commit aac74dc495456412c4130a1167ce4beb6c1f0b38 upstream.
After learning we'll need some sort of deferred printk functionality in
the timekeeping core, Peter suggested we rename the printk_sched function
so it can be reused by needed subsystems.
This only changes the function name. No logic changes.

commit 1a112d10f03e83fb3a2fdc4c9165865dec8a3ca6 upstream.
1871ee134b73 ("libata: support the ata host which implements a queue
depth less than 32") directly used ata_port->scsi_host->can_queue from
ata_qc_new() to determine the number of tags supported by the host;
unfortunately, SAS controllers doing SATA don't initialize ->scsi_host
leading to the following oops.

Fix it by introducing ata_host->n_tags which is initialized to
ATA_MAX_QUEUE - 1 in ata_host_init() for SAS controllers and set to
scsi_host_template->can_queue in ata_host_register() for !SAS ones.
As SAS hosts are never registered, this will give them the same
ATA_MAX_QUEUE - 1 as before. Note that we can't use
scsi_host->can_queue directly for SAS hosts anyway as they can go
higher than the libata maximum.

commit 8b8b36834d0fff67fc8668093f4312dd04dcf21d upstream.
The per_cpu buffers are created one per possible CPU. But these do
not mean that those CPUs are online, nor do they even exist.
With the addition of the ring buffer polling, it assumes that the
caller polls on an existing buffer. But this is not the case if
the user reads trace_pipe from a CPU that does not exist, and this
causes the kernel to crash.
Simple fix is to check the cpu against buffer bitmask against to see
if the buffer was allocated or not and return -ENODEV if it is
not.
More updates were done to pass the -ENODEV back up to userspace.

commit b9cd18de4db3c9ffa7e17b0dc0ca99ed5aa4d43a upstream.
The 'sysret' fastpath does not correctly restore even all regular
registers, much less any segment registers or reflags values. That is
very much part of why it's faster than 'iret'.
Normally that isn't a problem, because the normal ptrace() interface
catches the process using the signal handler infrastructure, which
always returns with an iret.
However, some paths can get caught using ptrace_event() instead of the
signal path, and for those we need to make sure that we aren't going to
return to user space using 'sysret'. Otherwise the modifications that
may have been done to the register set by the tracer wouldn't
necessarily take effect.
Fix it by forcing IRET path by setting TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME from
arch_ptrace_stop_needed() which is invoked from ptrace_stop().

commit 1e77d0a1ed7417d2a5a52a7b8d32aea1833faa6c upstream.
Till reported that the spurious interrupt detection of threaded
interrupts is broken in two ways:
- note_interrupt() is called for each action thread of a shared
interrupt line. That's wrong as we are only interested whether none
of the device drivers felt responsible for the interrupt, but by
calling multiple times for a single interrupt line we account
IRQ_NONE even if one of the drivers felt responsible.
- note_interrupt() when called from the thread handler is not
serialized. That leaves the members of irq_desc which are used for
the spurious detection unprotected.
To solve this we need to defer the spurious detection of a threaded
interrupt to the next hardware interrupt context where we have
implicit serialization.
If note_interrupt is called with action_ret == IRQ_WAKE_THREAD, we
check whether the previous interrupt requested a deferred check. If
not, we request a deferred check for the next hardware interrupt and
return.
If set, we check whether one of the interrupt threads signaled
success. Depending on this information we feed the result into the
spurious detector.
If one primary handler of a shared interrupt returns IRQ_HANDLED we
disable the deferred check of irq threads on the same line, as we have
found at least one device driver who cared.

commit 4e52365f279564cef0ddd41db5237f0471381093 upstream.
When tracing a process in another pid namespace, it's important for fork
event messages to contain the child's pid as seen from the tracer's pid
namespace, not the parent's. Otherwise, the tracer won't be able to
correlate the fork event with later SIGTRAP signals it receives from the
child.
We still risk a race condition if a ptracer from a different pid
namespace attaches after we compute the pid_t value. However, sending a
bogus fork event message in this unlikely scenario is still a vast
improvement over the status quo where we always send bogus fork event
messages to debuggers in a different pid namespace than the forking
process.

[ Upstream commit 9d0d68faea6962d62dd501cd6e71ce5cc8ed262b ]
Now it is not possible to set mtu to team device which has a port
enslaved to it. The reason is that when team_change_mtu() calls
dev_set_mtu() for port device, notificator for NETDEV_PRECHANGEMTU
event is called and team_device_event() returns NOTIFY_BAD forbidding
the change. So fix this by returning NOTIFY_DONE here in case team is
changing mtu in team_change_mtu().

[ Upstream commit 2d7a85f4b06e9c27ff629f07a524c48074f07f81 ]
It was possible to get a setuid root or setcap executable to write to
it's stdout or stderr (which has been set made a netlink socket) and
inadvertently reconfigure the networking stack.
To prevent this we check that both the creator of the socket and
the currentl applications has permission to reconfigure the network
stack.
Unfortunately this breaks Zebra which always uses sendto/sendmsg
and creates it's socket without any privileges.
To keep Zebra working don't bother checking if the creator of the
socket has privilege when a destination address is specified. Instead
rely exclusively on the privileges of the sender of the socket.
Note from Andy: This is exactly Eric's code except for some comment
clarifications and formatting fixes. Neither I nor, I think, anyone
else is thrilled with this approach, but I'm hesitant to wait on a
better fix since 3.15 is almost here.
Note to stable maintainers: This is a mess. An earlier series of
patches in 3.15 fix a rather serious security issue (CVE-2014-0181),
but they did so in a way that breaks Zebra. The offending series
includes:
commit aa4cf9452f469f16cea8c96283b641b4576d4a7b
Author: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
Date: Wed Apr 23 14:28:03 2014 -0700
net: Add variants of capable for use on netlink messages
If a given kernel version is missing that series of fixes, it's
probably worth backporting it and this patch. if that series is
present, then this fix is critical if you care about Zebra.

The permission check in sock_diag_put_filterinfo is wrong, and it is so removed
from it's sources it is not clear why it is wrong. Move the computation
into packet_diag_dump and pass a bool of the result into sock_diag_filterinfo.
This does not yet correct the capability check but instead simply moves it to make
it clear what is going on.

commit 23adbe12ef7d3d4195e80800ab36b37bee28cd03 upstream.
The kernel has no concept of capabilities with respect to inodes; inodes
exist independently of namespaces. For example, inode_capable(inode,
CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE) would be nonsense.
This patch changes inode_capable to check for uid and gid mappings and
renames it to capable_wrt_inode_uidgid, which should make it more
obvious what it does.
Fixes CVE-2014-4014.

commit 14c63f17b1fde5a575a28e96547a22b451c71fb5 upstream.
This patch keeps track of how long perf's NMI handler is taking,
and also calculates how many samples perf can take a second. If
the sample length times the expected max number of samples
exceeds a configurable threshold, it drops the sample rate.
This way, we don't have a runaway sampling process eating up the
CPU.
This patch can tend to drop the sample rate down to level where
perf doesn't work very well. *BUT* the alternative is that my
system hangs because it spends all of its time handling NMIs.
I'll take a busted performance tool over an entire system that's
busted and undebuggable any day.
BTW, my suspicion is that there's still an underlying bug here.
Using the HPET instead of the TSC is definitely a contributing
factor, but I suspect there are some other things going on.
But, I can't go dig down on a bug like that with my machine
hanging all the time.

commit 4c88d7f9b0d5fb0588c3386be62115cc2eaa8f9f upstream.
Patch 01f8fa4f01d "genirq: Allow forcing cpu affinity of interrupts" added
an irq_force_affinity() function, and 30ccf03b4a6 "clocksource: Exynos_mct:
Use irq_force_affinity() in cpu bringup" subsequently uses it. However, the
driver can be used with CONFIG_SMP disabled, but the function declaration
is only available for CONFIG_SMP, leading to this build error:
drivers/clocksource/exynos_mct.c:431:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'irq_force_affinity' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
irq_force_affinity(mct_irqs[MCT_L0_IRQ + cpu], cpumask_of(cpu));
This patch introduces a dummy helper function for the non-SMP case
that always returns success, to get rid of the build error.
Since the patches causing the problem are marked for stable backports,
this one should be as well.

commit 01f8fa4f01d8362358eb90e412bd7ae18a3ec1ad upstream.
The current implementation of irq_set_affinity() refuses rightfully to
route an interrupt to an offline cpu.
But there is a special case, where this is actually desired. Some of
the ARM SoCs have per cpu timers which require setting the affinity
during cpu startup where the cpu is not yet in the online mask.
If we can't do that, then the local timer interrupt for the about to
become online cpu is routed to some random online cpu.
The developers of the affected machines tried to work around that
issue, but that results in a massive mess in that timer code.
We have a yet unused argument in the set_affinity callbacks of the irq
chips, which I added back then for a similar reason. It was never
required so it got not used. But I'm happy that I never removed it.
That allows us to implement a sane handling of the above scenario. So
the affected SoC drivers can add the required force handling to their
interrupt chip, switch the timer code to irq_force_affinity() and
things just work.
This does not affect any existing user of irq_set_affinity().
Tagged for stable to allow a simple fix of the affected SoC clock
event drivers.

commit a949ae560a511fe4e3adf48fa44fefded93e5c2b upstream.
A race exists between module loading and enabling of function tracer.
CPU 1 CPU 2
----- -----
load_module()
module->state = MODULE_STATE_COMING
register_ftrace_function()
mutex_lock(&ftrace_lock);
ftrace_startup()
update_ftrace_function();
ftrace_arch_code_modify_prepare()
set_all_module_text_rw();
<enables-ftrace>
ftrace_arch_code_modify_post_process()
set_all_module_text_ro();
[ here all module text is set to RO,
including the module that is
loading!! ]
blocking_notifier_call_chain(MODULE_STATE_COMING);
ftrace_init_module()
[ tries to modify code, but it's RO, and fails!
ftrace_bug() is called]
When this race happens, ftrace_bug() will produces a nasty warning and
all of the function tracing features will be disabled until reboot.
The simple solution is to treate module load the same way the core
kernel is treated at boot. To hardcode the ftrace function modification
of converting calls to mcount into nops. This is done in init/main.c
there's no reason it could not be done in load_module(). This gives
a better control of the changes and doesn't tie the state of the
module to its notifiers as much. Ftrace is special, it needs to be
treated as such.
The reason this would work, is that the ftrace_module_init() would be
called while the module is in MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, which is ignored
by the set_all_module_text_ro() call.

commit 8a4aeec8d2d6a3edeffbdfae451cdf05cbf0fefd upstream.
The AHCI spec allows implementations to issue commands in tag order
rather than FIFO order:
5.3.2.12 P:SelectCmd
HBA sets pSlotLoc = (pSlotLoc + 1) mod (CAP.NCS + 1)
or HBA selects the command to issue that has had the
PxCI bit set to '1' longer than any other command
pending to be issued.
The result is that commands posted sequentially (time-wise) may play out
of sequence when issued by hardware.
This behavior has likely been hidden by drives that arrange for commands
to complete in issue order. However, it appears recent drives (two from
different vendors that we have found so far) inflict out-of-order
completions as a matter of course. So, we need to take care to maintain
ordered submission, otherwise we risk triggering a drive to fall out of
sequential-io automation and back to random-io processing, which incurs
large latency and degrades throughput.
This issue was found in simple benchmarks where QD=2 seq-write
performance was 30-50% *greater* than QD=32 seq-write performance.
Tagging for -stable and making the change globally since it has a low
risk-to-reward ratio. Also, word is that recent versions of an unnamed
OS also does it this way now. So, drives in the field are already
experienced with this tag ordering scheme.

commit 3064639423c48d6e0eb9ecc27c512a58e38c6c57 upstream.
There could be a case, when NFSd file system is mounted in network, different
to socket's one, like below:
"ip netns exec" creates new network and mount namespace, which duplicates NFSd
mount point, created in init_net context. And thus NFS server stop in nested
network context leads to RPCBIND client destruction in init_net.
Then, on NFSd start in nested network context, rpc.nfsd process creates socket
in nested net and passes it into "write_ports", which leads to RPCBIND sockets
creation in init_net context because of the same reason (NFSd monut point was
created in init_net context). An attempt to register passed socket in nested
net leads to panic, because no RPCBIND client present in nexted network
namespace.
This patch add check that passed socket's net matches NFSd superblock's one.
And returns -EINVAL error to user psace otherwise.
v2: Put socket on exit.

commit 5acda9d12dcf1ad0d9a5a2a7c646de3472fa7555 upstream.
After commit 839a8e8660b6 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool
implementation with unbound workqueue") when device is removed while we
are writing to it we crash in bdi_writeback_workfn() ->
set_worker_desc() because bdi->dev is NULL.
This can happen because even though bdi_unregister() cancels all pending
flushing work, nothing really prevents new ones from being queued from
balance_dirty_pages() or other places.
Fix the problem by clearing BDI_registered bit in bdi_unregister() and
checking it before scheduling of any flushing work.

commit 95731ebb114c5f0c028459388560fc2a72fe5049 upstream.
Cpufreq governors' stop and start operations should be carried out
in sequence. Otherwise, there will be unexpected behavior, like in
the example below.
Suppose there are 4 CPUs and policy->cpu=CPU0, CPU1/2/3 are linked
to CPU0. The normal sequence is:
1) Current governor is userspace. An application tries to set the
governor to ondemand. It will call __cpufreq_set_policy() in
which it will stop the userspace governor and then start the
ondemand governor.
2) Current governor is userspace. The online of CPU3 runs on CPU0.
It will call cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() in which it will first
stop the userspace governor, and then start it again.
If the sequence of the above two cases interleaves, it becomes:
1) Application stops userspace governor
2) Hotplug stops userspace governor
which is a problem, because the governor shouldn't be stopped twice
in a row. What happens next is:
3) Application starts ondemand governor
4) Hotplug starts a governor
In step 4, the hotplug is supposed to start the userspace governor,
but now the governor has been changed by the application to ondemand,
so the ondemand governor is started once again, which is incorrect.
The solution is to prevent policy governors from being stopped
multiple times in a row. A governor should only be stopped once for
one policy. After it has been stopped, no more governor stop
operations should be executed.
Also add a mutex to serialize governor operations.

If an architecture has futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() implemented and there
is no runtime check necessary, allow to skip the test within futex_init().
This allows to get rid of some code which would always give the same result,

[ Upstream commit 14a0d635d18d0fb552dcc979d6d25106e6541f2e ]
This fixes a race which happens by freeing an object on the stack.

The fix is to just not allocate the data structure on the stack.
As dev->wait is abused as a flag it also takes a runtime PM change
to fix this bug.

commit 668f9abbd4334e6c29fa8acd71635c4f9101caa7 upstream.
Commit bf6bddf1924e ("mm: introduce compaction and migration for
ballooned pages") introduces page_count(page) into memory compaction
which dereferences page->first_page if PageTail(page).
This results in a very rare NULL pointer dereference on the
aforementioned page_count(page). Indeed, anything that does
compound_head(), including page_count() is susceptible to racing with
prep_compound_page() and seeing a NULL or dangling page->first_page
pointer.
This patch uses Andrea's implementation of compound_trans_head() that
deals with such a race and makes it the default compound_head()
implementation. This includes a read memory barrier that ensures that
if PageTail(head) is true that we return a head page that is neither
NULL nor dangling. The patch then adds a store memory barrier to
prep_compound_page() to ensure page->first_page is set.
This is the safest way to ensure we see the head page that we are
expecting, PageTail(page) is already in the unlikely() path and the
memory barriers are unfortunately required.
Hugetlbfs is the exception, we don't enforce a store memory barrier
during init since no race is possible.

commit d29adb34a94715174c88ca93e8aba955850c9bde upstream.
The PAUSEWR and PAUSERD flags are meant to stop the cluster from
processing writes and reads, respectively. The FULL flag is set when
the cluster determines that it is out of space, and will no longer
process writes. PAUSEWR and PAUSERD are purely client-side settings
already implemented in userspace clients. The osd does nothing special
with these flags.
When the FULL flag is set, however, the osd responds to all writes
with -ENOSPC. For cephfs, this makes sense, but for rbd the block
layer translates this into EIO. If a cluster goes from full to
non-full quickly, a filesystem on top of rbd will not behave well,
since some writes succeed while others get EIO.
Fix this by blocking any writes when the FULL flag is set in the osd
client. This is the same strategy used by userspace, so apply it by
default. A follow-on patch makes this configurable.
__map_request() is called to re-target osd requests in case the
available osds changed. Add a paused field to a ceph_osd_request, and
set it whenever an appropriate osd map flag is set. Avoid queueing
paused requests in __map_request(), but force them to be resent if
they become unpaused.
Also subscribe to the next osd map from the monitor if any of these
flags are set, so paused requests can be unblocked as soon as
possible.

commit 87291347c49dc40aa339f587b209618201c2e527 upstream.
In event format strings, the array size is reported in two locations.
One in array subscript and then via the "size:" attribute. The values
reported there have a mismatch.
For e.g., in sched:sched_switch the prev_comm and next_comm character
arrays have subscript values as [32] where as the actual field size is
16.
name: sched_switch
ID: 301
format:
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1;signed:0;
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;
field:char prev_comm[32]; offset:8; size:16; signed:1;
field:pid_t prev_pid; offset:24; size:4; signed:1;
field:int prev_prio; offset:28; size:4; signed:1;
field:long prev_state; offset:32; size:8; signed:1;
field:char next_comm[32]; offset:40; size:16; signed:1;
field:pid_t next_pid; offset:56; size:4; signed:1;
field:int next_prio; offset:60; size:4; signed:1;
After bisection, the following commit was blamed:
92edca0 tracing: Use direct field, type and system names
This commit removes the duplication of strings for field->name and
field->type assuming that all the strings passed in
__trace_define_field() are immutable. This is not true for arrays, where
the type string is created in event_storage variable and field->type for
all array fields points to event_storage.
Use __stringify() to create a string constant for the type string.
Also, get rid of event_storage and event_storage_mutex that are not
needed anymore.
also, an added benefit is that this reduces the overhead of events a bit more:

commit 5a581b367b5df0531265311fc681c2abd377e5e6 upstream.
According to the C standard 3.4.3p3, overflow of a signed integer results
in undefined behavior. This commit therefore changes the definitions
of time_after(), time_after_eq(), time_after64(), and time_after_eq64()
to avoid this undefined behavior. The trick is that the subtraction
is done using unsigned arithmetic, which according to 6.2.5p9 cannot
overflow because it is defined as modulo arithmetic. This has the added
(though admittedly quite small) benefit of shortening four lines of code
by four characters each.
Note that the C standard considers the cast from unsigned to
signed to be implementation-defined, see 6.3.1.3p3. However, on a
two's-complement system, an implementation that defines anything other
than a reinterpretation of the bits is free to come to me, and I will be
happy to act as a witness for its being committed to an insane asylum.
(Although I have nothing against saturating arithmetic or signals in some
cases, these things really should not be the default when compiling an
operating-system kernel.)

commit 70044d71d31d6973665ced5be04ef39ac1c09a48 upstream.
PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK() are being phased out. They have few users
and a nasty surprise in terms of reentrancy guarantee as workqueue
considers work items to be different if they don't have the same work
function.
firewire core-device and sbp2 have been been multiplexing work items
with multiple work functions. Introduce fw_device_workfn() and
sbp2_lu_workfn() which invoke fw_device->workfn and
sbp2_logical_unit->workfn respectively and always use the two
functions as the work functions and update the users to set the
->workfn fields instead of overriding work functions using
PREPARE_DELAYED_WORK().
This fixes a variety of possible regressions since a2c1c57be8d9
"workqueue: consider work function when searching for busy work items"
due to which fw_workqueue lost its required non-reentrancy property.

If a module fails to add its tracepoints due to module tainting, do not

Having a warning on module load and the events not visible to the users

commit f3713fd9cff733d9df83116422d8e4af6e86b2bb upstream.
Commit 93e6f119c0ce ("ipc/mqueue: cleanup definition names and
locations") added global hardcoded limits to the amount of message
queues that can be created. While these limits are per-namespace,
reality is that it ends up breaking userspace applications.
Historically users have, at least in theory, been able to create up to
INT_MAX queues, and limiting it to just 1024 is way too low and dramatic
for some workloads and use cases. For instance, Madars reports:
"This update imposes bad limits on our multi-process application. As
our app uses approaches that each process opens its own set of queues
(usually something about 3-5 queues per process). In some scenarios
we might run up to 3000 processes or more (which of-course for linux
is not a problem). Thus we might need up to 9000 queues or more. All
processes run under one user."
Other affected users can be found in launchpad bug #1155695:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/manpages/+bug/1155695
Instead of increasing this limit, revert it entirely and fallback to the
original way of dealing queue limits -- where once a user's resource
limit is reached, and all memory is used, new queues cannot be created.

