2010-12-09Un-inline get_pipe_info() helper functionLinus Torvalds
commit 72083646528d4887b920deb71b37e09bc7d227bb upstream. This avoids some include-file hell, and the function isn't really important enough to be inlined anyway.

2010-12-09Export 'get_pipe_info()' to other usersLinus Torvalds
commit c66fb347946ebdd5b10908866ecc9fa05ee2cf3d upstream. And in particular, use it in 'pipe_fcntl()'. The other pipe functions do not need to use the 'careful' version, since they are only ever called for things that are already known to be pipes. The normal read/write/ioctl functions are called through the file operations structures, so if a file isn't a pipe, they'd never get called. But pipe_fcntl() is special, and called directly from the generic fcntl code, and needs to use the same careful function that the splice code is using.

2010-12-09Rename 'pipe_info()' to 'get_pipe_info()'Linus Torvalds
commit 71993e62a47dabddf10302807d6aa260455503f4 upstream. .. and change it to take the 'file' pointer instead of an inode, since that's what all users want anyway. The renaming is preparatory to exporting it to other users. The old 'pipe_info()' name was too generic and is already used elsewhere, so before making the function public we need to use a more specific name.

2010-12-09nmi: fix clock comparator revalidationHeiko Carstens
commit e8129c642155616d9e2160a75f103e127c8c3708 upstream. On each machine check all registers are revalidated. The save area for the clock comparator however only contains the upper most seven bytes of the former contents, if valid. Therefore the machine check handler uses a store clock instruction to get the current time and writes that to the clock comparator register which in turn will generate an immediate timer interrupt. However within the lowcore the expected time of the next timer interrupt is stored. If the interrupt happens before that time the handler won't be called. In turn the clock comparator won't be reprogrammed and therefore the interrupt condition stays pending which causes an interrupt loop until the expected time is reached. On NOHZ machines this can result in unresponsive machines since the time of the next expected interrupted can be a couple of days in the future. To fix this just revalidate the clock comparator register with the expected value. In addition the special handling for udelay must be changed as well.

2010-12-09r8169: fix checksum brokenShan Wei
commit d5d3ebe3be5c5123f2d444e186717f45284151e2 upstream. If r8196 received packets with invalid sctp/igmp(not tcp, udp) checksum, r8196 set skb->ip_summed wit CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. This cause that upper protocol don't check checksum field. I am not family with r8196 driver. I try to guess the meaning of RxProtoIP and IPFail. RxProtoIP stands for received IPv4 packet that upper protocol is not tcp and udp. !(opts1 & IPFail) is true means that driver correctly to check checksum in IPv4 header. If it's right, I think we should not set ip_summed wit CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY for my sctp packets with invalid checksum. If it's not right, please tell me.

commit adea1ac7effbddbe60a9de6d63462bfe79289e59 upstream. While porting GRO to r8169, I found this driver has a bug in its rx path. All skbs given to network stack had their ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_NONE, while hardware said they had correct TCP/UDP checksums. The reason is driver sets skb->ip_summed on the original skb before the copy eventually done by copybreak. The fresh skb gets the ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE value, forcing network stack to recompute checksum, and preventing my GRO patch to work. Fix is to make the ip_summed setting after skb copy.

2010-12-09msp3400: fix mute audio regressionHans Verkuil
commit 0310871d8f71da4ad8643687fbc40f219a0dac4d upstream. The switch to the new control framework caused a regression where the audio was no longer unmuted after the carrier scan finished. The original code attempted to set the volume control to its current value in order to have the set-volume control code to be called that handles the volume and muting. However, the framework will not call that code unless the new volume value is different from the old. Instead we now call msp_s_ctrl directly. It is a bit of a hack: we really need a v4l2_ctrl_refresh_ctrl function for this (or something along those lines). Thanks to Andy Walls for bisecting this and to Shane Shrybman for reporting it!

This seems to need a tighter upper bound, since the calculation of total iov_size can overflow, resulting in a small sock_kmalloc() allocation. This would probably just result in walking off the heap and crashing when calling rds_rdma_pages() with a high count value.

commit 57fe93b374a6b8711995c2d466c502af9f3a08bb upstream. There is a possibility malicious users can get limited information about uninitialized stack mem array. Even if sk_run_filter() result is bound to packet length (0 .. 65535), we could imagine this can be used by hostile user. Initializing mem[] array, like Dan Rosenberg suggested in his patch is expensive since most filters dont even use this array. Its hard to make the filter validation in sk_chk_filter(), because of the jumps. This might be done later. In this patch, I use a bitmap (a single long var) so that only filters using mem[] loads/stores pay the price of added security checks. For other filters, additional cost is a single instruction.

