8a88951 Oleg Nesterov 04 January 2012, 16:29:20 UTC ptrace: ensure JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK is not zero after detach This is the temporary simple fix for 3.2, we need more changes in this area. 1. do_signal_stop() assumes that the running untraced thread in the stopped thread group is not possible. This was our goal but it is not yet achieved: a stopped-but-resumed tracee can clone the running thread which can initiate another group-stop. Remove WARN_ON_ONCE(!current->ptrace). 2. A new thread always starts with ->jobctl = 0. If it is auto-attached and this group is stopped, __ptrace_unlink() sets JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING but JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK part is zero, this triggers WANR_ON(!signr) in do_jobctl_trap() if another debugger attaches. Change __ptrace_unlink() to set the artificial SIGSTOP for report. Alternatively we could change ptrace_init_task() to copy signr from current, but this means we can copy it for no reason and hide the possible similar problems.

50b8d25 Oleg Nesterov 04 January 2012, 16:29:02 UTC ptrace: partially fix the do_wait(WEXITED) vs EXIT_DEAD->EXIT_ZOMBIE race Test-case: int main(void) { int pid, status; pid = fork(); if (!pid) { for (;;) { if (!fork()) return 0; if (waitpid(-1, &status, 0) < 0) { printf("ERR!! wait: %m\n"); return 0; } } } assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0,0) == 0); assert(waitpid(-1, NULL, 0) == pid); assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0, PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK) == 0); do { ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, 0); pid = waitpid(-1, NULL, 0); } while (pid > 0); return 1; } It fails because ->real_parent sees its child in EXIT_DEAD state while the tracer is going to change the state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE in wait_task_zombie(). The offending commit is 823b018e which moved the EXIT_DEAD check, but in fact we should not blame it. The original code was not correct as well because it didn't take ptrace_reparented() into account and because we can't really trust ->ptrace. This patch adds the additional check to close this particular race but it doesn't solve the whole problem. We simply can't rely on ->ptrace in this case, it can be cleared if the tracer is multithreaded by the exiting ->parent. I think we should kill EXIT_DEAD altogether, we should always remove the soon-to-be-reaped child from ->children or at least we should never do the DEAD->ZOMBIE transition. But this is too complex for 3.2.

f423fc6 Linus Torvalds 04 January 2012, 15:57:22 UTC Revert "rtc: Expire alarms after the time is set." This reverts commit 93b2ec0128c431148b216b8f7337c1a52131ef03. The call to "schedule_work()" in rtc_initialize_alarm() happens too early, and can cause oopses at bootup Neil Brown explains why we do it: "If you set an alarm in the future, then shutdown and boot again after that time, then you will end up with a timer_queue node which is in the past. When this happens the queue gets stuck. That entry-in-the-past won't get removed until and interrupt happens and an interrupt won't happen because the RTC only triggers an interrupt when the alarm is "now". So you'll find that e.g. "hwclock" will always tell you that 'select' timed out. So we force the interrupt work to happen at the start just in case." and has a patch that convert it to do things in-process rather than with the worker thread, but right now it's too late to play around with this, so we just revert the patch that caused problems for now.

225de11 Steve French 04 January 2012, 05:08:24 UTC [CIFS] default ntlmv2 for cifs mount delayed to 3.3 Turned out the ntlmv2 (default security authentication) upgrade was harder to test than expected, and we ran out of time to test against Apple and a few other servers that we wanted to. Delay upgrade of default security from ntlm to ntlmv2 (on mount) to 3.3. Still works fine to specify it explicitly via "sec=ntlmv2" so this should be fine.

497728e Jeff Layton 01 January 2012, 15:34:39 UTC cifs: fix bad buffer length check in coalesce_t2 The current check looks to see if the RFC1002 length is larger than CIFSMaxBufSize, and fails if it is. The buffer is actually larger than that by MAX_CIFS_HDR_SIZE. This bug has been around for a long time, but the fact that we used to cap the clients MaxBufferSize at the same level as the server tended to paper over it. Commit c974befa changed that however and caused this bug to bite in more cases.

157e8bf Linus Torvalds 04 January 2012, 01:32:13 UTC Revert "rtc: Disable the alarm in the hardware" This reverts commit c0afabd3d553c521e003779c127143ffde55a16f. It causes failures on Toshiba laptops - instead of disabling the alarm, it actually seems to enable it on the affected laptops, resulting in (for example) the laptop powering on automatically five minutes after shutdown. There's a patch for it that appears to work for at least some people, but it's too late to play around with this, so revert for now and try again in the next merge window.

30e0532 Jan Kara 03 January 2012, 12:14:29 UTC security: Fix security_old_inode_init_security() when CONFIG_SECURITY is not set Commit 1e39f384bb01 ("evm: fix build problems") makes the stub version of security_old_inode_init_security() return 0 when CONFIG_SECURITY is not set. But that makes callers such as reiserfs_security_init() assume that security_old_inode_init_security() has set name, value, and len arguments properly - but security_old_inode_init_security() left them uninitialized which then results in interesting failures. Revert security_old_inode_init_security() to the old behavior of returning EOPNOTSUPP since both callers (reiserfs and ocfs2) handle this just fine. [ Also fixed the S_PRIVATE(inode) case of the actual non-stub security_old_inode_init_security() function to return EOPNOTSUPP for the same reason, as pointed out by Mimi Zohar. It got incorrectly changed to match the new function in commit fb88c2b6cbb1: "evm: fix security/security_old_init_security return code". - Linus ] Reported-by: Jorge Bastos <mysql.jorge@decimal.pt> Acked-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org> Acked-by: Mimi Zohar <zohar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 04 January 2012, 00:12:19 UTC

e6780f7 Hugh Dickins 31 December 2011, 19:44:01 UTC futex: Fix uninterruptible loop due to gate_area It was found (by Sasha) that if you use a futex located in the gate area we get stuck in an uninterruptible infinite loop, much like the ZERO_PAGE issue. While looking at this problem, PeterZ realized you'll get into similar trouble when hitting any install_special_pages() mapping. And are there still drivers setting up their own special mmaps without page->mapping, and without special VM or pte flags to make get_user_pages fail? In most cases, if page->mapping is NULL, we do not need to retry at all: Linus points out that even /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches poses no problem, because it ends up using remove_mapping(), which takes care not to interfere when the page reference count is raised. But there is still one case which does need a retry: if memory pressure called shmem_writepage in between get_user_pages_fast dropping page table lock and our acquiring page lock, then the page gets switched from filecache to swapcache (and ->mapping set to NULL) whatever the refcount. Fault it back in to get the page->mapping needed for key->shared.inode.

This causes get_idle_time() to return numbers in the wrong units, making the idle time fields in /proc/stat wrong. Instead of converting the usec value returned by get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us to units of jiffies, use the new function usecs_to_cputime64 to convert it to the correct unit of cputime64_t.

Why? Think following case. 1. map 4 pages of a file at offset 0 [0123] 2. map 2 pages just after the first mapping of the same file but with page offset 2 [0123][23] 3. mbind() 2 pages from the first mapping at offset 2. mbind_range() should treat new vma is, [0123][23] |23| mbind vma but it does [0123][23] |01| mbind vma Oops. then, it makes wrong vma merge and splitting ([01][0123] or similar).

However, it changed behavior in the tag < max_depth case to not end the request. Leading to triggering of BUG_ON(blk_queued_rq(rq)) in the request completion path: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=132204370518629&w=2 In order to allow blk_queue_resize_tags() to shrink the tag space blk_queue_end_tag() must always complete tags with a value less than real_max_depth regardless of the current max_depth. The comment about "handling the shrink case" seems to be what prompted changes in this space, so remove it and BUG on all invalid tags (made even simpler by Matthew's suggestion to use an unsigned compare).

0d09858 Wim Van Sebroeck 26 December 2011, 14:23:51 UTC watchdog: iTCO_wdt.c - problems with newer hardware due to SMI clearing (part 2) Redhat Bugzilla: Bug 727875 - TCO_EN bit is disabled by TCO driver The previous patch breaks reset watchdog behaviour on the older hardware. It is therefor better to make sure that the behaviour for older hardware (<=ICH5 or 6300ESB) is preserved and that the behaviour for newer hardware is changed. We therefor use the iTCO_version to see if we need the clearing of the SMI_TCO_EN bit in the SMI_EN register. So the new behaviour becomes: turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off=0 -> Do not turn off SMI clearing watchdog. turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off=1 -> Turn off SMI clearing watchdog when iTCO_version=1 (ICHO till ICH5 + 6300ESB only) turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off=2 -> Turn off SMI clearing watchdog.

6d4b9e3 Linus Torvalds 26 December 2011, 18:25:26 UTC vfs: fix handling of lock allocation failure in lease-break case Bruce Fields notes that commit 778fc546f749 ("locks: fix tracking of inprogress lease breaks") introduced a possible error pointer dereference on failure to allocate memory. locks_conflict() will dereference the passed-in new lease lock structure that may be an error pointer. This means an open (without O_NONBLOCK set) on a file with a lease applied (generally only done when Samba or nfsd (with v4) is running) could crash if a kmalloc() fails. So instead of playing games with IS_ERROR() all over the place, just check the allocation failure early. That makes the code more straightforward, and avoids this possible bad pointer dereference.

4d25a06 Jan Kiszka 21 December 2011, 11:28:29 UTC KVM: Don't automatically expose the TSC deadline timer in cpuid Unlike all of the other cpuid bits, the TSC deadline timer bit is set unconditionally, regardless of what userspace wants. This is broken in several ways: - if userspace doesn't use KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, and doesn't emulate the TSC deadline timer feature, a guest that uses the feature will break - live migration to older host kernels that don't support the TSC deadline timer will cause the feature to be pulled from under the guest's feet; breaking it - guests that are broken wrt the feature will fail. Fix by not enabling the feature automatically; instead report it to userspace. Because the feature depends on KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, which we cannot guarantee will be called, we expose it via a KVM_CAP_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER and not KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID. Fixes the Illumos guest kernel, which uses the TSC deadline timer feature.

Devices without BAR resources are typically chipset components that also don't have host drivers. We don't want users to hold such devices captive or cause system problems by fencing them off into an iommu domain. We determine "permission to use" by testing whether the user has access to the PCI sysfs resource files. By default a normal user will not have access to these files, so it provides a good indication that an administration agent has granted the user access to the device.

be4f1ac Christoph Hellwig 20 December 2011, 20:08:41 UTC xfs: log all dirty inodes in xfs_fs_sync_fs Since Linux 2.6.36 the writeback code has introduces various measures for live lock prevention during sync(). Unfortunately some of these are actively harmful for the XFS model, where the inode gets marked dirty for metadata from the data I/O handler. The older_than_this checks that are now more strictly enforced since writeback: avoid livelocking WB_SYNC_ALL writeback by only calling into __writeback_inodes_sb and thus only sampling the current cut off time once. But on a slow enough devices the previous asynchronous sync pass might not have fully completed yet, and thus XFS might mark metadata dirty only after that sampling of the cut off time for the blocking pass already happened. I have not myself reproduced this myself on a real system, but by introducing artificial delay into the XFS I/O completion workqueues it can be reproduced easily. Fix this by iterating over all XFS inodes in ->sync_fs and log all that are dirty. This might log inode that only got redirtied after the previous pass, but given how cheap delayed logging of inodes is it isn't a major concern for performance.

0b8fd30 Christoph Hellwig 18 December 2011, 15:49:55 UTC xfs: log the inode in ->write_inode calls for kupdate If the writeback code writes back an inode because it has expired we currently use the non-blockin ->write_inode path. This means any inode that is pinned is skipped. With delayed logging and a workload that has very little log traffic otherwise it is very likely that an inode that gets constantly written to is always pinned, and thus we keep refusing to write it. The VM writeback code at that point redirties it and doesn't try to write it again for another 30 seconds. This means under certain scenarious time based metadata writeback never happens. Fix this by calling into xfs_log_inode for kupdate in addition to data integrity syncs, and thus transfer the inode to the log ASAP.
