2012-08-09tcp: perform DMA to userspace only if there is a task waiting for itJiri Kosina
[ Upstream commit 59ea33a68a9083ac98515e4861c00e71efdc49a1 ] Back in 2006, commit 1a2449a87b ("[I/OAT]: TCP recv offload to I/OAT") added support for receive offloading to IOAT dma engine if available. The code in tcp_rcv_established() tries to perform early DMA copy if applicable. It however does so without checking whether the userspace task is actually expecting the data in the buffer. This is not a problem under normal circumstances, but there is a corner case where this doesn't work -- and that's when MSG_TRUNC flag to recvmsg() is used. If the IOAT dma engine is not used, the code properly checks whether there is a valid ucopy.task and the socket is owned by userspace, but misses the check in the dmaengine case. This problem can be observed in real trivially -- for example 'tbench' is a good reproducer, as it makes a heavy use of MSG_TRUNC. On systems utilizing IOAT, you will soon find tbench waiting indefinitely in sk_wait_data(), as they have been already early-copied in tcp_rcv_established() using dma engine. This patch introduces the same check we are performing in the simple iovec copy case to the IOAT case as well. It fixes the indefinite recvmsg(MSG_TRUNC) hangs.

2012-08-09net: fix rtnetlink IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI handlingJiri Benc
[ Upstream commit b1beb681cba5358f62e6187340660ade226a5fcc ] When device flags are set using rtnetlink, IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI flags are handled specially. Function dev_change_flags sets IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI bits in dev->gflags according to the passed value but do_setlink passes a result of rtnl_dev_combine_flags which takes those bits from dev->flags. This can be easily trigerred by doing: tcpdump -i eth0 & ip l s up eth0 ip sets IFF_UP flag in ifi_flags and ifi_change, which is combined with IFF_PROMISC by rtnl_dev_combine_flags, causing __dev_change_flags to set IFF_PROMISC in gflags.

2012-08-09cipso: don't follow a NULL pointer when setsockopt() is calledPaul Moore
[ Upstream commit 89d7ae34cdda4195809a5a987f697a517a2a3177 ] As reported by Alan Cox, and verified by Lin Ming, when a user attempts to add a CIPSO option to a socket using the CIPSO_V4_TAG_LOCAL tag the kernel dies a terrible death when it attempts to follow a NULL pointer (the skb argument to cipso_v4_validate() is NULL when called via the setsockopt() syscall). This patch fixes this by first checking to ensure that the skb is non-NULL before using it to find the incoming network interface. In the unlikely case where the skb is NULL and the user attempts to add a CIPSO option with the _TAG_LOCAL tag we return an error as this is not something we want to allow. A simple reproducer, kindly supplied by Lin Ming, although you must have the CIPSO DOI #3 configure on the system first or you will be caught early in cipso_v4_validate(): #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <linux/ip.h> #include <linux/in.h> #include <string.h> struct local_tag { char type; char length; char info[4]; }; struct cipso { char type; char length; char doi[4]; struct local_tag local; }; int main(int argc, char **argv) { int sockfd; struct cipso cipso = { .type = IPOPT_CIPSO, .length = sizeof(struct cipso), .local = { .type = 128, .length = sizeof(struct local_tag), }, }; memset(cipso.doi, 0, 4); cipso.doi[3] = 3; sockfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, 0); #define SOL_IP 0 setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_IP, IP_OPTIONS, &cipso, sizeof(struct cipso)); return 0; } CC: Lin Ming <mlin@ss.pku.edu.cn> Reported-by: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <pmoore@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

As a result, we get a gpf when traversing the hashtable while a freed node corrupts part of the list. Nominally I would think that an mibalanced refcount was responsible for this, but I can't seem to find any obvious imbalance. What I did note however was that the two places where we create an association using sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE (__sctp_connect and sctp_sendmsg), have failure paths which free a newly created association after calling sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE. sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE brings us into the sctp_sf_do_prm_asoc path, which issues a SCTP_CMD_NEW_ASOC side effect, which in turn adds a new association to the aforementioned hash table. the sctp command interpreter that process side effects has not way to unwind previously processed commands, so freeing the association from the __sctp_connect or sctp_sendmsg error path would lead to a freed association remaining on this hash table. I've fixed this but modifying sctp_[un]hash_established to use hlist_del_init, which allows us to proerly use hlist_unhashed to check if the node is on a hashlist safely during a delete. That in turn alows us to safely call sctp_unhash_established in the __sctp_connect and sctp_sendmsg error paths before freeing them, regardles of what the associations state is on the hash list. I noted, while I was doing this, that the __sctp_unhash_endpoint was using hlist_unhsashed in a simmilar fashion, but never nullified any removed nodes pointers to make that function work properly, so I fixed that up in a simmilar fashion. I attempted to test this using a virtual guest running the SCTP_RR test from netperf in a loop while running the trinity fuzzer, both in a loop. I wasn't able to recreate the problem prior to this fix, nor was I able to trigger the failure after (neither of which I suppose is suprising). Given the trace above however, I think its likely that this is what we hit. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Reported-by: davej@redhat.com CC: davej@redhat.com CC: "David S.

commit 97795d2a5b8d3c8dc4365d4bd3404191840453ba upstream. If we hit a condition where we have allocated metadata blocks that were not appropriately reserved, we risk underflow of ei->i_reserved_meta_blocks.

2012-08-09ext4: fix hole punch failure when depth is greater than 0Ashish Sangwan
commit 968dee77220768a5f52cf8b21d0bdb73486febef upstream. Whether to continue removing extents or not is decided by the return value of function ext4_ext_more_to_rm() which checks 2 conditions: a) if there are no more indexes to process. b) if the number of entries are decreased in the header of "depth -1". In case of hole punch, if the last block to be removed is not part of the last extent index than this index will not be deleted, hence the number of valid entries in the extent header of "depth - 1" will remain as it is and ext4_ext_more_to_rm will return 0 although the required blocks are not yet removed. This patch fixes the above mentioned problem as instead of removing the extents from the end of file, it starts removing the blocks from the particular extent from which removing blocks is actually required and continue backward until done.

commit 952fc18ef9ec707ebdc16c0786ec360295e5ff15 upstream. Commit f975d6bcc7a introduced bug which caused ext4_statfs() to miscalculate the number of file system overhead blocks. This causes the f_blocks field in the statfs structure to be larger than it should be. This would in turn cause the "df" output to show the number of data blocks in the file system and the number of data blocks used to be larger than they should be.

2012-08-09nouveau: Fix alignment requirements on src and dst addressesMaarten Lankhorst
commit ce806a30470bcd846d148bf39d46de3ad7748228 upstream. Linear copy works by adding the offset to the buffer address, which may end up not being 16-byte aligned. Some tests I've written for prime_pcopy show that the engine allows this correctly, so the restriction on lowest 4 bits of address can be lifted safely. The comments added were by envyas, I think because I used a newer version.

2012-08-09NFS: Fix a number of bugs in the idmapperDavid Howells
commit a427b9ec4eda8cd6e641ea24541d30b641fc3140 upstream. Fix a number of bugs in the NFS idmapper code: (1) Only registered key types can be passed to the core keys code, so register the legacy idmapper key type. This is a requirement because the unregister function cleans up keys belonging to that key type so that there aren't dangling pointers to the module left behind - including the key->type pointer. (2) Rename the legacy key type. You can't have two key types with the same name, and (1) would otherwise require that. (3) complete_request_key() must be called in the error path of nfs_idmap_legacy_upcall(). (4) There is one idmap struct for each nfs_client struct. This means that idmap->idmap_key_cons is shared without the use of a lock. This is a problem because key_instantiate_and_link() - as called indirectly by idmap_pipe_downcall() - releases anyone waiting for the key to be instantiated. What happens is that idmap_pipe_downcall() running in the rpc.idmapd thread, releases the NFS filesystem in whatever thread that is running in to continue. This may then make another idmapper call, overwriting idmap_key_cons before idmap_pipe_downcall() gets the chance to call complete_request_key(). I *think* that reading idmap_key_cons only once, before key_instantiate_and_link() is called, and then caching the result in a variable is sufficient. Bug (4) is the cause of: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: [< (null)>] (null) PGD 0 Oops: 0010 [#1] SMP CPU 1 Modules linked in: ppdev parport_pc lp parport ip6table_filter ip6_tables ebtable_nat ebtables ipt_MASQUERADE iptable_nat nf_nat nf_conntrack_ipv4 nf_defrag_ipv4 xt_state nf_conntrack nfs fscache xt_CHECKSUM auth_rpcgss iptable_mangle nfs_acl bridge stp llc lockd be2iscsi iscsi_boot_sysfs bnx2i cnic uio cxgb4i cxgb4 cxgb3i libcxgbi cxgb3 mdio ib_iser rdma_cm ib_cm iw_cm ib_sa ib_mad ib_core ib_addr iscsi_tcp libiscsi_tcp libiscsi scsi_transport_iscsi snd_hda_codec_realtek snd_usb_audio snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec snd_seq snd_pcm snd_hwdep snd_usbmidi_lib snd_rawmidi snd_timer uvcvideo videobuf2_core videodev media videobuf2_vmalloc snd_seq_device videobuf2_memops e1000e vhost_net iTCO_wdt joydev coretemp snd soundcore macvtap macvlan i2c_i801 snd_page_alloc tun iTCO_vendor_support microcode kvm_intel kvm sunrpc hid_logitech_dj usb_storage i915 drm_kms_helper drm i2c_algo_bit i2c_core video [last unloaded: scsi_wait_scan] Pid: 1229, comm: rpc.idmapd Not tainted 3.4.2-1.fc16.x86_64 #1 Gateway DX4710-UB801A/G33M05G1 RIP: 0010:[<0000000000000000>] [< (null)>] (null) RSP: 0018:ffff8801a3645d40 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: ffff880077707e30 RBX: ffff880077707f50 RCX: ffff8801a18ccd80 RDX: 0000000000000006 RSI: ffff8801a3645e75 RDI: ffff880077707f50 RBP: ffff8801a3645d88 R08: ffff8801a430f9c0 R09: ffff8801a3645db0 R10: 000000000000000a R11: 0000000000000246 R12: ffff8801a18ccd80 R13: ffff8801a3645e75 R14: ffff8801a430f9c0 R15: 0000000000000006 FS: 00007fb6fb51a700(0000) GS:ffff8801afc80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000000000 CR3: 00000001a49b0000 CR4: 00000000000027e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process rpc.idmapd (pid: 1229, threadinfo ffff8801a3644000, task ffff8801a3bf9710) Stack: ffffffff81260878 ffff8801a3645db0 ffff8801a3645db0 ffff880077707a90 ffff880077707f50 ffff8801a18ccd80 0000000000000006 ffff8801a3645e75 ffff8801a430f9c0 ffff8801a3645dd8 ffffffff81260983 ffff8801a3645de8 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81260878>] ? __key_instantiate_and_link+0x58/0x100 [<ffffffff81260983>] key_instantiate_and_link+0x63/0xa0 [<ffffffffa057062b>] idmap_pipe_downcall+0x1cb/0x1e0 [nfs] [<ffffffffa0107f57>] rpc_pipe_write+0x67/0x90 [sunrpc] [<ffffffff8117f833>] vfs_write+0xb3/0x180 [<ffffffff8117fb5a>] sys_write+0x4a/0x90 [<ffffffff81600329>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Code: Bad RIP value.

Fix this by setting PF_FSTRANS on the workqueue task prior to doing the socket allocation, and having nfs_release_page check for that flag when deciding whether to do a commit call. Also, set PF_FSTRANS unconditionally in rpc_async_schedule since that function can also do allocations sometimes.

commit c999ff68029ebd0f56ccae75444f640f6d5a27d2 upstream. It is very common for the end of the file to be unaligned on stripe size. But since we know it's beyond file's end then the XOR should be preformed with all zeros. Old code used to just read zeros out of the OSD devices, which is a great waist. But what scares me more about this situation is that, we now have pages attached to the file's mapping that are beyond i_size. I don't like the kind of bugs this calls for. Fix both birds, by returning a global zero_page, if offset is beyond i_size.

2012-08-09posix_types.h: Cleanup stale __NFDBITS and related definitionsJosh Boyer
commit 8ded2bbc1845e19c771eb55209aab166ef011243 upstream. Recently, glibc made a change to suppress sign-conversion warnings in FD_SET (glibc commit ceb9e56b3d1). This uncovered an issue with the kernel's definition of __NFDBITS if applications #include <linux/types.h> after including <sys/select.h>. A build failure would be seen when passing the -Werror=sign-compare and -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 flags to gcc. It was suggested that the kernel should either match the glibc definition of __NFDBITS or remove that entirely. The current in-kernel uses of __NFDBITS can be replaced with BITS_PER_LONG, and there are no uses of the related __FDELT and __FDMASK defines. Given that, we'll continue the cleanup that was started with commit 8b3d1cda4f5f ("posix_types: Remove fd_set macros") and drop the remaining unused macros. Additionally, linux/time.h has similar macros defined that expand to nothing so we'll remove those at the same time.

Josef made the free callback also call iput, which we can't do with the spinlock. This drops the spinlock for the free operation and grabs it again before moving through the rest of the list. We'll circle back around to this and find a cleaner way that doesn't bounce the lock around so much.

2012-08-09ACPI/AC: prevent OOPS on some boxes due to missing check ↵Lan Tianyu
power_supply_register() return value check commit f197ac13f6eeb351b31250b9ab7d0da17434ea36 upstream. In the ac.c, power_supply_register()'s return value is not checked. As a result, the driver's add() ops may return success even though the device failed to initialize. For example, some BIOS may describe two ACADs in the same DSDT. The second ACAD device will fail to register, but ACPI driver's add() ops returns sucessfully. The ACPI device will receive ACPI notification and cause OOPS. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=772730 Signed-off-by: Lan Tianyu <tianyu.lan@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2012-08-09ACPI, APEI: Fixup common access width firmware bugJean Delvare
commit f712c71f7b2b43b894d1e92e1b77385fcad8815f upstream. Many firmwares have a common register definition bug where 8-bit access width is specified for a 32-bit register. Ideally this should be fixed in the BIOS, but earlier versions of the kernel did not complain, so fix that up silently.

2012-08-09workqueue: perform cpu down operations from low priority cpu_notifier()Tejun Heo
commit 6575820221f7a4dd6eadecf7bf83cdd154335eda upstream. Currently, all workqueue cpu hotplug operations run off CPU_PRI_WORKQUEUE which is higher than normal notifiers. This is to ensure that workqueue is up and running while bringing up a CPU before other notifiers try to use workqueue on the CPU. Per-cpu workqueues are supposed to remain working and bound to the CPU for normal CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifiers. This holds mostly true even with workqueue offlining running with higher priority because workqueue CPU_DOWN_PREPARE only creates a bound trustee thread which runs the per-cpu workqueue without concurrency management without explicitly detaching the existing workers. However, if the trustee needs to create new workers, it creates unbound workers which may wander off to other CPUs while CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifiers are in progress. Furthermore, if the CPU down is cancelled, the per-CPU workqueue may end up with workers which aren't bound to the CPU. While reliably reproducible with a convoluted artificial test-case involving scheduling and flushing CPU burning work items from CPU down notifiers, this isn't very likely to happen in the wild, and, even when it happens, the effects are likely to be hidden by the following successful CPU down. Fix it by using different priorities for up and down notifiers - high priority for up operations and low priority for down operations. Workqueue cpu hotplug operations will soon go through further cleanup. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: "Rafael J.

2012-08-09staging: zsmalloc: Finish conversion to a separate moduleBen Hutchings
commit 069f101fa463351f528773d73b74e9b606b3f66a upstream. ZSMALLOC is tristate, but the code has no MODULE_LICENSE and since it depends on GPL-only symbols it cannot be loaded as a module. This in turn breaks zram which now depends on it. I assume it's meant to be Dual BSD/GPL like the other z-stuff. There is also no module_exit, which will make it impossible to unload. Add the appropriate module_init and module_exit declarations suggested by comments.

2012-08-09udf: Improve table length check to avoid possible overflowJan Kara
commit 57b9655d01ef057a523e810d29c37ac09b80eead upstream. When a partition table length is corrupted to be close to 1 << 32, the check for its length may overflow on 32-bit systems and we will think the length is valid. Later on the kernel can crash trying to read beyond end of buffer. Fix the check to avoid possible overflow.
