2013-05-19target: close target_put_sess_cmd() vs. core_tmr_abort_task() raceJoern Engel
commit ccf5ae83a6cf3d9cfe9a7038bfe7cd38ab03d5e1 upstream. It is possible for one thread to to take se_sess->sess_cmd_lock in core_tmr_abort_task() before taking a reference count on se_cmd->cmd_kref, while another thread in target_put_sess_cmd() drops se_cmd->cmd_kref before taking se_sess->sess_cmd_lock. This introduces kref_put_spinlock_irqsave() and uses it in target_put_sess_cmd() to close the race window.

2013-05-19ipv6: do not clear pinet6 fieldEric Dumazet
[ Upstream commit f77d602124d865c38705df7fa25c03de9c284ad2 ] We have seen multiple NULL dereferences in __inet6_lookup_established() After analysis, I found that inet6_sk() could be NULL while the check for sk_family == AF_INET6 was true. Bug was added in linux-2.6.29 when RCU lookups were introduced in UDP and TCP stacks. Once an IPv6 socket, using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU is inserted in a hash table, we no longer can clear pinet6 field. This patch extends logic used in commit fcbdf09d9652c891 ("net: fix nulls list corruptions in sk_prot_alloc") TCP/UDP/UDPLite IPv6 protocols provide their own .clear_sk() method to make sure we do not clear pinet6 field. At socket clone phase, we do not really care, as cloning the parent (non NULL) pinet6 is not adding a fatal race. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-05-19net: frag, fix race conditions in LRU list maintenanceKonstantin Khlebnikov
[ Upstream commit b56141ab34e2c3e2d7960cea12c20c99530c0c76 ] This patch fixes race between inet_frag_lru_move() and inet_frag_lru_add() which was introduced in commit 3ef0eb0db4bf92c6d2510fe5c4dc51852746f206 ("net: frag, move LRU list maintenance outside of rwlock") One cpu already added new fragment queue into hash but not into LRU. Other cpu found it in hash and tries to move it to the end of LRU. This leads to NULL pointer dereference inside of list_move_tail(). Another possible race condition is between inet_frag_lru_move() and inet_frag_lru_del(): move can happens after deletion. This patch initializes LRU list head before adding fragment into hash and inet_frag_lru_move() doesn't touches it if it's empty. I saw this kernel oops two times in a couple of days.

2013-05-19time: Revert ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK compile time optimizaitonsJohn Stultz
commit b4f711ee03d28f776fd2324fd0bd999cc428e4d2 upstream. Kay Sievers noted that the ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK config, which enables some minor compile time optimization to avoid uncessary code in mostly the suspend/resume path could cause problems for userland. In particular, the dependency for RTC_HCTOSYS on !ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK, which avoids setting the time twice and simplifies suspend/resume, has the side effect of causing the /sys/class/rtc/rtcN/hctosys flag to always be zero, and this flag is commonly used by udev to setup the /dev/rtc symlink to /dev/rtcN, which can cause pain for older applications. While the udev rules could use some work to be less fragile, breaking userland should strongly be avoided. Additionally the compile time optimizations are fairly minor, and the code being optimized is likely to be reworked in the future, so lets revert this change.

2013-05-19audit: Syscall rules are not applied to existing processes on non-x86Anton Blanchard
commit cdee3904b4ce7c03d1013ed6dd704b43ae7fc2e9 upstream. Commit b05d8447e782 (audit: inline audit_syscall_entry to reduce burden on archs) changed audit_syscall_entry to check for a dummy context before calling __audit_syscall_entry. Unfortunately the dummy context state is maintained in __audit_syscall_entry so once set it never gets cleared, even if the audit rules change. As a result, if there are no auditing rules when a process starts then it will never be subject to any rules added later. x86 doesn't see this because it has an assembly fast path that calls directly into __audit_syscall_entry. I noticed this issue when working on audit performance optimisations. I wrote a set of simple test cases available at: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/audit_tests.tar.gz 02_new_rule.py fails without the patch and passes with it. The test case clears all rules, starts a process, adds a rule then verifies the process produces a syscall audit record.

2013-05-11drm/prime: keep a reference from the handle to exported dma-buf (v6)Dave Airlie
commit 219b47339ced80ca580bb6ce7d1636166984afa7 upstream. Currently we have a problem with this: 1. i915: create gem object 2. i915: export gem object to prime 3. radeon: import gem object 4. close prime fd 5. radeon: unref object 6. i915: unref object i915 has an imported object reference in its file priv, that isn't cleaned up properly until fd close. The reference gets added at step 2, but at step 6 we don't have enough info to clean it up. The solution is to take a reference on the dma-buf when we export it, and drop the reference when the gem handle goes away. So when we export a dma_buf from a gem object, we keep track of it with the handle, we take a reference to the dma_buf. When we close the handle (i.e. userspace is finished with the buffer), we drop the reference to the dma_buf, and it gets collected. This patch isn't meant to fix any other problem or bikesheds, and it doesn't fix any races with other scenarios. v1.1: move export symbol line back up. v2: okay I had to do a bit more, as the first patch showed a leak on one of my tests, that I found using the dma-buf debugfs support, the problem case is exporting a buffer twice with the same handle, we'd add another export handle for it unnecessarily, however we now fail if we try to export the same object with a different gem handle, however I'm not sure if that is a case I want to support, and I've gotten the code to WARN_ON if we hit something like that. v2.1: rebase this patch, write better commit msg. v3: cleanup error handling, track import vs export in linked list, these two patches were separate previously, but seem to work better like this. v4: danvet is correct, this code is no longer useful, since the buffer better exist, so remove it. v5: always take a reference to the dma buf object, import or export. (Imre Deak contributed this originally) v6: square the circle, remove import vs export tracking now that there is no difference Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2013-05-11hugetlbfs: fix mmap failure in unaligned size requestNaoya Horiguchi
commit af73e4d9506d3b797509f3c030e7dcd554f7d9c4 upstream. The current kernel returns -EINVAL unless a given mmap length is "almost" hugepage aligned. This is because in sys_mmap_pgoff() the given length is passed to vm_mmap_pgoff() as it is without being aligned with hugepage boundary. This is a regression introduced in commit 40716e29243d ("hugetlbfs: fix alignment of huge page requests"), where alignment code is pushed into hugetlb_file_setup() and the variable len in caller side is not changed. To fix this, this patch partially reverts that commit, and adds alignment code in caller side. And it also introduces hstate_sizelog() in order to get proper hstate to specified hugepage size.

2013-05-07ext4/jbd2: don't wait (forever) for stale tid caused by wraparoundTheodore Ts'o
commit d76a3a77113db020d9bb1e894822869410450bd9 upstream. In the case where an inode has a very stale transaction id (tid) in i_datasync_tid or i_sync_tid, it's possible that after a very large (2**31) number of transactions, that the tid number space might wrap, causing tid_geq()'s calculations to fail. Commit deeeaf13 "jbd2: fix fsync() tid wraparound bug", later modified by commit e7b04ac0 "jbd2: don't wake kjournald unnecessarily", attempted to fix this problem, but it only avoided kjournald spinning forever by fixing the logic in jbd2_log_start_commit(). Unfortunately, in the codepaths in fs/ext4/fsync.c and fs/ext4/inode.c that might call jbd2_log_start_commit() with a stale tid, those functions will subsequently call jbd2_log_wait_commit() with the same stale tid, and then wait for a very long time. To fix this, we replace the calls to jbd2_log_start_commit() and jbd2_log_wait_commit() with a call to a new function, jbd2_complete_transaction(), which will correctly handle stale tid's. As a bonus, jbd2_complete_transaction() will avoid locking j_state_lock for writing unless a commit needs to be started. This should have a small (but probably not measurable) improvement for ext4's scalability.

2013-05-07exec: do not abuse ->cred_guard_mutex in threadgroup_lock()Oleg Nesterov
commit e56fb2874015370e3b7f8d85051f6dce26051df9 upstream. threadgroup_lock() takes signal->cred_guard_mutex to ensure that thread_group_leader() is stable. This doesn't look nice, the scope of this lock in do_execve() is huge. And as Dave pointed out this can lead to deadlock, we have the following dependencies: do_execve: cred_guard_mutex -> i_mutex cgroup_mount: i_mutex -> cgroup_mutex attach_task_by_pid: cgroup_mutex -> cred_guard_mutex Change de_thread() to take threadgroup_change_begin() around the switch-the-leader code and change threadgroup_lock() to avoid ->cred_guard_mutex. Note that de_thread() can't sleep with ->group_rwsem held, this can obviously deadlock with the exiting leader if the writer is active, so it does threadgroup_change_end() before schedule().

commit 712317ad97f41e738e1a19aa0a6392a78a84094e upstream. We should store file xattrs in struct cfent instead of struct cftype, because cftype is a type while cfent is object instance of cftype. For example each cgroup has a tasks file, and each tasks file is associated with a uniq cfent, but all those files share the same struct cftype. Alexey Kodanev reported a crash, which can be reproduced: # mount -t cgroup -o xattr /sys/fs/cgroup # mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test # setfattr -n trusted.value -v test_value /sys/fs/cgroup/tasks # rmdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test # umount /sys/fs/cgroup oops!

The "reason" can come from skb->data[] and it hasn't been capped so it can be from 0-255 instead of just 0-6. For example in irlmp_state_dtr() the code does: reason = skb->data[3]; ... irlmp_disconnect_indication(self, reason, skb); Also LMREASON has a couple other values which don't have entries in the irlmp_reasons[] array. And 0xff is a valid reason as well which means "unknown". So far as I can see we don't actually care about "reason" except for in the debug code.

Chao said that kdump does does work well on his system on 3.8 without extra parameter, even iommu does not work with kdump. And now have to append crashkernel_low=Y in first kernel to make kdump work. We have now modified crashkernel=X to allocate memory beyong 4G (if available) and do not allocate low range for crashkernel if the user does not specify that with crashkernel_low=Y. This causes regression if iommu is not enabled. Without iommu, swiotlb needs to be setup in first 4G and there is no low memory available to second kernel. Set crashkernel_low automatically if the user does not specify that. For system that does support IOMMU with kdump properly, user could specify crashkernel_low=0 to save that 72M low ram. -v3: add swiotlb_size() according to Konrad. -v4: add comments what 8M is for according to hpa. also update more crashkernel_low= in kernel-parameters.txt -v5: update changelog according to Vivek. -v6: Change description about swiotlb referring according to HATAYAMA.

2013-04-16vm: add vm_iomap_memory() helper functionLinus Torvalds
Various drivers end up replicating the code to mmap() their memory buffers into user space, and our core memory remapping function may be very flexible but it is unnecessarily complicated for the common cases to use. Our internal VM uses pfn's ("page frame numbers") which simplifies things for the VM, and allows us to pass physical addresses around in a denser and more efficient format than passing a "phys_addr_t" around, and having to shift it up and down by the page size. But it just means that drivers end up doing that shifting instead at the interface level. It also means that drivers end up mucking around with internal VM things like the vma details (vm_pgoff, vm_start/end) way more than they really need to. So this just exports a function to map a certain physical memory range into user space (using a phys_addr_t based interface that is much more natural for a driver) and hides all the complexity from the driver. Some drivers will still end up tweaking the vm_page_prot details for things like prefetching or cacheability etc, but that's actually relevant to the driver, rather than caring about what the page offset of the mapping is into the particular IO memory region.

2013-04-14Add file_ns_capable() helper function for open-time capability checkingLinus Torvalds
Nothing is using it yet, but this will allow us to delay the open-time checks to use time, without breaking the normal UNIX permission semantics where permissions are determined by the opener (and the file descriptor can then be passed to a different process, or the process can drop capabilities).

2013-04-12x86-32: Fix possible incomplete TLB invalidate with PAE pagetablesDave Hansen
This patch attempts to fix: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56461 The symptom is a crash and messages like this: chrome: Corrupted page table at address 34a03000 *pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 0000000000000000 Bad pagetable: 000f [#1] PREEMPT SMP Ingo guesses this got introduced by commit 611ae8e3f520 ("x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range support for x86") since that code started to free unused pagetables. On x86-32 PAE kernels, that new code has the potential to free an entire PMD page and will clear one of the four page-directory-pointer-table (aka pgd_t entries). The hardware aggressively "caches" these top-level entries and invlpg does not actually affect the CPU's copy. If we clear one we *HAVE* to do a full TLB flush, otherwise we might continue using a freed pmd page. (note, we do this properly on the population side in pud_populate()). This patch tracks whenever we clear one of these entries in the 'struct mmu_gather', and ensures that we follow up with a full tlb flush. BTW, I disassembled and checked that: if (tlb->fullmm == 0) and if (!tlb->fullmm && !tlb->need_flush_all) generate essentially the same code, so there should be zero impact there to the !PAE case.

2013-04-12tracing: Fix possible NULL pointer dereferencesNamhyung Kim
Currently set_ftrace_pid and set_graph_function files use seq_lseek for their fops. However seq_open() is called only for FMODE_READ in the fops->open() so that if an user tries to seek one of those file when she open it for writing, it sees NULL seq_file and then panic. It can be easily reproduced with following command: $ cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing $ echo 1234 | sudo tee -a set_ftrace_pid In this example, GNU coreutils' tee opens the file with fopen(, "a") and then the fopen() internally calls lseek().

2013-04-12kthread: Prevent unpark race which puts threads on the wrong cpuThomas Gleixner
The smpboot threads rely on the park/unpark mechanism which binds per cpu threads on a particular core. Though the functionality is racy: CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 unpark(T) wake_up_process(T) clear(SHOULD_PARK) T runs leave parkme() due to !SHOULD_PARK bind_to(CPU2) BUG_ON(wrong CPU) We cannot let the tasks move themself to the target CPU as one of those tasks is actually the migration thread itself, which requires that it starts running on the target cpu right away. The solution to this problem is to prevent wakeups in park mode which are not from unpark(). That way we can guarantee that the association of the task to the target cpu is working correctly. Add a new task state (TASK_PARKED) which prevents other wakeups and use this state explicitly for the unpark wakeup. Peter noticed: Also, since the task state is visible to userspace and all the parked tasks are still in the PID space, its a good hint in ps and friends that these tasks aren't really there for the moment. The migration thread has another related issue. CPU0 CPU1 Bring up CPU2 create_thread(T) park(T) wait_for_completion() parkme() complete() sched_set_stop_task() schedule(TASK_PARKED) The sched_set_stop_task() call is issued while the task is on the runqueue of CPU1 and that confuses the hell out of the stop_task class on that cpu. So we need the same synchronizaion before sched_set_stop_task().
