commit 79ad07d4 upstream. There is a cut and paste issue here. The bug is that we are allocating more memory than necessary for msp_maps. We should be allocating enough space for a map_info struct (144 bytes) but we instead allocate enough for an mtd_info struct (1840 bytes). It's a small waste. The other part of this is not harmful but when we allocated msp_flash then we allocated enough space fro a map_info pointer instead of an mtd_info pointer. But since pointers are the same size it works out fine. Anyway, I decided to clean up all three allocations a bit to make them a bit more consistent and clear.

commit e23d4159 upstream. Switching iov_iter fault-in to multipages variants has exposed an old bug in underlying fault_in_multipages_...(); they break if the range passed to them wraps around. Normally access_ok() done by callers will prevent such (and it's a guaranteed EFAULT - ERR_PTR() values fall into such a range and they should not point to any valid objects). However, on architectures where userland and kernel live in different MMU contexts (e.g. s390) access_ok() is a no-op and on those a range with a wraparound can reach fault_in_multipages_...(). Since any wraparound means EFAULT there, the fix is trivial - turn those while (uaddr <= end) ... into if (unlikely(uaddr > end)) return -EFAULT; do ... while (uaddr <= end); Reported-by:

commit 8e0cc8c3 upstream. gcc points out code that is not indented the way it is interpreted: net/caif/cfpkt_skbuff.c: In function 'cfpkt_setlen': net/caif/cfpkt_skbuff.c:289:4: error: statement is indented as if it were guarded by... [-Werror=misleading-indentation] return cfpkt_getlen(pkt); ^~~~~~ net/caif/cfpkt_skbuff.c:286:3: note: ...this 'else' clause, but it is not else ^~~~ It is clear from the context that not returning here would be a bug, as we'd end up passing a negative length into a function that takes a u16 length, so it is not missing curly braces here, and I'm assuming that the indentation is the only part that's wrong about it.

commit 377ccbb4 upstream. With the latest gcc compilers, they give a warning if __builtin_return_address() parameter is greater than 0. That is because if it is used by a function called by a top level function (or in the case of the kernel, by assembly), it can try to access stack frames outside the stack and crash the system. The tracing system uses __builtin_return_address() of up to 2! But it is well aware of the dangers that it may have, and has even added precautions to protect against it (see the thunk code in arch/x86/entry/thunk*.S) Linus originally added KBUILD_CFLAGS that would suppress the warning for the entire kernel, as simply adding KBUILD_CFLAGS to the tracing directory wouldn't work. The tracing directory plays a bit with the CFLAGS and requires a little more logic. This adds that special logic to only suppress the warning for the tracing directory. If it is used anywhere else outside of tracing, the warning will still be triggered. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160728223043.51996267@grimm.local.homeTested-by:

commit 124a3d88 upstream. Newer versions of gcc warn about the use of __builtin_return_address() with a non-zero argument when "-Wall" is specified: kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c: In function ‘stop_critical_timings’: kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c:433:86: warning: calling ‘__builtin_return_address’ with a nonzero argument is unsafe [-Wframe-address] stop_critical_timing(CALLER_ADDR0, CALLER_ADDR1); [ .. repeats a few times for other similar cases .. ] It is true that a non-zero argument is somewhat dangerous, and we do not actually have very many uses of that in the kernel - but the ftrace code does use it, and as Stephen Rostedt says: "We are well aware of the danger of using __builtin_return_address() of > 0. In fact that's part of the reason for having the "thunk" code in x86 (See arch/x86/entry/thunk_{64,32}.S). [..] it adds extra frames when tracking irqs off sections, to prevent __builtin_return_address() from accessing bad areas. In fact the thunk_32.S states: 'Trampoline to trace irqs off. (otherwise CALLER_ADDR1 might crash)'." For now, __builtin_return_address() with a non-zero argument is the best we can do, and the warning is not helpful and can end up making people miss other warnings for real problems. So disable the frame-address warning on compilers that need it. Acked-by:

commit 6e8d666e upstream. Several build configurations had already disabled this warning because it generates a lot of false positives. But some had not, and it was still enabled for "allmodconfig" builds, for example. Looking at the warnings produced, every single one I looked at was a false positive, and the warnings are frequent enough (and big enough) that they can easily hide real problems that you don't notice in the noise generated by -Wmaybe-uninitialized. The warning is good in theory, but this is a classic case of a warning that causes more problems than the warning can solve. If gcc gets better at avoiding false positives, we may be able to re-enable this warning. But as is, we're better off without it, and I want to be able to see the *real* warnings. Signed-off-by:

commit e72e2dfe upstream. When gcov profiling is enabled, we see a lot of spurious warnings about possibly uninitialized variables being used: arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c: In function 'arm_coherent_iommu_map_page': arch/arm/mm/dma-mapping.c:1085:16: warning: 'start' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] drivers/clk/st/clk-flexgen.c: In function 'st_of_flexgen_setup': drivers/clk/st/clk-flexgen.c:323:9: warning: 'num_parents' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] kernel/cgroup.c: In function 'cgroup_mount': kernel/cgroup.c:2119:11: warning: 'root' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] All of these are false positives, so it seems better to just disable the warnings whenever GCOV is enabled. Most users don't enable GCOV, and based on a prior patch, it is now also disabled for 'allmodconfig' builds, so there should be no downsides of doing this. Signed-off-by:

commit 815eb71e upstream. CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES confuses gcc-5.x to the degree that it prints incorrect warnings about a lot of variables that it thinks can be used uninitialized, e.g.: i2c/busses/i2c-diolan-u2c.c: In function 'diolan_usb_xfer': i2c/busses/i2c-diolan-u2c.c:391:16: warning: 'byte' may be used uninitialized in this function iio/gyro/itg3200_core.c: In function 'itg3200_probe': iio/gyro/itg3200_core.c:213:6: warning: 'val' may be used uninitialized in this function leds/leds-lp55xx-common.c: In function 'lp55xx_update_bits': leds/leds-lp55xx-common.c:350:6: warning: 'tmp' may be used uninitialized in this function misc/bmp085.c: In function 'show_pressure': misc/bmp085.c:363:10: warning: 'pressure' may be used uninitialized in this function power/ds2782_battery.c: In function 'ds2786_get_capacity': power/ds2782_battery.c:214:17: warning: 'raw' may be used uninitialized in this function These are all false positives that either rob someone's time when trying to figure out whether they are real, or they get people to send wrong patches to shut up the warnings. Nobody normally wants to run a CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES kernel in production, so disabling the whole class of warnings for this configuration has no serious downsides either. Signed-off-by:

commit 51193b76 upstream. When the kernel path contains a space or a colon somewhere in the path name, the modules_install target doesn't work anymore, as the path names are not enclosed in double quotes. It is also supposed that and O= build will suffer from the same weakness as modules_install. Instead of checking and improving kbuild to resist to directories including these characters, error out early to prevent any build if the kernel's main directory contains a space. Signed-off-by:

commit d21c353d upstream. If we punch a hole on a reflink such that following conditions are met: 1. start offset is on a cluster boundary 2. end offset is not on a cluster boundary 3. (end offset is somewhere in another extent) or (hole range > MAX_CONTIG_BYTES(1MB)), we dont COW the first cluster starting at the start offset. But in this case, we were wrongly passing this cluster to ocfs2_zero_range_for_truncate() to zero out. This will modify the cluster in place and zero it in the source too. Fix this by skipping this cluster in such a scenario. To reproduce: 1. Create a random file of say 10 MB xfs_io -c 'pwrite -b 4k 0 10M' -f 10MBfile 2. Reflink it reflink -f 10MBfile reflnktest 3. Punch a hole at starting at cluster boundary with range greater that 1MB. You can also use a range that will put the end offset in another extent. fallocate -p -o 0 -l 1048615 reflnktest 4. sync 5. Check the first cluster in the source file. (It will be zeroed out). dd if=10MBfile iflag=direct bs=<cluster size> count=1 | hexdump -C Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1470957147-14185-1-git-send-email-ashish.samant@oracle.comSigned-off-by:

commit e6f0c6e6 upstream. Commit ac7cf246 ("ocfs2/dlm: fix race between convert and recovery") checks if lockres master has changed to identify whether new master has finished recovery or not. This will introduce a race that right after old master does umount ( means master will change), a new convert request comes. In this case, it will reset lockres state to DLM_RECOVERING and then retry convert, and then fail with lockres->l_action being set to OCFS2_AST_INVALID, which will cause inconsistent lock level between ocfs2 and dlm, and then finally BUG. Since dlm recovery will clear lock->convert_pending in dlm_move_lockres_to_recovery_list, we can use it to correctly identify the race case between convert and recovery. So fix it.

commit acdb04d0 upstream. When we need to allocate a temporary blkcipher_walk_next and it fails, the code is supposed to take the slow path of processing the data block by block. However, due to an unrelated change we instead end up dereferencing the NULL pointer. This patch fixes it by moving the unrelated bsize setting out of the way so that we enter the slow path as inteded.

commit c87bf431 upstream. Enabling CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL produces us a lot of warnings like lib/lz4/lz4hc_compress.c: In function 'lz4_compresshcctx': lib/lz4/lz4hc_compress.c:514:1: warning: the frame size of 1504 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] After some investigation, I found that this behavior started with gcc-4.9, and opened https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=69702. A suggested workaround for it is to use the -fno-tree-loop-im flag that turns off one of the optimization stages in gcc, so the code runs a little slower but does not use excessive amounts of stack. We could make this conditional on the gcc version, but I could not find an easy way to do this in Kbuild and the benefit would be fairly small, given that most of the gcc version in production are affected now. I'm marking this for 'stable' backports because it addresses a bug with code generation in gcc that exists in all kernel versions with the affected gcc releases. Signed-off-by:
