commit 7eb71e0351fbb1b242ae70abb7bb17107fe2f792 upstream.

It turns out it's possible to get __remove_osd() called twice on the
same OSD.  That doesn't sit well with rb_erase() - depending on the
shape of the tree we can get a NULL dereference, a soft lockup or
a random crash at some point in the future as we end up touching freed
memory.  One scenario that I was able to reproduce is as follows:

            &lt;osd3 is idle, on the osd lru list&gt;
&lt;con reset - osd3&gt;
con_fault_finish()
  osd_reset()
                              &lt;osdmap - osd3 down&gt;
                              ceph_osdc_handle_map()
                                &lt;takes map_sem&gt;
                                kick_requests()
                                  &lt;takes request_mutex&gt;
                                  reset_changed_osds()
                                    __reset_osd()
                                      __remove_osd()
                                  &lt;releases request_mutex&gt;
                                &lt;releases map_sem&gt;
    &lt;takes map_sem&gt;
    &lt;takes request_mutex&gt;
    __kick_osd_requests()
      __reset_osd()
        __remove_osd() &lt;-- !!!

A case can be made that osd refcounting is imperfect and reworking it
would be a proper resolution, but for now Sage and I decided to fix
this by adding a safe guard around __remove_osd().

commit 3ce465e04bfd8de9956d515d6e9587faac3375dc upstream.

Export the _save_fp asm function used by the lose_fpu(1) macro to GPL
modules so that KVM can make use of it when it is built as a module.

This fixes the following build error when CONFIG_KVM=m due to commit
f798217dfd03 ("KVM: MIPS: Don't leak FPU/DSP to guest"):

ERROR: "_save_fp" [arch/mips/kvm/kvm.ko] undefined!

<title>x86, mm/ASLR: Fix stack randomization on 64-bit systems</title>

<id>4f2e84da8a809db7747dd9712a120a44bebd92f3</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 4e7c22d447bb6d7e37bfe39ff658486ae78e8d77 upstream.

The issue is that the stack for processes is not properly randomized on
64 bit architectures due to an integer overflow.

The affected function is randomize_stack_top() in file
"fs/binfmt_elf.c":

  static unsigned long randomize_stack_top(unsigned long stack_top)
  {
           unsigned int random_variable = 0;

           if ((current-&gt;flags &amp; PF_RANDOMIZE) &amp;&amp;
                   !(current-&gt;personality &amp; ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE)) {
                   random_variable = get_random_int() &amp; STACK_RND_MASK;
                   random_variable &lt;&lt;= PAGE_SHIFT;
           }
           return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) + random_variable;
           return PAGE_ALIGN(stack_top) - random_variable;
  }

Note that, it declares the "random_variable" variable as "unsigned int".
Since the result of the shifting operation between STACK_RND_MASK (which
is 0x3fffff on x86_64, 22 bits) and PAGE_SHIFT (which is 12 on x86_64):

	  random_variable &lt;&lt;= PAGE_SHIFT;

then the two leftmost bits are dropped when storing the result in the
"random_variable". This variable shall be at least 34 bits long to hold
the (22+12) result.

These two dropped bits have an impact on the entropy of process stack.
Concretely, the total stack entropy is reduced by four: from 2^28 to
2^30 (One fourth of expected entropy).

This patch restores back the entropy by correcting the types involved
in the operations in the functions randomize_stack_top() and
stack_maxrandom_size().

The successful fix can be tested with:

  $ for i in `seq 1 10`; do cat /proc/self/maps | grep stack; done
  7ffeda566000-7ffeda587000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0                          [stack]
  7fff5a332000-7fff5a353000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0                          [stack]
  7ffcdb7a1000-7ffcdb7c2000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0                          [stack]
  7ffd5e2c4000-7ffd5e2e5000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0                          [stack]
  ...

Once corrected, the leading bytes should be between 7ffc and 7fff,
rather than always being 7fff.

<title>blk-throttle: check stats_cpu before reading it from sysfs</title>

commit 045c47ca306acf30c740c285a77a4b4bda6be7c5 upstream.

When reading blkio.throttle.io_serviced in a recently created blkio
cgroup, it's possible to race against the creation of a throttle policy,
which delays the allocation of stats_cpu.

Like other functions in the throttle code, just checking for a NULL
stats_cpu prevents the following oops caused by that race.

[ 1117.285199] Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x7fb4d0020

commit 045c47ca306acf30c740c285a77a4b4bda6be7c5 upstream.

When reading blkio.throttle.io_serviced in a recently created blkio
cgroup, it's possible to race against the creation of a throttle policy,
which delays the allocation of stats_cpu.

Like other functions in the throttle code, just checking for a NULL
stats_cpu prevents the following oops caused by that race.

commit d1901ef099c38afd11add4cfb3312c02ef21ec4a upstream.

When a drive is marked write-mostly it should only be the
target of reads if there is no other option.

This behaviour was broken by

commit 9dedf60313fa4dddfd5b9b226a0ef12a512bf9dc
    md/raid1: read balance chooses idlest disk for SSD

which causes a write-mostly device to be *preferred* is some cases.

Restore correct behaviour by checking and setting
best_dist_disk and best_pending_disk rather than best_disk.

We only need to test one of these as they are both changed
from -1 or &gt;=0 at the same time.

As we leave min_pending and best_dist unchanged, any non-write-mostly
device will appear better than the write-mostly device.

commit 26ac107378c4742978216be1005b7291b799c7b2 upstream.

Commit a7854487cd7128a30a7f4f5259de9f67d5efb95f:
  md: When RAID5 is dirty, force reconstruct-write instead of read-modify-write.

Causes an RCW cycle to be forced even when the array is degraded.
A degraded array cannot support RCW as that requires reading all data
blocks, and one may be missing.

Forcing an RCW when it is not possible causes a live-lock and the code
spins, repeatedly deciding to do something that cannot succeed.

So change the condition to only force RCW on non-degraded arrays.
