wrappers for ->i_mutex access

2016-09-15T06:27:52+00:00

commit 5955102c9984fa081b2d570cfac75c97eecf8f3b upstream

parallel to mutex_{lock,unlock,trylock,is_locked,lock_nested},
inode_foo(inode) being mutex_foo(&inode->i_mutex).

Please, use those for access to ->i_mutex; over the coming cycle
->i_mutex will become rwsem, with ->lookup() done with it held
only shared.

kernel: Add noaudit variant of ns_capable()

2016-09-15T06:27:50+00:00

commit 98f368e9e2630a3ce3e80fb10fb2e02038cf9578 upstream.

When checking the current cred for a capability in a specific user
namespace, it isn't always desirable to have the LSMs audit the check.
This patch adds a noaudit variant of ns_capable() for when those
situations arise.

The common logic between ns_capable() and the new ns_capable_noaudit()
is moved into a single, shared function to keep duplicated code to a
minimum and ease maintainability.

block: fix blk_rq_get_max_sectors for driver private requests

2016-09-15T06:27:47+00:00

[ Upstream commit f21018427cb007a0894c36ad702990ab639cbbb4 ]

Driver private request types should not get the artifical cap for the
FS requests.  This is important to use the full device capabilities
for internal command or NVMe pass through commands.

Updated by me to use an explicit check for the one command type that
does support extended checking, instead of relying on the ordering
of the enum command values - as suggested by Keith.

time: Verify time values in adjtimex ADJ_SETOFFSET to avoid overflow

2016-09-15T06:27:47+00:00

[ Upstream commit 37cf4dc3370fbca0344e23bb96446eb2c3548ba7 ]

For adjtimex()'s ADJ_SETOFFSET, make sure the tv_usec value is
sane. We might multiply them later which can cause an overflow
and undefined behavior.

This patch introduces new helper functions to simplify the
checking code and adds comments to clarify

Orginally this patch was by Sasha Levin, but I've basically
rewritten it, so he should get credit for finding the issue
and I should get the blame for any mistakes made since.

Also, credit to Richard Cochran for the phrasing used in the
comment for what is considered valid here.

perf/x86/cqm: Fix CQM handling of grouping events into a cache_group

2016-09-15T06:27:46+00:00

[ Upstream commit a223c1c7ab4cc64537dc4b911f760d851683768a ]

Currently CQM (cache quality of service monitoring) is grouping all
events belonging to same PID to use one RMID. However its not counting
all of these different events. Hence we end up with a count of zero
for all events other than the group leader.

The patch tries to address the issue by keeping a flag in the
perf_event.hw which has other CQM related fields. The field is updated
at event creation and during grouping.

proc: revert /proc//maps [stack:TID] annotation

2016-09-15T06:27:46+00:00

[ Upstream commit 65376df582174ffcec9e6471bf5b0dd79ba05e4a ]

Commit b76437579d13 ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in
proc//maps") added [stack:TID] annotation to /proc//maps.

Finding the task of a stack VMA requires walking the entire thread list,
turning this into quadratic behavior: a thousand threads means a
thousand stacks, so the rendering of /proc//maps needs to look at a
million combinations.

The cost is not in proportion to the usefulness as described in the
patch.

Drop the [stack:TID] annotation to make /proc//maps (and
/proc//numa_maps) usable again for higher thread counts.

The [stack] annotation inside /proc//task//maps is retained, as
identifying the stack VMA there is an O(1) operation.

Siddesh said:
 "The end users needed a way to identify thread stacks programmatically and
  there wasn't a way to do that.  I'm afraid I no longer remember (or have
  access to the resources that would aid my memory since I changed
  employers) the details of their requirement.  However, I did do this on my
  own time because I thought it was an interesting project for me and nobody
  really gave any feedback then as to its utility, so as far as I am
  concerned you could roll back the main thread maps information since the
  information is available in the thread-specific files"

lightnvm: fix missing grown bad block type

[ Upstream commit b5d4acd4cbf5029a2616084d9e9f392046d53a37 ]

The get/set bad block interface defines good block, factory bad block,
grown bad block, device reserved block, and host reserved block.
Unfortunately the grown bad block was missing, leaving the offsets wrong
for device and host side reserved blocks.

This patch adds the missing type and corrects the offsets.

ACPI / drivers: fix typo in ACPI_DECLARE_PROBE_ENTRY macro

2016-09-07T06:32:45+00:00

commit 3feab13c919f99b0a17d0ca22ae00cf90f5d3fd1 upstream.

When the ACPI_DECLARE_PROBE_ENTRY macro was added in
commit e647b532275b ("ACPI: Add early device probing infrastructure"),
a stub macro adding an unused entry was added for the !CONFIG_ACPI
Kconfig option case to make sure kernel code making use of the
macro did not require to be guarded within CONFIG_ACPI in order to
be compiled.

The stub macro was never used since all kernel code that defines
ACPI_DECLARE_PROBE_ENTRY entries is currently guarded within
CONFIG_ACPI; it contains a typo that should be nonetheless fixed.

Fix the typo in the stub (ie !CONFIG_ACPI) ACPI_DECLARE_PROBE_ENTRY()
macro so that it can actually be used if needed.

Input: i8042 - break load dependency between atkbd/psmouse and i8042

2016-09-07T06:32:44+00:00

commit 4097461897df91041382ff6fcd2bfa7ee6b2448c upstream.

As explained in 1407814240-4275-1-git-send-email-decui@microsoft.com we
have a hard load dependency between i8042 and atkbd which prevents
keyboard from working on Gen2 Hyper-V VMs.

> hyperv_keyboard invokes serio_interrupt(), which needs a valid serio
> driver like atkbd.c.  atkbd.c depends on libps2.c because it invokes
> ps2_command().  libps2.c depends on i8042.c because it invokes
> i8042_check_port_owner().  As a result, hyperv_keyboard actually
> depends on i8042.c.
>
> For a Generation 2 Hyper-V VM (meaning no i8042 device emulated), if a
> Linux VM (like Arch Linux) happens to configure CONFIG_SERIO_I8042=m
> rather than =y, atkbd.ko can't load because i8042.ko can't load(due to
> no i8042 device emulated) and finally hyperv_keyboard can't work and
> the user can't input: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/39820
> (Ubuntu/RHEL/SUSE aren't affected since they use CONFIG_SERIO_I8042=y)

To break the dependency we move away from using i8042_check_port_owner()
and instead allow serio port owner specify a mutex that clients should use
to serialize PS/2 command stream.
