commit c9d57de6 upstream. When in FE_TUNE_MODE_ONESHOT the frontend must report the actual capabilities so user can take appropriate action. With frontends that can't do auto inversion this is done by dvb-core automatically so CAN_INVERSION_AUTO is valid. However, when in FE_TUNE_MODE_ONESHOT this is not true. So only set FE_CAN_INVERSION_AUTO in modes other than FE_TUNE_MODE_ONESHOT Signed-off-by:

commit 768acf46 upstream. The driver allocates the spinlock but fails to initialize it correctly. The kernel reports a BUG indicating bad spinlock magic when spinlock debugging is enabled. Call spin_lock_init() on it to initialize it correctly. Fixes: b4e3e59f ("[media] rc: add sunxi-ir driver") Signed-off-by:

commit d4565649 upstream. both do_last() and walk_component() risk picking a NULL inode out of dentry about to become positive, *then* checking its flags and seeing that it's not negative anymore and using (already stale by then) value they'd fetched earlier. Usually ends up oopsing soon after that... Signed-off-by:

commit f99551a2 upstream. In commit 38506ece (rtlwifi: rtl_pci: Start modification for new drivers), a bug was introduced that causes a NULL pointer dereference. As this bug only affects the infrequently used RTL8192EE and only under low-memory conditions, it has taken a long time for the bug to show up.

commit 7f3697e2 upstream. Dmitry reported that he was able to reproduce the WARN_ON_ONCE that fires in locks_free_lock_context when the flc_posix list isn't empty. The problem turns out to be that we're basically rebuilding the file_lock from scratch in fcntl_setlk when we discover that the setlk has raced with a close. If the l_whence field is SEEK_CUR or SEEK_END, then we may end up with fl_start and fl_end values that differ from when the lock was initially set, if the file position or length of the file has changed in the interim. Fix this by just reusing the same lock request structure, and simply override fl_type value with F_UNLCK as appropriate. That ensures that we really are unlocking the lock that was initially set. While we're there, make sure that we do pop a WARN_ON_ONCE if the removal ever fails. Also return -EBADF in this event, since that's what we would have returned if the close had happened earlier.

commit 342300cc upstream. git commit 80703617 "s390: add support for vector extension" broke 31-bit compat processes in regard to signal handling. The restore_sigregs_ext32() function is used to restore the additional elements from the user space signal frame. Among the additional elements are the upper registers halves for 64-bit register support for 31-bit processes. The copy_from_user that is used to retrieve the high-gprs array from the user stack uses an incorrect length, 8 bytes instead of 64 bytes. This causes incorrect upper register halves to get loaded.

commit bcb7825a upstream. The normalization pass in the sorting routine of the relative exception table serves two purposes: - it ensures that the address fields of the exception table entries are fully ordered, so that no ambiguities arise between entries with identical instruction offsets (i.e., when two instructions that are exactly 8 bytes apart each have an exception table entry associated with them) - it ensures that the offsets of both the instruction and the fixup fields of each entry are relative to their final location after sorting. Commit eb608fb3 ("s390/exceptions: switch to relative exception table entries") ported the relative exception table format from x86, but modified the sorting routine to only normalize the instruction offset field and not the fixup offset field. The result is that the fixup offset of each entry will be relative to the original location of the entry before sorting, likely leading to crashes when those entries are dereferenced.

commit a879719b upstream. When a symlink is successfully created it always has an inline extent containing the source path. However if an error happens when creating the symlink, we can leave in the subvolume's tree a symlink inode without any such inline extent item - this happens if after btrfs_symlink() calls btrfs_end_transaction() and before it calls the inode eviction handler (through the final iput() call), the transaction gets committed and a crash happens before the eviction handler gets called, or if a snapshot of the subvolume is made before the eviction handler gets called. Sadly we can't just avoid this by making btrfs_symlink() call btrfs_end_transaction() after it calls the eviction handler, because the later can commit the current transaction before it removes any items from the subvolume tree (if it encounters ENOSPC errors while reserving space for removing all the items). So make send fail more gracefully, with an -EIO error, and print a message to dmesg/syslog informing that there's an empty symlink inode, so that the user can delete the empty symlink or do something else about it.

commit ca8a51b3 upstream. There is one ENOSPC case that's very confusing. There's Available greater than zero but no file operation succeds (besides removing files). This happens when the metadata are exhausted and there's no possibility to allocate another chunk. In this scenario it's normal that there's still some space in the data chunk and the calculation in df reflects that in the Avail value. To at least give some clue about the ENOSPC situation, let statfs report zero value in Avail, even if there's still data space available. Current: /dev/sdb1 4.0G 3.3G 719M 83% /mnt/test New: /dev/sdb1 4.0G 3.3G 0 100% /mnt/test We calculate the remaining metadata space minus global reserve. If this is (supposedly) smaller than zero, there's no space. But this does not hold in practice, the exhausted state happens where's still some positive delta. So we apply some guesswork and compare the delta to a 4M threshold. (Practically observed delta was 2M.) We probably cannot calculate the exact threshold value because this depends on the internal reservations requested by various operations, so some operations that consume a few metadata will succeed even if the Avail is zero. But this is better than the other way around. Signed-off-by:

commit be7bd730 upstream. We hit this panic on a few of our boxes this week where we have an ordered_extent with an NULL inode. We do an igrab() of the inode in writepages, but weren't doing it in writepage which can be called directly from the VM on dirty pages. If the inode has been unlinked then we could have I_FREEING set which means igrab() would return NULL and we get this panic. Fix this by trying to igrab in btrfs_writepage, and if it returns NULL then just redirty the page and return AOP_WRITEPAGE_ACTIVATE; so the VM knows it wasn't successful. Thanks, Signed-off-by:

commit 9abc2a08 upstream. The kernel now always uses vector registers when available, however KVM has special logic if support is really enabled for a guest. If support is disabled, guest_fpregs.fregs will only contain memory for the fpu. The kernel, however, will store vector registers into that area, resulting in crazy memory overwrites. Simply extending that area is not enough, because the format of the registers also changes. We would have to do additional conversions, making the code even more complex. Therefore let's directly use one place for the vector/fpu registers + fpc (in kvm_run). We just have to convert the data properly when accessing it. This makes current code much easier. Please note that vector/fpu registers are now always stored to vcpu->run->s.regs.vrs. Although this data is visible to QEMU and used for migration, we only guarantee valid values to user space when KVM_SYNC_VRS is set. As that is only the case when we have vector register support, we are on the safe side.

commit f9eccf24 upstream. The vt8500 clocksource driver declares itself as capable to handle the minimum delay of 4 cycles by passing the value into clockevents_config_and_register(). The vt8500_timer_set_next_event() requires the passed cycles value to be at least 16. The impact is that userspace hangs in nanosleep() calls with small delay intervals. This problem is reproducible in Linux 4.2 starting from: c6eb3f70 ('hrtimer: Get rid of hrtimer softirq') From Russell King, more detailed explanation: "It's a speciality of the StrongARM/PXA hardware. It takes a certain number of OSCR cycles for the value written to hit the compare registers. So, if a very small delta is written (eg, the compare register is written with a value of OSCR + 1), the OSCR will have incremented past this value before it hits the underlying hardware. The result is, that you end up waiting a very long time for the OSCR to wrap before the event fires. So, we introduce a check in set_next_event() to detect this and return -ETIME if the calculated delta is too small, which causes the generic clockevents code to retry after adding the min_delta specified in clockevents_config_and_register() to the current time value. min_delta must be sufficient that we don't re-trip the -ETIME check - if we do, we will return -ETIME, forward the next event time, try to set it, return -ETIME again, and basically lock the system up. So, min_delta must be larger than the check inside set_next_event(). A factor of two was chosen to ensure that this situation would never occur. The PXA code worked on PXA systems for years, and I'd suggest no one changes this mechanism without access to a wide range of PXA systems, otherwise they're risking breakage."

commit 570540d5 upstream. commit 71f64340 changed the handling of irq_desc->action from CPU 0 CPU 1 free_irq() lock(desc) lock(desc) handle_edge_irq() if (desc->action) { handle_irq_event() action = desc->action unlock(desc) desc->action = NULL handle_irq_event_percpu(desc, action) action->xxx to CPU 0 CPU 1 free_irq() lock(desc) lock(desc) handle_edge_irq() if (desc->action) { handle_irq_event() unlock(desc) desc->action = NULL handle_irq_event_percpu(desc, action) action = desc->action action->xxx So if free_irq manages to set the action to NULL between the unlock and before the readout, we happily dereference a null pointer. We could simply revert 71f64340, but we want to preserve the better code generation. A simple solution is to change the action loop from a do {} while to a while {} loop. This is safe because we either see a valid desc->action or NULL. If the action is about to be removed it is still valid as free_irq() is blocked on synchronize_irq(). CPU 0 CPU 1 free_irq() lock(desc) lock(desc) handle_edge_irq() handle_irq_event(desc) set(INPROGRESS) unlock(desc) handle_irq_event_percpu(desc) action = desc->action desc->action = NULL while (action) { action->xxx ... action = action->next; sychronize_irq() while(INPROGRESS); lock(desc) clr(INPROGRESS) free(action) That's basically the same mechanism as we have for shared interrupts. action->next can become NULL while handle_irq_event_percpu() runs. Either it sees the action or NULL. It does not matter, because action itself cannot go away before the interrupt in progress flag has been cleared.

