39caa09 btree: catch NULL value before it does harm Storing NULL values in the btree is illegal and can lead to memory corruption and possible other fun as well. Catch it on insert, instead of waiting for the inevitable.

cbf8ae3 btree: fix tree corruption in btree_get_prev() The memory the parameter __key points to is used as an iterator in btree_get_prev(), so if we save off a bkey() pointer in retry_key and then assign that to __key, we'll end up corrupting the btree internals when we do eg longcpy(__key, bkey(geo, node, i), geo->keylen); to return the key value. What we should do instead is use longcpy() to copy the key value that retry_key points to __key. This can cause a btree to get corrupted by seemingly read-only operations such as btree_for_each_safe.

7d8a456 ipc: shm: restore MADV_REMOVE functionality on shared memory segments Commit 17cf28afea2a ("mm/fs: remove truncate_range") removed the truncate_range inode operation in favour of the fallocate file operation. When using SYSV IPC shared memory segments, calling madvise with the MADV_REMOVE advice on an area of shared memory will attempt to invoke the .fallocate function for the shm_file_operations, which is NULL and therefore returns -EOPNOTSUPP to userspace. The previous behaviour would inherit the inode_operations from the underlying tmpfs file and invoke truncate_range there. This patch restores the previous behaviour by wrapping the underlying fallocate function in shm_fallocate, as we do for fsync.

736f24d c/r: prctl: drop VMA flags test on PR_SET_MM_ stack data assignment In commit b76437579d13 ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps") the stack allocated via clone() is marked in /proc/<pid>/maps as [stack:%d] thus it might be out of the former mm->start_stack/end_stack values (and even has some custom VMA flags set). So to be able to restore mm->start_stack/end_stack drop vma flags test, but still require the underlying VMA to exist. As always note this feature is under CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE and requires CAP_SYS_RESOURCE to be granted.

300f786 c/r: prctl: add ability to get clear_tid_address Zero is written at clear_tid_address when the process exits. This functionality is used by pthread_join(). We already have sys_set_tid_address() to change this address for the current task but there is no way to obtain it from user space. Without the ability to find this address and dump it we can't restore pthread'ed apps which call pthread_join() once they have been restored. This patch introduces the PR_GET_TID_ADDRESS prctl option which allows the current process to obtain own clear_tid_address. This feature is available iif CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is set.

After removing mm->num_exe_file_vmas kernel keeps mm->exe_file until final mmput(), it never becomes NULL while task is alive. We can check for other mapped files in mm instead of checking mm->num_exe_file_vmas, and mark mm with flag MMF_EXE_FILE_CHANGED in order to forbid second changing of mm->exe_file.

ff39d0e Merge branch 'release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux Pull ACPI and Power Management changes from Len Brown. This does an evil merge to fix up what I think is a mismerge by Len to the gma500 driver, and restore it to the mainline state. In that driver, both branches had commented out the call to acpi_video_register(), and Len resolved the merge to that commented-out version. However, in mainline, further changes by Alan (commit d839ede47a56: "gma500: opregion and ACPI" to be exact) had re-enabled the ACPI video registration, so the current state of the driver seems to want it. Alan is apparently still feeling the effects of partying with the Queen, so he didn't reply to my query, but I'll do the evil merge anyway. * 'release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux: ACPI: fix acpi_bus.h build warnings when ACPI is not enabled drivers: acpi: Fix dependency for ACPI_HOTPLUG_CPU tools/power turbostat: fix IVB support tools/power turbostat: fix un-intended affinity of forked program ACPI video: use after input_unregister_device() gma500: don't register the ACPI video bus acpi_video: Intel video is not always i915 acpi_video: fix leaking PCI references ACPI: Ignore invalid _PSS entries, but use valid ones ACPI battery: only refresh the sysfs files when pertinent information changes 06 June 2012, 17:47:15 UTC

Limit the max number of WQEs per QP reported when querying the device, so that ib_create_qp() will not fail for a QP size that the device claimed to support due to additional headroom WQEs being allocated. 2. Limit qp resources accepted for ib_create_qp() to the limits reported in ib_query_device(). In kernel space, make sure that the limits returned to the caller following qp creation also lie within the reported device limits.

edc4a67 mlx4_core: Fix setting VL_cap in mlx4_SET_PORT wrapper flow Commit 096335b3f983 ("mlx4_core: Allow dynamic MTU configuration for IB ports") modifies the port VL setting. This exposes a bug in mlx4_common_set_port(), where the VL cap value passed in (inside the command mailbox) is incorrectly zeroed-out: mlx4_SET_PORT modifies the VL_cap field (byte 3 of the mailbox). Since the SET_PORT command is paravirtualized on the master as well as on the slaves, mlx4_SET_PORT_wrapper() is invoked on the master. This calls mlx4_common_set_port() where mailbox byte 3 gets overwritten by code which should only set a single bit in that byte (for the reset qkey counter flag) -- but instead overwrites the entire byte. The result is that when running in SR-IOV mode, the VL_cap will be set to zero -- fix this.

0640113 vfs: Fix /proc/<tid>/fdinfo/<fd> file handling Cyrill Gorcunov reports that I broke the fdinfo files with commit 30a08bf2d31d ("proc: move fd symlink i_mode calculations into tid_fd_revalidate()"), and he's quite right. The tid_fd_revalidate() function is not just used for the <tid>/fd symlinks, it's also used for the <tid>/fdinfo/<fd> files, and the permission model for those are different. So do the dynamic symlink permission handling just for symlinks, making the fdinfo files once more appear as the proper regular files they are. Of course, Al Viro argued (probably correctly) that we shouldn't do the symlink permission games at all, and make the symlinks always just be the normal 'lrwxrwxrwx'. That would have avoided this issue too, but since somebody noticed that the permissions had changed (which was the reason for that original commit 30a08bf2d31d in the first place), people do apparently use this feature. [ Basically, you can use the symlink permission data as a cheap "fdinfo" replacement, since you see whether the file is open for reading and/or writing by just looking at st_mode of the symlink. So the feature does make sense, even if the pain it has caused means we probably shouldn't have done it to begin with. ] Reported-and-tested-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 04 June 2012, 18:00:45 UTC

3aac6ff IB/mlx4: Fix EQ deallocation in legacy mode Commit e605b743f33d ("IB/mlx4: Increase the number of vectors (EQs) available for ULPs") didn't handle correctly the case where there aren't enough MSI-X vectors to increase the number of EQs, so only the legacy EQs are allocated. This results in an attempt to memset() to zero the EQ table which was never allocated and a kernel crash. Fix this by checking in the teardown flow if the table of EQs was ever allocated.

650a37f tools/power turbostat: fix IVB support Initial IVB support went into turbostat in Linux-3.1: 553575f1ae048aa44682b46b3c51929a0b3ad337 (tools turbostat: recognize and run properly on IVB) However, when running on IVB, turbostat would fail to report the new couters added with SNB, c7, pc2 and pc7. So in scenarios where these counters are non-zero on IVB, turbostat would report erroneous residencey results. In particular c7 time would be added to c1 time, since c1 time is calculated as "that which is left over". Also, turbostat reports MHz capabilities when passed the "-v" option, and it would incorrectly report 133MHz bclk instead of 100MHz bclk for IVB, which would inflate GHz reported with that option. This patch is a backport of a fix already included in turbostat v2. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> 04 June 2012, 03:47:49 UTC

68e3e92 Revert "mm: compaction: handle incorrect MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE type pageblocks" This reverts commit 5ceb9ce6fe9462a298bb2cd5c9f1ca6cb80a0199. That commit seems to be the cause of the mm compation list corruption issues that Dave Jones reported. The locking (or rather, absense there-of) is dubious, as is the use of the 'page' variable once it has been found to be outside the pageblock range. So revert it for now, we can re-visit this for 3.6. If we even need to: as Minchan Kim says, "The patch wasn't a bug fix and even test workload was very theoretical".

752dc18 mm: fix warning in __set_page_dirty_nobuffers New tmpfs use of !PageUptodate pages for fallocate() is triggering the WARNING: at mm/page-writeback.c:1990 when __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() is called from migrate_page_copy() for compaction. It is anomalous that migration should use __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() on an address_space that does not participate in dirty and writeback accounting; and this has also been observed to insert surprising dirty tags into a tmpfs radix_tree, despite tmpfs not using tags at all. We should probably give migrate_page_copy() a better way to preserve the tag and migrate accounting info, when mapping_cap_account_dirty(). But that needs some more work: so in the interim, avoid the warning by using a simple SetPageDirty on PageSwapBacked pages.

2f9d3df vfs: move inode stat information closer together The comment above it says "Stat data, not accessed from path walking", but in fact some of inode fields we use for the common stat data was way down at the end of the inode, causing unnecessary cache misses for the common stat operations. The inode structure is pretty big, and this can change padding depending on field width, but at least on the common 64-bit configurations this doesn't change the size. Some of our inode layout has historically been to tro to avoid unnecessary padding fields, but cache locality is at least as important for layout, if not more. Noticed by looking at kernel profiles, and noticing that the "i_blkbits" access stood out like a sore thumb. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 03 June 2012, 21:50:19 UTC

a4dff30 target/file: Use O_DSYNC by default for FILEIO backends Convert to use O_DSYNC for all cases at FILEIO backend creation time to avoid the extra syncing of pure timestamp updates with legacy O_SYNC during default operation as recommended by hch. Continue to do this independently of Write Cache Enable (WCE) bit, as WCE=0 is currently the default for all backend devices and enabled by user on per device basis via attrib/emulate_write_cache. This patch drops the now unnecessary fd_buffered_io= token usage that was originally signalling when to explictly disable O_SYNC at backend creation time for buffered I/O operation. This can end up being dangerous for a number of reasons during physical node failure, so go ahead and drop this option for now when O_DSYNC is used as the default. Also allow explict FUA WRITEs -> vfs_fsync_range() call to function in fd_execute_cmd() independently of WCE bit setting.

