commit bad6a185 upstream. In some rare randconfig builds, we can end up with ASYMMETRIC_PUBLIC_KEY_SUBTYPE enabled but CRYPTO_AKCIPHER disabled, which fails to link because of the reference to crypto_alloc_akcipher: crypto/built-in.o: In function `public_key_verify_signature': :(.text+0x110e4): undefined reference to `crypto_alloc_akcipher' This adds a Kconfig 'select' statement to ensure the dependency is always there.

commit 51b07f30 upstream. Some careless idiot(*) wrote crap code in commit 1a3e8f3d ("xfs: convert inode cache lookups to use RCU locking") back in late 2010, and so xfs_iflush_cluster checks the wrong inode for whether it is still valid under RCU protection. Fix it to lock and check the correct inode. (*) Careless-idiot: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Discovered-by:

commit b1438f47 upstream. When a failure due to an inode buffer occurs, the error handling fails to abort the inode writeback correctly. This can result in the inode being reclaimed whilst still in the AIL, leading to use-after-free situations as well as filesystems that cannot be unmounted as the inode log items left in the AIL never get removed. Fix this by ensuring fatal errors from xfs_imap_to_bp() result in the inode flush being aborted correctly. Reported-by:

commit f7dcdf5f upstream. The function batadv_iv_ogm_orig_add_if allocates new buffers for bcast_own and bcast_own_sum. It is expected that these buffers are unchanged in case either bcast_own or bcast_own_sum couldn't be resized. But the error handling of this function frees the already resized buffer for bcast_own when the allocation of the new bcast_own_sum buffer failed. This will lead to an invalid memory access when some code will try to access bcast_own. Instead the resized new bcast_own buffer has to be kept. This will not lead to problems because the size of the buffer was only increased and therefore no user of the buffer will try to access bytes outside of the new buffer.

commit e7387da5 upstream. Commit 0b89e9aa (cpuidle: delay enabling interrupts until all coupled CPUs leave idle) rightfully fixed a regression by letting the coupled idle state framework to handle local interrupt enabling when the CPU is exiting an idle state. The current code checks if the idle state is coupled and, if so, it will let the coupled code to enable interrupts. This way, it can decrement the ready-count before handling the interrupt. This mechanism prevents the other CPUs from waiting for a CPU which is handling interrupts. But the check is done against the state index returned by the back end driver's ->enter functions which could be different from the initial index passed as parameter to the cpuidle_enter_state() function. entered_state = target_state->enter(dev, drv, index); [ ... ] if (!cpuidle_state_is_coupled(drv, entered_state)) local_irq_enable(); [ ... ] If the 'index' is referring to a coupled idle state but the 'entered_state' is *not* coupled, then the interrupts are enabled again. All CPUs blocked on the sync barrier may busy loop longer if the CPU has interrupts to handle before decrementing the ready-count. That's consuming more energy than saving.

commit 897fba11 upstream. Wrong return code was being returned on SMB3 rmdir of non-empty directory. For SMB3 (unlike for cifs), we attempt to delete a directory by set of delete on close flag on the open. Windows clients set this flag via a set info (SET_FILE_DISPOSITION to set this flag) which properly checks if the directory is empty. With this patch on smb3 mounts we correctly return "DIRECTORY NOT EMPTY" on attempts to remove a non-empty directory. Signed-off-by:

commit 255f0e7c upstream. During boot, MST hotplugs are generally expected (even if no physical hotplugging occurs) and result in DRM's connector topology changing. This means that using num_connector from the current mode configuration can lead to the number of connectors changing under us. This can lead to some nasty scenarios in fbcon: - We allocate an array to the size of dev->mode_config.num_connectors. - MST hotplug occurs, dev->mode_config.num_connectors gets incremented. - We try to loop through each element in the array using the new value of dev->mode_config.num_connectors, and end up going out of bounds since dev->mode_config.num_connectors is now larger then the array we allocated. fb_helper->connector_count however, will always remain consistent while we do a modeset in fb_helper. Note: This is just polish for 4.7, Dave Airlie's drm_connector refcounting fixed these bugs for real. But it's good enough duct-tape for stable kernel backporting, since backporting the refcounting changes is way too invasive. Signed-off-by:

commit 14a3842a upstream. During boot time, MST devices usually send a ton of hotplug events irregardless of whether or not any physical hotplugs actually occurred. Hotplugs mean connectors being created/destroyed, and the number of DRM connectors changing under us. This isn't a problem if we use fb_helper->connector_count since we only set it once in the code, however if we use num_connector from struct drm_mode_config we risk it's value changing under us. On top of that, there's even a chance that dev->mode_config.num_connector != fb_helper->connector_count. If the number of connectors happens to increase under us, we'll end up using the wrong array size for memcpy and start writing beyond the actual length of the array, occasionally resulting in kernel panics. Note: This is just polish for 4.7, Dave Airlie's drm_connector refcounting fixed these bugs for real.

commit 2e636d5e upstream. Vikram reported that his ARM64 compiler managed to 'optimize' away the preempt_count manipulations in code like: preempt_enable_no_resched(); put_user(); preempt_disable(); Irrespective of that fact that that is horrible code that should be fixed for many reasons, it does highlight a deficiency in the generic preempt_count manipulators. As it is never right to combine/elide preempt_count manipulations like this. Therefore sprinkle some volatile in the two generic accessors to ensure the compiler is aware of the fact that the preempt_count is observed outside of the regular program-order view and thus cannot be optimized away like this. x86; the only arch not using the generic code is not affected as we do all this in asm in order to use the segment base per-cpu stuff.

commit ad67b437 upstream. b84106b4 ("PCI: Disable IO/MEM decoding for devices with non-compliant BARs") disabled BAR sizing for BARs 0-5 of devices that don't comply with the PCI spec. But it didn't do anything for expansion ROM BARs, so we still try to size them, resulting in warnings like this on Broadwell-EP: pci 0000:ff:12.0: BAR 6: failed to assign [mem size 0x00000001 pref] Move the non-compliant BAR check from __pci_read_base() up to pci_read_bases() so it applies to the expansion ROM BAR as well as to BARs 0-5. Note that direct callers of __pci_read_base(), like sriov_init(), will now bypass this check. We haven't had reports of devices with broken SR-IOV BARs yet.

commit 1c447116 upstream. Some eMMCs set the partition switch timeout too low. Now typically eMMCs are considered a critical component (e.g. because they store the root file system) and consequently are expected to be reliable. Thus we can neglect the use case where eMMCs can't switch reliably and we might want a lower timeout to facilitate speedy recovery. Although we could employ a quirk for the cards that are affected (if we could identify them all), as described above, there is little benefit to having a low timeout, so instead simply set a minimum timeout. The minimum is set to 300ms somewhat arbitrarily - the examples that have been seen had a timeout of 10ms but were sometimes taking 60-70ms. Signed-off-by:

commit 093108cb upstream. Currently c4iw_peer_abort_intr() does not wake up the waiter if the endpoint state indicates we're using MPAv2 and we're currently trying to connect. This was introduced with commit 7c0a33d6 ("RDMA/cxgb4: Don't wakeup threads for MPAv2") However, this original fix is flawed because it introduces a race that can cause a deadlock of the iwarp stack. Here is the race: ->local side sets up an active offload connection. ->local side sends MPA_START request. ->peer sends MPA_START response. ->local side ingress cpl thread begins processing the MPA_START response, but before it changes the state from MPA_REQ_SENT to FPDU_MODE: ->peer sends a RST which results in a ABORT_REQ_RSS. This triggers peer_abort_intr() which sees the state in MPA_REQ_SENT and since mpa_rev is 2, it will avoid waking up the endpoint with -ECONNRESET, assuming the stack will re-attempt the connection using MPAv1. ->Meanwhile, the cpl thread moves the state to FPDU_MODE and calls c4iw_modify_rc_qp() which calls rdma_init() which sends a RI_WR/INIT WR to firmware. But since HW sent an abort, FW correctly drops the RI_WR/INIT WR. ->So the cpl thread is stuck waiting for a reply and cannot process the ABORT_REQ_RSS cpl sitting in its input queue. Thus everything comes to a halt because no more ingress cpls are processed by the stack... The correct fix for the issue is to always do the wake up in c4iw_abort_intr() but reinitialize the wait object in c4iw_reconnect().

commit 59643d15 upstream. If the size passed to ring_buffer_resize() is greater than MAX_LONG - BUF_PAGE_SIZE then the DIV_ROUND_UP() will return zero.

Then we convert to the number of buffer pages needed. nr_page = DIV_ROUND_UP(size, BUF_PAGE_SIZE) but this time size is 18446744073709551360 and 2^64 - (18446744073709551360 + 4080 - 1) = -3823 Thus it overflows and the resulting number is less than 4080, which makes 3823 / 4080 = 0 an nr_pages is set to this. As we already checked against the minimum that nr_pages may be, this causes the logic to fail as well, and we crash the kernel. There's no reason to have the two DIV_ROUND_UP() (that's just result of historical code changes), clean up the code and fix this bug.

commit 9b94a8fb upstream. The size variable to change the ring buffer in ftrace is a long. The nr_pages used to update the ring buffer based on the size is int. On 64 bit machines this can cause an overflow problem. For example, the following will cause the ring buffer to crash: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo 10 > buffer_size_kb # echo 8556384240 > buffer_size_kb Then you get the warning of: WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 318 at kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c:1527 rb_update_pages+0x22f/0x260 Which is: RB_WARN_ON(cpu_buffer, nr_removed); Note each ring buffer page holds 4080 bytes. This is because: 1) 10 causes the ring buffer to have 3 pages. (10kb requires 3 * 4080 pages to hold) 2) (2^31 / 2^10 + 1) * 4080 = 8556384240 The value written into buffer_size_kb is shifted by 10 and then passed to ring_buffer_resize(). 8556384240 * 2^10 = 8761737461760 3) The size passed to ring_buffer_resize() is then divided by BUF_PAGE_SIZE which is 4080. 8761737461760 / 4080 = 2147484672 4) nr_pages is subtracted from the current nr_pages (3) and we get: 2147484669. This value is saved in a signed integer nr_pages_to_update 5) 2147484669 is greater than 2^31 but smaller than 2^32, a signed int turns into the value of -2147482627 6) As the value is a negative number, in update_pages_handler() it is negated and passed to rb_remove_pages() and 2147482627 pages will be removed, which is much larger than 3 and it causes the warning because not all the pages asked to be removed were removed.

commit ab4a92e6 upstream. When emulating a jalr instruction with rd == $0, the code in isBranchInstr was incorrectly writing to GPR $0 which should actually always remain zeroed. This would lead to any further instructions emulated which use $0 operating on a bogus value until the task is next context switched, at which point the value of $0 in the task context would be restored to the correct zero by a store in SAVE_SOME.

commit 4d46a67a upstream. The lazy cache flushing implemented in the MIPS kernel suffers from a race condition that is exposed by do_set_pte() in mm/memory.c. A pre-condition is a file-system that writes to the page from the CPU in its readpage method and then calls flush_dcache_page(). One example is ubifs. Another pre-condition is that the dcache flush is postponed in __flush_dcache_page(). Upon a page fault for an executable mapping not existing in the page-cache, the following will happen: 1. Write to the page 2. flush_dcache_page 3. flush_icache_page 4. set_pte_at 5. update_mmu_cache (commits the flush of a dcache-dirty page) Between steps 4 and 5 another thread can hit the same page and it will encounter a valid pte. Because the data still is in the L1 dcache the CPU will fetch stale data from L2 into the icache and execute garbage. This fix moves the commit of the cache flush to step 3 to close the race window. It also reduces the amount of flushes on non-executable mappings because we never enter __flush_dcache_page() for non-aliasing CPUs. Regressions can occur in drivers that mistakenly relies on the flush_dcache_page() in get_user_pages() for DMA operations.

As part of this clean-up, DDW mechanism was modified to read the device configuration address from eeh_dev struct. As a consequence, now if we disable EEH mechanism on kernel command-line for example, the DDW mechanism will fail, generating a kernel oops by dereferencing a NULL pointer (which turns to be the eeh_dev pointer). This patch just changes the configuration address calculation on DDW functions to a manual calculation based on pci_dn members instead of using eeh_dev-based address. No functional changes were made. This was tested on pSeries, both in PHyp and qemu guest. Fixes: 39baadbf ("powerpc/eeh: Remove eeh information from pci_dn") Reviewed-by:

commit 20878232 upstream. Systems show a minimal load average of 0.00, 0.01, 0.05 even when they have no load at all. Uptime and /proc/loadavg on all systems with kernels released during the last five years up until kernel version 4.6-rc5, show a 5- and 15-minute minimum loadavg of 0.01 and 0.05 respectively. This should be 0.00 on idle systems, but the way the kernel calculates this value prevents it from getting lower than the mentioned values. Likewise but not as obviously noticeable, a fully loaded system with no processes waiting, shows a maximum 1/5/15 loadavg of 1.00, 0.99, 0.95 (multiplied by number of cores). Once the (old) load becomes 93 or higher, it mathematically can never get lower than 93, even when the active (load) remains 0 forever. This results in the strange 0.00, 0.01, 0.05 uptime values on idle systems. Note: 93/2048 = 0.0454..., which rounds up to 0.05. It is not correct to add a 0.5 rounding (=1024/2048) here, since the result from this function is fed back into the next iteration again, so the result of that +0.5 rounding value then gets multiplied by (2048-2037), and then rounded again, so there is a virtual "ghost" load created, next to the old and active load terms. By changing the way the internally kept value is rounded, that internal value equivalent now can reach 0.00 on idle, and 1.00 on full load. Upon increasing load, the internally kept load value is rounded up, when the load is decreasing, the load value is rounded down. The modified code was tested on nohz=off and nohz kernels. It was tested on vanilla kernel 4.6-rc5 and on centos 7.1 kernel 3.10.0-327. It was tested on single, dual, and octal cores system. It was tested on virtual hosts and bare hardware. No unwanted effects have been observed, and the problems that the patch intended to fix were indeed gone. Tested-by:

commit aac55d75 upstream. With Linux page size of 64K and hardware only supporting 4K HPTE, if we use subpage protection, we always fail for the subpage 0 as shown below (using the selftest subpage_prot test): 520175565: (4520111850): Failed at 0x3fffad4b0000 (p=13,sp=0,w=0), want=fault, got=pass ! 4520890210: (4520826495): Failed at 0x3fffad5b0000 (p=29,sp=0,w=0), want=fault, got=pass ! 4521574251: (4521510536): Failed at 0x3fffad6b0000 (p=45,sp=0,w=0), want=fault, got=pass ! 4522258324: (4522194609): Failed at 0x3fffad7b0000 (p=61,sp=0,w=0), want=fault, got=pass ! This is because hash preload wrongly inserts the HPTE entry for subpage 0 without looking at the subpage protection information. Fix it by teaching should_hash_preload() not to preload if we have subpage protection configured for that range. It appears this has been broken since it was introduced in 2008.

commit 8bbc9b7b upstream. Currently we have a check in hash_preload() against the psize, which is only included when CONFIG_PPC_MM_SLICES is enabled. We want to expand this check in a subsequent patch, so factor it out to allow that. As a bonus it removes the #ifdef in the C code. Unfortunately we can't put this in the existing CONFIG_PPC_MM_SLICES block because it would require a forward declaration. Signed-off-by:

commit c9c6837d upstream. gcc-6 started warning by default about variables that are not used anywhere and that are marked 'const', generating many false positives in an allmodconfig build, e.g.: arch/arm/mach-davinci/board-da830-evm.c:282:20: warning: 'da830_evm_emif25_pins' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] arch/arm/plat-omap/dmtimer.c:958:34: warning: 'omap_timer_match' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] drivers/bluetooth/hci_bcm.c:625:39: warning: 'acpi_bcm_default_gpios' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] drivers/char/hw_random/omap-rng.c:92:18: warning: 'reg_map_omap4' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] drivers/devfreq/exynos/exynos5_bus.c:381:32: warning: 'exynos5_busfreq_int_pm' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] drivers/dma/mv_xor.c:1139:34: warning: 'mv_xor_dt_ids' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=] This is similar to the existing -Wunused-but-set-variable warning that was added in an earlier release and that we disable by default now and only enable when W=1 is set, so it makes sense to do the same here. Once we have eliminated the majority of the warnings for both, we can put them back into the default list. We probably want this in backport kernels as well, to allow building them with gcc-6 without introducing extra warnings. Signed-off-by:

commit f228b494 upstream. The loop that browses the array compat_hwcap_str will stop when a NULL is encountered, however NULL is missing at the end of array. This will lead to overrun until a NULL is found somewhere in the following memory. In reality, this works out because the compat_hwcap2_str array tends to follow immediately in memory, and that *is* terminated correctly. Furthermore, the unsigned int compat_elf_hwcap is checked before printing each capability, so we end up doing the right thing because the size of the two arrays is less than 32. Still, this is an obvious mistake and should be fixed. Note for backporting: commit 12d11817 ("arm64: Move /proc/cpuinfo handling code") moved this code in v4.4. Prior to that commit, the same change should be made in arch/arm64/kernel/setup.c. Fixes: 44b82b77 "arm64: Fix up /proc/cpuinfo" Signed-off-by:

commit f86c4fbd upstream. When an IPI is generated by a CPU, the pattern looks roughly like: <write shared data> smp_wmb(); <write to GIC to signal SGI> On the receiving CPU we rely on the fact that, once we've taken the interrupt, then the freshly written shared data must be visible to us. Put another way, the CPU isn't going to speculate taking an interrupt. Unfortunately, this assumption turns out to be broken. Consider that CPUx wants to send an IPI to CPUy, which will cause CPUy to read some shared_data. Before CPUx has done anything, a random peripheral raises an IRQ to the GIC and the IRQ line on CPUy is raised. CPUy then takes the IRQ and starts executing the entry code, heading towards gic_handle_irq. Furthermore, let's assume that a bunch of the previous interrupts handled by CPUy were SGIs, so the branch predictor kicks in and speculates that irqnr will be <16 and we're likely to head into handle_IPI. The prefetcher then grabs a speculative copy of shared_data which contains a stale value. Meanwhile, CPUx gets round to updating shared_data and asking the GIC to send an SGI to CPUy. Internally, the GIC decides that the SGI is more important than the peripheral interrupt (which hasn't yet been ACKed) but doesn't need to do anything to CPUy, because the IRQ line is already raised. CPUy then reads the ACK register on the GIC, sees the SGI value which confirms the branch prediction and we end up with a stale shared_data value. This patch fixes the problem by adding an smp_rmb() to the IPI entry code in gic_handle_irq. As it turns out, the combination of a control dependency and an ISB instruction from the EOI in the GICv3 driver is enough to provide the ordering we need, so we add a comment there justifying the absence of an explicit smp_rmb().
