Abort dm ioctl processing if userspace changes the data_size parameter
after we validated it but before we finished copying the data buffer
from userspace.
The dm ioctl parameters are processed in the following sequence:
1. ctl_ioctl() calls copy_params();
2. copy_params() makes a first copy of the fixed-sized portion of the
userspace parameters into the local variable "tmp";
3. copy_params() then validates tmp.data_size and allocates a new
structure big enough to hold the complete data and copies the whole
userspace buffer there;
4. ctl_ioctl() reads userspace data the second time and copies the whole
buffer into the pointer "param";
5. ctl_ioctl() reads param->data_size without any validation and stores it
in the variable "input_param_size";
6. "input_param_size" is further used as the authoritative size of the
kernel buffer.
The problem is that userspace code could change the contents of user
memory between steps 2 and 4. In particular, the data_size parameter
can be changed to an invalid value after the kernel has validated it.
This lets userspace force the kernel to access invalid kernel memory.
The fix is to ensure that the size has not changed at step 4.
This patch shouldn't have a security impact because CAP_SYS_ADMIN is
required to run this code, but it should be fixed anyway.
This patch fixes a compilation failure on sparc32 by renaming struct node.
struct node is already defined in include/linux/node.h. On sparc32, it
happens to be included through other dependencies and persistent-data
doesn't compile because of conflicting declarations.
The function rb_check_pages() was added to make sure the ring buffer's
pages were sane. This check is done when the ring buffer size is modified
as well as when the iterator is released (closing the "trace" file),
as that was considered a non fast path and a good place to do a sanity
check.
The problem is that the check does not have any locks around it.
If one process were to read the trace file, and another were to read
the raw binary file, the check could happen while the reader is reading
the file.
The issues with this is that the check requires to clear the HEAD page
before doing the full check and it restores it afterward. But readers
require the HEAD page to exist before it can read the buffer, otherwise
it gives a nasty warning and disables the buffer.
By adding the reader lock around the check, this keeps the race from
happening.

rpc_kill_sb() must defer calling put_net() until after the notifier
has been called, since most (all?) of the notifier callbacks assume
that sb->s_fs_info points to a valid net namespace. It also must not
call put_net() if the call to rpc_fill_super was unsuccessful.
It's used in a recent mesa commit:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=24b1206ab2dcd506aaac3ef656aebc8bc20cd27a
and there may be some other cases in the future where it's required.
The dma_pte_free_pagetable() function will only free a page table page
if it is asked to free the *entire* 2MiB range that it covers. So if a
page table page was used for one or more small mappings, it's likely to
end up still present in the page tables... but with no valid PTEs.
This was fine when we'd only be repopulating it with 4KiB PTEs anyway
but the same virtual address range can end up being reused for a
*large-page* mapping. And in that case were were trying to insert the
large page into the second-level page table, and getting a complaint
from the sanity check in __domain_mapping() because there was already a
corresponding entry. This was *relatively* harmless; it led to a memory
leak of the old page table page, but no other ill-effects.
Fix it by calling dma_pte_clear_range (hopefully redundant) and
dma_pte_free_pagetable() before setting up the new large page.

Users of jffs2_do_reserve_space() expect they still held
erase_completion_lock after call to it. But there is a path
where jffs2_do_reserve_space() leaves erase_completion_lock unlocked.
The patch fixes it.
Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).
If the rpc_task exits while holding the socket write lock before it has
allocated an rpc slot, then the usual mechanism for releasing the write
lock in xprt_release() is defeated.
The problem occurs if the call to xprt_lock_write() initially fails, so
that the rpc_task is put on the xprt->sending wait queue. If the task
exits after being assigned the lock by __xprt_lock_write_func, but
before it has retried the call to xprt_lock_and_alloc_slot(), then
it calls xprt_release() while holding the write lock, but will
immediately exit due to the test for task->tk_rqstp != NULL.
This patch ensures that we free the rpc_task after the cleanup callbacks
are done in order to avoid a deadlock problem that can be triggered if
the callback needs to wait for another workqueue item to complete.
There are SUNRPC clients, which program doesn't have pipe_dir_name. These
clients can be skipped on PipeFS events, because nothing have to be created or
destroyed. But instead of breaking in case of such a client was found, search
for suitable client over clients list have to be continued. Otherwise some
clients could not be covered by PipeFS event handler.
It could happen (1 out of 100 times) that NAND did not start up
correctly after warm rebooting, so the kernel could not find the UBI or
DMA timed out due to a stalled BCH. When resetting BCH together with
GPMI, the issue could not be observed anymore (after 10000+ reboots). We
probably need the consistent state already before sending any command to
NAND, even when no ECC is needed. I chose to keep the extra reset for
BCH when changing the flash layout to be on the safe side.
Initialising ecc.strength before the call to nand_scan() fixes this.

