      Pull workqueue fix from Tejun Heo:
       "The xfs folks have been running into weird and very rare lockups for
        some time now.  I didn't think this could have been from workqueue
        side because no one else was reporting it.  This time, Eric had a
        kdump which we looked into and it turned out this actually was a
        workqueue bug and the bug has been there since the beginning of
        concurrency managed workqueue.
      
        A worker pool ensures forward progress of the workqueues associated
        with it by always having at least one worker reserved from executing
        work items.  When the pool is under contention, the idle one tries to
        create more workers for the pool and if that doesn't succeed quickly
        enough, it calls the rescuers to the pool.
      
        This logic had a subtle race condition in an early exit path.  When a
        worker invokes this manager function, the function may return %false
        indicating that the caller may proceed to executing work items either
        because another worker is already performing the role or conditions
        have changed and the pool is no longer under contention.
      
        The latter part depended on the assumption that whether more workers
        are necessary or not remains stable while the pool is locked; however,
        pool->nr_running (concurrency count) may change asynchronously and it
        getting bumped from zero asynchronously could send off the last idle
        worker to execute work items.
      
        The race window is fairly narrow, and, even when it gets triggered,
        the pool deadlocks iff if all work items get blocked on pending work
        items of the pool, which is highly unlikely but can be triggered by
        xfs.
      
        The patch removes the race window by removing the early exit path,
        which doesn't server any purpose anymore anyway"

      s2io: use snprintf() as a safety feature · a8c1d28a
      Dan Carpenter authored
      "sp->desc[i]" has 25 characters.  "dev->name" has 15 characters.  If we
      used all 15 characters then the sprintf() would overflow.
      
      I changed the "sprintf(sp->name, "%s Neterion %s"" to snprintf(), as
      well, even though it can't overflow just to be consistent.

      net: sctp: fix race for one-to-many sockets in sendmsg's auto associate · 2061dcd6
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      I.e. one-to-many sockets in SCTP are not required to explicitly
      call into connect(2) or sctp_connectx(2) prior to data exchange.
      Instead, they can directly invoke sendmsg(2) and the SCTP stack
      will automatically trigger connection establishment through 4WHS
      via sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE(). However, this in its current
      implementation is racy: INIT is being sent out immediately (as
      it cannot be bundled anyway) and the rest of the DATA chunks are
      queued up for later xmit when connection is established, meaning
      sendmsg(2) will return successfully. This behaviour can result
      in an undesired side-effect that the kernel made the application
      think the data has already been transmitted, although none of it
      has actually left the machine, worst case even after close(2)'ing
      the socket.
      
      Instead, when the association from client side has been shut down
      e.g. first gracefully through SCTP_EOF and then close(2), the
      client could afterwards still receive the server's INIT_ACK due
      to a connection with higher latency. This INIT_ACK is then considered
      out of the blue and hence responded with ABORT as there was no
      alive assoc found anymore. This can be easily reproduced f.e.
      with sctp_test application from lksctp. One way to fix this race
      is to wait for the handshake to actually complete.
      
      The fix defers waiting after sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE() and
      sctp_primitive_SEND() succeeded, so that DATA chunks cooked up
      from sctp_sendmsg() have already been placed into the output
      queue through the side-effect interpreter, and therefore can then
      be bundeled together with COOKIE_ECHO control chunks.
      
      strace from example application (shortened):
      
      socket(PF_INET, SOCK_SEQPACKET, IPPROTO_SCTP) = 3
      sendmsg(3, {msg_name(28)={sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(8888), sin_addr=inet_addr("192.168.1.115")},
                 msg_iov(1)=[{"hello", 5}], msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, 0) = 5
