global_update_bandwidth() uses static variable update_time as the
timestamp for the last update but forgets to initialize it to
INITIALIZE_JIFFIES.
This means that global_dirty_limit will be 5 mins into the future on
32bit and some large amount jiffies into the past on 64bit. This
isn't critical as the only effect is that global_dirty_limit won't be
updated for the first 5 mins after booting on 32bit machines,
especially given the auxiliary nature of global_dirty_limit's role -
protecting against global dirty threshold's sudden dips; however, it
does lead to unintended suboptimal behavior. Fix it.

The kernel crypto API logic requires the caller to provide the
length of (ciphertext || authentication tag) as cryptlen for the
AEAD decryption operation. Thus, the cipher implementation must
calculate the size of the plaintext output itself and cannot simply use
cryptlen.
The RFC4106 GCM decryption operation tries to overwrite cryptlen memory
in req->dst. As the destination buffer for decryption only needs to hold
the plaintext memory but cryptlen references the input buffer holding
(ciphertext || authentication tag), the assumption of the destination
buffer length in RFC4106 GCM operation leads to a too large size. This
patch simply uses the already calculated plaintext size.
In addition, this patch fixes the offset calculation of the AAD buffer
pointer: as mentioned before, cryptlen already includes the size of the
tag. Thus, the tag does not need to be added. With the addition, the AAD
will be written beyond the already allocated buffer.
Note, this fixes a kernel crash that can be triggered from user space
via AF_ALG(aead) -- simply use the libkcapi test application
from [1] and update it to use rfc4106-gcm-aes.
Using [1], the changes were tested using CAVS vectors to demonstrate
that the crypto operation still delivers the right results.

According to a report from Yuxuan Shui, nilfs2 in kernel 3.19 got stuck
during recovery at mount time. The code path that caused the deadlock was
as follows:
nilfs_fill_super()
load_nilfs()
nilfs_salvage_orphan_logs()
* Do roll-forwarding, attach segment constructor for recovery,
and kick it.
nilfs_segctor_thread()
nilfs_segctor_thread_construct()
* A lock is held with nilfs_transaction_lock()
nilfs_segctor_do_construct()
nilfs_segctor_drop_written_files()
iput()
iput_final()
write_inode_now()
writeback_single_inode()
__writeback_single_inode()
do_writepages()
nilfs_writepage()
nilfs_construct_dsync_segment()
nilfs_transaction_lock() --> deadlock
This can happen if commit 7ef3ff2fea8b ("nilfs2: fix deadlock of segment
constructor over I_SYNC flag") is applied and roll-forward recovery was
performed at mount time. The roll-forward recovery can happen if datasync
write is done and the file system crashes immediately after that. For
instance, we can reproduce the issue with the following steps:
< nilfs2 is mounted on /nilfs (device: /dev/sdb1) >
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/nilfs/test bs=4k count=1 && sync
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/nilfs/test conv=notrunc oflag=dsync bs=4k
count=1 && reboot -nfh
< the system will immediately reboot >
# mount -t nilfs2 /dev/sdb1 /nilfs
The deadlock occurs because iput() can run segment constructor through
writeback_single_inode() if MS_ACTIVE flag is not set on sb->s_flags. The
above commit changed segment constructor so that it calls iput()
asynchronously for inodes with i_nlink == 0, but that change was
imperfect.
This fixes the another deadlock by deferring iput() in segment constructor
even for the case that mount is not finished, that is, for the case that
MS_ACTIVE flag is not set.

Some archs (specifically PowerPC), are sensitive with the ordering of
the enabling of the calls to function tracing and setting of the
function to use to be traced.
That is, update_ftrace_function() sets what function the ftrace_caller
trampoline should call. Some archs require this to be set before
calling ftrace_run_update_code().
Another bug was discovered, that ftrace_startup_sysctl() called
ftrace_run_update_code() directly. If the function the ftrace_caller
trampoline changes, then it will not be updated. Instead a call
to ftrace_startup_enable() should be called because it tests to see
if the callback changed since the code was disabled, and will
tell the arch to update appropriately. Most archs do not need this
notification, but PowerPC does.
The problem could be seen by the following commands:
When ftrace is enabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if
ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the
FTRACE_START_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code(). Similarly, when
ftrace is disabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if
ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the
FTRACE_STOP_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code().
Since ftrace_enabled = 0, ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is never
called.
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
Now ftrace_enabled will be set to true, but still
ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() will not be called, which is not
desired.
Further if we execute the following after this:
# echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
Now since ftrace_enabled is set it will call
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller(), which causes a kernel warning on
the ARM platform.
On the ARM platform, when ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is called,
it checks whether the old instruction is a nop or not. If it's not a nop,
then it returns an error. If it is a nop then it replaces instruction at
that address with a branch to ftrace_graph_caller.
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() behaves just the opposite. Therefore,
if generic ftrace code ever calls either ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller()
or ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() consecutively two times in a row,
then it will return an error, which will cause the generic ftrace code to
raise a warning.
Note, x86 does not have an issue with this because the architecture
specific code for ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() and
ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() does not check the previous state,
and calling either of these functions twice in a row has no ill effect.

/* HACK: The dwarf2 unwind routines will subtract 1 from the

to make up for it. */
.long .LSTART_sigreturn-1-. /* PC-relative start address */
But commit 69d0627a7f6e ("x86 vDSO: reorder vdso32 code") from 2.6.25
replaced .org __kernel_vsyscall+32,0x90 by ALIGN right before
__kernel_sigreturn.
Of course, ALIGN need not generate any NOP in there. Esp. gcc5 collapses
vclock_gettime.o and int80.o together with no generated NOPs as "ALIGN".
So fix this by adding to that point at least a single NOP and make the
function ALIGN possibly with more NOPs then.

Some APs experience problems when working with
U-APSD. Decreasing the probability of that
happening by using legacy mode for all ACs but VO
isn't enough.
Cisco 4410N originally forced us to enable VO by
default only because it treated non-VO ACs as
legacy.
However some APs (notably Netgear R7000) silently
reclassify packets to different ACs. Since u-APSD
ACs require trigger frames for frame retrieval
clients would never see some frames (e.g. ARP
responses) or would fetch them accidentally after
a long time.
It makes little sense to enable u-APSD queues by
default because it needs userspace applications to
be aware of it to actually take advantage of the
possible additional powersavings. Implicitly
depending on driver autotrigger frame support
doesn't make much sense.

The commit d297933cc7fc (spi: dw: Fix detecting FIFO depth) tries to fix the
logic of the FIFO detection based on the description on the comments. However,
there is a slight difference between numbers in TX Level and TX FIFO size.
So, by specification the FIFO size would be in a range 2-256 bytes. From TX
Level prospective it means we can set threshold in the range 0-(FIFO size - 1)
bytes. Hence there are currently two issues:
a) FIFO size 2 bytes is actually skipped since TX Level is 1 bit and could be
either 0 or 1 byte;
b) FIFO size is incorrectly decreased by 1 which already done by meaning of
TX Level register.
This patch fixes it eventually right.

Fix overflow bug in tty_wait_until_sent on 64-bit machines, where an
infinite timeout (0) would be passed to the underlying tty-driver's
wait_until_sent-operation as a negative timeout (-1), causing it to
return immediately.
This manifests itself for example as tcdrain() returning immediately,
drivers not honouring the drain flags when setting terminal attributes,
or even dropped data on close as a requested infinite closing-wait
timeout would be ignored.
The first symptom was reported by Asier LLANO who noted that tcdrain()
returned prematurely when using the ftdi_sio usb-serial driver.
Fix this by passing 0 rather than MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT (LONG_MAX) to the

But it still misses one point. As John Paul correctly points out, we
do not care about setting date. If somebody ever changes wall
time backwards (by mistake for example), tty timestamps are never
updated until the original wall time passes.
So check the absolute difference of times and if it large than "8
seconds or so", always update the time. That means we will update
immediatelly when changing time. Ergo, CAP_SYS_TIME can foul the
check, but it was always that way.
Thanks John for serving me this so nicely debugged.

The xhci in Intel Sunrisepoint and Cherryview platforms need a driver
workaround for a Stuck PME that might either block PME events in suspend,

Workaround is to clear a internal PME flag, BIT(28) in a vendor specific

When a control transfer has a short data stage, the xHCI controller generates
two transfer events: a COMP_SHORT_TX event that specifies the untransferred
amount, and a COMP_SUCCESS event. But when the data stage is not short, only the
COMP_SUCCESS event occurs. Therefore, xhci-hcd must set urb->actual_length to
urb->transfer_buffer_length while processing the COMP_SUCCESS event, unless
urb->actual_length was set already by a previous COMP_SHORT_TX event.
The driver checks this by seeing whether urb->actual_length == 0, but this alone
is the wrong test, as it is entirely possible for a short transfer to have an
urb->actual_length = 0.
This patch changes the xhci driver to rely on a new td->urb_length_set flag,
which is set to true when a COMP_SHORT_TX event is received and the URB length
updated at that stage.
This fixes a bug which affected the HSO plugin, which relies on URBs with
urb->actual_length == 0 to halt re-submitting the RX URB in the control
endpoint.

eCryptfs can't be aware of what to expect when after passing an
arbitrary ioctl command through to the lower filesystem. The ioctl
command may trigger an action in the lower filesystem that is
incompatible with eCryptfs.
One specific example is when one attempts to use the Btrfs clone
ioctl command when the source file is in the Btrfs filesystem that
eCryptfs is mounted on top of and the destination fd is from a new file
created in the eCryptfs mount. The ioctl syscall incorrectly returns
success because the command is passed down to Btrfs which thinks that it
was able to do the clone operation. However, the result is an empty
eCryptfs file.
This patch allows the trim, {g,s}etflags, and {g,s}etversion ioctl
commands through and then copies up the inode metadata from the lower
inode to the eCryptfs inode to catch any changes made to the lower
inode's metadata. Those five ioctl commands are mostly common across all
filesystems but the whitelist may need to be further pruned in the
future.

Each inode of nilfs2 stores a root node of a b-tree, and it turned out to
have a memory overrun issue:
Each b-tree node of nilfs2 stores a set of key-value pairs and the number
of them (in "bn_nchildren" member of nilfs_btree_node struct), as well as
a few other "bn_*" members.
Since the value of "bn_nchildren" is used for operations on the key-values
within the b-tree node, it can cause memory access overrun if a large
number is incorrectly set to "bn_nchildren".
For instance, nilfs_btree_node_lookup() function determines the range of
binary search with it, and too large "bn_nchildren" leads
nilfs_btree_node_get_key() in that function to overrun.
As for intermediate b-tree nodes, this is prevented by a sanity check
performed when each node is read from a drive, however, no sanity check
has been done for root nodes stored in inodes.
This patch fixes the issue by adding missing sanity check against b-tree
root nodes so that it's called when on-memory inodes are read from ifile,
inode metadata file.

The current minstrel_ht rate control behavior is somewhat optimistic in
trying to find optimum TX rate. While this is usually fine for normal
Data frames, there are cases where a more conservative set of retry
parameters would be beneficial to make the connection more robust.
EAPOL frames are critical to the authentication and especially the
EAPOL-Key message 4/4 (the last message in the 4-way handshake) is
important to get through to the AP. If that message is lost, the only
recovery mechanism in many cases is to reassociate with the AP and start
from scratch. This can often be avoided by trying to send the frame with
more conservative rate and/or with more link layer retries.
In most cases, minstrel_ht is currently using the initial EAPOL-Key
frames for probing higher rates and this results in only five link layer
transmission attempts (one at high(ish) MCS and four at MCS0). While
this works with most APs, it looks like there are some deployed APs that
may have issues with the EAPOL frames using HT MCS immediately after
association. Similarly, there may be issues in cases where the signal
strength or radio environment is not good enough to be able to get
frames through even at couple of MCS 0 tries.
The best approach for this would likely to be to reduce the TX rate for
the last rate (3rd rate parameter in the set) to a low basic rate (say,
6 Mbps on 5 GHz and 2 or 5.5 Mbps on 2.4 GHz), but doing that cleanly
requires some more effort. For now, we can start with a simple one-liner
that forces the minimum rate to be used for EAPOL frames similarly how
the TX rate is selected for the IEEE 802.11 Management frames. This does
result in a small extra latency added to the cases where the AP would be
able to receive the higher rate, but taken into account how small number
of EAPOL frames are used, this is likely to be insignificant. A future
optimization in the minstrel_ht design can also allow this patch to be
reverted to get back to the more optimized initial TX rate.
It should also be noted that many drivers that do not use minstrel as
the rate control algorithm are already doing similar workarounds by
forcing the lowest TX rate to be used for EAPOL frames.

With commit a7526eb5d06b (net: Unbreak compat_sys_{send,recv}msg), the
MSG_CMSG_COMPAT flag is blocked at the compat syscall entry points,
changing the kernel compat behaviour from the one before the commit it
was trying to fix (1be374a0518a, net: Block MSG_CMSG_COMPAT in
send(m)msg and recv(m)msg).
On 32-bit kernels (!CONFIG_COMPAT), MSG_CMSG_COMPAT is 0 and the native
32-bit sys_sendmsg() allows flag 0x80000000 to be set (it is ignored by
the kernel). However, on a 64-bit kernel, the compat ABI is different
with commit a7526eb5d06b.
This patch changes the compat_sys_{send,recv}msg behaviour to the one
prior to commit 1be374a0518a.
The problem was found running 32-bit LTP (sendmsg01) binary on an arm64
kernel. Arguably, LTP should not pass 0xffffffff as flags to sendmsg()
but the general rule is not to break user ABI (even when the user
behaviour is not entirely sane).

The bug shows up as an infinite loop in Windows 7 (and newer) boot on
32-bit hosts without EPT.
Windows uses CMPXCHG8B to write to page tables, which causes a
page fault if running without EPT; the emulator is then called from
kvm_mmu_page_fault. The loop then happens if the higher 4 bytes are
not 0; the common case for this is that the NX bit (bit 63) is 1.

A new fsync vs power fail test in xfstests indicated that XFS can
have unreliable data consistency when doing extending truncates that
require block zeroing. The blocks beyond EOF get zeroed in memory,
but we never force those changes to disk before we run the
transaction that extends the file size and exposes those blocks to
userspace. This can result in the blocks not being correctly zeroed
after a crash.
Because in-memory behaviour is correct, tools like fsx don't pick up
any coherency problems - it's not until the filesystem is shutdown
or the system crashes after writing the truncate transaction to the
journal but before the zeroed data in the page cache is flushed that
the issue is exposed.
Fix this by also flushing the dirty data in memory region between
the old size and new size when we've found blocks that need zeroing
in the truncate process.

Note that, it declares the "random_variable" variable as "unsigned int".
Since the result of the shifting operation between STACK_RND_MASK (which
is 0x3fffff on x86_64, 22 bits) and PAGE_SHIFT (which is 12 on x86_64):
random_variable <<= PAGE_SHIFT;
then the two leftmost bits are dropped when storing the result in the
"random_variable". This variable shall be at least 34 bits long to hold
the (22+12) result.
These two dropped bits have an impact on the entropy of process stack.
Concretely, the total stack entropy is reduced by four: from 2^28 to
2^30 (One fourth of expected entropy).
This patch restores back the entropy by correcting the types involved
in the operations in the functions randomize_stack_top() and
stack_maxrandom_size().
Because task_group() uses a cache of autogroup_task_group(), whose
output depends on sched_class, switching classes can generate
problems.
In particular, when started as fair, the cache points to the
autogroup, so when switching to RT the tg_rt_schedulable() test fails
for every cpu.rt_{runtime,period}_us change because now the autogroup
has tasks and no runtime.
Furthermore, going back to the previous semantics of varying
task_group() with sched_class has the down-side that the sched_debug
output varies as well, even though the task really is in the
autogroup.
Therefore add an autogroup exception to tg_has_rt_tasks() -- such that
both (all) task_group() usages in sched/core now have one. And remove
all the remnants of the variable task_group() output.

When the snapshot target is unloaded, snapshot_dtr() waits until
pending_exceptions_count drops to zero. Then, it destroys the snapshot.
Therefore, the function that decrements pending_exceptions_count
should not touch the snapshot structure after the decrement.
pending_complete() calls free_pending_exception(), which decrements
pending_exceptions_count, and then it performs up_write(&s->lock) and it
calls retry_origin_bios() which dereferences s->origin. These two
memory accesses to the fields of the snapshot may touch the dm_snapshot
struture after it is freed.

The function dm_get_md finds a device mapper device with a given dev_t,
increases the reference count and returns the pointer.
dm_get_md calls dm_find_md, dm_find_md takes _minor_lock, finds the
device, tests that the device doesn't have DMF_DELETING or DMF_FREEING
flag, drops _minor_lock and returns pointer to the device. dm_get_md then
calls dm_get. dm_get calls BUG if the device has the DMF_FREEING flag,
otherwise it increments the reference count.
There is a possible race condition - after dm_find_md exits and before
dm_get is called, there are no locks held, so the device may disappear or
DMF_FREEING flag may be set, which results in BUG.
To fix this bug, we need to call dm_get while we hold _minor_lock. This

ipv6_cow_metrics() currently assumes only DST_HOST routes require
dynamic metrics allocation from inetpeer. The assumption breaks
when ndisc discovered router with RTAX_MTU and RTAX_HOPLIMIT metric.
Refer to ndisc_router_discovery() in ndisc.c and note that dst_metric_set()
is called after the route is created.
This patch creates the metrics array (by calling dst_cow_metrics_generic) in
ipv6_cow_metrics().
Before:
[root@qemu1 ~]# ip -6 r show | egrep -v unreachable
fd00:face:face:face::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 expires 27sec
fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256
default via fe80::74df:d0ff:fe23:8ef2 dev eth0 proto ra metric 1024 expires 27sec
After:
[root@qemu1 ~]# ip -6 r show | egrep -v unreachable
fd00:face:face:face::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 expires 27sec mtu 1300
fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1300
default via fe80::74df:d0ff:fe23:8ef2 dev eth0 proto ra metric 1024 expires 27sec mtu 1300 hoplimit 30

I created a dm-raid1 device backed by a device that supports DISCARD
and another device that does NOT support DISCARD with the following
dm configuration:
Notice that the mirror device /dev/mapper/moo advertises DISCARD
support even though one of the mirror halves doesn't.
If I issue a DISCARD request (via fstrim, mount -o discard, or ioctl
BLKDISCARD) through the mirror, kmirrord gets stuck in an infinite
loop in do_region() when it tries to issue a DISCARD request to sdb.
The problem is that when we call do_region() against sdb, num_sectors
is set to zero because q->limits.max_discard_sectors is zero.
Therefore, "remaining" never decreases and the loop never terminates.
To fix this: before entering the loop, check for the combination of
REQ_DISCARD and no discard and return -EOPNOTSUPP to avoid hanging up
the mirror device.
This bug was found by the unfortunate coincidence of pvmove and a
discard operation in the RHEL 6.5 kernel; upstream is also affected.

It may be possible that a device claims discard support but it rejects
discards with -EOPNOTSUPP. It happens when using loopback on ext2/ext3
filesystem driven by the ext4 driver. It may also happen if the
underlying devices are moved from one disk on another.
If discard error happens, we reject the bio with -EOPNOTSUPP, but we do
not degrade the array.
This patch fixes failed test shell/lvconvert-repair-transient.sh in the
lvm2 testsuite if the testsuite is extracted on an ext2 or ext3
filesystem and it is being driven by the ext4 driver.

For whatever reason, generic_access_phys() only remaps one page, but
actually allows to access arbitrary size. It's quite easy to trigger
large reads, like printing out large structure with gdb, which leads to a
crash. Fix it by remapping correct size.

This patch drops legacy active_ts_list usage within iscsi_target_tq.c
code. It was originally used to track the active thread sets during
iscsi-target shutdown, and is no longer used by modern upstream code.
Two people have reported list corruption using traditional iscsi-target
and iser-target with the following backtrace, that appears to be related
to iscsi_thread_set->ts_list being used across both active_ts_list and
inactive_ts_list.
Since this code is no longer used, go ahead and drop the problematic usage
all-together.
