commit 2bec1f4a upstream. The function dm_get_md finds a device mapper device with a given dev_t, increases the reference count and returns the pointer. dm_get_md calls dm_find_md, dm_find_md takes _minor_lock, finds the device, tests that the device doesn't have DMF_DELETING or DMF_FREEING flag, drops _minor_lock and returns pointer to the device. dm_get_md then calls dm_get. dm_get calls BUG if the device has the DMF_FREEING flag, otherwise it increments the reference count. There is a possible race condition - after dm_find_md exits and before dm_get is called, there are no locks held, so the device may disappear or DMF_FREEING flag may be set, which results in BUG. To fix this bug, we need to call dm_get while we hold _minor_lock. This patch renames dm_find_md to dm_get_md and changes it so that it calls dm_get while holding the lock.

commit 37527b86 upstream. I created a dm-raid1 device backed by a device that supports DISCARD and another device that does NOT support DISCARD with the following dm configuration: # echo '0 2048 mirror core 1 512 2 /dev/sda 0 /dev/sdb 0' | dmsetup create moo # lsblk -D NAME DISC-ALN DISC-GRAN DISC-MAX DISC-ZERO sda 0 4K 1G 0 `-moo (dm-0) 0 4K 1G 0 sdb 0 0B 0B 0 `-moo (dm-0) 0 4K 1G 0 Notice that the mirror device /dev/mapper/moo advertises DISCARD support even though one of the mirror halves doesn't. If I issue a DISCARD request (via fstrim, mount -o discard, or ioctl BLKDISCARD) through the mirror, kmirrord gets stuck in an infinite loop in do_region() when it tries to issue a DISCARD request to sdb. The problem is that when we call do_region() against sdb, num_sectors is set to zero because q->limits.max_discard_sectors is zero. Therefore, "remaining" never decreases and the loop never terminates. To fix this: before entering the loop, check for the combination of REQ_DISCARD and no discard and return -EOPNOTSUPP to avoid hanging up the mirror device. This bug was found by the unfortunate coincidence of pvmove and a discard operation in the RHEL 6.5 kernel; upstream is also affected. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

commit f2ed51ac upstream. It may be possible that a device claims discard support but it rejects discards with -EOPNOTSUPP. It happens when using loopback on ext2/ext3 filesystem driven by the ext4 driver. It may also happen if the underlying devices are moved from one disk on another. If discard error happens, we reject the bio with -EOPNOTSUPP, but we do not degrade the array. This patch fixes failed test shell/lvconvert-repair-transient.sh in the lvm2 testsuite if the testsuite is extracted on an ext2 or ext3 filesystem and it is being driven by the ext4 driver.

commit 42b8ce6f upstream. `do_cmd_ioctl()` in "comedi_fops.c" handles the `COMEDI_CMD` ioctl. This returns `-EAGAIN` if it has copied a modified `struct comedi_cmd` back to user-space. (This occurs when the low-level Comedi driver's `do_cmdtest()` handler returns non-zero to indicate a problem with the contents of the `struct comedi_cmd`, or when the `struct comedi_cmd` has the `CMDF_BOGUS` flag set.) `compat_cmd()` in "comedi_compat32.c" handles the 32-bit compatible version of the `COMEDI_CMD` ioctl. Currently, it never copies a 32-bit compatible version of `struct comedi_cmd` back to user-space, which is at odds with the way the regular `COMEDI_CMD` ioctl is handled. To fix it, change `compat_cmd()` to copy a 32-bit compatible version of the `struct comedi_cmd` back to user-space when the main ioctl handler returns `-EAGAIN`.

commit 957ed60b upstream. Each inode of nilfs2 stores a root node of a b-tree, and it turned out to have a memory overrun issue: Each b-tree node of nilfs2 stores a set of key-value pairs and the number of them (in "bn_nchildren" member of nilfs_btree_node struct), as well as a few other "bn_*" members. Since the value of "bn_nchildren" is used for operations on the key-values within the b-tree node, it can cause memory access overrun if a large number is incorrectly set to "bn_nchildren". For instance, nilfs_btree_node_lookup() function determines the range of binary search with it, and too large "bn_nchildren" leads nilfs_btree_node_get_key() in that function to overrun. As for intermediate b-tree nodes, this is prevented by a sanity check performed when each node is read from a drive, however, no sanity check has been done for root nodes stored in inodes. This patch fixes the issue by adding missing sanity check against b-tree root nodes so that it's called when on-memory inodes are read from ifile, inode metadata file.

commit f0bf0bd0 upstream. This problem was taken care of three times already in * b0de59b5 (TTY: do not update atime/mtime on read/write), * 37b7f3c7 (TTY: fix atime/mtime regression), and * b0b88565 (tty: fix up atime/mtime mess, take three) But it still misses one point. As John Paul correctly points out, we do not care about setting date. If somebody ever changes wall time backwards (by mistake for example), tty timestamps are never updated until the original wall time passes. So check the absolute difference of times and if it large than "8 seconds or so", always update the time. That means we will update immediatelly when changing time. Ergo, CAP_SYS_TIME can foul the check, but it was always that way. Thanks John for serving me this so nicely debugged.

commit 79fbf4a5 upstream. Fix overflow bug in tty_wait_until_sent on 64-bit machines, where an infinite timeout (0) would be passed to the underlying tty-driver's wait_until_sent-operation as a negative timeout (-1), causing it to return immediately. This manifests itself for example as tcdrain() returning immediately, drivers not honouring the drain flags when setting terminal attributes, or even dropped data on close as a requested infinite closing-wait timeout would be ignored. The first symptom was reported by Asier LLANO who noted that tcdrain() returned prematurely when using the ftdi_sio usb-serial driver. Fix this by passing 0 rather than MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT (LONG_MAX) to the underlying tty driver. Note that the serial-core wait_until_sent-implementation is not affected by this bug due to a lucky chance (comparison to an unsigned maximum timeout), and neither is the cyclades one that had an explicit check for negative timeouts, but all other tty drivers appear to be affected.

commit 9c1c98a3 upstream. The current minstrel_ht rate control behavior is somewhat optimistic in trying to find optimum TX rate. While this is usually fine for normal Data frames, there are cases where a more conservative set of retry parameters would be beneficial to make the connection more robust. EAPOL frames are critical to the authentication and especially the EAPOL-Key message 4/4 (the last message in the 4-way handshake) is important to get through to the AP. If that message is lost, the only recovery mechanism in many cases is to reassociate with the AP and start from scratch. This can often be avoided by trying to send the frame with more conservative rate and/or with more link layer retries. In most cases, minstrel_ht is currently using the initial EAPOL-Key frames for probing higher rates and this results in only five link layer transmission attempts (one at high(ish) MCS and four at MCS0). While this works with most APs, it looks like there are some deployed APs that may have issues with the EAPOL frames using HT MCS immediately after association. Similarly, there may be issues in cases where the signal strength or radio environment is not good enough to be able to get frames through even at couple of MCS 0 tries. The best approach for this would likely to be to reduce the TX rate for the last rate (3rd rate parameter in the set) to a low basic rate (say, 6 Mbps on 5 GHz and 2 or 5.5 Mbps on 2.4 GHz), but doing that cleanly requires some more effort. For now, we can start with a simple one-liner that forces the minimum rate to be used for EAPOL frames similarly how the TX rate is selected for the IEEE 802.11 Management frames. This does result in a small extra latency added to the cases where the AP would be able to receive the higher rate, but taken into account how small number of EAPOL frames are used, this is likely to be insignificant. A future optimization in the minstrel_ht design can also allow this patch to be reverted to get back to the more optimized initial TX rate. It should also be noted that many drivers that do not use minstrel as the rate control algorithm are already doing similar workarounds by forcing the lowest TX rate to be used for EAPOL frames.

commit 45ba2154 upstream. When a control transfer has a short data stage, the xHCI controller generates two transfer events: a COMP_SHORT_TX event that specifies the untransferred amount, and a COMP_SUCCESS event. But when the data stage is not short, only the COMP_SUCCESS event occurs. Therefore, xhci-hcd must set urb->actual_length to urb->transfer_buffer_length while processing the COMP_SUCCESS event, unless urb->actual_length was set already by a previous COMP_SHORT_TX event. The driver checks this by seeing whether urb->actual_length == 0, but this alone is the wrong test, as it is entirely possible for a short transfer to have an urb->actual_length = 0. This patch changes the xhci driver to rely on a new td->urb_length_set flag, which is set to true when a COMP_SHORT_TX event is received and the URB length updated at that stage. This fixes a bug which affected the HSO plugin, which relies on URBs with urb->actual_length == 0 to halt re-submitting the RX URB in the control endpoint.

commit b3cffac0 upstream. Currently the guest exit trace event saves the VCPU pointer to the structure, and the guest PC is retrieved by dereferencing it when the event is printed rather than directly from the trace record. This isn't safe as the printing may occur long afterwards, after the PC has changed and potentially after the VCPU has been freed. Usually this results in the same (wrong) PC being printed for multiple trace events. It also isn't portable as userland has no way to access the VCPU data structure when interpreting the trace record itself. Lets save the actual PC in the structure so that the correct value is accessible later.

commit 4ff6f8e6 upstream. This has been broken for a long time: it broke first in 2.6.35, then was almost fixed in 2.6.36 but this one-liner slipped through the cracks. The bug shows up as an infinite loop in Windows 7 (and newer) boot on 32-bit hosts without EPT. Windows uses CMPXCHG8B to write to page tables, which causes a page fault if running without EPT; the emulator is then called from kvm_mmu_page_fault. The loop then happens if the higher 4 bytes are not 0; the common case for this is that the NX bit (bit 63) is 1.
