commit dd48d708 upstream. When repeating a UTC time value during a leap second (when the UTC time should be 23:59:60), the TAI timescale should not stop. The kernel NTP code increments the TAI offset one second too late. This patch fixes the issue by incrementing the offset during the leap second itself. Signed-off-by:

This is a backport of 6b43ae8a This should have been backported when it was commited, but I mistook the problem as requiring the ntp_lock changes that landed in 3.4 in order for it to occur. Unfortunately the same issue can happen (with only one cpu) as follows: do_adjtimex() write_seqlock_irq(&xtime_lock); process_adjtimex_modes() process_adj_status() ntp_start_leap_timer() hrtimer_start() hrtimer_reprogram() tick_program_event() clockevents_program_event() ktime_get() seq = req_seqbegin(xtime_lock); [DEADLOCK] This deadlock will no always occur, as it requires the leap_timer to force a hrtimer_reprogram which only happens if its set and there's no sooner timer to expire. NOTE: This patch, being faithful to the original commit, introduces a bug (we don't update wall_to_monotonic), which will be resovled by backporting a following fix. Original commit message below: Since commit 7dffa3c6 the ntp subsystem has used an hrtimer for triggering the leapsecond adjustment. However, this can cause a potential livelock. Thomas diagnosed this as the following pattern: CPU 0 CPU 1 do_adjtimex() spin_lock_irq(&ntp_lock); process_adjtimex_modes(); timer_interrupt() process_adj_status(); do_timer() ntp_start_leap_timer(); write_lock(&xtime_lock); hrtimer_start(); update_wall_time(); hrtimer_reprogram(); ntp_tick_length() tick_program_event() spin_lock(&ntp_lock); clockevents_program_event() ktime_get() seq = req_seqbegin(xtime_lock); This patch tries to avoid the problem by reverting back to not using an hrtimer to inject leapseconds, and instead we handle the leapsecond processing in the second_overflow() function. The downside to this change is that on systems that support highres timers, the leap second processing will occur on a HZ tick boundary, (ie: ~1-10ms, depending on HZ) after the leap second instead of possibly sooner (~34us in my tests w/ x86_64 lapic). This patch applies on top of tip/timers/core. CC: Sasha Levin <levinsasha928@gmail.com> CC: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Reported-by:

commit 7c8d3a42 upstream. We can't guarantee that REQ_DISCARD on dm-mirror zeroes the data even if the underlying disks support zero on discard. So this patch sets ti->discard_zeroes_data_unsupported. For example, if the mirror is in the process of resynchronizing, it may happen that kcopyd reads a piece of data, then discard is sent on the same area and then kcopyd writes the piece of data to another leg. Consequently, the data is not zeroed. The flag was made available by commit 983c7db3 (dm crypt: always disable discard_zeroes_data). Signed-off-by:

commit 751f188d upstream. This patch fixes a crash when a discard request is sent during mirror recovery. Firstly, some background. Generally, the following sequence happens during mirror synchronization: - function do_recovery is called - do_recovery calls dm_rh_recovery_prepare - dm_rh_recovery_prepare uses a semaphore to limit the number simultaneously recovered regions (by default the semaphore value is 1, so only one region at a time is recovered) - dm_rh_recovery_prepare calls __rh_recovery_prepare, __rh_recovery_prepare asks the log driver for the next region to recover. Then, it sets the region state to DM_RH_RECOVERING. If there are no pending I/Os on this region, the region is added to quiesced_regions list. If there are pending I/Os, the region is not added to any list. It is added to the quiesced_regions list later (by dm_rh_dec function) when all I/Os finish. - when the region is on quiesced_regions list, there are no I/Os in flight on this region. The region is popped from the list in dm_rh_recovery_start function. Then, a kcopyd job is started in the recover function. - when the kcopyd job finishes, recovery_complete is called. It calls dm_rh_recovery_end. dm_rh_recovery_end adds the region to recovered_regions or failed_recovered_regions list (depending on whether the copy operation was successful or not). The above mechanism assumes that if the region is in DM_RH_RECOVERING state, no new I/Os are started on this region. When I/O is started, dm_rh_inc_pending is called, which increases reg->pending count. When I/O is finished, dm_rh_dec is called. It decreases reg->pending count. If the count is zero and the region was in DM_RH_RECOVERING state, dm_rh_dec adds it to the quiesced_regions list. Consequently, if we call dm_rh_inc_pending/dm_rh_dec while the region is in DM_RH_RECOVERING state, it could be added to quiesced_regions list multiple times or it could be added to this list when kcopyd is copying data (it is assumed that the region is not on any list while kcopyd does its jobs). This results in memory corruption and crash. There already exist bypasses for REQ_FLUSH requests: REQ_FLUSH requests do not belong to any region, so they are always added to the sync list in do_writes. dm_rh_inc_pending does not increase count for REQ_FLUSH requests. In mirror_end_io, dm_rh_dec is never called for REQ_FLUSH requests. These bypasses avoid the crash possibility described above. These bypasses were improperly implemented for REQ_DISCARD when the mirror target gained discard support in commit 5fc2ffea (dm raid1: support discard). In do_writes, REQ_DISCARD requests is always added to the sync queue and immediately dispatched (even if the region is in DM_RH_RECOVERING). However, dm_rh_inc and dm_rh_dec is called for REQ_DISCARD resusts. So it violates the rule that no I/Os are started on DM_RH_RECOVERING regions, and causes the list corruption described above. This patch changes it so that REQ_DISCARD requests follow the same path as REQ_FLUSH. This avoids the crash. Reference: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/837607Signed-off-by:

commit c999ff68 upstream. It is very common for the end of the file to be unaligned on stripe size. But since we know it's beyond file's end then the XOR should be preformed with all zeros. Old code used to just read zeros out of the OSD devices, which is a great waist. But what scares me more about this situation is that, we now have pages attached to the file's mapping that are beyond i_size. I don't like the kind of bugs this calls for. Fix both birds, by returning a global zero_page, if offset is beyond i_size.

commit 9ff19309 upstream. In RAID_5/6 We used to not permit an IO that it's end byte is not stripe_size aligned and spans more than one stripe. .i.e the caller must check if after submission the actual transferred bytes is shorter, and would need to resubmit a new IO with the remainder. Exofs supports this, and NFS was supposed to support this as well with it's short write mechanism. But late testing has exposed a CRASH when this is used with none-RPC layout-drivers. The change at NFS is deep and risky, in it's place the fix at ORE to lift the limitation is actually clean and simple. So here it is below. The principal here is that in the case of unaligned IO on both ends, beginning and end, we will send two read requests one like old code, before the calculation of the first stripe, and also a new site, before the calculation of the last stripe. If any "boundary" is aligned or the complete IO is within a single stripe. we do a single read like before. The code is clean and simple by splitting the old _read_4_write into 3 even parts: 1._read_4_write_first_stripe 2. _read_4_write_last_stripe 3. _read_4_write_execute And calling 1+3 at the same place as before. 2+3 before last stripe, and in the case of all in a single stripe then 1+2+3 is preformed additively. Why did I not think of it before. Well I had a strike of genius because I have stared at this code for 2 years, and did not find this simple solution, til today. Not that I did not try. This solution is much better for NFS than the previous supposedly solution because the short write was dealt with out-of-band after IO_done, which would cause for a seeky IO pattern where as in here we execute in order. At both solutions we do 2 separate reads, only here we do it within a single IO request. (And actually combine two writes into a single submission) NFS/exofs code need not change since the ORE API communicates the new shorter length on return, what will happen is that this case would not occur anymore. hurray!!

