try_to_wake_up() has a problem which may change status from TASK_DEAD to TASK_RUNNING in race condition with SMI or guest environment of virtual machine. As a result, exited task is scheduled() again and panic occurs. Here is the sequence how it occurs: ----------------------------------+----------------------------- | CPU A | CPU B ----------------------------------+----------------------------- TASK A calls exit().... do_exit() exit_mm() down_read(mm->mmap_sem); rwsem_down_failed_common() set TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE set waiter.task <= task A list_add to sem->wait_list : raw_spin_unlock_irq() (I/O interruption occured) __rwsem_do_wake(mmap_sem) list_del(&waiter->list); waiter->task = NULL wake_up_process(task A) try_to_wake_up() (task is still TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) p->on_rq is still 1.) ttwu_do_wakeup() (*A) : (I/O interruption handler finished) if (!waiter.task) schedule() is not called due to waiter.task is NULL. tsk->state = TASK_RUNNING : check_preempt_curr(); : task->state = TASK_DEAD (*B) <--- set TASK_RUNNING (*C) schedule() (exit task is running again) BUG_ON() is called! -------------------------------------------------------- The execution time between (*A) and (*B) is usually very short, because the interruption is disabled, and setting TASK_RUNNING at (*C) must be executed before setting TASK_DEAD. HOWEVER, if SMI is interrupted between (*A) and (*B), (*C) is able to execute AFTER setting TASK_DEAD! Then, exited task is scheduled again, and BUG_ON() is called.... If the system works on guest system of virtual machine, the time between (*A) and (*B) may be also long due to scheduling of hypervisor, and same phenomenon can occur. By this patch, do_exit() waits for releasing task->pi_lock which is used in try_to_wake_up(). It guarantees the task becomes TASK_DEAD after waking up.

With the recent nohz scheduler changes, rq's nohz flag 'NOHZ_TICK_STOPPED' and its associated state doesn't get cleared immediately after the cpu exits idle. This gets cleared as part of the next tick seen on that cpu. For the cpu offline support, we need to clear this state manually. Fix it by registering a cpu notifier, which clears the nohz idle load balance state for this rq explicitly during the CPU_DYING notification. There won't be any nohz updates for that cpu, after the CPU_DYING notification. But lets be extra paranoid and skip updating the nohz state in the select_nohz_load_balancer() if the cpu is not in active state anymore. Reported-by: Srivatsa S.

KOSAKI Motohiro noticed the following race: > CPU0 CPU1 > -------------------------------------------------------- > deactivate_task() > task->state = TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE; > activate_task() > rq->nr_uninterruptible--; > > schedule() > deactivate_task() > rq->nr_uninterruptible++; > Kosaki-San's scenario is possible when CPU0 runs __sched_setscheduler() against CPU1's current @task. __sched_setscheduler() does a dequeue/enqueue in order to move the task to its new queue (position) to reflect the newly provided scheduling parameters. However it should be completely invariant to nr_uninterruptible accounting, sched_setscheduler() doesn't affect readyness to run, merely policy on when to run. So convert the inappropriate activate/deactivate_task usage to enqueue/dequeue_task, which avoids the nr_uninterruptible accounting. Also convert the two other sites: __migrate_task() and normalize_task() that still use activate/deactivate_task. These sites aren't really a problem since __migrate_task() will only be called on non-running task (and therefore are immume to the described problem) and normalize_task() isn't ever used on regular systems. Also remove the comments from activate/deactivate_task since they're misleading at best.

If pages passed to the eCryptfs extent-based crypto functions are not mapped and the module parameter ecryptfs_verbosity=1 was specified at loading time, a NULL pointer dereference will occur. Note that this wouldn't happen on a production system, as you wouldn't pass ecryptfs_verbosity=1 on a production system. It leaks private information to the system logs and is for debugging only. The debugging info printed in these messages is no longer very useful and rather than doing a kmap() in these debugging paths, it will be better to simply remove the debugging paths completely. https://launchpad.net/bugs/913651Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Reported-by: Daniel DeFreez Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org>

Most filesystems call inode_change_ok() very early in ->setattr(), but eCryptfs didn't call it at all. It allowed the lower filesystem to make the call in its ->setattr() function. Then, eCryptfs would copy the appropriate inode attributes from the lower inode to the eCryptfs inode. This patch changes that and actually calls inode_change_ok() on the eCryptfs inode, fairly early in ecryptfs_setattr(). Ideally, the call would happen earlier in ecryptfs_setattr(), but there are some possible inode initialization steps that must happen first. Since the call was already being made on the lower inode, the change in functionality should be minimal, except for the case of a file extending truncate call. In that case, inode_newsize_ok() was never being called on the eCryptfs inode. Rather than inode_newsize_ok() catching maximum file size errors early on, eCryptfs would encrypt zeroed pages and write them to the lower filesystem until the lower filesystem's write path caught the error in generic_write_checks(). This patch introduces a new function, called ecryptfs_inode_newsize_ok(), which checks if the new lower file size is within the appropriate limits when the truncate operation will be growing the lower file. In summary this change prevents eCryptfs truncate operations (and the resulting page encryptions), which would exceed the lower filesystem limits or FSIZE rlimits, from ever starting.

ecryptfs_write() handles the truncation of eCryptfs inodes. It grabs a page, zeroes out the appropriate portions, and then encrypts the page before writing it to the lower filesystem. It was unkillable and due to the lack of sparse file support could result in tying up a large portion of system resources, while encrypting pages of zeros, with no way for the truncate operation to be stopped from userspace. This patch adds the ability for ecryptfs_write() to detect a pending fatal signal and return as gracefully as possible. The intent is to leave the lower file in a useable state, while still allowing a user to break out of the encryption loop. If a pending fatal signal is detected, the eCryptfs inode size is updated to reflect the modified inode size and then -EINTR is returned.

ecryptfs_write() can enter an infinite loop when truncating a file to a size larger than 4G. This only happens on architectures where size_t is represented by 32 bits. This was caused by a size_t overflow due to it incorrectly being used to store the result of a calculation which uses potentially large values of type loff_t.

A malicious count value specified when writing to /dev/ecryptfs may result in a a very large kernel memory allocation.

Both changes in dc97b340 cause serious regressions in the nouveau driver. move_notify() was originally able to presume that bo->mem is the old node, and new_mem is the new node. The above commit moves the call to move_notify() to after move() has been done, which means that now, sometimes, new_mem isn't the new node at all, bo->mem is, and new_mem points at a stale, possibly-just-been-killed-by-move node. This is clearly not a good situation. This patch reverts this change, and replaces it with a cleanup in the move() failure path instead. The second issue is that the call to move_notify() from cleanup_memtype_use() causes the TTM ghost objects to get passed into the driver. This is clearly bad as the driver knows nothing about these "fake" TTM BOs, and ends up accessing uninitialised memory. I worked around this in nouveau's move_notify() hook by ensuring the BO destructor was nouveau's. I don't particularly like this solution, and would rather TTM never pass the driver these objects. However, I don't clearly understand the reason why we're calling move_notify() here anyway and am happy to work around the problem in nouveau instead of breaking the behaviour expected by other drivers.
