commit 41aacc1eea645c99edbe8fbcf78a97dc9b862adc upstream.
This is the updated version of df54d6fa5427 ("x86 get_unmapped_area():
use proper mmap base for bottom-up direction") that only randomizes the
mmap base address once.

commit d79ff142624e1be080ad8d09101f7004d79c36e1 upstream.
This patch adds wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout(), which is a
straight-forward descendant of wait_event_interruptible_timeout() and
wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq().
The zfcp driver used to call wait_event_interruptible_timeout()
in combination with some intricate and error-prone locking. Using
wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout() as a replacement
nicely cleans up that locking.
This rework removes a situation that resulted in a locking imbalance
in zfcp_qdio_sbal_get():
BUG: workqueue leaked lock or atomic: events/1/0xffffff00/10
last function: zfcp_fc_wka_port_offline+0x0/0xa0 [zfcp]
It was introduced by commit c2af7545aaff3495d9bf9a7608c52f0af86fb194
"[SCSI] zfcp: Do not wait for SBALs on stopped queue", which had a new
code path related to ZFCP_STATUS_ADAPTER_QDIOUP that took an early exit
without a required lock being held. The problem occured when a
special, non-SCSI I/O request was being submitted in process context,
when the adapter's queues had been torn down. In this case the bug
surfaced when the Fibre Channel port connection for a well-known address
was closed during a concurrent adapter shut-down procedure, which is a
rare constellation.
This patch also fixes these warnings from the sparse tool (make C=1):
drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_qdio.c:224:12: warning: context imbalance in
'zfcp_qdio_sbal_check' - wrong count at exit
drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_qdio.c:244:5: warning: context imbalance in
'zfcp_qdio_sbal_get' - unexpected unlock
Last but not least, we get rid of that crappy lock-unlock-lock
sequence at the beginning of the critical section.
It is okay to call zfcp_erp_adapter_reopen() with req_q_lock held.

commit d74c6d514fe314b8bdab58b487b25992291577ec upstream.
__bio_for_each_segment() iterates bvecs from the specified index
instead of bio->bv_idx. Currently, the only usage is to walk all the
bvecs after the bio has been advanced by specifying 0 index.
For immutable bvecs, we need to split these apart;
bio_for_each_segment() is going to have a different implementation.
This will also help document the intent of code that's using it -
bio_for_each_segment_all() is only legal to use for code that owns the
bio.

commit ed5467da0e369e65b247b99eb6403cb79172bcda upstream.
tracing_read_pipe zeros all fields bellow "seq". The declaration contains
a comment about that, but it doesn't help.
The first field is "snapshot", it's true when current open file is
snapshot. Looks obvious, that it should not be zeroed.
The second field is "started". It was converted from cpumask_t to
cpumask_var_t (v2.6.28-4983-g4462344), in other words it was
converted from cpumask to pointer on cpumask.
Currently the reference on "started" memory is lost after the first read
from tracing_read_pipe and a proper object will never be freed.
The "started" is never dereferenced for trace_pipe, because trace_pipe
can't have the TRACE_FILE_ANNOTATE options.

the ring
commit 8d9256906a97c24e97e016482b9be06ea2532b05 upstream.
Backends may need to protect themselves against an insane number of
produced requests stored by a frontend, in case they iterate over
requests until reaching the req_prod value. There can't be more
requests on the ring than the difference between produced requests
and produced (but possibly not yet published) responses.
This is a more strict alternative to a patch previously posted by
Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>.

commit cc229884d3f77ec3b1240e467e0236c3e0647c0c upstream.
This adds a way to check ring empty state after enable_cb outside any
locks. Will be used by virtio_net.
Note: there's room for more optimization: caller is likely to have a
memory barrier already, which means we might be able to get rid of a
barrier here. Deferring this optimization until we do some
benchmarking.

pending data

This patch adds a check if the pending data is of address family AF_INET
and directly calls udp_push_ending_frames from udp_v6_push_pending_frames
if that is the case.
This bug was found by Dave Jones with trinity.
(Also move the initialization of fl6 below the AF_INET check, even if
not strictly necessary.)

read_lock_bh(&idev->lock).

commit 26cb63ad11e04047a64309362674bcbbd6a6f246 upstream.
Vince reported a problem found by his perf specific trinity
fuzzer.
Al noticed 2 problems with perf's mmap():
- it has issues against fork() since we use vma->vm_mm for accounting.
- it has an rb refcount leak on double mmap().
We fix the issues against fork() by using VM_DONTCOPY; I don't
think there's code out there that uses this; we didn't hear
about weird accounting problems/crashes. If we do need this to
work, the previously proposed VM_PINNED could make this work.
Aside from the rb reference leak spotted by Al, Vince's example
prog was indeed doing a double mmap() through the use of
perf_event_set_output().
This exposes another problem, since we now have 2 events with
one buffer, the accounting gets screwy because we account per
event. Fix this by making the buffer responsible for its own
accounting.
[Backporting for 3.4-stable.
VM_RESERVED flag was replaced with pair 'VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP' in
314e51b9 since 3.7.0-rc1, and 314e51b9 comes from a big patchset, we didn't
backport the patchset, so I restored 'VM_DNOTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP' as before:
- vma->vm_flags |= VM_DONTCOPY | VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP;
+ vma->vm_flags |= VM_DONTCOPY | VM_RESERVED;

commit c378f70adbc1bbecd9e6db145019f14b2f688c7c upstream.
Currently, when a disconnect is requested by the user (via NBD_DISCONNECT
ioctl) the return from NBD_DO_IT is undefined (it is usually one of
several error codes). This means that nbd-client does not know if a
manual disconnect was performed or whether a network error occurred.
Because of this, nbd-client's persist mode (which tries to reconnect after
error, but not after manual disconnect) does not always work correctly.
This change fixes this by causing NBD_DO_IT to always return 0 if a user
requests a disconnect. This means that nbd-client can correctly either
persist the connection (if an error occurred) or disconnect (if the user
requested it).

commit 14611e51a57df10240817d8ada510842faf0ec51 upstream.
task->cgroups is a RCU pointer pointing to struct css_set. A task
switches to a different css_set on cgroup migration but a css_set
doesn't change once created and its pointers to cgroup_subsys_states
aren't RCU protected.
task_subsys_state[_check]() is the macro to acquire css given a task
and subsys_id pair. It RCU-dereferences task->cgroups->subsys[] not
task->cgroups, so the RCU pointer task->cgroups ends up being
dereferenced without read_barrier_depends() after it. It's broken.
Fix it by introducing task_css_set[_check]() which does
RCU-dereference on task->cgroups. task_subsys_state[_check]() is
reimplemented to directly dereference ->subsys[] of the css_set
returned from task_css_set[_check]().
This removes some of sparse RCU warnings in cgroup.
v2: Fixed unbalanced parenthsis and there's no need to use
rcu_dereference_raw() when !CONFIG_PROVE_RCU. Both spotted by Li.

commit 13d60f4b6ab5b702dc8d2ee20999f98a93728aec upstream.
The futex_keys of process shared futexes are generated from the page
offset, the mapping host and the mapping index of the futex user space
address. This should result in an unique identifier for each futex.
Though this is not true when futexes are located in different subpages
of an hugepage. The reason is, that the mapping index for all those
futexes evaluates to the index of the base page of the hugetlbfs
mapping. So a futex at offset 0 of the hugepage mapping and another
one at offset PAGE_SIZE of the same hugepage mapping have identical
futex_keys. This happens because the futex code blindly uses
page->index.
Steps to reproduce the bug:
1. Map a file from hugetlbfs. Initialize pthread_mutex1 at offset 0
and pthread_mutex2 at offset PAGE_SIZE of the hugetlbfs
mapping.
The mutexes must be initialized as PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED because
PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE mutexes are not affected by this issue as
their keys solely depend on the user space address.
2. Lock mutex1 and mutex2
3. Create thread1 and in the thread function lock mutex1, which
results in thread1 blocking on the locked mutex1.
4. Create thread2 and in the thread function lock mutex2, which
results in thread2 blocking on the locked mutex2.
5. Unlock mutex2. Despite the fact that mutex2 got unlocked, thread2
still blocks on mutex2 because the futex_key points to mutex1.
To solve this issue we need to take the normal page index of the page
which contains the futex into account, if the futex is in an hugetlbfs
mapping. In other words, we calculate the normal page mapping index of
the subpage in the hugetlbfs mapping.
Mappings which are not based on hugetlbfs are not affected and still
use page->index.
Thanks to Mel Gorman who provided a patch for adding proper evaluation
functions to the hugetlbfs code to avoid exposing hugetlbfs specific
details to the futex code.

[ Upstream commit c87a124a5d5e8cf8e21c4363c3372bcaf53ea190 ]
Roman Gushchin discovered that udp4_lib_lookup2() was not reloading
first item in the rcu protected list, in case the loop was restarted.
This produced soft lockups as in https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/16/37
rcu_dereference(X)/ACCESS_ONCE(X) seem to not work as intended if X is
ptr->field :
In some cases, gcc caches the value or ptr->field in a register.
Use a barrier() to disallow such caching, as documented in
Documentation/atomic_ops.txt line 114
Thanks a lot to Roman for providing analysis and numerous patches.

commit 30dad30922ccc733cfdbfe232090cf674dc374dc upstream.
When we have a page fault for the address which is backed by a hugepage
under migration, the kernel can't wait correctly and do busy looping on
hugepage fault until the migration finishes. As a result, users who try
to kick hugepage migration (via soft offlining, for example) occasionally
experience long delay or soft lockup.
This is because pte_offset_map_lock() can't get a correct migration entry
or a correct page table lock for hugepage. This patch introduces
migration_entry_wait_huge() to solve this.

There are instances in the kernel where we would like to disable CPU
hotplug (from sysfs) during some important operation. Today the freezer

Restructure the code and make it generic enough to be useful for other
usecases too.

commit 9ecd1a75d977e2e8c48139c7d3efed183f898d94 upstream.
The maximum packet including header that can be handled by netfront / netback
wire format is 65535. Reduce gso_max_size accordingly.
Drop skb and print warning when skb->len > 65535. This can 1) save the effort
to send malformed packet to netback, 2) help spotting misconfiguration of
netfront in the future.

commit 3a3bfb61e64476ff1e4ac3122cb6dec9c79b795c upstream.
__ratelimit() can be considered an inverted bool test because
it returns true when not ratelimited. Several tests in the
kernel tree use this __ratelimit() function incorrectly.
No net_ratelimit uses are incorrect currently though.
Most uses of net_ratelimit are to log something via printk or
pr_<level>.
In order to minimize the uses of net_ratelimit, and to start
standardizing the code style used for __ratelimit() and net_ratelimit(),
add a net_ratelimited_function() macro and net_<level>_ratelimited()
logging macros similar to pr_<level>_ratelimited that use the global
net_ratelimit instead of a static per call site "struct ratelimit_state".

commit 2810e5b9a7731ca5fce22bfbe12c96e16ac44b6f upstream.
This patch tries to coalesce tx requests when constructing grant copy
structures. It enables netback to deal with situation when frontend's
MAX_SKB_FRAGS is larger than backend's MAX_SKB_FRAGS.
With the help of coalescing, this patch tries to address two regressions
avoid reopening the security hole in XSA-39.
Regression 1. The reduction of the number of supported ring entries (slots)
per packet (from 18 to 17). This regression has been around for some time but
remains unnoticed until XSA-39 security fix. This is fixed by coalescing
slots.
Regression 2. The XSA-39 security fix turning "too many frags" errors from
just dropping the packet to a fatal error and disabling the VIF. This is fixed
by coalescing slots (handling 18 slots when backend's MAX_SKB_FRAGS is 17)
which rules out false positive (using 18 slots is legit) and dropping packets
using 19 to `max_skb_slots` slots.
To avoid reopening security hole in XSA-39, frontend sending packet using more
than max_skb_slots is considered malicious.
The behavior of netback for packet is thus:
1-18 slots: valid
19-max_skb_slots slots: drop and respond with an error
max_skb_slots+ slots: fatal error
max_skb_slots is configurable by admin, default value is 20.
Also change variable name from "frags" to "slots" in netbk_count_requests.
Please note that RX path still has dependency on MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This will be
fixed with separate patch.

[ Upstream commit f77d602124d865c38705df7fa25c03de9c284ad2 ]
We have seen multiple NULL dereferences in __inet6_lookup_established()
After analysis, I found that inet6_sk() could be NULL while the
check for sk_family == AF_INET6 was true.
Bug was added in linux-2.6.29 when RCU lookups were introduced in UDP
and TCP stacks.
Once an IPv6 socket, using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU is inserted in a hash
table, we no longer can clear pinet6 field.
This patch extends logic used in commit fcbdf09d9652c891
("net: fix nulls list corruptions in sk_prot_alloc")
TCP/UDP/UDPLite IPv6 protocols provide their own .clear_sk() method
to make sure we do not clear pinet6 field.
At socket clone phase, we do not really care, as cloning the parent (non
NULL) pinet6 is not adding a fatal race.

[ Upstream commit 233c7df0821c4190e2d3f4be0f2ca0ab40a5ed8c, note
that I had to add list_first_or_null_rcu to rculist.h in order
to accomodate this fix. ]
Currently, if macvlan in passthru mode is created and data are rxed and
you remove this device, following panic happens:
NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000198
IP: [<ffffffffa0196058>] macvlan_handle_frame+0x153/0x1f7 [macvlan]
I'm using following script to trigger this:
<script>
while [ 1 ]
do
ip link add link e1 name macvtap0 type macvtap mode passthru
ip link set e1 up
ip link set macvtap0 up
IFINDEX=`ip link |grep macvtap0 | cut -f 1 -d ':'`
cat /dev/tap$IFINDEX >/dev/null &
ip link del dev macvtap0
done
</script>
I run this script while "ping -f" is running on another machine to send
packets to e1 rx.
Reason of the panic is that list_first_entry() is blindly called in
macvlan_handle_frame() even if the list was empty. vlan is set to
incorrect pointer which leads to the crash.
I'm fixing this by protecting port->vlans list by rcu and by preventing
from getting incorrect pointer in case the list is empty.

commit 4c663cfc523a88d97a8309b04a089c27dc57fd7e upstream.
Many callers of the wait_event_timeout() and
wait_event_interruptible_timeout() expect that the return value will be
positive if the specified condition becomes true before the timeout
elapses. However, at the moment this isn't guaranteed. If the wake-up
handler is delayed enough, the time remaining until timeout will be
calculated as 0 - and passed back as a return value - even if the
condition became true before the timeout has passed.
Fix this by returning at least 1 if the condition becomes true. This
semantic is in line with what wait_for_condition_timeout() does; see
commit bb10ed09 ("sched: fix wait_for_completion_timeout() spurious
failure under heavy load").
Daniel said "We have 3 instances of this bug in drm/i915. One case even
where we switch between the interruptible and not interruptible
wait_event_timeout variants, foolishly presuming they have the same
semantics. I very much like this."

[ Upstream commit 124dff01afbdbff251f0385beca84ba1b9adda68 ]
Commit 130549fe ("netfilter: reset nf_trace in nf_reset") added code
to reset nf_trace in nf_reset(). This is wrong and unnecessary.
nf_reset() is used in the following cases:
- when passing packets up the the socket layer, at which point we want to
release all netfilter references that might keep modules pinned while
the packet is queued. nf_trace doesn't matter anymore at this point.
- when encapsulating or decapsulating IPsec packets. We want to continue
tracing these packets after IPsec processing.
- when passing packets through virtual network devices. Only devices on
that encapsulate in IPv4/v6 matter since otherwise nf_trace is not
used anymore. Its not entirely clear whether those packets should
be traced after that, however we've always done that.
- when passing packets through virtual network devices that make the
packet cross network namespace boundaries. This is the only cases
where we clearly want to reset nf_trace and is also what the
original patch intended to fix.
Add a new function nf_reset_trace() and use it in dev_forward_skb() to
fix this properly.

[ Upstream commit 4543fbefe6e06a9e40d9f2b28d688393a299f079 ]
A few drivers use dev_uc_sync/unsync to synchronize the
address lists from master down to slave/lower devices. In
some cases (bond/team) a single address list is synched down
to multiple devices. At the time of unsync, we have a leak
in these lower devices, because "synced" is treated as a
boolean and the address will not be unsynced for anything after
the first device/call.
Treat "synced" as a count (same as refcount) and allow all
unsync calls to work.

commit b4cbb197c7e7a68dbad0d491242e3ca67420c13e upstream.
Various drivers end up replicating the code to mmap() their memory
buffers into user space, and our core memory remapping function may be
very flexible but it is unnecessarily complicated for the common cases
to use.
Our internal VM uses pfn's ("page frame numbers") which simplifies
things for the VM, and allows us to pass physical addresses around in a
denser and more efficient format than passing a "phys_addr_t" around,
and having to shift it up and down by the page size. But it just means
that drivers end up doing that shifting instead at the interface level.
It also means that drivers end up mucking around with internal VM things
like the vma details (vm_pgoff, vm_start/end) way more than they really
need to.
So this just exports a function to map a certain physical memory range
into user space (using a phys_addr_t based interface that is much more
natural for a driver) and hides all the complexity from the driver.
Some drivers will still end up tweaking the vm_page_prot details for
things like prefetching or cacheability etc, but that's actually
relevant to the driver, rather than caring about what the page offset of
the mapping is into the particular IO memory region.

commit d76a3a77113db020d9bb1e894822869410450bd9 upstream.
In the case where an inode has a very stale transaction id (tid) in
i_datasync_tid or i_sync_tid, it's possible that after a very large
(2**31) number of transactions, that the tid number space might wrap,
causing tid_geq()'s calculations to fail.
Commit deeeaf13 "jbd2: fix fsync() tid wraparound bug", later modified
by commit e7b04ac0 "jbd2: don't wake kjournald unnecessarily",
attempted to fix this problem, but it only avoided kjournald spinning
forever by fixing the logic in jbd2_log_start_commit().
Unfortunately, in the codepaths in fs/ext4/fsync.c and fs/ext4/inode.c
that might call jbd2_log_start_commit() with a stale tid, those
functions will subsequently call jbd2_log_wait_commit() with the same
stale tid, and then wait for a very long time. To fix this, we
replace the calls to jbd2_log_start_commit() and
jbd2_log_wait_commit() with a call to a new function,
jbd2_complete_transaction(), which will correctly handle stale tid's.
As a bonus, jbd2_complete_transaction() will avoid locking
j_state_lock for writing unless a commit needs to be started. This
should have a small (but probably not measurable) improvement for
ext4's scalability.

commit 8f964525a121f2ff2df948dac908dcc65be21b5b upstream.
This patch adds support for kvm_gfn_to_hva_cache_init functions for
reads and writes that will cross a page. If the range falls within
the same memslot, then this will be a fast operation. If the range
is split between two memslots, then the slower kvm_read_guest and
kvm_write_guest are used.
Tested: Test against kvm_clock unit tests.

commit 2f800fbd777b792de54187088df19a7df0251254 upstream.
De-account the accumulative dirty counters on page redirty.
Page redirties (very common in ext4) will introduce mismatch between
counters (a) and (b)
a) NR_DIRTIED, BDI_DIRTIED, tsk->nr_dirtied
b) NR_WRITTEN, BDI_WRITTEN
This will introduce systematic errors in balanced_rate and result in
dirty page position errors (ie. the dirty pages are no longer balanced
around the global/bdi setpoints).

commit 83f1b4ba917db5dc5a061a44b3403ddb6e783494 upstream.
Commit 257b5358b32f ("scm: Capture the full credentials of the scm
sender") changed the credentials passing code to pass in the effective
uid/gid instead of the real uid/gid.
Obviously this doesn't matter most of the time (since normally they are
the same), but it results in differences for suid binaries when the wrong
uid/gid ends up being used.
This just undoes that (presumably unintentional) part of the commit.

commit 4b20db3de8dab005b07c74161cb041db8c5ff3a7 upstream.
This function is intended to simplify locking around refcounting for
objects that can be looked up from a lookup structure, and which are
removed from that lookup structure in the object destructor.
Operations on such objects require at least a read lock around
lookup + kref_get, and a write lock around kref_put + remove from lookup
structure. Furthermore, RCU implementations become extremely tricky.
With a lookup followed by a kref_get_unless_zero *with return value check*
locking in the kref_put path can be deferred to the actual removal from
the lookup structure and RCU lookups become trivial.
v2: Formatting fixes.
v3: Invert the return value.
