commit 4bdee6c5103696a2729d3db2f235d202191788e4 upstream
sata_mv allowed issuing two DMA commands concurrently which the
hardware allows. Unfortunately, libata core layer isn't ready for
this yet and spews ugly warning message and malfunctions on this.
Don't allow concurrent DMA commands for now.

David Wagner added (among other things) that copy_to_user could be
probably used here.
Ingo Oeser suggested to use simple_read_from_buffer() here.
The conclusion is that proc_do_xprt doesn't check for userside buffer
size indeed so fix this by using Ingo's suggestion.

patch 4ba526ced990f4d61ee8d65fe8a6f0745e8e455c upstream
The git commit 7c5026aa9b81dd45df8d3f4e0be73e485976a8b6 ("tg3: Add
link state reporting to UMP firmware") introduced code that waits for
previous firmware events to be serviced before attempting to submit a
new event. Unfortunately that patch contained a bug that cause the
driver to wait 2.5 seconds, rather than 2.5 milliseconds as intended.
This patch fixes that bug.
This bug revealed that not all firmware versions service driver events
though. Since we do not know which versions of the firmware do and don't
service these events, the driver needs some way to minimize the effects
of the delay. This patch solves the problem by recording a jiffies
timestamp when it submits an event to the hardware. If the jiffies
counter shows that 2.5 milliseconds have already passed, a wait is not
needed and the driver can proceed to submit a new event.

crypto: authenc - Avoid using clobbered request pointer
[ Upstream commit: a697690bece75d4ba424c1318eb25c37d41d5829 ]
Authenc works in two stages for encryption, it first encrypts and
then computes an ICV. The context memory of the request is used
by both operations. The problem is that when an asynchronous
encryption completes, we will compute the ICV and then reread the
context memory of the encryption to get the original request.
It just happens that we have a buffer of 16 bytes in front of the
request pointer, so ICVs of 16 bytes (such as SHA1) do not trigger
the bug. However, any attempt to uses a larger ICV instantly kills
the machine when the first asynchronous encryption is completed.
This patch fixes this by saving the request pointer before we start
the ICV computation.

[ Upstream commit f2b6079464fc73cf12f08248180a618f05033a70 ]
First, lmb_enforce_memory_limit() interprets it's argument
(mostly, heh) as a size limit not an address limit. So pass
the raw cmdline_memory_size value into it. And we don't
need to check it against zero, lmb_enforce_memory_limit() does
that for us.
Next, free_initmem() needs special handling when the kernel
command line trims the available memory. The problem case is
if the trimmed out memory is where the kernel image itself
resides.
When that memory is trimmed out, we don't add those physical
ram areas to the sparsemem active ranges, amongst other things.
Which means that this free_initmem() code will free up invalid
page structs, resulting in either crashes or hangs.
Just quick fix this by not freeing initmem at all if "mem="
was given on the boot command line.

Ever since commit 4c563f7669c10a12354b72b518c2287ffc6ebfb3
("[XFRM]: Speed up xfrm_policy and xfrm_state walking") it is
illegal to call __xfrm_state_destroy (and thus xfrm_state_put())
with xfrm_state_lock held. If we do, we'll deadlock since we
have the lock already and __xfrm_state_destroy() tries to take
it again.
Fix this by pushing the xfrm_state_put() calls after the lock
is dropped.

[ Upstream commit 7c19a3d280297d43ef5ff7c6b205dc208a16d3d1 ]
This essentially reverts two commits:
1) 2e8046271f68198dd37451017c1a4a2432e4ec68 ("[IPV4] MROUTE: Move PIM
definitions to <linux/pim.h>.")
and
2) 80a9492a33dd7d852465625022d56ff76d62174d ("[IPV4] MROUTE: Adjust
include files for user-space.")
which broke userpsace, in particular the XORP build as reported by
Jose Calhariz, the debain package maintainer for XORP.
Nothing originally in linux/mroute.h was exported to userspace
ever, but some of this stuff started to be when it was moved into
this new linux/pim.h, and that was wrong. If we didn't provide these
definitions for 10 years we can reasonable expect that applications
defined this stuff locally or used GLIBC headers providing the
protocol definitions. And as such the only result of this can
be conflict and userland build breakage.
The commit #1 had such a short and terse commit message, that we
cannot even know why such a move and set of new userland exports were
even made.

