through the VETH device may be 4 bytes bigger than MTU. A check
in dev_forward_skb did not take this into account and so dropped
these packets.

Limit sysctl_tcp_mem and sysctl_udp_mem initializers to prevent integer overflows.
On a 16TB x86_64 machine, sysctl_tcp_mem[2], sysctl_udp_mem[2], and
sysctl_sctp_mem[2] can integer overflow. Set limit such that they are
maximized without overflowing.
This patch fixes the condition (3rd arg) passed to sk_wait_event() in
sk_stream_wait_memory(). The incorrect check in sk_stream_wait_memory()
causes the following soft lockup in tcp_sendmsg() when the global tcp
memory pool has exhausted.
What is happening is, that the sk_wait_event() condition passed from
sk_stream_wait_memory() evaluates to true for the case of tcp global memory
exhaustion. This is because both sk_stream_memory_free() and vm_wait are true
which causes sk_wait_event() to *not* call schedule_timeout().
Hence sk_stream_wait_memory() returns immediately to the caller w/o sleeping.
This causes the caller to again try allocation, which again fails and again
calls sk_stream_wait_memory(), and so on.

This code has been broken forever, but in several different and
creative ways.
So far as I can work out, the R6040 MAC filter has 4 exact-match
entries, the first of which the driver uses for its assigned unicast
address, plus a 64-entry hash-based filter for multicast addresses
(maybe unicast as well?).
The original version of this code would write the first 4 multicast
addresses as exact-match entries from offset 1 (bug #1: there is no
entry 4 so this could write to some PHY registers). It would fill the
remainder of the exact-match entries with the broadcast address (bug #2:
this would overwrite the last used entry). If more than 4 multicast
addresses were configured, it would set up the hash table, write some
random crap to the MAC control register (bug #3) and finally walk off
the end of the list when filling the exact-match entries (bug #4).
All of this seems to be pointless, since it sets the promiscuous bit
when the interface is made promiscuous or if >4 multicast addresses
are enabled, and never clears it (bug #5, masking bug #2).
The recent(ish) changes to the multicast list fixed bug #4, but
completely removed the limit on iteration over the exact-match entries
(bug #6).
Bug #4 was reported as
<https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15355> and more recently
as <http://bugs.debian.org/600155>. Florian Fainelli attempted to fix
these in commit 3bcf8229a8c49769e48d3e0bd1e20d8e003f8106, but that
actually dealt with bugs #1-3, bug #4 having been fixed in mainline at
that point.
That commit fixes the most important current bug #6.

The function __scsi_remove_target iterates through the SCSI devices on

scsi_remove_device. When the SCSI device is deleted from another
thread, the pointer to the SCSI device in scsi_remove_device can
become invalid. Fix this by getting a reference to the SCSI device
before dropping the host_lock to keep the SCSI device alive for the
call to scsi_remove_device.
gdth_ioctl_alloc() takes the size variable as an int.
copy_from_user() takes the size variable as an unsigned long.
gen.data_len and gen.sense_len are unsigned longs.
On x86_64 longs are 64 bit and ints are 32 bit.
We could pass in a very large number and the allocation would truncate
the size to 32 bits and allocate a small buffer. Then when we do the
copy_from_user(), it would result in a memory corruption.

This patch (as1430) fixes a bug in usbcore. When a device
configuration change occurs or a device is removed, the endpoints for
the old config should be completely disabled. However it turns out
they aren't; this is because usb_unbind_interface() calls
usb_enable_interface() or usb_set_interface() to put interfaces back
in altsetting 0, which re-enables the interfaces' endpoints.
As a result, when a device goes through a config change or is
unconfigured, the ep_in[] and ep_out[] arrays may be left holding old
pointers to usb_host_endpoint structures. If the device is
deauthorized these structures get freed, and the stale pointers cause
errors when the the device is eventually unplugged.
The solution is to disable the endpoints after unbinding the
interfaces instead of before. This isn't as large a change as it
sounds, since usb_unbind_interface() disables all the interface's
endpoints anyway before calling the driver's disconnect routine,
unless the driver claims to support "soft" unbind.
This fixes Bugzilla #19192. Thanks to "Tom" Lei Ming for diagnosing
the underlying cause of the problem.

The protocol code is set 00 in IAD and it's set to 01 in ACM control

This patch corrects the protocol code in ACM IAD to the same as in

Since commit 461972d8a4c94bc44f11a13046041c78a7cf18dd (musb_core: don't call
musb_platform_exit() twice), unloading the driver module results in a WARNING
"kobject: '(null)' (c73de788): is not initialized, yet kobject_put() is being
called." (or even kernel oops) on e.g. DaVincis, though only in the OTG mode.
There exists dubious and unbalanced put_device() call in musb_free() which
takes place only in the OTG mode. As this commit caused musb_platform_exit()
to be called (and so unregister the NOP transceiver) before this put_device()
call, this function references already freed memory.
On the other hand, all the glue layers miss the otg_put_transceiver() call,
complementary to the otg_get_transceiver() call that they do. So, I think
the solution is to get rid of the strange put_device() call, and instead
call otg_put_transceiver() in the glue layers...

This patch implements restoring of the correct rip, rsp, and
rax after the svm emulation in KVM injected a selective_cr0
write intercept into the guest hypervisor. The problem was
that the vmexit is emulated in the instruction emulation
which later commits the registers right after the write-cr0
instruction. So the l1 guest will continue to run with the
l2 rip, rsp and rax resulting in unpredictable behavior.
This patch is not the final word, it is just an easy patch
to fix the issue. The real fix will be done when the
instruction emulator is made aware of nested virtualization.
Until this is done this patch fixes the issue and provides
an easy way to fix this in -stable too.

("x86, traps: converge do_debug handlers")
started disabling preemption in int1 and int3 handlers on i386.
The problem with vm86 is that the call to handle_vm86_trap() may jump
straight to entry_32.S and never returns so preempt is never enabled
again, and there is an imbalance in the preempt count.
Commit be716615fe596ee117292dc615e95f707fb67fd1 ("x86, vm86:
fix preemption bug"), which was later (accidentally?) reverted by commit 08d68323d1f0c34452e614263b212ca556dae47f ("hw-breakpoints: modifying
generic debug exception to use thread-specific debug registers")
fixed the problem for debug exceptions but not for breakpoints.
There are three solutions to this problem.
1. Reenable preemption before calling handle_vm86_trap(). This
was the approach that was later reverted.
2. Do not disable preemption for i386 in breakpoint and debug handlers.
This was the situation before October 2008. As far as I understand
preemption only needs to be disabled on x86_64 because a seperate stack is
used, but it's nice to have things work the same way on
i386 and x86_64.
3. Let handle_vm86_trap() return instead of jumping to assembly code.
By setting a flag in _TIF_WORK_MASK, either TIF_IRET or TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME,
the code in entry_32.S is instructed to return to 32 bit mode from
V86 mode. The logic in entry_32.S was already present to handle signals.
(I chose TIF_IRET because it's slightly more efficient in
do_notify_resume() in signal.c, but in fact TIF_IRET can probably be
replaced by TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME everywhere.)
I'm submitting approach 3, because I believe it is the most elegant
and prevents future confusion. Still, an obvious
preempt_conditional_cli(regs); is necessary in traps.c to correct the
bug.
[ hpa: This is technically a regression, but because:
1. the regression is so old,
2. the patch seems relatively high risk, justifying more testing, and
3. we're late in the 2.6.36-rc cycle,
I'm queuing it up for the 2.6.37 merge window. It might, however,
justify as a -stable backport at a latter time, hence Cc: stable. ]

The copy of /proc/vmcore to a user buffer proceeds much faster
if the kernel addresses memory as cached.
With this patch we have seen an increase in transfer rate from
less than 15MB/s to 80-460MB/s, depending on size of the
transfer. This makes a big difference in time needed to save a
system dump.
Currently the redirection hint in the interrupt-remapping table entry
is set to 0, which means the remapped interrupt is directed to the
processors listed in the destination. So in logical flat mode
in the presence of intr-remapping, this results in a single
interrupt multi-casted to multiple cpu's as specified by the destination
bit mask. But what we really want is to send that interrupt to one of the cpus
based on the lowest priority delivery mode.
Set the redirection hint in the IRTE to '1' to indicate that we want
the remapped interrupt to be directed to only one of the processors
listed in the destination.
This fixes the issue of same interrupt getting delivered to multiple cpu's
in the logical flat mode in the presence of interrupt-remapping. While
there is no functional issue observed with this behavior, this will
impact performance of such configurations (<=8 cpu's using logical flat
mode in the presence of interrupt-remapping)

The AMD SSE5 feature set as-it has been replaced by some extensions

Although this changes the /proc/cpuinfo output, it is not user visible, as
there are no CPUs (yet) having this feature.

During the reading of /proc/vmcore the kernel is doing
ioremap()/iounmap() repeatedly. And the buildup of un-flushed
vm_area_struct's is causing a great deal of overhead. (rb_next()
is chewing up most of that time).
This solution is to provide function set_iounmap_nonlazy(). It
causes a subsequent call to iounmap() to immediately purge the
vma area (with try_purge_vmap_area_lazy()).
With this patch we have seen the time for writing a 250MB

futex_wait() is leaking key references due to futex_wait_setup()
acquiring an additional reference via the queue_lock() routine. The
nested key ref-counting has been masking bugs and complicating code
analysis. queue_lock() is only called with a previously ref-counted
key, so remove the additional ref-counting from the queue_(un)lock()
functions.
Also futex_wait_requeue_pi() drops one key reference too many in
unqueue_me_pi(). Remove the key reference handling from
unqueue_me_pi(). This was paired with a queue_lock() in
futex_lock_pi(), so the count remains unchanged.

Load weights are for the CFS, they do not belong in the RT task. This makes all
RT scheduling classes leave the CFS weights alone.
This fixes a real bug as well: I noticed the following phonomena: a process
elevated to SCHED_RR forks with SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK set, and the child is
indeed SCHED_OTHER, and the niceval is indeed reset to 0. However the weight
inserted by set_load_weight() remains at 0, giving the task insignificat
priority.
With this fix, the weight is reset to what the task had before being elevated
to SCHED_RR/SCHED_FIFO.
The logic to distinguish marked instruction events from ordinary events

You can only call update_context_time() when the context
is active, i.e., the thread it is attached to is still running.
However, perf_event_read() can be called even when the context
is inactive, e.g., user read() the counters. The call to
update_context_time() must be conditioned on the status of
the context, otherwise, bogus time_enabled, time_running may
be returned. Here is an example on AMD64. The task program
is an example from libpfm4. The -p prints deltas every 1s.
- Event thread wakes up and passes the event to
event_handler() to process.
- It processes and clears the USBIP_EH_SHUTDOWN
flag then returns.
- The outer event loop (event_handler_loop()) calls
wait_event_interruptible().
The processing of the second flag which is part of
VDEV_EVENT_DOWN (USBIP_EH_RESET) did not happen yet.
It is delayed until the next event.
This means the ->reset callback may not happen for
a long time (if ever), leaving the usbip port in a
weird state which prevents its reuse.
This patch changes the handler to process all flags
before waiting for another wakeup.
I have verified this change to fix a problem which
prevented reattach of a usbip device. It also helps
for socket errors which missed the RESET as well.
The delayed event processing also affects the stub
side of usbip and the error handling there.

An execve with a very large total of argument/environment strings
can take a really long time in the execve system call. It runs
uninterruptibly to count and copy all the strings. This change
makes it abort the exec quickly if sent a SIGKILL.
Note that this is the conservative change, to interrupt only for
SIGKILL, by using fatal_signal_pending(). It would be perfectly
correct semantics to let any signal interrupt the string-copying in
execve, i.e. use signal_pending() instead of fatal_signal_pending().
We'll save that change for later, since it could have user-visible
consequences, such as having a timer set too quickly make it so that
an execve can never complete, though it always happened to work before.
This adds a preemption point during the copying of the argument and
environment strings for execve, in copy_strings(). There is already
a preemption point in the count() loop, so this doesn't add any new
points in the abstract sense.
When the total argument+environment strings are very large, the time
spent copying them can be much more than a normal user time slice.
So this change improves the interactivity of the rest of the system
when one process is doing an execve with very large arguments.
The CONFIG_STACK_GROWSDOWN variant of setup_arg_pages() does not
check the size of the argument/environment area on the stack.
When it is unworkably large, shift_arg_pages() hits its BUG_ON.
This is exploitable with a very large RLIMIT_STACK limit, to
create a crash pretty easily.
Check that the initial stack is not too large to make it possible
to map in any executable. We're not checking that the actual
executable (or intepreter, for binfmt_elf) will fit. So those
mappings might clobber part of the initial stack mapping. But
that is just userland lossage that userland made happen, not a
kernel problem.

This patch fixes machine crashes which occur when heavily exercising the
CPU hotplug codepaths on a 32-bit kernel. These crashes are caused by
AMD Erratum 383 and result in a fatal machine check exception. Here's
the scenario:
1. On 32-bit, the swapper_pg_dir page table is used as the initial page
table for booting a secondary CPU.
2. To make this work, swapper_pg_dir needs a direct mapping of physical
memory in it (the low mappings). By adding those low, large page (2M)
mappings (PAE kernel), we create the necessary conditions for Erratum
383 to occur.
3. Other CPUs which do not participate in the off- and onlining game may
use swapper_pg_dir while the low mappings are present (when leave_mm is
called). For all steps below, the CPU referred to is a CPU that is using
swapper_pg_dir, and not the CPU which is being onlined.
4. The presence of the low mappings in swapper_pg_dir can result
in TLB entries for addresses below __PAGE_OFFSET to be established
speculatively. These TLB entries are marked global and large.
5. When the CPU with such TLB entry switches to another page table, this
TLB entry remains because it is global.
6. The process then generates an access to an address covered by the
above TLB entry but there is a permission mismatch - the TLB entry
covers a large global page not accessible to userspace.
7. Due to this permission mismatch a new 4kb, user TLB entry gets
established. Further, Erratum 383 provides for a small window of time
where both TLB entries are present. This results in an uncorrectable
machine check exception signalling a TLB multimatch which panics the
machine.
There are two ways to fix this issue:
1. Always do a global TLB flush when a new cr3 is loaded and the
old page table was swapper_pg_dir. I consider this a hack hard
to understand and with performance implications
2. Do not use swapper_pg_dir to boot secondary CPUs like 64-bit
does.
This patch implements solution 2. It introduces a trampoline_pg_dir
which has the same layout as swapper_pg_dir with low_mappings. This page
table is used as the initial page table of the booting CPU. Later in the
bringup process, it switches to swapper_pg_dir and does a global TLB
flush. This fixes the crashes in our test cases.
-v2: switch to swapper_pg_dir right after entering start_secondary() so
that we are able to access percpu data which might not be mapped in the
trampoline page table.

Commit 2a6b69765ad794389f2fc3e14a0afa1a995221c2 (ACPI: Store NVS
state even when entering suspend to RAM) changed the ACPI suspend
to RAM code so that the NVS memory area is always unconditionally
saved during suspend and restored during resume, since some systems
evidently need that for the suspend-resume to work on them. However,
it turned out that this change broke suspend-resume on a few systems,
so commit 72ad5d77fb981963edae15eee8196c80238f5ed0 (ACPI / Sleep:
Allow the NVS saving to be skipped during suspend to RAM) introduced
the acpi_sleep=nonvs command line switch to allow their users to
work around this issue. To keep track of the systems that require
this workaround and to make the life of their users slightly easier
blacklist them in acpisleep_dmi_table[].

As early setup calls down to slb_initialize(), we must have kstack
initialised before checking "should we add a bolted SLB entry for our kstack?"
Failing to do so means stack access requires an SLB miss exception to refill
an entry dynamically, if the stack isn't accessible via SLB(0) (kernel text
& static data). It's not always allowable to take such a miss, and
intermittent crashes will result.
Primary CPUs don't have this issue; an SLB entry is not bolted for their
stack anyway (as that lives within SLB(0)). This patch therefore only

If the host is slow in reading data or doesn't read data at all,
blocking write calls not only blocked the program that called write()
but the entire guest itself.
To overcome this, let's not block till the host signals it has given
back the virtio ring element we passed it. Instead, send the buffer to
the host and return to userspace. This operation then becomes similar
to how non-blocking writes work, so let's use the existing code for this
path as well.
This code change also ensures blocking write calls do get blocked if
there's not enough room in the virtio ring as well as they don't return
