2014-04-09mac80211: update last_tx_rate only for data frameChun-Yeow Yeoh1-0/+1
Rate controller in firmware may also return the Tx Rate used for management frame that is usually sent as lowest Tx Rate (1Mbps in 2.4GHz). So update the last_tx_rate only if it is data frame.

2014-04-09mac80211: fix radar_enabled propagationMichal Kazior1-2/+2
If chandef had non-HT width it was possible for radar_enabled update to not be propagated properly through drv_config(). This happened because ieee80211_hw_conf_chan() would never see different local->hw.conf.chandef and local->_oper_chandef. This wasn't a problem with HT chandefs because _oper_chandef width is reset to non-HT in ieee80211_free_chanctx() making ieee80211_hw_conf_chan() to kick in. This problem led (at least) ath10k to not start CAC if prior CAC was cancelled and both CACs were requested for identical non-HT chandefs.

2014-04-09mac80211: fix software remain-on-channel implementationJohannes Berg1-0/+1
Jouni reported that when doing off-channel transmissions mixed with on-channel transmissions, the on-channel ones ended up on the off-channel in some cases. The reason for that is that during the refactoring of the off- channel code, I lost the part that stopped all activity and as a consequence the on-channel frames (including data frames) were no longer queued but would be transmitted on the temporary channel. Fix this by simply restoring the lost activity stop call.

Fix from Mike Rapoport. 2) Missing includes in CPTS driver, from Alexei Starovoitov. 3) Fix string validations in isdnloop driver, from YOSHIFUJI Hideaki and Dan Carpenter. 4) Missing irq.h include in bnxw2x, enic, and qlcnic drivers. From Josh Boyer. 5) AF_PACKET transmit doesn't statistically count TX drops, from Daniel Borkmann. 6) Byte-Queue-Limit enabled drivers aren't handled properly in AF_PACKET transmit path, also from Daniel Borkmann. Same problem exists in pktgen, and Daniel fixed it there too. 7) Fix resource leaks in driver probe error paths of new sxgbe driver, from Francois Romieu. 8) Truesize of SKBs can gradually get more and more corrupted in NAPI packet recycling path, fix from Eric Dumazet. 9) Fix uniprocessor netfilter build, from Florian Westphal. In the longer term we should perhaps try to find a way for ARRAY_SIZE() to work even with zero sized array elements. 10) Fix crash in netfilter conntrack extensions due to mis-estimation of required extension space. From Andrey Vagin. 11) Since we commit table rule updates before trying to copy the counters back to userspace (it's the last action we perform), we really can't signal the user copy with an error as we are beyond the point from which we can unwind everything. This causes all kinds of use after free crashes and other mysterious behavior. From Thomas Graf. 12) Restore previous behvaior of div/mod by zero in BPF filter processing.

2014-04-08net: sctp: wake up all assocs if sndbuf policy is per socketDaniel Borkmann1-1/+35
SCTP charges chunks for wmem accounting via skb->truesize in sctp_set_owner_w(), and sctp_wfree() respectively as the reverse operation. If a sender runs out of wmem, it needs to wait via sctp_wait_for_sndbuf(), and gets woken up by a call to __sctp_write_space() mostly via sctp_wfree(). __sctp_write_space() is being called per association. Although we assign sk->sk_write_space() to sctp_write_space(), which is then being done per socket, it is only used if send space is increased per socket option (SO_SNDBUF), as SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE is set and therefore not invoked in sock_wfree(). Commit 4c3a5bdae293 ("sctp: Don't charge for data in sndbuf again when transmitting packet") fixed an issue where in case sctp_packet_transmit() manages to queue up more than sndbuf bytes, sctp_wait_for_sndbuf() will never be woken up again unless it is interrupted by a signal. However, a still remaining issue is that if net.sctp.sndbuf_policy=0, that is accounting per socket, and one-to-many sockets are in use, the reclaimed write space from sctp_wfree() is 'unfairly' handed back on the server to the association that is the lucky one to be woken up again via __sctp_write_space(), while the remaining associations are never be woken up again (unless by a signal). The effect disappears with net.sctp.sndbuf_policy=1, that is wmem accounting per association, as it guarantees a fair share of wmem among associations. Therefore, if we have reclaimed memory in case of per socket accounting, wake all related associations to a socket in a fair manner, that is, traverse the socket association list starting from the current neighbour of the association and issue a __sctp_write_space() to everyone until we end up waking ourselves. This guarantees that no association is preferred over another and even if more associations are taken into the one-to-many session, all receivers will get messages from the server and are not stalled forever on high load. This setting still leaves the advantage of per socket accounting in touch as an association can still use up global limits if unused by others.

2014-04-08isdnloop: several buffer overflowsDan Carpenter1-8/+9
There are three buffer overflows addressed in this patch. 1) In isdnloop_fake_err() we add an 'E' to a 60 character string and then copy it into a 60 character buffer. I have made the destination buffer 64 characters and I'm changed the sprintf() to a snprintf(). 2) In isdnloop_parse_cmd(), p points to a 6 characters into a 60 character buffer so we have 54 characters. The ->eazlist[] is 11 characters long. I have modified the code to return if the source buffer is too long. 3) In isdnloop_command() the cbuf[] array was 60 characters long but the max length of the string then can be up to 79 characters. I made the cbuf array 80 characters long and changed the sprintf() to snprintf(). I also removed the temporary "dial" buffer and changed it to use "p" directly. Unfortunately, we pass the "cbuf" string from isdnloop_command() to isdnloop_writecmd() which truncates anything over 60 characters to make it fit in card->omsg[]. (It can accept values up to 255 characters so long as there is a '\n' character every 60 characters). For now I have just fixed the memory corruption bug and left the other problems in this driver alone. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-04-08DRM: armada: fix corruption while loading cursorsRussell King1-0/+1
Loading cursors to the LCD controller's SRAM can be corrupted when the configured pixel clock is relatively slow. This seems to be caused when we write back-to-back to the SRAM registers. There doesn't appear to be any status register we can read to check when an access has completed. Inserting a dummy read between the writes appears to fix the problem.

Some architectures have optional MMU. In the no-MMU case, the remap functions simply return the passed in physical address and the unmap functions do nothing.

2014-04-07x86/mm: sparse warning fix for early_memremapDave Young2-4/+9
This patch series takes the common bits from the x86 early ioremap implementation and creates a generic implementation which may be used by other architectures. The early ioremap interfaces are intended for situations where boot code needs to make temporary virtual mappings before the normal ioremap interfaces are available. Typically, this means before paging_init() has run. This patch (of 6): There's a lot of sparse warnings for code like below: void *a = early_memremap(phys_addr, size); early_memremap intend to map kernel memory with ioremap facility, the return pointer should be a kernel ram pointer instead of iomem one. For making the function clearer and supressing sparse warnings this patch do below two things: 1. cast to (__force void *) for the return value of early_memremap 2. add early_memunmap function and pass (__force void __iomem *) to iounmap From Boris: "Ingo told me yesterday, it makes sense too. I'd guess we can try it. FWIW, all callers of early_memremap use the memory they get remapped as normal memory so we should be safe" Signed-off-by: Dave Young <dyoung@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com> Acked-by: H.

2014-04-07net: replace __this_cpu_inc in route.c with raw_cpu_incChristoph Lameter1-1/+1
The RT_CACHE_STAT_INC macro triggers the new preemption checks for __this_cpu ops. I do not see any other synchronization that would allow the use of a __this_cpu operation here however in commit dbd2915ce87e ("[IPV4]: RT_CACHE_STAT_INC() warning fix") Andrew justifies the use of raw_smp_processor_id() here because "we do not care" about races. In the past we agreed that the price of disabling interrupts here to get consistent counters would be too high. These counters may be inaccurate due to race conditions. The use of __this_cpu op improves the situation already from what commit dbd2915ce87e did since the single instruction emitted on x86 does not allow the race to occur anymore. However, non x86 platforms could still experience a race here.

2014-04-07mm: use raw_cpu ops for determining current NUMA nodeChristoph Lameter1-2/+2
With the preempt checking logic for __this_cpu_ops we will get false positives from locations in the code that use numa_node_id. Before the __this_cpu ops where introduced there were no checks for preemption present either. smp_raw_processor_id() was used. See http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-numa/msg00641.html Therefore we need to use raw_cpu_read here to avoid false postives. Note that this issue has been discussed in prior years. If the process changes nodes after retrieving the current numa node then that is acceptable since most uses of numa_node etc are for optimization and not for correctness. There were suggestions to implement a raw_numa_node_id in order to do preempt checks for numa_node_id as well. But I think we better defer that to another patch since that would mean investigating how numa_node_id() is used throughout the kernel which would increase the scope of this patchset significantly. After all preemption was never checked before when numa_node_id() was used.

2014-04-07percpu: add raw_cpu_opsChristoph Lameter4-198/+260
The kernel has never been audited to ensure that this_cpu operations are consistently used throughout the kernel. The code generated in many places can be improved through the use of this_cpu operations (which uses a segment register for relocation of per cpu offsets instead of performing address calculations). The patch set also addresses various consistency issues in general with the per cpu macros. A. The semantics of __this_cpu_ptr() differs from this_cpu_ptr only because checks are skipped. This is typically shown through a raw_ prefix. So this patch set changes the places where __this_cpu_ptr() is used to raw_cpu_ptr(). B. There has been the long term wish by some that __this_cpu operations would check for preemption. However, there are cases where preemption checks need to be skipped. This patch set adds raw_cpu operations that do not check for preemption and then adds preemption checks to the __this_cpu operations. C. The use of __get_cpu_var is always a reference to a percpu variable that can also be handled via a this_cpu operation. This patch set replaces all uses of __get_cpu_var with this_cpu operations. D. We can then use this_cpu RMW operations in various places replacing sequences of instructions by a single one. E. The use of this_cpu operations throughout will allow other arches than x86 to implement optimized references and RMV operations to work with per cpu local data. F. The use of this_cpu operations opens up the possibility to further optimize code that relies on synchronization through per cpu data. The patch set works in a couple of stages: I. Patch 1 adds the additional raw_cpu operations and raw_cpu_ptr(). Also converts the existing __this_cpu_xx_# primitive in the x86 code to raw_cpu_xx_#. II. Patch 2-4 use the raw_cpu operations in places that would give us false positives once they are enabled. III. Patch 5 adds preemption checks to __this_cpu operations to allow checking if preemption is properly disabled when these functions are used. IV. Patches 6-20 are patches that simply replace uses of __get_cpu_var with this_cpu_ptr. They do not depend on any changes to the percpu code. No preemption tests are skipped if they are applied. V. Patches 21-46 are conversion patches that use this_cpu operations in various kernel subsystems/drivers or arch code. VI. Patches 47/48 (not included in this series) remove no longer used functions (__this_cpu_ptr and __get_cpu_var). These should only be applied after all the conversion patches have made it and after we have done additional passes through the kernel to ensure that none of the uses of these functions remain. This patch (of 46): The patches following this one will add preemption checks to __this_cpu ops so we need to have an alternative way to use this_cpu operations without preemption checks. raw_cpu_ops will be the basis for all other ops since these will be the operations that do not implement any checks. Primitive operations are renamed by this patch from __this_cpu_xxx to raw_cpu_xxxx. Also change the uses of the x86 percpu primitives in preempt.h. These depend directly on asm/percpu.h (header #include nesting issue).

2014-04-07slub: rework sysfs layout for memcg cachesVladimir Davydov2-1/+28
Currently, we try to arrange sysfs entries for memcg caches in the same manner as for global caches. Apart from turning /sys/kernel/slab into a mess when there are a lot of kmem-active memcgs created, it actually does not work properly - we won't create more than one link to a memcg cache in case its parent is merged with another cache. For instance, if A is a root cache merged with another root cache B, we will have the following sysfs setup: X A -> X B -> X where X is some unique id (see create_unique_id()). Now if memcgs M and N start to allocate from cache A (or B, which is the same), we will get: X X:M X:N A -> X B -> X A:M -> X:M A:N -> X:N Since B is an alias for A, we won't get entries B:M and B:N, which is confusing. It is more logical to have entries for memcg caches under the corresponding root cache's sysfs directory. This would allow us to keep sysfs layout clean, and avoid such inconsistencies like one described above. This patch does the trick. It creates a "cgroup" kset in each root cache kobject to keep its children caches there.

2014-04-07memcg, slab: do not destroy children caches if parent has aliasesVladimir Davydov3-37/+57
Currently we destroy children caches at the very beginning of kmem_cache_destroy(). This is wrong, because the root cache will not necessarily be destroyed in the end - if it has aliases (refcount > 0), kmem_cache_destroy() will simply decrement its refcount and return. In this case, at best we will get a bunch of warnings in dmesg, like this one: kmem_cache_destroy kmalloc-32:0: Slab cache still has objects CPU: 1 PID: 7139 Comm: modprobe Tainted: G B W 3.13.0+ #117 Call Trace: dump_stack+0x49/0x5b kmem_cache_destroy+0xdf/0xf0 kmem_cache_destroy_memcg_children+0x97/0xc0 kmem_cache_destroy+0xf/0xf0 xfs_mru_cache_uninit+0x21/0x30 [xfs] exit_xfs_fs+0x2e/0xc44 [xfs] SyS_delete_module+0x198/0x1f0 system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b At worst - if kmem_cache_destroy() will race with an allocation from a memcg cache - the kernel will panic. This patch fixes this by moving children caches destruction after the check if the cache has aliases. Plus, it forbids destroying a root cache if it still has children caches, because each children cache keeps a reference to its parent.

2014-04-07memcg, slab: unregister cache from memcg before starting to destroy itVladimir Davydov2-7/+8
Currently, memcg_unregister_cache(), which deletes the cache being destroyed from the memcg_slab_caches list, is called after __kmem_cache_shutdown() (see kmem_cache_destroy()), which starts to destroy the cache. As a result, one can access a partially destroyed cache while traversing a memcg_slab_caches list, which can have deadly consequences (for instance, cache_show() called for each cache on a memcg_slab_caches list from mem_cgroup_slabinfo_read() will dereference pointers to already freed data). To fix this, let's move memcg_unregister_cache() before the cache destruction process beginning, issuing memcg_register_cache() on failure.

This patch cleans up the memcg cache creation path as follows: - Move memcg cache name creation to a separate function to be called from kmem_cache_create_memcg(). This allows us to get rid of the mutex protecting the temporary buffer used for the name formatting, because the whole cache creation path is protected by the slab_mutex. - Get rid of memcg_create_kmem_cache(). This function serves as a proxy to kmem_cache_create_memcg(). After separating the cache name creation path, it would be reduced to a function call, so let's inline it.

2014-04-07memcg, slab: never try to merge memcg cachesVladimir Davydov3-30/+18
When a kmem cache is created (kmem_cache_create_memcg()), we first try to find a compatible cache that already exists and can handle requests from the new cache, i.e. has the same object size, alignment, ctor, etc. If there is such a cache, we do not create any new caches, instead we simply increment the refcount of the cache found and return it. Currently we do this procedure not only when creating root caches, but also for memcg caches. However, there is no point in that, because, as every memcg cache has exactly the same parameters as its parent and cache merging cannot be turned off in runtime (only on boot by passing "slub_nomerge"), the root caches of any two potentially mergeable memcg caches should be merged already, i.e. it must be the same root cache, and therefore we couldn't even get to the memcg cache creation, because it already exists. The only exception is boot caches - they are explicitly forbidden to be merged by setting their refcount to -1. There are currently only two of them - kmem_cache and kmem_cache_node, which are used in slab internals (I do not count kmalloc caches as their refcount is set to 1 immediately after creation). Since they are prevented from merging preliminary I guess we should avoid to merge their children too. So let's remove the useless code responsible for merging memcg caches.

2014-04-07kernel: use macros from compiler.h instead of __attribute__((...))Gideon Israel Dsouza13-21/+34
To increase compiler portability there is <linux/compiler.h> which provides convenience macros for various gcc constructs. Eg: __weak for __attribute__((weak)). I've replaced all instances of gcc attributes with the right macro in the kernel subsystem. Signed-off-by: Gideon Israel Dsouza <gidisrael@gmail.com> Cc: "Rafael J.
