commit 6e91f8cb upstream. If, at the time __rcu_process_callbacks() is invoked, there are callbacks in Tiny RCU's callback list, but none of them are ready to be invoked, the current list-management code will knit the non-ready callbacks out of the list. This can result in hangs and possibly worse. This commit therefore inserts a check for there being no callbacks that can be invoked immediately. This bug is unlikely to occur -- you have to get a new callback between the time rcu_sched_qs() or rcu_bh_qs() was called, but before we get to __rcu_process_callbacks(). It was detected by the addition of RCU-bh testing to rcutorture, which in turn was instigated by Iftekhar Ahmed's mutation testing. Although this bug was made much more likely by 915e8a4f (rcu: Remove fastpath from __rcu_process_callbacks()), this did not cause the bug, but rather made it much more probable. That said, it takes more than 40 hours of rcutorture testing, on average, for this bug to appear, so this fix cannot be considered an emergency. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

commit 8687634b upstream. In RS485 mode, we may want to set the delay_rts_after_send value to 0. In the datasheet, the 0 value is said to "disable" the Transmitter Timeguard but this is exactly the expected behavior if we want no delay... Moreover, if the value was set to non-zero value by device-tree or earlier ioctl command, it was impossible to change it back to zero.

commit 5de2755c upstream. Because we drop cpu_base->lock around calling hrtimer::function, it is possible for hrtimer_start() to come in between and enqueue the timer. If hrtimer::function then returns HRTIMER_RESTART we'll hit the BUG_ON because HRTIMER_STATE_ENQUEUED will be set. Since the above is a perfectly valid scenario, remove the BUG_ON and make the enqueue_hrtimer() call conditional on the timer not being enqueued already. NOTE: in that concurrent scenario its entirely common for both sites to want to modify the hrtimer, since hrtimers don't provide serialization themselves be sure to provide some such that the hrtimer::function and the hrtimer_start() caller don't both try and fudge the expiration state at the same time. To that effect, add a WARN when someone tries to forward an already enqueued timer, the most common way to change the expiry of self restarting timers. Ideally we'd put the WARN in everything modifying the expiry but most of that is inlines and we don't need the bloat.

commit 9aa272b4 upstream. Running mtd-utils/tests/ubi-tests/io_basic.c could cause soft lockup or watchdog reset. It is because *updatevol* will perform ubi_check_volume() after updating finish and this function will full scan the updated lebs if the volume is initialized as STATIC_VOLUME. This patch adds *cond_resched()* in the loop of lebs scan to avoid soft lockup.

commit 4d46a67a upstream. The lazy cache flushing implemented in the MIPS kernel suffers from a race condition that is exposed by do_set_pte() in mm/memory.c. A pre-condition is a file-system that writes to the page from the CPU in its readpage method and then calls flush_dcache_page(). One example is ubifs. Another pre-condition is that the dcache flush is postponed in __flush_dcache_page(). Upon a page fault for an executable mapping not existing in the page-cache, the following will happen: 1. Write to the page 2. flush_dcache_page 3. flush_icache_page 4. set_pte_at 5. update_mmu_cache (commits the flush of a dcache-dirty page) Between steps 4 and 5 another thread can hit the same page and it will encounter a valid pte. Because the data still is in the L1 dcache the CPU will fetch stale data from L2 into the icache and execute garbage. This fix moves the commit of the cache flush to step 3 to close the race window. It also reduces the amount of flushes on non-executable mappings because we never enter __flush_dcache_page() for non-aliasing CPUs. Regressions can occur in drivers that mistakenly relies on the flush_dcache_page() in get_user_pages() for DMA operations.

commit 34376a50 upstream. The stop machine logic can lock up if all but one of the migration threads make it through the disable-irq step and the one remaining thread gets stuck in __do_softirq. The reason __do_softirq can hang is that it has a bail-out based on jiffies timeout, but in the lockup case, jiffies itself is not incremented. To work around this, re-add the max_restart counter in __do_irq and stop processing irqs after 10 restarts. Thanks to Tejun Heo and Rusty Russell and others for helping me track this down. This was introduced in 3.9 by commit c10d7367 ("softirq: reduce latencies"). It may be worth looking into ath9k to see if it has issues with its irq handler at a later date. The hang stack traces look something like this: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at kernel/watchdog.c:245 watchdog_overflow_callback+0x9c/0xa7() Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 2 Modules linked in: ath9k ath9k_common ath9k_hw ath mac80211 cfg80211 nfsv4 auth_rpcgss nfs fscache nf_nat_ipv4 nf_nat veth 8021q garp stp mrp llc pktgen lockd sunrpc] Pid: 23, comm: migration/2 Tainted: G C 3.9.4+ #11 Call Trace: <NMI> warn_slowpath_common+0x85/0x9f warn_slowpath_fmt+0x46/0x48 watchdog_overflow_callback+0x9c/0xa7 __perf_event_overflow+0x137/0x1cb perf_event_overflow+0x14/0x16 intel_pmu_handle_irq+0x2dc/0x359 perf_event_nmi_handler+0x19/0x1b nmi_handle+0x7f/0xc2 do_nmi+0xbc/0x304 end_repeat_nmi+0x1e/0x2e <<EOE>> cpu_stopper_thread+0xae/0x162 smpboot_thread_fn+0x258/0x260 kthread+0xc7/0xcf ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 ---[ end trace 4947dfa9b0a4cec3 ]--- BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 22s!

commit c10d7367 upstream. In various network workloads, __do_softirq() latencies can be up to 20 ms if HZ=1000, and 200 ms if HZ=100. This is because we iterate 10 times in the softirq dispatcher, and some actions can consume a lot of cycles. This patch changes the fallback to ksoftirqd condition to : - A time limit of 2 ms. - need_resched() being set on current task When one of this condition is met, we wakeup ksoftirqd for further softirq processing if we still have pending softirqs. Using need_resched() as the only condition can trigger RCU stalls, as we can keep BH disabled for too long. I ran several benchmarks and got no significant difference in throughput, but a very significant reduction of latencies (one order of magnitude) : In following bench, 200 antagonist "netperf -t TCP_RR" are started in background, using all available cpus. Then we start one "netperf -t TCP_RR", bound to the cpu handling the NIC IRQ (hard+soft) Before patch : # netperf -H 7.7.7.84 -t TCP_RR -T2,2 -- -k RT_LATENCY,MIN_LATENCY,MAX_LATENCY,P50_LATENCY,P90_LATENCY,P99_LATENCY,MEAN_LATENCY,STDDEV_LATENCY MIGRATED TCP REQUEST/RESPONSE TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 7.7.7.84 () port 0 AF_INET : first burst 0 : cpu bind RT_LATENCY=550110.424 MIN_LATENCY=146858 MAX_LATENCY=997109 P50_LATENCY=305000 P90_LATENCY=550000 P99_LATENCY=710000 MEAN_LATENCY=376989.12 STDDEV_LATENCY=184046.92 After patch : # netperf -H 7.7.7.84 -t TCP_RR -T2,2 -- -k RT_LATENCY,MIN_LATENCY,MAX_LATENCY,P50_LATENCY,P90_LATENCY,P99_LATENCY,MEAN_LATENCY,STDDEV_LATENCY MIGRATED TCP REQUEST/RESPONSE TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 7.7.7.84 () port 0 AF_INET : first burst 0 : cpu bind RT_LATENCY=40545.492 MIN_LATENCY=9834 MAX_LATENCY=78366 P50_LATENCY=33583 P90_LATENCY=59000 P99_LATENCY=69000 MEAN_LATENCY=38364.67 STDDEV_LATENCY=12865.26 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

commit 73af963f upstream. __ptrace_may_access() checks get_dumpable/ptrace_has_cap/etc if task != current, this can can lead to surprising results. For example, a sub-thread can't readlink("/proc/self/exe") if the executable is not readable. setup_new_exec()->would_dump() notices that inode_permission(MAY_READ) fails and then it does set_dumpable(suid_dumpable). After that get_dumpable() fails. (It is not clear why proc_pid_readlink() checks get_dumpable(), perhaps we could add PTRACE_MODE_NODUMPABLE) Change __ptrace_may_access() to use same_thread_group() instead of "task == current". Any security check is pointless when the tasks share the same ->mm.

So disabling the local irq before stop_other_cpu() can fix this problem (tested 25 times reboot ok), and it is fine as there should be nobody caring the timer interrupt in such reboot stage. The latest 3.4 kernel slightly changes this behavior by sending REBOOT_VECTOR first and only send NMI_VECTOR if the REBOOT_VCTOR fails, and this patch is still needed to prevent the problem.

commit a6dfa128 upstream. A huge amount of NIC drivers use the DMA API, however if compiled under 32-bit an very important part of the DMA API can be ommitted leading to the drivers not working at all (especially if used with 'swiotlb=force iommu=soft'). As Prashant Sreedharan explains it: "the driver [tg3] uses DEFINE_DMA_UNMAP_ADDR(), dma_unmap_addr_set() to keep a copy of the dma "mapping" and dma_unmap_addr() to get the "mapping" value. On most of the platforms this is a no-op, but ... with "iommu=soft and swiotlb=force" this house keeping is required, ... otherwise we pass 0 while calling pci_unmap_/pci_dma_sync_ instead of the DMA address." As such enable this even when using 32-bit kernels. Reported-by: Ian Jackson <Ian.Jackson@eu.citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Acked-by: David S.

Based on 08adb7da upstream. We found that after v3.10.73, recvmsg might return -EFAULT while -EINVAL was expected. We tested it through the recvmsg01 testcase come from LTP testsuit. It set msg->msg_namelen to -1 and the recvmsg syscall returned errno 14, which is unexpected (errno 22 is expected): recvmsg01 4 TFAIL : invalid socket length ; returned -1 (expected -1), errno 14 (expected 22) Linux mainline has no this bug for commit 08adb7da fixes it accidentally. However, it is too large and complex to be backported to LTS 3.10. Commit 281c9c36 (net: compat: Update get_compat_msghdr() to match copy_msghdr_from_user() behaviour) made get_compat_msghdr() return error if msg_sys->msg_namelen was negative, which changed the behaviors of recvmsg and sendmsg syscall in a lib32 system: Before commit 281c9c36, get_compat_msghdr() wouldn't fail and it would return -EINVAL in move_addr_to_user() or somewhere if msg_sys->msg_namelen was invalid and then syscall returned -EINVAL, which is correct. And now, when msg_sys->msg_namelen is negative, get_compat_msghdr() will fail and wants to return -EINVAL, however, the outer syscall will return -EFAULT directly, which is unexpected. This patch gets the return value of get_compat_msghdr() as well as copy_msghdr_from_user(), then returns this expected value if get_compat_msghdr() fails.

commit 43d77867 upstream. Current implementation of unfreeze_partials() is so complicated, but benefit from it is insignificant. In addition many code in do {} while loop have a bad influence to a fail rate of cmpxchg_double_slab. Under current implementation which test status of cpu partial slab and acquire list_lock in do {} while loop, we don't need to acquire a list_lock and gain a little benefit when front of the cpu partial slab is to be discarded, but this is a rare case. In case that add_partial is performed and cmpxchg_double_slab is failed, remove_partial should be called case by case. I think that these are disadvantages of current implementation, so I do refactoring unfreeze_partials(). Minimizing code in do {} while loop introduce a reduced fail rate of cmpxchg_double_slab.
