f2fs: sanity check segment count

2017-05-15T07:19:09+00:00

commit b9dd46188edc2f0d1f37328637860bb65a771124 upstream.

F2FS uses 4 bytes to represent block address. As a result, supported
size of disk is 16 TB and it equals to 16 * 1024 * 1024 / 2 segments.

ipv6: reorder ip6_route_dev_notifier after ipv6_dev_notf

2017-05-15T07:19:09+00:00

[ Upstream commit 242d3a49a2a1a71d8eb9f953db1bcaa9d698ce00 ]

For each netns (except init_net), we initialize its null entry
in 3 places:

1) The template itself, as we use kmemdup()
2) Code around dst_init_metrics() in ip6_route_net_init()
3) ip6_route_dev_notify(), which is supposed to initialize it after
   loopback registers

Unfortunately the last one still happens in a wrong order because
we expect to initialize net->ipv6.ip6_null_entry->rt6i_idev to
net->loopback_dev's idev, thus we have to do that after we add
idev to loopback. However, this notifier has priority == 0 same as
ipv6_dev_notf, and ipv6_dev_notf is registered after
ip6_route_dev_notifier so it is called actually after
ip6_route_dev_notifier. This is similar to commit 2f460933f58e
("ipv6: initialize route null entry in addrconf_init()") which
fixes init_net.

Fix it by picking a smaller priority for ip6_route_dev_notifier.
Also, we have to release the refcnt accordingly when unregistering
loopback_dev because device exit functions are called before subsys
exit functions.

ipv6: initialize route null entry in addrconf_init()

2017-05-15T07:19:08+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2f460933f58eee3393aba64f0f6d14acb08d1724 ]

Andrey reported a crash on init_net.ipv6.ip6_null_entry->rt6i_idev
since it is always NULL.

This is clearly wrong, we have code to initialize it to loopback_dev,
unfortunately the order is still not correct.

loopback_dev is registered very early during boot, we lose a chance
to re-initialize it in notifier. addrconf_init() is called after
ip6_route_init(), which means we have no chance to correct it.

Fix it by moving this initialization explicitly after
ipv6_add_dev(init_net.loopback_dev) in addrconf_init().

mtd: cfi: reduce stack size

2017-05-15T07:19:03+00:00

commit d09957fbb4d0b059b3176b510540df69048ad170 upstream.

The cfi_staa_write_buffers function uses a large amount of kernel stack
whenever CONFIG_MTD_MAP_BANK_WIDTH_32 is set, and that results in a
warning on ARM allmodconfig builds:

drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0020.c: In function 'cfi_staa_write_buffers':
drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0020.c:651:1: warning: the frame size of 1208 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

It turns out that this is largely a result of a suboptimal implementation
of map_word_andequal(). Replacing this function with a straightforward
one reduces the stack size in this function by exactly 200 bytes,
shrinks the .text segment for this file from 27648 bytes to 26608 bytes,
and makes the warning go away.

cpumask_set_cpu_local_first => cpumask_local_spread, lament

2017-05-08T05:44:12+00:00

commit f36963c9d3f6f415732710da3acdd8608a9fa0e5 upstream.

da91309e0a7e (cpumask: Utility function to set n'th cpu...) created a
genuinely weird function.  I never saw it before, it went through DaveM.
(He only does this to make us other maintainers feel better about our own
mistakes.)

cpumask_set_cpu_local_first's purpose is say "I need to spread things
across N online cpus, choose the ones on this numa node first"; you call
it in a loop.

It can fail.  One of the two callers ignores this, the other aborts and
fails the device open.

It can fail in two ways: allocating the off-stack cpumask, or through a
convoluted codepath which AFAICT can only occur if cpu_online_mask
changes.  Which shouldn't happen, because if cpu_online_mask can change
while you call this, it could return a now-offline cpu anyway.

It contains a nonsensical test "!cpumask_of_node(numa_node)".  This was
drawn to my attention by Geert, who said this causes a warning on Sparc.
It sets a single bit in a cpumask instead of returning a cpu number,
because that's what the callers want.

It could be made more efficient by passing the previous cpu rather than
an index, but that would be more invasive to the callers.

[backporting for 3.18: only two callers exist, otherwise no change.
 The same warning shows up for "!cpumask_of_node()", and I thought
 about just addressing the warning, but using the whole fix seemed
 better in the end as one of the two callers also lacks the error
 handling]

posix_acl: Clear SGID bit when setting file permissions

2017-05-08T05:44:10+00:00

commit 073931017b49d9458aa351605b43a7e34598caef upstream.

When file permissions are modified via chmod(2) and the user is not in
the owning group or capable of CAP_FSETID, the setgid bit is cleared in
inode_change_ok().  Setting a POSIX ACL via setxattr(2) sets the file
permissions as well as the new ACL, but doesn't clear the setgid bit in
a similar way; this allows to bypass the check in chmod(2).  Fix that.

perf: Tighten (and fix) the grouping condition

2017-05-08T05:44:10+00:00

commit c3c87e770458aa004bd7ed3f29945ff436fd6511 upstream.

The fix from 9fc81d87420d ("perf: Fix events installation during
moving group") was incomplete in that it failed to recognise that
creating a group with events for different CPUs is semantically
broken -- they cannot be co-scheduled.

Furthermore, it leads to real breakage where, when we create an event
for CPU Y and then migrate it to form a group on CPU X, the code gets
confused where the counter is programmed -- triggered in practice
as well by me via the perf fuzzer.

Fix this by tightening the rules for creating groups. Only allow
grouping of counters that can be co-scheduled in the same context.
This means for the same task and/or the same cpu.

cred/userns: define current_user_ns() as a function

2017-05-08T05:44:10+00:00

commit 0335695dfa4df01edff5bb102b9a82a0668ee51e upstream.

The current_user_ns() macro currently returns &init_user_ns when user
namespaces are disabled, and that causes several warnings when building
with gcc-6.0 in code that compares the result of the macro to
&init_user_ns itself:

  fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl.c: In function 'xfs_ioctl_setattr_check_projid':
  fs/xfs/xfs_ioctl.c:1249:22: error: self-comparison always evaluates to true [-Werror=tautological-compare]
    if (current_user_ns() == &init_user_ns)

This is a legitimate warning in principle, but here it isn't really
helpful, so I'm reprasing the definition in a way that shuts up the
warning.  Apparently gcc only warns when comparing identical literals,
but it can figure out that the result of an inline function can be
identical to a constant expression in order to optimize a condition yet
not warn about the fact that the condition is known at compile time.
This is exactly what we want here, and it looks reasonable because we
generally prefer inline functions over macros anyway.

mtd: avoid stack overflow in MTD CFI code

2017-05-08T05:44:09+00:00

commit fddcca5107051adf9e4481d2a79ae0616577fd2c upstream.

When map_word gets too large, we use a lot of kernel stack, and for
MTD_MAP_BANK_WIDTH_32, this means we use more than the recommended
1024 bytes in a number of functions:

drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0020.c: In function 'cfi_staa_write_buffers':
drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0020.c:651:1: warning: the frame size of 1336 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0020.c: In function 'cfi_staa_erase_varsize':
drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0020.c:972:1: warning: the frame size of 1208 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0001.c: In function 'do_write_buffer':
drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0001.c:1835:1: warning: the frame size of 1240 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

This can be avoided if all operations on the map word are done
indirectly and the stack gets reused between the calls. We can
mostly achieve this by selecting MTD_COMPLEX_MAPPINGS whenever
MTD_MAP_BANK_WIDTH_32 is set, but for the case that no other
bank width is enabled, we also need to use a non-constant
map_bankwidth() to convince the compiler to use less stack.

Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann 
[Brian: this patch mostly achieves its goal by forcing
    MTD_COMPLEX_MAPPINGS (and the accompanying indirection) for 256-bit
    mappings; the rest of the change is mostly a wash, though it helps
    reduce stack size slightly. If we really care about supporting
    256-bit mappings though, we should consider rewriting some of this
    code to avoid keeping and assigning so many 256-bit objects on the
    stack.]

perf: Avoid horrible stack usage

2017-04-30T03:49:15+00:00

commit 86038c5ea81b519a8a1fcfcd5e4599aab0cdd119 upstream.

Both Linus (most recent) and Steve (a while ago) reported that perf
related callbacks have massive stack bloat.

The problem is that software events need a pt_regs in order to
properly report the event location and unwind stack. And because we
could not assume one was present we allocated one on stack and filled
it with minimal bits required for operation.

Now, pt_regs is quite large, so this is undesirable. Furthermore it
turns out that most sites actually have a pt_regs pointer available,
making this even more onerous, as the stack space is pointless waste.

This patch addresses the problem by observing that software events
have well defined nesting semantics, therefore we can use static
per-cpu storage instead of on-stack.

Linus made the further observation that all but the scheduler callers
of perf_sw_event() have a pt_regs available, so we change the regular
perf_sw_event() to require a valid pt_regs (where it used to be
optional) and add perf_sw_event_sched() for the scheduler.

We have a scheduler specific call instead of a more generic _noregs()
like construct because we can assume non-recursion from the scheduler
and thereby simplify the code further (_noregs would have to put the
recursion context call inline in order to assertain which __perf_regs
element to use).

One last note on the implementation of perf_trace_buf_prepare(); we
allow .regs = NULL for those cases where we already have a pt_regs
pointer available and do not need another.
