Currently functions in zsmalloc.c does not arranged in a readable and reasonable sequence. With the more and more functions added, we may meet below inconvenience. For example: Current functions: void zs_init() { } static void get_maxobj_per_zspage() { } Then I want to add a func_1() which is called from zs_init(), and this new added function func_1() will used get_maxobj_per_zspage() which is defined below zs_init(). void func_1() { get_maxobj_per_zspage() } void zs_init() { func_1() } static void get_maxobj_per_zspage() { } This will cause compiling issue. So we must add a declaration: static void get_maxobj_per_zspage(); before func_1() if we do not put get_maxobj_per_zspage() before func_1(). In addition, puting module_[init|exit] functions at the bottom of the file conforms to our habit. So, this patch ajusts function sequence as: /* helper functions */ ... obj_location_to_handle() ... /* Some exported functions */ ... zs_map_object() zs_unmap_object() zs_malloc() zs_free() zs_init() zs_exit() Signed-off-by: Ganesh Mahendran <opensource.ganesh@gmail.com> Cc: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> Acked-by: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

For buffer write, page lock will be got in write_begin and released in write_end, in ocfs2_write_end_nolock(), before it unlock the page in ocfs2_free_write_ctxt(), it calls ocfs2_run_deallocs(), this will ask for the read lock of journal->j_trans_barrier. Holding page lock and ask for journal->j_trans_barrier breaks the locking order. This will cause a deadlock with journal commit threads, ocfs2cmt will get write lock of journal->j_trans_barrier first, then it wakes up kjournald2 to do the commit work, at last it waits until done. To commit journal, kjournald2 needs flushing data first, it needs get the cache page lock. Since some ocfs2 cluster locks are holding by write process, this deadlock may hung the whole cluster. unlock pages before ocfs2_run_deallocs() can fix the locking order, also put unlock before ocfs2_commit_trans() to make page lock is unlocked before j_trans_barrier to preserve unlocking order.

When running ocfs2 test suite multiple nodes reflink stress test, for a 4 nodes cluster, every unlink() for refcounted file needs about 700s. The slow unlink is caused by the contention of refcount tree lock since all nodes are unlink files using the same refcount tree. When the unlinking file have many extents(over 1600 in our test), most of the extents has refcounted flag set. In ocfs2_commit_truncate(), it will execute the following call trace for every extents. This means it needs get and released refcount tree lock about 1600 times. And when several nodes are do this at the same time, the performance will be very low. ocfs2_remove_btree_range() -- ocfs2_lock_refcount_tree() ---- ocfs2_refcount_lock() ------ __ocfs2_cluster_lock() ocfs2_refcount_lock() is costly, move it to ocfs2_commit_truncate() to do lock/unlock once can improve a lot performance.

This patch include CMA info (CMATotal, CMAFree) in /proc/meminfo. Currently, in a CMA enabled system, if somebody wants to know the total CMA size declared, there is no way to tell, other than the dmesg or /var/log/messages logs. With this patch we are showing the CMA info as part of meminfo, so that it can be determined at any point of time. This will be populated only when CMA is enabled. Below is the sample output from a ARM based device with RAM:512MB and CMA:16MB. MemTotal: 471172 kB MemFree: 111712 kB MemAvailable: 271172 kB . . .

When the system boots up, in the dmesg logs we can see the memory statistics along with total reserved as below. Memory: 458840k/458840k available, 65448k reserved, 0K highmem When CMA is enabled, still the total reserved memory remains the same. However, the CMA memory is not considered as reserved. But, when we see /proc/meminfo, the CMA memory is part of free memory. This creates confusion. This patch corrects the problem by properly subtracting the CMA reserved memory from the total reserved memory in dmesg logs. Below is the dmesg snapshot from an arm based device with 512MB RAM and 12MB single CMA region. Before this change: Memory: 458840k/458840k available, 65448k reserved, 0K highmem After this change: Memory: 458840k/458840k available, 53160k reserved, 12288k cma-reserved, 0K highmem Signed-off-by: Pintu Kumar <pintu.k@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Vishnu Pratap Singh <vishnu.ps@samsung.com> Acked-by: Michal Nazarewicz <mina86@mina86.com> Cc: Rafael Aquini <aquini@redhat.com> Cc: Jerome Marchand <jmarchan@redhat.com> Cc: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@samsung.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Longname is not correctly handled by hfsplus driver. If an attempt to create a longname(>255) file/directory is made, it succeeds by creating a file/directory with HFSPLUS_MAX_STRLEN and incorrect catalog key. Thus leaving the volume in an inconsistent state. This patch fixes this issue. Although lookup is always called first to create a negative entry, so just doing a check in lookup would probably fix this issue. I choose to propagate error to other iops as well. Please NOTE: I have factored out hfsplus_cat_build_key_with_cnid from hfsplus_cat_build_key, to avoid unncessary branching. Thanks a lot.

Eric W. Biederman authored
While reviewing the code of umount_tree I realized that when we append to a preexisting unmounted list we do not change pprev of the former first item in the list. Which means later in namespace_unlock hlist_del_init(&mnt->mnt_hash) on the former first item of the list will stomp unmounted.first leaving it set to some random mount point which we are likely to free soon. This isn't likely to hit, but if it does I don't know how anyone could track it down. [ This happened because we don't have all the same operations for hlist's as we do for normal doubly-linked lists. In particular, list_splice() is easy on our standard doubly-linked lists, while hlist_splice() doesn't exist and needs both start/end entries of the hlist. And commit 38129a13 incorrectly open-coded that missing hlist_splice(). We should think about making these kinds of "mindless" conversions easier to get right by adding the missing hlist helpers - Linus ] Fixes: 38129a13 switch mnt_hash to hlist Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Commit bc96f648 (xen-netback: make feature-rx-notify mandatory) incorrectly assumed that there were no frontends in use that did not support this feature. But the frontend driver in MiniOS does not and since this is used by (qemu) stubdoms, these stopped working. Netback sort of works as-is in this mode except: - If there are no Rx requests and the internal Rx queue fills, only the drain timeout will wake the thread. The default drain timeout of 10 s would give unacceptable pauses. - If an Rx stall was detected and the internal Rx queue is drained, then the Rx thread would never wake. Handle these two cases (when feature-rx-notify is disabled) by: - Reducing the drain timeout to 30 ms. - Disabling Rx stall detection.

