sendfile(): check f_op.splice_write() rather than f_op.sendpage()
commit
cc56f7de7f00d188c7c4da1e9861581853b9e92f upstream.
sendfile(2) was reworked with the splice infrastructure, but it still
checks f_op.sendpage() instead of f_op.splice_write() wrongly. Although
if f_op.sendpage() exists, f_op.splice_write() always exists at the same
time currently, the assumption will be broken in future silently. This
patch also brings a side effect: sendfile(2) can work with any output
file. Some security checks related to f_op are added too.

CRED: Fix get_task_cred() and task_state() to not resurrect dead credentials
commit
de09a9771a5346029f4d11e4ac886be7f9bfdd75 upstream.
It's possible for get_task_cred() as it currently stands to 'corrupt' a set of
credentials by incrementing their usage count after their replacement by the
task being accessed.
What happens is that get_task_cred() can race with commit_creds():
TASK_1 TASK_2 RCU_CLEANER
-->get_task_cred(TASK_2)
rcu_read_lock()
__cred = __task_cred(TASK_2)
-->commit_creds()
old_cred = TASK_2->real_cred
TASK_2->real_cred = ...
put_cred(old_cred)
call_rcu(old_cred)
[__cred->usage == 0]
get_cred(__cred)
[__cred->usage == 1]
rcu_read_unlock()
-->put_cred_rcu()
[__cred->usage == 1]
panic()
However, since a tasks credentials are generally not changed very often, we can
reasonably make use of a loop involving reading the creds pointer and using
atomic_inc_not_zero() to attempt to increment it if it hasn't already hit zero.
If successful, we can safely return the credentials in the knowledge that, even
if the task we're accessing has released them, they haven't gone to the RCU
cleanup code.
We then change task_state() in procfs to use get_task_cred() rather than
calling get_cred() on the result of __task_cred(), as that suffers from the
same problem.
Without this change, a BUG_ON in __put_cred() or in put_cred_rcu() can be
tripped when it is noticed that the usage count is not zero as it ought to be,
for example:

OHCI: work around for nVidia shutdown problem
commit
3df7169e73fc1d71a39cffeacc969f6840cdf52b upstream.
This patch (as1417) fixes a problem affecting some (or all) nVidia
chipsets. When the computer is shut down, the OHCI controllers
continue to power the USB buses and evidently they drive a Reset
signal out all their ports. This prevents attached devices from going
to low power. Mouse LEDs stay on, for example, which is disconcerting
for users and a drain on laptop batteries.
The fix involves leaving each OHCI controller in the OPERATIONAL state
during system shutdown rather than putting it in the RESET state.
Although this nominally means the controller is running, in fact it's
not doing very much since all the schedules are all disabled. However
there is ongoing DMA to the Host Controller Communications Area, so
the patch also disables the bus-master capability of all PCI USB
controllers after the shutdown routine runs.
The fix is applied only to nVidia-based PCI OHCI controllers, so it
shouldn't cause problems on systems using other hardware. As an added
safety measure, in case the kernel encounters one of these running
controllers during boot, the patch changes quirk_usb_handoff_ohci()
(which runs early on during PCI discovery) to reset the controller
before anything bad can happen.

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.

In a kernel with NFSDv4 compiled in the corruption takes the form of an

there is no operation 0, this is harmless.
In a kernel with NFSDv4 disabled it corrupts whatever happens to be in the

Commit:

Mike reports that since
e9e9250b (sched: Scale down cpu_power due to RT
tasks), wake_affine() goes funny on RT tasks due to them still having a
!0 weight and wake_affine() still subtracts that from the rq weight.
Since nobody should be using se->weight for RT tasks, set the value to
zero. Also, since we now use ->cpu_power to normalize rq weights to
account for RT cpu usage, add that factor into the imbalance computation.

sched: Use group weight, idle cpu metrics to fix imbalances during idle
Commit:
aae6d3ddd8b90f5b2c8d79a2b914d1706d124193 upstream
Currently we consider a sched domain to be well balanced when the imbalance
is less than the domain's imablance_pct. As the number of cores and threads
are increasing, current values of imbalance_pct (for example 25% for a
NUMA domain) are not enough to detect imbalances like:
a) On a WSM-EP system (two sockets, each having 6 cores and 12 logical threads),
24 cpu-hogging tasks get scheduled as 13 on one socket and 11 on another
socket. Leading to an idle HT cpu.
b) On a hypothetial 2 socket NHM-EX system (each socket having 8 cores and
16 logical threads), 16 cpu-hogging tasks can get scheduled as 9 on one
socket and 7 on another socket. Leaving one core in a socket idle
whereas in another socket we have a core having both its HT siblings busy.
While this issue can be fixed by decreasing the domain's imbalance_pct
(by making it a function of number of logical cpus in the domain), it
can potentially cause more task migrations across sched groups in an
overloaded case.
Fix this by using imbalance_pct only during newly_idle and busy
load balancing. And during idle load balancing, check if there
is an imbalance in number of idle cpu's across the busiest and this
sched_group or if the busiest group has more tasks than its weight that
the idle cpu in this_group can pull.

Commit:

When CPU is idle and on first interrupt, irq_enter calls tick_check_idle()
to notify interruption from idle. But, there is a problem if this call
is done after __irq_enter, as all routines in __irq_enter may find
stale time due to yet to be done tick_check_idle.
Specifically, trace calls in __irq_enter when they use global clock and also
account_system_vtime change in this patch as it wants to use sched_clock_cpu()
to do proper irq timing.
But, tick_check_idle was moved after __irq_enter intentionally to
prevent problem of unneeded ksoftirqd wakeups by the commit
ee5f80a:
irq: call __irq_enter() before calling the tick_idle_check
Impact: avoid spurious ksoftirqd wakeups
Moving tick_check_idle() before __irq_enter and wrapping it with
local_bh_enable/disable would solve both the problems.

This patch removes irq time from CPU power piggybacking on

Scheduler accounts both softirq and interrupt processing times to the
currently running task. This means, if the interrupt processing was
for some other task in the system, then the current task ends up being
penalized as it gets shorter runtime than otherwise.
Change sched task accounting to acoount only actual task time from
currently running task. Now update_curr(), modifies the delta_exec to
depend on rq->clock_task.
Note that this change only handles CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING case. We can
extend this to CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING with minimal effort. But, thats
for later.
This change will impact scheduling behavior in interrupt heavy conditions.
Tested on a 4-way system with eth0 handled by CPU 2 and a network heavy
task (nc) running on CPU 3 (and no RSS/RFS). With that I have CPU 2
spending 75%+ of its time in irq processing. CPU 3 spending around 35%
time running nc task.
Now, if I run another CPU intensive task on CPU 2, without this change
/proc/<pid>/schedstat shows 100% of time accounted to this task. With this
change, it rightly shows less than 25% accounted to this task as remaining
time is actually spent on irq processing.

s390/powerpc/ia64 have support for CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING which does
the fine granularity accounting of user, system, hardirq, softirq times.
Adding that option on archs like x86 will be challenging however, given the
state of TSC reliability on various platforms and also the overhead it will
add in syscall entry exit.
Instead, add a lighter variant that only does finer accounting of
hardirq and softirq times, providing precise irq times (instead of timer tick
based samples). This accounting is added with a new config option
CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING so that there won't be any overhead for users not
interested in paying the perf penalty.
This accounting is based on sched_clock, with the code being generic.
So, other archs may find it useful as well.
This patch just adds the core logic and does not enable this logic yet.

Commit:
75e1056f5c57050415b64cb761a3acc35d91f013 upstream
Peter Zijlstra found a bug in the way softirq time is accounted in
VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING on this thread:
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail//linux/kernel/1009.2/01366.html
The problem is, softirq processing uses local_bh_disable internally. There
is no way, later in the flow, to differentiate between whether softirq is
being processed or is it just that bh has been disabled. So, a hardirq when bh
is disabled results in time being wrongly accounted as softirq.
Looking at the code a bit more, the problem exists in !VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING
as well. As account_system_time() in normal tick based accouting also uses
softirq_count, which will be set even when not in softirq with bh disabled.
Peter also suggested solution of using 2*SOFTIRQ_OFFSET as irq count
for local_bh_{disable,enable} and using just SOFTIRQ_OFFSET while softirq
processing. The patch below does that and adds API in_serving_softirq() which
returns whether we are currently processing softirq or not.
Also changes one of the usages of softirq_count in net/sched/cls_cgroup.c
to in_serving_softirq.
Looks like many usages of in_softirq really want in_serving_softirq. Those
changes can be made individually on a case by case basis.

sched: Drop group_capacity to 1 only if local group has extra capacity
Commit:
75dd321d79d495a0ee579e6249ebc38ddbb2667f upstream
When SD_PREFER_SIBLING is set on a sched domain, drop group_capacity to 1
only if the local group has extra capacity. The extra check prevents the case
where you always pull from the heaviest group when it is already under-utilized
(possible with a large weight task outweighs the tasks on the system).
For example, consider a 16-cpu quad-core quad-socket machine with MC and NUMA
scheduling domains. Let's say we spawn 15 nice0 tasks and one nice-15 task,
and each task is running on one core. In this case, we observe the following
events when balancing at the NUMA domain:
- find_busiest_group() will always pick the sched group containing the niced
task to be the busiest group.
- find_busiest_queue() will then always pick one of the cpus running the
nice0 task (never picks the cpu with the nice -15 task since
weighted_cpuload > imbalance).
- The load balancer fails to migrate the task since it is the running task
and increments sd->nr_balance_failed.
- It repeats the above steps a few more times until sd->nr_balance_failed > 5,
at which point it kicks off the active load balancer, wakes up the migration
thread and kicks the nice 0 task off the cpu.
The load balancer doesn't stop until we kick out all nice 0 tasks from
the sched group, leaving you with 3 idle cpus and one cpu running the
nice -15 task.
When balancing at the NUMA domain, we drop sgs.group_capacity to 1 if the child
domain (in this case MC) has SD_PREFER_SIBLING set. Subsequent load checks are
not relevant because the niced task has a very large weight.
In this patch, we add an extra condition to the "if(prefer_sibling)" check in
update_sd_lb_stats(). We drop the capacity of a group only if the local group
has extra capacity, ie. nr_running < group_capacity. This patch preserves the
original intent of the prefer_siblings check (to spread tasks across the system
in low utilization scenarios) and fixes the case above.
It helps in the following ways:
- In low utilization cases (where nr_tasks << nr_cpus), we still drop
group_capacity down to 1 if we prefer siblings.
- On very busy systems (where nr_tasks >> nr_cpus), sgs.nr_running will most
likely be > sgs.group_capacity.
- When balancing large weight tasks, if the local group does not have extra
capacity, we do not pick the group with the niced task as the busiest group.
This prevents failed balances, active migration and the under-utilization
described above.

sched: Force balancing on newidle balance if local group has capacity
Commit:
fab476228ba37907ad75216d0fd9732ada9c119e upstream
This patch forces a load balance on a newly idle cpu when the local group has
extra capacity and the busiest group does not have any. It improves system
utilization when balancing tasks with a large weight differential.
Under certain situations, such as a niced down task (i.e. nice = -15) in the
presence of nr_cpus NICE0 tasks, the niced task lands on a sched group and
kicks away other tasks because of its large weight. This leads to sub-optimal
utilization of the machine. Even though the sched group has capacity, it does
not pull tasks because sds.this_load >> sds.max_load, and f_b_g() returns NULL.
With this patch, if the local group has extra capacity, we shortcut the checks
in f_b_g() and try to pull a task over. A sched group has extra capacity if the
group capacity is greater than the number of running tasks in that group.
Thanks to Mike Galbraith for discussions leading to this patch and for the
insight to reuse SD_NEWIDLE_BALANCE.

sched: Set group_imb only a task can be pulled from the busiest cpu
Commit:

When cycling through sched groups to determine the busiest group, set
group_imb only if the busiest cpu has more than 1 runnable task. This patch
fixes the case where two cpus in a group have one runnable task each, but there
is a large weight differential between these two tasks. The load balancer is
unable to migrate any task from this group, and hence do not consider this
group to be imbalanced.

This patch adds a check in task_hot to return if the task has SCHED_IDLE
policy. SCHED_IDLE tasks have very low weight, and when run with regular
workloads, are typically scheduled many milliseconds apart. There is no

The cgroup_subsys_state structures referenced by idle tasks are never
freed, because the idle tasks should be part of the root cgroup,
which is not removable.
The problem is that while we do in-fact hold rq->lock, the newly spawned
idle thread's cpu is not yet set to the correct cpu so the lockdep check
in task_group():
lockdep_is_held(&task_rq(p)->lock)
will fail.
But this is a chicken and egg problem. Setting the CPU's runqueue requires
that the CPU's runqueue already be set. ;-)
So insert an RCU read-side critical section to avoid the complaint.

Here a newly created task is having its runqueue assigned. The new task
is not yet on the tasklist, so cannot go away. This is therefore a false
positive, suppress with an RCU read-side critical section.

If a high priority task is waking up on a CPU that is running a
lower priority task that is bound to a CPU, see if we can move the
high RT task to another CPU first. Note, if all other CPUs are
running higher priority tasks than the CPU bounded current task,
then it will be preempted regardless.

sched: Try not to migrate higher priority RT tasks
Commit:
43fa5460fe60dea5c610490a1d263415419c60f6 upstream
When first working on the RT scheduler design, we concentrated on
keeping all CPUs running RT tasks instead of having multiple RT
tasks on a single CPU waiting for the migration thread to move
them. Instead we take a more proactive stance and push or pull RT
tasks from one CPU to another on wakeup or scheduling.
When an RT task wakes up on a CPU that is running another RT task,
instead of preempting it and killing the cache of the running RT
task, we look to see if we can migrate the RT task that is waking
up, even if the RT task waking up is of higher priority.
This may sound a bit odd, but RT tasks should be limited in
migration by the user anyway. But in practice, people do not do
this, which causes high prio RT tasks to bounce around the CPUs.
This becomes even worse when we have priority inheritance, because
a high prio task can block on a lower prio task and boost its
priority. When the lower prio task wakes up the high prio task, if
it happens to be on the same CPU it will migrate off of it.
But in reality, the above does not happen much either, because the
wake up of the lower prio task, which has already been boosted, if
it was on the same CPU as the higher prio task, it would then
migrate off of it. But anyway, we do not want to migrate them
either.
To examine the scheduling, I created a test program and examined it
under kernelshark. The test program created CPU * 2 threads, where
each thread had a different priority. The program takes different
options. The options used in this change log was to have priority
inheritance mutexes or not.
All threads did the following loop:
static void grab_lock(long id, int iter, int l)
{
ftrace_write("thread %ld iter %d, taking lock %d\n",
id, iter, l);
pthread_mutex_lock(&locks[l]);
ftrace_write("thread %ld iter %d, took lock %d\n",
id, iter, l);
busy_loop(nr_tasks - id);
ftrace_write("thread %ld iter %d, unlock lock %d\n",
id, iter, l);
pthread_mutex_unlock(&locks[l]);
}
void *start_task(void *id)
{
[...]
while (!done) {
for (l = 0; l < nr_locks; l++) {
grab_lock(id, i, l);
ftrace_write("thread %ld iter %d sleeping\n",
