commit 320661b0 upstream. Update to pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages in pcpu_alloc() is currently done without holding pcpu_lock. This can lead to bad updates to the variable. Add missing lock calls. Fixes: b539b87f ("percpu: implmeent pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages and chunk->nr_populated") Signed-off-by:

commit 28ea06c4 upstream. Commit 88ffbf3e switches to using rhashtables for glocks, hashing over the entire struct lm_lockname instead of its individual fields. On some architectures, struct lm_lockname contains a hole of uninitialized memory due to alignment rules, which now leads to incorrect hash values. Get rid of that hole. Signed-off-by:

commit 13603685 upstream. As reported by Max, the Windows 2008 R2 chkdsk utility expects VERIFY_16 to be supported, and does not handle the returned CHECK_CONDITION properly, resulting in an infinite loop. The kernel will log huge amounts of this error: kernel: TARGET_CORE[iSCSI]: Unsupported SCSI Opcode 0x8f, sending CHECK_CONDITION. Signed-off-by:

commit 6f8830f5 upstream. There's a rather long standing regression from the commit "libiscsi: Reduce locking contention in fast path" Depending on iSCSI target behavior, it's possible to hit the case in iscsi_complete_task where the task is still on a pending list (!list_empty(&task->running)). When that happens the task is removed from the list while holding the session back_lock, but other task list modification occur under the frwd_lock. That leads to linked list corruption and eventually a panicked system. Rather than back out the session lock split entirely, in order to try and keep some of the performance gains this patch adds another lock to maintain the task lists integrity. Major enterprise supported kernels have been backing out the lock split for while now, thanks to the efforts at IBM where a lab setup has the most reliable reproducer I've seen on this issue. This patch has been tested there successfully. Signed-off-by:

commit a04e54f2 upstream. The following fixes a divide by zero OOPs with TYPE_TAPE due to pscsi_tape_read_blocksize() failing causing a zero sd->sector_size being propigated up via dev_attrib.hw_block_size. It also fixes another long-standing bug where TYPE_TAPE and TYPE_MEDIMUM_CHANGER where using pscsi_create_type_other(), which does not call scsi_device_get() to take the device reference. Instead, rename pscsi_create_type_rom() to pscsi_create_type_nondisk() and use it for all cases. Finally, also drop a dump_stack() in pscsi_get_blocks() for non TYPE_DISK, which in modern target-core can get invoked via target_sense_desc_format() during CHECK_CONDITION. Reported-by:

commit 61eb2b43 upstream. Neil Brown pointed out a potential deadlock in raid 10 code with bio_split/chain. The raid1 code could have the same issue, but recent barrier rework makes it less likely to happen. The deadlock happens in below sequence: 1. generic_make_request(bio), this will set current->bio_list 2. raid10_make_request will split bio to bio1 and bio2 3. __make_request(bio1), wait_barrer, add underlayer disk bio to current->bio_list 4. __make_request(bio2), wait_barrer If raise_barrier happens between 3 & 4, since wait_barrier runs at 3, raise_barrier waits for IO completion from 3. And since raise_barrier sets barrier, 4 waits for raise_barrier. But IO from 3 can't be dispatched because raid10_make_request() doesn't finished yet. The solution is to adjust the IO ordering. Quotes from Neil: " It is much safer to: if (need to split) { split = bio_split(bio, ...) bio_chain(...) make_request_fn(split); generic_make_request(bio); } else make_request_fn(mddev, bio); This way we first process the initial section of the bio (in 'split') which will queue some requests to the underlying devices. These requests will be queued in generic_make_request. Then we queue the remainder of the bio, which will be added to the end of the generic_make_request queue. Then we return. generic_make_request() will pop the lower-level device requests off the queue and handle them first. Then it will process the remainder of the original bio once the first section has been fully processed. " Note, this only happens in read path. In write path, the bio is flushed to underlaying disks either by blk flush (from schedule) or offladed to raid1/10d. It's queued in current->bio_list. Cc: Coly Li <colyli@suse.de> Suggested-by:

Likewise, "make W=1 net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/verbs.o" never indicated any issue.

Linus Torvalds authored
commit 474c9015 upstream. gcc-7 has an "optimization" pass that completely screws up, and generates the code expansion for the (impossible) case of calling ilog2() with a zero constant, even when the code gcc compiles does not actually have a zero constant. And we try to generate a compile-time error for anybody doing ilog2() on a constant where that doesn't make sense (be it zero or negative). So now gcc7 will fail the build due to our sanity checking, because it created that constant-zero case that didn't actually exist in the source code. There's a whole long discussion on the kernel mailing about how to work around this gcc bug. The gcc people themselevs have discussed their "feature" in https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=72785 but it's all water under the bridge, because while it looked at one point like it would be solved by the time gcc7 was released, that was not to be. So now we have to deal with this compiler braindamage. And the only simple approach seems to be to just delete the code that tries to warn about bad uses of ilog2(). So now "ilog2()" will just return 0 not just for the value 1, but for any non-positive value too. It's not like I can recall anybody having ever actually tried to use this function on any invalid value, but maybe the sanity check just meant that such code never made it out in public. Reported-by:

commit 3a622346 upstream. The pm_runtime_put() we were using immediately released power on the device, which meant that we were generally turning the device off and on once per frame. In many profiles I've looked at, that added up to about 1% of CPU time, but this could get worse in the case of frequent rendering and readback (as may happen in X rendering). By keeping the device on until we've been idle for a couple of frames, we drop the overhead of runtime PM down to sub-.1%. Signed-off-by:

commit 457e67a7 upstream. The loop is scanning until the original max_ip (size of the BO), but we want to not examine any code after the PROG_END's delay slots. There was a block trying to do that, except that we had some early continue statements if the signal wasn't a PROG_END or a BRANCH. The failure mode would be that a valid shader is rejected because some undefined memory after the PROG_END slots is parsed as a branch and the rest of its setup is illegal. I haven't seen this in the wild, but valgrind was complaining when about this up in the userland simulator mode. Signed-off-by:

commit c236c8e9 upstream. While working on the futex code, I stumbled over this potential use-after-free scenario. Dmitry triggered it later with syzkaller. pi_mutex is a pointer into pi_state, which we drop the reference on in unqueue_me_pi(). So any access to that pointer after that is bad. Since other sites already do rt_mutex_unlock() with hb->lock held, see for example futex_lock_pi(), simply move the unlock before unqueue_me_pi(). Reported-by:

commit 44fee88c upstream. Subhransu reported that convert_art_to_tsc() isn't working for him. The ART to TSC relation is only set up for systems which use the refined TSC calibration. Systems with known TSC frequency (available via CPUID 15) are not using the refined calibration and therefor the ART to TSC relation is never established. Add the setup to the known frequency init path which skips ART calibration. The init code needs to be duplicated as for systems which use refined calibration the ART setup must be delayed until calibration has been done. The problem has been there since the ART support was introdduced, but only detected now because Subhransu tested the first time on hardware which has TSC frequency enumerated via CPUID 15. Note for stable: The conditional has changed from TSC_RELIABLE to TSC_KNOWN_FREQUENCY.

[ Upstream commit f209fa03 ] During a PCI error recovery, like the ones provoked by EEH in the ppc64 platform, all IO to the device must be blocked while the recovery is completed. Current 8250_pci implementation only suspends the port instead of detaching it, which doesn't prevent incoming accesses like TIOCMGET and TIOCMSET calls from reaching the device. Those end up racing with the EEH recovery, crashing it. Similar races were also observed when opening the device and when shutting it down during recovery. This patch implements a more robust IO blockage for the 8250_pci recovery by unregistering the port at the beginning of the procedure and re-adding it afterwards. Since the port is detached from the uart layer, we can be sure that no request will make through to the device during recovery. This is similar to the solution used by the JSM serial driver. I thank Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> for valuable input on this one over one year ago. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 89e364db ] synchronize_sched() is a heavy operation and calling it per each cache owned by a memory cgroup being destroyed may take quite some time. What is worse, it's currently called under the slab_mutex, stalling all works doing cache creation/destruction. Actually, there isn't much point in calling synchronize_sched() for each cache - it's enough to call it just once - after setting cpu_partial for all caches and before shrinking them. This way, we can also move it out of the slab_mutex, which we have to hold for iterating over the slab cache list.