The socket lock is there to protect the normal UDP receive path.
Encapsulation UDP sockets don't need that protection. In fact
the locking is deadly for them as they may contain another UDP
packet within, possibly with the same addresses.
Also the nested bit was copied from TCP. TCP needs it because
of accept(2) spawning sockets. This simply doesn't apply to UDP
so I've removed it.

commit 344c790e3821dac37eb742ddd0b611a300f78b9a upstream
I have gotten to the root cause of the hugetlb badness I reported back on
August 15th. My system has the following memory topology (note the
overlapping node):
Node 0 Memory: 0x8000000-0x44000000
Node 1 Memory: 0x0-0x8000000 0x44000000-0x80000000
setup_zone_migrate_reserve() scans the address range 0x0-0x8000000 looking
for a pageblock to move onto the MIGRATE_RESERVE list. Finding no
candidates, it happily continues the scan into 0x8000000-0x44000000. When
a pageblock is found, the pages are moved to the MIGRATE_RESERVE list on
the wrong zone. Oops.
setup_zone_migrate_reserve() should skip pageblocks in overlapping nodes.

commit 363f66fe06c75270b669c88e321e6b354ba0201e upstream
Recent changes to tighten the check for UARTs that don't correctly
re-assert THRE (01c194d9278efc15d4785ff205643e9c0bdcef53: "serial 8250:
tighten test for using backup timer") caused problems when such a UART was
opened for the second time - the bug could only successfully be detected
at first initialization. For users of this version of this particular
UART IP it is fatal.
This patch stores the information about the bug in the bugs field of the
port structure when the port is first started up so subsequent opens can
check this bit even if the test for the bug fails.
David Brownell: "My own exposure to this is that the UART on DaVinci
hardware, which TI allegedly derived from its original 16550 logic, has
periodically gone from working to unusable with the mainline 8250.c ...
and back and forth a bunch. Currently it's "unusable", a regression from
some previous versions. With this patch from Will, it's usable."

unsigned:
void rtc_time_to_tm(unsigned long time, struct rtc_time *tm)
{
- register int days, month, year;
+ unsigned int days, month, year;
This doesn't work for all cases, because days is checked for < 0 later
on:
if (days < 0) {
year -= 1;
days += 365 + LEAP_YEAR(year);
}
I think the correct fix would be to keep days signed and do an appropriate
cast later on.

credit_entropy_bits() does:
spin_lock_irqsave(&r->lock, flags);

if (r->entropy_count > r->poolinfo->POOLBITS)

so there is a time window in which this BUG_ON():

int reserved)
{
unsigned long flags;
BUG_ON(r->entropy_count > r->poolinfo->POOLBITS);

spin_lock_irqsave(&r->lock, flags);

We could fix this by moving the assertion inside the lock, but it seems
safer and saner to revert to the old behaviour wherein
entropy_store.entropy_count at no time exceeds
entropy_store.poolinfo->POOLBITS.

commit 838726c4756813576078203eb7e1e219db0da870 upstream
The direct I/O write codepath for CIFS is done through
cifs_user_write(). That function does not currently call
generic_write_checks() so the file position isn't being properly set
when the file is opened with O_APPEND. It's also not doing the other
"normal" checks that should be done for a write call.
The problem is currently that when you open a file with O_APPEND on a
mount with the directio mount option, the file position is set to the
beginning of the file. This makes any subsequent writes clobber the data
in the file starting at the beginning.
This seems to fix the problem in cursory testing. It is, however
important to note that NFS disallows the combination of
(O_DIRECT|O_APPEND). If my understanding is correct, the concern is
races with multiple clients appending to a file clobbering each others'
data. Since the write model for CIFS and NFS is pretty similar in this
regard, CIFS is probably subject to the same sort of races. What's
unclear to me is why this is a particular problem with O_DIRECT and not
with buffered writes...
Regardless, disallowing O_APPEND on an entire mount is probably not
reasonable, so we'll probably just have to deal with it and reevaluate
this flag combination when we get proper support for O_DIRECT. In the
meantime this patch at least fixes the existing problem.

commit edcfe5f7e307846e578fb88d69fa27051fded0ab upstream
Fix the checksum feature advertised in device flags. The hardware support
TCP/UDP over IPv4 and TCP/UDP over IPv6 (without IPv6 extension headers).
However, the kernel feature flags do not distinguish IPv6 with/without
extension headers.
Therefore, the driver needs to use NETIF_F_IP_CSUM instead of
NETIF_F_HW_CSUM since the latter includes all IPv6 packets.
A future patch can be created to check for extension headers and perform
software checksum calculation.

commit 76029ff37f31dad64641489c610d98955217bb68 upstream
The commit 68154e90c9d1492d570671ae181d9a8f8530da55 introduced
bio_copy_kern() to add bounce support to blk_rq_map_kern.
bio_copy_kern() uses bio->bv_len to copy data for READ commands after
the completion but it doesn't work with a request that partially
completed. SCSI always completes a PC request as a whole but seems
some don't.
This patch fixes bio_copy_kern to handle the above case. As
bio_copy_user does, bio_copy_kern uses struct bio_map_data to store
struct bio_vec.

commit 49fd38bdaa96f093fcad3176a781a4d0de8f8602 upstream
The Perform Subsystem Function/Prepare for Read Subsystem Data
command requires 12 bytes of parameter data, but the respective data
structure dasd_psf_prssd_data has a length of 16 bytes.
Current storage servers ignore the obsolete bytes, but older models
fail to execute the command and report an incorrect length error.
This causes the device initilization for these devices to fail.
To fix this problem we need to correct the dasd_psf_prssd_data
structure and shorten it to the correct length.

this commit activated a macro which was dormant before due to (buggy)
macro side-effects.
I've looked through various datasheets and found that the GXm and GXLV
Geode processors don't have an incrementor.
Remove the incrementor setup entirely. As the incrementor value
differs according to clock speed and we would hope that the BIOS
configures it correctly, it is probably the right solution.

commit 38cc1c3df77c1bb739a4766788eb9fa49f16ffdf upstream
Joshua Hoblitt reported that only 3 GB of his 16 GB of RAM is
usable. Booting with mtrr_show showed us the BIOS-initialized
MTRR settings - which are all wrong.
So the root cause is that the BIOS has not set the mask correctly:

Subject: binfmt_misc: fix false -ENOEXEC when coupled with other binary handlers
In case the binfmt_misc binary handler is registered *before* the e.g.
script one (when for example being compiled as a module) the following
situation may occur:
1. user launches a script, whose interpreter is a misc binary;
2. the load_misc_binary sets the misc_bang and returns -ENOEVEC,
since the binary is a script;
3. the load_script_binary loads one and calls for search_binary_hander
to run the interpreter;
4. the load_misc_binary is called again, but refuses to load the
binary due to misc_bang bit set.
The fix is to move the misc_bang setting lower - prior to the actual
call to the search_binary_handler.

stack overflow)

Alex Chiang and Matthew Wilcox pointed out that pci_get_dev_by_id() does
not properly decrement the reference on the from pointer if it is
present, like the documentation for the function states it will.
It fixes a pretty bad leak in the hotplug core (we were leaking an
entire struct pci_dev for each function of each offlined card, the first
time around; subsequent onlines/offlines were ok).

=======================
Wolfgang also found out that adding kernel_fpu_begin() and kernel_fpu_end()
around the padlock instructions fix the oops.
Suresh wrote:
These padlock instructions though don't use/touch SSE registers, but it behaves
similar to other SSE instructions. For example, it might cause DNA faults
when cr0.ts is set. While this is a spurious DNA trap, it might cause
oops with the recent fpu code changes.
This is the code sequence that is probably causing this problem:
a) new app is getting exec'd and it is somewhere in between
start_thread() and flush_old_exec() in the load_xyz_binary()
b) At pont "a", task's fpu state (like TS_USEDFPU, used_math() etc) is
cleared.
c) Now we get an interrupt/softirq which starts using these encrypt/decrypt
routines in the network stack. This generates a math fault (as
cr0.ts is '1') which sets TS_USEDFPU and restores the math that is
in the task's xstate.
d) Return to exec code path, which does start_thread() which does
free_thread_xstate() and sets xstate pointer to NULL while
the TS_USEDFPU is still set.
e) At the next context switch from the new exec'd task to another task,
we have a scenarios where TS_USEDFPU is set but xstate pointer is null.
This can cause an oops during unlazy_fpu() in __switch_to()
Now:
1) This should happen with or with out pre-emption. Viro also encountered
similar problem with out CONFIG_PREEMPT.
2) kernel_fpu_begin() and kernel_fpu_end() will fix this problem, because
kernel_fpu_begin() will manually do a clts() and won't run in to the
situation of setting TS_USEDFPU in step "c" above.
3) This was working before the fpu changes, because its a spurious
math fault which doesn't corrupt any fpu/sse registers and the task's
math state was always in an allocated state.
With out the recent lazy fpu allocation changes, while we don't see oops,
there is a possible race still present in older kernels(for example,
while kernel is using kernel_fpu_begin() in some optimized clear/copy
page and an interrupt/softirq happens which uses these padlock
instructions generating DNA fault).
This is the failing scenario that existed even before the lazy fpu allocation
changes:
0. CPU's TS flag is set
1. kernel using FPU in some optimized copy routine and while doing
kernel_fpu_begin() takes an interrupt just before doing clts()
2. Takes an interrupt and ipsec uses padlock instruction. And we
take a DNA fault as TS flag is still set.
3. We handle the DNA fault and set TS_USEDFPU and clear cr0.ts
4. We complete the padlock routine
5. Go back to step-1, which resumes clts() in kernel_fpu_begin(), finishes
the optimized copy routine and does kernel_fpu_end(). At this point,
we have cr0.ts again set to '1' but the task's TS_USEFPU is stilll
set and not cleared.
6. Now kernel resumes its user operation. And at the next context
switch, kernel sees it has do a FP save as TS_USEDFPU is still set
and then will do a unlazy_fpu() in __switch_to(). unlazy_fpu()
will take a DNA fault, as cr0.ts is '1' and now, because we are
in __switch_to(), math_state_restore() will get confused and will
restore the next task's FP state and will save it in prev tasks's FP state.
Remember, in __switch_to() we are already on the stack of the next task
but take a DNA fault for the prev task.
This causes the fpu leakage.
Fix the padlock instruction usage by calling them inside the
context of new routines irq_ts_save/restore(), which clear/restore cr0.ts
manually in the interrupt context. This will not generate spurious DNA
in the context of the interrupt which will fix the oops encountered and
the possible FPU leakage issue.

commit 59f4ff2ecff4cef36378928cec891785b402e80c upstream
This patch (as1119b) will help to reduce the clutter of usb-storage's
unusual_devs file by automatically detecting some devices that need
the IGNORE_RESIDUE flag. The idea is that devices should never return
a non-zero residue for an INQUIRY or a READ CAPACITY command unless
they failed to transfer all the requested data. So if one of these
commands transfers a standard amount of data but there is a positive
residue, we know that the residue is bogus and we can set the flag.
This fixes the problems reported in Bugzilla #11125.
