gdbserver inserting a breakpoint ends up calling copy_user_page() for a code page. The generic version of which (non-aliasing config) didn't set the PG_arch_1 bit hence update_mmu_cache() didn't sync dcache/icache for corresponding dynamic loader code page - causing garbade to be executed. So now aliasing versions of copy_user_highpage()/clear_page() are made default. There is no significant overhead since all of special alias handling code is compiled out for non-aliasing build Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

Benjamin LaHaise authored
The recent changes overhauling fs/aio.c introduced a bug that results in the kioctx not being freed when outstanding kiocbs are cancelled at exit_aio() time. Specifically, a kiocb that is cancelled has its completion events discarded by batch_complete_aio(), which then fails to wake up the process stuck in free_ioctx(). Fix this by modifying the wait_event() condition in free_ioctx() appropriately. This patch was tested with the cancel operation in the thread based code posted yesterday.

Cliff Wickman authored
A panic can be caused by simply cat'ing /proc/<pid>/smaps while an application has a VM_PFNMAP range. It happened in-house when a benchmarker was trying to decipher the memory layout of his program. /proc/<pid>/smaps and similar walks through a user page table should not be looking at VM_PFNMAP areas. Certain tests in walk_page_range() (specifically split_huge_page_pmd()) assume that all the mapped PFN's are backed with page structures. And this is not usually true for VM_PFNMAP areas. This can result in panics on kernel page faults when attempting to address those page structures. There are a half dozen callers of walk_page_range() that walk through a task's entire page table (as N. Horiguchi pointed out). So rather than change all of them, this patch changes just walk_page_range() to ignore VM_PFNMAP areas. The logic of hugetlb_vma() is moved back into walk_page_range(), as we want to test any vma in the range. VM_PFNMAP areas are used by: - graphics memory manager gpu/drm/drm_gem.c - global reference unit sgi-gru/grufile.c - sgi special memory char/mspec.c - and probably several out-of-tree modules [akpm@linux-foundation.org: remove now-unused hugetlb_vma() stub] Signed-off-by: Cliff Wickman <cpw@sgi.com> Reviewed-by: Naoya Horiguchi <n-horiguchi@ah.jp.nec.com> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@intel.com> Cc: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.cz> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@gmail.com> Cc: "Kirill A.

Last time we found there is lock/unlock bug in ocfs2_file_aio_write, and then we did a thorough search for all lock resources in ocfs2_inode_info, including rw, inode and open lockres and found this bug. My kernel version is 3.0.13, and it is also in the lastest version 3.9. In ocfs2_fiemap, once ocfs2_get_clusters_nocache failed, it should goto out_unlock instead of out, because we need release buffer head, up read alloc sem and unlock inode.

Commit 902c098a ("random: use lockless techniques in the interrupt path") turned IRQ path from being spinlock protected into lockless cmpxchg-retry update. That commit removed r->lock serialization between crediting entropy bits from IRQ context and accounting when extracting entropy on userspace read path, but didn't turn the r->entropy_count reads/updates in account() to use cmpxchg as well. It has been observed, that under certain circumstances this leads to read() on /dev/urandom to return 0 (EOF), as r->entropy_count gets corrupted and becomes negative, which in turn results in propagating 0 all the way from account() to the actual read() call. Convert the accounting code to be the proper lockless counterpart of what has been partially done by 902c098a.

Commit ec8f02da ("random: prime last_data value per fips requirements") added priming of last_data per fips requirements. Unfortuantely, it did so in a way that can lead to multiple threads all incrementing nbytes, but only one actually doing anything with the extra data, which leads to some fun random corruption and panics. The fix is to simply do everything needed to prime last_data in a single shot, so there's no window for multiple cpus to increment nbytes -- in fact, we won't even increment or decrement nbytes anymore, we'll just extract the needed EXTRACT_SIZE one time per pool and then carry on with the normal routine. All these changes have been tested across multiple hosts and architectures where panics were previously encoutered. The code changes are are strictly limited to areas only touched when when booted in fips mode. This change should also go into 3.8-stable, to make the myriads of fips users on 3.8.x happy.

nilfs2: fix issue of nilfs_set_page_dirty for page at EOF boundary DESCRIPTION: There are use-cases when NILFS2 file system (formatted with block size lesser than 4 KB) can be remounted in RO mode because of encountering of "broken bmap" issue. The issue was reported by Anthony Doggett <Anthony2486@interfaces.org.uk>: "The machine I've been trialling nilfs on is running Debian Testing, Linux version 3.2.0-4-686-pae (debian-kernel@lists.debian.org) (gcc version 4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-14) ) #1 SMP Debian 3.2.35-2), but I've also reproduced it (identically) with Debian Unstable amd64 and Debian Experimental (using the 3.8-trunk kernel). The problematic partitions were formatted with "mkfs.nilfs2 -b 1024 -B 8192"." SYMPTOMS: (1) System log contains error messages likewise: [63102.496756] nilfs_direct_assign: invalid pointer: 0 [63102.496786] NILFS error (device dm-17): nilfs_bmap_assign: broken bmap (inode number=28) [63102.496798] [63102.524403] Remounting filesystem read-only (2) The NILFS2 file system is remounted in RO mode. REPRODUSING PATH: (1) Create volume group with name "unencrypted" by means of vgcreate utility. (2) Run script (prepared by Anthony Doggett <Anthony2486@interfaces.org.uk>): ----------------[BEGIN SCRIPT]-------------------- VG=unencrypted lvcreate --size 2G --name ntest $VG mkfs.nilfs2 -b 1024 -B 8192 /dev/mapper/$VG-ntest mkdir /var/tmp/n mkdir /var/tmp/n/ntest mount /dev/mapper/$VG-ntest /var/tmp/n/ntest mkdir /var/tmp/n/ntest/thedir cd /var/tmp/n/ntest/thedir sleep 2 date darcs init sleep 2 dmesg|tail -n 5 date darcs whatsnew || true date sleep 2 dmesg|tail -n 5 ----------------[END SCRIPT]-------------------- REPRODUCIBILITY: 100% INVESTIGATION: As it was discovered, the issue takes place during segment construction after executing such sequence of user-space operations: open("_darcs/index", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY, 0666) = 7 fstat(7, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 ftruncate(7, 60) The error message "NILFS error (device dm-17): nilfs_bmap_assign: broken bmap (inode number=28)" takes place because of trying to get block number for third block of the file with logical offset #3072 bytes. As it is possible to see from above output, the file has 60 bytes of the whole size. So, it is enough one block (1 KB in size) allocation for the whole file. Trying to operate with several blocks instead of one takes place because of discovering several dirty buffers for this file in nilfs_segctor_scan_file() method. The root cause of this issue is in nilfs_set_page_dirty function which is called just before writing to an mmapped page. When nilfs_page_mkwrite function handles a page at EOF boundary, it fills hole blocks only inside EOF through __block_page_mkwrite(). The __block_page_mkwrite() function calls set_page_dirty() after filling hole blocks, thus nilfs_set_page_dirty function (= a_ops->set_page_dirty) is called. However, the current implementation of nilfs_set_page_dirty() wrongly marks all buffers dirty even for page at EOF boundary. As a result, buffers outside EOF are inconsistently marked dirty and queued for write even though they are not mapped with nilfs_get_block function. FIX: This modifies nilfs_set_page_dirty() not to mark hole blocks dirty. Thanks to Vyacheslav Dubeyko for his effort on analysis and proposals for this issue.

Page 'new' during MIGRATION can't be flushed with flush_cache_page(). Using flush_cache_page(vma, addr, pfn) is justified only if the page is already placed in process page table, and that is done right after flush_cache_page(). But without it the arch function has no knowledge of process PTE and does nothing. Besides that, flush_cache_page() flushes an application cache page, but the kernel has a different page virtual address and dirtied it. Replace it with flush_dcache_page(new) which is the proper usage. The old page is flushed in try_to_unmap_one() before migration. This bug takes place in Sead3 board with M14Kc MIPS CPU without cache aliasing (but Harvard arch - separate I and D cache) in tight memory environment (128MB) each 1-3days on SOAK test. It fails in cc1 during kernel build (SIGILL, SIGBUS, SIGSEG) if CONFIG_COMPACTION is switched ON.

Fix bug in MSI interrupt handling which causes loss of event notifications. Typical indication of lost MSI interrupts are stalled message and doorbell transfers between RapidIO endpoints. To avoid loss of MSI interrupts all interrupts from the device must be disabled on entering the interrupt handler routine and re-enabled when exiting it. Re-enabling device interrupts will trigger new MSI message(s) if Tsi721 registered new events since entering interrupt handler routine. This patch is applicable to kernel versions starting from v3.2.

Commit 0c59b89c ("mm: memcg: push down PageSwapCache check into uncharge entry functions") added a VM_BUG_ON() on PageSwapCache in the uncharge path after checking that page flag once, assuming that the state is stable in all paths, but this is not the case and the condition triggers in user environments. An uncharge after the last page table reference to the page goes away can race with reclaim adding the page to swap cache. Swap cache pages are usually uncharged when they are freed after swapout, from a path that also handles swap usage accounting and memcg lifetime management. However, since the last page table reference is gone and thus no references to the swap slot left, the swap slot will be freed shortly when reclaim attempts to write the page to disk. The whole swap accounting is not even necessary. So while the race condition for which this VM_BUG_ON was added is real and actually existed all along, there are no negative effects. Remove the VM_BUG_ON again.

A simple frame-buffer describes a raw memory region that may be rendered to, with the assumption that the display hardware has already been set up to scan out from that buffer. This is useful in cases where a bootloader exists and has set up the display hardware, but a Linux driver doesn't yet exist for the display hardware. Examples use-cases include: * The built-in LCD panels on the Samsung ARM chromebook, and Tegra devices, and likely many other ARM or embedded systems. These cannot yet be supported using a full graphics driver, since the panel control should be provided by the CDF (Common Display Framework), which has been stuck in design/review for quite some time. One could support these panels using custom SoC-specific code, but there is a desire to use common infra-structure rather than having each SoC vendor invent their own code, hence the desire to wait for CDF. * Hardware for which a full graphics driver is not yet available, and the path to obtain one upstream isn't yet clear. For example, the Raspberry Pi. * Any hardware in early stages of upstreaming, before a full graphics driver has been tackled. This driver can provide a graphical boot console (even full X support) much earlier in the upstreaming process, thus making new SoC or board support more generally useful earlier.

In ocfs2_file_aio_write(), it does ocfs2_rw_lock() first and then ocfs2_inode_lock(). But if ocfs2_inode_lock() failed, it goes to out_sems without unlocking rw lock. This will cause a bug in ocfs2_lock_res_free() when testing res->l_ex_holders, which is increased in __ocfs2_cluster_lock() and decreased in __ocfs2_cluster_unlock().

Commit 751efd86 ("mmu_notifier_unregister NULL Pointer deref and multiple ->release()") breaks the fix 3ad3d901 ("mm: mmu_notifier: fix freed page still mapped in secondary MMU"). Since hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() is changed now, we can not revert that patch directly, so this patch reverts the commit and simply fix the bug spotted by that patch This bug spotted by commit 751efd86 is: There is a race condition between mmu_notifier_unregister() and __mmu_notifier_release(). Assume two tasks, one calling mmu_notifier_unregister() as a result of a filp_close() ->flush() callout (task A), and the other calling mmu_notifier_release() from an mmput() (task B). A B t1 srcu_read_lock() t2 if (!hlist_unhashed()) t3 srcu_read_unlock() t4 srcu_read_lock() t5 hlist_del_init_rcu() t6 synchronize_srcu() t7 srcu_read_unlock() t8 hlist_del_rcu() <--- NULL pointer deref. This can be fixed by using hlist_del_init_rcu instead of hlist_del_rcu. The another issue spotted in the commit is "multiple ->release() callouts", we needn't care it too much because it is really rare (e.g, can not happen on kvm since mmu-notify is unregistered after exit_mmap()) and the later call of multiple ->release should be fast since all the pages have already been released by the first call. Anyway, this issue should be fixed in a separate patch. -stable suggestions: Any version that has commit 751efd86 need to be backported. I find the oldest version has this commit is 3.0-stable.

Many callers of the wait_event_timeout() and wait_event_interruptible_timeout() expect that the return value will be positive if the specified condition becomes true before the timeout elapses. However, at the moment this isn't guaranteed. If the wake-up handler is delayed enough, the time remaining until timeout will be calculated as 0 - and passed back as a return value - even if the condition became true before the timeout has passed. Fix this by returning at least 1 if the condition becomes true. This semantic is in line with what wait_for_condition_timeout() does; see commit bb10ed09 ("sched: fix wait_for_completion_timeout() spurious failure under heavy load"). Daniel said "We have 3 instances of this bug in drm/i915. One case even where we switch between the interruptible and not interruptible wait_event_timeout variants, foolishly presuming they have the same semantics. I very much like this."

Add RapidIO enumeration/discovery start from user space. User space start allows to defer RapidIO fabric scan until the moment when all participating endpoints are initialized avoiding mandatory synchronized start of all endpoints (which may be challenging in systems with large number of RapidIO endpoints).

Systems that use RapidIO fabric may need to implement their own enumeration and discovery methods which are better suitable for needs of a target application. The following set of patches is intended to simplify process of introduction of new RapidIO fabric enumeration/discovery methods. The first patch offers ability to add new RapidIO enumeration/discovery methods using kernel configuration options. This new configuration option mechanism allows to select statically linked or modular enumeration/discovery method(s) from the list of existing methods or use external module(s). This patch also updates the currently existing enumeration/discovery code to be used as a statically linked or modular method. The corresponding configuration option is named "Basic enumeration/discovery" method. This is the only one configuration option available today but new methods are expected to be introduced after adoption of provided patches. The second patch address a long time complaint of RapidIO subsystem users regarding fabric enumeration/discovery start sequence. Existing implementation offers only a boot-time enumeration/discovery start which requires synchronized boot of all endpoints in RapidIO network. While it works for small closed configurations with limited number of endpoints, using this approach in systems with large number of endpoints is quite challenging. To eliminate requirement for synchronized start the second patch introduces RapidIO enumeration/discovery start from user space. For compatibility with the existing RapidIO subsystem implementation, automatic boot time enumeration/discovery start can be configured in by specifying "rio-scan.scan=1" command line parameter if statically linked basic enumeration method is selected. This patch: Rework to implement RapidIO enumeration/discovery method selection combined with ability to use enumeration/discovery as a kernel module. This patch adds ability to introduce new RapidIO enumeration/discovery methods using kernel configuration options. Configuration option mechanism allows to select statically linked or modular enumeration/discovery method from the list of existing methods or use external modules. If a modular enumeration/discovery is selected each RapidIO mport device can have its own method attached to it. The existing enumeration/discovery code was updated to be used as statically linked or modular method. This configuration option is named "Basic enumeration/discovery" method. Several common routines have been moved from rio-scan.c to make them available to other enumeration methods and reduce number of exported symbols.
