[ Upstream commit 57c46e9f33da530a2485fa01aa27b6d18c28c796 ]

A number of hangs have been reported against the target driver; they are
due to the fact that multiple threads may try to destroy the iscsi session
at the same time. This may be reproduced for example when a "targetcli
iscsi/iqn.../tpg1 disable" command is executed while a logout operation is
underway.

When this happens, two or more threads may end up sleeping and waiting for
iscsit_close_connection() to execute "complete(session_wait_comp)".  Only
one of the threads will wake up and proceed to destroy the session
structure, the remaining threads will hang forever.

Note that if the blocked threads are somehow forced to wake up with
complete_all(), they will try to free the same iscsi session structure
destroyed by the first thread, causing double frees, memory corruptions
etc...

With this patch, the threads that want to destroy the iscsi session will
increase the session refcount and will set the "session_close" flag to 1;
then they wait for the driver to close the remaining active connections.
When the last connection is closed, iscsit_close_connection() will wake up
all the threads and will wait for the session's refcount to reach zero;
when this happens, iscsit_close_connection() will destroy the session
structure because no one is referencing it anymore.

[ Upstream commit 87b0f983f66f23762921129fd35966eddc3f2dae ]

To rehash a previous explanation given in commit 1c44ce560b4d ("net:
mscc: ocelot: fix vlan_filtering when enslaving to bridge before link is
up"), the switch driver operates the in a mode where a single VLAN can
be transmitted as untagged on a particular egress port. That is the
"native VLAN on trunk port" use case.

The configuration for this native VLAN is driven in 2 ways:
 - Set the egress port rewriter to strip the VLAN tag for the native
   VID (as it is egress-untagged, after all).
 - Configure the ingress port to drop untagged and priority-tagged
   traffic, if there is no native VLAN. The intention of this setting is
   that a trunk port with no native VLAN should not accept untagged
   traffic.

Since both of the above configurations for the native VLAN should only
be done if VLAN awareness is requested, they are actually done from the
ocelot_port_vlan_filtering function, after the basic procedure of
toggling the VLAN awareness flag of the port.

But there's a problem with that simplistic approach: we are trying to
juggle with 2 independent variables from a single function:
 - Native VLAN of the port - its value is held in port-&gt;vid.
 - VLAN awareness state of the port - currently there are some issues
   here, more on that later*.
The actual problem can be seen when enslaving the switch ports to a VLAN
filtering bridge:
 0. The driver configures a pvid of zero for each port, when in
    standalone mode. While the bridge configures a default_pvid of 1 for
    each port that gets added as a slave to it.
 1. The bridge calls ocelot_port_vlan_filtering with vlan_aware=true.
    The VLAN-filtering-dependent portion of the native VLAN
    configuration is done, considering that the native VLAN is 0.
 2. The bridge calls ocelot_vlan_add with vid=1, pvid=true,
    untagged=true. The native VLAN changes to 1 (change which gets
    propagated to hardware).
 3. ??? - nobody calls ocelot_port_vlan_filtering again, to reapply the
    VLAN-filtering-dependent portion of the native VLAN configuration,
    for the new native VLAN of 1. One can notice that after toggling "ip
    link set dev br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 0 &amp;&amp; ip link set dev br0
    type bridge vlan_filtering 1", the new native VLAN finally makes it
    through and untagged traffic finally starts flowing again. But
    obviously that shouldn't be needed.

So it is clear that 2 independent variables need to both re-trigger the
native VLAN configuration. So we introduce the second variable as
ocelot_port-&gt;vlan_aware.

*Actually both the DSA Felix driver and the Ocelot driver already had
each its own variable:
 - Ocelot: ocelot_port_private-&gt;vlan_aware
 - Felix: dsa_port-&gt;vlan_filtering
but the common Ocelot library needs to work with a single, common,
variable, so there is some refactoring done to move the vlan_aware
property from the private structure into the common ocelot_port
structure.

<title>net: ipv6: do not consider routes via gateways for anycast address check</title>

[ Upstream commit 03e2a984b6165621f287fadf5f4b5cd8b58dcaba ]

The behaviour for what is considered an anycast address changed in
commit 45e4fd26683c ("ipv6: Only create RTF_CACHE routes after
encountering pmtu exception"). This now considers the first
address in a subnet where there is a route via a gateway
to be an anycast address.

This breaks path MTU discovery and traceroutes when a host in a
remote network uses the address at the start of a prefix
(eg 2600:: advertised as 2600::/48 in the DFZ) as ICMP errors
will not be sent to anycast addresses.

This patch excludes any routes with a gateway, or via point to
point links, like the behaviour previously from
rt6_is_gw_or_nonexthop in net/ipv6/route.c.

This can be tested with:
ip link add v1 type veth peer name v2
ip netns add test
ip netns exec test ip link set lo up
ip link set v2 netns test
ip link set v1 up
ip netns exec test ip link set v2 up
ip addr add 2001:db8::1/64 dev v1 nodad
ip addr add 2001:db8:100:: dev lo nodad
ip netns exec test ip addr add 2001:db8::2/64 dev v2 nodad
ip netns exec test ip route add unreachable 2001:db8:1::1
ip netns exec test ip route add 2001:db8:100::/64 via 2001:db8::1
ip netns exec test sysctl net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1
ip route add 2001:db8:1::1 via 2001:db8::2
ping -I 2001:db8::1 2001:db8:1::1 -c1
ping -I 2001:db8:100:: 2001:db8:1::1 -c1
ip addr delete 2001:db8:100:: dev lo
ip netns delete test

Currently the first ping will get back a destination unreachable ICMP
error, but the second will never get a response, with "icmp6_send:
acast source" logged. After this patch, both get destination
unreachable ICMP replies.

<title>xarray: Fix early termination of xas_for_each_marked</title>

commit 7e934cf5ace1dceeb804f7493fa28bb697ed3c52 upstream.

xas_for_each_marked() is using entry == NULL as a termination condition
of the iteration. When xas_for_each_marked() is used protected only by
RCU, this can however race with xas_store(xas, NULL) in the following
way:

TASK1                                   TASK2
page_cache_delete()         	        find_get_pages_range_tag()
                                          xas_for_each_marked()
                                            xas_find_marked()
                                              off = xas_find_chunk()

  xas_store(&amp;xas, NULL)
    xas_init_marks(&amp;xas);
    ...
    rcu_assign_pointer(*slot, NULL);
                                              entry = xa_entry(off);

And thus xas_for_each_marked() terminates prematurely possibly leading
to missed entries in the iteration (translating to missing writeback of
some pages or a similar problem).

If we find a NULL entry that has been marked, skip it (unless we're trying
to allocate an entry).

<title>signal: Extend exec_id to 64bits</title>

<id>d65376ec3f4713fbd47e1837228394d06c7ada2a</id>
<content type='text'>
commit d1e7fd6462ca9fc76650fbe6ca800e35b24267da upstream.

Replace the 32bit exec_id with a 64bit exec_id to make it impossible
to wrap the exec_id counter.  With care an attacker can cause exec_id
wrap and send arbitrary signals to a newly exec'd parent.  This
bypasses the signal sending checks if the parent changes their
credentials during exec.

The severity of this problem can been seen that in my limited testing
of a 32bit exec_id it can take as little as 19s to exec 65536 times.
Which means that it can take as little as 14 days to wrap a 32bit
exec_id.  Adam Zabrocki has succeeded wrapping the self_exe_id in 7
days.  Even my slower timing is in the uptime of a typical server.
Which means self_exec_id is simply a speed bump today, and if exec
gets noticably faster self_exec_id won't even be a speed bump.

Extending self_exec_id to 64bits introduces a problem on 32bit
architectures where reading self_exec_id is no longer atomic and can
take two read instructions.  Which means that is is possible to hit
a window where the read value of exec_id does not match the written
value.  So with very lucky timing after this change this still
remains expoiltable.

I have updated the update of exec_id on exec to use WRITE_ONCE
and the read of exec_id in do_notify_parent to use READ_ONCE
to make it clear that there is no locking between these two
locations.

<title>cpu/hotplug: Ignore pm_wakeup_pending() for disable_nonboot_cpus()</title>

commit e98eac6ff1b45e4e73f2e6031b37c256ccb5d36b upstream.

A recent change to freeze_secondary_cpus() which added an early abort if a
wakeup is pending missed the fact that the function is also invoked for
shutdown, reboot and kexec via disable_nonboot_cpus().

In case of disable_nonboot_cpus() the wakeup event needs to be ignored as
the purpose is to terminate the currently running kernel.

Add a 'suspend' argument which is only set when the freeze is in context of
a suspend operation. If not set then an eventually pending wakeup event is
ignored.

<title>rcu: Make rcu_barrier() account for offline no-CBs CPUs</title>

commit 127e29815b4b2206c0a97ac1d83f92ffc0e25c34 upstream.

Currently, rcu_barrier() ignores offline CPUs,  However, it is possible
for an offline no-CBs CPU to have callbacks queued, and rcu_barrier()
must wait for those callbacks.  This commit therefore makes rcu_barrier()
directly invoke the rcu_barrier_func() with interrupts disabled for such
CPUs.  This requires passing the CPU number into this function so that
it can entrain the rcu_barrier() callback onto the correct CPU's callback
list, given that the code must instead execute on the current CPU.

While in the area, this commit fixes a bug where the first CPU's callback
might have been invoked before rcu_segcblist_entrain() returned, which
would also result in an early wakeup.

<title>PCI: endpoint: Fix for concurrent memory allocation in OB address region</title>

commit 04e046ca57ebed3943422dee10eec9e73aec081e upstream.

pci-epc-mem uses a bitmap to manage the Endpoint outbound (OB) address
region. This address region will be shared by multiple endpoint
functions (in the case of multi function endpoint) and it has to be
protected from concurrent access to avoid updating an inconsistent state.

Use a mutex to protect bitmap updates to prevent the memory
allocation API from returning incorrect addresses.

commit 8c5c660529209a0e324c1c1a35ce3f83d67a2aa5 upstream.

The original patch was to resolve the lldd being able to be unloaded
while being used to talk to the boot device of the system. However, the
end result of the original patch is that any driver unload while a nvme
controller is live via the lldd is now being prohibited. Given the module
reference, the module teardown routine can't be called, thus there's no
way, other than manual actions to terminate the controllers.

commit 3f5b9959041e0db6dacbea80bb833bff5900999f upstream.

When CONFIG_DEVFREQ_THERMAL is disabled all functions except
of_devfreq_cooling_register_power() were already inlined. Also inline
the last function to avoid compile errors when multiple drivers call
of_devfreq_cooling_register_power() when CONFIG_DEVFREQ_THERMAL is not
set. Compilation failed with the following message:
  multiple definition of `of_devfreq_cooling_register_power'
(which then lists all usages of of_devfreq_cooling_register_power())

Thomas Zimmermann reported this problem [0] on a kernel config with
CONFIG_DRM_LIMA={m,y}, CONFIG_DRM_PANFROST={m,y} and
CONFIG_DEVFREQ_THERMAL=n after both, the lima and panfrost drivers
gained devfreq cooling support.