2010-12-09vlan: Avoid hwaccel vlan packets when vid not used.Jesse Gross
[This patch applies only to 2.6.36 stable. The problem was introduced in that release and is already fixed by larger changes to the vlan code in 2.6.37.] Normally hardware accelerated vlan packets are quickly dropped if there is no corresponding vlan device configured. The one exception is promiscuous mode, where we allow all of these packets through so they can be picked up by tcpdump. However, this behavior causes a crash if we actually try to receive these packets. This fixes that crash by ignoring packets with vids not corresponding to a configured device in the vlan hwaccel routines and then dropping them before they get to consumers in the network stack.

2010-12-09OMAP3: DMA: Errata i541: sDMA FIFO draining does not finishPeter Ujfalusi
commit 0e4905c0199d683497833be60a428c784d7575b8 upstream. Implement the suggested workaround for OMAP3 regarding to sDMA draining issue, when the channel is disabled on the fly. This errata affects the following configuration: sDMA transfer is source synchronized Buffering is enabled SmartStandby is selected. The issue can be easily reproduced by creating overrun situation while recording audio. Either introduce load to the CPU: nice -19 arecord -D hw:0 -M -B 10000 -F 5000 -f dat > /dev/null & \ dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/null or suspending the arecord, and resuming it: arecord -D hw:0 -M -B 10000 -F 5000 -f dat > /dev/null CTRL+Z; fg; CTRL+Z; fg; ... In case of overrun audio stops DMA, and restarts it (without reseting the sDMA channel). When we hit this errata in stop case (sDMA drain did not complete), at the coming start the sDMA will not going to be operational (it is still draining). This leads to DMA stall condition. On OMAP3 we can recover with sDMA channel reset, it has been observed that by introducing unrelated sDMA activity might also help (reading from MMC for example). The same errata exists for OMAP2, where the suggestion is to disable the buffering to avoid this type of error. On OMAP3 the suggestion is to set sDMA to NoStandby before disabling the channel, and wait for the drain to finish, than configure sDMA to SmartStandby again.

2010-12-09omap: dma: Fix buffering disable bit setting for omap24xxJarkko Nikula
commit 3e57f1626b5febe5cc99aa6870377deef3ae03cc upstream. An errata workaround for omap24xx is not setting the buffering disable bit 25 what is the purpose but channel enable bit 7 instead. Background for this fix is the DMA stalling issue with ASoC omap-mcbsp driver. Peter Ujfalusi <peter.ujfalusi@nokia.com> has found an issue in recording that the DMA stall could happen if there were a buffer overrun detected by ALSA and the DMA was stopped and restarted due that. This problem is known to occur on both OMAP2420 and OMAP3. It can recover on OMAP3 after dma free, dma request and reconfiguration cycle. However, on OMAP2420 it seems that only way to recover is a reset. Problem was not visible before the commit c12abc0. That commit changed that the McBSP transmitter/receiver is released from reset only when needed. That is, only enabled McBSP transmitter without transmission was able to prevent this DMA stall problem in receiving side and underlying problem did not show up until now. McBSP transmitter itself seems to no be reason since DMA stall does not recover by enabling the transmission after stall. Debugging showed that there were a DMA write active during DMA stop time and it never completed even when restarting the DMA. Experimenting showed that the DMA buffering disable bit could be used to avoid stalling when using source synchronized transfers. However that could have performance hit and OMAP3 TRM states that buffering disable is not allowed for destination synchronized transfers so subsequent patch will implement a method to complete DMA writes when stopping. This patch is based on assumtion that complete lock-up on OMAP2420 is different but related problem. I don't have access to OMAP2420 errata but I believe this old workaround here is put for a reason but unfortunately a wrong bit was typed and problem showed up only now.

2010-12-09net: Limit socket I/O iovec total length to INT_MAX.David S. Miller
commit 8acfe468b0384e834a303f08ebc4953d72fb690a upstream. This helps protect us from overflow issues down in the individual protocol sendmsg/recvmsg handlers. Once we hit INT_MAX we truncate out the rest of the iovec by setting the iov_len members to zero. This works because: 1) For SOCK_STREAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET sockets, partial writes are allowed and the application will just continue with another write to send the rest of the data. 2) For datagram oriented sockets, where there must be a one-to-one correspondance between write() calls and packets on the wire, INT_MAX is going to be far larger than the packet size limit the protocol is going to check for and signal with -EMSGSIZE.

2010-12-09nohz/s390: fix arch_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpusHeiko Carstens
commit 398812159e328478ae49b4bd01f0d71efea96c39 upstream. This fixes the same problem as described in the patch "nohz: fix printk_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpus" for the arch_needs_cpu() primitive: arch_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu, will call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(). That function in turn will call arch_needs_cpu() in order to check if the local tick can be disabled. On offline cpus this function should naturally return 0 since regardless if the tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be dead short after. That is besides the fact that __cpu_disable() should already have made sure that no interrupts on the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway. In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued. If arch_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly they never expire and cause system hangs. This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() in case a cpu goes offline. This specific bug was indrocuded with 3c5d92a0 "nohz: Introduce arch_needs_cpu". In this case a cpu hotplug notifier is used to fix the issue in order to keep the normal/fast path small. All we need to do is to clear the condition that makes arch_needs_cpu() return 1 since it is just a performance improvement which is supposed to keep the local tick running for a short period if a cpu goes idle. Nothing special needs to be done except for clearing the condition.

2010-12-09wmi: use memcmp instead of strncmp to compare GUIDsThadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo
commit 8b14d7b22c61f17ccb869e0047d9df6dd9f50a9f upstream. While looking for the duplicates in /sys/class/wmi/, I couldn't find them. The code that looks for duplicates uses strncmp in a binary GUID, which may contain zero bytes. The right function is memcmp, which is also used in another section of wmi code. It was finding 49142400-C6A3-40FA-BADB-8A2652834100 as a duplicate of 39142400-C6A3-40FA-BADB-8A2652834100. Since the first byte is the fourth printed, they were found as equal by strncmp.

2010-12-09PM / Hibernate: Fix memory corruption related to swapRafael J. Wysocki
commit c9e664f1fdf34aa8cede047b206deaa8f1945af0 upstream. There is a problem that swap pages allocated before the creation of a hibernation image can be released and used for storing the contents of different memory pages while the image is being saved. Since the kernel stored in the image doesn't know of that, it causes memory corruption to occur after resume from hibernation, especially on systems with relatively small RAM that need to swap often. This issue can be addressed by keeping the GFP_IOFS bits clear in gfp_allowed_mask during the entire hibernation, including the saving of the image, until the system is finally turned off or the hibernation is aborted. Unfortunately, for this purpose it's necessary to rework the way in which the hibernate and suspend code manipulates gfp_allowed_mask. This change is based on an earlier patch from Hugh Dickins.

commit 7b2a69ba7055da9a04eb96aa7b38c8e3280aaaa5 upstream. Because it caused a chroot ttyname regression in 2.6.36. As of 2.6.36 ttyname does not work in a chroot. It has already been reported that screen breaks, and for me this breaks an automated distribution testsuite, that I need to preserve the ability to run the existing binaries on for several more years. glibc 2.11.3 which has a fix for this is not an option.

2010-12-09memcg: avoid deadlock between move charge and try_charge()Daisuke Nishimura
commit b1dd693e5b9348bd68a80e679e03cf9c0973b01b upstream. __mem_cgroup_try_charge() can be called under down_write(&mmap_sem)(e.g. mlock does it). This means it can cause deadlock if it races with move charge: Ex.1) move charge | try charge --------------------------------------+------------------------------ mem_cgroup_can_attach() | down_write(&mmap_sem) mc.moving_task = current | .. mem_cgroup_precharge_mc() | __mem_cgroup_try_charge() mem_cgroup_count_precharge() | prepare_to_wait() down_read(&mmap_sem) | if (mc.moving_task) -> cannot aquire the lock | -> true | schedule() Ex.2) move charge | try charge --------------------------------------+------------------------------ mem_cgroup_can_attach() | mc.moving_task = current | mem_cgroup_precharge_mc() | mem_cgroup_count_precharge() | down_read(&mmap_sem) | .. | up_read(&mmap_sem) | | down_write(&mmap_sem) mem_cgroup_move_task() | .. mem_cgroup_move_charge() | __mem_cgroup_try_charge() down_read(&mmap_sem) | prepare_to_wait() -> cannot aquire the lock | if (mc.moving_task) | -> true | schedule() To avoid this deadlock, we do all the move charge works (both can_attach() and attach()) under one mmap_sem section. And after this patch, we set/clear mc.moving_task outside mc.lock, because we use the lock only to check mc.from/to.

commit a5880a9e5bb40fbae55de60051d69a29091053c3 upstream. Previous baud rate setting code only has been tested with 3.5M/9600/ 115200/230400/460800 bps, and recently we got a 3M bps device to test, which needs to modify current MUL register setting, and with this patch 2.5M/2M/1.5M/1M/0.5M should also work as they just use a MUL value scale down from 3M's. Also got some reference register setting from silicon guys for different baud rates, which tries to keep the pre-scalar register value to 16.

2010-12-09ARM: 6489/1: thumb2: fix incorrect optimisation in usraccWill Deacon
commit 1142b71d85894dcff1466dd6c871ea3c89e0352c upstream. Commit 8b592783 added a Thumb-2 variant of usracc which, when it is called with \rept=2, calls usraccoff once with an offset of 0 and secondly with a hard-coded offset of 4 in order to avoid incrementing the pointer again. If \inc != 4 then we will store the data to the wrong offset from \ptr. Luckily, the only caller that passes \rept=2 to this function is __clear_user so we haven't been actively corrupting user data. This patch fixes usracc to pass \inc instead of #4 to usraccoff when it is called a second time.
