commit cbb33004 upstream. This patch (as1465) continues implementation of the policy that errors during suspend or hibernation should not prevent the system from going to sleep. In this case, failure to turn on the Suspend feature for a hub port shouldn't be reported as an error. There are situations where this does actually occur (such as when the device plugged into that port was disconnected in the recent past), and it turns out to be harmless. There's no reason for it to prevent a system sleep. Also, don't allow the hub driver to fail a system suspend if the downstream ports aren't all suspended. This is also harmless (and should never happen, given the change mentioned above); printing a warning message in the kernel log is all we really need to do. Signed-off-by:

commit 0af212ba upstream. This patch (as1464) implements the recommended policy that most errors during suspend or hibernation should not prevent the system from going to sleep. In particular, failure to suspend a USB driver or a USB device should not prevent the sleep from succeeding: Failure to suspend a device won't matter, because the device will automatically go into suspend mode when the USB bus stops carrying packets. (This might be less true for USB-3.0 devices, but let's not worry about them now.) Failure of a driver to suspend might lead to trouble later on when the system wakes up, but it isn't sufficient reason to prevent the system from going to sleep. Signed-off-by:

commit 26c4caea upstream. Currently a single process may register exit handlers unlimited times. It may lead to a bloated listeners chain and very slow process terminations. Eg after 10KK sent TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_REGISTER_CPUMASKs ~300 Mb of kernel memory is stolen for the handlers chain and "time id" shows 2-7 seconds instead of normal 0.003. It makes it possible to exhaust all kernel memory and to eat much of CPU time by triggerring numerous exits on a single CPU. The patch limits the number of times a single process may register itself on a single CPU to one. One little issue is kept unfixed - as taskstats_exit() is called before exit_files() in do_exit(), the orphaned listener entry (if it was not explicitly deregistered) is kept until the next someone's exit() and implicit deregistration in send_cpu_listeners(). So, if a process registered itself as a listener exits and the next spawned process gets the same pid, it would inherit taskstats attributes. Signed-off-by:

The same problem is present in the 6pack driver, this patch fixes both by using write_lock_bh instead of write_lock. Reported-by:

commit 4274215d upstream. If a device fails in a way that causes pending request to take a while to complete, md will not be able to immediately remove it from the array in remove_and_add_spares. It will then incorrectly look like a spare device and md will try to recover it even though it is failed. This leads to a recovery process starting and instantly aborting over and over again. We should check if the device is faulty before considering it to be a spare. This will avoid trying to start a recovery that cannot proceed. This bug was introduced in 2.6.26 so that patch is suitable for any kernel since then. Reported-by:

commit ab4bd22d upstream. Since we are modifying this RCU pointer, we need to hold the lock protecting it around it. This fixes a potential reuse and double free of a cfq io_context structure. The bug has been in CFQ for a long time, it hit very few people but those it did hit seemed to see it a lot. Tracked in RH bugzilla here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=577968 Credit goes to Paul Bolle for figuring out that the issue was around the one-hit ioc->ioc_data cache. Thanks to his hard work the issue is now fixed. Signed-off-by:

commit b0320c7b upstream. When 1GB hugepages are allocated on a system, free(1) reports less available memory than what really is installed in the box. Also, if the total size of hugepages allocated on a system is over half of the total memory size, CommitLimit becomes a negative number. The problem is that gigantic hugepages (order > MAX_ORDER) can only be allocated at boot with bootmem, thus its frames are not accounted to 'totalram_pages'. However, they are accounted to hugetlb_total_pages() What happens to turn CommitLimit into a negative number is this calculation, in fs/proc/meminfo.c: allowed = ((totalram_pages - hugetlb_total_pages()) * sysctl_overcommit_ratio / 100) + total_swap_pages; A similar calculation occurs in __vm_enough_memory() in mm/mmap.c. Also, every vm statistic which depends on 'totalram_pages' will render confusing values, as if system were 'missing' some part of its memory. Impact of this bug: When gigantic hugepages are allocated and sysctl_overcommit_memory == OVERCOMMIT_NEVER. In a such situation, __vm_enough_memory() goes through the mentioned 'allowed' calculation and might end up mistakenly returning -ENOMEM, thus forcing the system to start reclaiming pages earlier than it would be ususal, and this could cause detrimental impact to overall system's performance, depending on the workload. Besides the aforementioned scenario, I can only think of this causing annoyances with memory reports from /proc/meminfo and free(1).

commit 8440f4b1 upstream. When opening /dev/snapshot device, snapshot_open() creates memory bitmaps which are freed in snapshot_release(). But if any of the callbacks called by pm_notifier_call_chain() returns NOTIFY_BAD, open() fails, snapshot_release() is never called and bitmaps are not freed. Next attempt to open /dev/snapshot then triggers BUG_ON() check in create_basic_memory_bitmaps(). This happens e.g. when vmwatchdog module is active on s390x. Signed-off-by:

commit fa75ac37 upstream. While trying to switch a UAS device from the BOT configuration to the UAS configuration via the bConfigurationValue file, Tanya ran into an issue in the USB core. usb_disable_device() sets entries in udev->ep_out and udev->ep_out to NULL, but doesn't call into the xHCI bandwidth management functions to remove the BOT configuration endpoints from the xHCI host's internal structures. The USB core would then attempt to add endpoints for the UAS configuration, and some of the endpoints had the same address as endpoints in the BOT configuration. The xHCI driver blindly added the endpoints again, but the xHCI host controller rejected the Configure Endpoint command because active endpoints were added without being dropped. Make the xHCI driver reject calls to xhci_add_endpoint() that attempt to add active endpoints without first calling xhci_drop_endpoint(). This should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.31.

commit 92f6fa09 upstream. We restored tty_ldisc_wait_idle in 100eeae2 (TTY: restore tty_ldisc_wait_idle). We used it in the ldisc changing path to fix the case where there are tasks in n_tty_read waiting for data and somebody tries to change ldisc. Similar to the case above, there may be also tasks waiting in n_tty_read while hangup is performed. As 65b77046 (tty-ldisc: turn ldisc user count into a proper refcount) removed the wait-until-idle from all paths, hangup path won't wait for them to disappear either now. So add it back even to the hangup path. There is a difference, we need uninterruptible sleep as there is obviously HUP signal pending. So tty_ldisc_wait_idle now sleeps without possibility to be interrupted. This is what original tty_ldisc_wait_idle did. After the wait idle reintroduction (100eeae2), we have had interruptible sleeps for the ldisc changing path. But as there is a 5s timeout anyway, we don't allow it to be interrupted from now on. It's not worth the added complexity of deciding what kind of sleep we want. Before 65b77046 tty_ldisc_release was called also from tty_ldisc_release. It is called from tty_release, so I don't think we need to restore that one.

commit b5199515 upstream. The clocksource watchdog code is interruptible and it has been observed that this can trigger false positives which disable the TSC. The reason is that an interrupt storm or a long running interrupt handler between the read of the watchdog source and the read of the TSC brings the two far enough apart that the delta is larger than the unstable treshold. Move both reads into a short interrupt disabled region to avoid that. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit a91d9287 upstream. We only need to set max_pfn_mapped to the last pfn mapped on x86_64 to make sure that cleanup_highmap doesn't remove important mappings at _end. We don't need to do this on x86_32 because cleanup_highmap is not called on x86_32. Besides lowering max_pfn_mapped on x86_32 has the unwanted side effect of limiting the amount of memory available for the 1:1 kernel pagetable allocation. This patch reverts the x86_32 part of the original patch. Signed-off-by:

commit a386b5af upstream. When the clocksource is not a multiple of HZ, the clock will be off. For acpi_pm, HZ=1000 the error is 127.111 ppm: The rounding of cycle_interval ends up generating a false error term in ntp_error accumulation since xtime_interval is not exactly 1/HZ. So, we subtract out the error caused by the rounding. This has been visible since 2.6.32-rc2 commit a092ff0f time: Implement logarithmic time accumulation That commit raised NTP_INTERVAL_FREQ and exposed the rounding error. testing tool: http://n1.taur.dk/permanent/testpmt.c Also tested with ntpd and a frequency counter.

commit 6903591f upstream. The IRQ core code will take care of disabling and reenabling interrupts over suspend resume automatically, therefore we do not need to do this in the Xen event channel code. The only exception is those event channels marked IRQF_NO_SUSPEND which the IRQ core ignores. We must unmask these ourselves, taking care to obey the current IRQ_DISABLED status. Failure check for IRQ_DISABLED leads to enabling polled only event channels, such as that associated with the pv spinlocks, which must never be enabled: [ 21.970432] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 21.970432] kernel BUG at arch/x86/xen/spinlock.c:343!

commit dac853ae upstream. Unconditionally changing the address limit to USER_DS and not restoring it to its old value in the error path is wrong because it prevents us using kernel memory on repeated calls to this function. This, in fact, breaks the fallback of hard coded paths to the init program from being ever successful if the first candidate fails to load. With this patch applied switching to USER_DS is delayed until the point of no return is reached which makes it possible to have a multi-arch rootfs with one arch specific init binary for each of the (hard coded) probed paths. Since the address limit is already set to USER_DS when start_thread() will be invoked, this redundancy can be safely removed. Signed-off-by:

commit 081003ff upstream. When marking an inode reclaimable, a per-AG counter is increased, the inode is tagged reclaimable in its per-AG tree, and, when this is the first reclaimable inode in the AG, the AG entry in the per-mount tree is also tagged. When an inode is finally reclaimed, however, it is only deleted from the per-AG tree. Neither the counter is decreased, nor is the parent tree's AG entry untagged properly. Since the tags in the per-mount tree are not cleared, the inode shrinker iterates over all AGs that have had reclaimable inodes at one point in time. The counters on the other hand signal an increasing amount of slab objects to reclaim. Since "70e60ce7 xfs: convert inode shrinker to per-filesystem context" this is not a real issue anymore because the shrinker bails out after one iteration. But the problem was observable on a machine running v2.6.34, where the reclaimable work increased and each process going into direct reclaim eventually got stuck on the xfs inode shrinking path, trying to scan several million objects. Fix this by properly unwinding the reclaimable-state tracking of an inode when it is reclaimed. Signed-off-by:

commit b7b30de5 upstream. Previously, we assumed the only Device object immediately below the root was the \_SB Scope (which the ACPI CA treats as a Device), so we forced the HID of all such objects to ACPI_BUS_HID ("LNXSYBUS"). However, there are DSDTs that supply root-level Device objects with _HIDs. This patch makes us pay attention to those _HIDs and only add the synthetic ACPI_BUS_HID for root-level objects that do not supply their own _HID. For example, this DSDT: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15605 contains: Scope (_SB) { ... } Device (AMW0) { Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0C14")) ... } and we should use "PNP0C14" for the AMW0 device, not "LNXSYBUS".

commit 9281b16c upstream. The old IDE cmd64x checks the status of the CNTRL register to see if the ports are enabled before probing them. pata_cmd64x doesn't do this, which causes a HPMC on parisc when it tries to poke at the secondary port because apparently the BAR isn't wired up (and a non-responding piece of memory causes a HPMC). Fix this by porting the CNTRL register port detection logic from IDE cmd64x. In addition, following converns from Alan Cox, add a check to see if a mobility electronics bridge is the immediate parent and forgo the check if it is (prevents problems on hotplug controllers).

commit b062962e upstream. Commit e9c7469b ("md: implment REQ_FLUSH/FUA support") introduced R5_WantFUA flag and set rw to WRITE_FUA in that case. However remaining code still checks whether rw is exactly same as WRITE or not, so FUAed-write ends up with being treated as READ. Fix it. This bug has been present since 2.6.37 and the fix is suitable for any -stable kernel since then. It is not clear why this has not caused more problems. Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by:

commit 9b2dc8b6 upstream. The @bio->bi_phys_segments consists of active stripes count in the lower 16 bits and processed stripes count in the upper 16 bits. So logical-OR operator should be bitwise one. This bug has been present since 2.6.27 and the fix is suitable for any -stable kernel since then. Fortunately the bad code is only used on error paths and is relatively unlikely to be hit. Signed-off-by:
