When FS-Cache allocates an object, the following sequence of events can occur: -->fscache_alloc_object() -->cachefiles_alloc_object() [via cache->ops->alloc_object] <--[returns new object] -->fscache_attach_object() <--[failed] -->cachefiles_put_object() [via cache->ops->put_object] -->fscache_object_destroy() -->fscache_objlist_remove() -->rb_erase() to remove the object from fscache_object_list. resulting in a crash in the rbtree code. The problem is that the object is only added to fscache_object_list on the success path of fscache_attach_object() where it calls fscache_objlist_add(). So if fscache_attach_object() fails, the object won't have been added to the objlist rbtree. We do, however, unconditionally try to remove the object from the tree. Thanks to NeilBrown for finding this and suggesting this solution.

This has been this way for years, and every time I stumble across it I lose my lunch. After coming across it for the nth time in the Coverity results, I had to overcome the bystander effect and do something about it. This ignores the 79 column limit in favor of making it look like C instead of gibberish. The correct thing to do here would be to lose some of the indentation by breaking this function up into several smaller ones. I might do that at some point if I have the stomach to look at this again. (Also some of those overlong ternary operations would likely be more readable as regular if's) Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@fedoraproject.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

If directory is fragmented, readdir() read its dirfrags one by one. After reading all dirfrags, the corresponding dentries are sorted in (frag_t, off) order in the dcache. If dentries of a directory are all cached, __dcache_readdir() can use the cached dentries to satisfy readdir syscall. But when checking if a given dentry is after the position of readdir, __dcache_readdir() compares numerical value of frag_t directly. This is wrong, it should use ceph_frag_compare().

This is not a buffer overflow in the traditional sense: we don't overflow any *kernel* buffers, but we do mis-count the amount of data we copy back to user space for the SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL case. In particular, if the user buffer is too small to hold everything, and *if* there is a continuation line at just the right place, we can end up giving the user more data than he asked for. The reason is that we first count up the number of bytes all the log records contains, then we walk the records again until we've skipped the records at the beginning that won't fit, and then we walk the rest of the records and copy them to the user space buffer. And in between that "skip the initial records that won't fit" and the "copy the records that *will* fit to user space", we reset the 'prev' variable that contained the record information for the last record not copied. That meant that when we started copying to user space, we now had a different character count than what we had originally calculated in the first record walk-through. The fix is to simply not clear the 'prev' flags value (in both cases where we had the same logic: syslog_print_all and kmsg_dump_get_buffer: the latter is used for pstore-like dumping) Reported-and-tested-by: Debabrata Banerjee <dbanerje@akamai.com> Acked-by: Kay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

We possiblly detect EEH errors during reboot, particularly in kexec path, but it's impossible for device drivers and EEH core to handle or recover them properly. The patch registers one reboot notifier for EEH and disable EEH subsystem during reboot. That means the EEH errors is going to be cleared by hardware reset or second kernel during early stage of PCI probe.

When doing reset in order to recover the affected PE, we issue hot reset on PE primary bus if it's not root bus. Otherwise, we issue hot or fundamental reset on root port or PHB accordingly. For the later case, we didn't cover the situation where PE only includes root port and it potentially causes kernel crash upon EEH error to the PE. The patch reworks the logic of EEH reset to improve the code readability and also avoid the kernel crash.

perf is failing to resolve symbols in the VDSO. A while (1) gettimeofday() loop shows: 93.99% [vdso] [.] 0x00000000000005e0 3.12% test [.] 00000037.plt_call.gettimeofday@@GLIBC_2.18 2.81% test [.] main The reason for this is that we are linking our VDSO shared libraries at 1MB, which is a little weird. Even though this is uncommon, Alan points out that it is valid and we should probably fix perf userspace. Regardless, I can't see a reason why we are doing this. The code is all position independent and we never rely on the VDSO ending up at 1M (and we never place it there on 64bit tasks). Changing our link address to 0x0 fixes perf VDSO symbol resolution: 73.18% [vdso] [.] 0x000000000000060c 12.39% [vdso] [.] __kernel_gettimeofday 3.58% test [.] 00000037.plt_call.gettimeofday@@GLIBC_2.18 2.94% [vdso] [.] __kernel_datapage_offset 2.90% test [.] main We still have some local symbol resolution issues that will be fixed in a subsequent patch.

Archs like ppc64 doesn't do tlb flush in set_pte/pmd functions when using a hash table MMU for various reasons (the flush is handled as part of the PTE modification when necessary). ppc64 thus doesn't implement flush_tlb_range for hash based MMUs. Additionally ppc64 require the tlb flushing to be batched within ptl locks. The reason to do that is to ensure that the hash page table is in sync with linux page table. We track the hpte index in linux pte and if we clear them without flushing hash and drop the ptl lock, we can have another cpu update the pte and can end up with duplicate entry in the hash table, which is fatal. We also want to keep set_pte_at simpler by not requiring them to do hash flush for performance reason. We do that by assuming that set_pte_at() is never *ever* called on a PTE that is already valid. This was the case until the NUMA code went in which broke that assumption. Fix that by introducing a new pair of helpers to set _PAGE_NUMA in a way similar to ptep/pmdp_set_wrprotect(), with a generic implementation using set_pte_at() and a powerpc specific one using the appropriate mechanism needed to keep the hash table in sync.

pte_update() is a powerpc-ism used to change the bits of a PTE when the access permission is being restricted (a flush is potentially needed). It uses atomic operations on when needed and handles the hash synchronization on hash based processors. It is currently only used to clear PTE bits and so the current implementation doesn't provide a way to also set PTE bits. The new _PAGE_NUMA bit, when set, is actually restricting access so it must use that function too, so this change adds the ability for pte_update() to also set bits. We will use this later to set the _PAGE_NUMA bit.

Rev3 of the PCI Express Base Specification defines a Supported Link Speeds Vector where the bit definitions within this field are: Bit 0 - 2.5 GT/s Bit 1 - 5.0 GT/s Bit 2 - 8.0 GT/s This vector definition is used by the platform firmware to export the maximum and current link speeds of the PCI bus via the "ibm,pcie-link-speed-stats" device-tree property.

Commit 5091f0c9 (powerpc/pseries: Fix PCIE link speed endian issue) introduced a regression on the PCI link speed detection using the device-tree property. The ibm,pcie-link-speed-stats property is composed of two 32-bit integers, the first one being the maxinum link speed and the second the current link speed. The changes introduced by the aforementioned commit are considering just the first integer. Fix this issue by changing how the property is accessed, using the helper functions to properly access the array of values. The explicit byte swapping is not needed anymore here, since it's done by the helper functions.

Kevin Hao authored
Currently, of_match_node compares each given match against all node's compatible strings with of_device_is_compatible. To achieve multiple compatible strings per node with ordering from specific to generic, this requires given matches to be ordered from specific to generic. For most of the drivers this is not true and also an alphabetical ordering is more sane there. Therefore, this patch introduces a function to match each of the node's compatible strings against all given compatible matches without type and name first, before checking the next compatible string. This implies that node's compatibles are ordered from specific to generic while given matches can be in any order. If we fail to find such a match entry, then fall-back to the old method in order to keep compatibility.

Merge branches 'irq-urgent-for-linus' and 'irq-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull irq update from Thomas Gleixner: "Fix from the urgent branch: a trivial oneliner adding the missing Kconfig dependency curing build failures which have been discovered by several build robots. The update in the irq-core branch provides a new function in the irq/devres code, which is a prerequisite for driver developers to get rid of boilerplate code all over the place. Not a bugfix, but it has zero impact on the current kernel due to the lack of users. It's simpler to provide the infrastructure to interested parties via your tree than fulfilling the wishlist of driver maintainers on which particular commit or tag this should be based on" * 'irq-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: genirq: Add missing irq_to_desc export for CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=n * 'irq-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: genirq: Add devm_request_any_context_irq()

Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "The following trilogy of patches brings you: - fix for a long standing math overflow issue with HZ < 60 - an onliner fix for a corner case in the dreaded tick broadcast mechanism affecting a certain range of AMD machines which are infested with the infamous automagic C1E power control misfeature - a fix for one of the ARM platforms which allows the kernel to proceed and boot instead of stupidly panicing for no good reason. The patch is slightly larger than necessary, but it's less ugly than the alternative 5 liner" * 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: tick: Clear broadcast pending bit when switching to oneshot clocksource: Kona: Print warning rather than panic time: Fix overflow when HZ is smaller than 60

Merge tag 'trace-fixes-v3.14-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull twi tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "Two urgent fixes in the tracing utility. The first is a fix for the way the ring buffer stores timestamps. After a restructure of the code was done, the ring buffer timestamp logic missed the fact that the first event on a sub buffer is to have a zero delta, as the full timestamp is stored on the sub buffer itself. But because the delta was not cleared to zero, the timestamp for that event will be calculated as the real timestamp + the delta from the last timestamp. This can skew the timestamps of the events and have them say they happened when they didn't really happen. That's bad. The second fix is for modifying the function graph caller site. When the stop machine was removed from updating the function tracing code, it missed updating the function graph call site location. It is still modified as if it is being done via stop machine. But it's not. This can lead to a GPF and kernel crash if the function graph call site happens to lie between cache lines and one CPU is executing it while another CPU is doing the update. It would be a very hard condition to hit, but the result is severe enough to have it fixed ASAP" * tag 'trace-fixes-v3.14-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ftrace/x86: Use breakpoints for converting function graph caller ring-buffer: Fix first commit on sub-buffer having non-zero delta
