2013-06-12audit: wait_for_auditd() should use TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLEOleg Nesterov
audit_log_start() does wait_for_auditd() in a loop until audit_backlog_wait_time passes or audit_skb_queue has a room. If signal_pending() is true this becomes a busy-wait loop, schedule() in TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE won't block. Thanks to Guy for fully investigating and explaining the problem. (akpm: that'll cause the system to lock up on a non-preemptible uniprocessor kernel) (Guy: "Our customer was in fact running a uniprocessor machine, and they reported a system hang.")

2013-06-12kmsg: honor dmesg_restrict sysctl on /dev/kmsgKees Cook
The dmesg_restrict sysctl currently covers the syslog method for access dmesg, however /dev/kmsg isn't covered by the same protections. Most people haven't noticed because util-linux dmesg(1) defaults to using the syslog method for access in older versions. With util-linux dmesg(1) defaults to reading directly from /dev/kmsg. To fix /dev/kmsg, let's compare the existing interfaces and what they allow: - /proc/kmsg allows: - open (SYSLOG_ACTION_OPEN) if CAP_SYSLOG since it uses a destructive single-reader interface (SYSLOG_ACTION_READ). - everything, after an open. - syslog syscall allows: - anything, if CAP_SYSLOG. - SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALL and SYSLOG_ACTION_SIZE_BUFFER, if dmesg_restrict==0. - nothing else (EPERM). The use-cases were: - dmesg(1) needs to do non-destructive SYSLOG_ACTION_READ_ALLs. - sysklog(1) needs to open /proc/kmsg, drop privs, and still issue the destructive SYSLOG_ACTION_READs. AIUI, dmesg(1) is moving to /dev/kmsg, and systemd-journald doesn't clear the ring buffer. Based on the comments in devkmsg_llseek, it sounds like actions besides reading aren't going to be supported by /dev/kmsg (i.e. SYSLOG_ACTION_CLEAR), so we have a strict subset of the non-destructive syslog syscall actions. To this end, move the check as Josh had done, but also rename the constants to reflect their new uses (SYSLOG_FROM_CALL becomes SYSLOG_FROM_READER, and SYSLOG_FROM_FILE becomes SYSLOG_FROM_PROC). SYSLOG_FROM_READER allows non-destructive actions, and SYSLOG_FROM_PROC allows destructive actions after a capabilities-constrained SYSLOG_ACTION_OPEN check. - /dev/kmsg allows: - open if CAP_SYSLOG or dmesg_restrict==0 - reading/polling, after open Addresses https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=903192 [akpm@linux-foundation.org: use pr_warn_once()] Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Reported-by: Christian Kujau <lists@nerdbynature.de> Tested-by: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@redhat.com> Cc: Kay Sievers <kay@vrfy.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2013-06-12reboot: rigrate shutdown/reboot to boot cpuRobin Holt
We recently noticed that reboot of a 1024 cpu machine takes approx 16 minutes of just stopping the cpus. The slowdown was tracked to commit f96972f2dc63 ("kernel/sys.c: call disable_nonboot_cpus() in kernel_restart()"). The current implementation does all the work of hot removing the cpus before halting the system. We are switching to just migrating to the boot cpu and then continuing with shutdown/reboot. This also has the effect of not breaking x86's command line parameter for specifying the reboot cpu. Note, this code was shamelessly copied from arch/x86/kernel/reboot.c with bits removed pertaining to the reboot_cpu command line parameter.

There are instances in the kernel where we would like to disable CPU hotplug (from sysfs) during some important operation.

2013-06-11Fix lockup related to stop_machine being stuck in __do_softirq.Ben Greear
The stop machine logic can lock up if all but one of the migration threads make it through the disable-irq step and the one remaining thread gets stuck in __do_softirq. The reason __do_softirq can hang is that it has a bail-out based on jiffies timeout, but in the lockup case, jiffies itself is not incremented. To work around this, re-add the max_restart counter in __do_irq and stop processing irqs after 10 restarts. Thanks to Tejun Heo and Rusty Russell and others for helping me track this down. This was introduced in 3.9 by commit c10d73671ad3 ("softirq: reduce latencies"). It may be worth looking into ath9k to see if it has issues with its irq handler at a later date. The hang stack traces look something like this: ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at kernel/watchdog.c:245 watchdog_overflow_callback+0x9c/0xa7() Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 2 Modules linked in: ath9k ath9k_common ath9k_hw ath mac80211 cfg80211 nfsv4 auth_rpcgss nfs fscache nf_nat_ipv4 nf_nat veth 8021q garp stp mrp llc pktgen lockd sunrpc] Pid: 23, comm: migration/2 Tainted: G C 3.9.4+ #11 Call Trace: <NMI> warn_slowpath_common+0x85/0x9f warn_slowpath_fmt+0x46/0x48 watchdog_overflow_callback+0x9c/0xa7 __perf_event_overflow+0x137/0x1cb perf_event_overflow+0x14/0x16 intel_pmu_handle_irq+0x2dc/0x359 perf_event_nmi_handler+0x19/0x1b nmi_handle+0x7f/0xc2 do_nmi+0xbc/0x304 end_repeat_nmi+0x1e/0x2e <<EOE>> cpu_stopper_thread+0xae/0x162 smpboot_thread_fn+0x258/0x260 kthread+0xc7/0xcf ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 ---[ end trace 4947dfa9b0a4cec3 ]--- BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 22s!

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "This contains 4 fixes. The first two fix the case where full RCU debugging is enabled, enabling function tracing causes a live lock of the system. This is due to the added debug checks in rcu_dereference_raw() that is used by the function tracer. These checks are also traced by the function tracer as well as cause enough overhead to the function tracer to slow down the system enough that the time to finish an interrupt can take longer than when the next interrupt is triggered, causing a live lock from the timer interrupt. Talking this over with Paul McKenney, we came up with a fix that adds a new rcu_dereference_raw_notrace() that does not perform these added checks, and let the function tracer use that. The third commit fixes a failed compile when branch tracing is enabled, due to the conversion of the trace_test_buffer() selftest that the branch trace wasn't converted for. The forth patch fixes a bug caught by the RCU lockdep code where a rcu_read_lock() is performed when rcu is disabled (either going to or from idle, or user space). This happened on the irqsoff tracer as it calls task_uid(). The fix here was to use current_uid() when possible that doesn't use rcu locking. Which luckily, is always used when irqsoff calls this code." * tag 'trace-fixes-v3.10-rc3-v3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: tracing: Use current_uid() for critical time tracing tracing: Fix bad parameter passed in branch selftest ftrace: Use the rcu _notrace variants for rcu_dereference_raw() and friends rcu: Add _notrace variation of rcu_dereference_raw() and hlist_for_each_entry_rcu()
2013-06-06tracing: Use current_uid() for critical time tracingSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
The irqsoff tracer records the max time that interrupts are disabled. There are hooks in the assembly code that calls back into the tracer when interrupts are disabled or enabled. When they are enabled, the tracer checks if the amount of time they were disabled is larger than the previous recorded max interrupts off time. If it is, it creates a snapshot of the currently running trace to store where the last largest interrupts off time was held and how it happened.

The trace buffer was saved along with various information about the task: comm, pid, uid, priority, etc. The uid is recorded with task_uid(tsk). But this is a macro that uses rcu_read_lock() to retrieve the data, and this happened to happen where RCU is blind (user_enter). As only the preempt and irqs off tracers can have this happen, and they both only have the tsk == current, if tsk == current, use current_uid() instead of task_uid(), as current_uid() does not use RCU as only current can change its uid. This fixes the RCU suspicious splat. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

With the new __DEVEL__sane_behavior mount option was introduced, if the root cgroup is alive with no xattr function, to mount a new cgroup with xattr will be rejected in terms of design which just fine. However, if the root cgroup does not mounted with __DEVEL__sane_hehavior, to create a new cgroup with xattr option will succeed although after that the EA function does not works as expected but will get ENOTSUPP for setting up attributes under either cgroup. e.g. setfattr: /cgroup2/test: Operation not supported Instead of keeping silence in this case, it's better to drop a log entry in warning level. That would be helpful to understand the reason behind the scene from the user's perspective, and this is essentially an improvement does not break the backward compatibilities.

2013-05-28timekeeping: Correct run-time detection of persistent_clock.Zoran Markovic
Since commit 31ade30692dc9680bfc95700d794818fa3f754ac, timekeeping_init() checks for presence of persistent clock by attempting to read a non-zero time value. This is an issue on platforms where persistent_clock (instead is implemented as a free-running counter (instead of an RTC) starting from zero on each boot and running during suspend. Examples are some ARM platforms (e.g. PandaBoard). An attempt to read such a clock during timekeeping_init() may return zero value and falsely declare persistent clock as missing. Additionally, in the above case suspend times may be accounted twice (once from timekeeping_resume() and once from rtc_resume()), resulting in a gradual drift of system time. This patch does a run-time correction of the issue by doing the same check during timekeeping_suspend(). A better long-term solution would have to return error when trying to read non-existing clock and zero when trying to read an uninitialized clock, but that would require changing all persistent_clock implementations. This patch addresses the immediate breakage, for now.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "Two more fixes: The first one was reported by Mauro Carvalho Chehab, where if a poll() is done against a trace buffer for a CPU that has never been online, it will crash the kernel, as buffers are only created when a CPU comes on line, but the trace files are for all possible CPUs. This fix is to check if the buffer was allocated and if not return -EINVAL. That was the simple fix, the real fix is a bit more complex and not for a -rc release. We could have the files created when the CPUs come online. That would require some design changes. The second one was reported by Peter Zijlstra. If the kernel command line has ftrace=nop, it will lock up the system on boot up. This is because the new design for 3.10 has the nop tracer bootstrap the tracing subsystem.

What happened here was that ftrace=nop caused the registering of nop to start it and use nop before it was initialized.

2013-05-28ring-buffer: Do not poll non allocated cpu buffersSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
The tracing infrastructure sets up for possible CPUs, but it uses the ring buffer polling, it is possible to call the ring buffer polling code with a CPU that hasn't been allocated. This will cause a kernel oops when it access a ring buffer cpu buffer that is part of the possible cpus but hasn't been allocated yet as the CPU has never been online.

2013-05-28tick: Cure broadcast false positive pending bit warningThomas Gleixner
commit 26517f3e (tick: Avoid programming the local cpu timer if broadcast pending) added a warning if the cpu enters broadcast mode again while the pending bit is still set. Meelis reported that the warning triggers. There are two corner cases which have been not considered: 1) cpuidle calls clockevents_notify(CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ENTER) twice. That can result in the following scenario CPU0 CPU1 cpuidle_idle_call() clockevents_notify(CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ENTER) set cpu in tick_broadcast_oneshot_mask broadcast interrupt event expired for cpu1 set pending bit acpi_idle_enter_simple() clockevents_notify(CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ENTER) WARN_ON(pending bit) Move the WARN_ON into the section where we enter broadcast mode so it wont provide false positives on the second call. 2) safe_halt() enables interrupts, so a broadcast interrupt can be delivered befor the broadcast mode is disabled. That sets the pending bit for the CPU which receives the broadcast interrupt. Though the interrupt is delivered right away from the broadcast handler and leaves the pending bit stale. Clear the pending bit for the current cpu in the broadcast handler.

2013-05-24cgroup: fix a subtle bug in descendant pre-order walkTejun Heo
When cgroup_next_descendant_pre() initiates a walk, it checks whether the subtree root doesn't have any children and if not returns NULL. Later code assumes that the subtree isn't empty. This is broken because the subtree may become empty inbetween, which can lead to the traversal escaping the subtree by walking to the sibling of the subtree root. There's no reason to have the early exit path. Remove it along with the later assumption that the subtree isn't empty. This simplifies the code a bit and fixes the subtle bug. While at it, fix the comment of cgroup_for_each_descendant_pre() which was incorrectly referring to ->css_offline() instead of ->css_online().

2013-05-23tracing: Fix crash when ftrace=nop on the kernel command lineSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
If ftrace=<tracer> is on the kernel command line, when that tracer is registered, it will be initiated by tracing_set_tracer() to execute that tracer. The nop tracer is just a stub tracer that is used to have no tracer enabled. It is assigned at early bootup as it is the default tracer. But if ftrace=nop is on the kernel command line, the registering of the nop tracer will call tracing_set_tracer() which will try to execute the nop tracer. But it expects tr->current_trace to be assigned something as it usually is assigned to the nop tracer. As it hasn't been assigned to anything yet, it causes the system to crash. The simple fix is to move the tr->current_trace = nop before registering the nop tracer. The functionality is still the same as the nop tracer doesn't do anything anyway.

Since try_module_get() returns false( = 0) when it fails to pindown a module, event_enable_func() returns 0 which means "succeed". This can cause a kernel panic when the entry is removed, because the event is already released. This fixes the bug by returning -EBUSY, because the reason why it fails is that the module is being removed at that time.

2013-05-14time: Revert ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK compile time optimizaitonsJohn Stultz
Kay Sievers noted that the ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK config, which enables some minor compile time optimization to avoid uncessary code in mostly the suspend/resume path could cause problems for userland. In particular, the dependency for RTC_HCTOSYS on !ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK, which avoids setting the time twice and simplifies suspend/resume, has the side effect of causing the /sys/class/rtc/rtcN/hctosys flag to always be zero, and this flag is commonly used by udev to setup the /dev/rtc symlink to /dev/rtcN, which can cause pain for older applications. While the udev rules could use some work to be less fragile, breaking userland should strongly be avoided. Additionally the compile time optimizations are fairly minor, and the code being optimized is likely to be reworked in the future, so lets revert this change.

2013-05-14workqueue: Make schedule_work() available again to non GPL modulesMarc Dionne
Commit 8425e3d5bdbe ("workqueue: inline trivial wrappers") changed schedule_work() and schedule_delayed_work() to inline wrappers, but these rely on some symbols that are EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL, while the original functions were EXPORT_SYMBOL. This has the effect of changing the licensing requirement for these functions and making them unavailable to non GPL modules. Make them available again by removing the restriction on the required symbols. Signed-off-by: Marc Dionne <marc.dionne@your-file-system.com> Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>
2013-05-14workqueue: correct handling of the pool spin_lockJoonsoo Kim
When we fail to mutex_trylock(), we release the pool spin_lock and do mutex_lock(). After that, we should regrab the pool spin_lock, but, regrabbing is missed in current code. So correct it.

2013-05-14rcu: Fix comparison sense in rcu_needs_cpu()Paul E. McKenney
Commit c0f4dfd4f (rcu: Make RCU_FAST_NO_HZ take advantage of numbered callbacks) introduced a bug that can result in excessively long grace periods. This bug reverse the senes of the "if" statement checking for lazy callbacks, so that RCU takes a lazy approach when there are in fact non-lazy callbacks. This can result in excessive boot, suspend, and resume times. This commit therefore fixes the sense of this "if" statement.
