aa84193 autofs: fix dev ioctl number range check The count of miscellaneous device ioctls in fs/autofs4/autofs_i.h is wrong. The number of ioctls is the difference between AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_VERSION_CMD and AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_ISMOUNTPOINT_CMD (14) not the difference between AUTOFS_IOC_COUNT and 11 (21).

bf72eda autofs: update struct autofs_dev_ioctl in Documentation Sync with changes made by commit 730c9eeca980 ("autofs4: improve parameter usage") which introduced an union for various ioctl commands instead of having statically named arg1,2. This commit simply replaces arg1,2 with the corresponding fields without changing semantics.

2d13e6c lib/bitmap.c: enhance bitmap syntax Today there are platforms with many CPUs (up to 4K). Trying to boot only part of the CPUs may result in too long string. For example lets take NPS platform that is part of arch/arc. This platform have SMP system with 256 cores each with 16 HW threads (SMT machine) where HW thread appears as CPU to the kernel. In this example there is total of 4K CPUs. When one tries to boot only part of the HW threads from each core the string representing the map may be long... For example if for sake of performance we decided to boot only first half of HW threads of each core the map will look like: 0-7,16-23,32-39,...,4080-4087 This patch introduce new syntax to accommodate with such use case. I added an optional postfix to a range of CPUs which will choose according to given modulo the desired range of reminders i.e.: <cpus range>:sed_size/group_size For example, above map can be described in new syntax like this: 0-4095:8/16 Note that this patch is backward compatible with current syntax.

bf90e56 lib: harden strncpy_from_user The strncpy_from_user() accessor is effectively a copy_from_user() specialised to copy strings, terminating early at a NUL byte if possible. In other respects it is identical, and can be used to copy an arbitrarily large buffer from userspace into the kernel. Conceptually, it exposes a similar attack surface. As with copy_from_user(), we check the destination range when the kernel is built with KASAN, but unlike copy_from_user() we do not check the destination buffer when using HARDENED_USERCOPY. As strncpy_from_user() calls get_user() in a loop, we must call check_object_size() explicitly. This patch adds this instrumentation to strncpy_from_user(), per the same rationale as with the regular copy_from_user(). In the absence of hardened usercopy this will have no impact as the instrumentation expands to an empty static inline function.

eec4852 radix-tree tests: add iteration test There are four cases I can see where we could end up with a NULL 'slot' in radix_tree_next_slot(). This unit test exercises all four of them, making sure that if in the future we have an unsafe path through radix_tree_next_slot(), we'll catch it. Here are details on the four cases: 1) radix_tree_iter_retry() via a non-tagged iteration like radix_tree_for_each_slot(). In this case we currently aren't seeing a bug because radix_tree_iter_retry() sets iter->next_index = iter->index; which means that in in the else case in radix_tree_next_slot(), 'count' is zero, so we skip over the while() loop and effectively just return NULL without ever dereferencing 'slot'. 2) radix_tree_iter_retry() via tagged iteration like radix_tree_for_each_tagged(). This case was giving us NULL pointer dereferences in testing, and was fixed with this commit: commit 3cb9185c6730 ("radix-tree: fix radix_tree_iter_retry() for tagged iterators.") This fix doesn't explicitly check for 'slot' being NULL, though, it works around the NULL pointer dereference by instead zeroing iter->tags in radix_tree_iter_retry(), which makes us bail out of the if() case in radix_tree_next_slot() before we dereference 'slot'. 3) radix_tree_iter_next() via via a non-tagged iteration like radix_tree_for_each_slot(). This currently happens in shmem_tag_pins() and shmem_partial_swap_usage(). As with non-tagged iteration, 'count' in the else case of radix_tree_next_slot() is zero, so we skip over the while() loop and effectively just return NULL without ever dereferencing 'slot'. 4) radix_tree_iter_next() via tagged iteration like radix_tree_for_each_tagged(). This happens in shmem_wait_for_pins(). radix_tree_iter_next() zeros out iter->tags, so we end up exiting radix_tree_next_slot() here: if (flags & RADIX_TREE_ITER_TAGGED) { void *canon = slot; iter->tags >>= 1; if (unlikely(!iter->tags)) return NULL; Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160815194237.25967-3-ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Ross Zwisler <ross.zwisler@linux.intel.com> Cc: Konstantin Khlebnikov <koct9i@gmail.com> Cc: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuahkh@osg.samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 11 October 2016, 22:06:30 UTC
915045f radix-tree: 'slot' can be NULL in radix_tree_next_slot() There are four cases I can see where we could end up with a NULL 'slot' in radix_tree_next_slot(). Yet radix_tree_next_slot() never actually checks whether 'slot' is NULL. It just happens that for the cases where 'slot' is NULL, some other combination of factors prevents us from dereferencing it. It would be very easy for someone to unwittingly change one of these factors without realizing that we are implicitly depending on it to save us from a NULL pointer dereference. Add a comment documenting the things that allow 'slot' to be safely passed as NULL to radix_tree_next_slot(). Here are details on the four cases: 1) radix_tree_iter_retry() via a non-tagged iteration like radix_tree_for_each_slot().

2d19309 fs/select: add vmalloc fallback for select(2) The select(2) syscall performs a kmalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL) where size grows with the number of fds passed. We had a customer report page allocation failures of order-4 for this allocation. This is a costly order, so it might easily fail, as the VM expects such allocation to have a lower-order fallback. Such trivial fallback is vmalloc(), as the memory doesn't have to be physically contiguous and the allocation is temporary for the duration of the syscall only. There were some concerns, whether this would have negative impact on the system by exposing vmalloc() to userspace. Although an excessive use of vmalloc can cause some system wide performance issues - TLB flushes etc. - a large order allocation is not for free either and an excessive reclaim/compaction can have a similar effect. Also note that the size is effectively limited by RLIMIT_NOFILE which defaults to 1024 on the systems I checked. That means the bitmaps will fit well within single page and thus the vmalloc() fallback could be only excercised for processes where root allows a higher limit. Note that the poll(2) syscall seems to use a linked list of order-0 pages, so it doesn't need this kind of fallback.

25f4c41 block: implement (some of) fallocate for block devices After much discussion, it seems that the fallocate feature flag FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE maps nicely to SCSI WRITE SAME; and the feature FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE maps nicely to the devices that have been whitelisted for zeroing SCSI UNMAP. Punch still requires that FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE is set. A length that goes past the end of the device will be clamped to the device size if KEEP_SIZE is set; or will return -EINVAL if not. Both start and length must be aligned to the device's logical block size. Since the semantics of fallocate are fairly well established already, wire up the two pieces. The other fallocate variants (collapse range, insert range, and allocate blocks) are not supported.

22dd6d3 block: invalidate the page cache when issuing BLKZEROOUT Patch series "fallocate for block devices", v11. This is a patchset to fix page cache coherency with BLKZEROOUT and implement fallocate for block devices. The first patch is a fix to the existing BLKZEROOUT ioctl to invalidate the page cache if the zeroing command to the underlying device succeeds. Without this patch we still have the pagecache coherence bug that's been in the kernel forever. The second patch changes the internal block device functions to reject attempts to discard or zeroout that are not aligned to the logical block size. Previously, we only checked that the start/len parameters were 512-byte aligned, which caused kernel BUG_ONs for unaligned IOs to 4k-LBA devices. The third patch creates an fallocate handler for block devices, wires up the FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE flag to zeroing-discard, and connects FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE to write-same so that we can have a consistent fallocate interface between files and block devices. It also allows the combination of PUNCH_HOLE and NO_HIDE_STALE to invoke non-zeroing discard. Test cases for the new block device fallocate are now in xfstests as generic/349-351. This patch (of 3): Invalidate the page cache (as a regular O_DIRECT write would do) to avoid returning stale cache contents at a later time.

5638733 Merge branch 'printk-cleanups' Merge my system logging cleanups, triggered by the broken '\n' patches. The line continuation handling has been broken basically forever, and the code to handle the system log records was both confusing and dubious. And it would do entirely the wrong thing unless you always had a terminating newline, partly because it couldn't actually see whether a message was marked KERN_CONT or not (but partly because the LOG_CONT handling in the recording code was rather confusing too). This re-introduces a real semantically meaningful KERN_CONT, and fixes the few places I noticed where it was missing. There are probably more missing cases, since KERN_CONT hasn't actually had any semantic meaning for at least four years (other than the checkpatch meaning of "no log level necessary, this is a continuation line"). This also allows the combination of KERN_CONT and a log level. In that case the log level will be ignored if the merging with a previous line is successful, but if a new record is needed, that new record will now get the right log level. That also means that you can at least in theory combine KERN_CONT with the "pr_info()" style helpers, although any use of pr_fmt() prefixing would make that just result in a mess, of course (the prefix would end up in the middle of a continuing line). * printk-cleanups: printk: make reading the kernel log flush pending lines printk: re-organize log_output() to be more legible printk: split out core logging code into helper function printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines 10 October 2016, 16:29:50 UTC

bfd8d3f printk: make reading the kernel log flush pending lines That will mean that any possible subsequent continuation will now be broken up onto a line of its own (since reading the log has finalized the beginning og the line), but if user space has activated system logging (or if there's a kernel message dump going on) that is the right thing to do. And now that we actually get the continuation flags _right_ for this all, the user space logger that is reading the kernel messages can actually see the continuation marker. Not that anybody seems to really bother with it (or care), but in theory user space can do its own message stitching.

c362c7f printk: split out core logging code into helper function The code that actually decides how to log the message (whether to put it directly into the record log, whether to append it to an existing buffered log, or whether to start a new buffered log) is fairly non-obvious code in the middle of the vprintk_emit() function. Splitting that code up into a helper function makes it easier to understand, but perhaps more importantly also allows for the code to just return early out of the helper function once it has made the decision about where the new log content goes.

4bcc595 printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines Long long ago the kernel log buffer was a buffered stream of bytes, very much like stdio in user space. It supported log levels by scanning the stream and noticing the log level markers at the beginning of each line, but if you wanted to print a partial line in multiple chunks, you just did multiple printk() calls, and it just automatically worked. Except when it didn't, and you had very confusing output when different lines got all mixed up with each other. Then you got fragment lines mixing with each other, or with non-fragment lines, because it was traditionally impossible to tell whether a printk() call was a continuation or not. To at least help clarify the issue of continuation lines, we added a KERN_CONT marker back in 2007 to mark continuation lines: 474925277671 ("printk: add KERN_CONT annotation"). That continuation marker was initially an empty string, and didn't actuall make any semantic difference. But it at least made it possible to annotate the source code, and have check-patch notice that a printk() didn't need or want a log level marker, because it was a continuation of a previous line. To avoid the ambiguity between a continuation line that had that KERN_CONT marker, and a printk with no level information at all, we then in 2009 made KERN_CONT be a real log level marker which meant that we could now reliably tell the difference between the two cases. 5fd29d6ccbc9 ("printk: clean up handling of log-levels and newlines") and we could take advantage of that to make sure we didn't mix up continuation lines with lines that just didn't have any loglevel at all. Then, in 2012, the kernel log buffer was changed to be a "record" based log, where each line was a record that has a loglevel and a timestamp. You can see the beginning of that conversion in commits e11fea92e13f ("kmsg: export printk records to the /dev/kmsg interface") 7ff9554bb578 ("printk: convert byte-buffer to variable-length record buffer") with a number of follow-up commits to fix some painful fallout from that conversion. Over all, it took a couple of months to sort out most of it. But the upside was that you could have concurrent readers (and writers) of the kernel log and not have lines with mixed output in them. And one particular pain-point for the record-based kernel logging was exactly the fragmentary lines that are generated in smaller chunks. In order to still log them as one recrod, the continuation lines need to be attached to the previous record properly. However the explicit continuation record marker that is actually useful for this exact case was actually removed in aroundm the same time by commit 61e99ab8e35a ("printk: remove the now unnecessary "C" annotation for KERN_CONT") due to the incorrect belief that KERN_CONT wasn't meaningful. The ambiguity between "is this a continuation line" or "is this a plain printk with no log level information" was reintroduced, and in fact became an even bigger pain point because there was now the whole record-level merging of kernel messages going on. This patch reinstates the KERN_CONT as a real non-empty string marker, so that the ambiguity is fixed once again. But it's not a plain revert of that original removal: in the four years since we made KERN_CONT an empty string again, not only has the format of the log level markers changed, we've also had some usage changes in this area. For example, some ACPI code seems to use KERN_CONT _together_ with a log level, and now uses both the KERN_CONT marker and (for example) a KERN_INFO marker to show that it's an informational continuation of a line. Which is actually not a bad idea - if the continuation line cannot be attached to its predecessor, without the log level information we don't know what log level to assign to it (and we traditionally just assigned it the default loglevel). So having both a log level and the KERN_CONT marker is not necessarily a bad idea, but it does mean that we need to actually iterate over potentially multiple markers, rather than just a single one. Also, since KERN_CONT was still conceptually needed, and encouraged, but didn't actually _do_ anything, we've also had the reverse problem: rather than having too many annotations it has too few, and there is bit rot with code that no longer marks the continuation lines with the KERN_CONT marker. So this patch not only re-instates the non-empty KERN_CONT marker, it also fixes up the cases of bit-rot I noticed in my own logs. There are probably other cases where KERN_CONT will be needed to be added, either because it is new code that never dealt with the need for KERN_CONT, or old code that has bitrotted without anybody noticing. That said, we should strive to avoid the need for KERN_CONT. It does result in real problems for logging, and should generally not be seen as a good feature. If we some day can get rid of the feature entirely, because nobody does any fragmented printk calls, that would be lovely. But until that point, let's at mark the code that relies on the hacky multi-fragment kernel printk's. Not only does it avoid the ambiguity, it also annotates code as "maybe this would be good to fix some day". (That said, particularly during single-threaded bootup, the downsides of KERN_CONT are very limited. Things get much hairier when you have multiple threads going on and user level reading and writing logs too).

d4b0592 x86/pkeys: Make protection keys an "eager" feature Our XSAVE features are divided into two categories: those that generate FPU exceptions, and those that do not. MPX and pkeys do not generate FPU exceptions and thus can not be used lazily. We disable them when lazy mode is forced on. We have a pair of masks to collect these two sets of features, but XFEATURE_MASK_PKRU was added to the wrong mask: XFEATURE_MASK_LAZY. Fix it by moving the feature to XFEATURE_MASK_EAGER. Note: this only causes problem if you boot with lazy FPU mode (eagerfpu=off) which is *not* the default. It also only affects hardware which is not currently publicly available. It looks like eager mode is going away, but we still need this patch applied to any kernel that has protection keys and lazy mode, which is 4.6 through 4.8 at this point, and 4.9 if the lazy removal isn't sent to Linus for 4.9.

df610d6 x86/apic: Prevent pointless warning messages Markus reported that he sees new warnings: APIC: NR_CPUS/possible_cpus limit of 4 reached. Processor 4/0x84 ignored. APIC: NR_CPUS/possible_cpus limit of 4 reached. Processor 5/0x85 ignored. This comes from the recent persistant cpuid - nodeid changes. The code which emits the warning has been called prior to these changes only for enabled processors. Now it's called for disabled processors as well to get the possible cpu accounting correct. So if the kernel is compiled for the number of actual available/enabled CPUs and the BIOS reports disabled CPUs as well then the above warnings are printed. That's a pointless exercise as it only makes sense if there are more CPUs enabled than the kernel supports. Nake the warning conditional on enabled processors so we are back to the state before these changes.

f3bf1db x86/acpi: Prevent LAPIC id 0xff from being accounted Yinghai reported that the recent changes to make the cpuid - nodeid relationship permanent causes a cpuid ordering regression on a system which has 2apic enabled.. The reason is that the ACPI local APIC parser has no sanity check for apicid 0xff, which is an invalid id. So a CPU id for this invalid local APIC id is allocated and therefor breaks the cpuid ordering. Add a sanity check to acpi_parse_lapic() which ignores the invalid id.