id, i);
ms_sleep(id);
}
i++;
}
[...]
}
The busy_loop(ms) keeps the CPU spinning for ms milliseconds. The
ms_sleep(ms) sleeps for ms milliseconds. The ftrace_write() writes
to the ftrace buffer to help analyze via ftrace.
The higher the id, the higher the prio, the shorter it does the
busy loop, but the longer it spins. This is usually the case with
RT tasks, the lower priority tasks usually run longer than higher
priority tasks.
At the end of the test, it records the number of loops each thread
took, as well as the number of voluntary preemptions, non-voluntary
preemptions, and number of migrations each thread took, taking the
information from /proc/$$/sched and /proc/$$/status.
Running this on a 4 CPU processor, the results without changes to
the kernel looked like this:
Task vol nonvol migrated iterations
---- --- ------ -------- ----------
0: 53 3220 1470 98
1: 562 773 724 98
2: 752 933 1375 98
3: 749 39 697 98
4: 758 5 515 98
5: 764 2 679 99
6: 761 2 535 99
7: 757 3 346 99
total: 5156 4977 6341 787
Each thread regardless of priority migrated a few hundred times.
The higher priority tasks, were a little better but still took
quite an impact.
By letting higher priority tasks bump the lower prio task from the
CPU, things changed a bit:
Task vol nonvol migrated iterations
---- --- ------ -------- ----------
0: 37 2835 1937 98
1: 666 1821 1865 98
2: 654 1003 1385 98
3: 664 635 973 99
4: 698 197 352 99
5: 703 101 159 99
6: 708 1 75 99
7: 713 1 2 99
total: 4843 6594 6748 789
The total # of migrations did not change (several runs showed the
difference all within the noise). But we now see a dramatic
improvement to the higher priority tasks. (kernelshark showed that
the watchdog timer bumped the highest priority task to give it the
2 count. This was actually consistent with every run).
Notice that the # of iterations did not change either.
The above was with priority inheritance mutexes. That is, when the
higher prority task blocked on a lower priority task, the lower
priority task would inherit the higher priority task (which shows
why task 6 was bumped so many times). When not using priority
inheritance mutexes, the current kernel shows this:
Task vol nonvol migrated iterations
---- --- ------ -------- ----------
0: 56 3101 1892 95
1: 594 713 937 95
2: 625 188 618 95
3: 628 4 491 96
4: 640 7 468 96
5: 631 2 501 96
6: 641 1 466 96
7: 643 2 497 96
total: 4458 4018 5870 765
Not much changed with or without priority inheritance mutexes. But
if we let the high priority task bump lower priority tasks on
wakeup we see:
Task vol nonvol migrated iterations
---- --- ------ -------- ----------
0: 115 3439 2782 98
1: 633 1354 1583 99
2: 652 919 1218 99
3: 645 713 934 99
4: 690 3 3 99
5: 694 1 4 99
6: 720 3 4 99
7: 747 0 1 100
Which shows a even bigger change. The big difference between task 3
and task 4 is because we have only 4 CPUs on the machine, causing
the 4 highest prio tasks to always have preference.
Although I did not measure cache misses, and I'm sure there would
be little to measure since the test was not data intensive, I could
imagine large improvements for higher priority tasks when dealing
with lower priority tasks. Thus, I'm satisfied with making the
change and agreeing with what Gregory Haskins argued a few years
ago when we first had this discussion.
One final note. All tasks in the above tests were RT tasks. Any RT
task will always preempt a non RT task that is running on the CPU
the RT task wants to run on.

