| * virtio-balloon: fix add/get API useMichael S. Tsirkin2012-07-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since ee7cd8981e15bcb365fc762afe3fc47b8242f630 'virtio: expose added descriptors immediately.', in virtio balloon virtqueue_get_buf might now run concurrently with virtqueue_kick. I audited both and this seems safe in practice but this is not guaranteed by the API. Additionally, a spurious interrupt might in theory make virtqueue_get_buf run in parallel with virtqueue_add_buf, which is racy. While we might try to protect against spurious callbacks it's easier to fix the driver: balloon seems to be the only one (mis)using the API like this, so let's just fix balloon.

| * | rpmsg: make sure inflight messages don't invoke just-removed callbacksOhad Ben-Cohen2012-07-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When inbound messages arrive, rpmsg core looks up their associated endpoint (by destination address) and then invokes their callback. We've made sure that endpoints will never be de-allocated after they were found by rpmsg core, but we also need to protect against the (rare) scenario where the rpmsg driver was just removed, and its callback function isn't available anymore. This is achieved by introducing a callback mutex, which must be taken before the callback is invoked, and, obviously, before it is removed.

If a message arrives while its endpoint is being removed (because the rpmsg driver was removed, or a recovery of a remote processor has kicked in) we must ensure atomicity, i.e.: - Either the ept is removed before it is found or - The ept is found but will not be freed until the callback returns This is achieved by maintaining a per-ept reference count, which, when drops to zero, will trigger deallocation of the ept. With this in hand, it is now forbidden to directly deallocate epts once they have been added to the endpoints idr.

Unfortunately, while the patch reduced the race window such that the test case I and Sasha were using didn't trigger it anymore, it wasn't complete - Shyju and Li could reliably trigger the race condition using a different test case. The problem wasn't the gap between dentry deletion and release which the previous patch tried to fix. The window was between the last dput() of a root's child and the resulting dput() of the root. For cgroup dentries, the deletion and release always happen synchronously. As this releases the s_active ref, the refcnt of the root dentry, which doesn't hold s_active, stays above zero without the corresponding s_active. If umount was in progress, the last deactivate_super() proceeds to destory the superblock and triggers BUG() on the non-zero root dentry refcnt after shrinking. This issue surfaced because cgroup dentries are now allowed to linger after rmdir(2) since 3.5-rc1. Before, rmdir synchronously drained the dentry refcnt and the s_active acquired by rmdir from vfs layer protected the whole thing. After 3.5-rc1, cgroup may internally hold and put dentry refs after rmdir finishes and the delayed dput() doesn't have surrounding s_active ref exposing this issue. This pull request contains two patches - one reverting the previous incorrect fix and the other adding the surrounding s_active ref around the delayed dput(). This is quite late in the release cycle but the change is on the safer side and fixes the test cases reliably, so I don't think it's too crazy." * 'for-3.5-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: cgroup: fix cgroup hierarchy umount race Revert "cgroup: superblock can't be released with active dentries"

As a css holds a reference on the cgroup's dentry, it means that cgroup dentries may linger for a while. Destroying a superblock which has dentries with positive refcnts is a critical bug and triggers BUG() in vfs code. As each cgroup dentry holds an s_active reference, any lingering cgroup has both its dentry and the superblock pinned and thus preventing premature release of superblock. Unfortunately, after 48ddbe1946, there's a small window while releasing a cgroup which is directly under the root of the hierarchy. When a cgroup directory is released, vfs layer first deletes the corresponding dentry and then invokes dput() on the parent, which may recurse further, so when a cgroup directly below root cgroup is released, the cgroup is first destroyed - which releases the s_active it was holding - and then the dentry for the root cgroup is dput(). This creates a window where the root dentry's refcnt isn't zero but superblock's s_active is. If umount happens before or during this window, vfs will see the root dentry with non-zero refcnt and trigger BUG(). Before 48ddbe1946, this problem didn't exist because the last dentry reference was guaranteed to be put synchronously from rmdir(2) invocation which holds s_active around the whole process. Fix it by holding an extra superblock->s_active reference across dput() from css release, which is the dput() path added by 48ddbe1946 and the only one which doesn't hold an extra s_active ref across the final cgroup dput().

Conflicts: arch/arm/kernel/ptrace.c The new syscall restarting code can lead to problems if we take an interrupt in userspace just before restarting the svc instruction. If a signal is delivered when returning from the interrupt, the TIF_SYSCALL_RESTARTSYS will remain set and cause any syscalls executed from the signal handler to be treated as a restart of the previously interrupted system call. This includes the final sigreturn call, meaning that we may fail to exit from the signal context. Furthermore, if a system call made from the signal handler requires a restart via the restart_block, it is possible to clear the thread flag and fail to restart the originally interrupted system call. The right solution to this problem is to perform the restarting in the kernel, avoiding the possibility of handling a further signal before the restart is complete. Since we're almost at -rc6, let's revert the new method for now and aim for in-kernel restarting at a later date.

This could happen with open files inherited after fork() or file descriptors passed through IPC mechanisms. Rather than calling BUG(), an error code can be safely returned in most situations. In ecryptfs_miscdev_release(), eCryptfs still needs to handle the release even if the last file reference is being held by a process that didn't originally open the file. ecryptfs_find_daemon_by_euid() will not be successful, so a pointer to the daemon is stored in the file's private_data. The private_data pointer is initialized when the miscdev file is opened and only used when the file is released. https://launchpad.net/bugs/994247 Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com> Reported-by: Sasha Levin <levinsasha928@gmail.com> Tested-by: Sasha Levin <levinsasha928@gmail.com>

However, the privileged retry should not happen if the lower file's inode is read-only because a read/write open will still be unsuccessful. The check for determining if the open should be retried was intended to be based on the access mode of the lower file's open flags being O_RDONLY, but the check was incorrectly performed. This would cause the open to be retried by the privileged kthread, resulting in a second failed open of the lower file. This patch corrects the check to determine if the open request should be handled by the privileged kthread.

Otherwise, 'mtd_read()' will falsely return -EUCLEAN. Normally, 'mtd->bitflip_threshold' is initialized when the MTD is added. However, this is too late for NAND MTDs, as 'scan_bbt()' is invoked prior the existing initialization of 'mtd->bitflip_threshold'. This is a problem since 'scan_bbt()' calls 'mtd_read()', in the case of a flash-based bad block table. It resulted in a falsely reported bitflips indication during BBT read, which lead to constant scrubbing of the flash BBT blocks. Initialize 'mtd->bitflip_threshold' to its default value (if not already set by the driver), prior to invocation of 'scan_bbt()'.

In commit a11f7e6 ocfs2: serialize unaligned aio, the unaligned io flag is involved in it to serialize the unaligned aio. As *private is not initialized in init_sync_kiocb() of do_sync_write(), this unaligned io flag may be unexpectly set in an aligned dio. And this will cause OCFS2_I(inode)->ip_unaligned_aio decreased to -1 in ocfs2_dio_end_io(), thus the following unaligned dio will hang forever at ocfs2_aiodio_wait() in ocfs2_file_aio_write().
