ext3: Fix oops in ext3_try_to_allocate_with_rsv()

commit ad95c5e9bc8b5885f94dce720137cac8fa8da4c9 upstream.

Block allocation is called from two places: ext3_get_blocks_handle() and
ext3_xattr_block_set(). These two callers are not necessarily synchronized
because xattr code holds only xattr_sem and i_mutex, and
ext3_get_blocks_handle() may hold only truncate_mutex when called from
writepage() path. Block reservation code does not expect two concurrent
allocations to happen to the same inode and thus assertions can be triggered
or reservation structure corruption can occur.

Fix the problem by taking truncate_mutex in xattr code to serialize
allocations.

ext4: fix i_blocks/quota accounting when extent insertion fails

commit 7132de744ba76930d13033061018ddd7e3e8cd91 upstream.

The current implementation of ext4_free_blocks() always calls
dquot_free_block This looks quite sensible in the most cases: blocks
to be freed are associated with inode and were accounted in quota and
i_blocks some time ago.

However, there is a case when blocks to free were not accounted by the
time calling ext4_free_blocks() yet:

1. delalloc is on, write_begin pre-allocated some space in quota
2. write-back happens, ext4 allocates some blocks in ext4_ext_map_blocks()
3. then ext4_ext_map_blocks() gets an error (e.g.  ENOSPC) from
   ext4_ext_insert_extent() and calls ext4_free_blocks().

In this scenario, ext4_free_blocks() calls dquot_free_block() who, in
turn, decrements i_blocks for blocks which were not accounted yet (due
to delalloc) After clean umount, e2fsck reports something like:

> Inode 21, i_blocks is 5080, should be 5128.  Fix<y>?
because i_blocks was erroneously decremented as explained above.

The patch fixes the problem by passing the new flag
EXT4_FREE_BLOCKS_NO_QUOT_UPDATE to ext4_free_blocks(), to request
that the dquot_free_block() call be skipped.

13 years agomm/futex: fix futex writes on archs with SW tracking of dirty & young
Benjamin Herrenschmidt [Tue, 26 Jul 2011 00:12:32 +0000 (17:12 -0700)]
mm/futex: fix futex writes on archs with SW tracking of dirty & young

commit 2efaca927f5cd7ecd0f1554b8f9b6a9a2c329c03 upstream.

I haven't reproduced it myself but the fail scenario is that on such
machines (notably ARM and some embedded powerpc), if you manage to hit
that futex path on a writable page whose dirty bit has gone from the PTE,
you'll livelock inside the kernel from what I can tell.

It will go in a loop of trying the atomic access, failing, trying gup to
"fix it up", getting succcess from gup, go back to the atomic access,
failing again because dirty wasn't fixed etc...

So I think you essentially hang in the kernel.

The scenario is probably rare'ish because affected architecture are
embedded and tend to not swap much (if at all) so we probably rarely hit
the case where dirty is missing or young is missing, but I think Shan has
a piece of SW that can reliably reproduce it using a shared writable
mapping & fork or something like that.

On archs who use SW tracking of dirty & young, a page without dirty is
effectively mapped read-only and a page without young unaccessible in the
PTE.

Additionally, some architectures might lazily flush the TLB when relaxing
write protection (by doing only a local flush), and expect a fault to
invalidate the stale entry if it's still present on another processor.

The futex code assumes that if the "in_atomic()" access -EFAULT's, it can
"fix it up" by causing get_user_pages() which would then be equivalent to
taking the fault.

However that isn't the case.  get_user_pages() will not call
handle_mm_fault() in the case where the PTE seems to have the right
permissions, regardless of the dirty and young state.  It will eventually
update those bits ...  in the struct page, but not in the PTE.

Additionally, it will not handle the lazy TLB flushing that can be
required by some architectures in the fault case.

Basically, gup is the wrong interface for the job.  The patch provides a
more appropriate one which boils down to just calling handle_mm_fault()
since what we are trying to do is simulate a real page fault.

The futex code currently attempts to write to user memory within a
pagefault disabled section, and if that fails, tries to fix it up using
get_user_pages().

This doesn't work on archs where the dirty and young bits are maintained
by software, since they will gate access permission in the TLB, and will
not be updated by gup().

In addition, there's an expectation on some archs that a spurious write
fault triggers a local TLB flush, and that is missing from the picture as
well.

I decided that adding those "features" to gup() would be too much for this
already too complex function, and instead added a new simpler
fixup_user_fault() which is essentially a wrapper around handle_mm_fault()
which the futex code can call.

The "enable" file for the event system can be removed when a module

As the event system nr_events count goes to zero, it may be freed

Like the "filter" file, the "enable" file may be opened by a task and
referenced later, after a module has been unloaded and the events for
that event system have been removed.

Although the "filter" file referenced the event system structure,
the "enable" file only references a pointer to the event system
name. Since the name is freed when the event system is removed,
it is possible that an access to the "enable" file may reference
a freed pointer.

Update the "enable" file to use the subsystem_open() routine that
the "filter" file uses, to keep a reference to the event system

The event system is freed when its nr_events is set to zero. This happens
when a module created an event system and then later the module is

The problem arises when a task opened the "filter" file for the
system. If the module is unloaded and it removed the last event for
that system, the system structure is freed. If the task that opened
the filter file accesses the "filter" file after the system has
been freed, the system will access an invalid pointer.

By adding a ref_count, and using it to keep track of what

are finished with the event system.

kexec, x86: Fix incorrect jump back address if not preserving context

commit 050438ed5a05b25cdf287f5691e56a58c2606997 upstream.

In kexec jump support, jump back address passed to the kexeced
kernel via function calling ABI, that is, the function call
return address is the jump back entry.

Furthermore, jump back entry == 0 should be used to signal that
the jump back or preserve context is not enabled in the original
kernel.

But in the current implementation the stack position used for
function call return address is not cleared context
preservation is disabled. The patch fixes this bug.

pmcraid: reject negative request size

commit b5b515445f4f5a905c5dd27e6e682868ccd6c09d upstream.

There's a code path in pmcraid that can be reached via device ioctl that
causes all sorts of ugliness, including heap corruption or triggering the
OOM killer due to consecutive allocation of large numbers of pages.

First, the user can call pmcraid_chr_ioctl(), with a type
PMCRAID_PASSTHROUGH_IOCTL.  This calls through to
pmcraid_ioctl_passthrough().  Next, a pmcraid_passthrough_ioctl_buffer
is copied in, and the request_size variable is set to
buffer->ioarcb.data_transfer_length, which is an arbitrary 32-bit
signed value provided by the user.  If a negative value is provided
here, bad things can happen.  For example,
pmcraid_build_passthrough_ioadls() is called with this request_size,
which immediately calls pmcraid_alloc_sglist() with a negative size.
The resulting math on allocating a scatter list can result in an
overflow in the kzalloc() call (if num_elem is 0, the sglist will be
smaller than expected), or if num_elem is unexpectedly large the
subsequent loop will call alloc_pages() repeatedly, a high number of
pages will be allocated and the OOM killer might be invoked.

It looks like preventing this value from being negative in
pmcraid_ioctl_passthrough() would be sufficient.

fix crash in scsi_dispatch_cmd()

commit bfe159a51203c15d23cb3158fffdc25ec4b4dda1 upstream.

USB surprise removal of sr is triggering an oops in
scsi_dispatch_command().  What seems to be happening is that USB is
hanging on to a queue reference until the last close of the upper
device, so the crash is caused by surprise remove of a mounted CD
followed by attempted unmount.

The problem is that USB doesn't issue its final commands as part of
the SCSI teardown path, but on last close when the block queue is long
gone.  The long term fix is probably to make sr do the teardown in the
same way as sd (so remove all the lower bits on ejection, but keep the
upper disk alive until last close of user space).  However, the
current oops can be simply fixed by not allowing any commands to be
sent to a dead queue.

As a result, WSM-EP, SNB, and later hardware from Intel will run in its
default hardware power-on state (performance), which assumes that users
care for performance at all costs and not for energy efficiency.
While that is fine for performance benchmarks, the hardware's intended default
operating point is "normal" mode...

Initialize the MSR to the "normal" by default during kernel boot.

x86_energy_perf_policy(8) is available to change the default after boot,
should the user have a different preference.

perf tools: Fix endian conversion reading event attr from file header

commit eda3913bb70ecebac13adccffe1e7f96e93cee02 upstream.

The perf_event_attr struct has two __u32's at the top and
they need to be swapped individually.

With this change I was able to analyze a perf.data collected in a
32-bit PPC VM on an x86 system. I tested both 32-bit and 64-bit
binaries for the Intel analysis side; both read the PPC perf.data
file correctly.