commit c6727932 upstream. UBIFS has a feature called "empty space fix-up" which is a quirk to work-around limitations of dumb flasher programs. Namely, of those flashers that are unable to skip NAND pages full of 0xFFs while flashing, resulting in empty space at the end of half-filled eraseblocks to be unusable for UBIFS. This feature is relatively new (introduced in v3.0). The fix-up routine (fixup_free_space()) is executed only once at the very first mount if the superblock has the 'space_fixup' flag set (can be done with -F option of mkfs.ubifs). It basically reads all the UBIFS data and metadata and writes it back to the same LEB. The routine assumes the image is pristine and does not have anything in the journal. There was a bug in 'fixup_free_space()' where it fixed up the log incorrectly. All but one LEB of the log of a pristine file-system are empty. And one contains just a commit start node. And 'fixup_free_space()' just unmapped this LEB, which resulted in wiping the commit start node. As a result, some users were unable to mount the file-system next time with the following symptom: UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: first log node at LEB 3:0 is not CS node UBIFS error (pid 1): replay_log_leb: log error detected while replaying the log at LEB 3:0 The root-cause of this bug was that 'fixup_free_space()' wrongly assumed that the beginning of empty space in the log head (c->lhead_offs) was known on mount. However, it is not the case - it was always 0. UBIFS does not store in it the master node and finds out by scanning the log on every mount. The fix is simple - just pass commit start node size instead of 0 to 'fixup_leb()'. Signed-off-by:

commit 58e94ae1 upstream. commit 4367af55 md/raid1: clear bad-block record when write succeeds. Added a 'reschedule_retry' call possibility at the end of end_sync_write, but didn't add matching code at the end of sync_request_write. So if the writes complete very quickly, or scheduling makes it seem that way, then we can miss rescheduling the request and the resync could hang. Also commit 73d5c38a md: avoid races when stopping resync. Fix a race condition in this same code in end_sync_write but didn't make the change in sync_request_write. This patch updates sync_request_write to fix both of those. Patch is suitable for 3.1 and later kernels. Reported-by:

commit a05b7ea0 upstream. md will refuse to stop an array if any other fd (or mounted fs) is using it. When any fs is unmounted of when the last open fd is closed all pending IO will be flushed (e.g. sync_blockdev call in __blkdev_put) so there will be no pending IO to worry about when the array is stopped. However in order to send the STOP_ARRAY ioctl to stop the array one must first get and open fd on the block device. If some fd is being used to write to the block device and it is closed after mdadm open the block device, but before mdadm issues the STOP_ARRAY ioctl, then there will be no last-close on the md device so __blkdev_put will not call sync_blockdev. If this happens, then IO can still be in-flight while md tears down the array and bad things can happen (use-after-free and subsequent havoc). So in the case where do_md_stop is being called from an open file descriptor, call sync_block after taking the mutex to ensure there will be no new openers. This is needed when setting a read-write device to read-only too. Reported-by:

commit 1c7e7f6c upstream. Offlining memory may block forever, waiting for kswapd() to wake up because kswapd() does not check the event kthread->should_stop before sleeping. The proper pattern, from Documentation/memory-barriers.txt, is: --- waker --- event_indicated = 1; wake_up_process(event_daemon); --- sleeper --- for (;;) { set_current_state(TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE); if (event_indicated) break; schedule(); } set_current_state() may be wrapped by: prepare_to_wait(); In the kswapd() case, event_indicated is kthread->should_stop. === offlining memory (waker) === kswapd_stop() kthread_stop() kthread->should_stop = 1 wake_up_process() wait_for_completion() === kswapd_try_to_sleep (sleeper) === kswapd_try_to_sleep() prepare_to_wait() . . schedule() . . finish_wait() The schedule() needs to be protected by a test of kthread->should_stop, which is wrapped by kthread_should_stop().

commit 3ae629d9 upstream. We currently rely on being able to kmap all of the pages in an async read or write request. If you're on a machine that has CONFIG_HIGHMEM set then that kmap space is limited, sometimes to as low as 512 slots. With 512 slots, we can only support up to a 2M r/wsize, and that's assuming that we can get our greedy little hands on all of them. There are other users however, so it's possible we'll end up stuck with a size that large. Since we can't handle a rsize or wsize larger than that currently, cap those options at the number of kmap slots we have. We could consider capping it even lower, but we currently default to a max of 1M. Might as well allow those luddites on 32 bit arches enough rope to hang themselves. A more robust fix would be to teach the send and receive routines how to contend with an array of pages so we don't need to marshal up a kvec array at all. That's a fairly significant overhaul though, so we'll need this limit in place until that's ready. Reported-by:

commit 05d290d6 upstream. If a parent and child process open the two ends of a fifo, and the child immediately exits, the parent may receive a SIGCHLD before its open() returns. In that case, we need to make sure that open() will return successfully after the SIGCHLD handler returns, instead of throwing EINTR or being restarted. Otherwise, the restarted open() would incorrectly wait for a second partner on the other end. The following test demonstrates the EINTR that was wrongly thrown from the parent’s open(). Change .sa_flags = 0 to .sa_flags = SA_RESTART to see a deadlock instead, in which the restarted open() waits for a second reader that will never come. (On my systems, this happens pretty reliably within about 5 to 500 iterations. Others report that it manages to loop ~forever sometimes; YMMV.) #include <sys/stat.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <signal.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #define CHECK(x) do if ((x) == -1) {perror(#x); abort();} while(0) void handler(int signum) {} int main() { struct sigaction act = {.sa_handler = handler, .sa_flags = 0}; CHECK(sigaction(SIGCHLD, &act, NULL)); CHECK(mknod("fifo", S_IFIFO | S_IRWXU, 0)); for (;;) { int fd; pid_t pid; putc('.', stderr); CHECK(pid = fork()); if (pid == 0) { CHECK(fd = open("fifo", O_RDONLY)); _exit(0); } CHECK(fd = open("fifo", O_WRONLY)); CHECK(close(fd)); CHECK(waitpid(pid, NULL, 0)); } } This is what I suspect was causing the Git test suite to fail in t9010-svn-fe.sh: http://bugs.debian.org/678852Signed-off-by:

commit 3cc5d2a6 upstream. This patch fixes a crash seen when large reads have their exchange aborted by either timing out or being reset. Because the exchange abort results in the seq pointer being set to NULL, because the sequence is no longer valid, it must not be dereferenced. This patch changes the function ft_get_task_tag to return ~0 if it is unable to get the tag for this reason. Because the get_task_tag interface provides no means of returning an error, this seems like the best way to fix this issue at the moment. Signed-off-by:

commit efd82118 upstream. On rt2x00_dmastart() we increase index specified by Q_INDEX and on rt2x00_dmadone() we increase index specified by Q_INDEX_DONE. So entries between Q_INDEX_DONE and Q_INDEX are those we currently process in the hardware. Entries between Q_INDEX and Q_INDEX_DONE are those we can submit to the hardware. According to that fix rt2x00usb_kick_queue(), as we need to submit RX entries that are not processed by the hardware. It worked before only for empty queue, otherwise was broken. Note that for TX queues indexes ordering are ok. We need to kick entries that have filled skb, but was not submitted to the hardware, i.e. started from Q_INDEX_DONE and have ENTRY_DATA_PENDING bit set.

Jones and Marcos Mello noted a few separate bugzillas also associated with the same issue. This patch has been confirmed to fix: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=835019 The main problem is here, in __getblk_slow: for (;;) { struct buffer_head * bh; int ret; bh = __find_get_block(bdev, block, size); if (bh) return bh; ret = grow_buffers(bdev, block, size); if (ret < 0) return NULL; if (ret == 0) free_more_memory(); } __find_get_block does not find the block, since it will not be marked as mapped, and so grow_buffers is called to fill in the buffers for the associated page. I believe the for (;;) loop is there primarily to retry in the case of memory pressure keeping grow_buffers from succeeding. However, we also continue to loop for other cases, like the block lying beond the end of the disk. So, the fix I came up with is to only loop when grow_buffers fails due to memory allocation issues (return value of 0). The attached patch was tested by myself, Torsten, and Rich, and was found to resolve the problem in call cases. Signed-off-by:

commit c4686c71 upstream. Commit d640113f introduced a regression on SMP systems where the processor core with ACPI id zero is disabled (typically should be the case because of hyperthreading). The regression got spread through stable kernels. On 3.0.X it got introduced via 3.0.18. Such platforms may be rare, but do exist. Look out for a disabled processor with acpi_id 0 in dmesg: ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x00] lapic_id[0x10] disabled) This problem has been observed on a: HP Proliant BL280c G6 blade This patch restricts the introduced workaround to platforms with nr_cpu_ids <= 1.

commit fea9f718 upstream. There is a bug in the below scenario for !CONFIG_MMU: 1. create a new file 2. mmap the file and write to it 3. read the file can't get the correct value Because sys_read() -> generic_file_aio_read() -> simple_readpage() -> clear_page() which causes the page to be zeroed. Add SetPageUptodate() to ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping() so that generic_file_aio_read() do not call simple_readpage(). Signed-off-by:

commit 4bf2bba3 upstream. If page migration cannot charge the temporary page to the memcg, migrate_pages() will return -ENOMEM. This isn't considered in memory compaction however, and the loop continues to iterate over all pageblocks trying to isolate and migrate pages. If a small number of very large memcgs happen to be oom, however, these attempts will mostly be futile leading to an enormous amout of cpu consumption due to the page migration failures. This patch will short circuit and fail memory compaction if migrate_pages() returns -ENOMEM. COMPACT_PARTIAL is returned in case some migrations were successful so that the page allocator will retry.

commit d8adde17 upstream. kswapd_stop() is called to destroy the kswapd work thread when all memory of a NUMA node has been offlined. But kswapd_stop() only terminates the work thread without resetting NODE_DATA(nid)->kswapd to NULL. The stale pointer will prevent kswapd_run() from creating a new work thread when adding memory to the memory-less NUMA node again. Eventually the stale pointer may cause invalid memory access. An example stack dump as below. It's reproduced with 2.6.32, but latest kernel has the same issue.

commit dbf0e4c7 upstream. Quite a few ASUS computers experience a nasty problem, related to the EHCI controllers, when going into system suspend. It was observed that the problem didn't occur if the controllers were not put into the D3 power state before starting the suspend, and commit 151b6128 (USB: EHCI: fix crash during suspend on ASUS computers) was created to do this. It turned out this approach messed up other computers that didn't have the problem -- it prevented USB wakeup from working. Consequently commit c2fb8a3f (USB: add NO_D3_DURING_SLEEP flag and revert 151b6128) was merged; it reverted the earlier commit and added a whitelist of known good board names. Now we know the actual cause of the problem. Thanks to AceLan Kao for tracking it down. According to him, an engineer at ASUS explained that some of their BIOSes contain a bug that was added in an attempt to work around a problem in early versions of Windows. When the computer goes into S3 suspend, the BIOS tries to verify that the EHCI controllers were first quiesced by the OS. Nothing's wrong with this, but the BIOS does it by checking that the PCI COMMAND registers contain 0 without checking the controllers' power state. If the register isn't 0, the BIOS assumes the controller needs to be quiesced and tries to do so. This involves making various MMIO accesses to the controller, which don't work very well if the controller is already in D3. The end result is a system hang or memory corruption. Since the value in the PCI COMMAND register doesn't matter once the controller has been suspended, and since the value will be restored anyway when the controller is resumed, we can work around the BIOS bug simply by setting the register to 0 during system suspend. This patch (as1590) does so and also reverts the second commit mentioned above, which is now unnecessary. In theory we could do this for every PCI device. However to avoid introducing new problems, the patch restricts itself to EHCI host controllers. Finally the affected systems can suspend with USB wakeup working properly.

commit 2d4f4f33 upstream. This bug has been present ever since data-check was introduce in 2.6.16. However it would only fire if a data-check were done on a degraded array, which was only possible if the array has 3 or more devices. This is certainly possible, but is quite uncommon. Since hot-replace was added in 3.3 it can happen more often as the same condition can arise if not all possible replacements are present. The problem is that as soon as we submit the last read request, the 'r1_bio' structure could be freed at any time, so we really should stop looking at it. If the last device is being read from we will stop looking at it. However if the last device is not due to be read from, we will still check the bio pointer in the r1_bio, but the r1_bio might already be free. So use the read_targets counter to make sure we stop looking for bios to submit as soon as we have submitted them all. This fix is suitable for any -stable kernel since 2.6.16. Reported-by:
