2010-02-09mm: purge fragmented percpu vmap blocksNick Piggin
commit 02b709df817c0db174f249cc59e5f7fd01b64d92 upstream. Improve handling of fragmented per-CPU vmaps. We previously don't free up per-CPU maps until all its addresses have been used and freed. So fragmented blocks could fill up vmalloc space even if they actually had no active vmap regions within them. Add some logic to allow all CPUs to have these blocks purged in the case of failure to allocate a new vm area, and also put some logic to trim such blocks of a current CPU if we hit them in the allocation path (so as to avoid a large build up of them). Christoph reported some vmap allocation failures when using the per CPU vmap APIs in XFS, which cannot be reproduced after this patch and the previous bug fix.

2010-02-09mm: percpu-vmap fix RCU list walkingNick Piggin
commit de5604231ce4bc8db1bc1dcd27d8540cbedf1518 upstream. RCU list walking of the per-cpu vmap cache was broken. It did not use RCU primitives, and also the union of free_list and rcu_head is obviously wrong (because free_list is indeed the list we are RCU walking). While we are there, remove a couple of unused fields from an earlier iteration. These APIs aren't actually used anywhere, because of problems with the XFS conversion. Christoph has now verified that the problems are solved with these patches. Also it is an exported interface, so I think it will be good to be merged now (and Christoph wants to get the XFS changes into their local tree).

2010-02-09KVM: allow userspace to adjust kvmclock offsetGlauber Costa
(cherry picked from afbcf7ab8d1bc8c2d04792f6d9e786e0adeb328d) When we migrate a kvm guest that uses pvclock between two hosts, we may suffer a large skew. This is because there can be significant differences between the monotonic clock of the hosts involved. When a new host with a much larger monotonic time starts running the guest, the view of time will be significantly impacted. Situation is much worse when we do the opposite, and migrate to a host with a smaller monotonic clock. This proposed ioctl will allow userspace to inform us what is the monotonic clock value in the source host, so we can keep the time skew short, and more importantly, never goes backwards. Userspace may also need to trigger the current data, since from the first migration onwards, it won't be reflected by a simple call to clock_gettime() anymore.

2010-02-09firewire: core: add_descriptor size checkStefan Richter
Backport of commit e300839da40e99581581c5d053a95a172651fec8 upstream. Presently, firewire-core only checks whether descriptors that are to be added by userspace drivers to the local node's config ROM do not exceed a size of 256 quadlets. However, the sum of the bare minimum ROM plus all descriptors (from firewire-core, from firewire-net, from userspace) must not exceed 256 quadlets. Otherwise, the bounds of a statically allocated buffer will be overwritten. If the kernel survives that, firewire-core will subsequently be unable to parse the local node's config ROM. (Note, userspace drivers can add descriptors only through device files of local nodes. These are usually only accessible by root, unlike device files of remote nodes which may be accessible to lesser privileged users.) Therefore add a test which takes the actual present and required ROM size into account for all descriptors of kernelspace and userspace drivers.

2010-02-09Split 'flush_old_exec' into two functionsLinus Torvalds
commit 221af7f87b97431e3ee21ce4b0e77d5411cf1549 upstream. 'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and it is pretty badly misnamed. It doesn't just flush the old executable environment, it also starts up the new one. Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails. As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit (TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do the actual personality magic. This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the 'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail (still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()). All callers are changed to trivially comply with the new world order. Signed-off-by: H.

2010-02-09FDPIC: Respect PT_GNU_STACK exec protection markings when creating NOMMU stackMike Frysinger
commit 04e4f2b18c8de1389d1e00fef0f42a8099910daf upstream. The current code will load the stack size and protection markings, but then only use the markings in the MMU code path. The NOMMU code path always passes PROT_EXEC to the mmap() call. While this doesn't matter to most people whilst the code is running, it will cause a pointless icache flush when starting every FDPIC application. Typically this icache flush will be of a region on the order of 128KB in size, or may be the entire icache, depending on the facilities available on the CPU. In the case where the arch default behaviour seems to be desired (EXSTACK_DEFAULT), we probe VM_STACK_FLAGS for VM_EXEC to determine whether we should be setting PROT_EXEC or not. For arches that support an MPU (Memory Protection Unit - an MMU without the virtual mapping capability), setting PROT_EXEC or not will make an important difference. It should be noted that this change also affects the executability of the brk region, since ELF-FDPIC has that share with the stack. However, this is probably irrelevant as NOMMU programs aren't likely to use the brk region, preferring instead allocation via mmap().

2010-02-09mm: fix migratetype bug which slowed swappingHugh Dickins
commit a7016235a61d520e6806f38129001d935c4b6661 upstream. After memory pressure has forced it to dip into the reserves, 2.6.32's 5f8dcc21211a3d4e3a7a5ca366b469fb88117f61 "page-allocator: split per-cpu list into one-list-per-migrate-type" has been returning MIGRATE_RESERVE pages to the MIGRATE_MOVABLE free_list: in some sense depleting reserves. Fix that in the most straightforward way (which, considering the overheads of alternative approaches, is Mel's preference): the right migratetype is already in page_private(page), but free_pcppages_bulk() wasn't using it. How did this bug show up? As a 20% slowdown in my tmpfs loop kbuild swapping tests, on PowerMac G5 with SLUB allocator. Bisecting to that commit was easy, but explaining the magnitude of the slowdown not easy. The same effect appears, but much less markedly, with SLAB, and even less markedly on other machines (the PowerMac divides into fewer zones than x86, I think that may be a factor). We guess that lumpy reclaim of short-lived high-order pages is implicated in some way, and probably this bug has been tickling a poor decision somewhere in page reclaim. But instrumentation hasn't told me much, I've run out of time and imagination to determine exactly what's going on, and shouldn't hold up the fix any longer: it's valid, and might even fix other misbehaviours.

commit 9926146b15fd96d78a4f7c32e7a26d50639369f4 upstream. When testing the "e1000: enhance frame fragment detection" (and e1000e) patches we found some bugs with reducing the MTU size. The 1024 byte descriptor used with the 1000 mtu test also (re) introduced the (originally) reported bug, and causes us to need the e1000_clean_tx_irq "enhance frame fragment detection" fix. So what has occured here is that 2.6.32 is only vulnerable for mtu < 1500 due to the jumbo specific routines in both e1000 and e1000e. So, 2.6.32 needs the 2kB buffer len fix for those smaller MTUs, but is not vulnerable to the original issue reported. It has been pointed out that this vulnerability needs to be patched in older kernels that don't have the e1000 jumbo routine. Without the jumbo routines, we need the "enhance frame fragment detection" fix the e1000, old e1000e is only vulnerable for < 1500 mtu, and needs a similar fix. We split the patches up to provide easy backport paths. There is only a slight bit of extra code when this fix and the original "enhance frame fragment detection" fixes are applied, so please apply both, even though it is a bit of overkill.

2010-02-09e1000: enhance frame fragment detectionJesse Brandeburg
commit 40a14deaf411592b57cb0720f0e8004293ab9865 upstream. Originally From: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Modified by: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> Hey all- A security discussion was recently given: http://events.ccc.de/congress/2009/Fahrplan//events/3596.en.html And a patch that I submitted awhile back was brought up. Apparently some of their testing revealed that they were able to force a buffer fragment in e1000 in which the trailing fragment was greater than 4 bytes. As a result the fragment check I introduced failed to detect the fragement and a partial invalid frame was passed up into the network stack. I've written this patch to correct it. I'm in the process of testing it now, but it makes good logical sense to me. Effectively it maintains a per-adapter state variable which detects a non-EOP frame, and discards it and subsequent non-EOP frames leading up to _and_ _including_ the next positive-EOP frame (as it is by definition the last fragment). This should prevent any and all partial frames from entering the network stack from e1000.

2010-02-09libata: retry FS IOs even if it has failed with AC_ERR_INVALIDTejun Heo
commit 534ead709235b967b659947c55d9130873a432c4 upstream. libata currently doesn't retry if a command fails with AC_ERR_INVALID assuming that retrying won't get it any further even if retried. However, a failure may be classified as invalid through hardware glitch (incorrect reading of the error register or firmware bug) and there isn't whole lot to gain by not retrying as actually invalid commands will be failed immediately. Also, commands serving FS IOs are extremely unlikely to be invalid. Retry FS IOs even if it's marked invalid. Transient and incorrect invalid failure was seen while debugging firmware related issue on Samsung n130 on bko#14314. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14314 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: Johannes Stezenbach <js@sig21.net> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

commit b160091802d4a76dd063facb09fcf10bf5d5d747 upstream. CONFIG_X86_CPU_DEBUG, which provides some parsed versions of the x86 CPU configuration via debugfs, has caused boot failures on real hardware. The value of this feature has been marginal at best, as all this information is already available to userspace via generic interfaces.

2010-02-09x86: Set hotpluggable nodes in nodes_possible_mapDavid Rientjes
commit 3a5fc0e40cb467e692737bc798bc99773c81e1e2 upstream. nodes_possible_map does not currently include nodes that have SRAT entries that are all ACPI_SRAT_MEM_HOT_PLUGGABLE since the bit is cleared in nodes_parsed if it does not have an online address range. Unequivocally setting the bit in nodes_parsed is insufficient since existing code, such as acpi_get_nodes(), assumes all nodes in the map have online address ranges. In fact, all code using nodes_parsed assumes such nodes represent an address range of online memory. nodes_possible_map is created by unioning nodes_parsed and cpu_nodes_parsed; the former represents nodes with online memory and the latter represents memoryless nodes. We now set the bit for hotpluggable nodes in cpu_nodes_parsed so that it also gets set in nodes_possible_map. [ hpa: Haicheng Li points out that this makes the naming of the variable cpu_nodes_parsed somewhat counterintuitive. However, leave it as is in the interest of keeping the pure bug fix patch small. ] Signed-off-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Tested-by: Haicheng Li <haicheng.li@linux.intel.com> LKML-Reference: <alpine.DEB.2.00.1001201152040.30528@chino.kir.corp.google.com> Signed-off-by: H.

2010-02-09firewire: ohci: fix crashes with TSB43AB23 on 64bit systemsStefan Richter
commit 7a481436787cbc932af6c407b317ac603969a242 upstream. Unsurprisingly, Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 exhibits the same behaviour as TSB43AB22/A in dual buffer IR DMA mode: If descriptors are located at physical addresses above the 31 bit address range (2 GB), the controller will overwrite random memory. With luck, this merely prevents video reception. With only a little less luck, the machine crashes. We use the same workaround here as with TSB43AB22/A: Switch off the dual buffer capability flag and use packet-per-buffer IR DMA instead. Another possible workaround would be to limit the coherent DMA mask to 31 bits. In Linux 2.6.33, this change serves effectively only as documentation since dual buffer mode is not used for any controller anymore. But somebody might want to re-enable it in the future to make use of features of dual buffer DMA that are not available in packet-per-buffer mode. In Linux 2.6.32 and older, this update is vital for anyone with this controller, more than 2 GB RAM, a 64 bit kernel, and FireWire video or audio applications.
