A timer is started for each request put on the device's queue (see blk_start_request->blk_add_timer). If the request does not complete before the timer expires, the timer handler (blk_rq_timed_out_timer) will mark the request complete atomically: static inline int blk_mark_rq_complete(struct request *rq) { return test_and_set_bit(REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE, &rq->atomic_flags); } and then call blk_rq_timed_out. The latter function will call scsi_times_out, which will return one of BLK_EH_HANDLED, BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER or BLK_EH_NOT_HANDLED. If BLK_EH_RESET_TIMER is returned, blk_clear_rq_complete is called, and blk_add_timer is again called to simply wait longer for the request to complete. Now, if the request happens to complete while this is going on, what happens? Given that we know the completion handler will bail if it finds the REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE bit set, we need to focus on the completion handler running after that bit is cleared. So, from the above paragraph, after the call to blk_clear_rq_complete. If the completion sets REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE before the BUG_ON in blk_add_timer, we go boom there (I haven't seen this in the cores). Next, if we get the completion before the call to list_add_tail, then the timer will eventually fire for an old req, which may either be freed or reallocated (there is evidence that this might be the case). Finally, if the completion comes in *after* the addition to the timeout list, I think it's harmless. The request will be removed from the timeout list, req_atom_complete will be set, and all will be well. This will only actually explain the coredumps *IF* the request structure was freed, reallocated *and* queued before the error handler thread had a chance to process it. That is possible, but it may make sense to keep digging for another race. I think that if this is what was happening, we would see other instances of this problem showing up as null pointer or garbage pointer dereferences, for example when the request structure was not re-used. It looks like we actually do run into that situation in other reports. This patch moves the BUG_ON(test_bit(REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE, &req->atomic_flags)); from blk_add_timer to the only caller that could trip over it (blk_start_request). It then inverts the calls to blk_clear_rq_complete and blk_add_timer in blk_rq_timed_out to address the race. I've boot tested this patch, but nothing more.

Currently each task sends BLK_TN_PROCESS event to the first traced device it interacts with after a new trace is started. When there are several traced devices and the task accesses more devices, this logic can result in BLK_TN_PROCESS being sent several times to some devices while it is never sent to other devices. Thus blkparse doesn't display command name when parsing some blktrace files. Fix the problem by sending BLK_TN_PROCESS event to all traced devices when a task interacts with any of them.

Negative message lengths make no sense -- so don't do negative queue lenghts or identifier counts. Prevent them from getting negative. Also change the underlying data types to be unsigned to avoid hairy surprises with sign extensions in cases where those variables get evaluated in unsigned expressions with bigger data types, e.g size_t. In case a user still wants to have "unlimited" sizes she could just use INT_MAX instead.

A vmalloc fault needs to sync up PGD/PTE entry from init_mm to current task's "active_mm". ARC vmalloc fault handler however was using mm. A vmalloc fault for non user task context (actually pre-userland, from init thread's open for /dev/console) caused the handler to deref NULL mm (for mm->pgd) The reasons it worked so far is amazing: 1. By default (!SMP), vmalloc fault handler uses a cached value of PGD. In SMP that MMU register is repurposed hence need for mm pointer deref. 2. In pre-3.12 SMP kernel, the problem triggering vmalloc didn't exist in pre-userland code path - it was introduced with commit 20bafb3d "n_tty: Move buffers into n_tty_data" Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Cc: Gilad Ben-Yossef <gilad@benyossef.com> Cc: Noam Camus <noamc@ezchip.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org #3.10 and 3.11 Cc: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This patch uses CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET to filter symbols which are not in kernel address space because these symbols are generally for generating code purpose and can't be run at kernel mode, so we needn't keep them in /proc/kallsyms. For example, on ARM there are some symbols which may be linked in relocatable code section, then perf can't parse symbols any more from /proc/kallsyms, this patch fixes the problem (introduced b9b32bf7) Cc: Russell King <linux@arm.linux.org.uk> Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Cc: Michal Marek <mmarek@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org

When a memcg is deleted mem_cgroup_reparent_charges() moves charged memory to the parent memcg. As of v3.11-9444-g3ea67d06 "memcg: add per cgroup writeback pages accounting" there's bad pointer read. The goal was to check for counter underflow. The counter is a per cpu counter and there are two problems with the code: (1) per cpu access function isn't used, instead a naked pointer is used which easily causes oops. (2) the check doesn't sum all cpus Test: $ cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory $ mkdir x $ echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches $ (echo $BASHPID >> x/tasks && exec cat) & [1] 7154 $ grep ^mapped x/memory.stat mapped_file 53248 $ echo 7154 > tasks $ rmdir x <OOPS> The fix is to remove the check. It's currently dangerous and isn't worth fixing it to use something expensive, such as percpu_counter_sum(), for each reparented page. __this_cpu_read() isn't enough to fix this because there's no guarantees of the current cpus count. The only guarantees is that the sum of all per-cpu counter is >= nr_pages.

Johan has been conned^Wgracious in accepting the maintainership of the USB serial drivers, especially as he's been doing all of the real work for the past few years. At the same time, remove a bunch of old entries for USB serial drivers that don't make sense anymore, given that the developers are no longer around, and individual driver maintainerships for tiny things like this is pretty pointless.

This reverts commit a77a8c23. Revert all of the pl2303 changes that went into 3.12-rc1 and -rc2 as they cause regressions on some versions of the chip. This will all be revisited for later kernel versions when we can figure out how to handle this in a way that does not break working devices.

Commit b1adaf65 ("[SCSI] block: add sg buffer copy helper functions") introduces two sg buffer copy helpers, and calls flush_kernel_dcache_page() on pages in SG list after these pages are written to. Unfortunately, the commit may introduce a potential bug: - Before sending some SCSI commands, kmalloc() buffer may be passed to block layper, so flush_kernel_dcache_page() can see a slab page finally - According to cachetlb.txt, flush_kernel_dcache_page() is only called on "a user page", which surely can't be a slab page. - ARCH's implementation of flush_kernel_dcache_page() may use page mapping information to do optimization so page_mapping() will see the slab page, then VM_BUG_ON() is triggered. Aaro Koskinen reported the bug on ARM/kirkwood when DEBUG_VM is enabled, and this patch fixes the bug by adding test of '!PageSlab(miter->page)' before calling flush_kernel_dcache_page().

When memcg code needs to know whether any given memcg has children, it uses the cgroup child iteration primitives and returns true/false depending on whether the iteration loop is executed at least once or not. Because a cgroup's list of children is RCU protected, these primitives require the RCU read-lock to be held, which is not the case for all memcg callers. This results in the following splat when e.g. enabling hierarchy mode: WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 1 at kernel/cgroup.c:3043 css_next_child+0xa3/0x160() CPU: 3 PID: 1 Comm: systemd Not tainted 3.12.0-rc5-00117-g83f11a9c-dirty #18 Hardware name: LENOVO 3680B56/3680B56, BIOS 6QET69WW (1.39 ) 04/26/2012 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x54/0x74 warn_slowpath_common+0x78/0xa0 warn_slowpath_null+0x1a/0x20 css_next_child+0xa3/0x160 mem_cgroup_hierarchy_write+0x5b/0xa0 cgroup_file_write+0x108/0x2a0 vfs_write+0xbd/0x1e0 SyS_write+0x4c/0xa0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b In the memcg case, we only care about children when we are attempting to modify inheritable attributes interactively. Racing with deletion could mean a spurious -EBUSY, no problem. Racing with addition is handled just fine as well through the memcg_create_mutex: if the child group is not on the list after the mutex is acquired, it won't be initialized from the parent's attributes until after the unlock.

Commit 84235de3 ("fs: buffer: move allocation failure loop into the allocator") allowed __GFP_NOFAIL allocations to bypass the limit if they fail to reclaim enough memory for the charge. But because the main test case was on a 3.2-based system, the patch missed the fact that on newer kernels the charge function needs to return root_mem_cgroup when bypassing the limit, and not NULL. This will corrupt whatever memory is at NULL + percpu pointer offset. Fix this quickly before problems are reported.

We do not want to dirty the dentry->d_flags cacheline in dput() just to set the DCACHE_REFERENCED flag when it is already set in the common case anyway. This way the first cacheline of the dentry (which contains the RCU lookup information etc) can stay shared among multiple CPU's. This finishes off some of the details of all the scalability patches merged during the merge window. Also don't mark dentry_kill() for inlining, since it's the uncommon path and inlining it just makes the common path slower due to extra function entry/exit overhead.
