commit f823a2aa upstream. wlc_phy_txpower_get_current() does a logical OR of power->flags, which presumes that power.flags was initiliazed earlier by the caller, unfortunately, this is not the case, so make sure we zero out the struct tx_power before calling into wlc_phy_txpower_get_current().

commit a4e187d8 upstream. Before commit 778be232 ("NFS do not find client in NFSv4 pg_authenticate"), the Linux callback server replied with RPC_AUTH_ERROR / RPC_AUTH_BADCRED, instead of dropping the CB request. Let's restore that behavior so the server has a chance to do something useful about it, and provide a warning that helps admins correct the problem.

commit cdf8b463 upstream. AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH should be defined with the maximum number of NEW_AUX_ENT entries that ARCH_DLINFO can contain, but it wasn't defined for tile at all even though ARCH_DLINFO will contain one NEW_AUX_ENT for the VDSO address. This shouldn't be a problem as AT_VECTOR_SIZE_BASE includes space for AT_BASE_PLATFORM which tile doesn't use, but lets define it now and add the comment above ARCH_DLINFO as found in several other architectures to remind future modifiers of ARCH_DLINFO to keep AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH up to date.

commit 06dfe5cc upstream. SA1111 PCMCIA was broken when PCMCIA switched to using dev_pm_ops for the PCMCIA socket class. PCMCIA used to handle suspend/resume via the socket hosting device, which happened at normal device suspend/resume time. However, the referenced commit changed this: much of the resume now happens much earlier, in the noirq resume handler of dev_pm_ops. However, on SA1111, the PCMCIA device is not accessible as the SA1111 has not been resumed at _noirq time. It's slightly worse than that, because the SA1111 has already been put to sleep at _noirq time, so suspend doesn't work properly. Fix this by converting the core SA1111 code to use dev_pm_ops as well, and performing its own suspend/resume at noirq time. This fixes these errors in the kernel log: pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: time out after reset pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket1: time out after reset and the resulting lack of PCMCIA cards after a S2RAM cycle.

commit 305723ab upstream. Malta boards used with CPU emulators feature a switch to disable use of an IOCU. Software has to check this switch & ignore any present IOCU if the switch is closed. The read used to do this was unsafe for 64 bit kernels, as it simply casted the address 0xbf403000 to a pointer & dereferenced it. Whilst in a 32 bit kernel this would access kseg1, in a 64 bit kernel this attempts to access xuseg & results in an address error exception. Fix by accessing a correctly formed ckseg1 address generated using the CKSEG1ADDR macro. Whilst modifying this code, define the name of the register and the bit we care about within it, which indicates whether PCI DMA is routed to the IOCU or straight to DRAM. The code previously checked that bit 0 was also set, but the least significant 7 bits of the CONFIG_GEN0 register contain the value of the MReqInfo signal provided to the IOCU OCP bus, so singling out bit 0 makes little sense & that part of the check is dropped.

commit 3a402a70 upstream. When TIF_SINGLESTEP is set for a task, the single-step state machine is enabled and we must take care not to reset it to the active-not-pending state if it is already in the active-pending state. Unfortunately, that's exactly what user_enable_single_step does, by unconditionally setting the SS bit in the SPSR for the current task. This causes failures in the GDB testsuite, where GDB ends up missing expected step traps if the instruction being stepped generates another trap, e.g. PTRACE_EVENT_FORK from an SVC instruction. This patch fixes the problem by preserving the current state of the stepping state machine when TIF_SINGLESTEP is set on the current thread. Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Reported-by:

commit 117e5e9c upstream. If the bootloader uses the long descriptor format and jumps to kernel decompressor code, TTBCR may not be in a right state. Before enabling the MMU, it is required to clear the TTBCR.PD0 field to use TTBR0 for translation table walks. The commit dbece458 ("ARM: 7501/1: decompressor: reset ttbcr for VMSA ARMv7 cores") does the reset of TTBCR.N, but doesn't consider all the bits for the size of TTBCR.N. Clear TTBCR.PD0 field and reset all the three bits of TTBCR.N to indicate the use of TTBR0 and the correct base address width.

commit d5d0689a upstream. This fixes a pretty ancient bug that hasn't manifested itself until now. The scratchbuf for command queue is allocated only for 32 slots but is accessed with the queue write pointer - which can be up to 256. Since the scratch buf size was 16 and there are up to 256 TFDs we never passed a page boundary when accessing the scratch buffer, but when attempting to increase the size of the scratch buffer a panic was quick to follow when trying to access the address resulted in a page boundary.

commit ba6dea4f upstream. Whilst MPIDR values themselves are less than 32 bits, it is still perfectly valid for a DT to have #address-cells > 1 in the CPUs node, resulting in the "reg" property having leading zero cell(s). In that situation, the big-endian nature of the data conspires with the current behaviour of only reading the first cell to cause the kernel to think all CPUs have ID 0, and become resoundingly unhappy as a consequence. Take the full property length into account when parsing CPUs so as to be correct under any circumstances. Cc: Russell King <linux@armlinux.org.uk> Signed-off-by:

commit 9abefcb1 upstream. A timer was used to restart after the bus-off state, leading to a relatively large can_restart() executed in an interrupt context, which in turn sets up pinctrl. When this happens during system boot, there is a high probability of grabbing the pinctrl_list_mutex, which is locked already by the probe() of other device, making the kernel suspect a deadlock condition [1]. To resolve this issue, the restart_timer is replaced by a delayed work. [1] https://github.com/victronenergy/venus/issues/24Signed-off-by:

There is no way forward because the oom victim cannot release any memory in 4.1 based kernel. Since 4.6 we have the oom reaper which would solve this problem because it would release the memory asynchronously. Nevertheless we can relax alloc_rmap_item requirements and use __GFP_NORETRY because the allocation failure is acceptable as ksm_do_scan would just retry later after the lock got dropped. Such a patch would be also easy to backport to older stable kernels which do not have oom_reaper. While we are at it add GFP_NOWARN so the admin doesn't have to be alarmed by the allocation failure.

commit f6d7c1b5 upstream. This fixes subpage writes when using 4-bit HW ECC. There has been numerous reports about ECC errors with devices using this driver for a while. Also the 4-bit ECC has been reported as broken with subpages in [1] and with 16 bits NANDs in the driver and in mach* board files both in mainline and in the vendor BSPs. What I saw with 4-bit ECC on a 16bits NAND (on an LCDK) which got me to try reinitializing the ECC engine: - R/W on whole pages properly generates/checks RS code - try writing the 1st subpage only of a blank page, the subpage is well written and the RS code properly generated, re-reading the same page the HW detects some ECC error, reading the same page again no ECC error is detected Note that the ECC engine is already reinitialized in the 1-bit case. Tested on my LCDK with UBI+UBIFS using subpages. This could potentially get rid of the issue workarounded in [1].

commit e8a4fd0a upstream. The encoding of the lengths in the ibm_architecture_vec array is "interesting" to say the least. It's non-obvious how the number of bytes we provide relates to the length value. In fact we already got it wrong once, see 11e9ed43 "Fix up ibm_architecture_vec definition". So add some macros to make it (hopefully) clearer. These at least have the property that the integer present in the code is equal to the number of bytes that follows it. Signed-off-by:

commit 735f2770 upstream. Commit fec1d011 ("[PATCH] Disable CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID for abnormal exit") has caused a subtle regression in nscd which uses CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID to clear the nscd_certainly_running flag in the shared databases, so that the clients are notified when nscd is restarted. Now, when nscd uses a non-persistent database, clients that have it mapped keep thinking the database is being updated by nscd, when in fact nscd has created a new (anonymous) one (for non-persistent databases it uses an unlinked file as backend). The original proposal for the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID change claimed (https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/25/233): : The NPTL library uses the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID flag on clone() syscalls : on behalf of pthread_create() library calls. This feature is used to : request that the kernel clear the thread-id in user space (at an address : provided in the syscall) when the thread disassociates itself from the : address space, which is done in mm_release(). : : Unfortunately, when a multi-threaded process incurs a core dump (such as : from a SIGSEGV), the core-dumping thread sends SIGKILL signals to all of : the other threads, which then proceed to clear their user-space tids : before synchronizing in exit_mm() with the start of core dumping. This : misrepresents the state of process's address space at the time of the : SIGSEGV and makes it more difficult for someone to debug NPTL and glibc : problems (misleading him/her to conclude that the threads had gone away : before the fault). : : The fix below is to simply avoid the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID action if a : core dump has been initiated. The resulting patch from Roland (https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/26/269) seems to have a larger scope than the original patch asked for. It seems that limitting the scope of the check to core dumping should work for SIGSEGV issue describe above.

commit 3254de6b upstream. Not doing so might cause IO-Page-Faults when a device uses an alias request-id and the alias-dte is left in a lower page-mode which does not cover the address allocated from the iova-allocator. Fixes: 492667da ('x86/amd-iommu: Remove amd_iommu_pd_table') Signed-off-by:

commit 205e1e25 upstream. Matt reported that we have a NULL pointer dereference in ppp_pernet() from ppp_connect_channel(), i.e. pch->chan_net is NULL. This is due to that a parallel ppp_unregister_channel() could happen while we are in ppp_connect_channel(), during which pch->chan_net set to NULL. Since we need a reference to net per channel, it makes sense to sync the refcnt with the life time of the channel, therefore we should release this reference when we destroy it. Fixes: 1f461dcd ("ppp: take reference on channels netns") Reported-by:

commit 4fa9a3f6 upstream. This struct is unused, which is now a build error with gcc 6: error: 'os_area_db_id_video_mode' defined but not used There doesn't seem to be any good reason to keep it around so remove it, it's in the history if anyone needs it. Signed-off-by:

commit 135e8c92 upstream. The origin of the issue I've seen is related to a missing memory barrier between check for task->state and the check for task->on_rq. The task being woken up is already awake from a schedule() and is doing the following: do { schedule() set_current_state(TASK_(UN)INTERRUPTIBLE); } while (!cond); The waker, actually gets stuck doing the following in try_to_wake_up(): while (p->on_cpu) cpu_relax(); Analysis: The instance I've seen involves the following race: CPU1 CPU2 while () { if (cond) break; do { schedule(); set_current_state(TASK_UN..) } while (!cond); wakeup_routine() spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock) raw_spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock) wake_up_process() } try_to_wake_up() set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING); .. list_del(&waiter.list); CPU2 wakes up CPU1, but before it can get the wait_lock and set current state to TASK_RUNNING the following occurs: CPU3 wakeup_routine() raw_spin_lock_irqsave(wait_lock) if (!list_empty) wake_up_process() try_to_wake_up() raw_spin_lock_irqsave(p->pi_lock) .. if (p->on_rq && ttwu_wakeup()) .. while (p->on_cpu) cpu_relax() .. CPU3 tries to wake up the task on CPU1 again since it finds it on the wait_queue, CPU1 is spinning on wait_lock, but immediately after CPU2, CPU3 got it. CPU3 checks the state of p on CPU1, it is TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and the task is spinning on the wait_lock. Interestingly since p->on_rq is checked under pi_lock, I've noticed that try_to_wake_up() finds p->on_rq to be 0. This was the most confusing bit of the analysis, but p->on_rq is changed under runqueue lock, rq_lock, the p->on_rq check is not reliable without this fix IMHO. The race is visible (based on the analysis) only when ttwu_queue() does a remote wakeup via ttwu_queue_remote. In which case the p->on_rq change is not done uder the pi_lock. The result is that after a while the entire system locks up on the raw_spin_irqlock_save(wait_lock) and the holder spins infintely Reproduction of the issue: The issue can be reproduced after a long run on my system with 80 threads and having to tweak available memory to very low and running memory stress-ng mmapfork test. It usually takes a long time to reproduce. I am trying to work on a test case that can reproduce the issue faster, but thats work in progress. I am still testing the changes on my still in a loop and the tests seem OK thus far. Big thanks to Benjamin and Nick for helping debug this as well. Ben helped catch the missing barrier, Nick caught every missing bit in my theory. Signed-off-by:
