Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) There was a simplification in the ipv6 ndisc packet sending attempted here, which avoided using memory accounting on the per-netns ndisc socket for sending NDISC packets. It did fix some important issues, but it causes regressions so it gets reverted here too. Specifically, the problem with this change is that the IPV6 output path really depends upon there being a valid skb->sk attached. The reason we want to do this change in some form when we figure out how to do it right, is that if a device goes down the ndisc_sk socket send queue will fill up and block NDISC packets that we want to send to other devices too. That's really bad behavior. Hopefully Thomas can come up with a better version of this change. 2) Fix a severe TCP performance regression by reverting a change made to dev_pick_tx() quite some time ago. From Eric Dumazet. 3) TIPC returns wrongly signed error codes, fix from Erik Hugne. 4) Fix OOPS when doing IPSEC over ipv4 tunnels due to orphaning the skb->sk too early. Fix from Li Hongjun. 5) RAW ipv4 sockets can use the wrong routing key during lookup, from Chris Clark. 6) Similar to #1 revert an older change that tried to use plain alloc_skb() for SYN/ACK TCP packets, this broke the netfilter owner mark which needs to see the skb->sk for such frames. From Phil Oester. 7) BNX2x driver bug fixes from Ariel Elior and Yuval Mintz, specifically in the handling of virtual functions. 8) IPSEC path error propagations to sockets is not done properly when we have v4 in v6, and v6 in v4 type rules. Fix from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 9) Fix missing channel context release in mac80211, from Johannes Berg. 10) Fix network namespace handing wrt. SCM_RIGHTS, from Andy Lutomirski. 11) Fix usage of bogus NAPI weight in jme, netxen, and ps3_gelic drivers. From Michal Schmidt. 12) Hopefully a complete and correct fix for the genetlink dump locking and module reference counting. From Pravin B Shelar. 13) sk_busy_loop() must do a cpu_relax(), from Eliezer Tamir. 14) Fix handling of timestamp offset when restoring a snapshotted TCP socket.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup Pull cgroup fix from Tejun Heo: "During the percpu reference counting update which was merged during v3.11-rc1, the cgroup destruction path was updated so that a cgroup in the process of dying may linger on the children list, which was necessary as the cgroup should still be included in child/descendant iteration while percpu ref is being killed. Unfortunately, I forgot to update cgroup destruction path accordingly and cgroup destruction may fail spuriously with -EBUSY due to lingering dying children even when there's no live child left - e.g. "rmdir parent/child parent" will usually fail. This can be easily fixed by iterating through the children list to verify that there's no live child left. While this is very late in the release cycle, this bug is very visible to userland and I believe the fix is relatively safe. Thanks Hugh for spotting and providing fix for the issue" * 'for-3.11-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: cgroup: fix rmdir EBUSY regression in 3.11
2013-08-29cgroup: fix rmdir EBUSY regression in 3.11Hugh Dickins
On 3.11-rc we are seeing cgroup directories left behind when they should have been removed. Here's a trivial reproducer: cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory mkdir parent parent/child; rmdir parent/child parent rmdir: failed to remove `parent': Device or resource busy It's because cgroup_destroy_locked() (step 1 of destruction) leaves cgroup on parent's children list, letting cgroup_offline_fn() (step 2 of destruction) remove it; but step 2 is run by work queue, which may not yet have removed the children when parent destruction checks the list. Fix that by checking through a non-empty list of children: if every one of them has already been marked CGRP_DEAD, then it's safe to proceed: those children are invisible to userspace, and should not obstruct rmdir. (I didn't see any reason to keep the cgrp->children checks under the unrelated css_set_lock, so moved them out.) tj: Flattened nested ifs a bit and updated comment so that it's correct on both for-3.11-fixes and for-3.12.

2013-08-29workqueue: cond_resched() after processing each work itemTejun Heo
If !PREEMPT, a kworker running work items back to back can hog CPU. This becomes dangerous when a self-requeueing work item which is waiting for something to happen races against stop_machine. Such self-requeueing work item would requeue itself indefinitely hogging the kworker and CPU it's running on while stop_machine would wait for that CPU to enter stop_machine while preventing anything else from happening on all other CPUs. The two would deadlock. Jamie Liu reports that this deadlock scenario exists around scsi_requeue_run_queue() and libata port multiplier support, where one port may exclude command processing from other ports. With the right timing, scsi_requeue_run_queue() can end up requeueing itself trying to execute an IO which is asked to be retried while another device has an exclusive access, which in turn can't make forward progress due to stop_machine. Fix it by invoking cond_resched() after executing each work item.

Fix inadvertent breakage in the clone syscall ABI for Microblaze that was introduced in commit f3268edbe6fe ("microblaze: switch to generic fork/vfork/clone"). The Microblaze syscall ABI for clone takes the parent tid address in the 4th argument; the third argument slot is used for the stack size. The incorrectly-used CLONE_BACKWARDS type assigned parent tid to the 3rd slot. This commit restores the original ABI so that existing userspace libc code will work correctly.

2013-08-14PM / QoS: Fix workqueue deadlock when using pm_qos_update_request_timeout()Stephen Boyd
pm_qos_update_request_timeout() updates a qos and then schedules a delayed work item to bring the qos back down to the default after the timeout. When the work item runs, pm_qos_work_fn() will call pm_qos_update_request() and deadlock because it tries to cancel itself via cancel_delayed_work_sync(). Future callers of that qos will also hang waiting to cancel the work that is canceling itself. Let's extract the little bit of code that does the real work of pm_qos_update_request() and call it from the work function so that we don't deadlock. Before ed1ac6e (PM: don't use [delayed_]work_pending()) this didn't happen because the work function wouldn't try to cancel itself.

2013-08-13sched: fix the theoretical signal_wake_up() vs schedule() raceOleg Nesterov
This is only theoretical, but after try_to_wake_up(p) was changed to check p->state under p->pi_lock the code like __set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE); schedule(); can miss a signal. This is the special case of wait-for-condition, it relies on try_to_wake_up/schedule interaction and thus it does not need mb() between __set_current_state() and if(signal_pending). However, this __set_current_state() can move into the critical section protected by rq->lock, now that try_to_wake_up() takes another lock we need to ensure that it can't be reordered with "if (signal_pending(current))" check inside that section. The patch is actually one-liner, it simply adds smp_wmb() before spin_lock_irq(rq->lock). This is what try_to_wake_up() already does by the same reason. We turn this wmb() into the new helper, smp_mb__before_spinlock(), for better documentation and to allow the architectures to change the default implementation. While at it, kill smp_mb__after_lock(), it has no callers. Perhaps we can also add smp_mb__before/after_spinunlock() for prepare_to_wait().

It's with the return of braille_register_console(). As anything other than NULL is considered a failure. But for those of us that have CONFIG_A11Y_BRAILLE_CONSOLE set but do not define a "brl" or "brl=" on the command line, we still may want a console that those with sight can still use.

unshare_userns(new_cred) does *new_cred = prepare_creds() before create_user_ns() which can fail. However, the caller expects that it doesn't need to take care of new_cred if unshare_userns() fails. We could change the single caller, sys_unshare(), but I think it would be more clean to avoid the side effects on failure, so with this patch unshare_userns() does put_cred() itself and initializes *new_cred only if create_user_ns() succeeeds.

2013-08-02tracing: Fix fields of struct trace_iterator that are zeroed by mistakeAndrew Vagin
tracing_read_pipe zeros all fields bellow "seq". The declaration contains a comment about that, but it doesn't help. The first field is "snapshot", it's true when current open file is snapshot. Looks obvious, that it should not be zeroed. The second field is "started". It was converted from cpumask_t to cpumask_var_t (v2.6.28-4983-g4462344), in other words it was converted from cpumask to pointer on cpumask. Currently the reference on "started" memory is lost after the first read from tracing_read_pipe and a proper object will never be freed. The "started" is never dereferenced for trace_pipe, because trace_pipe can't have the TRACE_FILE_ANNOTATE options.

2013-08-01tracing/uprobes: Fail to unregister if probe event files are in useSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Uprobes suffer the same problem that kprobes have. There's a race between writing to the "enable" file and removing the probe. The probe checks for it being in use and if it is not, goes about deleting the probe and the event that represents it. But the problem with that is, after it checks if it is in use it can be enabled, and the deletion of the event (access to the probe) will fail, as it is in use. But the uprobe will still be deleted. This is a problem as the event can reference the uprobe that was deleted. The fix is to remove the event first, and check to make sure the event removal succeeds. Then it is safe to remove the probe. When the event exists, either ftrace or perf can enable the probe and prevent the event from being removed.

$echo '0' > /sys/bus/workqueue/devices/xxx/numa $cat /sys/bus/workqueue/devices/xxx/numa I got 1. It should be 0, the reason is copy_workqueue_attrs() called in apply_workqueue_attrs() doesn't copy no_numa field. Fix it by making copy_workqueue_attrs() copy ->no_numa too. This would also make get_unbound_pool() set a pool's ->no_numa attribute according to the workqueue attributes used when the pool was created. While harmelss, as ->no_numa isn't a pool attribute, this is a bit confusing. Clear it explicitly. tj: Updated description and comments a bit.

2013-07-31tracing/kprobes: Fail to unregister if probe event files are in useSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
When a probe is being removed, it cleans up the event files that correspond to the probe. But there is a race between writing to one of these files and deleting the probe.

2013-07-31tracing: Add comment to describe special break case in probe_remove_event_call()Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)
The "break" used in the do_for_each_event_file() is used as an optimization as the loop is really a double loop. The loop searches all event files for each trace_array. There's only one matching event file per trace_array and after we find the event file for the trace_array, the break is used to jump to the next trace_array and start the search there. As this is not a standard way of using "break" in C code, it requires a comment right before the break to let people know what is going on. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
2013-07-31tracing: trace_remove_event_call() should fail if call/file is in useOleg Nesterov
Change trace_remove_event_call(call) to return the error if this call is active. This is what the callers assume but can't verify outside of the tracing locks. Both trace_kprobe.c/trace_uprobe.c need the additional changes, unregister_trace_probe() should abort if trace_remove_event_call() fails. The caller is going to free this call/file so we must ensure that nobody can use them after trace_remove_event_call() succeeds. debugfs should be fine after the previous changes and event_remove() does TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER, but still there are 2 reasons why we need the additional checks: - There could be a perf_event(s) attached to this tp_event, so the patch checks ->perf_refcount. - TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER can be suppressed by FTRACE_EVENT_FL_SOFT_MODE, so we simply check FTRACE_EVENT_FL_ENABLED protected by event_mutex.

It was actually more than that. When functions are being traced, there's a table of all functions that have a ref count of the number of active tracers attached to that function. When a function trace callback is registered to a function, the function's record ref count is incremented. When it is unregistered, the function's record ref count is decremented. If an inconsistency is detected (ref count goes below zero) the above warning is shown and the function tracing is permanently disabled until reboot. The ftrace callback ops holds a hash of functions that it filters on (and/or filters off). If the hash is empty, the default means to filter all functions (for the filter_hash) or to disable no functions (for the notrace_hash). When a module is unloaded, it frees the function records that represent the module functions. These records exist on their own pages, that is function records for one module will not exist on the same page as function records for other modules or even the core kernel. Now when a module unloads, the records that represents its functions are freed. When the module is loaded again, the records are recreated with a default ref count of zero (unless there's a callback that traces all functions, then they will also be traced, and the ref count will be incremented). The problem is that if an ftrace callback hash includes functions of the module being unloaded, those hash entries will not be removed. If the module is reloaded in the same location, the hash entries still point to the functions of the module but the module's ref counts do not reflect that. With the help of Steve and Joern, we found a reproducer: Using uinput module and uinput_release function. cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing modprobe uinput echo uinput_release > set_ftrace_filter echo function > current_tracer rmmod uinput modprobe uinput # check /proc/modules to see if loaded in same addr, otherwise try again echo nop > current_tracer [BOOM] The above loads the uinput module, which creates a table of functions that can be traced within the module. We add uinput_release to the filter_hash to trace just that function. Enable function tracincg, which increments the ref count of the record associated to uinput_release. Remove uinput, which frees the records including the one that represents uinput_release. Load the uinput module again (and make sure it's at the same address). This recreates the function records all with a ref count of zero, including uinput_release. Disable function tracing, which will decrement the ref count for uinput_release which is now zero because of the module removal and reload, and we have a mismatch (below zero ref count). The solution is to check all currently tracing ftrace callbacks to see if any are tracing any of the module's functions when a module is loaded (it already does that with callbacks that trace all functions). If a callback happens to have a module function being traced, it increments that records ref count and starts tracing that function. There may be a strange side effect with this, where tracing module functions on unload and then reloading a new module may have that new module's functions being traced. This may be something that confuses the user, but it's not a big deal. Another approach is to disable all callback hashes on module unload, but this leaves some ftrace callbacks that may not be registered, but can still have hashes tracing the module's function where ftrace doesn't know about it. That situation can cause the same bug. This solution solves that case too. Another benefit of this solution, is it is possible to trace a module's function on unload and load.

2013-07-30freezer: set PF_SUSPEND_TASK flag on tasks that call freeze_processesColin Cross
Calling freeze_processes sets a global flag that will cause any process that calls try_to_freeze to enter the refrigerator. It skips sending a signal to the current task, but if the current task ever hits try_to_freeze, all threads will be frozen and the system will deadlock. Set a new flag, PF_SUSPEND_TASK, on the task that calls freeze_processes. The flag notifies the freezer that the thread is involved in suspend and should not be frozen. Also add a WARN_ON in thaw_processes if the caller does not have the PF_SUSPEND_TASK flag set to catch if a different task calls thaw_processes than the one that called freeze_processes, leaving a task with PF_SUSPEND_TASK permanently set on it. Threads that spawn off a task with PF_SUSPEND_TASK set (which swsusp does) will also have PF_SUSPEND_TASK set, preventing them from freezing while they are helping with suspend, but they need to be dead by the time suspend is triggered, otherwise they may run when userspace is expected to be frozen. Add a WARN_ON in thaw_processes if more than one thread has the PF_SUSPEND_TASK flag set.
