2011-04-21next_pidmap: fix overflow conditionLinus Torvalds
commit c78193e9c7bcbf25b8237ad0dec82f805c4ea69b upstream. next_pidmap() just quietly accepted whatever 'last' pid that was passed in, which is not all that safe when one of the users is /proc. Admittedly the proc code should do some sanity checking on the range (and that will be the next commit), but that doesn't mean that the helper functions should just do that pidmap pointer arithmetic without checking the range of its arguments. So clamp 'last' to PID_MAX_LIMIT. The fact that we then do "last+1" doesn't really matter, the for-loop does check against the end of the pidmap array properly (it's only the actual pointer arithmetic overflow case we need to worry about, and going one bit beyond isn't going to overflow).

2011-04-21brk: COMPAT_BRK: fix detection of randomized brkJiri Kosina
commit 4471a675dfc7ca676c165079e91c712b09dc9ce4 upstream. 5520e89 ("brk: fix min_brk lower bound computation for COMPAT_BRK") tried to get the whole logic of brk randomization for legacy (libc5-based) applications finally right. It turns out that the way to detect whether brk has actually been randomized in the end or not introduced by that patch still doesn't work for those binaries, as reported by Geert: : /sbin/init from my old m68k ramdisk exists prematurely. : : Before the patch: : : | brk(0x80005c8e) = 0x80006000 : : After the patch: : : | brk(0x80005c8e) = 0x80005c8e : : Old libc5 considers brk() to have failed if the return value is not : identical to the requested value. I don't like it, but currently see no better option than a bit flag in task_struct to catch the CONFIG_COMPAT_BRK && randomize_va_space == 2 case.

2011-04-21kstrto*: converting strings to integers done (hopefully) rightAlexey Dobriyan
commit 33ee3b2e2eb9b4b6c64dcf9ed66e2ac3124e748c upstream. 1. simple_strto*() do not contain overflow checks and crufty, libc way to indicate failure. 2. strict_strto*() also do not have overflow checks but the name and comments pretend they do. 3. Both families have only "long long" and "long" variants, but users want strtou8() 4. Both "simple" and "strict" prefixes are wrong: Simple doesn't exactly say what's so simple, strict should not exist because conversion should be strict by default. The solution is to use "k" prefix and add convertors for more types. Enter kstrtoull() kstrtoll() kstrtoul() kstrtol() kstrtouint() kstrtoint() kstrtou64() kstrtos64() kstrtou32() kstrtos32() kstrtou16() kstrtos16() kstrtou8() kstrtos8() Include runtime testsuite (somewhat incomplete) as well. strict_strto*() become deprecated, stubbed to kstrto*() and eventually will be removed altogether. Use kstrto*() in code today! Note: on some archs _kstrtoul() and _kstrtol() are left in tree, even if they'll be unused at runtime. This is temporarily solution, because I don't want to hardcode list of archs where these functions aren't needed. Current solution with sizeof() and __alignof__ at least always works.

commit 8b8bae901ce23addbdcdb54fa1696fb2d049feb5 upstream. We need to distinguish the situation in which ASPM support is disabled from the command line or through .config from the situation in which it is disabled, because the hardware or BIOS can't handle it. In the former case we should not report ASPM support to the BIOS through ACPI _OSC, but in the latter case we should do that. Introduce pcie_aspm_support_enabled() that can be used by acpi_pci_root_add() to determine whether or not it should report ASPM support to the BIOS through _OSC.

2011-04-14ses: Avoid kernel panic when lun 0 is not mappedKrishnasamy, Somasundaram
commit d1e12de804f9d8ad114786ca7c2ce593cba79891 upstream. During device discovery, scsi mid layer sends INQUIRY command to LUN 0. If the LUN 0 is not mapped to host, it creates a temporary scsi_device with LUN id 0 and sends REPORT_LUNS command to it. After the REPORT_LUNS succeeds, it walks through the LUN table and adds each LUN found to sysfs. At the end of REPORT_LUNS lun table scan, it will delete the temporary scsi_device of LUN 0. When scsi devices are added to sysfs, it calls add_dev function of all the registered class interfaces. If ses driver has been registered, ses_intf_add() of ses module will be called. This function calls scsi_device_enclosure() to check the inquiry data for EncServ bit. Since inquiry was not allocated for temporary LUN 0 scsi_device, it will cause NULL pointer exception. To fix the problem, sdev->inquiry is checked for NULL before reading it.

commit 3674f19dabd15f9541079a588149a370d888f4e6 upstream. It's a big no-no to use pgprot_noncached() when mmap'ing such buffers into userspace since they are mapped cachable in kernel space. This can cause all sort of interesting things ranging from to garbled sound to lockups on various architectures. I've observed that usb-audio is broken on powerpc 4xx for example because of that. Also remove the now unused snd_pcm_lib_mmap_noncached(). It's an arch business to know when to use uncached mappings, there's already hacks for MIPS inside snd_pcm_default_mmap() and other archs are supposed to use dma_mmap_coherent().

2011-03-27mm: compaction: prevent kswapd compacting memory to reduce CPU usageAndrea Arcangeli
commit d527caf22e48480b102c7c6ee5b9ba12170148f7 upstream. This patch reverts 5a03b051 ("thp: use compaction in kswapd for GFP_ATOMIC order > 0") due to reports stating that kswapd CPU usage was higher and IRQs were being disabled more frequently. This was reported at http://www.spinics.net/linux/fedora/alsa-user/msg09885.html. Without this patch applied, CPU usage by kswapd hovers around the 20% mark according to the tester (Arthur Marsh: http://www.spinics.net/linux/fedora/alsa-user/msg09899.html). With this patch applied, it's around 2%. The problem is not related to THP which specifies __GFP_NO_KSWAPD but is triggered by high-order allocations hitting the low watermark for their order and waking kswapd on kernels with CONFIG_COMPACTION set. The most common trigger for this is network cards configured for jumbo frames but it's also possible it'll be triggered by fork-heavy workloads (order-1) and some wireless cards which depend on order-1 allocations. The symptoms for the user will be high CPU usage by kswapd in low-memory situations which could be confused with another writeback problem. While a patch like 5a03b051 may be reintroduced in the future, this patch plays it safe for now and reverts it.

2011-03-23USB: move usbcore away from hcd->stateAlan Stern
commit 9b37596a2e860404503a3f2a6513db60c296bfdc upstream. The hcd->state variable is a disaster. It's not clearly owned by either usbcore or the host controller drivers, and they both change it from time to time, potentially stepping on each other's toes. It's not protected by any locks. And there's no mechanism to prevent it from going through an invalid transition. This patch (as1451) takes a first step toward fixing these problems. As it turns out, usbcore uses hcd->state for essentially only two things: checking whether the controller's root hub is running and checking whether the controller has died. Therefore the patch adds two new atomic bitflags to the hcd structure, to store these pieces of information. The new flags are used only by usbcore, and a private spinlock prevents invalid combinations (a dead controller's root hub cannot be running). The patch does not change the places where usbcore sets hcd->state, since HCDs may depend on them. Furthermore, there is one place in usb_hcd_irq() where usbcore still must use hcd->state: An HCD's interrupt handler can implicitly indicate that the controller died by setting hcd->state to HC_STATE_HALT. Nevertheless, the new code is a big improvement over the current code. The patch makes one other change. The hcd_bus_suspend() and hcd_bus_resume() routines now check first whether the host controller has died; if it has then they return immediately without calling the HCD's bus_suspend or bus_resume methods. This fixes the major problem reported in Bugzilla #29902: The system fails to suspend after a host controller dies during system resume.

2011-03-23USB: serial drivers need to use larger bulk-in buffersAlan Stern
commit 969e3033ae7733a0af8f7742ca74cd16c0857e71 upstream. When a driver doesn't know how much data a device is going to send, the buffer size should be at least as big as the endpoint's maxpacket value. The serial drivers don't follow this rule; many of them request only 256-byte bulk-in buffers. As a result, they suffer overflow errors if a high-speed device wants to send a lot of data, because high-speed bulk endpoints are required to have a maxpacket size of 512. This patch (as1450) fixes the problem by using the driver's bulk_in_size value as a minimum, always allocating buffers no smaller than the endpoint's maxpacket size.

2011-03-23ftrace: Fix memory leak with function graph and cpu hotplugSteven Rostedt
commit 868baf07b1a259f5f3803c1dc2777b6c358f83cf upstream. When the fuction graph tracer starts, it needs to make a special stack for each task to save the real return values of the tasks. All running tasks have this stack created, as well as any new tasks. On CPU hot plug, the new idle task will allocate a stack as well when init_idle() is called. The problem is that cpu hotplug does not create a new idle_task. Instead it uses the idle task that existed when the cpu went down. ftrace_graph_init_task() will add a new ret_stack to the task that is given to it. Because a clone will make the task have a stack of its parent it does not check if the task's ret_stack is already NULL or not. When the CPU hotplug code starts a CPU up again, it will allocate a new stack even though one already existed for it. The solution is to treat the idle_task specially. In fact, the function_graph code already does, just not at init_idle(). Instead of using the ftrace_graph_init_task() for the idle task, which that function expects the task to be a clone, have a separate ftrace_graph_init_idle_task(). Also, we will create a per_cpu ret_stack that is used by the idle task. When we call ftrace_graph_init_idle_task() it will check if the idle task's ret_stack is NULL, if it is, then it will assign it the per_cpu ret_stack.

2011-03-10SUNRPC: Close a race in __rpc_wait_for_completion_task()Trond Myklebust
Although they run as rpciod background tasks, under normal operation (i.e. no SIGKILL), functions like nfs_sillyrename(), nfs4_proc_unlck() and nfs4_do_close() want to be fully synchronous. This means that when we exit, we want all references to the rpc_task to be gone, and we want any dentry references etc. held by that task to be released. For this reason these functions call __rpc_wait_for_completion_task(), followed by rpc_put_task() in the expectation that the latter will be releasing the last reference to the rpc_task, and thus ensuring that the callback_ops->rpc_release() has been called synchronously. This patch fixes a race which exists due to the fact that rpciod calls rpc_complete_task() (in order to wake up the callers of __rpc_wait_for_completion_task()) and then subsequently calls rpc_put_task() without ensuring that these two steps are done atomically. In order to avoid adding new spin locks, the patch uses the existing waitqueue spin lock to order the rpc_task reference count releases between the waiting process and rpciod. The common case where nobody is waiting for completion is optimised for by checking if the RPC_TASK_ASYNC flag is cleared and/or if the rpc_task reference count is 1: in those cases we drop trying to grab the spin lock, and immediately free up the rpc_task. Those few processes that need to put the rpc_task from inside an asynchronous context and that do not care about ordering are given a new helper: rpc_put_task_async().

2011-03-10net: don't allow CAP_NET_ADMIN to load non-netdev kernel modulesVasiliy Kulikov
Since a8f80e8ff94ecba629542d9b4b5f5a8ee3eb565c any process with CAP_NET_ADMIN may load any module from /lib/modules/. This doesn't mean that CAP_NET_ADMIN is a superset of CAP_SYS_MODULE as modules are limited to /lib/modules/**. However, CAP_NET_ADMIN capability shouldn't allow anybody load any module not related to networking. This patch restricts an ability of autoloading modules to netdev modules with explicit aliases. This fixes CVE-2011-1019. Arnd Bergmann suggested to leave untouched the old pre-v2.6.32 behavior of loading netdev modules by name (without any prefix) for processes with CAP_SYS_MODULE to maintain the compatibility with network scripts that use autoloading netdev modules by aliases like "eth0", "wlan0".

2011-03-08unfuck proc_sysctl ->d_compare()Al Viro
a) struct inode is not going to be freed under ->d_compare(); however, the thing PROC_I(inode)->sysctl points to just might. Fortunately, it's enough to make freeing that sucker delayed, provided that we don't step on its ->unregistering, clear the pointer to it in PROC_I(inode) before dropping the reference and check if it's NULL in ->d_compare(). b) I'm not sure that we *can* walk into NULL inode here (we recheck dentry->seq between verifying that it's still hashed / fetching dentry->d_inode and passing it to ->d_compare() and there's no negative hashed dentries in /proc/sys/*), but if we can walk into that, we really should not have ->d_compare() return 0 on it! Said that, I really suspect that this check can be simply killed. Nick? Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2011-03-04libceph: fix msgr backoffSage Weil
With commit f363e45f we replaced a bunch of hacky workqueue mutual exclusion logic with the WQ_NON_REENTRANT flag. One pieces of fallout is that the exponential backoff breaks in certain cases: * con_work attempts to connect. * we get an immediate failure, and the socket state change handler queues immediate work. * con_work calls con_fault, we decide to back off, but can't queue delayed work. In this case, we add a BACKOFF bit to make con_work reschedule delayed work next time it runs (which should be immediately). Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>

