There's no need to set the disk capacity with the mutex held, so this
commit takes the variable setting out of the mutex. This simplifies
the disk capacity fix for very large volumes in a follow up commit.

The 'mst_mutex' is not needed since because 'ubifs_write_master()' is only
called on the mount path and commit path. The mount path is sequential and
there is no parallelism, and the commit path is also serialized - there is only
one commit going on at a time.

UBI assumes that ubi_attach_info will only contain ubi_ainf_volume
structures for volumes with at least one LEB.
In scanning mode this is true because UBI can nicely create a ubi_ainf_volume
on demand while creating the EBA table.
For fastmap this is not true, the fastmap on-flash structure has a list of
all volumes, the ubi_ainf_volume structures are created from this list.
So it can happen that an empty volume ends up in init_volumes().
We can easely deal with that by looking into ->leb_count too.

Fix checkpatch warnings:

Perhaps because seq_printf() is a varargs function, forcing the

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"A few more fixes for ftrace infrastructure.
I was cleaning out my INBOX and found two fixes from zhangwei from a
year ago that were lost in my mail. These fix an inconsistency
between trace_puts() and the way trace_printk() works. The reason
this is important to fix is because when trace_printk() doesn't have
any arguments, it turns into a trace_puts(). Not being able to enable
a stack trace against trace_printk() because it does not have any
arguments is quite confusing. Also, the fix is rather trivial and low
risk.
While porting some changes to PowerPC I discovered that it still has
the function graph tracer filter bug that if you also enable stack
tracing the function graph tracer filter is ignored. I fixed that up.
Finally, Martin Lau, fixed a bug that would cause readers of the
ftrace ring buffer to block forever even though it was suppose to be
NONBLOCK"
This also includes the fix from an earlier pull request:

ring_buffer_poll_wait() should always put the poll_table to its wait_queue
even there is immediate data available. Otherwise, the following epoll and
read sequence will eventually hang forever:
1. Put some data to make the trace_pipe ring_buffer read ready first
2. epoll_ctl(efd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, trace_pipe_fd, ee)
3. epoll_wait()
4. read(trace_pipe_fd) till EAGAIN
5. Add some more data to the trace_pipe ring_buffer
6. epoll_wait() -> this epoll_wait() will block forever
~ During the epoll_ctl(efd, EPOLL_CTL_ADD,...) call in step 2,
ring_buffer_poll_wait() returns immediately without adding poll_table,
which has poll_table->_qproc pointing to ep_poll_callback(), to its
wait_queue.
~ During the epoll_wait() call in step 3 and step 6,
ring_buffer_poll_wait() cannot add ep_poll_callback() to its wait_queue
because the poll_table->_qproc is NULL and it is how epoll works.
~ When there is new data available in step 6, ring_buffer does not know
it has to call ep_poll_callback() because it is not in its wait queue.
Hence, block forever.
Other poll implementation seems to call poll_wait() unconditionally as the very
first thing to do. For example, tcp_poll() in tcp.c.

Running my ftrace tests on PowerPC, it failed the test that checks
if function_graph tracer is affected by the stack tracer. It was.
Looking into this, I found that the update_function_graph_func()
must be called even if the trampoline function is not changed.
This is because archs like PowerPC do not support ftrace_ops being
passed by assembly and instead uses a helper function (what the
trampoline function points to). Since this function is not changed
even when multiple ftrace_ops are added to the code, the test that
falls out before calling update_function_graph_func() will miss that
the update must still be done.
Call update_function_graph_function() for all calls to
update_ftrace_function()

Currently trace option stacktrace is not applicable for
trace_printk with constant string argument, the reason is
in __trace_puts/__trace_bputs ftrace_trace_stack is missing.
In contrast, when using trace_printk with non constant string
argument(will call into __trace_printk/__trace_bprintk), then
trace option stacktrace is workable, this inconstant result
will confuses users a lot.

When the initialization of Intel HDMI controller fails due to missing
i915 kernel symbols (e.g. HD-audio is built in while i915 is module),
the driver discontinues the probe. However, since the probe was done
asynchronously, the driver object still remains, thus the relevant PM
ops are still called at suspend/resume. This results in the bad access
to the incomplete audio card object, eventually leads to Oops or stall
at PM.
This patch adds the missing checks of chip->init_failed flag at each
PM callback in order to fix the problem above.

The l2tp [get|set]sockopt() code has fallen back to the UDP functions
for socket option levels != SOL_PPPOL2TP since day one, but that has
never actually worked, since the l2tp socket isn't an inet socket.
As David Miller points out:
"If we wanted this to work, it'd have to look up the tunnel and then
use tunnel->sk, but I wonder how useful that would be"
Since this can never have worked so nobody could possibly have depended
on that functionality, just remove the broken code and return -EINVAL.

Commit 568f194e8bd16c353ad50f9ab95d98b20578a39d ("net: ppp: use
sk_unattached_filter api") causes sk_chk_filter() to be called twice when
setting a PPP pass or active filter. This applies to both the generic PPP
subsystem implemented by drivers/net/ppp/ppp_generic.c and the ISDN PPP
subsystem implemented by drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_ppp.c. The first call is from
within get_filter(). The second one is through the call chain
ppp_ioctl() or isdn_ppp_ioctl()
--> sk_unattached_filter_create()
--> __sk_prepare_filter()
--> sk_chk_filter()
The first call from within get_filter() should be deleted as get_filter() is
called just before calling sk_unattached_filter_create() later on, which
eventually calls sk_chk_filter() anyway.
For 3.15.x, this proposed change is a bugfix rather than a pure optimization as
in that branch, sk_chk_filter() may replace filter codes by other codes which
are not recognized when executing sk_chk_filter() a second time. So with
3.15.x, if sk_chk_filter() is called twice, the second invocation may yield
EINVAL (this depends on the filter codes found in the filter to be set, but
because the replacement is done for frequently used codes, this is almost
always the case). The net effect is that setting pass and/or active PPP filters
does not work anymore, since sk_unattached_filter_create() always returns
EINVAL due to the second call to sk_chk_filter(), regardless whether the filter
was originally sane or not.

The PPP channel MTU is used with Multilink PPP when ppp_mp_explode() (see
ppp_generic module) tries to determine how big a fragment might be. According
to RFC 1661, the MTU excludes the 2-byte PPP protocol field, see the
corresponding comment and code in ppp_mp_explode():
/*
* hdrlen includes the 2-byte PPP protocol field, but the
* MTU counts only the payload excluding the protocol field.
* (RFC1661 Section 2)

mtu = pch->chan->mtu - (hdrlen - 2);
However, the pppoe module *does* include the PPP protocol field in the channel
MTU, which is wrong as it causes the PPP payload to be 1-2 bytes too big under
certain circumstances (one byte if PPP protocol compression is used, two
otherwise), causing the generated Ethernet packets to be dropped. So the pppoe
module has to subtract two bytes from the channel MTU. This error only
manifests itself when using Multilink PPP, as otherwise the channel MTU is not
used anywhere.
In the following, I will describe how to reproduce this bug. We configure two
pppd instances for multilink PPP over two PPPoE links, say eth2 and eth3, with
a MTU of 1492 bytes for each link and a MRRU of 2976 bytes. (This MRRU is
computed by adding the two link MTUs and subtracting the MP header twice, which
is 4 bytes long.) The necessary pppd statements on both sides are "multilink
mtu 1492 mru 1492 mrru 2976". On the client side, we additionally need "plugin
rp-pppoe.so eth2" and "plugin rp-pppoe.so eth3", respectively; on the server
side, we additionally need to start two pppoe-server instances to be able to
establish two PPPoE sessions, one over eth2 and one over eth3. We set the MTU
of the PPP network interface to the MRRU (2976) on both sides of the connection
in order to make use of the higher bandwidth. (If we didn't do that, IP
fragmentation would kick in, which we want to avoid.)
Now we send a ICMPv4 echo request with a payload of 2948 bytes from client to
server over the PPP link. This results in the following network packet:
2948 (echo payload)
+ 8 (ICMPv4 header)
+ 20 (IPv4 header)
---------------------
2976 (PPP payload)
These 2976 bytes do not exceed the MTU of the PPP network interface, so the
IP packet is not fragmented. Now the multilink PPP code in ppp_mp_explode()
prepends one protocol byte (0x21 for IPv4), making the packet one byte bigger
than the negotiated MRRU. So this packet would have to be divided in three
fragments. But this does not happen as each link MTU is assumed to be two bytes
larger. So this packet is diveded into two fragments only, one of size 1489 and
one of size 1488. Now we have for that bigger fragment:
1489 (PPP payload)
+ 4 (MP header)
+ 2 (PPP protocol field for the MP payload (0x3d))
+ 6 (PPPoE header)
--------------------------
1501 (Ethernet payload)
This packet exceeds the link MTU and is discarded.
If one configures the link MTU on the client side to 1501, one can see the
discarded Ethernet frames with tcpdump running on the client. A
ping -s 2948 -c 1 192.168.15.254
leads to the smaller fragment that is correctly received on the server side:
(tcpdump -vvvne -i eth3 pppoes and ppp proto 0x3d)
52:54:00:ad:87:fd > 52:54:00:79:5c:d0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
length 1514: PPPoE [ses 0x3] MLPPP (0x003d), length 1494: seq 0x000,
Flags [end], length 1492
and to the bigger fragment that is not received on the server side:
(tcpdump -vvvne -i eth2 pppoes and ppp proto 0x3d)
52:54:00:70:9e:89 > 52:54:00:5d:6f:b0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
length 1515: PPPoE [ses 0x5] MLPPP (0x003d), length 1495: seq 0x000,
Flags [begin], length 1493
With the patch below, we correctly obtain three fragments:
52:54:00:ad:87:fd > 52:54:00:79:5c:d0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
length 1514: PPPoE [ses 0x1] MLPPP (0x003d), length 1494: seq 0x000,
Flags [begin], length 1492
52:54:00:70:9e:89 > 52:54:00:5d:6f:b0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
length 1514: PPPoE [ses 0x1] MLPPP (0x003d), length 1494: seq 0x000,
Flags [none], length 1492
52:54:00:ad:87:fd > 52:54:00:79:5c:d0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
length 27: PPPoE [ses 0x1] MLPPP (0x003d), length 7: seq 0x000,
Flags [end], length 5
And the ICMPv4 echo request is successfully received at the server side:
IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 21925, offset 0, flags [DF], proto ICMP (1),
length 2976)
192.168.222.2 > 192.168.15.254: ICMP echo request, id 30530, seq 0,
length 2956
The bug was introduced in commit c9aa6895371b2a257401f59d3393c9f7ac5a8698
("[PPPOE]: Advertise PPPoE MTU") from the very beginning. This patch applies
to 3.10 upwards but the fix can be applied (with minor modifications) to
kernels as old as 2.6.32.

The code in neigh_sysctl_register() relies on a specific layout of
struct neigh_table, namely that the 'gc_*' variables are directly
following the 'parms' member in a specific order. The code, though,
expresses this in the most ugly way.
Get rid of the ugly casts and use the 'tbl' pointer to get a handle to
the table. This way we can refer to the 'gc_*' variables directly.
Similarly seen in the grsecurity patch, written by Brad Spengler.

When quota is on, it is expected that unused quota inodes have a
value of NULLFSINO. The changes to support a separate project quota
in 3.12 broken this rule for non-project quota inode enabled
filesystem, as the code now refuses to write the group quota inode
if neither group or project quotas are enabled. This regression was
introduced by commit d892d58 ("xfs: Start using pquotaino from the
superblock").
In this case, we should be writing NULLFSINO rather than nothing to
ensure that we leave the group quota inode in a valid state while
quotas are enabled.
Failure to do so doesn't cause a current kernel to break - the
separate project quota inodes introduced translation code to always
treat a zero inode as NULLFSINO. This was introduced by commit
0102629 ("xfs: Initialize all quota inodes to be NULLFSINO") with is
also in 3.12 but older kernels do not do this and hence taking a
filesystem back to an older kernel can result in quotas failing
initialisation at mount time. When that happens, we see this in
dmesg:
[ 1649.215390] XFS (sdb): Mounting Filesystem
[ 1649.316894] XFS (sdb): Failed to initialize disk quotas.
[ 1649.316902] XFS (sdb): Ending clean mount
By ensuring that we write NULLFSINO to quota inodes that aren't
active, we avoid this problem. We have to be really careful when
determining if the quota inodes are active or not, because we don't
want to write a NULLFSINO if the quota inodes are active and we
simply aren't updating them.

While working on some other SCTP code, I noticed that some
structures shared with user space are leaking uninitialized
stack or heap buffer. In particular, struct sctp_sndrcvinfo
has a 2 bytes hole between .sinfo_flags and .sinfo_ppid that
remains unfilled by us in sctp_ulpevent_read_sndrcvinfo() when
putting this into cmsg. But also struct sctp_remote_error
contains a 2 bytes hole that we don't fill but place into a skb
through skb_copy_expand() via sctp_ulpevent_make_remote_error().
Both structures are defined by the IETF in RFC6458:
* Section 5.3.2. SCTP Header Information Structure:
The sctp_sndrcvinfo structure is defined below:
struct sctp_sndrcvinfo {
uint16_t sinfo_stream;
uint16_t sinfo_ssn;
uint16_t sinfo_flags;
<-- 2 bytes hole -->
uint32_t sinfo_ppid;
uint32_t sinfo_context;
uint32_t sinfo_timetolive;
uint32_t sinfo_tsn;
uint32_t sinfo_cumtsn;
sctp_assoc_t sinfo_assoc_id;
};
* 6.1.3. SCTP_REMOTE_ERROR:
A remote peer may send an Operation Error message to its peer.
This message indicates a variety of error conditions on an
association. The entire ERROR chunk as it appears on the wire
is included in an SCTP_REMOTE_ERROR event. Please refer to the
SCTP specification [RFC4960] and any extensions for a list of
possible error formats. An SCTP error notification has the
following format:
struct sctp_remote_error {
uint16_t sre_type;
uint16_t sre_flags;
uint32_t sre_length;
uint16_t sre_error;
<-- 2 bytes hole -->
sctp_assoc_t sre_assoc_id;
uint8_t sre_data[];
};
Fix this by setting both to 0 before filling them out. We also
have other structures shared between user and kernel space in
SCTP that contains holes (e.g. struct sctp_paddrthlds), but we
copy that buffer over from user space first and thus don't need
to care about it in that cases.
While at it, we can also remove lengthy comments copied from
the draft, instead, we update the comment with the correct RFC
number where one can look it up.

The allocation stack switch at xfs_bmapi_allocate() has served it's
purpose, but is no longer a sufficient solution to the stack usage
problem we have in the XFS allocation path.
Whilst the kernel stack size is now 16k, that is not a valid reason
for undoing all our "keep stack usage down" modifications. What it
does allow us to do is have the freedom to refine and perfect the
modifications knowing that if we get it wrong it won't blow up in
our faces - we have a safety net now.
This is important because we still have the issue of older kernels
having smaller stacks and that they are still supported and are
demonstrating a wide range of different stack overflows. Red Hat
has several open bugs for allocation based stack overflows from
directory modifications and direct IO block allocation and these
problems still need to be solved. If we can solve them upstream,
then distro's won't need to bake their own unique solutions.
To that end, I've observed that every allocation based stack
overflow report has had a specific characteristic - it has happened
during or directly after a bmap btree block split. That event
requires a new block to be allocated to the tree, and so we
effectively stack one allocation stack on top of another, and that's
when we get into trouble.
A further observation is that bmap btree block splits are much rarer
than writeback allocation - over a range of different workloads I've
observed the ratio of bmap btree inserts to splits ranges from 100:1
(xfstests run) to 10000:1 (local VM image server with sparse files
that range in the hundreds of thousands to millions of extents).
Either way, bmap btree split events are much, much rarer than
allocation events.
Finally, we have to move the kswapd state to the allocation workqueue
work when allocation is done on behalf of kswapd. This is proving to
cause significant perturbation in performance under memory pressure
and appears to be generating allocation deadlock warnings under some
workloads, so avoiding the use of a workqueue for the majority of
kswapd writeback allocation will minimise the impact of such
behaviour.
Hence it makes sense to move the stack switch to xfs_btree_split()
and only do it for bmap btree splits. Stack switches during
allocation will be much rarer, so there won't be significant
performacne overhead caused by switching stacks. The worse case
stack from all allocation paths will be split, not just writeback.
And the majority of memory allocations will be done in the correct
context (e.g. kswapd) without causing additional latency, and so we
simplify the memory reclaim interactions between processes,
workqueues and kswapd.
The worst stack I've been able to generate with this patch in place
is 5600 bytes deep. It's very revealing because we exit XFS at:
37) 1768 64 kmem_cache_alloc+0x13b/0x170
about 1800 bytes of stack consumed, and the remaining 3800 bytes
(and 36 functions) is memory reclaim, swap and the IO stack. And
this occurs in the inode allocation from an open(O_CREAT) syscall,
not writeback.
The amount of stack being used is much less than I've previously be
able to generate - fs_mark testing has been able to generate stack
usage of around 7k without too much trouble; with this patch it's
only just getting to 5.5k. This is primarily because the metadata
allocation paths (e.g. directory blocks) are no longer causing
double splits on the same stack, and hence now stack tracing is
showing swapping being the worst stack consumer rather than XFS.
Performance of fs_mark inode create workloads is unchanged.
Performance of fs_mark async fsync workloads is consistently good
with context switches reduced by around 150,000/s (30%).
Performance of dbench, streaming IO and postmark is unchanged.
Allocation deadlock warnings have not been seen on the workloads
that generated them since adding this patch.
