commit b627c8b17ccacba38c975bc0f69a49fc4e5261c9 upstream.
Impact: fix boot crash on AMD IOMMU if CONFIG_GART_IOMMU is off
Currently these macros evaluate to a no-op except the kernel is compiled
with GART or Calgary support. But we also need these macros when we have
SWIOTLB, VT-d or AMD IOMMU in the kernel. Since we always compile at
least with SWIOTLB we can define these macros always.
This patch is also for stable backport for the same reason the SWIOTLB
default selection patch is.

commit 6ff2d39b91aec3dcae951afa982059e3dd9b49dc upstream.
2nd part of the fixes needed for
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11796.
When the idr tree is either grown or shrunk, then the update to the number
of layers and the top pointer were not atomic. This race caused crashes.
The attached patch fixes that by replicating the layers counter in each
layer, thus idr_find doesn't need idp->layers anymore.

commit 8f7b0ba1c853919b85b54774775f567f30006107 upstream.
Inotify watch removals suck violently.
To kick the watch out we need (in this order) inode->inotify_mutex and
ih->mutex. That's fine if we have a hold on inode; however, for all
other cases we need to make damn sure we don't race with umount. We can
*NOT* just grab a reference to a watch - inotify_unmount_inodes() will
happily sail past it and we'll end with reference to inode potentially
outliving its superblock.
Ideally we just want to grab an active reference to superblock if we
can; that will make sure we won't go into inotify_umount_inodes() until
we are done. Cleanup is just deactivate_super().
However, that leaves a messy case - what if we *are* racing with
umount() and active references to superblock can't be acquired anymore?
We can bump ->s_count, grab ->s_umount, which will almost certainly wait
until the superblock is shut down and the watch in question is pining
for fjords. That's fine, but there is a problem - we might have hit the
window between ->s_active getting to 0 / ->s_count - below S_BIAS (i.e.
the moment when superblock is past the point of no return and is heading
for shutdown) and the moment when deactivate_super() acquires
->s_umount.
We could just do drop_super() yield() and retry, but that's rather
antisocial and this stuff is luser-triggerable. OTOH, having grabbed
->s_umount and having found that we'd got there first (i.e. that
->s_root is non-NULL) we know that we won't race with
inotify_umount_inodes().
So we could grab a reference to watch and do the rest as above, just
with drop_super() instead of deactivate_super(), right? Wrong. We had
to drop ih->mutex before we could grab ->s_umount. So the watch
could've been gone already.
That still can be dealt with - we need to save watch->wd, do idr_find()
and compare its result with our pointer. If they match, we either have
the damn thing still alive or we'd lost not one but two races at once,
the watch had been killed and a new one got created with the same ->wd
at the same address. That couldn't have happened in inotify_destroy(),
but inotify_rm_wd() could run into that. Still, "new one got created"
is not a problem - we have every right to kill it or leave it alone,
whatever's more convenient.
So we can use idr_find(...) == watch && watch->inode->i_sb == sb as
"grab it and kill it" check. If it's been our original watch, we are
fine, if it's a newcomer - nevermind, just pretend that we'd won the
race and kill the fscker anyway; we are safe since we know that its
superblock won't be going away.
And yes, this is far beyond mere "not very pretty"; so's the entire
concept of inotify to start with.

commit 7ef9964e6d1b911b78709f144000aacadd0ebc21 upstream.
It has been thought that the per-user file descriptors limit would also
limit the resources that a normal user can request via the epoll
interface. Vegard Nossum reported a very simple program (a modified
version attached) that can make a normal user to request a pretty large
amount of kernel memory, well within the its maximum number of fds. To
solve such problem, default limits are now imposed, and /proc based
configuration has been introduced. A new directory has been created,
named /proc/sys/fs/epoll/ and inside there, there are two configuration
points:
max_user_instances = Maximum number of devices - per user
max_user_watches = Maximum number of "watched" fds - per user
The current default for "max_user_watches" limits the memory used by epoll
to store "watches", to 1/32 of the amount of the low RAM. As example, a
256MB 32bit machine, will have "max_user_watches" set to roughly 90000.
That should be enough to not break existing heavy epoll users. The
default value for "max_user_instances" is set to 128, that should be
enough too.
This also changes the userspace, because a new error code can now come out
from EPOLL_CTL_ADD (-ENOSPC). The EMFILE from epoll_create() was already
listed, so that should be ok.

commit 352d026338378b1f13f044e33c1047da6e470056 upstream.
This patch (as1155) fixes a bug in usbcore. When interfaces are
deleted, either because the device was disconnected or because of a
configuration change, the extra attribute files and child endpoint
devices may get left behind. This is because the core removes them
before calling device_del(). But during device_del(), after the
driver is unbound the core will reinstall altsetting 0 and recreate
those extra attributes and children.
The patch prevents this by adding a flag to record when the interface
is in the midst of being unregistered. When the flag is set, the
attribute files and child devices will not be created.

commit 8677142710516d986d932d6f1fba7be8382c1fec upstream
backported by Nikanth Karthikesan <knikanth@suse.de> to the 2.6.27.y tree.
block: fix nr_phys_segments miscalculation bug
This fixes the bug reported by Nikanth Karthikesan <knikanth@suse.de>:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/10/2/203
The root cause of the bug is that blk_phys_contig_segment
miscalculates q->max_segment_size.
blk_phys_contig_segment checks:
req->biotail->bi_size + next_req->bio->bi_size > q->max_segment_size
But blk_recalc_rq_segments might expect that req->biotail and the
previous bio in the req are supposed be merged into one
segment. blk_recalc_rq_segments might also expect that next_req->bio
and the next bio in the next_req are supposed be merged into one
segment. In such case, we merge two requests that can't be merged
here. Later, blk_rq_map_sg gives more segments than it should.
We need to keep track of segment size in blk_recalc_rq_segments and
use it to see if two requests can be merged. This patch implements it
in the similar way that we used to do for hw merging (virtual
merging).

commit c5d712433ff57a66d8fb79a57a4fc7a7c3467b97 upstream
Fix the __pfn_to_page(pfn) macro so that it doesn't evaluate its
argument twice in the CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y case, because 'pfn' may
be a result of a funtion call having side effects.
For example, the hibernation code applies pfn_to_page(pfn) to the
result of a function returning the pfn corresponding to the next set
bit in a bitmap and the current bit position is modified on each
call. This leads to "interesting" failures for CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y
due to the current behavior of __pfn_to_page(pfn).

commit 6209344f5a3795d34b7f2c0061f49802283b6bdd upstream
Previously I assumed that the receive queues of candidates don't
change during the GC. This is only half true, nothing can be received
from the queues (see comment in unix_gc()), but buffers could be added
through the other half of the socket pair, which may still have file
descriptors referring to it.
This can result in inc_inflight_move_tail() erronously increasing the
"inflight" counter for a unix socket for which dec_inflight() wasn't
previously called. This in turn can trigger the "BUG_ON(total_refs <
inflight_refs)" in a later garbage collection run.
Fix this by only manipulating the "inflight" counter for sockets which
are candidates themselves. Duplicating the file references in
unix_attach_fds() is also needed to prevent a socket becoming a
candidate for GC while the skb that contains it is not yet queued.

commit 467622ef2acb01986eab37ef96c3632b3ea35999 upstream
For "unlock" cycles to 16bit devices in 8bit compatibility mode we need
to use the byte addresses 0xaaa and 0x555. These effectively match
the word address 0x555 and 0x2aa, except the latter has its low bit set.
Most chips don't care about the value of the 'A-1' pin in x8 mode,
but some -- like the ST M29W320D -- do. So we need to be careful to
set it where appropriate.
cfi_send_gen_cmd is only ever passed addresses where the low byte
is 0x00, 0x55 or 0xaa. Of those, only addresses ending 0xaa are
affected by this patch, by masking in the extra low bit when the device
is known to be in compatibility mode.
[dwmw2: Do it only when (cmd_ofs & 0xff) == 0xaa]
v4: Fix stupid typo in cfi_build_cmd_addr that failed to compile
I'm writing this patch way to late at night.
v3: Bring all of the work back into cfi_build_cmd_addr
including calling of map_bankwidth(map) and cfi_interleave(cfi)
So every caller doesn't need to.
v2: Only modified the address if we our device_type is larger than our
bus width.

commit f8d570a4745835f2238a33b537218a1bb03fc671 and
3b53fbf4314594fa04544b02b2fc6e607912da18 upstream (because once wasn't
good enough...)
__scm_destroy() walks the list of file descriptors in the scm_fp_list
pointed to by the scm_cookie argument.
Those, in turn, can close sockets and invoke __scm_destroy() again.
There is nothing which limits how deeply this can occur.
The idea for how to fix this is from Linus. Basically, we do all of
the fput()s at the top level by collecting all of the scm_fp_list
objects hit by an fput(). Inside of the initial __scm_destroy() we
keep running the list until it is empty.

[ Upstream commit 930cc144a043ff95e56b6888fa51c618b33f89e7 ]
I'm trying to move the powerpc math-emu code to use the include/math-emu bits.
In doing so I've been using TestFloat to see how good or bad we are
doing. For the most part the current math-emu code that PPC uses has
a number of issues that the code in include/math-emu seems to solve
(plus bugs we've had for ever that no one every realized).
Anyways, I've come across a case that we are flagging underflow and
inexact because we think we have a denormalized result from a double
precision divide:
000.FFFFFFFFFFFFF / 3FE.FFFFFFFFFFFFE
soft: 001.0000000000000 ..... syst: 001.0000000000000 ...ux
What it looks like is the results out of FP_DIV_D are:
D:
sign: 0
mantissa: 01000000 00000000
exp: -1023 (0)
The problem seems like we aren't normalizing the result and bumping the exp.
Now that I'm digging into this a bit I'm thinking my issue has to do with
the fix DaveM put in place from back in Aug 2007 (commit
405849610fd96b4f34cd1875c4c033228fea6c0f):
[MATH-EMU]: Fix underflow exception reporting.
2) we ended up rounding back up to normal (this is the case where
we set the exponent to 1 and set the fraction to zero), this
should set inexact too
...
Another example, "0x0.0000000000001p-1022 / 16.0", should signal both
inexact and underflow. The cpu implementations and ieee1754
literature is very clear about this. This is case #2 above.
Here is the distilled glibc test case from Jakub Jelinek which prompted that
commit:
--------------------
#include <float.h>
#include <fenv.h>
#include <stdio.h>
volatile double d = DBL_MIN;
volatile double e = 0x0.0000000000001p-1022;
volatile double f = 16.0;
int
main (void)
{
printf ("%x\n", fetestexcept (FE_UNDERFLOW));
d /= f;
printf ("%x\n", fetestexcept (FE_UNDERFLOW));
e /= f;
printf ("%x\n", fetestexcept (FE_UNDERFLOW));
return 0;
}
--------------------
It looks like the case I have we are exact before rounding, but think it
looks like the rounding case since it appears as if "overflow is set".
000.FFFFFFFFFFFFF / 3FE.FFFFFFFFFFFFE = 001.0000000000000
I think the following adds the check for my case and still works for the
issue your commit was trying to resolve.

tiny-shmem fix lock ordering: mmap_sem vs i_mutex") to fix the lock
ordering in tiny-shmem breaks shared anonymous and IPC memory on NOMMU
architectures because it was using the expanding truncate to signal ramfs
to allocate a physically contiguous RAM backing the inode (otherwise it is
unusable for "memory mapping" it to userspace).
However do_truncate is what caused the lock ordering error, due to it
taking i_mutex. In this case, we can actually just call ramfs directly to
allocate memory for the mapping, rather than go via truncate.

prevent the migration of such timers and warn when such a timer is

When we use > 4KB's page size the original definition is not consistent
with PGDIR_SIZE. For exeample, if we use 16KB page size the PGDIR_SHIFT is
(14-2) + 14 = 26, PGDIR_SIZE is 2^26，so the PTRS_PER_PGD should be:
2^32/2^26 = 2^6
but the original definition of PTRS_PER_PGD is 4096 (PGDIR_ORDER = 0).
So, this definition needs to be consistent with the PGDIR_SIZE.
And the new definition is consistent with the PGD init in pagetable_init().

linux/time.h conflicts with time.h from glibc
It breaks building smbmount from samba. It's regression introduced by
commit 76308da (" smb.h: uses struct timespec but didn't include
linux/time.h").

Impact: System hang when AMD C1E machines switch into C2/C3
AMD C1E enabled systems do not work with normal ACPI C-states
even if the BIOS is advertising them. Limit the C-states to
C1 for the ACPI processor idle code.

Impact: hang which happens across CPU offline/online on AMD C1E systems.
When a CPU goes offline then the corresponding bit in the broadcast
mask is cleared. For AMD C1E enabled CPUs we do not reenable the
broadcast when the CPU comes online again as we do not clear the
corresponding bit in the c1e_mask, which keeps track which CPUs
have been switched to broadcast already. So on those !$@#& machines
we never switch back to broadcasting after a CPU offline/online cycle.
Clear the bit when the CPU plays dead.

this patch turns the netdev timeout WARN_ON_ONCE() into a WARN_ONCE(),
so that the device and driver names are inside the warning message.
This helps automated tools like kerneloops.org to collect the data

Patch : http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/22/364
with what I believe is a better fix than the one referenced
in the regression entry above.
These PNP header interfaces try to work in such a way that
you can reference some of them even if PNP is not enabled,
and the compiler was expected to optimize everything away.
Which is mostly fine, except that there was one interface
for which there was not provided an inline "NOP" implementation.
Once we add that, all of these compile failures cannot handle
any more.

- 8-bit interface mode never worked properly. The only adapter I have
which supports the 8b mode (the Jmicron) had some problems with its
clock wiring and they discovered it only now. We also discovered that
ProHG media is more sensitive to the ordering of initialization
commands.
- Make the driver fall back to highest supported mode instead of always
falling back to serial. The driver will attempt the switch to 8b mode
for any new MSPro card, but not all of them support it. Previously,
these new cards ended up in serial mode, which is not the best idea
(they work fine with 4b, after all).

The iterator for_each_zone_zonelist() uses a struct zoneref *z cursor when
scanning zonelists to keep track of where in the zonelist it is. The
zoneref that is returned corresponds to the the next zone that is to be
scanned, not the current one. It was intended to be treated as an opaque
list.
When the page allocator is scanning a zonelist, it marks elements in the
zonelist corresponding to zones that are temporarily full. As the
zonelist is being updated, it uses the cursor here;
if (NUMA_BUILD)
zlc_mark_zone_full(zonelist, z);
This is intended to prevent rescanning in the near future but the zoneref
cursor does not correspond to the zone that has been found to be full.
This is an easy misunderstanding to make so this patch corrects the
problem by changing zoneref cursor to be the current zone being scanned
instead of the next one.

I recently bought 3 HGST P7K500-series 500GB SATA drives and
had trouble accessing the block right on the LBA28-LBA48 border.
Here's how it fails (same for all 3 drives):
# dd if=/dev/sdc bs=512 count=1 skip=268435455 > /dev/null
dd: reading `/dev/sdc': Input/output error

ata1.00: status: { DRDY ERR }
ata1.00: error: { ABRT }
ata1.00: configured for UDMA/33
ata1: EH complete
...
After some investigations, it turned out this seems to be caused
by misinterpretation of the ATA specification on LBA28 access.
Following part is the code in question:
=== include/linux/ata.h ===
static inline int lba_28_ok(u64 block, u32 n_block)
{
/* check the ending block number */
return ((block + n_block - 1) < ((u64)1 << 28)) && (n_block <= 256);
}
HGST drive (sometimes) fails with LBA28 access of {block = 0xfffffff,
n_block = 1}, and this behavior seems to be comformant. Other drives,
including other HGST drives are not that strict, through.
>From the ATA specification:
(http://www.t13.org/Documents/UploadedDocuments/project/d1410r3b-ATA-ATAPI-6.pdf)
8.15.29 Word (61:60): Total number of user addressable sectors
This field contains a value that is one greater than the total number
of user addressable sectors (see 6.2). The maximum value that shall
be placed in this field is 0FFFFFFFh.
So the driver shouldn't use the value of 0xfffffff for LBA28 request
as this exceeds maximum user addressable sector. The logical maximum
value for LBA28 is 0xffffffe.
The obvious fix is to cut "- 1" part, and the patch attached just do
that. I've been using the patched kernel for about a month now, and
the same fix is also floating on the net for some time. So I believe
this fix works reliably.
Just FYI, many Windows/Intel platform users also seems to be struck
by this, and HGST has issued a note pointing to Intel ICH8/9 driver.
"28-bit LBA command is being used to access LBAs 29-bits in length"

Also, *BSDs seems to have similar fix included sometime around ~2004,
through I have not checked out exact portion of the code.

This is the line in nla_ok():
/**
* nla_ok - check if the netlink attribute fits into the remaining bytes
* @nla: netlink attribute
* @remaining: number of bytes remaining in attribute stream
*/
static inline int nla_ok(const struct nlattr *nla, int remaining)
{
return remaining >= sizeof(*nla) &&
nla->nla_len >= sizeof(*nla) &&
nla->nla_len <= remaining;
}
It turns out that remaining can become negative due to alignment in
nla_next(). But GCC promotes "remaining" to unsigned in the test
against sizeof(*nla) above. Therefore the test succeeds, and the
nla_for_each_attr() may access memory outside the received buffer.
A short example illustrating this point is here:
#include <stdio.h>
main(void)
{
printf("%d\n", -1 >= sizeof(int));
}
...which prints "1".
This patch adds a cast in front of the sizeof so that GCC will make
a signed comparison and fix the illegal memory dereference. With the
patch applied, there is no kmemcheck report.
