Nothing is using it yet, but this will allow us to delay the open-time

semantics where permissions are determined by the opener (and the file

drop capabilities).
vfs: Revert spurious fix to spinning prevention in prune_icache_sb
Revert commit 62a3ddef6181 ("vfs: fix spinning prevention in prune_icache_sb").
This commit doesn't look right: since we are looking at the tail of the
list (sb->s_inode_lru.prev) if we want to skip an inode, we should put
it back at the head of the list instead of the tail, otherwise we will
keep spinning on it.
Discovered when investigating why prune_icache_sb came top in perf
reports of a swapping load.
kobject: fix kset_find_obj() race with concurrent last kobject_put()
Anatol Pomozov identified a race condition that hits module unloading
and re-loading. To quote Anatol:
"This is a race codition that exists between kset_find_obj() and
kobject_put(). kset_find_obj() might return kobject that has refcount
equal to 0 if this kobject is freeing by kobject_put() in other
thread.
Here is timeline for the crash in case if kset_find_obj() searches for
an object tht nobody holds and other thread is doing kobject_put() on
the same kobject:
THREAD A (calls kset_find_obj()) THREAD B (calls kobject_put())
splin_lock()
atomic_dec_return(kobj->kref), counter gets zero here
... starts kobject cleanup ....
spin_lock() // WAIT thread A in kobj_kset_leave()
iterate over kset->list
atomic_inc(kobj->kref) (counter becomes 1)
spin_unlock()
spin_lock() // taken
// it does not know that thread A increased counter so it
remove obj from list
spin_unlock()
vfree(module) // frees module object with containing kobj
// kobj points to freed memory area!!
kobject_put(kobj) // OOPS!!!!
The race above happens because module.c tries to use kset_find_obj()
when somebody unloads module. The module.c code was introduced in
commit 6494a93d55fa"
Anatol supplied a patch specific for module.c that worked around the
problem by simply not using kset_find_obj() at all, but rather than make
a local band-aid, this just fixes kset_find_obj() to be thread-safe
using the proper model of refusing the get a new reference if the
refcount has already dropped to zero.
See examples of this proper refcount handling not only in the kref
documentation, but in various other equivalent uses of this pattern by
grepping for atomic_inc_not_zero().
[ Side note: the module race does indicate that module loading and
unloading is not properly serialized wrt sysfs information using the
module mutex. That may require further thought, but this is the
correct fix at the kobject layer regardless. ]
Ingo guesses this got introduced by commit 611ae8e3f520 ("x86/tlb:
enable tlb flush range support for x86") since that code started to free
unused pagetables.
On x86-32 PAE kernels, that new code has the potential to free an entire
PMD page and will clear one of the four page-directory-pointer-table
(aka pgd_t entries).
The hardware aggressively "caches" these top-level entries and invlpg
does not actually affect the CPU's copy. If we clear one we *HAVE* to
do a full TLB flush, otherwise we might continue using a freed pmd page.
(note, we do this properly on the population side in pud_populate()).
This patch tracks whenever we clear one of these entries in the 'struct
mmu_gather', and ensures that we follow up with a full tlb flush.
BTW, I disassembled and checked that:
if (tlb->fullmm == 0)
and
if (!tlb->fullmm && !tlb->need_flush_all)
generate essentially the same code, so there should be zero impact there
to the !PAE case.

tracing: Fix possible NULL pointer dereferences
Currently set_ftrace_pid and set_graph_function files use seq_lseek
for their fops. However seq_open() is called only for FMODE_READ in
the fops->open() so that if an user tries to seek one of those file
when she open it for writing, it sees NULL seq_file and then panic.
It can be easily reproduced with following command:
$ cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
$ echo 1234 | sudo tee -a set_ftrace_pid
In this example, GNU coreutils' tee opens the file with fopen(, "a")
and then the fopen() internally calls lseek().

bnx2x: Prevent null pointer dereference in AFEX mode
The cnic module is responsible for initializing various bnx2x structs
via callbacks provided by the bnx2x module.
One such struct is the queue object for the FCoE queue.
If a device is working in AFEX mode and its configuration allows FCoE yet
the cnic module is not loaded, it's very likely a null pointer dereference
will occur, as the bnx2x will erroneously access the FCoE's queue object.
Prevent said access until cnic properly registers itself.

NFSv4: Doh! Typo in the fix to nfs41_walk_client_list
This patch fix the regression introduced by the commit 3202bf0157ccb
"arm: mvebu: Improve the SMP support of the interrupt controller":
GPIO IRQ were no longer delivered to the CPUs.
To be delivered to a CPU an interrupt must be enabled at CPU level and
at interrupt source level. Before the offending patch, all the
interrupts were enabled at source level during map() function. Mask()
and unmask() was done by handling the per-CPU part. It was fine when
running in UP with only one CPU.
The offending patch added support for SMP, in this case mask() and
unmask() was done by handling the interrupt source level part. The
per-CPU level part was handled by the affinity API to select the CPU
which will receive the interrupt. (Due to some hardware limitation
only one CPU at a time can received a given interrupt).
For "normal" interrupt __setup_irq() was called when an irq was
registered. irq_set_affinity() is called from this function, which
enabled the interrupt on one of the CPUs. Whereas for GPIO IRQ which
were chained interrupts, the irq_set_affinity() was never called and
none of the CPUs was selected to receive the interrupt.
With this patch all the interrupt are enable on the current CPU during
map() function. Enabling the interrupts on a CPU doesn't depend
anymore on irq_set_affinity() and then the chained irq are not anymore
a special case. However the CPU which will receive the irq can still
be modify later using irq_set_affinity().
Tested with Mirabox (A370) and Openblocks AX3 (AXP), rootfs mounted
over NFS, compiled with CONFIG_SMP=y/N.

spinlocks and preemption points need to be at least compiler barriers
In UP and non-preempt respectively, the spinlocks and preemption
disable/enable points are stubbed out entirely, because there is no
regular code that can ever hit the kind of concurrency they are meant to
protect against.
However, while there is no regular code that can cause scheduling, we
_do_ end up having some exceptional (literally!) code that can do so,
and that we need to make sure does not ever get moved into the critical
region by the compiler.
In particular, get_user() and put_user() is generally implemented as
inline asm statements (even if the inline asm may then make a call
instruction to call out-of-line), and can obviously cause a page fault
and IO as a result. If that inline asm has been scheduled into the
middle of a preemption-safe (or spinlock-protected) code region, we
obviously lose.
Now, admittedly this is *very* unlikely to actually ever happen, and
we've not seen examples of actual bugs related to this. But partly
exactly because it's so hard to trigger and the resulting bug is so
subtle, we should be extra careful to get this right.
So make sure that even when preemption is disabled, and we don't have to
generate any actual *code* to explicitly tell the system that we are in
a preemption-disabled region, we need to at least tell the compiler not
to move things around the critical region.
This patch grew out of the same discussion that caused commits 79e5f05edcbf ("ARC: Add implicit compiler barrier to raw_local_irq*
functions") and 3e2e0d2c222b ("tile: comment assumption about
__insn_mtspr for <asm/irqflags.h>") to come about.
Note for stable: use discretion when/if applying this. As mentioned,
this bug may never have actually bitten anybody, and gcc may never have
done the required code motion for it to possibly ever trigger in
practice.

ARC: Add implicit compiler barrier to raw_local_irq* functions
ARC irqsave/restore macros were missing the compiler barrier, causing a
stale load in irq-enabled region be used in irq-safe region, despite
being changed, because the register holding the value was still live.
The problem manifested as random crashes in timer code when stress
testing ARCLinux (3.9-rc3) on a !SMP && !PREEMPT_COUNT
Here's the exact sequence which caused this:
(0). tv1[x] <----> t1 <---> t2
(1). mod_timer(t1) interrupted after it calls timer_pending()
(2). mod_timer(t2) completes
(3). mod_timer(t1) resumes but messes up the list
(4). __runt_timers( ) uses bogus timer_list entry / crashes in
timer->function
Essentially mod_timer() was racing against itself and while the spinlock
serialized the tv1[] timer link list, timer_pending() called outside the
spinlock, cached timer link list element in a register.
With low register pressure (and a deep register file), lack of barrier
in raw_local_irqsave() as well as preempt_disable (!PREEMPT_COUNT
version), there was nothing to force gcc to reload across the spinlock,
causing a stale value in reg be used for link list manipulation - ensuing
a corruption.
ARcompact disassembly which shows the culprit generated code:
tst_s r3,r3 <--------------
# timer_pending( ) checks timer->entry.next
# r3 is NOT reloaded by gcc, using stale value
beq.d @.L169
mov.eq r0,0
##### detach_timer( ): __list_del( )

st r4,[r3,4] # <variable>.prev, D.31439
st r3,[r4] # <variable>.next, D.30246
We initially tried to fix this by adding barrier() to preempt_* macros
for !PREEMPT_COUNT but Linus clarified that it was anything but wrong.

PM / reboot: call syscore_shutdown() after disable_nonboot_cpus()
As commit 40dc166c (PM / Core: Introduce struct syscore_ops for core
subsystems PM) say, syscore_ops operations should be carried with one
CPU on-line and interrupts disabled. However, after commit f96972f2d
(kernel/sys.c: call disable_nonboot_cpus() in kernel_restart()),
syscore_shutdown() is called before disable_nonboot_cpus(), so break
the rules. We have a MIPS machine with a 8259A PIC, and there is an
external timer (HPET) linked at 8259A. Since 8259A has been shutdown
too early (by syscore_shutdown()), disable_nonboot_cpus() runs without
timer interrupt, so it hangs and reboot fails. This patch call
syscore_shutdown() a little later (after disable_nonboot_cpus()) to
avoid reboot failure, this is the same way as poweroff does.
For consistency, add disable_nonboot_cpus() to kernel_halt().

ftrace: Do not call stub functions in control loop
The function tracing control loop used by perf spits out a warning
if the called function is not a control function. This is because
the control function references a per cpu allocated data structure
on struct ftrace_ops that is not allocated for other types of
functions.
commit 0a016409e42 "ftrace: Optimize the function tracer list loop"
Had an optimization done to all function tracing loops to optimize
for a single registered ops. Unfortunately, this allows for a slight
race when tracing starts or ends, where the stub function might be
called after the current registered ops is removed. In this case we
get the following dump:
To fix this a new ftrace_ops flag is added that denotes the ftrace_list_end
ftrace_ops stub as just that, a stub. This flag is now checked in the
control loop and the function is not called if the flag is set.
Thanks to Jovi for not just reporting the bug, but also pointing out
where the bug was in the code.
