_copy() and __mpol_cond_copy() - those were invented to let swapin_readahead() make an unknown number of calls to alloc_pages_vma() with one mempolicy; but since 00442ad0, alloc_pages_vma() has kept refcount in balance, so now no problem.

commit 39141ddf upstream. After commit 846a1368 ("ARM: vfp: fix saving d16-d31 vfp registers on v6+ kernels"), the OMAP 2430SDP board started crashing during boot with omap2plus_defconfig: [ 3.875122] mmcblk0: mmc0:e624 SD04G 3.69 GiB [ 3.915954] mmcblk0: p1 [ 4.086639] Internal error: Oops - undefined instruction: 0 [#1] SMP ARM [ 4.093719] Modules linked in: [ 4.096954] CPU: 0 Not tainted (3.6.0-02232-g759e00b8 #570) [ 4.103149] PC is at vfp_reload_hw+0x1c/0x44 [ 4.107666] LR is at __und_usr_fault_32+0x0/0x8 It turns out that the context save/restore fix unmasked a latent bug in commit 5aaf2544 ("ARM: 6203/1: Make VFPv3 usable on ARMv6"). When CONFIG_VFPv3 is set, but the kernel is booted on a pre-VFPv3 core, the code attempts to save and restore the d16-d31 VFP registers. These are only present on non-D16 VFPv3+, so this results in an undefined instruction exception. The code didn't crash before commit 846a1368 because the save and restore code was only touching d0-d15, present on all VFP. Fix by implementing a request from Russell King to add a new HWCAP flag that affirmatively indicates the presence of the d16-d31 registers: http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=135013547905283&w=2 and some feedback from Måns to clarify the name of the HWCAP flag.

commit fc4b514f upstream. 8852aac2 ("workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue timer on 0 delay") unexpectedly uncovered a very nasty abuse of delayed_work in megaraid - it allocated work_struct, casted it to delayed_work and then pass that into queue_delayed_work(). Previously, this was okay because 0 @delay short-circuited to queue_work() before doing anything with delayed_work. 8852aac2 moved 0 @delay test into __queue_delayed_work() after sanity check on delayed_work making megaraid trigger BUG_ON(). Although megaraid is already fixed by c1d390d8 ("megaraid: fix BUG_ON() from incorrect use of delayed work"), this patch converts BUG_ON()s in __queue_delayed_work() to WARN_ON_ONCE()s so that such abusers, if there are more, trigger warning but don't crash the machine.

commit 9292f37e upstream. This allows to avoid talking to a non-responding bus repeatedly until we finally timeout after 15 attempts. We can do this by catching the -ENXIO error, provided by i2c_algo_bit:bit_doAddress call. Within the bit_doAddress we already try 3 times to get the edid data, so if the routine tells us that bus is not responding, it is mostly pointless to keep re-trying those attempts over and over again until we reach final number of retries. This change should fix https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41059 and improve overall edid detection timing by 10-30% in most cases, and by a much larger margin in case of phantom outputs (up to 30x in one worst case). Timing results for i915-powered machines for 'time xrandr' command: Machine 1: from 0.840s to 0.290s Machine 2: from 0.315s to 0.280s Machine 3: from +/- 4s to 0.184s Timing results for HD5770 with 'time xrandr' command: Machine 4: from 3.210s to 1.060s Reviewed-by:

So guest's X86_FEATURE_XSAVE should be masked out on hosts without X86_FEATURE_XSAVE, making kvm_set_cr4 with X86_CR4_OSXSAVE fail. Userspaces that allow specifying guest cpuid with X86_FEATURE_XSAVE even on hosts that do not support it, might be susceptible to this attack from inside the guest as well. Allow setting X86_CR4_OSXSAVE bit only if host has XSAVE support. Signed-off-by:

This patch is only for pre-v3.3 stable trees which backported b40a7959 "freezer: exec should clear PF_NOFREEZE along with PF_KTHREAD". v3.3+ doesn't need this fix. b40a7959 is the trivial bugfix, but unfortunately I forgot that until 34b087e4 "freezer: kill unused set_freezable_with_signal()" there were another only-for-kernel-threads flag, PF_FREEZER_NOSIG, which should be cleared as well. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/v86d/+bug/1080530 The freezer fails because it expects that a PF_FREEZER_NOSIG task doesn't need a signal. Before b40a7959 it wrongly succeeds leaving the PF_NOFREEZE | PF_FREEZER_NOSIG task unfrozen. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit 783657a7 upstream. When we try to soft-offline a thp tail page, put_page() is called on the tail page unthinkingly and VM_BUG_ON is triggered in put_compound_page(). This patch splits thp before going into the main body of soft-offlining. Signed-off-by:

commit 60cefed4 upstream. Kswapd does not in all places have the same criteria for a balanced zone. Zones are only being reclaimed when their high watermark is breached, but compaction checks loop over the zonelist again when the zone does not meet the low watermark plus two times the size of the allocation. This gets kswapd stuck in an endless loop over a small zone, like the DMA zone, where the high watermark is smaller than the compaction requirement. Add a function, zone_balanced(), that checks the watermark, and, for higher order allocations, if compaction has enough free memory. Then use it uniformly to check for balanced zones. This makes sure that when the compaction watermark is not met, at least reclaim happens and progress is made - or the zone is declared unreclaimable at some point and skipped entirely. Signed-off-by:
