[ Upstream commit dc17147de328a74bbdee67c1bf37d2f1992de756 ]

Commit f37755490fe9b ("tracepoints: Do not trace when cpu is offline") added
a check to make sure that tracepoints only get called when the cpu is
online, as it uses rcu_read_lock_sched() for protection.

Commit 3a630178fd5f3 ("tracing: generate RCU warnings even when tracepoints
are disabled") added lockdep checks (including rcu checks) for events that
are not enabled to catch possible RCU issues that would only be triggered if
a trace event was enabled. Commit f37755490fe9b only stopped the warnings
when the trace event was enabled but did not prevent warnings if the trace
event was called when disabled.

To fix this, the cpu online check is moved to where the condition is added
to the trace event. This will place the cpu online check in all places that
it may be used now and in the future.

[ Upstream commit cb150b9d23be6ee7f3a0fff29784f1c5b5ac514d ]

Since cfg80211 frequently takes actions from its netdev notifier
call, wireless extensions messages could still be ordered badly
since the wext netdev notifier, since wext is built into the
kernel, runs before the cfg80211 netdev notifier. For example,
the following can happen:

5: wlan1: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN group default
    link/ether 02:00:00:00:01:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
5: wlan1: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP&gt;
    link/ether

when setting the interface down causes the wext message.

To also fix this, export the wireless_nlevent_flush() function
and also call it from the cfg80211 notifier.

The bio passed to bio_will_gap() may be fast cloned from upper
layer(dm, md, bcache, fs, ...), or from bio splitting in block
core.

Unfortunately bio_will_gap() just figures out the last bvec via
'bi_io_vec[prev-&gt;bi_vcnt - 1]' directly, and this way is obviously
wrong.

This patch introduces two helpers for getting the first and last
bvec of one bio for fixing the issue.

[ Upstream commit 4ee34ea3a12396f35b26d90a094c75db95080baa ]

The id buffer in ata_device is a DMA target, but it isn't explicitly
cacheline aligned. Due to this, adjacent fields can be overwritten with
stale data from memory on non coherent architectures. As a result, the
kernel is sometimes unable to communicate with an ATA device.

Fix this by ensuring that the id buffer is cacheline aligned.

This issue is similar to that fixed by Commit 84bda12af31f

<title>libata: fix HDIO_GET_32BIT ioctl</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 287e6611ab1eac76c2c5ebf6e345e04c80ca9c61 ]

As reported by Soohoon Lee, the HDIO_GET_32BIT ioctl does not
work correctly in compat mode with libata.

I have investigated the issue further and found multiple problems
that all appeared with the same commit that originally introduced
HDIO_GET_32BIT handling in libata back in linux-2.6.8 and presumably
also linux-2.4, as the code uses "copy_to_user(arg, &amp;val, 1)" to copy
a 'long' variable containing either 0 or 1 to user space.

The problems with this are:

* On big-endian machines, this will always write a zero because it
  stores the wrong byte into user space.

* In compat mode, the upper three bytes of the variable are updated
  by the compat_hdio_ioctl() function, but they now contain
  uninitialized stack data.

* The hdparm tool calling this ioctl uses a 'static long' variable
  to store the result. This means at least the upper bytes are
  initialized to zero, but calling another ioctl like HDIO_GET_MULTCOUNT
  would fill them with data that remains stale when the low byte
  is overwritten. Fortunately libata doesn't implement any of the
  affected ioctl commands, so this would only happen when we query
  both an IDE and an ATA device in the same command such as
  "hdparm -N -c /dev/hda /dev/sda"

* The libata code for unknown reasons started using ATA_IOC_GET_IO32
  and ATA_IOC_SET_IO32 as aliases for HDIO_GET_32BIT and HDIO_SET_32BIT,
  while the ioctl commands that were added later use the normal
  HDIO_* names. This is harmless but rather confusing.

This addresses all four issues by changing the code to use put_user()
on an 'unsigned long' variable in HDIO_GET_32BIT, like the IDE subsystem
does, and by clarifying the names of the ioctl commands.

<content type='text'>
commit 0f4a943168f31d29a1701908931acaba518b131a upstream.

To address the bug where fabric driver level shutdown
of se_cmd occurs at the same time when TMR CMD_T_ABORTED
is happening resulting in a -1 -&gt;cmd_kref, this patch
adds a CMD_T_FABRIC_STOP bit that is used to determine
when TMR + driver I_T nexus shutdown is happening
concurrently.

It changes target_sess_cmd_list_set_waiting() to obtain
se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref + set CMD_T_FABRIC_STOP, and drop local
reference in target_wait_for_sess_cmds() and invoke extra
target_put_sess_cmd() during Task Aborted Status (TAS)
when necessary.

Also, it adds a new target_wait_free_cmd() wrapper around
transport_wait_for_tasks() for the special case within
transport_generic_free_cmd() to set CMD_T_FABRIC_STOP,
and is now aware of CMD_T_ABORTED + CMD_T_TAS status
bits to know when an extra transport_put_cmd() during
TAS is required.

Note transport_generic_free_cmd() is expected to block on
cmd-&gt;cmd_wait_comp in order to follow what iscsi-target
expects during iscsi_conn context se_cmd shutdown.

[ Upstream commit 057085e522f8bf94c2e691a5b76880f68060f8ba ]

This patch addresses a race + use after free where the first
stage of COMPARE_AND_WRITE in compare_and_write_callback()
is rescheduled after the backend sends the secondary WRITE,
resulting in second stage compare_and_write_post() callback
completing in target_complete_ok_work() before the first
can return.

Because current code depends on checking se_cmd-&gt;se_cmd_flags
after return from se_cmd-&gt;transport_complete_callback(),
this results in first stage having SCF_COMPARE_AND_WRITE_POST
set, which incorrectly falls through into second stage CAW
processing code, eventually triggering a NULL pointer
dereference due to use after free.

To address this bug, pass in a new *post_ret parameter into
se_cmd-&gt;transport_complete_callback(), and depend upon this
value instead of -&gt;se_cmd_flags to determine when to return
or fall through into -&gt;queue_status() code for CAW.

[ Upstream commit b33c8ff4431a343561e2319f17c14286f2aa52e2 ]

In my randconfig tests, I came across a bug that involves several
components:

* gcc-4.9 through at least 5.3
* CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL enabling -fprofile-arcs for all files
* CONFIG_PROFILE_ALL_BRANCHES overriding every if()
* The optimized implementation of do_div() that tries to
  replace a library call with an division by multiplication
* code in drivers/media/dvb-frontends/zl10353.c doing

        u32 adc_clock = 450560; /* 45.056 MHz */
        if (state-&gt;config.adc_clock)
                adc_clock = state-&gt;config.adc_clock;
        do_div(value, adc_clock);

In this case, gcc fails to determine whether the divisor
in do_div() is __builtin_constant_p(). In particular, it
concludes that __builtin_constant_p(adc_clock) is false, while
__builtin_constant_p(!!adc_clock) is true.

That in turn throws off the logic in do_div() that also uses
__builtin_constant_p(), and instead of picking either the
constant- optimized division, and the code in ilog2() that uses
__builtin_constant_p() to figure out whether it knows the answer at
compile time. The result is a link error from failing to find
multiple symbols that should never have been called based on
the __builtin_constant_p():

dvb-frontends/zl10353.c:138: undefined reference to `____ilog2_NaN'
dvb-frontends/zl10353.c:138: undefined reference to `__aeabi_uldivmod'
ERROR: "____ilog2_NaN" [drivers/media/dvb-frontends/zl10353.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "__aeabi_uldivmod" [drivers/media/dvb-frontends/zl10353.ko] undefined!

This patch avoids the problem by changing __trace_if() to check
whether the condition is known at compile-time to be nonzero, rather
than checking whether it is actually a constant.

I see this one link error in roughly one out of 1600 randconfig builds
on ARM, and the patch fixes all known instances.