commit fe6cc55f3a9a053482a76f5a6b2257cee51b4663 upstream.
Marcelo Ricardo Leitner reported problems when the forwarding link path
has a lower mtu than the incoming one if the inbound interface supports GRO.
Given:
Host <mtu1500> R1 <mtu1200> R2
Host sends tcp stream which is routed via R1 and R2. R1 performs GRO.
In this case, the kernel will fail to send ICMP fragmentation needed
messages (or pkt too big for ipv6), as GSO packets currently bypass dstmtu
checks in forward path. Instead, Linux tries to send out packets exceeding
the mtu.
When locking route MTU on Host (i.e., no ipv4 DF bit set), R1 does
not fragment the packets when forwarding, and again tries to send out
packets exceeding R1-R2 link mtu.
This alters the forwarding dstmtu checks to take the individual gso
segment lengths into account.
For ipv6, we send out pkt too big error for gso if the individual
segments are too big.
For ipv4, we either send icmp fragmentation needed, or, if the DF bit
is not set, perform software segmentation and let the output path
create fragments when the packet is leaving the machine.
It is not 100% correct as the error message will contain the headers of
the GRO skb instead of the original/segmented one, but it seems to
work fine in my (limited) tests.
Eric Dumazet suggested to simply shrink mss via ->gso_size to avoid
sofware segmentation.
However it turns out that skb_segment() assumes skb nr_frags is related
to mss size so we would BUG there. I don't want to mess with it considering
Herbert and Eric disagree on what the correct behavior should be.
Hannes Frederic Sowa notes that when we would shrink gso_size
skb_segment would then also need to deal with the case where
SKB_MAX_FRAGS would be exceeded.
This uses sofware segmentation in the forward path when we hit ipv4
non-DF packets and the outgoing link mtu is too small. Its not perfect,
but given the lack of bug reports wrt. GRO fwd being broken this is a
rare case anyway. Also its not like this could not be improved later
once the dust settles.

commit a9f180345f5378ac87d80ed0bea55ba421d83859 upstream.
I started noticing problems with KVM guest destruction on Linux
3.12+, where guest memory wasn't being cleaned up. I bisected it
down to the commit introducing the new 'asm goto'-based atomics,
and found this quirk was later applied to those.
Unfortunately, even with GCC 4.8.2 (which ostensibly fixed the
known 'asm goto' bug) I am still getting some kind of
miscompilation. If I enable the asm_volatile_goto quirk for my
compiler, KVM guests are destroyed correctly and the memory is
cleaned up.
So make the quirk unconditional for now, until bug is found
and fixed.

architectures to the new compat_sys_lookup_dcookie() syscall.
The "len" paramater of the new compat syscall must have the type
compat_size_t in order to enforce zero extension for architectures where
the ABI requires that the caller of a function performed zero and/or
sign extension to 64 bit of all parameters.

commit dfd948e32af2e7b28bcd7a490c0a30d4b8df2a36 upstream.
We got a report that the pwritev syscall does not work correctly in
compat mode on s390.
It turned out that with commit 72ec35163f9f ("switch compat readv/writev
variants to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE") we lost the zero extension of a
couple of syscall parameters because the some parameter types haven't
been converted from unsigned long to compat_ulong_t.
This is needed for architectures where the ABI requires that the caller
of a function performed zero and/or sign extension to 64 bit of all
parameters.

commit a1c3bfb2f67ef766de03f1f56bdfff9c8595ab14 upstream.
The VM is currently heavily tuned to avoid swapping. Whether that is
good or bad is a separate discussion, but as long as the VM won't swap
to make room for dirty cache, we can not consider anonymous pages when
calculating the amount of dirtyable memory, the baseline to which
dirty_background_ratio and dirty_ratio are applied.
A simple workload that occupies a significant size (40+%, depending on
memory layout, storage speeds etc.) of memory with anon/tmpfs pages and
uses the remainder for a streaming writer demonstrates this problem. In
that case, the actual cache pages are a small fraction of what is
considered dirtyable overall, which results in an relatively large
portion of the cache pages to be dirtied. As kswapd starts rotating
these, random tasks enter direct reclaim and stall on IO.
Only consider free pages and file pages dirtyable.

commit 06bdadd7634551cfe8ce071fe44d0311b3033d9e upstream.
audit_syscall_exit() saves a result of regs_return_value() in intermediate
"int" variable and passes it to __audit_syscall_exit(), which expects its
second argument as a "long" value. This will result in truncating the
value returned by a system call and making a wrong audit record.
I don't know why gcc compiler doesn't complain about this, but anyway it
causes a problem at runtime on arm64 (and probably most 64-bit archs).

Having this struct in module memory could Oops when if the module is
unloaded while the buffer still persists in a pipe.
Since sock_pipe_buf_ops is essentially the same as fuse_dev_pipe_buf_steal
merge them into nosteal_pipe_buf_ops (this is the same as
default_pipe_buf_ops except stealing the page from the buffer is not
allowed).

commit ecd75ad514d73efc1bbcc5f10a13566c3ace5f53 upstream.
For some reason, some early WD drives spin up and down drives
erratically when the link is put into slumber mode which can reduce
the life expectancy of the device significantly. Unfortunately, we
don't have full list of devices and given the nature of the issue it'd
be better to err on the side of false positives than the other way
around. Let's disable LPM on all WD devices which match one of the
known problematic model prefixes and are SATA-I.
As horkage list doesn't support matching SATA capabilities, this is
implemented as two horkages - WD_BROKEN_LPM and NOLPM. The former is
set for the known prefixes and sets the latter if the matched device
is SATA-I.
Note that this isn't optimal as this disables all LPM operations and
partial link power state reportedly works fine on these; however, the
way LPM is implemented in libata makes it difficult to precisely map
libata LPM setting to specific link power state. Well, these devices
are already fairly outdated. Let's just disable whole LPM for now.

commit 27c73ae759774e63313c1fbfeb17ba076cea64c5 upstream.
Commit 7cb2ef56e6a8 ("mm: fix aio performance regression for database
caused by THP") can cause dereference of a dangling pointer if
split_huge_page runs during PageHuge() if there are updates to the
tail_page->private field.
Also it is repeating compound_head twice for hugetlbfs and it is running
compound_head+compound_trans_head for THP when a single one is needed in
both cases.
The new code within the PageSlab() check doesn't need to verify that the
THP page size is never bigger than the smallest hugetlbfs page size, to
avoid memory corruption.
A longstanding theoretical race condition was found while fixing the
above (see the change right after the skip_unlock label, that is
relevant for the compound_lock path too).
By re-establishing the _mapcount tail refcounting for all compound
pages, this also fixes the below problem:

commit f92f455f67fef27929e6043499414605b0c94872 upstream.
{,set}page_address() are macros if WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL. If
!WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL, they're plain C functions.
If someone calls them with a void *, this pointer is auto-converted to
struct page * if !WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL, but causes a build failure on
architectures using WANT_PAGE_VIRTUAL (arc, m68k and sparc64):
drivers/md/bcache/bset.c: In function `__btree_sort':
drivers/md/bcache/bset.c:1190: warning: dereferencing `void *' pointer
drivers/md/bcache/bset.c:1190: error: request for member `virtual' in something not a structure or union
Convert them to static inline functions to fix this. There are already
plenty of users of struct page members inside <linux/mm.h>, so there's
no reason to keep them as macros.

[ Upstream commit 2205369a314e12fcec4781cc73ac9c08fc2b47de ]
When the vlan code detects that the real device can do TX VLAN offloads
in hardware, it tries to arrange for the real device's header_ops to
be invoked directly.
But it does so illegally, by simply hooking the real device's
header_ops up to the VLAN device.
This doesn't work because we will end up invoking a set of header_ops
routines which expect a device type which matches the real device, but
will see a VLAN device instead.
Fix this by providing a pass-thru set of header_ops which will arrange
to pass the proper real device instead.
To facilitate this add a dev_rebuild_header(). There are
implementations which provide a ->cache and ->create but not a
->rebuild (f.e. PLIP). So we need a helper function just like
dev_hard_header() to avoid crashes.
Use this helper in the one existing place where the
header_ops->rebuild was being invoked, the neighbour code.
With lots of help from Florian Westphal.

unix_dgram_recvmsg() will hold the readlock of the socket until recv
is complete.
In the same time, we may try to setsockopt(SO_PEEK_OFF) which will hang until
unix_dgram_recvmsg() will complete (which can take a while) without allowing
us to break out of it, triggering a hung task spew.
Instead, allow set_peek_off to fail, this way userspace will not hang.

commit dd935f44a40f8fb02aff2cc0df2269c92422df1c upstream.
Without a way to flush the osd client's notify workqueue, a watch
event that is unregistered could continue receiving callbacks
indefinitely.
Unregistering the event simply means no new notifies are added to the
queue, but there may still be events in the queue that will call the
watch callback for the event. If the queue is flushed after the event
is unregistered, the caller can be sure no more watch callbacks will
occur for the canceled watch.
