[ Upstream commit 5e8a402f ] Yuchung found following problem : There are bugs in the SACK processing code, merging part in tcp_shift_skb_data(), that incorrectly resets or ignores the sacked skbs FIN flag. When a receiver first SACK the FIN sequence, and later throw away ofo queue (e.g., sack-reneging), the sender will stop retransmitting the FIN flag, and hangs forever. Following packetdrill test can be used to reproduce the bug. $ cat sack-merge-bug.pkt `sysctl -q net.ipv4.tcp_fack=0` // Establish a connection and send 10 MSS. 0.000 socket(..., SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 3 +.000 setsockopt(3, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, [1], 4) = 0 +.000 bind(3, ..., ...) = 0 +.000 listen(3, 1) = 0 +.050 < S 0:0(0) win 32792 <mss 1000,sackOK,nop,nop,nop,wscale 7> +.000 > S. 0:0(0) ack 1 <mss 1460,nop,nop,sackOK,nop,wscale 6> +.001 < . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 1024 +.000 accept(3, ..., ...) = 4 +.100 write(4, ..., 12000) = 12000 +.000 shutdown(4, SHUT_WR) = 0 +.000 > . 1:10001(10000) ack 1 +.050 < . 1:1(0) ack 2001 win 257 +.000 > FP. 10001:12001(2000) ack 1 +.050 < . 1:1(0) ack 2001 win 257 <sack 10001:11001,nop,nop> +.050 < . 1:1(0) ack 2001 win 257 <sack 10001:12002,nop,nop> // SACK reneg +.050 < . 1:1(0) ack 12001 win 257 +0 %{ print "unacked: ",tcpi_unacked }% +5 %{ print "" }% First, a typo inverted left/right of one OR operation, then code forgot to advance end_seq if the merged skb carried FIN.

[ Upstream commit c52e2421 ] TCP stack should make sure it owns skbs before mangling them. We had various crashes using bnx2x, and it turned out gso_size was cleared right before bnx2x driver was populating TC descriptor of the _previous_ packet send. TCP stack can sometime retransmit packets that are still in Qdisc. Of course we could make bnx2x driver more robust (using ACCESS_ONCE(shinfo->gso_size) for example), but the bug is TCP stack. We have identified two points where skb_unclone() was needed. This patch adds a WARN_ON_ONCE() to warn us if we missed another fix of this kind. Kudos to Neal for finding the root cause of this bug. Its visible using small MSS. Signed-off-by:

commit d5a7b406 upstream. In patch 0d1862ea can: flexcan: fix flexcan_chip_start() on imx6 the loop in flexcan_chip_start() that iterates over all mailboxes after the soft reset of the CAN core was removed. This loop put all mailboxes (even the ones marked as reserved 1...7) into EMPTY/INACTIVE mode. On mailboxes 8...63, this aborts any pending TX messages. After a cold boot there is random garbage in the mailboxes, which leads to spontaneous transmit of CAN frames during first activation. Further if the interface was disabled with a pending message (usually due to an error condition on the CAN bus), this message is retransmitted after enabling the interface again. This patch fixes the regression by: 1) Limiting the maximum number of used mailboxes to 8, 0...7 are used by the RX FIFO, 8 is used by TX. 2) Marking the TX mailbox as EMPTY/INACTIVE, so that any pending TX of that mailbox is aborted.

commit b98b8bab upstream. This is primarily to address transmission timeout occurrences, when multiple H/W Tx queues are being used concurrently. Because in the priority scheduling mode the controller does not service the Tx queues equally (but in ascending index order), Tx timeouts are being triggered rightaway for a basic test with multiple simultaneous connections like: iperf -c <server_ip> -n 100M -P 8 resulting in kernel trace: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1 (fsl-gianfar): transmit queue <X> timed out ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at net/sched/sch_generic.c:255 ... and controller reset during intense traffic, and possibly further complications. This patch changes the default H/W Tx scheduling setting (TXSCHED) for multi-queue devices, from priority scheduling mode to a weighted round robin mode with equal weights for all H/W Tx queues, and addresses the issue above.

commit 4b59e6c4 upstream. On large systems with a lot of memory, walking all RAM to determine page types may take a half second or even more. In non-blockable contexts, the page allocator will emit a page allocation failure warning unless __GFP_NOWARN is specified. In such contexts, irqs are typically disabled and such a lengthy delay may even result in NMI watchdog timeouts. To fix this, suppress the page walk in such contexts when printing the page allocation failure warning. Signed-off-by:

commit 677a3156 upstream. The `insn_bits` handler `ni_65xx_dio_insn_bits()` has a `for` loop that currently writes (optionally) and reads back up to 5 "ports" consisting of 8 channels each. It reads up to 32 1-bit channels but can only read and write a whole port at once - it needs to handle up to 5 ports as the first channel it reads might not be aligned on a port boundary. It breaks out of the loop early if the next port it handles is beyond the final port on the card. It also breaks out early on the 5th port in the loop if the first channel was aligned. Unfortunately, it doesn't check that the current port it is dealing with belongs to the comedi subdevice the `insn_bits` handler is acting on. That's a bug. Redo the `for` loop to terminate after the final port belonging to the subdevice, changing the loop variable in the process to simplify things a bit. The `for` loop could now try and handle more than 5 ports if the subdevice has more than 40 channels, but the test `if (bitshift >= 32)` ensures it will break out early after 4 or 5 ports (depending on whether the first channel is aligned on a port boundary). (`bitshift` will be between -7 and 7 inclusive on the first iteration, increasing by 8 for each subsequent operation.) Signed-off-by:

commit 0e9a9a1a upstream. When trying to mount a file system which does not contain a journal, but which does have a orphan list containing an inode which needs to be truncated, the mount call with hang forever in ext4_orphan_cleanup() because ext4_orphan_del() will return immediately without removing the inode from the orphan list, leading to an uninterruptible loop in kernel code which will busy out one of the CPU's on the system. This can be trivially reproduced by trying to mount the file system found in tests/f_orphan_extents_inode/image.gz from the e2fsprogs source tree. If a malicious user were to put this on a USB stick, and mount it on a Linux desktop which has automatic mounts enabled, this could be considered a potential denial of service attack. (Not a big deal in practice, but professional paranoids worry about such things, and have even been known to allocate CVE numbers for such problems.) -js: This is a fix for CVE-2013-2015.

commit 17b7f7cf upstream. Refuse RW mount of isofs filesystem. So far we just silently changed it to RO mount but when the media is writeable, block layer won't notice this change and thus will think device is used RW and will block eject button of the drive. That is unexpected by users because for non-writeable media eject button works just fine. Userspace mount(8) command handles this just fine and retries mounting with MS_RDONLY set so userspace shouldn't see any regression. Plus any tool mounting isofs is likely confronted with the case of read-only media where block layer already refuses to mount the filesystem without MS_RDONLY set so our behavior shouldn't be anything new for it.

commit 03a1cec1 upstream. Boyd Yang reported a problem for the case that multiple threads of the same thread group are waiting for a reponse for a permission event. In this case it is possible that some of the threads are never woken up, even if the response for the event has been received (see http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=131822913806350&w=2). The reason is that we are currently merging permission events if they belong to the same thread group. But we are not prepared to wake up more than one waiter for each event. We do wait_event(group->fanotify_data.access_waitq, event->response || atomic_read(&group->fanotify_data.bypass_perm)); and after that event->response = 0; which is the reason that even if we woke up all waiters for the same event some of them may see event->response being already set 0 again, then go back to sleep and block forever. With this patch we avoid that more than one thread is waiting for a response by not merging permission events for the same thread group any more. Reported-by:

This bug fix is only for stable branches older than 3.10. The bug was fixed upstream by commit 2768935a ('sfc: reuse pages to avoid DMA mapping/unmapping costs'), but that change is totally unsuitable for stable. Commit b590ace0 ('sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() in the presence of swiotlb') added an explicit page_offset member to struct efx_rx_buffer, which must be set consistently with the u.page and dma_addr fields. However, it failed to add the necessary assignment in efx_resurrect_rx_buffer(). It also did not correct the calculation of efx_rx_buffer::dma_addr in efx_resurrect_rx_buffer(), which assumes that DMA-mapping a page will result in a page-aligned DMA address (exactly what swiotlb violates). Add the assignment of efx_rx_buffer::page_offset and change the calculation of dma_addr to make use of it. Signed-off-by:

commit ece793fc upstream. We try to linearize part of the skb when the number of iov is greater than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This is not enough since each single vector may occupy more than one pages, so zerocopy_sg_fromiovec() may still fail and may break the guest network. Solve this problem by calculate the pages needed for iov before trying to do zerocopy and switch to use copy instead of zerocopy if it needs more than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This is done through introducing a new helper to count the pages for iov, and call uarg->callback() manually when switching from zerocopy to copy to notify vhost. We can do further optimization on top. This bug were introduced from b92946e2 (macvtap: zerocopy: validate vectors before building skb). Cc: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit 9e443904, which was commit 57ab0485 upstream. Taking the semaphore here leads to sleeping in atomic context. This was fixed in mainline commit a0c516cb ("zram: don't grab mutex in zram_slot_free_noity") but that is too difficult to backport. Signed-off-by:

commit 5676005a upstream. need set '\0' for 'local_buffer'. SPLPAR_MAXLENGTH is 1026, RTAS_DATA_BUF_SIZE is 4096. so the contents of rtas_data_buf may truncated in memcpy. if contents are really truncated. the splpar_strlen is more than 1026. the next while loop checking will not find the end of buffer. that will cause memory access violation.

commit f84f52a5 upstream. There is a lot of years of collected cruft in the m68knommu linker script. Clean it all up and use the well defined linker script support macros. Support is maintained for building both ROM/FLASH based and RAM based setups. No major changes to section layouts, though the rodata section is now lumped in with the read/write data section.

commit ed865e31 upstream. Use the non-MMU linker script for ColdFire builds when we are building for MMU enabled. The image layout is correct for loading on existing ColdFire dev boards. The only addition required to the current non-MMU linker script is to add support for the fixup section. Signed-off-by:

commit 40c1b9cf upstream. The merge of m68knommu left the linker scripts a little disorganized. Some consistent naming and squashing two of scripts that just include others can simplify things a lot. So merge the two simple including scripts, and rename the nommu script to be consistent with the existing m68k linker scripts. Signed-off-by:

commit 481f2d4f upstream. The USB hub driver's event handler contains a check to catch SuperSpeed devices that transitioned into the SS.Inactive state and tries to fix them with a reset. It decides whether to do a plain hub port reset or call the usb_reset_device() function based on whether there was a device attached to the port. However, there are device/hub combinations (found with a JetFlash Transcend mass storage stick (8564:1000) on the root hub of an Intel LynxPoint PCH) which can transition to the SS.Inactive state on disconnect (and stay there long enough for the host to notice). In this case, above-mentioned reset check will call usb_reset_device() on the stale device data structure. The kernel will send pointless LPM control messages to the no longer connected device address and can even cause several 5 second khubd stalls on some (buggy?) host controllers, before finally accepting the device's fate amongst a flurry of error messages. This patch makes the choice of reset dependent on the port status that has just been read from the hub in addition to the existence of an in-kernel data structure for the device, and only proceeds with the more extensive reset if both are valid.

commit 776164c1 upstream. debugfs_remove_recursive() is wrong, 1. it wrongly assumes that !list_empty(d_subdirs) means that this dir should be removed. This is not that bad by itself, but: 2. if d_subdirs does not becomes empty after __debugfs_remove() it gives up and silently fails, it doesn't even try to remove other entries. However ->d_subdirs can be non-empty because it still has the already deleted !debugfs_positive() entries. 3. simple_release_fs() is called even if __debugfs_remove() fails. Suppose we have dir1/ dir2/ file2 file1 and someone opens dir1/dir2/file2. Now, debugfs_remove_recursive(dir1/dir2) succeeds, and dir1/dir2 goes away. But debugfs_remove_recursive(dir1) silently fails and doesn't remove this directory. Because it tries to delete (the already deleted) dir1/dir2/file2 again and then fails due to "Avoid infinite loop" logic. Test-case: #!/bin/sh cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing echo 'p:probe/sigprocmask sigprocmask' >> kprobe_events sleep 1000 < events/probe/sigprocmask/id & echo -n >| kprobe_events [ -d events/probe ] && echo "ERR!! failed to rm probe" And after that it is not possible to create another probe entry. With this patch debugfs_remove_recursive() skips !debugfs_positive() files although this is not strictly needed. The most important change is that it does not try to make ->d_subdirs empty, it simply scans the whole list(s) recursively and removes as much as possible.

commit 9c5da09d upstream. An rmdir pushes css's ref count to zero. However, if the associated directory is open at the time, the dentry ref count is non-zero. If the fd for this directory is then passed into perf_event_open, it does a css_get(). This bounces the ref count back up from zero. This is a problem by itself. But what makes it turn into a crash is the fact that we end up doing an extra dput, since we perform a dput when css_put sees the ref count go down to zero. css_tryget() does not fall into that trap. So, we use that instead. Reproduction test-case for the bug: #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <linux/unistd.h> #include <linux/perf_event.h> #include <string.h> #include <errno.h> #include <stdio.h> #define PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP (1U << 2) int perf_event_open(struct perf_event_attr *hw_event_uptr, pid_t pid, int cpu, int group_fd, unsigned long flags) { return syscall(__NR_perf_event_open,hw_event_uptr, pid, cpu, group_fd, flags); } /* * Directly poke at the perf_event bug, since it's proving hard to repro * depending on where in the kernel tree. what moved? */ int main(int argc, char **argv) { int fd; struct perf_event_attr attr; memset(&attr, 0, sizeof(attr)); attr.exclude_kernel = 1; attr.size = sizeof(attr); mkdir("/dev/cgroup/perf_event/blah", 0777); fd = open("/dev/cgroup/perf_event/blah", O_RDONLY); perror("open"); rmdir("/dev/cgroup/perf_event/blah"); sleep(2); perf_event_open(&attr, fd, 0, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP); perror("perf_event_open"); close(fd); return 0; } Signed-off-by:
