commit 10164c2a upstream. Fix driver new_id sysfs-attribute removal deadlock by making sure to not hold any locks that the attribute operations grab when removing the attribute. Specifically, usb_serial_deregister holds the table mutex when deregistering the driver, which includes removing the new_id attribute. This can lead to a deadlock as writing to new_id increments the attribute's active count before trying to grab the same mutex in usb_serial_probe. The deadlock can easily be triggered by inserting a sleep in usb_serial_deregister and writing the id of an unbound device to new_id during module unload. As the table mutex (in this case) is used to prevent subdriver unload during probe, it should be sufficient to only hold the lock while manipulating the usb-serial driver list during deregister. A racing probe will then either fail to find a matching subdriver or fail to get the corresponding module reference. Since v3.15-rc1 this also triggers the following lockdep warning: ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 3.15.0-rc2 #123 Tainted: G W ------------------------------------------------------- modprobe/190 is trying to acquire lock: (s_active#4){++++.+}, at: [<c0167aa0>] kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x4c/0x94 but task is already holding lock: (table_lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<bf004d84>] usb_serial_deregister+0x3c/0x78 [usbserial] which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (table_lock){+.+.+.}: [<c0075f84>] __lock_acquire+0x1694/0x1ce4 [<c0076de8>] lock_acquire+0xb4/0x154 [<c03af3cc>] _raw_spin_lock+0x4c/0x5c [<c02bbc24>] usb_store_new_id+0x14c/0x1ac [<bf007eb4>] new_id_store+0x68/0x70 [usbserial] [<c025f568>] drv_attr_store+0x30/0x3c [<c01690e0>] sysfs_kf_write+0x5c/0x60 [<c01682c0>] kernfs_fop_write+0xd4/0x194 [<c010881c>] vfs_write+0xbc/0x198 [<c0108e4c>] SyS_write+0x4c/0xa0 [<c000f880>] ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x48 -> #0 (s_active#4){++++.+}: [<c03a7a28>] print_circular_bug+0x68/0x2f8 [<c0076218>] __lock_acquire+0x1928/0x1ce4 [<c0076de8>] lock_acquire+0xb4/0x154 [<c0166b70>] __kernfs_remove+0x254/0x310 [<c0167aa0>] kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x4c/0x94 [<c0169fb8>] remove_files.isra.1+0x48/0x84 [<c016a2fc>] sysfs_remove_group+0x58/0xac [<c016a414>] sysfs_remove_groups+0x34/0x44 [<c02623b8>] driver_remove_groups+0x1c/0x20 [<c0260e9c>] bus_remove_driver+0x3c/0xe4 [<c026235c>] driver_unregister+0x38/0x58 [<bf007fb4>] usb_serial_bus_deregister+0x84/0x88 [usbserial] [<bf004db4>] usb_serial_deregister+0x6c/0x78 [usbserial] [<bf005330>] usb_serial_deregister_drivers+0x2c/0x4c [usbserial] [<bf016618>] usb_serial_module_exit+0x14/0x1c [sierra] [<c009d6cc>] SyS_delete_module+0x184/0x210 [<c000f880>] ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x48 other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(table_lock); lock(s_active#4); lock(table_lock); lock(s_active#4); *** DEADLOCK *** 1 lock held by modprobe/190: #0: (table_lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<bf004d84>] usb_serial_deregister+0x3c/0x78 [usbserial] stack backtrace: CPU: 0 PID: 190 Comm: modprobe Tainted: G W 3.15.0-rc2 #123 [<c0015e10>] (unwind_backtrace) from [<c0013728>] (show_stack+0x20/0x24) [<c0013728>] (show_stack) from [<c03a9a54>] (dump_stack+0x24/0x28) [<c03a9a54>] (dump_stack) from [<c03a7cac>] (print_circular_bug+0x2ec/0x2f8) [<c03a7cac>] (print_circular_bug) from [<c0076218>] (__lock_acquire+0x1928/0x1ce4) [<c0076218>] (__lock_acquire) from [<c0076de8>] (lock_acquire+0xb4/0x154) [<c0076de8>] (lock_acquire) from [<c0166b70>] (__kernfs_remove+0x254/0x310) [<c0166b70>] (__kernfs_remove) from [<c0167aa0>] (kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x4c/0x94) [<c0167aa0>] (kernfs_remove_by_name_ns) from [<c0169fb8>] (remove_files.isra.1+0x48/0x84) [<c0169fb8>] (remove_files.isra.1) from [<c016a2fc>] (sysfs_remove_group+0x58/0xac) [<c016a2fc>] (sysfs_remove_group) from [<c016a414>] (sysfs_remove_groups+0x34/0x44) [<c016a414>] (sysfs_remove_groups) from [<c02623b8>] (driver_remove_groups+0x1c/0x20) [<c02623b8>] (driver_remove_groups) from [<c0260e9c>] (bus_remove_driver+0x3c/0xe4) [<c0260e9c>] (bus_remove_driver) from [<c026235c>] (driver_unregister+0x38/0x58) [<c026235c>] (driver_unregister) from [<bf007fb4>] (usb_serial_bus_deregister+0x84/0x88 [usbserial]) [<bf007fb4>] (usb_serial_bus_deregister [usbserial]) from [<bf004db4>] (usb_serial_deregister+0x6c/0x78 [usbserial]) [<bf004db4>] (usb_serial_deregister [usbserial]) from [<bf005330>] (usb_serial_deregister_drivers+0x2c/0x4c [usbserial]) [<bf005330>] (usb_serial_deregister_drivers [usbserial]) from [<bf016618>] (usb_serial_module_exit+0x14/0x1c [sierra]) [<bf016618>] (usb_serial_module_exit [sierra]) from [<c009d6cc>] (SyS_delete_module+0x184/0x210) [<c009d6cc>] (SyS_delete_module) from [<c000f880>] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x48) Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <jhovold@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> [bwh: Backported to 3.2: adjust context] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit 1b17844b upstream. fixup_user_fault() is used by the futex code when the direct user access fails, and the futex code wants it to either map in the page in a usable form or return an error. It relied on handle_mm_fault() to map the page, and correctly checked the error return from that, but while that does map the page, it doesn't actually guarantee that the page will be mapped with sufficient permissions to be then accessed. So do the appropriate tests of the vma access rights by hand. [ Side note: arguably handle_mm_fault() could just do that itself, but we have traditionally done it in the caller, because some callers - notably get_user_pages() - have been able to access pages even when they are mapped with PROT_NONE. Maybe we should re-visit that design decision, but in the meantime this is the minimal patch. ] Found by Dave Jones running his trinity tool.

