      powerpc: Don't Oops when accessing /proc/powerpc/lparcfg without hypervisor · f5f6cbb6
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt authored
      /proc/powerpc/lparcfg is an ancient facility (though still actively used)
      which allows access to some informations relative to the partition when
      running underneath a PAPR compliant hypervisor.
      
      It makes no sense on non-pseries machines. However, currently, not only
      can it be created on these if the kernel has pseries support, but accessing
      it on such a machine will crash due to trying to do hypervisor calls.
      
      In fact, it should also not do HV calls on older pseries that didn't have
      an hypervisor either.
      
      Finally, it has the plumbing to be a module but is a "bool" Kconfig option.
      
      This fixes the whole lot by turning it into a machine_device_initcall
      that is only created on pseries, and adding the necessary hypervisor
      check before calling the H_GET_EM_PARMS hypercall

      Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
       "Oleg Nesterov has been working hard in closing all the holes that can
        lead to race conditions between deleting an event and accessing an
        event debugfs file.  This included a fix to the debugfs system (acked
        by Greg Kroah-Hartman).  We think that all the holes have been patched
        and hopefully we don't find more.  I haven't marked all of them for
        stable because I need to examine them more to figure out how far back
        some of the changes need to go.
      
        Along the way, some other fixes have been made.  Alexander Z Lam fixed
        some logic where the wrong buffer was being modifed.
      
        Andrew Vagin found a possible corruption for machines that actually
        allocate cpumask, as a reference to one was being zeroed out by
        mistake.
      
        Dhaval Giani found a bad prototype when tracing is not configured.
      
        And I not only had some changes to help Oleg, but also finally fixed a
        long standing bug that Dave Jones and others have been hitting, where
        a module unload and reload can cause the function tracing accounting
        to get screwed up"

      As comment in include/uapi/asm-generic/fcntl.h described, when
      introducing new O_* bits, we need to check its uniqueness in
      fcntl_init().  But __O_TMPFILE bit is missing.  So fix it.

      fs: Allow unprivileged linkat(..., AT_EMPTY_PATH) aka flink · bb2314b4
      Andy Lutomirski authored
      Every now and then someone proposes a new flink syscall, and this spawns
      a long discussion of whether it would be a security problem.  I think
      that this is missing the point: flink is *already* allowed without
      privilege as long as /proc is mounted -- it's called AT_SYMLINK_FOLLOW.
      
      Now that O_TMPFILE is here, the ability to create a file with O_TMPFILE,
      write it, and link it in is very convenient.  The only problem is that
      it requires that /proc be mounted so that you can do:
      
      linkat(AT_FDCWD, "/proc/self/fd/<tmpfd>", dfd, path, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW)
      
      This sucks -- it's much nicer to do:
      
      linkat(tmpfd, "", dfd, path, AT_EMPTY_PATH)
      
      Let's allow it.
      
      If this turns out to be excessively scary, it we could instead require
      that the inode in question be I_LINKABLE, but this seems pointless given
      the /proc situation

      fs: Fix file mode for O_TMPFILE · e305f48b
      Andy Lutomirski authored
      O_TMPFILE, like O_CREAT, should respect the requested mode and should
      create regular files.
      
      This fixes two bugs: O_TMPFILE required privilege (because the mode
      ended up as 000) and it produced bogus inodes with no type.

      reiserfs: fix deadlock in umount · 672fe15d
      Al Viro authored
      Since remove_proc_entry() started to wait for IO in progress (i.e.
      since 2007 or so), the locking in fs/reiserfs/proc.c became wrong;
      if procfs read happens between the moment when umount() locks the
      victim superblock and removal of /proc/fs/reiserfs/<device>/*,
      we'll get a deadlock - read will wait for s_umount (in sget(),
      called by r_start()), while umount will wait in remove_proc_entry()
      for that read to finish, holding s_umount all along.
      
      Fortunately, the same change allows a much simpler race avoidance -
      all we need to do is remove the procfs entries in the very beginning
      of reiserfs ->kill_sb(); that'll guarantee that pointer to superblock
      will remain valid for the duration for procfs IO, so we don't need
      sget() to keep the sucker alive.  As the matter of fact, we can
      get rid of the home-grown iterator completely, and use single_open()
      instead.

      MIPS: BMIPS: fix hardware interrupt routing for boot CPU != 0 · fcfa66de
      Florian Fainelli authored
      The hardware interrupt routing for boot CPU != 0 is wrong because it
      will route all the hardware interrupts to TP0 which is not the one we
      booted from. Fix this by properly checking which boot CPU we are booting
      from and updating the right interrupt mask for the boot CPU. This fixes
      booting on BCM3368 with bmips_smp_emabled = 0.
