commit ed5467da0e369e65b247b99eb6403cb79172bcda upstream.

tracing_read_pipe zeros all fields bellow "seq". The declaration contains
a comment about that, but it doesn't help.

The first field is "snapshot", it's true when current open file is
snapshot. Looks obvious, that it should not be zeroed.

The second field is "started". It was converted from cpumask_t to
cpumask_var_t (v2.6.28-4983-g4462344), in other words it was
converted from cpumask to pointer on cpumask.

Currently the reference on "started" memory is lost after the first read
from tracing_read_pipe and a proper object will never be freed.

The "started" is never dereferenced for trace_pipe, because trace_pipe
can't have the TRACE_FILE_ANNOTATE options.

commit cc229884d3f77ec3b1240e467e0236c3e0647c0c upstream.

This adds a way to check ring empty state after enable_cb outside any
locks. Will be used by virtio_net.

Note: there's room for more optimization: caller is likely to have a
memory barrier already, which means we might be able to get rid of a
barrier here.  Deferring this optimization until we do some
benchmarking.

commit 0699a73af3811b66b1ab5650575acee5eea841ab upstream.

Commit 18d627113b83 (firewire: prevent dropping of completed iso packet
header data) was intended to be an obvious bug fix, but libdc1394 and
FlyCap2 depend on the old behaviour by ignoring all returned information
and thus not noticing that not all packets have been received yet.  The
result was that the video frame buffers would be saved before they
contained the correct data.

Reintroduce the old behaviour for old clients.

commit 26cb63ad11e04047a64309362674bcbbd6a6f246 upstream.

Vince reported a problem found by his perf specific trinity
fuzzer.

Al noticed 2 problems with perf's mmap():

 - it has issues against fork() since we use vma-&gt;vm_mm for accounting.
 - it has an rb refcount leak on double mmap().

We fix the issues against fork() by using VM_DONTCOPY; I don't
think there's code out there that uses this; we didn't hear
about weird accounting problems/crashes. If we do need this to
work, the previously proposed VM_PINNED could make this work.

Aside from the rb reference leak spotted by Al, Vince's example
prog was indeed doing a double mmap() through the use of
perf_event_set_output().

This exposes another problem, since we now have 2 events with
one buffer, the accounting gets screwy because we account per
event. Fix this by making the buffer responsible for its own
accounting.

[Backporting for 3.4-stable.
VM_RESERVED flag was replaced with pair 'VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP' in
314e51b9 since 3.7.0-rc1, and 314e51b9 comes from a big patchset, we didn't
backport the patchset, so I restored 'VM_DNOTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP' as before:
-       vma-&gt;vm_flags |= VM_DONTCOPY | VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP;
+       vma-&gt;vm_flags |= VM_DONTCOPY | VM_RESERVED;

[ Upstream commit c87a124a5d5e8cf8e21c4363c3372bcaf53ea190 ]

Roman Gushchin discovered that udp4_lib_lookup2() was not reloading
first item in the rcu protected list, in case the loop was restarted.

This produced soft lockups as in https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/16/37

rcu_dereference(X)/ACCESS_ONCE(X) seem to not work as intended if X is
ptr-&gt;field :

In some cases, gcc caches the value or ptr-&gt;field in a register.

Use a barrier() to disallow such caching, as documented in
Documentation/atomic_ops.txt line 114

Thanks a lot to Roman for providing analysis and numerous patches.

MSG_CMSG_COMPAT is (AFAIK) not intended to be part of the API --
it's a hack that steals a bit to indicate to other networking code

commit e9966076cdd952e19f2dd4854cd719be0d7cbebc upstream.

The auth code is called from a variety of contexts, include the mon_client
(protected by the monc's mutex) and the messenger callbacks (currently
protected by nothing).  Avoid chaos by protecting all auth state with a
mutex.  Nothing is blocking, so this should be simple and lightweight.

commit 27859f9773e4a0b2042435b13400ee2c891a61f4 upstream.

Use wrapper functions that check whether the auth op exists so that callers
do not need a bunch of conditional checks.  Simplifies the external
interface.

<title>libceph: add update_authorizer auth method</title>

commit 0bed9b5c523d577378b6f83eab5835fe30c27208 upstream.

Currently the messenger calls out to a get_authorizer con op, which will
create a new authorizer if it doesn't yet have one.  In the meantime, when
we rotate our service keys, the authorizer doesn't get updated.  Eventually
it will be rejected by the server on a new connection attempt and get
invalidated, and we will then rebuild a new authorizer, but this is not
ideal.

Instead, if we do have an authorizer, call a new update_authorizer op that
will verify that the current authorizer is using the latest secret.  If it
is not, we will build a new one that does.  This avoids the transient
failure.

This fixes one of the sorry sequence of events for bug
