       "A few more fixes for ftrace infrastructure.
      
        I was cleaning out my INBOX and found two fixes from zhangwei from a
        year ago that were lost in my mail.  These fix an inconsistency
        between trace_puts() and the way trace_printk() works.  The reason
        this is important to fix is because when trace_printk() doesn't have
        any arguments, it turns into a trace_puts().  Not being able to enable
        a stack trace against trace_printk() because it does not have any
        arguments is quite confusing.  Also, the fix is rather trivial and low
        risk.
      
        While porting some changes to PowerPC I discovered that it still has
        the function graph tracer filter bug that if you also enable stack
        tracing the function graph tracer filter is ignored.  I fixed that up.
      
        Finally, Martin Lau, fixed a bug that would cause readers of the
        ftrace ring buffer to block forever even though it was suppose to be
        NONBLOCK"
      
      This also includes the fix from an earlier pull request:
      
       "Oleg Nesterov fixed a memory leak that happens if a user creates a
        tracing instance, sets up a filter in an event, and then removes that
        instance.  The filter allocates memory that is never freed when the

      tracing: Fix graph tracer with stack tracer on other archs · 5f8bf2d2
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 提交于
      Running my ftrace tests on PowerPC, it failed the test that checks
      if function_graph tracer is affected by the stack tracer. It was.
      Looking into this, I found that the update_function_graph_func()
      must be called even if the trampoline function is not changed.
      This is because archs like PowerPC do not support ftrace_ops being
      passed by assembly and instead uses a helper function (what the
      trampoline function points to). Since this function is not changed
      even when multiple ftrace_ops are added to the code, the test that
      falls out before calling update_function_graph_func() will miss that
      the update must still be done.
      
      Call update_function_graph_function() for all calls to
      update_ftrace_function()

      ALSA: hda - Fix broken PM due to incomplete i915 initialization · 4da63c6f
      Takashi Iwai 提交于
      When the initialization of Intel HDMI controller fails due to missing
      i915 kernel symbols (e.g. HD-audio is built in while i915 is module),
      the driver discontinues the probe.  However, since the probe was done
      asynchronously, the driver object still remains, thus the relevant PM
      ops are still called at suspend/resume. This results in the bad access
      to the incomplete audio card object, eventually leads to Oops or stall
      at PM.
      
      This patch adds the missing checks of chip->init_failed flag at each
      PM callback in order to fix the problem above.

         use tunnel->sk, but I wonder how useful that would be"

      net: ppp: don't call sk_chk_filter twice · 3916a319
      Christoph Schulz 提交于
      Commit 568f194e ("net: ppp: use
      sk_unattached_filter api") causes sk_chk_filter() to be called twice when
      setting a PPP pass or active filter. This applies to both the generic PPP
      subsystem implemented by drivers/net/ppp/ppp_generic.c and the ISDN PPP
      subsystem implemented by drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_ppp.c. The first call is from
      within get_filter(). The second one is through the call chain
      
        ppp_ioctl() or isdn_ppp_ioctl()
        --> sk_unattached_filter_create()
            --> __sk_prepare_filter()
                --> sk_chk_filter()
      
      The first call from within get_filter() should be deleted as get_filter() is
      called just before calling sk_unattached_filter_create() later on, which
      eventually calls sk_chk_filter() anyway.
      
      For 3.15.x, this proposed change is a bugfix rather than a pure optimization as
      in that branch, sk_chk_filter() may replace filter codes by other codes which
      are not recognized when executing sk_chk_filter() a second time. So with
      3.15.x, if sk_chk_filter() is called twice, the second invocation may yield
      EINVAL (this depends on the filter codes found in the filter to be set, but
      because the replacement is done for frequently used codes, this is almost
      always the case). The net effect is that setting pass and/or active PPP filters
      does not work anymore, since sk_unattached_filter_create() always returns
      EINVAL due to the second call to sk_chk_filter(), regardless whether the filter
      was originally sane or not.

      net: pppoe: use correct channel MTU when using Multilink PPP · a8a3e41c
      Christoph Schulz 提交于
      The PPP channel MTU is used with Multilink PPP when ppp_mp_explode() (see
      ppp_generic module) tries to determine how big a fragment might be. According
      to RFC 1661, the MTU excludes the 2-byte PPP protocol field, see the
      corresponding comment and code in ppp_mp_explode():
      
      		/*
      		 * hdrlen includes the 2-byte PPP protocol field, but the
      		 * MTU counts only the payload excluding the protocol field.
      		 * (RFC1661 Section 2)
      		 */
      		mtu = pch->chan->mtu - (hdrlen - 2);
      
      However, the pppoe module *does* include the PPP protocol field in the channel
      MTU, which is wrong as it causes the PPP payload to be 1-2 bytes too big under
      certain circumstances (one byte if PPP protocol compression is used, two
      otherwise), causing the generated Ethernet packets to be dropped. So the pppoe
      module has to subtract two bytes from the channel MTU. This error only
      manifests itself when using Multilink PPP, as otherwise the channel MTU is not
      used anywhere.
      