2011-03-03blktrace: Remove blk_fill_rwbs_rq.Tao Ma
If we enable trace events to trace block actions, We use blk_fill_rwbs_rq to analyze the corresponding actions in request's cmd_flags, but we only choose the minor 2 bits from it, so most of other flags(e.g, REQ_SYNC) are missing. For example, with a sync write we get: write_test-2409 [001] 160.013869: block_rq_insert: 3,64 W 0 () 258135 + = 8 [write_test] Since now we have integrated the flags of both bio and request, it is safe to pass rq->cmd_flags directly to blk_fill_rwbs and blk_fill_rwbs_rq isn't needed any more. With this patch, after a sync write we get: write_test-2417 [000] 226.603878: block_rq_insert: 3,64 WS 0 () 258135 += 8 [write_test] Signed-off-by: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@taobao.com> Acked-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

commit 339412841d7 (RxRPC: Allow key payloads to be passed in XDR form) broke klog for me. I notice the v1 key struct had a kif_version field added: -struct rxkad_key { - u16 security_index; /* RxRPC header security index */ - u16 ticket_len; /* length of ticket[] */ - u32 expiry; /* time at which expires */ - u32 kvno; /* key version number */ - u8 session_key[8]; /* DES session key */ - u8 ticket[0]; /* the encrypted ticket */ -}; +struct rxrpc_key_data_v1 { + u32 kif_version; /* 1 */ + u16 security_index; + u16 ticket_length; + u32 expiry; /* time_t */ + u32 kvno; + u8 session_key[8]; + u8 ticket[0]; +}; However the code in rxrpc_instantiate strips it away: data += sizeof(kver); datalen -= sizeof(kver); Removing kif_version fixes my problem.

Ensure that we don't power down the CODEC when this is happening by checking to see if VMID is up and skipping suspend and resume when it is. If the CODEC has suspended then it'll turn VMID off before the core suspend() gets called.

2011-03-01blk-throttle: Do not use kblockd workqueue for throtl workVivek Goyal
o Dominik Klein reported a system hang issue while doing some blkio throttling testing. https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/24/173 o Some tracing revealed that CFQ was not dispatching any more jobs as queue unplug was not happening. And queue unplug was not happening because unplug work was not being called as there was one throttling work on same cpu which as not finished yet. And throttling work had not finished as it was tyring to dispatch a bio to CFQ but all the request descriptors were consume to it was put to sleep. o So basically it is a cyclic dependecny between CFQ unplug work and throtl dispatch work. Tejun suggested that use separate workqueue for such cases. o This patch uses a separate workqueue for throttle related work and does not rely on kblockd workqueue anymore.

However, CONFIG_THERMAL doesn't really need to depend on CONFIG_NET, because the only part of it requiring CONFIG_NET is the netlink interface in thermal_sys.c.

2011-02-28[SCSI] target: Fix t_transport_aborted handling in LUN_RESET + active I/O ↵Nicholas Bellinger
shutdown This patch addresses two outstanding bugs related to T_TASK(cmd)->t_transport_aborted handling during TMR LUN_RESET and active I/O shutdown. This first involves adding two explict t_transport_aborted=1 assignments in core_tmr_lun_reset() in order to signal the task has been aborted, and updating transport_generic_wait_for_tasks() to skip sleeping when t_transport_aborted=1 has been set. This fixes an issue where transport_generic_wait_for_tasks() would end up sleeping indefinately when called from fabric module context while TMR LUN_RESET was happening with long outstanding backend struct se_task not yet being completed. The second adds a missing call to transport_remove_task_from_execute_queue() when task->task_execute_queue=1 is set in order to fix an OOPs when task->t_execute_list has not been dropped. It also fixes the same case in transport_processing_shutdown() to prevent the issue from happening during active I/O struct se_device shutdown. Signed-off-by: Nicholas A.
