      kvm: arm64: vgic: fix hyp panic with 64k pages on juno platform · 63afbe7a
      Will Deacon 提交于
      If the physical address of GICV isn't page-aligned, then we end up
      creating a stage-2 mapping of the page containing it, which causes us to
      map neighbouring memory locations directly into the guest.
      
      As an example, consider a platform with GICV at physical 0x2c02f000
      running a 64k-page host kernel. If qemu maps this into the guest at
      0x80010000, then guest physical addresses 0x80010000 - 0x8001efff will
      map host physical region 0x2c020000 - 0x2c02efff. Accesses to these
      physical regions may cause UNPREDICTABLE behaviour, for example, on the
      Juno platform this will cause an SError exception to EL3, which brings
      down the entire physical CPU resulting in RCU stalls / HYP panics / host
      crashing / wasted weeks of debugging.
      
      SBSA recommends that systems alias the 4k GICV across the bounding 64k
      region, in which case GICV physical could be described as 0x2c020000 in
      the above scenario.
      
      This patch fixes the problem by failing the vgic probe if the physical
      base address or the size of GICV aren't page-aligned. Note that this
      generated a warning in dmesg about freeing enabled IRQs, so I had to
      move the IRQ enabling later in the probe.

      net: phy: re-apply PHY fixups during phy_register_device · d92f5dec
      Florian Fainelli 提交于
      Commit 87aa9f9c ("net: phy: consolidate PHY reset in phy_init_hw()")
      moved the call to phy_scan_fixups() in phy_init_hw() after a software
      reset is performed.
      
      By the time phy_init_hw() is called in phy_device_register(), no driver
      has been bound to this PHY yet, so all the checks in phy_init_hw()
      against the PHY driver and the PHY driver's config_init function will
      return 0. We will therefore never call phy_scan_fixups() as we should.
      
      Fix this by calling phy_scan_fixups() and check for its return value to
      restore the intended functionality.
      
      This broke PHY drivers which do register an early PHY fixup callback to
      intercept the PHY probing and do things like changing the 32-bits unique
      PHY identifier when a pseudo-PHY address has been used, as well as
      board-specific PHY fixups that need to be applied during driver probe
      time.

      This reports means that we've come to netlink_sendmsg() with msg->msg_name == NULL and msg->msg_namelen > 0.
      
      After this report there was no usual "Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference"
      and this gave me a clue that address 0 is mapped and contains valid socket address structure in it.
      
      This bug was introduced in f3d33426
      (net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logic).
      Commit message states that:
      	"Set msg->msg_name = NULL if user specified a NULL in msg_name but had a
      	 non-null msg_namelen in verify_iovec/verify_compat_iovec. This doesn't
      	 affect sendto as it would bail out earlier while trying to copy-in the
      	 address."
      But in fact this affects sendto when address 0 is mapped and contains
      socket address structure in it. In such case copy-in address will succeed,
      verify_iovec() function will successfully exit with msg->msg_namelen > 0
      and msg->msg_name == NULL.
      
      This patch fixes it by setting msg_namelen to 0 if msg_name == NULL.

      Commit 9188883f (ARM: dts: Enable twl4030 off-idle configuration
      for selected omaps) allowed n900 to cut off core voltages during
      off-idle. This however caused a regression where twl regulator
      vaux1 was not getting enabled for the LCD panel as we are not
      requesting it for the panel.
      
      Turns out quite a few devices on n900 are using vaux1, and we need
      to either stop idling it, or add proper regulator_get calls for all
      users. But until we have a proper solution implemented and tested,
      let's just disable the twl off-idle configuration for now for n900.

      ip: make IP identifiers less predictable · 04ca6973
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      In "Counting Packets Sent Between Arbitrary Internet Hosts", Jeffrey and
      Jedidiah describe ways exploiting linux IP identifier generation to
      infer whether two machines are exchanging packets.
      
      With commit 73f156a6 ("inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_count"), we
      changed IP id generation, but this does not really prevent this
      side-channel technique.
      
      This patch adds a random amount of perturbation so that IP identifiers
      for a given destination [1] are no longer monotonically increasing after
      an idle period.
      
      Note that prandom_u32_max(1) returns 0, so if generator is used at most
      once per jiffy, this patch inserts no hole in the ID suite and do not
      increase collision probability.
      
      This is jiffies based, so in the worst case (HZ=1000), the id can
      rollover after ~65 seconds of idle time, which should be fine.
      
      We also change the hash used in __ip_select_ident() to not only hash
      on daddr, but also saddr and protocol, so that ICMP probes can not be
      used to infer information for other protocols.
      
      For IPv6, adds saddr into the hash as well, but not nexthdr.

      neighbour : fix ndm_type type error issue · 545469f7
      Jun Zhao 提交于
      ndm_type means L3 address type, in neighbour proxy and vxlan, it's RTN_UNICAST.
      NDA_DST is for netlink TLV type, hence it's not right value in this context.

      sunvnet: only use connected ports when sending · 8266f5fc
      David L Stevens 提交于
      The sunvnet driver doesn't check whether or not a port is connected when
      transmitting packets, which results in failures if a port fails to connect
      (e.g., due to a version mismatch). The original code also assumes
      unnecessarily that the first port is up and a switch, even though there is
      a flag for switch ports.
      
      This patch only matches a port if it is connected, and otherwise uses the
      switch_port flag to send the packet to a switch port that is up.

      this is a pull request of one patch for the net tree, hoping to get into the
      3.16 release.
      
      The patch by George Cherian fixes a regression in the c_can platform driver.
      When using two interfaces the regression leads to a non function second
      interface.

      Fix gcc-4.9.0 miscompilation of load_balance() in scheduler · 2062afb4
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Michel Dänzer and a couple of other people reported inexplicable random
      oopses in the scheduler, and the cause turns out to be gcc mis-compiling
      the load_balance() function when debugging is enabled.  The gcc bug
      apparently goes back to gcc-4.5, but slight optimization changes means
      that it now showed up as a problem in 4.9.0 and 4.9.1.
      
      The instruction scheduling problem causes gcc to schedule a spill
      operation to before the stack frame has been created, which in turn can
      corrupt the spilled value if an interrupt comes in.  There may be other
      effects of this bug too, but that's the code generation problem seen in
      Michel's case.
      
      This is fixed in current gcc HEAD, but the workaround as suggested by
      Markus Trippelsdorf is pretty simple: use -fno-var-tracking-assignments
      when compiling the kernel, which disables the gcc code that causes the
      problem.  This can result in slightly worse debug information for
      variable accesses, but that is infinitely preferable to actual code
      generation problems.
      
      Doing this unconditionally (not just for CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO) also allows
      non-debug builds to verify that the debug build would be identical: we
      can do
      
          export GCC_COMPARE_DEBUG=1
      
      to make gcc internally verify that the result of the build is
      independent of the "-g" flag (it will make the compiler build everything
      twice, toggling the debug flag, and compare the results).
      
      Without the "-fno-var-tracking-assignments" option, the build would fail
      (even with 4.8.3 that didn't show the actual stack frame bug) with a gcc
      compare failure.

      mm: fix direct reclaim writeback regression · 8bdd6380

      Shortly before 3.16-rc1, Dave Jones reported:

       970   if (WARN_ON_ONCE((current->flags & (PF_MEMALLOC|PF_KSWAPD)) ==
       971                   PF_MEMALLOC))
      
      I did not respond at the time, because a glance at the PageDirty block
      in shrink_page_list() quickly shows that this is impossible: we don't do
      writeback on file pages (other than tmpfs) from direct reclaim nowadays.
      Dave was hallucinating, but it would have been disrespectful to say so.
      
      However, my own /var/log/messages now shows similar complaints
      
        WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 28814 at fs/ext4/inode.c:1881 ext4_writepage+0xa7/0x38b()
        WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 27347 at fs/ext4/inode.c:1764 ext4_writepage+0xa7/0x38b()
      
      from stressing some mmotm trees during July.
      
      Could a dirty xfs or ext4 file page somehow get marked PageSwapBacked,
      so fail shrink_page_list()'s page_is_file_cache() test, and so proceed
      to mapping->a_ops->writepage()?
      
      Yes, 3.16-rc1's commit 68711a74 ("mm, migration: add destination
      page freeing callback") has provided such a way to compaction: if
      migrating a SwapBacked page fails, its newpage may be put back on the
      list for later use with PageSwapBacked still set, and nothing will clear
      it.
      
      Whether that can do anything worse than issue WARN_ON_ONCEs, and get
      some statistics wrong, is unclear: easier to fix than to think through
      the consequences.
      
      Fixing it here, before the put_new_page(), addresses the bug directly,
      but is probably the worst place to fix it.  Page migration is doing too
      many parts of the job on too many levels: fixing it in
      move_to_new_page() to complement its SetPageSwapBacked would be
      preferable, except why is it (and newpage->mapping and newpage->index)
      done there, rather than down in migrate_page_move_mapping(), once we are
      sure of success? Not a cleanup to get into right now, especially not
      with memcg cleanups coming in 3.17.
