commit 6fdc6dd9 upstream. The vsyscall32 sysctl can racy against a concurrent fork when it switches from disabled to enabled: arch_setup_additional_pages() if (vdso32_enabled) --> No mapping sysctl.vsysscall32() --> vdso32_enabled = true create_elf_tables() ARCH_DLINFO_IA32 if (vdso32_enabled) { --> Add VDSO entry with NULL pointer Make ARCH_DLINFO_IA32 check whether the VDSO mapping has been set up for the newly forked process or not.

commit c06989da upstream. vdso_enabled can be set to arbitrary integer values via the kernel command line 'vdso32=' parameter or via 'sysctl abi.vsyscall32'. load_vdso32() only maps VDSO if vdso_enabled == 1, but ARCH_DLINFO_IA32 merily checks for vdso_enabled != 0. As a consequence the AT_SYSINFO_EHDR auxiliary vector for the VDSO_ENTRY is emitted with a NULL pointer which causes a segfault when the application tries to use the VDSO. Restrict the valid arguments on the command line and the sysctl to 0 and 1. Fixes: b0b49f26 ("x86, vdso: Remove compat vdso support") Signed-off-by:

commit 1fa839b4 upstream. This fixes Continuous Availability when errors during file reopen are encountered. cifs_user_readv and cifs_user_writev would wait for ever if results of cifs_reopen_file are not stored and for later inspection. In fact, results are checked and, in case of errors, a chain of function calls leading to reads and writes to be scheduled in a separate thread is skipped. These threads will wake up the corresponding waiters once reads and writes are done. However, given the return value is not stored, when rc is checked for errors a previous one (always zero) is inspected instead. This leads to pending reads/writes added to the list, making cifs_user_readv and cifs_user_writev wait for ever. Signed-off-by:

commit f94773b9 upstream. The NV4A (aka NV44A) is an oddity in the family. It only comes in AGP and PCI varieties, rather than a core PCIE chip with a bridge for AGP/PCI as necessary. As a result, it appears that the MMU is also non-functional. For AGP cards, the vast majority of the NV4A lineup, this worked out since we force AGP cards to use the nv04 mmu. However for PCI variants, this did not work. Switching to the NV04 MMU makes it work like a charm. Thanks to mwk for the suggestion. This should be a no-op for NV4A AGP boards, as they were using it already. Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70388Signed-off-by:

commit 77f88796 upstream. Creation of a kthread goes through a couple interlocked stages between the kthread itself and its creator. Once the new kthread starts running, it initializes itself and wakes up the creator. The creator then can further configure the kthread and then let it start doing its job by waking it up. In this configuration-by-creator stage, the creator is the only one that can wake it up but the kthread is visible to userland. When altering the kthread's attributes from userland is allowed, this is fine; however, for cases where CPU affinity is critical, kthread_bind() is used to first disable affinity changes from userland and then set the affinity. This also prevents the kthread from being migrated into non-root cgroups as that can affect the CPU affinity and many other things. Unfortunately, the cgroup side of protection is racy. While the PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flag prevents further migrations, userland can win the race before the creator sets the flag with kthread_bind() and put the kthread in a non-root cgroup, which can lead to all sorts of problems including incorrect CPU affinity and starvation. This bug got triggered by userland which periodically tries to migrate all processes in the root cpuset cgroup to a non-root one. Per-cpu workqueue workers got caught while being created and ended up with incorrected CPU affinity breaking concurrency management and sometimes stalling workqueue execution. This patch adds task->no_cgroup_migration which disallows the task to be migrated by userland. kthreadd starts with the flag set making every child kthread start in the root cgroup with migration disallowed. The flag is cleared after the kthread finishes initialization by which time PF_NO_SETAFFINITY is set if the kthread should stay in the root cgroup. It'd be better to wait for the initialization instead of failing but I couldn't think of a way of implementing that without adding either a new PF flag, or sleeping and retrying from waiting side. Even if userland depends on changing cgroup membership of a kthread, it either has to be synchronized with kthread_create() or periodically repeat, so it's unlikely that this would break anything. v2: Switch to a simpler implementation using a new task_struct bit field suggested by Oleg.

commit 7b596738 upstream. This patch is based on an earlier one submitted by Jon Maxwell with the following commit message: "We recently encountered a bug where a few customers using ibmveth on the same LPAR hit an issue where a TCP session hung when large receive was enabled. Closer analysis revealed that the session was stuck because the one side was advertising a zero window repeatedly. We narrowed this down to the fact the ibmveth driver did not set gso_size which is translated by TCP into the MSS later up the stack. The MSS is used to calculate the TCP window size and as that was abnormally large, it was calculating a zero window, even although the sockets receive buffer was completely empty." We rely on the Virtual I/O Server partition in a pseries environment to provide the MSS through the TCP header checksum field. The stipulation is that users should not disable checksum offloading if rx packet aggregation is enabled through VIOS. Some firmware offerings provide the MSS in the RX buffer. This is signalled by a bit in the RX queue descriptor. Reviewed-by:

commit 7c3945bc upstream. Save the qp context flags byte containing the flag disabling vlan stripping in the RESET to INIT qp transition, rather than in the INIT to RTR transition. Per the firmware spec, the flags in this byte are active in the RESET to INIT transition. As a result of saving the flags in the incorrect qp transition, when switching dynamically from VGT to VST and back to VGT, the vlan remained stripped (as is required for VST) and did not return to not-stripped (as is required for VGT).

commit 291c566a upstream. In function mlx4_cq_completion() and mlx4_cq_event(), the radix_tree_lookup requires a rcu_read_lock. This is mandatory: if another core frees the CQ, it could run the radix_tree_node_rcu_free() call_rcu() callback while its being used by the radix tree lookup function. Additionally, in function mlx4_cq_event(), since we are adding the rcu lock around the radix-tree lookup, we no longer need to take the spinlock. Also, the synchronize_irq() call for the async event eliminates the need for incrementing the cq reference count in mlx4_cq_event(). Other changes: 1. In function mlx4_cq_free(), replace spin_lock_irq with spin_lock: we no longer take this spinlock in the interrupt context. The spinlock here, therefore, simply protects against different threads simultaneously invoking mlx4_cq_free() for different cq's. 2. In function mlx4_cq_free(), we move the radix tree delete to before the synchronize_irq() calls. This guarantees that we will not access this cq during any subsequent interrupts, and therefore can safely free the CQ after the synchronize_irq calls. The rcu_read_lock in the interrupt handlers only needs to protect against corrupting the radix tree; the interrupt handlers may access the cq outside the rcu_read_lock due to the synchronize_irq calls which protect against premature freeing of the cq. 3. In function mlx4_cq_event(), we change the mlx_warn message to mlx4_dbg. 4. We leave the cq reference count mechanism in place, because it is still needed for the cq completion tasklet mechanism.

commit 22547c4c upstream. On a system with a defective USB device connected to an USB hub, an endless sequence of port connect events was observed. The sequence of events as observed is as follows: - Port reports connected event (port status=USB_PORT_STAT_CONNECTION). - Event handler debounces port and resets it by calling hub_port_reset(). - hub_port_reset() calls hub_port_wait_reset() to wait for the reset to complete. - The reset completes, but USB_PORT_STAT_CONNECTION is not immediately set in the port status register. - hub_port_wait_reset() returns -ENOTCONN. - Port initialization sequence is aborted. - A few milliseconds later, the port again reports a connected event, and the sequence repeats. This continues either forever or, randomly, stops if the connection is already re-established when the port status is read. It results in a high rate of udev events. This in turn destabilizes userspace since the above sequence holds the device mutex pretty much continuously and prevents userspace from actually reading the device status. To prevent the problem from happening, let's wait for the connection to be re-established after a port reset. If the device was actually disconnected, the code will still return an error, but it will do so only after the long reset timeout. Cc: Douglas Anderson <dianders@chromium.org> Signed-off-by:

commit 36e1f3d1 upstream. While stressing memory and IO at the same time we changed SMT settings, we were able to consistently trigger deadlocks in the mm system, which froze the entire machine. I think that under memory stress conditions, the large allocations performed by blk_mq_init_rq_map may trigger a reclaim, which stalls waiting on the block layer remmaping completion, thus deadlocking the system. The trace below was collected after the machine stalled, waiting for the hotplug event completion. The simplest fix for this is to make allocations in this path non-reclaimable, with GFP_NOIO. With this patch, We couldn't hit the issue anymore. This should apply on top of Jens's for-next branch cleanly. Changes since v1: - Use GFP_NOIO instead of GFP_NOWAIT.

commit c25f8064 upstream. Commit dda45f70 ("MIPS: Switch to the irq_stack in interrupts") changed both the normal and vectored interrupt handlers. Unfortunately the vectored version, "except_vec_vi_handler", was incorrectly modified to unconditionally jal to plat_irq_dispatch, rather than doing a jalr to the vectored handler that has been set up. This is ok for many platforms which set the vectored handler to plat_irq_dispatch anyway, but will cause problems with platforms that use other handlers.

commit dda45f70 upstream. When enterring interrupt context via handle_int or except_vec_vi, switch to the irq_stack of the current CPU if it is not already in use. The current stack pointer is masked with the thread size and compared to the base or the irq stack. If it does not match then the stack pointer is set to the top of that stack, otherwise this is a nested irq being handled on the irq stack so the stack pointer should be left as it was. The in-use stack pointer is placed in the callee saved register s1. It will be saved to the stack when plat_irq_dispatch is invoked and can be restored once control returns here. Signed-off-by:

commit 510d8636 upstream. The SAVE_SOME macro is used to save the execution context on all exceptions. If an exception occurs while executing user code, the stack is switched to the kernel's stack for the current task, and register $28 is switched to point to the current_thread_info, which is at the bottom of the stack region. If the exception occurs while executing kernel code, the stack is left, and this change ensures that register $28 is not updated. This is the correct behaviour when the kernel can be executing on the separate irq stack, because the thread_info will not be at the base of it. With this change, register $28 is only switched to it's kernel conventional usage of the currrent thread info pointer at the point at which execution enters kernel space. Doing it on every exception was redundant, but OK without an IRQ stack, but will be erroneous once that is introduced. Signed-off-by:

Multiple bisects by various people point to a commit which changes the reclocking strategy for Baytrail to follow its bigger brethen: commit 8fb55197 ("drm/i915: Agressive downclocking on Baytrail") There is also a review comment attached to this commit from Deepak S on avoiding punit access on Cherryview and thus it was excluded on common reclocking path. By taking the same approach and omitting the punit access by not tweaking the thresholds when the hardware has been asked to move into different frequency, considerable gains in stability have been observed. With J1900 box, light render/video load would end up in system hang in usually less than 12 hours. With this patch applied, the cumulative uptime has now been 34 days without issues. To provoke system hang, light loads on both render and bsd engines in parallel have been used: glxgears >/dev/null 2>/dev/null & mpv --vo=vaapi --hwdec=vaapi --loop=inf vid.mp4 So far, author has not witnessed system hang with above load and this patch applied. Reports from the tenacious people at kernel bugzilla are also promising. Considering that the punit access frequency with this patch is considerably less, there is a possibility that this will push the, still unknown, root cause past the triggering point on most loads. But as we now can reliably reproduce the hang independently, we can reduce the pain that users are having and use a static thresholds until a root cause is found. v3: don't break debugfs and simplification (Chris Wilson) References: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=109051 Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Cc: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Cc: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Cc: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@intel.com> Cc: fritsch@xbmc.org Cc: miku@iki.fi Cc: Ezequiel Garcia <ezequiel@vanguardiasur.com.ar> CC: Michal Feix <michal@feix.cz> Cc: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Cc: Deepak S <deepak.s@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jarkko Nikula <jarkko.nikula@linux.intel.com> Acked-by:

commit 0115f6cb upstream. On VTLB+FTLB platforms (such as Loongson-3A R2), FTLB's pagesize is usually configured the same as PAGE_SIZE. In such a case, Huge page entry is not suitable to write in FTLB. Unfortunately, when a huge page is created, its page table entries haven't created immediately. Then the TLB refill handler will fetch an invalid page table entry which has no "HUGE" bit, and this entry may be written to FTLB. Since it is invalid, TLB load/store handler will then use tlbwi to write the valid entry at the same place. However, the valid entry is a huge page entry which isn't suitable for FTLB. Our solution is to modify build_huge_handler_tail. Flush the invalid old entry (whether it is in FTLB or VTLB, this is in order to reduce branches) and use tlbwr to write the valid new entry.

commit 6ef90877 upstream. Commit 08b3c894 ("MIPS: lantiq: Disable xbar fpi burst mode") accidentally requested the resources from the pmu address region instead of the xbar registers region, but the check for the return value of request_mem_region() was wrong. Commit 98ea51cb ("MIPS: Lantiq: Fix another request_mem_region() return code check") fixed the check of the return value of request_mem_region() which made the kernel panics. This patch now makes use of the correct memory region for the cross bar. Fixes: 08b3c894 ("MIPS: lantiq: Disable xbar fpi burst mode") Signed-off-by:

commit 4b5347a2 upstream. When building for microMIPS we need to ensure that the assembler always knows that there is code at the target of a branch or jump. Recent toolchains will fail to link a microMIPS kernel when this isn't the case due to what it thinks is a branch to non-microMIPS code. mips-mti-linux-gnu-ld kernel/built-in.o: .spinlock.text+0x2fc: Unsupported branch between ISA modes. mips-mti-linux-gnu-ld final link failed: Bad value This is due to inline assembly labels in spinlock.h not being followed by an instruction mnemonic, either due to a .subsection pseudo-op or the end of the inline asm block. Fix this with a .insn direction after such labels. Signed-off-by:

commit 2e6c7747 upstream. When a 32-bit kernel is configured to support MIPS64r6 (CPU_MIPS64_R6), MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT won't be selected as it should be because MIPS32_O32 is disabled (o32 is already the default ABI available on 32-bit kernels). This results in userland FP breakage as CP0_Status.FR is read-only 1 since r6 (when an FPU is present) so __enable_fpu() will fail to clear FR. This causes the FPU emulator to get used which will incorrectly emulate 32-bit FPU registers. Force o32 fp64 support in this case by also selecting MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT from CPU_MIPS64_R6 if 32BIT.

commit d09c5373 upstream. Commit fd2d2b19 ("s390: get_user() should zero on failure") intended to fix s390's get_user() implementation which did not zero the target operand if the read from user space faulted. Unfortunately the patch has no effect: the corresponding inline assembly specifies that the operand is only written to ("=") and the previous value is discarded. Therefore the compiler is free to and actually does omit the zero initialization. To fix this simply change the contraint modifier to "+", so the compiler cannot omit the initialization anymore.

commit d82c0d12 upstream. Reorder the operations in decompress_kernel() to ensure initrd is moved to a safe location before the bss section is zeroed. During decompression bss can overlap with the initrd and this can corrupt the initrd contents depending on the size of the compressed kernel (which affects where the initrd is placed by the bootloader) and the size of the bss section of the decompressor. Also use the correct initrd size when checking for overlaps with parmblock. Fixes: 06c0dd72 ([S390] fix boot failures with compressed kernels) Reviewed-by:

commit 48fe9e94 upstream. In the past, there was only one load-with-reservation instruction, lwarx, and if a program attempted a lwarx on a misaligned address, it would take an alignment interrupt and the kernel handler would emulate it as though it was lwzx, which was not really correct, but benign since it is loading the right amount of data, and the lwarx should be paired with a stwcx. to the same address, which would also cause an alignment interrupt which would result in a SIGBUS being delivered to the process. We now have 5 different sizes of load-with-reservation instruction. Of those, lharx and ldarx cause an immediate SIGBUS by luck since their entries in aligninfo[] overlap instructions which were not fixed up, but lqarx overlaps with lhz and will be emulated as such. lbarx can never generate an alignment interrupt since it only operates on 1 byte. To straighten this out and fix the lqarx case, this adds code to detect the l[hwdq]arx instructions and return without fixing them up, resulting in a SIGBUS being delivered to the process.

commit 88b1bf72 upstream. Commit 4c6d9acc ("powerpc/mm: Add hooks for cxl") converted local TLB invalidates to global if the cxl driver is active. This is necessary because the CAPP snoops invalidations to forward them to the PSL on the cxl adapter. However one path was forgotten. native_flush_hash_range() still does local TLB invalidates, as found out the hard way recently. This patch fixes it by following the same logic as previously: if the cxl driver is active, the local TLB invalidates are 'upgraded' to global.
