We store requests for channel path configure operations in an array but maintain an additional cfg_busy variable (indicating if we have requests stored in said array). When 2 tasks request a channel path configure operation cfg_busy could be set to 0 even if we still have unprocessed requests. This would lead to the second task being woken up although its request was not processed yet. Fix that by getting rid of cfg_busy and use the chp_cfg_task array in the wake up condition.

cfg_lock is never held long and we don't want to sleep while the lock is being held. Thus it can be converted to a simple spinlock. In addition we can now use the lock during the evaluation of a wake_up condition.

The hugetlbfs pte<->pmd conversion functions currently assume that the pmd bit layout is consistent with the pte layout, which is not really true. The SW read and write bits are encoded as the sequence "wr" in a pte, but in a pmd it is "rw". The hugetlbfs conversion assumes that the sequence is identical in both cases, which results in swapped read and write bits in the pmd. In practice this is not a problem, because those pmd bits are only relevant for THP pmds and not for hugetlbfs pmds. The hugetlbfs code works on (fake) ptes, and the converted pte bits are correct. There is another variation in pte/pmd encoding which affects dirty prot-none ptes/pmds. In this case, a pmd has both its HW read-only and invalid bit set, while it is only the invalid bit for a pte. This also has no effect in practice, but it should better be consistent. This patch fixes both inconsistencies by changing the SW read/write bit layout for pmds as well as the PAGE_NONE encoding for ptes. It also makes the hugetlbfs conversion functions more robust by introducing a move_set_bit() macro that uses the pte/pmd bit #defines instead of constant shifts.

On a system with sparse node ids, eg. a powerpc system with 4 nodes numbered like so: node 0: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x00000007ffffffff] node 1: [mem 0x0000000800000000-0x0000000fffffffff] node 16: [mem 0x0000001000000000-0x00000017ffffffff] node 17: [mem 0x0000001800000000-0x0000001fffffffff] The code in rand_initialize() will allocate 4 pointers for the pool array, and initialise them correctly. However when go to use the pool, in eg. extract_crng(), we use the numa_node_id() to index into the array. For the higher numbered node ids this leads to random memory corruption, depending on what was kmalloc'ed adjacent to the pool array. Fix it by using nr_node_ids to size the pool array.

Pull userns vfs updates from Eric Biederman: "This tree contains some very long awaited work on generalizing the user namespace support for mounting filesystems to include filesystems with a backing store. The real world target is fuse but the goal is to update the vfs to allow any filesystem to be supported. This patchset is based on a lot of code review and testing to approach that goal. While looking at what is needed to support the fuse filesystem it became clear that there were things like xattrs for security modules that needed special treatment. That the resolution of those concerns would not be fuse specific. That sorting out these general issues made most sense at the generic level, where the right people could be drawn into the conversation, and the issues could be solved for everyone. At a high level what this patchset does a couple of simple things: - Add a user namespace owner (s_user_ns) to struct super_block. - Teach the vfs to handle filesystem uids and gids not mapping into to kuids and kgids and being reported as INVALID_UID and INVALID_GID in vfs data structures. By assigning a user namespace owner filesystems that are mounted with only user namespace privilege can be detected. This allows security modules and the like to know which mounts may not be trusted. This also allows the set of uids and gids that are communicated to the filesystem to be capped at the set of kuids and kgids that are in the owning user namespace of the filesystem. One of the crazier corner casees this handles is the case of inodes whose i_uid or i_gid are not mapped into the vfs. Most of the code simply doesn't care but it is easy to confuse the inode writeback path so no operation that could cause an inode write-back is permitted for such inodes (aka only reads are allowed). This set of changes starts out by cleaning up the code paths involved in user namespace permirted mounts. Then when things are clean enough adds code that cleanly sets s_user_ns. Then additional restrictions are added that are possible now that the filesystem superblock contains owner information. These changes should not affect anyone in practice, but there are some parts of these restrictions that are changes in behavior. - Andy's restriction on suid executables that does not honor the suid bit when the path is from another mount namespace (think /proc/[pid]/fd/) or when the filesystem was mounted by a less privileged user. - The replacement of the user namespace implicit setting of MNT_NODEV with implicitly setting SB_I_NODEV on the filesystem superblock instead. Using SB_I_NODEV is a stronger form that happens to make this state user invisible. The user visibility can be managed but it caused problems when it was introduced from applications reasonably expecting mount flags to be what they were set to. There is a little bit of work remaining before it is safe to support mounting filesystems with backing store in user namespaces, beyond what is in this set of changes. - Verifying the mounter has permission to read/write the block device during mount. - Teaching the integrity modules IMA and EVM to handle filesystems mounted with only user namespace root and to reduce trust in their security xattrs accordingly. - Capturing the mounters credentials and using that for permission checks in d_automount and the like. (Given that overlayfs already does this, and we need the work in d_automount it make sense to generalize this case). Furthermore there are a few changes that are on the wishlist: - Get all filesystems supporting posix acls using the generic posix acls so that posix_acl_fix_xattr_from_user and posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user may be removed. [Maintainability] - Reducing the permission checks in places such as remount to allow the superblock owner to perform them. - Allowing the superblock owner to chown files with unmapped uids and gids to something that is mapped so the files may be treated normally. I am not considering even obvious relaxations of permission checks until it is clear there are no more corner cases that need to be locked down and handled generically.

Buck and LDO binding name changes. The binding names for the regulators have been changed to match the current expectation from existing device tree source files. This fix rectifies the disparity between what currently exists in some .dts[i] board files and what is listed in this binding document. This change re-aligns those differences and also brings the binding document in-line with the expectations of the product datasheet from Dialog Semiconductor. Bucks and LDOs now follow the expected notation: { buck1, buck2, buck3, buck4 } { ldo1, ldo2, ldo3, ldo4, ldo5, ldo6, ldo7, ldo8, ldo9, ldo10 } Signed-off-by: Steve Twiss <stwiss.opensource@diasemi.com> Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>

This reverts commit 3c9fe8cd. As Miklos points out in commit c1b2cc1a, the "lookup_hash()" helper is now unused, and in fact, with the hash salting changes, since the hash of a dentry name now depends on the directory dentry it is in, the helper function isn't even really likely to be useful. So rather than keep it around in case somebody else might end up finding a use for it, let's just remove the helper and not trick people into thinking it might be a useful thing. For example, I had obviously completely missed how the helper didn't follow the normal dentry hashing patterns, and how the hash salting patch broke overlayfs. Things would quietly build and look sane, but not work. Suggested-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
