commit e6d4947b upstream. If the CPU supports a hardware random number generator, use it in xfer_secondary_pool(), where it will significantly improve things and where we can afford it. Also, remove the use of the arch-specific rng in add_timer_randomness(), since the call is significantly slower than get_cycles(), and we're much better off using it in xfer_secondary_pool() anyway.

commit a2080a67 upstream. Add a new interface, add_device_randomness() for adding data to the random pool that is likely to differ between two devices (or possibly even per boot). This would be things like MAC addresses or serial numbers, or the read-out of the RTC. This does *not* add any actual entropy to the pool, but it initializes the pool to different values for devices that might otherwise be identical and have very little entropy available to them (particularly common in the embedded world). [ Modified by tytso to mix in a timestamp, since there may be some variability caused by the time needed to detect/configure the hardware in question. ] Signed-off-by:

commit 902c098a upstream. The real-time Linux folks don't like add_interrupt_randomness() taking a spinlock since it is called in the low-level interrupt routine. This also allows us to reduce the overhead in the fast path, for the random driver, which is the interrupt collection path. Signed-off-by:

commit 775f4b29 upstream. We've been moving away from add_interrupt_randomness() for various reasons: it's too expensive to do on every interrupt, and flooding the CPU with interrupts could theoretically cause bogus floods of entropy from a somewhat externally controllable source. This solves both problems by limiting the actual randomness addition to just once a second or after 64 interrupts, whicever comes first. During that time, the interrupt cycle data is buffered up in a per-cpu pool. Also, we make sure the the nonblocking pool used by urandom is initialized before we start feeding the normal input pool. This assures that /dev/urandom is returning unpredictable data as soon as possible. (Based on an original patch by Linus, but significantly modified by tytso.) Tested-by:

commit 2dac8e54 upstream. When we are initializing using arch_get_random_long() we only need to loop enough times to touch all the bytes in the buffer; using poolwords for that does twice the number of operations necessary on a 64-bit machine, since in the random number generator code "word" means 32 bits.

commit 3e88bdff upstream. If there is an architecture-specific random number generator (such as RDRAND for Intel architectures), use it to initialize /dev/random's entropy stores. Even in the worst case, if RDRAND is something like AES(NSA_KEY, counter++), it won't hurt, and it will definitely help against any other adversaries. Signed-off-by:

commit cf833d0b upstream. We still don't use rdrand in /dev/random, which just seems stupid. We accept the *cycle*counter* as a random input, but we don't accept rdrand? That's just broken. Sure, people can do things in user space (write to /dev/random, use rdrand in addition to /dev/random themselves etc etc), but that *still* seems to be a particularly stupid reason for saying "we shouldn't bother to try to do better in /dev/random". And even if somebody really doesn't trust rdrand as a source of random bytes, it seems singularly stupid to trust the cycle counter *more*. So I'd suggest the attached patch. I'm not going to even bother arguing that we should add more bits to the entropy estimate, because that's not the point - I don't care if /dev/random fills up slowly or not, I think it's just stupid to not use the bits we can get from rdrand and mix them into the strong randomness pool.

commit c6636005 upstream. Booting a 3.2, 3.3, or 3.4-rc4 kernel on an Atari using the `nfeth' ethernet device triggers a WARN_ONCE() in generic irq handling code on the first irq for that device: WARNING: at kernel/irq/handle.c:146 handle_irq_event_percpu+0x134/0x142() irq 3 handler nfeth_interrupt+0x0/0x194 enabled interrupts Modules linked in: Call Trace: [<000299b2>] warn_slowpath_common+0x48/0x6a [<000299c0>] warn_slowpath_common+0x56/0x6a [<00029a4c>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x2a/0x32 [<0005b34c>] handle_irq_event_percpu+0x134/0x142 [<0005b34c>] handle_irq_event_percpu+0x134/0x142 [<0000a584>] nfeth_interrupt+0x0/0x194 [<001ba0a8>] schedule_preempt_disabled+0x0/0xc [<0005b37a>] handle_irq_event+0x20/0x2c [<0005add4>] generic_handle_irq+0x2c/0x3a [<00002ab6>] do_IRQ+0x20/0x32 [<0000289e>] auto_irqhandler_fixup+0x4/0x6 [<00003144>] cpu_idle+0x22/0x2e [<001b8a78>] printk+0x0/0x18 [<0024d112>] start_kernel+0x37a/0x386 [<0003021d>] __do_proc_dointvec+0xb1/0x366 [<0003021d>] __do_proc_dointvec+0xb1/0x366 [<0024c31e>] _sinittext+0x31e/0x9c0 After invoking the irq's handler the kernel sees !irqs_disabled() and concludes that the handler erroneously enabled interrupts. However, debugging shows that !irqs_disabled() is true even before the handler is invoked, which indicates a problem in the platform code rather than the specific driver. The warning does not occur in 3.1 or older kernels. It turns out that the ALLOWINT definition for Atari is incorrect. The Atari definition of ALLOWINT is ~0x400, the stated purpose of that is to avoid taking HSYNC interrupts. irqs_disabled() returns true if the 3-bit ipl & 4 is non-zero. The nfeth interrupt runs at ipl 3 (it's autovector 3), but 3 & 4 is zero so irqs_disabled() is false, and the warning above is generated. When interrupts are explicitly disabled, ipl is set to 7. When they are enabled, ipl is masked with ALLOWINT. On Atari this will result in ipl = 3, which blocks interrupts at ipl 3 and below. So how come nfeth interrupts at ipl 3 are received at all? That's because ipl is reset to 2 by Atari-specific code in default_idle(), again with the stated purpose of blocking HSYNC interrupts. This discrepancy means that ipl 3 can remain blocked for longer than intended. Both default_idle() and falcon_hblhandler() identify HSYNC with ipl 2, and the "Atari ST/.../F030 Hardware Register Listing" agrees, but ALLOWINT is defined as if HSYNC was ipl 3. [As an experiment I modified default_idle() to reset ipl to 3, and as expected that resulted in all nfeth interrupts being blocked.] The fix is simple: define ALLOWINT as ~0x500 instead. This makes arch_local_irq_enable() consistent with default_idle(), and prevents the !irqs_disabled() problems for ipl 3 interrupts. Tested on Atari running in an Aranym VM. Signed-off-by:

partial of commit 8e8b41f9 upstream. As part of commit 463454b5 ("cfg80211: fix interface combinations check"), this extra check was introduced: if ((all_iftypes & used_iftypes) != used_iftypes) goto cont; However, most wireless NIC drivers did not advertise ADHOC in wiphy.iface_combinations[i].limits[] and hence we'll get -EBUSY when we bring up a ADHOC wlan with commands similar to: # iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc && ifconfig wlan0 up In commit 8e8b41f9 ("cfg80211: enforce lack of interface combinations"), the change below fixes the issue: if (total == 1) return 0; But it also introduces other dependencies for stable. For example, a full cherry pick of 8e8b41f9 would introduce additional regressions unless we also start cherry picking driver specific fixes like the following: 9b4760e3 ath5k: add possible wiphy interface combinations 1ae2fc25 mac80211_hwsim: advertise interface combinations 20c8e8dc ath9k: add possible wiphy interface combinations And the purpose of the 'if (total == 1)' is to cover the specific use case (IBSS, adhoc) that was mentioned above. So we just pick the specific part out from 8e8b41f9 here. Doing so gives stable kernels a way to fix the change introduced by 463454b5, without having to make cherry picks specific to various NIC drivers. Signed-off-by:

commit b9e0d95c upstream. When the frontend and the backend reside on the same domain, even if we add pages to the m2p_override, these pages will never be returned by mfn_to_pfn because the check "get_phys_to_machine(pfn) != mfn" will always fail, so the pfn of the frontend will be returned instead (resulting in a deadlock because the frontend pages are already locked).

A simplified call graph looks like this: pygrub QEMU ----------------------------------------------- do_read_cache_page io_submit | | lock_page ext3_direct_IO | bio_add_page | lock_page Internally the xen-blkback uses m2p_add_override to swizzle (temporarily) a 'struct page' to have a different MFN (so that it can point to another guest). It also can easily find out whether another pfn corresponding to the mfn exists in the m2p, and can set the FOREIGN bit in the p2m, making sure that mfn_to_pfn returns the pfn of the backend. This allows the backend to perform direct_IO on these pages, but as a side effect prevents the frontend from using get_user_pages_fast on them while they are being shared with the backend.

commit 3f9a5aab upstream. add_disk() takes gendisk reference on request queue. If driver failed during initialization and never called add_disk() then that extra reference is not taken. That reference is put in put_disk(). floppy driver allocates the disk, allocates queue, sets disk->queue and then relizes that floppy controller is not present. It tries to tear down everything and tries to put a reference down in put_disk() which was never taken. In such error cases cleanup disk->queue before calling put_disk() so that we never try to put down a reference which was never taken in first place. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit 8323f26c upstream Stefan reported a crash on a kernel before a3e5d109 ("sched: Don't call task_group() too many times in set_task_rq()"), he found the reason to be that the multiple task_group() invocations in set_task_rq() returned different values. Looking at all that I found a lack of serialization and plain wrong comments. The below tries to fix it using an extra pointer which is updated under the appropriate scheduler locks. Its not pretty, but I can't really see another way given how all the cgroup stuff works. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit 141168c3 and commit 3f806e50 upstream. Several fields in struct cpuinfo_x86 were not defined for the !SMP case, likely to save space. However, those fields still have some meaning for UP, and keeping them allows some #ifdef removal from other files. The additional size of the UP kernel from this change is not significant enough to worry about keeping up the distinction: text data bss dec hex filename 4737168 506459 972040 6215667 5ed7f3 vmlinux.o.before 4737444 506459 972040 6215943 5ed907 vmlinux.o.after for a difference of 276 bytes for an example UP config. If someone wants those 276 bytes back badly then it should be implemented in a cleaner way. Signed-off-by:

commit 03179fe9 upstream. The function ext4_calc_metadata_amount() has side effects, although it's not obvious from its function name. So if we fail to claim space, regardless of whether we retry to claim the space again, or return an error, we need to undo these side effects. Otherwise we can end up incorrectly calculating the number of metadata blocks needed for the operation, which was responsible for an xfstests failure for test #271 when using an ext2 file system with delalloc enabled.

Around 400ms after resuming, a "card inserted" interrupt is generated, at which point it starts reporting presence. Work around this hardware oddity by setting the SDHCI_QUIRK_BROKEN_CARD_DETECTION flag. Thanks to Chris Ball for helping with diagnosis. Signed-off-by:

commit bf6932f4 upstream. From Al Viro: BTW, speaking of struct file treatment related to sockets - there's this piece of code in iscsi: /* * The SCTP stack needs struct socket->file. */ if ((np->np_network_transport == ISCSI_SCTP_TCP) || (np->np_network_transport == ISCSI_SCTP_UDP)) { if (!new_sock->file) { new_sock->file = kzalloc( sizeof(struct file), GFP_KERNEL); For one thing, as far as I can see it'not true - sctp does *not* depend on socket->file being non-NULL; it does, in one place, check socket->file->f_flags for O_NONBLOCK, but there it treats NULL socket->file as "flag not set". Which is the case here anyway - the fake struct file created in __iscsi_target_login_thread() (and in iscsi_target_setup_login_socket(), with the same excuse) do *not* get that flag set. Moreover, it's a bloody serious violation of a bunch of asserts in VFS; all struct file instances should come from filp_cachep, via get_empty_filp() (or alloc_file(), which is a wrapper for it). FWIW, I'm very tempted to do this and be done with the entire mess: Signed-off-by:

commit b17caa17 upstream. commit 198439e4 [SCSI] libsas: do not set res = 0 in sas_ex_discover_dev() commit 19252de6 [SCSI] libsas: fix wide port hotplug issues The above commits seem to have confused the return value of sas_ex_discover_dev which is non-zero on failure and sas_ex_join_wide_port which just indicates short circuiting discovery on already established ports. The result is random discovery failures depending on configuration. Calls to sas_ex_join_wide_port are the source of the trouble as its return value is errantly assigned to 'res'. Convert it to bool and stop returning its result up the stack. Tested-by:

commit 26f2f199 upstream. Continue running revalidation until no more broadcast devices are discovered. Fixes cases where re-discovery completes too early in a domain with multiple expanders with pending re-discovery events. Servicing BCNs can get backed up behind error recovery. Signed-off-by:

commit 57fc2e33 upstream. Rapid ata hotplug on a libsas controller results in cases where libsas is waiting indefinitely on eh to perform an ata probe. A race exists between scsi_schedule_eh() and scsi_restart_operations() in the case when scsi_restart_operations() issues i/o to other devices in the sas domain. When this happens the host state transitions from SHOST_RECOVERY (set by scsi_schedule_eh) back to SHOST_RUNNING and ->host_busy is non-zero so we put the eh thread to sleep even though ->host_eh_scheduled is active. Before putting the error handler to sleep we need to check if the host_state needs to return to SHOST_RECOVERY for another trip through eh. Since i/o that is released by scsi_restart_operations has been blocked for at least one eh cycle, this implementation allows those i/o's to run before another eh cycle starts to discourage hung task timeouts.
