commit ccdb6be9 upstream. The UHCI controllers in Intel chipsets rely on a platform-specific non-PME mechanism for wakeup signalling. They can generate wakeup signals even though they don't support PME. We need to let the USB core know this so that it will enable runtime suspend for UHCI controllers.

commit e8f29bb7 upstream. usb_endpoint_maxp() returns wMaxPacketSize in its raw form. Without taking into consideration that it also contains other bits reserved for isochronous endpoints. This patch fixes one occasion where this is a problem by making sure that we initialize ep->maxpacket only with lower 10 bits of the value returned by usb_endpoint_maxp(). Note that seperate patches will be necessary to audit all call sites of usb_endpoint_maxp() and make sure that usb_endpoint_maxp() only returns lower 10 bits of wMaxPacketSize.

commit 37be6676 upstream. USB-3 does not have any link state that will avoid negotiating a connection with a plugged-in cable but will signal the host when the cable is unplugged. For USB-3 we used to first set the link to Disabled, then to RxDdetect to be able to detect cable connects or disconnects. But in RxDetect the connected device is detected again and eventually enabled. Instead set the link into U3 and disable remote wakeups for the device. This is what Windows does, and what Alan Stern suggested.

commit 8d9eddad upstream. We were setting the qgroup_rescan_running flag to true only after the rescan worker started (which is a task run by a queue). So if a user space task starts a rescan and immediately after asks to wait for the rescan worker to finish, this second call might happen before the rescan worker task starts running, in which case the rescan wait ioctl returns immediatley, not waiting for the rescan worker to finish. This was making the fstest btrfs/022 fail very often.

commit 2a7bf53f upstream. If a log tree has a layout like the following: leaf N: ... item 240 key (282 DIR_LOG_ITEM 0) itemoff 8189 itemsize 8 dir log end 1275809046 leaf N + 1: item 0 key (282 DIR_LOG_ITEM 3936149215) itemoff 16275 itemsize 8 dir log end 18446744073709551615 ... When we pass the value 1275809046 + 1 as the parameter start_ret to the function tree-log.c:find_dir_range() (done by replay_dir_deletes()), we end up with path->slots[0] having the value 239 (points to the last item of leaf N, item 240). Because the dir log item in that position has an offset value smaller than *start_ret (1275809046 + 1) we need to move on to the next leaf, however the logic for that is wrong since it compares the current slot to the number of items in the leaf, which is smaller and therefore we don't lookup for the next leaf but instead we set the slot to point to an item that does not exist, at slot 240, and we later operate on that slot which has unexpected content or in the worst case can result in an invalid memory access (accessing beyond the last page of leaf N's extent buffer). So fix the logic that checks when we need to lookup at the next leaf by first incrementing the slot and only after to check if that slot is beyond the last item of the current leaf.

The problem is caused by btrfs_wq_run_delayed_node() queuing more and more works if the number of delayed items is above BTRFS_DELAYED_BACKGROUND. The worker func (btrfs_async_run_delayed_root) processes at least BTRFS_DELAYED_BATCH items (if they are present in the list). So, the machinery works as expected while the list is almost empty. As soon as it is getting bigger, worker func starts to process more than one item at a time, it takes longer, and the chances to have async_works queued more than needed is getting higher. The problem above is worsened by another flaw of delayed-inode implementation: if async_work was queued in a throttling branch (number of items >= BTRFS_DELAYED_WRITEBACK), corresponding worker func won't quit until the number of items < BTRFS_DELAYED_BACKGROUND / 2. So, it is possible that the func occupies CPU infinitely (up to 30sec in my experiments): while the func is trying to drain the list, the user activity may add more and more items to the list. The patch fixes both problems in straightforward way: refuse queuing too many works in btrfs_wq_run_delayed_node and bail out of worker func if at least BTRFS_DELAYED_WRITEBACK items are processed. Changed in v2: remove support of thresh == NO_THRESHOLD.

commit 777c6e0d upstream. Yu Zhao has noticed that __unregister_cpu_notifier only unregisters its notifiers when HOTPLUG_CPU=y while the registration might succeed even when HOTPLUG_CPU=n if MODULE is enabled. This means that e.g. zswap might keep a stale notifier on the list on the manual clean up during the pool tear down and thus corrupt the list.

commit 48a99272 upstream. Algorithms not compatible with mcryptd could be spawned by mcryptd with a direct crypto_alloc_tfm invocation using a "mcryptd(alg)" name construct. This causes mcryptd to crash the kernel if an arbitrary "alg" is incompatible and not intended to be used with mcryptd. It is an issue if AF_ALG tries to spawn mcryptd(alg) to expose it externally. But such algorithms must be used internally and not be exposed. We added a check to enforce that only internal algorithms are allowed with mcryptd at the time mcryptd is spawning an algorithm.

commit 7f612a7f upstream. Lukasz reported that perf stat counters overflow handling is broken on KNL/SLM. Both these parts have full_width_write set, and that does indeed have a problem. In order to deal with counter wrap, we must sample the counter at at least half the counter period (see also the sampling theorem) such that we can unambiguously reconstruct the count. However commit: 069e0c3c ("perf/x86/intel: Support full width counting") sets the sampling interval to the full period, not half. Fixing that exposes another issue, in that we must not sign extend the delta value when we shift it right; the counter cannot have decremented after all. With both these issues fixed, counter overflow functions correctly again.

commit dbb26055 upstream. David reported a futex/rtmutex state corruption. It's caused by the following problem: CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 l->owner=T1 rt_mutex_lock(l) lock(l->wait_lock) l->owner = T1 | HAS_WAITERS; enqueue(T2) boost() unlock(l->wait_lock) schedule() rt_mutex_lock(l) lock(l->wait_lock) l->owner = T1 | HAS_WAITERS; enqueue(T3) boost() unlock(l->wait_lock) schedule() signal(->T2) signal(->T3) lock(l->wait_lock) dequeue(T2) deboost() unlock(l->wait_lock) lock(l->wait_lock) dequeue(T3) ===> wait list is now empty deboost() unlock(l->wait_lock) lock(l->wait_lock) fixup_rt_mutex_waiters() if (wait_list_empty(l)) { owner = l->owner & ~HAS_WAITERS; l->owner = owner ==> l->owner = T1 } lock(l->wait_lock) rt_mutex_unlock(l) fixup_rt_mutex_waiters() if (wait_list_empty(l)) { owner = l->owner & ~HAS_WAITERS; cmpxchg(l->owner, T1, NULL) ===> Success (l->owner = NULL) l->owner = owner ==> l->owner = T1 } That means the problem is caused by fixup_rt_mutex_waiters() which does the RMW to clear the waiters bit unconditionally when there are no waiters in the rtmutexes rbtree. This can be fatal: A concurrent unlock can release the rtmutex in the fastpath because the waiters bit is not set. If the cmpxchg() gets in the middle of the RMW operation then the previous owner, which just unlocked the rtmutex is set as the owner again when the write takes place after the successfull cmpxchg(). The solution is rather trivial: verify that the owner member of the rtmutex has the waiters bit set before clearing it. This does not require a cmpxchg() or other atomic operations because the waiters bit can only be set and cleared with the rtmutex wait_lock held. It's also safe against the fast path unlock attempt. The unlock attempt via cmpxchg() will either see the bit set and take the slowpath or see the bit cleared and release it atomically in the fastpath. It's remarkable that the test program provided by David triggers on ARM64 and MIPS64 really quick, but it refuses to reproduce on x86-64, while the problem exists there as well. That refusal might explain that this got not discovered earlier despite the bug existing from day one of the rtmutex implementation more than 10 years ago. Thanks to David for meticulously instrumenting the code and providing the information which allowed to decode this subtle problem.

