x86 get_unmapped_area: Access mmap_legacy_base through mm_struct member

2013-09-10T00:57:37+00:00

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.

zfcp: fix lock imbalance by reworking request queue locking

2013-09-10T00:57:28+00:00

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.

block: Add bio_for_each_segment_all()

2013-09-10T00:57:27+00:00

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.

tracing: Fix fields of struct trace_iterator that are zeroed by mistake

2013-09-10T00:57:20+00:00

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.

virtio: support unlocked queue poll

2013-08-02T20:14:52+00:00

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.

perf: Fix perf mmap bugs

2013-07-27T04:34:32+00:00

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;

nbd: correct disconnect behavior

2013-07-27T04:34:29+00:00

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).

cgroup: fix RCU accesses to task->cgroups

2013-07-27T04:34:20+00:00

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.
