In data=journal mode, if we unmount the file system before a
transaction has a chance to complete, when the journal inode is being
evicted, we can end up calling into jbd2_log_wait_commit() for the
last transaction, after the journalling machinery has been shut down.
Arguably we should adjust ext4_should_journal_data() to return FALSE
for the journal inode, but the only place it matters is
ext4_evict_inode(), and so to save a bit of CPU time, and to make the
patch much more obviously correct by inspection(tm), we'll fix it by
explicitly not trying to waiting for a journal commit when we are
evicting the journal inode, since it's guaranteed to never succeed in
this case.
This can be easily replicated via:
mount -t ext4 -o data=journal /dev/vdb /vdb ; umount /vdb
Creation of individual mixer controls may fail, but that shouldn't cause
the entire mixer creation to fail. Even worse, if the mixer creation
fails, that will error out the entire device probing.
All the functions called by parse_audio_unit() should return -EINVAL if
they find descriptors that are unsupported or believed to be malformed,
so we can safely handle this error code as a non-fatal condition in
snd_usb_mixer_controls().
That fixes a long standing bug which is commonly worked around by
adding quirks which make the driver ignore entire interfaces. Some of
them might now be unnecessary.

According to XHCI specification (5.5.2.1) the IP is bit 0 and IE is bit 1
of IMAN register. Previously their definitions were reversed.
Even though there are no ill effects being observed from the swapped
definitions (because IMAN_IP is RW1C and in legacy PCI case we come in
with it already set to 1 so it was clearing itself even though we were
setting IMAN_IE instead of IMAN_IP), we should still correct the values.

Because function tracing is very invasive, and can even trace

with preempt_disable_notrace(). This requires a synchronize_sched()

Function probes (traceon, traceoff, etc) must be freed after
a synchronize_sched() after its entry has been removed from the

Although the swap is wrapped with a spin_lock, the assignment
of the temp buffer used to swap is not within that lock.
It needs to be moved into that lock, otherwise two swaps
happening on two different CPUs, can end up using the wrong
temp buffer to assign in the swap.
Luckily, all current callers of the swap function appear to have
their own locks. But in case something is added that allows two
different callers to call the swap, then there's a chance that
this race can trigger and corrupt the buffers.
New code is coming soon that will allow for this race to trigger.

jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() didn't get a reference to journal_head it

journal head can be freed under hands of jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata().

'ex' will be split into two parts:

'map->m_len' is returned from this function, and the value is 24. But

old descriptor. This can result in a duplicated or partly duplicated

not happen when the pushed descriptor is the only one written.
TX push also provides little latency benefit when a packet requires

(d) is under our control, but fake link changes may disturb userland.

efx_mcdi_poll() uses get_seconds() to read the current time and to
implement a polling timeout. The use of this function was chosen
partly because it could easily be replaced in a co-sim environment
with a macro that read the simulated time.
Unfortunately the real get_seconds() returns the system time (real
time) which is subject to adjustment by e.g. ntpd. If the system time
is adjusted forward during a polled MCDI operation, the effective
timeout can be shorter than the intended 10 seconds, resulting in a
spurious failure. It is also possible for a backward adjustment to
delay detection of a areal failure.
Use jiffies instead, and change MCDI_RPC_TIMEOUT to be denominated in
jiffies. Also correct rounding of the timeout: check time > finish
(or rather time_after(time, finish)) and not time >= finish.

The TX DMA engine issues upstream read requests when there is room in
the TX FIFO for the completion. However, the fetches for the rest of
the packet might be delayed by any back pressure. Since a flush must
wait for an EOP, the entire flush may be delayed by back pressure.
Mitigate this by disabling flow control before the flushes are
started. Since PF and VF flushes run in parallel introduce
fc_disable, a reference count of the number of flushes outstanding.
The same principle could be applied to Falcon, but that
would bring with it its own testing.
We sometimes hit a "failed to flush" timeout on some TX queues, but the
flushes have completed and the flush completion events seem to go missing.
In this case, we can check the TX_DESC_PTR_TBL register and drain the
queues if the flushes had finished.

This patch introduces a constant limit of the fragment queue hash
table bucket list lengths. Currently the limit 128 is choosen somewhat
arbitrary and just ensures that we can fill up the fragment cache with
empty packets up to the default ip_frag_high_thresh limits. It should
just protect from list iteration eating considerable amounts of cpu.
If we reach the maximum length in one hash bucket a warning is printed.
This is implemented on the caller side of inet_frag_find to distinguish
between the different users of inet_fragment.c.
I dropped the out of memory warning in the ipv4 fragment lookup path,
because we already get a warning by the slab allocator.

When SCTP is done processing a duplicate cookie chunk, it tries
to delete a newly created association. For that, it has to set
the right association for the side-effect processing to work.
However, when it uses the SCTP_CMD_NEW_ASOC command, that performs
more work then really needed (like hashing the associationa and
assigning it an id) and there is no point to do that only to
delete the association as a next step. In fact, it also creates
an impossible condition where an association may be found by
the getsockopt() call, and that association is empty. This
causes a crash in some sctp getsockopts.
The solution is rather simple. We simply use SCTP_CMD_SET_ASOC
command that doesn't have all the overhead and does exactly
what we need.

for the passed in mm if its mm_cpumask is not empty.
For the init_mm however its mm_cpumask has never any bits set. Which in
turn means that our flush_tlb_kernel_range() implementation doesn't
work at all.
This can be easily verified with a vmalloc/vfree loop which allocates
a page, writes to it and then frees the page again. A crash will follow
almost instantly.

The dcb netlink interface leaks stack memory in various places:
* perm_addr[] buffer is only filled at max with 12 of the 32 bytes but
copied completely,
* no in-kernel driver fills all fields of an IEEE 802.1Qaz subcommand,
so we're leaking up to 58 bytes for ieee_ets structs, up to 136 bytes
for ieee_pfc structs, etc.,
* the same is true for CEE -- no in-kernel driver fills the whole
struct,
Prevent all of the above stack info leaks by properly initializing the

The sendmsg() syscall handler for PPPoL2TP doesn't decrease the socket
reference counter after successful transmissions. Any successful
sendmsg() call from userspace will then increase the reference counter
forever, thus preventing the kernel's session and tunnel data from
being freed later on.
The problem only happens when writing directly on L2TP sockets.
PPP sockets attached to L2TP are unaffected as the PPP subsystem
uses pppol2tp_xmit() which symmetrically increase/decrease reference
counters.
This patch adds the missing call to sock_put() before returning from
pppol2tp_sendmsg().

Commit 1d9d8639c063 ("perf,x86: fix kernel crash with PEBS/BTS after
suspend/resume") fixed a crash when doing PEBS performance profiling
after resuming, but in using init_debug_store_on_cpu() to restore the
DS_AREA mtrr it also resulted in a new WARN_ON() triggering.
init_debug_store_on_cpu() uses "wrmsr_on_cpu()", which in turn uses CPU
cross-calls to do the MSR update. Which is not really valid at the
early resume stage, and the warning is quite reasonable. Now, it all
happens to _work_, for the simple reason that smp_call_function_single()
ends up just doing the call directly on the CPU when the CPU number
matches, but we really should just do the wrmsr() directly instead.
This duplicates the wrmsr() logic, but hopefully we can just remove the
wrmsr_on_cpu() version eventually.
This patch fixes a kernel crash when using precise sampling (PEBS)
after a suspend/resume. Turns out the CPU notifier code is not invoked
on CPU0 (BP). Therefore, the DS_AREA (used by PEBS) is not restored properly
by the kernel and keeps it power-on/resume value of 0 causing any PEBS
measurement to crash when running on CPU0.
The workaround is to add a hook in the actual resume code to restore
the DS Area MSR value. It is invoked for all CPUS. So for all but CPU0,
the DS_AREA will be restored twice but this is harmless.
Now that login from util-linux is forced to drop all references to a
TTY which it wants to hangup (to reach reference count 1) we are
seeing issues with telnet. When login closes its last reference to the
slave PTY, it also resets packet mode on the *master* side. And we
have a race here.
What telnet does is fork+exec of `login'. Then there are two
scenarios:
* `login' closes the slave TTY and resets thus master's packet mode,
but even now telnet properly sets the mode, or
* `telnetd' sets packet mode on the master, `login' closes the slave
TTY and resets master's packet mode.
The former case is OK. However the latter happens in much more cases,
by the order of magnitude to be precise. So when one tries to login to
such a messed telnet setup, they see the following:
inux login:
ogin incorrect
Note the missing first letters -- telnet thinks it is still in the
packet mode, so when it receives "linux login" from `login', it
considers "l" as the type of the packet and strips it.
SuS does not mention how the implementation should behave. Both BSDs I
checked (Free and Net) do not reset the flag upon the last close.
By this I am resurrecting an old bug, see References. We are hitting
it regularly now, i.e. with updated util-linux, ergo login.
Here, I am changing a behavior introduced back in 2.1 times. It would
better have a long time testing before goes upstream.
The utf8s_to_utf16s conversion routine needs to be improved. Unlike
its utf16s_to_utf8s sibling, it doesn't accept arguments specifying
the maximum length of the output buffer or the endianness of its
16-bit output.
This patch (as1501) adds the two missing arguments, and adjusts the
only two places in the kernel where the function is called. A
follow-on patch will add a third caller that does utilize the new
capabilities.
The two conversion routines are still annoyingly inconsistent in the
way they handle invalid byte combinations. But that's a subject for a
different patch.

so unmount might complete before __free_device fires & does its blkdev_put.

After a guest is live migrated, the xen-netfront driver emits a gratuitous
ARP message, so that networking hardware on the target host's subnet can
take notice, and public routing to the guest is re-established. However,
if the packet appears on the backend interface before the backend is added
to the target host's bridge, the packet is lost, and the migrated guest's
peers become unable to talk to the guest.
A sufficient two-parts condition to prevent the above is:
(1) ensure that the backend only moves to Connected xenbus state after its
hotplug scripts completed, ie. the netback interface got added to the
bridge; and
(2) ensure the frontend only queues the gARP when it sees the backend move
to Connected.
These two together provide complete ordering. Sub-condition (1) is already
satisfied by commit f942dc2552b8 in Linus' tree, based on commit 6b0b80ca7165 from [1].
In general, the full condition is sufficient, not necessary, because,
according to [2], live migration has been working for a long time without
satisfying sub-condition (2). However, after 6b0b80ca7165 was backported
to the RHEL-5 host to ensure (1), (2) still proved necessary in the RHEL-6
guest. This patch intends to provide (2) for upstream.

A USB 3.0 device can transition to the Inactive state if a U1 or U2 exit
transition fails. The current code in hub_events simply issues a warm
reset, but does not call any pre-reset or post-reset driver methods (or
unbind/rebind drivers without them). Therefore the drivers won't know
their device has just been reset.
hub_events should instead call usb_reset_device. This means
hub_port_reset now needs to figure out whether it should issue a warm
reset or a hot reset.

When a hot reset fails on a USB 3.0 port, the current port reset code
recursively calls hub_port_reset inside hub_port_wait_reset. This isn't
ideal, since we should avoid recursive calls in the kernel, and it also
doesn't allow us to issue multiple warm resets on reset failures.
Rip out the recursive call. Instead, add code to hub_port_reset to
issue a warm reset if the hot reset fails, and try multiple warm resets
before giving up on the port.
In hub_port_wait_reset, remove the recursive call and re-indent. The
code is basically the same, except:
1. It bails out early if the port has transitioned to Inactive or
Compliance Mode after the reset completed.
2. It doesn't consider a connect status change to be a failed reset. If
multiple warm resets needed to be issued, the connect status may have
changed, so we need to ignore that and look at the port link state
instead. hub_port_reset will now do that.
3. It unconditionally sets udev->speed on all types of successful
resets. The old recursive code would set the port speed when the second
hub_port_reset returned.
The old code did not handle connected devices needing a warm reset well.
There were only two situations that the old code handled correctly: an
empty port needing a warm reset, and a hot reset that migrated to a warm
reset.
When an empty port needed a warm reset, hub_port_reset was called with
the warm variable set. The code in hub_port_finish_reset would skip
telling the USB core and the xHC host that the device was reset, because
otherwise that would result in a NULL pointer dereference.
When a USB 3.0 device reset migrated to a warm reset, the recursive call
made the call stack look like this:
hub_port_reset(warm = false)
hub_wait_port_reset(warm = false)
hub_port_reset(warm = true)
hub_wait_port_reset(warm = true)
hub_port_finish_reset(warm = true)
(return up the call stack to the first wait)
hub_port_finish_reset(warm = false)
The old code didn't want to notify the USB core or the xHC host of device reset
twice, so it only did it in the second call to hub_port_finish_reset,
when warm was set to false. This was necessary because
before patch two ("USB: Ignore xHCI Reset Device status."), the USB core
would pay attention to the xHC Reset Device command error status, and
the second call would always fail.
Now that we no longer have the recursive call, and warm can change from
false to true in hub_port_reset, we need to have hub_port_finish_reset
unconditionally notify the USB core and the xHC of the device reset.
In hub_port_finish_reset, unconditionally clear the connect status
change (CSC) bit for USB 3.0 hubs when the port reset is done. If we
had to issue multiple warm resets for a device, that bit may have been
set if the device went into SS.Inactive and then was successfully warm
reset.

The next patch will refactor the hub port code to rip out the recursive

transitioned to the Inactive or Compliance Mode on a device connect.

USB 3.0 hubs. It also makes the warm port reset code more complex.

Looking at mm/process_vm_access.c:process_vm_rw() and comparing it to
compat_process_vm_rw() shows that the compatibility code requires an
explicit "access_ok()" check before calling
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(). The same difference seems to appear when
we compare fs/read_write.c:do_readv_writev() to
fs/compat.c:compat_do_readv_writev().
This subtle difference between the compat and non-compat requirements
should probably be debated, as it seems to be error-prone. In fact,
there are two others sites that use this function in the Linux kernel,
and they both seem to get it wrong:
Now shifting our attention to fs/aio.c, we see that aio_setup_iocb()
also ends up calling compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() through
aio_setup_vectored_rw(). Unfortunately, the access_ok() check appears to
be missing. Same situation for
security/keys/compat.c:compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov().
I propose that we add the access_ok() check directly into
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector(), so callers don't have to worry about it,
and it therefore makes the compat call code similar to its non-compat
counterpart. Place the access_ok() check in the same location where
copy_from_user() can trigger a -EFAULT error in the non-compat code, so
the ABI behaviors are alike on both compat and non-compat.
While we are here, fix compat_do_readv_writev() so it checks for
compat_rw_copy_check_uvector() negative return values.
And also, fix a memory leak in compat_keyctl_instantiate_key_iov() error
handling.

Three errors resulting in kernel memory disclosure:

of the API. Switch to strncpy() to fix this.
2/ crypto_report_one() does not initialize all field of struct
crypto_user_alg. Fix this to fix the heap info leak.
3/ For the module name we should copy only as many bytes as
module_name() returns -- not as much as the destination buffer could
hold. But the current code does not and therefore copies random data
from behind the end of the module name, as the module name is always
shorter than CRYPTO_MAX_ALG_NAME.
Also switch to use strncpy() to copy the algorithm's name and

When the new signal handlers are set up, the location of sa_restorer is
not cleared, leaking a parent process's address space location to
children. This allows for a potential bypass of the parent's ASLR by
examining the sa_restorer value returned when calling sigaction().
Based on what should be considered "secret" about addresses, it only
matters across the exec not the fork (since the VMAs haven't changed
until the exec). But since exec sets SIG_DFL and keeps sa_restorer,
this is where it should be fixed.
Given the few uses of sa_restorer, a "set" function was not written
since this would be the only use. Instead, we use
__ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER, as already done in other places.
The buffer for responses must not overflow.
If this would happen, set a flag, drop the data and return
an error after user space has read all remaining data.

This patch adds a check if w1_search is serving netlink command, skipping

This could have been either ARCH_S5P64X0 or CPU_S5P6450. Looking at
commit 2555e663b367b8d555e76023f4de3f6338c28d6c ("ARM: S5P64X0: Add UART
serial support for S5P6450") - which added this typo - makes clear this
should be CPU_S5P6450.

Looking back at that thread there were two issues in the original patch.
1) The I/O ports for the UARTs are within BAR2 not BAR0. This can been seen in the original post.
2) A serial quirk isn't needed as these cards have no memory in BAR0 which makes pci_plx9050_init just return.
This patch fixes the 4 port support to use BAR2, removes the bogus quirk and adds support for the 8 port card.

There is a race in install_user_keyrings() that can cause a NULL pointer
dereference when called concurrently for the same user if the uid and
uid-session keyrings are not yet created. It might be possible for an
unprivileged user to trigger this by calling keyctl() from userspace in
parallel immediately after logging in.
Assume that we have two threads both executing lookup_user_key(), both
looking for KEY_SPEC_USER_SESSION_KEYRING.
THREAD A THREAD B
=============================== ===============================
==>call install_user_keyrings();
if (!cred->user->session_keyring)
==>call install_user_keyrings()
...
user->uid_keyring = uid_keyring;
if (user->uid_keyring)
return 0;
<==
key = cred->user->session_keyring [== NULL]
user->session_keyring = session_keyring;
atomic_inc(&key->usage); [oops]
At the point thread A dereferences cred->user->session_keyring, thread B
hasn't updated user->session_keyring yet, but thread A assumes it is
populated because install_user_keyrings() returned ok.
The race window is really small but can be exploited if, for example,
thread B is interrupted or preempted after initializing uid_keyring, but
before doing setting session_keyring.
This couldn't be reproduced on a stock kernel. However, after placing
systemtap probe on 'user->session_keyring = session_keyring;' that
introduced some delay, the kernel could be crashed reliably.
Fix this by checking both pointers before deciding whether to return.
Alternatively, the test could be done away with entirely as it is checked
inside the mutex - but since the mutex is global, that may not be the best
way.

ext3_msg() takes the printk prefix as the second parameter and the
format string as the third parameter. Two callers of ext3_msg omit the
prefix and pass the format string as the second parameter and the first
parameter to the format string as the third parameter. In both cases
this string comes from an arbitrary source. Which means the string may
contain format string characters, which will
lead to undefined and potentially harmful behavior.
The issue was introduced in commit 4cf46b67eb("ext3: Unify log messages
in ext3") and is fixed by this patch.
