[PATCH 4.4 01/16] powerpc/eeh: Fix deadlock when PE frozen state cant be cleared

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andrew Donnellan <andrew.donnellan@au1.ibm.com>

commit 409bf7f8a02ef88db5a0f2cdcf9489914f4b8508 upstream.

In eeh_reset_device(), we take the pci_rescan_remove_lock immediately after
after we call eeh_reset_pe() to reset the PCI controller. We then call
eeh_clear_pe_frozen_state(), which can return an error. In this case, we
bail out of eeh_reset_device() without calling pci_unlock_rescan_remove().

Add a call to pci_unlock_rescan_remove() in the eeh_clear_pe_frozen_state()
error path so that we don't cause a deadlock later on.

[PATCH 4.4 02/16] parisc: Purge TLB before setting PTE

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: John David Anglin <dave.anglin@bell.net>

commit c78e710c1c9fbeff43dddc0aa3d0ff458e70b0cc upstream.

The attached change interchanges the order of purging the TLB and
setting the corresponding page table entry.  TLB purges are strongly
ordered.  It occurred to me one night that setting the PTE first might
have subtle ordering issues on SMP machines and cause random memory
corruption.

A TLB lock guards the insertion of user TLB entries.  So after the TLB
is purged, a new entry can't be inserted until the lock is released.
This ensures that the new PTE value is used when the lock is released.

Since making this change, no random segmentation faults have been
observed on the Debian hppa buildd servers.

[PATCH 4.4 03/16] parisc: Remove unnecessary TLB purges from flush_dcache_page_asm and flush_icache_page_asm

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: John David Anglin <dave.anglin@bell.net>

commit febe42964fe182281859b3d43d844bb25ca49367 upstream.

We have four routines in pacache.S that use temporary alias pages:
copy_user_page_asm(), clear_user_page_asm(), flush_dcache_page_asm() and
flush_icache_page_asm().  copy_user_page_asm() and clear_user_page_asm()
don't purge the TLB entry used for the operation.
flush_dcache_page_asm() and flush_icache_page_asm do purge the entry.

Presumably, this was thought to optimize TLB use.  However, the
operation is quite heavy weight on PA 1.X processors as we need to take
the TLB lock and a TLB broadcast is sent to all processors.

This patch removes the purges from flush_dcache_page_asm() and
flush_icache_page_asm.

[PATCH 4.4 04/16] parisc: Fix TLB related boot crash on SMP machines

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

commit 24d0492b7d5d321a9c5846c8c974eba9823ffaa0 upstream.

At bootup we run measurements to calculate the best threshold for when we
should be using full TLB flushes instead of just flushing a specific amount of
TLB entries.  This performance test is run over the kernel text segment.

But running this TLB performance test on the kernel text segment turned out to
crash some SMP machines when the kernel text pages were mapped as huge pages.

To avoid those crashes this patch simply skips this test on some SMP machines
and calculates an optimal threshold based on the maximum number of available
TLB entries and number of online CPUs.

On a technical side, this seems to happen:
The TLB measurement code uses flush_tlb_kernel_range() to flush specific TLB
entries with a page size of 4k (pdtlb 0(sr1,addr)). On UP systems this purge
instruction seems to work without problems even if the pages were mapped as
huge pages.  But on SMP systems the TLB purge instruction is broadcasted to
other CPUs. Those CPUs then crash the machine because the page size is not as
expected.  C8000 machines with PA8800/PA8900 CPUs were not affected by this
problem, because the required cache coherency prohibits to use huge pages at
all.  Sadly I didn't found any documentation about this behaviour, so this
finding is purely based on testing with phyiscal SMP machines (A500-44 and
J5000, both were 2-way boxes).

[PATCH 4.4 05/16] zram: restrict add/remove attributes to root only

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>

commit 5c7e9ccd91b90d87029261f8856294ee51934cab upstream.

zram hot_add sysfs attribute is a very 'special' attribute - reading
from it creates a new uninitialized zram device.  This file, by a
mistake, can be read by a 'normal' user at the moment, while only root
must be able to create a new zram device, therefore hot_add attribute
must have S_IRUSR mode, not S_IRUGO.

[PATCH 4.4 06/16] locking/rtmutex: Prevent dequeue vs. unlock race

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

commit dbb26055defd03d59f678cb5f2c992abe05b064a upstream.

David reported a futex/rtmutex state corruption. It's caused by the
following problem:

CPU0		CPU1		CPU2

l->owner=T1
		rt_mutex_lock(l)
		lock(l->wait_lock)
		l->owner = T1 | HAS_WAITERS;
		enqueue(T2)
		boost()
		  unlock(l->wait_lock)
		schedule()

				rt_mutex_lock(l)
				lock(l->wait_lock)
				l->owner = T1 | HAS_WAITERS;
				enqueue(T3)
				boost()
				  unlock(l->wait_lock)
				schedule()
		signal(->T2)	signal(->T3)
		lock(l->wait_lock)
		dequeue(T2)
		deboost()
		  unlock(l->wait_lock)
				lock(l->wait_lock)
				dequeue(T3)
				  ===> wait list is now empty
				deboost()
				 unlock(l->wait_lock)
		lock(l->wait_lock)
		fixup_rt_mutex_waiters()
		  if (wait_list_empty(l)) {
		    owner = l->owner & ~HAS_WAITERS;
		    l->owner = owner
		     ==> l->owner = T1
		  }

				lock(l->wait_lock)
rt_mutex_unlock(l)		fixup_rt_mutex_waiters()
				  if (wait_list_empty(l)) {
				    owner = l->owner & ~HAS_WAITERS;
cmpxchg(l->owner, T1, NULL)
 ===> Success (l->owner = NULL)
				    l->owner = owner
				     ==> l->owner = T1
				  }

That means the problem is caused by fixup_rt_mutex_waiters() which does the
RMW to clear the waiters bit unconditionally when there are no waiters in
the rtmutexes rbtree.

