memory-barriers.txt
The Documentation/memory-barriers.txt file was written before
the need for ACCESS_ONCE() was fully appreciated. It therefore
contains no ACCESS_ONCE() calls, which can be a problem when
people lift examples from it. This commit therefore adds
ACCESS_ONCE() calls.

A strictly monotonically increasing sequence is normally used in
numbered lists as they provide an intuitive ordering of the
elements.
However, in situations where race conditions can appear, this
assumption breaks down and you can end up with unpredictable
results, leading to a rather confusing list :-)
This changes the numbered list 1,2,2,2 to the more intuitive
1,2,3,4.

These headers provide the same API as their pthread mutex
counterparts.
The design here is to allow to easily switch to liblockdep lock
validation just by adding a "liblockdep_" to pthread_mutex_*()
calls, which means that it's easy to integrate liblockdep into

kernel/locking/lockdep.c deals with validating locking scenarios for
various architectures supported by the kernel. There isn't
anything kernel specific going on in lockdep, and when we
compare userspace to other architectures that don't have to deal
with irqs such as s390, they become all too similar.
We wrap kernel/locking/lockdep.c and include/linux/lockdep.h with
several headers which allow us to build and use lockdep from
userspace. We don't touch the kernel code itself which means
that any work done on lockdep in the kernel will automatically
benefit userspace lockdep as well!

Lockdep is an awesome piece of code which detects locking issues
which are relevant both to userspace and kernelspace. We can
easily make lockdep work in userspace since there is really no
kernel spacific magic going on in the code.
All we need is to wrap two functions which are used by lockdep
and are very kernel specific.
Doing that will allow tools located in tools/ to easily utilize
lockdep's code for their own use.

Instead of saving the hardirq state on a per CPU variable, which require
an explicit call before the softirq handling and some complication,
just save and restore the hardirq tracing state through functions
return values and parameters.
It simplifies a bit the black magic that works around the fact that
softirqs can be called from hardirqs while hardirqs can nest on softirqs
but those two cases have very different semantics and only the latter
case assume both states.

It appears that driver runs into a problem here if fibsize is too small
because we allocate user_srbcmd with fibsize size only but later we
access it until user_srbcmd->sg.count to copy it over to srbcmd.
It is not correct to test (fibsize < sizeof(*user_srbcmd)) because this
structure already includes one sg element and this is not needed for
commands without data. So, we would recommend to add the following
(instead of test for fibsize == 0).

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"Mostly these are fixes for fallout due to merge window changes, as
well as cures for problems that have been with us for a much longer
period of time"
1) Johannes Berg noticed two major deficiencies in our genetlink
registration. Some genetlink protocols we passing in constant
counts for their ops array rather than something like
ARRAY_SIZE(ops) or similar. Also, some genetlink protocols were
using fixed IDs for their multicast groups.
We have to retain these fixed IDs to keep existing userland tools
working, but reserve them so that other multicast groups used by
other protocols can not possibly conflict.
In dealing with these two problems, we actually now use less state
management for genetlink operations and multicast groups.
2) When configuring interface hardware timestamping, fix several
drivers that simply do not validate that the hwtstamp_config value
is one the driver actually supports. From Ben Hutchings.
3) Invalid memory references in mwifiex driver, from Amitkumar Karwar.
4) In dev_forward_skb(), set the skb->protocol in the right order
relative to skb_scrub_packet(). From Alexei Starovoitov.
5) Bridge erroneously fails to use the proper wrapper functions to make
calls to netdev_ops->ndo_vlan_rx_{add,kill}_vid. Fix from Toshiaki
Makita.
6) When detaching a bridge port, make sure to flush all VLAN IDs to
prevent them from leaking, also from Toshiaki Makita.
7) Put in a compromise for TCP Small Queues so that deep queued devices
that delay TX reclaim non-trivially don't have such a performance
decrease. One particularly problematic area is 802.11 AMPDU in
wireless. From Eric Dumazet.
8) Fix crashes in tcp_fastopen_cache_get(), we can see NULL socket dsts
here. Fix from Eric Dumzaet, reported by Dave Jones.
9) Fix use after free in ipv6 SIT driver, from Willem de Bruijn.
10) When computing mergeable buffer sizes, virtio-net fails to take the
virtio-net header into account. From Michael Dalton.
11) Fix seqlock deadlock in ip4_datagram_connect() wrt. statistic
bumping, this one has been with us for a while. From Eric Dumazet.
12) Fix NULL deref in the new TIPC fragmentation handling, from Erik
Hugne.
13) 6lowpan bit used for traffic classification was wrong, from Jukka
Rissanen.
14) macvlan has the same issue as normal vlans did wrt. propagating LRO
disabling down to the real device, fix it the same way. From Michal
Kubecek.
15) CPSW driver needs to soft reset all slaves during suspend, from
Daniel Mack.
16) Fix small frame pacing in FQ packet scheduler, from Eric Dumazet.
17) The xen-netfront RX buffer refill timer isn't properly scheduled on
partial RX allocation success, from Ma JieYue.
18) When ipv6 ping protocol support was added, the AF_INET6 protocol
initialization cleanup path on failure was borked a little. Fix
from Vlad Yasevich.
19) If a socket disconnects during a read/recvmsg/recvfrom/etc that
blocks we can do the wrong thing with the msg_name we write back to
userspace. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. There is another fix in the
works from Hannes which will prevent future problems of this nature.
20) Fix route leak in VTI tunnel transmit, from Fan Du.

Johannes Berg says:
====================
genetlink: clean up multicast group APIs
The generic netlink multicast group registration doesn't have to
be dynamic, and can thus be simplified just like I did with the
ops. This removes some complexity in registration code.
Additionally, two users of generic netlink already use multicast
groups in a wrong way, add workarounds for those two to keep the
userspace API working, but at the same time make them not clash
with other users of multicast groups as might happen now.
While making it all a bit easier, also prevent such abuse by adding
checks to the APIs so each family can only use the groups it owns.

Register generic netlink multicast groups as an array with
the family and give them contiguous group IDs. Then instead
of passing the global group ID to the various functions that
send messages, pass the ID relative to the family - for most
families that's just 0 because the only have one group.
This avoids the list_head and ID in each group, adding a new
field for the mcast group ID offset to the family.
At the same time, this allows us to prevent abusing groups
again like the quota and dropmon code did, since we can now
check that a family only uses a group it owns.

The quota code is abusing the genetlink API and is using
its family ID as the multicast group ID, which is invalid
and may belong to somebody else (and likely will.)
Make the quota code use the correct API, but since this
is already used as-is by userspace, reserve a family ID
for this code and also reserve that group ID to not break
userspace assumptions.

The drop monitor code is abusing the genetlink API and is

if that group belongs to somebody else (which it invariably
will, since it's not reserved.)
Make the drop monitor code use the proper APIs to reserve a
group ID, but also reserve the group id 1 in generic netlink
code to preserve the userspace API. Since drop monitor can
be a module, don't clear the bit for it on unregistration.

As suggested by David Miller, make genl_register_family_with_ops()
a macro and pass only the array, evaluating ARRAY_SIZE() in the
macro, this is a little safer.
The openvswitch has some indirection, assing ops/n_ops directly in
that code. This might ultimately just assign the pointers in the
family initializations, saving the struct genl_family_and_ops and
code (once mcast groups are handled differently.)

snd_nxt must be updated synchronously with sk_send_head. Otherwise
tp->packets_out may be updated incorrectly, what may bring a kernel panic.
Here is a kernel panic from my host.
[ 103.043194] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000048
[ 103.044025] IP: [<ffffffff815aaaaf>] tcp_rearm_rto+0xcf/0x150
...
[ 146.301158] Call Trace:
[ 146.301158] [<ffffffff815ab7f0>] tcp_ack+0xcc0/0x12c0
Before this panic a tcp socket was restored. This socket had sent and
unsent data in the write queue. Sent data was restored in repair mode,
then the socket was switched from reapair mode and unsent data was
restored. After that the socket was switched back into repair mode.
In that moment we had a socket where write queue looks like this:
snd_una snd_nxt write_seq
|_________|________|
|
sk_send_head
After a second switching from repair mode the state of socket was
changed:
snd_una snd_nxt, write_seq
|_________ ________|
|
sk_send_head
This state is inconsistent, because snd_nxt and sk_send_head are not
synchronized.
Bellow you can find a call trace, how packets_out can be incremented
twice for one skb, if snd_nxt and sk_send_head are not synchronized.
In this case packets_out will be always positive, even when
sk_write_queue is empty.
tcp_write_wakeup
skb = tcp_send_head(sk);
tcp_fragment
if (!before(tp->snd_nxt, TCP_SKB_CB(buff)->end_seq))
tcp_adjust_pcount(sk, skb, diff);
tcp_event_new_data_sent
tp->packets_out += tcp_skb_pcount(skb);
I think update of snd_nxt isn't required, when a socket is switched from
repair mode. Because it's initialized in tcp_connect_init. Then when a
write queue is restored, snd_nxt is incremented in tcp_event_new_data_sent,
so it's always is in consistent state.
I have checked, that the bug is not reproduced with this patch and
all tests about restoring tcp connections work fine.

Pull irq cleanups from Ingo Molnar:
"This is a multi-arch cleanup series from Thomas Gleixner, which we
kept to near the end of the merge window, to not interfere with
architecture updates.
This series (motivated by the -rt kernel) unifies more aspects of IRQ
handling and generalizes PREEMPT_ACTIVE"

preempt: Make PREEMPT_ACTIVE generic

ia64: Use preempt_schedule_irq
m32r: Use preempt_schedule_irq

m68k: Simplify low level interrupt handling code
genirq: Prevent spurious detection for unconditionally polled interrupts

There was a reported deadlock on -rt which lockdep didn't report.
It turns out that in irq_exit() we tell lockdep that the hardirq
context ends and then do all kinds of locking afterwards.
To fix it, move trace_hardirq_exit() to the very end of irq_exit(), this
ensures all locking in tick_irq_exit() and rcu_irq_exit() are properly
recorded as happening from hardirq context.
This however leads to the 'fun' little problem of running softirqs
while in hardirq context. To cure this make the softirq code a little
more complex (in the CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS case).
Due to stack swizzling arch dependent trickery we cannot pass an
argument to __do_softirq() to tell it if it was done from hardirq
context or not; so use a side-band argument.
When we do __do_softirq() from hardirq context, 'atomically' flip to
softirq context and back, so that no locking goes without being in
either hard- or soft-irq context.
I didn't find any new problems in mainline using this patch, but it
did show the -rt problem.

Pull media build fixes from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"A series of patches that fix compilation on non-x86 archs.
While most of them are just build fixes, there are some fixes for real
bugs, as there are a number of drivers using dynamic stack allocation.
A few of those might be considered a security risk, if the i2c-dev
module is loaded, as someone could be sending very long I2C data that
could potentially overflow the Kernel stack. Ok, as using /dev/i2c-*
devnodes usually requires root on usual distros, and exploiting it
would require a DVB board or USB stick, the risk is not high"
