git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"After a lot of discussion and work we have finally reachanged a basic
understanding of what is necessary to make unprivileged mounts safe in
the presence of EVM and IMA xattrs which the last commit in this
series reflects. While technically it is a revert the comments it adds
are important for people not getting confused in the future. Clearing
up that confusion allows us to seriously work on unprivileged mounts
of fuse in the next development cycle.
The rest of the fixes in this set are in the intersection of user
namespaces, ptrace, and exec. I started with the first fix which
started a feedback cycle of finding additional issues during review
and fixing them. Culiminating in a fix for a bug that has been present
since at least Linux v1.0.
Potentially these fixes were candidates for being merged during the rc
cycle, and are certainly backport candidates but enough little things
turned up during review and testing that I decided they should be
handled as part of the normal development process just to be certain
there were not any great surprises when it came time to backport some
of these fixes"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:
Revert "evm: Translate user/group ids relative to s_user_ns when computing HMAC"
exec: Ensure mm->user_ns contains the execed files
ptrace: Don't allow accessing an undumpable mm

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
"After the small number of patches for v4.9, we've got a much bigger
pile for v4.10.
The bulk of these patches involve a rework of the audit backlog queue
to enable us to move the netlink multicasting out of the task/thread
that generates the audit record and into the kernel thread that emits
the record (just like we do for the audit unicast to auditd).
While we were playing with the backlog queue(s) we fixed a number of
other little problems with the code, and from all the testing so far
things look to be in much better shape now. Doing this also allowed us
to re-enable disabling IRQs for some netns operations ("netns: avoid
disabling irq for netns id").
The remaining patches fix some small problems that are well documented
in the commit descriptions, as well as adding session ID filtering
support"

We truncated the possible read iterator to s_maxbytes in commit
c2a9737f45e2 ("vfs,mm: fix a dead loop in truncate_inode_pages_range()"),
but our end condition handling was wrong: it's not an error to try to
read at the end of the file.
Reading past the end should return EOF (0), not EINVAL.
See for example
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1649342
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2016-12/msg00008.html
where a md5sum of a maximally sized file fails because the final read is
exactly at s_maxbytes.

Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
"No dramatic changes are found in this development cycle, but as usual,
many commits are applied in a wide range of drivers.
Most of big changes are in ASoC, where a few bits of framework work
and quite a lot of cleanups and improvements to existing code have
been done. The rest are usual stuff, a few HD-audio and USB-audio
quirks and fixes, as well as the drop of kthread usages in the whole
subsystem.
Below are some highlights:
ASoC:
- support for stereo DAPM controls
- some initial work on the of-graph sound card
- regmap conversions of the remaining AC'97 drivers
- a new version of the topology ABI; this should be backward
compatible
- updates / cleanups of rsnd, sunxi, sti, nau8825, samsung, arizona,
Intel skylake, atom-sst
- new drivers for Cirrus Logic CS42L42, Qualcomm MSM8916-WCD, and
Realtek RT5665
USB-audio:
- yet another race fix at disconnection
- tolerated packet size calculation for some Android devices
- quirks for Axe-Fx II, QuickCam, TEAC 501/503
HD-audio:
- improvement of Dell pin fixup mapping
- quirks for HP Z1 Gen3, Alienware 15 R2 2016 and ALC622 headset mic

Pull MD updates from Shaohua Li:
- a raid5 writeback cache feature.
The goal is to aggregate writes to make full stripe write and reduce

write and follows fsync for example. This feature is experimental and
off by default right now.
- FAILFAST support.
This fails IOs to broken raid disks quickly, so can improve latency.

Resetting audit_sock appears to be racy.
audit_sock was being copied and dereferenced without using a refcount on
the source sock.
Bump the refcount on the underlying sock when we store a refrence in
audit_sock and release it when we reset audit_sock. audit_sock
modification needs the audit_cmd_mutex.

Sleeping on a command record/message in audit_log_start() could slow
something, e.g. auditd, from doing something important, e.g. clean
shutdown, which could present problems on a heavily loaded system.
This patch allows tasks to bypass any queue restrictions if they are
logging a command record/message.

When auditd stops cleanly it sets 'auditd_pid' to 0 with an
AUDIT_SET message, in this case we should reset our backlog
queues via the auditd_reset() function. This patch also adds
a 'auditd_pid' check to the top of kauditd_send_unicast_skb()
so we can fail quicker.

The backlog queue handling in audit_log_start() is a little odd with
some questionable design decisions, this patch attempts to rectify
this with the following changes:
* Never make auditd wait, ignore any backlog limits as we need auditd
awake so it can drain the backlog queue.
* When we hit a backlog limit and start dropping records, don't wake
all the tasks sleeping on the backlog, that's silly. Instead, let
kauditd_thread() take care of waking everyone once it has had a chance
to drain the backlog queue.
* Don't keep a global backlog timeout countdown, make it per-task. A
per-task timer means we won't have all the sleeping tasks waking at
the same time and hammering on an already stressed backlog queue.

The audit record backlog queue has always been a bit of a mess, and
the moving the multicast send into kauditd_thread() from
audit_log_end() only makes things worse. This patch attempts to fix
the backlog queue with a better design that should hold up better
under load and have less of a performance impact at syscall
invocation time.
While it looks like there is a log going on in this patch, the main
change is the move from a single backlog queue to three queues:
* A queue for holding records generated from audit_log_end() that
haven't been consumed by kauditd_thread() (audit_queue).
* A queue for holding records that have been sent via multicast but
had a temporary failure when sending via unicast and need a resend
(audit_retry_queue).
* A queue for holding records that haven't been sent via unicast
because no one is listening (audit_hold_queue).
Special care is taken in this patch to ensure that the proper
record ordering is preserved, e.g. we send everything in the hold
queue first, then the retry queue, and finally the main queue.

The audit queue names can be shortened and the record sending

Sending audit netlink multicast messages is bad for all the same
reasons that sending audit netlink unicast messages is bad, so this
patch reworks things so that we don't do the multicast send in
audit_log_end(), we do it from the dedicated kauditd_thread thread just

Richard made this change some time ago but Eric backed it out because
the rest of the supporting code wasn't ready. In order to move the
netlink multicast send to kauditd_thread we need to ensure the
kauditd_thread is always running, so restore commit 6ff5e459 ("audit:
move kaudit thread start from auditd registration to kaudit init").

Commit 4fd06960f120 ("Use the new x86 setup code for i386") introduced a
reference to the make variable LINUX_INCLUDE. That reference got moved
around a bit and copied twice and now there are three references to it.
There has never been a definition of that variable. (Presumably that is
because it started out as a mistyped reference to LINUXINCLUDE.) So this
reference has always been an empty string. Let's remove it before it

This reverts commit 6d31e3ba232ea22458b2f36b6d3f2f9f11bf3fa4.
This causes bootup problems for me both on my laptop and my desktop.
What they have in common is that they have NVMe disks with dm-crypt, but
it's not the same controller, so it's not controller-specific.
Jens does not see it on his machine (also NVMe), so it's presumably
something that triggers just on bootup. Possibly related to dm-crypt
and the fact that I mark my luks volume with "allow-discards" in
/etc/crypttab.
It's 100% repeatable for me, which made it fairly straightforward to
bisect the problem to this commit. Small mercies.
So we don't know what the reason is yet, but the revert is needed to get
things going again.

"One more patch from Adam added.
It makes libata skip probing for NCQ prio unless the feature is

* 'for-4.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/libata:
ata: avoid probing NCQ Prio Support if not explicitly requested
|
|
Previously, when the ata device was being initialized we were
probing for NCQ prio support by checking the identify information
and also checking the log page that holds information about ncq prio
support.
This caused an error on an Intel HBA so the code is now updated to
only probe for NCQ prio support when the sysfs variable controlling
NCQ prio support is enabled.
tj: Update formatting, switch to spin_[un]lock_irq() and update
locking a bit, use REVALIDATE instead of RESET, and return -EIO
instead of -EINVAL on config failure.

warn about the situation.
- Low level driver specific changes.
Christoph Hellwig pipes in about the hidden nvme warning:
"I wish that was the case. We've pretty much agreed that we'll want to
implement it as a virtual PCIe root bridge, similar to Intels other
'innovation' VMD that we work around that way.
But Intel management has apparently decided that they don't want to
spend more cycles on this now that Lenovo has an optional BIOS that
doesn't force this broken mode anymore, and no one outside of Intel
has enough information to implement something like this.
So for now I guess this warning is it, until Intel reconsideres and
spends resources on fixing up the damage their Chipset people caused"
