efi: Make 'efi_enabled' a function to query EFI facilities

2013-02-14T18:48:53+00:00

commit 83e68189745ad931c2afd45d8ee3303929233e7f upstream.

Originally 'efi_enabled' indicated whether a kernel was booted from
EFI firmware. Over time its semantics have changed, and it now
indicates whether or not we are booted on an EFI machine with
bit-native firmware, e.g. 64-bit kernel with 64-bit firmware.

The immediate motivation for this patch is the bug report at,

    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557

which details how running a platform driver on an EFI machine that is
designed to run under BIOS can cause the machine to become
bricked. Also, the following report,

    https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121

details how running said driver can also cause Machine Check
Exceptions. Drivers need a new means of detecting whether they're
running on an EFI machine, as sadly the expression,

    if (!efi_enabled)

hasn't been a sufficient condition for quite some time.

Users actually want to query 'efi_enabled' for different reasons -
what they really want access to is the list of available EFI
facilities.

For instance, the x86 reboot code needs to know whether it can invoke
the ResetSystem() function provided by the EFI runtime services, while
the ACPI OSL code wants to know whether the EFI config tables were
mapped successfully. There are also checks in some of the platform
driver code to simply see if they're running on an EFI machine (which
would make it a bad idea to do BIOS-y things).

This patch is a prereq for the samsung-laptop fix patch.

usb: Using correct way to clear usb3.0 device's remote wakeup feature.

2013-02-11T16:47:20+00:00

commit 54a3ac0c9e5b7213daa358ce74d154352657353a upstream.

Usb3.0 device defines function remote wakeup which is only for interface
recipient rather than device recipient. This is different with usb2.0 device's
remote wakeup feature which is defined for device recipient. According usb3.0
spec 9.4.5, the function remote wakeup can be modified by the SetFeature()
requests using the FUNCTION_SUSPEND feature selector. This patch is to use
correct way to disable usb3.0 device's function remote wakeup after suspend
error and resuming.

This should be backported to kernels as old as 3.4, that contain the
commit 623bef9e03a60adc623b09673297ca7a1cdfb367 "USB/xhci: Enable remote
wakeup for USB3 devices."

ptrace: introduce signal_wake_up_state() and ptrace_signal_wake_up()

2013-01-28T04:47:43+00:00

commit 910ffdb18a6408e14febbb6e4b6840fd2c928c82 upstream.

Cleanup and preparation for the next change.

signal_wake_up(resume => true) is overused. None of ptrace/jctl callers
actually want to wakeup a TASK_WAKEKILL task, but they can't specify the
necessary mask.

Turn signal_wake_up() into signal_wake_up_state(state), reintroduce
signal_wake_up() as a trivial helper, and add ptrace_signal_wake_up()
which adds __TASK_TRACED.

This way ptrace_signal_wake_up() can work "inside" ptrace_request()
even if the tracee doesn't have the TASK_WAKEKILL bit set.

target: Add link_magic for fabric allow_link destination target_items

commit 0ff8754981261a80f4b77db2536dfea92c2d4539 upstream.

This patch adds [dev,lun]_link_magic value assignment + checks within generic
target_fabric_port_link() and target_fabric_mappedlun_link() code to ensure
destination config_item *target_item sent from configfs_symlink() ->
config_item_operations->allow_link() is the underlying se_device->dev_group
and se_lun->lun_group that we expect to symlink.

libceph: remove 'osdtimeout' option

2013-01-17T16:51:20+00:00

This would reset a connection with any OSD that had an outstanding
request that was taking more than N seconds.  The idea was that if the
OSD was buggy, the client could compensate by resending the request.

In reality, this only served to hide server bugs, and we haven't
actually seen such a bug in quite a while.  Moreover, the userspace
client code never did this.

More importantly, often the request is taking a long time because the
OSD is trying to recover, or overloaded, and killing the connection
and retrying would only make the situation worse by giving the OSD
more work to do.

mm: limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT

2013-01-11T17:07:18+00:00

commit 53a59fc67f97374758e63a9c785891ec62324c81 upstream.

Since commit e303297e6c3a ("mm: extended batches for generic
mmu_gather") we are batching pages to be freed until either
tlb_next_batch cannot allocate a new batch or we are done.

This works just fine most of the time but we can get in troubles with
non-preemptible kernel (CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE or CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY)
on large machines where too aggressive batching might lead to soft
lockups during process exit path (exit_mmap) because there are no
scheduling points down the free_pages_and_swap_cache path and so the
freeing can take long enough to trigger the soft lockup.

The lockup is harmless except when the system is setup to panic on
softlockup which is not that unusual.

The simplest way to work around this issue is to limit the maximum
number of batches in a single mmu_gather.  10k of collected pages should
be safe to prevent from soft lockups (we would have 2ms for one) even if
they are all freed without an explicit scheduling point.

This patch doesn't add any new explicit scheduling points because it
relies on zap_pmd_range during page tables zapping which calls
cond_resched per PMD.

The following lockup has been reported for 3.0 kernel with a huge
process (in order of hundreds gigs but I do know any more details).

tcp: implement RFC 5961 4.2

[ Upstream commit 0c24604b68fc7810d429d6c3657b6f148270e528 ]

Implement the RFC 5691 mitigation against Blind
Reset attack using SYN bit.

Section 4.2 of RFC 5961 advises to send a Challenge ACK and drop
incoming packet, instead of resetting the session.

Add a new SNMP counter to count number of challenge acks sent
in response to SYN packets.
(netstat -s | grep TCPSYNChallenge)

Remove obsolete TCPAbortOnSyn, since we no longer abort a TCP session
because of a SYN flag.

tcp: implement RFC 5961 3.2

2013-01-11T17:07:14+00:00

[ Upstream commit 282f23c6ee343126156dd41218b22ece96d747e3 ]

Implement the RFC 5691 mitigation against Blind
Reset attack using RST bit.

Idea is to validate incoming RST sequence,
to match RCV.NXT value, instead of previouly accepted
window : (RCV.NXT <= SEG.SEQ < RCV.NXT+RCV.WND)

If sequence is in window but not an exact match, send
a "challenge ACK", so that the other part can resend an
RST with the appropriate sequence.

Add a new sysctl, tcp_challenge_ack_limit, to limit
number of challenge ACK sent per second.

Add a new SNMP counter to count number of challenge acks sent.
(netstat -s | grep TCPChallengeACK)

inet: Fix kmemleak in tcp_v4/6_syn_recv_sock and dccp_v4/6_request_recv_sock

2013-01-11T17:07:14+00:00

[ Upstream commit e337e24d6624e74a558aa69071e112a65f7b5758 ]

If in either of the above functions inet_csk_route_child_sock() or
__inet_inherit_port() fails, the newsk will not be freed:

This happens, because sk_clone_lock initializes sk_refcnt to 2, and thus
a single sock_put() is not enough to free the memory. Additionally, things
like xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,... may have been initialized.
We have to free them properly.

This is fixed by forcing a call to tcp_done(), ending up in
inet_csk_destroy_sock, doing the final sock_put(). tcp_done() is necessary,
because it ends up doing all the cleanup on xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,
xfrm,...

Before calling tcp_done, we have to set the socket to SOCK_DEAD, to
force it entering inet_csk_destroy_sock. To avoid the warning in
inet_csk_destroy_sock, inet_num has to be set to 0.
As inet_csk_destroy_sock does a dec on orphan_count, we first have to
increase it.

Calling tcp_done() allows us to remove the calls to
tcp_clear_xmit_timer() and tcp_cleanup_congestion_control().

A similar approach is taken for dccp by calling dccp_done().

This is in the kernel since 093d282321 (tproxy: fix hash locking issue
when using port redirection in __inet_inherit_port()), thus since
version >= 2.6.37.