cc8394d dm thin: provide userspace access to pool metadata This patch implements two new messages that can be sent to the thin pool target allowing it to take a snapshot of the _metadata_. This, read-only snapshot can be accessed by userland, concurrently with the live target. Only one metadata snapshot can be held at a time. The pool's status line will give the block location for the current msnap. Since version 0.1.5 of the userland thin provisioning tools, the thin_dump program displays the msnap as follows: thin_dump -m <msnap root> <metadata dev> Available here: https://github.com/jthornber/thin-provisioning-tools Now that userland can access the metadata we can do various things that have traditionally been kernel side tasks: i) Incremental backups. By using metadata snapshots we can work out what blocks have changed over time. Combined with data snapshots we can ensure the data doesn't change while we back it up. A short proof of concept script can be found here: https://github.com/jthornber/thinp-test-suite/blob/master/incremental_backup_example.rb ii) Migration of thin devices from one pool to another. iii) Merging snapshots back into an external origin. iv) Asyncronous replication.

3599165 dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg init After the failure of a group of paths, any alternative paths that need initialising do not become available until further I/O is sent to the device. Until this has happened, ioctls return -EAGAIN. With this patch, new paths are made available in response to an ioctl too. The processing of the ioctl gets delayed until this has happened. Instead of returning an error, we submit a work item to kmultipathd (that will potentially activate the new path) and retry in ten milliseconds. Note that the patch doesn't retry an ioctl if the ioctl itself fails due to a path failure. Such retries should be handled intelligently by the code that generated the ioctl in the first place, noting that some SCSI commands should not be retried because they are not idempotent (XOR write commands). For commands that could be retried, there is a danger that if the device rejected the SCSI command, the path could be errorneously marked as failed, and the request would be retried on another path which might fail too. It can be determined if the failure happens on the device or on the SCSI controller, but there is no guarantee that all SCSI drivers set these flags correctly.

The list of reverted commits is: fde86d310886 - tty: add lockdep annotations 8f6576ad476b - tty: fix ldisc lock inversion trace d3ca8b64b97e - pty: Fix lock inversion b1d679afd766 - tty: drop the pty lock during hangup abcefe5fc357 - tty/amiserial: Add missing argument for tty_unlock() fd11b42e3598 - cris: fix missing tty arg in wait_event_interruptible_tty call d29f3ef39be4 - tty_lock: Localise the lock The revert had a trivial conflict in the 68360serial.c staging driver that got removed in the meantime.

233e562 Merge 'for-linus' branches from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/{vfs,signal} Pull vfs fix and a fix from the signal changes for frv from Al Viro. The __kernel_nlink_t for powerpc got scrogged because 64-bit powerpc actually depended on the default "unsigned long", while 32-bit powerpc had an explicit override to "unsigned short". Al didn't notice, and made both of them be the unsigned short. The frv signal fix is fallout from simplifying the do_notify_resume() code, and leaving an extra parenthesis. * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: powerpc: Fix size of st_nlink on 64bit * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal: frv: Remove bogus closing parenthesis 02 June 2012, 16:03:54 UTC

8b8c0da nls: fix (and rename) mac NLS table files and config options The config options in the Kconfig file (with _CODEPAGE_ in the name) didn't match the config option name in the Makefile (no _CODEPAGE_). And both of them were of the hard-to-read MACXYZZY variety, which made them hard to parse for normal humans: MACROMAN easily reads as "macro man", not as "Mac Roman". So rename the options to be consistent, and be NLS_MAC_xyzzy. Rename the files to be mac-xyzzy.c too, and drop the "nls" part entirely (it's already in the directory name).

bad1a75 x86, x32, ptrace: Remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL for x32 When I added x32 ptrace to 3.4 kernel, I also include PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL support for x32 GDB For ARCH_GET_FS/GS, it takes a pointer to int64. But at user level, ARCH_GET_FS/GS takes a pointer to int32. So I have to add x32 ptrace to glibc to handle it with a temporary int64 passed to kernel and copy it back to GDB as int32. Roland suggested that PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL is obsolete and x32 GDB should use fs_base and gs_base fields of user_regs_struct instead. Accordingly, remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL completely from the x32 code to avoid possible memory overrun when pointer to int32 is passed to kernel.
