A recent fix from Chen Yucong, commit 0bc1f8b0 ("hwpoison: fix the handling path of the victimized page frame that belong to non-LRU") rejects going into unmapping operation for hugetlbfs/thp pages, which results in failing error containing on such pages. This patch fixes it. With this patch, hwpoison functional tests in mce-test testsuite pass.

This is a bug fix for the situation when function tsi721_desc_get() fails to obtain a free transaction descriptor. The bug usually results in a memory access crash dump when data transfer scatter-gather list has more entries than size of hardware buffer descriptors ring. This fix ensures that error is properly returned to a caller instead of an invalid entry. This patch is applicable to kernel versions starting from v3.5.

The page allocator relies on __GFP_WAIT to determine if ALLOC_CPUSET should be set in allocflags. ALLOC_CPUSET controls if a page allocation should be restricted only to the set of allowed cpuset mems. Transparent hugepages clears __GFP_WAIT when defrag is disabled to prevent the fault path from using memory compaction or direct reclaim. Thus, it is unfairly able to allocate outside of its cpuset mems restriction as a side-effect. This patch ensures that ALLOC_CPUSET is only cleared when the gfp mask is truly GFP_ATOMIC by verifying it is also not a thp allocation.

Under memory pressure, it is possible for dirty_thresh, calculated by global_dirty_limits() in balance_dirty_pages(), to equal zero. Then, if strictlimit is true, bdi_dirty_limits() tries to resolve the proportion: bdi_bg_thresh : bdi_thresh = background_thresh : dirty_thresh by dividing by zero.

Pull Exynos platform DT fix from Grant Likely: "Device tree Exynos bug fix for v3.16-rc7 This bug fix has been brewing for a while. I hate sending it to you so late, but I only got confirmation that it solves the problem this past weekend. The diff looks big for a bug fix, but the majority of it is only executed in the Exynos quirk case. Unfortunately it required splitting early_init_dt_scan() in two and adding quirk handling in the middle of it on ARM. Exynos has buggy firmware that puts bad data into the memory node. Commit 1c2f87c2 ("ARM: Get rid of meminfo") exposed the bug by dropping the artificial upper bound on the number of memory banks that can be added. Exynos fails to boot after that commit. This branch fixes it by splitting the early DT parse function and inserting a fixup hook.

arch_gnttab_map_frames() and arch_gnttab_unmap_frames() are called in atomic context but were calling alloc_vm_area() which might sleep. Also, if a driver attempts to allocate a grant ref from an interrupt and the table needs expanding, then the CPU may already by in lazy MMU mode and apply_to_page_range() will BUG when it tries to re-enable lazy MMU mode. These two functions are only used in PV guests. Introduce arch_gnttab_init() to allocates the virtual address space in advance. Avoid the use of apply_to_page_range() by using saving and using the array of PTE addresses from the alloc_vm_area() call (which ensures that the required page tables are pre-allocated).

Will Deacon authored
If the physical address of GICV isn't page-aligned, then we end up creating a stage-2 mapping of the page containing it, which causes us to map neighbouring memory locations directly into the guest. As an example, consider a platform with GICV at physical 0x2c02f000 running a 64k-page host kernel. If qemu maps this into the guest at 0x80010000, then guest physical addresses 0x80010000 - 0x8001efff will map host physical region 0x2c020000 - 0x2c02efff. Accesses to these physical regions may cause UNPREDICTABLE behaviour, for example, on the Juno platform this will cause an SError exception to EL3, which brings down the entire physical CPU resulting in RCU stalls / HYP panics / host crashing / wasted weeks of debugging. SBSA recommends that systems alias the 4k GICV across the bounding 64k region, in which case GICV physical could be described as 0x2c020000 in the above scenario. This patch fixes the problem by failing the vgic probe if the physical base address or the size of GICV aren't page-aligned. Note that this generated a warning in dmesg about freeing enabled IRQs, so I had to move the IRQ enabling later in the probe.

Commit 1c2f87c2 (ARM: 8025/1: Get rid of meminfo) dropped the upper bound on the number of memory banks that can be added as there was no technical need in the kernel. It turns out though, some bootloaders (specifically the arndale-octa exynos boards) may pass invalid memory information and rely on the kernel to not parse this data. This is a bug in the bootloader but we still need to work around this. Work around this by introducing a dt_fixup function. This function gets called before the flattened devicetree is scanned for memory and the like. In this fixup function for exynos, limit the maximum number of memory regions in the devicetree.

Florian Fainelli authored
Commit 87aa9f9c ("net: phy: consolidate PHY reset in phy_init_hw()") moved the call to phy_scan_fixups() in phy_init_hw() after a software reset is performed. By the time phy_init_hw() is called in phy_device_register(), no driver has been bound to this PHY yet, so all the checks in phy_init_hw() against the PHY driver and the PHY driver's config_init function will return 0. We will therefore never call phy_scan_fixups() as we should. Fix this by calling phy_scan_fixups() and check for its return value to restore the intended functionality. This broke PHY drivers which do register an early PHY fixup callback to intercept the PHY probing and do things like changing the 32-bits unique PHY identifier when a pseudo-PHY address has been used, as well as board-specific PHY fixups that need to be applied during driver probe time.

After this report there was no usual "Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference" and this gave me a clue that address 0 is mapped and contains valid socket address structure in it. This bug was introduced in f3d33426 (net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logic). Commit message states that: "Set msg->msg_name = NULL if user specified a NULL in msg_name but had a non-null msg_namelen in verify_iovec/verify_compat_iovec. This doesn't affect sendto as it would bail out earlier while trying to copy-in the address." But in fact this affects sendto when address 0 is mapped and contains socket address structure in it. In such case copy-in address will succeed, verify_iovec() function will successfully exit with msg->msg_namelen > 0 and msg->msg_name == NULL. This patch fixes it by setting msg_namelen to 0 if msg_name == NULL.

Commit 9188883f (ARM: dts: Enable twl4030 off-idle configuration for selected omaps) allowed n900 to cut off core voltages during off-idle. This however caused a regression where twl regulator vaux1 was not getting enabled for the LCD panel as we are not requesting it for the panel. Turns out quite a few devices on n900 are using vaux1, and we need to either stop idling it, or add proper regulator_get calls for all users.

In "Counting Packets Sent Between Arbitrary Internet Hosts", Jeffrey and Jedidiah describe ways exploiting linux IP identifier generation to infer whether two machines are exchanging packets. With commit 73f156a6 ("inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_count"), we changed IP id generation, but this does not really prevent this side-channel technique. This patch adds a random amount of perturbation so that IP identifiers for a given destination [1] are no longer monotonically increasing after an idle period. Note that prandom_u32_max(1) returns 0, so if generator is used at most once per jiffy, this patch inserts no hole in the ID suite and do not increase collision probability. This is jiffies based, so in the worst case (HZ=1000), the id can rollover after ~65 seconds of idle time, which should be fine. We also change the hash used in __ip_select_ident() to not only hash on daddr, but also saddr and protocol, so that ICMP probes can not be used to infer information for other protocols. For IPv6, adds saddr into the hash as well, but not nexthdr. If I ping the patched target, we can see ID are now hard to predict. 21:57:11.008086 IP (...)

The sunvnet driver doesn't check whether or not a port is connected when transmitting packets, which results in failures if a port fails to connect (e.g., due to a version mismatch). The original code also assumes unnecessarily that the first port is up and a switch, even though there is a flag for switch ports. This patch only matches a port if it is connected, and otherwise uses the switch_port flag to send the packet to a switch port that is up.

Pull powerpc fixes from Ben Herrenschmidt: "Here are 3 more small powerpc fixes that should still go into .16. One is a recent regression (MMCR2 business), the other is a trivial endian fix without which FW updates won't work on LE in IBM machines, and the 3rd one turns a BUG_ON into a WARN_ON which is definitely a LOT more friendly especially when the whole thing is about retrieving error logs ..." * 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: powerpc: Fix endianness of flash_block_list in rtas_flash powerpc/powernv: Change BUG_ON to WARN_ON in elog code powerpc/perf: Fix MMCR2 handling for EBB

Fix the same alignment bug as in arm64 - we need to pass residue unprocessed bytes as the last argument to blkcipher_walk_done.

cryptsetup fails on arm64 when using kernel encryption via AF_ALG socket. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1122937 The bug is caused by incorrect handling of unaligned data in arch/arm64/crypto/aes-glue.c. Cryptsetup creates a buffer that is aligned on 8 bytes, but not on 16 bytes. It opens AF_ALG socket and uses the socket to encrypt data in the buffer. The arm64 crypto accelerator causes data corruption or crashes in the scatterwalk_pagedone. This patch fixes the bug by passing the residue bytes that were not processed as the last parameter to blkcipher_walk_done.

The function rtas_flash_firmware passes the address of a data structure, flash_block_list, when making the update-flash-64-and-reboot rtas call. While the endianness of the address is handled correctly, the endianness of the data is not. This patch ensures that the data in flash_block_list is big endian when passed to rtas on little endian hosts.

We can continue to read the error log (up to MAX size) even if we get the elog size more than MAX size. Hence change BUG_ON to WARN_ON. Also updated error message.

Michel Dänzer and a couple of other people reported inexplicable random oopses in the scheduler, and the cause turns out to be gcc mis-compiling the load_balance() function when debugging is enabled. The gcc bug apparently goes back to gcc-4.5, but slight optimization changes means that it now showed up as a problem in 4.9.0 and 4.9.1. The instruction scheduling problem causes gcc to schedule a spill operation to before the stack frame has been created, which in turn can corrupt the spilled value if an interrupt comes in. There may be other effects of this bug too, but that's the code generation problem seen in Michel's case. This is fixed in current gcc HEAD, but the workaround as suggested by Markus Trippelsdorf is pretty simple: use -fno-var-tracking-assignments when compiling the kernel, which disables the gcc code that causes the problem. This can result in slightly worse debug information for variable accesses, but that is infinitely preferable to actual code generation problems. Doing this unconditionally (not just for CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO) also allows non-debug builds to verify that the debug build would be identical: we can do export GCC_COMPARE_DEBUG=1 to make gcc internally verify that the result of the build is independent of the "-g" flag (it will make the compiler build everything twice, toggling the debug flag, and compare the results). Without the "-fno-var-tracking-assignments" option, the build would fail (even with 4.8.3 that didn't show the actual stack frame bug) with a gcc compare failure.
