perf probe: Fix error propagation leading to segfault
There are two hunks in this patch that stops probe processing as soon as one
error is found, breaking out of loops, the other fix an error propagation that
should return a negative error number but instead was returning the result of
"ret < 0", which is 1 and thus made several error checks fail because they test
agains < 0.
The problem could be triggered by asking for a variable that was optimized out,
fact that should stop the whole probe processing but instead was segfaulting
while installing broken probes:
[root@emilia ~]# probe perf_mmap:55 user_lock_limit
Failed to find the location of user_lock_limit at this address.
Perhaps, it has been optimized out.
Failed to find 'user_lock_limit' in this function.
Add new events:
probe:perf_mmap (on perf_mmap:55 with user_lock_limit)
probe:perf_mmap_1 (on perf_mmap:55 with user_lock_limit)
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[root@emilia ~]# perf probe -l

probe:perf_mmap_1 (on perf_mmap:55@git/linux/kernel/perf_event.c with user_lock_limit)
[root@emilia ~]#
After the fix:
[root@emilia ~]# probe perf_mmap:55 user_lock_limit
Failed to find the location of user_lock_limit at this address.
Perhaps, it has been optimized out.
Failed to find 'user_lock_limit' in this function.

perf tools: Makefile: Remove various and sundry cruft
This commit squashes several commits that remove:
unnecessary uname calls
`sh -c'
BUILT_INS and QUIET_BUILT_IN
They have no effect, and the `fixup-builtins' and `check-builtins.sh'
scripts don't even exist.
RUNTIME_PREFIX
It's currently never anything but unset, and it's apparently
only meaningful when Microsoft Windows is the operating system
(according to the source for git).
TEST_PROGRAMS
EXTRA_PROGRAMS
unused SHELL_PATH_SQ portions
unused test for V=2
useless exports
Only when `V' is undefined (that is, only when the value of `V'
is empty) is `export V' performed, which just has the effect of
placing the empty-valued variable `V' in the environment.
The only other script to make use of `V' is `Documentation/Makefile',
which only checks whether `V' is undefined (that is, whether the value
of `V' is empty); hence, the `export V' has no effect whatsoever.
Similarly, `export QUIET_GEN' is useless because it will only have
a non-empty value when `V' has an empty-value, and when `V' has
an empty-value, `QUIET_GEN' is always explicitly set in every
script in which it is used.
`DESTDIR' is only ever defined by the user via the environment
or the command line, both of which are automatically exported
to sub-make processes. Furthermore, no non-make sub-scripts
make use of `DESTDIR' as an environment variable.
No other scripts use `perfexec_instdir'.
unused QUIET_SUBDIR{0,1}

perf: make perf stat print user provided full event names
This patch changes the way perf stat prints event names at the end of a
run. Until now, it was trying to reconstruct the event name from its
encoding. The problem is that it would only print generic events without
their modifiers (u, k, pp).
This patch saves the event name as passed by the user in the evsel
struct and uses it to print the final event name.
This would also work in case perf is linked with a library (such as
libpfm4) which provides full PMU event tables.

Originally adopted by Franck Bui-Huu's patch which shows file name

The ui operations so far were used by just one thread, but 'perf top

The cgroup filesystem has to be mounted. Given a cgroup name, the perf tool
finds the corresponding directory in the cgroup filesystem and opens it. It

pci: use security_capable() when checking capablities during config space read
This reintroduces commit 47970b1b which was subsequently reverted
as f00eaeea. The original change was broken and caused X startup
failures and generally made privileged processes incapable of reading
device dependent config space. The normal capable() interface returns
true on success, but the LSM interface returns 0 on success. This thinko
is now fixed in this patch, and has been confirmed to work properly.
So, once again...Eric Paris noted that commit de139a3 ("pci: check caps
from sysfs file open to read device dependent config space") caused the
capability check to bypass security modules and potentially auditing.
Rectify this by calling security_capable() when checking the open file's
capabilities for config space reads.

space_args.space_slots is an unsigned 64-bit type controlled by a
possibly unprivileged caller. The comparison as a signed int type
allows providing values that are treated as negative and cause the
subsequent allocation size calculation to wrap, or be truncated to 0.
By providing a size that's truncated to 0, kmalloc() will return
ZERO_SIZE_PTR. It's also possible to provide a value smaller than the
slot count. The subsequent loop ignores the allocation size when
copying data in, resulting in a heap overflow or write to ZERO_SIZE_PTR.
The fix changes the slot count type and comparison typecast to u64,
which prevents truncation or signedness errors, and also ensures that we
don't copy more data than we've allocated in the subsequent loop. Note
that zero-size allocations are no longer possible since there is already
an explicit check for space_args.space_slots being 0 and truncation of
this value is no longer an issue.

Btrfs: don't release pages when we can't clear the uptodate bits
Btrfs tracks uptodate state in an rbtree as well as in the
page bits. This is supposed to enable us to use block sizes other than
the page size, but there are a few parts still missing before that
completely works.
But, our readpage routine trusts this additional range based tracking
of uptodateness, much in the same way the buffer head up to date bits
are trusted for the other filesystems.
The problem is that sometimes we need to allocate memory in order to
split records in the rbtree, even when we are just clearing bits. This
can be difficult when our clearing function is called GFP_ATOMIC, which
can happen in the releasepage path.
So, what happens today looks like this:
releasepage called with GFP_ATOMIC
btrfs_releasepage calls clear_extent_bit
clear_extent_bit fails to allocate ram, leaving the up to date bit set
btrfs_releasepage returns success
The end result is the page being gone, but btrfs thinking the range is
up to date. Later on if someone tries to read that same page, the
btrfs readpage code will return immediately thinking the page is already
up to date.
This commit fixes things to fail the releasepage when we can't clear the
extent state bits. It covers both data pages and metadata tree blocks.

Btrfs: fix page->private races
There is a race where btrfs_releasepage can drop the
page->private contents just as alloc_extent_buffer is setting
up pages for metadata. Because of how the Btrfs page flags work,
this results in us skipping the crc on the page during IO.
This patch sovles the race by waiting until after the extent buffer
is inserted into the radix tree before it sets page private.

nfsd4: acquire only one lease per file
Instead of acquiring one lease each time another client opens a file,
nfsd can acquire just one lease to represent all of them, and reference
count it to determine when to release it.
This fixes a regression introduced by c45821d263a8a5109d69a9e8942b8d65bcd5f31a "locks: eliminate fl_mylease
callback": after that patch, only the struct file * is used to determine
who owns a given lease. But since we recently converted the server to
share a single struct file per open, if we acquire multiple leases on
the same file from nfsd, it then becomes impossible on unlocking a lease
to determine which of those leases (all of whom share the same struct
file *) we meant to remove.

NFSD: memory corruption due to writing beyond the stat array
If nfsd fails to find an exported via NFS file in the readahead cache, it
should increment corresponding nfsdstats counter (ra_depth[10]), but due to a
bug it may instead write to ra_depth[11], corrupting the following field.
In a kernel with NFSDv4 compiled in the corruption takes the form of an
increment of a counter of the number of NFSv4 operation 0's received; since
there is no operation 0, this is harmless.
In a kernel with NFSDv4 disabled it corrupts whatever happens to be in the
memory beyond nfsdstats.

dma: ipu_idmac: do not lose valid received data in the irq handler
Currently when two or more buffers are queued by the camera driver
and so the double buffering is enabled in the idmac, we lose one
frame comming from CSI since the reporting of arrival of the first
frame is deferred by the DMAIC_7_EOF interrupt handler and reporting
of the arrival of the last frame is not done at all. So when requesting
N frames from the image sensor we actually receive N - 1 frames in
user space.
The reason for this behaviour is that the DMAIC_7_EOF interrupt
handler misleadingly assumes that the CUR_BUF flag is pointing to the
buffer used by the IDMAC. Actually it is not the case since the
CUR_BUF flag will be flipped by the FSU when the FSU is sending the
<TASK>_NEW_FRM_RDY signal when new frame data is delivered by the CSI.
When sending this singal, FSU updates the DMA_CUR_BUF and the
DMA_BUFx_RDY flags: the DMA_CUR_BUF is flipped, the DMA_BUFx_RDY
is cleared, indicating that the frame data is beeing written by
the IDMAC to the pointed buffer. DMA_BUFx_RDY is supposed to be
set to the ready state again by the MCU, when it has handled the
received data. DMAIC_7_CUR_BUF flag won't be flipped here by the
IPU, so waiting for this event in the EOF interrupt handler is wrong.
Actually there is no spurious interrupt as described in the comments,
this is the valid DMAIC_7_EOF interrupt indicating reception of the
frame from CSI.
The patch removes code that waits for flipping of the DMAIC_7_CUR_BUF
flag in the DMAIC_7_EOF interrupt handler. As the comment in the
current code denotes, this waiting doesn't help anyway. As a result
of this removal the reporting of the first arrived frame is not
deferred to the time of arrival of the next frame and the drivers
software flag 'ichan->active_buffer' is in sync with DMAIC_7_CUR_BUF
flag, so the reception of all requested frames works.
This has been verified on the hardware which is triggering the
image sensor by the programmable state machine, allowing to
obtain exact number of frames. On this hardware we do not tolerate
losing frames.
This patch also removes resetting the DMA_BUFx_RDY flags of
all channels in ipu_disable_channel() since transfers on other
DMA channels might be triggered by other running tasks and the
buffers should always be ready for data sending or reception.
