commit 3f1f3320 upstream. Stephane thought the perf_cpu_context::active_pmu name confusing and suggested using 'unique_pmu' instead. This pointer is a pointer to a 'random' pmu sharing the cpuctx instance, therefore limiting a for_each_pmu loop to those where cpuctx->unique_pmu matches the pmu we get a loop over unique cpuctx instances.

commit f169007b upstream. If we pass fd of memory.usage_in_bytes of cgroup A to cgroup.event_control of cgroup B, then we won't get memory usage notification from A but B! What's worse, if A and B are in different mount hierarchy, we'll end up accessing NULL pointer! Disallow this kind of invalid usage. Signed-off-by:

This bug fix is only for stable branches older than 3.10. The bug was fixed upstream by commit 2768935a ('sfc: reuse pages to avoid DMA mapping/unmapping costs'), but that change is totally unsuitable for stable. Commit b590ace0 ('sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() in the presence of swiotlb') added an explicit page_offset member to struct efx_rx_buffer, which must be set consistently with the u.page and dma_addr fields. However, it failed to add the necessary assignment in efx_resurrect_rx_buffer(). It also did not correct the calculation of efx_rx_buffer::dma_addr in efx_resurrect_rx_buffer(), which assumes that DMA-mapping a page will result in a page-aligned DMA address (exactly what swiotlb violates). Add the assignment of efx_rx_buffer::page_offset and change the calculation of dma_addr to make use of it. Signed-off-by:

commit ece793fc upstream. We try to linearize part of the skb when the number of iov is greater than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This is not enough since each single vector may occupy more than one pages, so zerocopy_sg_fromiovec() may still fail and may break the guest network. Solve this problem by calculate the pages needed for iov before trying to do zerocopy and switch to use copy instead of zerocopy if it needs more than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This is done through introducing a new helper to count the pages for iov, and call uarg->callback() manually when switching from zerocopy to copy to notify vhost. We can do further optimization on top. This bug were introduced from b92946e2 (macvtap: zerocopy: validate vectors before building skb). Cc: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:

commit 481f2d4f upstream. The USB hub driver's event handler contains a check to catch SuperSpeed devices that transitioned into the SS.Inactive state and tries to fix them with a reset. It decides whether to do a plain hub port reset or call the usb_reset_device() function based on whether there was a device attached to the port. However, there are device/hub combinations (found with a JetFlash Transcend mass storage stick (8564:1000) on the root hub of an Intel LynxPoint PCH) which can transition to the SS.Inactive state on disconnect (and stay there long enough for the host to notice). In this case, above-mentioned reset check will call usb_reset_device() on the stale device data structure. The kernel will send pointless LPM control messages to the no longer connected device address and can even cause several 5 second khubd stalls on some (buggy?) host controllers, before finally accepting the device's fate amongst a flurry of error messages. This patch makes the choice of reset dependent on the port status that has just been read from the hub in addition to the existence of an in-kernel data structure for the device, and only proceeds with the more extensive reset if both are valid.

commit 776164c1 upstream. debugfs_remove_recursive() is wrong, 1. it wrongly assumes that !list_empty(d_subdirs) means that this dir should be removed. This is not that bad by itself, but: 2. if d_subdirs does not becomes empty after __debugfs_remove() it gives up and silently fails, it doesn't even try to remove other entries. However ->d_subdirs can be non-empty because it still has the already deleted !debugfs_positive() entries. 3. simple_release_fs() is called even if __debugfs_remove() fails. Suppose we have dir1/ dir2/ file2 file1 and someone opens dir1/dir2/file2. Now, debugfs_remove_recursive(dir1/dir2) succeeds, and dir1/dir2 goes away. But debugfs_remove_recursive(dir1) silently fails and doesn't remove this directory. Because it tries to delete (the already deleted) dir1/dir2/file2 again and then fails due to "Avoid infinite loop" logic. Test-case: #!/bin/sh cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing echo 'p:probe/sigprocmask sigprocmask' >> kprobe_events sleep 1000 < events/probe/sigprocmask/id & echo -n >| kprobe_events [ -d events/probe ] && echo "ERR!! failed to rm probe" And after that it is not possible to create another probe entry. With this patch debugfs_remove_recursive() skips !debugfs_positive() files although this is not strictly needed. The most important change is that it does not try to make ->d_subdirs empty, it simply scans the whole list(s) recursively and removes as much as possible.

commit 9c5da09d upstream. An rmdir pushes css's ref count to zero. However, if the associated directory is open at the time, the dentry ref count is non-zero. If the fd for this directory is then passed into perf_event_open, it does a css_get(). This bounces the ref count back up from zero. This is a problem by itself. But what makes it turn into a crash is the fact that we end up doing an extra dput, since we perform a dput when css_put sees the ref count go down to zero. css_tryget() does not fall into that trap. So, we use that instead.

[ Upstream commit 21af8107 ] Meelis Roos reports a crash in esp_free_lun_tag() in the presense of a disk which has died. The issue is that when we issue an autosense command, we do so by hijacking the original command that caused the check-condition. When we do so we clear out the ent->tag[] array when we issue it via find_and_prep_issuable_command(). This is so that the autosense command is forced to be issued non-tagged. That is problematic, because it is the value of ent->tag[] which determines whether we issued the original scsi command as tagged vs. non-tagged (see esp_alloc_lun_tag()). And that, in turn, is what trips up the sanity checks in esp_free_lun_tag(). That function needs the original ->tag[] values in order to free up the tag slot properly. Fix this by remembering the original command's tag values, and having esp_alloc_lun_tag() and esp_free_lun_tag() use them. Reported-by:

[ Upstream commit 5a0068de ] Recently grabbed this report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1005567 Of an issue in which the bonding driver, with an attached vlan encountered the following errors when bond0 was taken down and back up: dummy1: promiscuity touches roof, set promiscuity failed. promiscuity feature of device might be broken. The error occurs because, during __bond_release_one, if we release our last slave, we take on a random mac address and issue a NETDEV_CHANGEADDR notification. With an attached vlan, the vlan may see that the vlan and bond mac address were in sync, but no longer are. This triggers a call to dev_uc_add and dev_set_rx_mode, which enables IFF_PROMISC on the bond device. Then, when we complete __bond_release_one, we use the current state of the bond flags to determine if we should decrement the promiscuity of the releasing slave. But since the bond changed promiscuity state during the release operation, we incorrectly decrement the slave promisc count when it wasn't in promiscuous mode to begin with, causing the above error Fix is pretty simple, just cache the bonding flags at the start of the function and use those when determining the need to set promiscuity. This is also needed for the ALLMULTI flag CC: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> CC: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net> CC: Mark Wu <wudxw@linux.vnet.ibm.com> CC: "David S.

[ Upstream commit 2811ebac ] In the following scenario the socket is corked: If the first UDP packet is larger then the mtu we try to append it to the write queue via ip6_ufo_append_data. A following packet, which is smaller than the mtu would be appended to the already queued up gso-skb via plain ip6_append_data. This causes random memory corruptions. In ip6_ufo_append_data we also have to be careful to not queue up the same skb multiple times. So setup the gso frame only when no first skb is available. This also fixes a shortcoming where we add the current packet's length to cork->length but return early because of a packet > mtu with dontfrag set (instead of sutracting it again).

[ Upstream commit 703133de ] If local fragmentation is allowed, then ip_select_ident() and ip_select_ident_more() need to generate unique IDs to ensure correct defragmentation on the peer. For example, if IPsec (tunnel mode) has to encrypt large skbs that have local_df bit set, then all IP fragments that belonged to different ESP datagrams would have used the same identificator. If one of these IP fragments would get lost or reordered, then peer could possibly stitch together wrong IP fragments that did not belong to the same datagram. This would lead to a packet loss or data corruption. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 95ee6208 ] Alan Chester reported an issue with IPv6 on SCTP that IPsec traffic is not being encrypted, whereas on IPv4 it is. Setting up an AH + ESP transport does not seem to have the desired effect: SCTP + IPv4: 22:14:20.809645 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto AH (51), length 116) 192.168.0.2 > 192.168.0.5: AH(spi=0x00000042,sumlen=16,seq=0x1): ESP(spi=0x00000044,seq=0x1), length 72 22:14:20.813270 IP (tos 0x2,ECT(0), ttl 64, id 0, offset 0, flags [DF], proto AH (51), length 340) 192.168.0.5 > 192.168.0.2: AH(spi=0x00000043,sumlen=16,seq=0x1): SCTP + IPv6: 22:31:19.215029 IP6 (class 0x02, hlim 64, next-header SCTP (132) payload length: 364) fe80::222:15ff:fe87:7fc.3333 > fe80::92e6:baff:fe0d:5a54.36767: sctp 1) [INIT ACK] [init tag: 747759530] [rwnd: 62464] [OS: 10] [MIS: 10] Moreover, Alan says: This problem was seen with both Racoon and Racoon2. Other people have seen this with OpenSwan. When IPsec is configured to encrypt all upper layer protocols the SCTP connection does not initialize. After using Wireshark to follow packets, this is because the SCTP packet leaves Box A unencrypted and Box B believes all upper layer protocols are to be encrypted so it drops this packet, causing the SCTP connection to fail to initialize. When IPsec is configured to encrypt just SCTP, the SCTP packets are observed unencrypted. In fact, using `socat sctp6-listen:3333 -` on one end and transferring "plaintext" string on the other end, results in cleartext on the wire where SCTP eventually does not report any errors, thus in the latter case that Alan reports, the non-paranoid user might think he's communicating over an encrypted transport on SCTP although he's not (tcpdump ... -X): ... 0x0030: 5d70 8e1a 0003 001a 177d eb6c 0000 0000 ]p.......}.l.... 0x0040: 0000 0000 706c 6169 6e74 6578 740a 0000 ....plaintext... Only in /proc/net/xfrm_stat we can see XfrmInTmplMismatch increasing on the receiver side. Initial follow-up analysis from Alan's bug report was done by Alexey Dobriyan. Also thanks to Vlad Yasevich for feedback on this. SCTP has its own implementation of sctp_v6_xmit() not calling inet6_csk_xmit(). This has the implication that it probably never really got updated along with changes in inet6_csk_xmit() and therefore does not seem to invoke xfrm handlers. SCTP's IPv4 xmit however, properly calls ip_queue_xmit() to do the work. Since a call to inet6_csk_xmit() would solve this problem, but result in unecessary route lookups, let us just use the cached flowi6 instead that we got through sctp_v6_get_dst(). Since all SCTP packets are being sent through sctp_packet_transmit(), we do the route lookup / flow caching in sctp_transport_route(), hold it in tp->dst and skb_dst_set() right after that. If we would alter fl6->daddr in sctp_v6_xmit() to np->opt->srcrt, we possibly could run into the same effect of not having xfrm layer pick it up, hence, use fl6_update_dst() in sctp_v6_get_dst() instead to get the correct source routed dst entry, which we assign to the skb. Also source address routing example from 62503411 ("sctp: fix sctp to work with ipv6 source address routing") still works with this patch! Nevertheless, in RFC5095 it is actually 'recommended' to not use that anyway due to traffic amplification [1]. So it seems we're not supposed to do that anyway in sctp_v6_xmit(). Moreover, if we overwrite the flow destination here, the lower IPv6 layer will be unable to put the correct destination address into IP header, as routing header is added in ipv6_push_nfrag_opts() but then probably with wrong final destination. Things aside, result of this patch is that we do not have any XfrmInTmplMismatch increase plus on the wire with this patch it now looks like: SCTP + IPv6: 08:17:47.074080 IP6 2620:52:0:102f:7a2b:cbff:fe27:1b0a > 2620:52:0:102f:213:72ff:fe32:7eba: AH(spi=0x00005fb4,seq=0x1): ESP(spi=0x00005fb5,seq=0x1), length 72 08:17:47.074264 IP6 2620:52:0:102f:213:72ff:fe32:7eba > 2620:52:0:102f:7a2b:cbff:fe27:1b0a: AH(spi=0x00003d54,seq=0x1): ESP(spi=0x00003d55,seq=0x1), length 296 This fixes Kernel Bugzilla 24412. This security issue seems to be present since 2.6.18 kernels. Lets just hope some big passive adversary in the wild didn't have its fun with that. lksctp-tools IPv6 regression test suite passes as well with this patch.

[ Upstream commit 88362ad8 ] This was originally reported in [1] and posted by Neil Horman [2], he said: Fix up a missed null pointer check in the asconf code. If we don't find a local address, but we pass in an address length of more than 1, we may dereference a NULL laddr pointer. Currently this can't happen, as the only users of the function pass in the value 1 as the addrcnt parameter, but its not hot path, and it doesn't hurt to check for NULL should that ever be the case. The callpath from sctp_asconf_mgmt() looks okay. But this could be triggered from sctp_setsockopt_bindx() call with SCTP_BINDX_REM_ADDR and addrcnt > 1 while passing all possible addresses from the bind list to SCTP_BINDX_REM_ADDR so that we do *not* find a single address in the association's bind address list that is not in the packed array of addresses. If this happens when we have an established association with ASCONF-capable peers, then we could get a NULL pointer dereference as we only check for laddr == NULL && addrcnt == 1 and call later sctp_make_asconf_update_ip() with NULL laddr. BUT: this actually won't happen as sctp_bindx_rem() will catch such a case and return with an error earlier. As this is incredably unintuitive and error prone, add a check to catch at least future bugs here. As Neil says, its not hot path.

commit 1cf389df upstream. Under heavy (DLPAR?) stress, we tripped this panic() in arch/powerpc/kernel/iommu.c::iommu_init_table(): page = alloc_pages_node(nid, GFP_ATOMIC, get_order(sz)); if (!page) panic("iommu_init_table: Can't allocate %ld bytes\n", sz); Before the panic() we got a page allocation failure for an order-2 allocation. There appears to be memory free, but perhaps not in the ATOMIC context. I looked through all the call-sites of iommu_init_table() and didn't see any obvious reason to need an ATOMIC allocation. Most call-sites in fact have an explicit GFP_KERNEL allocation shortly before the call to iommu_init_table(), indicating we are not in an atomic context. There is some indirection for some paths, but I didn't see any locks indicating that GFP_KERNEL is inappropriate. With this change under the same conditions, we have not been able to reproduce the panic. Signed-off-by:

commit 8f21bd00 upstream. The csum_partial_copy_generic() function saves the PowerPC non-volatile r14, r15, and r16 registers for the main checksum-and-copy loop. Unfortunately, it fails to restore them upon error exit from this loop, which results in silent corruption of these registers in the presumably rare event of an access exception within that loop. This commit therefore restores these register on error exit from the loop. Signed-off-by:

commit d9813c36 upstream. The csum_partial_copy_generic() uses register r7 to adjust the remaining bytes to process. Unfortunately, r7 also holds a parameter, namely the address of the flag to set in case of access exceptions while reading the source buffer. Lacking a quantum implementation of PowerPC, this commit instead uses register r9 to do the adjusting, leaving r7's pointer uncorrupted. Signed-off-by:

commit eb2addd4 upstream. Hi, my Huawei 3G modem has an embedded Smart Card reader which causes trouble when the modem is being detected (a bunch of "<warn> (ttyUSBx): open blocked by driver for more than 7 seconds!" in messages.log). This trivial patch corrects the problem for me. The modem identifies itself as "12d1:1406 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. E1750" in lsusb although the description on the body says "Model E173u-1" Signed-off-by:

commit 7f42ec39 upstream. Many NILFS2 users were reported about strange file system corruption (for example): NILFS: bad btree node (blocknr=185027): level = 0, flags = 0x0, nchildren = 768 NILFS error (device sda4): nilfs_bmap_last_key: broken bmap (inode number=11540) But such error messages are consequence of file system's issue that takes place more earlier. Fortunately, Jerome Poulin <jeromepoulin@gmail.com> and Anton Eliasson <devel@antoneliasson.se> were reported about another issue not so recently. These reports describe the issue with segctor thread's crash: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000004c83 IP: nilfs_end_page_io+0x12/0xd0 [nilfs2] Call Trace: nilfs_segctor_do_construct+0xf25/0x1b20 [nilfs2] nilfs_segctor_construct+0x17b/0x290 [nilfs2] nilfs_segctor_thread+0x122/0x3b0 [nilfs2] kthread+0xc0/0xd0 ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 These two issues have one reason. This reason can raise third issue too. Third issue results in hanging of segctor thread with eating of 100% CPU. REPRODUCING PATH: One of the possible way or the issue reproducing was described by Jermoe me Poulin <jeromepoulin@gmail.com>: 1. init S to get to single user mode. 2. sysrq+E to make sure only my shell is running 3. start network-manager to get my wifi connection up 4. login as root and launch "screen" 5. cd /boot/log/nilfs which is a ext3 mount point and can log when NILFS dies. 6. lscp | xz -9e > lscp.txt.xz 7. mount my snapshot using mount -o cp=3360839,ro /dev/vgUbuntu/root /mnt/nilfs 8. start a screen to dump /proc/kmsg to text file since rsyslog is killed 9. start a screen and launch strace -f -o find-cat.log -t find /mnt/nilfs -type f -exec cat {} > /dev/null \; 10. start a screen and launch strace -f -o apt-get.log -t apt-get update 11. launch the last command again as it did not crash the first time 12. apt-get crashes 13. ps aux > ps-aux-crashed.log 13. sysrq+W 14. sysrq+E wait for everything to terminate 15. sysrq+SUSB Simplified way of the issue reproducing is starting kernel compilation task and "apt-get update" in parallel. REPRODUCIBILITY: The issue is reproduced not stable [60% - 80%]. It is very important to have proper environment for the issue reproducing. The critical conditions for successful reproducing: (1) It should have big modified file by mmap() way. (2) This file should have the count of dirty blocks are greater that several segments in size (for example, two or three) from time to time during processing. (3) It should be intensive background activity of files modification in another thread. INVESTIGATION: First of all, it is possible to see that the reason of crash is not valid page address: NILFS [nilfs_segctor_complete_write]:2100 bh->b_count 0, bh->b_blocknr 13895680, bh->b_size 13897727, bh->b_page 0000000000001a82 NILFS [nilfs_segctor_complete_write]:2101 segbuf->sb_segnum 6783 Moreover, value of b_page (0x1a82) is 6786. This value looks like segment number. And b_blocknr with b_size values look like block numbers. So, buffer_head's pointer points on not proper address value.

Then, dirty blocks are gathered for every dirty file, prepared for write and submitted by means of nilfs_segbuf_submit_bh() call. Finally, it takes place complete write phase after calling nilfs_end_bio_write() on the block layer. Buffers/pages are marked as not dirty on final phase and processed files removed from the list of dirty files. It is possible to see that we had three prepare_write and submit_bio phases before segbuf_wait and complete_write phase. Moreover, segments compete between each other for dirty blocks because on every iteration of segments processing dirty buffer_heads are added in several lists of payload_buffers: [SEGMENT 6784]: bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880218bcdf50 [SEGMENT 6785]: bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880222cc7ee8 The next pointer is the same but prev pointer has changed. It means that buffer_head has next pointer from one list but prev pointer from another. Such modification can be made several times. And, finally, it can be resulted in various issues: (1) segctor hanging, (2) segctor crashing, (3) file system metadata corruption. FIX: This patch adds: (1) setting of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_segctor_prepare_write() for every proccessed dirty block; (2) checking of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() and nilfs_lookup_dirty_node_buffers(); (3) clearing of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_segctor_complete_write(), nilfs_abort_logs(), nilfs_forget_buffer(), nilfs_clear_dirty_page().

commit 0d1862ea upstream. In the flexcan_chip_start() function first the flexcan core is going through the soft reset sequence, then the RX FIFO is enabled. With the hardware is put into FIFO mode, message buffers 1...7 are reserved by the FIFO engine. The remaining message buffers are in reset default values. This patch removes the bogus initialization of the message buffers, as it causes an imprecise external abort on imx6. Reported-by:
