[ Upstream commit 6a146f3a ] Since the introduction of ULD (Upper-Layer Drivers), the MSI-X deallocating path changed in cxgb4: the driver frees the interrupts of ULD when unregistering it or on shutdown PCI handler. Problem is that if a MSI-X is not freed before deallocated in the PCI layer, it will trigger a BUG() due to still "alive" interrupt being tentatively quiesced. The below trace was observed when doing a simple unbind of Chelsio's adapter PCI function, like: "echo 001e:80:00.4 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/cxgb4/unbind" Trace: kernel BUG at drivers/pci/msi.c:352!

This patch fixes the issue by refactoring the shutdown path of ULD on cxgb4 driver, by properly freeing and disabling interrupts on PCI remove handler too.

[ Upstream commit d968f0f2 ] Latest change in open-lldp code uses bytes 6-11 of perm_addr buffer as the Ethernet source address for the host TLV packet. Since our driver does not fill these bytes, they stay at zero and the open-lldp code ends up sending the TLV packet with zero source address and the switch drops this packet. The fix is to initialize these bytes to 0xff. The open-lldp code considers 0xff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff as the invalid address and falls back to use the host's mac address as the Ethernet source address.

[ Upstream commit 0933a578 ] There are two problems with calling sock_create_kern() from rds_tcp_accept_one() 1. it sets up a new_sock->sk that is wasteful, because this ->sk is going to get replaced by inet_accept() in the subsequent ->accept() 2. The new_sock->sk is a leaked reference in sock_graft() which expects to find a null parent->sk Avoid these problems by calling sock_create_lite().

[ Upstream commit f630c38e ] When destroying a VRF device we cleanup the slaves in its ndo_uninit() function, but that causes packets to be switched (skb->dev == vrf being destroyed) even though we're pass the point where the VRF should be receiving any packets while it is being dismantled. This causes a BUG_ON to trigger if we have raw sockets (trace below). The reason is that the inetdev of the VRF has been destroyed but we're still sending packets up the stack with it, so let's free the slaves in the dellink callback as David Ahern suggested. Note that this fix doesn't prevent packets from going up when the VRF device is admin down. [ 35.631371] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 35.631603] kernel BUG at net/ipv4/fib_frontend.c:285!

[ Upstream commit ec8add2a ] Currently, when the link for $DEV is down, this command succeeds but the address is removed immediately by DAD (1): ip addr add 1111::12/64 dev $DEV valid_lft 3600 preferred_lft 1800 In the same situation, this will succeed and not remove the address (2): ip addr add 1111::12/64 dev $DEV ip addr change 1111::12/64 dev $DEV valid_lft 3600 preferred_lft 1800 The comment in addrconf_dad_begin() when !IF_READY makes it look like this is the intended behavior, but doesn't explain why: * If the device is not ready: * - keep it tentative if it is a permanent address. * - otherwise, kill it. We clearly cannot prevent userspace from doing (2), but we can make (1) work consistently with (2). addrconf_dad_stop() is only called in two cases: if DAD failed, or to skip DAD when the link is down. In that second case, the fix is to avoid deleting the address, like we already do for permanent addresses. Fixes: 3c21edbd ("[IPV6]: Defer IPv6 device initialization until the link becomes ready.")

commit 99c13b8c upstream. The pat_enabled() logic is broken on CPUs which do not support PAT and where the initialization code fails to call pat_init(). Due to that the enabled flag stays true and pat_enabled() returns true wrongfully. As a consequence the mappings, e.g. for Xorg, are set up with the wrong caching mode and the required MTRR setups are omitted. To cure this the following changes are required: 1) Make pat_enabled() return true only if PAT initialization was invoked and successful. 2) Invoke init_cache_modes() unconditionally in setup_arch() and remove the extra callsites in pat_disable() and the pat disabled code path in pat_init(). Also rename __pat_enabled to pat_disabled to reflect the real purpose of this variable.

commit 42cfcafb upstream. Changes in the SW cts (ciphertext stealing) code in commit 0605c41c ("crypto: cts - Convert to skcipher") revealed a problem in the CAAM driver: when cts(cbc(aes)) is executed and cts runs in SW, cbc(aes) is offloaded in CAAM; cts encrypts the last block in atomic context and CAAM incorrectly decides to use GFP_KERNEL for memory allocation. Fix this by allowing GFP_KERNEL (sleeping) only when MAY_SLEEP flag is set, i.e. remove MAY_BACKLOG flag. We split the fix in two parts - first is sent to -stable, while the second is not (since there is no known failure case).

commit a9332e9a upstream. There is a clean-up bug in the core comedi module initialization functions, `comedi_init()`. If the `comedi_num_legacy_minors` module parameter is non-zero (and valid), it creates that many "legacy" devices and registers them in SysFS. A failure causes the function to clean up and return an error. Unfortunately, it fails to destroy the "comedi" class that was created earlier. Fix it by adding a call to `class_destroy(comedi_class)` at the appropriate place in the clean-up sequence.

commit a0c4acd2 upstream. If a writer could been woken up, the above branch if (sem->count == 0) break; would have moved us to taking the sem. So, it's not the time to wake a writer now, and only readers are allowed now. Thus, 0 must be passed to __rwsem_do_wake(). Next, __rwsem_do_wake() wakes readers unconditionally. But we mustn't do that if the sem is owned by writer in the moment. Otherwise, writer and reader own the sem the same time, which leads to memory corruption in callers. rwsem-xadd.c does not need that, as: 1) the similar check is made lockless there, 2) in __rwsem_mark_wake::try_reader_grant we test, that sem is not owned by writer.

Have a nice day... > BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) > IP: _raw_spin_lock+0xc/0x30 > PGD 0 Fix this by taking a reference to the super block in proc_sys_prune_dcache. The superblock reference is the core of the fix however the sysctl_inodes list is converted to a hlist so that hlist_del_init_rcu may be used. This allows proc_sys_prune_dache to remove inodes the sysctl_inodes list, while not causing problems for proc_sys_evict_inode when if it later choses to remove the inode from the sysctl_inodes list. Removing inodes from the sysctl_inodes list allows proc_sys_prune_dcache to have a progress guarantee, while still being able to drop all locks. The fact that head->unregistering is set in start_unregistering ensures that no more inodes will be added to the the sysctl_inodes list. Previously the code did a dance where it delayed calling iput until the next entry in the list was being considered to ensure the inode remained on the sysctl_inodes list until the next entry was walked to. The structure of the loop in this patch does not need that so is much easier to understand and maintain.

commit 4dec2f11 upstream. 18a42088 introduced a change to reduce the RX DMA latency on the first reception when the serial port was opened for reading. However it was claiming a hardirq unsafe lock after a hardirq safe lock which is not allowed and causes lockdep to complain verbosely. This patch changes the code to always start RX DMA earlier, instead of relying on the flags used to open the serial port removing the code that was looking for the serial file flags.

commit f991af3d upstream. The retry logic for netlink_attachskb() inside sys_mq_notify() is nasty and vulnerable: 1) The sock refcnt is already released when retry is needed 2) The fd is controllable by user-space because we already release the file refcnt so we when retry but the fd has been just closed by user-space during this small window, we end up calling netlink_detachskb() on the error path which releases the sock again, later when the user-space closes this socket a use-after-free could be triggered. Setting 'sock' to NULL here should be sufficient to fix it.

commit 815abf5a upstream. The effective_load() function was only used by the NUMA balancing code, and not by the regular load balancing code. Now that the NUMA balancing code no longer uses it either, get rid of it.

commit 3fed382b upstream. Since select_idle_sibling() can place a task anywhere on a socket, comparing loads between individual CPU cores makes no real sense for deciding whether to do an affine wakeup across sockets, either. Instead, compare the load between the sockets in a similar way the load balancer and the numa balancing code do.

commit 7d894e6e upstream. Then 'this_cpu' and 'prev_cpu' are in the same socket, select_idle_sibling() will do its thing regardless of the return value of wake_affine(). Just return true and don't look at all the other things.

commit 739294fb upstream. Several tests in the NAS benchmark seem to run a lot slower with NUMA balancing enabled, than with NUMA balancing disabled. The slower run time corresponds with increased idle time. Overriding the final test of migrate_degrades_locality (but still doing the other NUMA tests first) seems to improve performance of those benchmarks.

commit 8655d549 upstream. A customer has reported a soft-lockup when running an intensive memory stress test, where the trace on multiple CPU's looks like this: RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810c53fe>] [<ffffffff810c53fe>] native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x10e/0x190 ... Call Trace: [<ffffffff81182d07>] queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x7/0xa [<ffffffff811bc331>] change_protection_range+0x3b1/0x930 [<ffffffff811d4be8>] change_prot_numa+0x18/0x30 [<ffffffff810adefe>] task_numa_work+0x1fe/0x310 [<ffffffff81098322>] task_work_run+0x72/0x90 Further investigation showed that the lock contention here is pmd_lock(). The task_numa_work() function makes sure that only one thread is let to perform the work in a single scan period (via cmpxchg), but if there's a thread with mmap_sem locked for writing for several periods, multiple threads in task_numa_work() can build up a convoy waiting for mmap_sem for read and then all get unblocked at once. This patch changes the down_read() to the trylock version, which prevents the build up. For a workload experiencing mmap_sem contention, it's probably better to postpone the NUMA balancing work anyway. This seems to have fixed the soft lockups involving pmd_lock(), which is in line with the convoy theory.

commit 1ad3aaf3 upstream. Hackbench recently suffered a bunch of pain, first by commit: 4c77b18c ("sched/fair: Make select_idle_cpu() more aggressive") and then by commit: c743f0a5 ("sched/fair, cpumask: Export for_each_cpu_wrap()") which fixed a bug in the initial for_each_cpu_wrap() implementation that made select_idle_cpu() even more expensive. The bug was that it would skip over CPUs when bits were consequtive in the bitmask. This however gave me an idea to fix select_idle_cpu(); where the old scheme was a cliff-edge throttle on idle scanning, this introduces a more gradual approach. Instead of stopping to scan entirely, we limit how many CPUs we scan. Initial benchmarks show that it mostly recovers hackbench while not hurting anything else, except Mason's schbench, but not as bad as the old thing. It also appears to recover the tbench high-end, which also suffered like hackbench.

commit 236222d3 upstream. According to the Intel datasheet, the REP MOVSB instruction exposes a pretty heavy setup cost (50 ticks), which hurts short string copy operations. This change tries to avoid this cost by calling the explicit loop available in the unrolled code for strings shorter than 64 bytes. The 64 bytes cutoff value is arbitrary from the code logic point of view - it has been selected based on measurements, as the largest value that still ensures a measurable gain. Micro benchmarks of the __copy_from_user() function with lengths in the [0-63] range show this performance gain (shorter the string, larger the gain): - in the [55%-4%] range on Intel Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 v4 - in the [72%-9%] range on Intel Core i7-4810MQ Other tested CPUs - namely Intel Atom S1260 and AMD Opteron 8216 - show no difference, because they do not expose the ERMS feature bit.
