commit e4f387d8db upstream.
Unpaired calling of probe_hcall_entry and probe_hcall_exit might happen
as following, which could cause incorrect preempt count.
__trace_hcall_entry => trace_hcall_entry -> probe_hcall_entry =>
get_cpu_var => preempt_disable
__trace_hcall_exit => trace_hcall_exit -> probe_hcall_exit =>
put_cpu_var => preempt_enable
where:
A => B and A -> B means A calls B, but
=> means A will call B through function name, and B will definitely be
called.
-> means A will call B through function pointer, so B might not be
called if the function pointer is not set.
So error happens when only one of probe_hcall_entry and probe_hcall_exit
get called during a hcall.
This patch tries to move the preempt count operations from
probe_hcall_entry and probe_hcall_exit to its callers.

commit 37fb9a0231 upstream.
When re-enabling interrupts we have code to handle edge sensitive
decrementers by resetting the decrementer to 1 whenever it is negative.
If interrupts were disabled long enough that the decrementer wrapped to
positive we do nothing. This means interrupts can be delayed for a long
time until it finally goes negative again.
While we hope interrupts are never be disabled long enough for the
decrementer to go positive, we have a very good test team that can
drive any kernel into the ground. The softlockup data we get back
from these fails could be seconds in the future, completely missing
the cause of the lockup.
We already keep track of the timebase of the next event so use that
to work out if we should trigger a decrementer exception.

commit 1bb0b7d215 upstream.
When using a >8bpp framebuffer, offb advertises truecolor, not directcolor,
and doesn't touch the color map even if it has a corresponding access method
for the real hardware.
Thus it needs to set the pseudo-palette with all 3 components of the color,
like other truecolor framebuffers, not with copies of the color index like
a directcolor framebuffer would do.
This went unnoticed for a long time because it's pretty hard to get offb
to kick in with anything but 8bpp (old BootX under MacOS will do that and
qemu does it).

commit eea915bb0d upstream.
This oops was reported recently:
firmware_loading_store+0xf9/0x17b
dev_attr_store+0x20/0x22
sysfs_write_file+0x101/0x134
vfs_write+0xac/0xf3

system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
The complete backtrace was unfortunately not captured, but details can be found
here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769920
The cause is fairly clear.
Its caused by the fact that firmware_loading_store has a case 0 in its
switch statement that reads and writes the fw_priv->fw poniter without the
protection of the fw_lock mutex. since there is a window between the time that
_request_firmware sets fw_priv->fw to NULL and the time the corresponding sysfs
file is unregistered, its possible for a user space application to race in, and
write a zero to the loading file, causing a NULL dereference in
firmware_loading_store. Fix it by extending the protection of the fw_lock mutex
to cover all of the firware_loading_store function.

commit 8a88951b58 upstream.
This is the temporary simple fix for 3.2, we need more changes in this
area.
1. do_signal_stop() assumes that the running untraced thread in the
stopped thread group is not possible. This was our goal but it is
not yet achieved: a stopped-but-resumed tracee can clone the running
thread which can initiate another group-stop.
Remove WARN_ON_ONCE(!current->ptrace).
2. A new thread always starts with ->jobctl = 0. If it is auto-attached
and this group is stopped, __ptrace_unlink() sets JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING
but JOBCTL_STOP_SIGMASK part is zero, this triggers WANR_ON(!signr)
in do_jobctl_trap() if another debugger attaches.
Change __ptrace_unlink() to set the artificial SIGSTOP for report.
Alternatively we could change ptrace_init_task() to copy signr from
current, but this means we can copy it for no reason and hide the
possible similar problems.

commit 50b8d25748 upstream.
Test-case:
int main(void)
{
int pid, status;
pid = fork();
if (!pid) {
for (;;) {
if (!fork())
return 0;
if (waitpid(-1, &status, 0) < 0) {
printf("ERR!! wait: %m\n");
return 0;
}
}
}
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0,0) == 0);
assert(waitpid(-1, NULL, 0) == pid);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0,
PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK) == 0);
do {
ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, 0);
pid = waitpid(-1, NULL, 0);
} while (pid > 0);
return 1;
}
It fails because ->real_parent sees its child in EXIT_DEAD state
while the tracer is going to change the state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE
in wait_task_zombie().
The offending commit is 823b018e which moved the EXIT_DEAD check,
but in fact we should not blame it. The original code was not
correct as well because it didn't take ptrace_reparented() into
account and because we can't really trust ->ptrace.
This patch adds the additional check to close this particular
race but it doesn't solve the whole problem. We simply can't
rely on ->ptrace in this case, it can be cleared if the tracer
is multithreaded by the exiting ->parent.
I think we should kill EXIT_DEAD altogether, we should always
remove the soon-to-be-reaped child from ->children or at least
we should never do the DEAD->ZOMBIE transition. But this is too
complex for 3.2.

[ Upstream commit a76c0adf60 ]
When checking whether a DATA chunk fits into the estimated rwnd a
full sizeof(struct sk_buff) is added to the needed chunk size. This
quickly exhausts the available rwnd space and leads to packets being
sent which are much below the PMTU limit. This can lead to much worse
performance.
The reason for this behaviour was to avoid putting too much memory
pressure on the receiver. The concept is not completely irational
because a Linux receiver does in fact clone an skb for each DATA chunk
delivered. However, Linux also reserves half the available socket
buffer space for data structures therefore usage of it is already
accounted for.
When proposing to change this the last time it was noted that this
behaviour was introduced to solve a performance issue caused by rwnd
overusage in combination with small DATA chunks.
Trying to reproduce this I found that with the sk_buff overhead removed,
the performance would improve significantly unless socket buffer limits
are increased.
The following numbers have been gathered using a patched iperf
supporting SCTP over a live 1 Gbit ethernet network. The -l option
was used to limit DATA chunk sizes. The numbers listed are based on
the average of 3 test runs each. Default values have been used for
sk_(r|w)mem.

to 0xffffffff.
This patch defines a max_autoclose (in seconds) for limiting the value
and exposes it through sysctl, with the following intentions.
1) Avoid overflowing autoclose * HZ.
2) Keep the default autoclose bound consistent across 32- and 64-bit
platforms (INT_MAX / HZ in this patch).
3) Keep the autoclose value consistent between setsockopt() and
getsockopt() calls.

Although we provide a proper way for a debugger to control whether

Luckily we can solve this problem without having to make debuggers
aware of the issue. Across system calls, several registers are
considered volatile and can be safely clobbered.
Therefore we use the pt_regs save area of one of those registers, %g6,
as a place to save and restore orig_i0.
Debuggers transparently will do the right thing because they save and

I previously understood this to mean merely that a successful setconf()

commit e6780f7243 upstream.
It was found (by Sasha) that if you use a futex located in the gate
area we get stuck in an uninterruptible infinite loop, much like the
ZERO_PAGE issue.
While looking at this problem, PeterZ realized you'll get into similar
trouble when hitting any install_special_pages() mapping. And are there
still drivers setting up their own special mmaps without page->mapping,
and without special VM or pte flags to make get_user_pages fail?
In most cases, if page->mapping is NULL, we do not need to retry at all:
Linus points out that even /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches poses no problem,
because it ends up using remove_mapping(), which takes care not to
interfere when the page reference count is raised.
But there is still one case which does need a retry: if memory pressure
called shmem_writepage in between get_user_pages_fast dropping page
table lock and our acquiring page lock, then the page gets switched from
filecache to swapcache (and ->mapping set to NULL) whatever the refcount.
Fault it back in to get the page->mapping needed for key->shared.inode.
