commit 7ac512aa upstream. cachefiles_determine_cache_security() is expected to return with a security override in place. However, if set_create_files_as() fails, we fail to do this. In this case, we should just reinstate the security override that was set by the caller. Furthermore, if set_create_files_as() fails, we should dispose of the new credentials we were in the process of creating. Signed-off-by:

commit 93a59d75 upstream. James Grossmann [1] reported that p54 spews out confusing messages instead of preventing the mayhem from happening. the reason is that "p54: generate channel list dynamically" is not perfect. It didn't discard incomplete channel data sets and therefore p54 advertised to support them as well.

commit 34441427 upstream. Originally, commit d899bf7b ("procfs: provide stack information for threads") attempted to introduce a new feature for showing where the threadstack was located and how many pages are being utilized by the stack. Commit c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage on NOMMU") was applied to fix the NO_MMU case. Commit 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack information for threads on 64-bit") was applied to fix a bug in ia32 executables being loaded. Commit 9ebd4eba ("procfs: fix /proc/<pid>/stat stack pointer for kernel threads") was applied to fix a bug which had kernel threads printing a userland stack address. Commit 1306d603 ('proc: partially revert "procfs: provide stack information for threads"') was then applied to revert the stack pages being used to solve a significant performance regression. This patch nearly undoes the effect of all these patches. The reason for reverting these is it provides an unusable value in field 28. For x86_64, a fork will result in the task->stack_start value being updated to the current user top of stack and not the stack start address. This unpredictability of the stack_start value makes it worthless. That includes the intended use of showing how much stack space a thread has. Other architectures will get different values. As an example, ia64 gets 0. The do_fork() and copy_process() functions appear to treat the stack_start and stack_size parameters as architecture specific. I only partially reverted c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage on NOMMU") . If I had completely reverted it, I would have had to change mm/Makefile only build pagewalk.o when CONFIG_PROC_PAGE_MONITOR is configured. Since I could not test the builds without significant effort, I decided to not change mm/Makefile. I only partially reverted 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack information for threads on 64-bit") . I left the KSTK_ESP() change in place as that seemed worthwhile. Signed-off-by:

commit 1306d603 upstream. Commit d899bf7b (procfs: provide stack information for threads) introduced to show stack information in /proc/{pid}/status. But it cause large performance regression. Unfortunately /proc/{pid}/status is used ps command too and ps is one of most important component. Because both to take mmap_sem and page table walk are heavily operation. If many process run, the ps performance is, [before d899bf7b] % perf stat ps >/dev/null Performance counter stats for 'ps': 4090.435806 task-clock-msecs # 0.032 CPUs 229 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec 0 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec 234 page-faults # 0.000 M/sec 8587565207 cycles # 2099.425 M/sec 9866662403 instructions # 1.149 IPC 3789415411 cache-references # 926.409 M/sec 30419509 cache-misses # 7.437 M/sec 128.859521955 seconds time elapsed [after d899bf7b] % perf stat ps > /dev/null Performance counter stats for 'ps': 4305.081146 task-clock-msecs # 0.028 CPUs 480 context-switches # 0.000 M/sec 2 CPU-migrations # 0.000 M/sec 237 page-faults # 0.000 M/sec 9021211334 cycles # 2095.480 M/sec 10605887536 instructions # 1.176 IPC 3612650999 cache-references # 839.160 M/sec 23917502 cache-misses # 5.556 M/sec 152.277819582 seconds time elapsed Thus, this patch revert it. Fortunately /proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/smaps provide almost same information. we can use it. Commit d899bf7b introduced two features: 1) Add the annotattion of [thread stack: xxxx] mark to /proc/{pid}/task/{tid}/maps. 2) Add StackUsage field to /proc/{pid}/status. I only revert (2), because I haven't seen (1) cause regression. Signed-off-by:

commit e0873344 upstream. There is a race in the inotify add/rm watch code. A task can find and remove a mark which doesn't have all of it's references. This can result in a use after free/double free situation. Task A Task B ------------ ----------- inotify_new_watch() allocate a mark (refcnt == 1) add it to the idr inotify_rm_watch() inotify_remove_from_idr() fsnotify_put_mark() refcnt hits 0, free take reference because we are on idr [at this point it is a use after free] [time goes on] refcnt may hit 0 again, double free The fix is to take the reference BEFORE the object can be found in the idr.

commit 1c5250d6 upstream. The imx CTS trigger level is left at its reset value that is 32 chars. Since the RX FIFO has 32 entries, when CTS is raised, the FIFO already is full. However, some serial port devices first empty their TX FIFO before stopping when CTS is raised, resulting in lost chars. This patch sets the trigger level lower so that other chars arrive after CTS is raised, there is still room for 16 of them.

