2011-08-29igb: Fix lack of flush after register write and before delayCarolyn Wyborny
commit 064b43304ed8ede8e13ff7b4338d09fd37bcffb1 upstream. Register writes followed by a delay are required to have a flush before the delay in order to commit the values to the register. Without the flush, the code following the delay may not function correctly.

2011-08-29x86-32, vdso: On system call restart after SYSENTER, use int $0x80H. Peter Anvin
commit 7ca0758cdb7c241cb4e0490a8d95f0eb5b861daf upstream. When we enter a 32-bit system call via SYSENTER or SYSCALL, we shuffle the arguments to match the int $0x80 calling convention. This was probably a design mistake, but it's what it is now. This causes errors if the system call as to be restarted. For SYSENTER, we have to invoke the instruction from the vdso as the return address is hardcoded. Accordingly, we can simply replace the jump in the vdso with an int $0x80 instruction and use the slower entry point for a post-restart.

2011-08-29futex: Fix regression with read only mappingsShawn Bohrer
commit 9ea71503a8ed9184d2d0b8ccc4d269d05f7940ae upstream. commit 7485d0d3758e8e6491a5c9468114e74dc050785d (futexes: Remove rw parameter from get_futex_key()) in 2.6.33 fixed two problems: First, It prevented a loop when encountering a ZERO_PAGE. Second, it fixed RW MAP_PRIVATE futex operations by forcing the COW to occur by unconditionally performing a write access get_user_pages_fast() to get the page. The commit also introduced a user-mode regression in that it broke futex operations on read-only memory maps. For example, this breaks workloads that have one or more reader processes doing a FUTEX_WAIT on a futex within a read only shared file mapping, and a writer processes that has a writable mapping issuing the FUTEX_WAKE. This fixes the regression for valid futex operations on RO mappings by trying a RO get_user_pages_fast() when the RW get_user_pages_fast() fails. This change makes it necessary to also check for invalid use cases, such as anonymous RO mappings (which can never change) and the ZERO_PAGE which the commit referenced above was written to address. This patch does restore the original behavior with RO MAP_PRIVATE mappings, which have inherent user-mode usage problems and don't really make sense. With this patch performing a FUTEX_WAIT within a RO MAP_PRIVATE mapping will be successfully woken provided another process updates the region of the underlying mapped file. However, the mmap() man page states that for a MAP_PRIVATE mapping: It is unspecified whether changes made to the file after the mmap() call are visible in the mapped region. So user-mode users attempting to use futex operations on RO MAP_PRIVATE mappings are depending on unspecified behavior. Additionally a RO MAP_PRIVATE mapping could fail to wake up in the following case. Thread-A: call futex(FUTEX_WAIT, memory-region-A). get_futex_key() return inode based key. sleep on the key Thread-B: call mprotect(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, memory-region-A) Thread-B: write memory-region-A. COW happen. This process's memory-region-A become related to new COWed private (ie PageAnon=1) page. Thread-B: call futex(FUETX_WAKE, memory-region-A). get_futex_key() return mm based key. IOW, we fail to wake up Thread-A. Once again doing something like this is just silly and users who do something like this get what they deserve. While RO MAP_PRIVATE mappings are nonsensical, checking for a private mapping requires walking the vmas and was deemed too costly to avoid a userspace hang. This Patch is based on Peter Zijlstra's initial patch with modifications to only allow RO mappings for futex operations that need VERIFY_READ access.

2011-08-29ALSA: snd_usb_caiaq: track submitted output urbsDaniel Mack
commit da6094ea7d3c2295473d8f5134279307255d6ebf upstream. The snd_usb_caiaq driver currently assumes that output urbs are serviced in time and doesn't track when and whether they are given back by the USB core. That usually works fine, but due to temporary limitations of the XHCI stack, we faced that urbs were submitted more than once with this approach. As it's no good practice to fire and forget urbs anyway, this patch introduces a proper bit mask to track which requests have been submitted and given back. That alone however doesn't make the driver work in case the host controller is broken and doesn't give back urbs at all, and the output stream will stop once all pre-allocated output urbs are consumed. But it does prevent crashes of the controller stack in such cases. See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40702 for more details.

2011-08-29fs/partitions/efi.c: corrupted GUID partition tables can cause kernel oopsTimo Warns
commit 3eb8e74ec72736b9b9d728bad30484ec89c91dde upstream. The kernel automatically evaluates partition tables of storage devices. The code for evaluating GUID partitions (in fs/partitions/efi.c) contains a bug that causes a kernel oops on certain corrupted GUID partition tables. This bug has security impacts, because it allows, for example, to prepare a storage device that crashes a kernel subsystem upon connecting the device (e.g., a "USB Stick of (Partial) Death"). crc = efi_crc32((const unsigned char *) (*gpt), le32_to_cpu((*gpt)->header_size)); computes a CRC32 checksum over gpt covering (*gpt)->header_size bytes. There is no validation of (*gpt)->header_size before the efi_crc32 call. A corrupted partition table may have large values for (*gpt)->header_size. In this case, the CRC32 computation access memory beyond the memory allocated for gpt, which may cause a kernel heap overflow. Validate value of GUID partition table header size.

2011-08-29perf tools: do not look at ./config for configurationJonathan Nieder
commit aba8d056078e47350d85b06a9cabd5afcc4b72ea upstream. In addition to /etc/perfconfig and $HOME/.perfconfig, perf looks for configuration in the file ./config, imitating git which looks at $GIT_DIR/config. If ./config is not a perf configuration file, it fails, or worse, treats it as a configuration file and changes behavior in some unexpected way. "config" is not an unusual name for a file to be lying around and perf does not have a private directory dedicated for its own use, so let's just stop looking for configuration in the cwd. Callers needing context-sensitive configuration can use the PERF_CONFIG environment variable.

2011-08-29mm: fix wrong vmap address calculations with odd NR_CPUS valuesClemens Ladisch
commit f982f91516fa4cfd9d20518833cd04ad714585be upstream. Commit db64fe02258f ("mm: rewrite vmap layer") introduced code that does address calculations under the assumption that VMAP_BLOCK_SIZE is a power of two. However, this might not be true if CONFIG_NR_CPUS is not set to a power of two. Wrong vmap_block index/offset values could lead to memory corruption. However, this has never been observed in practice (or never been diagnosed correctly); what caught this was the BUG_ON in vb_alloc() that checks for inconsistent vmap_block indices. To fix this, ensure that VMAP_BLOCK_SIZE always is a power of two.

2011-08-15net: Compute protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs using MD5.David S. Miller
Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons. MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.) Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly unpredictable is a very serious limitation. So the periodic regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed. We compute and use a full 32-bit sequence number. For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.

commit c2892f02712e9516d72841d5c019ed6916329794 upstream. GRE protocol receive hook can be called right after protocol addition is done. If netns stuff is not yet initialized, we're going to oops in net_generic(). This is remotely oopsable if ip_gre is compiled as module and packet comes at unfortunate moment of module loading.

2011-08-08cifs: clean up cifs_find_smb_ses (try #2)Jeff Layton
commit 4ff67b720c02c36e54d55b88c2931879b7db1cd2 upstream. This patch replaces the earlier patch by the same name. The only difference is that MAX_PASSWORD_SIZE has been increased to attempt to match the limits that windows enforces. Do a better job of matching sessions by authtype. Matching by username for a Kerberos session is incorrect, and anonymous sessions need special handling. Also, in the case where we do match by username, we also need to match by password. That ensures that someone else doesn't "borrow" an existing session without needing to know the password. Finally, passwords can be longer than 16 bytes. Bump MAX_PASSWORD_SIZE to 512 to match the size that the userspace mount helper allows.

2011-08-08x86: HPET: Chose a paranoid safe value for the ETIME checkThomas Gleixner
(imported from commit v2.6.37-rc5-64-gf1c1807) commit 995bd3bb5 (x86: Hpet: Avoid the comparator readback penalty) chose 8 HPET cycles as a safe value for the ETIME check, as we had the confirmation that the posted write to the comparator register is delayed by two HPET clock cycles on Intel chipsets which showed readback problems. After that patch hit mainline we got reports from machines with newer AMD chipsets which seem to have an even longer delay. See http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1054283 and http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1069458 for further information. Boris tried to come up with an ACPI based selection of the minimum HPET cycles, but this failed on a couple of test machines. And of course we did not get any useful information from the hardware folks. For now our only option is to chose a paranoid high and safe value for the minimum HPET cycles used by the ETIME check. Adjust the minimum ns value for the HPET clockevent accordingly.

2011-08-08x86: Hpet: Avoid the comparator readback penaltyThomas Gleixner
(imported from commit v2.6.36-rc4-167-g995bd3b) Due to the overly intelligent design of HPETs, we need to workaround the problem that the compare value which we write is already behind the actual counter value at the point where the value hits the real compare register. This happens for two reasons: 1) We read out the counter, add the delta and write the result to the compare register. When a NMI or SMI hits between the read out and the write then the counter can be ahead of the event already 2) The write to the compare register is delayed by up to two HPET cycles in certain chipsets. We worked around this by reading back the compare register to make sure that the written value has hit the hardware. For certain ICH9+ chipsets this can require two readouts, as the first one can return the previous compare register value. That's bad performance wise for the normal case where the event is far enough in the future. As we already know that the write can be delayed by up to two cycles we can avoid the read back of the compare register completely if we make the decision whether the delta has elapsed already or not based on the following calculation: cmp = event - actual_count; If cmp is less than 8 HPET clock cycles, then we decide that the event has happened already and return -ETIME. That covers the above #1 and #2 problems which would cause a wait for HPET wraparound (~306 seconds).

2011-08-08EHCI: fix direction handling for interrupt data togglesAlan Stern
commit e04f5f7e423018bcec84c11af2058cdce87816f3 upstream. This patch (as1480) fixes a rather obscure bug in ehci-hcd. The qh_update() routine needs to know the number and direction of the endpoint corresponding to its QH argument. The number can be taken directly from the QH data structure, but the direction isn't stored there. The direction is taken instead from the first qTD linked to the QH. However, it turns out that for interrupt transfers, qh_update() gets called before the qTDs are linked to the QH. As a result, qh_update() computes a bogus direction value, which messes up the endpoint toggle handling. Under the right combination of circumstances this causes usb_reset_endpoint() not to work correctly, which causes packets to be dropped and communications to fail. Now, it's silly for the QH structure not to have direct access to all the descriptor information for the corresponding endpoint. Ultimately it may get a pointer to the usb_host_endpoint structure; for now, adding a copy of the direction flag solves the immediate problem. This allows the Spyder2 color-calibration system (a low-speed USB device that sends all its interrupt data packets with the toggle set to 0 and hance requires constant use of usb_reset_endpoint) to work when connected through a high-speed hub. Thanks to Graeme Gill for supplying the hardware that allowed me to track down this bug.

2011-08-08EHCI: only power off port if over-current is activeSergei Shtylyov
commit 81463c1d707186adbbe534016cd1249edeab0dac upstream. MAX4967 USB power supply chip we use on our boards signals over-current when power is not enabled; once it's enabled, over-current signal returns to normal. That unfortunately caused the endless stream of "over-current change on port" messages. The EHCI root hub code reacts on every over-current signal change with powering off the port -- such change event is generated the moment the port power is enabled, so once enabled the power is immediately cut off. I think we should only cut off power when we're seeing the active over-current signal, so I'm adding such check to that code. I also think that the fact that we've cut off the port power should be reflected in the result of GetPortStatus request immediately, hence I'm adding a PORTSCn register readback after write...

commit ebc63e531cc6a457595dd110b07ac530eae788c3 upstream. After commit 3262c816a3d7fb1eaabce633caa317887ed549ae "[PATCH] knfsd: split svc_serv into pools", svc_delete_xprt (then svc_delete_socket) no longer removed its xpt_ready (then sk_ready) field from whatever list it was on, noting that there was no point since the whole list was about to be destroyed anyway. That was mostly true, but forgot that a few svc_xprt_enqueue()'s might still be hanging around playing with the about-to-be-destroyed list, and could get themselves into trouble writing to freed memory if we left this xprt on the list after freeing it.

2011-08-08ext3: Fix oops in ext3_try_to_allocate_with_rsv()Jan Kara
commit ad95c5e9bc8b5885f94dce720137cac8fa8da4c9 upstream. Block allocation is called from two places: ext3_get_blocks_handle() and ext3_xattr_block_set(). These two callers are not necessarily synchronized because xattr code holds only xattr_sem and i_mutex, and ext3_get_blocks_handle() may hold only truncate_mutex when called from writepage() path. Block reservation code does not expect two concurrent allocations to happen to the same inode and thus assertions can be triggered or reservation structure corruption can occur. Fix the problem by taking truncate_mutex in xattr code to serialize allocations.
