Beniamino noticed a bug that an invalid DT file for the mediatek interrupt
polarity extension will cause kernel oops.
The reason is that the interrupt polarity support for mediatek chips
merely checks for NULL pointer instead of a casted error return
value in mtk_sysirq_of_init() so any other casted error value passes
the NULL pointer check and causes a kernel panic when dereferenced.
Use IS_ERR() and return the error value via PTR_ERR().

Commit 5195c14c8b ("netfilter: conntrack: fix race in
__nf_conntrack_confirm against get_next_corpse") aimed to resolve the
race condition between the confirmation (packet path) and the flush
command (from control plane). However, it introduced a crash when
several packets race to add a new conntrack, which seems easier to
reproduce when nf_queue is in place.
Fix this race, in __nf_conntrack_confirm(), by removing the CT
from unconfirmed list before checking the DYING bit. In case
race occured, re-add the CT to the dying list
This patch also changes the verdict from NF_ACCEPT to NF_DROP when
we lose race. Basically, the confirmation happens for the first packet
that we see in a flow. If you just invoked conntrack -F once (which
should be the common case), then this is likely to be the first packet
of the flow (unless you already called flush anytime soon in the past).
This should be hard to trigger, but better drop this packet, otherwise
we leave things in inconsistent state since the destination will likely
reply to this packet, but it will find no conntrack, unless the origin
retransmits.
The change of the verdict has been discussed in:

Jay Foad reports that the address sanitizer test (asan) sometimes gets
confused by a stack pointer that ends up being outside the stack vma
that is reported by /proc/maps.
This happens due to an interaction between RLIMIT_STACK and the guard
page: when we do the guard page check, we ignore the potential error
from the stack expansion, which effectively results in a missing guard
page, since the expected stack expansion won't have been done.
And since /proc/maps explicitly ignores the guard page (commit
d7824370e2: "mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard
page"), the stack pointer ends up being outside the reported stack area.
This is the minimal patch: it just propagates the error. It also
effectively makes the guard page part of the stack limit, which in turn
measn that the actual real stack is one page less than the stack limit.
Let's see if anybody notices. We could teach acct_stack_growth() to
allow an extra page for a grow-up/grow-down stack in the rlimit test,
but I don't want to add more complexity if it isn't needed.

Subtle race conditions can result if a CPU stays in dyntick-idle mode
long enough for the ->gpnum and ->completed fields to wrap. For
example, consider the following sequence of events:
o CPU 1 encounters a quiescent state while waiting for grace period
5 to complete, but then enters dyntick-idle mode.
o While CPU 1 is in dyntick-idle mode, the grace-period counters
wrap around so that the grace period number is now 4.
o Just as CPU 1 exits dyntick-idle mode, grace period 4 completes
and grace period 5 begins.
o The quiescent state that CPU 1 passed through during the old
grace period 5 looks like it applies to the new grace period
5. Therefore, the new grace period 5 completes without CPU 1
having passed through a quiescent state.
This could clearly be a fatal surprise to any long-running RCU read-side
critical section that happened to be running on CPU 1 at the time. At one
time, this was not a problem, given that it takes significant time for
the grace-period counters to overflow even on 32-bit systems. However,
with the advent of NO_HZ_FULL and SMP embedded systems, arbitrarily long
idle periods are now becoming quite feasible. It is therefore time to
close this race.
This commit therefore avoids this race condition by having the
quiescent-state forcing code detect when a CPU is falling too far
behind, and setting a new rcu_data field ->gpwrap when this happens.
Whenever this new ->gpwrap field is set, the CPU's ->gpnum and ->completed
fields are known to be untrustworthy, and can be ignored, along with
any associated quiescent states.

The current RCU CPU stall warning code will print "Stall ended before
state dump start" any time that the stall-warning code is triggered on
a CPU that has already reported a quiescent state for the current grace
period and if all quiescent states have been reported for the current
grace period. However, a true stall can result in these symptoms, for
example, by preventing RCU's grace-period kthreads from ever running
This commit therefore checks for this condition, reporting the end of
the stall only if one of the grace-period counters has actually advanced.
Otherwise, it reports the last time that the grace-period kthread made
meaningful progress. (In normal situations, the grace-period kthread
should make meaningful progress at least every jiffies_till_next_fqs
jiffies.)

The rcu_cleanup_dead_cpu() function (called after a CPU has gone

was probably at least one synchronize_rcu() between the time the CPU
went offline and the CPU_DEAD notifier, and this would have detected
the CPU's offline state via quiescent-state forcing. However, the plan

When the last CPU associated with a given leaf rcu_node structure
goes offline, something must be done about the tasks queued on that
rcu_node structure. Each of these tasks has been preempted on one of
the leaf rcu_node structure's CPUs while in an RCU read-side critical
section that it have not yet exited. Handling these tasks is the job of
rcu_preempt_offline_tasks(), which migrates them from the leaf rcu_node
structure to the root rcu_node structure.
Unfortunately, this migration has to be done one task at a time because
each tasks allegiance must be shifted from the original leaf rcu_node to
the root, so that future attempts to deal with these tasks will acquire
the root rcu_node structure's ->lock rather than that of the leaf.
Worse yet, this migration must be done with interrupts disabled, which
is not so good for realtime response, especially given that there is
no bound on the number of tasks on a given rcu_node structure's list.
(OK, OK, there is a bound, it is just that it is unreasonably large,
especially on 64-bit systems.) This was not considered a problem back
when rcu_preempt_offline_tasks() was first written because realtime
systems were assumed not to do CPU-hotplug operations while real-time
applications were running. This assumption has proved of dubious validity
given that people are starting to run multiple realtime applications
on a single SMP system and that it is common practice to offline then
online a CPU before starting its real-time application in order to clear
extraneous processing off of that CPU. So we now need CPU hotplug
operations to avoid undue latencies.
This commit therefore avoids migrating these tasks, instead letting
them be dequeued one by one from the original leaf rcu_node structure
by rcu_read_unlock_special(). This means that the clearing of bits
from the upper-level rcu_node structures must be deferred until the
last such task has been dequeued, because otherwise subsequent grace
periods won't wait on them. This commit has the beneficial side effect
of simplifying the CPU-hotplug code for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, especially in
CONFIG_RCU_BOOST builds.

The rcu_barrier() no-callbacks check for no-CBs CPUs has race conditions.
It checks a given CPU's lists of callbacks, and if all three no-CBs lists
are empty, ignores that CPU. However, these three lists could potentially
be empty even when callbacks are present if the check executed just as
the callbacks were being moved from one list to another. It turns out
that recent versions of rcutorture can spot this race.
This commit plugs this hole by consolidating the per-list counts of
no-CBs callbacks into a single count, which is incremented before
the corresponding callback is posted and after it is invoked. Then
rcu_barrier() checks this single count to reliably determine whether
the corresponding CPU has no-CBs callbacks.

"next" pointer of hlist_node structure through hlist_next_rcu() macro
when iterating over a hlist with hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh().
By the way, this commit also resolves the same error appearing in
hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu().

For RCU in UP, context-switch = QS = GP, thus we can force a
context-switch when any call_rcu_[bh|sched]() is happened on idle_task.
After doing so, rcu_idle/irq_enter/exit() are useless, so we can simply
make these functions empty.
More important, this change does not change the functionality logically.
Note: raise_softirq(RCU_SOFTIRQ)/rcu_sched_qs() in rcu_idle_enter() and
outmost rcu_irq_exit() will have to wake up the ksoftirqd
(due to in_interrupt() == 0).
Before this patch After this patch:
call_rcu_sched() in idle; call_rcu_sched() in idle
set resched
do other stuffs; do other stuffs
outmost rcu_irq_exit() outmost rcu_irq_exit() (empty function)
(or rcu_idle_enter()) (or rcu_idle_enter(), also empty function)
start to resched. (see above)
rcu_sched_qs() rcu_sched_qs()
QS,and GP and advance cb QS,and GP and advance cb
wake up the ksoftirqd wake up the ksoftirqd
set resched
resched to ksoftirqd (or other) resched to ksoftirqd (or other)
These two code patches are almost the same.
