commit a1193655 upstream. The following build error occured during a ia64 build with swap-over-NFS patches applied. net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: (near initialization for 'memalloc_socks') net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant This is identical to a parisc build error. Fengguang Wu, Mel Gorman and James Bottomley did all the legwork to track the root cause of the problem. This fix and entire commit log is shamelessly copied from them with one extra detail to change a dubious runtime use of ATOMIC_INIT() to atomic_set() in drivers/char/mspec.c Dave Anglin says: > Here is the line in sock.i: > > struct static_key memalloc_socks = ((struct static_key) { .enabled = > ((atomic_t) { (0) }) }); The above line contains two compound literals. It also uses a designated initializer to initialize the field enabled. A compound literal is not a constant expression. The location of the above statement isn't fully clear, but if a compound literal occurs outside the body of a function, the initializer list must consist of constant expressions. Signed-off-by:

commit 0f6f281b upstream. The downgrade of the 4 level page table created by init_new_context is currently done only in start_thread31. If a 31 bit process forks the new mm uses a 4 level page table, including the task size of 2<<42 that goes along with it. This is incorrect as now a 31 bit process can map memory beyond 2GB. Define arch_dup_mmap to do the downgrade after fork. Signed-off-by:

commit 6162552b upstream. We've got a bug report about the silent output from the headphone on a mobo with VT2021, and spotted out that this was because of the wrong D3 state on the DAC for the headphone output. The bug is triggered by the incomplete check for this DAC in set_widgets_power_state_vt1718S(). It checks only the connectivity of the primary output (0x27) but doesn't consider the path from the headphone pin (0x28). Now this patch fixes the problem by checking both pins for DAC 0x0b.

commit c0394506 upstream. The touchpad on the Acer Aspire One D250 will report out of range values in the extreme lower portion of the touchpad. These appear as abrupt changes in the values reported by the hardware from very low values to very high values, which can cause unexpected vertical jumps in the position of the mouse pointer. What seems to be happening is that the value is wrapping to a two's compliment negative value of higher resolution than the 13-bit value reported by the hardware, with the high-order bits being truncated. This patch adds handling for these values by converting them to the appropriate negative values. The only tricky part about this is deciding when to treat a number as negative. It stands to reason that if out of range values can be reported on the low end then it could also happen on the high end, so not all out of range values should be treated as negative. The approach taken here is to split the difference between the maximum legitimate value for the axis and the maximum possible value that the hardware can report, treating values greater than this number as negative and all other values as positive. This can be tweaked later if hardware is found that operates outside of these parameters. BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1001251Signed-off-by:

commit 6f7b0a2a upstream. If uaddr == uaddr2, then we have broken the rule of only requeueing from a non-pi futex to a pi futex with this call. If we attempt this, as the trinity test suite manages to do, we miss early wakeups as q.key is equal to key2 (because they are the same uaddr). We will then attempt to dereference the pi_mutex (which would exist had the futex_q been properly requeued to a pi futex) and trigger a NULL pointer dereference. Signed-off-by:

commit 9dccf55f upstream. The tamper evident features of the RTC include the "write counter" which is a pseudo-random number regenerated whenever we set the RTC. Since this value is unpredictable it should provide some useful seeding to the random number generator. Only do this on boot since the goal is to seed the pool rather than add useful entropy.

commit c2557a30 upstream. Create a new function, get_random_bytes_arch() which will use the architecture-specific hardware random number generator if it is present. Change get_random_bytes() to not use the HW RNG, even if it is avaiable. The reason for this is that the hw random number generator is fast (if it is present), but it requires that we trust the hardware manufacturer to have not put in a back door. (For example, an increasing counter encrypted by an AES key known to the NSA.) It's unlikely that Intel (for example) was paid off by the US Government to do this, but it's impossible for them to prove otherwise

commit e6d4947b upstream. If the CPU supports a hardware random number generator, use it in xfer_secondary_pool(), where it will significantly improve things and where we can afford it. Also, remove the use of the arch-specific rng in add_timer_randomness(), since the call is significantly slower than get_cycles(), and we're much better off using it in xfer_secondary_pool() anyway.

commit a2080a67 upstream. Add a new interface, add_device_randomness() for adding data to the random pool that is likely to differ between two devices (or possibly even per boot). This would be things like MAC addresses or serial numbers, or the read-out of the RTC. This does *not* add any actual entropy to the pool, but it initializes the pool to different values for devices that might otherwise be identical and have very little entropy available to them (particularly common in the embedded world). [ Modified by tytso to mix in a timestamp, since there may be some variability caused by the time needed to detect/configure the hardware in question. ] Signed-off-by:

commit 902c098a upstream. The real-time Linux folks don't like add_interrupt_randomness() taking a spinlock since it is called in the low-level interrupt routine. This also allows us to reduce the overhead in the fast path, for the random driver, which is the interrupt collection path. Signed-off-by:

commit 775f4b29 upstream. We've been moving away from add_interrupt_randomness() for various reasons: it's too expensive to do on every interrupt, and flooding the CPU with interrupts could theoretically cause bogus floods of entropy from a somewhat externally controllable source. This solves both problems by limiting the actual randomness addition to just once a second or after 64 interrupts, whicever comes first. During that time, the interrupt cycle data is buffered up in a per-cpu pool. Also, we make sure the the nonblocking pool used by urandom is initialized before we start feeding the normal input pool. This assures that /dev/urandom is returning unpredictable data as soon as possible. (Based on an original patch by Linus, but significantly modified by tytso.) Tested-by:

commit 2dac8e54 upstream. When we are initializing using arch_get_random_long() we only need to loop enough times to touch all the bytes in the buffer; using poolwords for that does twice the number of operations necessary on a 64-bit machine, since in the random number generator code "word" means 32 bits.

commit cf833d0b upstream. We still don't use rdrand in /dev/random, which just seems stupid. We accept the *cycle*counter* as a random input, but we don't accept rdrand? That's just broken. Sure, people can do things in user space (write to /dev/random, use rdrand in addition to /dev/random themselves etc etc), but that *still* seems to be a particularly stupid reason for saying "we shouldn't bother to try to do better in /dev/random". And even if somebody really doesn't trust rdrand as a source of random bytes, it seems singularly stupid to trust the cycle counter *more*. So I'd suggest the attached patch. I'm not going to even bother arguing that we should add more bits to the entropy estimate, because that's not the point - I don't care if /dev/random fills up slowly or not, I think it's just stupid to not use the bits we can get from rdrand and mix them into the strong randomness pool.

commit c6636005 upstream. Booting a 3.2, 3.3, or 3.4-rc4 kernel on an Atari using the `nfeth' ethernet device triggers a WARN_ONCE() in generic irq handling code on the first irq for that device: WARNING: at kernel/irq/handle.c:146 handle_irq_event_percpu+0x134/0x142() irq 3 handler nfeth_interrupt+0x0/0x194 enabled interrupts Modules linked in: Call Trace: [<000299b2>] warn_slowpath_common+0x48/0x6a [<000299c0>] warn_slowpath_common+0x56/0x6a [<00029a4c>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x2a/0x32 [<0005b34c>] handle_irq_event_percpu+0x134/0x142 [<0005b34c>] handle_irq_event_percpu+0x134/0x142 [<0000a584>] nfeth_interrupt+0x0/0x194 [<001ba0a8>] schedule_preempt_disabled+0x0/0xc [<0005b37a>] handle_irq_event+0x20/0x2c [<0005add4>] generic_handle_irq+0x2c/0x3a [<00002ab6>] do_IRQ+0x20/0x32 [<0000289e>] auto_irqhandler_fixup+0x4/0x6 [<00003144>] cpu_idle+0x22/0x2e [<001b8a78>] printk+0x0/0x18 [<0024d112>] start_kernel+0x37a/0x386 [<0003021d>] __do_proc_dointvec+0xb1/0x366 [<0003021d>] __do_proc_dointvec+0xb1/0x366 [<0024c31e>] _sinittext+0x31e/0x9c0 After invoking the irq's handler the kernel sees !irqs_disabled() and concludes that the handler erroneously enabled interrupts. However, debugging shows that !irqs_disabled() is true even before the handler is invoked, which indicates a problem in the platform code rather than the specific driver. The warning does not occur in 3.1 or older kernels. It turns out that the ALLOWINT definition for Atari is incorrect. The Atari definition of ALLOWINT is ~0x400, the stated purpose of that is to avoid taking HSYNC interrupts. irqs_disabled() returns true if the 3-bit ipl & 4 is non-zero. The nfeth interrupt runs at ipl 3 (it's autovector 3), but 3 & 4 is zero so irqs_disabled() is false, and the warning above is generated. When interrupts are explicitly disabled, ipl is set to 7. When they are enabled, ipl is masked with ALLOWINT. On Atari this will result in ipl = 3, which blocks interrupts at ipl 3 and below. So how come nfeth interrupts at ipl 3 are received at all? That's because ipl is reset to 2 by Atari-specific code in default_idle(), again with the stated purpose of blocking HSYNC interrupts. This discrepancy means that ipl 3 can remain blocked for longer than intended. Both default_idle() and falcon_hblhandler() identify HSYNC with ipl 2, and the "Atari ST/.../F030 Hardware Register Listing" agrees, but ALLOWINT is defined as if HSYNC was ipl 3. [As an experiment I modified default_idle() to reset ipl to 3, and as expected that resulted in all nfeth interrupts being blocked.] The fix is simple: define ALLOWINT as ~0x500 instead. This makes arch_local_irq_enable() consistent with default_idle(), and prevents the !irqs_disabled() problems for ipl 3 interrupts. Tested on Atari running in an Aranym VM. Signed-off-by:

partial of commit 8e8b41f9 upstream. As part of commit 463454b5 ("cfg80211: fix interface combinations check"), this extra check was introduced: if ((all_iftypes & used_iftypes) != used_iftypes) goto cont; However, most wireless NIC drivers did not advertise ADHOC in wiphy.iface_combinations[i].limits[] and hence we'll get -EBUSY when we bring up a ADHOC wlan with commands similar to: # iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc && ifconfig wlan0 up In commit 8e8b41f9 ("cfg80211: enforce lack of interface combinations"), the change below fixes the issue: if (total == 1) return 0; But it also introduces other dependencies for stable. For example, a full cherry pick of 8e8b41f9 would introduce additional regressions unless we also start cherry picking driver specific fixes like the following: 9b4760e3 ath5k: add possible wiphy interface combinations 1ae2fc25 mac80211_hwsim: advertise interface combinations 20c8e8dc ath9k: add possible wiphy interface combinations And the purpose of the 'if (total == 1)' is to cover the specific use case (IBSS, adhoc) that was mentioned above. So we just pick the specific part out from 8e8b41f9 here. Doing so gives stable kernels a way to fix the change introduced by 463454b5, without having to make cherry picks specific to various NIC drivers. Signed-off-by:

commit b9e0d95c upstream. When the frontend and the backend reside on the same domain, even if we add pages to the m2p_override, these pages will never be returned by mfn_to_pfn because the check "get_phys_to_machine(pfn) != mfn" will always fail, so the pfn of the frontend will be returned instead (resulting in a deadlock because the frontend pages are already locked).

A simplified call graph looks like this: pygrub QEMU ----------------------------------------------- do_read_cache_page io_submit | | lock_page ext3_direct_IO | bio_add_page | lock_page Internally the xen-blkback uses m2p_add_override to swizzle (temporarily) a 'struct page' to have a different MFN (so that it can point to another guest). It also can easily find out whether another pfn corresponding to the mfn exists in the m2p, and can set the FOREIGN bit in the p2m, making sure that mfn_to_pfn returns the pfn of the backend. This allows the backend to perform direct_IO on these pages, but as a side effect prevents the frontend from using get_user_pages_fast on them while they are being shared with the backend.

commit 3f9a5aab upstream. add_disk() takes gendisk reference on request queue. If driver failed during initialization and never called add_disk() then that extra reference is not taken. That reference is put in put_disk(). floppy driver allocates the disk, allocates queue, sets disk->queue and then relizes that floppy controller is not present. It tries to tear down everything and tries to put a reference down in put_disk() which was never taken. In such error cases cleanup disk->queue before calling put_disk() so that we never try to put down a reference which was never taken in first place. Reported-and-tested-by:

commit 8323f26c upstream Stefan reported a crash on a kernel before a3e5d109 ("sched: Don't call task_group() too many times in set_task_rq()"), he found the reason to be that the multiple task_group() invocations in set_task_rq() returned different values. Looking at all that I found a lack of serialization and plain wrong comments. The below tries to fix it using an extra pointer which is updated under the appropriate scheduler locks. Its not pretty, but I can't really see another way given how all the cgroup stuff works. Reported-and-tested-by:

However, those fields still have some meaning for UP, and keeping them allows some #ifdef removal from other files. The additional size of the UP kernel from this change is not significant enough to worry about keeping up the distinction: text data bss dec hex filename 4737168 506459 972040 6215667 5ed7f3 vmlinux.o.before 4737444 506459 972040 6215943 5ed907 vmlinux.o.after for a difference of 276 bytes for an example UP config. If someone wants those 276 bytes back badly then it should be implemented in a cleaner way. Signed-off-by:

commit dc32f634 upstream. Commit a6bc32b8 ("mm: compaction: introduce sync-light migration for use by compaction") changed the declaration of migrate_pages() and migrate_huge_pages(). But it missed changing the argument of migrate_huge_pages() in soft_offline_huge_page(). In this case, we should call migrate_huge_pages() with MIGRATE_SYNC. Additionally, there is a mismatch between type the of argument and the function declaration for migrate_pages(). Signed-off-by:

commit ce806a30 upstream. Linear copy works by adding the offset to the buffer address, which may end up not being 16-byte aligned. Some tests I've written for prime_pcopy show that the engine allows this correctly, so the restriction on lowest 4 bits of address can be lifted safely. The comments added were by envyas, I think because I used a newer version. Signed-off-by:

commit e9fbcb42 upstream. Each ordered operation has a free callback, and this was called with the worker spinlock held. Josef made the free callback also call iput, which we can't do with the spinlock. This drops the spinlock for the free operation and grabs it again before moving through the rest of the list. We'll circle back around to this and find a cleaner way that doesn't bounce the lock around so much. Signed-off-by:
