commit 3625c2c2 upstream. For PAE kernels "unsigned long" is not suitable to hold page protection flags, since _PAGE_NX doesn't fit there. This is the reason for quite a few W+X pages getting reported as insecure during boot (observed namely for the entire initrd range).

commit 57adec86 upstream. Calling apply_to_page_range with an empty range results in a BUG_ON from the core code. This can be triggered by trying to load the st_drv module with CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX enabled: kernel BUG at mm/memory.c:1874! Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: CPU: 3 PID: 1764 Comm: insmod Not tainted 4.5.0-rc1+ #2 Hardware name: ARM Juno development board (r0) (DT) task: ffffffc9763b8000 ti: ffffffc975af8000 task.ti: ffffffc975af8000 PC is at apply_to_page_range+0x2cc/0x2d0 LR is at change_memory_common+0x80/0x108 This patch fixes the issue by making change_memory_common (called by the set_memory_* functions) a NOP when numpages == 0, therefore avoiding the erroneous call to apply_to_page_range and bringing us into line with x86 and s390.

commit 67dfa175 upstream. GCC6 (and Linaro's 2015.12 snapshot of GCC5) has a new default that uses adrp/ldr or adrp/add to address literal pools.

commit 462b3f16 upstream. Some architectures like PowerPC can handle the maximum struct size in an ioctl only up to 13 bits, and struct snd_compr_codec_caps used by SNDRV_COMPRESS_GET_CODEC_CAPS ioctl overflows this limit. This problem was revealed recently by a powerpc change, as it's now treated as a fatal build error. This patch is a stop-gap for that: for architectures with less than 14 bit ioctl struct size, get rid of the handling of the relevant ioctl. We should provide an alternative equivalent ioctl code later, but for now just paper over it. Luckily, the compress API hasn't been used on such architectures, so the impact must be effectively zero.

commit f436b2ac upstream. The Performance Monitors extension is an optional feature of the AArch64 architecture, therefore, in order to access Performance Monitors registers safely, the kernel should detect the architected PMU unit presence through the ID_AA64DFR0_EL1 register PMUVer field before accessing them. This patch implements a guard by reading the ID_AA64DFR0_EL1 register PMUVer field to detect the architected PMU presence and prevent accessing PMU system registers if the Performance Monitors extension is not implemented in the core.

commit d8f00cd6 upstream. In function usb_reset_and_verify_device, the old BOS descriptor may still be used before allocating a new one.

commit 19454462 upstream. In current acm driver, the bulk-in callback function ignores the URBs unlinked in usb core. This causes unexpected data loss in some cases. For example, runtime suspend entry will unlinked all urbs and set urb->status to -ENOENT even those urbs might have data not processed yet. Hence, data loss occurs. This patch lets bulk-in callback function handle unlinked urbs to avoid data loss. Signed-off-by:

commit b186b4dc upstream. The quirk to get "acpi_backlight=vendor" behavior by default on the Dell Inspiron 5737 was added before we started doing "acpi_backlight=native" by default on Win8 ready machines. Since we now avoid using acpi-video as backlight driver on these machines by default (using the native driver instead) we no longer need this quirk. Moreover the vendor driver does not work after a suspend/resume where as the native driver does. This reverts commit 08a56226 (ACPI / video: Add Dell Inspiron 5737 to the blacklist).

commit e23b257c upstream. setup_ioapic_dest() calls irqchip->irq_set_affinity() completely unprotected. That's wrong in several aspects: - it opens a race window where irq_set_affinity() can be interrupted and the irq chip left in unconsistent state. - it triggers a lockdep splat when we fix the vector race for 4.3+ because vector lock is taken with interrupts enabled. The proper calling convention is irq descriptor lock held and interrupts disabled. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit 760a7364 upstream. In the old DABR register, the BT (Breakpoint Translation) bit is bit number 61. In the new DAWRX register, the WT (Watchpoint Translation) bit is bit number 59. So to move the DABR-BT bit into the position of the DAWRX-WT bit, it has to be shifted by two, not only by one. This fixes hardware watchpoints in gdb of older guests that only use the H_SET_DABR/X interface instead of the new H_SET_MODE interface. Signed-off-by:

commit d590faf9 upstream. The SPI tx and rx buffers are both supposed to be scan_bytes amount of bytes large and a common allocation is used to allocate both buffers. This puts the beginning of the tx buffer scan_bytes bytes after the rx buffer. The initialization of the tx buffer pointer is done adding scan_bytes to the beginning of the rx buffer, but since the rx buffer is of type __be16 this will actually add two times as much and the tx buffer ends up pointing after the allocated buffer. Fix this by using scan_count, which is scan_bytes / 2, instead of scan_bytes when initializing the tx buffer pointer. Fixes: aacff892 ("staging:iio:adis: Preallocate transfer message") Signed-off-by:

commit 98dd166e upstream. With commit 633d6f17 (x86/xen: prepare p2m list for memory hotplug) the P2M may be sized to accomdate a much larger amount of memory than the domain currently has. When saving a domain, the toolstack must scan all the P2M looking for populated pages. This results in a performance regression due to the unnecessary scanning. Instead of reporting (via shared_info) the maximum possible size of the P2M, hint at the last PFN which might be populated. This hint is increased as new leaves are added to the P2M (in the expectation that they will be used for populated entries). Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit a8a572a6 ] Remove the dst_entries_init/destroy calls for xfrm4 and xfrm6 dst_ops templates; their dst_entries counters will never be used. Move the xfrm dst_ops initialization from the common xfrm/xfrm_policy.c to xfrm4/xfrm4_policy.c and xfrm6/xfrm6_policy.c, and call dst_entries_init and dst_entries_destroy for each net namespace. The ipv4 and ipv6 xfrms each create dst_ops template, and perform dst_entries_init on the templates. The template values are copied to each net namespace's xfrm.xfrm*_dst_ops. The problem there is the dst_ops pcpuc_entries field is a percpu counter and cannot be used correctly by simply copying it to another object. The result of this is a very subtle bug; changes to the dst entries counter from one net namespace may sometimes get applied to a different net namespace dst entries counter. This is because of how the percpu counter works; it has a main count field as well as a pointer to the percpu variables. Each net namespace maintains its own main count variable, but all point to one set of percpu variables. When any net namespace happens to change one of the percpu variables to outside its small batch range, its count is moved to the net namespace's main count variable. So with multiple net namespaces operating concurrently, the dst_ops entries counter can stray from the actual value that it should be; if counts are consistently moved from one net namespace to another (which my testing showed is likely), then one net namespace winds up with a negative dst_ops count while another winds up with a continually increasing count, eventually reaching its gc_thresh limit, which causes all new traffic on the net namespace to fail with -ENOBUFS.

[ Upstream commit 635682a1 ] A case can occur when sctp_accept() is called by the user during a heartbeat timeout event after the 4-way handshake. Since sctp_assoc_migrate() changes both assoc->base.sk and assoc->ep, the bh_sock_lock in sctp_generate_heartbeat_event() will be taken with the listening socket but released with the new association socket. The result is a deadlock on any future attempts to take the listening socket lock.

This usually happens by removing the references to this object and then waiting until the rcu grace period is over and no one (allowedly) accesses it anymore. But the _now functions ignore this completely. They free the object directly even when a different context still tries to access it. This has to be avoided and thus these functions must be removed and all functions have to use batadv_neigh_ifinfo_free_ref.

[ Upstream commit 44e8e7e9 ] The batadv_nc_node_free_ref function uses call_rcu to delay the free of the batadv_nc_node object until no (already started) rcu_read_lock is enabled anymore. This makes sure that no context is still trying to access the object which should be removed. But batadv_nc_node also contains a reference to orig_node which must be removed. The reference drop of orig_node was done in the call_rcu function batadv_nc_node_free_rcu but should actually be done in the batadv_nc_node_release function to avoid nested call_rcus. This is important because rcu_barrier (e.g. batadv_softif_free or batadv_exit) will not detect the inner call_rcu as relevant for its execution. Otherwise this barrier will most likely be inserted in the queue before the callback of the first call_rcu was executed. The caller of rcu_barrier will therefore continue to run before the inner call_rcu callback finished.