commit 8479eba7 upstream. Commit 4167e9b2 ("mm: remove GFP_THISNODE") removed the GFP_THISNODE flag combination due to confusing semantics. It noted that alloc_misplaced_dst_page() was one such user after changes made by commit e97ca8e5 ("mm: fix GFP_THISNODE callers and clarify"). Unfortunately when GFP_THISNODE was removed, users of alloc_misplaced_dst_page() started waking kswapd and entering direct reclaim because the wrong GFP flags are cleared. The consequence is that workloads that used to fit into memory now get reclaimed which is addressed by this patch. The problem can be demonstrated with "mutilate" that exercises memcached which is software dedicated to memory object caching. The configuration uses 80% of memory and is run 3 times for varying numbers of clients. The results on a 4-socket NUMA box are mutilate 4.4.0 4.4.0 vanilla numaswap-v1 Hmean 1 8394.71 ( 0.00%) 8395.32 ( 0.01%) Hmean 4 30024.62 ( 0.00%) 34513.54 ( 14.95%) Hmean 7 32821.08 ( 0.00%) 70542.96 (114.93%) Hmean 12 55229.67 ( 0.00%) 93866.34 ( 69.96%) Hmean 21 39438.96 ( 0.00%) 85749.21 (117.42%) Hmean 30 37796.10 ( 0.00%) 50231.49 ( 32.90%) Hmean 47 18070.91 ( 0.00%) 38530.13 (113.22%) The metric is queries/second with the more the better. The results are way outside of the noise and the reason for the improvement is obvious from some of the vmstats 4.4.0 4.4.0 vanillanumaswap-v1r1 Minor Faults 1929399272 2146148218 Major Faults 19746529 3567 Swap Ins 57307366 9913 Swap Outs 50623229 17094 Allocation stalls 35909 443 DMA allocs 0 0 DMA32 allocs 72976349 170567396 Normal allocs 5306640898 5310651252 Movable allocs 0 0 Direct pages scanned 404130893 799577 Kswapd pages scanned 160230174 0 Kswapd pages reclaimed 55928786 0 Direct pages reclaimed 1843936 41921 Page writes file 2391 0 Page writes anon 50623229 17094 The vanilla kernel is swapping like crazy with large amounts of direct reclaim and kswapd activity. The figures are aggregate but it's known that the bad activity is throughout the entire test. Note that simple streaming anon/file memory consumers also see this problem but it's not as obvious. In those cases, kswapd is awake when it should not be. As there are at least two reclaim-related bugs out there, it's worth spelling out the user-visible impact. This patch only addresses bugs related to excessive reclaim on NUMA hardware when the working set is larger than a NUMA node. There is a bug related to high kswapd CPU usage but the reports are against laptops and other UMA hardware and is not addressed by this patch. Signed-off-by:

commit ad33bb04 upstream. pmd_trans_unstable()/pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() were introduced to locklessy (but atomically) detect when a pmd is a regular (stable) pmd or when the pmd is unstable and can infinitely transition from pmd_none() and pmd_trans_huge() from under us, while only holding the mmap_sem for reading (for writing not). While holding the mmap_sem only for reading, MADV_DONTNEED can run from under us and so before we can assume the pmd to be a regular stable pmd we need to compare it against pmd_none() and pmd_trans_huge() in an atomic way, with pmd_trans_unstable(). The old pmd_trans_huge() left a tiny window for a race. Useful applications are unlikely to notice the difference as doing MADV_DONTNEED concurrently with a page fault would lead to undefined behavior.

commit 97e5ed11 upstream. We get tons of cases where the master interrupt handler apparently set a bit, with the SDEIIR disagreeing. No idea what's going on there, but it's consistent on gen8+, no one seems to care about it and it's making CI results flaky. Shut it up.
