commit 49908a1b upstream. A update is made to the sched:sched_switch event that adds some logic to the first parameter of the __print_flags() that shows the state of tasks. This change cause perf to fail parsing the flags. A simple fix is needed to have the parser be able to process ops within the argument. Reported-by:

commit e4f387d8 upstream. Unpaired calling of probe_hcall_entry and probe_hcall_exit might happen as following, which could cause incorrect preempt count. __trace_hcall_entry => trace_hcall_entry -> probe_hcall_entry => get_cpu_var => preempt_disable __trace_hcall_exit => trace_hcall_exit -> probe_hcall_exit => put_cpu_var => preempt_enable where: A => B and A -> B means A calls B, but => means A will call B through function name, and B will definitely be called. -> means A will call B through function pointer, so B might not be called if the function pointer is not set. So error happens when only one of probe_hcall_entry and probe_hcall_exit get called during a hcall. This patch tries to move the preempt count operations from probe_hcall_entry and probe_hcall_exit to its callers. Reported-by:

commit 37fb9a02 upstream. When re-enabling interrupts we have code to handle edge sensitive decrementers by resetting the decrementer to 1 whenever it is negative. If interrupts were disabled long enough that the decrementer wrapped to positive we do nothing. This means interrupts can be delayed for a long time until it finally goes negative again. While we hope interrupts are never be disabled long enough for the decrementer to go positive, we have a very good test team that can drive any kernel into the ground. The softlockup data we get back from these fails could be seconds in the future, completely missing the cause of the lockup. We already keep track of the timebase of the next event so use that to work out if we should trigger a decrementer exception. Signed-off-by:

commit 1bb0b7d2 upstream. When using a >8bpp framebuffer, offb advertises truecolor, not directcolor, and doesn't touch the color map even if it has a corresponding access method for the real hardware. Thus it needs to set the pseudo-palette with all 3 components of the color, like other truecolor framebuffers, not with copies of the color index like a directcolor framebuffer would do. This went unnoticed for a long time because it's pretty hard to get offb to kick in with anything but 8bpp (old BootX under MacOS will do that and qemu does it). Signed-off-by:

commit eea915bb upstream. This oops was reported recently: firmware_loading_store+0xf9/0x17b dev_attr_store+0x20/0x22 sysfs_write_file+0x101/0x134 vfs_write+0xac/0xf3 sys_write+0x4a/0x6e system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b The complete backtrace was unfortunately not captured, but details can be found here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769920 The cause is fairly clear. Its caused by the fact that firmware_loading_store has a case 0 in its switch statement that reads and writes the fw_priv->fw poniter without the protection of the fw_lock mutex. since there is a window between the time that _request_firmware sets fw_priv->fw to NULL and the time the corresponding sysfs file is unregistered, its possible for a user space application to race in, and write a zero to the loading file, causing a NULL dereference in firmware_loading_store. Fix it by extending the protection of the fw_lock mutex to cover all of the firware_loading_store function. Signed-off-by:

commit 8a88951b upstream. This is the temporary simple fix for 3.2, we need more changes in this area. 1. do_signal_stop() assumes that the running untraced thread in the stopped thread group is not possible. This was our goal but it is not yet achieved: a stopped-but-resumed tracee can clone the running thread which can initiate another group-stop. Remove WARN_ON_ONCE(!current->ptrace). 2. A new thread always starts with ->jobctl = 0. If it is auto-attached and this group is stopped, __ptrace_unlink() sets JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING but JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK part is zero, this triggers WANR_ON(!signr) in do_jobctl_trap() if another debugger attaches. Change __ptrace_unlink() to set the artificial SIGSTOP for report. Alternatively we could change ptrace_init_task() to copy signr from current, but this means we can copy it for no reason and hide the possible similar problems. Acked-by:

commit 50b8d257 upstream. Test-case: int main(void) { int pid, status; pid = fork(); if (!pid) { for (;;) { if (!fork()) return 0; if (waitpid(-1, &status, 0) < 0) { printf("ERR!! wait: %m\n"); return 0; } } } assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0,0) == 0); assert(waitpid(-1, NULL, 0) == pid); assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0, PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK) == 0); do { ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, 0); pid = waitpid(-1, NULL, 0); } while (pid > 0); return 1; } It fails because ->real_parent sees its child in EXIT_DEAD state while the tracer is going to change the state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE in wait_task_zombie(). The offending commit is 823b018e which moved the EXIT_DEAD check, but in fact we should not blame it. The original code was not correct as well because it didn't take ptrace_reparented() into account and because we can't really trust ->ptrace. This patch adds the additional check to close this particular race but it doesn't solve the whole problem. We simply can't rely on ->ptrace in this case, it can be cleared if the tracer is multithreaded by the exiting ->parent. I think we should kill EXIT_DEAD altogether, we should always remove the soon-to-be-reaped child from ->children or at least we should never do the DEAD->ZOMBIE transition. But this is too complex for 3.2. Reported-and-tested-by:

[ Upstream commit a76c0adf ] When checking whether a DATA chunk fits into the estimated rwnd a full sizeof(struct sk_buff) is added to the needed chunk size. This quickly exhausts the available rwnd space and leads to packets being sent which are much below the PMTU limit. This can lead to much worse performance. The reason for this behaviour was to avoid putting too much memory pressure on the receiver. The concept is not completely irational because a Linux receiver does in fact clone an skb for each DATA chunk delivered. However, Linux also reserves half the available socket buffer space for data structures therefore usage of it is already accounted for. When proposing to change this the last time it was noted that this behaviour was introduced to solve a performance issue caused by rwnd overusage in combination with small DATA chunks. Trying to reproduce this I found that with the sk_buff overhead removed, the performance would improve significantly unless socket buffer limits are increased. The following numbers have been gathered using a patched iperf supporting SCTP over a live 1 Gbit ethernet network. The -l option was used to limit DATA chunk sizes. The numbers listed are based on the average of 3 test runs each. Default values have been used for sk_(r|w)mem.

[ Upstream commit 2692ba61 ] Commit 8ffd3208 voids the previous patches f6778aab and 810c0719 for limiting the autoclose value. If userspace passes in -1 on 32-bit platform, the overflow check didn't work and autoclose would be set to 0xffffffff. This patch defines a max_autoclose (in seconds) for limiting the value and exposes it through sysctl, with the following intentions. 1) Avoid overflowing autoclose * HZ. 2) Keep the default autoclose bound consistent across 32- and 64-bit platforms (INT_MAX / HZ in this patch). 3) Keep the autoclose value consistent between setsockopt() and getsockopt() calls.

[ Upstream commit a03ffcf8 ] x86 jump instruction size is 2 or 5 bytes (near/long jump), not 2 or 6 bytes. In case a conditional jump is followed by a long jump, conditional jump target is one byte past the start of target instruction. Signed-off-by:

[ A combination of upstream commits 1d299bc7 and e88d2468 ] Although we provide a proper way for a debugger to control whether syscall restart occurs, we run into problems because orig_i0 is not saved and restored properly. Luckily we can solve this problem without having to make debuggers aware of the issue. Across system calls, several registers are considered volatile and can be safely clobbered. Therefore we use the pt_regs save area of one of those registers, %g6, as a place to save and restore orig_i0. Debuggers transparently will do the right thing because they save and restore this register already. Signed-off-by:
