commit 03b8c7b623c80af264c4c8d6111e5c6289933666 upstream.

If an architecture has futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() implemented and there
is no runtime check necessary, allow to skip the test within futex_init().

This allows to get rid of some code which would always give the same result,
and also allows the compiler to optimize a couple of if statements away.

[ Upstream commit 14a0d635d18d0fb552dcc979d6d25106e6541f2e ]

This fixes a race which happens by freeing an object on the stack.
Quoting Julius:
&gt; The issue is
&gt; that it calls usbnet_terminate_urbs() before that, which temporarily
&gt; installs a waitqueue in dev-&gt;wait in order to be able to wait on the
&gt; tasklet to run and finish up some queues. The waiting itself looks
&gt; okay, but the access to 'dev-&gt;wait' is totally unprotected and can
&gt; race arbitrarily. I think in this case usbnet_bh() managed to succeed
&gt; it's dev-&gt;wait check just before usbnet_terminate_urbs() sets it back
&gt; to NULL. The latter then finishes and the waitqueue_t structure on its
&gt; stack gets overwritten by other functions halfway through the
&gt; wake_up() call in usbnet_bh().

The fix is to just not allocate the data structure on the stack.
As dev-&gt;wait is abused as a flag it also takes a runtime PM change
to fix this bug.

While it is true that getnstimeofday() uses about 40 cycles if TSC
is available, it can use 1600 cycles if hpet is the clocksource.

Switch to get_jiffies_64(), as this is more than enough, and
go back to 60 seconds periods.

[ Upstream commit ff0992e9036e9810e7cd45234fa32ca1e79750e2 ]

This is a context modified revert of commit 6a9612e2cb22
("net: cdc_ncm: remove ncm_parm field") which introduced
a NCM specification violation, causing setup errors for
some devices. These errors resulted in the device and
host disagreeing about shared settings, with complete
failure to communicate as the end result.

The NCM specification require that many of the NCM specific
control reuests are sent only while the NCM Data Interface
is in alternate setting 0. Reverting the commit ensures that
we follow this requirement.

Bug occurs because __tcp_checksum_complete_user() enables BH, assuming
it is running from softirq context.

Lars trace involved a NIC without RX checksum support but other points
are problematic as well, like the prequeue stuff.

Problem is triggered by a timer, that found socket being owned by user.

tcp_release_cb() should call tcp_write_timer_handler() or
tcp_delack_timer_handler() in the appropriate context :

BH disabled and socket lock held, but 'owned' field cleared,
as if they were running from timer handlers.

commit 0ab02ca8f887908152d1a96db5130fc661d36a1e upstream.

Setup cgroupfs like this:
  # mount -t cgroup -o cpuacct xxx /cgroup
  # mkdir /cgroup/sub1
  # mkdir /cgroup/sub2

Then run these two commands:

  # for ((; ;)) { mkdir /cgroup/sub2/tmp &amp;&amp; rmdir /mnt/sub2/tmp; } &amp;

After seconds you may see this warning:

---[ end trace 2d1577ec10cf80d0 ]---

It's because allocating/removing cgroup ID is not properly synchronized.

The bug was introduced when we converted cgroup_ida to cgroup_idr.
While synchronization is already done inside ida_simple_{get,remove}(),
users are responsible for concurrent calls to idr_{alloc,remove}().

tj: Refreshed on top of b58c89986a77 ("cgroup: fix error return from
cgroup_create()").

commit 668f9abbd4334e6c29fa8acd71635c4f9101caa7 upstream.

Commit bf6bddf1924e ("mm: introduce compaction and migration for
ballooned pages") introduces page_count(page) into memory compaction
which dereferences page-&gt;first_page if PageTail(page).

This results in a very rare NULL pointer dereference on the
aforementioned page_count(page).  Indeed, anything that does
compound_head(), including page_count() is susceptible to racing with
prep_compound_page() and seeing a NULL or dangling page-&gt;first_page
pointer.

This patch uses Andrea's implementation of compound_trans_head() that
deals with such a race and makes it the default compound_head()
implementation.  This includes a read memory barrier that ensures that
if PageTail(head) is true that we return a head page that is neither
NULL nor dangling.  The patch then adds a store memory barrier to
prep_compound_page() to ensure page-&gt;first_page is set.

This is the safest way to ensure we see the head page that we are
expecting, PageTail(page) is already in the unlikely() path and the
memory barriers are unfortunately required.

Hugetlbfs is the exception, we don't enforce a store memory barrier
during init since no race is possible.

Use cmpxchg() to atomically set i_flags instead of clearing out the
S_IMMUTABLE, S_APPEND, etc. flags and then setting them from the
EXT4_IMMUTABLE_FL, EXT4_APPEND_FL flags, since this opens up a race
where an immutable file has the immutable flag cleared for a brief
window of time.

<content type='text'>
commit d29adb34a94715174c88ca93e8aba955850c9bde upstream.

The PAUSEWR and PAUSERD flags are meant to stop the cluster from
processing writes and reads, respectively. The FULL flag is set when
the cluster determines that it is out of space, and will no longer
process writes.  PAUSEWR and PAUSERD are purely client-side settings
already implemented in userspace clients. The osd does nothing special
with these flags.

When the FULL flag is set, however, the osd responds to all writes
with -ENOSPC. For cephfs, this makes sense, but for rbd the block
layer translates this into EIO.  If a cluster goes from full to
non-full quickly, a filesystem on top of rbd will not behave well,
since some writes succeed while others get EIO.

Fix this by blocking any writes when the FULL flag is set in the osd
client. This is the same strategy used by userspace, so apply it by
default.  A follow-on patch makes this configurable.

__map_request() is called to re-target osd requests in case the
available osds changed.  Add a paused field to a ceph_osd_request, and
set it whenever an appropriate osd map flag is set.  Avoid queueing
paused requests in __map_request(), but force them to be resent if
they become unpaused.

Also subscribe to the next osd map from the monitor if any of these
flags are set, so paused requests can be unblocked as soon as
possible.
