commit 02125a82 upstream. __d_path() API is asking for trouble and in case of apparmor d_namespace_path() getting just that. The root cause is that when __d_path() misses the root it had been told to look for, it stores the location of the most remote ancestor in *root. Without grabbing references. Sure, at the moment of call it had been pinned down by what we have in *path. And if we raced with umount -l, we could have very well stopped at vfsmount/dentry that got freed as soon as prepend_path() dropped vfsmount_lock. It is safe to compare these pointers with pre-existing (and known to be still alive) vfsmount and dentry, as long as all we are asking is "is it the same address?". Dereferencing is not safe and apparmor ended up stepping into that. d_namespace_path() really wants to examine the place where we stopped, even if it's not connected to our namespace. As the result, it looked at ->d_sb->s_magic of a dentry that might've been already freed by that point. All other callers had been careful enough to avoid that, but it's really a bad interface - it invites that kind of trouble. The fix is fairly straightforward, even though it's bigger than I'd like: * prepend_path() root argument becomes const. * __d_path() is never called with NULL/NULL root. It was a kludge to start with. Instead, we have an explicit function - d_absolute_root(). Same as __d_path(), except that it doesn't get root passed and stops where it stops. apparmor and tomoyo are using it. * __d_path() returns NULL on path outside of root. The main caller is show_mountinfo() and that's precisely what we pass root for - to skip those outside chroot jail. Those who don't want that can (and do) use d_path(). * __d_path() root argument becomes const. Everyone agrees, I hope. * apparmor does *NOT* try to use __d_path() or any of its variants when it sees that path->mnt is an internal vfsmount. In that case it's definitely not mounted anywhere and dentry_path() is exactly what we want there. Handling of sysctl()-triggered weirdness is moved to that place. * if apparmor is asked to do pathname relative to chroot jail and __d_path() tells it we it's not in that jail, the sucker just calls d_absolute_path() instead. That's the other remaining caller of __d_path(), BTW. * seq_path_root() does _NOT_ return -ENAMETOOLONG (it's stupid anyway - the normal seq_file logics will take care of growing the buffer and redoing the call of ->show() just fine). However, if it gets path not reachable from root, it returns SEQ_SKIP. The only caller adjusted (i.e. stopped ignoring the return value as it used to do). Reviewed-by:

commit 1368edf0 upstream. Commit f5252e00 ("mm: avoid null pointer access in vm_struct via /proc/vmallocinfo") adds newly allocated vm_structs to the vmlist after it is fully initialised. Unfortunately, it did not check that __vmalloc_area_node() successfully populated the area. In the event of allocation failure, the vmalloc area is freed but the pointer to freed memory is inserted into the vmlist leading to a a crash later in get_vmalloc_info(). This patch adds a check for ____vmalloc_area_node() failure within __vmalloc_node_range. It does not use "goto fail" as in the previous error path as a warning was already displayed by __vmalloc_area_node() before it called vfree in its failure path. Credit goes to Luciano Chavez for doing all the real work of identifying exactly where the problem was. Signed-off-by:

commit 58a84aa9 upstream. Commit 70b50f94 ("mm: thp: tail page refcounting fix") keeps all page_tail->_count zero at all times. But the current kernel does not set page_tail->_count to zero if a 1GB page is utilized.

commit b6999b19 upstream. With the 3.2-rc kernel, IOMMU 2M pages in KVM works. But when I tried to use IOMMU 1GB pages in KVM, I encountered an oops and the 1GB page failed to be used. The root cause is that 1GB page allocation calls gup_huge_pud() while 2M page calls gup_huge_pmd. If compound pages are used and the page is a tail page, gup_huge_pmd() increases _mapcount to record tail page are mapped while gup_huge_pud does not do that. So when the mapped page is relesed, it will result in kernel oops because the page is not marked mapped. This patch add tail process for compound page in 1GB huge page which keeps the same process as 2M page. Reproduce like: 1. Add grub boot option: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=8 2. mount -t hugetlbfs -o pagesize=1G hugetlbfs /dev/hugepages 3. qemu-kvm -m 2048 -hda os-kvm.img -cpu kvm64 -smp 4 -mem-path /dev/hugepages -net none -device pci-assign,host=07:00.1 kernel BUG at mm/swap.c:114! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Call Trace: put_page+0x15/0x37 kvm_release_pfn_clean+0x31/0x36 kvm_iommu_put_pages+0x94/0xb1 kvm_iommu_unmap_memslots+0x80/0xb6 kvm_assign_device+0xba/0x117 kvm_vm_ioctl_assigned_device+0x301/0xa47 kvm_vm_ioctl+0x36c/0x3a2 do_vfs_ioctl+0x49e/0x4e4 sys_ioctl+0x5a/0x7c system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b RIP put_compound_page+0xd4/0x168 Signed-off-by:

This is required for useful runtime operation of the dummy DMA driver until we are able to figure out how to power up links and do hw_params() from DAPM. Sending to stable as without this the dummy driver is not terribly useful. Reported-by:

commit f1b21c52 upstream. On OMAP-L138 platform, EDMA event queue 0 should be used for audio transfers so that they are not starved by video data moving on event queue 1. Commit 48519f0a (ASoC: davinci: let platform data define edma queue numbers) had a side-effect of changing this behavior by making the driver actually honor the platform data passed. Fix this now by passing event queue 0 as the queue to be used for audio transfers. Signed-off-by:

commit fc084e0b upstream. There are some AC97 codec and board combinations that have been observed to take a very long time to respond after the cold reset has completed. In one case, more than 350 ms was required. To allow users to have sound on those platforms, we'll wait up to 500ms for the codec to become ready. As a board may have multiple codecs, with some faster than others to reset, we add a module parameter to inform the driver which codecs should be present. Reported-by:

commit 4c393a60 upstream. With Dmitry fsstress updates I've seen very reproducible crashes in xfs_attr_shortform_remove because xfs_attr_shortform_bytesfit claims that the attributes would not fit inline into the inode after removing an attribute. It turns out that we were operating on an inode with lots of delalloc extents, and thus an if_bytes values for the data fork that is larger than biggest possible on-disk storage for it which utterly confuses the code near the end of xfs_attr_shortform_bytesfit. Fix this by always allowing the current attribute fork, like we already do for the attr1 format, given that delalloc conversion will take care for moving either the data or attribute area out of line if it doesn't fit at that point - or making the point moot by merging extents at this point. Also document the function better, and clean up some loose bits. Reviewed-by:

commit 4dd2cb4a upstream. If we are doing synchronous inode reclaim we block the VM from making progress in memory reclaim. So if we encouter a flush locked inode promote it in the delwri list and wake up xfsbufd to write it out now. Without this we can get hangs of up to 30 seconds during workloads hitting synchronous inode reclaim. The scheme is copied from what we do for dquot reclaims. Reported-by:

commit 0bac71af upstream. Johannes' patch for "cfg80211: fix regulatory NULL dereference" broke user regulaotry hints and it did not address the fact that last_request was left populated even if the previous regulatory hint was stale due to the wiphy disappearing. Fix user reguluatory hints by only bailing out if for those regulatory hints where a request_wiphy is expected. The stale last_request considerations are addressed through the previous fixes on last_request where we reset the last_request to a static world regdom request upon reset_regdomains(). In this case though we further enhance the effect by simply restoring reguluatory settings completely. Cc: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by:

commit a042994d upstream. There is a theoretical race that if hit will trigger a crash. The race is between when we issue the first regulatory hint, regulatory_hint_core(), gets processed by the workqueue and between when the first device gets registered to the wireless core. This is not easy to reproduce but it was easy to do so through the regulatory simulator I have been working on. This is a port of the fix I implemented there [1].

commit 2cd1c8d4 upstream. Fix an outstanding issue that has been reported since 2.6.37.

Since we are running in batched mode (lazy) we don't actually set up the PTE mappings and the kmap_atomic is not done synchronously and ends up trying to dereference a page that has not been set. Looking at kmap_atomic_prot_pfn(), it uses 'arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode' and doing the same in kmap_atomic_prot() and __kunmap_atomic() makes the problem go away. Interestingly, commit b8bcfe99 ("x86/paravirt: remove lazy mode in interrupts") removed part of this to fix an interrupt issue - but it went to far and did not consider this scenario. Signed-off-by:

commit 1ef03890 upstream. Looks like on some Acer Aspire 1s with older bioses, reboot via bios fails. It works on my machine, (with BIOS version 0.3310) but not on some others (BIOS version 0.3309). There's a log of problems at: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=124136 This patch adds a different callback to the reboot quirk table, to allow rebooting via keybaord controller.

commit 9e686668 upstream. In commit f8924e77 ("x86: unify mp_bus_info"), the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of MP_bus_info were rearranged to match each other better. Unfortunately it introduced a regression: prior to that change we used to always set the mp_bus_not_pci bit, then clear it if we found a PCI bus. After it, we set mp_bus_not_pci for ISA buses, clear it for PCI buses, and leave it alone otherwise. In the cases of ISA and PCI, there's not much difference. But ISA is not the only non-PCI bus, so it's better to always set mp_bus_not_pci and clear it only for PCI. Without this change, Dan's Dell PowerEdge 4200 panics on boot with a log indicating interrupt routing trouble unless the "noapic" option is supplied. With this change, the machine boots reliably without "noapic". Fixes http://bugs.debian.org/586494Reported-bisected-and-tested-by:

commit 4cecf6d4 upstream. (Added the missing signed-off-by line) In hundreds of days, the __cycles_2_ns calculation in sched_clock has an overflow. cyc * per_cpu(cyc2ns, cpu) exceeds 64 bits, causing the final value to become zero. We can solve this without losing any precision. We can decompose TSC into quotient and remainder of division by the scale factor, and then use this to convert TSC into nanoseconds. Signed-off-by:

commit 158886cd upstream. When system enters suspend, xHCI driver clears command ring by writing zero to all the TRBs. However, this also writes zero to the Link TRB, and the ring is mangled. This may cause driver accesses wrong memory address and the result is unpredicted. When clear the command ring, keep the last Link TRB intact, only clear its cycle bit. This should fix the "command ring full" issue reported by Oliver Neukum. This should be backported to stable kernels as old as 2.6.37, since the commit 89821320 "xhci: Fix command ring replay after resume" is merged. Signed-off-by:
