maintainerPATCH 2/29 powerpc/fadump: handle crash memory ranges array index overflow
In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Hari Bathini <[email protected]>
commit 1bd6a1c4b80a28d975287630644e6b47d0f977a5 upstream.
Crash memory ranges is an array of memory ranges of the crashing kernel to be exported as a dump via /proc/vmcore file. The size of the array is set based on INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS, which works alright in most cases where memblock memory regions count is less than INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS value. But this count can grow beyond INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS value since commit 142b45a72e22 ("memblock: Add array resizing support").
On large memory systems with a few DLPAR operations, the memblock memory regions count could be larger than INIT_MEMBLOCK_REGIONS value. On such systems, registering fadump results in crash or other system failures like below:

maintainerPATCH 3/29 powerpc/pseries: Fix endianness while restoring of r3 in MCE handler.
In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Mahesh Salgaonkar <[email protected]>
commit cd813e1cd7122f2c261dce5b54d1e0c97f80e1a5 upstream.
During Machine Check interrupt on pseries platform, register r3 points RTAS extended event log passed by hypervisor. Since hypervisor uses r3 to pass pointer to rtas log, it stores the original r3 value at the start of the memory (first 8 bytes) pointed by r3. Since hypervisor stores this info and rtas log is in BE format, linux should make sure to restore r3 value in correct endian format.
Without this patch when MCE handler, after recovery, returns to code that that caused the MCE may end up with Data SLB access interrupt for invalid address followed by kernel panic or hang.

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Tomas Bortoli <[email protected]>
commit 7913690dcc5e18e235769fd87c34143072f5dbea upstream.
The p9_client_version() does not initialize the version pointer. If the call to p9pdu_readf() returns an error and version has not been allocated in p9pdu_readf(), then the program will jump to the "error" label and will try to free the version pointer. If version is not initialized, free() will be called with uninitialized, garbage data and will provoke a crash.

maintainerPATCH 7/29 dm cache metadata: save in-core policy_hint_size to on-disk superblock
In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Mike Snitzer <[email protected]>
commit fd2fa95416188a767a63979296fa3e169a9ef5ec upstream.
policy_hint_size starts as 0 during __write_initial_superblock(). It isn't until the policy is loaded that policy_hint_size is set in-core (cmd->policy_hint_size). But it never got recorded in the on-disk superblock because __commit_transaction() didn't deal with transfering the in-core cmd->policy_hint_size to the on-disk superblock.
The in-core cmd->policy_hint_size gets initialized by metadata_open()'s __begin_transaction_flags() which re-reads all superblock fields. Because the superblock's policy_hint_size was never properly stored, when the cache was created, hints_array_available() would always return false when re-activating a previously created cache. This means __load_mappings() always considered the hints invalid and never made use of the hints (these hints served to optimize).
Another detremental side-effect of this oversight is the cache_check utility would fail with: "invalid hint width: 0"

commit 9a5094ca29ea9b1da301b31fd377c0c0c4c23034 upstream.

The ad952x_store() function currently returns 0 if the input value was "0", this will signal that no characters have been consumed and the function will be called repeatedly in a loop indefinitely. Fix this by returning number of supplied characters to indicate that the whole input string has been consumed.

maintainerPATCH 10/29 tracing: Do not call start/stop() functions when tracing_on does not change
In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <[email protected]>
commit f143641bfef9a4a60c57af30de26c63057e7e695 upstream.
Currently, when one echo's in 1 into tracing_on, the current tracer's "start()" function is executed, even if tracing_on was already one. This can lead to strange side effects. One being that if the hwlat tracer is enabled, and someone does "echo 1 > tracing_on" into tracing_on, the hwlat tracer's start() function is called again which will recreate another kernel thread, and make it unable to remove the old one.

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <[email protected]>
commit 757d9140072054528b13bbe291583d9823cde195 upstream.
Masami Hiramatsu reported:
Current trace-enable attribute in sysfs returns an error if user writes the same setting value as current one, e.g.
# cat /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
0
# echo 0 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
bash: echo: write error: Device or resource busyBut this is not a preferred behavior, it should ignore if new setting is same as current one. This fixes the problem as below.
# cat /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
0
# echo 0 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sda/trace/enable

maintainerPATCH 12/29 kthread, tracing: Dont expose half-written comm when creating kthreads
In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Snild Dolkow <[email protected]>
commit 3e536e222f2930534c252c1cc7ae799c725c5ff9 upstream.
There is a window for racing when printing directly to task->comm, allowing other threads to see a non-terminated string. The vsnprintf function fills the buffer, counts the truncated chars, then finally writes the \0 at the end.
creator other
vsnprintf:
fill (not terminated)
count the rest trace_sched_waking(p):
... memcpy(comm, p->comm, TASK_COMM_LEN)
write \0
The consequences depend on how 'other' uses the string. In our case, it was copied into the tracing system's saved cmdlines, a buffer of adjacent TASK_COMM_LEN-byte buffers (note the 'n' where 0 should be):
crash-arm64> x/1024s savedcmd->saved_cmdlines | grep 'evenk' 0xffffffd5b3818640: "irq/497-pwr_evenkworker/u16:12"

The workaround in e09e28671 (use strlcpy in __trace_find_cmdline) was likely needed because of this same bug.
Solved by vsnprintf:ing to a local buffer, then using set_task_comm(). This way, there won't be a window where comm is not terminated.

maintainerPATCH 13/29 uprobes: Use synchronize_rcu() not synchronize_sched()
In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <[email protected]>
commit 016f8ffc48cb01d1e7701649c728c5d2e737d295 upstream.
While debugging another bug, I was looking at all the synchronize*() functions being used in kernel/trace, and noticed that trace_uprobes was using synchronize_sched(), with a comment to synchronize with {u,ret}_probe_trace_func(). When looking at those functions, the data is protected with "rcu_read_lock()" and not with "rcu_read_lock_sched()". This is using the wrong synchronize_*() function.

maintainerPATCH 16/29 ARM: tegra: Fix Tegra30 Cardhu PCA954x reset
In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jon Hunter <[email protected]>
commit 6e1811900b6fe6f2b4665dba6bd6ed32c6b98575 upstream.
On all versions of Tegra30 Cardhu, the reset signal to the NXP PCA9546 I2C mux is connected to the Tegra GPIO BB0. Currently, this pin on the Tegra is not configured as a GPIO but as a special-function IO (SFIO) that is multiplexing the pin to an I2S controller. On exiting system suspend, I2C commands sent to the PCA9546 are failing because there is no ACK. Although it is not possible to see exactly what is happening to the reset during suspend, by ensuring it is configured as a GPIO and driven high, to de-assert the reset, the failures are no longer seen.
Please note that this GPIO is also used to drive the reset signal going to the camera connector on the board. However, given that there is no camera support currently for Cardhu, this should not have any impact.

If removing this turns out to be a performance issue, we can re-instate a more complete check, but in tlb_table_flush() eliding the call_rcu_sched().

Note: This changes the error precedence of invalid buf/count/*ppos vs map already written / capabilities missing.

maintainerPATCH 25/29 pwm: tiehrpwm: Fix disabling of output of PWMs
In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Vignesh R <[email protected]>
commit 38dabd91ff0bde33352ca3cc65ef515599b77a05 upstream.
pwm-tiehrpwm driver disables PWM output by putting it in low output state via active AQCSFRC register in ehrpwm_pwm_disable(). But, the AQCSFRC shadow register is not updated. Therefore, when shadow AQCSFRC register is re-enabled in ehrpwm_pwm_enable() (say to enable second PWM output), previous settings are lost as shadow register value is loaded into active register. This results in things like PWMA getting enabled automatically, when PWMB is enabled and vice versa. Fix this by updating AQCSFRC shadow register as well during ehrpwm_pwm_disable().

maintainerPATCH 26/29 fb: fix lost console when the user unplugs a USB adapter
In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Mikulas Patocka <[email protected]>
commit 8c5b044299951acd91e830a688dd920477ea1eda upstream.
I have a USB display adapter using the udlfb driver and I use it on an ARM board that doesn't have any graphics card. When I plug the adapter in, the console is properly displayed, however when I unplug and re-plug the adapter, the console is not displayed and I can't access it until I reboot the board.
The reason is this:
When the adapter is unplugged, dlfb_usb_disconnect calls unlink_framebuffer, then it waits until the reference count drops to zero and then it deallocates the framebuffer. However, the console that is attached to the framebuffer device keeps the reference count non-zero, so the framebuffer device is never destroyed. When the USB adapter is plugged again, it creates a new device /dev/fb1 and the console is not attached to it.
This patch fixes the bug by unbinding the console from unlink_framebuffer. The code to unbind the console is moved from do_unregister_framebuffer to a function unbind_console. When the console is unbound, the reference count drops to zero and the udlfb driver frees the framebuffer. When the adapter is plugged back, a new framebuffer is created and the console is attached to it.

maintainerPATCH 27/29 udlfb: set optimal write delay
In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Mikulas Patocka <[email protected]>
commit bb24153a3f13dd0dbc1f8055ad97fe346d598f66 upstream.
The default delay 5 jiffies is too much when the kernel is compiled with HZ=100 - it results in jumpy cursor in Xwindow.
In order to find out the optimal delay, I benchmarked the driver on 1280x720x30fps video. I found out that with HZ=1000, 10ms is acceptable, but with HZ=250 or HZ=300, we need 4ms, so that the video is played without any frame skips.
This patch changes the delay to this value.

maintainerPATCH 28/29 getxattr: use correct xattr length
In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Christian Brauner <[email protected]>
commit 82c9a927bc5df6e06b72d206d24a9d10cced4eb5 upstream.
When running in a container with a user namespace, if you call getxattr with name = "system.posix_acl_access" and size % 8 != 4, then getxattr silently skips the user namespace fixup that it normally does resulting in un-fixed-up data being returned.
This is caused by posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user() being passed the total buffer size and not the actual size of the xattr as returned by vfs_getxattr().
This commit passes the actual length of the xattr as returned by vfs_getxattr() down.
A reproducer for the issue is:
touch acl_posix
setfacl -m user:0:rwx acl_posix
and the compile:
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <attr/xattr.h>
/* Run in user namespace with nsuid 0 mapped to uid != 0 on the host. */

else
fprintf(stderr, "Test failed\n");

and run:

In reply to Greg Kroah-Hartman3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Shan Hai <[email protected]>
commit 3943b040f11ed0cc6d4585fd286a623ca8634547 upstream.
The writeback thread would exit with a lock held when the cache device is detached via sysfs interface, fix it by releasing the held lock before exiting the while-loop.
