commit 623c8263 upstream. Some PL2303 devices are known to lose bytes if you change serial settings even to the same values as before. Avoid this by comparing the encoded settings with the previsouly used ones before configuring the device. The common case was fixed by commit bf5e5834 ("pl2303: Fix mode switching regression"), but this problem was still possible to trigger, for instance, by using the TCSETS2-interface to repeatedly request 115201 baud, which gets mapped to 115200 and thus always triggers a settings update.

commit 2def2ef2 upstream. The x32 case for the recvmsg() timout handling is broken: asmlinkage long compat_sys_recvmmsg(int fd, struct compat_mmsghdr __user *mmsg, unsigned int vlen, unsigned int flags, struct compat_timespec __user *timeout) { int datagrams; struct timespec ktspec; if (flags & MSG_CMSG_COMPAT) return -EINVAL; if (COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME) return __sys_recvmmsg(fd, (struct mmsghdr __user *)mmsg, vlen, flags | MSG_CMSG_COMPAT, (struct timespec *) timeout); ... The timeout pointer parameter is provided by userland (hence the __user annotation) but for x32 syscalls it's simply cast to a kernel pointer and is passed to __sys_recvmmsg which will eventually directly dereference it for both reading and writing. Other callers to __sys_recvmmsg properly copy from userland to the kernel first. The bug was introduced by commit ee4fa23c ("compat: Use COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME in net/compat.c") and should affect all kernels since 3.4 (and perhaps vendor kernels if they backported x32 support along with this code). Note that CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI gets enabled at build time and only if CONFIG_X86_X32 is enabled and ld can build x32 executables. Other uses of COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME seem fine. This addresses CVE-2014-0038. Signed-off-by:

commit 8790c71a upstream. As a result of commit 5606e387 ("mm: numa: Migrate on reference policy"), /proc/<pid>/numa_maps prints the mempolicy for any <pid> as "prefer:N" for the local node, N, of the process reading the file. This should only be printed when the mempolicy of <pid> is MPOL_PREFERRED for node N. If the process is actually only using the default mempolicy for local node allocation, make sure "default" is printed as expected. Signed-off-by:

commit 9e6c3b63 upstream. This patch is to fix a compiler warning of __bad_udelay due to a value of >999 being passed as a parameter to udelay() in the function e1000e_phy_has_link_generic(). This affects the gcc compiler when it is given a flag of -O3 and the icc compiler. This patch is also making the change from mdelay() to msleep() in the same function, since it was determined though code inspection that this function is never called in atomic context.

commit 27c73ae7 upstream. Commit 7cb2ef56 ("mm: fix aio performance regression for database caused by THP") can cause dereference of a dangling pointer if split_huge_page runs during PageHuge() if there are updates to the tail_page->private field. Also it is repeating compound_head twice for hugetlbfs and it is running compound_head+compound_trans_head for THP when a single one is needed in both cases. The new code within the PageSlab() check doesn't need to verify that the THP page size is never bigger than the smallest hugetlbfs page size, to avoid memory corruption. A longstanding theoretical race condition was found while fixing the above (see the change right after the skip_unlock label, that is relevant for the compound_lock path too). By re-establishing the _mapcount tail refcounting for all compound pages, this also fixes the below problem: echo 0 >/sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages BUG: Bad page state in process bash pfn:59a01 page:ffffea000139b038 count:0 mapcount:10 mapping: (null) index:0x0 page flags: 0x1c00000000008000(tail) Modules linked in: CPU: 6 PID: 2018 Comm: bash Not tainted 3.12.0+ #25 Hardware name: Bochs Bochs, BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x55/0x76 bad_page+0xd5/0x130 free_pages_prepare+0x213/0x280 __free_pages+0x36/0x80 update_and_free_page+0xc1/0xd0 free_pool_huge_page+0xc2/0xe0 set_max_huge_pages.part.58+0x14c/0x220 nr_hugepages_store_common.isra.60+0xd0/0xf0 nr_hugepages_store+0x13/0x20 kobj_attr_store+0xf/0x20 sysfs_write_file+0x189/0x1e0 vfs_write+0xc5/0x1f0 SyS_write+0x55/0xb0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Signed-off-by:

commit 1431574a upstream. When decompressing into memory, the output buffer length is set to some arbitrarily high value (0x7fffffff) to indicate the output is, virtually, unlimited in size. The problem with this is that some platforms have their physical memory at high physical addresses (0x80000000 or more), and that the output buffer address and its "unlimited" length cannot be added without overflowing. An example of this can be found in inflate_fast(): /* next_out is the output buffer address */ out = strm->next_out - OFF; /* avail_out is the output buffer size. end will overflow if the output * address is >= 0x80000104 */ end = out + (strm->avail_out - 257); This has huge consequences on the performance of kernel decompression, since the following exit condition of inflate_fast() will be always true: } while (in < last && out < end); Indeed, "end" has overflowed and is now always lower than "out". As a result, inflate_fast() will return after processing one single byte of input data, and will thus need to be called an unreasonably high number of times. This probably went unnoticed because kernel decompression is fast enough even with this issue. Nonetheless, adjusting the output buffer length in such a way that the above pointer arithmetic never overflows results in a kernel decompression that is about 3 times faster on affected machines.

commit 5d2f4767 upstream. The only BIOS on record that needs the 14 offset has a bios major version 2 but BMP version 1.01. Another bunch of BIOSes that need the 18 offset have BMP version 2.01 or 5.01 or higher. So instead of looking at the bios major version, look at the BMP version. BIOSes with BMP version 0 do not contain a detectable script, so always return 0 for them. See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68835Reported-by:

commit 9f97e4b1 upstream. Before a write starts we set a bit in the write-intent bitmap. When the write completes we clear that bit if the write was successful to all devices. However if the write wasn't fully successful we should not clear the bit. If the faulty drive is subsequently re-added, the fact that the bit is still set ensure that we will re-write the data that is missing. This logic is mediated by the STRIPE_DEGRADED flag - we only clear the bitmap bit when this flag is not set. Currently we correctly set the flag if a write starts when some devices are failed or missing. But we do *not* set the flag if some device failed during the write attempt. This is wrong and can result in clearing the bit inappropriately. So: set the flag when a write fails. This bug has been present since bitmaps were introduces, so the fix is suitable for any -stable kernel. Reported-by:

commit b25f3e1c upstream. Kexec disables outer cache before jumping to reboot code, but it doesn't flush it explicitly. Flush is done implicitly inside of l2x0_disable(). But some SoC's override default .disable handler and don't flush cache. This may lead to a corrupted memory during Kexec reboot on these platforms. This patch adds cache flush inside of OMAP4 and Highbank outer_cache.disable() handlers to make it consistent with default l2x0_disable(). Acked-by:

commit 7ad228b1 upstream. When the pipe A force quirk is applied the code will attempt to grab a crtc mutex during intel_modeset_setup_hw_state(). If we're already holding all crtc mutexes this will obviously deadlock every time. So instead of using drm_modeset_lock_all() just grab the mode_config.mutex. This is enough to avoid the unlocked mutex warnings from certain lower level functions.

commit fe433907 upstream. When the pl011 is being used for a console, pl011_console_write forces the control register (CR) to enable the UART for transmission and then restores this to the original value afterwards. It does this while holding the port lock. Unfortunately, when the uart is started or shutdown - say in response to userland using the serial device for a terminal - then this updates the control register without any locking. This means we can have pl011_console_write Save CR pl011_startup Initialise CR, e.g. enable receive pl011_console_write Restore old CR with receive not enabled this result is a serial port which doesn't respond to any input. A similar race in reverse could happen when the device is shutdown. We can fix these problems by taking the port lock when updating CR. Signed-off-by:

commit f92f455f upstream. {,set}page_address() are macros if WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL. If !WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL, they're plain C functions.

commit 1cc03eb9 upstream. commit 5d8c71f9 md: raid5 crash during degradation Fixed a crash in an overly simplistic way which could leave R5_WriteError or R5_MadeGood set in the stripe cache for devices for which it is no longer relevant. When those devices are removed and spares added the flags are still set and can cause incorrect behaviour. commit 14a75d3e md/raid5: preferentially read from replacement device if possible.

commit b50c259e upstream. If we discover a bad block when reading we split the request and potentially read some of it from a different device. The code path of this has two bugs in RAID10. 1/ we get a spin_lock with _irq, but unlock without _irq!! 2/ The calculation of 'sectors_handled' is wrong, as can be clearly seen by comparison with raid1.c This leads to at least 2 warnings and a probable crash is a RAID10 ever had known bad blocks.

commit e8b84915 upstream. commit e875ecea md/raid10 record bad blocks as needed during recovery. added code to the "cannot recover this block" path to record a bad block rather than fail the whole recovery. Unfortunately this new case was placed *after* r10bio was freed rather than *before*, yet it still uses r10bio. This is will crash with a null dereference. So move the freeing of r10bio down where it is safe. Fixes: e875eceaReported-by:

commit 8313b8e5 upstream. If an array is started degraded, and then the missing device is found it can be re-added and a minimal bitmap-based recovery will bring it fully up-to-date. If the array is read-only a recovery would not be allowed. But also if the array is read-only and the missing device was present very recently, then there could be no need for any recovery at all, so we simply include the device in the read-only array without any recovery. However... if the missing device was removed a little longer ago it could be missing some updates, but if a bitmap is present it will be conditionally accepted pending a bitmap-based update. We don't currently detect this case properly and will include that old device into the read-only array with no recovery even though it really needs a recovery. This patch keeps track of whether a bitmap-based-recovery is really needed or not in the new Bitmap_sync rdev flag. If that is set, then the device will not be added to a read-only array.

commit 70f2fe3a upstream. There is a bug in the function nilfs_segctor_collect, which results in active data being written to a segment, that is marked as clean. It is possible, that this segment is selected for a later segment construction, whereby the old data is overwritten. The problem shows itself with the following kernel log message: nilfs_sufile_do_cancel_free: segment 6533 must be clean Usually a few hours later the file system gets corrupted: NILFS: bad btree node (blocknr=8748107): level = 0, flags = 0x0, nchildren = 0 NILFS error (device sdc1): nilfs_bmap_last_key: broken bmap (inode number=114660) The issue can be reproduced with a file system that is nearly full and with the cleaner running, while some IO intensive task is running. Although it is quite hard to reproduce. This is what happens: 1. The cleaner starts the segment construction 2. nilfs_segctor_collect is called 3. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_SUFILE and segments are freed 4. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_DAT current segment is full 5. nilfs_segctor_extend_segments is called, which allocates a new segment 6. The new segment is one of the segments freed in step 3 7. nilfs_sufile_cancel_freev is called and produces an error message 8. Loop around and the collection starts again 9. sc_stage is on NILFS_ST_SUFILE and segments are freed including the newly allocated segment, which will contain active data and can be allocated at a later time 10. A few hours later another segment construction allocates the segment and causes file system corruption This can be prevented by simply reordering the statements. If nilfs_sufile_cancel_freev is called before nilfs_segctor_extend_segments the freed segments are marked as dirty and cannot be allocated any more. Signed-off-by:

I was not able to recreate this via normal files. But I'm not sure they are safe. It may just be that the race window is much harder to hit. What seems to have happened (and what I have traced), is the file is being opened at the same time the file or directory is being deleted. As the dentry and inode locks are not held during the path walk, nor is the inodes ref counts being incremented, there is nothing saving these structures from being discarded except for an rcu_read_lock(). The rcu_read_lock() protects against freeing of the inode, but it does not protect freeing of the inode_security_struct. Now if the freeing of the i_security happens with a call_rcu(), and the i_security field of the inode is not changed (it gets freed as the inode gets freed) then there will be no issue here. (Linus Torvalds suggested not setting the field to NULL such that we do not need to check if it is NULL in the permission check). Note, this is a hack, but it fixes the problem at hand. A real fix is to restructure the destroy_inode() to call all the destructor handlers from the RCU callback. But that is a major job to do, and requires a lot of work. For now, we just band-aid this bug with this fix (it works), and work on a more maintainable solution in the future.

