/proc/kcore investigates the "System RAM" elements in /proc/iomem to initialize it's memory tables. Therefore we have to register them before it tries to do so. kcore uses device_initcall() so let's use arch_initcall() for the registry.

Revisiting commit d23b8ad8 ("tc: add BPF based action") with regards to eBPF support, I was thinking that it might be better to improve return semantics from a BPF program invoked through BPF_PROG_RUN(). Currently, in case filter_res is 0, we overwrite the default action opcode with TC_ACT_SHOT. A default action opcode configured through tc's m_bpf can be: TC_ACT_RECLASSIFY, TC_ACT_PIPE, TC_ACT_SHOT, TC_ACT_UNSPEC, TC_ACT_OK. In cls_bpf, we have the possibility to overwrite the default class associated with the classifier in case filter_res is _not_ 0xffffffff (-1). That allows us to fold multiple [e]BPF programs into a single one, where they would otherwise need to be defined as a separate classifier with its own classid, needlessly redoing parsing work, etc. Similarly, we could do better in act_bpf: Since above TC_ACT* opcodes are exported to UAPI anyway, we reuse them for return-code-to-tc-opcode mapping, where we would allow above possibilities. Thus, like in cls_bpf, a filter_res of 0xffffffff (-1) means that the configured _default_ action is used. Any unkown return code from the BPF program would fail in tcf_bpf() with TC_ACT_UNSPEC. Should we one day want to make use of TC_ACT_STOLEN or TC_ACT_QUEUED, which both have the same semantics, we have the option to either use that as a default action (filter_res of 0xffffffff) or non-default BPF return code. All that will allow us to transparently use tcf_bpf() for both BPF flavours.

The commit breaks the legacy platforms, ie. these not using device-tree, and setting up the interrupt resources with a flag to activate edge detection. The issue was found on the zylonite platform. The reason is that zylonite uses platform resources to pass the interrupt number and the irq flags (here IORESOURCE_IRQ_HIGHEDGE). It expects the driver to request the irq with these flags, which in turn setups the irq as high edge triggered. After the patch, this was supposed to be taken care of with : irq_resflags = irqd_get_trigger_type(irq_get_irq_data(ndev->irq)); But irq_resflags is 0 for legacy platforms, while for example in arch/arm/mach-pxa/zylonite.c, in struct resource smc91x_resources[] the irq flag is specified. This breaks zylonite because the interrupt is not setup as triggered, and hardware doesn't provide interrupts. Signed-off-by: Robert Jarzmik <robert.jarzmik@free.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.

There is a notifier that handles live patches for coming and going modules. It takes klp_mutex lock to avoid races with coming and going patches but it does not keep the lock all the time. Therefore the following races are possible: 1. The notifier is called sometime in STATE_MODULE_COMING. The module is visible by find_module() in this state all the time. It means that new patch can be registered and enabled even before the notifier is called. It might create wrong order of stacked patches, see below for an example. 2. New patch could still see the module in the GOING state even after the notifier has been called. It will try to initialize the related object structures but the module could disappear at any time. There will stay mess in the structures. It might even cause an invalid memory access. This patch solves the problem by adding a boolean variable into struct module. The value is true after the coming and before the going handler is called. New patches need to be applied when the value is true and they need to ignore the module when the value is false. Note that we need to know state of all modules on the system. The races are related to new patches. Therefore we do not know what modules will get patched. Also note that we could not simply ignore going modules. The code from the module could be called even in the GOING state until mod->exit() finishes. If we start supporting patches with semantic changes between function calls, we need to apply new patches to any still usable code. See below for an example. Finally note that the patch solves only the situation when a new patch is registered. There are no such problems when the patch is being removed. It does not matter who disable the patch first, whether the normal disable_patch() or the module notifier. There is nothing to do once the patch is disabled. Alternative solutions: ====================== + reject new patches when a patched module is coming or going; this is ugly + wait with adding new patch until the module leaves the COMING and GOING states; this might be dangerous and complicated; we would need to release kgr_lock in the middle of the patch registration to avoid a deadlock with the coming and going handlers; also we might need a waitqueue for each module which seems to be even bigger overhead than the boolean + stop modules from entering COMING and GOING states; wait until modules leave these states when they are already there; looks complicated; we would need to ignore the module that asked to stop the others to avoid a deadlock; also it is unclear what to do when two modules asked to stop others and both are in COMING state (situation when two new patches are applied) + always register/enable new patches and fix up the potential mess (registered patches order) in klp_module_init(); this is nasty and prone to regressions in the future development + add another MODULE_STATE where the kallsyms are visible but the module is not used yet; this looks too complex; the module states are checked on "many" locations Example of patch stacking breakage: =================================== The notifier could _not_ _simply_ ignore already initialized module objects. For example, let's have three patches (P1, P2, P3) for functions a() and b() where a() is from vmcore and b() is from a module M. Something like: a() b() P1 a1() b1() P2 a2() b2() P3 a3() b3(3) If you load the module M after all patches are registered and enabled. The ftrace ops for function a() and b() has listed the functions in this order: ops_a->func_stack -> list(a3,a2,a1) ops_b->func_stack -> list(b3,b2,b1) , so the pointer to b3() is the first and will be used. Then you might have the following scenario. Let's start with state when patches P1 and P2 are registered and enabled but the module M is not loaded. Then ftrace ops for b() does not exist. Then we get into the following race: CPU0 CPU1 load_module(M) complete_formation() mod->state = MODULE_STATE_COMING; mutex_unlock(&module_mutex); klp_register_patch(P3); klp_enable_patch(P3); # STATE 1 klp_module_notify(M) klp_module_notify_coming(P1); klp_module_notify_coming(P2); klp_module_notify_coming(P3); # STATE 2 The ftrace ops for a() and b() then looks: STATE1: ops_a->func_stack -> list(a3,a2,a1); ops_b->func_stack -> list(b3); STATE2: ops_a->func_stack -> list(a3,a2,a1); ops_b->func_stack -> list(b2,b1,b3); therefore, b2() is used for the module but a3() is used for vmcore because they were the last added. Example of the race with going modules: ======================================= CPU0 CPU1 delete_module() #SYSCALL try_stop_module() mod->state = MODULE_STATE_GOING; mutex_unlock(&module_mutex); klp_register_patch() klp_enable_patch() #save place to switch universe b() # from module that is going a() # from core (patched) mod->exit(); Note that the function b() can be called until we call mod->exit(). If we do not apply patch against b() because it is in MODULE_STATE_GOING, it will call patched a() with modified semantic and things might get wrong.

Going over the virtio mmio code, I noticed that it doesn't correctly access modern device config values using "natural" accessors: it uses readb to get/set them byte by byte, while the virtio 1.0 spec explicitly states: 4.2.2.2 Driver Requirements: MMIO Device Register Layout ... The driver MUST only use 32 bit wide and aligned reads and writes to access the control registers described in table 4.1. For the device-specific configuration space, the driver MUST use 8 bit wide accesses for 8 bit wide fields, 16 bit wide and aligned accesses for 16 bit wide fields and 32 bit wide and aligned accesses for 32 and 64 bit wide fields. Borrow code from virtio_pci_modern to do this correctly. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

E1x chips (57710, 57711(E)) have no support for encapsulation offload. bnx2x incorrectly advertises the support as available. Setting of those features is conditional on "!CHIP_IS_E1x(bp)", but the bp struct is not initialized yet at this point and consequently any chip passes the check. The check must use the "chip_is_e1x" local variable instead to work correctly. Signed-off-by: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Steffen Klassert says: ==================== pull request (net): ipsec 2015-03-16 1) Fix the network header offset in _decode_session6 when multiple IPv6 extension headers are present. From Hajime Tazaki. 2) Fix an interfamily tunnel crash. We set outer mode protocol too early and may dispatch to the wrong address family. Move the setting of the outer mode protocol behind the last accessing of the inner mode to fix the crash. 3) Most callers of xfrm_lookup() expect that dst_orig is released on error. But xfrm_lookup_route() may need dst_orig to handle certain error cases. So introduce a flag that tells what should be done in case of error. From Huaibin Wang. Please pull or let me know if there are problems. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The commit [ef403edb: ALSA: hda - Don't access stereo amps for mono channel widgets] fixed the handling of mono widgets in general, but it still misses an exceptional case: namely, a mono mixer widget taking a single stereo input. In this case, it has stereo volumes although it's a mono widget, and thus we have to take care of both left and right input channels, as stated in HD-audio spec ("7.1.3 Widget Interconnection Rules"). This patch covers this missing piece by adding proper checks of stereo amps in both the generic parser and the proc output codes.
