8110e16 vfs: dcache: fix deadlock in tree traversal IBM reported a deadlock in select_parent(). This was found to be caused by taking rename_lock when already locked when restarting the tree traversal. There are two cases when the traversal needs to be restarted: 1) concurrent d_move(); this can only happen when not already locked, since taking rename_lock protects against concurrent d_move(). 2) racing with final d_put() on child just at the moment of ascending to parent; rename_lock doesn't protect against this rare race, so it can happen when already locked. Because of case 2, we need to be able to handle restarting the traversal when rename_lock is already held. This patch fixes all three callers of try_to_ascend(). IBM reported that the deadlock is gone with this patch. [ I rewrote the patch to be smaller and just do the "goto again" if the lock was already held, but credit goes to Miklos for the real work. - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@suse.cz> Cc: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 30 September 2012, 00:41:40 UTC

9c603e5 mtdchar: fix offset overflow detection Sasha Levin has been running trinity in a KVM tools guest, and was able to trigger the BUG_ON() at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:279 (verifying the range of the memory type). The call trace showed that it was mtdchar_mmap() that created an invalid remap_pfn_range(). The problem is that mtdchar_mmap() does various really odd and subtle things with the vma page offset etc, and uses the wrong types (and the wrong overflow) detection for it. For example, the page offset may well be 32-bit on a 32-bit architecture, but after shifting it up by PAGE_SHIFT, we need to use a potentially 64-bit resource_size_t to correctly hold the full value. Also, we need to check that the vma length plus offset doesn't overflow before we check that it is smaller than the length of the mtdmap region. This fixes things up and tries to make the code a bit easier to read.

0774e39 iommu/amd: Fix wrong assumption in iommu-group specific code The new IOMMU groups code in the AMD IOMMU driver makes the assumption that there is a pci_dev struct available for all device-ids listed in the IVRS ACPI table. Unfortunatly this assumption is not true and so this code causes a NULL pointer dereference at boot on some systems. Fix it by making sure the given pointer is never NULL when passed to the group specific code. The real fix is larger and will be queued for v3.7.

68b3f28 qlcnic: Fix scheduling while atomic bug In the device close path, 'qlcnic_fw_destroy_ctx' and 'qlcnic_poll_rsp' call msleep. But 'qlcnic_fw_destroy_ctx' and 'qlcnic_poll_rsp' are called with 'adapter->tx_clean_lock' spin lock held resulting in scheduling while atomic bug causing the following trace. I observed that the commit 012dc19a45b2b9cc2ebd14aaa401cf782c2abba4 from John Fastabend addresses a similar issue in ixgbevf driver.

9429ec9 um: Preinclude include/linux/kern_levels.h The userspace part of UML uses the asm-offsets.h generator mechanism to create definitions for UM_KERN_<LEVEL> that match the in-kernel KERN_<LEVEL> constant definitions. As of commit 04d2c8c83d0e3ac5f78aeede51babb3236200112 ("printk: convert the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern"), KERN_<LEVEL> is no longer expanded to the literal '"<LEVEL>"', but to '"\001" "LEVEL"', i.e. it contains two parts. However, the combo of DEFINE_STR() in arch/x86/um/shared/sysdep/kernel-offsets.h and sed-y in Kbuild doesn't support string literals consisting of multiple parts. Hence for all UM_KERN_<LEVEL> definitions, only the SOH character is retained in the actual definition, while the remainder ends up in the comment. E.g. in include/generated/asm-offsets.h we get #define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" /* "6" KERN_INFO */ instead of #define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" "6" /* KERN_INFO */ This causes spurious '^A' output in some kernel messages: Calibrating delay loop... 4640.76 BogoMIPS (lpj=23203840) pid_max: default: 32768 minimum: 301 Mount-cache hash table entries: 256 ^AChecking that host ptys support output SIGIO...Yes ^AChecking that host ptys support SIGIO on close...No, enabling workaround ^AUsing 2.6 host AIO NET: Registered protocol family 16 bio: create slab <bio-0> at 0 Switching to clocksource itimer To fix this: - Move the mapping from UM_KERN_<LEVEL> to KERN_<LEVEL> from arch/um/include/shared/common-offsets.h to arch/um/include/shared/user.h, which is preincluded for all userspace parts, - Preinclude include/linux/kern_levels.h for all userspace parts, to obtain the in-kernel KERN_<LEVEL> constant definitions. This doesn't violate the kernel/userspace separation, as include/linux/kern_levels.h is self-contained and doesn't expose any other kernel internals. - Remove the now unused STR() and DEFINE_STR() macros.

0d00dc2 USB: Fix race condition when removing host controllers This patch (as1607) fixes a race that can occur if a USB host controller is removed while a process is reading the /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices file. The usb_device_read() routine uses the bus->root_hub pointer to determine whether or not the root hub is registered. The is not a valid test, because the pointer is set before the root hub gets registered and remains set even after the root hub is unregistered and deallocated. As a result, usb_device_read() or usb_device_dump() can access freed memory, causing an oops. The patch changes the test to use the hcd->rh_registered flag, which does get set and cleared at the appropriate times. It also makes sure to hold the usb_bus_list_lock mutex while setting the flag, so that usb_device_read() will become aware of new root hubs as soon as they are registered.

80b4812 md/raid10: fix "enough" function for detecting if array is failed. The 'enough' function is written to work with 'near' arrays only in that is implicitly assumes that the offset from one 'group' of devices to the next is the same as the number of copies. In reality it is the number of 'near' copies. So change it to make this number explicit. This bug makes it possible to run arrays without enough drives present, which is dangerous. It is appropriate for an -stable kernel, but will almost certainly need to be modified for some of them.

0424caa dm thin: fix discard support for data devices The discard limits that get established for a thin-pool or thin device may be incompatible with the pool's data device. Avoid this by checking the discard limits of the pool's data device. If an incompatibility is found then the pool's 'discard passdown' feature is disabled. Change thin_io_hints to ensure that a thin device always uses the same queue limits as its pool device. Introduce requested_pf to track whether or not the table line originally contained the no_discard_passdown flag and use this directly for table output. We prepare the correct setting for discard_passdown directly in bind_control_target (called from pool_io_hints) and store it in adjusted_pf rather than waiting until we have access to pool->pf in pool_preresume.

3ae7065 dm: retain table limits when swapping to new table with no devices Add a safety net that will re-use the DM device's existing limits in the event that DM device has a temporary table that doesn't have any component devices. This is to reduce the chance that requests not respecting the hardware limits will reach the device. DM recalculates queue limits based only on devices which currently exist in the table. This creates a problem in the event all devices are temporarily removed such as all paths being lost in multipath. DM will reset the limits to the maximum permissible, which can then assemble requests which exceed the limits of the paths when the paths are restored. The request will fail the blk_rq_check_limits() test when sent to a path with lower limits, and will be retried without end by multipath. This became a much bigger issue after v3.6 commit fe86cdcef ("block: do not artificially constrain max_sectors for stacking drivers").

c3c4555 dm table: clear add_random unless all devices have it set Always clear QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM if any underlying device does not have it set. Otherwise devices with predictable characteristics may contribute entropy. QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM specifies whether or not queue IO timings contribute to the random pool. For bio-based targets this flag is always 0 because such devices have no real queue. For request-based devices this flag was always set to 1 by default. Now set it according to the flags on underlying devices. If there is at least one device which should not contribute, set the flag to zero: If a device, such as fast SSD storage, is not suitable for supplying entropy, a request-based queue stacked over it will not be either. Because the checking logic is exactly same as for the rotational flag, share the iteration function with device_is_nonrot().

ba1cbad dm: handle requests beyond end of device instead of using BUG_ON The access beyond the end of device BUG_ON that was introduced to dm_request_fn via commit 29e4013de7ad950280e4b2208 ("dm: implement REQ_FLUSH/FUA support for request-based dm") was an overly drastic (but simple) response to this situation. I have received a report that this BUG_ON was hit and now think it would be better to use dm_kill_unmapped_request() to fail the clone and original request with -EIO. map_request() will assign the valid target returned by dm_table_find_target to tio->ti. But when the target isn't valid tio->ti is never assigned (because map_request isn't called); so add a check for tio->ti != NULL to dm_done().

7ba10aa dm mpath: only retry ioctl when no paths if queue_if_no_path set When there are no paths and multipath receives an ioctl, it waits until a path becomes available. This behaviour is incorrect if the "queue_if_no_path" setting was not specified, as then the ioctl should be rejected immediately, which this patch now does. commit 35991652b ("dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg init") should have checked if queue_if_no_path was configured before queueing IO.

307615a dm thin: do not set discard_zeroes_data The dm thin pool target claims to support the zeroing of discarded data areas. This turns out to be incorrect when processing discards that do not exactly cover a complete number of blocks, so the target must always set discard_zeroes_data_unsupported. The thin pool target will zero blocks when they are allocated if the skip_block_zeroing feature is not specified. The block layer may send a discard that only partly covers a block. If a thin pool block is partially discarded then there is no guarantee that the discarded data will get zeroed before it is accessed again. Due to this, thin devices cannot claim discards will always zero data.

11ef4cf syscalls: add __NR_kcmp syscall to generic unistd.h Commit d97b46a64 ("syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscall" ) added a new syscall to support checkpoint restore. It is currently x86-only, but that restriction will be removed in a subsequent patch. Unfortunately, the kernel checksyscalls script had a bug which suppressed any warning to other architectures that the kcmp syscall was not implemented. A patch to checksyscalls is being tested in linux-next and other architectures are seeing warnings about kcmp being unimplemented. This patch adds __NR_kcmp to <asm-generic/unistd.h> so that kcmp is wired in for architectures using the generic syscall list.

6f0f9b6 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net Pull more networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Eric Dumazet discovered and fixed what turned out to be a family of bugs. These functions were using pskb_may_pull() which might need to reallocate the linear SKB data buffer, but the callers were not expecting this possibility. The callers have cached pointers to the packet header areas, and would need to reload them if we were to continue using pskb_may_pull(). So they could end up reading garbage. It's easier to just change these RAW4/RAW6/MIP6 routines to use skb_header_pointer() instead of pskb_may_pull(), which won't modify the linear SKB data area. 2) Dave Jone's syscall spammer caught a case where a non-TCP socket can call down into the TCP keepalive code. The case basically involves creating a raw socket with sk_protocol == IPPROTO_TCP, then calling setsockopt(sock_fd, SO_KEEPALIVE, ...) Fixed by Eric Dumazet. 3) Bluetooth devices do not get configured properly while being powered on, resulting in always using legacy pairing instead of SSP. Fix from Andrzej Kaczmarek. 4) Bluetooth cancels delayed work erroneously, put stricter checks in place. From Andrei Emeltchenko. 5) Fix deadlock between cfg80211_mutex and reg_regdb_search_mutex in cfg80211, from Luis R. Rodriguez. 6) Fix interrupt double release in iwlwifi, from Emmanuel Grumbach. 7) Missing module license in bcm87xx driver, from Peter Huewe. 8) Team driver can lose port changed events when adding devices to a team, fix from Jiri Pirko. 9) Fix endless loop when trying ot unregister PPPOE device in zombie state, from Xiaodong Xu. 10) batman-adv layer needs to set MAC address of software device earlier, otherwise we call tt_local_add with it uninitialized. 11) Fix handling of KSZ8021 PHYs, it's matched currently by KS8051 but that doesn't program the device properly.

b5bd6a0 lib/flex_proportions.c: fix corruption of denominator in flexible proportions When racing with CPU hotplug, percpu_counter_sum() can return negative values for the number of observed events. This confuses fprop_new_period(), which uses unsigned type and as a result number of events is set to big *positive* number. From that moment on, things go pear shaped and can result e.g. in division by zero as denominator is later truncated to 32-bits. This bug causes a divide-by-zero oops in bdi_dirty_limit() in Borislav's 3.6.0-rc6 based kernel. Fix the issue by using a signed type in fprop_new_period(). That makes us bail out from the function without doing anything (mistakenly) thinking there are no events to age. That makes aging somewhat inaccurate but getting accurate data would be rather hard.

deb09dd sb_edac: Avoid overflow errors at memory size calculation Sandy bridge EDAC is calculating the memory size with overflow. Basically, the size field and the integer calculation is using 32 bits. More bits are needed, when the DIMM memories have high density. The net result is that memories are improperly reported there, when high-density DIMMs are used: EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/sb_edac.c, line at 591: mc#0: channel 0, dimm 0, -16384 Mb (-4194304 pages) bank: 8, rank: 2, row: 0x10000, col: 0x800 EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/sb_edac.c, line at 591: mc#0: channel 1, dimm 0, -16384 Mb (-4194304 pages) bank: 8, rank: 2, row: 0x10000, col: 0x800 As the number of pages value is handled at the EDAC core as unsigned ints, the driver shows the 16 GB memories at sysfs interface as 16760832 MB! The fix is simple: calculate the number of pages as unsigned 64-bits integer. After the patch, the memory size (16 GB) is properly detected: EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/sb_edac.c, line at 592: mc#0: channel 0, dimm 0, 16384 Mb (4194304 pages) bank: 8, rank: 2, row: 0x10000, col: 0x800 EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/sb_edac.c, line at 592: mc#0: channel 1, dimm 0, 16384 Mb (4194304 pages) bank: 8, rank: 2, row: 0x10000, col: 0x800 Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com> 25 September 2012, 10:38:20 UTC

Linville says: ==================== Please pull this last(?) batch of fixes intended for 3.6... For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says this: "Here goes probably my last update to 3.6. It includes the two patches you were ok last week(from Andrzej Kaczmarek), those are critical ones, and two other fixes one for a system crash and the other for a missing lockdep annotation." The referenced fixes from Andrzej prevent attempts to configure devices that are powered-off. Along with the Bluetooth fixes, there are a couple of 802.11 fixes. Emmanuel Grumbach gives us an iwlwifi fix to prevent releasing an interrupt twice. Luis R. Rodriguez provides a fix for a possible circular lock dependency in the cfg80211 regulatory enforcement code. All of these have been in linux-next for a few days. I hope they are not too late to make the 3.6 release! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> 25 September 2012, 02:00:00 UTC

We end up in the situation where the initial domain gets too much information and gets confused and crashes - the fix is to restrict the domain to get the information - and we do it by just disabling NUMA on the PV guest (the hypervisor is still able to do its proper NUMA allocations of guests). It is OK to disable the PV guest from accessing NUMA data as right now we do not inject any NUMA node information to the PV guests. When we do get to that point, then this patch will have to be reverted." * Disable PV NUMA support as we do not do anything with it (yet) and it can cause bootup crashes on certain AMD machines. * tag 'stable/for-linus-3.6-rc7-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen: xen/boot: Disable NUMA for PV guests. 24 September 2012, 23:14:34 UTC

212ea99 phy/micrel: Implement support for KSZ8021 The KSZ8021 PHY was previously caught by KS8051, which is not correct. This PHY needs additional setup if it is strapped for address 0. In such case an reserved bit must be written in the 0x16, "Operation Mode Strap Override" register. According to the KS8051 datasheet, that bit means "PHY Address 0 in non-broadcast" and it indeed behaves as such on KSZ8021. The issue where the ethernet controller (Freescale FEC) did not communicate with network is fixed by writing this bit as 1. Signed-off-by: Marek Vasut <marex@denx.de> Cc: David J.

b02d617 c6x: use asm-generic/barrier.h A recent patch in the linux-next tree caused a build failure on C6X because C6X didn't define a read_barrier_depends() macro.