-v2:
 - changed the existing perf_event__attr_swap() to swap only elements
   of perf_event_attr and exported it for use in swapping the
   attributes in the file header
 - updated swap_ops used for processing events

Bart Van Assche [Wed, 13 Jul 2011 16:19:16 +0000 (09:19 -0700)]
IB/srp: Avoid duplicate devices from LUN scan

commit fd1b6c4a693c9cac59375ffb36ffe5d7c079037c upstream.

SCSI scanning of a channel:id:lun triplet in Linux works as follows
(function scsi_scan_target() in drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c):

- If lun == SCAN_WILD_CARD, send a REPORT LUNS command to the target
  and process the result.

- If lun != SCAN_WILD_CARD, send an INQUIRY command to the LUN
  corresponding to the specified channel:id:lun triplet to verify
  whether the LUN exists.

So a SCSI driver must either take the channel and target id values in
account in its quecommand() function or it should declare that it only
supports one channel and one target id.

Currently the ib_srp driver does neither.  As a result scanning the
SCSI bus via e.g. rescan-scsi-bus.sh causes many duplicate SCSI
devices to be created. For each 0:0:L device, several duplicates are
created with the same LUN number and with (C:I) != (0:0). Fix this by
declaring that the ib_srp driver only supports one channel and one
target id.

Stefan Richter [Sat, 9 Jul 2011 14:43:22 +0000 (16:43 +0200)]
firewire: cdev: prevent race between first get_info ioctl and bus reset event queuing

commit 93b37905f70083d6143f5f4dba0a45cc64379a62 upstream.

Between open(2) of a /dev/fw* and the first FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_INFO
ioctl(2) on it, the kernel already queues FW_CDEV_EVENT_BUS_RESET events
to be read(2) by the client.  The get_info ioctl is practically always
issued right away after open, hence this condition only occurs if the
client opens during a bus reset, especially during a rapid series of bus
resets.

The problem with this condition is twofold:

  - These bus reset events carry the (as yet undocumented) @closure
    value of 0.  But it is not the kernel's place to choose closures;
    they are privat to the client.  E.g., this 0 value forced from the
    kernel makes it unsafe for clients to dereference it as a pointer to
    a closure object without NULL pointer check.

  - It is impossible for clients to determine the relative order of bus
    reset events from get_info ioctl(2) versus those from read(2),
    except in one way:  By comparison of closure values.  Again, such a
    procedure imposes complexity on clients and reduces freedom in use
    of the bus reset closure.

So, change the ABI to suppress queuing of bus reset events before the
first FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_INFO ioctl was issued by the client.

Note, this ABI change cannot be version-controlled.  The kernel cannot
distinguish old from new clients before the first FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_INFO
ioctl.

We will try to back-merge this change into currently maintained stable/
longterm series, and we only document the new behaviour.  The old
behavior is now considered a kernel bug, which it basically is.

So let's correct this in the <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI while it is
still young, relative to distributor adoption.

Side note:  We return -ENOTTY not only on _IOC_TYPE or _IOC_NR mismatch,
but also on _IOC_SIZE mismatch.  An ioctl with an unsupported size of
argument structure can be seen as an unsupported version of that ioctl.

USB: EHCI: go back to using the system clock for QH unlinks

commit 004c19682884d4f40000ce1ded53f4a1d0b18206 upstream.

This patch (as1477) fixes a problem affecting a few types of EHCI
controller.  Contrary to what one might expect, these controllers
automatically stop their internal frame counter when no ports are
enabled.  Since ehci-hcd currently relies on the frame counter for
determining when it should unlink QHs from the async schedule, those
controllers run into trouble: The frame counter stops and the QHs
never get unlinked.

Some systems have also experienced other problems traced back to
commit b963801164618e25fbdc0cd452ce49c3628b46c8 (USB: ehci-hcd unlink
speedups), which made the original switch from using the system clock
to using the frame counter.  It never became clear what the reason was
for these problems, but evidently it is related to use of the frame
counter.

To fix all these problems, this patch more or less reverts that commit
and goes back to using the system clock.  But this can't be done
cleanly because other changes have since been made to the scan_async()
subroutine.  One of these changes involved the tricky logic that tries
to avoid rescanning QHs that have already been seen when the scanning
loop is restarted, which happens whenever an URB is given back.
Switching back to clock-based unlinks would make this logic even more
complicated.

Therefore the new code doesn't rescan the entire async list whenever a
giveback occurs.  Instead it rescans only the current QH and continues
on from there.  This requires the use of a separate pointer to keep
track of the next QH to scan, since the current QH may be unlinked
while the scanning is in progress.  That new pointer must be global,
so that it can be adjusted forward whenever the _next_ QH gets
unlinked.  (uhci-hcd uses this same trick.)

