      net/ipv6/exthdrs.c: Strict PadN option checking · c1412fce
      Eldad Zack authored
      Added strict checking of PadN, as PadN can be used to increase header
      size and thus push the protocol header into the 2nd fragment.
      
      PadN is used to align the options within the Hop-by-Hop or
      Destination Options header to 64-bit boundaries. The maximum valid
      size is thus 7 bytes.
      RFC 4942 recommends to actively check the "payload" itself and
      ensure that it contains only zeroes.
      
      See also RFC 4942 section 2.1.9.5.

      Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
      
       1) Fix bluetooth userland regression reported by Keith Packard, from
          Gustavo Padovan.
      
       2) Revert ath9k PS idle change, from Sujith Manoharan.
      
       3) Correct default TCP memory limits (again), from Eric Dumazet.
      
       4) Fix tcp_rcv_rtt_update() accidental use of unscaled RTT, from Neal
          Cardwell.
      
       5) We made a facility for layers like wireless to say how much tailroom
          they need in the SKB for link layer stuff such as wireless
          encryption etc., but TCP works hard to fill every SKB out to the end
          defeating this specification.
      
          This leads to every TCP packet getting reallocated by the wireless
          code in order to have the right amount of tailroom available.
      
          Fix TCP to only fill SKBs out to the real amount of data area it
          asked for during the allocation, this way it won't eat into the
          slack added for the device's tailroom needs.
      
          Reported by Marc Merlin and fixed by Eric Dumazet.
      
       6) Leaks, endian bugs, and new device IDs in bluetooth from Santosh
          Nayak, João Paulo Rechi Vita, Cho, Yu-Chen, Andrei Emeltchenko,
          AceLan Kao, and Andrei Emeltchenko.
      
       7) OOPS on tty_close fix in bluetooth's hci_ldisc from Johan Hovold.
      
       8) netfilter erroneously scales TCP window twice, fix from Changli Gao.
      
       9) Memleak fix in wext-core from Julia Lawall.
      
      10) Consistently handle invalid TCP packets in ipv4 vs.  ipv6 conntrack,
          from Jozsef Kadlecsik.
      
      11) Validate IP header length properly in netfilter conntrack's
          ipv4_get_l4proto().

      panic: fix stack dump print on direct call to panic() · 026ee1f6
      Jason Wessel authored
      Commit 6e6f0a1f ("panic: don't print redundant backtraces on oops")
      causes a regression where no stack trace will be printed at all for the
      case where kernel code calls panic() directly while not processing an
      oops, and of course there are 100's of instances of this type of call.
      
      The original commit executed the check (!oops_in_progress), but this will
      always be false because just before the dump_stack() there is a call to
      bust_spinlocks(1), which does the following:
      
        void __attribute__((weak)) bust_spinlocks(int yes)
        {
      	if (yes) {
      		++oops_in_progress;
      
      The proper way to resolve the problem that original commit tried to
      solve is to avoid printing a stack dump from panic() when the either of
      the following conditions is true:
      
        1) TAINT_DIE has been set (this is done by oops_end())
           This indicates and oops has already been printed.
        2) oops_in_progress > 1
           This guards against the rare case where panic() is invoked
           a second time, or in between oops_begin() and oops_end()

      Ying Han authored
      This reverts commit c38446cc.
      
      Before the commit, the code makes senses to me but not after the commit.
      The "nr_reclaimed" is the number of pages reclaimed by scanning through
      the memcg's lru lists.  The "nr_to_reclaim" is the target value for the
      whole function.  For example, we like to early break the reclaim if
      reclaimed 32 pages under direct reclaim (not DEF_PRIORITY).
      
      After the reverted commit, the target "nr_to_reclaim" is decremented each
      time by "nr_reclaimed" but we still use it to compare the "nr_reclaimed".
      It just doesn't make sense to me...

      hugetlb: fix race condition in hugetlb_fault() · 66aebce7
      Chris Metcalf authored
      The race is as follows:
      
      Suppose a multi-threaded task forks a new process (on cpu A), thus
      bumping up the ref count on all the pages.  While the fork is occurring
      (and thus we have marked all the PTEs as read-only), another thread in
      the original process (on cpu B) tries to write to a huge page, taking an
      access violation from the write-protect and calling hugetlb_cow().  Now,
      suppose the fork() fails.  It will undo the COW and decrement the ref
      count on the pages, so the ref count on the huge page drops back to 1.
      Meanwhile hugetlb_cow() also decrements the ref count by one on the
      original page, since the original address space doesn't need it any
      more, having copied a new page to replace the original page.  This
      leaves the ref count at zero, and when we call unlock_page(), we panic.
      
      	fork on CPU A				fault on CPU B
      	=============				==============
      	...
      	down_write(&parent->mmap_sem);
      	down_write_nested(&child->mmap_sem);
      	...
      	while duplicating vmas
      		if error
      			break;
      	...
      	up_write(&child->mmap_sem);
      	up_write(&parent->mmap_sem);		...
      						down_read(&parent->mmap_sem);
      						...
      						lock_page(page);
      						handle COW
      						page_mapcount(old_page) == 2
      						alloc and prepare new_page
      	...
      	handle error
      	page_remove_rmap(page);
      	put_page(page);
      	...
      						fold new_page into pte
      						page_remove_rmap(page);
      						put_page(page);
      						...
      				oops ==>	unlock_page(page);
      						up_read(&parent->mmap_sem);
      
      The solution is to take an extra reference to the page while we are
      holding the lock on it.

      drivers/rtc/rtc-twl.c: use static register while reading time · f3ec434c
      Konstantin Shlyakhovoy authored
      RTC stores time and date in several registers.  Due to the fact that
      these registers can't be read instantaneously, there is a chance that
      reading from counting registers gives an error of one minute, one hour,
      one day, etc.
      
      To address this issue, the RTC has hardware support to copy the RTC
      counting registers to static shadowed registers.  The current
      implementation does not use this feature, and in a stress test, we can
      reproduce this error at a rate of around two times per 300000 readings.
      
      Fix the implementation to ensure that the right snapshot of time is
      captured.
