Currently module_mutex is taken before kprobe_mutex, but this can cause issues when we have kprobes register ftrace, as the ftrace mutex is taken before enabling a tracepoint, which currently takes the module mutex. If module_mutex is taken before kprobe_mutex, then we can not have kprobes use the ftrace infrastructure. There seems to be no reason that the kprobe_mutex can't be taken before the module_mutex. Running lockdep shows that it is safe among the kernels I've run.

Add selftests to test the save-regs functionality of ftrace. If the arch supports saving regs, then it will make sure that regs is at least not NULL in the callback. If the arch does not support saving regs, it makes sure that the registering of the ftrace_ops that requests saving regs fails. It then tests the registering of the ftrace_ops succeeds if the 'IF_SUPPORTED' flag is set. Then it makes sure that the regs passed to the function is NULL.

Add selftests to test the function tracing recursion protection actually does work. It also tests if a ftrace_ops states it will perform its own protection. Although, even if the ftrace_ops states it will protect itself, the ftrace infrastructure may still provide protection if the arch does not support all features or another ftrace_ops is registered.

Steven Rostedt authored
As more users of the function tracer utility are being added, they do not always add the necessary recursion protection. To protect from function recursion due to tracing, if the callback ftrace_ops does not specifically specify that it protects against recursion (by setting the FTRACE_OPS_FL_RECURSION_SAFE flag), the list operation will be called by the mcount trampoline which adds recursion protection. If the flag is set, then the function will be called directly with no extra protection. Note, the list operation is called if more than one function callback is registered, or if the arch does not support all of the function tracer features.

The final position of the stack after saving regs and setting up the parameters for ftrace_regs_call, is the position of the pt_regs needed for the 4th parameter. Instead of saving it into a temporary reg and pushing the reg, simply push the stack pointer.

Add a way to have different functions calling different trampolines. If a ftrace_ops wants regs saved on the return, then have only the functions with ops registered to save regs. Functions registered by other ops would not be affected, unless the functions overlap. If one ftrace_ops registered functions A, B and C and another ops registered fucntions to save regs on A, and D, then only functions A and D would be saving regs. Function B and C would work as normal. Although A is registered by both ops: normal and saves regs; this is fine as saving the regs is needed to satisfy one of the ops that calls it but the regs are ignored by the other ops function. x86_64 implements the full regs saving, and i386 just passes a NULL for regs to satisfy the ftrace_ops passing. Where an arch must supply both regs and ftrace_ops parameters, even if regs is just NULL. It is OK for an arch to pass NULL regs. All function trace users that require regs passing must add the flag FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS when registering the ftrace_ops. If the arch does not support saving regs then the ftrace_ops will fail to register. The flag FTRACE_OPS_FL_SAVE_REGS_IF_SUPPORTED may be set that will prevent the ftrace_ops from failing to register. In this case, the handler may either check if regs is not NULL or check if ARCH_SUPPORTS_FTRACE_SAVE_REGS. If the arch supports passing regs it will set this macro and pass regs for ops that request them. All other archs will just pass NULL.

Return as the 4th paramater to the function tracer callback the pt_regs. Later patches that implement regs passing for the architectures will require having the ftrace_ops set the SAVE_REGS flag, which will tell the arch to take the time to pass a full set of pt_regs to the ftrace_ops callback function. If the arch does not support it then it should pass NULL. If an arch can pass full regs, then it should define: ARCH_SUPPORTS_FTRACE_SAVE_REGS to 1 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20120702201821.019966811@goodmis.orgReviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

As the function tracer starts to get more features, the support for theses features will spread out throughout the different architectures over time. These features boil down to what each arch does in the mcount trampoline (the ftrace_caller). Currently there's two features that are not the same throughout the archs. 1) Support to stop function tracing before the callback 2) passing of the ftrace ops Both of these require placing an indirect function to support the features if the mcount trampoline does not. On a side note, for all architectures, when more than one callback is registered to the function tracer, an intermediate 'list' function is called by the mcount trampoline to iterate through the callbacks that are registered. Instead of making a separate function for each of these features, and requiring several indirect calls, just use the single 'list' function as the intermediate, to handle all cases. If an arch does not support the 'stop function tracing' or the passing of ftrace ops, just force it to use the list function that will handle the features required. This makes the code cleaner and simpler and removes a lot of #ifdefs in the code.

Currently the function trace callback receives only the ip and parent_ip of the function that it traced. It would be more powerful to also return the ops that registered the function as well. This allows the same function to act differently depending on what ftrace_ops registered it.

Dave Jones and others have hit and reported this bug (Sasha Levin) 18) Some drivers (b44 and b43legacy) on 64-bit machines stopped working because of how netdev_alloc_skb() was adjusted. Such drivers should now use alloc_skb() for obtaining bounce buffers. (Eric Dumazet) 19) atl1c mis-managed it's link state in that it stops the queue by hand on link down.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== I know that we're in fairly late stage to request pulls, but the IPVS people pinged me with little patches with oops fixes last week. One of them was recently introduced (during the 3.4 development cycle) while cleaning up the IPVS netns support. They are: * Fix one regression introduced in 3.4 while cleaning up the netns support for IPVS, from Julian Anastasov. * Fix one oops triggered due to resetting the conntrack attached to the skb instead of just putting it in the forward hook, from Lin Ming. This problem seems to be there since 2.6.37 according to Simon Horman. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When rpmsg drivers are built into the kernel, they must not initialize before the rpmsg bus does, otherwise they'd trigger a BUG() in drivers/base/driver.c line 169 (driver_register()). To fix that, and to stop depending on arbitrary linkage ordering of those built-in rpmsg drivers, we make the rpmsg bus initialize at subsys_initcall.

After commit 39f618b4 (3.4) "ipvs: reset ipvs pointer in netns" we can oops in ip_vs_dst_event on rmmod ip_vs because ip_vs_control_cleanup is called after the ipvs_core_ops subsys is unregistered and net->ipvs is NULL. Fix it by exiting early from ip_vs_dst_event if ipvs is NULL. It is safe because all services and dests for the net are already freed.

This patch addresses a kernel panic seen when setting up the interface. Specifically we see a NULL pointer dereference on the Tx descriptor cleanup path when enabling interrupts.

there are some out of bound accesses in netprio cgroup. now before accessing the dev->priomap.priomap array,we only check if the dev->priomap exist.and because we don't want to see additional bound checkings in fast path, so we should make sure that dev->priomap is null or array size of dev->priomap.priomap is equal to max_prioidx + 1; so in write_priomap logic,we should call extend_netdev_table when dev->priomap is null and dev->priomap.priomap_len < max_len. and in cgrp_create->update_netdev_tables logic,we should call extend_netdev_table only when dev->priomap exist and dev->priomap.priomap_len < max_len. and it's not needed to call update_netdev_tables in write_priomap, we can only allocate the net device's priomap which we change through net_prio.ifpriomap. this patch also add a return value for update_netdev_tables & extend_netdev_table, so when new_priomap is allocated failed, write_priomap will stop to access the priomap,and return -ENOMEM back to the userspace to tell the user what happend. Change From v3: 1. add rtnl protect when reading max_prioidx in write_priomap. 2. only call extend_netdev_table when map->priomap_len < max_len, this will make sure array size of dev->map->priomap always bigger than any prioidx. 3. add a function write_update_netdev_table to make codes clear. Change From v2: 1. protect extend_netdev_table by RTNL. 2. when extend_netdev_table failed,call dev_put to reduce device's refcount.

The commit 4197aa7b implements 64 bit per ring statistics. But the driver resets the 'total_bytes' and 'total_packets' from RX and TX rings in the RX and TX interrupt handlers to zero. This results in statistics being lost and user space reporting RX and TX statistics as zero. This patch addresses the issue by preventing the resetting of RX and TX ring statistics to zero.

As a result, we get a gpf when traversing the hashtable while a freed node corrupts part of the list. Nominally I would think that an mibalanced refcount was responsible for this, but I can't seem to find any obvious imbalance. What I did note however was that the two places where we create an association using sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE (__sctp_connect and sctp_sendmsg), have failure paths which free a newly created association after calling sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE. sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE brings us into the sctp_sf_do_prm_asoc path, which issues a SCTP_CMD_NEW_ASOC side effect, which in turn adds a new association to the aforementioned hash table. the sctp command interpreter that process side effects has not way to unwind previously processed commands, so freeing the association from the __sctp_connect or sctp_sendmsg error path would lead to a freed association remaining on this hash table. I've fixed this but modifying sctp_[un]hash_established to use hlist_del_init, which allows us to proerly use hlist_unhashed to check if the node is on a hashlist safely during a delete. That in turn alows us to safely call sctp_unhash_established in the __sctp_connect and sctp_sendmsg error paths before freeing them, regardles of what the associations state is on the hash list. I noted, while I was doing this, that the __sctp_unhash_endpoint was using hlist_unhsashed in a simmilar fashion, but never nullified any removed nodes pointers to make that function work properly, so I fixed that up in a simmilar fashion. I attempted to test this using a virtual guest running the SCTP_RR test from netperf in a loop while running the trinity fuzzer, both in a loop. I wasn't able to recreate the problem prior to this fix, nor was I able to trigger the failure after (neither of which I suppose is suprising). Given the trace above however, I think its likely that this is what we hit. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Reported-by: davej@redhat.com CC: davej@redhat.com CC: "David S.

The leap second rework unearthed another issue of inconsistent data. On timekeeping_resume() the timekeeper data is updated, but nothing calls timekeeping_update(), so now the update code in the timer interrupt sees stale values. This has been the case before those changes, but then the timer interrupt was using stale data as well so this went unnoticed for quite some time. Add the missing update call, so all the data is consistent everywhere. Reported-by: Andreas Schwab <schwab@linux-m68k.org> Reported-and-tested-by: "Rafael J.

Some desktop environments carefully save and restore the brightness settings from the previous boot. Unfortunately they don't all check to see if the range has changed. The end result is that they restore a brightness of 100/lots not 100/100. As the old driver and the non-free GMA36xx driver both use 0-100 we thus need to go back doing the same thing to avoid users getting a mysterious black screen after boot.