Simplification of the scanning loop removes a level of indentation,
which accounts for the size of the patch.  The amount of code changed
is relatively small, and it isn't exactly a reversion of the
b963801164 commit.

This fixes Bugzilla #32432.

USB: OHCI: fix another regression for NVIDIA controllers

commit 6ea12a04d295235ed67010a09fdea58c949e3eb0 upstream.

The NVIDIA series of OHCI controllers continues to be troublesome.  A
few people using the MCP67 chipset have reported that even with the
most recent kernels, the OHCI controller fails to handle new
connections and spams the system log with "unable to enumerate USB
port" messages.  This is different from the other problems previously
reported for NVIDIA OHCI controllers, although it is probably related.

It turns out that the MCP67 controller does not like to be kept in the
RESET state very long.  After only a few seconds, it decides not to
work any more.  This patch (as1479) changes the PCI initialization
quirk code so that NVIDIA controllers are switched into the SUSPEND
state after 50 ms of RESET.  With no interrupts enabled and all the
downstream devices reset, and thus unable to send wakeup requests,
this should be perfectly safe (even for non-NVIDIA hardware).

The removal code in ohci-hcd hasn't been changed; it will still leave
the controller in the RESET state.  As a result, if someone unloads
ohci-hcd and then reloads it, the controller won't work again until
the system is rebooted.  If anybody complains about this, the removal
code can be updated similarly.

This fixes Bugzilla #22052.

doesn't get transmitted from A -> C. Because of that
the link from A-C is transistioned to the forwarding state.

The root cause of this is that the configuration messages
is generated with bogus message age, and dropped before
sending.

In the standardmessage_age is supposed to be:
  the time since the generation of the Configuration BPDU by
  the Root that instigated the generation of this Configuration BPDU.

Reimplement this by recording the timestamp (age + jiffies) when
recording config information. The old code incorrectly used the time
elapsed on the ageing timer which was incorrect.

softirq,rcu: Inform RCU of irq_exit() activity

The rcu_read_unlock_special() function relies on in_irq() to exclude
scheduler activity from interrupt level.  This fails because exit_irq()
can invoke the scheduler after clearing the preempt_count() bits that
in_irq() uses to determine that it is at interrupt level.  This situation
can result in failures as follows:

 $task IRQ SoftIRQ

 rcu_read_lock()

 <preempt> |= UNLOCK_BLOCKED

 rcu_read_unlock()

Ed can simply trigger this 'easy' because invoke_softirq() immediately
does a ttwu() of ksoftirqd/# instead of doing the in-place softirq stuff
first, but even without that the above happens.

Cure this by also excluding softirqs from the
rcu_read_unlock_special() handler and ensuring the force_irqthreads
ksoftirqd/# wakeup is done from full softirq context.

[ Alternatively, delaying the ->rcu_read_lock_nesting decrement
  until after the special handling would make the thing more robust
  in the face of interrupts as well.  And there is a separate patch

13 years agorcu: protect __rcu_read_unlock() against scheduler-using irq handlers
Paul E. McKenney [Mon, 18 Jul 2011 04:14:35 +0000 (21:14 -0700)]
rcu: protect __rcu_read_unlock() against scheduler-using irq handlers

The addition of RCU read-side critical sections within runqueue and
priority-inheritance lock critical sections introduced some deadlock
cycles, for example, involving interrupts from __rcu_read_unlock()
where the interrupt handlers call wake_up().  This situation can cause
the instance of __rcu_read_unlock() invoked from interrupt to do some
of the processing that would otherwise have been carried out by the
task-level instance of __rcu_read_unlock().  When the interrupt-level
instance of __rcu_read_unlock() is called with a scheduler lock held
from interrupt-entry/exit situations where in_irq() returns false,
deadlock can result.

This commit resolves these deadlocks by using negative values of
the per-task ->rcu_read_lock_nesting counter to indicate that an
instance of __rcu_read_unlock() is in flight, which in turn prevents
instances from interrupt handlers from doing any special processing.
This patch is inspired by Steven Rostedt's earlier patch that similarly
made __rcu_read_unlock() guard against interrupt-mediated recursion
(see https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/7/15/326), but this commit refines
Steven's approach to avoid the need for preemption disabling on the
__rcu_read_unlock() fastpath and to also avoid the need for manipulating
a separate per-CPU variable.

This patch avoids need for preempt_disable() by instead using negative
values of the per-task ->rcu_read_lock_nesting counter.  Note that nested
rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() pairs are still permitted, but they will
never see ->rcu_read_lock_nesting go to zero, and will therefore never
invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(), thus preventing them from seeing the
RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED bit should it be set in ->rcu_read_unlock_special.
This patch also adds a check for ->rcu_read_unlock_special being negative
in rcu_check_callbacks(), thus preventing the RCU_READ_UNLOCK_NEED_QS
bit from being set should a scheduling-clock interrupt occur while
__rcu_read_unlock() is exiting from an outermost RCU read-side critical
section.

Of course, __rcu_read_unlock() can be preempted during the time that
->rcu_read_lock_nesting is negative.  This could result in the setting
of the RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED bit after __rcu_read_unlock() checks it,
and would also result it this task being queued on the corresponding
rcu_node structure's blkd_tasks list.  Therefore, some later RCU read-side
critical section would enter rcu_read_unlock_special() to clean up --
which could result in deadlock if that critical section happened to be in
the scheduler where the runqueue or priority-inheritance locks were held.

This situation is dealt with by making rcu_preempt_note_context_switch()
check for negative ->rcu_read_lock_nesting, thus refraining from
queuing the task (and from setting RCU_READ_UNLOCK_BLOCKED) if we are
already exiting from the outermost RCU read-side critical section (in
other words, we really are no longer actually in that RCU read-side
critical section).  In addition, rcu_preempt_note_context_switch()
invokes rcu_read_unlock_special() to carry out the cleanup in this case,
which clears out the ->rcu_read_unlock_special bits and dequeues the task
(if necessary), in turn avoiding needless delay of the current RCU grace

lock if the prior RCU read-side critical section has ever had either

sched: Avoid creating superfluous NUMA domains on non-NUMA systems

When creating sched_domains, stop when we've covered the entire
target span instead of continuing to create domains, only to
later find they're redundant and throw them away again.

This avoids single node systems from touching funny NUMA
sched_domain creation code and reduces the risks of the new
SD_OVERLAP code.

13 years agosched: Allow for overlapping sched_domain spans
Peter Zijlstra [Fri, 15 Jul 2011 08:35:52 +0000 (10:35 +0200)]
sched: Allow for overlapping sched_domain spans

Allow for sched_domain spans that overlap by giving such domains their
own sched_group list instead of sharing the sched_groups amongst
each-other.

This is needed for machines with more than 16 nodes, because
sched_domain_node_span() will generate a node mask from the
16 nearest nodes without regard if these masks have any overlap.

Currently sched_domains have a sched_group that maps to their child
sched_domain span, and since there is no overlap we share the
sched_group between the sched_domains of the various CPUs. If however
there is overlap, we would need to link the sched_group list in
different ways for each cpu, and hence sharing isn't possible.

In order to solve this, allocate private sched_groups for each CPU's
sched_domain but have the sched_groups share a sched_group_power
structure such that we can uniquely track the power.

vmscan: fix a livelock in kswapd

I'm running a workload which triggers a lot of swap in a machine with 4
nodes.  After I kill the workload, I found a kswapd livelock.  Sometimes
kswapd3 or kswapd2 are keeping running and I can't access filesystem,
but most memory is free.

This looks like a regression since commit 08951e545918c159 ("mm: vmscan:
correct check for kswapd sleeping in sleeping_prematurely").

Node 2 and 3 have only ZONE_NORMAL, but balance_pgdat() will return 0
for classzone_idx.  The reason is end_zone in balance_pgdat() is 0 by
default, if all zones have watermark ok, end_zone will keep 0.

Later sleeping_prematurely() always returns true.  Because this is an
order 3 wakeup, and if classzone_idx is 0, both balanced_pages and
present_pages in pgdat_balanced() are 0.  We add a special case here.
If a zone has no page, we think it's balanced.  This fixes the livelock.

13 years agofs/libfs.c: fix simple_attr_write() on 32bit machines

fs/libfs.c: fix simple_attr_write() on 32bit machines

Assume that /sys/kernel/debug/dummy64 is debugfs file created by
debugfs_create_x64().

# cd /sys/kernel/debug
# echo 0x1234567812345678 > dummy64

0x0000000012345678

# echo 0x80000000 > dummy64

0xffffffff80000000

A value larger than INT_MAX cannot be written to the debugfs file created
by debugfs_create_u64 or debugfs_create_x64 on 32bit machine.  Because
simple_attr_write() uses simple_strtol() for the conversion.

To fix this, use simple_strtoll() instead.