commit f9b0e058 upstream. Commit 4f8ad655 "writeback: Refactor writeback_single_inode()" added a condition to skip clean inode. However this is wrong in WB_SYNC_ALL mode because there we also want to wait for outstanding writeback on possibly clean inode. This was causing occasional data corruption issues on NFS because it uses sync_inode() to make sure all outstanding writes are flushed to the server before truncating the inode and with sync_inode() returning prematurely file was sometimes extended back by an outstanding write after it was truncated. So modify the test to also check for pages under writeback in WB_SYNC_ALL mode. Fixes: 4f8ad655Reported-and-tested-by:

The symlink /proc/<pid>/ns/{ipc,mnt,net,pid,user,uts} point to dentries allocated with d_alloc_pseudo that we can mount, and that have interesting names printed out with d_dname. When these files are bind mounted /proc/mounts is not currently displaying the mount point correctly because d_dname is called instead of just displaying the path where the file is mounted. Solve this by adding an explicit check to distinguish mounted pseudo inodes and unmounted pseudo inodes. Unmounted pseudo inodes always use mount of their filesstem as the mnt_root in their path making these two cases easy to distinguish. Acked-by:

commit 62e96cf8 upstream. This patch calls get_write_access in function gfs2_setattr_chown, which merely increases inode->i_writecount for the duration of the function. That will ensure that any file closes won't delete the inode's multi-block reservation while the function is running. It also ensures that a multi-block reservation exists when needed for quota change operations during the chown. Signed-off-by:

commit bee09ed9 upstream. On AMD family 10h we see following error messages while waking up from S3 for all non-boot CPUs leading to a failed IBS initialization: Enabling non-boot CPUs ... smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x1 [Firmware Bug]: cpu 1, try to use APIC500 (LVT offset 0) for vector 0x400, but the register is already in use for vector 0xf9 on another cpu perf: IBS APIC setup failed on cpu #1 process: Switch to broadcast mode on CPU1 CPU1 is up ... ACPI: Waking up from system sleep state S3 Reason for this is that during suspend the LVT offset for the IBS vector gets lost and needs to be reinialized while resuming. The offset is read from the IBSCTL msr. On family 10h the offset needs to be 1 as offset 0 is used for the MCE threshold interrupt, but firmware assings it for IBS to 0 too. The kernel needs to reprogram the vector. The msr is a readonly node msr, but a new value can be written via pci config space access. The reinitialization is implemented for family 10h in setup_ibs_ctl() which is forced during IBS setup. This patch fixes IBS setup after waking up from S3 by adding resume/supend hooks for the boot cpu which does the offset reinitialization. Marking it as stable to let distros pick up this fix.

commit 0ac9b1c2 upstream. Currently, group entity load-weights are initialized to zero. This admits some races with respect to the first time they are re-weighted in earlty use. ( Let g[x] denote the se for "g" on cpu "x". ) Suppose that we have root->a and that a enters a throttled state, immediately followed by a[0]->t1 (the only task running on cpu[0]) blocking: put_prev_task(group_cfs_rq(a[0]), t1) put_prev_entity(..., t1) check_cfs_rq_runtime(group_cfs_rq(a[0])) throttle_cfs_rq(group_cfs_rq(a[0])) Then, before unthrottling occurs, let a[0]->b[0]->t2 wake for the first time: enqueue_task_fair(rq[0], t2) enqueue_entity(group_cfs_rq(b[0]), t2) enqueue_entity_load_avg(group_cfs_rq(b[0]), t2) account_entity_enqueue(group_cfs_ra(b[0]), t2) update_cfs_shares(group_cfs_rq(b[0])) < skipped because b is part of a throttled hierarchy > enqueue_entity(group_cfs_rq(a[0]), b[0]) ... We now have b[0] enqueued, yet group_cfs_rq(a[0])->load.weight == 0 which violates invariants in several code-paths. Eliminate the possibility of this by initializing group entity weight.

commit 927b54fc upstream. __start_cfs_bandwidth calls hrtimer_cancel while holding rq->lock, waiting for the hrtimer to finish. However, if sched_cfs_period_timer runs for another loop iteration, the hrtimer can attempt to take rq->lock, resulting in deadlock. Fix this by ensuring that cfs_b->timer_active is cleared only if the _latest_ call to do_sched_cfs_period_timer is returning as idle. Then __start_cfs_bandwidth can just call hrtimer_try_to_cancel and wait for that to succeed or timer_active == 1. Signed-off-by:
