Commit 1717f209 ("panic, x86: Fix re-entrance problem due to panic on NMI") introduced nmi_panic() which prevents concurrent and recursive execution of panic(). It also saves registers for the crash dump on x86 by later commit 58c5661f ("panic, x86: Allow CPUs to save registers even if looping in NMI context"). hpwdt driver can call panic() from NMI handler, so replace it with nmi_panic(). Also, do some cleanups.

Commit 1717f209 ("panic, x86: Fix re-entrance problem due to panic on NMI") and commit 58c5661f ("panic, x86: Allow CPUs to save registers even if looping in NMI context") introduced nmi_panic() which prevents concurrent/recursive execution of panic(). It also saves registers for the crash dump on x86. However, there are some cases where NMI handlers still use panic(). This patch set partially replaces them with nmi_panic() in those cases. Even this patchset is applied, some NMI or similar handlers (e.g. MCE handler) continue to use panic(). This is because I can't test them well and actual problems won't happen. For example, the possibility that normal panic and panic on MCE happen simultaneously is very low. This patch (of 3): Convert nmi_panic() to a proper function and export it instead of exporting internal implementation details to modules, for obvious reasons.

Since commit e22553e2 ("eventfd: don't take the spinlock in eventfd_poll", 2015-02-17), eventfd is reading ctx->count outside ctx->wqh.lock. However, things aren't as simple as the read barrier in eventfd_poll would suggest. In fact, the read barrier, besides lacking a comment, is not paired in any obvious manner with another read barrier, and it is pointless because it is sitting between a write (deep in poll_wait) and the read of ctx->count. The read barrier is acting just as a compiler barrier, for which we can use READ_ONCE instead. This is what the code change in this patch does. The documentation change is just as important, however. The question, posed by Andrea Arcangeli, is then why the thing is safe on architectures where spin_unlock does not imply a store-load memory barrier. The answer is that it's safe because writes of ctx->count use the same lock as poll_wait, and hence an acquire barrier implicit in poll_wait provides the necessary synchronization between eventfd_poll and callers of wake_up_locked_poll. This is sort of mentioned in the commit message with respect to eventfd_ctx_read ("eventfd_read is similar, it will do a single decrement with the lock held") but it applies to all other callers too. It's tricky enough that it should be documented in the code.

The current_user_ns() macro currently returns &init_user_ns when user namespaces are disabled, and that causes several warnings when building with gcc-6.0 in code that compares the result of the macro to &init_user_ns itself: fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl.c: In function 'xfs_ioctl_setattr_check_projid': fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl.c:1249:22: error: self-comparison always evaluates to true [-Werror=tautological-compare] if (current_user_ns() == &init_user_ns) This is a legitimate warning in principle, but here it isn't really helpful, so I'm reprasing the definition in a way that shuts up the warning. Apparently gcc only warns when comparing identical literals, but it can figure out that the result of an inline function can be identical to a constant expression in order to optimize a condition yet not warn about the fact that the condition is known at compile time. This is exactly what we want here, and it looks reasonable because we generally prefer inline functions over macros anyway.

Add new Port Write handler registration interfaces that attach PW handlers to local mport device objects. This is different from old interface that attaches PW callback to individual RapidIO device. The new interfaces are intended for use for common event handling (e.g. hot-plug notifications) while the old interface is available for individual device drivers. This patch is based on patch proposed by Andre van Herk but preserves existing per-device interface and adds lock protection for list handling.

These patches are the result of extensive collaboration within the RapidIO.org Software Task Group between Texas Instruments, Freescale, Prodrive Technologies, Nokia Networks, BAE and IDT. Additional input was received from other members of RapidIO.org. The objective was to create a character mode driver interface which exposes the capabilities of RapidIO devices directly to applications, in a manner that allows the numerous and varied RapidIO implementations to interoperate. The Software Task Group has also developed fabric management, Remote Memory Access, and sockets applications which make use of these interfaces in user space. Intensive testing with these applications prompted the RapidIO subsystem updates provided within this set of patches. This patch (of 29): Replace default Ethernet-specific routine by the custom one to allow setting of larger MTU supported by RapidIO messaging (max RIO packet size is 4096 bytes).

This commit fixes the following security hole affecting systems where all of the following conditions are fulfilled: - The fs.suid_dumpable sysctl is set to 2. - The kernel.core_pattern sysctl's value starts with "/". (Systems where kernel.core_pattern starts with "|/" are not affected.) - Unprivileged user namespace creation is permitted. (This is true on Linux >=3.8, but some distributions disallow it by default using a distro patch.) Under these conditions, if a program executes under secure exec rules, causing it to run with the SUID_DUMP_ROOT flag, then unshares its user namespace, changes its root directory and crashes, the coredump will be written using fsuid=0 and a path derived from kernel.core_pattern - but this path is interpreted relative to the root directory of the process, allowing the attacker to control where a coredump will be written with root privileges. To fix the security issue, always interpret core_pattern for dumps that are written under SUID_DUMP_ROOT relative to the root directory of init.

This test-case (simplified version of generated by syzkaller) #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/ptrace.h> #include <sys/wait.h> void test(void) { for (;;) { if (fork()) { wait(NULL); continue; } ptrace(PTRACE_SEIZE, getppid(), 0, 0); ptrace(PTRACE_INTERRUPT, getppid(), 0, 0); _exit(0); } } int main(void) { int np; for (np = 0; np < 8; ++np) if (!fork()) test(); while (wait(NULL) > 0) ; return 0; } triggers the 2nd WARN_ON_ONCE(!signr) warning in do_jobctl_trap(). The problem is that __ptrace_unlink() clears task->jobctl under siglock but task->ptrace is cleared without this lock held; this fools the "else" branch which assumes that !PT_SEIZED means PT_PTRACED. Note also that most of other PTRACE_SEIZE checks can race with detach from the exiting tracer too. Say, the callers of ptrace_trap_notify() assume that SEIZED can't go away after it was checked.

FAT has long supported its own default file name encoding config setting, separate from CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT. However, if UTF-8 encoded file names are desired FAT character set should not be set to utf8 since this would make file names case sensitive even if case insensitive matching is requested. Instead, "utf8" mount options should be provided to enable UTF-8 file names in FAT file system. Unfortunately, there was no possibility to set the default value of this option so on UTF-8 system "utf8" mount option had to be added manually to most FAT mounts. This patch adds config option to set such default value. Signed-off-by: Maciej S.

x86's is_compat_task always checked the current syscall type, not the task type. It has no non-arch users any more, so just remove it to avoid confusion. On x86, nothing should really be checking the task ABI. There are legitimate users for the syscall ABI and for the mm ABI.