commit 3d694380 upstream. When we made serverino the default, we trusted that the field sent by the server in the "uniqueid" field was actually unique. It turns out that it isn't reliably so. Samba, in particular, will just put the st_ino in the uniqueid field when unix extensions are enabled. When a share spans multiple filesystems, it's quite possible that there will be collisions. This is a server bug, but when the inodes in question are a directory (as is often the case) and there is a collision with the root inode of the mount, the result is a kernel panic on umount. Fix this by checking explicitly for directory inodes with the same uniqueid. If that is the case, then we can assume that using server inode numbers will be a problem and that they should be disabled. Fixes Samba bugzilla 7407 Signed-off-by:

commit 0fe1ac48 upstream. Anton Blanchard found that large POWER systems would occasionally crash in the exception exit path when profiling with perf_events. The symptom was that an interrupt would occur late in the exit path when the MSR[RI] (recoverable interrupt) bit was clear. Interrupts should be hard-disabled at this point but they were enabled. Because the interrupt was not recoverable the system panicked. The reason is that the exception exit path was calling perf_event_do_pending after hard-disabling interrupts, and perf_event_do_pending will re-enable interrupts. The simplest and cleanest fix for this is to use the same mechanism that 32-bit powerpc does, namely to cause a self-IPI by setting the decrementer to 1. This means we can remove the tests in the exception exit path and raw_local_irq_restore. This also makes sure that the call to perf_event_do_pending from timer_interrupt() happens within irq_enter/irq_exit. (Note that calling perf_event_do_pending from timer_interrupt does not mean that there is a possible 1/HZ latency; setting the decrementer to 1 ensures that the timer interrupt will happen immediately, i.e. within one timebase tick, which is a few nanoseconds or 10s of nanoseconds.)

commit 4a6018f7 upstream. Ordinarily, application using hugetlbfs will create mappings with reserves. For shared mappings, these pages are reserved before mmap() returns success and for private mappings, the caller process is guaranteed and a child process that cannot get the pages gets killed with sigbus. An application that uses MAP_NORESERVE gets no reservations and mmap() will always succeed at the risk the page will not be available at fault time. This might be used for example on very large sparse mappings where the developer is confident the necessary huge pages exist to satisfy all faults even though the whole mapping cannot be backed by huge pages. Unfortunately, if an allocation does fail, VM_FAULT_OOM is returned to the fault handler which proceeds to trigger the OOM-killer. This is unhelpful. Even without hugetlbfs mounted, a user using mmap() can trivially trigger the OOM-killer because VM_FAULT_OOM is returned (will provide example program if desired - it's a whopping 24 lines long). It could be considered a DOS available to an unprivileged user. This patch alters hugetlbfs to kill a process that uses MAP_NORESERVE where huge pages were not available with SIGBUS instead of triggering the OOM killer. This change affects hugetlb_cow() as well. I feel there is a failure case in there, but I didn't create one. It would need a fairly specific target in terms of the faulting application and the hugepage pool size. The hugetlb_no_page() path is much easier to hit but both might as well be closed. Signed-off-by:

commit ccc2d97c upstream. commit 2783ef23 moved the initialisation of saddr and daddr after pskb_may_pull() to avoid a potential data corruption. Unfortunately also placing it after the short packet and bad checksum error paths, where these variables are used for logging. The result is bogus output like [92238.389505] UDP: short packet: From 2.0.0.0:65535 23715/178 to 0.0.0.0:65535 Moving the saddr and daddr initialisation above the error paths, while still keeping it after the pskb_may_pull() to keep the fix from commit 2783ef23.

(cherry picked from commit e65c7f33d75e977350ca350573d93c517ec02776) Previously it was unconditionally used on all Sibyte family SOCs. The M3 bug has to be handled in the TLB exception handler which is extremly performance sensitive, so this modification is expected to deliver around 2-3% performance improvment. This is important as required changes to the M3 workaround will make it more costly. Signed-off-by:

commit 77a42297 upstream. There's nastyness in the way we currently handle barriers (and discards): They're effectively filesystem commands, but they get processed as BLOCK_PC commands. Unfortunately BLOCK_PC commands are taken by SCSI to be SG_IO commands and the issuer expects to see and handle any returned errors, however trivial. This leads to a huge problem, because the block layer doesn't expect this to happen and any trivially retryable error on a barrier causes an immediate I/O error to the filesystem. The only real way to hack around this is to take the usual class of offending errors (unit attentions) and make them all retryable in the case of a REQ_HARDBARRIER. A correct fix would involve a rework of the entire block and SCSI submit system, and so is out of scope for a quick fix. Cc: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> Signed-off-by:

commit c213e140 upstream. Some arrays are giving I/O errors with ext3 filesystems when SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE gets a UNIT_ATTENTION. What is happening is that these commands have no retries, so the UNIT_ATTENTION causes the barrier to fail. We should be enable retries here to clear any transient error and allow the barrier to succeed. Signed-off-by:

commit 5447ed6c upstream. In the scsi_debug driver, the virtual_gb option ignores the sector_size, implicitly assuming that is 512 bytes. So if 'virtual_gb=1 sector_size=4096' the result is an 8 GB (virtual) disk. Signed-off-by:

commit 96b1f96d upstream. This fixes a regression introduced with this commit: commit d3305f34 Author: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu> Date: Thu Aug 20 15:10:58 2009 -0500 [SCSI] libiscsi: don't increment cmdsn if cmd is not sent in 2.6.32. When I moved the hdr->cmdsn after init_task, I added a bug when header digests are used. The problem is that the LLD may calculate the header digest in init_task, so if we then set the cmdsn after the init_task call we change what the digest will be calculated by the target.

commit 70b25f89 upstream. blk_abort_request() expects queue lock to be held by the caller. Grab it before calling the function. Lack of this synchronization led to infinite loop on corrupt q->timeout_list. Signed-off-by:

commit 1c6fe036 upstream. commit 672917dc ("cpuidle: menu governor: reduce latency on exit") added an optimization, where the analysis on the past idle period moved from the end of idle, to the beginning of the new idle. Unfortunately, this optimization had a bug where it zeroed one key variable for new use, that is needed for the analysis. The fix is simple, zero the variable after doing the work from the previous idle. During the audit of the code that found this issue, another issue was also found; the ->measured_us data structure member is never set, a local variable is always used instead. Signed-off-by:
