This reverts commit 3e1a878b7ccdb31da6d9d2b855c72ad87afeba3f.
It came in very late, and already has one reported failure: Sitsofe
reports that the current tree fails to boot on his EeePC, and bisected
it down to this. Rather than waste time trying to figure out what's
wrong, just revert it.

Pull x86 fixes from Peter Anvin:
"A significantly larger than I'd like set of patches for just below the
wire. All of these, however, fix real problems.
The one thing that is genuinely scary in here is the change of SMP
initialization, but that *does* fix a confirmed hang when booting
virtual machines.
There is also a patch to actually do the right thing about not
offlining a CPU when there are not enough interrupt vectors available
in the system; the accounting was done incorrectly. The worst case
for that patch is that we fail to offline CPUs when we should (the new
code is strictly more conservative than the old), so is not
particularly risky.
Most of the rest is minor stuff; the EFI patches are all about
exporting correct information to boot loaders and kexec"

commit 7d453eee36ae ("x86/efi: Wire up CONFIG_EFI_MIXED") introduced a
regression for the functionality to load kernels above 4G. The relevant
(incorrect) reasoning behind this change can be seen in the commit
message,
"The xloadflags field in the bzImage header is also updated to reflect
that the kernel supports both entry points by setting both of
XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_32 and XLF_EFI_HANDOVER_64 when CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y.
XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G is disabled so that the kernel text is
guaranteed to be addressable with 32-bits."
This is obviously bogus since 32-bit EFI loaders will never place the
kernel above the 4G mark. So this restriction is entirely unnecessary.
But things are worse than that - since we want to encourage people to
always compile with CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=y so that their kernels work out of
the box for both 32-bit and 64-bit firmware, commit 7d453eee36ae
effectively disables XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G completely.
Remove the overzealous and superfluous restriction and restore the
XLF_CAN_BE_LOADED_ABOVE_4G functionality.

The age table walker doesn't check non-present hugetlb entry in common
path, so hugetlb_entry() callbacks must check it. The reason for this
behavior is that some callers want to handle it in its own way.
[ I think that reason is bogus, btw - it should just do what the regular
code does, which is to call the "pte_hole()" function for such hugetlb
entries - Linus]
However, some callers don't check it now, which causes unpredictable
result, for example when we have a race between migrating hugepage and
reading /proc/pid/numa_maps. This patch fixes it by adding !pte_present
checks on buggy callbacks.
This bug exists for years and got visible by introducing hugepage
migration.
ChangeLog v2:
- fix if condition (check !pte_present() instead of pte_present())

While working address sanitizer for kernel I've discovered
use-after-free bug in __put_anon_vma.
For the last anon_vma, anon_vma->root freed before child anon_vma.
Later in anon_vma_free(anon_vma) we are referencing to already freed
anon_vma->root to check rwsem.
This fixes it by freeing the child anon_vma before freeing
anon_vma->root.

Merge futex fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"So with more awake and less futex wreckaged brain, I went through my
list of points again and came up with the following 4 patches.
1) Prevent pi requeueing on the same futex
I kept Kees check for uaddr1 == uaddr2 as a early check for private
futexes and added a key comparison to both futex_requeue and
futex_wait_requeue_pi.
Sebastian, sorry for the confusion yesterday night. I really
misunderstood your question.
You are right the check is pointless for shared futexes where the
same physical address is mapped to two different virtual addresses.
2) Sanity check atomic acquisiton in futex_lock_pi_atomic
That's basically what Darren suggested.
I just simplified it to use futex_top_waiter() to find kernel
internal state. If state is found return -EINVAL and do not bother
to fix up the user space variable. It's corrupted already.
3) Ensure state consistency in futex_unlock_pi
The code is silly versus the owner died bit. There is no point to
preserve it on unlock when the user space thread owns the futex.
What's worse is that it does not update the user space value when
the owner died bit is set. So the kernel itself creates observable
inconsistency.
Another "optimization" is to retry an atomic unlock. That's
pointless as in a sane environment user space would not call into
that code if it could have unlocked it atomically. So we always
check whether there is kernel state around and only if there is
none, we do the unlock by setting the user space value to 0.
4) Sanitize lookup_pi_state
lookup_pi_state is ambigous about TID == 0 in the user space value.
This can be a valid state even if there is kernel state on this
uaddr, but we miss a few corner case checks.
I tried to come up with a smaller solution hacking the checks into
the current cruft, but it turned out to be ugly as hell and I got
more confused than I was before. So I rewrote the sanity checks
along the state documentation with awful lots of commentry"
* emailed patches from Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>:
futex: Make lookup_pi_state more robust
futex: Always cleanup owner tid in unlock_pi
futex: Validate atomic acquisition in futex_lock_pi_atomic()
futex-prevent-requeue-pi-on-same-futex.patch futex: Forbid uaddr == uaddr2 in futex_requeue(..., requeue_pi=1)
|
|
The current implementation of lookup_pi_state has ambigous handling of
the TID value 0 in the user space futex. We can get into the kernel
even if the TID value is 0, because either there is a stale waiters bit
or the owner died bit is set or we are called from the requeue_pi path
or from user space just for fun.
The current code avoids an explicit sanity check for pid = 0 in case
that kernel internal state (waiters) are found for the user space
address. This can lead to state leakage and worse under some
circumstances.
Handle the cases explicit:
Waiter | pi_state | pi->owner | uTID | uODIED | ?
[1] NULL | --- | --- | 0 | 0/1 | Valid
[2] NULL | --- | --- | >0 | 0/1 | Valid
[3] Found | NULL | -- | Any | 0/1 | Invalid
[4] Found | Found | NULL | 0 | 1 | Valid
[5] Found | Found | NULL | >0 | 1 | Invalid
[6] Found | Found | task | 0 | 1 | Valid
[7] Found | Found | NULL | Any | 0 | Invalid
[8] Found | Found | task | ==taskTID | 0/1 | Valid
[9] Found | Found | task | 0 | 0 | Invalid
[10] Found | Found | task | !=taskTID | 0/1 | Invalid
[1] Indicates that the kernel can acquire the futex atomically. We
came came here due to a stale FUTEX_WAITERS/FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit.
[2] Valid, if TID does not belong to a kernel thread. If no matching
thread is found then it indicates that the owner TID has died.
[3] Invalid. The waiter is queued on a non PI futex
[4] Valid state after exit_robust_list(), which sets the user space
value to FUTEX_WAITERS | FUTEX_OWNER_DIED.
[5] The user space value got manipulated between exit_robust_list()
and exit_pi_state_list()
[6] Valid state after exit_pi_state_list() which sets the new owner in
the pi_state but cannot access the user space value.
[7] pi_state->owner can only be NULL when the OWNER_DIED bit is set.
[8] Owner and user space value match
[9] There is no transient state which sets the user space TID to 0
except exit_robust_list(), but this is indicated by the
FUTEX_OWNER_DIED bit. See [4]
[10] There is no transient state which leaves owner and user space
TID out of sync.

If the owner died bit is set at futex_unlock_pi, we currently do not
cleanup the user space futex. So the owner TID of the current owner
(the unlocker) persists. That's observable inconsistant state,
especially when the ownership of the pi state got transferred.
Clean it up unconditionally.

We need to protect the atomic acquisition in the kernel against rogue
user space which sets the user space futex to 0, so the kernel side
acquisition succeeds while there is existing state in the kernel
associated to the real owner.
Verify whether the futex has waiters associated with kernel state. If
it has, return -EINVAL. The state is corrupted already, so no point in
cleaning it up. Subsequent calls will fail as well. Not our problem.

restoring the already corrupted user space state. ]

in futex_requeue(..., requeue_pi=1)
If uaddr == uaddr2, then we have broken the rule of only requeueing from
a non-pi futex to a pi futex with this call. If we attempt this, then
dangling pointers may be left for rt_waiter resulting in an exploitable
condition.
This change brings futex_requeue() in line with futex_wait_requeue_pi()
which performs the same check as per commit 6f7b0a2a5c0f ("futex: Forbid
uaddr == uaddr2 in futex_wait_requeue_pi()")
[ tglx: Compare the resulting keys as well, as uaddrs might be
different depending on the mapping ]

Hang is observed on virtual machines during CPU hotplug,
especially in big guests with many CPUs. (It reproducible
more often if host is over-committed).
It happens because master CPU gives up waiting on
secondary CPU and allows it to run wild. As result
AP causes locking or crashing system. For example
as described here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/3/6/257
If master CPU have sent STARTUP IPI successfully,
and AP signalled to master CPU that it's ready
to start initialization, make master CPU wait
indefinitely till AP is onlined.
To ensure that AP won't ever run wild, make it
wait at early startup till master CPU confirms its
intention to wait for AP. If AP doesn't respond in 10
seconds, the master CPU will timeout and cancel
AP onlining.

Which is caused by the fact that generic_processor_info() allocates
logical CPU id by calling:
cpu = cpumask_next_zero(-1, cpu_present_mask);
which returns id of previously failed to wake up CPU, since its
bit is cleared by do_boot_cpu() and as result register_cpu()
tries to register another CPU with the same id as already
present but failed to be onlined CPU.
Taking in account that AP will not do anything if master CPU
failed to wake it up, there is no reason to mark that AP as not
present and break next cpu hotplug attempts. As a side effect of
not marking AP as not present, user would be allowed to online
it again later.
Also fix memory corruption in acpi_unmap_lsapic()
if during CPU hotplug master CPU failed to wake up AP
it set percpu x86_cpu_to_apicid to BAD_APICID=0xFFFF for AP.
However following attempt to unplug that CPU will lead to
out of bound write access to __apicid_to_node[] which is
32768 items long on x86_64 kernel.
So with above fix of cpu_present_mask make sure that a present
CPU has a valid APIC ID by not setting x86_cpu_to_apicid
to BAD_APICID in do_boot_cpu() on failure and allow
acpi_processor_remove()->acpi_unmap_lsapic() cleanly remove CPU.

tg_set_cfs_bandwidth() sets cfs_b->timer_active to 0 to
force the period timer restart. It's not safe, because
can lead to deadlock, described in commit 927b54fccbf0:
"__start_cfs_bandwidth calls hrtimer_cancel while holding rq->lock,
waiting for the hrtimer to finish. However, if sched_cfs_period_timer
runs for another loop iteration, the hrtimer can attempt to take
rq->lock, resulting in deadlock."
Three CPUs must be involved:
CPU0 CPU1 CPU2
take rq->lock period timer fired
... take cfs_b lock
... ... tg_set_cfs_bandwidth()
throttle_cfs_rq() release cfs_b lock take cfs_b lock
... distribute_cfs_runtime() timer_active = 0
take cfs_b->lock wait for rq->lock ...
__start_cfs_bandwidth()
{wait for timer callback
break if timer_active == 1}
So, CPU0 and CPU1 are deadlocked.
Instead of resetting cfs_b->timer_active, tg_set_cfs_bandwidth can
wait for period timer callbacks (ignoring cfs_b->timer_active) and
restart the timer explicitly.

if user is playing with sched_setaffinity(). Therefore, unlocked
task_rq() access makes the race.
Juri Lelli reports he got this race when dl_bandwidth_enabled()
was not set.
Other thing, pointed by Peter Zijlstra:
"Now I suppose the problem can still actually happen when
you change the root domain and trigger a effective affinity
change that way".
To fix that we do the same as made in __task_rq_lock(). We do not
use __task_rq_lock() itself, because it has a useful lockdep check,
which is not correct in case of dl_task_timer(). We do not need
pi_lock locked here. This case is an exception (PeterZ):
"The only reason we don't strictly need ->pi_lock now is because
we're guaranteed to have p->state == TASK_RUNNING here and are
thus free of ttwu races".

As Peter Zijlstra told me, we have the following path:
do_exit()
exit_itimers()
itimer_delete()
spin_lock_irqsave(&timer->it_lock, &flags);
timer_delete_hook(timer);
kc->timer_del(timer) := posix_cpu_timer_del()
put_task_struct()
__put_task_struct()
task_numa_free()
spin_lock(&grp->lock);
Which means that task_numa_free() can be called with interrupts
disabled, which means that we should not be using spin_lock_irq() but
spin_lock_irqsave() instead. Otherwise we are enabling interrupts while
holding an interrupt unsafe lock!

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu
Pull percpu fix from Tejun Heo:
"It is very late but this is an important percpu-refcount fix from
Sebastian Ott.
The problem is that percpu_ref_*() used __this_cpu_*() instead of
this_cpu_*(). The difference between the two is that the latter is
atomic on the local cpu while the former is not. this_cpu_inc() is
guaranteed to increment the percpu counter on the cpu that the
operation is executed on without any synchronization; however,
__this_cpu_inc() doesn't and if the local cpu invokes the function
from different contexts (e.g. process and irq) of the same CPU, it's
not guaranteed to actually increment as it may be implemented as rmw.
This bug existed from the get-go but it hasn't been noticed earlier
probably because on x86 __this_cpu_inc() is equivalent to
this_cpu_inc() as both get translated into single instruction;
however, s390 uses the generic rmw implementation and gets affected by
the bug. Kudos to Sebastian and Heiko for diagnosing it.
The change is very low risk and fixes a critical issue on the affected
architectures, so I think it's a good candidate for inclusion although
it's very late in the devel cycle. On the other hand, this has been
broken since v3.11, so backporting it through -stable post -rc1 won't
be the end of the world.
I'll ping Christoph whether __this_cpu_*() ops can be better annotated
so that it can trigger lockdep warning when used from multiple
contexts"
* 'for-3.15-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu:
percpu-refcount: fix usage of this_cpu_ops
|
|
The percpu-refcount infrastructure uses the underscore variants of
this_cpu_ops in order to modify percpu reference counters.
(e.g. __this_cpu_inc()).
However the underscore variants do not atomically update the percpu
variable, instead they may be implemented using read-modify-write
semantics (more than one instruction). Therefore it is only safe to
use the underscore variant if the context is always the same (process,
softirq, or hardirq). Otherwise it is possible to lose updates.
This problem is something that Sebastian has seen within the aio
subsystem which uses percpu refcounters both in process and softirq
context leading to reference counts that never dropped to zeroes; even
though the number of "get" and "put" calls matched.
Fix this by using the non-underscore this_cpu_ops variant which
provides correct per cpu atomic semantics and fixes the corrupted
reference counts.

non-idle time tracking from intel_pstate. Dirk Brandewie.
- Changing to fixed point math throughout the busy calculation
introduced rounding errors that adversely affect the accuracy of
intel_pstate's computations. Fix from Dirk Brandewie.
- The PID controller algorithm used by intel_pstate assumes that the
time interval between two adjacent samples will always be the same
which is not the case for deferable timers (used by intel_pstate)
when the system is idle. This leads to inaccurate predictions and
artificially increases convergence times for the minimum P-state.

Fix perf probe to find correct variable DIE which has location or
external instance by tracking down the lexical blocks.
Current die_find_variable() expects that the all variable DIEs
which has DW_TAG_variable have a location. However, since recent
dwarf information may have declaration variable DIEs at the
entry of function (subprogram), die_find_variable() returns it.
To solve this problem, it must track down the DIE tree to find
a DIE which has an actual location or a reference for external
instance.

Fix a segfault bug by asking for variable it doesn't find.
Since the convert_variable() didn't handle error code returned
from convert_variable_location(), it just passed an incomplete
variable field and then a segfault was occurred when formatting
the field.
This fixes that bug by handling success code correctly in
convert_variable(). Other callers of convert_variable_location()
are correctly checking the return code.
This bug was introduced by following commit. But another hidden
erroneous error handling has been there previously (-ENOMEM case).

check_irq_vectors_for_cpu_disable() can overestimate the number of
available interrupt vectors, so the check for cpu down succeeds, but
the actual cpu removal fails.
It iterates from FIRST_EXTERNAL_VECTOR to NR_VECTORS, which is wrong
because the systems vectors are not taken into account.
Limit the search to first_system_vector instead of NR_VECTORS.
The second indicator for vector availability the used_vectors bitmap
is not taken into account at all. So system vectors,
e.g. IA32_SYSCALL_VECTOR (0x80) and IRQ_MOVE_CLEANUP_VECTOR (0x20),
are accounted as available.
Add a check for the used_vectors bitmap and do not account vectors
which are marked there.

This patch fixes a iser-target specific regression introduced in
v3.15-rc6 with:
commit 14f4b54fe38f3a8f8392a50b951c8aa43b63687a
Author: Sagi Grimberg <sagig@mellanox.com>
Date: Tue Apr 29 13:13:47 2014 +0300
Target/iscsi,iser: Avoid accepting transport connections during stop stage
where the change to set iscsi_np->enabled = false within
iscsit_clear_tpg_np_login_thread() meant that a iscsi_np with
two iscsi_tpg_np exports would have it's parent iscsi_np set
to a disabled state, even if other iscsi_tpg_np exports still
existed.
This patch changes iscsit_clear_tpg_np_login_thread() to only
set iscsi_np->enabled = false when shutdown = true, and also
changes iscsit_del_np() to set iscsi_np->enabled = true when
iscsi_np->np_exports is non zero.

In non-leading connection login, iscsi_login_non_zero_tsih_s1() calls
iscsi_change_param_value() with the buffer it uses to hold the login
PDU, not a temporary buffer. This leads to the login header getting
corrupted and login failing for non-leading connections in MC/S.
Fix this by adding a wrapper iscsi_change_param_sprintf() that handles
the temporary buffer itself to avoid confusion. Also handle sending a
reject in case of failure in the wrapper, which lets the calling code
get quite a bit smaller and easier to read.
Finally, bump the size of the temporary buffer from 32 to 64 bytes to be
safe, since "MaxRecvDataSegmentLength=" by itself is 25 bytes; with a
trailing NUL, a value >= 1M will lead to a buffer overrun. (This isn't
the default but we don't need to run right at the ragged edge here)

This patch addresses a bug where an early exception for SCSI WRITE
with ImmediateData=Yes was missing the target_put_sess_cmd() call
to drop the extra se_cmd->cmd_kref reference obtained during the
normal iscsit_setup_scsi_cmd() codepath execution.
This bug was manifesting itself during session shutdown within
isert_cq_rx_comp_err() where target_wait_for_sess_cmds() would
end up waiting indefinately for the last se_cmd->cmd_kref put to
occur for the failed SCSI WRITE + ImmediateData descriptors.
This fix follows what traditional iscsi-target code already does
for the same failure case within iscsit_get_immediate_data().

This bug is discovered by an recent F-RTO issue on tcpm list
https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tcpm/current/msg08794.html
The bug is that currently F-RTO does not use DSACK to undo cwnd in
certain cases: upon receiving an ACK after the RTO retransmission in
F-RTO, and the ACK has DSACK indicating the retransmission is spurious,
the sender only calls tcp_try_undo_loss() if some never retransmisted
data is sacked (FLAG_ORIG_DATA_SACKED).
The correct behavior is to unconditionally call tcp_try_undo_loss so
the DSACK information is used properly to undo the cwnd reduction.

It was possible to get a setuid root or setcap executable to write to
it's stdout or stderr (which has been set made a netlink socket) and
inadvertently reconfigure the networking stack.
To prevent this we check that both the creator of the socket and
the currentl applications has permission to reconfigure the network
stack.
Unfortunately this breaks Zebra which always uses sendto/sendmsg
and creates it's socket without any privileges.
To keep Zebra working don't bother checking if the creator of the
socket has privilege when a destination address is specified. Instead
rely exclusively on the privileges of the sender of the socket.
Note from Andy: This is exactly Eric's code except for some comment
clarifications and formatting fixes. Neither I nor, I think, anyone
else is thrilled with this approach, but I'm hesitant to wait on a
better fix since 3.15 is almost here.
Note to stable maintainers: This is a mess. An earlier series of
patches in 3.15 fix a rather serious security issue (CVE-2014-0181),
but they did so in a way that breaks Zebra. The offending series
includes:
commit aa4cf9452f469f16cea8c96283b641b4576d4a7b
Author: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>
Date: Wed Apr 23 14:28:03 2014 -0700
net: Add variants of capable for use on netlink messages
If a given kernel version is missing that series of fixes, it's
probably worth backporting it and this patch. if that series is
present, then this fix is critical if you care about Zebra.
