x86/mm: account for PGDIR_SIZE alignment
Patch for -stable. Function find_early_table_space removed upstream.
Fixes panic in alloc_low_page due to pgt_buf overflow during
init_memory_mapping.
find_early_table_space sizes pgt_buf based upon the size of the
memory being mapped, but it does not take into account the alignment
of the memory. When the region being mapped spans a 512GB (PGDIR_SIZE)
alignment, a panic from alloc_low_pages occurs.
kernel_physical_mapping_init takes into account PGDIR_SIZE alignment.
This causes an extra call to alloc_low_page to be made. This extra call
isn't accounted for by find_early_table_space and causes a kernel panic.
Change is to take into account PGDIR_SIZE alignment in find_early_table_space.

ftrace_dump() had a lot of issues. What ftrace_dump() does, is when
ftrace_dump_on_oops is set (via a kernel parameter or sysctl), it
will dump out the ftrace buffers to the console when either a oops,
panic, or a sysrq-z occurs.
This was written a long time ago when ftrace was fragile to recursion.
But it wasn't written well even for that.
There's a possible deadlock that can occur if a ftrace_dump() is happening
and an NMI triggers another dump. This is because it grabs a lock
before checking if the dump ran.
It also totally disables ftrace, and tracing for no good reasons.
As the ring_buffer now checks if it is read via a oops or NMI, where
there's a chance that the buffer gets corrupted, it will disable
itself. No need to have ftrace_dump() do the same.
ftrace_dump() is now cleaned up where it uses an atomic counter to
make sure only one dump happens at a time. A simple atomic_inc_return()
is enough that is needed for both other CPUs and NMIs. No need for
a spinlock, as if one CPU is running the dump, no other CPU needs
to do it too.
The tracing_on variable is turned off and not turned on. The original
code did this, but it wasn't pretty. By just disabling this variable
we get the result of not seeing traces that happen between crashes.
For sysrq-z, it doesn't get turned on, but the user can always write
a '1' to the tracing_on file. If they are using sysrq-z, then they should
know about tracing_on.
The new code is much easier to read and less error prone. No more
deadlock possibility when an NMI triggers here.

The Linux driver code to deal with that is an insane hack which also

When checking if an autofs mount point is busy it isn't sufficient to
only check if it's a mount point.
For example, if the mount of an offset mountpoint in a tree is denied
for this host by its export and the dentry becomes a process working
directory the check incorrectly returns the mount as not in use at
expire.
This can happen since the default when mounting within a tree is
nostrict, which means ingnore mount fails on mounts within the tree and

Device tree node /rtas/ibm,associativity-reference-points would
index into /cpus/PowerPCxxxx/ibm,associativity based on form0 or
form1 encoding detected by ibm,architecture-vec-5 property.
All modern systems use form1 and current kernel code is correct.
However, on older systems with form0 encoding, the numa distance
will get hard coded as LOCAL_DISTANCE for all nodes. This causes
task scheduling anomaly since scheduler will skip building numa
level domain (topmost domain with all cpus) if all numa distances
are same. (value of 'level' in sched_init_numa() will remain 0)

privileged one.

The driver is doing, by default, multi-block reads. When a block error
occurs, card/block.c instigates a single block read: "mmcblk0: retrying

the length attribute for the first sg entry and the overall sg_len
parameter. When atmci_read_data_pio is called to read the single block
of data it ignores the sg_len and expects to read more than 512 bytes as
it sees there are multiple items in the sg list. No more data comes as

Previously, the ixgbe_msix_other was writing the full 32bits of the set
interrupts, instead of only the ones which the ixgbe_msix_other is
handling. This resulted in a loss of performance when the X540's PPS feature is
enabled due to sometimes clearing queue interrupts which resulted in the driver
not getting the interrupt for cleaning the q_vector rings often enough. The fix
is to simply mask the lower 16bits off so that this handler does not write them
in the EICR, which causes them to remain high and be properly handled by the
clean_rings interrupt routine as normal.

When a full scan 2.4 and 5 GHz scan is scheduled, but then the 2.4 GHz
part of the scan disables a 5.2 GHz channel due to, e.g. receiving
country or frequency information, that 5.2 GHz channel might already
be in the list of channels to scan next. Then, when the driver checks
if it should do a passive scan, that will return false and attempt an
active scan. This is not only wrong but can also lead to the iwlwifi
device firmware crashing since it checks regulatory as well.
Fix this by not setting the channel flags to just disabled but rather
OR'ing in the disabled flag. That way, even if the race happens, the
channel will be scanned passively which is still (mostly) correct.

Maintenance of a bad-block-list currently defaults to 'enabled'
and is then disabled when it cannot be supported.
This is backwards and causes problem for dm-raid which didn't know
to disable it.
So fix the defaults, and only enabled for v1.x metadata which
explicitly has bad blocks enabled.
The problem with dm-raid has been present since badblock support was
added in v3.1, so this patch is suitable for any -stable from 3.1
onwards.
After a server reboot, the reclaimer thread will recover all the existing
locks. For locks that are blocked, however, it will change the value
of block->b_status to nlm_lck_denied_grace_period in order to signal that
they need to wake up and resend the original blocking lock request.
Due to a bug, however, the block->b_status never gets reset after the
blocked locks have been woken up, and so the process goes into an
infinite loop of resends until the blocked lock is satisfied.
select_parent() populates the dispose list with dentries which
shrink_dentry_list() then deletes. select_parent() carefully uses
need_resched() to avoid doing too much work at once. But neither
shrink_dcache_parent() nor its called functions call cond_resched(). So
once need_resched() is set select_parent() will return single dentry
dispose list which is then deleted by shrink_dentry_list(). This is
inefficient when there are a lot of dentry to process. This can cause
softlockup and hurts interactivity on non preemptable kernels.
This change adds cond_resched() in shrink_dcache_parent(). The benefit
of this is that need_resched() is quickly cleared so that future calls
to select_parent() are able to efficiently return a big batch of dentry.
These additional cond_resched() do not seem to impact performance, at
least for the workload below.
Here is a program which can cause soft lockup if other system activity
sets need_resched().
int main()
{
struct rlimit rlim;
int i;
int f[100000];
char buf[20];

Vitaliy reported that a per cpu HPET timer interrupt crashes the
system during hibernation. What happens is that the per cpu HPET timer
gets shut down when the nonboot cpus are stopped. When the nonboot
cpus are onlined again the HPET code sets up the MSI interrupt which
fires before the clock event device is registered. The event handler
is still set to hrtimer_interrupt, which then crashes the machine due
to highres mode not being active.
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=700333
There is no real good way to avoid that in the HPET code. The HPET
code alrady has a mechanism to detect spurious interrupts when event
handler == NULL for a similar reason.
We can handle that in the clockevent/tick layer and replace the
previous functional handler with a dummy handler like we do in
tick_setup_new_device().
The original clockevents code did this in clockevents_exchange_device(),
but that got removed by commit 7c1e76897 (clockevents: prevent
clockevent event_handler ending up handler_noop) which forgot to fix
it up in tick_shutdown(). Same issue with the broadcast device.

When we change the system time to a low value like this, the value of
timekeeper->offs_real will be a negative value.
It seems that the WARN occurs because an hrtimer has been started in the time
between the releasing of the timekeeper lock and the IPI call (via a call to
on_each_cpu) in clock_was_set() in the do_settimeofday() code. The end result
is that a REALTIME_CLOCK timer has been added with softexpires = expires =
KTIME_MAX. The hrtimer_interrupt() fires/is called and the loop at
kernel/hrtimer.c:1289 is executed. In this loop the code subtracts the
clock base's offset (which was set to timekeeper->offs_real in
do_settimeofday()) from the current hrtimer_cpu_base->expiry value (which
was KTIME_MAX):
KTIME_MAX - (a negative value) = overflow
A simple check for an overflow can resolve this problem. Using KTIME_MAX
instead of the overflow value will result in the hrtimer function being run,
and the reprogramming of the timer after that.

One can trigger an overflow when using ktime_add_ns() on a 32bit
architecture not supporting CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR.
When passing a very high value for u64 nsec, e.g. 7881299347898368000
the do_div() function converts this value to seconds (7881299347) which
is still to high to pass to the ktime_set() function as long. The result
in is a negative value.
The problem on my system occurs in the tick-sched.c,
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() when time_delta is set to
timekeeping_max_deferment(). The check for time_delta < KTIME_MAX is
valid, thus ktime_add_ns() is called with a too large value resulting in
a negative expire value. This leads to an endless loop in the ticker code:
time_delta: 7881299347898368000
expires = ktime_add_ns(last_update, time_delta)
expires: negative value
This fix caps the value to KTIME_MAX.
This error doesn't occurs on 64bit or architectures supporting

Commit 88a8516a2128 (ALSA: usbaudio: implement USB autosuspend)
introduced autopm for all USB audio/MIDI devices. However, many MIDI
devices, such as synthesizers, do not merely transmit MIDI messages but
use their MIDI inputs to control other functions. With autopm, these
devices would get powered down as soon as the last MIDI port device is
closed on the host.
Even some plain MIDI interfaces could get broken: they automatically
send Active Sensing messages while powered up, but as soon as these
messages cease, the receiving device would interpret this as an
accidental disconnection.
Commit f5f165418cab (ALSA: usb-audio: Fix missing autopm for MIDI input)
introduced another regression: some devices (e.g. the Roland GAIA SH-01)
are self-powered but do a reset whenever the USB interface's power state
changes.
To work around all this, just disable autopm for all USB MIDI devices.
The USB_DT_CS_ENDPOINT class-specific endpoint descriptor is usually
stuffed directly after the standard USB endpoint descriptor, and this is
where the driver currently expects it to be.
There are, however, devices in the wild that have it the other way
around in their descriptor sets, so the USB_DT_CS_ENDPOINT comes
*before* the standard enpoint. Devices known to implement it that way
are "Sennheiser BTD-500" and Plantronics USB headsets.
When the driver can't find the USB_DT_CS_ENDPOINT, it won't be able to
change sample rates, as the bitmask for the validity of this command is
storen in bmAttributes of that descriptor.
Fix this by searching the entire interface instead of just the extra
bytes of the first endpoint, in case the latter fails.

There is a kernel memory leak observed when the proc file
/proc/fs/fscache/stats is read.
The reason is that in fscache_stats_open, single_open is called and the
respective release function is not called during release. Hence fix
with correct release function - single_release().
The list of output registers is
: "=r"(ret) : "r"(iha), "r"(pte):"memory");
The constraint "=r" means that the GCC has to maintain that these vars
are in registers and contain valid info when the program flow leaves
the assembly block (output registers).
But "=r" also means that GCC can put them in registers that are used
as input registers. Input registers are iha, pte on the example.
If the predicate p7 is true, the 8th assembly instruction
"(p7) mov %0=r0;"
is the first one which writes to a register which is maintained by the
register constraints; it sets %0. %0 means the first register operand;
it is ret here.
This instruction might overwrite the %2 register (pte) which is needed
by the next instruction:
"(p7) st8 [%2]=r9;;"
Whether it really happens depends on how GCC decides what registers it
uses and how it optimizes the code.
The attached patch fixes the register operand constraints in
arch/ia64/kvm/vtlb.c.
The register constraints should be
: "=&r"(ret) : "r"(iha), "r"(pte):"memory");
The & means that GCC must not use any of the input registers to place
this output register in.

the assembly block (output registers).
But "=r" also means that GCC can put them in registers that are used
as input registers. Input registers are uaddr, newval, oldval on the
example.
The second assembly instruction
" mov %0=r0 \n"
is the first one which writes to a register; it sets %0 to 0. %0 means
the first register operand; it is r8 here. (The r0 is read-only and
always 0 on the Itanium; it can be used if an immediate zero value is
needed.)
This instruction might overwrite one of the other registers which are
still needed.
Whether it really happens depends on how GCC decides what registers it
uses and how it optimizes the code.
The objdump utility can give us disassembly.
The futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() function is inline, so we have to
look for a module that uses the funtion. This is the
cmpxchg_futex_value_locked() function in
kernel/futex.c:
static int cmpxchg_futex_value_locked(u32 *curval, u32 __user *uaddr,
u32 uval, u32 newval)
{
int ret;
pagefault_disable();
ret = futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(curval, uaddr, uval, newval);
pagefault_enable();
return ret;
}
Now the disassembly. At first from the Kernel package 3.2.23 which has
been compiled with GCC 4.4, remeber this Kernel seemed to work:
objdump -d linux-3.2.23/debian/build/build_ia64_none_mckinley/kernel/futex.o
The lines
2b0: 0a 00 00 00 22 00 [MMI] mf;;
2b6: 80 00 00 00 42 00 mov r8=r0
2bc: 00 00 04 00 nop.i 0x0
2c0: 0b 00 20 40 2a 04 [MMI] mov.m ar.ccv=r8;;
2c6: 10 1a 85 22 20 00 cmpxchg4.acq r33=[r33],r35,ar.ccv
2cc: 00 00 04 00 nop.i 0x0;;
are the instructions of the assembly block.
The line
2b6: 80 00 00 00 42 00 mov r8=r0
sets the r8 register to 0 and after that
2c0: 0b 00 20 40 2a 04 [MMI] mov.m ar.ccv=r8;;
prepares the 'oldvalue' for the cmpxchg but it takes it from r8. This
is wrong.
What happened here is what I explained above: An input register is
overwritten which is still needed.
The register operand constraints in futex.h are wrong.
(The problem doesn't occur when the Kernel is compiled with GCC 4.6.)
The attached patch fixes the register operand constraints in futex.h.
The code after patching of it:
static inline int
futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic(u32 *uval, u32 __user *uaddr,
u32 oldval, u32 newval)
{
if (!access_ok(VERIFY_WRITE, uaddr, sizeof(u32)))
return -EFAULT;
I also initialized the 'r8' var with the C programming language.
The _asm qualifier on the definition of the 'r8' var forces GCC to use
the r8 processor register for it.
I don't believe that we should use inline assembly for zeroing out a
local variable.
The constraint is
"+r" (r8)
what means that it is both an input register and an output register.
Note that the page fault handler will modify the r8 register which
will be the return value of the function.
The real fix is
"=&r" (prev)
The & means that GCC must not use any of the input registers to place
this output register in.
Patched the Kernel 3.2.23 and compiled it with GCC4.4:
Much better.
There is a
270: 05 40 00 00 00 e1 [MLX] mov r8=r0
which was generated by C code r8 = 0. Below
2b6: 00 10 81 54 08 00 mov.m ar.ccv=r34
what means that oldval is no longer overwritten.
This is Debian bug#702641
(http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=702641).
The patch is applicable on Kernel 3.9-rc1, 3.2.23 and many other versions.

Commit b51306c (PCI: Set device power state to PCI_D0 for device
without native PM support) modified pci_platform_power_transition()
by adding code causing dev->current_state for devices that don't
support native PCI PM but are power-manageable by the platform to be
changed to PCI_D0 regardless of the value returned by the preceding
platform_pci_set_power_state(). In particular, that also is done
if the platform_pci_set_power_state() has been successful, which
causes the correct power state of the device set by
pci_update_current_state() in that case to be overwritten by PCI_D0.
Fix that mistake by making the fallback to PCI_D0 only happen if
the platform_pci_set_power_state() has returned an error.

Found problem on system that firmware that could handle pci aer.
Firmware get error reporting after pci injecting error, before os boots.
But after os boots, firmware can not get report anymore, even pci=noaer
is passed.
Root cause: BIOS _OSC has problem with query bit checking.
It turns out that BIOS vendor is copying example code from ACPI Spec.
In ACPI Spec 5.0, page 290:
If (Not(And(CDW1,1))) // Query flag clear?
{ // Disable GPEs for features granted native control.
If (And(CTRL,0x01)) // Hot plug control granted?
{
Store(0,HPCE) // clear the hot plug SCI enable bit
Store(1,HPCS) // clear the hot plug SCI status bit
}
...
}
When Query flag is set, And(CDW1,1) will be 1, Not(1) will return 0xfffffffe.
So it will get into code path that should be for control set only.
BIOS acpi code should be changed to "If (LEqual(And(CDW1,1), 0)))"
Current kernel code is using _OSC query to notify firmware about support
from OS and then use _OSC to set control bits.
During query support, current code is using all possible controls.
So will execute code that should be only for control set stage.
That will have problem when pci=noaer or aer firmware_first is used.
As firmware have that control set for os aer already in query support stage,
but later will not os aer handling.
We should avoid passing all possible controls, just use osc_control_set
instead.
That should workaround BIOS bugs with affected systems on the field
as more bios vendors are copying sample code from ACPI spec.

But this was hideously wrong. First of all these initializations
are now down far too late. Specifically after all the other cpus
have been brought up and initialized their own CMC vectors from
smp_callin(). Also ia64_mca_late_init() may be called from any cpu
so the line:
ia64_mca_cmc_vector_setup(); /* Setup vector on BSP */
is generally not executed on the BSP, and so the CMC vector isn't
setup at all on that processor.
Make use of the arch_early_irq_init() hook to get this code executed
at just the right moment: not too early, not too late.

The TX_FIFO register is 10 bits wide. The lower 8 bits are the data to be
written, while the upper two bits are flags to indicate stop/start.
The driver apparently attempted to optimize write access, by only writing a
byte in those cases where the stop/start bits are zero. However, we have
seen cases where the lower byte is duplicated onto the upper byte by the
hardware, which causes inadvertent stop/starts.
This patch changes the write access to the transmit FIFO to always be 16 bits
wide.

Currently, the depth reported in the stack tracer stack_trace file
does not match the stack_max_size file. This is because the stack_max_size
includes the overhead of stack tracer itself while the depth does not.
The first time a max is triggered, a calculation is not performed that
figures out the overhead of the stack tracer and subtracts it from
the stack_max_size variable. The overhead is stored and is subtracted
from the reported stack size for comparing for a new max.
Now the stack_max_size corresponds to the reported depth:
While testing against and older gcc on x86 that uses mcount instead
of fentry, I found that pasing in ip + MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE let the
stack trace show one more function deep which was missing before.
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
When gcc 4.6 on x86 is used, the function tracer will use the new
option -mfentry which does a call to "fentry" at every function
instead of "mcount". The significance of this is that fentry is
called as the first operation of the function instead of the mcount
usage of being called after the stack.
This causes the stack tracer to show some bogus results for the size
of the last function traced, as well as showing "ftrace_call" instead
of the function. This is due to the stack frame not being set up
by the function that is about to be traced.
The 216 size for ftrace_call includes both the ftrace_call stack
(which includes the saving of registers it does), as well as the
stack size of the parent.
To fix this, if CC_USING_FENTRY is defined, then the stack_tracer
will reserve the first item in stack_dump_trace[] array when
calling save_stack_trace(), and it will fill it in with the parent ip.
Then the code will look for the parent pointer on the stack and
give the real size of the parent's stack pointer:
I'm Cc'ing stable, although it's not urgent, as it only shows bogus
size for item #0, the rest of the trace is legit. It should still be

We first tried to avoid updating atime/mtime entirely (commit b0de59b5733d: "TTY: do not update atime/mtime on read/write"), and then
limited it to only update it occasionally (commit 37b7f3c76595: "TTY:
fix atime/mtime regression"), but it turns out that this was both
insufficient and overkill.
It was insufficient because we let people attach to the shared ptmx node
to see activity without even reading atime/mtime, and it was overkill
because the "only once a minute" means that you can't really tell an
idle person from an active one with 'w'.
So this tries to fix the problem properly. It marks the shared ptmx
node as un-notifiable, and it lowers the "only once a minute" to a few
seconds instead - still long enough that you can't time individual
keystrokes, but short enough that you can tell whether somebody is
active or not.

ARM processors with LPAE enabled use 3 levels of page tables, with an
entry in the top level (pgd) covering 1GB of virtual space. Because of
the branch relocation limitations on ARM, the loadable modules are
mapped 16MB below PAGE_OFFSET, making the corresponding 1GB pgd shared
between kernel modules and user space.
If free_pgtables() is called with the default ceiling 0,
free_pgd_range() (and subsequently called functions) also frees the page
table shared between user space and kernel modules (which is normally
handled by the ARM-specific pgd_free() function). This patch changes
defines the ARM USER_PGTABLES_CEILING to TASK_SIZE when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE
is enabled.
Note that the pgd_free() function already checks the presence of the
shared pmd page allocated by pgd_alloc() and frees it, though with
ceiling 0 this wasn't necessary.

Unfortunatly the later is not a good idea as the bootup path

In case a machine supports memory hotplug all active memory increments
present at IPL time have been initialized with a "usecount" of 1.
This is wrong if the memory increment size is larger than the memory
section size of the memory hotplug code. If that is the case the
usecount must be initialized with the number of memory sections that
fit into one memory increment.
Otherwise it is possible to put a memory increment into standby state
even if there are still active sections.
Afterwards addressing exceptions might happen which cause the kernel
to panic.
However even worse, if a memory increment was put into standby state
and afterwards into active state again, it's contents would have been
zeroed, leading to memory corruption.
This was only an issue for machines that support standby memory and
have at least 256GB memory.
This is broken since commit fdb1bb15 "[S390] sclp/memory hotplug: fix
initial usecount of increments".
Many cards based on CY7C68300A/B/C use the USB ID 04b4:6830 but only the

locks up if ATACB is attempted, until a typical 30 seconds timeout runs
out and a USB reset is performed.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/428469
It seems that one way to spot a CY7C68300A (at least where the card
manufacturer left Cypress' EEPROM default vaules, against Cypress'
recommendations) is to look at the USB string descriptor indices.

Note that a CY7C68300B/C chip appears as CY7C68300A if it is running
in Backward Compatibility Mode, and if ATACB would be supported in this
case there is anyway no way to tell which chip it really is.

manufacturers haven't made it easy for us.
When usbfs receives a ctrl-request from userspace it calls check_ctrlrecip,
which for a request with USB_RECIP_ENDPOINT tries to map this to an interface
to see if this interface is claimed, except for ctrl-requests with a type of
USB_TYPE_VENDOR.
When trying to use this device: http://www.akaipro.com/eiepro
redirected to a Windows vm running on qemu on top of Linux.
The windows driver makes a ctrl-req with USB_TYPE_CLASS and
USB_RECIP_ENDPOINT with index 0, and the mapping of the endpoint (0) to
the interface fails since ep 0 is the ctrl endpoint and thus never is
part of an interface.
This patch fixes this ctrl-req failing by skipping the checkintf call for
USB_RECIP_ENDPOINT ctrl-reqs on the ctrl endpoint.

When/if a packet is finally reassembled, we use the dst of the very

There is a bug in cookie_v4_check (net/ipv4/syncookies.c):
flowi4_init_output(&fl4, 0, sk->sk_mark, RT_CONN_FLAGS(sk),
RT_SCOPE_UNIVERSE, IPPROTO_TCP,
inet_sk_flowi_flags(sk),
(opt && opt->srr) ? opt->faddr : ireq->rmt_addr,
ireq->loc_addr, th->source, th->dest);
Here we do not respect sk->sk_bound_dev_if, therefore wrong dst_entry may be
taken. This dst_entry is used by new socket (get_cookie_sock ->
tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock), so its packets may take the wrong path.
