commit 92c14bd9 upstream. This is only relevant to implementations with multiple clusters, where clusters have separate clock lines but all CPUs within a cluster share it. Consider a dual cluster platform with 2 cores per cluster. During suspend we start hot unplugging CPUs in order 1 to 3. When CPU2 is removed, policy->kobj would be moved to CPU3 and when CPU3 goes down we wouldn't free policy or its kobj as we want to retain permissions/values/etc. Now on resume, we will get CPU2 before CPU3 and will call __cpufreq_add_dev(). We will recover the old policy and update policy->cpu from 3 to 2 from update_policy_cpu(). But the kobj is still tied to CPU3 and isn't moved to CPU2. We wouldn't create a link for CPU2, but would try that for CPU3 while bringing it online. Which will report errors as CPU3 already has kobj assigned to it. This bug got introduced with commit 42f921a6, which overlooked this scenario. To fix this, lets move kobj to the new policy->cpu while bringing first CPU of a cluster back. Also do a WARN_ON() if kobject_move failed, as we would reach here only for the first CPU of a non-boot cluster. And we can't recover from this situation, if kobject_move() fails. Fixes: 42f921a6 (cpufreq: remove sysfs files for CPUs which failed to come back after resume) Reported-and-tested-by:

commit de12d6f4 upstream. Temperature limit registers are signed. Limits therefore need to be clamped to (-128, 127) degrees C and not to (0, 255) degrees C. Without this fix, writing a limit of 128 degrees C sets the actual limit to -128 degrees C. Signed-off-by:

commit fbb60fe3 upstream. Return IRQ_NONE if it was not our irq. This is necessary for the case when qxl is sharing irq line with a device A in a crash kernel. If qxl is initialized before A and A's irq was raised during this gap, returning IRQ_HANDLED in this case will cause this irq to be raised again after EOI since kernel think it was handled but in fact it was not.

There is further wreckage, but this in particular seemed easy to trigger, so blacklist this. Opt in for known good archs. Signed-off-by:

commit b0ab99e7 upstream. proc_sched_show_task() does: if (nr_switches) do_div(avg_atom, nr_switches); nr_switches is unsigned long and do_div truncates it to 32 bits, which means it can test non-zero on e.g. x86-64 and be truncated to zero for division. Fix the problem by using div64_ul() instead. As a side effect calculations of avg_atom for big nr_switches are now correct. Signed-off-by:

commit 97b8ee84 upstream. ring_buffer_poll_wait() should always put the poll_table to its wait_queue even there is immediate data available. Otherwise, the following epoll and read sequence will eventually hang forever: 1. Put some data to make the trace_pipe ring_buffer read ready first 2. epoll_ctl(efd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, trace_pipe_fd, ee) 3. epoll_wait() 4. read(trace_pipe_fd) till EAGAIN 5. Add some more data to the trace_pipe ring_buffer 6. epoll_wait() -> this epoll_wait() will block forever ~ During the epoll_ctl(efd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD,...) call in step 2, ring_buffer_poll_wait() returns immediately without adding poll_table, which has poll_table->_qproc pointing to ep_poll_callback(), to its wait_queue. ~ During the epoll_wait() call in step 3 and step 6, ring_buffer_poll_wait() cannot add ep_poll_callback() to its wait_queue because the poll_table->_qproc is NULL and it is how epoll works. ~ When there is new data available in step 6, ring_buffer does not know it has to call ep_poll_callback() because it is not in its wait queue. Hence, block forever. Other poll implementation seems to call poll_wait() unconditionally as the very first thing to do. For example, tcp_poll() in tcp.c.

commit 5f8bf2d2 upstream. Running my ftrace tests on PowerPC, it failed the test that checks if function_graph tracer is affected by the stack tracer. It was. Looking into this, I found that the update_function_graph_func() must be called even if the trampoline function is not changed. This is because archs like PowerPC do not support ftrace_ops being passed by assembly and instead uses a helper function (what the trampoline function points to). Since this function is not changed even when multiple ftrace_ops are added to the code, the test that falls out before calling update_function_graph_func() will miss that the update must still be done. Call update_function_graph_function() for all calls to update_ftrace_function() Signed-off-by:

commit 8abfb872 upstream. Currently trace option stacktrace is not applicable for trace_printk with constant string argument, the reason is in __trace_puts/__trace_bputs ftrace_trace_stack is missing. In contrast, when using trace_printk with non constant string argument(will call into __trace_printk/__trace_bprintk), then trace option stacktrace is workable, this inconstant result will confuses users a lot.

commit 4da63c6f upstream. When the initialization of Intel HDMI controller fails due to missing i915 kernel symbols (e.g. HD-audio is built in while i915 is module), the driver discontinues the probe. However, since the probe was done asynchronously, the driver object still remains, thus the relevant PM ops are still called at suspend/resume. This results in the bad access to the incomplete audio card object, eventually leads to Oops or stall at PM. This patch adds the missing checks of chip->init_failed flag at each PM callback in order to fix the problem above. Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79561Signed-off-by:

commit 4320f6b1 upstream. The commit [247bc037: PM / Sleep: Mitigate race between the freezer and request_firmware()] introduced the finer state control, but it also leads to a new bug; for example, a bug report regarding the firmware loading of intel BT device at suspend/resume: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=873790 The root cause seems to be a small window between the process resume and the clear of usermodehelper lock. The request_firmware() function checks the UMH lock and gives up when it's in UMH_DISABLE state. This is for avoiding the invalid f/w loading during suspend/resume phase. The problem is, however, that usermodehelper_enable() is called at the end of thaw_processes(). Thus, a thawed process in between can kick off the f/w loader code path (in this case, via btusb_setup_intel()) even before the call of usermodehelper_enable(). Then usermodehelper_read_trylock() returns an error and request_firmware() spews WARN_ON() in the end. This oneliner patch fixes the issue just by setting to UMH_FREEZING state again before restarting tasks, so that the call of request_firmware() will be blocked until the end of this function instead of returning an error.

commit 3cf521f7 upstream. The l2tp [get|set]sockopt() code has fallen back to the UDP functions for socket option levels != SOL_PPPOL2TP since day one, but that has never actually worked, since the l2tp socket isn't an inet socket. As David Miller points out: "If we wanted this to work, it'd have to look up the tunnel and then use tunnel->sk, but I wonder how useful that would be" Since this can never have worked so nobody could possibly have depended on that functionality, just remove the broken code and return -EINVAL.

commit 263782c1 upstream. As of commit f8567a38 it is now possible to have put_reqs_available() called from irq context. While put_reqs_available() is per cpu, it did not protect itself from interrupts on the same CPU. This lead to aio_complete() corrupting the available io requests count when run under a heavy O_DIRECT workloads as reported by Robert Elliott. Fix this by disabling irq updates around the per cpu batch updates of reqs_available. Many thanks to Robert and folks for testing and tracking this down. Reported-by:

commit aff008ad upstream. Commits 9ec36caf (of/irq: do irq resolution in platform_get_irq) and ad69674e (of/irq: do irq resolution in platform_get_irq_byname) change the semantics of platform_get_irq and platform_get_irq_byname to always rely on devicetree information if devicetree is enabled and if a devicetree node is attached to the device. The functions now return an error if the devicetree data does not include interrupt information, even if the information is available as platform resource data. This causes mfd client drivers to fail if the interrupt number is passed via platform resources. Therefore, if of_irq_get fails, try platform_get_resource as method of last resort. This restores the original functionality for drivers depending on platform resources to get irq information.

commit ad69674e upstream. The commit 9ec36caf "of/irq: do irq resolution in platform_get_irq" from Rob Herring - moves resolving of the interrupt resources in platform_get_irq(). But this solution isn't complete because platform_get_irq_byname() need to be modified the same way. Hence, fix it by adding interrupt resolution code at the platform_get_irq_byname() function too.

commit 78b33216 upstream. When event spec is shared by multiple channels, which has definition for mask_shared_by_type, iio_device_register_eventset fails. For example: static const struct iio_event_spec iio_dummy_events[] = { { .type = IIO_EV_TYPE_THRESH, .dir = IIO_EV_DIR_RISING, .mask_separate = BIT(IIO_EV_INFO_ENABLE), .mask_shared_by_type = BIT(IIO_EV_INFO_VALUE), }, { .type = IIO_EV_TYPE_THRESH, .dir = IIO_EV_DIR_FALLING, .mask_separate = BIT(IIO_EV_INFO_ENABLE),a .mask_shared_by_type = BIT(IIO_EV_INFO_VALUE), } }; If two channels use this event spec, this will result in error.

commit c7fb93ec upstream. The PE/COFF headers currently describe only the initialised-data portions of the image, and result in no space being allocated for the uninitialised-data portions.

commit 4d12bc63 upstream. As reported by Maggie Mae Roxas, the mvneta driver doesn't behave properly in 10 Mbit/s mode. This is due to a misconfiguration of the MVNETA_GMAC_AUTONEG_CONFIG register: bit MVNETA_GMAC_CONFIG_MII_SPEED must be set for a 100 Mbit/s speed, but cleared for a 10 Mbit/s speed, which the driver was not properly doing. This commit adjusts that by setting the MVNETA_GMAC_CONFIG_MII_SPEED bit only in 100 Mbit/s mode, and relying on the fact that all the speed related bits of this register are cleared at the beginning of the mvneta_adjust_link() function. This problem exists since c5aff182 ("net: mvneta: driver for Marvell Armada 370/XP network unit") which is the commit that introduced the mvneta driver in the kernel.

commit 154210cc upstream. The following test case demonstrates the bug: sh# mount -t glusterfs localhost:meta-test /mnt/one sh# mount -t glusterfs localhost:meta-test /mnt/two sh# echo stuff > /mnt/one/file; rm -f /mnt/two/file; echo stuff > /mnt/one/file bash: /mnt/one/file: Stale file handle sh# echo stuff > /mnt/one/file; rm -f /mnt/two/file; sleep 1; echo stuff > /mnt/one/file On the second open() on /mnt/one, FUSE would have used the old nodeid (file handle) trying to re-open it. Gluster is returning -ESTALE. The ESTALE propagates back to namei.c:filename_lookup() where lookup is re-attempted with LOOKUP_REVAL. The right behavior now, would be for FUSE to ignore the entry-timeout and and do the up-call revalidation. Instead FUSE is ignoring LOOKUP_REVAL, succeeding the revalidation (because entry-timeout has not passed), and open() is again retried on the old file handle and finally the ESTALE is going back to the application. Fix: if revalidation is happening with LOOKUP_REVAL, then ignore entry-timeout and always do the up-call. Signed-off-by:

commit fb9a0c44 upstream. Since cd9151e2 (xen/balloon: set a mapping for ballooned out pages), a ballooned out page had its entry in the p2m set to the MFN of one of the scratch pages. This means that the p2m will contain many entries pointing to the same MFN. During a domain save, these many-to-one entries are not identified as such and the scratch page is saved multiple times. On restore the ballooned pages are populated with new frames and the domain may use up its allocation before all pages can be restored. Since the original fix only needed to keep a mapping for the ballooned page it is safe to set ballooned out pages as INVALID_P2M_ENTRY in the p2m (as they were before). Thus preventing them from being saved and re-populated on restore. Signed-off-by:

If a userspace process is using the evtchn device then this mutex may be locked at the point of the stop_machine() call and xen_console_resume() would then deadlock. Resuming the console after stop_machine() returns avoids this deadlock. Signed-off-by:

commit 1f9a7268 upstream. The context check in perf_event_context_sched_out allows non-cloned context to be part of the optimized schedule out switch. This could move non-cloned context into another workload child. Once this child exits, the context is closed and leaves all original (parent) events in closed state. Any other new cloned event will have closed state and not measure anything. And probably causing other odd bugs. Signed-off-by:

commit b292d7a1 upstream. Currently, any NMI is falsely handled by a NMI handler of NMI watchdog if CondChgd bit in MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR is set. For example, we use external NMI to make system panic to get crash dump, but in this case, the external NMI is falsely handled do to the issue. This commit deals with the issue simply by ignoring CondChgd bit. Here is explanation in detail. On x86 NMI watchdog uses performance monitoring feature to periodically signal NMI each time performance counter gets overflowed. intel_pmu_handle_irq() is called as a NMI_LOCAL handler from a NMI handler of NMI watchdog, perf_event_nmi_handler(). It identifies an owner of a given NMI by looking at overflow status bits in MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR. If some of the bits are set, then it handles the given NMI as its own NMI. The problem is that the intel_pmu_handle_irq() doesn't distinguish CondChgd bit from other bits. Unlike the other status bits, CondChgd bit doesn't represent overflow status for performance counters. Thus, CondChgd bit cannot be thought of as a mark indicating a given NMI is NMI watchdog's. As a result, if CondChgd bit is set, any NMI is falsely handled by the NMI handler of NMI watchdog. Also, if type of the falsely handled NMI is either NMI_UNKNOWN, NMI_SERR or NMI_IO_CHECK, the corresponding action is never performed until CondChgd bit is cleared. I noticed this behavior on systems with Ivy Bridge processors: Intel Xeon CPU E5-2630 v2 and Intel Xeon CPU E7-8890 v2. On both systems, CondChgd bit in MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR has already been set in the beginning at boot. Then the CondChgd bit is immediately cleared by next wrmsr to MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL MSR and appears to remain 0. On the other hand, on older processors such as Nehalem, Xeon E7540, CondChgd bit is not set in the beginning at boot. I'm not sure about exact behavior of CondChgd bit, in particular when this bit is set. Although I read Intel System Programmer's Manual to figure out that, the descriptions I found are: In 18.9.1: "The MSR_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS MSR also provides a ¡sticky bit¢ to indicate changes to the state of performancmonitoring hardware" In Table 35-2 IA-32 Architectural MSRs 63 CondChg: status bits of this register has changed. These are different from the bahviour I see on the actual system as I explained above. At least, I think ignoring CondChgd bit should be enough for NMI watchdog perspective. Signed-off-by:

commit 3896c329 upstream. Mauro reported that his AMD X2 using the powernow-k8 cpufreq driver locked up when doing cpu hotplug. Because we called set_cyc2ns_scale() from the time_cpufreq_notifier() unconditionally, it gets called multiple times for each freq change, instead of only the once, when the tsc_khz value actually changes. Because it gets called more than once, we run out of cyc2ns data slots and stall, waiting for a free one, but because we're half way offline, there's no consumers to free slots. By placing the call inside the condition that actually changes tsc_khz we avoid superfluous calls and avoid the problem. Reported-by:

commit d76744a9 upstream. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70191 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77581 It is observed that sometimes Tx packet is downloaded without adding driver's txpd header. This results in firmware parsing garbage data as packet length. Sometimes firmware is unable to read the packet if length comes out as invalid. This stops further traffic and timeout occurs. The root cause is uninitialized fields in tx_info(skb->cb) of packet used to get garbage values. In this case if MWIFIEX_BUF_FLAG_REQUEUED_PKT flag is mistakenly set, txpd header was skipped. This patch makes sure that tx_info is correctly initialized to fix the problem. Reported-by:
