2015-08-07kthread: export kthread functionsDavid Kershner
The s-Par visornic driver, currently in staging, processes a queue being serviced by the an s-Par service partition. We can get a message that something has happened with the Service Partition, when that happens, we must not access the channel until we get a message that the service partition is back again. The visornic driver has a thread for processing the channel, when we get the message, we need to be able to park the thread and then resume it when the problem clears. We can do this with kthread_park and unpark but they are not exported from the kernel, this patch exports the needed functions.

2015-08-07signal: fix information leak in copy_siginfo_to_userAmanieu d'Antras
This function may copy the si_addr_lsb, si_lower and si_upper fields to user mode when they haven't been initialized, which can leak kernel stack data to user mode. Just checking the value of si_code is insufficient because the same si_code value is shared between multiple signals. This is solved by checking the value of si_signo in addition to si_code.

2015-08-07signal: fix information leak in copy_siginfo_from_user32Amanieu d'Antras
This function can leak kernel stack data when the user siginfo_t has a positive si_code value. The top 16 bits of si_code descibe which fields in the siginfo_t union are active, but they are treated inconsistently between copy_siginfo_from_user32, copy_siginfo_to_user32 and copy_siginfo_to_user. copy_siginfo_from_user32 is called from rt_sigqueueinfo and rt_tgsigqueueinfo in which the user has full control overthe top 16 bits of si_code. This fixes the following information leaks: x86: 8 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to itself. This leak grows to 16 bytes if the process uses x32. (si_code = __SI_CHLD) x86: 100 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to a 64-bit process. (si_code = -1) sparc: 4 bytes leaked when sending a signal from a 32-bit process to a 64-bit process. (si_code = any) parsic and s390 have similar bugs, but they are not vulnerable because rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo have checks that prevent sending a positive si_code to a different process. These bugs are also fixed for consistency.

2015-08-04perf: Fix fasync handling on inherited eventsPeter Zijlstra
Vince reported that the fasync signal stuff doesn't work proper for inherited events. So fix that. Installing fasync allocates memory and sets filp->f_flags |= FASYNC, which upon the demise of the file descriptor ensures the allocation is freed and state is updated. Now for perf, we can have the events stick around for a while after the original FD is dead because of references from child events. So we cannot copy the fasync pointer around. We can however consistently use the parent's fasync, as that will be updated.

We don't actually hold the module_mutex when calling find_module_all from module_kallsyms_lookup_name: that's because it's used by the oops code and we don't want to deadlock. However, access to the list read-only is safe if preempt is disabled, so we can weaken the assertion. Keep a strong version for external callers though.

2015-07-22mm: Fix bugs in region_is_ram()Toshi Kani
region_is_ram() looks up the iomem_resource table to check if a target range is in RAM. However, it always returns with -1 due to invalid range checks. It always breaks the loop at the first entry of the table. Another issue is that it compares p->flags and flags, but it always fails. flags is declared as int, which makes it as a negative value with IORESOURCE_BUSY (0x80000000) set while p->flags is unsigned long. Fix the range check and flags so that region_is_ram() works as advertised.

Enabling locking-selftest in a VM guest may cause the following kernel panic: kernel BUG at .../kernel/locking/qspinlock_paravirt.h:137! This is due to the fact that the pvqspinlock unlock function is expecting either a _Q_LOCKED_VAL or _Q_SLOW_VAL in the lock byte. This patch prevents that bug report by ignoring it when debug_locks_silent is set. Otherwise, a warning will be printed if it contains an unexpected value.

2015-07-18x86/fpu, sched: Dynamically allocate 'struct fpu'Dave Hansen
The FPU rewrite removed the dynamic allocations of 'struct fpu'. But, this potentially wastes massive amounts of memory (2k per task on systems that do not have AVX-512 for instance). Instead of having a separate slab, this patch just appends the space that we need to the 'task_struct' which we dynamically allocate already. This saves from doing an extra slab allocation at fork(). The only real downside here is that we have to stick everything and the end of the task_struct. But, I think the BUILD_BUG_ON()s I stuck in there should keep that from being too fragile.

So testing against 0 doesn't test for a fault condition, it tests against a perfectly valid empty string. Also fix up the usual braindamage wrt using WARN_ON() inside a conditional - make it part of the conditional and remove the explicit unlikely() (which is already part of the WARN_ON*() logic, exactly so that you don't have to write unreadable code.

2015-07-08tracing: Have branch tracer use recursive field of task structSteven Rostedt (Red Hat)
Fengguang Wu's tests triggered a bug in the branch tracer's start up test when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT set. This was because that config adds some debug logic in the per cpu field, which calls back into the branch tracer. The branch tracer has its own recursive checks, but uses a per cpu variable to implement it. If retrieving the per cpu variable calls back into the branch tracer, you can see how things will break. Instead of using a per cpu variable, use the trace_recursion field of the current task struct. Simply set a bit when entering the branch tracing and clear it when leaving. If the bit is set on entry, just don't do the tracing. There's also the case with lockdep, as the local_irq_save() called before the recursion can also trigger code that can call back into the function. Changing that to a raw_local_irq_save() will protect that as well. This prevents the recursion and the inevitable crash that follows.

2015-07-08hotplug: Prevent alloc/free of irq descriptors during cpu up/downThomas Gleixner
When a cpu goes up some architectures (e.g. x86) have to walk the irq space to set up the vector space for the cpu. While this needs extra protection at the architecture level we can avoid a few race conditions by preventing the concurrent allocation/free of irq descriptors and the associated data. When a cpu goes down it moves the interrupts which are targeted to this cpu away by reassigning the affinities. While this happens interrupts can be allocated and freed, which opens a can of race conditions in the code which reassignes the affinities because interrupt descriptors might be freed underneath. Example: CPU1 CPU2 cpu_up/down irq_desc = irq_to_desc(irq); remove_from_radix_tree(desc); raw_spin_lock(&desc->lock); free(desc); We could protect the irq descriptors with RCU, but that would require a full tree change of all accesses to interrupt descriptors. But fortunately these kind of race conditions are rather limited to a few things like cpu hotplug. The normal setup/teardown is very well serialized. So the simpler and obvious solution is: Prevent allocation and freeing of interrupt descriptors accross cpu hotplug.

2015-07-07tick/broadcast: Handle spurious interrupts gracefullyThomas Gleixner
Andriy reported that on a virtual machine the warning about negative expiry time in the clock events programming code triggered: hpet: hpet0 irq 40 for MSI hpet: hpet1 irq 41 for MSI Switching to clocksource hpet WARNING: at kernel/time/clockevents.c:239 [<ffffffff810ce6eb>] clockevents_program_event+0xdb/0xf0 [<ffffffff810cf211>] tick_handle_periodic_broadcast+0x41/0x50 [<ffffffff81016525>] timer_interrupt+0x15/0x20 When the second hpet is installed as a per cpu timer the broadcast event is not longer required and stopped, which sets the next_evt of the broadcast device to KTIME_MAX. If after that a spurious interrupt happens on the broadcast device, then the current code blindly handles it and tries to reprogram the broadcast device afterwards, which adds the period to next_evt. KTIME_MAX + period results in a negative expiry value causing the WARN_ON in the clockevents code to trigger. Add a proper check for the state of the broadcast device into the interrupt handler and return if the interrupt is spurious.

2015-07-07tick/broadcast: Make idle check independent from mode and configThomas Gleixner
Currently the broadcast busy check, which prevents the idle code from going into deep idle, works only in one shot mode. If NOHZ and HIGHRES are off (config or command line) there is no sanity check at all, so under certain conditions cpus are allowed to go into deep idle, where the local timer stops, and are not woken up again because there is no broadcast timer installed or a hrtimer based broadcast device is not evaluated. Move tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() into the common code and provide proper subfunctions for the various config combinations. The common check in tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() is for the C3STOP misfeature flag of the local clock event device. If its not set, idle can proceed. If set, further checks are necessary. Provide checks for the trivial cases: - If broadcast is disabled in the config, then return busy - If oneshot mode (NOHZ/HIGHES) is disabled in the config, return busy if the broadcast device is hrtimer based. - If oneshot mode is enabled in the config call the original tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() function. That function needs extra checks which will be implemented in seperate patches.

2015-07-07clockevents: Allow set-state callbacks to be optionalViresh Kumar
Its mandatory for the drivers to provide set_state_{oneshot|periodic}() (only if related modes are supported) and set_state_shutdown() callbacks today, if they are implementing the new set-state interface. But this leads to unnecessary noop callbacks for drivers which don't want to implement them. Over that, it will lead to a full function call for nothing really useful. Lets make all set-state callbacks optional.

Commit 44dba3d5d6a1 ("sched: Refactor task_struct to use numa_faults instead of numa_* pointers") modified the way tsk->numa_faults stats are accounted. However that commit never touched show_numa_stats() that is displayed in /proc/pid/sched and thus the numbers displayed in /proc/pid/sched don't match the actual numbers. Fix it by making sure that /proc/pid/sched reflects the task fault numbers. Also add group fault stats too. Also couple of more modifications are added here: 1. Format changes: - Previously we would list two entries per node, one for private and one for shared. Also the home node info was listed in each entry. - Now preferred node, total_faults and current node are displayed separately. - Now there is one entry per node, that lists private,shared task and group faults. 2. Unit changes: - p->numa_pages_migrated was getting reset after every read of /proc/pid/sched. It's more useful to have absolute numbers since differential migrations between two accesses can be more easily calculated.
