[ Upstream commit be0b5e63 ] Transmission of an AP beacon does not call the TX interrupt service routine, which usually does the cleanup. Instead, cleanup is handled in a tasklet completion routine. Unfortunately, this routine has a serious bug in that it does not release the DMA mapping before it frees the skb, thus one IOMMU mapping is leaked for each beacon. The test system failed with no free IOMMU mapping slots approximately one hour after hostapd was used to start an AP. This issue was reported and tested at https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new/issues/30. Reported-and-tested-by:

[ Upstream commit 71684406 ] Device domains never span IOMMU hardware units, which allows the domain ID space for each IOMMU to be an independent address space. Therefore we can have multiple, independent domains, each with the same domain->id, but attached to different hardware units. This is also why we need to do a heavy-weight search for VM domains since they can span multiple IOMMUs hardware units and we don't require a single global ID to use for all hardware units. Therefore, if we call iommu_detach_domain() across all active IOMMU hardware units for a non-VM domain, the result is that we clear domain IDs that are not associated with our domain, allowing them to be re-allocated and causing apparent coherency issues when the device cannot access IOVAs for the intended domain. This bug was introduced in commit fb170fb4 ("iommu/vt-d: Introduce helper functions to make code symmetric for readability"), but is significantly exacerbated by the more recent commit 62c22167 ("iommu/vt-d: Fix dmar_domain leak in iommu_attach_device") which calls domain_exit() more frequently to resolve a domain leak.

[ Upstream commit 8e4934c6 ] When the receiver was enabled during startup, a character could have been in the FIFO when the UART get initially used. The driver configures the (receive) watermark level, and flushes the FIFO. However, the receive flag (RDRF) could still be set at that stage (as mentioned in the register description of UARTx_RWFIFO). This leads to an interrupt which won't be handled properly in interrupt mode: The receive interrupt function lpuart_rxint checks the FIFO count, which is 0 at that point (due to the flush during initialization). The problem does not manifest when using DMA to receive characters. Fix this situation by explicitly read the status register, which leads to clearing of the RDRF flag. Due to the flush just after the status flag read, a explicit data read is not to required. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 4e8f2459 ] Specify transmit FIFO size which might be different depending on LPUART instance. This makes sure uart_wait_until_sent in serial core getting called, which in turn waits and checks if the FIFO is really empty on shutdown by using the tx_empty callback. Without the call of this callback, the last several characters might not yet be transmitted when closing the serial port. This can be reproduced by simply using echo and redirect the output to a ttyLP device. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 227a4fd8 ] When a device with an isochronous endpoint is plugged into the Intel xHCI host controller, and the driver submits multiple frames per URB, the xHCI driver will set the Block Event Interrupt (BEI) flag on all but the last TD for the URB. This causes the host controller to place an event on the event ring, but not send an interrupt. When the last TD for the URB completes, BEI is cleared, and we get an interrupt for the whole URB. However, under Intel xHCI host controllers, if the event ring is full of events from transfers with BEI set, an "Event Ring is Full" event will be posted to the last entry of the event ring, but no interrupt is generated. Host will cease all transfer and command executions and wait until software completes handling the pending events in the event ring. That means xHC stops, but event of "event ring is full" is not notified. As the result, the xHC looks like dead to user. This patch is to apply XHCI_AVOID_BEI quirk to Intel xHC devices. And it should be backported to kernels as old as 3.0, that contains the commit 69e848c2 ("Intel xhci: Support EHCI/xHCI port switching."). Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 9425183d ] Linux xHCI driver doesn't report and handle port cofig error change. If Port Configure Error for root hub port occurs, CEC bit in PORTSC would be set by xHC and remains 1. This happends when the root port fails to configure its link partner, e.g. the port fails to exchange port capabilities information using Port Capability LMPs. Then the Port Status Change Events will be blocked until all status change bits(CEC is one of the change bits) are cleared('0') (refer to xHCI spec 4.19.2). Otherwise, the port status change event for this root port will not be generated anymore, then root port would look like dead for user and can't be recovered until a Host Controller Reset(HCRST). This patch is to check CEC bit in PORTSC in xhci_get_port_status() and set a Config Error in the return status if CEC is set. This will cause a ClearPortFeature request, where CEC bit is cleared in xhci_clear_port_change_bit().

[ Upstream commit d75e4af1 ] Thomas Schlichter reports the following issue on his Samsung NC20: "The C-states C1 and C2 to the OS when connected to AC, and additionally provides the C3 C-state when disconnected from AC. However, the number of C-states shown in sysfs is fixed to the number of C-states present at boot. If I boot with AC connected, I always only see the C-states up to C2 even if I disconnect AC. The reason is commit 130a5f69 (ACPI / cpuidle: remove dev->state_count setting). It removes the update of dev->state_count, but sysfs uses exactly this variable to show the C-states. The fix is to use drv->state_count in sysfs. As this is currently the last user of dev->state_count, this variable can be completely removed." Remove dev->state_count as per the above. Reported-by:

[ Upstream commit 555828ef ] Return EPROBE_DEFER if Regulator returns EPROBE_DEFER If the Flexcan driver is built into kernel and a regulator is used to enable the CAN transceiver, the Flexcan driver may not use the regulator. When initializing the Flexcan device with a regulator defined in the device tree, but not initialized, the regulator subsystem returns EPROBE_DEFER, hence the Flexcan init fails. The solution for this is to return EPROBE_DEFER if regulator is not initialized and wait until the regulator is initialized. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 80313b30 ] The ASRock Q1900DC-ITX mainboard (Baytrail-D) hangs randomly in both BIOS and UEFI mode while rebooting unless reboot=pci is used. Add a quirk to reboot via the pci method. The problem is very intermittent and hard to debug, it might succeed rebooting just fine 40 times in a row - but fails half a dozen times the next day. It seems to be slightly less common in BIOS CSM mode than native UEFI (with the CSM disabled), but it does happen in either mode. Since I've started testing this patch in late january, rebooting has been 100% reliable. Most of the time it already hangs during POST, but occasionally it might even make it through the bootloader and the kernel might even start booting, but then hangs before the mode switch. The same symptoms occur with grub-efi, gummiboot and grub-pc, just as well as (at least) kernel 3.16-3.19 and 4.0-rc6 (I haven't tried older kernels than 3.16). Upgrading to the most current mainboard firmware of the ASRock Q1900DC-ITX, version 1.20, does not improve the situation. ( Searching the web seems to suggest that other Bay Trail-D mainboards might be affected as well. ) -- Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 02d88b73 ] In omap_dma_start_desc the vdesc->node is removed from the virt-dma framework managed lists (to be precise from the desc_issued list). If a terminate_all comes before the transfer finishes the omap_desc will not be freed up because it is not in any of the lists and we stopped the DMA channel so the transfer will not going to complete. There is no special sequence for leaking memory when using cyclic (audio) transfer: with every start and stop of a cyclic transfer the driver leaks struct omap_desc worth of memory. Free up the allocated memory directly in omap_dma_terminate_all() since the framework will not going to do that for us. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 5ca9e7ce ] If edma_terminate_all() was called while a transfer was running (i.e. after edma_execute() but before edma_callback()) the echan->edesc was not freed. This was due to the fact that a running transfer is on none of the vchan lists: desc_submitted, desc_issued, desc_completed (edma_execute() removes it from the desc_issued list), so the vchan_dma_desc_free_list() called at the end of edma_terminate_all() didn't find it and didn't free it. This bug was found on an AM1808 based hardware (very similar to da850evm, however using the second MMC/SD controller), where intense operations on the SD card wasted the device 128MB RAM within a couple of days. Peter Ujfalusi: The issue is even more severe since it affects cyclic (audio) transfers as well. In this case starting/stopping audio will results memory leak. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit f54e9f2b ] Depending on conversion mode used, the ADC clock (ADCK) needs to be below a maximum frequency. According to Vybrid's data sheet this is 20MHz for the low power conversion mode. The ADC clock is depending on input clock, which is the bus clock by default. Vybrid SoC are typically clocked at at 400MHz or 500MHz, which leads to 66MHz or 83MHz bus clock respectively. Hence, a divider of 8 is required to stay below the specified maximum clock of 20MHz. Due to the different bus clock speeds, the resulting sampling frequency is not static. Hence use the ADC clock and calculate the actual available sampling frequency dynamically. This fixes bogous values observed on some 500MHz clocked Vybrid SoC. The resulting value usually showed Bit 9 being stuck at 1, or 0, which lead to a value of +/-512. Signed-off-by:

While unlikely, since the above patch, the newer value may be lower than the recorded past value and underflow the bandwidth calculation leading to a wild result. Fix it by subtracing min of the old and new values when calculating delta. AFAIK, there hasn't been any report of it happening but the resulting erratic behavior would be non-critical and temporary, so it's possible that the issue is happening without being reported. The risk of the fix is very low, so tagged for -stable. Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 7d70e154 ] global_update_bandwidth() uses static variable update_time as the timestamp for the last update but forgets to initialize it to INITIALIZE_JIFFIES. This means that global_dirty_limit will be 5 mins into the future on 32bit and some large amount jiffies into the past on 64bit. This isn't critical as the only effect is that global_dirty_limit won't be updated for the first 5 mins after booting on 32bit machines, especially given the auxiliary nature of global_dirty_limit's role - protecting against global dirty threshold's sudden dips; however, it does lead to unintended suboptimal behavior.

[ Upstream commit c75de0ac ] All CPUs leaving the first-online CPU are hotplugged out on suspend and and cpufreq core stops managing them. On resume, we need to call cpufreq_update_policy() for this CPU's policy to make sure its frequency is in sync with cpufreq's cached value, as it might have got updated by hardware during suspend/resume. The policies are always added to the top of the policy-list. So, in normal circumstances, CPU 0's policy will be the last one in the list. And so the code checks for the last policy. But there are cases where it will fail. Consider quad-core system, with policy-per core. If CPU0 is hotplugged out and added back again, the last policy will be on CPU1 :( To fix this in a proper way, always look for the policy of the first online CPU. That way we will be sure that we are calling cpufreq_update_policy() for the only CPU that wasn't hotplugged out.

[ Upstream commit 746db944 ] When non-realtime tasks get priority-inheritance boosted to a realtime scheduling class, RLIMIT_RTTIME starts to apply to them. However, the counter used for checking this (the same one used for SCHED_RR timeslices) was not getting reset. This meant that tasks running with a non-realtime scheduling class which are repeatedly boosted to a realtime one, but never block while they are running realtime, eventually hit the timeout without ever running for a time over the limit. This patch resets the realtime timeslice counter when un-PI-boosting from an RT to a non-RT scheduling class. I have some test code with two threads and a shared PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT mutex which induces priority boosting and spins while boosted that gets killed by a SIGXCPU on non-fixed kernels but doesn't with this patch applied.

[ Upstream commit cfa86943 ] Commit 3c605096 ("mm/page_alloc: restrict max order of merging on isolated pageblock") changed the logic of unset_migratetype_isolate to check the buddy allocator and explicitly call __free_pages to merge. The page that is being freed in this path never had prep_new_page called so set_page_refcounted is called explicitly but there is no call to kernel_map_pages. With the default kernel_map_pages this is mostly harmless but if kernel_map_pages does any manipulation of the page tables (unmapping or setting pages to read only) this may trigger a fault: alloc_contig_range test_pages_isolated(ceb00, ced00) failed Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffffffc0cec00000 pgd = ffffffc045fc4000 [ffffffc0cec00000] *pgd=0000000000000000 Internal error: Oops: 9600004f [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: exfatfs CPU: 1 PID: 23237 Comm: TimedEventQueue Not tainted 3.10.49-gc72ad36-dirty #1 task: ffffffc03de52100 ti: ffffffc015388000 task.ti: ffffffc015388000 PC is at memset+0xc8/0x1c0 LR is at kernel_map_pages+0x1ec/0x244 Fix this by calling kernel_map_pages to ensure the page is set in the page table properly Fixes: 3c605096 ("mm/page_alloc: restrict max order of merging on isolated pageblock") Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 3fe89b3e ] I have constantly stumbled upon "kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!" after upgrading to 3.19 and had no luck with 4.0-rc1 neither. So, after looking into new logic introduced by commit 7a3ef208 ("mm: prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy"), I found chances are that unlink_anon_vmas() is called without incrementing dst->anon_vma->degree in anon_vma_clone() due to allocation failure. If dst->anon_vma is not NULL in error path, its degree will be incorrectly decremented in unlink_anon_vmas() and eventually underflow when exiting as a result of another call to unlink_anon_vmas(). That's how "kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!" is triggered for me. This patch fixes the underflow by dropping dst->anon_vma when allocation fails. It's safe to do so regardless of original value of dst->anon_vma because dst->anon_vma doesn't have valid meaning if anon_vma_clone() fails. Besides, callers don't care dst->anon_vma in such case neither. Also suggested by Michal Hocko, we can clean up vma_adjust() a bit as anon_vma_clone() now does the work.

[ Upstream commit b800c91a ] Fix for BUG_ON(anon_vma->degree) splashes in unlink_anon_vmas() ("kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!") caused by commit 7a3ef208 ("mm: prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy") Anon_vma_clone() is usually called for a copy of source vma in destination argument. If source vma has anon_vma it should be already in dst->anon_vma. NULL in dst->anon_vma is used as a sign that it's called from anon_vma_fork(). In this case anon_vma_clone() finds anon_vma for reusing. Vma_adjust() calls it differently and this breaks anon_vma reusing logic: anon_vma_clone() links vma to old anon_vma and updates degree counters but vma_adjust() overrides vma->anon_vma right after that. As a result final unlink_anon_vmas() decrements degree for wrong anon_vma. This patch assigns ->anon_vma before calling anon_vma_clone(). Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit 7a3ef208 ] Constantly forking task causes unlimited grow of anon_vma chain. Each next child allocates new level of anon_vmas and links vma to all previous levels because pages might be inherited from any level. This patch adds heuristic which decides to reuse existing anon_vma instead of forking new one. It adds counter anon_vma->degree which counts linked vmas and directly descending anon_vmas and reuses anon_vma if counter is lower than two. As a result each anon_vma has either vma or at least two descending anon_vmas. In such trees half of nodes are leafs with alive vmas, thus count of anon_vmas is no more than two times bigger than count of vmas. This heuristic reuses anon_vmas as few as possible because each reuse adds false aliasing among vmas and rmap walker ought to scan more ptes when it searches where page is might be mapped.

[ Upstream commit 788211d8 ] There's an issue with the way the RX A-MPDU reorder timer is deleted that can cause a kernel crash like this: * tid_rx is removed - call_rcu(ieee80211_free_tid_rx) * station is destroyed * reorder timer fires before ieee80211_free_tid_rx() runs, accessing the station, thus potentially crashing due to the use-after-free The station deletion is protected by synchronize_net(), but that isn't enough -- ieee80211_free_tid_rx() need not have run when that returns (it deletes the timer.) We could use rcu_barrier() instead of synchronize_net(), but that's much more expensive. Instead, to fix this, add a field tracking that the session is being deleted. In this case, the only re-arming of the timer happens with the reorder spinlock held, so make that code not rearm it if the session is being deleted and also delete the timer after setting that field. This ensures the timer cannot fire after ___ieee80211_stop_rx_ba_session() returns, which fixes the problem. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by:

[ Upstream commit fea559f3 ] Implement arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() for powerpc Commit 9b01f5bf introduced a dependency on "IRQ work self-IPIs" for full dynamic ticks to be enabled, by expecting architectures to implement a suitable arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() routine. Several arches have implemented this routine, including x86 (3010279f) and arm (09f6edd4), but powerpc was omitted. This patch implements this routine for powerpc. The symptom, at boot (on powerpc systems) with "nohz_full=<CPU list>" is displayed: NO_HZ: Can't run full dynticks because arch doesn't support irq work self-IPIs after this patch: NO_HZ: Full dynticks CPUs: <CPU list>. Tested against 3.19. powerpc implements "IRQ work self-IPIs" by setting the decrementer to 1 in arch_irq_work_raise(), which causes a decrementer exception on the next timebase tick. We then handle the work in __timer_interrupt(). CC: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by:
