2014-09-24blk-mq, percpu_ref: implement a kludge for SCSI blk-mq stall during probeTejun Heo
blk-mq uses percpu_ref for its usage counter which tracks the number of in-flight commands and used to synchronously drain the queue on freeze. percpu_ref shutdown takes measureable wallclock time as it involves a sched RCU grace period. This means that draining a blk-mq takes measureable wallclock time. One would think that this shouldn't matter as queue shutdown should be a rare event which takes place asynchronously w.r.t. userland. Unfortunately, SCSI probing involves synchronously setting up and then tearing down a lot of request_queues back-to-back for non-existent LUNs. This means that SCSI probing may take more than ten seconds when scsi-mq is used. This will be properly fixed by implementing a mechanism to keep q->mq_usage_counter in atomic mode till genhd registration; however, that involves rather big updates to percpu_ref which is difficult to apply late in the devel cycle (v3.17-rc6 at the moment). As a stop-gap measure till the proper fix can be implemented in the next cycle, this patch introduces __percpu_ref_kill_expedited() and makes blk_mq_freeze_queue() use it. This is heavy-handed but should work for testing the experimental SCSI blk-mq implementation.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) If the user gives us a msg_namelen of 0, don't try to interpret anything pointed to by msg_name. From Ani Sinha. 2) Fix some bnx2i/bnx2fc randconfig compilation errors. The gist of the issue is that we firstly have drivers that span both SCSI and networking. And at the top of that chain of dependencies we have things like SCSI_FC_ATTRS and SCSI_NETLINK which are selected. But since select is a sledgehammer and ignores dependencies, everything to select's SCSI_FC_ATTRS and/or SCSI_NETLINK has to also explicitly select their dependencies and so on and so forth. Generally speaking 'select' is supposed to only be used for child nodes, those which have no dependencies of their own. And this whole chain of dependencies in the scsi layer violates that rather strongly. So just make SCSI_NETLINK depend upon it's dependencies, and so on and so forth for the things selecting it (either directly or indirectly). From Anish Bhatt and Randy Dunlap. 3) Fix generation of blackhole routes in IPSEC, from Steffen Klassert. 4) Actually notice netdev feature changes in rtl_open() code, from Hayes Wang. 5) Fix divide by zero in bond enslaving, from Nikolay Aleksandrov. 6) Missing memory barrier in sunvnet driver, from David Stevens. 7) Don't leave anycast addresses around when ipv6 interface is destroyed, from Sabrina Dubroca. 8) Don't call efx_{arch}_filter_sync_rx_mode before addr_list_lock is initialized in SFC driver, from Edward Cree. 9) Fix missing DMA error checking in 3c59x, from Neal Horman. 10) Openvswitch doesn't emit OVS_FLOW_CMD_NEW notifications accidently, fix from Samuel Gauthier. 11) pch_gbe needs to select NET_PTP_CLASSIFY otherwise we can get a build error. 12) Fix macvlan regression wherein we stopped emitting broadcast/multicast frames over software devices. From Nicolas Dichtel. 13) Fix infiniband bug due to unintended overflow of skb->cb[], from Eric Dumazet.

2014-09-13Make ARCH_HAS_FAST_MULTIPLIER a real config variableLinus Torvalds
It used to be an ad-hoc hack defined by the x86 version of <asm/bitops.h> that enabled a couple of library routines to know whether an integer multiply is faster than repeated shifts and additions. This just makes it use the real Kconfig system instead, and makes x86 (which was the only architecture that did this) select the option. NOTE! Even for x86, this really is kind of wrong. If we cared, we would probably not enable this for builds optimized for netburst (P4), where shifts-and-adds are generally faster than multiplies. This patch does *not* change that kind of logic, though, it is purely a syntactic change with no code changes. This was triggered by the fact that we have other places that really want to know "do I want to expand multiples by constants by hand or not", particularly the hash generation code.

2014-09-12KEYS: Fix termination condition in assoc array garbage collectionDavid Howells
This fixes CVE-2014-3631. It is possible for an associative array to end up with a shortcut node at the root of the tree if there are more than fan-out leaves in the tree, but they all crowd into the same slot in the lowest level (ie. they all have the same first nibble of their index keys). When assoc_array_gc() returns back up the tree after scanning some leaves, it can fall off of the root and crash because it assumes that the back pointer from a shortcut (after label ascend_old_tree) must point to a normal node - which isn't true of a shortcut node at the root. Should we find we're ascending rootwards over a shortcut, we should check to see if the backpointer is zero - and if it is, we have completed the scan. This particular bug cannot occur if the root node is not a shortcut - ie. if you have fewer than 17 keys in a keyring or if you have at least two keys that sit into separate slots (eg. a keyring and a non keyring). This can be reproduced by: ring=`keyctl newring bar @s` for ((i=1; i<=18; i++)); do last_key=`keyctl newring foo$i $ring`; done keyctl timeout $last_key 2 Doing this: echo 3 >/proc/sys/kernel/keys/gc_delay first will speed things up. If we do fall off of the top of the tree, we get the following oops: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000018 IP: [<ffffffff8136cea7>] assoc_array_gc+0x2f7/0x540 PGD dae15067 PUD cfc24067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: xt_nat xt_mark nf_conntrack_netbios_ns nf_conntrack_broadcast ip6t_rpfilter ip6t_REJECT xt_conntrack ebtable_nat ebtable_broute bridge stp llc ebtable_filter ebtables ip6table_ni CPU: 0 PID: 26011 Comm: kworker/0:1 Not tainted 3.14.9-200.fc20.x86_64 #1 Hardware name: Bochs Bochs, BIOS Bochs 01/01/2011 Workqueue: events key_garbage_collector task: ffff8800918bd580 ti: ffff8800aac14000 task.ti: ffff8800aac14000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8136cea7>] [<ffffffff8136cea7>] assoc_array_gc+0x2f7/0x540 RSP: 0018:ffff8800aac15d40 EFLAGS: 00010206 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: ffff8800aaecacc0 RDX: ffff8800daecf440 RSI: 0000000000000001 RDI: ffff8800aadc2bc0 RBP: ffff8800aac15da8 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 0000000000000003 R10: ffffffff8136ccc7 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000070 R15: 0000000000000001 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88011fc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 0000000000000018 CR3: 00000000db10d000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 Stack: ffff8800aac15d50 0000000000000011 ffff8800aac15db8 ffffffff812e2a70 ffff880091a00600 0000000000000000 ffff8800aadc2bc3 00000000cd42c987 ffff88003702df20 ffff88003702dfa0 0000000053b65c09 ffff8800aac15fd8 Call Trace: [<ffffffff812e2a70>] ? keyring_detect_cycle_iterator+0x30/0x30 [<ffffffff812e3e75>] keyring_gc+0x75/0x80 [<ffffffff812e1424>] key_garbage_collector+0x154/0x3c0 [<ffffffff810a67b6>] process_one_work+0x176/0x430 [<ffffffff810a744b>] worker_thread+0x11b/0x3a0 [<ffffffff810a7330>] ? rescuer_thread+0x3b0/0x3b0 [<ffffffff810ae1a8>] kthread+0xd8/0xf0 [<ffffffff810ae0d0>] ? insert_kthread_work+0x40/0x40 [<ffffffff816ffb7c>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff810ae0d0>] ? insert_kthread_work+0x40/0x40 Code: 08 4c 8b 22 0f 84 bf 00 00 00 41 83 c7 01 49 83 e4 fc 41 83 ff 0f 4c 89 65 c0 0f 8f 5a fe ff ff 48 8b 45 c0 4d 63 cf 49 83 c1 02 <4e> 8b 34 c8 4d 85 f6 0f 84 be 00 00 00 41 f6 c6 01 0f 84 92 RIP [<ffffffff8136cea7>] assoc_array_gc+0x2f7/0x540 RSP <ffff8800aac15d40> CR2: 0000000000000018 ---[ end trace 1129028a088c0cbd ]--- Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Acked-by: Don Zickus <dzickus@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: James Morris <james.l.morris@oracle.com>

2014-09-03rhashtable: fix lockdep splat in rhashtable_destroy()Pablo Neira Ayuso
No need for rht_dereference() from rhashtable_destroy() since the existing callers don't hold the mutex when invoking this function from: 1) Netlink, this is called in case of memory allocation errors in the initialization path, no nl_sk_hash_lock is held. 2) Netfilter, this is called from the rcu callback, no nfnl_lock is held either. I think it's reasonable to assume that the caller has to make sure that no hash resizing may happen before releasing the bucket array. Therefore, the caller should be responsible for releasing this in a safe way, document this to make people aware of it.

2014-08-08initramfs: support initramfs that is bigger than 2GiBYinghai Lu
Now with 64bit bzImage and kexec tools, we support ramdisk that size is bigger than 2g, as we could put it above 4G. Found compressed initramfs image could not be decompressed properly. It turns out that image length is int during decompress detection, and it will become < 0 when length is more than 2G. Furthermore, during decompressing len as int is used for inbuf count, that has problem too. Change len to long, that should be ok as on 32 bit platform long is 32bits. Tested with following compressed initramfs image as root with kexec. gzip, bzip2, xz, lzma, lzop, lz4. run time for populate_rootfs(): size name Nehalem-EX Westmere-EX Ivybridge-EX 9034400256 root_img : 26s 24s 30s 3561095057 root_img.lz4 : 28s 27s 27s 3459554629 root_img.lzo : 29s 29s 28s 3219399480 root_img.gz : 64s 62s 49s 2251594592 root_img.xz : 262s 260s 183s 2226366598 root_img.lzma: 386s 376s 277s 2901482513 root_img.bz2 : 635s 599s Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> Cc: "H.

2014-08-08lib/idr.c: fix out-of-bounds pointer dereferenceAndrey Ryabinin
I'm working on address sanitizer project for kernel. Recently we started experiments with stack instrumentation, to detect out-of-bounds read/write bugs on stack. Just after booting I've hit out-of-bounds read on stack in idr_for_each (and in __idr_remove_all as well): struct idr_layer **paa = &pa[0]; while (id >= 0 && id <= max) { ... while (n < fls(id)) { n += IDR_BITS; p = *--paa; <--- here we are reading pa[-1] value. } } Despite the fact that after this dereference we are exiting out of loop and never use p, such behaviour is undefined and should be avoided. Fix this by moving pointer derference to the beggining of the loop, right before we will use it.

2014-08-06lib: bitmap: make nbits parameter of bitmap_empty unsignedRasmus Villemoes
Many functions in lib/bitmap.c start with an expression such as lim = bits/BITS_PER_LONG. Since bits has type (signed) int, and since gcc cannot know that it is in fact non-negative, it generates worse code than it could.

No idea why bitmap_weight suddenly appears.] While 163 bytes treewide is insignificant, I believe the bitmap functions are often called with locks held, so saving even a few cycles might be worth it. While making these changes, I found a few other things that might be worth including. 16,17,18 are actual bug fixes. The rest shouldn't change the behaviour of any of the functions, provided no-one passed negative nbits values. If something should come up, it should be fairly bisectable. A few issues I thought about, but didn't know what to do with: * Many of the functions misbehave if nbits is compile-time 0; the out-of-line functions generally handle 0 correctly. bitmap_fill() is particularly bad, whether the 0 is known at compile time or not. It would probably be nice to add detection of at least compile-time 0 and handle that appropriately. * I didn't change __bitmap_shift_{left,right} to use unsigned because I want to fully understand why the algorithm works before making that change. However, AFAICT, they behave correctly for all (positive) shift amounts. This is not the case for the small_const_nbits versions. If for example nbits = n = BITS_PER_LONG, the shift operators turn into no-ops (at least on x86), so one get *dst = *src, whereas one would expect to get *dst=0. That difference in behaviour is somewhat annoying. This patch (of 18): The compiler can generate slightly smaller and simpler code when it knows that "nbits" is non-negative. Since no-one passes a negative bit-count, this shouldn't affect the semantics.

2014-08-06lib: list_sort.c: Limit number of unused cmp callbacksRasmus Villemoes
The helper merge_and_restore_back_links() makes sure to call the caller's cmp function during the final ->prev pointer fixup, so that the cmp function may call cond_resched(). However, if the cmp function does not call cond_resched() at all, this is entirely redundant. If it does, doing at least two function calls for every two pointer assignments is a bit excessive. This patch limits the calls to once for every 256 iterations.

2014-08-06lib: list_sort_test(): simplify and harden cleanupRasmus Villemoes
There is no reason to maintain the list structure while freeing the debug elements. Aside from the redundant pointer manipulations, it is also inefficient from a locality-of-reference viewpoint, since they are visited in a random order (wrt. the order they were allocated). Furthermore, if we jumped to exit: after detecting list corruption, it is actually dangerous. So just free the elements in the order they were allocated, using the backing array elts. Allocate that using kcalloc(), so that if allocation of one of the debug element fails, we just end up calling kfree(NULL) for the trailing elements. Minor details: Use sizeof(*elts) instead of sizeof(void *), and return err immediately when allocation of elts fails, to avoid introducing another label just before the final return statement.
