Its an skb_over_panic BUG halt that results from processing an init chunk in
which too many of its variable length parameters are in some way malformed.
The problem is in sctp_process_unk_param:
if (NULL == *errp)
*errp = sctp_make_op_error_space(asoc, chunk,
ntohs(chunk->chunk_hdr->length));
if (*errp) {
sctp_init_cause(*errp, SCTP_ERROR_UNKNOWN_PARAM,
WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length)));
sctp_addto_chunk(*errp,
WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length)),
param.v);
When we allocate an error chunk, we assume that the worst case scenario requires
that we have chunk_hdr->length data allocated, which would be correct nominally,
given that we call sctp_addto_chunk for the violating parameter. Unfortunately,
we also, in sctp_init_cause insert a sctp_errhdr_t structure into the error
chunk, so the worst case situation in which all parameters are in violation
requires chunk_hdr->length+(sizeof(sctp_errhdr_t)*param_count) bytes of data.
The result of this error is that a deliberately malformed packet sent to a
listening host can cause a remote DOS, described in CVE-2010-1173:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2010-1173
I've tested the below fix and confirmed that it fixes the issue. We move to a
strategy whereby we allocate a fixed size error chunk and ignore errors we don't
have space to report. Tested by me successfully

commit 2acf2c261b823d9d9ed954f348b97620297a36b5 upstream.
With delayed allocation we lock the page in write_cache_pages() and
try to build an in memory extent of contiguous blocks. This is needed
so that we can get large contiguous blocks request. If range_cyclic
mode is enabled, write_cache_pages() will loop back to the 0 index if
no I/O has been done yet, and try to start writing from the beginning
of the range. That causes an attempt to take the page lock of lower
index page while holding the page lock of higher index page, which can
cause a dead lock with another writeback thread.
The solution is to implement the range_cyclic behavior in
ext4_da_writepages() instead.

commit 22208dedbd7626e5fc4339c417f8d24cc21f79d7 upstream.
The range_cyclic writeback mode uses the address_space writeback_index
as the start index for writeback. With delayed allocation we were
updating writeback_index wrongly resulting in highly fragmented file.
This patch reduces the number of extents reduced from 4000 to 27 for a
3GB file.

commit 8e48dcfbd7c0892b4cfd064d682cc4c95a29df32 upstream.
Make a copy of write_cache_pages() for the benefit of
ext4_da_writepages(). This allows us to simplify the code some, and
will allow us to further customize the code in future patches.
There are some nasty hacks in write_cache_pages(), which Linus has
(correctly) characterized as vile. I've just copied it into
write_cache_pages_da(), without trying to clean those bits up lest I
break something in the ext4's delalloc implementation, which is a bit
fragile right now. This will allow Dave Chinner to clean up
write_cache_pages() in mm/page-writeback.c, without worrying about
breaking ext4. Eventually write_cache_pages_da() will go away when I
rewrite ext4's delayed allocation and create a general
ext4_writepages() which is used for all of ext4's writeback. Until
now this is the lowest risk way to clean up the core
write_cache_pages() function.

commit 91803b499cca2fe558abad709ce83dc896b80950 upstream.
I/O errors can happen due to temporary failures, like multipath
errors or losing network contact with the iSCSI server. Because
of that, the VM will retry readpage on the page.
However, do_generic_file_read does not clear PG_error. This
causes the system to be unable to actually use the data in the
page cache page, even if the subsequent readpage completes
successfully!
The function filemap_fault has had a ClearPageError before
readpage forever. This patch simply adds the same to
do_generic_file_read.

commit e2218350465e7e0931676b4849b594c978437bce upstream.
When the user sets the block device to readwrite then the mddev should
follow suit. Otherwise, the BUG_ON in md_write_start() will be set to
trigger.
The reverse direction, setting mddev->ro to match a set readonly
request, can be ignored because the blkdev level readonly flag precludes
the need to have mddev->ro set correctly. Nevermind the fact that
setting mddev->ro to 1 may fail if the array is in use.

commit af3a2cd6b8a479345786e7fe5e199ad2f6240e56 upstream.
read_balance uses a "unsigned long" for a sector number which
will get truncated beyond 2TB.
This will cause read-balancing to be non-optimal, and can cause
data to be read from the 'wrong' branch during a resync. This has a
very small chance of returning wrong data.

commit 964147d5c86d63be79b442c30f3783d49860c078 upstream.
There is a very small race window when writing to a
RAID1 such that if a device is marked faulty at exactly the wrong
time, the write-in-progress will not be sent to the device,
but the bitmap (if present) will be updated to say that
the write was sent.
Then if the device turned out to still be usable as was re-added
to the array, the bitmap-based-resync would skip resyncing that
block, possibly leading to corruption. This would only be a problem
if no further writes were issued to that area of the device (i.e.
that bitmap chunk).
Suitable for any pending -stable kernel.

commit aef40e87d866355ffd279ab21021de733242d0d5 upstream.
Currently we always call start-cpu irrespective of if the CPU is
stopped or not. Unfortunatley on POWER7, firmware seems to not like
start-cpu being called when a cpu already been started. This was not
the case on POWER6 and earlier.
This patch checks to see if the CPU is stopped or not via an
query-cpu-stopped-state call, and only calls start-cpu on CPUs which
are stopped.
This fixes a bug with kexec on POWER7 on PHYP where only the primary
thread would make it to the second kernel.

commit 637a99022fb119b90fb281715d13172f0394fc12 upstream.
Commit 0119536c, which added the assembly version of strncmp to
powerpc, mentions that it adds two instructions to the version from
boot/string.S to allow it to handle len=0. Unfortunately, it doesn't
always return 0 when that is the case. The length is passed in r5, but
the return value is passed back in r3. In certain cases, this will
happen to work. Otherwise it will pass back the address of the first
string as the return value.
This patch lifts the len <= 0 handling code from memcpy to handle that
case.

commit 15ddb4aec54422ead137b03ea4e9b3f5db3f7cc2 upstream.
The /proc/fs/nfsd/versions file calls nfsd_vers() to check whether
the particular nfsd version is present/available. The problem is
that once I turn off e.g. NFSD-V4 this call returns -1 which is
true from the callers POV which is wrong.
The proposal is to report false in that case.

commit e7ecd435692ca9bde9d124be30b3a26e672ea6c2 upstream.
There are ATAPI devices which raise AN when hit by commands issued by
open(). This leads to infinite loop of AN -> MEDIA_CHANGE uevent ->
udev open() to check media -> AN.
Both ACS and SerialATA standards don't define in which case ATAPI
devices are supposed to raise or not raise AN. They both list media
insertion event as a possible use case for ATAPI ANs but there is no
clear description of what constitutes such events. As such, it seems
a bit too naive to export ANs directly to userland as MEDIA_CHANGE
events without further verification (which should behave similarly to
windows as it apparently is the only thing that some hardware vendors
are testing against).
This patch adds libata.atapi_an module parameter and disables ATAPI AN
by default for now.

commit 731572d39fcd3498702eda4600db4c43d51e0b26 upstream.
Junjiro R. Okajima reported a problem where knfsd crashes if you are
using it to export shmemfs objects and run strict overcommit. In this
situation the current->mm based modifier to the overcommit goes through a
NULL pointer.
We could simply check for NULL and skip the modifier but we've caught
other real bugs in the past from mm being NULL here - cases where we did
need a valid mm set up (eg the exec bug about a year ago).
To preserve the checks and get the logic we want shuffle the checking
around and add a new helper to the vm_ security wrappers
Also fix a current->mm reference in nommu that should use the passed mm

commit 1c010ff8912cbc08d80e865aab9c32b6b00c527d upstream.
The functionality bit vector is always returned as a little-endian
32-bit number by the device, so it must be byte-swapped to the host
endianness.
On the other hand, the delay value is handled by the USB stack, so no
byte swapping is needed on our side.

commit b0bcdd3cd0adb85a7686b396ba50493871b1135c upstream.
Different motherboards have different PNP declarations for
W83781D/W83782D chips. Some declare the whole range of I/O ports (8
ports), some declare only the useful ports (2 ports at offset 5) and
some declare fancy ranges, for example 4 ports at offset 4. To
properly handle all cases, request all ports individually for probing.
After we have determined that we really have a W83781D or W83782D
chip, the useful port range will be requested again, as a single
block.
I did not see a board which needs this yet, but I know of one for lm78

commit 22945e4a1c7454c97f5d8aee1ef526c83fef3223 upstream.
A race between svc_revisit and svc_delete_xprt can result in
deferred requests holding references on a transport that can never be
recovered because dead transports are not enqueued for subsequent
processing.
Check for XPT_DEAD in revisit to clean up completing deferrals on a dead
transport and sweep a transport's deferred queue to do the same for queued
but unprocessed deferrals.

commit 534ead709235b967b659947c55d9130873a432c4 upstream.
libata currently doesn't retry if a command fails with AC_ERR_INVALID
assuming that retrying won't get it any further even if retried.
However, a failure may be classified as invalid through hardware
glitch (incorrect reading of the error register or firmware bug) and
there isn't whole lot to gain by not retrying as actually invalid
commands will be failed immediately. Also, commands serving FS IOs
are extremely unlikely to be invalid. Retry FS IOs even if it's
marked invalid.
Transient and incorrect invalid failure was seen while debugging
firmware related issue on Samsung n130 on bko#14314.

commit b1d4b390ea4bb480e65974ce522a04022608a8df upstream.
Some FSC hardware monitoring chips (Syleus at least) doesn't like
quick writes we typically use to probe for I2C chips. Use a regular
byte read instead for the address they live at (0x73). These are the
only known chips living at this address on PC systems.
For clarity, this fix should not be needed for kernels 2.6.30 and
later, as we started instantiating the hwmon devices explicitly based
on DMI data. Still, this fix is valuable in the following two cases:
* Support for recent FSC chips on older kernels. The DMI-based device
instantiation is more difficult to backport than the device support
itself.
* Case where the DMI-based device instantiation fails, whatever the
reason. We fall back to probing in that case, so it should work.
This fixes kernel bug #15634:

commit 356e76b855bdbfd8d1c5e75bcf0c6bf0dfe83496 upstream.
NFSv4 mounts ignore the rsize and wsize mount options, and always use
the default transfer size for both. This seems to be because all
NFSv4 mounts are now cloned, and the cloning logic doesn't copy the
rsize and wsize settings from the parent nfs_server.
I tested Fedora's 2.6.32.11-99 and it seems to have this problem as
well, so I'm guessing that .33, .32, and perhaps older kernels have
this issue as well.

commit d9e80b7de91db05c1c4d2e5ebbfd70b3b3ba0e0f upstream.
If dentry found stale happens to be a root of disconnected tree, we
can't d_drop() it; its d_hash is actually part of s_anon and d_drop()
would simply hide it from shrink_dcache_for_umount(), leading to
all sorts of fun, including busy inodes on umount and oopsen after
that.
Bug had been there since at least 2006 (commit c636eb already has it),
so it's definitely -stable fodder.

commit 2bc3c1179c781b359d4f2f3439cb3df72afc17fc upstream.
When read_buf is called to move over to the next page in the pagelist
of an NFSv4 request, it sets argp->end to essentially a random
number, certainly not an address within the page which argp->p now
points to. So subsequent calls to READ_BUF will think there is much
more than a page of spare space (the cast to u32 ensures an unsigned
comparison) so we can expect to fall off the end of the second
page.
We never encountered thsi in testing because typically the only
operations which use more than two pages are write-like operations,
which have their own decoding logic. Something like a getattr after a
write may cross a page boundary, but it would be very unusual for it to
cross another boundary after that.

This is a merge of two mainline commits, intended
for stable@kernel.org submission for 2.6.27 kernel.
commit f833bab87fca5c3ce13778421b1365845843b976
and
commit 918aae42aa9b611a3663b16ae849fdedc67c2292
Changelog of both:
Currently clockevents_notify() is called with interrupts enabled at
some places and interrupts disabled at some other places.
This results in a deadlock in this scenario.
cpu A holds clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs enabled
cpu B waits for clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs disabled
cpu C doing set_mtrr() which will try to rendezvous of all the cpus.
This will result in C and A come to the rendezvous point and waiting
for B. B is stuck forever waiting for the spinlock and thus not
reaching the rendezvous point.
Fix the clockevents code so that clockevents_lock is taken with
interrupts disabled and thus avoid the above deadlock.
Also call lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() on the destination cpu so
that we avoid calling smp_call_function() in the clockevents notifier
chain.
This issue left us wondering if we need to change the MTRR rendezvous
logic to use stop machine logic (instead of smp_call_function) or add
a check in spinlock debug code to see if there are other spinlocks
which gets taken under both interrupts enabled/disabled conditions.

I got following warning on ia64 box:
In function 'acpi_processor_power_verify':

incompatible pointer type
This smp_call_function_single() was introduced by a commit
f833bab87fca5c3ce13778421b1365845843b976:
The problem is that the lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() has 2 versions:
One is real code that modified in the above commit, and the other is NOP
code that used when !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3:
static void lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast(struct acpi_processor *pr) { }
So I got warning because of !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3.
We really want to do nothing here on !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3, so
modify lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() of real version to use
smp_call_function_single() in it.

trace_free_page()
[No matching upstream git commit id as it was fixed differently due to a
rewrite of the tracing code there.]
For normal case, the code in trace_free_page() do once more substraction
on tracing_pages_allocated, but for CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE it doesn't
take the freed page into account. That's not consistent with
trace_alloc_page(). Well, for there are no message related with this,
so we cannot observe its incorrect state when the kernel doesn't define
"CONFIG_TRACER_MAX_TRACE". If you add some pr_info() as
trace_alloc_page(), you may notice it.

commit 030ba6bc67b4f2bc5cd174f57785a1745c929abe upstream.
During block reservation if we don't have enough blocks left, retry
block reservation with smaller block counts. This makes sure we try
fallocate and DIO with smaller request size and don't fail early. The
delayed allocation reservation cannot try with smaller block count. So
retry block reservation to handle temporary disk full conditions. Also
print free blocks details if we fail block allocation during writepages.

commit a30d542a0035b886ffaafd0057ced0a2b28c3a4f upstream.
With delayed allocation we need to make sure block are reserved before
we attempt to allocate them. Otherwise we get block allocation failure
(ENOSPC) during writepages which cannot be handled. This would mean
silent data loss (We do a printk stating data will be lost). This patch
updates the DIO and fallocate code path to do block reservation before
block allocation. This is needed to make sure parallel DIO and fallocate
request doesn't take block out of delayed reserve space.
When free blocks count go below a threshold we switch to a slow patch
which looks at other CPU's accumulated percpu counter values.

commit 1f7c14c62ce63805f9574664a6c6de3633d4a354 upstream.
percpu_counter_sum_and_set() and percpu_counter_sum() is the same except
the former updates the global counter after accounting. Since we are
taking the fbc->lock to calculate the precise value of the counter in
percpu_counter_sum() anyway, it should simply set fbc->count too, as the
percpu_counter_sum_and_set() does.
This patch merges these two interfaces into one.