sched: Increment cache_nice_tries only on periodic lb
Commit:
58b26c4c025778c09c7a1438ff185080e11b7d0a upstream
scheduler uses cache_nice_tries as an indicator to do cache_hot and
active load balance, when normal load balance fails. Currently,
this value is changed on any failed load balance attempt. That ends
up being not so nice to workloads that enter/exit idle often, as
they do more frequent new_idle balance and that pretty soon results
in cache hot tasks being pulled in.
Making the cache_nice_tries ignore failed new_idle balance seems to
make better sense. With that only the failed load balance in
periodic load balance gets accounted and the rate of accumulation
of cache_nice_tries will not depend on idle entry/exit (short
running sleep-wakeup kind of tasks). This reduces movement of
cache_hot tasks.

sched: Move sched_avg_update() to update_cpu_load()
Commit:
da2b71edd8a7db44fe1746261410a981f3e03632 upstream
Currently sched_avg_update() (which updates rt_avg stats in the rq)
is getting called from scale_rt_power() (in the load balance context)
which doesn't take rq->lock.
Fix it by moving the sched_avg_update() to more appropriate
update_cpu_load() where the CFS load gets updated as well.

usb: Realloc xHCI structures after a hub is verified.
commit
653a39d1f61bdc9f277766736d21d2e9be0391cb upstream.
When there's an xHCI host power loss after a suspend from memory, the USB
core attempts to reset and verify the USB devices that are attached to the
system. The xHCI driver has to reallocate those devices, since the
hardware lost all knowledge of them during the power loss.
When a hub is plugged in, and the host loses power, the xHCI hardware
structures are not updated to say the device is a hub. This is usually
done in hub_configure() when the USB hub is detected. That function is
skipped during a reset and verify by the USB core, since the core restores
the old configuration and alternate settings, and the hub driver has no
idea this happened. This bug makes the xHCI host controller reject the
enumeration of low speed devices under the resumed hub.
Therefore, make the USB core re-setup the internal xHCI hub device
information by calling update_hub_device() when hub_activate() is called
for a hub reset resume. After a host power loss, all devices under the
roothub get a reset-resume or a disconnect.
This patch should be queued for the 2.6.37 stable tree.

x86, mm: avoid possible bogus tlb entries by clearing prev mm_cpumask after switching mm
commit
831d52bc153971b70e64eccfbed2b232394f22f8 upstream.
Clearing the cpu in prev's mm_cpumask early will avoid the flush tlb
IPI's while the cr3 is still pointing to the prev mm. And this window
can lead to the possibility of bogus TLB fills resulting in strange
failures. One such problematic scenario is mentioned below.
T1. CPU-1 is context switching from mm1 to mm2 context and got a NMI
etc between the point of clearing the cpu from the mm_cpumask(mm1)
and before reloading the cr3 with the new mm2.
T2. CPU-2 is tearing down a specific vma for mm1 and will proceed with
flushing the TLB for mm1. It doesn't send the flush TLB to CPU-1
as it doesn't see that cpu listed in the mm_cpumask(mm1).
T3. After the TLB flush is complete, CPU-2 goes ahead and frees the
page-table pages associated with the removed vma mapping.
T4. CPU-2 now allocates those freed page-table pages for something
else.
T5. As the CR3 and TLB caches for mm1 is still active on CPU-1, CPU-1
can potentially speculate and walk through the page-table caches
and can insert new TLB entries. As the page-table pages are
already freed and being used on CPU-2, this page walk can
potentially insert a bogus global TLB entry depending on the
(random) contents of the page that is being used on CPU-2.
T6. This bogus TLB entry being global will be active across future CR3
changes and can result in weird memory corruption etc.
To avoid this issue, for the prev mm that is handing over the cpu to
another mm, clear the cpu from the mm_cpumask(prev) after the cr3 is
changed.
Marking it for -stable, though we haven't seen any reported failure that
can be attributed to this.

c217649bf2d60ac119afd71d938278cffd55962b upstream.
No longer needlessly hold md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex when changing the
size of a DM device. This additional locking is unnecessary because
i_size_write() is already protected by the existing critical section in
dm_swap_table(). DM already has a reference on md->bdev so the
associated bd_inode may be changed without lifetime concerns.
A negative side-effect of having held md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex was
that a concurrent DM device resize and flush (via fsync) would deadlock.
Dropping md->bdev->bd_inode->i_mutex eliminates this potential for
deadlock. The following reproducer no longer deadlocks:

SELinux: do not compute transition labels on mountpoint labeled filesystems

selinux_inode_init_security computes transitions sids even for filesystems
that use mount point labeling. It shouldn't do that. It should just use
the mount point label always and no matter what.
This causes 2 problems. 1) it makes file creation slower than it needs to be
since we calculate the transition sid and 2) it allows files to be created
with a different label than the mount point!