Commit fa77dcfafeaa introduces block bitmap checksum calculation into
ext4_new_inode() in the case that block group was uninitialized.
However we brelse() the bitmap buffer before we attempt to checksum it
so we have no guarantee that the buffer is still there.
Fix this by releasing the buffer after the possible checksum
computation.

mfd_remove_devices would iterate over all devices sharing a parent with
an mfd device regardless of whether they were allocated by the mfd core
or not. This especially caused problems when the device structure was
not contained within a platform_device, because to_platform_device is
used on each device pointer.
This patch defines a device_type for mfd devices and checks this is
present from mfd_remove_devices_fn before processing the device.

The lockdep warning below is in theory correct but it will be in really weird
rare situation that ends up that deadlock since the tcm fc session is hashed
based the rport id. Nonetheless, the complaining below is about rcu callback
that does the transport_deregister_session() is happening in softirq, where
transport_register_session() that happens earlier is not. This triggers the
lockdep warning below. So, just fix this to make lockdep happy by disabling
the soft irq before calling transport_register_session() in ft_prli.
BTW, this was found in FCoE VN2VN over two VMs, couple of create and destroy
would get this triggered.
v1: was enforcing register to be in softirq context which was not righ. See,
http://www.spinics.net/lists/target-devel/msg03614.html
v2: following comments from Roland&Nick (thanks), it seems we don't have to
do transport_deregister_session() in rcu callback, so move it into ft_sess_free()
but still do kfree() of the corresponding ft_sess struct in rcu callback to
make sure the ft_sess is not freed till the rcu callback.

sata_promise's pdc_hard_reset_port() needs to serialize because it
flips a port-specific bit in controller register that's shared by
all ports. The code takes the ata host lock for this, but that's
broken because an interrupt may arrive on our irq during the hard
reset sequence, and that too will take the ata host lock. With
lockdep enabled a big nasty warning is seen.
Fixed by adding private state to the ata host structure, containing
a second lock used only for serializing the hard reset sequences.
This eliminated the lockdep warnings both on my test rig and on
the original reporter's machine.

The function iscsit_build_conn_drop_async_message() is called
from iscsit_close_connection() with spin lock 'sess->conn_lock'
held, so we should use GFP_ATOMIC instead of GFP_KERNEL.
When the qla2xxx driver loses access to multiple, remote ports, there is a race
condition which can occur which will keep the request stuck on a scsi request
queue indefinitely.
This bad state occurred do to a race condition with how the FCPORT_UPDATE_NEEDED
bit is set in qla2x00_schedule_rport_del(), and how it is cleared in
qla2x00_do_dpc(). The problem port has its drport pointer set, but it has never
been processed by the driver to inform the fc transport that the port has been
lost. qla2x00_schedule_rport_del() sets drport, and then sets the
FCPORT_UPDATE_NEEDED bit. In qla2x00_do_dpc(), the port lists are walked and
any drport pointer is handled and the fc transport informed of the port loss,
then the FCPORT_UPDATE_NEEDED bit is cleared. This leaves a race where the
dpc thread is processing one port removal, another port removal is marked
with a call to qla2x00_schedule_rport_del(), and the dpc thread clears the
bit for both removals, even though only the first removal was actually
handled. Until another event occurs to set FCPORT_UPDATE_NEEDED, the later
port removal is never finished and qla2xxx stays in a bad state which causes
requests to become stuck on request queues.
This patch updates the driver to test and clear FCPORT_UPDATE_NEEDED
atomically. This ensures the port state changes are processed and not lost.

