2009-08-07lib/decompress_*: only include <linux/slab.h> if STATIC is not definedAlbin Tonnerre
These includes were added by 079effb6933f34b9b1b67b08bd4fd7fb672d16ef ("kmemtrace, kbuild: fix slab.h dependency problem in lib/decompress_inflate.c") to fix the build when using kmemtrace. However this is not necessary when used to create a compressed kernel, and actually creates issues (brings a lot of things unavailable in the decompression environment), so don't include it if STATIC is defined.

2009-08-07bzip2/lzma: remove nasty uncompressed size hack in pre-boot environmentPhillip Lougher
decompress_bunzip2 and decompress_unlzma have a nasty hack that subtracts 4 from the input length if being called in the pre-boot environment. This is a nasty hack because it relies on the fact that flush = NULL only when called from the pre-boot environment (i.e. arch/x86/boot/compressed/misc.c). initramfs.c/do_mounts_rd.c pass in a flush buffer (flush != NULL). This hack prevents the decompressors from being used with flush = NULL by other callers unless knowledge of the hack is propagated to them. This patch removes the hack by making decompress (called only from the pre-boot environment) a wrapper function that subtracts 4 from the input length before calling the decompressor.

2009-08-07execve: must clear current->clear_child_tidEric Dumazet
While looking at Jens Rosenboom bug report (http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/7/27/35) about strange sys_futex call done from a dying "ps" program, we found following problem. clone() syscall has special support for TID of created threads. This support includes two features. One (CLONE_CHILD_SETTID) is to set an integer into user memory with the TID value. One (CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID) is to clear this same integer once the created thread dies. The integer location is a user provided pointer, provided at clone() time. kernel keeps this pointer value into current->clear_child_tid. At execve() time, we should make sure kernel doesnt keep this user provided pointer, as full user memory is replaced by a new one. As glibc fork() actually uses clone() syscall with CLONE_CHILD_SETTID and CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID set, chances are high that we might corrupt user memory in forked processes. Following sequence could happen: 1) bash (or any program) starts a new process, by a fork() call that glibc maps to a clone( ... CLONE_CHILD_SETTID | CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID ...) syscall 2) When new process starts, its current->clear_child_tid is set to a location that has a meaning only in bash (or initial program) context (&THREAD_SELF->tid) 3) This new process does the execve() syscall to start a new program. current->clear_child_tid is left unchanged (a non NULL value) 4) If this new program creates some threads, and initial thread exits, kernel will attempt to clear the integer pointed by current->clear_child_tid from mm_release() : if (tsk->clear_child_tid && !(tsk->flags & PF_SIGNALED) && atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) > 1) { u32 __user * tidptr = tsk->clear_child_tid; tsk->clear_child_tid = NULL; /* * We don't check the error code - if userspace has * not set up a proper pointer then tough luck. */ << here >> put_user(0, tidptr); sys_futex(tidptr, FUTEX_WAKE, 1, NULL, NULL, 0); } 5) OR : if new program is not multi-threaded, but spied by /proc/pid users (ps command for example), mm_users > 1, and the exiting program could corrupt 4 bytes in a persistent memory area (shm or memory mapped file) If current->clear_child_tid points to a writeable portion of memory of the new program, kernel happily and silently corrupts 4 bytes of memory, with unexpected effects. Fix is straightforward and should not break any sane program.

2009-08-07fbcon: don't use vc_resize() on initializationJohannes Weiner
Catalin and kmemleak spotted a leak of a VC screen buffer in vc_allocate() due to the following chain of events: vc_allocate() visual_init(init=1) vc->vc_sw->con_init(init=1) fbcon_init() vc_resize() vc->screen_buf = kmalloc() vc->screen_buf = kmalloc() The common way for the VC drivers is to set the screen dimension parameters manually in the init case and only call vc_resize() for !init - which allocates a screen buffer according to the new dimensions. fbcon instead would do vc_resize() unconditionally and afterwards set the dimensions manually (again) for !init - i.e. completely upside down. The vc_resize() allocated buffer would then get lost by vc_allocate() allocating a fresh one. Use vc_resize() only for actual resizing to close the leak. Set the dimensions manually only in initialization mode to remove the redundant setting in resize mode.

2009-08-07mm: make set_mempolicy(MPOL_INTERLEAV) N_HIGH_MEMORY awareKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
At first, init_task's mems_allowed is initialized as this. init_task->mems_allowed == node_state[N_POSSIBLE] And cpuset's top_cpuset mask is initialized as this top_cpuset->mems_allowed = node_state[N_HIGH_MEMORY] Before 2.6.29: policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. update tasks->mems_allowed by its cpuset->mems_allowed. 2. policy->mems_allowed = nodes_and(tasks->mems_allowed, user's mask) Updating task's mems_allowed in reference to top_cpuset's one. cpuset's mems_allowed is aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY, always. In 2.6.30: After commit 58568d2a8215cb6f55caf2332017d7bdff954e1c ("cpuset,mm: update tasks' mems_allowed in time"), policy's mems_allowed is initialized as this. 1. policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(task->mems_allowed, user's mask) Here, if task is in top_cpuset, task->mems_allowed is not updated from init's one. Assume user excutes command as #numactrl --interleave=all ,.... policy->mems_allowd = nodes_and(N_POSSIBLE, ALL_SET_MASK) Then, policy's mems_allowd can includes a possible node, which has no pgdat. MPOL's INTERLEAVE just scans nodemask of task->mems_allowd and access this directly. NODE_DATA(nid)->zonelist even if NODE_DATA(nid)==NULL Then, what's we need is making policy->mems_allowed be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY. This patch does that. But to do so, extra nodemask will be on statck. Because I know cpumask has a new interface of CPUMASK_ALLOC(), I added it to node. This patch stands on old behavior. But I feel this fix itself is just a Band-Aid. But to do fundametal fix, we have to take care of memory hotplug and it takes time. (task->mems_allowd should be N_HIGH_MEMORY, I think.) mpol_set_nodemask() should be aware of N_HIGH_MEMORY and policy's nodemask should be includes only online nodes. In old behavior, this is guaranteed by frequent reference to cpuset's code. Now, most of them are removed and mempolicy has to check it by itself. To do check, a few nodemask_t will be used for calculating nodemask. But, size of nodemask_t can be big and it's not good to allocate them on stack. Now, cpumask_t has CPUMASK_ALLOC/FREE an easy code for get scratch area. NODEMASK_ALLOC/FREE shoudl be there.

Currently inode_init_always calls into ->destroy_inode if the additional initialization fails. That's not only counter-intuitive because inode_init_always did not allocate the inode structure, but in case of XFS it's actively harmful as ->destroy_inode might delete the inode from a radix-tree that has never been added. This in turn might end up deleting the inode for the same inum that has been instanciated by another process and cause lots of cause subtile problems.

2009-08-07mwl8k: fix NULL pointer dereference on receive out-of-memoryLennert Buytenhek
When we go into out-of-memory and fail to allocate skbuffs to refill the receive ring with, rxq_process can end up running into a receive ring entry that is marked as host-owned but doesn't have an associated skbuff. If this happens, we must break out of the rx processing loop instead of trying to process the descriptor.

2009-08-07[S390] kernel: Storing machine flags early in lowcoreHendrik Brueckner
Currently, the machine_flags are stored late in the startup initialization which results in failing machine type checks (e.g. for MACHINE_IS_VM). To allow these checks, store the machine flags in the lowcore when the machine type has been detected. Moving the machine_flags to the lowcore has been introduced with git commit 25097bf153391f7be4c591d47061b3dc4990dac2 Signed-off-by: Hendrik Brueckner <brueckner@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
2009-08-07tracing: Fix recordmcount.pl to handle sections with only weak functionsSteven Rostedt
Roland Dreier found that a section that contained only a weak function in one of the staging drivers and this caused recordmcount.pl to spit out a warning and fail. Although it is strange that a driver would have a weak function, and this function only be used in one place, it should not be something to make recordmcount.pl fail. This patch fixes the issue in a simple manner: if only weak functions exist in a section, then that section will not be recorded.

2009-08-06ring-buffer: Fix advance of reader in rb_buffer_peek()Robert Richter
When calling rb_buffer_peek() from ring_buffer_consume() and a padding event is returned, the function rb_advance_reader() is called twice. This may lead to missing samples or under high workloads to the warning below. This patch fixes this. If a padding event is returned by rb_buffer_peek() it will be consumed by the calling function now. Also, I simplified some code in ring_buffer_consume(). ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at /dev/shm/.source/linux/kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c:2289 rb_advance_reader+0x2e/0xc5() Hardware name: Anaheim Modules linked in: Pid: 29, comm: events/2 Tainted: G W 2.6.31-rc3-oprofile-x86_64-standard-00059-g5050dc2 #1 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8106776f>] ? rb_advance_reader+0x2e/0xc5 [<ffffffff81039ffe>] warn_slowpath_common+0x77/0x8f [<ffffffff8103a025>] warn_slowpath_null+0xf/0x11 [<ffffffff8106776f>] rb_advance_reader+0x2e/0xc5 [<ffffffff81068bda>] ring_buffer_consume+0xa0/0xd2 [<ffffffff81326933>] op_cpu_buffer_read_entry+0x21/0x9e [<ffffffff810be3af>] ? __find_get_block+0x4b/0x165 [<ffffffff8132749b>] sync_buffer+0xa5/0x401 [<ffffffff810be3af>] ? __find_get_block+0x4b/0x165 [<ffffffff81326c1b>] ? wq_sync_buffer+0x0/0x78 [<ffffffff81326c76>] wq_sync_buffer+0x5b/0x78 [<ffffffff8104aa30>] worker_thread+0x113/0x1ac [<ffffffff8104dd95>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x38 [<ffffffff8104a91d>] ? worker_thread+0x0/0x1ac [<ffffffff8104dc9a>] kthread+0x88/0x92 [<ffffffff8100bdba>] child_rip+0xa/0x20 [<ffffffff8104dc12>] ? kthread+0x0/0x92 [<ffffffff8100bdb0>] ? child_rip+0x0/0x20 ---[ end trace f561c0a58fcc89bd ]--- Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Robert Richter <robert.richter@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2009-08-06intel-iommu: Fix enabling snooping feature by mistakeSheng Yang
Two defects work together result in KVM device passthrough randomly can't work: 1. iommu_snooping is not initialized to zero when vm_iommu_init() called. So it is possible to get a random value. 2. One line added by commit 2c2e2c38("IOMMU Identity Mapping Support") change the code path, let it bypass domain_update_iommu_cap(), as well as missing the increment of domain iommu reference count. The latter is also likely to cause a leak of domains on repeated VMM assignment and deassignment.