Load balancing can be triggered in the critical sections protected by srmmu_context_spinlock in destroy_context() and switch_mm() and can hang the cpu waiting for the rq lock of another cpu that in turn has called switch_mm hangning on srmmu_context_spinlock leading to deadlock. So, disable interrupt while taking srmmu_context_spinlock in destroy_context() and switch_mm() so we don't deadlock.

Currently, searching for a socket to add a reference to is not synchronized with deletion of sockets. This can result in use after free if there is another operation that is removing a socket at the same time. Solving this requires both holding the appropriate lock and checking the refcount to ensure that it has not already hit zero. Inspired by a related (but not exactly the same) issue in the VXLAN driver.

Sockets aren't currently removed from the the global list when they are destroyed. In addition, offload handlers need to be cleaned up as well.

Each mmap Netlink frame contains a status field which indicates whether the frame is unused, reserved, contains data or needs to be skipped. Both loads and stores may not be reordeded and must complete before the status field is changed and another CPU might pick up the frame for use. Use an smp_mb() to cover needs of both types of callers to netlink_set_status(), callers which have been reading data frame from the frame, and callers which have been filling or releasing and thus writing to the frame. - Example code path requiring a smp_rmb(): memcpy(skb->data, (void *)hdr + NL_MMAP_HDRLEN, hdr->nm_len); netlink_set_status(hdr, NL_MMAP_STATUS_UNUSED); - Example code path requiring a smp_wmb(): hdr->nm_uid = from_kuid(sk_user_ns(sk), NETLINK_CB(skb).creds.uid); hdr->nm_gid = from_kgid(sk_user_ns(sk), NETLINK_CB(skb).creds.gid); netlink_frame_flush_dcache(hdr); netlink_set_status(hdr, NL_MMAP_STATUS_VALID); Fixes: f9c228 ("netlink: implement memory mapped recvmsg()") Reported-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.

Checking the file f_count and the nlk->mapped count is not completely sufficient to prevent the mmap'd area contents from changing from under us during netlink mmap sendmsg() operations. Be careful to sample the header's length field only once, because this could change from under us as well. Fixes: 5fd96123 ("netlink: implement memory mapped sendmsg()") Signed-off-by: David S.

Pull user namespace related fixes from Eric Biederman: "As these are bug fixes almost all of thes changes are marked for backporting to stable. The first change (implicitly adding MNT_NODEV on remount) addresses a regression that was created when security issues with unprivileged remount were closed. I go on to update the remount test to make it easy to detect if this issue reoccurs. Then there are a handful of mount and umount related fixes. Then half of the changes deal with the a recently discovered design bug in the permission checks of gid_map. Unix since the beginning has allowed setting group permissions on files to less than the user and other permissions (aka ---rwx---rwx). As the unix permission checks stop as soon as a group matches, and setgroups allows setting groups that can not later be dropped, results in a situtation where it is possible to legitimately use a group to assign fewer privileges to a process. Which means dropping a group can increase a processes privileges. The fix I have adopted is that gid_map is now no longer writable without privilege unless the new file /proc/self/setgroups has been set to permanently disable setgroups. The bulk of user namespace using applications even the applications using applications using user namespaces without privilege remain unaffected by this change. Unfortunately this ix breaks a couple user space applications, that were relying on the problematic behavior (one of which was tools/selftests/mount/unprivileged-remount-test.c). To hopefully prevent needing a regression fix on top of my security fix I rounded folks who work with the container implementations mostly like to be affected and encouraged them to test the changes. > So far nothing broke on my libvirt-lxc test bed. :-) > Tested with openSUSE 13.2 and libvirt 1.2.9. > Tested-by: Richard Weinberger <richard@nod.at> > Tested on Fedora20 with libvirt 1.2.11, works fine. > Tested-by: Chen Hanxiao <chenhanxiao@cn.fujitsu.com> > Ok, thanks - yes, unprivileged lxc is working fine with your kernels. > Just to be sure I was testing the right thing I also tested using > my unprivileged nsexec testcases, and they failed on setgroup/setgid > as now expected, and succeeded there without your patches. > Tested-by: Serge Hallyn <serge.hallyn@ubuntu.com> > I tested this with Sandstorm.

The optimization for filtering out extended inquiry results, advertising reports or scan response data based on provided UUID list has a logic bug. In case no match is found in the advertising data, the scan response is ignored and not checked against the filter. This will lead to events being filtered wrongly. Change the code to actually only drop the events when the scan response data is not present. If it is present, it needs to be checked against the provided filter. The patch is a bit more complex than it needs to be. That is because it also fixes this compiler warning that some gcc versions produce. CC net/bluetooth/mgmt.o net/bluetooth/mgmt.c: In function ‘mgmt_device_found’: net/bluetooth/mgmt.c:7028:7: warning: ‘match’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] bool match; ^ It seems that gcc can not clearly figure out the context of the match variable. So just change the branches for the extended inquiry response and advertising data around so that it is clear.
