This is the temporary simple fix for 3.2, we need more changes in this
area.
1. do_signal_stop() assumes that the running untraced thread in the
stopped thread group is not possible. This was our goal but it is
not yet achieved: a stopped-but-resumed tracee can clone the running
thread which can initiate another group-stop.
Remove WARN_ON_ONCE(!current->ptrace).
2. A new thread always starts with ->jobctl = 0. If it is auto-attached
and this group is stopped, __ptrace_unlink() sets JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING
but JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK part is zero, this triggers WANR_ON(!signr)
in do_jobctl_trap() if another debugger attaches.
Change __ptrace_unlink() to set the artificial SIGSTOP for report.
Alternatively we could change ptrace_init_task() to copy signr from
current, but this means we can copy it for no reason and hide the
possible similar problems.
do {
ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, 0);
pid = waitpid(-1, NULL, 0);
} while (pid > 0);
return 1;
}
It fails because ->real_parent sees its child in EXIT_DEAD state
while the tracer is going to change the state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE
in wait_task_zombie().
The offending commit is 823b018e which moved the EXIT_DEAD check,
but in fact we should not blame it. The original code was not
correct as well because it didn't take ptrace_reparented() into
account and because we can't really trust ->ptrace.
This patch adds the additional check to close this particular
race but it doesn't solve the whole problem. We simply can't
rely on ->ptrace in this case, it can be cleared if the tracer
is multithreaded by the exiting ->parent.
I think we should kill EXIT_DEAD altogether, we should always
remove the soon-to-be-reaped child from ->children or at least
we should never do the DEAD->ZOMBIE transition. But this is too
complex for 3.2.
It causes failures on Toshiba laptops - instead of disabling the alarm,
it actually seems to enable it on the affected laptops, resulting in
(for example) the laptop powering on automatically five minutes after
shutdown.
There's a patch for it that appears to work for at least some people,
but it's too late to play around with this, so revert for now and try

When checking whether a DATA chunk fits into the estimated rwnd a
full sizeof(struct sk_buff) is added to the needed chunk size. This
quickly exhausts the available rwnd space and leads to packets being
sent which are much below the PMTU limit. This can lead to much worse
performance.
The reason for this behaviour was to avoid putting too much memory
pressure on the receiver. The concept is not completely irational
because a Linux receiver does in fact clone an skb for each DATA chunk
delivered. However, Linux also reserves half the available socket
buffer space for data structures therefore usage of it is already
accounted for.
When proposing to change this the last time it was noted that this
behaviour was introduced to solve a performance issue caused by rwnd
overusage in combination with small DATA chunks.
Trying to reproduce this I found that with the sk_buff overhead removed,
the performance would improve significantly unless socket buffer limits
are increased.
The following numbers have been gathered using a patched iperf
supporting SCTP over a live 1 Gbit ethernet network. The -l option
was used to limit DATA chunk sizes. The numbers listed are based on
the average of 3 test runs each. Default values have been used for
sk_(r|w)mem.
Commit 8ffd3208 voids the previous patches f6778aab and 810c0719 for
limiting the autoclose value. If userspace passes in -1 on 32-bit
platform, the overflow check didn't work and autoclose would be set
to 0xffffffff.
This patch defines a max_autoclose (in seconds) for limiting the value
and exposes it through sysctl, with the following intentions.
1) Avoid overflowing autoclose * HZ.
2) Keep the default autoclose bound consistent across 32- and 64-bit
platforms (INT_MAX / HZ in this patch).
3) Keep the autoclose value consistent between setsockopt() and
getsockopt() calls.

Although we provide a proper way for a debugger to control whether
syscall restart occurs, we run into problems because orig_i0 is not
saved and restored properly.
Luckily we can solve this problem without having to make debuggers
aware of the issue. Across system calls, several registers are
considered volatile and can be safely clobbered.
Therefore we use the pt_regs save area of one of those registers, %g6,
as a place to save and restore orig_i0.
Debuggers transparently will do the right thing because they save and
restore this register already.

It was found (by Sasha) that if you use a futex located in the gate
area we get stuck in an uninterruptible infinite loop, much like the
ZERO_PAGE issue.
While looking at this problem, PeterZ realized you'll get into similar
trouble when hitting any install_special_pages() mapping. And are there
still drivers setting up their own special mmaps without page->mapping,
and without special VM or pte flags to make get_user_pages fail?
In most cases, if page->mapping is NULL, we do not need to retry at all:
Linus points out that even /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches poses no problem,
because it ends up using remove_mapping(), which takes care not to
interfere when the page reference count is raised.
But there is still one case which does need a retry: if memory pressure
called shmem_writepage in between get_user_pages_fast dropping page
table lock and our acquiring page lock, then the page gets switched from
filecache to swapcache (and ->mapping set to NULL) whatever the refcount.
Fault it back in to get the page->mapping needed for key->shared.inode.

Currently, the *_global_[un]lock_online() routines are not at all synchronized
with CPU hotplug. Soft-lockups detected as a consequence of this race was
reported earlier at https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/24/185. (Thanks to Cong Meng
for finding out that the root-cause of this issue is the race condition
between br_write_[un]lock() and CPU hotplug, which results in the lock states
getting messed up).
Fixing this race by just adding {get,put}_online_cpus() at appropriate places
in *_global_[un]lock_online() is not a good option, because, then suddenly
br_write_[un]lock() would become blocking, whereas they have been kept as
non-blocking all this time, and we would want to keep them that way.
So, overall, we want to ensure 3 things:
1. br_write_lock() and br_write_unlock() must remain as non-blocking.
2. The corresponding lock and unlock of the per-cpu spinlocks must not happen
for different sets of CPUs.
3. Either prevent any new CPU online operation in between this lock-unlock, or
ensure that the newly onlined CPU does not proceed with its corresponding
per-cpu spinlock unlocked.
To achieve all this:
(a) We introduce a new spinlock that is taken by the *_global_lock_online()
routine and released by the *_global_unlock_online() routine.
(b) We register a callback for CPU hotplug notifications, and this callback
takes the same spinlock as above.
(c) We maintain a bitmap which is close to the cpu_online_mask, and once it is
initialized in the lock_init() code, all future updates to it are done in
the callback, under the above spinlock.
(d) The above bitmap is used (instead of cpu_online_mask) while locking and
unlocking the per-cpu locks.
The callback takes the spinlock upon the CPU_UP_PREPARE event. So, if the
br_write_lock-unlock sequence is in progress, the callback keeps spinning,
thus preventing the CPU online operation till the lock-unlock sequence is
complete. This takes care of requirement (3).
The bitmap that we maintain remains unmodified throughout the lock-unlock
sequence, since all updates to it are managed by the callback, which takes
the same spinlock as the one taken by the lock code and released only by the
unlock routine. Combining this with (d) above, satisfies requirement (2).
Overall, since we use a spinlock (mentioned in (a)) to prevent CPU hotplug
operations from racing with br_write_lock-unlock, requirement (1) is also
taken care of.
By the way, it is to be noted that a CPU offline operation can actually run
in parallel with our lock-unlock sequence, because our callback doesn't react
to notifications earlier than CPU_DEAD (in order to maintain our bitmap
properly). And this means, since we use our own bitmap (which is stale, on
purpose) during the lock-unlock sequence, we could end up unlocking the
per-cpu lock of an offline CPU (because we had locked it earlier, when the
CPU was online), in order to satisfy requirement (2). But this is harmless,
though it looks a bit awkward.

where the oom score computation was divided into several steps and it's no
longer computed as one expression in unsigned long(rss, swapents, nr_pte
are unsigned long), where the result value assigned to points(int) is in
range(1..1000). So there could be an int overflow while computing
176 points *= 1000;
and points may have negative value. Meaning the oom score for a mem hog task
will be one.
196 if (points <= 0)
197 return 1;
For example:
[ 3366] 0 3366 3539048024303939 5 0 0 oom01
Out of memory: Kill process 3366 (oom01) score 1 or sacrifice child
Here the oom1 process consumes more than 24303939(rss)*4096~=92GB physical
memory, but it's oom score is one.
In this situation the mem hog task is skipped and oom killer kills another and
most probably innocent task with oom score greater than one.
The points variable should be of type long instead of int to prevent the
int overflow.
binary_sysctl() calls sysctl_getname() which allocates from names_cache
slab usin __getname()
The matching function to free the name is __putname(), and not putname()
which should be used only to match getname() allocations.
This is because when auditing is enabled, putname() calls audit_putname
*instead* (not in addition) to __putname(). Then, if a syscall is in
progress, audit_putname does not release the name - instead, it expects
the name to get released when the syscall completes, but that will happen
only if audit_getname() was called previously, i.e. if the name was
allocated with getname() rather than the naked __getname(). So,
__getname() followed by putname() ends up leaking memory.

per_cpu_ptr_to_phys() incorrectly rounds up its result for non-kmalloc
case to the page boundary, which is bogus for any non-page-aligned
address.
This affects the only in-tree user of this function - sysfs handler
for per-cpu 'crash_notes' physical address. The trouble is that the
crash_notes per-cpu variable is not page-aligned:
As you can see, all values are rounded down to a page
boundary. Consequently, this is where kexec sets up the NOTE segments,
and thus where the secondary kernel is looking for them. However, when
the first kernel crashes, it saves the notes to the unaligned
addresses, where they are not found.
Fix it by adding offset_in_page() to the translated page address.

ssb: fix init regression of hostmode PCI core
In ssb_pcicore_fix_sprom_core_index() the sprom on the PCI core is
accessed, but the sprom only exists when the ssb bus is connected over
a PCI bus to the rest of the system and not when the SSB Bus is the
main system bus. SoCs sometimes have a PCI host controller and there
this code will not be executed, but there are some old SoCs with an PCI
controller in client mode around and ssb_pcicore_fix_sprom_core_index()
should not be called on these devices too. The PCI controller on these
devices are unused, but without this fix it results in an Data bus
error when it gets initialized.

struct request_queue is allocated with __GFP_ZERO so its "node" field is
zero before initialization. This causes an oops if node 0 is offline in
the page allocator because its zonelists are not initialized. From Dave
Young's dmesg:
and __alloc_pages_nodemask+0xb5 translates to a NULL pointer on
zonelist->_zonerefs.
The fix is to initialize q->node at the time of allocation so the correct
node is passed to the slab allocator later.
Since blk_init_allocated_queue_node() is no longer needed, merge it with
blk_init_allocated_queue().

Emmanuel noticed that when mac80211 stops the queues
for aggregation that can leave a packet pending. This
packet will be given to the driver after the AMPDU
callback, but as a non-aggregated packet which messes
up the sequence number etc.
I also noticed by looking at the code that if packets
are being processed while we clear the WANT_START bit,
they might see it cleared already and queue up on
tid_tx->pending. If the driver then rejects the new
aggregation session we leak the packet.
Fix both of these issues by changing this code to not
stop the queues at all. Instead, let packets queue up
on the tid_tx->pending queue instead of letting them
get to the driver, and add code to recover properly
in case the driver rejects the session.
(The patch looks large because it has to move two
functions to before their new use.)

zfcp_scsi_slave_destroy erroneously always tried to finish its task
even if the corresponding previous zfcp_scsi_slave_alloc returned
early. This can lead to kernel page faults on accessing uninitialized
fields of struct zfcp_scsi_dev in zfcp_erp_lun_shutdown_wait. Take the
port field of the struct to determine if slave_alloc returned early.
This zfcp bug is exposed by 4e6c82b (in turn fixing f7c9c6b to be
compatible with 21208ae) which can call slave_destroy for a
corresponding previous slave_alloc that did not finish.
This patch is based on James Bottomley's fix suggestion in
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg55449.html.
cfq_cic_link() has race condition. When some processes which shared ioc
issue I/O to same block device simultaneously, cfq_cic_link() returns -EEXIST
sometimes. The race condition might stop I/O by following steps:
step 1: Process A: Issue an I/O to /dev/sda
step 2: Process A: Get an ioc (iocA here) in get_io_context() which does not
linked with a cic for the device
step 3: Process A: Get a new cic for the device (cicA here) in
cfq_alloc_io_context()
step 4: Process B: Issue an I/O to /dev/sda
step 5: Process B: Get iocA in get_io_context() since process A and B share the
same ioc
step 6: Process B: Get a new cic for the device (cicB here) in
cfq_alloc_io_context() since iocA has not been linked with a
cic for the device yet
step 7: Process A: Link cicA to iocA in cfq_cic_link()
step 8: Process A: Dispatch I/O to driver and finish it
step 9: Process B: Try to link cicB to iocA in cfq_cic_link()
But it fails with showing "cfq: cic link failed!" kernel
message, since iocA has already linked with cicA at step 7.
step 10: Process B: Wait for finishig I/O in get_request_wait()
The function does not wake up, when there is no I/O to the
device.
When cfq_cic_link() returns -EEXIST, it means ioc has already linked with cic.
So when cfq_cic_link() return -EEXIST, retry cfq_cic_lookup().
This prevents an in-kernel division by zero which happens when we are
asking for i915_chipset_val too quickly, or within a race condition
between the power monitoring thread and userspace accesses via debugfs.
The issue can be reproduced easily via the following command:
while ``; do cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_emon_status; done
This is particularly dangerous because it can be triggered by
a non-privileged user by just reading the debugfs entry.

The m41t80 driver can read and set the alarm, but it doesn't
seem to have a functional alarm irq.
This causes failures when the generic core sees alarm functions,
but then cannot use them properly for things like UIE mode.
Disabling the alarm functions allows proper error reporting,
and possible fallback to emulated modes. Once someone fixes
the alarm irq functionality, this can be restored.
Same fix as 731abb9cb2 for ipip and sit tunnel.
Commit 1c5cae815d removed an explicit call to dev_alloc_name in
ipip_tunnel_locate and ipip6_tunnel_locate, because register_netdevice
will now create a valid name, however the tunnel keeps a copy of the
name in the private parms structure. Fix this by copying the name back
after register_netdevice has successfully returned.
This shows up if you do a simple tunnel add, followed by a tunnel show:
$ sudo ip tunnel add mode ipip remote 10.2.20.211
$ ip tunnel
tunl0: ip/ip remote any local any ttl inherit nopmtudisc
tunl%d: ip/ip remote 10.2.20.211 local any ttl inherit
$ sudo ip tunnel add mode sit remote 10.2.20.212

Huawei use the product code HUAWEI_PRODUCT_E353 (0x1506) for a
number of different devices, which each can appear with a number
of different descriptor sets. Different types of interfaces
can be identified by looking at the subclass and protocol fields
Subclass 1 protocol 8 is actually the data interface of a CDC
ECM set, with subclass 1 protocol 9 as the control interface.
Neither support serial data communcation, and cannot therefore
be supported by this driver.
Found one system with UEFI/iBFT, kernel does not detect the iBFT during
iscsi_ibft module loading.
Root cause: on x86 (UEFI), we are calling of find_ibft_region() much earlier
- specifically in setup_arch() before ACPI is enabled.
Try to split acpi checking code out and call that later
At that time ACPI iBFT already get permanent mapped with ioremap.
So isa_virt_to_bus() will get wrong phys from right virt address.
We could just skip that phys address printing.
For legacy one, print the found address early.

The test in fuse_file_llseek() "not SEEK_CUR or not SEEK_SET" always evaluates
to true.
This was introduced in 3.1 by commit 06222e49 (fs: handle SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA
properly in all fs's that define their own llseek) and changed the behavior of
SEEK_CUR and SEEK_SET to always retrieve the file attributes. This is a
performance regression.

If there is an unwritten but clean buffer in a page and there is a
dirty buffer after the buffer, then mpage_submit_io does not write the
dirty buffer out. As a result, da_writepages loops forever.
This patch fixes the problem by checking dirty flag.
If the pte mapping in generic_perform_write() is unmapped between
iov_iter_fault_in_readable() and iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic(), the
"copied" parameter to ->end_write can be zero. ext4 couldn't cope with
it with delayed allocations enabled. This skips the i_disksize
enlargement logic if copied is zero and no new data was appeneded to
the inode.

This is 100% reproducible with some autonuma development code tuned in
a very aggressive manner (not normal way even for knumad) which does
"exotic" changes to the ptes. It wouldn't normally trigger but I don't
see why it can't happen normally if the page is added to swap cache in
between the two faults leading to "copied" being zero (which then
hangs in ext4). So it should be fixed. Especially possible with lumpy
reclaim (albeit disabled if compaction is enabled) as that would
ignore the young bits in the ptes.
/proc/mounts was showing the mount option [no]init_inode_table when
the correct mount option that will be accepted by parse_options() is
[no]init_itable.
We need to make sure iocb->private is cleared *before* we put the
io_end structure on i_completed_io_list. Otherwise fsync() could
potentially run on another CPU and free the iocb structure out from
under us.
d312ae878b6a "xen: use maximum reservation to limit amount of usable RAM"
clamped the total amount of RAM to the current maximum reservation. This is
correct for dom0 but is not correct for guest domains. In order to boot a guest
"pre-ballooned" (e.g. with memory=1G but maxmem=2G) in order to allow for
future memory expansion the guest must derive max_pfn from the e820 provided by
the toolstack and not the current maximum reservation (which can reflect only
the current maximum, not the guest lifetime max). The existing algorithm
already behaves this correctly if we do not artificially limit the maximum
number of pages for the guest case.