8d54db7 xen/boot: Disable NUMA for PV guests. The hypervisor is in charge of allocating the proper "NUMA" memory and dealing with the CPU scheduler to keep them bound to the proper NUMA node. The PV guests (and PVHVM) have no inkling of where they run and do not need to know that right now. In the future we will need to inject NUMA configuration data (if a guest spans two or more NUMA nodes) so that the kernel can make the right choices. But those patches are not yet present. In the meantime, disable the NUMA capability in the PV guest, which also fixes a bootup issue. Andre says: "we see Dom0 crashes due to the kernel detecting the NUMA topology not by ACPI, but directly from the northbridge (CONFIG_AMD_NUMA). This will detect the actual NUMA config of the physical machine, but will crash about the mismatch with Dom0's virtual memory. Variation of the theme: Dom0 sees what it's not supposed to see. This happens with the said config option enabled and on a machine where this scanning is still enabled (K8 and Fam10h, not Bulldozer class) We have this dump then: NUMA: Warning: node ids are out of bound, from=-1 to=-1 distance=10 Scanning NUMA topology in Northbridge 24 Number of physical nodes 4 Node 0 MemBase 0000000000000000 Limit 0000000040000000 Node 1 MemBase 0000000040000000 Limit 0000000138000000 Node 2 MemBase 0000000138000000 Limit 00000001f8000000 Node 3 MemBase 00000001f8000000 Limit 0000000238000000 Initmem setup node 0 0000000000000000-0000000040000000 NODE_DATA [000000003ffd9000 - 000000003fffffff] Initmem setup node 1 0000000040000000-0000000138000000 NODE_DATA [0000000137fd9000 - 0000000137ffffff] Initmem setup node 2 0000000138000000-00000001f8000000 NODE_DATA [00000001f095e000 - 00000001f0984fff] Initmem setup node 3 00000001f8000000-0000000238000000 Cannot find 159744 bytes in node 3 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [<ffffffff81d220e6>] __alloc_bootmem_node+0x43/0x96 Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 3.3.6 #1 AMD Dinar/Dinar RIP: e030:[<ffffffff81d220e6>] [<ffffffff81d220e6>] __alloc_bootmem_node+0x43/0x96 .. snip..

faa2ad0 edac_mc: edac_mc_free() cannot assume mem_ctl_info is registered in sysfs. Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in edac_unregister_sysfs() on system boot introduced in 3.6-rc1. Since commit 7a623c039 ("edac: rewrite the sysfs code to use struct device") edac_mc_alloc() no longer initializes embedded kobjects in struct mem_ctl_info. Therefore edac_mc_free() can no longer simply decrement a kobject reference count to free the allocated memory unless the memory controller driver module had also called edac_mc_add_mc(). Now edac_mc_free() will check if the newly embedded struct device has been registered with sysfs before using either the standard device release functions or freeing the data structures itself with logic pulled out of the error path of edac_mc_alloc().

Should be "row" and "tot_csrows" respectively. Which means either memory leak, or out-of-bound reads (which if does not trigger an immediate page fault error, will further lead to kfree() on random addresses). L425: The inner loop is reusing the same iterator "chn" as the outer loop, which could lead to premature end of the outer loop, and hence memory leak. L429: The array index 'i' in mci->csrows[i] is a temporary value used in previous loops, and won't change at all in the current loop. Which means either out-of-bound read and possibly kfree(random number), or the same mci->csrows[i] get freed once and again, and possibly double free for the kfree(csr) in L427. L426/L427: a kfree(csr->channels) is needed in between to avoid leaking the memory. The buggy code was introduced by commit de3910eb ("edac: change the mem allocation scheme to make Documentation/kobject.txt happy") in the 3.6-rc1 merge window.

7caf69f batman-adv: Fix symmetry check / route flapping in multi interface setups If receiving an OGM from a neighbor other than the currently selected and if it has the same TQ then we are supposed to switch if this neighbor provides a more symmetric link than the currently selected one. However this symmetry check currently is broken if the interface of the neighbor we received the OGM from and the one of the currently selected neighbor differ: We are currently trying to determine the symmetry of the link towards the selected router via the link we received the OGM from instead of just checking via the link towards the currently selected router. This leads to way more route switches than necessary and can lead to permanent route flapping in many common multi interface setups.
