The 'perf probe' command allows kprobe to be inserted at any offset from a function start, which results in adding kprobes to unintended location. (example: perf probe do_fork+10000 is allowed even though size of do_fork is ~904). My previous patch https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/24/42 addressed the case where DWARF info was available for the kernel. This patch fixes the case where perf probe is used on a kernel without debuginfo available. Acked-by:

On old kernels that don't support sample_id_all feature, perf_evlist__id2evsel() returns NULL for non-sampling events. This breaks perf top when multiple events are given on command line. Fix it by using first evsel in the evlist. This will also prevent getting the same (potential) problem in such new tool/ old kernel combo. Suggested-by:

If kzalloc() for TYPE_DATA failed on a given cpu, previous chunk of TYPE_INST will be leaked. Fix it. Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for suggesting this better solution. It should work as long as the initial value of the region is all 0's and that's the case of static (per-cpu) memory allocation. Signed-off-by:

I anticipate some TX side locking fixes coming in the near future for this driver as well. 6) The inline directive fix in Bluetooth which was breaking the build only with very new versions of GCC, from Johan Hedberg. 7) Fix crashes in the ATP CLIP code due to ARP cleanups this merge window, reported by Meelis Roos and fixed by Eric Dumazet. 8) JME driver doesn't flush RX FIFO correctly, from Guo-Fu Tseng. 9) Some ip6_route_output() callers test the return value for NULL, but this never happens as the convention is to return a dst entry with dst->error set. Fixes from RonQing Li. 10) Logitech Harmony 900 should be handled by zaurus driver not cdc_ether, update white lists and black lists accordingly. From Scott Talbert. 11) Receiving from certain kinds of devices there won't be a MAC header, so there is no MAC header to fixup in the IPSEC code, and if we try to do it we'll crash. Fix from Eric Dumazet. 12) Port type array indexing off-by-one in mlx4 driver, fix from Yevgeny Petrilin. 13) Fix regression in link-down handling in davinci_emac which causes all RX descriptors to be freed up and therefore RX to wedge completely, from Christian Riesch. 14) It took two attempts, but ctnetlink soft lockups seem to be cured now, from Pablo Neira Ayuso. 15) Endianness bug fix in ENIC driver, from Santosh Nayak. 16) The long ago conversion of the PPP fragmentation code over to abstracted SKB list handling wasn't perfect, once we get an out of sequence SKB we don't flush the rest of them like we should. From Ben McKeegan. 17) Fix regression of ->ip_summed initialization in sfc driver. From Ben Hutchings. 18) Bluetooth timeout mistakenly using msecs instead of jiffies, from Andrzej Kaczmarek. 19) Using _sync variant of work cancellation results in deadlocks, use the non _sync variants instead. From Andre Guedes. 20) Bluetooth rfcomm code had reference counting problems leading to crashes, fix from Octavian Purdila. 21) The conversion of netem over to classful qdisc handling added two bugs to netem_dequeue(), fixes from Eric Dumazet. 22) Missing pci_iounmap() in ATM Solos driver. Fix from Julia Lawall. 23) b44_pci_exit() should not have __exit tag since it's invoked from non-__exit code. From Nikola Pajkovsky. 24) The conversion of the neighbour hash tables over to RCU added a race, fixed here by adding the necessary reread of tbl->nht, fix from Michel Machado. 25) When we added VF (virtual function) attributes for network device dumps, this potentially bloats up the size of the dump of one network device such that the dump size is too large for the buffer allocated by properly written netlink applications. In particular, if you add 255 VFs to a network device, parts of GLIBC stop working. To fix this, we add an attribute that is used to turn on these extended portions of the network device dump. Sophisticaed applications like 'ip' that want to see this stuff will be changed to set the attribute, whereas things like GLIBC that don't care about VFs simply will not, and therefore won't be busted by the mere presence of VFs on a network device. Thanks to the tireless work of Greg Rose on this fix. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (53 commits) sfc: Fix assignment of ip_summed for pre-allocated skbs ppp: fix 'ppp_mp_reconstruct bad seq' errors enic: Fix endianness bug. gre: fix spelling in comments netfilter: ctnetlink: fix soft lockup when netlink adds new entries (v2) Revert "netfilter: ctnetlink: fix soft lockup when netlink adds new entries" davinci_emac: Do not free all rx dma descriptors during init mlx4_core: Fixing array indexes when setting port types phy: IC+101G and PHY_HAS_INTERRUPT flag netdev/phy/icplus: Correct broken phy_init code ipsec: be careful of non existing mac headers Move Logitech Harmony 900 from cdc_ether to zaurus hso: memsetting wrong data in hso_get_count() netfilter: ip6_route_output() never returns NULL. ethernet/broadcom: ip6_route_output() never returns NULL. ipv6: ip6_route_output() never returns NULL. jme: Fix FIFO flush issue atm: clip: remove clip_tbl ipv4: ping: Fix recvmsg MSG_OOB error handling. rtnetlink: Fix problem with buffer allocation ...

The autofs compat handling fix caused a compile failure when CONFIG_COMPAT isn't defined. Instead of adding random #ifdef'fery in autofs, let's just make the compat helpers earlier to use: without CONFIG_COMPAT, is_compat_task() just hardcodes to zero. We could probably do something similar for a number of other cases where we have #ifdef's in code, but this is the low-hanging fruit. Reported-and-tested-by:

When the autofs protocol version 5 packet type was added in commit 5c0a32fc ("autofs4: add new packet type for v5 communications"), it obvously tried quite hard to be word-size agnostic, and uses explicitly sized fields that are all correctly aligned. However, with the final "char name[NAME_MAX+1]" array at the end, the actual size of the structure ends up being not very well defined: because the struct isn't marked 'packed', doing a "sizeof()" on it will align the size of the struct up to the biggest alignment of the members it has. And despite all the members being the same, the alignment of them is different: a "__u64" has 4-byte alignment on x86-32, but native 8-byte alignment on x86-64. And while 'NAME_MAX+1' ends up being a nice round number (256), the name[] array starts out a 4-byte aligned. End result: the "packed" size of the structure is 300 bytes: 4-byte, but not 8-byte aligned. As a result, despite all the fields being in the same place on all architectures, sizeof() will round up that size to 304 bytes on architectures that have 8-byte alignment for u64. Note that this is *not* a problem for 32-bit compat mode on POWER, since there __u64 is 8-byte aligned even in 32-bit mode. But on x86, 32-bit and 64-bit alignment is different for 64-bit entities, and as a result the structure that has exactly the same layout has different sizes. So on x86-64, but no other architecture, we will just subtract 4 from the size of the structure when running in a compat task. That way we will write the properly sized packet that user mode expects. Not pretty. Sadly, this very subtle, and unnecessary, size difference has been encoded in user space that wants to read packets of *exactly* the right size, and will refuse to touch anything else.

When pre-allocating skbs for received packets, we set ip_summed = CHECKSUM_UNNCESSARY. We used to change it back to CHECKSUM_NONE when the received packet had an incorrect checksum or unhandled protocol. Commit bc8acf2c ('drivers/net: avoid some skb->ip_summed initializations') mistakenly replaced the latter assignment with a DEBUG-only assertion that ip_summed == CHECKSUM_NONE. This assertion is always false, but it seems no-one has exercised this code path in a DEBUG build. Fix this by moving our assignment of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY into efx_rx_packet_gro(). Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes a (mostly cosmetic) bug introduced by the patch 'ppp: Use SKB queue abstraction interfaces in fragment processing' found here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg153312.html The above patch rewrote and moved the code responsible for cleaning up discarded fragments but the new code does not catch every case where this is necessary. This results in some discarded fragments remaining in the queue, and triggering a 'bad seq' error on the subsequent call to ppp_mp_reconstruct. Fragments are discarded whenever other fragments of the same frame have been lost. This can generate a lot of unwanted and misleading log messages. This patch also adds additional detail to the debug logging to make it clearer which fragments were lost and which other fragments were discarded as a result of losses. (Run pppd with 'kdebug 1' option to enable debug logging.) Signed-off-by:

signalfd_cleanup() ensures that ->signalfd_wqh is not used, but this is not enough. eppoll_entry->whead still points to the memory we are going to free, ep_unregister_pollwait()->remove_wait_queue() is obviously unsafe. Change ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) to set eppoll_entry->whead = NULL, change ep_unregister_pollwait() to check pwq->whead != NULL under rcu_read_lock() before remove_wait_queue(). We add the new helper, ep_remove_wait_queue(), for this. This works because sighand_cachep is SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and because ->signalfd_wqh is initialized in sighand_ctor(), not in copy_sighand. ep_unregister_pollwait()->remove_wait_queue() can play with already freed and potentially reused ->sighand, but this is fine. This memory must have the valid ->signalfd_wqh until rcu_read_unlock(). Reported-by:

This patch is intentionally incomplete to simplify the review. It ignores ep_unregister_pollwait() which plays with the same wqh. See the next change. epoll assumes that the EPOLL_CTL_ADD'ed file controls everything f_op->poll() needs. In particular it assumes that the wait queue can't go away until eventpoll_release(). This is not true in case of signalfd, the task which does EPOLL_CTL_ADD uses its ->sighand which is not connected to the file. This patch adds the special event, POLLFREE, currently only for epoll. It expects that init_poll_funcptr()'ed hook should do the necessary cleanup. Perhaps it should be defined as EPOLLFREE in eventpoll. __cleanup_sighand() is changed to do wake_up_poll(POLLFREE) if ->signalfd_wqh is not empty, we add the new signalfd_cleanup() helper. ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) simply does list_del_init(task_list). This make this poll entry inconsistent, but we don't care. If you share epoll fd which contains our sigfd with another process you should blame yourself. signalfd is "really special". I simply do not know how we can define the "right" semantics if it used with epoll. The main problem is, epoll calls signalfd_poll() once to establish the connection with the wait queue, after that signalfd_poll(NULL) returns the different/inconsistent results depending on who does EPOLL_CTL_MOD/signalfd_read/etc. IOW: apart from sigmask, signalfd has nothing to do with the file, it works with the current thread. In short: this patch is the hack which tries to fix the symptoms. It also assumes that nobody can take tasklist_lock under epoll locks, this seems to be true. Note: - we do not have wake_up_all_poll() but wake_up_poll() is fine, poll/epoll doesn't use WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE. - signalfd_cleanup() uses POLLHUP along with POLLFREE, we need a couple of simple changes in eventpoll.c to make sure it can't be "lost".