The T431s seems to be T430 hardware in a T440s case, using the T440s touchpad, with the same min/max issue. The X1 Carbon 3rd generation name says 2nd while it is a 3rd generation. The X1 and T431s share a PnPID with the T540p, but the reported ranges are closer to those of the T440s. HdG: Squashed 5 quirk patches into one. T431s + L440 + L540 are written by me, S1 Yoga and X1 are written by Benjamin Tissoires.

commit 5017b285 upstream. dmi_match() considers a substring match to be a successful match. This is not always sufficient to distinguish between DMI data for different systems. Add support for exact string matching using strcmp() in addition to the substring matching using strstr(). The specific use case in the i915 driver is to allow us to use an exact match for D510MO, without also incorrectly matching D510MOV: { .ident = "Intel D510MO", .matches = { DMI_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_VENDOR, "Intel"), DMI_EXACT_MATCH(DMI_BOARD_NAME, "D510MO"), }, } Signed-off-by: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Cc: <annndddrr@gmail.com> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Cornel Panceac <cpanceac@gmail.com> Acked-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit 8a4aeec8 upstream. The AHCI spec allows implementations to issue commands in tag order rather than FIFO order: 5.3.2.12 P:SelectCmd HBA sets pSlotLoc = (pSlotLoc + 1) mod (CAP.NCS + 1) or HBA selects the command to issue that has had the PxCI bit set to '1' longer than any other command pending to be issued. The result is that commands posted sequentially (time-wise) may play out of sequence when issued by hardware. This behavior has likely been hidden by drives that arrange for commands to complete in issue order. However, it appears recent drives (two from different vendors that we have found so far) inflict out-of-order completions as a matter of course. So, we need to take care to maintain ordered submission, otherwise we risk triggering a drive to fall out of sequential-io automation and back to random-io processing, which incurs large latency and degrades throughput. This issue was found in simple benchmarks where QD=2 seq-write performance was 30-50% *greater* than QD=32 seq-write performance. Tagging for -stable and making the change globally since it has a low risk-to-reward ratio. Also, word is that recent versions of an unnamed OS also does it this way now. So, drives in the field are already experienced with this tag ordering scheme.