      In the following, I will describe how to reproduce this bug. We configure two
      pppd instances for multilink PPP over two PPPoE links, say eth2 and eth3, with
      a MTU of 1492 bytes for each link and a MRRU of 2976 bytes. (This MRRU is
      computed by adding the two link MTUs and subtracting the MP header twice, which
      is 4 bytes long.) The necessary pppd statements on both sides are "multilink
      mtu 1492 mru 1492 mrru 2976". On the client side, we additionally need "plugin
      rp-pppoe.so eth2" and "plugin rp-pppoe.so eth3", respectively; on the server
      side, we additionally need to start two pppoe-server instances to be able to
      establish two PPPoE sessions, one over eth2 and one over eth3. We set the MTU
      of the PPP network interface to the MRRU (2976) on both sides of the connection
      in order to make use of the higher bandwidth. (If we didn't do that, IP
      fragmentation would kick in, which we want to avoid.)
      
      Now we send a ICMPv4 echo request with a payload of 2948 bytes from client to
      server over the PPP link. This results in the following network packet:
      
         2948 (echo payload)
       +    8 (ICMPv4 header)
       +   20 (IPv4 header)
      ---------------------
         2976 (PPP payload)
      
      These 2976 bytes do not exceed the MTU of the PPP network interface, so the
      IP packet is not fragmented. Now the multilink PPP code in ppp_mp_explode()
      prepends one protocol byte (0x21 for IPv4), making the packet one byte bigger
      than the negotiated MRRU. So this packet would have to be divided in three
      fragments. But this does not happen as each link MTU is assumed to be two bytes
      larger. So this packet is diveded into two fragments only, one of size 1489 and
      one of size 1488. Now we have for that bigger fragment:
      
         1489 (PPP payload)
       +    4 (MP header)
       +    2 (PPP protocol field for the MP payload (0x3d))
       +    6 (PPPoE header)
      --------------------------
         1501 (Ethernet payload)
      
      This packet exceeds the link MTU and is discarded.
      
      If one configures the link MTU on the client side to 1501, one can see the
      discarded Ethernet frames with tcpdump running on the client. A
      
      ping -s 2948 -c 1 192.168.15.254
      
      leads to the smaller fragment that is correctly received on the server side:
      
      (tcpdump -vvvne -i eth3 pppoes and ppp proto 0x3d)
      52:54:00:ad:87:fd > 52:54:00:79:5c:d0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
        length 1514: PPPoE  [ses 0x3] MLPPP (0x003d), length 1494: seq 0x000,
        Flags [end], length 1492
      
      and to the bigger fragment that is not received on the server side:
      
      (tcpdump -vvvne -i eth2 pppoes and ppp proto 0x3d)
      52:54:00:70:9e:89 > 52:54:00:5d:6f:b0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
        length 1515: PPPoE  [ses 0x5] MLPPP (0x003d), length 1495: seq 0x000,
        Flags [begin], length 1493
      
      With the patch below, we correctly obtain three fragments:
      
      52:54:00:ad:87:fd > 52:54:00:79:5c:d0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),

        Flags [begin], length 1492
      52:54:00:70:9e:89 > 52:54:00:5d:6f:b0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
        length 1514: PPPoE  [ses 0x1] MLPPP (0x003d), length 1494: seq 0x000,
        Flags [none], length 1492
      52:54:00:ad:87:fd > 52:54:00:79:5c:d0, ethertype PPPoE S (0x8864),
        length 27: PPPoE  [ses 0x1] MLPPP (0x003d), length 7: seq 0x000,
        Flags [end], length 5
      
      And the ICMPv4 echo request is successfully received at the server side:
      
      IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 21925, offset 0, flags [DF], proto ICMP (1),
        length 2976)
          192.168.222.2 > 192.168.15.254: ICMP echo request, id 30530, seq 0,
            length 2956
      
      The bug was introduced in commit c9aa6895
      ("[PPPOE]: Advertise PPPoE MTU") from the very beginning. This patch applies
      to 3.10 upwards but the fix can be applied (with minor modifications) to
      kernels as old as 2.6.32.

      neigh: sysctl - simplify address calculation of gc_* variables · 9ecf07a1
      Mathias Krause 提交于
      The code in neigh_sysctl_register() relies on a specific layout of
      struct neigh_table, namely that the 'gc_*' variables are directly
      following the 'parms' member in a specific order. The code, though,
      expresses this in the most ugly way.
      
