  • Rationale:
    Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
    as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

    Deterministic algorithm:
    For each file:
    If not .svg:
    For each line:
    If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
    For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
    If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
    return 200 OK and serve the same content:
    Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

  • The state machine in the hv_utils driver can run out of order in some
    corner cases, e.g. if the kvp daemon doesn't call write() fast enough
    due to some reason, kvp_timeout_func() can run first and move the state
    to HVUTIL_READY; next, when kvp_on_msg() is called it returns -EINVAL
    since kvp_transaction.state is smaller than HVUTIL_USERSPACE_REQ; later,
    the daemon's write() gets an error -EINVAL, and the daemon will exit().

    We can reproduce the issue by sending a SIGSTOP signal to the daemon, wait
    for 1 minute, and send a SIGCONT signal to the daemon: the daemon will
    exit() quickly.

    We can fix the issue by forcing a reset of the device (which means the
    daemon can close() and open() the device again) and doing extra necessary
    clean-up.

  • Commit ea81fdf0981d ("Tools: hv: vss: Skip freezing filesystems backed by
    loop") added skip for filesystems backed by loop device. However, it seems
    the detection of such cases is incomplete.

    It was found that with 'devicemapper' storage driver docker creates the
    following chain:

    NAME MAJ:MIN
    loop0 7:0
    ..docker-8:4-8473394-pool 253:0
    ..docker-8:4-8473394-eac... 253:1

    so when we're looking at the mounted device we see major '253' and not '7'.

    Solve the issue by walking /sys/dev/block/*/slaves chain and checking if
    there's a loop device somewhere.

    Other than that, don't skip mountpoints silently when stat() fails. In case
    e.g. SELinux is failing stat we don't want to skip freezing everything
    without letting user know about the failure.

  • On Hyper-V the VF NIC has the same MAC as the related synthetic NIC.
    VF NIC can work under the synthetic NIC transparently, without its
    own IP address. The existing KVP daemon only gets IP from the first
    NIC matching a MAC address, and may not be able to find the IP in
    this case.

    This patch fixes the problem by searching the NIC matching the MAC,
    and having an IP address. So, the IP address will be found and
    reported to the host successfully.

  • Currently a number of Makefiles break when used with toolchains that
    pass extra flags in CC and other cross-compile related variables (such
    as --sysroot).

    Thus we get this error when we use a toolchain that puts --sysroot in
    the CC var:

    ~/src/linux/tools$ make iio
    [snip]
    iio_event_monitor.c:18:10: fatal error: unistd.h: No such file or directory
    #include
    ^~~~~~~~~~

    This occurs because we clobber several env vars related to
    cross-compiling with lines like this:

    CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc

    Although this will point to a valid cross-compiler, we lose any extra
    flags that might exist in the CC variable, which can break toolchains
    that rely on them (for example, those that use --sysroot).

    This easily shows up using a Yocto SDK:

    $ . [snip]/sdk/environment-setup-cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi

    $ echo $CC
    arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc -march=armv7-a -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=hard
    -mcpu=cortex-a8
    --sysroot=[snip]/sdk/sysroots/cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi

    $ echo $CROSS_COMPILE
    arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-

    $ echo ${CROSS_COMPILE}gcc
    krm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc

    Although arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-gcc is a cross-compiler, we've lost the
    --sysroot and other flags that enable us to find the right libraries to
    link against, so we can't find unistd.h and other libraries and headers.
    Normally with the --sysroot flag we would find unistd.h in the sdk
    directory in the sysroot:

    $ find [snip]/sdk/sysroots -path '*/usr/include/unistd.h'
    [snip]/sdk/sysroots/cortexa8hf-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi/usr/include/unistd.h

    The perf Makefile adds CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc if and only if CC is not
    already set, and it compiles correctly with the above toolchain.

    So, generalize the logic that perf uses in the common Makefile and
    remove the manual CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc lines from each Makefile.

    Note that this patch does not fix cross-compile for all the tools (some
    have other bugs), but it does fix it for all except usb and acpi, which
    still have other unrelated issues.

    I tested both with and without the patch on native and cross-build and
    there appear to be no regressions.

  • While reading in more than one block (50) of KVP records, the allocation
    goes per block, but the reads used the total number of allocated records
    (without resetting the pointer/stream). This causes the records buffer to
    overrun when the refresh reads more than one block over the previous
    capacity (e.g. reading more than 100 KVP records whereas the in-memory
    database was empty before).

    Fix this by reading the correct number of KVP records from file each time.

  • Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
    makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

    By default all files without license information are under the default
    license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

    Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
    SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
    shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

    This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
    Philippe Ombredanne.

    How this work was done:

    Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
    the use cases:
    - file had no licensing information it it.
    - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
    - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

    Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
    where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
    had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

    The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
    a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
    output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
    tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
    base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

    The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
    assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
    results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
    to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
    immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

    Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
    - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
    - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
    lines of source
    - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if

  • Since a loop device is backed by a file, a backup will already result in
    its parent filesystem being frozen. It's sufficient to just freeze the
    parent filesystem, so we can skip the loop device.

    This avoids a situation where a loop device and its parent filesystem are
    both frozen and then thawed out of order. For example, if the loop device
    is enumerated first, we would thaw it while its parent filesystem is still
    frozen. The thaw operation fails and the loop device remains frozen.

  • Paths can be up to PATH_MAX long and PATH_MAX is usually greater than 256.
    While on it, simplify path reconstruction to a simple snprintf(), define
    and reuse KVP_NET_DIR.

  • If a FREEZE operation takes too long, the driver may time out and move on
    to another operation. The daemon is unaware of this and attempts to
    notify the driver that the FREEZE succeeded. This results in an error from
    the driver and the daemon leaves the filesystem in frozen state.

    Fix this by thawing the filesystem and continuing.

  • Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH:
    "Here's the big char/misc driver patches for 4.10-rc1. Lots of tiny
    changes over lots of "minor" driver subsystems, the largest being some
    new FPGA drivers. Other than that, a few other new drivers, but no new
    driver subsystems added for this kernel cycle, a nice change.

    All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues"

  • We found network manager is necessary on RHEL to make the synthetic
    NIC, VF NIC bonding operations handled automatically. So, enabling
    network manager here.
