449cfcc jme: lower NAPI weight Since commit 82dc3c63 ("net: introduce NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT") netif_napi_add() produces an error message if a NAPI poll weight greater than 64 is requested. jme requests a quarter of the rx ring size as the NAPI weight. jme's rx ring size is 1 << 9 = 512.

93dbc1b drivers/platform/olpc/olpc-ec.c: initialise earlier Being a low-level component, various drivers (e.g. olpc-battery) assume that it is ok to communicate with the OLPC Embedded Controller during probe. Therefore the OLPC EC driver must be initialised before other drivers try to use it. This was the case until it was recently moved out of arch/x86 and restructured around commits ac2504151f5a ("Platform: OLPC: turn EC driver into a platform_driver") and 85f90cf6ca56 ("x86: OLPC: switch over to using new EC driver on x86"). Use arch_initcall so that olpc-ec is readied earlier, matching the previous behaviour. Fixes a regression introduced in Linux-3.6 where various drivers such as olpc-battery and olpc-xo1-sci failed to load due to an inability to communicate with the EC. The user-visible effect was a lack of battery monitoring, missing ebook/lid switch input devices, etc. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd@laptop.org> Cc: Andres Salomon <dilinger@queued.net> Cc: Paul Fox <pgf@laptop.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 23 August 2013, 16:51:22 UTC

The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't specified. In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774 So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch for that.

30ca222 ARM: tegra: always enable USB VBUS regulators This fixes a regression exposed during the merge window by commit 9f310de "ARM: tegra: fix VBUS regulator GPIO polarity in DT"; namely that USB VBUS doesn't get turned on, so USB devices are not detected. This affects the internal USB port on TrimSlice (i.e. the USB->SATA bridge, to which the SSD is connected) and the external port(s) on Seaboard/ Springbank and Whistler. The Tegra DT as written in v3.11 allows two paths to enable USB VBUS: 1) Via the legacy DT binding for the USB controller; it can directly acquire a VBUS GPIO and activate it. 2) Via a regulator for VBUS, which is referenced by the new DT binding for the USB controller. Those two methods both use the same GPIO, and hence whichever of the USB controller and regulator gets probed first ends up owning the GPIO. In practice, the USB driver only supports path (1) above, since the patches to support the new USB binding are not present until v3.12:-( In practice, the regulator ends up being probed first and owning the GPIO. Since nothing enables the regulator (the USB driver code is not yet present), the regulator ends up being turned off. This originally caused no problem, because the polarity in the regulator definition was incorrect, so attempting to turn off the regulator actually turned it on, and everything worked:-( However, when testing the new USB driver code in v3.12, I noticed the incorrect polarity and fixed it in commit 9f310de "ARM: tegra: fix VBUS regulator GPIO polarity in DT". In the context of v3.11, this patch then caused the USB VBUS to actually turn off, which broke USB ports with VBUS control. I got this patch included in v3.11-rc1 since it fixed a bug in device tree (incorrect polarity specification), and hence was suitable to be included early in the rc series. I evidently did not test the patch at all, or correctly, in the context of v3.11, and hence did not notice the issue that I have explained above:-( Fix this by making the USB VBUS regulators always enabled. This way, if the regulator owns the GPIO, it will always be turned on, even if there is no USB driver code to request the regulator be turned on. Even ignoring this bug, this is a reasonable way to configure the HW anyway. If this patch is applied to v3.11, it will cause a couple pretty trivial conflicts in tegra20-{trimslice,seaboard}.dts when creating v3.12, since the context right above the added lines changed in patches destined for v3.12.

9e40127 of: fdt: fix memory initialization for expanded DT Already existing property flags are filled wrong for properties created from initial FDT. This could cause problems if this DYNAMIC device-tree functions are used later, i.e. properties are attached/detached/replaced. Simply dumping flags from the running system show, that some initial static (not allocated via kzmalloc()) nodes are marked as dynamic. I putted some debug extensions to property_proc_show(..) : .. + if (OF_IS_DYNAMIC(pp)) + pr_err("DEBUG: xxx : OF_IS_DYNAMIC\n"); + if (OF_IS_DETACHED(pp)) + pr_err("DEBUG: xxx : OF_IS_DETACHED\n"); when you operate on the nodes (e.g.: ~$ cat /proc/device-tree/*some_node*) you will see that those flags are filled wrong, basically in most cases it will dump a DYNAMIC or DETACHED status, which is in not true. (BTW. this OF_IS_DETACHED is a own define for debug purposes which which just make a test_bit(OF_DETACHED, &x->_flags) If nodes are dynamic kernel is allowed to kfree() them. But it will crash attempting to do so on the nodes from FDT -- they are not allocated via kzmalloc().

ef40b7e bridge: Use the correct bit length for bitmap functions in the VLAN code The VLAN code needs to know the length of the per-port VLAN bitmap to perform its most basic operations (retrieving VLAN informations, removing VLANs, forwarding database manipulation, etc). Unfortunately, in the current implementation we are using a macro that indicates the bitmap size in longs in places where the size in bits is expected, which in some cases can cause what appear to be random failures.

Linville says: ==================== Regarding the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says: "We revert an rfkill bugfix that unfortunately caused more bugs, shuffle some code to avoid touching the PCIe device before it's enabled and disconnect if firmware fails to do our bidding. I also have Stanislaw's fix to not crash in some channel switch scenarios." As for the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "This time, I have one fix from Dan Carpenter for users of nl80211hdr_put(), and one fix from myself fixing a regression with the libertas driver." Along with the above... Dan Carpenter fixes some incorrectly placed "address of" operators in hostap that caused copying of junk data. Jussi Kivilinna corrects zd1201 to use an allocated buffer rather than the stack for a URB operation. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

8bcdeaf packet: restore packet statistics tp_packets to include drops getsockopt PACKET_STATISTICS returns tp_packets + tp_drops. Commit ee80fbf301 ("packet: account statistics only in tpacket_stats_u") cleaned up the getsockopt PACKET_STATISTICS code. This also changed semantics. Historically, tp_packets included tp_drops on return. The commit removed the line that adds tp_drops into tp_packets. This patch reinstates the old semantics.

