Percpu allocator recorded the cpus which map to the first and last
units in pcpu_first/last_unit_cpu respectively and used them to
determine the address range of a chunk - e.g. it assumed that the
first unit has the lowest address in a chunk while the last unit has
the highest address.
This simply isn't true. Groups in a chunk can have arbitrary positive
or negative offsets from the previous one and there is no guarantee
that the first unit occupies the lowest offset while the last one the
highest.
Fix it by actually comparing unit offsets to determine cpus occupying
the lowest and highest offsets. Also, rename pcu_first/last_unit_cpu
to pcpu_low/high_unit_cpu to avoid confusion.
The chunk address range is used to flush cache on vmalloc area
map/unmap and decide whether a given address is in the first chunk by
per_cpu_ptr_to_phys() and the bug was discovered by invalid
per_cpu_ptr_to_phys() translation for crash_note.

This fixes the A->B/B->A locking dependency, see the warning below.
The function task_exit_notify() is called with (task_exit_notifier)
.rwsem set and then calls sync_buffer() which locks buffer_mutex. In
sync_start() the buffer_mutex was set to prevent notifier functions to
be started before sync_start() is finished. But when registering the
notifier, (task_exit_notifier).rwsem is locked too, but now in
different order than in sync_buffer(). In theory this causes a locking
dependency, what does not occur in practice since task_exit_notify()
is always called after the notifier is registered which means the lock
is already released.
However, after checking the notifier functions it turned out the
buffer_mutex in sync_start() is unnecessary. This is because
sync_buffer() may be called from the notifiers even if sync_start()
did not finish yet, the buffers are already allocated but empty. No
need to protect this with the mutex.
So we fix this theoretical locking dependency by removing buffer_mutex
in sync_start(). This is similar to the implementation before commit:
750d857 oprofile: fix crash when accessing freed task structs
which introduced the locking dependency.

In commit f8924e770e04 ("x86: unify mp_bus_info"), the 32-bit
and 64-bit versions of MP_bus_info were rearranged to match each
other better. Unfortunately it introduced a regression: prior
to that change we used to always set the mp_bus_not_pci bit,
then clear it if we found a PCI bus. After it, we set
mp_bus_not_pci for ISA buses, clear it for PCI buses, and leave
it alone otherwise.
In the cases of ISA and PCI, there's not much difference. But
ISA is not the only non-PCI bus, so it's better to always set
mp_bus_not_pci and clear it only for PCI.

In hundreds of days, the __cycles_2_ns calculation in sched_clock
has an overflow. cyc * per_cpu(cyc2ns, cpu) exceeds 64 bits, causing
the final value to become zero. We can solve this without losing

ktime_get and ktime_get_ts were calling timekeeping_get_ns()
but later they were not calling arch_gettimeoffset() so architectures
using this mechanism returned 0 ns when calling these functions.
This happened for example when running Busybox's ping which calls
syscall(__NR_clock_gettime, CLOCK_MONOTONIC, ts) which eventually
calls ktime_get. As a result the returned ping travel time was zero.
By returning '0' instead of 'EAGAIN' when the tests in xs_nospace() fail
to find evidence of socket congestion, we are making the RPC engine believe
that the message was incorrectly sent and so it disconnects the socket
instead of just retrying.

commit 6175ddf06b6172046a329e3abfd9c901a43efd2e optimized the mem*io
functions that have been used to send commands to the device. these

this patch emulates the memcpy_*_io functions via a loop to avoid these

This patch implements a workaround for PL310 erratum 769419. On
revisions of the PL310 prior to r3p2, the Store Buffer does not
automatically drain. This can cause normal, non-cacheable writes to be
retained when the memory system is idle, leading to suboptimal I/O
performance for drivers using coherent DMA.
This patch adds an optional wmb() call to the cpu_idle loop. On systems
with an outer cache, this causes an explicit flush of the store buffer.

Previously we claimed device ID 0x7450, regardless of the vendor, which is
clearly wrong. Now we'll claim that device ID only for AMD.
I suspect this was just a typo in the original code, but it's possible this
change will break shpchp on non-7450 AMD bridges. If so, we'll have to fix
them as we find them.
Characters with ASCII values greater than the size of
filename_rev_map[] are valid filename characters.
ecryptfs_decode_from_filename() will access kernel memory beyond
that array, and ecryptfs_parse_tag_70_packet() will then decrypt
those characters. The attacker, using the FNEK of the crafted file,
can then re-encrypt the characters to reveal the kernel memory past
the end of the filename_rev_map[] array. I expect low security
impact since this array is statically allocated in the text area,
and the amount of memory past the array that is accessible is
limited by the largest possible ASCII filename character.
This patch solves the issue reported by mhalcrow but with an
implementation suggested by Linus to simply extend the length of
filename_rev_map[] to 256. Characters greater than 0x7A are mapped to
0x00, which is how invalid characters less than 0x7A were previously
being handled.
Dan Rosenberg noted that various drivers return the struct with uncleared
fields. Instead of spending forever trying to stomp all the drivers that
get it wrong (and every new driver) do the job in one place.

The 8020i protocol (also 8070i and QIC-157) uses 12-byte commands;
shorter commands must be padded. Simon Detheridge reports that his
3-TB USB disk drive claims to use the 8020i protocol (which is
normally meant for ATAPI devices like CD drives), and because of its
large size, the disk drive requires the use of 16-byte commands.
However the usb_stor_pad12_command() routine in usb-storage always
sets the command length to 12, making the drive impossible to use.
Since the SFF-8020i specification allows for 16-byte commands in
future extensions, we may as well accept them. This patch (as1490)
changes usb_stor_pad12_command() to leave commands larger than 12
bytes alone rather than truncating them.

The /proc/vmallocinfo shows information about vmalloc allocations in vmlist
that is a linklist of vm_struct. It, however, may access pages field of
vm_struct where a page was not allocated. This results in a null pointer
access and leads to a kernel panic.
Why this happen:
In __vmalloc_node() called from vmalloc(), newly allocated vm_struct
is added to vmlist at __get_vm_area_node() and then, some fields of
vm_struct such as nr_pages and pages are set at __vmalloc_area_node(). In
other words, it is added to vmlist before it is fully initialized. At the
same time, when the /proc/vmallocinfo is read, it accesses the pages field
of vm_struct according to the nr_pages field at show_numa_info(). Thus, a
null pointer access happens.
Patch:
This patch adds newly allocated vm_struct to the vmlist *after* it is fully
initialized. So, it can avoid accessing the pages field with unallocated
page when show_numa_info() is called.

cfg.reorder_timeout = nla_get_msecs(info->attrs[L2TP_ATTR_RECV_TIMEOUT]);

conversion to a HZ-based value, this will not properly
reject attributes from userspace that aren't long enough
and might overrun the message.

The sunrpc layer keeps a cache of recently used credentials and
'unx_match' is used to find the credential which matches the current
process.
However unx_match allows a match when the cached credential has extra
groups at the end of uc_gids list which are not in the process group list.
So if a process with a list of (say) 4 group accesses a file and gains
access because of the last group in the list, then another process
with the same uid and gid, and a gid list being the first tree of the
gids of the original process tries to access the file, it will be
granted access even though it shouldn't as the wrong rpc credential
will be used.

tc_fill_qdisc() should not be called for builtin qdisc, or it
dereference a NULL pointer to get device ifindex.
Fix is to always use tc_qdisc_dump_ignore() before calling
tc_fill_qdisc().

When one of the SSID's length passed in a scan or sched_scan request
is larger than 255, there will be an overflow in the u8 that is used
to store the length before checking. This causes the check to fail
and we overrun the buffer when copying the SSID.
Fix this by checking the nl80211 attribute length before copying it to
the struct.
A remote user can provide a small value for the command size field in
the command header of an l2cap configuration request, resulting in an
integer underflow when subtracting the size of the configuration request
header. This results in copying a very large amount of data via
memcpy() and destroying the kernel heap. Check for underflow.

Commit a626ca6a6564 ("vm: fix vm_pgoff wrap in stack expansion") fixed
the case of an expanding mapping causing vm_pgoff wrapping when you had
downward stack expansion. But there was another case where IA64 and
PA-RISC expand mappings: upward expansion.
Commit 982134ba6261 ("mm: avoid wrapping vm_pgoff in mremap()") fixed
the case of a expanding mapping causing vm_pgoff wrapping when you used
mremap. But there was another case where we expand mappings hiding in
plain sight: the automatic stack expansion.
This fixes that case too.
This one also found by Robert Święcki, using his nasty system call
fuzzer tool. Good job.
If the NLM daemon is killed on the NFS server, we can currently end up
hanging forever on an 'unlock' request, instead of aborting. Basically,
if the rpcbind request fails, or the server keeps returning garbage, we
really want to quit instead of retrying.
All of those are rw-r--r-- and all are broken for suid - if you open
a file before the target does suid-root exec, you'll be still able
to access it. For personality it's not a big deal, but for syscall
and stack it's a real problem.
Fix: check that task is tracable for you at the time of read().

watchdog: mtx1-wdt: fix build failure
Commit 6d86a0ee (watchdog: mtx1-wdt: request gpio before using it) was
backported from upstream. The patch is using a gpiolib call which is only
available in kernel 2.6.34+. Fix build by using the "old" gpiolib API
instead.
This adds a mechanism to resume selected IRQs during syscore_resume
instead of dpm_resume_noirq.
Under Xen we need to resume IRQs associated with IPIs early enough
that the resched IPI is unmasked and we can therefore schedule
ourselves out of the stop_machine where the suspend/resume takes
place.
This issue was introduced by 676dc3cf5bc3 "xen: Use IRQF_FORCE_RESUME".
Back ported to 2.6.32 (which lacks syscore support) by calling the relavant
resume function directly from sysdev_resume).

vcpu->last_guest_tsc is updated in vcpu_enter_guest() and kvm_arch_vcpu_put()
by getting the last value of the TSC from the guest.
On reset, the SeaBIOS resets the TSC to 0, which triggers a bug on the next
call to kvm_write_guest_time(): Since vcpu->hw_clock.tsc_timestamp still
contains the old value before the reset, "max_kernel_ns = vcpu->last_guest_tsc
- vcpu->hw_clock.tsc_timestamp" gets negative. Since the variable is u64, it
gets translated to a large positive value.
For completeness, here are the values for my 3 GHz CPU:
vcpu->hv_clock.tsc_shift =-1
vcpu->hv_clock.tsc_to_system_mul =2_863_019_502
This makes the guest kernel crawl very slowly when clocksource=kvmclock is
used: sleeps take way longer than expected and don't match wall clock any more.
The times printed with printk() don't match real time and the reboot often
stalls for long times.
In linux-git this isn't a problem, since on every MSR_IA32_TSC write
vcpu->arch.hv_clock.tsc_timestamp is reset to 0, which disables above logic.
The code there is only in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c, since much of the kvm-clock
related code has been refactured for 2.6.37: 99e3e30a arch/x86/kvm/x86.c

vcpu->arch.hv_clock.tsc_timestamp = 0;
A user reported a kernel bug when running a particular program that did
the following:
created 32 threads
- each thread took a mutex, grabbed a global offset, added a buffer size
to that offset, released the lock
- read from the given offset in the file
- created a new thread to do the same
- exited
The result is that cfq's close cooperator logic would trigger, as the
threads were issuing I/O within the mean seek distance of one another.
This workload managed to routinely trigger a use after free bug when
walking the list of merge candidates for a particular cfqq
(cfqq->new_cfqq). The logic used for merging queues looks like this:
/* Avoid a circular list and skip interim queue merges */
while ((__cfqq = new_cfqq->new_cfqq)) {
if (__cfqq == cfqq)
return;
new_cfqq = __cfqq;
}
process_refs = cfqq_process_refs(cfqq);
/*
* If the process for the cfqq has gone away, there is no
* sense in merging the queues.
*/
if (process_refs == 0)
return;
/*
* Merge in the direction of the lesser amount of work.
*/
new_process_refs = cfqq_process_refs(new_cfqq);
if (new_process_refs >= process_refs) {
cfqq->new_cfqq = new_cfqq;
atomic_add(process_refs, &new_cfqq->ref);
} else {
new_cfqq->new_cfqq = cfqq;
atomic_add(new_process_refs, &cfqq->ref);
}
}
When a merge candidate is found, we add the process references for the
queue with less references to the queue with more. The actual merging
of queues happens when a new request is issued for a given cfqq. In the
case of the test program, it only does a single pread call to read in
1MB, so the actual merge never happens.
Normally, this is fine, as when the queue exits, we simply drop the
references we took on the other cfqqs in the merge chain:
/*
* If this queue was scheduled to merge with another queue, be
* sure to drop the reference taken on that queue (and others in
* the merge chain). See cfq_setup_merge and cfq_merge_cfqqs.
*/
__cfqq = cfqq->new_cfqq;
while (__cfqq) {
if (__cfqq == cfqq) {
WARN(1, "cfqq->new_cfqq loop detected\n");
break;
}
next = __cfqq->new_cfqq;
cfq_put_queue(__cfqq);
__cfqq = next;
}
However, there is a hole in this logic. Consider the following (and
keep in mind that each I/O keeps a reference to the cfqq):
q1->new_cfqq = q2 // q2 now has 2 process references
q3->new_cfqq = q2 // q2 now has 3 process references
// the process associated with q2 exits
// q2 now has 2 process references
// queue 1 exits, drops its reference on q2
// q2 now has 1 process reference
// q3 exits, so has 0 process references, and hence drops its references
// to q2, which leaves q2 also with 0 process references
q4 comes along and wants to merge with q3
q3->new_cfqq still points at q2! We follow that link and end up at an
already freed cfqq.
So, the fix is to not follow a merge chain if the top-most queue does
not have a process reference, otherwise any queue in the chain could be
already freed. I also changed the logic to disallow merging with a
queue that does not have any process references. Previously, we did
this check for one of the merge candidates, but not the other. That
doesn't really make sense.

cfq_queues are merged if they are issuing requests within the mean seek
distance of one another. This patch detects when the coopearting stops and
breaks the queues back up.
The flag used to indicate that a cfqq was allowed to jump ahead in the
scheduling order due to submitting a request close to the queue that
just executed. Since closely cooperating queues are now merged, the flag
holds little meaning. Change it to indicate that multiple queues were
merged. This will later be used to allow the breaking up of merged queues
when they are no longer cooperating.
When cooperating cfq_queues are detected currently, they are allowed to
skip ahead in the scheduling order. It is much more efficient to
automatically share the cfq_queue data structure between cooperating processes.
Performance of the read-test2 benchmark (which is written to emulate the
dump(8) utility) went from 12MB/s to 90MB/s on my SATA disk. NFS servers
with multiple nfsd threads also saw performance increases.
async cfq_queue's are already shared between processes within the same
priority, and forthcoming patches will change the mapping of cic to sync
cfq_queue from 1:1 to 1:N. So, calculate the seekiness of a process
based on the cfq_queue instead of the cfq_io_context.
ubd_file_size() cannot use ubd_dev->cow.file because at this time
ubd_dev->cow.file is not initialized.
Therefore, ubd_file_size() will always report a wrong disk size when
COW files are used.
Reading from /dev/ubd* would crash the kernel.
We have to read the correct disk size from the COW file's backing
file.

To configure pads during the initialisation a set of special constants
is used, e.g.
#define MX25_PAD_FEC_MDIO__FEC_MDIO IOMUX_PAD(0x3c4, 0x1cc, 0x10, 0, 0, PAD_CTL_HYS | PAD_CTL_PUS_22K_UP)
The problem is that no pull-up/down is getting activated unless both
PAD_CTL_PUE (pull-up enable) and PAD_CTL_PKE (pull/keeper module
enable) set. This is clearly stated in the i.MX25 datasheet and is
confirmed by the measurements on hardware. This leads to some rather
hard to understand bugs such as misdetecting an absent ethernet PHY (a
real bug i had), unstable data transfer etc. This might affect mx25,
mx35, mx50, mx51 and mx53 SoCs.
It's reasonable to expect that if the pullup value is specified, the
intention was to have it actually active, so we implicitly add the
needed bits.
This device is not using the proper demod IF. Instead of using the
IF macro, it is specifying a IF frequency. This doesn't work, as xc3028
needs to load an specific SCODE for the tuner. In this case, there's
no IF table for 5 MHz.
If the bus has been reset on resume, set the alternate setting to 0.
This should be the default value, but some devices crash or otherwise
misbehave if they don't receive a SET_INTERFACE request before any other
video control request.
Microdia's 0c45:6437 camera has been found to require this change or it
will stop sending video data after resume.
