mm: remove gup_flags FOLL_WRITE games from __get_user_pages()

2016-10-20T08:49:58+00:00

commit 19be0eaffa3ac7d8eb6784ad9bdbc7d67ed8e619 upstream. This is an ancient bug that was actually attempted to be fixed once (badly) by me eleven years ago in commit 4ceb5db9757a ("Fix get_user_pages() race for write access") but that was then undone due to problems on s390 by commit f33ea7f404e5 ("fix get_user_pages bug"). In the meantime, the s390 situation has long been fixed, and we can now fix it by checking the pte_dirty() bit properly (and do it better). The s390 dirty bit was implemented in abf09bed3cce ("s390/mm: implement software dirty bits") which made it into v3.9. Earlier kernels will have to look at the page state itself. Also, the VM has become more scalable, and what used a purely theoretical race back then has become easier to trigger. To fix it, we introduce a new internal FOLL_COW flag to mark the "yes, we already did a COW" rather than play racy games with FOLL_WRITE that is very fundamental, and then use the pte dirty flag to validate that the FOLL_COW flag is still valid.

mfd: 88pm80x: Double shifting bug in suspend/resume

2016-10-17T07:46:19+00:00

commit 9a6dc644512fd083400a96ac4a035ac154fe6b8d upstream. set_bit() and clear_bit() take the bit number so this code is really doing "1 << (1 << irq)" which is a double shift bug. It's done consistently so it won't cause a problem unless "irq" is more than 4.

can: dev: fix deadlock reported after bus-off

2016-10-07T08:03:57+00:00

commit 9abefcb1aaa58b9d5aa40a8bb12c87d02415e4c8 upstream. A timer was used to restart after the bus-off state, leading to a relatively large can_restart() executed in an interrupt context, which in turn sets up pinctrl. When this happens during system boot, there is a high probability of grabbing the pinctrl_list_mutex, which is locked already by the probe() of other device, making the kernel suspect a deadlock condition [1]. To resolve this issue, the restart_timer is replaced by a delayed work.

fix fault_in_multipages_...() on architectures with no-op access_ok()

2016-10-06T06:21:56+00:00

commit e23d4159b109167126e5bcd7f3775c95de7fee47 upstream. Switching iov_iter fault-in to multipages variants has exposed an old bug in underlying fault_in_multipages_...(); they break if the range passed to them wraps around. Normally access_ok() done by callers will prevent such (and it's a guaranteed EFAULT - ERR_PTR() values fall into such a range and they should not point to any valid objects). However, on architectures where userland and kernel live in different MMU contexts (e.g. s390) access_ok() is a no-op and on those a range with a wraparound can reach fault_in_multipages_...(). Since any wraparound means EFAULT there, the fix is trivial - turn those while (uaddr <= end) ... into if (unlikely(uaddr > end)) return -EFAULT; do ... while (uaddr <= end); Reported-by: Jan Stancek Tested-by: Jan Stancek Signed-off-by: Al Viro Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby

bonding: Fix bonding crash

2016-09-29T09:14:10+00:00

[ Upstream commit 24b27fc4cdf9e10c5e79e5923b6b7c2c5c95096c ] Following few steps will crash kernel - (a) Create bonding master > modprobe bonding miimon=50 (b) Create macvlan bridge on eth2 > ip link add link eth2 dev mvl0 address aa:0:0:0:0:01 \ type macvlan (c) Now try adding eth2 into the bond > echo +eth2 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves Bonding does lots of things before checking if the device enslaved is busy or not. In this case when the notifier call-chain sends notifications, the bond_netdev_event() assumes that the rx_handler /rx_handler_data is registered while the bond_enslave() hasn't progressed far enough to register rx_handler for the new slave. This patch adds a rx_handler check that can be performed right at the beginning of the enslave code to avoid getting into this situation.

Input: i8042 - break load dependency between atkbd/psmouse and i8042

2016-09-21T11:40:10+00:00

commit 4097461897df91041382ff6fcd2bfa7ee6b2448c upstream. As explained in 1407814240-4275-1-git-send-email-decui@microsoft.com we have a hard load dependency between i8042 and atkbd which prevents keyboard from working on Gen2 Hyper-V VMs. > hyperv_keyboard invokes serio_interrupt(), which needs a valid serio > driver like atkbd.c. atkbd.c depends on libps2.c because it invokes > ps2_command(). libps2.c depends on i8042.c because it invokes > i8042_check_port_owner(). As a result, hyperv_keyboard actually > depends on i8042.c. > > For a Generation 2 Hyper-V VM (meaning no i8042 device emulated), if a > Linux VM (like Arch Linux) happens to configure CONFIG_SERIO_I8042=m > rather than =y, atkbd.ko can't load because i8042.ko can't load(due to > no i8042 device emulated) and finally hyperv_keyboard can't work and > the user can't input: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/39820 > (Ubuntu/RHEL/SUSE aren't affected since they use CONFIG_SERIO_I8042=y) To break the dependency we move away from using i8042_check_port_owner() and instead allow serio port owner specify a mutex that clients should use to serialize PS/2 command stream.

IB/mlx5: Fix post send fence logic

2016-08-19T07:51:22+00:00

commit c9b254955b9f8814966f5dabd34c39d0e0a2b437 upstream. If the caller specified IB_SEND_FENCE in the send flags of the work request and no previous work request stated that the successive one should be fenced, the work request would be executed without a fence. This could result in RDMA read or atomic operations failure due to a MR being invalidated. Fix this by adding the mlx5 enumeration for fencing RDMA/atomic operations and fix the logic to apply this.
