The logic for the memory-remove code fails to correctly account the
Total High Memory when a memory block which contains High Memory is
offlined as shown in the example below. The following patch fixes it.
mem_cgroup_css_online calls mem_cgroup_put if memcg_init_kmem fails.
This is not correct because only memcg_propagate_kmem takes an
additional reference while mem_cgroup_sockets_init is allowed to fail as
well (although no current implementation fails) but it doesn't take any
reference. This all suggests that it should be memcg_propagate_kmem
that should clean up after itself so this patch moves mem_cgroup_put
over there.
Unfortunately this is not that easy (as pointed out by Li Zefan) because
memcg_kmem_mark_dead marks the group dead (KMEM_ACCOUNTED_DEAD) if it is
marked active (KMEM_ACCOUNTED_ACTIVE) which is the case even if
memcg_propagate_kmem fails so the additional reference is dropped in
that case in kmem_cgroup_destroy which means that the reference would be
dropped two times.
The easiest way then would be to simply remove mem_cgrroup_put from
mem_cgroup_css_online and rely on kmem_cgroup_destroy doing the right
thing.

The filesystem should not be marked inconsistent if ext4_free_blocks()
is not able to allocate memory. Unfortunately some callers (most
notably ext4_truncate) don't have a way to reflect an error back up to
the VFS. And even if we did, most userspace applications won't deal
with most system calls returning ENOMEM anyway.
The arithmetics adding delalloc blocks to the number of used blocks in
ext4_getattr() can easily overflow on 32-bit archs as we first multiply
number of blocks by blocksize and then divide back by 512. Make the
arithmetics more clever and also use proper type (unsigned long long
instead of unsigned long).

This fixes bugzilla 57491. If we take a snapshot of a fs with a unlink ongoing
and then try to send that root we will run into problems. When comparing with a
parent root we will search the parents and the send roots commit_root, which if
we've just created the snapshot will include the file that needs to be evicted
by the orphan cleanup. So when we find a changed extent we will try and copy
that info into the send stream, but when we lookup the inode we use the normal
root, which no longer has the inode because the orphan cleanup deleted it. The
best solution I have for this is to check our otransid with the generation of
the commit root and if they match just commit the transaction again, that way we
get the changes from the orphan cleanup. With this patch the reproducer I made
for this bugzilla no longer returns ESTALE when trying to do the send. Thanks,

Commit 4f535093cf "PCI: Put pci_dev in device tree as early as possible"
moves device registering from pci_bus_add_devices() to pci_device_add().
That causes problems for virtual functions because device_add(&virtfn->dev)
is called before setting the virtfn->is_virtfn flag, which then causes Xen
to report PCI virtual functions as PCI physical functions.
Fix it by setting virtfn->is_virtfn before calling pci_device_add().
[Jiang Liu]: Move the setting of virtfn->is_virtfn ahead further for better
readability and modify changelog.
Currently, when a disconnect is requested by the user (via NBD_DISCONNECT
ioctl) the return from NBD_DO_IT is undefined (it is usually one of
several error codes). This means that nbd-client does not know if a
manual disconnect was performed or whether a network error occurred.
Because of this, nbd-client's persist mode (which tries to reconnect after
error, but not after manual disconnect) does not always work correctly.
This change fixes this by causing NBD_DO_IT to always return 0 if a user
requests a disconnect. This means that nbd-client can correctly either
persist the connection (if an error occurred) or disconnect (if the user
requested it).

Inlined xattr shared free space of inode block with inlined data or data
extent record, so the size of the later two should be adjusted when
inlined xattr is enabled. See ocfs2_xattr_ibody_init(). But this isn't
done well when reflink. For inode with inlined data, its max inlined
data size is adjusted in ocfs2_duplicate_inline_data(), no problem. But
for inode with data extent record, its record count isn't adjusted. Fix
it, or data extent record and inlined xattr may overwrite each other,
then cause data corruption or xattr failure.
One panic caused by this bug in our test environment is the following:
The role of acpi_bus_update_power() is to update the given ACPI
device object's power.state field to reflect the current physical
state of the device (as inferred from the configuration of power
resources and _PSC, if available). For this purpose it calls
acpi_device_set_power() that should update the power resources'
reference counters and set power.state as appropriate. However,
that doesn't work if the "new" state is D1, D2 or D3hot and the
the current value of power.state means D3cold, because in that
case acpi_device_set_power() will refuse to transition the device
from D3cold to non-D0.
To address this problem, make acpi_bus_update_power() call
acpi_power_transition() directly to update the power resources'
reference counters and only use acpi_device_set_power() to put
the device into D0 if the current physical state of it cannot
be determined.

Commit 02725e7471b8 ('genirq: Use irq_get/put functions'),
inadvertently changed can_request_irq() to return 0 for IRQs that have
no action. This causes pcibios_lookup_irq() to select only IRQs that
already have an action with IRQF_SHARED set, or to fail if there are
none. Change can_request_irq() to return 1 for IRQs that have no
action (if the first two conditions are met).
There are two tool-stack that can instruct the Xen PCI frontend
and backend to change states: 'xm' (Python code with a daemon),
and 'xl' (C library - does not keep state changes).
With the 'xm', the path to disconnect a single PCI device (xm pci-detach
<guest> <BDF>) is:
[xen-pcifront ignores the 2,3 state changes and only acts when
4 (Connected) has been reached]
Note that this is for a _single_ PCI device. If there were two
PCI devices and only one was disconnected 'xm' would show the same
state changes.
The problem is that git commit 3d925320e9e2de162bd138bf97816bda8c3f71be
("xen/pcifront: Use Xen-SWIOTLB when initting if required") introduced
a mechanism to initialize the SWIOTLB when the Xen PCI front moves to
Connected state. It also had some aggressive seatbelt code check that
would warn the user if one tried to change to Connected state without
hitting first the Closing state:
pcifront pci-0: PCI frontend already installed!
However, that code can be relaxed and we can continue on working
even if the frontend is instructed to be the 'Connected' state with
no devices and then gets tickled to be in 'Connected' state again.
In other words, this 4(Connected)->5(Closing)->4(Connected) state
was expected, while 4(Connected)->.... anything but 5(Closing)->4(Connected)
was not. This patch removes that aggressive check and allows
Xen pcifront to work with the 'xl' toolstack (for one or more
PCI devices) and with 'xm' toolstack (for more than two PCI
devices).

Both ext3 and ext4 htree_dirblock_to_tree() is just filling the

done by the latter; bumping it here (on error) is obviously wrong - we
might very well have it nowhere near the block we'd found an error in.
Subtracting the number of the first data block places the superblock
backups one block too early, corrupting the file system. When the block
size is larger than 1K, the first data block is 0, so the subtraction
has no effect and no corruption occurs.

Once we decrement transaction->t_updates, if this is the last handle
holding the transaction from closing, and once we release the
t_handle_lock spinlock, it's possible for the transaction to commit
and be released. In practice with normal kernels, this probably won't
happen, since the commit happens in a separate kernel thread and it's
unlikely this could all happen within the space of a few CPU cycles.
On the other hand, with a real-time kernel, this could potentially
happen, so save the tid found in transaction->t_tid before we release
t_handle_lock. It would require an insane configuration, such as one
where the jbd2 thread was set to a very high real-time priority,
perhaps because a high priority real-time thread is trying to read or
write to a file system. But some people who use real-time kernels
have been known to do insane things, including controlling
laser-wielding industrial robots. :-)
Some of the functions which modify the jbd2 superblock were not
updating the checksum before calling jbd2_write_superblock(). Move
the call to jbd2_superblock_csum_set() to jbd2_write_superblock(), so
that the checksum is calculated consistently.

