commit 265b81d2 upstream. Avoids sending a signal to alarm timers created with sigev_notify set to SIGEV_NONE by checking for that special case in the timeout callback. The regular posix timers avoid sending signals to SIGEV_NONE timers by not scheduling any callbacks for them in the first place. Although it would be possible to do something similar for alarm timers, it's simpler to handle this as a special case in the timeout. Prior to this patch, the alarm timer would ignore the sigev_notify value and try to deliver signals to the process anyway. Even worse, the sanity check for the value of sigev_signo is skipped when SIGEV_NONE was specified, so the signal number could be bogus. If sigev_signo was an unitialized value (as it often would be if SIGEV_NONE is used), then it's hard to predict which signal will be sent.

commit e86fea76 upstream. Returns the time remaining for an alarm timer, rather than the time at which it is scheduled to expire. If the timer has already expired or it is not currently scheduled, the it_value's members are set to zero. This new behavior matches that of the other posix-timers and the POSIX specifications. This is a change in user-visible behavior, and may break existing applications. Hopefully, few users rely on the old incorrect behavior.

commit d26a7730 upstream. In spite of what the GCC manual says, the -mfast-indirect-calls has never been supported in the 64-bit parisc compiler. Indirect calls have always been done using function descriptors irrespective of the -mfast-indirect-calls option. Recently, it was noticed that a function descriptor was always requested when the -mfast-indirect-calls option was specified. This caused problems when the option was used in application code and doesn't make any sense because the whole point of the option is to avoid using a function descriptor for indirect calls. Fixing this broke 64-bit kernel builds. I will fix GCC but for now we need the attached change. This results in the same kernel code as before.

commit 7bd88377 upstream. return the value instead, and have path_init() do the assignment. Broken by "vfs: Fix absolute RCU path walk failures due to uninitialized seq number", which was Cc-stable with 2.6.38+ as destination. This one should go where it went. To avoid dummy value returned in case when root is already set (it would do no harm, actually, since the only caller that doesn't ignore the return value is guaranteed to have nd->root *not* set, but it's more obvious that way), lift the check into callers. And do the same to set_root(), to keep them in sync. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit 78e05b14 upstream. Similar to the previous commit which described why we need to add a barrier to arch_spin_is_locked(), we have a similar problem with spin_unlock_wait(). We need a barrier on entry to ensure any spinlock we have previously taken is visibly locked prior to the load of lock->slock. It's also not clear if spin_unlock_wait() is intended to have ACQUIRE semantics. For now be conservative and add a barrier on exit to give it ACQUIRE semantics.

commit 51d7d520 upstream. The kernel defines the function spin_is_locked(), which can be used to check if a spinlock is currently locked. Using spin_is_locked() on a lock you don't hold is obviously racy. That is, even though you may observe that the lock is unlocked, it may become locked at any time. There is (at least) one exception to that, which is if two locks are used as a pair, and the holder of each checks the status of the other before doing any update. Assuming *A and *B are two locks, and *COUNTER is a shared non-atomic value: The first CPU does: spin_lock(*A) if spin_is_locked(*B) # nothing else smp_mb() LOAD r = *COUNTER r++ STORE *COUNTER = r spin_unlock(*A) And the second CPU does: spin_lock(*B) if spin_is_locked(*A) # nothing else smp_mb() LOAD r = *COUNTER r++ STORE *COUNTER = r spin_unlock(*B) Although this is a strange locking construct, it should work. It seems to be understood, but not documented, that spin_is_locked() is not a memory barrier, so in the examples above and below the caller inserts its own memory barrier before acting on the result of spin_is_locked(). For now we assume spin_is_locked() is implemented as below, and we break it out in our examples: bool spin_is_locked(*LOCK) { LOAD l = *LOCK return l.locked } Our intuition is that there should be no problem even if the two code sequences run simultaneously such as: CPU 0 CPU 1 ================================================== spin_lock(*A) spin_lock(*B) LOAD b = *B LOAD a = *A if b.locked # true if a.locked # true # nothing # nothing spin_unlock(*A) spin_unlock(*B) If one CPU gets the lock before the other then it will do the update and the other CPU will back off: CPU 0 CPU 1 ================================================== spin_lock(*A) LOAD b = *B spin_lock(*B) if b.locked # false LOAD a = *A else if a.locked # true smp_mb() # nothing LOAD r1 = *COUNTER spin_unlock(*B) r1++ STORE *COUNTER = r1 spin_unlock(*A) However in reality spin_lock() itself is not indivisible. On powerpc we implement it as a load-and-reserve and store-conditional. Ignoring the retry logic for the lost reservation case, it boils down to: spin_lock(*LOCK) { LOAD l = *LOCK l.locked = true STORE *LOCK = l ACQUIRE_BARRIER } The ACQUIRE_BARRIER is required to give spin_lock() ACQUIRE semantics as defined in memory-barriers.txt: This acts as a one-way permeable barrier. It guarantees that all memory operations after the ACQUIRE operation will appear to happen after the ACQUIRE operation with respect to the other components of the system. On modern powerpc systems we use lwsync for ACQUIRE_BARRIER. lwsync is also know as "lightweight sync", or "sync 1". As described in Power ISA v2.07 section B.2.1.1, in this scenario the lwsync is not the barrier itself. It instead causes the LOAD of *LOCK to act as the barrier, preventing any loads or stores in the locked region from occurring prior to the load of *LOCK. Whether this behaviour is in accordance with the definition of ACQUIRE semantics in memory-barriers.txt is open to discussion, we may switch to a different barrier in future. What this means in practice is that the following can occur: CPU 0 CPU 1 ================================================== LOAD a = *A LOAD b = *B a.locked = true b.locked = true LOAD b = *B LOAD a = *A STORE *A = a STORE *B = b if b.locked # false if a.locked # false else else smp_mb() smp_mb() LOAD r1 = *COUNTER LOAD r2 = *COUNTER r1++ r2++ STORE *COUNTER = r1 STORE *COUNTER = r2 # Lost update spin_unlock(*A) spin_unlock(*B) That is, the load of *B can occur prior to the store that makes *A visibly locked. And similarly for CPU 1. The result is both CPUs hold their lock and believe the other lock is unlocked. The easiest fix for this is to add a full memory barrier to the start of spin_is_locked(), so adding to our previous definition would give us: bool spin_is_locked(*LOCK) { smp_mb() LOAD l = *LOCK return l.locked } The new barrier orders the store to the lock we are locking vs the load of the other lock: CPU 0 CPU 1 ================================================== LOAD a = *A LOAD b = *B a.locked = true b.locked = true STORE *A = a STORE *B = b smp_mb() smp_mb() LOAD b = *B LOAD a = *A if b.locked # true if a.locked # true # nothing # nothing spin_unlock(*A) spin_unlock(*B) Although the above example is theoretical, there is code similar to this example in sem_lock() in ipc/sem.c. This commit in addition to the next commit appears to be a fix for crashes we are seeing in that code where we believe this race happens in practice.

commit 85101af1 upstream. ABIv2 kernels are failing to backtrace through the kernel. An example: 39.30% readseek2_proce [kernel.kallsyms] [k] find_get_entry | --- find_get_entry __GI___libc_read The problem is in valid_next_sp() where we check that the new stack pointer is at least STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD below the previous one. ABIv1 has a minimum stack frame size of 112 bytes consisting of 48 bytes and 64 bytes of parameter save area. ABIv2 changes that to 32 bytes with no paramter save area. STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD is in theory the minimum stack frame size, but we over 240 uses of it, some of which assume that it includes space for the parameter area. We need to work through all our stack defines and rationalise them but let's fix perf now by creating STACK_FRAME_MIN_SIZE and using in valid_next_sp(). This fixes the issue: 30.64% readseek2_proce [kernel.kallsyms] [k] find_get_entry | --- find_get_entry pagecache_get_page generic_file_read_iter new_sync_read vfs_read sys_read syscall_exit __GI___libc_read Reported-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

commit d21ccfd0 upstream. In v3.15 the driver stopped to accept network packets after successful authentification, which could be worked around by passing the nohwcrypt=1 module parameter. This was not reproducible by everyone, and showed random behaviour in some tests.

commit 03bd4e1f upstream. The following bug can be triggered by hot adding and removing a large number of xen domain0's vcpus repeatedly: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000004 IP: [..] find_busiest_group PGD 5a9d5067 PUD 13067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#3] SMP [...] Call Trace: load_balance ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore idle_balance __schedule schedule schedule_timeout ? lock_timer_base schedule_timeout_uninterruptible msleep lock_device_hotplug_sysfs online_store dev_attr_store sysfs_write_file vfs_write SyS_write system_call_fastpath Last level cache shared mask is built during CPU up and the build_sched_domain() routine takes advantage of it to setup the sched domain CPU topology. However, llc_shared_mask is not released during CPU disable, which leads to an invalid sched domainCPU topology. This patch fix it by releasing the llc_shared_mask correctly during CPU disable. Yasuaki also reported that this can happen on real hardware: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/22/1018 His case is here: == Here is an example on my system. My system has 4 sockets and each socket has 15 cores and HT is enabled. In this case, each core of sockes is numbered as follows: | CPU# Socket#0 | 0-14 , 60-74 Socket#1 | 15-29, 75-89 Socket#2 | 30-44, 90-104 Socket#3 | 45-59, 105-119 Then llc_shared_mask of CPU#30 has 0x3fff80000001fffc0000000. It means that last level cache of Socket#2 is shared with CPU#30-44 and 90-104. When hot-removing socket#2 and #3, each core of sockets is numbered as follows: | CPU# Socket#0 | 0-14 , 60-74 Socket#1 | 15-29, 75-89 But llc_shared_mask is not cleared. So llc_shared_mask of CPU#30 remains having 0x3fff80000001fffc0000000. After that, when hot-adding socket#2 and #3, each core of sockets is numbered as follows: | CPU# Socket#0 | 0-14 , 60-74 Socket#1 | 15-29, 75-89 Socket#2 | 30-59 Socket#3 | 90-119 Then llc_shared_mask of CPU#30 becomes 0x3fff8000fffffffc0000000. It means that last level cache of Socket#2 is shared with CPU#30-59 and 90-104. So the mask has the wrong value.

commit dbab31aa upstream. This fixes the same bug as b43790ee ("mm: softdirty: don't forget to save file map softdiry bit on unmap") and 9aed8614 ("mm/memory.c: don't forget to set softdirty on file mapped fault") where the return value of pte_*mksoft_dirty was being ignored. To be sure that no other pte/pmd "mk" function return values were being ignored, I annotated the functions in arch/x86/include/asm/pgtable.h with __must_check and rebuilt. The userspace effect of this bug is that the softdirty mark might be lost if a file mapped pte get zapped.

commit 56d7acc7 upstream. This bug leads to reproducible silent data loss, despite the use of msync(), sync() and a clean unmount of the file system. It is easily reproducible with the following script: ----------------[BEGIN SCRIPT]-------------------- mkfs.nilfs2 -f /dev/sdb mount /dev/sdb /mnt dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=30 of=/mnt/testfile umount /mnt mount /dev/sdb /mnt CHECKSUM_BEFORE="$(md5sum /mnt/testfile)" /root/mmaptest/mmaptest /mnt/testfile 30 10 5 sync CHECKSUM_AFTER="$(md5sum /mnt/testfile)" umount /mnt mount /dev/sdb /mnt CHECKSUM_AFTER_REMOUNT="$(md5sum /mnt/testfile)" umount /mnt echo "BEFORE MMAP:\t$CHECKSUM_BEFORE" echo "AFTER MMAP:\t$CHECKSUM_AFTER" echo "AFTER REMOUNT:\t$CHECKSUM_AFTER_REMOUNT" ----------------[END SCRIPT]-------------------- The mmaptest tool looks something like this (very simplified, with error checking removed): ----------------[BEGIN mmaptest]-------------------- data = mmap(NULL, file_size - file_offset, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, file_offset); for (i = 0; i < write_count; ++i) { memcpy(data + i * 4096, buf, sizeof(buf)); msync(data, file_size - file_offset, MS_SYNC)) } ----------------[END mmaptest]-------------------- The output of the script looks something like this: BEFORE MMAP: 281ed1d5ae50e8419f9b978aab16de83 /mnt/testfile AFTER MMAP: 6604a1c31f10780331a6850371b3a313 /mnt/testfile AFTER REMOUNT: 281ed1d5ae50e8419f9b978aab16de83 /mnt/testfile So it is clear, that the changes done using mmap() do not survive a remount. This can be reproduced a 100% of the time. The problem was introduced in commit 136e8770 ("nilfs2: fix issue of nilfs_set_page_dirty() for page at EOF boundary"). If the page was read with mpage_readpage() or mpage_readpages() for example, then it has no buffers attached to it. In that case page_has_buffers(page) in nilfs_set_page_dirty() will be false. Therefore nilfs_set_file_dirty() is never called and the pages are never collected and never written to disk. This patch fixes the problem by also calling nilfs_set_file_dirty() if the page has no buffers attached to it.

commit acbbe6fb upstream. The C operator <= defines a perfectly fine total ordering on the set of values representable in a long. However, unlike its namesake in the integers, it is not translation invariant, meaning that we do not have "b <= c" iff "a+b <= a+c" for all a,b,c. This means that it is always wrong to try to boil down the relationship between two longs to a question about the sign of their difference, because the resulting relation [a LEQ b iff a-b <= 0] is neither anti-symmetric or transitive. The former is due to -LONG_MIN==LONG_MIN (take any two a,b with a-b = LONG_MIN; then a LEQ b and b LEQ a, but a != b). The latter can either be seen observing that x LEQ x+1 for all x, implying x LEQ x+1 LEQ x+2 ... LEQ x-1 LEQ x; or more directly with the simple example a=LONG_MIN, b=0, c=1, for which a-b < 0, b-c < 0, but a-c > 0. Note that it makes absolutely no difference that a transmogrying bijection has been applied before the comparison is done. In fact, had the obfuscation not been done, one could probably not observe the bug (assuming all values being compared always lie in one half of the address space, the mathematical value of a-b is always representable in a long). As it stands, one can easily obtain three file descriptors exhibiting the non-transitivity of kcmp(). Side note 1: I can't see that ensuring the MSB of the multiplier is set serves any purpose other than obfuscating the obfuscating code.

commit c680e41b upstream. When calling epoll_ctl with operation EPOLL_CTL_DEL, structure epds is not initialized but ep_take_care_of_epollwakeup reads its event field. When this unintialized field has EPOLLWAKEUP bit set, a capability check is done for CAP_BLOCK_SUSPEND in ep_take_care_of_epollwakeup. This produces unexpected messages in the audit log, such as (on a system running SELinux): type=AVC msg=audit(1408212798.866:410): avc: denied { block_suspend } for pid=7754 comm="dbus-daemon" capability=36 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t tcontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t tclass=capability2 permissive=1 type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1408212798.866:410): arch=c000003e syscall=233 success=yes exit=0 a0=3 a1=2 a2=9 a3=7fffd4d66ec0 items=0 ppid=1 pid=7754 auid=1000 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=(none) ses=3 comm="dbus-daemon" exe="/usr/bin/dbus-daemon" subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t key=(null) ("arch=c000003e syscall=233 a1=2" means "epoll_ctl(op=EPOLL_CTL_DEL)") Remove use of epds in epoll_ctl when op == EPOLL_CTL_DEL.

commit 000a7d66 upstream. We shouldn't set text_len in the code path that detects printk recursion because text_len corresponds to the length of the string inside textbuf. A few lines down from the line text_len = strlen(recursion_msg); is the line text_len += vscnprintf(text + text_len, ...); So if printk detects recursion, it sets text_len to 29 (the length of recursion_msg) and logs an error. Then the message supplied by the caller of printk is stored inside textbuf but offset by 29 bytes. This means that the output of the recursive call to printk will contain 29 bytes of garbage in front of it. This defect is caused by commit 458df9fd ("printk: remove separate printk_sched buffers and use printk buf instead") which turned the line text_len = vscnprintf(text, ...); into text_len += vscnprintf(text + text_len, ...); To fix this, this patch avoids setting text_len when logging the printk recursion error. This patch also marks unlikely() the branch leading up to this code.

commit 84261912 upstream. When updating what an ftrace_ops traces, if it is registered (that is, actively tracing), and that ftrace_ops uses the shared global_ops local_hash, then we need to update all tracers that are active and also share the global_ops' ftrace_hash_ops.

commit 5f151b24 upstream. The latest rewrite of ftrace removed the separate ftrace_ops of the function tracer and the function graph tracer and had them share the same ftrace_ops. This simplified the accounting by removing the multiple layers of functions called, where the global_ops func would call a special list that would iterate over the other ops that were registered within it (like function and function graph), which itself was registered to the ftrace ops list of all functions currently active. If that sounds confusing, the code that implemented it was also confusing and its removal is a good thing. The problem with this change was that it assumed that the function and function graph tracer can never be used at the same time. This is mostly true, but there is an exception. That is when the function profiler uses the function graph tracer to profile. The function profiler can be activated the same time as the function tracer, and this breaks the assumption and the result is that ftrace will crash (it detects the error and shuts itself down, it does not cause a kernel oops). To solve this issue, a previous change allowed the hash tables for the functions traced by a ftrace_ops to be a pointer and let multiple ftrace_ops share the same hash. This allows the function and function_graph tracer to have separate ftrace_ops, but still share the hash, which is what is done. Now the function and function graph tracers have separate ftrace_ops again, and the function tracer can be run while the function_profile is active.

commit 33b7f99c upstream. Currently the top level debug file system function tracer shares its ftrace_ops with the function graph tracer. This was thought to be fine because the tracers are not used together, as one can only enable function or function_graph tracer in the current_tracer file. But that assumption proved to be incorrect. The function profiler can use the function graph tracer when function tracing is enabled. Since all function graph users uses the function tracing ftrace_ops this causes a conflict and when a user enables both function profiling as well as the function tracer it will crash ftrace and disable it. The quick solution so far is to move them as separate ftrace_ops like it was earlier. The problem though is to synchronize the functions that are traced because both function and function_graph tracer are limited by the selections made in the set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace files. To handle this, a new structure is made called ftrace_ops_hash. This structure will now hold the filter_hash and notrace_hash, and the ftrace_ops will point to this structure. That will allow two ftrace_ops to share the same hashes. Since most ftrace_ops do not share the hashes, and to keep allocation simple, the ftrace_ops structure will include both a pointer to the ftrace_ops_hash called func_hash, as well as the structure itself, called local_hash. When the ops are registered, the func_hash pointer will be initialized to point to the local_hash within the ftrace_ops structure. Some of the ftrace internal ftrace_ops will be initialized statically. This will allow for the function and function_graph tracer to have separate ops but still share the same hash tables that determine what functions they trace.

commit 0b93a4c8 upstream. After commit 2ec2a8be (usb: dwc3: gadget: always enable IOC on bulk/interrupt transfers) we created a situation where it was possible to hang a bulk/interrupt endpoint if we had more than one pending request in our queue and they were both started with a single Start Transfer command. The problems triggers because we had not enabled Transfer In Progress event for those endpoints and we were not able to process early giveback of requests completed without LST bit set. Fix the problem by finally enabling Xfer In Progress event for all endpoint types, except control.

commit 22fdcf02 upstream. This commit reverts the addition of lockdep checking to raw_seqcount_begin for the following reasons: 1) It violates the naming convention that raw_* functions should not do lockdep checks (a convention that is also followed by the other raw_*_seqcount_begin functions). 2) raw_seqcount_begin does not spin, so it can only be part of an ABBA deadlock in very special circumstances (for instance if a lock is held across the entire raw_seqcount_begin()+read_seqcount_retry() loop while also being taken inside the write_seqcount protected area). 3) It is causing false positives with some existing callers, and there is no non-lockdep alternative for those callers to use. None of the three existing callers (__d_lookup_rcu, netdev_get_name, and the NFS state code) appear to use the function in a manner that is ABBA deadlock prone.

commit f0d27965 upstream. When pcpu_alloc_pages() fails midway, pcpu_free_pages() is invoked to free what has already been allocated. The invocation is across the whole requested range and pcpu_free_pages() will try to free all non-NULL pages; unfortunately, this is incorrect as pcpu_get_pages_and_bitmap(), unlike what its comment suggests, doesn't clear the pages array and thus the array may have entries from the previous invocations making the partial failure path free incorrect pages.
