In that case it is probable that kernel code overwrote part of the

This patch now always passes msg->msg_namelen as 0. recvmsg handlers must
set msg_namelen to the proper size <= sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage)
to return msg_name to the user.
This prevents numerous uninitialized memory leaks we had in the
recvmsg handlers and makes it harder for new code to accidentally leak
uninitialized memory.
Optimize for the case recvfrom is called with NULL as address. We don't
need to copy the address at all, so set it to NULL before invoking the
recvmsg handler. We can do so, because all the recvmsg handlers must
cope with the case a plain read() is called on them. read() also sets
msg_name to NULL.
Also document these changes in include/linux/net.h as suggested by David
Miller.
Changes since RFC:
Set msg->msg_name = NULL if user specified a NULL in msg_name but had a
non-null msg_namelen in verify_iovec/verify_compat_iovec. This doesn't
affect sendto as it would bail out earlier while trying to copy-in the
address. It also more naturally reflects the logic by the callers of
verify_iovec.
With this change in place I could remove "
if (!uaddr || msg_sys->msg_namelen == 0)
msg->msg_name = NULL
".
This change does not alter the user visible error logic as we ignore
msg_namelen as long as msg_name is NULL.
Also remove two unnecessary curly brackets in ___sys_recvmsg and change
comments to netdev style.

Only update *addr_len when we actually fill in sockaddr, otherwise we
can return uninitialized memory from the stack to the caller in the
recvfrom, recvmmsg and recvmsg syscalls. Drop the the (addr_len == NULL)
checks because we only get called with a valid addr_len pointer either
from sock_common_recvmsg or inet_recvmsg.
If a blocking read waits on a socket which is concurrently shut down we
now return zero and set msg_msgnamelen to 0.

For performance reasons, sch_fq tried hard to not setup timers for every
sent packet, using a quantum based heuristic : A delay is setup only if
the flow exhausted its credit.
Problem is that application limited flows can refill their credit
for every queued packet, and they can evade pacing.
This problem can also be triggered when TCP flows use small MSS values,
as TSO auto sizing builds packets that are smaller than the default fq
quantum (3028 bytes)
This patch adds a 40 ms delay to guard flow credit refill.

In af3e095a1fb4, Erik Jacobsen fixed one type of unaligned access
bug for ia64 by converting a 64-bit write to use put_unaligned().
Unfortunately, since gcc will convert a short memset() to a series
of appropriately-aligned stores, the problem is now visible again
on tilegx, where the memset that zeros out proc_event is converted
to three 64-bit stores, causing an unaligned access panic.
A better fix for the original problem is to ensure that proc_event
is aligned to 8 bytes here. We can do that relatively easily by
arranging to start the struct cn_msg aligned to 8 bytes and then
offset by 4 bytes. Doing so means that the immediately following
proc_event structure is then correctly aligned to 8 bytes.
The result is that the memset() stores are now aligned, and as an
added benefit, we can remove the put_unaligned() calls in the code.

This clashes with setups using PRIO with say 7 bands, as one of the

Packets would be queued in the 'internal' queue, and no pacing ever

Bug has been introduced by commit bb8140947a24 ("ip6tnl: allow to use rtnl ops

When ip6_tunnel.ko is unloaded, FB device is delete by rtnl_link_unregister()
and then we try to use the pointer in ip6_tnl_destroy_tunnels().
Let's add an handler for dellink, which will never remove the FB tunnel. With
this patch it will no more be possible to remove it via 'ip link del ip6tnl0',
but it's safer.

Bug: The fallback device is created in sit_init_net and assumed to be
freed in sit_exit_net. First, it is dereferenced in that function, in
sit_destroy_tunnels:
struct net *net = dev_net(sitn->fb_tunnel_dev);
Prior to this, rtnl_unlink_register has removed all devices that match
rtnl_link_ops == sit_link_ops.
which cases the fallback device to match here and be freed before it
is last dereferenced.
Fix: This commit adds an explicit .delllink callback to sit_link_ops
that skips deallocation at rtnl_unlink_register for the fallback
device. This mechanism is comparable to the one in ip_tunnel.
It also modifies sit_destroy_tunnels and its only caller sit_exit_net
to avoid the offending dereference in the first place. That double
lookup is more complicated than required.
Test: The bug is only triggered when CONFIG_NET_NS is enabled. It
causes a GPF only when CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB is enabled. Verified that
this bug exists at the mentioned commit, at davem-net HEAD and at

After commit c9eeec26e32e ("tcp: TSQ can use a dynamic limit"), several
users reported throughput regressions, notably on mvneta and wifi
adapters.
802.11 AMPDU requires a fair amount of queueing to be effective.
This patch partially reverts the change done in tcp_write_xmit()
so that the minimal amount is sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes.
It also remove the use of this sysctl while building skb stored
in write queue, as TSO autosizing does the right thing anyway.
Users with well behaving NICS and correct qdisc (like sch_fq),
can then lower the default sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes value from
128KB to 8KB.
This new usage of sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes permits each driver
authors to check how their driver performs when/if the value is set
to a minimum of 4KB.
Normally, line rate for a single TCP flow should be possible,
but some drivers rely on timers to perform TX completion and
too long TX completion delays prevent reaching full throughput.

If priority/traffic class field in IPv6 header is set (seen when
using ssh), the uncompression sets the TC and Flow fields incorrectly.
Example:
This is IPv6 header of a sent packet. Note the priority/TC (=1) in
the first byte.
00000000: 61 00 00 00 00 2c 06 40 fe 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000010: 02 02 72 ff fe c6 42 10 fe 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000020: 02 1e ab ff fe 4c 52 57
This gets compressed like this in the sending side
00000000: 72 31 04 06 02 1e ab ff fe 4c 52 57 ec c2 00 16 00000010: aa 2d fe 92 86 4e be c6 ....
In the receiving end, the packet gets uncompressed to this
IPv6 header
00000000: 60 06 06 02 00 2a 1e 40 fe 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000010: 02 02 72 ff fe c6 42 10 fe 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 00000020: ab ff fe 4c 52 57 ec c2
First four bytes are set incorrectly and we have also lost
two bytes from destination address.
The fix is to switch the case values in switch statement
when checking the TC field.

For properly initialising the Tausworthe generator [1], we have
a strict seeding requirement, that is, s1 > 1, s2 > 7, s3 > 15.
Commit 697f8d0348 ("random32: seeding improvement") introduced
a __seed() function that imposes boundary checks proposed by the
errata paper [2] to properly ensure above conditions.
However, we're off by one, as the function is implemented as:
"return (x < m) ? x + m : x;", and called with __seed(X, 1),
__seed(X, 7), __seed(X, 15). Thus, an unwanted seed of 1, 7, 15
would be possible, whereas the lower boundary should actually
be of at least 2, 8, 16, just as GSL does. Fix this, as otherwise
an initialization with an unwanted seed could have the effect
that Tausworthe's PRNG properties cannot not be ensured.
Note that this PRNG is *not* used for cryptography in the kernel.

NULL, that means that overriding will not happen, because those default

The PL061 driver had the irqdomain initialization in an unfortunate
place: when used with device tree (and thus passing the base IRQ
0) the driver would work, as this registers an irqdomain and waits
for mappings to be done dynamically as the devices request their
IRQs, whereas when booting using platform data the irqdomain core
would attempt to allocate IRQ descriptors dynamically (which works
fine) but also to associate the irq_domain_associate_many() on all
IRQs, which in turn will call the mapping function which at this
point will try to set the type of the IRQ and then tries to acquire
a non-initialized spinlock yielding a backtrace like this:
This moves the irqdomain initialization to a point where the spinlock
and GPIO chip are both fully propulated, so the callbacks can be used
without crashes.
I had some problem reproducing the crash, as the devm_kzalloc():ed
zeroed memory would seemingly mask the spinlock as something OK,
but by poisoning the lock like this:
u32 *dum;
dum = (u32 *) &chip->lock;
*dum = 0xaaaaaaaaU;
I could reproduce, fix and test the patch.

By default the Logitech Formula Vibration presents a combined accel/brake
axis ('Y'). This patch modifies the HID descriptor to present seperate
accel/brake axes ('Y' and 'Z').
Most of the hid sensor field size is reported in report_size field
in the report descriptor. For rotation fusion sensor the quaternion
data is 16 byte field, the report size was set to 4 and report
count field is set to 4. So the total size is 16 bytes. But the current
driver has a bug and not taking account for report count field. This
causes user space to see only 4 bytes of data sent via IIO interface.
The number of bytes in a field needs to take account of report_count
field. Need to multiply report_size and report_count to get total
number of bytes.
In the case that atomic_open calls finish_no_open() with
the dentry that was supplied to gfs2_atomic_open() an
extra reference count is required. This patch fixes that
issue preventing a bug trap triggering at umount time.

Certain devices with class HID, protocol None did not work with the HID
driver at one point, and as a result were bound to usbtouchscreen
instead as of commit 139ebe8 ("Input: usbtouchscreen - fix eGalax HID
ignoring"). This change was prompted by the following report:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/25/127
Unfortunately, the device mentioned in this report is no longer
available for testing.
We've recently discovered that some devices with class HID, protocol
None do not work with usbtouchscreen, but do work with usbhid. Here is
the report that made this evident:
Driver binding for these devices has flip-flopped a few times, so both
of the above reports were regressions.
This situation would appear to leave us with no easy way to bind every
device to the right driver. However, in my own testing with several
devices I have not found a device with class HID that does not work with
the current HID driver. It is my belief that changes to the HID driver
since the original report have likely fixed the issue(s) that made it
unsuitable at the time, and that we should prefer it over usbtouchscreen
for these devices. In particular, HID quirks affecting these devices
were added/removed in the following commits since then:
fe6065d HID: add multi-input quirk for eGalax Touchcontroller 77933c3 Merge branch 'egalax' into for-linus ebd11fe HID: Add quirk for eGalax touch controler. d34c4aa HID: add no-get quirk for eGalax touch controller
This patch makes the HID driver no longer ignore eGalax/D-Wav/EETI
devices with class HID. If there are in fact devices with class HID
that still do not work with the HID driver, we will see another round of
regressions. In that case I propose we investigate why the device is
not working with the HID driver rather than re-introduce regressions for
functioning HID devices by again binding them to usbtouchscreen.
The corresponding change to usbtouchscreen will be made separately.
If hardware (or firmware) detects palm on the surface of the device it does
not mean that the data packet is bad from the protocol standpoint. Instead
of reporting PSMOUSE_BAD_DATA in this case simply threat it as if nothing
touches the surface.

evdev always tries to allocate the event buffer for clients using
kzalloc rather than vmalloc, presumably to avoid mapping overhead where
possible. However, drivers like bcm5974, which claims support for
reporting 16 fingers simultaneously, can have an extraordinarily large
buffer. The resultant contiguous order-4 allocation attempt fails due
to fragmentation, and the device is thus unusable until reboot.
Try kzalloc if we can to avoid the mapping overhead, but if that fails,
fall back to vzalloc.

New tracepoints have been added that have allowed for NULL pointers
being assigned to strings. To fix this, change the TRACE_EVENT() code
to check for NULL and if it is, it will assign "(null)" to it instead
(similar to what glibc printf does).
The current generic parser assumes blindly that the volume and mute
amps are found in the aamix node itself. But on some codecs,
typically Analog Devices ones, the aamix amps are separately
implemented in each leaf node of the aamix node, and the current
driver can't establish the correct amp controls. This is a regression
compared with the previous static quirks.
This patch extends the search for the amps to the leaf nodes for
allowing the aamix controls again on such codecs.
In this implementation, I didn't code to loop through the whole paths,
since usually one depth should suffice, and we can't search too
deeply, as it may result in the conflicting control assignments.
Add a fixup entry for the missing bass speaker pin 0x16 on ASUS ET2700
AiO desktop. The channel map will be added in the next patch, so that
this can be backported easily to stable kernels.
When a headphone jack is configurable as input, the generic parser
tries to make it retaskable as Headphone Mic. The switching can be
done smoothly if Capture Source control exists (i.e. there is another
input source). Or when user explicitly enables the creation of jack
mode controls, "Headhpone Mic Jack Mode" will be created accordingly.
However, if the headphone mic is the only input source, we have to
create "Headphone Mic Jack Mode" control because there is no capture
source selection. Otherwise, the generic parser assumes that the
input is constantly enabled, thus the headphone is permanently set
as input. This situation happens on the old MacBook Airs where no
input is supported properly, for example.
This patch fixes the problem: now "Headphone Mic Jack Mode" is created
when such an input selection isn't possible.
Which reports that we take mems_allowed_seq with interrupts enabled. A
little digging found that this can only be from
cpuset_change_task_nodemask().
This is an actual deadlock because an interrupt doing an allocation will
hit get_mems_allowed()->...->__read_seqcount_begin(), which will spin
forever waiting for the write side to complete.

If a cgroup file implements either read_map() or read_seq_string(),
such file is served using seq_file by overriding file->f_op to
cgroup_seqfile_operations, which also overrides the release method to
single_release() from cgroup_file_release().
Because cgroup_file_open() didn't use to acquire any resources, this
used to be fine, but since f7d58818ba42 ("cgroup: pin
cgroup_subsys_state when opening a cgroupfs file"), cgroup_file_open()
pins the css (cgroup_subsys_state) which is put by
cgroup_file_release(). The patch forgot to update the release path
for seq_files and each open/release cycle leaks a css reference.
Fix it by updating cgroup_file_release() to also handle seq_files and
using it for seq_file release path too.
Since be44562613851 ("cgroup: remove synchronize_rcu() from
cgroup_diput()"), cgroup destruction path makes use of workqueue. css
freeing is performed from a work item from that point on and a later
commit, ea15f8ccdb430 ("cgroup: split cgroup destruction into two
steps"), moves css offlining to workqueue too.
As cgroup destruction isn't depended upon for memory reclaim, the
destruction work items were put on the system_wq; unfortunately, some
controller may block in the destruction path for considerable duration
while holding cgroup_mutex. As large part of destruction path is
synchronized through cgroup_mutex, when combined with high rate of
cgroup removals, this has potential to fill up system_wq's max_active
of 256.
Also, it turns out that memcg's css destruction path ends up queueing
and waiting for work items on system_wq through work_on_cpu(). If
such operation happens while system_wq is fully occupied by cgroup
destruction work items, work_on_cpu() can't make forward progress
because system_wq is full and other destruction work items on
system_wq can't make forward progress because the work item waiting
for work_on_cpu() is holding cgroup_mutex, leading to deadlock.
This can be fixed by queueing destruction work items on a separate
workqueue. This patch creates a dedicated workqueue -
cgroup_destroy_wq - for this purpose. As these work items shouldn't
have inter-dependencies and mostly serialized by cgroup_mutex anyway,
giving high concurrency level doesn't buy anything and the workqueue's
@max_active is set to 1 so that destruction work items are executed
one by one on each CPU.
Hugh Dickins: Because cgroup_init() is run before init_workqueues(),
cgroup_destroy_wq can't be allocated from cgroup_init(). Do it from a
separate core_initcall(). In the future, we probably want to reorder
so that workqueue init happens before cgroup_init().
An ordered workqueue implements execution ordering by using single
pool_workqueue with max_active == 1. On a given pool_workqueue, work
items are processed in FIFO order and limiting max_active to 1
enforces the queued work items to be processed one by one.
Unfortunately, 4c16bd327c ("workqueue: implement NUMA affinity for
unbound workqueues") accidentally broke this guarantee by applying
NUMA affinity to ordered workqueues too. On NUMA setups, an ordered
workqueue would end up with separate pool_workqueues for different
nodes. Each pool_workqueue still limits max_active to 1 but multiple
work items may be executed concurrently and out of order depending on
which node they are queued to.
Fix it by using dedicated ordered_wq_attrs[] when creating ordered
workqueues. The new attrs match the unbound ones except that no_numa
is always set thus forcing all NUMA nodes to share the default
pool_workqueue.
While at it, add sanity check in workqueue creation path which
verifies that an ordered workqueues has only the default
pool_workqueue.
When translating a user space address, the address must be checked against
the ASCE limit of the process. If the address is larger than the maximum
address that is reachable with the ASCE, an ASCE type exception must be
generated.
The current code simply ignored the higher order bits. This resulted in an
address wrap around in user space instead of an exception in user space.
PTE_PROT_NONE means that a pte is present but does not have any
read/write attributes. However, setting the memory type like
pgprot_writecombine() is allowed and such bits overlap with
PTE_PROT_NONE. This causes mmap/munmap issues in drivers that change the
vma->vm_pg_prot on PROT_NONE mappings.
This patch reverts the PTE_FILE/PTE_PROT_NONE shift in commit 59911ca4325d (ARM64: mm: Move PTE_PROT_NONE bit) and moves PTE_PROT_NONE
together with the other software bits.

Secondly, the original patch isn't clear what MSR VSX should be set to. The
new approach below always clears the MSR VSX bit (to indicate no VSX is in the
context) and sets it only in the specific case where VSX is available (ie. when
VSX has been used and the signal context passed has space to provide the
state).
This reverts the original patch and replaces it with the improved solution. It
also adds a 64 bit version.

UHID allows short writes so user-space can omit unused fields. We
automatically set them to 0 in the kernel. However, the 64/32 bit
compat-handler didn't do that in the UHID_CREATE fallback. This will
reveal random kernel heap data (of random size, even) to user-space.

commit 7a0a5355cbc71efa md: Don't test all of mddev->flags at once.
made most tests on mddev->flags safer, but missed one.
When
commit 260fa034ef7a4ff8b7306 md: avoid deadlock when dirty buffers during md_stop.
added MD_STILL_CLOSED, this caused md_check_recovery to misbehave.
It can think there is something to do but find nothing. This can
lead to the md thread spinning during array shutdown.

This can happen if there are some stripes left, fewer than MAX_STRIPE_BATCH.
A worker is queued to handle them.
But before calling raid5_do_work, raid5d handles those
stripes making conf->active_stripe = 0.
So mddev_suspend() can return.
We might then free old worker resources before the queued
raid5_do_work() handled them. When it runs, it crashes.
The various ->run routines of md personalities assume that the 'queue'
has been initialised by the blk_set_stacking_limits() call in
md_alloc().
However when the level is changed (by level_store()) the ->run routine
for the new level is called for an array which has already had the
stacking limits modified. This can result in incorrect final
settings.
So call blk_set_stacking_limits() before ->run in level_store().
A specific consequence of this bug is that it causes
discard_granularity to be set incorrectly when reshaping a RAID4 to a
RAID0.
This is suitable for any -stable kernel since 3.3 in which
blk_set_stacking_limits() was introduced.
When release_stripe() is called in grow_one_stripe(), the
mddev->thread is null. So it will omit one wakeup this thread to
release stripe.
For this condition, use slow_path to release stripe.
setfacl over cifs mounts can remove the default ACL when setting the
(non-default part of) the ACL and vice versa (we were leaving at 0
rather than setting to -1 the count field for the unaffected
half of the ACL. For example notice the setfacl removed
the default ACL in this sequence:
