Merge branch 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace Pull kernel thread signal handling fix from Eric Biederman: "I overlooked the fact that kernel threads are created with all signals set to SIG_IGN, and accidentally caused a regression in cifs and drbd when replacing force_sig with send_sig. This is my fix for that regression. I add a new function allow_kernel_signal which allows kernel threads to receive signals sent from the kernel, but continues to ignore all signals sent from userspace. This ensures the user space interface for cifs and drbd remain the same. These kernel threads depend on blocking networking calls which block until something is received or a signal is pending. Making receiving of signals somewhat necessary for these kernel threads. Perhaps someday we can cleanup those interfaces and remove allow_kernel_signal. If not allow_kernel_signal is pretty trivial and clearly documents what is going on so I don't think we will mind carrying it" * 'siginfo-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: signal: Allow cifs and drbd to receive their terminating signals

The maximum key description size is 4095. Commit f771fde8 ("keys: Simplify key description management") inadvertantly reduced that to 255 and made sizes between 256 and 4095 work weirdly, and any size whereby size & 255 == 0 would cause an assertion in __key_link_begin() at the following line: BUG_ON(index_key->desc_len == 0); This can be fixed by simply increasing the size of desc_len in struct keyring_index_key to a u16. Note the argument length test in keyutils only checked empty descriptions and descriptions with a size around the limit (ie. 4095) and not for all the values in between, so it missed this. This has been addressed and https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/keyutils.git/commit/?id=066bf56807c26cd3045a25f355b34c1d8a20a5aa now exhaustively tests all possible lengths of type, description and payload and then some.

My recent to change to only use force_sig for a synchronous events wound up breaking signal reception cifs and drbd. I had overlooked the fact that by default kthreads start out with all signals set to SIG_IGN. So a change I thought was safe turned out to have made it impossible for those kernel thread to catch their signals. Reverting the work on force_sig is a bad idea because what the code was doing was very much a misuse of force_sig. As the way force_sig ultimately allowed the signal to happen was to change the signal handler to SIG_DFL. Which after the first signal will allow userspace to send signals to these kernel threads. At least for wake_ack_receiver in drbd that does not appear actively wrong. So correct this problem by adding allow_kernel_signal that will allow signals whose siginfo reports they were sent by the kernel through, but will not allow userspace generated signals, and update cifs and drbd to call allow_kernel_signal in an appropriate place so that their thread can receive this signal. Fixing things this way ensures that userspace won't be able to send signals and cause problems, that it is clear which signals the threads are expecting to receive, and it guarantees that nothing else in the system will be affected. This change was partly inspired by similar cifs and drbd patches that added allow_signal.

When a Tx timestamp is requested, a pointer to the skb is stored in the ravb_tstamp_skb struct. This was done without an skb_get. There exists the possibility that the skb could be freed by ravb_tx_free (when ravb_tx_free is called from ravb_start_xmit) before the timestamp was processed, leading to a use-after-free bug. Use skb_get when filling a ravb_tstamp_skb struct, and add appropriate frees/consumes when a ravb_tstamp_skb struct is freed.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== flow_offload hardware priority fixes This patchset contains two updates for the flow_offload users: 1) Pass the major tc priority to drivers so they do not have to lshift it. This is a preparation patch for the fix coming in patch #2. 2) Set the hardware priority from the netfilter basechain priority, some drivers break when using the existing hardware priority number that is set to zero. v5: fix patch 2/2 to address a clang warning and to simplify the priority mapping. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch adds initial support for offloading basechains using the priority range from 1 to 65535. This is restricting the netfilter priority range to 16-bit integer since this is what most drivers assume so far from tc. It should be possible to extend this range of supported priorities later on once drivers are updated to support for 32-bit integer priorities.

tc transparently maps the software priority number to hardware. Update it to pass the major priority which is what most drivers expect. Update drivers too so they do not need to lshift the priority field of the flow_cls_common_offload object. The stmmac driver is an exception, since this code assumes the tc software priority is fine, therefore, lshift it just to be conservative.

In i2400m_barker_db_init(), 'options_orig' is allocated through kstrdup() to hold the original command line options. Then, the options are parsed. However, if an error occurs during the parsing process, 'options_orig' is not deallocated, leading to a memory leak bug. To fix this issue, free 'options_orig' before returning the error.

The driver name gets exposed in sysfs under /sys/bus/pci/drivers so it should look like other devices. Change it to be common format (instead of "Cavium PTP"). This is a trivial fix that was observed by accident because Debian kernels were building this driver into kernel (bug).

There's no need to wait until a completion is received to unmap TX descriptor buffers that have been passed to the hypervisor. Instead unmap it when the hypervisor call has completed. This patch avoids the possibility that a buffer will not be unmapped because a TX completion is lost or mishandled. Reported-by: Abdul Haleem <abdhalee@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Tested-by: Devesh K.