store_host_reset() has tried to re-invent the wheel to compare sysfs strings.
Unfortunately it did so poorly and never bothered to check the input from
userspace before overwriting stack with it, so something simple as:
This patch fixes both the transmit and receive portion of sending
fragmented mutlicast and broadcast packets.
The transmit section was broken because the offset for INTFRAG and
LASTFRAG packets were just miscalculated by IEEE1394_GASP_HDR_SIZE (which
was reserved with skb_push() in fwnet_send_packet).
The receive section was broken because in fwnet_incoming_packet is a call
to fwnet_peer_find_by_node_id(). Called with generation == -1 it will
not find a peer and the partial datagrams are associated to a peer.
[Stefan R: The fix to use context->card->generation is not perfect.
It relies on the IR tasklet which processes packets from the prior bus
generation to run before the self-ID-complete worklet which sets the
current card generation. Alas, there is no simple way of a race-free
implementation. Let's do it this way for now.]

While AR_PHY_CCA_NOM_VAL_* does contain the expected internal noise floor
for a chip measured in clean air, it refers to the lowest expected reading.
Depending on the frequency, this measurement can vary by about 6db, thus
causing a higher reported channel noise and signal strength.
Factor in the 6db offset when converting internal noisefloor to channel noise.
This patch makes the reported values more accurate for all chips without

The current calculation in pfn_to_bitidx assumes that (pfn -
zone->zone_start_pfn) >> pageblock_order will return the same bit for
all pfn in a pageblock. If zone_start_pfn is not aligned to
pageblock_nr_pages, this may not always be correct.
Consider the following with pageblock order = 10, zone start 2MB:
This means that calling {get,set}_pageblock_migratetype on a single page
will not set the migratetype for the full block. Fix this by rounding
down zone_start_pfn when doing the bitidx calculation.
For our use case, the effects of this bug were mostly tied to the fact
that CMA allocations would either take a long time or fail to happen.
Depending on the driver using CMA, this could result in anything from
visual glitches to application failures.

When poweroff machine, kernel_power_off() call disable_nonboot_cpus().
And if we have HOTPLUG_CPU configured, disable_nonboot_cpus() is not an
empty function but attempt to actually disable the nonboot cpus. Since
system state is SYSTEM_POWER_OFF, play_dead() won't be called and thus
disable_nonboot_cpus() hangs. Therefore, we make this patch to avoid
poweroff failure.
The check to whom a device is reserved is done by checking the path
state of the affected channel paths. If it turns out that one path is
flagged as reserved by someone else the whole device is marked as such.
However the meaning of the RESVD_ELSE bit is that the addressed device
is reserved to a different pathgroup (and not reserved to a different
LPAR). If we do this test on a path which is currently not a member of
the pathgroup we could erroneously mark the device as reserved to
someone else.
To fix this collect the reserved state for all potential members of the

Prior to memory slot sorting this loop compared all of the user memory
slots for overlap with new entries. With memory slot sorting, we're
just checking some number of entries in the array that may or may not
be user slots. Instead, walk all the slots with kvm_for_each_memslot,
which has the added benefit of terminating early when we hit the first
empty slot, and skip comparison to private slots.
The locking in update_vsyscall_tz() is not only unnecessary because the vdso
code copies the data unproteced in __kernel_gettimeofday() but also
introduces a hard to reproduce race condition between update_vsyscall()
and update_vsyscall_tz(), which causes user space process to loop
forever in vdso code.
The following patch removes the locking from update_vsyscall_tz().
Locking is not only unnecessary because the vdso code copies the data
unprotected in __kernel_gettimeofday() but also erroneous because updating
the tb_update_count is not atomic and introduces a hard to reproduce race
condition between update_vsyscall() and update_vsyscall_tz(), which further
causes user space process to loop forever in vdso code.
The below scenario describes the race condition,
x==0 Boot CPU other CPU
proc_P: x==0
timer interrupt
update_vsyscall
x==1 x++;sync settimeofday
update_vsyscall_tz
x==2 x++;sync
x==3 sync;x++
sync;x++
proc_P: x==3 (loops until x becomes even)
Because the ++ operator would be implemented as three instructions and not
atomic on powerpc.

Since commit e303297e6c3a ("mm: extended batches for generic
mmu_gather") we are batching pages to be freed until either
tlb_next_batch cannot allocate a new batch or we are done.
This works just fine most of the time but we can get in troubles with
non-preemptible kernel (CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE or CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY)
on large machines where too aggressive batching might lead to soft
lockups during process exit path (exit_mmap) because there are no
scheduling points down the free_pages_and_swap_cache path and so the
freeing can take long enough to trigger the soft lockup.
The lockup is harmless except when the system is setup to panic on
softlockup which is not that unusual.
The simplest way to work around this issue is to limit the maximum
number of batches in a single mmu_gather. 10k of collected pages should
be safe to prevent from soft lockups (we would have 2ms for one) even if
they are all freed without an explicit scheduling point.
This patch doesn't add any new explicit scheduling points because it
relies on zap_pmd_range during page tables zapping which calls
cond_resched per PMD.
The following lockup has been reported for 3.0 kernel with a huge
process (in order of hundreds gigs but I do know any more details).
tm_mon is 0..11, whereas vt8500 expects 1..12 for the month field,
causing invalid date errors for January, and causing the day field to
roll over incorrectly.

vt8500_rtc_set_time. This patch corrects the behaviour of the century

The inb/outb macros for CRIS are broken from a number of points of view,
missing () around parameters and they have an unprotected if statement
in them. This was breaking the compile of IPMI on CRIS and thus I was
being annoyed by build regressions, so I fixed them.
Plus I don't think they would have worked at all, since the data values
were missing "&" and the outsl had a "3" instead of a "4" for the size.
From what I can tell, this stuff is not used at all, so this can't be
any more broken than it was before, anyway.
The atomic64 library uses a handful of static spin locks to implement
atomic 64-bit operations on architectures without support for atomic
64-bit instructions.
Unfortunately, the spinlocks are initialized in a pure initcall and that
is too late for the vfs namespace code which wants to use atomic64
operations before the initcall is run.
This became a problem as of commit 8823c079ba71: "vfs: Add setns support

any incoming segment. The ACK value is considered acceptable only if
it is in the range of ((SND.UNA - MAX.SND.WND) <= SEG.ACK <=

above condition MUST be discarded and an ACK sent back.

We can update our view of peer tsval from a frame that is
later discarded by tcp_ack()
This makes timestamps enabled sessions vulnerable to injection of
a high tsval : peers start an ACK storm, since the victim
sends a dupack each time it receives an ACK from the other peer.
As tcp_validate_incoming() is called before tcp_ack(), we should

commit 35f9c09fe9c72e (tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once)
added an internal flag : MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST meant to be set on all
frags but the last one for a splice() call.
The condition used to set the flag in pipe_to_sendpage() relied on
splice() user passing the exact number of bytes present in the pipe,
or a smaller one.
But some programs pass an arbitrary high value, and the test fails.
The effect of this bug is a lack of tcp_push() at the end of a
splice(pipe -> socket) call, and possibly very slow or erratic TCP
sessions.
We should both test sd->total_len and fact that another fragment
is in the pipe (pipe->nrbufs > 1)
Many thanks to Willy for providing very clear bug report, bisection
and test programs.