The futex_keys of process shared futexes are generated from the page
offset, the mapping host and the mapping index of the futex user space
address. This should result in an unique identifier for each futex.
Though this is not true when futexes are located in different subpages
of an hugepage. The reason is, that the mapping index for all those
futexes evaluates to the index of the base page of the hugetlbfs
mapping. So a futex at offset 0 of the hugepage mapping and another
one at offset PAGE_SIZE of the same hugepage mapping have identical
futex_keys. This happens because the futex code blindly uses
page->index.
Steps to reproduce the bug:
1. Map a file from hugetlbfs. Initialize pthread_mutex1 at offset 0
and pthread_mutex2 at offset PAGE_SIZE of the hugetlbfs
mapping.
The mutexes must be initialized as PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED because
PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE mutexes are not affected by this issue as
their keys solely depend on the user space address.
2. Lock mutex1 and mutex2
3. Create thread1 and in the thread function lock mutex1, which
results in thread1 blocking on the locked mutex1.
4. Create thread2 and in the thread function lock mutex2, which
results in thread2 blocking on the locked mutex2.
5. Unlock mutex2. Despite the fact that mutex2 got unlocked, thread2
still blocks on mutex2 because the futex_key points to mutex1.
To solve this issue we need to take the normal page index of the page
which contains the futex into account, if the futex is in an hugetlbfs
mapping. In other words, we calculate the normal page mapping index of
the subpage in the hugetlbfs mapping.
Mappings which are not based on hugetlbfs are not affected and still
use page->index.
Thanks to Mel Gorman who provided a patch for adding proper evaluation
functions to the hugetlbfs code to avoid exposing hugetlbfs specific
details to the futex code.
Disk names may contain arbitrary strings, so they must not be
interpreted as format strings. It seems that only md allows arbitrary
strings to be used for disk names, but this could allow for a local
memory corruption from uid 0 into ring 0.
The test if bitmap access is out of bound could errorneously pass if the
device size is divisible by 16384 sectors and we are asking for one bitmap
after the end.
Check for invalid size in the superblock. Invalid size could cause integer
overflows in the rest of the code.

string being parsed as a format string. Make sure it is only used as a

In line 2908 we can find the copy_to_user function:
2908 if (!ret && copy_to_user(arg, cgc->buffer, blocksize))
The cgc->buffer is never cleaned and initialized before this function.
If ret = 0 with the previous basic block, it's possible to display some
memory bytes in kernel space from userspace.
When we read a block from the disk it normally fills the ->buffer but if
the drive is malfunctioning there is a chance that it would only be

read the firmware revision in the probe function. This leads to the following
Oops:
[ 3356.635912] kernel BUG at net/core/dev.c:5701!
The driver tries to free the netdev, which has already been registered, without
unregistering it.
This patch fixes the problem by unregistering the netdev in the error path.

Commit 30dcf76acc69 "libata: migrate ACPI code over to new bindings"
mistakenly dropped the code to register hotplug notificaion handler
for ATA port/devices, causing regression for people using ATA bay,
as kernel bug #59871 shows.
Fix this by adding back the hotplug notification handler registration
code. Since this code has to be run once and notification needs to
be installed on every ATA port/devices handle no matter if there is
actual device attached, we can't do this in binding time for ATA
device ACPI handle, as the binding only occurs when a SCSI device is
created, i.e. there is device attached. So introduce the
ata_acpi_hotplug_init() function to loop scan all ATA ACPI handles
and if it is available, install the notificaion handler for it during
ATA init time.
With the ATA ACPI handle binding to SCSI device tree, it is possible
now that when the SCSI hotplug work removes the SCSI device, the ACPI
unbind function will find that the corresponding ACPI device has
already been deleted by dock driver, causing a scaring message like:
[ 128.263966] scsi 4:0:0:0: Oops, 'acpi_handle' corrupt
Fix this by waiting for SCSI hotplug task finish in our notificaion
handler, so that the removal of ACPI device done in ACPI unbind
function triggered by the removal of SCSI device is run earlier when
ACPI device is still available.
[The only change I've made is to remove the two NULL params in
register_hotplug_dock_device, which doesn't accept those params
in pre-v3.10 kernels. - aaron.lu]

Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no
mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are
in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'.
This means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while 'ubifs_readdir()' uses
it, and this is a very bad bug: not only 'ubifs_readdir()' can return garbage,
but this may corrupt memory and lead to all kinds of problems like crashes an
security holes.
This patch fixes the problem by using the 'file->f_version' field, which
'->llseek()' always unconditionally sets to zero. We set it to 1 in
'ubifs_readdir()' and whenever we detect that it became 0, we know there was a
seek and it is time to clear the state saved in 'file->private_data'.
I tested this patch by writing a user-space program which runds readdir and
seek in parallell. I could easily crash the kernel without these patches, but
could not crash it with these patches.

Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no
mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are
in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'.
First of all, this means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while
'ubifs_readdir()' uses it. But this particular patch does not fix the problem.
This patch is only a preparation, and the fix will follow next.
In this patch we make 'ubifs_readdir()' stop using 'file->f_pos' directly,
because 'file->f_pos' can be changed by '->llseek()' at any point. This may
lead 'ubifs_readdir()' to returning inconsistent data: directory entry names
may correspond to incorrect file positions.
So here we introduce a local variable 'pos', read 'file->f_pose' once at very
the beginning, and then stick to 'pos'. The result of this is that when
'ubifs_dir_llseek()' changes 'file->f_pos' while we are in the middle of
'ubifs_readdir()', the latter "wins".

A few years back intel published a spec update:
http://www.intel.com/content/dam/doc/specification-update/5520-and-5500-chipset-ioh-specification-update.pdf
For the 5520 and 5500 chipsets which contained an errata (specificially errata
53), which noted that these chipsets can't properly do interrupt remapping, and
as a result the recommend that interrupt remapping be disabled in bios. While
many vendors have a bios update to do exactly that, not all do, and of course
not all users update their bios to a level that corrects the problem. As a
result, occasionally interrupts can arrive at a cpu even after affinity for that
interrupt has be moved, leading to lost or spurrious interrupts (usually
characterized by the message:
kernel: do_IRQ: 7.71 No irq handler for vector (irq -1)
There have been several incidents recently of people seeing this error, and
investigation has shown that they have system for which their BIOS level is such
that this feature was not properly turned off. As such, it would be good to
give them a reminder that their systems are vulnurable to this problem. For
details of those that reported the problem, please see:

fetch_bp_busy_slots() and toggle_bp_slot() use
for_each_online_cpu(), this is obviously wrong wrt cpu_up() or
cpu_down(), we can over/under account the per-cpu numbers.
trinity fuzzer triggered WARN_ONCE("Can't find any breakpoint
slot") in arch_install_hw_breakpoint() but the problem is not
arch-specific.
The problem is, task_bp_pinned(cpu) checks "cpu == iter->cpu"
but this doesn't account the "all cpus" events with iter->cpu <
0.
This means that, say, register_user_hw_breakpoint(tsk) can
happily create the arbitrary number > HBP_NUM of breakpoints
which can not be activated. toggle_bp_task_slot() is equally
wrong by the same reason and nr_task_bp_pinned[] can have
negative entries.

# perl -e 'sleep 1 while 1' &
# perf record -e mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10 -p `pidof perl`
Before this patch this triggers the same problem/WARN_ON(),
after the patch it correctly fails with -ENOSPC.

Until recently uio_get_minor() returned 0 for success and
a negative value on failure. This became non-negative for suceess and
negative for failure. Restore the original return value spec so that we can
successfully initialize UIO devices with a non-zero minor device
number.
Vince's fuzzer once again found holes. This time it spotted a leak in
the locked page accounting.
When an event had redirected output and its close() was the last
reference to the buffer we didn't have a vm context to undo accounting.
Change the code to destroy the buffer on the last munmap() and detach
all redirected events at that time. This provides us the right context
to undo the vm accounting.
Vince reported a problem found by his perf specific trinity
fuzzer.
Al noticed 2 problems with perf's mmap():
- it has issues against fork() since we use vma->vm_mm for accounting.
- it has an rb refcount leak on double mmap().
We fix the issues against fork() by using VM_DONTCOPY; I don't
think there's code out there that uses this; we didn't hear
about weird accounting problems/crashes. If we do need this to
work, the previously proposed VM_PINNED could make this work.
Aside from the rb reference leak spotted by Al, Vince's example
prog was indeed doing a double mmap() through the use of
perf_event_set_output().
This exposes another problem, since we now have 2 events with
one buffer, the accounting gets screwy because we account per
event. Fix this by making the buffer responsible for its own
accounting.

Here is a fun one. Bug seems to have been introduced by commit 140854cb,
almost two years ago. I have no idea why we only started seeing it now,
but we did.
core_tpg_set_initiator_node_queue_depth() used to call spin_lock_bh(),
but 140854cb changed that to spin_lock_irqsave(). However,
lio_tpg_shutdown_session() still claims to be called with spin_lock_bh()
held, as does iscsit_stop_time2retain_timer():
* Called with spin_lock_bh(&struct se_portal_group->session_lock) held
Stale documentation is mostly annoying, but in this case the dropping
the lock with the _bh variant is plain wrong. It is also wrong to drop
locks two functions below the lock-holder, but I will ignore that bit
for now.
After some more locking and unlocking we eventually hit this backtrace:
