When we online the CPU, we get this splat: smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x2 installing Xen timer for CPU 1 BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at /home/konrad/ssd/konrad/linux/mm/slab.c:3179 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 0, name: swapper/1 Pid: 0, comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 3.9.0-rc6upstream-00001-g3884fad #1 Call Trace: [<ffffffff810c1fea>] __might_sleep+0xda/0x100 [<ffffffff81194617>] __kmalloc_track_caller+0x1e7/0x2c0 [<ffffffff81303758>] ? kasprintf+0x38/0x40 [<ffffffff813036eb>] kvasprintf+0x5b/0x90 [<ffffffff81303758>] kasprintf+0x38/0x40 [<ffffffff81044510>] xen_setup_timer+0x30/0xb0 [<ffffffff810445af>] xen_hvm_setup_cpu_clockevents+0x1f/0x30 [<ffffffff81666d0a>] start_secondary+0x19c/0x1a8 The solution to that is use kasprintf in the CPU hotplug path that 'online's the CPU. That is, do it in in xen_hvm_cpu_notify, and remove the call to in xen_hvm_setup_cpu_clockevents. Unfortunatly the later is not a good idea as the bootup path does not use xen_hvm_cpu_notify so we would end up never allocating timer%d interrupt lines when booting. As such add the check for atomic() to continue. CC: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

While we don't use the spinlock interrupt line (see for details commit f10cd522 - xen: disable PV spinlocks on HVM) - we should still do the proper init / deinit sequence. We did not do that correctly and for the CPU init for PVHVM guest we would allocate an interrupt line - but failed to deallocate the old interrupt line. This resulted in leakage of an irq_desc but more importantly this splat as we online an offlined CPU: genirq: Flags mismatch irq 71. 0002cc20 (spinlock1) vs. 0002cc20 (spinlock1) Pid: 2542, comm: init.late Not tainted 3.9.0-rc6upstream #1 Call Trace: [<ffffffff811156de>] __setup_irq+0x23e/0x4a0 [<ffffffff81194191>] ? kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x221/0x250 [<ffffffff811161bb>] request_threaded_irq+0xfb/0x160 [<ffffffff8104c6f0>] ? xen_spin_trylock+0x20/0x20 [<ffffffff813a8423>] bind_ipi_to_irqhandler+0xa3/0x160 [<ffffffff81303758>] ? kasprintf+0x38/0x40 [<ffffffff8104c6f0>] ? xen_spin_trylock+0x20/0x20 [<ffffffff810cad35>] ? update_max_interval+0x15/0x40 [<ffffffff816605db>] xen_init_lock_cpu+0x3c/0x78 [<ffffffff81660029>] xen_hvm_cpu_notify+0x29/0x33 [<ffffffff81676bdd>] notifier_call_chain+0x4d/0x70 [<ffffffff810bb2a9>] __raw_notifier_call_chain+0x9/0x10 [<ffffffff8109402b>] __cpu_notify+0x1b/0x30 [<ffffffff8166834a>] _cpu_up+0xa0/0x14b [<ffffffff816684ce>] cpu_up+0xd9/0xec [<ffffffff8165f754>] store_online+0x94/0xd0 [<ffffffff8141d15b>] dev_attr_store+0x1b/0x20 [<ffffffff81218f44>] sysfs_write_file+0xf4/0x170 [<ffffffff811a2864>] vfs_write+0xb4/0x130 [<ffffffff811a302a>] sys_write+0x5a/0xa0 [<ffffffff8167ada9>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b cpu 1 spinlock event irq -16 smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x2 And if one looks at the /proc/interrupts right after offlining (CPU1): 70: 0 0 xen-percpu-ipi spinlock0 71: 0 0 xen-percpu-ipi spinlock1 77: 0 0 xen-percpu-ipi spinlock2 There is the oddity of the 'spinlock1' still being present.

In the PVHVM path when we do CPU online/offline path we would leak the timer%d IRQ line everytime we do a offline event. The online path (xen_hvm_setup_cpu_clockevents via x86_cpuinit.setup_percpu_clockev) would allocate a new interrupt line for the timer%d. But we would still use the old interrupt line leading to: kernel BUG at /home/konrad/ssd/konrad/linux/kernel/hrtimer.c:1261! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff810b9e21>] [<ffffffff810b9e21>] hrtimer_interrupt+0x261/0x270 .. snip.. <IRQ> [<ffffffff810445ef>] xen_timer_interrupt+0x2f/0x1b0 [<ffffffff81104825>] ? stop_machine_cpu_stop+0xb5/0xf0 [<ffffffff8111434c>] handle_irq_event_percpu+0x7c/0x240 [<ffffffff811175b9>] handle_percpu_irq+0x49/0x70 [<ffffffff813a74a3>] __xen_evtchn_do_upcall+0x1c3/0x2f0 [<ffffffff813a760a>] xen_evtchn_do_upcall+0x2a/0x40 [<ffffffff8167c26d>] xen_hvm_callback_vector+0x6d/0x80 <EOI> [<ffffffff81666d01>] ? start_secondary+0x193/0x1a8 [<ffffffff81666cfd>] ? start_secondary+0x18f/0x1a8 There is also the oddity (timer1) in the /proc/interrupts after offlining CPU1: 64: 1121 0 xen-percpu-virq timer0 78: 0 0 xen-percpu-virq timer1 84: 0 2483 xen-percpu-virq timer2 This patch fixes it.

eboot.o and efi_stub_$(BITS).o didn't get added to "targets", and hence their .cmd files don't get included by the build machinery, leading to the files always getting rebuilt. Rather than adding the two files individually, take the opportunity and add $(VMLINUX_OBJS) to "targets" instead, thus allowing the assignment at the top of the file to be shrunk quite a bit. At the same time, remove a pointless flags override line - the variable assigned to was misspelled anyway, and the options added are meaningless for assembly sources.

Commit 130549fe ("netfilter: reset nf_trace in nf_reset") added code to reset nf_trace in nf_reset(). This is wrong and unnecessary. nf_reset() is used in the following cases: - when passing packets up the the socket layer, at which point we want to release all netfilter references that might keep modules pinned while the packet is queued. nf_trace doesn't matter anymore at this point. - when encapsulating or decapsulating IPsec packets. We want to continue tracing these packets after IPsec processing. - when passing packets through virtual network devices. Only devices on that encapsulate in IPv4/v6 matter since otherwise nf_trace is not used anymore. Its not entirely clear whether those packets should be traced after that, however we've always done that. - when passing packets through virtual network devices that make the packet cross network namespace boundaries. This is the only cases where we clearly want to reset nf_trace and is also what the original patch intended to fix. Add a new function nf_reset_trace() and use it in dev_forward_skb() to fix this properly. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch changes GFS2's discard issuing code so that it calls function sb_issue_discard rather than blkdev_issue_discard. The code was calling blkdev_issue_discard and specifying the correct sector offset and sector size, but blkdev_issue_discard expects these values to be in terms of 512 byte sectors, even if the native sector size for the device is different. Calling sb_issue_discard with the BLOCK size instead ensures the correct block-to-512b-sector translation. I verified that "minlen" is specified in blocks, so comparing it to a number of blocks is correct.

A recent patch to fix the dm cache target's writethrough mode extended the bio's front_pad to include a 1056-byte struct dm_bio_details. Writeback mode doesn't need this, so this patch reduces the per_bio_data_size to 16 bytes in this case instead of 1096. The dm_bio_details structure was added in "dm cache: fix writes to cache device in writethrough mode" which fixed commit e2e74d61 ("dm cache: fix race in writethrough implementation"). In writeback mode we avoid allocating the writethrough-specific members of the per_bio_data structure (the dm_bio_details structure included).

The dm-cache writethrough strategy introduced by commit e2e74d61 ("dm cache: fix race in writethrough implementation") issues a bio to the origin device, remaps and then issues the bio to the cache device. This more conservative in-series approach was selected to favor correctness over performance (of the previous parallel writethrough). However, this in-series implementation that reuses the same bio to write both the origin and cache device didn't take into account that the block layer's req_bio_endio() modifies a completing bio's bi_sector and bi_size. So the new writethrough strategy needs to preserve these bio fields, and restore them before submission to the cache device, otherwise nothing gets written to the cache (because bi_size is 0). This patch adds a struct dm_bio_details field to struct per_bio_data, and uses dm_bio_record() and dm_bio_restore() to ensure the bio is restored before reissuing to the cache device. Adding such a large structure to the per_bio_data is not ideal but we can improve this later, for now correctness is the important thing. This problem initially went unnoticed because the dm-cache test-suite uses a linear DM device for the dm-cache device's origin device. Writethrough worked as expected because DM submits a *clone* of the original bio, so the original bio which was reused for the cache was never touched. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

SA_RESTORER used to be defined as 0x04000000 but only the O32 ABI ever supported its use and no libc was using it, so the entire sa-restorer functionality was removed with lmo commit 39bffc12c3580ab [Zap sa_restorer.] for 2.5.48 retaining only the SA_RESTORER definition as a reminder to avoid accidental reuse of the mask bit. Upstream cdef9602 [signal: always clear sa_restorer on execve] adds code that assumes sa_sigaction has an sa_restorer field, if SA_RESTORER is defined which would break MIPS. So remove the SA_RESTORER definition before the v3.8.4 merge. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> (cherry picked from commit 17da8d63add23830892ac4dc2cbb3b5d4ffb79a8)

Commit 7517de34 ("MIPS: Alchemy: Redo PCI as platform driver") added a reference to CONFIG_DEBUG_PCI. Change it to CONFIG_PCI_DEBUG, as that is a valid Kconfig macro. Also add a newline to a debugging printk that this fix enables.

ixgbe_notify_dca cannot be called before driver registration because it expects driver's klist_devices to be allocated and initialized.

It was reported that the following LSB test case failed https://lsbbugs.linuxfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=2144 because we were not coallescing unix stream messages when the application was expecting us to. The problem was that the first send was before the socket was accepted and thus sock->sk_socket was NULL in maybe_add_creds, and the second send after the socket was accepted had a non-NULL value for sk->socket and thus we could tell the credentials were not needed so we did not bother. The unnecessary credentials on the first message cause unix_stream_recvmsg to start verifying that all messages had the same credentials before coallescing and then the coallescing failed because the second message had no credentials. Ignoring credentials when we don't care in unix_stream_recvmsg fixes a long standing pessimization which would fail to coallesce messages when reading from a unix stream socket if the senders were different even if we did not care about their credentials. I have tested this and verified that the in the LSB test case mentioned above that the messages do coallesce now, while the were failing to coallesce without this change.

This reverts commit 14134f65. The problem that the above patch was meant to address is that af_unix messages are not being coallesced because we are sending unnecesarry credentials. Not sending credentials in maybe_add_creds totally breaks unconnected unix domain sockets that wish to send credentails to other sockets. In practice this break some versions of udev because they receive a message and the sending uid is bogus so they drop the message. Reported-by: Sven Joachim <svenjoac@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