kernel/smp.c: fix smp_call_function_many() SMP race
commit
6dc19899958e420a931274b94019e267e2396d3e upstream.
I noticed a failure where we hit the following WARN_ON in
generic_smp_call_function_interrupt:
if (!cpumask_test_and_clear_cpu(cpu, data->cpumask))
continue;
data->csd.func(data->csd.info);
refs = atomic_dec_return(&data->refs);
WARN_ON(refs < 0); <-------------------------
We atomically tested and cleared our bit in the cpumask, and yet the
number of cpus left (ie refs) was 0. How can this be?
It turns out commit
54fdade1c3332391948ec43530c02c4794a38172
("generic-ipi: make struct call_function_data lockless") is at fault. It
removes locking from smp_call_function_many and in doing so creates a
rather complicated race.
The problem comes about because:
- The smp_call_function_many interrupt handler walks call_function.queue
without any locking.
- We reuse a percpu data structure in smp_call_function_many.
- We do not wait for any RCU grace period before starting the next
smp_call_function_many.
Imagine a scenario where CPU A does two smp_call_functions back to back,
and CPU B does an smp_call_function in between. We concentrate on how CPU
C handles the calls:
CPU A CPU B CPU C CPU D
smp_call_function
smp_call_function_interrupt
walks
call_function.queue sees
data from CPU A on list
smp_call_function
smp_call_function_interrupt
walks
call_function.queue sees
(stale) CPU A on list
smp_call_function int
clears last ref on A
list_del_rcu, unlock
smp_call_function reuses
percpu *data A
data->cpumask sees and
clears bit in cpumask
might be using old or new fn!
decrements refs below 0
set data->refs (too late!)
The important thing to note is since the interrupt handler walks a
potentially stale call_function.queue without any locking, then another
cpu can view the percpu *data structure at any time, even when the owner
is in the process of initialising it.
The following test case hits the WARN_ON 100% of the time on my PowerPC
box (having 128 threads does help :)
#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/init.h>
#define ITERATIONS 100
static void do_nothing_ipi(void *dummy)
{
}

for (i = 0; i < ITERATIONS; i++)

}

return 0;
}
static void __exit testcase_exit(void)
{
}
module_init(testcase_init)

MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");

I tried to fix it by ordering the read and the write of ->cpumask and
->refs. In doing so I missed a critical case but Paul McKenney was able
to spot my bug thankfully :) To ensure we arent viewing previous
iterations the interrupt handler needs to read ->refs then ->cpumask then
->refs _again_.
Thanks to Milton Miller and Paul McKenney for helping to debug this issue.

Remove the broken line wrapping handling in pdc_iodc_print().
It is broken in 3 ways :
- It doesn't keep track of the current screen position, it just
assumes that the new buffer will be printed at the begining of the
screen.
- It doesn't take in account that non printable characters won't
increase the current position on the screen.
- And last but not least, it triggers a kernel panic if a backspace
is the first char in the provided buffer :

x86, pat/mtrr: Rendezvous all the cpus for MTRR/PAT init
Because of the UP configuration of that platform,
native_smp_prepare_cpus() bailed out (in smp_sanity_check())
before doing the set_mtrr_aps_delayed_init()
Further down the boot path, native_smp_cpus_done() will call the
delayed MTRR initialization for the AP's (mtrr_aps_init()) with
mtrr_aps_delayed_init not set. This resulted in the boot
processor reprogramming its MTRR's to the values seen during the
start of the OS boot. While this is not needed ideally, this
shouldn't have caused any side-effects. This is because the
reprogramming of MTRR's (set_mtrr_state() that gets called via
set_mtrr()) will check if the live register contents are
different from what is being asked to write and will do the actual
write only if they are different.
BP's mtrr state is read during the start of the OS boot and
typically nothing would have changed when we ask to reprogram it
on BP again because of the above scenario on an UP platform. So
on a normal UP platform no reprogramming of BP MTRR MSR's
happens and all is well.
However, on this platform, bios seems to be modifying the fixed
mtrr range registers between the start of OS boot and when we
double check the live registers for reprogramming BP MTRR
registers. And as the live registers are modified, we end up
reprogramming the MTRR's to the state seen during the start of
the OS boot.
During ACPI initialization, something in the bios (probably smi
handler?) don't like this fact and results in a hard lockup.
We didn't see this boot hang issue on this platform before the
commit
d0af9eed5aa91b6b7b5049cae69e5ea956fd85c3, because only
the AP's (if any) will program its MTRR's to the value that BP
had at the start of the OS boot.
Fix this issue by checking mtrr_aps_delayed_init before
continuing further in the mtrr_aps_init(). Now, only AP's (if
any) will program its MTRR's to the BP values during boot.
Addresses https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=623393
[ By the way, this behavior of the bios modifying MTRR's after the start
of the OS boot is not common and the kernel is not prepared to
handle this situation well. Irrespective of this issue, during
suspend/resume, linux kernel will try to reprogram the BP's MTRR values
to the values seen during the start of the OS boot. So suspend/resume might
be already broken on this platform for all linux kernel versions. ]

ptrace: use safer wake up on ptrace_detach()
commit
01e05e9a90b8f4c3997ae0537e87720eb475e532 upstream.
The wake_up_process() call in ptrace_detach() is spurious and not
interlocked with the tracee state. IOW, the tracee could be running or
sleeping in any place in the kernel by the time wake_up_process() is
called. This can lead to the tracee waking up unexpectedly which can be
dangerous.
The wake_up is spurious and should be removed but for now reduce its
toxicity by only waking up if the tracee is in TRACED or STOPPED state.
This bug can possibly be used as an attack vector. I don't think it
will take too much effort to come up with an attack which triggers oops
somewhere. Most sleeps are wrapped in condition test loops and should
be safe but we have quite a number of places where sleep and wakeup
conditions are expected to be interlocked. Although the window of
opportunity is tiny, ptrace can be used by non-privileged users and with
some loading the window can definitely be extended and exploited.

ds2760_battery: Fix calculation of time_to_empty_now
commit
86af95039b69a90db15294eb1f9c147f1df0a8ea upstream.
A check against division by zero was modified in commit
b0525b48.
Since this change time_to_empty_now is always reported as zero
while the battery is discharging and as a negative value while
the battery is charging. This is because current is negative while
the battery is discharging.
Fix the check introduced by commit
b0525b48 so that time_to_empty_now
is reported correctly during discharge and as zero while charging.

virtio: remove virtio-pci root device
commit
8b3bb3ecf1934ac4a7005ad9017de1127e2fbd2f upstream.
We sometimes need to map between the virtio device and
the given pci device. One such use is OS installer that
gets the boot pci device from BIOS and needs to
find the relevant block device. Since it can't,
installation fails.
Instead of creating a top-level devices/virtio-pci
directory, create each device under the corresponding
pci device node. Symlinks to all virtio-pci
devices can be found under the pci driver link in
bus/pci/drivers/virtio-pci/devices, and all virtio
devices under drivers/bus/virtio/devices.

PCI: pci-stub: ignore zero-length id parameters
commit
99a0fadf561e1f553c08f0a29f8b2578f55dd5f0 upstream.
pci-stub uses strsep() to separate list of ids and generates a warning
message when it fails to parse an id. However, not specifying the
parameter results in ids set to an empty string. strsep() happily
returns the empty string as the first token and thus triggers the
warning message spuriously.
Make the tokner ignore zero length ids.

rapidio: fix hang on RapidIO doorbell queue full condition
commit
12a4dc43911785f51a596f771ae0701b18d436f1 upstream.
In fsl_rio_dbell_handler() the code currently simply acknowledges the QFI
queue full interrupt, but does nothing to resolve the queue full
condition. Instead, it jumps to the end of the isr. When a queue full
condition occurs, the isr is then re-entered immediately and continually,
forever.
The fix is to just fall through and read out current doorbell entries.

commit

rtc-cmos was setting suspend/resume hooks at the device_driver level.
However, the platform bus code (drivers/base/platform.c) only looks for
resume hooks at the dev_pm_ops level, or within the platform_driver.
Switch rtc_cmos to use dev_pm_ops so that suspend/resume code is executed
again.

: The user visible symptom in our (XO laptop) case was that rtcwake would
: fail to wake the laptop. The RTC alarm would expire, but the wakeup

: As for severity, the impact may have been reduced because if I recall

To address this, prevent the NFS direct I/O engine from completing
async iocbs when the forward path returns an error without starting
any I/O.
This fix appears to survive ^C during both "xfstest no. 208" and "fsx

freed memory in another context resulting in the panic. The fix is to
prevent access to freed memory once the driver had issued the diag reset
