Patch 3759824d ("tcp: PRR uses CRB mode by default and SS mode conditionally") introduced a bug that cwnd may become 0 when both inflight and sndcnt are 0 (cwnd = inflight + sndcnt). This may lead to a div-by-zero if the connection starts another cwnd reduction phase by setting tp->prior_cwnd to the current cwnd (0) in tcp_init_cwnd_reduction(). To prevent this we skip PRR operation when nothing is acked or sacked. Then cwnd must be positive in all cases as long as ssthresh is positive: 1) The proportional reduction mode inflight > ssthresh > 0 2) The reduction bound mode a) inflight == ssthresh > 0 b) inflight < ssthresh sndcnt > 0 since newly_acked_sacked > 0 and inflight < ssthresh Therefore in all cases inflight and sndcnt can not both be 0. We check invalid tp->prior_cwnd to avoid potential div0 bugs. In reality this bug is triggered only with a sequence of less common events. For example, the connection is terminating an ECN-triggered cwnd reduction with an inflight 0, then it receives reordered/old ACKs or DSACKs from prior transmission (which acks nothing). Or the connection is in fast recovery stage that marks everything lost, but fails to retransmit due to local issues, then receives data packets from other end which acks nothing.

commit d79f16c0 fixed a user triggerable scribble on free memory but added a new one which allows the user to scribble even more and user controlled data into freed space. As with 6pack we need to halt the queue before we free the buffers, because the transmit logic is not protected by the semaphore.

commit acf673a3 fixed a user triggerable free memory scribble but in doing so replaced it with a different one that allows the user to control the data and scribble even more. sixpack_close is called by the tty layer in tty context. The tty context is protected by sp_get() and sp_put(). However network layer activity via sp_xmit() is not protected this way. We must therefore stop the queue otherwise the user gets to dump a buffer mostly of their choice into freed kernel pages. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The SKF_AD_ALU_XOR_X ancillary is not like the other ancillary data instructions since it XORs A with X while all the others replace A with some loaded value. All the BPF JITs fail to clear A if this is used as the first instruction in a filter. This was found using american fuzzy lop. Add a helper to determine if A needs to be cleared given the first instruction in a filter, and use this in the JITs. Except for ARM, the rest have only been compile-tested.

This allows the build system to know that it can't attempt to configure the Lustre virtual block device, for example, when tilepro is using 64KB pages (as it does by default). The tilegx build already provided those symbols. Previously we required that the tilepro hypervisor be rebuilt with a different hardcoded page size in its headers, and then Linux be rebuilt using the updated hypervisor header. Now we allow each of the hypervisor and Linux to be built independently. We still check at boot time to ensure that the page size provided by the hypervisor matches what Linux expects.

On 2015/11/06, Dmitry Vyukov reported a deadlock involving the splice system call and AF_UNIX sockets, http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2015/11/06/24 The situation was analyzed as (a while ago) A: socketpair() B: splice() from a pipe to /mnt/regular_file does sb_start_write() on /mnt C: try to freeze /mnt wait for B to finish with /mnt A: bind() try to bind our socket to /mnt/new_socket_name lock our socket, see it not bound yet decide that it needs to create something in /mnt try to do sb_start_write() on /mnt, block (it's waiting for C). D: splice() from the same pipe to our socket lock the pipe, see that socket is connected try to lock the socket, block waiting for A B: get around to actually feeding a chunk from pipe to file, try to lock the pipe. Deadlock. on 2015/11/10 by Al Viro, http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2015/11/10/4 The patch fixes this by removing the kern_path_create related code from unix_mknod and executing it as part of unix_bind prior acquiring the readlock of the socket in question. This means that A (as used above) will sb_start_write on /mnt before it acquires the readlock, hence, it won't indirectly block B which first did a sb_start_write and then waited for a thread trying to acquire the readlock. Consequently, A being blocked by C waiting for B won't cause a deadlock anymore (effectively, both A and B acquire two locks in opposite order in the situation described above).

In sctp_close, sctp_make_abort_user may return NULL because of memory allocation failure. If this happens, it will bypass any state change and never free the assoc. The assoc has no chance to be freed and it will be kept in memory with the state it had even after the socket is closed by sctp_close(). So if sctp_make_abort_user fails to allocate memory, we should abort the asoc via sctp_primitive_ABORT as well. Just like the annotation in sctp_sf_cookie_wait_prm_abort and sctp_sf_do_9_1_prm_abort said, "Even if we can't send the ABORT due to low memory delete the TCB. This is a departure from our typical NOMEM handling". But then the chunk is NULL (low memory) and the SCTP_CMD_REPLY cmd would dereference the chunk pointer, and system crash. So we should add SCTP_CMD_REPLY cmd only when the chunk is not NULL, just like other places where it adds SCTP_CMD_REPLY cmd.

Commit ceb5d58b ("net: fix sock_wake_async() rcu protection") from the current 4.4 release cycle introduced a new flags member in struct socket_wq and moved SOCKWQ_ASYNC_NOSPACE and SOCKWQ_ASYNC_WAITDATA from struct socket's flags member into that new place. Unfortunately, the new flags field is never initialized properly, at least not for the struct socket_wq instance created in sock_alloc_inode(). One particular issue I encountered because of this is that my GNU Emacs failed to draw anything on my desktop -- i.e. what I got is a transparent window, including the title bar. Bisection lead to the commit mentioned above and further investigation by means of strace told me that Emacs is indeed speaking to my Xorg through an O_ASYNC AF_UNIX socket. This is reproducible 100% of times and the fact that properly initializing the struct socket_wq ->flags fixes the issue leads me to the conclusion that somehow SOCKWQ_ASYNC_WAITDATA got set in the uninitialized ->flags, preventing my Emacs from receiving any SIGIO's due to data becoming available and it got stuck. Make sock_alloc_inode() set the newly created struct socket_wq's ->flags member to zero.

The total delay of HDMI hotplug detecting with 30ms is sometimes not enoughtfor HDMI live status up with specific HDMI monitors in BSW platform. After doing experiments for following monitors, it needs 80ms at least for those worst cases.

mod_zone_page_state() takes a "delta" integer argument. delta contains the number of pages that should be added or subtracted from a struct zone's vm_stat field. If a zone is larger than 8TB this will cause overflows. E.g. for a zone with a size slightly larger than 8TB the line mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_ALLOC_BATCH, zone->managed_pages); in mm/page_alloc.c:free_area_init_core() will result in a negative result for the NR_ALLOC_BATCH entry within the zone's vm_stat, since 8TB contain 0x8xxxxxxx pages which will be sign extended to a negative value. Fix this by changing the delta argument to long type. This could fix an early boot problem seen on s390, where we have a 9TB system with only one node. ZONE_DMA contains 2GB and ZONE_NORMAL the rest. The system is trying to allocate a GFP_DMA page but ZONE_DMA is completely empty, so it tries to reclaim pages in an endless loop. This was seen on a heavily patched 3.10 kernel. One possible explaination seem to be the overflows caused by mod_zone_page_state(). Unfortunately I did not have the chance to verify that this patch actually fixes the problem, since I don't have access to the system right now. However the overflow problem does exist anyway. Given the description that a system with slightly less than 8TB does work, this seems to be a candidate for the observed problem.

We have found a BUG on res->migration_pending when migrating lock resources. The situation is as follows. dlm_mark_lockres_migration res->migration_pending = 1; __dlm_lockres_reserve_ast dlm_lockres_release_ast returns with res->migration_pending remains because other threads reserve asts wait dlm_migration_can_proceed returns 1 >>>>>>> o2hb found that target goes down and remove target from domain_map dlm_migration_can_proceed returns 1 dlm_mark_lockres_migrating returns -ESHOTDOWN with res->migration_pending still remains. When reentering dlm_mark_lockres_migrating(), it will trigger the BUG_ON with res->migration_pending. So clear migration_pending when target is down.

test_pages_in_a_zone() does not account for the possibility of missing sections in the given pfn range. pfn_valid_within always returns 1 when CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE is not set, allowing invalid pfns from missing sections to pass the test, leading to a kernel oops. Wrap an additional pfn loop with PAGES_PER_SECTION granularity to check for missing sections before proceeding into the zone-check code. This also prevents a crash from offlining memory devices with missing sections. Despite this, it may be a good idea to keep the related patch '[PATCH 3/3] drivers: memory: prohibit offlining of memory blocks with missing sections' because missing sections in a memory block may lead to other problems not covered by the scope of this fix.
