commit 113e8283 upstream. If we pass a length of 0 to the extent_same ioctl, we end up locking an extent range with a start offset greater then its end offset (if the destination file's offset is greater than zero). This results in a warning from extent_io.c:insert_state through the following call chain: btrfs_extent_same() btrfs_double_lock() lock_extent_range() lock_extent(inode->io_tree, offset, offset + len - 1) lock_extent_bits() __set_extent_bit() insert_state() --> WARN_ON(end < start) This leads to an infinite loop when evicting the inode. This is the same problem that my previous patch titled "Btrfs: fix inode eviction infinite loop after cloning into it" addressed but for the extent_same ioctl instead of the clone ioctl.

commit ccccf3d6 upstream. If we attempt to clone a 0 length region into a file we can end up inserting a range in the inode's extent_io tree with a start offset that is greater then the end offset, which triggers immediately the following warning: [ 3914.619057] WARNING: CPU: 17 PID: 4199 at fs/btrfs/extent_io.c:435 insert_state+0x4b/0x10b [btrfs]() [ 3914.620886] BTRFS: end < start 4095 4096 (...)

commit dcc82f47 upstream. While committing a transaction we free the log roots before we write the new super block. Freeing the log roots implies marking the disk location of every node/leaf (metadata extent) as pinned before the new super block is written. This is to prevent the disk location of log metadata extents from being reused before the new super block is written, otherwise we would have a corrupted log tree if before the new super block is written a crash/reboot happens and the location of any log tree metadata extent ended up being reused and rewritten. Even though we pinned the log tree's metadata extents, we were issuing a discard against them if the fs was mounted with the -o discard option, resulting in corruption of the log tree if a crash/reboot happened before writing the new super block - the next time the fs was mounted, during the log replay process we would find nodes/leafs of the log btree with a content full of zeroes, causing the process to fail and require the use of the tool btrfs-zero-log to wipeout the log tree (and all data previously fsynced becoming lost forever). Fix this by not doing a discard when pinning an extent. The discard will be done later when it's safe (after the new super block is committed) at extent-tree.c:btrfs_finish_extent_commit().

commit 9e9c3fe4 upstream. kvm_init_msr_list is currently called before hardware_setup. As a result, vmx_mpx_supported always returns false when kvm_init_msr_list checks whether to save MSR_IA32_BNDCFGS. Move kvm_init_msr_list after vmx_hardware_setup is called to fix this issue.

commit f8e617f4 upstream. To fully take advantage of MWAIT, apparently the CLFLUSH instruction needs another quirk on certain CPUs: proper barriers around it on certain machines. On a Q6600 SMP system, pipe-test scheduling performance, cross core, improves significantly: 3.8.13 487.2 KHz 1.000 3.13.0-master 415.5 KHz .852 3.13.0-master+ 415.2 KHz .852 + restore mwait_idle 3.13.0-master++ 488.5 KHz 1.002 + restore mwait_idle + IPI fix Since X86_BUG_CLFLUSH_MONITOR is already a quirk, don't create a separate quirk for the extra smp_mb()s.

sched/idle/x86: Restore mwait_idle() to fix boot hangs, to improve power savings and to improve performance commit b253149b upstream. In Linux-3.9 we removed the mwait_idle() loop: 69fb3676 ("x86 idle: remove mwait_idle() and "idle=mwait" cmdline param") The reasoning was that modern machines should be sufficiently happy during the boot process using the default_idle() HALT loop, until cpuidle loads and either acpi_idle or intel_idle invoke the newer MWAIT-with-hints idle loop. But two machines reported problems: 1. Certain Core2-era machines support MWAIT-C1 and HALT only. MWAIT-C1 is preferred for optimal power and performance. But if they support just C1, cpuidle never loads and so they use the boot-time default idle loop forever. 2. Some laptops will boot-hang if HALT is used, but will boot successfully if MWAIT is used. This appears to be a hidden assumption in BIOS SMI, that is presumably valid on the proprietary OS where the BIOS was validated. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60770 So here we effectively revert the patch above, restoring the mwait_idle() loop. However, we don't bother restoring the idle=mwait cmdline parameter, since it appears to add no value. Maintainer notes: For 3.9, simply revert 69fb3676 for 3.10, patch -F3 applies, fuzz needed due to __cpuinit use in context For 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, this patch applies cleanly Tested-by: Mike Galbraith <bitbucket@online.de> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Acked-by: Mike Galbraith <bitbucket@online.de> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: H.

commit 91e5ed49 upstream. x86 instructions cannot exceed 15 bytes, and the instruction decoder should enforce that. Prior to 6ba48ff4, the instruction length limit was implicitly set to 16, which was an approximation of 15, but there is currently no limit at all. Fix MAX_INSN_SIZE (it should be 15, not 16), and fix the decoder to reject instructions that exceed MAX_INSN_SIZE. Other than potentially confusing some of the decoder sanity checks, I'm not aware of any actual problems that omitting this check would cause, nor am I aware of any practical problems caused by the MAX_INSN_SIZE error.

[ Upstream commit 0e03fd3e ] Commit 43d3ddf8 ("net: pxa168_eth: add device tree support") starts to use managed resources by adding devm_clk_get() and devm_ioremap_resource(), but it leaves explicit iounmap() and clock_put() in pxa168_eth_remove() and in failure handling code of pxa168_eth_probe(). As a result double free can happen. The patch removes explicit resource deallocation. Also it converts clk_disable() to clk_disable_unprepare() to make it symmetrical with clk_prepare_enable().

[ Upstream commit 79930f58 ] build_skb() should look at the page pfmemalloc status. If set, this means page allocator allocated this page in the expectation it would help to free other pages. Networking stack can do that only if skb->pfmemalloc is also set. Also, we must refrain using high order pages from the pfmemalloc reserve, so __page_frag_refill() must also use __GFP_NOMEMALLOC for them. Under memory pressure, using order-0 pages is probably the best strategy. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

[ Upstream commit 845704a5 ] Presence of an unbound loop in tcp_send_fin() had always been hard to explain when analyzing crash dumps involving gigantic dying processes with millions of sockets. Lets try a different strategy : In case of memory pressure, try to add the FIN flag to last packet in write queue, even if packet was already sent. TCP stack will be able to deliver this FIN after a timeout event. Note that this FIN being delivered by a retransmit, it also carries a Push flag given our current implementation. By checking sk_under_memory_pressure(), we anticipate that cooking many FIN packets might deplete tcp memory. In the case we could not allocate a packet, even with __GFP_WAIT allocation, then not sending a FIN seems quite reasonable if it allows to get rid of this socket, free memory, and not block the process from eventually doing other useful work.

[ Upstream commit d83769a5 ] Using sk_stream_alloc_skb() in tcp_send_fin() is dangerous in case a huge process is killed by OOM, and tcp_mem[2] is hit. To be able to free memory we need to make progress, so this patch allows FIN packets to not care about tcp_mem[2], if skb allocation succeeded. In a follow-up patch, we might abort tcp_send_fin() infinite loop in case TIF_MEMDIE is set on this thread, as memory allocator did its best getting extra memory already.

Especially tw sockets will lead to panics later-on in the stack. This was observed with TPROXY assigning a tw socket and broken policy routing (misconfigured).

commit d0311314 upstream. The hardware and firmware for the RTL8192EE utilize a FIFO list of descriptors. There were some problems with the initial implementation. The worst of these failed to detect that the FIFO was becoming full, which led to the device needing to be power cycled. As this condition is not relevant to most of the devices supported by rtlwifi, a callback routine was added to detect this situation. This patch implements the necessary changes in the pci handler, and the linkage into the appropriate rtl8192ee routine.

commit e66f17ff upstream. We have a race condition between move_pages() and freeing hugepages, where move_pages() calls follow_page(FOLL_GET) for hugepages internally and tries to get its refcount without preventing concurrent freeing. This race crashes the kernel, so this patch fixes it by moving FOLL_GET code for hugepages into follow_huge_pmd() with taking the page table lock. This patch intentionally removes page==NULL check after pte_page. This is justified because pte_page() never returns NULL for any architectures or configurations. This patch changes the behavior of follow_huge_pmd() for tail pages and then tail pages can be pinned/returned. So the caller must be changed to properly handle the returned tail pages. We could have a choice to add the similar locking to follow_huge_(addr|pud) for consistency, but it's not necessary because currently these functions don't support FOLL_GET flag, so let's leave it for future development. Here is the reproducer: $ cat movepages.c #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <numaif.h> #define ADDR_INPUT 0x700000000000UL #define HPS 0x200000 #define PS 0x1000 int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int i; int nr_hp = strtol(argv[1], NULL, 0); int nr_p = nr_hp * HPS / PS; int ret; void **addrs; int *status; int *nodes; pid_t pid; pid = strtol(argv[2], NULL, 0); addrs = malloc(sizeof(char *) * nr_p + 1); status = malloc(sizeof(char *) * nr_p + 1); nodes = malloc(sizeof(char *) * nr_p + 1); while (1) { for (i = 0; i < nr_p; i++) { addrs[i] = (void *)ADDR_INPUT + i * PS; nodes[i] = 1; status[i] = 0; } ret = numa_move_pages(pid, nr_p, addrs, nodes, status, MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL); if (ret == -1) err("move_pages"); for (i = 0; i < nr_p; i++) { addrs[i] = (void *)ADDR_INPUT + i * PS; nodes[i] = 0; status[i] = 0; } ret = numa_move_pages(pid, nr_p, addrs, nodes, status, MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL); if (ret == -1) err("move_pages"); } return 0; } $ cat hugepage.c #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <string.h> #define ADDR_INPUT 0x700000000000UL #define HPS 0x200000 int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int nr_hp = strtol(argv[1], NULL, 0); char *p; while (1) { p = mmap((void *)ADDR_INPUT, nr_hp * HPS, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB, -1, 0); if (p != (void *)ADDR_INPUT) { perror("mmap"); break; } memset(p, 0, nr_hp * HPS); munmap(p, nr_hp * HPS); } } $ sysctl vm.nr_hugepages=40 $ ./hugepage 10 & $ ./movepages 10 $(pgrep -f hugepage) [n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com: resolve conflict to apply to v3.19.1] Fixes: e632a938 ("mm: migrate: add hugepage migration code to move_pages()") Signed-off-by: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> Reported-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: James Hogan <james.hogan@imgtec.com> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com> Cc: Nishanth Aravamudan <nacc@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Lee Schermerhorn <lee.schermerhorn@hp.com> Cc: Steve Capper <steve.capper@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit 61f77eda upstream. Currently we have many duplicates in definitions around follow_huge_addr(), follow_huge_pmd(), and follow_huge_pud(), so this patch tries to remove the m. The basic idea is to put the default implementation for these functions in mm/hugetlb.c as weak symbols (regardless of CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_GENERAL_HUGETL B), and to implement arch-specific code only when the arch needs it. For follow_huge_addr(), only powerpc and ia64 have their own implementation, and in all other architectures this function just returns ERR_PTR(-EINVAL). So this patch sets returning ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) as default. As for follow_huge_(pmd|pud)(), if (pmd|pud)_huge() is implemented to always return 0 in your architecture (like in ia64 or sparc,) it's never called (the callsite is optimized away) no matter how implemented it is. So in such architectures, we don't need arch-specific implementation. In some architecture (like mips, s390 and tile,) their current arch-specific follow_huge_(pmd|pud)() are effectively identical with the common code, so this patch lets these architecture use the common code. One exception is metag, where pmd_huge() could return non-zero but it expects follow_huge_pmd() to always return NULL. This means that we need arch-specific implementation which returns NULL. This behavior looks strange to me (because non-zero pmd_huge() implies that the architecture supports PMD-based hugepage, so follow_huge_pmd() can/should return some relevant value,) but that's beyond this cleanup patch, so let's keep it. Justification of non-trivial changes: - in s390, follow_huge_pmd() checks !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE at first, and this patch removes the check. This is OK because we can assume MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE is true when follow_huge_pmd() can be called (note that pmd_huge() has the same check and always returns 0 for !MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE.) - in s390 and mips, we use HPAGE_MASK instead of PMD_MASK as done in common code. This patch forces these archs use PMD_MASK, but it's OK because they are identical in both archs. In s390, both of HPAGE_SHIFT and PMD_SHIFT are 20. In mips, HPAGE_SHIFT is defined as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT - 3) and PMD_SHIFT is define as (PAGE_SHIFT + PAGE_SHIFT + PTE_ORDER - 3), but PTE_ORDER is always 0, so these are identical.

commit abe46b89 upstream. Reading of analog input channels by the `INSN_READ` comedi instruction is broken for all except channel 0. `pci171x_ai_insn_read()` calls `pci171x_ai_read_sample()` with the wrong value for the third parameter. It is supposed to be the current index in a channel list (which is always of length 1 in this case, so the index should be 0), but instead it is passing the actual channel number. `pci171x_ai_read_sample()` checks the channel number encoded in the raw sample value read from the hardware matches the channel number stored in the specified index of the previously set up channel list and returns `-ENODATA` if it doesn't match. Since the index should always be 0 in this case, the match will fail unless the channel number is also 0. Fix it by passing 0 as the channel index. Note that when the bug first appeared, it was `pci171x_ai_dropout()` that was called with the wrong parameter value. `pci171x_ai_dropout()` got replaced with `pci171x_ai_read_sample()` in commit 7fd2dae2 ("staging: comedi: adv_pci1710: introduce pci171x_ai_read_sample()").

[ Upstream commit 0c36820e ] xen-netfront limits transmitted skbs to be at most 44 segments in size. However, GSO permits up to 65536 bytes, which means a maximum of 45 segments of 1448 bytes each. This slight reduction in the size of packets means a slight loss in efficiency. Since c/s 9ecd1a75, xen-netfront sets gso_max_size to XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE - MAX_TCP_HEADER, where XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE is 65535 bytes. The calculation used by tcp_tso_autosize (and also tcp_xmit_size_goal since c/s 6c09fa09) in determining when to split an skb into two is sk->sk_gso_max_size - 1 - MAX_TCP_HEADER. So the maximum permitted size of an skb is calculated to be (XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE - MAX_TCP_HEADER) - 1 - MAX_TCP_HEADER. Intuitively, this looks like the wrong formula -- we don't need two TCP headers. Instead, there is no need to deviate from the default gso_max_size of 65536 as this already accommodates the size of the header. Currently, the largest skb transmitted by netfront is 63712 bytes (44 segments of 1448 bytes each), as observed via tcpdump. This patch makes netfront send skbs of up to 65160 bytes (45 segments of 1448 bytes each). Similarly, the maximum allowable mtu does not need to subtract MAX_TCP_HEADER as it relates to the size of the whole packet, including the header.

[ Upstream commit fa2d8ff4 ] Return module reference before invoking the respective vport ->destroy() function. This is needed as ovs_vport_del() is not invoked inside an RCU read side critical section so the kfree can occur immediately before returning to ovs_vport_del(). Returning the module reference before ->destroy() is safe because the module unregistration is blocked on ovs_lock which we hold while destroying the datapath.
