vfs: move permission checking into notify_change() for utimes(NULL)

2016-10-22T10:40:26+00:00

commit f2b20f6ee842313a0d681dbbf7f87b70291a6a3b upstream.

This fixes a bug where the permission was not properly checked in
overlayfs.  The testcase is ltp/utimensat01.

It is also cleaner and safer to do the permission checking in the vfs
helper instead of the caller.

This patch introduces an additional ia_valid flag ATTR_TOUCH (since
touch(1) is the most obvious user of utimes(NULL)) that is passed into
notify_change whenever the conditions for this special permission checking
mode are met.

ipc/sem.c: fix complex_count vs. simple op race

2016-10-22T10:40:24+00:00

commit 5864a2fd3088db73d47942370d0f7210a807b9bc upstream.

Commit 6d07b68ce16a ("ipc/sem.c: optimize sem_lock()") introduced a
race:

sem_lock has a fast path that allows parallel simple operations.
There are two reasons why a simple operation cannot run in parallel:
 - a non-simple operations is ongoing (sma->sem_perm.lock held)
 - a complex operation is sleeping (sma->complex_count != 0)

As both facts are stored independently, a thread can bypass the current
checks by sleeping in the right positions.  See below for more details
(or kernel bugzilla 105651).

The patch fixes that by creating one variable (complex_mode)
that tracks both reasons why parallel operations are not possible.

The patch also updates stale documentation regarding the locking.

With regards to stable kernels:
The patch is required for all kernels that include the
commit 6d07b68ce16a ("ipc/sem.c: optimize sem_lock()") (3.10?)

The alternative is to revert the patch that introduced the race.

The patch is safe for backporting, i.e. it makes no assumptions
about memory barriers in spin_unlock_wait().

Background:
Here is the race of the current implementation:

Thread A: (simple op)
- does the first "sma->complex_count == 0" test

Thread B: (complex op)
- does sem_lock(): This includes an array scan. But the scan can't
  find Thread A, because Thread A does not own sem->lock yet.
- the thread does the operation, increases complex_count,
  drops sem_lock, sleeps

Thread A:
- spin_lock(&sem->lock), spin_is_locked(sma->sem_perm.lock)
- sleeps before the complex_count test

Thread C: (complex op)
- does sem_lock (no array scan, complex_count==1)
- wakes up Thread B.
- decrements complex_count

Thread A:
- does the complex_count test

Bug:
Now both thread A and thread C operate on the same array, without
any synchronization.

This is a long-standing bug in the way shadow entries are accounted in
the radix tree nodes. The shrinker needs to know when radix tree nodes
contain only shadow entries, no pages, so node->count is split in half
to count shadows in the upper bits and pages in the lower bits.

Unfortunately, the radix tree implementation doesn't know of this and
assumes all entries are in node->count. When there is a shadow entry
directly in root->rnode and the tree is later extended, the radix tree
implementation will copy that entry into the new node and and bump its
node->count, i.e. increases the page count bits. Once the shadow gets
removed and we subtract from the upper counter, node->count underflows
and triggers the warning. Afterwards, without node->count reaching 0
again, the radix tree node is leaked.

Limit shadow entries to when we have actual radix tree nodes and can
count them properly. That means we lose the ability to detect refaults
from files that had only the first page faulted in at eviction time.

Btrfs: catch invalid free space trees

2016-10-22T10:40:22+00:00

commit 6675df311db87aa2107a04ef97e19420953cbace upstream.

There are two separate issues that can lead to corrupted free space
trees.

1. The free space tree bitmaps had an endianness issue on big-endian
   systems which is fixed by an earlier patch in this series.
2. btrfs-progs before v4.7.3 modified filesystems without updating the
   free space tree.

To catch both of these issues at once, we need to force the free space
tree to be rebuilt. To do so, add a FREE_SPACE_TREE_VALID compat_ro bit.
If the bit isn't set, we know that it was either produced by a broken
big-endian kernel or may have been corrupted by btrfs-progs.

This also provides us with a way to add rudimentary read-write support
for the free space tree to btrfs-progs: it can just clear this bit and
have the kernel rebuild the free space tree.

debugfs: introduce a public file_operations accessor

2016-10-22T10:40:21+00:00

commit 86f0e06767dda7863d6d2a8f0b3b857e6ea876a0 upstream.

This patch introduces an accessor which can be used
by the users of debugfs (drivers, fs, ...) to get the
original file_operations struct. It also removes the
REAL_FOPS_DEREF macro in file.c and converts the code
to use the public version.

Previously, REAL_FOPS_DEREF was only available within
the file.c of debugfs. But having a public getter
available for debugfs users is important as some
drivers (carl9170 and b43) use the pointer of the
original file_operations in conjunction with container_of()
within their debugfs implementations.

mm: remove gup_flags FOLL_WRITE games from __get_user_pages()

2016-10-20T08:03:30+00:00

commit 19be0eaffa3ac7d8eb6784ad9bdbc7d67ed8e619 upstream.

This is an ancient bug that was actually attempted to be fixed once
(badly) by me eleven years ago in commit 4ceb5db9757a ("Fix
get_user_pages() race for write access") but that was then undone due to
problems on s390 by commit f33ea7f404e5 ("fix get_user_pages bug").

In the meantime, the s390 situation has long been fixed, and we can now
fix it by checking the pte_dirty() bit properly (and do it better).  The
s390 dirty bit was implemented in abf09bed3cce ("s390/mm: implement
software dirty bits") which made it into v3.9.  Earlier kernels will
have to look at the page state itself.

Also, the VM has become more scalable, and what used a purely
theoretical race back then has become easier to trigger.

To fix it, we introduce a new internal FOLL_COW flag to mark the "yes,
we already did a COW" rather than play racy games with FOLL_WRITE that
is very fundamental, and then use the pte dirty flag to validate that
the FOLL_COW flag is still valid.

v4l: rcar-fcp: Don't force users to check for disabled FCP support

2016-10-20T08:03:30+00:00

commit fd44aa9a254b18176ec3792a18e7de6977030ca8 upstream.

The rcar_fcp_enable() function immediately returns successfully when the
FCP device pointer is NULL to avoid forcing the users to check the FCP
device manually before every call. However, the stub version of the
function used when the FCP driver is disabled returns -ENOSYS
unconditionally, resulting in a different API contract for the two
versions of the function.

As a user that requires FCP support will fail at probe time when calling
rcar_fcp_get() if the FCP driver is disabled, the stub version of the
rcar_fcp_enable() function will only be called with a NULL FCP device.
We can thus return 0 unconditionally to align the behaviour with the
normal version of the function.

set_bit() and clear_bit() take the bit number so this code is really

consistently so it won't cause a problem unless "irq" is more than 4.

Using BUG_ON() as an assert() is _never_ acceptable

2016-10-07T13:03:20+00:00

commit 21f54ddae449f4bdd9f1498124901d67202243d9 upstream.

That just generally kills the machine, and makes debugging only much
harder, since the traces may long be gone.

Debugging by assert() is a disease.  Don't do it.  If you can continue,
you're much better off doing so with a live machine where you have a
much higher chance that the report actually makes it to the system logs,
rather than result in a machine that is just completely dead.

The only valid situation for BUG_ON() is when continuing is not an
option, because there is massive corruption.  But if you are just
verifying that something is true, you warn about your broken assumptions
(preferably just once), and limp on.