      Get rid of the ugly casts and use the 'tbl' pointer to get a handle to
      the table. This way we can refer to the 'gc_*' variables directly.

      xfs: null unused quota inodes when quota is on · 03e01349
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      When quota is on, it is expected that unused quota inodes have a
      value of NULLFSINO. The changes to support a separate project quota
      in 3.12 broken this rule for non-project quota inode enabled
      filesystem, as the code now refuses to write the group quota inode
      if neither group or project quotas are enabled. This regression was
      introduced by commit d892d586 ("xfs: Start using pquotaino from the
      superblock").
      
      In this case, we should be writing NULLFSINO rather than nothing to
      ensure that we leave the group quota inode in a valid state while
      quotas are enabled.
      
      Failure to do so doesn't cause a current kernel to break - the
      separate project quota inodes introduced translation code to always
      treat a zero inode as NULLFSINO. This was introduced by commit
      01026297 ("xfs: Initialize all quota inodes to be NULLFSINO") with is
      also in 3.12 but older kernels do not do this and hence taking a
      filesystem back to an older kernel can result in quotas failing
      initialisation at mount time. When that happens, we see this in
      dmesg:
      
      [ 1649.215390] XFS (sdb): Mounting Filesystem
      [ 1649.316894] XFS (sdb): Failed to initialize disk quotas.
      [ 1649.316902] XFS (sdb): Ending clean mount
      
      By ensuring that we write NULLFSINO to quota inodes that aren't
      active, we avoid this problem. We have to be really careful when
      determining if the quota inodes are active or not, because we don't
      want to write a NULLFSINO if the quota inodes are active and we
      simply aren't updating them.

      net: sctp: fix information leaks in ulpevent layer · 8f2e5ae4
      Daniel Borkmann 提交于
      While working on some other SCTP code, I noticed that some
      structures shared with user space are leaking uninitialized
      stack or heap buffer. In particular, struct sctp_sndrcvinfo
      has a 2 bytes hole between .sinfo_flags and .sinfo_ppid that
      remains unfilled by us in sctp_ulpevent_read_sndrcvinfo() when
      putting this into cmsg. But also struct sctp_remote_error
      contains a 2 bytes hole that we don't fill but place into a skb
      through skb_copy_expand() via sctp_ulpevent_make_remote_error().
      
      Both structures are defined by the IETF in RFC6458:
      
      * Section 5.3.2. SCTP Header Information Structure:
      
        The sctp_sndrcvinfo structure is defined below:
      
        struct sctp_sndrcvinfo {
          uint16_t sinfo_stream;
          uint16_t sinfo_ssn;
          uint16_t sinfo_flags;
          <-- 2 bytes hole  -->
          uint32_t sinfo_ppid;
          uint32_t sinfo_context;
          uint32_t sinfo_timetolive;
          uint32_t sinfo_tsn;
          uint32_t sinfo_cumtsn;
          sctp_assoc_t sinfo_assoc_id;
        };
      
      * 6.1.3. SCTP_REMOTE_ERROR:
      
        A remote peer may send an Operation Error message to its peer.
        This message indicates a variety of error conditions on an
        association. The entire ERROR chunk as it appears on the wire
        is included in an SCTP_REMOTE_ERROR event. Please refer to the
        SCTP specification [RFC4960] and any extensions for a list of
        possible error formats. An SCTP error notification has the
        following format:
      
        struct sctp_remote_error {
          uint16_t sre_type;
          uint16_t sre_flags;
          uint32_t sre_length;
          uint16_t sre_error;
          <-- 2 bytes hole  -->
          sctp_assoc_t sre_assoc_id;
          uint8_t  sre_data[];
        };
      
      Fix this by setting both to 0 before filling them out. We also
      have other structures shared between user and kernel space in
      SCTP that contains holes (e.g. struct sctp_paddrthlds), but we
      copy that buffer over from user space first and thus don't need
      to care about it in that cases.
      
      While at it, we can also remove lengthy comments copied from
      the draft, instead, we update the comment with the correct RFC
      number where one can look it up.

      xfs: refine the allocation stack switch · cf11da9c
      Dave Chinner 提交于
      The allocation stack switch at xfs_bmapi_allocate() has served it's
      purpose, but is no longer a sufficient solution to the stack usage
      problem we have in the XFS allocation path.
      
      Whilst the kernel stack size is now 16k, that is not a valid reason
      for undoing all our "keep stack usage down" modifications. What it
      does allow us to do is have the freedom to refine and perfect the
      modifications knowing that if we get it wrong it won't blow up in
      our faces - we have a safety net now.
      
      This is important because we still have the issue of older kernels
      having smaller stacks and that they are still supported and are
      demonstrating a wide range of different stack overflows.  Red Hat
      has several open bugs for allocation based stack overflows from
      directory modifications and direct IO block allocation and these
      problems still need to be solved. If we can solve them upstream,
      then distro's won't need to bake their own unique solutions.
      
      To that end, I've observed that every allocation based stack
      overflow report has had a specific characteristic - it has happened
      during or directly after a bmap btree block split. That event
      requires a new block to be allocated to the tree, and so we
      effectively stack one allocation stack on top of another, and that's
      when we get into trouble.
      
      A further observation is that bmap btree block splits are much rarer
      than writeback allocation - over a range of different workloads I've
      observed the ratio of bmap btree inserts to splits ranges from 100:1
      (xfstests run) to 10000:1 (local VM image server with sparse files
      that range in the hundreds of thousands to millions of extents).
      Either way, bmap btree split events are much, much rarer than
      allocation events.
      
      Finally, we have to move the kswapd state to the allocation workqueue
      work when allocation is done on behalf of kswapd. This is proving to
      cause significant perturbation in performance under memory pressure
      and appears to be generating allocation deadlock warnings under some
      workloads, so avoiding the use of a workqueue for the majority of
      kswapd writeback allocation will minimise the impact of such
      behaviour.
      
      Hence it makes sense to move the stack switch to xfs_btree_split()
      and only do it for bmap btree splits. Stack switches during
      allocation will be much rarer, so there won't be significant
      performacne overhead caused by switching stacks. The worse case
      stack from all allocation paths will be split, not just writeback.
      And the majority of memory allocations will be done in the correct
      context (e.g. kswapd) without causing additional latency, and so we
      simplify the memory reclaim interactions between processes,
      workqueues and kswapd.
      
      The worst stack I've been able to generate with this patch in place
      is 5600 bytes deep. It's very revealing because we exit XFS at:
      
      37)     1768      64   kmem_cache_alloc+0x13b/0x170
      
      about 1800 bytes of stack consumed, and the remaining 3800 bytes
      (and 36 functions) is memory reclaim, swap and the IO stack. And
      this occurs in the inode allocation from an open(O_CREAT) syscall,
      not writeback.
      
      The amount of stack being used is much less than I've previously be
      able to generate - fs_mark testing has been able to generate stack
      usage of around 7k without too much trouble; with this patch it's
      only just getting to 5.5k. This is primarily because the metadata
      allocation paths (e.g. directory blocks) are no longer causing
      double splits on the same stack, and hence now stack tracing is
      showing swapping being the worst stack consumer rather than XFS.
      
      Performance of fs_mark inode create workloads is unchanged.
      Performance of fs_mark async fsync workloads is consistently good
      with context switches reduced by around 150,000/s (30%).
      Performance of dbench, streaming IO and postmark is unchanged.
      Allocation deadlock warnings have not been seen on the workloads
      that generated them since adding this patch.

      Dave Chinner 提交于
      This reverts commit 1f6d6482.
      
      This commit resulted in regressions in performance in low
      memory situations where kswapd was doing writeback of delayed
      allocation blocks. It resulted in significant parallelism of the
      kswapd work and with the special kswapd flags meant that hundreds of
      active allocation could dip into kswapd specific memory reserves and
      avoid being throttled. This cause a large amount of performance
      variation, as well as random OOM-killer invocations that didn't
      previously exist.

      have put_reqs_available() called from irq context.  While put_reqs_available()
      is per cpu, it did not protect itself from interrupts on the same CPU.  This
      lead to aio_complete() corrupting the available io requests count when run
      under a heavy O_DIRECT workloads as reported by Robert Elliott.  Fix this by
      disabling irq updates around the per cpu batch updates of reqs_available.
