In commit 96e0bf4b (tcp: Discard segments that ack data not yet sent) John Dykstra enforced a check against ack sequences. In commit 354e4aa3 (tcp: RFC 5961 5.2 Blind Data Injection Attack Mitigation) I added more safety tests. But we missed fact that these tests are not performed if ACK bit is not set. RFC 793 3.9 mandates TCP should drop a frame without ACK flag set. " fifth check the ACK field, if the ACK bit is off drop the segment and return" Not doing so permits an attacker to only guess an acceptable sequence number, evading stronger checks. Many thanks to Zhiyun Qian for bringing this issue to our attention.

The cpts driver tries to obtain the input clock frequency by calling the clock's internal 'recalc' method. Since <plat/clock.h> has been removed, this code can no longer compile. However, the driver never makes use of the frequency value, so this patch fixes the issue by removing the offending code altogether.

batadv_iv_ogm_emit_send_time() attempts to calculates a random integer in the range of 'orig_interval +- BATADV_JITTER' by the below lines. msecs = atomic_read(&bat_priv->orig_interval) - BATADV_JITTER; msecs += (random32() % 2 * BATADV_JITTER); But it actually gets 'orig_interval' or 'orig_interval - BATADV_JITTER' because '%' and '*' have same precedence and associativity is left-to-right. This adds the parentheses at the appropriate position so that it matches original intension.

Using a seqlock for devnet_rename_seq is not a good idea, as device_rename() can sleep. As we hold RTNL, we dont need a protection for writers, and only need a seqcount so that readers can catch a change done by a writer.

The fscache code will currently bleat a "non-unique superblock keys" warning even if the user is mounting without the 'fsc' option. There should be no reason to even initialise the superblock cache cookie unless we're planning on using fscache for something, so ensure that we check for the NFS_OPTION_FSCACHE flag before calling into the fscache code.

Pull filesystem notification updates from Eric Paris: "This pull mostly is about locking changes in the fsnotify system. By switching the group lock from a spin_lock() to a mutex() we can now hold the lock across things like iput(). This fixes a problem involving unmounting a fs and having inodes be busy, first pointed out by FAT, but reproducible with tmpfs. This also restores signal driven I/O for inotify, which has been broken since about 2.6.32." Ugh. I *hate* the timing of this. It was rebased after the merge window opened, and then left to sit with the pull request coming the day before the merge window closes. That's just crap. But apparently the patches themselves have been around for over a year, just gathering dust, so now it's suddenly critical. Fixed up semantic conflict in fs/notify/fdinfo.c as per Stephen Rothwell's fixes from -next. * 'for-next' of git://git.infradead.org/users/eparis/notify: inotify: automatically restart syscalls inotify: dont skip removal of watch descriptor if creation of ignored event failed fanotify: dont merge permission events fsnotify: make fasync generic for both inotify and fanotify fsnotify: change locking order fsnotify: dont put marks on temporary list when clearing marks by group fsnotify: introduce locked versions of fsnotify_add_mark() and fsnotify_remove_mark() fsnotify: pass group to fsnotify_destroy_mark() fsnotify: use a mutex instead of a spinlock to protect a groups mark list fanotify: add an extra flag to mark_remove_from_mask that indicates wheather a mark should be destroyed fsnotify: take groups mark_lock before mark lock fsnotify: use reference counting for groups fsnotify: introduce fsnotify_get_group() inotify, fanotify: replace fsnotify_put_group() with fsnotify_destroy_group()

Robin Holt authored
We found a user code which was raising a divide-by-zero trap. That trap would lead to XPC connections between system-partitions being torn down due to the die_chain notifier callouts it received. This also revealed a different issue where multiple callers into xpc_die_deactivate() would all attempt to do the disconnect in parallel which would sometimes lock up but often overwhelm the console on very large machines as each would print at least one line of output at the end of the deactivate. I reviewed all the users of the die_chain notifier and changed the code to ignore the notifier callouts for reasons which will not actually lead to a system to continue on to call die().

Lockdep found an inconsistent lock state when rcu is processing delayed work in softirq. Currently, kernel is using spin_lock/spin_unlock to protect proc_inum_ida, but proc_free_inum is called by rcu in softirq context. Use spin_lock_bh/spin_unlock_bh fix following lockdep warning. ================================= [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] 3.7.0 #36 Not tainted --------------------------------- inconsistent {SOFTIRQ-ON-W} -> {IN-SOFTIRQ-W} usage. swapper/1/0 [HC0[0]:SC1[1]:HE1:SE0] takes: (proc_inum_lock){+.?...}, at: proc_free_inum+0x1c/0x50 {SOFTIRQ-ON-W} state was registered at: __lock_acquire+0x8ae/0xca0 lock_acquire+0x199/0x200 _raw_spin_lock+0x41/0x50 proc_alloc_inum+0x4c/0xd0 alloc_mnt_ns+0x49/0xc0 create_mnt_ns+0x25/0x70 mnt_init+0x161/0x1c7 vfs_caches_init+0x107/0x11a start_kernel+0x348/0x38c x86_64_start_reservations+0x131/0x136 x86_64_start_kernel+0x103/0x112 irq event stamp: 2993422 hardirqs last enabled at (2993422): _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x55/0x80 hardirqs last disabled at (2993421): _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x29/0x70 softirqs last enabled at (2993394): _local_bh_enable+0x13/0x20 softirqs last disabled at (2993395): call_softirq+0x1c/0x30 other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 ---- lock(proc_inum_lock); <Interrupt> lock(proc_inum_lock); *** DEADLOCK *** no locks held by swapper/1/0. stack backtrace: Pid: 0, comm: swapper/1 Not tainted 3.7.0 #36 Call Trace: <IRQ> [<ffffffff810a40f1>] ? vprintk_emit+0x471/0x510 print_usage_bug+0x2a5/0x2c0 mark_lock+0x33b/0x5e0 __lock_acquire+0x813/0xca0 lock_acquire+0x199/0x200 _raw_spin_lock+0x41/0x50 proc_free_inum+0x1c/0x50 free_pid_ns+0x1c/0x50 put_pid_ns+0x2e/0x50 put_pid+0x4a/0x60 delayed_put_pid+0x12/0x20 rcu_process_callbacks+0x462/0x790 __do_softirq+0x1b4/0x3b0 call_softirq+0x1c/0x30 do_softirq+0x59/0xd0 irq_exit+0x54/0xd0 smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x95/0xa3 apic_timer_interrupt+0x72/0x80 cpuidle_enter_tk+0x10/0x20 cpuidle_enter_state+0x17/0x50 cpuidle_idle_call+0x287/0x520 cpu_idle+0xba/0x130 start_secondary+0x2b3/0x2bc Signed-off-by: Xiaotian Feng <dannyfeng@tencent.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: "Eric W.

Commit 263a523d ("linux/kernel.h: Fix warning seen with W=1 due to change in DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST") fixes a warning seen with W=1 due to change in DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST. Unfortunately, the C compiler converts divide operations with unsigned divisors to unsigned, even if the dividend is signed and negative (for example, -10 / 5U = 858993457). The C standard says "If one operand has unsigned int type, the other operand is converted to unsigned int", so the compiler is not to blame. As a result, DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(0, 2U) and similar operations now return bad values, since the automatic conversion of expressions such as "0 - 2U/2" to unsigned was not taken into account. Fix by checking for the divisor variable type when deciding which operation to perform. This fixes DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(0, 2U), but still returns bad values for negative dividends divided by unsigned divisors. Mark the latter case as unsupported. One observed effect of this problem is that the s2c_hwmon driver reports a value of 4198403 instead of 0 if the ADC reads 0. Other impact is unpredictable. Problem is seen if the divisor is an unsigned variable or constant and the dividend is less than (divisor/2).

Commit 648bb56d ("cgroup: lock cgroup_mutex in cgroup_init_subsys()") made cgroup_init_subsys() grab cgroup_mutex before invoking ->css_alloc() for the root css. Because memcg registers hotcpu notifier from ->css_alloc() for the root css, this introduced circular locking dependency between cgroup_mutex and cpu hotplug. Fix it by moving hotcpu notifier registration to a subsys initcall. ====================================================== [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ] 3.7.0-rc4-work+ #42 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------- bash/645 is trying to acquire lock: (cgroup_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8110c5b7>] cgroup_lock+0x17/0x20 but task is already holding lock: (cpu_hotplug.lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8109300f>] cpu_hotplug_begin+0x2f/0x60 which lock already depends on the new lock. the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: -> #1 (cpu_hotplug.lock){+.+.+.}: lock_acquire+0x97/0x1e0 mutex_lock_nested+0x61/0x3b0 get_online_cpus+0x3c/0x60 rebuild_sched_domains_locked+0x1b/0x70 cpuset_write_resmask+0x298/0x2c0 cgroup_file_write+0x1ef/0x300 vfs_write+0xa8/0x160 sys_write+0x52/0xa0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b -> #0 (cgroup_mutex){+.+.+.}: __lock_acquire+0x14ce/0x1d20 lock_acquire+0x97/0x1e0 mutex_lock_nested+0x61/0x3b0 cgroup_lock+0x17/0x20 cpuset_handle_hotplug+0x1b/0x560 cpuset_update_active_cpus+0xe/0x10 cpuset_cpu_inactive+0x47/0x50 notifier_call_chain+0x66/0x150 __raw_notifier_call_chain+0xe/0x10 __cpu_notify+0x20/0x40 _cpu_down+0x7e/0x2f0 cpu_down+0x36/0x50 store_online+0x5d/0xe0 dev_attr_store+0x18/0x30 sysfs_write_file+0xe0/0x150 vfs_write+0xa8/0x160 sys_write+0x52/0xa0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b other info that might help us debug this: Possible unsafe locking scenario: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- lock(cpu_hotplug.lock); lock(cgroup_mutex); lock(cpu_hotplug.lock); lock(cgroup_mutex); *** DEADLOCK *** 5 locks held by bash/645: #0: (&buffer->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8123bab8>] sysfs_write_file+0x48/0x150 #1: (s_active#42){.+.+.+}, at: [<ffffffff8123bb38>] sysfs_write_file+0xc8/0x150 #2: (x86_cpu_hotplug_driver_mutex){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffff81079277>] cpu_hotplug_driver_lock+0x1 +7/0x20 #3: (cpu_add_remove_lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81093157>] cpu_maps_update_begin+0x17/0x20 #4: (cpu_hotplug.lock){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8109300f>] cpu_hotplug_begin+0x2f/0x60 stack backtrace: Pid: 645, comm: bash Not tainted 3.7.0-rc4-work+ #42 Call Trace: print_circular_bug+0x28e/0x29f __lock_acquire+0x14ce/0x1d20 lock_acquire+0x97/0x1e0 mutex_lock_nested+0x61/0x3b0 cgroup_lock+0x17/0x20 cpuset_handle_hotplug+0x1b/0x560 cpuset_update_active_cpus+0xe/0x10 cpuset_cpu_inactive+0x47/0x50 notifier_call_chain+0x66/0x150 __raw_notifier_call_chain+0xe/0x10 __cpu_notify+0x20/0x40 _cpu_down+0x7e/0x2f0 cpu_down+0x36/0x50 store_online+0x5d/0xe0 dev_attr_store+0x18/0x30 sysfs_write_file+0xe0/0x150 vfs_write+0xa8/0x160 sys_write+0x52/0xa0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Revert commit 2830a6d2. We already perform the ida_simple_remove() in rtc_device_release(), which is an appropriate place. Commit 2830a6d2 ("rtc: recycle id when unloading a rtc driver") caused the kernel to emit ida_remove called for id=0 which is not allocated. warnings when rtc_device_release() tries to release an alread-released ID. Let's restore things to their previous state and then work out why Vincent's kernel wasn't calling rtc_device_release() - presumably a bug in a specific sub-driver.