This happens, because sk_clone_lock initializes sk_refcnt to 2, and thus
a single sock_put() is not enough to free the memory. Additionally, things
like xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,... may have been initialized.
We have to free them properly.
This is fixed by forcing a call to tcp_done(), ending up in
inet_csk_destroy_sock, doing the final sock_put(). tcp_done() is necessary,
because it ends up doing all the cleanup on xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,
xfrm,...
Before calling tcp_done, we have to set the socket to SOCK_DEAD, to
force it entering inet_csk_destroy_sock. To avoid the warning in
inet_csk_destroy_sock, inet_num has to be set to 0.
As inet_csk_destroy_sock does a dec on orphan_count, we first have to
increase it.
Calling tcp_done() allows us to remove the calls to
tcp_clear_xmit_timer() and tcp_cleanup_congestion_control().
A similar approach is taken for dccp by calling dccp_done().

The Way Access Filter in recent AMD CPUs may hurt the performance of
some workloads, caused by aliasing issues in the L1 cache.
This patch disables it on the affected CPUs.
The issue is similar to that one of last year:
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1107.3/00041.html
This new patch does not replace the old one, we just need another
quirk for newer CPUs.
The performance penalty without the patch depends on the
circumstances, but is a bit less than the last year's 3%.
The workloads affected would be those that access code from the same
physical page under different virtual addresses, so different
processes using the same libraries with ASLR or multiple instances of
PIE-binaries. The code needs to be accessed simultaneously from both
cores of the same compute unit.
More details can be found here:
http://developer.amd.com/Assets/SharedL1InstructionCacheonAMD15hCPU.pdf
CPUs affected are anything with the core known as Piledriver.
That includes the new parts of the AMD A-Series (aka Trinity) and the
just released new CPUs of the FX-Series (aka Vishera).
The model numbering is a bit odd here: FX CPUs have model 2,
A-Series has model 10h, with possible extensions to 1Fh. Hence the
range of model ids.
A task is considered frozen enough between freezer_do_not_count() and
freezer_count() and freezers use freezer_should_skip() to test this
condition. This supposedly works because freezer_count() always calls
try_to_freezer() after clearing %PF_FREEZER_SKIP.
However, there currently is nothing which guarantees that
freezer_count() sees %true freezing() after clearing %PF_FREEZER_SKIP
when freezing is in progress, and vice-versa. A task can escape the
freezing condition in effect by freezer_count() seeing !freezing() and
freezer_should_skip() seeing %PF_FREEZER_SKIP.
This patch adds smp_mb()'s to freezer_count() and
freezer_should_skip() such that either %true freezing() is visible to
freezer_count() or !PF_FREEZER_SKIP is visible to
freezer_should_skip().

xhci_alloc_segments_for_ring() builds a list of xhci_segments and links
the tail to head at the end (forming a ring). When it bails out for OOM
reasons half-way through, it tries to destroy its half-built list with
xhci_free_segments_for_ring(), even though it is not a ring yet. This
causes a null-pointer dereference upon hitting the last element.
Furthermore, one of its callers (xhci_ring_alloc()) mistakenly believes
the output parameters to be valid upon this kind of OOM failure, and
calls xhci_ring_free() on them. Since the (incomplete) list/ring should
already be destroyed in that case, this would lead to a use after free.
This patch fixes those issues by having xhci_alloc_segments_for_ring()
destroy its half-built, non-circular list manually and destroying the
invalid struct xhci_ring in xhci_ring_alloc() with a plain kfree().

The xHCI 1.0 specification made a change to the TD Size field in TRBs.
The value is now the number of packets that remain to be sent in the TD,
not including this TRB. The TD Size value for the last TRB in a TD must
always be zero.
The xHCI function xhci_v1_0_td_remainder() attempts to calculate this,
but it gets it wrong. First, it erroneously reuses the old
xhci_td_remainder function, which will right shift the value by 10. The
xHCI 1.0 spec as of June 2011 says nothing about right shifting by 10.
Second, it does not set the TD size for the last TRB in a TD to zero.
Third, it uses roundup instead of DIV_ROUND_UP. The total packet count
is supposed to be the total number of bytes in this TD, divided by the
max packet size, rounded up. DIV_ROUND_UP is the right function to use
in that case.
With the old code, a TD on an endpoint with max packet size 1024 would
be set up like so:
TRB 1, TRB length = 600 bytes, TD size = 0
TRB 1, TRB length = 200 bytes, TD size = 0
TRB 1, TRB length = 100 bytes, TD size = 0
With the new code, the TD would be set up like this:
TRB 1, TRB length = 600 bytes, TD size = 1
TRB 1, TRB length = 200 bytes, TD size = 1
TRB 1, TRB length = 100 bytes, TD size = 0
This commit should be backported to kernels as old as 3.0, that contain

