This reverts commit 127500d724f8c43f452610c9080444eedb5eaa6c.  That fixed
the problem of buffer over-reads introduced by backporting commit
89c22d8c3b27 ("net: Fix skb csum races when peeking"), but resulted in
incorrect checksumming for short reads.  It will be replaced with a
complete fix.

commit 5e1033561da1152c57b97ee84371dba2b3d64c25 upstream.

KASAN found that our additional element processing scripts drop off
the end of the VPD page into unallocated space.  The reason is that
not every element has additional information but our traversal
routines think they do, leading to them expecting far more additional
information than is present.  Fix this by adding a gate to the
traversal routine so that it only processes elements that are expected
to have additional information (list is in SES-2 section 6.1.13.1:
Additional Element Status diagnostic page overview)

[ Upstream commit 45f6fad84cc305103b28d73482b344d7f5b76f39 ]

This patch addresses multiple problems :

UDP/RAW sendmsg() need to get a stable struct ipv6_txoptions
while socket is not locked : Other threads can change np-&gt;opt
concurrently. Dmitry posted a syzkaller
(http://github.com/google/syzkaller) program desmonstrating
use-after-free.

Starting with TCP/DCCP lockless listeners, tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock()
and dccp_v6_request_recv_sock() also need to use RCU protection
to dereference np-&gt;opt once (before calling ipv6_dup_options())

This patch adds full RCU protection to np-&gt;opt

commit 9a37110d20c95d1ebf6c04881177fe8f62831db2 upstream.

An interface may need to assert a lock invariant and not flood the
system logs; add a lockdep helper macro equivalent to
lockdep_assert_held() which only WARNs once.

<title>ACPI: Use correct IRQ when uninstalling ACPI interrupt handler</title>

commit 49e4b84333f338d4f183f28f1f3c1131b9fb2b5a upstream.

Currently when the system is trying to uninstall the ACPI interrupt
handler, it uses acpi_gbl_FADT.sci_interrupt as the IRQ number.
However, the IRQ number that the ACPI interrupt handled is installed
for comes from acpi_gsi_to_irq() and that is the number that should
be used for the handler removal.

Fix this problem by using the mapped IRQ returned from acpi_gsi_to_irq()
as appropriate.

<title>ext4, jbd2: ensure entering into panic after recording an error in superblock</title>

commit 4327ba52afd03fc4b5afa0ee1d774c9c5b0e85c5 upstream.

If a EXT4 filesystem utilizes JBD2 journaling and an error occurs, the
journaling will be aborted first and the error number will be recorded
into JBD2 superblock and, finally, the system will enter into the
panic state in "errors=panic" option.  But, in the rare case, this
sequence is little twisted like the below figure and it will happen
that the system enters into panic state, which means the system reset
in mobile environment, before completion of recording an error in the
journal superblock. In this case, e2fsck cannot recognize that the
filesystem failure occurred in the previous run and the corruption
wouldn't be fixed.

Task A                        Task B
ext4_handle_error()
-&gt; jbd2_journal_abort()
  -&gt; __journal_abort_soft()

[ Upstream commit 31b33dfb0a144469dd805514c9e63f4993729a48 ]

Earlier patch 6ae459bda tried to detect void ckecksum partial
skb by comparing pull length to checksum offset. But it does
not work for all cases since checksum-offset depends on
updates to skb-&gt;data.

Following patch fixes it by validating checksum start offset
after skb-data pointer is updated. Negative value of checksum
offset start means there is no need to checksum.

[ Upstream commit 6ae459bdaaeebc632b16e54dcbabb490c6931d61 ]

VXLAN device can receive skb with checksum partial. But the checksum
offset could be in outer header which is pulled on receive. This results
in negative checksum offset for the skb. Such skb can cause the assert
failure in skb_checksum_help(). Following patch fixes the bug by setting
checksum-none while pulling outer header.

Following is the kernel panic msg from old kernel hitting the bug.

[ Upstream commit 6ae459bdaaeebc632b16e54dcbabb490c6931d61 ]

VXLAN device can receive skb with checksum partial. But the checksum
offset could be in outer header which is pulled on receive. This results
in negative checksum offset for the skb. Such skb can cause the assert
failure in skb_checksum_help(). Following patch fixes the bug by setting
checksum-none while pulling outer header.

Following is the kernel panic msg from old kernel hitting the bug.

<title>net: add length argument to skb_copy_and_csum_datagram_iovec</title>

Without this length argument, we can read past the end of the iovec in
memcpy_toiovec because we have no way of knowing the total length of the
iovec's buffers.

This is needed for stable kernels where 89c22d8c3b27 ("net: Fix skb
csum races when peeking") has been backported but that don't have the
ioviter conversion, which is almost all the stable trees &lt;= 3.18.

This also fixes a kernel crash for NFS servers when the client uses
 -onfsvers=3,proto=udp to mount the export.

commit 80e0b6e8a001361316a2d62b748fe677ec46b860 upstream.

We accidentally declared pid_alive without any extern/inline connotation.
Some platforms were fine with this, some like ia64 and mips were very angry.
If the function is inline, the prototype should be inline!