fc78d34 xen/smp: initialize IPI vectors before marking CPU online An older PVHVM guest (v3.0 based) crashed during vCPU hot-plug with: kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328! RCU has detected that a CPU has not entered a quiescent state within the grace period. It needs to send the CPU a reschedule IPI if it is not offline. rcu_implicit_offline_qs() does this check: /* * If the CPU is offline, it is in a quiescent state. We can * trust its state not to change because interrupts are disabled. */ if (cpu_is_offline(rdp->cpu)) { rdp->offline_fqs++; return 1; } Else the CPU is online. Send it a reschedule IPI. The CPU is in the middle of being hot-plugged and has been marked online (!cpu_is_offline()). See start_secondary(): set_cpu_online(smp_processor_id(), true); ... per_cpu(cpu_state, smp_processor_id()) = CPU_ONLINE; start_secondary() then waits for the CPU bringing up the hot-plugged CPU to mark it as active: /* * Wait until the cpu which brought this one up marked it * online before enabling interrupts. If we don't do that then * we can end up waking up the softirq thread before this cpu * reached the active state, which makes the scheduler unhappy * and schedule the softirq thread on the wrong cpu. This is * only observable with forced threaded interrupts, but in * theory it could also happen w/o them. It's just way harder * to achieve. */ while (!cpumask_test_cpu(smp_processor_id(), cpu_active_mask)) cpu_relax(); /* enable local interrupts */ local_irq_enable(); The CPU being hot-plugged will be marked active after it has been fully initialized by the CPU managing the hot-plug. In the Xen PVHVM case xen_smp_intr_init() is called to set up the hot-plugged vCPU's XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR. The hot-plugging CPU is marked online, not marked active and does not have its IPI vectors set up. rcu_implicit_offline_qs() sees the hot-plugging cpu is !cpu_is_offline() and tries to send it a reschedule IPI: This will lead to: kernel BUG at drivers/xen/events.c:1328! xen_send_IPI_one() xen_smp_send_reschedule() rcu_implicit_offline_qs() rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs() force_qs_rnp() force_quiescent_state() __rcu_process_callbacks() rcu_process_callbacks() __do_softirq() call_softirq() do_softirq() irq_exit() xen_evtchn_do_upcall() because xen_send_IPI_one() will attempt to use an uninitialized IRQ for the XEN_RESCHEDULE_VECTOR. There is at least one other place that has caused the same crash: xen_smp_send_reschedule() wake_up_idle_cpu() add_timer_on() clocksource_watchdog() call_timer_fn() run_timer_softirq() __do_softirq() call_softirq() do_softirq() irq_exit() xen_evtchn_do_upcall() xen_hvm_callback_vector() clocksource_watchdog() uses cpu_online_mask to pick the next CPU to handle a watchdog timer: /* * Cycle through CPUs to check if the CPUs stay synchronized * to each other. */ next_cpu = cpumask_next(raw_smp_processor_id(), cpu_online_mask); if (next_cpu >= nr_cpu_ids) next_cpu = cpumask_first(cpu_online_mask); watchdog_timer.expires += WATCHDOG_INTERVAL; add_timer_on(&watchdog_timer, next_cpu); This resulted in an attempt to send an IPI to a hot-plugging CPU that had not initialized its reschedule vector. One option would be to make the RCU code check to not check for CPU offline but for CPU active. As becoming active is done after a CPU is online (in older kernels). But Srivatsa pointed out that "the cpu_active vs cpu_online ordering has been completely reworked - in the online path, cpu_active is set *before* cpu_online, and also, in the cpu offline path, the cpu_active bit is reset in the CPU_DYING notification instead of CPU_DOWN_PREPARE." Drilling in this the bring-up path: "[brought up CPU].. send out a CPU_STARTING notification, and in response to that, the scheduler sets the CPU in the cpu_active_mask. Again, this mask is better left to the scheduler alone, since it has the intelligence to use it judiciously." The conclusion was that: " 1. At the IPI sender side: It is incorrect to send an IPI to an offline CPU (cpu not present in the cpu_online_mask). There are numerous places where we check this and warn/complain. 2. At the IPI receiver side: It is incorrect to let the world know of our presence (by setting ourselves in global bitmasks) until our initialization steps are complete to such an extent that we can handle the consequences (such as receiving interrupts without crashing the sender etc.) " (from Srivatsa) As the native code enables the interrupts at some point we need to be able to service them. In other words a CPU must have valid IPI vectors if it has been marked online. It doesn't need to handle the IPI (interrupts may be disabled) but needs to have valid IPI vectors because another CPU may find it in cpu_online_mask and attempt to send it an IPI. This patch will change the order of the Xen vCPU bring-up functions so that Xen vectors have been set up before start_secondary() is called. It also will not continue to bring up a Xen vCPU if xen_smp_intr_init() fails to initialize it. Orabug 13823853 Signed-off-by Chuck Anderson <chuck.anderson@oracle.com> Acked-by: Srivatsa S.

4704fe4 xen/events: mask events when changing their VCPU binding When a event is being bound to a VCPU there is a window between the EVTCHNOP_bind_vpcu call and the adjustment of the local per-cpu masks where an event may be lost. The hypervisor upcalls the new VCPU but the kernel thinks that event is still bound to the old VCPU and ignores it. There is even a problem when the event is being bound to the same VCPU as there is a small window beween the clear_bit() and set_bit() calls in bind_evtchn_to_cpu(). When scanning for pending events, the kernel may read the bit when it is momentarily clear and ignore the event. Avoid this by masking the event during the whole bind operation.

84ca7a8 xen/events: initialize local per-cpu mask for all possible events The sizeof() argument in init_evtchn_cpu_bindings() is incorrect resulting in only the first 64 (or 32 in 32-bit guests) ports having their bindings being initialized to VCPU 0. In most cases this does not cause a problem as request_irq() will set the irq affinity which will set the correct local per-cpu mask. However, if the request_irq() is called on a VCPU other than 0, there is a window between the unmasking of the event and the affinity being set were an event may be lost because it is not locally unmasked on any VCPU. If request_irq() is called on VCPU 0 then local irqs are disabled during the window and the race does not occur. Fix this by initializing all NR_EVENT_CHANNEL bits in the local per-cpu masks.

3bc38cb x86/xen: do not identity map UNUSABLE regions in the machine E820 If there are UNUSABLE regions in the machine memory map, dom0 will attempt to map them 1:1 which is not permitted by Xen and the kernel will crash. There isn't anything interesting in the UNUSABLE region that the dom0 kernel needs access to so we can avoid making the 1:1 mapping and treat it as RAM. We only do this for dom0, as that is where tboot case shows up. A PV domU could have an UNUSABLE region in its pseudo-physical map and would need to be handled in another patch.

49baea8 bnx2x: set VF DMAE when first function has 0 supported VFs There are possible HW configurations in which PFs will have SR-IOV capability but will have Max VFs set to 0 - this happens when there are Multi-Function devices where the VFs are allocated to only some of the PFs. DMAE is configured to support VFs only if the configuring PF has supported VFs. In case the first PF to be loaded will be one without supported VFs, it will not configure DMAE to the VF-supporting mode. When VFs of other PFs will be loaded later on, they will not be able to communicate with their PF. This changes the requirement for configuring DMAE for VF-supporting mode; If the device has SR-IOV capabilities there must be some PF that has max supported VFs > 0, thus it will configure the DMAE for supporting VFs.

4b08a8f ipv6: remove max_addresses check from ipv6_create_tempaddr Because of the max_addresses check attackers were able to disable privacy extensions on an interface by creating enough autoconfigured addresses: <http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2012/q4/292> But the check is not actually needed: max_addresses protects the kernel to install too many ipv6 addresses on an interface and guards addrconf_prefix_rcv to install further addresses as soon as this limit is reached. We only generate temporary addresses in direct response of a new address showing up. As soon as we filled up the maximum number of addresses of an interface, we stop installing more addresses and thus also stop generating more temp addresses. Even if the attacker tries to generate a lot of temporary addresses by announcing a prefix and removing it again (lifetime == 0) we won't install more temp addresses, because the temporary addresses do count to the maximum number of addresses, thus we would stop installing new autoconfigured addresses when the limit is reached. This patch fixes CVE-2013-0343 (but other layer-2 attacks are still possible). Thanks to Ding Tianhong to bring this topic up again.

fd3930f proc: more readdir conversion bug-fixes In the previous commit, Richard Genoud fixed proc_root_readdir(), which had lost the check for whether all of the non-process /proc entries had been returned or not. But that in turn exposed _another_ bug, namely that the original readdir conversion patch had yet another problem: it had lost the return value of proc_readdir_de(), so now checking whether it had completed successfully or not didn't actually work right anyway. This reinstates the non-zero return for the "end of base entries" that had also gotten lost in commit f0c3b5093add ("[readdir] convert procfs"). So now you get all the base entries *and* you get all the process entries, regardless of getdents buffer size. (Side note: the Linux "getdents" manual page actually has a nice example application for testing getdents, which can be easily modified to use different buffers. Who knew? Man-pages can be useful) Reported-by: Emmanuel Benisty <benisty.e@gmail.com> Reported-by: Marc Dionne <marc.c.dionne@gmail.com> Cc: Richard Genoud <richard.genoud@gmail.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 19 August 2013, 23:26:12 UTC

94fc5d9 proc: return on proc_readdir error Commit f0c3b5093add ("[readdir] convert procfs") introduced a bug on the listing of the proc file-system. The return value of proc_readdir() isn't tested anymore in the proc_root_readdir function. This lead to an "interesting" behaviour when we are using the getdents() system call with a buffer too small: instead of failing, it returns the first entries of /proc (enough to fill the given buffer), plus the PID directories.

1bc333f GFS2: don't overrun reserved revokes When run during fsync, a gfs2_log_flush could happen between the time when gfs2_ail_flush checked the number of blocks to revoke, and when it actually started the transaction to do those revokes. This occassionally caused it to need more revokes than it reserved, causing gfs2 to crash. Instead of just reserving enough revokes to handle the blocks that currently need them, this patch makes gfs2_ail_flush reserve the maximum number of revokes it can, without increasing the total number of reserved log blocks. This patch also passes the number of reserved revokes to __gfs2_ail_flush() so that it doesn't go over its limit and cause a crash like we're seeing. Non-fsync calls to __gfs2_ail_flush will still cause a BUG() necessary revokes are skipped.

Note that even though we call unmap with our own dev->struct_mutex held that won't result in an immediate deadlock since we never go through the dma_buf interfaces for our own, reimported buffers. But it's still easy to blow up and anger lockdep, but that's already the case with our ->map implementation. Fixing this for real will involve per dma-buf ww mutex locking by the callers. And lots of fun. So go with the duct-tape approach for now.

However that function gets called from truncate path and thus inode needn't have jinode attached - that happens in ext4_file_open() but the file needn't be ever open since mount. Calling jbd2_journal_file_inode() without jinode attached results in the oops. We fix the problem by attaching jinode to inode also in ext4_truncate() and ext4_punch_hole() when we are going to zero out partial blocks.

2b04725 Fix TLB gather virtual address range invalidation corner cases Ben Tebulin reported: "Since v3.7.2 on two independent machines a very specific Git repository fails in 9/10 cases on git-fsck due to an SHA1/memory failures. This only occurs on a very specific repository and can be reproduced stably on two independent laptops. Git mailing list ran out of ideas and for me this looks like some very exotic kernel issue" and bisected the failure to the backport of commit 53a59fc67f97 ("mm: limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT"). That commit itself is not actually buggy, but what it does is to make it much more likely to hit the partial TLB invalidation case, since it introduces a new case in tlb_next_batch() that previously only ever happened when running out of memory. The real bug is that the TLB gather virtual memory range setup is subtly buggered. It was introduced in commit 597e1c3580b7 ("mm/mmu_gather: enable tlb flush range in generic mmu_gather"), and the range handling was already fixed at least once in commit e6c495a96ce0 ("mm: fix the TLB range flushed when __tlb_remove_page() runs out of slots"), but that fix was not complete. The problem with the TLB gather virtual address range is that it isn't set up by the initial tlb_gather_mmu() initialization (which didn't get the TLB range information), but it is set up ad-hoc later by the functions that actually flush the TLB. And so any such case that forgot to update the TLB range entries would potentially miss TLB invalidates. Rather than try to figure out exactly which particular ad-hoc range setup was missing (I personally suspect it's the hugetlb case in zap_huge_pmd(), which didn't have the same logic as zap_pte_range() did), this patch just gets rid of the problem at the source: make the TLB range information available to tlb_gather_mmu(), and initialize it when initializing all the other tlb gather fields. This makes the patch larger, but conceptually much simpler. And the end result is much more understandable; even if you want to play games with partial ranges when invalidating the TLB contents in chunks, now the range information is always there, and anybody who doesn't want to bother with it won't introduce subtle bugs. Ben verified that this fixes his problem.

0a324f3 net/mlx5_core: Support MANAGE_PAGES and QUERY_PAGES firmware command changes In the previous QUERY_PAGES command version we used one command to get the required amount of boot, init and post init pages. The new version uses the op_mod field to specify whether the query is for the required amount of boot, init or post init pages. In addition the output field size for the required amount of pages increased from 16 to 32 bits. In MANAGE_PAGES command the input_num_entries and output_num_entries fields sizes changed from 16 to 32 bits and the PAS tables offset changed to 0x10. In the pages request event the num_pages field also changed to 32 bits. In the HCA-capabilities-layout the size and location of max_qp_mcg field has been changed to support 24 bits. This patch isn't compatible with firmware versions < 5; however, it turns out that the first GA firmware we will publish will not support previous versions so this should be OK.