Sankara reported that the genirq core code fails to adjust the
affinity of an interrupt thread in several cases:
1) On request/setup_irq() the call to setup_affinity() happens before
the new action is registered, so the new thread is not notified.
2) For secondary shared interrupts nothing notifies the new thread to
change its affinity.
3) Interrupts which have the IRQ_NO_BALANCE flag set are not moving
the thread either.
Fix this by setting the thread affinity flag right on thread creation
time. This ensures that under all circumstances the thread moves to
the right place. Requires a check in irq_thread_check_affinity for an
existing affinity mask (CONFIG_CPU_MASK_OFFSTACK=y)

With NFSv4, if we create a file then open it we explicit avoid checking
the permissions on the file during the open because the fact that we
created it ensures we should be allow to open it (the create and the
open should appear to be a single operation).
However if the reply to an EXCLUSIVE create gets lots and the client
resends the create, the current code will perform the permission check -
because it doesn't realise that it did the open already..
This patch should fix this.
Note that I haven't actually seen this cause a problem. I was just
looking at the code trying to figure out a different EXCLUSIVE open
related issue, and this looked wrong.

It is almost always wrong for NFS to call drop_nlink() after removing a
file. What we really want is to mark the inode's attributes for
revalidation, and we want to ensure that the VFS drops it if we're
reasonably sure that this is the final unlink().
Do the former using the usual cache validity flags, and the latter
by testing if inode->i_nlink == 1, and clearing it in that case.
This also fixes the following warning reported by Neil Brown and
Jeff Layton (among others).
In rare circumstances, nfs_clone_server() of a v2 or v3 server can get
an error between setting server->destory (to nfs_destroy_server), and
calling nfs_start_lockd (which will set server->nlm_host).
If this happens, nfs_clone_server will call nfs_free_server which
will call nfs_destroy_server and thence nlmclnt_done(NULL). This
causes the NULL to be dereferenced.
So add a guard to only call nlmclnt_done() if ->nlm_host is not NULL.
The other guards there are irrelevant as nlm_host can only be non-NULL
if one of these flags are set - so remove those tests. (Thanks to Trond
for this suggestion).
This is suitable for any stable kernel since 2.6.25.
If I mount an NFS v4.1 server to a single client multiple times and then
run xfstests over each mountpoint I usually get the client into a state
where recovery deadlocks. The server informs the client of a
cb_path_down sequence error, the client then does a
bind_connection_to_session and checks the status of the lease.
I found that bind_connection_to_session sets the NFS4_SESSION_DRAINING
flag on the client, but this flag is never unset before
nfs4_check_lease() reaches nfs4_proc_sequence(). This causes the client
to deadlock, halting all NFS activity to the server. nfs4_proc_sequence()
is only called by the state manager, so I can change it to run in privileged
mode to bypass the NFS4_SESSION_DRAINING check and avoid the deadlock.
At one point acpi_device_set_id() checks if acpi_device_hid(device)
returns NULL, but that never happens, so system bus devices with an
empty list of PNP IDs are given the dummy HID ("device") instead of
the "system bus HID" ("LNXSYBUS"). Fix the code to use the right
check.

The current acpisleep DMI checks only run when CONFIG_SUSPEND is set.
And this may break hibernation on some platforms when CONFIG_SUSPEND
is cleared.
Move acpisleep DMI check into #ifdef CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP instead.
[rjw: Added acpi_sleep_dmi_check() and rebased on top of earlier
patches adding entries to acpisleep_dmi_table[].]
