      virtio/console: Add pipe_lock/unlock for splice_write · 2b4fbf02
      Yoshihiro YUNOMAE authored 
      Add pipe_lock/unlock for splice_write to avoid oops by following competition:

(1) An application gets fds of a trace buffer, virtio-serial, pipe.
(2) The application does fork()
(3) The processes execute splice_read(trace buffer) and
    splice_write(virtio-serial) via same pipe.

        <parent>                   <child>
  get fds of a trace buffer,
         virtio-serial, pipe
          |
        fork()----------create--------+
          |                           |
      splice(read)                    |           ---+
      splice(write)                   |              +-- no competition
          |                       splice(read)       |
          |                       splice(write)   ---+
          |                           |
      splice(read)                    |
      splice(write)               splice(read)    ------ competition
          |                       splice(write)

Two processes share a pipe_inode_info structure. If the child execute
splice(read) when the parent tries to execute splice(write), the
structure can be broken. Existing virtio-serial driver does not get
lock for the structure in splice_write, so this competition will induce
oops.

      virtio/console: Quit from splice_write if pipe->nrbufs is 0 · 68c034fe
      Yoshihiro YUNOMAE authored 
      Quit from splice_write if pipe->nrbufs is 0 for avoiding oops in virtio-serial.

When an application was doing splice from a kernel buffer to virtio-serial on
a guest, the application received signal(SIGINT). This situation will normally
happen, but the kernel executed a kernel panic by oops as follows:

It seems to induce pagefault in sg_init_tabel() when pipe->nrbufs is equal to
zero. This may happen in a following situation:

(1) The application normally does splice(read) from a kernel buffer, then does
    splice(write) to virtio-serial.
(2) The application receives SIGINT when is doing splice(read), so splice(read)
    is failed by EINTR. However, the application does not finish the operation.
(3) The application tries to do splice(write) without pipe->nrbufs.
(4) The virtio-console driver tries to touch scatterlist structure sgl in
    sg_init_table(), but the region is out of bound.

To avoid the case, a kernel should check whether pipe->nrbufs is empty or not
when splice_write is executed in the virtio-console driver.

      Pull ACPI video support fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "I'm sending a separate pull request for this as it may be somewhat
  controversial.  The breakage addressed here is not really new and the
  fixes may not satisfy all users of the affected systems, but we've had
  so much back and forth dance in this area over the last several weeks
  that I think it's time to actually make some progress.

  The source of the problem is that about a year ago we started to tell
  BIOSes that we're compatible with Windows 8, which we really need to
  do, because some systems shipping with Windows 8 are tested with it
  and nothing else, so if we tell their BIOSes that we aren't compatible
  with Windows 8, we expose our users to untested BIOS/AML code paths.

  However, as it turns out, some Windows 8-specific AML code paths are
  not tested either, because Windows 8 actually doesn't use the ACPI
  methods containing them, so if we declare Windows 8 compatibility and
  attempt to use those ACPI methods, things break.  That occurs mostly
  in the backlight support area where in particular the _BCM and _BQC
  methods are plain unusable on some systems if the OS declares Windows
  8 compatibility.

  [ The additional twist is that they actually become usable if the OS
    says it is not compatible with Windows 8, but that may cause
    problems to show up elsewhere ]

  Investigation carried out by Matthew Garrett indicates that what
  Windows 8 does about backlight is to leave backlight control up to
  individual graphics drivers.  At least there's evidence that it does
  that if the Intel graphics driver is used, so we've decided to follow
  Windows 8 in that respect and allow i915 to control backlight (Daniel
  likes that part).

  The first commit from Aaron Lu makes ACPICA export the variable from
  which we can infer whether or not the BIOS believes that we are
  compatible with Windows 8.

  The second commit from Matthew Garrett prepares the ACPI video driver
  by making it initialize the ACPI backlight even if it is not going to
  be used afterward (that is needed for backlight control to work on
  Thinkpads).

  The third commit implements the actual workaround making i915 take
  over backlight control if the firmware thinks it's dealing with
  Windows 8 and is based on the work of multiple developers, including
  Matthew Garrett, Chun-Yi Lee, Seth Forshee, and Aaron Lu.

  The final commit from Aaron Lu makes us follow Windows 8 by informing
  the firmware through the _DOS method that it should not carry out
  automatic brightness changes, so that brightness can be controlled by
  GUI.

  Hopefully, this approach will allow us to avoid using blacklists of
  systems that should not declare Windows 8 compatibility just to avoid
  backlight control problems in the future.

   - Change from Aaron Lu makes ACPICA export a variable which can be
     used by driver code to determine whether or not the BIOS believes
     that we are compatible with Windows 8.

   - Change from Matthew Garrett makes the ACPI video driver initialize
     the ACPI backlight even if it is not going to be used afterward
     (that is needed for backlight control to work on Thinkpads).

   - Fix from Rafael J Wysocki implements Windows 8 backlight support
     workaround making i915 take over bakclight control if the firmware
     thinks it's dealing with Windows 8.  Based on the work of multiple
     developers including Matthew Garrett, Chun-Yi Lee, Seth Forshee,
     and Aaron Lu.

   - Fix from Aaron Lu makes the kernel follow Windows 8 by informing
     the firmware through the _DOS method that it should not carry out
     automatic brightness changes, so that brightness can be controlled
     by GUI"

      Zheng Liu authored 
      When we try to open a file with O_TMPFILE flag, we will trigger a bug.
The root cause is that in ext4_orphan_add() we check ->i_nlink == 0 and
this check always fails because we set ->i_nlink = 1 in
inode_init_always().  We can use the following program to trigger it:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	int fd;

	fd = open(argv[1], O_TMPFILE, 0666);
	if (fd < 0) {
		perror("open ");
		return -1;
	}
	close(fd);
	return 0;
}

The oops message looks like this:

Here we couldn't call clear_nlink() directly because in d_tmpfile() we

      ext4: fix a BUG when opening a file with O_TMPFILE flag · e94bd349
      Zheng Liu authored 
      When we try to open a file with O_TMPFILE flag, we will trigger a bug.
The root cause is that in ext4_orphan_add() we check ->i_nlink == 0 and
this check always fails because we set ->i_nlink = 1 in
inode_init_always().  We can use the following program to trigger it:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	int fd;

	fd = open(argv[1], O_TMPFILE, 0666);
	if (fd < 0) {
		perror("open ");
		return -1;
	}
	close(fd);
	return 0;
}

The oops message looks like this:

Here we couldn't call clear_nlink() directly because in d_tmpfile() we
will call inode_dec_link_count() to decrease ->i_nlink.  So this commit
tries to call d_tmpfile() before ext4_orphan_add() to fix this problem.

 "Here are a few iio driver fixes for 3.11-rc2.  They are still spread

  through this tree.

  I've also removed the drivers/staging/csr/ driver as the developers
  who originally sent it to me have moved on to other companies, and CSR
  still will not send us the specs for the device, making the driver
  pretty much obsolete and impossible to fix up.  Deleting it now
  prevents people from sending in lots of tiny codingsyle fixes that
  will never go anywhere.

  It also helps to offset the large lustre filesystem merge that
  happened in 3.11-rc1 in the overall 3.11.0 diffstat.  :)"

      livelock avoidance in sget() · acfec9a5
      Al Viro authored 
      Eric Sandeen has found a nasty livelock in sget() - take a mount(2) about
to fail.  The superblock is on ->fs_supers, ->s_umount is held exclusive,
->s_active is 1.  Along comes two more processes, trying to mount the same
thing; sget() in each is picking that superblock, bumping ->s_count and
trying to grab ->s_umount.  ->s_active is 3 now.  Original mount(2)
finally gets to deactivate_locked_super() on failure; ->s_active is 2,
superblock is still ->fs_supers because shutdown will *not* happen until
->s_active hits 0.  ->s_umount is dropped and now we have two processes
chasing each other:
s_active = 2, A acquired ->s_umount, B blocked
A sees that the damn thing is stillborn, does deactivate_locked_super()
s_active = 1, A drops ->s_umount, B gets it
A restarts the search and finds the same superblock.  And bumps it ->s_active.
s_active = 2, B holds ->s_umount, A blocked on trying to get it
... and we are in the earlier situation with A and B switched places.

The root cause, of course, is that ->s_active should not grow until we'd
got MS_BORN.  Then failing ->mount() will have deactivate_locked_super()
shut the damn thing down.  Fortunately, it's easy to do - the key point
is that grab_super() is called only for superblocks currently on ->fs_supers,
so it can bump ->s_count and grab ->s_umount first, then check MS_BORN and
bump ->s_active; we must never increment ->s_count for superblocks past
->kill_sb(), but grab_super() is never called for those.

The bug is pretty old; we would've caught it by now, if not for accidental
exclusion between sget() for block filesystems; the things like cgroup or
e.g. mtd-based filesystems don't have anything of that sort, so they get
bitten.  The right way to deal with that is obviously to fix sget()...
