dxfer_len is an unsigned int and we always assign a value > 0 to it, so it doesn't make any sense to check if it is < 0. We can't really check dxferp as well as we have both NULL and not NULL cases in the possible call paths. So just return true for SG_DXFER_FROM_DEV transfer in sg_is_valid_dxfer(). Signed-off-by:

The smartpqi firmware will bypass the cache for any request larger than 1MB, so we should cap the request size to avoid any performance degradation in kernels later than v4.3 This degradation is caused from d2be537c, which changed max_sectors_kb to 1280k, but the hardware is able to work fine with it, so the true fix should be from smartpqi driver.

This patch is basically to silence a static checker warning. drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_disc.c:326 fc_disc_error() warn: passing a valid pointer to 'PTR_ERR' It doesn't affect runtime because it treats -ENOMEM and a valid pointer the same. But the documentation says we should be passing an error pointer. Signed-off-by:Johannes Thumshirn <jth@kernel.org> Signed-off-by:

SG_DXFER_FROM_DEV transfers do not necessarily have a dxferp as we set it to NULL for the old sg_io read/write interface, but must have a length bigger than 0. This fixes a regression introduced by commit 28676d86 ("scsi: sg: check for valid direction before starting the request") Signed-off-by:

When building the argv/envp pointers, the envp is needlessly pre-incremented instead of just continuing after the argv pointers are finished. In some (likely impossible) race where the strings could be changed from userspace between copy_strings() and here, it might be possible to confuse the envp position. Instead, just use sp like everything else. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170622173838.GA43308@beastSigned-off-by:

Now that explicitly executed loaders are loaded in the mmap region, we have more freedom to decide where we position PIE binaries in the address space to avoid possible collisions with mmap or stack regions. For 64-bit, align to 4GB to allow runtimes to use the entire 32-bit address space for 32-bit pointers. On 32-bit use 4MB, which is the traditional x86 minimum load location, likely to avoid historically requiring a 4MB page table entry when only a portion of the first 4MB would be used (since the NULL address is avoided). For s390 the position could be 0x10000, but that is needlessly close to the NULL address. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1498154792-49952-5-git-send-email-keescook@chromium.orgSigned-off-by:

The ELF_ET_DYN_BASE position was originally intended to keep loaders away from ET_EXEC binaries. (For example, running "/lib/ld-linux.so.2 /bin/cat" might cause the subsequent load of /bin/cat into where the loader had been loaded.) With the advent of PIE (ET_DYN binaries with an INTERP Program Header), ELF_ET_DYN_BASE continued to be used since the kernel was only looking at ET_DYN. However, since ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is traditionally set at the top 1/3rd of the TASK_SIZE, a substantial portion of the address space is unused. For 32-bit tasks when RLIMIT_STACK is set to RLIM_INFINITY, programs are loaded above the mmap region. This means they can be made to collide (CVE-2017-1000370) or nearly collide (CVE-2017-1000371) with pathological stack regions. Lowering ELF_ET_DYN_BASE solves both by moving programs below the mmap region in all cases, and will now additionally avoid programs falling back to the mmap region by enforcing MAP_FIXED for program loads (i.e. if it would have collided with the stack, now it will fail to load instead of falling back to the mmap region). To allow for a lower ELF_ET_DYN_BASE, loaders (ET_DYN without INTERP) are loaded into the mmap region, leaving space available for either an ET_EXEC binary with a fixed location or PIE being loaded into mmap by the loader. Only PIE programs are loaded offset from ELF_ET_DYN_BASE, which means architectures can now safely lower their values without risk of loaders colliding with their subsequently loaded programs. For 64-bit, ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is best set to 4GB to allow runtimes to use the entire 32-bit address space for 32-bit pointers. Thanks to PaX Team, Daniel Micay, and Rik van Riel for inspiration and suggestions on how to implement this solution.

We've encountered zombies that are waiting for a thread to exit that are looping in ep_poll() almost endlessly although there is a pending SIGKILL as a result of a group exit. This happens because we always find ep_events_available() and fetch more events and never are able to check for signal_pending() that would break from the loop and return -EINTR. Special case fatal signals and break immediately to guarantee that we loop to fetch more events and delay making a timely exit. It would also be possible to simply move the check for signal_pending() higher than checking for ep_events_available(), but there have been no reports of delayed signal handling other than SIGKILL preventing zombies from exiting that would be fixed by this. It fixes an issue for us where we have witnessed zombies sticking around for at least O(minutes), but considering the code has been like this forever and nobody else has complained that I have found, I would simply queue it up for 4.12.

The boolean --color argument did not offer the ability to force colourized output even if stdout is not a terminal. Change the format of the argument to the familiar --color[=WHEN] construct as seen in common Linux utilities such as git, ls and dmesg, which allows the user to specify whether to colourize output "always", "never", or "auto" when the output is a terminal. The default is "auto". The old command-line uses of --color and --no-color are unchanged.

As of perl 5, version 26, subversion 0 (v5.26.0) some new warnings have occurred when running checkpatch. Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated here (and will be fatal in Perl 5.30), passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/^(.\s*){ <-- HERE \s*/ at scripts/checkpatch.pl line 3544. Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated here (and will be fatal in Perl 5.30), passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/^(.\s*){ <-- HERE \s*/ at scripts/checkpatch.pl line 3885. Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated here (and will be fatal in Perl 5.30), passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/^(\+.*(?:do|\))){ <-- HERE / at scripts/checkpatch.pl line 4374. It seems perfectly reasonable to do as the warning suggests and simply escape the left brace in these three locations.

Add a block that identifies multiple line function definitions. Save the function name into $context_function to improve the embedded function name test. Look for misplaced open brace on the function definition. Emit an OPEN_BRACE error when the function definition is similar to void foo(int arg1, int arg2) { Miscellanea: o Remove the $realfile test in function declaration w/o named arguments test o Comment the function declaration w/o named arguments test Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/de620ed6ebab75fdfa323741ada2134a0f545892.1496835238.git.joe@perches.comSigned-off-by:David Kershner <david.kershner@unisys.com> Signed-off-by:

Checkpatch warns of an incorrect commit reference style for any hexadecimal number of 12 digits and more. Numbers of 12 digits are not necessarily commit ids. For an example provoking the problem see https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9170897/ Checkpatch should only warn if the number refers to an existing commit.

Fix the off-by-one in the suppression of lines in a statement block. This means that for multiple line statements like foo(bar, baz, qux); $stat has been inspected first correctly for the entire statement, and subsequently incorrectly just for qux); This fix will help make tracking appropriate indentation a little easier.

For consistency, MAINTAINERS entries should be an upper case letter, then a colon, then a tab, then the value. Warn when an entry doesn't have this form. --fix it too. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/9aaaf03ec10adf3888b5e98dd2176b7fe9b5fad8.1496343345.git.joe@perches.comSigned-off-by:
