commit b0267507dfd0187fb7840a0ec461a510a7f041c5 upstream.
Commit 040a0a37 ("mutex: Add support for wound/wait style locks")
used "!__builtin_constant_p(p == NULL)" but gcc 3.x cannot
handle such expression correctly, leading to boot failure when
built with CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y.
Fix it by explicitly passing a bool which tells whether p != NULL
or not.
[ PeterZ: This is a sad patch, but provided it actually generates
similar code I suppose its the best we can do bar whole
sale deprecating gcc-3. ]

commit 97b9410643475d6557d2517c2aff9fd2221141a9 upstream.
Marc Kleine-Budde pointed out, that commit 77cc982 "clocksource: use
clockevents_config_and_register() where possible" caused a regression
for some of the converted subarchs.
The reason is, that the clockevents core code converts the minimal
hardware tick delta to a nanosecond value for core internal
usage. This conversion is affected by integer math rounding loss, so
the backwards conversion to hardware ticks will likely result in a
value which is less than the configured hardware limitation. The
affected subarchs used their own workaround (SIGH!) which got lost in
the conversion.
The solution for the issue at hand is simple: adding evt->mult - 1 to
the shifted value before the integer divison in the core conversion
function takes care of it. But this only works for the case where for
the scaled math mult/shift pair "mult <= 1 << shift" is true. For the
case where "mult > 1 << shift" we can apply the rounding add only for
the minimum delta value to make sure that the backward conversion is
not less than the given hardware limit. For the upper bound we need to
omit the rounding add, because the backwards conversion is always
larger than the original latch value. That would violate the upper
bound of the hardware device.
Though looking closer at the details of that function reveals another
bogosity: The upper bounds check is broken as well. Checking for a
resulting "clc" value greater than KTIME_MAX after the conversion is
pointless. The conversion does:
u64 clc = (latch << evt->shift) / evt->mult;
So there is no sanity check for (latch << evt->shift) exceeding the
64bit boundary. The latch argument is "unsigned long", so on a 64bit
arch the handed in argument could easily lead to an unnoticed shift
overflow. With the above rounding fix applied the calculation before
the divison is:
u64 clc = (latch << evt->shift) + evt->mult - 1;
So we need to make sure, that neither the shift nor the rounding add
is overflowing the u64 boundary.
[ukl: move assignment to rnd after eventually changing mult, fix build
issue and correct comment with the right math]

commit ea84753c98a7ac6b74e530b64c444a912b3835ca upstream.
Both Anjana and Eunki reported a stall in the while_each_thread loop
in cgroup_attach_task().
It's because, when we attach a single thread to a cgroup, if the cgroup
is exiting or is already in that cgroup, we won't break the loop.
If the task is already in the cgroup, the bug can lead to another thread
being attached to the cgroup unexpectedly:
# echo 5207 > tasks
# cat tasks
5207
# echo 5207 > tasks
# cat tasks
5207
5215
What's worse, if the task to be attached isn't the leader of the thread
group, we might never exit the loop, hence cpu stall. Thanks for Oleg's
analysis.
This bug was introduced by commit 081aa458c38ba576bdd4265fc807fa95b48b9e79
("cgroup: consolidate cgroup_attach_task() and cgroup_attach_proc()")
[ lizf: - fixed the first continue, pointed out by Oleg,
- rewrote changelog. ]

commit ded797547548a5b8e7b92383a41e4c0e6b0ecb7f upstream.
The commit facd8b80c67a3cf64a467c4a2ac5fb31f2e6745b
("irq: Sanitize invoke_softirq") converted irq exit
calls of do_softirq() to __do_softirq() on all architectures,
assuming it was only used there for its irq disablement
properties.
But as a side effect, the softirqs processed in the end
of the hardirq are always called on the inline current
stack that is used by irq_exit() instead of the softirq
stack provided by the archs that override do_softirq().
The result is mostly safe if the architecture runs irq_exit()
on a separate irq stack because then softirqs are processed
on that same stack that is near empty at this stage (assuming
hardirq aren't nesting).
Otherwise irq_exit() runs in the task stack and so does the softirq
too. The interrupted call stack can be randomly deep already and
the softirq can dig through it even further. To add insult to the
injury, this softirq can be interrupted by a new hardirq, maximizing
the chances for a stack overrun as reported in powerpc for example:

Since this is a regression, this patch proposes a minimalistic
and low-risk solution by blindly forcing the hardirq exit processing of
softirqs on the softirq stack. This way we should reduce significantly
the opportunities for task stack overflow dug by softirqs.
Longer term solutions may involve extending the hardirq stack coverage to
irq_exit(), etc...

commit 4c1c7be95c345cf2ad537a0c48e9aeadc7304527 upstream.
If /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern contains only "|", a NULL pointer
dereference happens upon core dump because argv_split("") returns
argv[0] == NULL.
This bug was once fixed by commit 264b83c07a84 ("usermodehelper: check
subprocess_info->path != NULL") but was by error reintroduced by commit
7f57cfa4e2aa ("usermodehelper: kill the sub_info->path[0] check").
This bug seems to exist since 2.6.19 (the version which core dump to
pipe was added). Depending on kernel version and config, some side
effect might happen immediately after this oops (e.g. kernel panic with
2.6.32-358.18.1.el6).

This is only needed for 3.11, as s390 has now been changed to use the
generic IRQ code upstream.
These functions are currently defined only if CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS
is enabled. But they are still needed on s390 which has its own IRQ
management.

commit e2f0b88e84eed9cf9797f0a88c8012ee0b885a6d upstream.
Commit 1b3a5d02ee07 ("reboot: move arch/x86 reboot= handling to generic
kernel") did some cleanup for reboot= command line, but it made the
reboot_default inoperative.
The default value of variable reboot_default should be 1, and if command
line reboot= is not set, system will use the default reboot mode.

commit 8ac1c8d5deba65513b6a82c35e89e73996c8e0d6 upstream.
After commit 829199197a43 ("kernel/audit.c: avoid negative sleep
durations") audit emitters will block forever if userspace daemon cannot
handle backlog.
After the timeout the waiting loop turns into busy loop and runs until
daemon dies or returns back to work. This is a minimal patch for that
bug.

invalid ones
commit 6c9a27f5da9609fca46cb2b183724531b48f71ad upstream.
There is a small race between copy_process() and cgroup_attach_task()
where child->se.parent,cfs_rq points to invalid (old) ones.
parent doing fork() | someone moving the parent to another cgroup
-------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
copy_process()
+ dup_task_struct()
-> parent->se is copied to child->se.
se.parent,cfs_rq of them point to old ones.
cgroup_attach_task()
+ cgroup_task_migrate()
-> parent->cgroup is updated.
+ cpu_cgroup_attach()
+ sched_move_task()
+ task_move_group_fair()
+- set_task_rq()
-> se.parent,cfs_rq of parent
are updated.
+ cgroup_fork()
-> parent->cgroup is copied to child->cgroup. (*1)
+ sched_fork()
+ task_fork_fair()
-> se.parent,cfs_rq of child are accessed
while they point to old ones. (*2)
In the worst case, this bug can lead to "use-after-free" and cause a panic,
because it's new cgroup's refcount that is incremented at (*1),
so the old cgroup(and related data) can be freed before (*2).
In fact, a panic caused by this bug was originally caught in RHEL6.4.

commit 5a8e01f8fa51f5cbce8f37acc050eb2319d12956 upstream.
scale_stime() silently assumes that stime < rtime, otherwise
when stime == rtime and both values are big enough (operations
on them do not fit in 32 bits), the resulting scaling stime can
be bigger than rtime. In consequence utime = rtime - stime
results in negative value.
User space visible symptoms of the bug are overflowed TIME
values on ps/top, for example:
$ ps aux | grep rcu

commit 7bd36014460f793c19e7d6c94dab67b0afcfcb7f upstream.
Gerlando Falauto reported that when HRTICK is enabled, it is
possible to trigger system deadlocks. These were hard to
reproduce, as HRTICK has been broken in the past, but seemed
to be connected to the timekeeping_seq lock.
Since seqlock/seqcount's aren't supported w/ lockdep, I added
some extra spinlock based locking and triggered the following
lockdep output:

The deadlock was introduced by 06c017fdd4dc48451a ("timekeeping:
Hold timekeepering locks in do_adjtimex and hardpps") in 3.10
This patch avoids this deadlock, by moving the call to
schedule_delayed_work() outside of the timekeeper lock
critical section.

commit e79f525e99b04390ca4d2366309545a836c03bf1 upstream.
Commit 8382fcac1b81 ("pidns: Outlaw thread creation after
unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)") nacks CLONE_VM if the forking process unshared
pid_ns, this obviously breaks vfork:
int main(void)
{
assert(unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWPID) == 0);
assert(vfork() >= 0);
_exit(0);
return 0;
}
fails without this patch.
Change this check to use CLONE_SIGHAND instead. This also forbids
CLONE_THREAD automatically, and this is what the comment implies.
We could probably even drop CLONE_SIGHAND and use CLONE_THREAD, but it
would be safer to not do this. The current check denies CLONE_SIGHAND
implicitely and there is no reason to change this.
Eric said "CLONE_SIGHAND is fine. CLONE_THREAD would be even better.
Having shared signal handling between two different pid namespaces is
the case that we are fundamentally guarding against."

The issue is that when the task group leader of an init process exits
before other tasks of the init process when the init process finally
exits it will be a secondary task sleeping in zap_pid_ns_processes and
waiting to wake up when the number of hashed pids drops to two. This
case waits forever as free_pid only sends a wake up when the number of
hashed pids drops to 1.
To correct this the simple strategy of sending a possibly unncessary
wake up when the number of hashed pids drops to 2 is adopted.
Sending one extraneous wake up is relatively harmless, at worst we
waste a little cpu time in the rare case when a pid namespace
appropaches exiting.
We can detect the case when the pid namespace drops to just two pids
hashed race free in free_pid.
Dereferencing pid_ns->child_reaper with the pidmap_lock held is safe
without out the tasklist_lock because it is guaranteed that the
detach_pid will be called on the child_reaper before it is freed and
detach_pid calls __change_pid which calls free_pid which takes the
pidmap_lock. __change_pid only calls free_pid if this is the
last use of the pid. For a thread that is not the thread group leader
the threads pid will only ever have one user because a threads pid
is not allowed to be the pid of a process, of a process group or
a session. For a thread that is a thread group leader all of
the other threads of that process will be reaped before it is allowed
for the thread group leader to be reaped ensuring there will only
be one user of the threads pid as a process pid. Furthermore
because the thread is the init process of a pid namespace all of the
other processes in the pid namespace will have also been already freed
leading to the fact that the pid will not be used as a session pid or
a process group pid for any other running process.

commit 878b5a6efd38030c7a90895dc8346e8fb1e09b4c upstream.
Currently utask->depth is simply the number of allocated/pending
return_instance's in uprobe_task->return_instances list.
handle_trampoline() should decrement this counter every time we
handle/free an instance, but due to typo it does this only if
->chained == T. This means that in the likely case this counter
is never decremented and the probed task can't report more than
MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH events.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) There was a simplification in the ipv6 ndisc packet sending
attempted here, which avoided using memory accounting on the
per-netns ndisc socket for sending NDISC packets. It did fix some
important issues, but it causes regressions so it gets reverted here
too. Specifically, the problem with this change is that the IPV6
output path really depends upon there being a valid skb->sk
attached.
The reason we want to do this change in some form when we figure out
how to do it right, is that if a device goes down the ndisc_sk
socket send queue will fill up and block NDISC packets that we want
to send to other devices too. That's really bad behavior.
Hopefully Thomas can come up with a better version of this change.
2) Fix a severe TCP performance regression by reverting a change made
to dev_pick_tx() quite some time ago. From Eric Dumazet.
3) TIPC returns wrongly signed error codes, fix from Erik Hugne.
4) Fix OOPS when doing IPSEC over ipv4 tunnels due to orphaning the
skb->sk too early. Fix from Li Hongjun.
5) RAW ipv4 sockets can use the wrong routing key during lookup, from
Chris Clark.
6) Similar to #1 revert an older change that tried to use plain
alloc_skb() for SYN/ACK TCP packets, this broke the netfilter owner
mark which needs to see the skb->sk for such frames. From Phil
Oester.
7) BNX2x driver bug fixes from Ariel Elior and Yuval Mintz,
specifically in the handling of virtual functions.
8) IPSEC path error propagations to sockets is not done properly when
we have v4 in v6, and v6 in v4 type rules. Fix from Hannes Frederic
Sowa.
9) Fix missing channel context release in mac80211, from Johannes Berg.
10) Fix network namespace handing wrt. SCM_RIGHTS, from Andy
Lutomirski.
11) Fix usage of bogus NAPI weight in jme, netxen, and ps3_gelic
drivers. From Michal Schmidt.
12) Hopefully a complete and correct fix for the genetlink dump locking
and module reference counting. From Pravin B Shelar.
13) sk_busy_loop() must do a cpu_relax(), from Eliezer Tamir.
14) Fix handling of timestamp offset when restoring a snapshotted TCP
socket. From Andrew Vagin.

Pull cgroup fix from Tejun Heo:
"During the percpu reference counting update which was merged during
v3.11-rc1, the cgroup destruction path was updated so that a cgroup in
the process of dying may linger on the children list, which was
necessary as the cgroup should still be included in child/descendant
iteration while percpu ref is being killed.
Unfortunately, I forgot to update cgroup destruction path accordingly
and cgroup destruction may fail spuriously with -EBUSY due to
lingering dying children even when there's no live child left - e.g.
"rmdir parent/child parent" will usually fail.
This can be easily fixed by iterating through the children list to
verify that there's no live child left. While this is very late in
the release cycle, this bug is very visible to userland and I believe
the fix is relatively safe.
Thanks Hugh for spotting and providing fix for the issue"

cgroup: fix rmdir EBUSY regression in 3.11
|
|
On 3.11-rc we are seeing cgroup directories left behind when they should
have been removed. Here's a trivial reproducer:
cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory
mkdir parent parent/child; rmdir parent/child parent
rmdir: failed to remove `parent': Device or resource busy
It's because cgroup_destroy_locked() (step 1 of destruction) leaves
cgroup on parent's children list, letting cgroup_offline_fn() (step 2 of
destruction) remove it; but step 2 is run by work queue, which may not
yet have removed the children when parent destruction checks the list.
Fix that by checking through a non-empty list of children: if every one
of them has already been marked CGRP_DEAD, then it's safe to proceed:
those children are invisible to userspace, and should not obstruct rmdir.
(I didn't see any reason to keep the cgrp->children checks under the
unrelated css_set_lock, so moved them out.)
tj: Flattened nested ifs a bit and updated comment so that it's
correct on both for-3.11-fixes and for-3.12.

If !PREEMPT, a kworker running work items back to back can hog CPU.
This becomes dangerous when a self-requeueing work item which is
waiting for something to happen races against stop_machine. Such
self-requeueing work item would requeue itself indefinitely hogging
the kworker and CPU it's running on while stop_machine would wait for
that CPU to enter stop_machine while preventing anything else from
happening on all other CPUs. The two would deadlock.
Jamie Liu reports that this deadlock scenario exists around
scsi_requeue_run_queue() and libata port multiplier support, where one
port may exclude command processing from other ports. With the right
timing, scsi_requeue_run_queue() can end up requeueing itself trying
to execute an IO which is asked to be retried while another device has
an exclusive access, which in turn can't make forward progress due to
stop_machine.
Fix it by invoking cond_resched() after executing each work item.

The Microblaze syscall ABI for clone takes the parent tid address in the

incorrectly-used CLONE_BACKWARDS type assigned parent tid to the 3rd
slot.
This commit restores the original ABI so that existing userspace libc

pm_qos_update_request_timeout() updates a qos and then schedules
a delayed work item to bring the qos back down to the default
after the timeout. When the work item runs, pm_qos_work_fn() will
call pm_qos_update_request() and deadlock because it tries to
cancel itself via cancel_delayed_work_sync(). Future callers of
that qos will also hang waiting to cancel the work that is
canceling itself. Let's extract the little bit of code that does
the real work of pm_qos_update_request() and call it from the
work function so that we don't deadlock.
Before ed1ac6e (PM: don't use [delayed_]work_pending()) this didn't
happen because the work function wouldn't try to cancel itself.

This is only theoretical, but after try_to_wake_up(p) was changed
to check p->state under p->pi_lock the code like
__set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
schedule();
can miss a signal. This is the special case of wait-for-condition,
it relies on try_to_wake_up/schedule interaction and thus it does
not need mb() between __set_current_state() and if(signal_pending).
However, this __set_current_state() can move into the critical
section protected by rq->lock, now that try_to_wake_up() takes
another lock we need to ensure that it can't be reordered with
"if (signal_pending(current))" check inside that section.
The patch is actually one-liner, it simply adds smp_wmb() before
spin_lock_irq(rq->lock). This is what try_to_wake_up() already
does by the same reason.
We turn this wmb() into the new helper, smp_mb__before_spinlock(),
for better documentation and to allow the architectures to change
the default implementation.
While at it, kill smp_mb__after_lock(), it has no callers.
Perhaps we can also add smp_mb__before/after_spinunlock() for
prepare_to_wait().

Some of my configs I test with have CONFIG_A11Y_BRAILLE_CONSOLE set.
When I started testing against v3.11-rc4 my console went bonkers. Using
ktest to bisect the issue, it came down to:
commit bbeddf52a "printk: move braille console support into separate
braille.[ch] files"
Looking into the patch I found the problem. It's with the return of
braille_register_console(). As anything other than NULL is considered a
failure.
But for those of us that have CONFIG_A11Y_BRAILLE_CONSOLE set but do not
define a "brl" or "brl=" on the command line, we still may want a
console that those with sight can still use.
Return NULL (success) if "brl" or "brl=" is not on the console line.

This reverts commit fab840fc2d542fabcab903db8e03589a6702ba5f.
This commit even has the test-case to prove that the tracee
can be killed by SIGTRAP if the debugger does not remove the
breakpoints before PTRACE_DETACH.
However, this is exactly what wineserver deliberately does,
set_thread_context() calls PTRACE_ATTACH + PTRACE_DETACH just
for PTRACE_POKEUSER(DR*) in between.
So we should revert this fix and document that PTRACE_DETACH
should keep the breakpoints.

unshare_userns(new_cred) does *new_cred = prepare_creds() before
create_user_ns() which can fail. However, the caller expects that
it doesn't need to take care of new_cred if unshare_userns() fails.
We could change the single caller, sys_unshare(), but I think it
would be more clean to avoid the side effects on failure, so with
this patch unshare_userns() does put_cred() itself and initializes
*new_cred only if create_user_ns() succeeeds.

Fixed two issues with changing the timestamp clock with trace_clock:
- The global buffer was reset on instance clock changes. Change this to pass
the correct per-instance buffer
- ftrace_now() is used to set buf->time_start in tracing_reset_online_cpus().
This was incorrect because ftrace_now() used the global buffer's clock to
return the current time. Change this to use buffer_ftrace_now() which
returns the current time for the correct per-instance buffer.
Also removed tracing_reset_current() because it is not used anywhere

tracing_read_pipe zeros all fields bellow "seq". The declaration contains
a comment about that, but it doesn't help.
The first field is "snapshot", it's true when current open file is
snapshot. Looks obvious, that it should not be zeroed.
The second field is "started". It was converted from cpumask_t to
cpumask_var_t (v2.6.28-4983-g4462344), in other words it was
converted from cpumask to pointer on cpumask.
Currently the reference on "started" memory is lost after the first read
from tracing_read_pipe and a proper object will never be freed.
The "started" is never dereferenced for trace_pipe, because trace_pipe
can't have the TRACE_FILE_ANNOTATE options.

Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
- Revert two cpuidle commits added during the 3.8 development cycle
that turn out to have introduced a significant performance regression
as requested by Jeremy Eder.
- The recent patches that made the freezer less heavy-weight introduced
a regression causing user-space-driven hibernation using the ioctl()
interface to block indefinitely when the hibernate process executes
try_to_freeze(). Fix from Colin Cross addresses this by adding a
process flag to mark the hibernate/suspend process to inform the
freezer that that process should be ignored.
- One of the recent cpufreq reverts uncovered a problem in the core
causing the cpufreq driver module refcount to become negative after a
system suspend-resume cycle. Fix from Rafael J Wysocki.
- The evaluation of the ACPI battery _BIX method has never worked
correctly, because the commit that added support for it forgot to
take the "Revision" field in the return package into account. As a
result, the reading of battery info doesn't work at all on some
systems, which is addressed by a fix from Lan Tianyu.

Uprobes suffer the same problem that kprobes have. There's a race between
writing to the "enable" file and removing the probe. The probe checks for
it being in use and if it is not, goes about deleting the probe and the
event that represents it. But the problem with that is, after it checks
if it is in use it can be enabled, and the deletion of the event (access
to the probe) will fail, as it is in use. But the uprobe will still be
deleted. This is a problem as the event can reference the uprobe that
was deleted.
The fix is to remove the event first, and check to make sure the event
removal succeeds. Then it is safe to remove the probe.
When the event exists, either ftrace or perf can enable the probe and
prevent the event from being removed.

$echo '0' > /sys/bus/workqueue/devices/xxx/numa
$cat /sys/bus/workqueue/devices/xxx/numa
I got 1. It should be 0, the reason is copy_workqueue_attrs() called
in apply_workqueue_attrs() doesn't copy no_numa field.
Fix it by making copy_workqueue_attrs() copy ->no_numa too. This
would also make get_unbound_pool() set a pool's ->no_numa attribute
according to the workqueue attributes used when the pool was created.
While harmelss, as ->no_numa isn't a pool attribute, this is a bit
confusing. Clear it explicitly.

When a probe is being removed, it cleans up the event files that correspond
to the probe. But there is a race between writing to one of these files
and deleting the probe. This is especially true for the "enable" file.

The unregister_trace_probe() must be done first, and if it fails it must
fail the removal of the kprobe.
Several changes have already been made by Oleg Nesterov and Masami Hiramatsu
to allow moving the unregister_probe_event() before the removal of
the probe and exit the function if it fails. This prevents the tp
structure from being used after it is freed.
