When cpu/task clock events are initialized, their sampling frequencies are converted to have a fixed value. However it missed to update the hwc->last_period which was set to 1 for initial sampling frequency calibration. Because this hwc->last_period value is used as a period in perf_swevent_ hrtime(), every recorded sample will have an incorrected period of 1. $ perf record -e task-clock noploop 1 [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.158 MB perf.data (~6919 samples) ] $ perf report -n --show-total-period --stdio # Samples: 4K of event 'task-clock' # Event count (approx.): 4000 # # Overhead Samples Period Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ............ ............ ....... ............. .................. # 99.95% 3998 3998 noploop noploop [.] main 0.03% 1 1 noploop libc-2.15.so [.] init_cacheinfo 0.03% 1 1 noploop ld-2.15.so [.] open_verify Note that it doesn't affect the non-sampling event so that the perf stat still gets correct value with or without this patch. $ perf stat -e task-clock noploop 1 Performance counter stats for 'noploop 1': 1000.272525 task-clock # 1.000 CPUs utilized 1.000560605 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@lge.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1363574507-18808-1-git-send-email-namhyung@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

Pull namespace bugfixes from Eric Biederman: "This tree includes a partial revert for "fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules." When I added the new style module aliases to the filesystems I deleted the old ones. A bad move. It turns out that distributions like Arch linux use module aliases when constructing ramdisks. Which meant ultimately that an ext3 filesystem mounted with ext4 would not result in the ext4 module being put into the ramdisk. The other change in this tree adds a handful of filesystem module alias I simply failed to add the first time. Which inconvinienced a few folks using cifs. I don't want to inconvinience folks any longer than I have to so here are these trivial fixes." * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: fs: Readd the fs module aliases. fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules.

GFP_NOIO is often used for idr_alloc() inside preloaded section as the allocation mask doesn't really matter. If the idr tree needs to be expanded, idr_alloc() first tries to allocate using the specified allocation mask and if it fails falls back to the preloaded buffer. This order prevent non-preloading idr_alloc() users from taking advantage of preloading ones by using preload buffer without filling it shifting the burden of allocation to the preload users. Unfortunately, this allowed/expected-to-fail kmem_cache allocation ends up generating spurious slab lowmem warning before succeeding the request from the preload buffer. This patch makes idr_layer_alloc() add __GFP_NOWARN to the first kmem_cache attempt and try kmem_cache again w/o __GFP_NOWARN after allocation from preload_buffer fails so that lowmem warning is generated if not suppressed by the original @gfp_mask.

In the UAPI header files, __BIG_ENDIAN and __LITTLE_ENDIAN must be compared against __BYTE_ORDER in preprocessor conditionals where these are exposed to userspace (that is they're not inside __KERNEL__ conditionals). However, in the main kernel the norm is to check for "defined(__XXX_ENDIAN)" rather than comparing against __BYTE_ORDER and this has incorrectly leaked into the userspace headers. The definition of struct stat64 in M32R's asm/stat.h is wrong in this way. Note that userspace will likely interpret the field order incorrectly as the big-endian variant on little-endian machines - depending on header inclusion order.

This patch preserves those. * drv_insert_node_res_element() returns -ENOMEM on alloc failure, -EFAULT if id space is exhausted. -EFAULT is at best misleading. * drv_proc_insert_strm_res_element() is even weirder. It returns -EFAULT if kzalloc() fails, -ENOMEM if idr preloading fails and -EPERM if id space is exhausted. What's going on here? * drv_proc_insert_strm_res_element() doesn't free *pstrm_res after failure. Only compile tested.

When the new signal handlers are set up, the location of sa_restorer is not cleared, leaking a parent process's address space location to children. This allows for a potential bypass of the parent's ASLR by examining the sa_restorer value returned when calling sigaction(). Based on what should be considered "secret" about addresses, it only matters across the exec not the fork (since the VMAs haven't changed until the exec). But since exec sets SIG_DFL and keeps sa_restorer, this is where it should be fixed. Given the few uses of sa_restorer, a "set" function was not written since this would be the only use. Instead, we use __ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER, as already done in other places. Example of the leak before applying this patch: $ cat /proc/$$/maps ... 7fb9f3083000-7fb9f3238000 r-xp 00000000 fd:01 404469 .../libc-2.15.so ... $ ./leak ... 7f278bc74000-7f278be29000 r-xp 00000000 fd:01 404469 .../libc-2.15.so ... 1 0 (nil) 0x7fb9f30b94a0 2 4000000 (nil) 0x7f278bcaa4a0 3 4000000 (nil) 0x7f278bcaa4a0 4 0 (nil) 0x7fb9f30b94a0 ...

Don't allowing sharing the root directory with processes in a different user namespace. There doesn't seem to be any point, and to allow it would require the overhead of putting a user namespace reference in fs_struct (for permission checks) and incrementing that reference count on practically every call to fork. So just perform the inexpensive test of forbidding sharing fs_struct acrosss processes in different user namespaces. We already disallow other forms of threading when unsharing a user namespace so this should be no real burden in practice. This updates setns, clone, and unshare to disallow multiple user namespaces sharing an fs_struct. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Because function tracing is very invasive, and can even trace calls to rcu_read_lock(), RCU access in function tracing is done with preempt_disable_notrace(). This requires a synchronize_sched() for updates and not a synchronize_rcu(). Function probes (traceon, traceoff, etc) must be freed after a synchronize_sched() after its entry has been removed from the hash. But call_rcu() is used. Fix this by using call_rcu_sched(). Also fix the usage to use hlist_del_rcu() instead of hlist_del(). Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Cc: Paul McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

The commit 2e124b4a removed the checks that prevented qt2_process_read_urb() from trying to put chars into ttys that weren't actually opened. This resulted in 'tty is NULL' warnings from flush_to_ldisc() when the device was used. The devices use just one read urb for all ports. As a result qt2_process_read_urb() may be called with the current port set to a port number that has not been opened. Add a check if the port is open before calling tty_flip_buffer_push().

I had assumed that the only use of module aliases for filesystems prior to "fs: Limit sys_mount to only request filesystem modules." was in request_module. It turns out I was wrong. At least mkinitcpio in Arch linux uses these aliases. So readd the preexising aliases, to keep from breaking userspace. Userspace eventually will have to follow and use the same aliases the kernel does. So at some point we may be delete these aliases without problems. However that day is not today.

In commit 887cbce0 ("arch Kconfig: centralise ARCH_NO_VIRT_TO_BUS") I introduced the config sybmol HAVE_VIRT_TO_BUS and selected that where needed. I am not sure what I was thinking. Instead, just directly select VIRT_TO_BUS where it is needed. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Looking at mm/process_vm_access.c:process_vm_rw() and comparing it to compat_process_vm_rw() shows that the compatibility code requires an explicit "access_ok()" check before calling compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(). The same difference seems to appear when we compare fs/read_write.c:do_readv_writev() to fs/compat.c:compat_do_readv_writev(). This subtle difference between the compat and non-compat requirements should probably be debated, as it seems to be error-prone. In fact, there are two others sites that use this function in the Linux kernel, and they both seem to get it wrong: Now shifting our attention to fs/aio.c, we see that aio_setup_iocb() also ends up calling compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() through aio_setup_vectored_rw(). Unfortunately, the access_ok() check appears to be missing. Same situation for security/keys/compat.c:compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov(). I propose that we add the access_ok() check directly into compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(), so callers don't have to worry about it, and it therefore makes the compat call code similar to its non-compat counterpart. Place the access_ok() check in the same location where copy_from_user() can trigger a -EFAULT error in the non-compat code, so the ABI behaviors are alike on both compat and non-compat. While we are here, fix compat_do_readv_writev() so it checks for compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() negative return values. And also, fix a memory leak in compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov() error handling.
