      uprobes/x86: Kill the "ia32_compat" check in handle_riprel_insn(), remove "mm" arg · 59078d4b
      Oleg Nesterov authored 
      Kill the "mm->context.ia32_compat" check in handle_riprel_insn(), if
it is true insn_rip_relative() must return false. validate_insn_bits()
passed "ia32_compat" as !x86_64 to insn_init(), and insn_rip_relative()
checks insn->x86_64.

Also, remove the no longer needed "struct mm_struct *mm" argument and
the unnecessary "return" at the end.

      uprobes/x86: Fold prepare_fixups() into arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() · ddb69f27
      Oleg Nesterov authored 
      No functional changes, preparation.

Shift the code from prepare_fixups() to arch_uprobe_analyze_insn()
with the following modifications:

	- Do not call insn_get_opcode() again, it was already called
	  by validate_insn_bits().

	- Move "case 0xea" up. This way "case 0xff" can fall through
	  to default case.

	- change "case 0xff" to use the nested "switch (MODRM_REG)",
	  this way the code looks a bit simpler.

	- Make the comments look consistent.

While at it, kill the initialization of rip_rela_target_address and
->fixups, we can rely on kzalloc(). We will add the new members into
arch_uprobe, it would be better to assume that everything is zero by
default.

TODO: cleanup/fix the mess in validate_insn_bits() paths:

	- validate_insn_64bits() and validate_insn_32bits() should be
	  unified.

	- "ifdef" is not used consistently; if good_insns_64 depends
	  on CONFIG_X86_64, then probably good_insns_32 should depend
	  on CONFIG_X86_32/EMULATION

	- the usage of mm->context.ia32_compat looks wrong if the task
	  is TIF_X32.

      uprobes: Kill UPROBE_SKIP_SSTEP and can_skip_sstep() · 8a6b1732
      Oleg Nesterov authored 
      UPROBE_COPY_INSN, UPROBE_SKIP_SSTEP, and uprobe->flags must die. This
patch kills UPROBE_SKIP_SSTEP. I never understood why it was added;
not only it doesn't help, it harms.

It can only help to avoid arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() if it was already
called before and failed. But this is ugly, if we want to know whether
we can emulate this instruction or not we should do this analysis in
arch_uprobe_analyze_insn(), not when we hit this probe for the first
time.

And in fact this logic is simply wrong. arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() can
fail or not depending on the task/register state, if this insn can be
emulated but, say, put_user() fails we need to xol it this time, but
this doesn't mean we shouldn't try to emulate it when this or another
thread hits this bp next time.

And this is the actual reason for this change. We need to emulate the
"call" insn, but push(return-address) can obviously fail.

Per-arch notes:

	x86: __skip_sstep() can only emulate "rep;nop". With this
	     change it will be called every time and most probably
	     for no reason.

	     This will be fixed by the next changes. We need to
	     change this suboptimal code anyway.

	arm: Should not be affected. It has its own "bool simulate"
	     flag checked in arch_uprobe_skip_sstep().

	ppc: Looks like, it can emulate almost everything. Does it
	     actually need to record the fact that emulate_step()
	     failed? Hopefully not. But if yes, it can add the ppc-
	     specific flag into arch_uprobe.

TODO: rename arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() to arch_uprobe_emulate_insn(),

      sym53c8xx_2: Set DID_REQUEUE return code when aborting squeue · fd1232b2
      Mikulas Patocka authored 
      This patch fixes I/O errors with the sym53c8xx_2 driver when the disk
returns QUEUE FULL status.

When the controller encounters an error (including QUEUE FULL or BUSY
status), it aborts all not yet submitted requests in the function
sym_dequeue_from_squeue.

This function aborts them with DID_SOFT_ERROR.

If the disk has full tag queue, the request that caused the overflow is
aborted with QUEUE FULL status (and the scsi midlayer properly retries
it until it is accepted by the disk), but the sym53c8xx_2 driver aborts
the following requests with DID_SOFT_ERROR --- for them, the midlayer
does just a few retries and then signals the error up to sd.

The result is that disk returning QUEUE FULL causes request failures.

The error was reproduced on 53c895 with COMPAQ BD03685A24 disk
(rebranded ST336607LC) with command queue 48 or 64 tags.  The disk has
64 tags, but under some access patterns it return QUEUE FULL when there
are less than 64 pending tags.  The SCSI specification allows returning
QUEUE FULL anytime and it is up to the host to retry.

      powerpc: Don't try to set LPCR unless we're in hypervisor mode · 18aa0da3
      Paul Mackerras authored 
      Commit 8f619b54 ("powerpc/ppc64: Do not turn AIL (reloc-on
interrupts) too early") added code to set the AIL bit in the LPCR
without checking whether the kernel is running in hypervisor mode.  The
result is that when the kernel is running as a guest (i.e., under
PowerKVM or PowerVM), the processor takes a privileged instruction
interrupt at that point, causing a panic.  The visible result is that
the kernel hangs after printing "returning from prom_init".

This fixes it by checking for hypervisor mode being available before
setting LPCR.  If we are not in hypervisor mode, we enable relocation-on
interrupts later in pSeries_setup_arch using the H_SET_MODE hcall.

      futex: update documentation for ordering guarantees · d7e8af1a
      Davidlohr Bueso authored 
      Commits 11d4616b ("futex: revert back to the explicit waiter
counting code") and 69cd9eba ("futex: avoid race between requeue and
wake") changed some of the finer details of how we think about futexes.
One was a late fix and the other a consequence of overlooking the whole
requeuing logic.

The first change caused our documentation to be incorrect, and the
second made us aware that we need to explicitly add more details to it.

 2) L2TP PPP connect code takes PMTU from the wrong socket, fix from
    Dmitry Petukhov.

 3) UFO and TSO packets differ in whether they include the protocol
    header in gso_size, account for that in skb_gso_transport_seglen().
   From Florian Westphal.

 4) If VLAN untagging fails, we double free the SKB in the bridging
    output path.  From Toshiaki Makita.

 5) Several call sites of sk->sk_data_ready() were referencing an SKB
    just added to the socket receive queue in order to calculate the
    second argument via skb->len.  This is dangerous because the moment
    the skb is added to the receive queue it can be consumed in another
    context and freed up.

    It turns out also that none of the sk->sk_data_ready()
    implementations even care about this second argument.

    So just kill it off and thus fix all these use-after-free bugs as a
    side effect.

 6) Fix inverted test in tcp_v6_send_response(), from Lorenzo Colitti.

 7) pktgen needs to do locking properly for LLTX devices, from Daniel
    Borkmann.

 8) xen-netfront driver initializes TX array entries in RX loop :-) From
    Vincenzo Maffione.

 9) After refactoring, some tunnel drivers allow a tunnel to be