commit 24d0492b upstream. At bootup we run measurements to calculate the best threshold for when we should be using full TLB flushes instead of just flushing a specific amount of TLB entries. This performance test is run over the kernel text segment. But running this TLB performance test on the kernel text segment turned out to crash some SMP machines when the kernel text pages were mapped as huge pages. To avoid those crashes this patch simply skips this test on some SMP machines and calculates an optimal threshold based on the maximum number of available TLB entries and number of online CPUs. On a technical side, this seems to happen: The TLB measurement code uses flush_tlb_kernel_range() to flush specific TLB entries with a page size of 4k (pdtlb 0(sr1,addr)). On UP systems this purge instruction seems to work without problems even if the pages were mapped as huge pages. But on SMP systems the TLB purge instruction is broadcasted to other CPUs. Those CPUs then crash the machine because the page size is not as expected. C8000 machines with PA8800/PA8900 CPUs were not affected by this problem, because the required cache coherency prohibits to use huge pages at all. Sadly I didn't found any documentation about this behaviour, so this finding is purely based on testing with phyiscal SMP machines (A500-44 and J5000, both were 2-way boxes).

commit febe4296 upstream. We have four routines in pacache.S that use temporary alias pages: copy_user_page_asm(), clear_user_page_asm(), flush_dcache_page_asm() and flush_icache_page_asm(). copy_user_page_asm() and clear_user_page_asm() don't purge the TLB entry used for the operation. flush_dcache_page_asm() and flush_icache_page_asm do purge the entry. Presumably, this was thought to optimize TLB use. However, the operation is quite heavy weight on PA 1.X processors as we need to take the TLB lock and a TLB broadcast is sent to all processors. This patch removes the purges from flush_dcache_page_asm() and flush_icache_page_asm.

commit c78e710c upstream. The attached change interchanges the order of purging the TLB and setting the corresponding page table entry. TLB purges are strongly ordered. It occurred to me one night that setting the PTE first might have subtle ordering issues on SMP machines and cause random memory corruption. A TLB lock guards the insertion of user TLB entries. So after the TLB is purged, a new entry can't be inserted until the lock is released. This ensures that the new PTE value is used when the lock is released. Since making this change, no random segmentation faults have been observed on the Debian hppa buildd servers.

commit 409bf7f8 upstream. In eeh_reset_device(), we take the pci_rescan_remove_lock immediately after after we call eeh_reset_pe() to reset the PCI controller. We then call eeh_clear_pe_frozen_state(), which can return an error. In this case, we bail out of eeh_reset_device() without calling pci_unlock_rescan_remove(). Add a call to pci_unlock_rescan_remove() in the eeh_clear_pe_frozen_state() error path so that we don't cause a deadlock later on.

commit f4180439 upstream. When xfrm is applied to TSO/GSO packets, it follows this path: xfrm_output() -> xfrm_output_gso() -> skb_gso_segment() where skb_gso_segment() relies on skb->protocol to function properly. This patch sets skb->protocol to ETH_P_IP before dst_output() is called, fixing a bug where GSO packets sent through a sit tunnel are dropped when xfrm is involved.

commit a0ac402c upstream. In theory we could map other things, but there's a reason that function is called "user_iov". Using anything else (like splice can do) just confuses it.

[ Upstream commit 87a349f9 ] A compile warning is introduced by a commit to fix the find_node(). This patch fix the compile warning by moving find_node() into __init section. Because find_node() is only used by memblock_nid_range() which is only used by a __init add_node_ranges(). find_node() and memblock_nid_range() should also be inside __init section.

However, LDOM mdesc can contain single latency-group with multiple memory latency nodes. If the address doesn't match the best latency node within node_masks[], it should check for an alternative via mdesc. The warning message should only be printed if the address doesn't match any node_masks[] nor within mdesc. To minimize the impact of searching mdesc every time, the last matched mask and index is stored in a variable.
