  • IBM reported a deadlock in select_parent(). This was found to be caused
    by taking rename_lock when already locked when restarting the tree
    traversal.

    There are two cases when the traversal needs to be restarted:

    1) concurrent d_move(); this can only happen when not already locked,
    since taking rename_lock protects against concurrent d_move().

    2) racing with final d_put() on child just at the moment of ascending
    to parent; rename_lock doesn't protect against this rare race, so it
    can happen when already locked.

    Because of case 2, we need to be able to handle restarting the traversal
    when rename_lock is already held. This patch fixes all three callers of
    try_to_ascend().

    IBM reported that the deadlock is gone with this patch.

    [ I rewrote the patch to be smaller and just do the "goto again" if the
    lock was already held, but credit goes to Miklos for the real work.

  • Sasha Levin has been running trinity in a KVM tools guest, and was able
    to trigger the BUG_ON() at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:279 (verifying the range of
    the memory type). The call trace showed that it was mtdchar_mmap() that
    created an invalid remap_pfn_range().

    The problem is that mtdchar_mmap() does various really odd and subtle
    things with the vma page offset etc, and uses the wrong types (and the
    wrong overflow) detection for it.

    For example, the page offset may well be 32-bit on a 32-bit
    architecture, but after shifting it up by PAGE_SHIFT, we need to use a
    potentially 64-bit resource_size_t to correctly hold the full value.

    Also, we need to check that the vma length plus offset doesn't overflow
    before we check that it is smaller than the length of the mtdmap region.

    This fixes things up and tries to make the code a bit easier to read.

  • Speculative cache pagecache lookups can elevate the refcount from
    under us, so avoid the false positive. If the refcount is < 2 we'll be
    notified by a VM_BUG_ON in put_page_testzero as there are two
    put_page(src_page) in a row before returning from this function.

  • The new IOMMU groups code in the AMD IOMMU driver makes the
    assumption that there is a pci_dev struct available for all
    device-ids listed in the IVRS ACPI table. Unfortunatly this
    assumption is not true and so this code causes a NULL
    pointer dereference at boot on some systems.

    Fix it by making sure the given pointer is never NULL when
    passed to the group specific code. The real fix is larger
    and will be queued for v3.7.

  • In the device close path, 'qlcnic_fw_destroy_ctx' and

    'qlcnic_poll_rsp' are called with 'adapter->tx_clean_lock' spin lock

  • The userspace part of UML uses the asm-offsets.h generator mechanism to
    create definitions for UM_KERN_ that match the in-kernel
    KERN_ constant definitions.

    As of commit 04d2c8c83d0e3ac5f78aeede51babb3236200112 ("printk: convert
    the format for KERN_ to a 2 byte pattern"), KERN_ is no
    longer expanded to the literal '""', but to '"\001" "LEVEL"', i.e.
    it contains two parts.

    However, the combo of DEFINE_STR() in
    arch/x86/um/shared/sysdep/kernel-offsets.h and sed-y in Kbuild doesn't
    support string literals consisting of multiple parts. Hence for all
    UM_KERN_ definitions, only the SOH character is retained in the actual
    definition, while the remainder ends up in the comment. E.g. in
    include/generated/asm-offsets.h we get

    #define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" /* "6" KERN_INFO */

    instead of

    #define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" "6" /* KERN_INFO */

    This causes spurious '^A' output in some kernel messages:

    Calibrating delay loop... 4640.76 BogoMIPS (lpj=23203840)
    pid_max: default: 32768 minimum: 301

    ^AChecking that host ptys support output SIGIO...Yes

    ^AUsing 2.6 host AIO
    NET: Registered protocol family 16
    bio: create slab at 0
    Switching to clocksource itimer

    To fix this:
    - Move the mapping from UM_KERN_ to KERN_ from
    arch/um/include/shared/common-offsets.h to
    arch/um/include/shared/user.h, which is preincluded for all userspace
    parts,
    - Preinclude include/linux/kern_levels.h for all userspace parts, to
    obtain the in-kernel KERN_ constant definitions. This doesn't
    violate the kernel/userspace separation, as include/linux/kern_levels.h
    is self-contained and doesn't expose any other kernel internals.
    - Remove the now unused STR() and DEFINE_STR() macros.

  • In case of error, the function of_phy_connect() returns NULL
    pointer not ERR_PTR(). The IS_ERR() test in the return value
    check should be replaced with NULL test.

  • Pablo Neira Ayuso says:

    ====================
    If time allows, I'd appreciate if you can take the following fix
    for the xt_limit match.

    As Jan indicates, random things may occur while using the xt_limit
    match due to use of uninitialized memory.

  • This patch (as1607) fixes a race that can occur if a USB host
    controller is removed while a process is reading the
    /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices file.

    The usb_device_read() routine uses the bus->root_hub pointer to
    determine whether or not the root hub is registered. The is not a
    valid test, because the pointer is set before the root hub gets
    registered and remains set even after the root hub is unregistered and
    deallocated. As a result, usb_device_read() or usb_device_dump() can
    access freed memory, causing an oops.

    The patch changes the test to use the hcd->rh_registered flag, which
    does get set and cleared at the appropriate times. It also makes sure
    to hold the usb_bus_list_lock mutex while setting the flag, so that
    usb_device_read() will become aware of new root hubs as soon as they
    are registered.

    Commit 6fffb77c (USB: ohci-at91: fix PIO handling in relation with number of
    ports) started setting unused pins to EINVAL. But this exposed a bug in the
    ohci_hcd_at91_overcurrent_irq function where the gpio was used without being
    checked to see if it is valid.

    This patches fixed the issue by adding the gpio valid check.
