2013-04-16vm: add vm_iomap_memory() helper functionLinus Torvalds
Various drivers end up replicating the code to mmap() their memory buffers into user space, and our core memory remapping function may be very flexible but it is unnecessarily complicated for the common cases to use. Our internal VM uses pfn's ("page frame numbers") which simplifies things for the VM, and allows us to pass physical addresses around in a denser and more efficient format than passing a "phys_addr_t" around, and having to shift it up and down by the page size. But it just means that drivers end up doing that shifting instead at the interface level. It also means that drivers end up mucking around with internal VM things like the vma details (vm_pgoff, vm_start/end) way more than they really need to. So this just exports a function to map a certain physical memory range into user space (using a phys_addr_t based interface that is much more natural for a driver) and hides all the complexity from the driver. Some drivers will still end up tweaking the vm_page_prot details for things like prefetching or cacheability etc, but that's actually relevant to the driver, rather than caring about what the page offset of the mapping is into the particular IO memory region.

2013-04-16ARM: KVM: fix L_PTE_S2_RDWR to actually be Read/WriteMarc Zyngier
Looks like our L_PTE_S2_RDWR definition is slightly wrong, and is actually write only (see ARM ARM Table B3-9, Stage 2 control of access permissions). Didn't make a difference for normal pages, as we OR the flags together, but I'm still wondering how it worked for Stage-2 mapped devices, such as the GIC. Brown paper bag time, again.

Luckilly enough, the CONFIG_NR_CPUS=0 patch hasn't been merged yet (https://lkml.org/lkml/diff/2012/3/31/131/1), so the bug wasn't noticed. Just give it a break!

2013-04-16perf/x86: Fix offcore_rsp valid mask for SNB/IVBStephane Eranian
The valid mask for both offcore_response_0 and offcore_response_1 was wrong for SNB/SNB-EP, IVB/IVB-EP. It was possible to write to reserved bit and cause a GP fault crashing the kernel. This patch fixes the problem by correctly marking the reserved bits in the valid mask for all the processors mentioned above. A distinction between desktop and server parts is introduced because bits 24-30 are only available on the server parts. This version of the patch is just a rebase to perf/urgent tree and should apply to older kernels as well.

2013-04-15efi: Distinguish between "remaining space" and actually used spaceMatthew Garrett
EFI implementations distinguish between space that is actively used by a variable and space that merely hasn't been garbage collected yet. Space that hasn't yet been garbage collected isn't available for use and so isn't counted in the remaining_space field returned by QueryVariableInfo(). Combined with commit 68d9298 this can cause problems. Some implementations don't garbage collect until the remaining space is smaller than the maximum variable size, and as a result check_var_size() will always fail once more than 50% of the variable store has been used even if most of that space is marked as available for garbage collection. The user is unable to create new variables, and deleting variables doesn't increase the remaining space. The problem that 68d9298 was attempting to avoid was one where certain platforms fail if the actively used space is greater than 50% of the available storage space. We should be able to calculate that by simply summing the size of each available variable and subtracting that from the total storage space. With luck this will fix the problem described in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55471 without permitting damage to occur to the machines 68d9298 was attempting to fix.

2013-04-15efi: Pass boot services variable info to runtime codeMatthew Garrett
EFI variables can be flagged as being accessible only within boot services. This makes it awkward for us to figure out how much space they use at runtime. In theory we could figure this out by simply comparing the results from QueryVariableInfo() to the space used by all of our variables, but that fails if the platform doesn't garbage collect on every boot. Thankfully, calling QueryVariableInfo() while still inside boot services gives a more reliable answer. This patch passes that information from the EFI boot stub up to the efi platform code.

2013-04-15net: mvneta: fix improper tx queue usage in mvneta_tx()Willy Tarreau
mvneta_tx() was using a static tx queue number causing crashes as soon as a little bit of traffic was sent via the interface, because it is normally expected that the same queue should be used as in dev_queue_xmit(). As suggested by Ben Hutchings, let's use skb_get_queue_mapping() to get the proper Tx queue number, and use alloc_etherdev_mqs() instead of alloc_etherdev_mq() to create the queues. Both my Mirabox and my OpenBlocks AX3 used to crash without this patch and don't anymore with it. The issue appeared in 3.8 but became more visible after the fix allowing GSO to be enabled. Original work was done by Dmitri Epshtein and Thomas Petazzoni. I just adapted it to take care of Ben's comments.

2013-04-14userns: Changing any namespace id mappings should require privilegesAndy Lutomirski
Changing uid/gid/projid mappings doesn't change your id within the namespace; it reconfigures the namespace. Unprivileged programs should *not* be able to write these files.

I have tested this code and verified that setting /proc/<pid>/uid_map fails when an unprivileged user opens the file and a privielged user attempts to set the mapping, that unprivileged users can still map their own id, and that a privileged users can still setup an arbitrary mapping.

2013-04-13kobject: fix kset_find_obj() race with concurrent last kobject_put()Linus Torvalds
Anatol Pomozov identified a race condition that hits module unloading and re-loading. To quote Anatol: "This is a race codition that exists between kset_find_obj() and kobject_put(). kset_find_obj() might return kobject that has refcount equal to 0 if this kobject is freeing by kobject_put() in other thread. Here is timeline for the crash in case if kset_find_obj() searches for an object tht nobody holds and other thread is doing kobject_put() on the same kobject: THREAD A (calls kset_find_obj()) THREAD B (calls kobject_put()) splin_lock() atomic_dec_return(kobj->kref), counter gets zero here ... starts kobject cleanup .... spin_lock() // WAIT thread A in kobj_kset_leave() iterate over kset->list atomic_inc(kobj->kref) (counter becomes 1) spin_unlock() spin_lock() // taken // it does not know that thread A increased counter so it remove obj from list spin_unlock() vfree(module) // frees module object with containing kobj // kobj points to freed memory area!! kobject_put(kobj) // OOPS!!!! The race above happens because module.c tries to use kset_find_obj() when somebody unloads module. The module.c code was introduced in commit 6494a93d55fa" Anatol supplied a patch specific for module.c that worked around the problem by simply not using kset_find_obj() at all, but rather than make a local band-aid, this just fixes kset_find_obj() to be thread-safe using the proper model of refusing the get a new reference if the refcount has already dropped to zero. See examples of this proper refcount handling not only in the kref documentation, but in various other equivalent uses of this pattern by grepping for atomic_inc_not_zero(). [ Side note: the module race does indicate that module loading and unloading is not properly serialized wrt sysfs information using the module mutex.

The mvmdio driver uses the phylib API, so it should select the PHYLIB symbol, otherwise, a build with mvmdio (but without mvneta) fails to build with undefined symbols such as mdiobus_unregister, mdiobus_free, etc. The mvneta driver does not use the phylib API directly, so it does not need to select PHYLIB. It already selects the mvmdio driver anyway. Historically, this problem is due to the fact that the PHY handling was originally part of mvneta, and was later moved to a separate driver, without updating the Kconfig select statements accordingly. And since there was no functional reason to use mvmdio without mvneta, this case was not tested.

2013-04-13Btrfs: make sure nbytes are right after log replayJosef Bacik
While trying to track down a tree log replay bug I noticed that fsck was always complaining about nbytes not being right for our fsynced file. That is because the new fsync stuff doesn't wait for ordered extents to complete, so the inodes nbytes are not necessarily updated properly when we log it. So to fix this we need to set nbytes to whatever it is on the inode that is on disk, so when we replay the extents we can just add the bytes that are being added as we replay the extent. This makes it work for the case that we have the wrong nbytes or the case that we logged everything and nbytes is actually correct. With this I'm no longer getting nbytes errors out of btrfsck.

2013-04-12x86-32: Fix possible incomplete TLB invalidate with PAE pagetablesDave Hansen
This patch attempts to fix: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56461 The symptom is a crash and messages like this: chrome: Corrupted page table at address 34a03000 *pdpt = 0000000000000000 *pde = 0000000000000000 Bad pagetable: 000f [#1] PREEMPT SMP Ingo guesses this got introduced by commit 611ae8e3f520 ("x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range support for x86") since that code started to free unused pagetables. On x86-32 PAE kernels, that new code has the potential to free an entire PMD page and will clear one of the four page-directory-pointer-table (aka pgd_t entries). The hardware aggressively "caches" these top-level entries and invlpg does not actually affect the CPU's copy. If we clear one we *HAVE* to do a full TLB flush, otherwise we might continue using a freed pmd page. (note, we do this properly on the population side in pud_populate()). This patch tracks whenever we clear one of these entries in the 'struct mmu_gather', and ensures that we follow up with a full tlb flush. BTW, I disassembled and checked that: if (tlb->fullmm == 0) and if (!tlb->fullmm && !tlb->need_flush_all) generate essentially the same code, so there should be zero impact there to the !PAE case.