This can be fatal: A concurrent unlock can release the rtmutex in the
fastpath because the waiters bit is not set. If the cmpxchg() gets in the
middle of the RMW operation then the previous owner, which just unlocked
the rtmutex is set as the owner again when the write takes place after the
successfull cmpxchg().

The solution is rather trivial: verify that the owner member of the rtmutex
has the waiters bit set before clearing it. This does not require a
cmpxchg() or other atomic operations because the waiters bit can only be
set and cleared with the rtmutex wait_lock held. It's also safe against the
fast path unlock attempt. The unlock attempt via cmpxchg() will either see
the bit set and take the slowpath or see the bit cleared and release it
atomically in the fastpath.

It's remarkable that the test program provided by David triggers on ARM64
and MIPS64 really quick, but it refuses to reproduce on x86-64, while the
problem exists there as well. That refusal might explain that this got not
discovered earlier despite the bug existing from day one of the rtmutex
implementation more than 10 years ago.

Thanks to David for meticulously instrumenting the code and providing the
information which allowed to decode this subtle problem.

[PATCH 4.4 07/16] locking/rtmutex: Use READ_ONCE() in rt_mutex_owner()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

commit 1be5d4fa0af34fb7bafa205aeb59f5c7cc7a089d upstream.

While debugging the rtmutex unlock vs. dequeue race Will suggested to use
READ_ONCE() in rt_mutex_owner() as it might race against the
cmpxchg_release() in unlock_rt_mutex_safe().

Will: "It's a minor thing which will most likely not matter in practice"

Careful search did not unearth an actual problem in todays code, but it's
better to be safe than surprised.

[PATCH 4.4 08/16] perf/x86: Fix full width counter, counter overflow

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org>

commit 7f612a7f0bc13a2361a152862435b7941156b6af upstream.

Lukasz reported that perf stat counters overflow handling is broken on KNL/SLM.

Both these parts have full_width_write set, and that does indeed have
a problem. In order to deal with counter wrap, we must sample the
counter at at least half the counter period (see also the sampling
theorem) such that we can unambiguously reconstruct the count.

However commit:

  069e0c3c4058 ("perf/x86/intel: Support full width counting")

sets the sampling interval to the full period, not half.

Fixing that exposes another issue, in that we must not sign extend the
delta value when we shift it right; the counter cannot have
decremented after all.

With both these issues fixed, counter overflow functions correctly
again.

[PATCH 4.4 09/16] crypto: mcryptd - Check mcryptd algorithm compatibility

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: tim <tim.c.chen@linux.intel.com>

commit 48a992727d82cb7db076fa15d372178743b1f4cd upstream.

Algorithms not compatible with mcryptd could be spawned by mcryptd
with a direct crypto_alloc_tfm invocation using a "mcryptd(alg)" name
construct.  This causes mcryptd to crash the kernel if an arbitrary
"alg" is incompatible and not intended to be used with mcryptd.  It is
an issue if AF_ALG tries to spawn mcryptd(alg) to expose it externally.
But such algorithms must be used internally and not be exposed.

We added a check to enforce that only internal algorithms are allowed
with mcryptd at the time mcryptd is spawning an algorithm.

[PATCH 4.4 13/16] m68k: Fix ndelay() macro

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Boris Brezillon <boris.brezillon@free-electrons.com>

commit 7e251bb21ae08ca2e4fb28cc0981fac2685a8efa upstream.

The current ndelay() macro definition has an extra semi-colon at the
end of the line thus leading to a compilation error when ndelay is used
in a conditional block without curly braces like this one:

	if (cond)
		ndelay(t);
	else
		...

which, after the preprocessor pass gives:

	if (cond)
		m68k_ndelay(t);;
	else
		...

thus leading to the following gcc error:

	error: 'else' without a previous 'if'

Remove this extra semi-colon.

[PATCH 4.4 15/16] hotplug: Make register and unregister notifier API symmetric

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com>

commit 777c6e0daebb3fcefbbd6f620410a946b07ef6d0 upstream.

Yu Zhao has noticed that __unregister_cpu_notifier only unregisters its
notifiers when HOTPLUG_CPU=y while the registration might succeed even
when HOTPLUG_CPU=n if MODULE is enabled. This means that e.g. zswap
might keep a stale notifier on the list on the manual clean up during
the pool tear down and thus corrupt the list. Resulting in the following

It seems that something in your scripts munged the apostrophe in the 
summary line when generating these emails. Though it looks fine in the 
actual tree.

Odd, the original patch has the subject right, so git will do it
correctly when it commits the patch.  But, something dropped the '