commit f1c6bb2c upstream. A fl->fl_break_time of 0 has a special meaning to the lease break code that basically means "never break the lease". knfsd uses this to ensure that leases don't disappear out from under it. Unfortunately, the code in __break_lease can end up passing this value to wait_event_interruptible as a timeout, which prevents it from going to sleep at all. This makes __break_lease to spin in a tight loop and causes soft lockups. Fix this by ensuring that we pass a minimum value of 1 as a timeout instead. Cc: J.

commit 4adb6ab3 upstream. When we try to get 2^32-1 block of the file which has the extent (ee_block=2^32-2, ee_len=1) with FIBMAP ioctl, it causes BUG_ON in ext4_ext_put_gap_in_cache(). To avoid the problem, ext4_map_blocks() needs to check the file logical block number. ext4_ext_put_gap_in_cache() called via ext4_map_blocks() cannot handle 2^32-1 because the maximum file logical block number is 2^32-2. Note that ext4_ind_map_blocks() returns -EIO when the block number is invalid. So ext4_map_blocks() should also return the same errno.

commit d82b922a upstream. The powernow-k6 driver used to read the initial multiplier from the powernow register. However, there is a problem with this: * If there was a frequency transition before, the multiplier read from the register corresponds to the current multiplier. * If there was no frequency transition since reset, the field in the register always reads as zero, regardless of the current multiplier that is set using switches on the mainboard and that the CPU is running at. The zero value corresponds to multiplier 4.5, so as a consequence, the powernow-k6 driver always assumes multiplier 4.5. For example, if we have 550MHz CPU with bus frequency 100MHz and multiplier 5.5, the powernow-k6 driver thinks that the multiplier is 4.5 and bus frequency is 122MHz. The powernow-k6 driver then sets the multiplier to 4.5, underclocking the CPU to 450MHz, but reports the current frequency as 550MHz. There is no reliable way how to read the initial multiplier. I modified the driver so that it contains a table of known frequencies (based on parameters of existing CPUs and some common overclocking schemes) and sets the multiplier according to the frequency. If the frequency is unknown (because of unusual overclocking or underclocking), the user must supply the bus speed and maximum multiplier as module parameters. This patch should be backported to all stable kernels. If it doesn't apply cleanly, change it, or ask me to change it. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

commit e20e1d0a upstream. I found out that a system with k6-3+ processor is unstable during network server load. The system locks up or the network card stops receiving. The reason for the instability is the CPU frequency scaling. During frequency transition the processor is in "EPM Stop Grant" state. The documentation says that the processor doesn't respond to inquiry requests in this state. Consequently, coherency of processor caches and bus master devices is not maintained, causing the system instability. This patch flushes the cache during frequency transition. It fixes the instability. Other minor changes: * u64 invalue changed to unsigned long because the variable is 32-bit * move the logic to set the multiplier to a separate function powernow_k6_set_cpu_multiplier * preserve lower 5 bits of the powernow port instead of 4 (the voltage field has 5 bits) * mask interrupts when reading the multiplier, so that the port is not open during other activity (running other kernel code with the port open shouldn't cause any misbehavior, but we should better be safe and keep the port closed) This patch should be backported to all stable kernels. If it doesn't apply cleanly, change it, or ask me to change it. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

commit f64410ec upstream. This patch is based on an earlier patch by Eric Paris, he describes the problem below: "If an inode is accessed before policy load it will get placed on a list of inodes to be initialized after policy load. After policy load we call inode_doinit() which calls inode_doinit_with_dentry() on all inodes accessed before policy load. In the case of inodes in procfs that means we'll end up at the bottom where it does: /* Default to the fs superblock SID. */ isec->sid = sbsec->sid; if ((sbsec->flags & SE_SBPROC) && !S_ISLNK(inode->i_mode)) { if (opt_dentry) { isec->sclass = inode_mode_to_security_class(...) rc = selinux_proc_get_sid(opt_dentry, isec->sclass, &sid); if (rc) goto out_unlock; isec->sid = sid; } } Since opt_dentry is null, we'll never call selinux_proc_get_sid() and will leave the inode labeled with the label on the superblock. I believe a fix would be to mimic the behavior of xattrs. Look for an alias of the inode. If it can't be found, just leave the inode uninitialized (and pick it up later) if it can be found, we should be able to call selinux_proc_get_sid() ..." On a system exhibiting this problem, you will notice a lot of files in /proc with the generic "proc_t" type (at least the ones that were accessed early in the boot), for example: # ls -Z /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax | awk '{ print $4 " " $5 }' system_u:object_r:proc_t:s0 /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax However, with this patch in place we see the expected result: # ls -Z /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax | awk '{ print $4 " " $5 }' system_u:object_r:sysctl_kernel_t:s0 /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax Cc: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <pmoore@redhat.com> Acked-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit a94cdd1f upstream. In read_all_bytes, we do unsigned char i; ... bt->read_data[0] = BMC2HOST; bt->read_count = bt->read_data[0]; ... for (i = 1; i <= bt->read_count; i++) bt->read_data[i] = BMC2HOST; If bt->read_data[0] == bt->read_count == 255, we loop infinitely in the 'for' loop. Make 'i' an 'int' instead of 'char' to get rid of the overflow and finish the loop after 255 iterations every time.

commit 2c42be2d upstream. ft_del_tpg checks tpg->tport is set before unlinking the tpg from the tport when the tpg is being removed. Set this pointer in ft_tport_create, or the unlinking won't happen in ft_del_tpg and tport->tpg will reference a deleted object. This patch sets tpg->tport in ft_tport_create, because that's what ft_del_tpg checks, and is the only way to get back to the tport to clear tport->tpg. The bug was occuring when: - lport created, tport (our per-lport, per-provider context) is allocated. tport->tpg = NULL - tpg created - a PRLI is received. ft_tport_create is called, tpg is found and tport->tpg is set - tpg removed. ft_tpg is freed in ft_del_tpg. Since tpg->tport was not set, tport->tpg is not cleared and points at freed memory - Future calls to ft_tport_create return tport via first conditional, instead of searching for new tpg by calling ft_lport_find_tpg. tport->tpg is still invalid, and will access freed memory. see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1071340Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <agrover@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit b3b42ac2 upstream. The IRET instruction, when returning to a 16-bit segment, only restores the bottom 16 bits of the user space stack pointer. We have a software workaround for that ("espfix") for the 32-bit kernel, but it relies on a nonzero stack segment base which is not available in 32-bit mode. Since 16-bit support is somewhat crippled anyway on a 64-bit kernel (no V86 mode), and most (if not quite all) 64-bit processors support virtualization for the users who really need it, simply reject attempts at creating a 16-bit segment when running on top of a 64-bit kernel.

commit e39435ce upstream. I got a bug report yesterday from Laszlo Ersek in which he states that his kvm instance fails to suspend. Laszlo bisected it down to this commit 1cf7e9c6 ("virtio_blk: blk-mq support") where virtio-blk is converted to use the blk-mq infrastructure. After digging a bit, it became clear that the issue was with the queue drain. blk-mq tracks queue usage in a percpu counter, which is incremented on request alloc and decremented when the request is freed. The initial hunt was for an inconsistency in blk-mq, but everything seemed fine. In fact, the counter only returned crazy values when suspend was in progress. When a CPU is unplugged, the percpu counters merges that CPU state with the general state. blk-mq takes care to register a hotcpu notifier with the appropriate priority, so we know it runs after the percpu counter notifier. However, the percpu counter notifier only merges the state when the CPU is fully gone. This leaves a state transition where the CPU going away is no longer in the online mask, yet it still holds private values. This means that in this state, percpu_counter_sum() returns invalid results, and the suspend then hangs waiting for abs(dead-cpu-value) requests to complete which of course will never happen. Fix this by clearing the state earlier, so we never have a case where the CPU isn't in online mask but still holds private state. This bug has been there since forever, I guess we don't have a lot of users where percpu counters needs to be reliable during the suspend cycle.

commit dfccbb5e upstream. wait_task_zombie() first does EXIT_ZOMBIE->EXIT_DEAD transition and drops tasklist_lock. If this task is not the natural child and it is traced, we change its state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE for ->real_parent. The last transition is racy, this is even documented in 50b8d257 "ptrace: partially fix the do_wait(WEXITED) vs EXIT_DEAD->EXIT_ZOMBIE race". wait_consider_task() tries to detect this transition and clear ->notask_error but we can't rely on ptrace_reparented(), debugger can exit and do ptrace_unlink() before its sub-thread sets EXIT_ZOMBIE. And there is another problem which were missed before: this transition can also race with reparent_leader() which doesn't reset >exit_signal if EXIT_DEAD, assuming that this task must be reaped by someone else. So the tracee can be re-parented with ->exit_signal != SIGCHLD, and if /sbin/init doesn't use __WALL it becomes unreapable. Change reparent_leader() to update ->exit_signal even if EXIT_DEAD. Note: this is the simple temporary hack for -stable, it doesn't try to solve all problems, it will be reverted by the next changes.

commit 55f67141 upstream. When I decrease the value of nr_hugepage in procfs a lot, softlockup happens. It is because there is no chance of context switch during this process. On the other hand, when I allocate a large number of hugepages, there is some chance of context switch. Hence softlockup doesn't happen during this process. So it's necessary to add the context switch in the freeing process as same as allocating process to avoid softlockup. When I freed 12 TB hugapages with kernel-2.6.32-358.el6, the freeing process occupied a CPU over 150 seconds and following softlockup message appeared twice or more. $ echo 6000000 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages $ cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages 6000000 $ grep ^Huge /proc/meminfo HugePages_Total: 6000000 HugePages_Free: 6000000 HugePages_Rsvd: 0 HugePages_Surp: 0 Hugepagesize: 2048 kB $ echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages BUG: soft lockup - CPU#16 stuck for 67s!

However I confirmed that the amount of decreasing hugepages was directly proportional to the amount of required time. I measured required times on a smaller machine. It showed 130-145 hugepages decreased in a millisecond. Amount of decreasing Required time Decreasing rate hugepages (msec) (pages/msec) ------------------------------------------------------------ 10,000 pages == 20GB 70 - 74 135-142 30,000 pages == 60GB 208 - 229 131-144 It means decrement of 6TB hugepages will trigger softlockup with the default threshold 20sec, in this decreasing rate.

commit 57e68e9c upstream. A BUG_ON(!PageLocked) was triggered in mlock_vma_page() by Sasha Levin fuzzing with trinity. The call site try_to_unmap_cluster() does not lock the pages other than its check_page parameter (which is already locked). The BUG_ON in mlock_vma_page() is not documented and its purpose is somewhat unclear, but apparently it serializes against page migration, which could otherwise fail to transfer the PG_mlocked flag. This would not be fatal, as the page would be eventually encountered again, but NR_MLOCK accounting would become distorted nevertheless. This patch adds a comment to the BUG_ON in mlock_vma_page() and munlock_vma_page() to that effect. The call site try_to_unmap_cluster() is fixed so that for page != check_page, trylock_page() is attempted (to avoid possible deadlocks as we already have check_page locked) and mlock_vma_page() is performed only upon success. If the page lock cannot be obtained, the page is left without PG_mlocked, which is again not a problem in the whole unevictable memory design.
