Julia reported that the document looked unfinished, and it is. I forgot to include the example cooked up by Paul here: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170731174345.GL3730@linux.vnet.ibm.com and I added an explicit example showing how, while it is an ACQUIRE pattern, it really does provide an MB.

The new completion/crossrelease annotations interact unfavourable with the extant flush_work()/flush_workqueue() annotations. The problem is that when a single work class does: wait_for_completion(&C) and complete(&C) in different executions, we'll build dependencies like: lock_map_acquire(W) complete_acquire(C) and lock_map_acquire(W) complete_release(C) which results in the dependency chain: W->C->W, which lockdep thinks spells deadlock, even though there is no deadlock potential since works are ran concurrently. One possibility would be to change the work 'lock' to recursive-read, but that would mean hitting a lockdep limitation on recursive locks. Also, unconditinoally switching to recursive-read here would fail to detect the actual deadlock on single-threaded workqueues, which do have a problem with this. For now, forcefully disregard these locks for crossrelease.

The flush_work() annotation as introduced by commit: e159489b ("workqueue: relax lockdep annotation on flush_work()") hits on the lockdep problem with recursive read locks. The situation as described is: Work W1: Work W2: Task: ARR(Q) ARR(Q) flush_workqueue(Q) A(W1) A(W2) A(Q) flush_work(W2) R(Q) A(W2) R(W2) if (special) A(Q) else ARR(Q) R(Q) where: A - acquire, ARR - acquire-read-recursive, R - release. Where under 'special' conditions we want to trigger a lock recursion deadlock, but otherwise allow the flush_work(). The allowing is done by using recursive read locks (ARR), but lockdep is broken for recursive stuff. However, there appears to be no need to acquire the lock if we're not 'special', so if we remove the 'else' clause things become much simpler and no longer need the recursion thing at all.

The implementation of TIOCGPTPEER has two issues. When /dev/ptmx (as opposed to /dev/pts/ptmx) is opened the wrong vfsmount is passed to dentry_open. Which results in the kernel displaying the wrong pathname for the peer. The second is simply by caching the vfsmount and dentry of the peer it leaves them open, in a way they were not previously Which because of the inreased reference counts can cause unnecessary behaviour differences resulting in regressions. To fix these move the ioctl into tty_io.c at a generic level allowing the ioctl to have access to the struct file on which the ioctl is being called. This allows the path of the slave to be derived when opening the slave through TIOCGPTPEER instead of requiring the path to the slave be cached. Thus removing the need for caching the path. A new function devpts_ptmx_path is factored out of devpts_acquire and used to implement a function devpts_mntget. The new function devpts_mntget takes a filp to perform the lookup on and fsi so that it can confirm that the superblock that is found by devpts_ptmx_path is the proper superblock. v2: Lots of fixes to make the code actually work v3: Suggestions by Linus - Removed the unnecessary initialization of filp in ptm_open_peer - Simplified devpts_ptmx_path as gotos are no longer required [ This is the fix for the issue that was reverted in commit 143c97cc, but this time without breaking 'pbuilder' due to increased reference counts - Linus ] Fixes: 54ebbfb1 ("tty: add TIOCGPTPEER ioctl") Reported-by: Christian Brauner <christian.brauner@canonical.com> Reported-and-tested-by: Stefan Lippers-Hollmann <s.l-h@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Commit 44c58487 ("IB/core: Define 'ib' and 'roce' rdma_ah_attr types") introduced the concept of type in ah_attr: * During ib_register_device, each port is checked for its type which is stored in ib_device's port_immutable array. * During uverbs' modify_qp, the type is inferred using the port number in ib_uverbs_qp_dest struct (address vector) by accessing the relevant port_immutable array and the type is passed on to providers. IB spec (version 1.3) enforces a valid port value only in Reset to Init. During Init to RTR, the address vector must be valid but port number is not mentioned as a field in the address vector, so its value is not validated, which leads to accesses to a non-allocated memory when inferring the port type. Save the real port number in ib_qp during modify to Init (when the comp_mask indicates that the port number is valid) and use this value to infer the port type. Avoid copying the address vector fields if the matching bit is not set in the attr_mask. Address vector can't be modified before the port, so no valid flow is affected.

This fixes several instances of blk_status_t and bare errno ints being mixed up, some of which are real bugs. In the normal case, 0 matches BLK_STS_OK, so we don't observe any effects of the missing conversion, but in case of errors or passes through the repair/retry paths, the errors get mixed up. The changes were identified using 'sparse', we don't have reports of the buggy behaviour.

There's a small race when function graph shutsdown and the calling of the registered function graph entry callback. The callback must not reference the task's ret_stack without first checking that it is not NULL. Note, when a ret_stack is allocated for a task, it stays allocated until the task exits. The problem here, is that function_graph is shutdown, and a new task was created, which doesn't have its ret_stack allocated. But since some of the functions are still being traced, the callbacks can still be called. The normal function_graph code handles this, but starting with commit 8861dd30 ("ftrace: Access ret_stack->subtime only in the function profiler") the profiler code references the ret_stack on function entry, but doesn't check if it is NULL first.

This reverts commit c8c03f18. It turns out that while fixing the ptmx file descriptor to have the correct 'struct path' to the associated slave pty is a really good thing, it breaks some user space tools for a very annoying reason. The problem is that /dev/ptmx and its associated slave pty (/dev/pts/X) are on different mounts. That was what caused us to have the wrong path in the first place (we would mix up the vfsmount of the 'ptmx' node, with the dentry of the pty slave node), but it also means that now while we use the right vfsmount, having the pty master open also keeps the pts mount busy. And it turn sout that that makes 'pbuilder' very unhappy, as noted by Stefan Lippers-Hollmann: "This patch introduces a regression for me when using pbuilder 0.228.7[2] (a helper to build Debian packages in a chroot and to create and update its chroots) when trying to umount /dev/ptmx (inside the chroot) on Debian/ unstable (full log and pbuilder configuration file[3] attached). [...] Setting up build-essential (12.3) ... Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.24-15) ... I: unmounting dev/ptmx filesystem W: Could not unmount dev/ptmx: umount: /var/cache/pbuilder/build/1340/dev/ptmx: target is busy (In some cases useful info about processes that use the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1).)" apparently pbuilder tries to unmount the /dev/pts filesystem while still holding at least one master node open, which is arguably not very nice, but we don't break user space even when fixing other bugs. So this commit has to be reverted. I'll try to figure out a way to avoid caching the path to the slave pty in the master pty. The only thing that actually wants that slave pty path is the "TIOCGPTPEER" ioctl, and I think we could just recreate the path at that time.

CEC support was added for Exynos5 in 4.13, but for the Odroids we need to set 'needs-hpd' as well since CEC is disabled when there is no HDMI hotplug signal, just as for the exynos4 Odroid-U3. This is due to the level-shifter that is disabled when there is no HPD, thus blocking the CEC signal as well. Same close-but-no-cigar board design as the Odroid-U3. Tested with my Odroid XU4.

Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon: "Late arm64 fixes. They fix very early boot failures with KASLR where the early mapping of the kernel is incorrect, so the failure mode looks like a hang with no output. There's also a signal-handling fix when a uaccess routine faults with a fatal signal pending, which could be used to create unkillable user tasks using userfaultfd and finally a state leak fix for the floating pointer registers across a call to exec(). We're still seeing some random issues crop up (inode memory corruption and spinlock recursion) but we've not managed to reproduce things reliably enough to debug or bisect them yet.

My previous patch fixed a link error for all at91 platforms when CONFIG_ARM_CPU_SUSPEND was not set, however this caused another problem on a configuration that enabled CONFIG_ARCH_AT91 but none of the individual SoCs, and that also enabled CPU_ARM720 as the only CPU: warning: (ARCH_AT91 && SOC_IMX23 && SOC_IMX28 && ARCH_PXA && MACH_MVEBU_V7 && SOC_IMX6 && ARCH_OMAP3 && ARCH_OMAP4 && SOC_OMAP5 && SOC_AM33XX && SOC_DRA7XX && ARCH_EXYNOS3 && ARCH_EXYNOS4 && EXYNOS5420_MCPM && EXYNOS_CPU_SUSPEND && ARCH_VEXPRESS_TC2_PM && ARM_BIG_LITTLE_CPUIDLE && ARM_HIGHBANK_CPUIDLE && QCOM_PM) selects ARM_CPU_SUSPEND which has unmet direct dependencies (ARCH_SUSPEND_POSSIBLE) arch/arm/kernel/sleep.o: In function `cpu_resume': (.text+0xf0): undefined reference to `cpu_arm720_suspend_size' arch/arm/kernel/suspend.o: In function `__cpu_suspend_save': suspend.c:(.text+0x134): undefined reference to `cpu_arm720_do_suspend' This improves the hack some more by only selecting ARM_CPU_SUSPEND for the part that requires it, and changing pm.c to drop the contents of unused init functions so we no longer refer to cpu_resume on at91 platforms that don't need it.

acpi_graph_get_child_prop_value() is intended to find a child node with a certain property value pair. The check if (!fwnode_property_read_u32(fwnode, prop_name, &nr)) continue; is faulty: fwnode_property_read_u32() returns zero on success, not on failure, leading to comparing values only if the searched property was not found. Moreover, the check is made against the parent device node instead of the child one as it should be.

Commit 2d2a9543 (ACPICA: Update two error messages to emit control method name) causes acpi_evaluate_object_typed() to fail if its pathname argument is NULL, but some callers of that function in the kernel, particularly acpi_nondev_subnode_data_ok(), pass NULL as pathname to it and expect it to work. For this reason, make acpi_evaluate_object_typed() check if its pathname argument is NULL and fall back to using the pathname of its handle argument if that is the case.

With 16KB pages and a kernel Image larger than 16MB, the current kaslr_early_init() logic for avoiding mappings across swapper table boundaries fails since increasing the offset by kimg_sz just moves the problem to the next boundary. This patch rounds the offset down to (1 << SWAPPER_TABLE_SHIFT) if the Image crosses a PMD_SIZE boundary.

In the KASLR setup routine, we ensure that the early virtual mapping of the kernel image does not cover more than a single table entry at the level above the swapper block level, so that the assembler routines involved in setting up this mapping can remain simple. In this calculation we add the proposed KASLR offset to the values of the _text and _end markers, and reject it if they would end up falling in different swapper table sized windows. However, when taking the addresses of _text and _end, the modulo offset (the physical displacement modulo 2 MB) is already accounted for, and so adding it again results in incorrect results. So disregard the modulo offset from the calculation. Fixes: 08cdac61 ("arm64: relocatable: deal with physically misaligned ...")

When there's a fatal signal pending, arm64's do_page_fault() implementation returns 0. The intent is that we'll return to the faulting userspace instruction, delivering the signal on the way. However, if we take a fatal signal during fixing up a uaccess, this results in a return to the faulting kernel instruction, which will be instantly retried, resulting in the same fault being taken forever. As the task never reaches userspace, the signal is not delivered, and the task is left unkillable. While the task is stuck in this state, it can inhibit the forward progress of the system. To avoid this, we must ensure that when a fatal signal is pending, we apply any necessary fixup for a faulting kernel instruction. Thus we will return to an error path, and it is up to that code to make forward progress towards delivering the fatal signal.

There are some tricky dependencies between the different stages of flushing the FPSIMD register state during exec, and these can race with context switch in ways that can cause the old task's regs to leak across. In particular, a context switch during the memset() can cause some of the task's old FPSIMD registers to reappear. Disabling preemption for this small window would be no big deal for performance: preemption is already disabled for similar scenarios like updating the FPSIMD registers in sigreturn. So, instead of rearranging things in ways that might swap existing subtle bugs for new ones, this patch just disables preemption around the FPSIMD state flushing so that races of this type can't occur here. This brings fpsimd_flush_thread() into line with other code paths.
