commit c72efb65 upstream. From 1ebf33901ecc75d9496862dceb1ef0377980587c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2015 00:08:19 -0400 2f800fbd ("writeback: fix dirtied pages accounting on redirty") introduced account_page_redirty() which reverts stat updates for a redirtied page, making BDI_DIRTIED no longer monotonically increasing. bdi_update_write_bandwidth() uses the delta in BDI_DIRTIED as the basis for bandwidth calculation. While unlikely, since the above patch, the newer value may be lower than the recorded past value and underflow the bandwidth calculation leading to a wild result. Fix it by subtracing min of the old and new values when calculating delta. AFAIK, there hasn't been any report of it happening but the resulting erratic behavior would be non-critical and temporary, so it's possible that the issue is happening without being reported. The risk of the fix is very low, so tagged for -stable. Signed-off-by:

commit 7d70e154 upstream. global_update_bandwidth() uses static variable update_time as the timestamp for the last update but forgets to initialize it to INITIALIZE_JIFFIES. This means that global_dirty_limit will be 5 mins into the future on 32bit and some large amount jiffies into the past on 64bit. This isn't critical as the only effect is that global_dirty_limit won't be updated for the first 5 mins after booting on 32bit machines, especially given the auxiliary nature of global_dirty_limit's role - protecting against global dirty threshold's sudden dips; however, it does lead to unintended suboptimal behavior. Fix it. Fixes: c42843f2 ("writeback: introduce smoothed global dirty limit") Signed-off-by:

commit 746db944 upstream. When non-realtime tasks get priority-inheritance boosted to a realtime scheduling class, RLIMIT_RTTIME starts to apply to them. However, the counter used for checking this (the same one used for SCHED_RR timeslices) was not getting reset. This meant that tasks running with a non-realtime scheduling class which are repeatedly boosted to a realtime one, but never block while they are running realtime, eventually hit the timeout without ever running for a time over the limit. This patch resets the realtime timeslice counter when un-PI-boosting from an RT to a non-RT scheduling class. I have some test code with two threads and a shared PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT mutex which induces priority boosting and spins while boosted that gets killed by a SIGXCPU on non-fixed kernels but doesn't with this patch applied. It happens much faster with a CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT kernel, and does happen eventually with PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY kernels. Signed-off-by:

The INIT firmware runs calibrations which impact the physical layer's behavior. Users reported that it may be helpful to run these calibrations again every time the interface is brought up.

Commit 355a901e ("tcp: make connect() mem charging friendly") changed tcp_send_syn_data() to perform an open-coded copy of the 'syn' skb rather than using skb_copy_expand(). The open-coded copy does not cover the skb_shared_info::gso_segs field, so in the new skb it is left set to 0. When this commit was backported into stable branches between 3.10.y and 3.16.7-ckty inclusive, it triggered the BUG() in tcp_transmit_skb(). Since Linux 3.18 the GSO segment count is kept in the tcp_skb_cb::tcp_gso_segs field and tcp_send_syn_data() does copy the tcp_skb_cb structure to the new skb, so mainline and newer stable branches are not affected. Set skb_shared_info::gso_segs to the correct value of 1. Signed-off-by:

commit 6914e1e3 upstream. The regfile provided to SA_SIGINFO signal handler as ucontext was off by one due to pt_regs gutter cleanups in 2013. Before handling signal, user pt_regs are copied onto user_regs_struct and copied back later. Both structs are binary compatible. This was all fine until commit 2fa91904 (ARC: pt_regs update #2) which removed the empty stack slot at top of pt_regs (corresponding to first pad) and made the corresponding fixup in struct user_regs_struct (the pad in there was moved out of @scratch - not removed altogether as it is part of ptrace ABI) struct user_regs_struct { + long pad; struct { - long pad; long bta, lp_start, lp_end,.... } scratch; ... } This meant that now user_regs_struct was off by 1 reg w.r.t pt_regs and signal code needs to user_regs_struct.scratch to reflect it as pt_regs, which is what this commit does. This problem was hidden for 2 years, because both save/restore, despite using wrong location, were using the same location. Only an interim inspection (reproducer below) exposed the issue. void handle_segv(int signo, siginfo_t *info, void *context) { ucontext_t *uc = context; struct user_regs_struct *regs = &(uc->uc_mcontext.regs); printf("regs %x %x\n", <=== prints 7 8 (vs. 8 9) regs->scratch.r8, regs->scratch.r9); } int main() { struct sigaction sa; sa.sa_sigaction = handle_segv; sa.sa_flags = SA_SIGINFO; sigemptyset(&sa.sa_mask); sigaction(SIGSEGV, &sa, NULL); asm volatile( "mov r7, 7 \n" "mov r8, 8 \n" "mov r9, 9 \n" "mov r10, 10 \n" :::"r7","r8","r9","r10"); *((unsigned int*)0x10) = 0; } Fixes: 2fa91904 "ARC: pt_regs update #2: Remove unused gutter at start of pt_regs" Signed-off-by:

commit cc7016ab upstream. Some BIOS version of Fujitsu Lifebook T731 seems to set up the headphone pin (0x21) without the assoc number 0x0f while it's set only to the output on the docking port (0x1a). With the recent commit [03ad6a8c: ALSA: hda - Fix "PCM" name being used on one DAC when there are two DACs], this resulted in the weird mixer element mapping where the headphone on the laptop is assigned as a shared volume with the speaker and the docking port is assigned as an individual headphone. This patch improves the situation by correcting the headphone pin config to the more appropriate value. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit 87f966d9 upstream. On a MIPS Malta board, tons of fifo underflow errors have been observed when using u-boot as bootloader instead of YAMON. The reason for that is that YAMON used to set the pcnet device to SRAM mode but u-boot does not. As a result, the default Tx threshold (64 bytes) is now too small to keep the fifo relatively used and it can result to Tx fifo underflow errors. As a result of which, it's best to setup the SRAM on supported controllers so we can always use the NOUFLO bit.

commit f6ff0414 upstream. We currently use the device tree update code in the kernel after resuming from a suspend operation to re-sync the kernels view of the device tree with that of the hypervisor. The code as it stands is not endian safe as it relies on parsing buffers returned by RTAS calls that thusly contains data in big endian format. This patch annotates variables and structure members with __be types as well as performing necessary byte swaps to cpu endian for data that needs to be parsed. Signed-off-by:

commit 98cf21c6 upstream. Fix B-tree corruption when a new record is inserted at position 0 in the node in hfs_brec_insert(). In this case a hfs_brec_update_parent() is called to update the parent index node (if exists) and it is passed hfs_find_data with a search_key containing a newly inserted key instead of the key to be updated. This results in an inconsistent index node. The bug reproduces on my machine after an extents overflow record for the catalog file (CNID=4) is inserted into the extents overflow B-tree. Because of a low (reserved) value of CNID=4, it has to become the first record in the first leaf node. The resulting first leaf node is correct: ---------------------------------------------------- | key0.CNID=4 | key1.CNID=123 | key2.CNID=456, ... | ---------------------------------------------------- But the parent index key0 still contains the previous key CNID=123: ----------------------- | key0.CNID=123 | ... | ----------------------- A change in hfs_brec_insert() makes hfs_brec_update_parent() work correctly by preventing it from getting fd->record=-1 value from __hfs_brec_find(). Along the way, I removed duplicate code with unification of the if condition. The resulting code is equivalent to the original code because node is never 0. Also hfs_brec_update_parent() will now return an error after getting a negative fd->record value. However, the return value of hfs_brec_update_parent() is not checked anywhere in the file and I'm leaving it unchanged by this patch. brec.c lacks error checking after some other calls too, but this issue is of less importance than the one being fixed by this patch.

Vince reported a watchdog lockup like: [<ffffffff8115e114>] perf_tp_event+0xc4/0x210 [<ffffffff810b4f8a>] perf_trace_lock+0x12a/0x160 [<ffffffff810b7f10>] lock_release+0x130/0x260 [<ffffffff816c7474>] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x24/0x40 [<ffffffff8107bb4d>] do_send_sig_info+0x5d/0x80 [<ffffffff811f69df>] send_sigio_to_task+0x12f/0x1a0 [<ffffffff811f71ce>] send_sigio+0xae/0x100 [<ffffffff811f72b7>] kill_fasync+0x97/0xf0 [<ffffffff8115d0b4>] perf_event_wakeup+0xd4/0xf0 [<ffffffff8115d103>] perf_pending_event+0x33/0x60 [<ffffffff8114e3fc>] irq_work_run_list+0x4c/0x80 [<ffffffff8114e448>] irq_work_run+0x18/0x40 [<ffffffff810196af>] smp_trace_irq_work_interrupt+0x3f/0xc0 [<ffffffff816c99bd>] trace_irq_work_interrupt+0x6d/0x80 Which is caused by an irq_work generating new irq_work and therefore not allowing forward progress. This happens because processing the perf irq_work triggers another perf event (tracepoint stuff) which in turn generates an irq_work ad infinitum. Avoid this by raising the recursion counter in the irq_work -- which effectively disables all software events (including tracepoints) from actually triggering again. Reported-by:

commit aa75ebc2 upstream. Some APs experience problems when working with U-APSD. Decreasing the probability of that happening by using legacy mode for all ACs but VO isn't enough. Cisco 4410N originally forced us to enable VO by default only because it treated non-VO ACs as legacy. However some APs (notably Netgear R7000) silently reclassify packets to different ACs. Since u-APSD ACs require trigger frames for frame retrieval clients would never see some frames (e.g. ARP responses) or would fetch them accidentally after a long time. It makes little sense to enable u-APSD queues by default because it needs userspace applications to be aware of it to actually take advantage of the possible additional powersavings. Implicitly depending on driver autotrigger frame support doesn't make much sense. Signed-off-by:

commit 496fcc29 upstream. As HT/VHT depend heavily on QoS/WMM, it's not a good idea to let userspace add clients that have HT/VHT but not QoS/WMM. Since it does so in certain cases we've observed (client is using HT IEs but not QoS/WMM) just ignore the HT/VHT info at this point and don't pass it down to the drivers which might unconditionally use it.

commit 75c3d0bf upstream. This patch fixes the incorrect use of __transport_register_session() in tcm_qla2xxx_check_initiator_node_acl() code, that does not perform explicit se_tpg->session_lock when accessing se_tpg->tpg_sess_list to add new se_sess nodes. Given that tcm_qla2xxx_check_initiator_node_acl() is not called with qla_hw->hardware_lock held for all accesses of ->tpg_sess_list, the code should be using transport_register_session() instead.

commit 328f494d upstream. When inserting a new register into a block at the lower end the present bitmap is currently shifted into the wrong direction. The effect of this is that the bitmap becomes corrupted and registers which are present might be reported as not present and vice versa. Fix this by shifting left rather than right.

commit 07892b10 upstream. The correct values referred by a boolean control are value.integer.value[], not value.enumerated.item[]. The former is long while the latter is int, so it's even incompatible on 64bit architectures. Signed-off-by:
