      Revert "dm crypt: fix deadlock when async crypto algorithm returns -EBUSY" · 90cdd181
      Rabin Vincent authored 
      [ Upstream commit c0403ec0 ]

This reverts Linux 4.1-rc1 commit 0618764c.

The problem which that commit attempts to fix actually lies in the
Freescale CAAM crypto driver not dm-crypt.

dm-crypt uses CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_BACKLOG.  This means the the crypto
driver should internally backlog requests which arrive when the queue is
full and process them later.  Until the crypto hw's queue becomes full,
the driver returns -EINPROGRESS.  When the crypto hw's queue if full,
the driver returns -EBUSY, and if CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_MAY_BACKLOG is set, is
expected to backlog the request and process it when the hardware has
queue space.  At the point when the driver takes the request from the
backlog and starts processing it, it calls the completion function with
a status of -EINPROGRESS.  The completion function is called (for a
second time, in the case of backlogged requests) with a status/err of 0
when a request is done.

Crypto drivers for hardware without hardware queueing use the helpers,
crypto_init_queue(), crypto_enqueue_request(), crypto_dequeue_request()
and crypto_get_backlog() helpers to implement this behaviour correctly,
while others implement this behaviour without these helpers (ccp, for
example).

dm-crypt (before the patch that needs reverting) uses this API
correctly.  It queues up as many requests as the hw queues will allow
(i.e. as long as it gets back -EINPROGRESS from the request function).
Then, when it sees at least one backlogged request (gets -EBUSY), it
waits till that backlogged request is handled (completion gets called
with -EINPROGRESS), and then continues.  The references to
af_alg_wait_for_completion() and af_alg_complete() in that commit's
commit message are irrelevant because those functions only handle one
request at a time, unlink dm-crypt.

The problem is that the Freescale CAAM driver, which that commit
describes as having being tested with, fails to implement the
backlogging behaviour correctly.  In cam_jr_enqueue(), if the hardware
queue is full, it simply returns -EBUSY without backlogging the request.
What the observed deadlock was is not described in the commit message
but it is obviously the wait_for_completion() in crypto_convert() where
dm-crypto would wait for the completion being called with -EINPROGRESS
in the case of backlogged requests.  This completion will never be
completed due to the bug in the CAAM driver.

Commit 0618764c incorrectly made dm-crypt wait for every request,
even when the driver/hardware queues are not full, which means that
dm-crypt will never see -EBUSY.  This means that that commit will cause
a performance regression on all crypto drivers which implement the API
correctly.

Revert it.  Correct backlog handling should be implemented in the CAAM
driver instead.

Cc'ing stable purely because commit 0618764c did.  If for some reason
a stable@ kernel did pick up commit 0618764c it should get reverted.

      xen-pciback: Add name prefix to global 'permissive' variable · 8d102e1d
      Ben Hutchings authored 
      [ Upstream commit 8014bcc8 ]

The variable for the 'permissive' module parameter used to be static
but was recently changed to be extern.  This puts it in the kernel
global namespace if the driver is built-in, so its name should begin
with a prefix identifying the driver.

      xen/events: Clear cpu_evtchn_mask before resuming · 5ea5c920
      Boris Ostrovsky authored 
      [ Upstream commit 5cec9883 ]

When a guest is resumed, the hypervisor may change event channel
assignments. If this happens and the guest uses 2-level events it
is possible for the interrupt to be claimed by wrong VCPU since
cpu_evtchn_mask bits may be stale. This can happen even though
evtchn_2l_bind_to_cpu() attempts to clear old bits: irq_info that
is passed in is not necessarily the original one (from pre-migration
times) but instead is freshly allocated during resume and so any
information about which CPU the channel was bound to is lost.

Thus we should clear the mask during resume.

We also need to make sure that bits for xenstore and console channels
are set when these two subsystems are resumed. While rebind_evtchn_irq()
(which is invoked for both of them on a resume) calls irq_set_affinity(),
the latter will in fact postpone setting affinity until handling the
interrupt. But because cpu_evtchn_mask will have bits for these two
cleared we won't be able to take the interrupt.

With that in mind, we need to bind those two channels explicitly in
rebind_evtchn_irq(). We will keep irq_set_affinity() so that we have a
pass through generic irq affinity code later, in case something needs
to be updated there as well.

(Also replace cpumask_of(0) with cpumask_of(info->cpu) in
rebind_evtchn_irq(): it should be set to zero in preceding
xen_irq_info_evtchn_setup().)

      mm: soft-offline: fix num_poisoned_pages counting on concurrent events · 881241e8
      Naoya Horiguchi authored 
      [ Upstream commit 602498f9 ]

If multiple soft offline events hit one free page/hugepage concurrently,
soft_offline_page() can handle the free page/hugepage multiple times,
which makes num_poisoned_pages counter increased more than once.  This
patch fixes this wrong counting by checking TestSetPageHWPoison for normal
papes and by checking the return value of dequeue_hwpoisoned_huge_page()
for hugepages.

      writeback: use |1 instead of +1 to protect against div by zero · 4e258a15
      Tejun Heo authored 
      [ Upstream commit 464d1387 ]

mm/page-writeback.c has several places where 1 is added to the divisor
to prevent division by zero exceptions; however, if the original
divisor is equivalent to -1, adding 1 leads to division by zero.

There are three places where +1 is used for this purpose - one in
pos_ratio_polynom() and two in bdi_position_ratio().  The second one
in bdi_position_ratio() actually triggered div-by-zero oops on a
machine running a 3.10 kernel.  The divisor is

  x_intercept - bdi_setpoint + 1 == span + 1

span is confirmed to be (u32)-1.  It isn't clear how it ended up that
but it could be from write bandwidth calculation underflow fixed by
c72efb65 ("writeback: fix possible underflow in write bandwidth
calculation").

At any rate, +1 isn't a proper protection against div-by-zero.  This
patch converts all +1 protections to |1.  Note that
bdi_update_dirty_ratelimit() was already using |1 before this patch.

path_openat() jumps to the wrong place after do_tmpfile() - it has
already done path_cleanup() (as part of path_lookupat() called by
do_tmpfile()), so doing that again can lead to double fput().

      mm/memory-failure: call shake_page() when error hits thp tail page · d7259f44
      Naoya Horiguchi authored 
      [ Upstream commit 09789e5d ]

Currently memory_failure() calls shake_page() to sweep pages out from
pcplists only when the victim page is 4kB LRU page or thp head page.
But we should do this for a thp tail page too.

Consider that a memory error hits a thp tail page whose head page is on
a pcplist when memory_failure() runs.  Then, the current kernel skips
shake_pages() part, so hwpoison_user_mappings() returns without calling
split_huge_page() nor try_to_unmap() because PageLRU of the thp head is
still cleared due to the skip of shake_page().

As a result, me_huge_page() runs for the thp, which is broken behavior.

One effect is a leak of the thp.  And another is to fail to isolate the
memory error, so later access to the error address causes another MCE,
which kills the processes which used the thp.

This patch fixes this problem by calling shake_page() for thp tail case.

Fixes: 385de357 ("thp: allow a hwpoisoned head page to be put back to LRU")
