commit b4e00444cab4c3f3fec876dc0cccc8cbb0d1a948 upstream.

current-&gt;group_leader-&gt;exit_signal may change during copy_process() if
current-&gt;real_parent exits.

Move the assignment inside tasklist_lock to avoid the race.

commit 726b3d3f141fba6f841d715fc4d8a4a84f02c02a upstream.

When an interrupt or NMI comes in and switches the context, there's a delay
from when the preempt_count() shows the update. As the preempt_count() is
used to detect recursion having each context have its own bit get set when
tracing starts, and if that bit is already set, it is considered a recursion
and the function exits. But if this happens in that section where context
has changed but preempt_count() has not been updated, this will be
incorrectly flagged as a recursion.

To handle this case, create another bit call TRANSITION and test it if the
current context bit is already set. Flag the call as a recursion if the
TRANSITION bit is already set, and if not, set it and continue. The
TRANSITION bit will be cleared normally on the return of the function that
set it, or if the current context bit is clear, set it and clear the
TRANSITION bit to allow for another transition between the current context
and an even higher one.

commit ee11b93f95eabdf8198edd4668bf9102e7248270 upstream.

The code that checks recursion will work to only do the recursion check once
if there's nested checks. The top one will do the check, the other nested
checks will see recursion was already checked and return zero for its "bit".
On the return side, nothing will be done if the "bit" is zero.

The problem is that zero is returned for the "good" bit when in NMI context.
This will set the bit for NMIs making it look like *all* NMI tracing is
recursing, and prevent tracing of anything in NMI context!

The simple fix is to return "bit + 1" and subtract that bit on the end to
get the real bit.

[ Upstream commit b18b099e04f450cdc77bec72acefcde7042bd1f3 ]

On my system the kernel processes the "kgdb_earlycon" parameter before
the "kgdbcon" parameter.  When we setup "kgdb_earlycon" we'll end up
in kgdb_register_callbacks() and "kgdb_use_con" won't have been set
yet so we'll never get around to starting "kgdbcon".  Let's remedy
this by detecting that the IO module was already registered when
setting "kgdb_use_con" and registering the console then.

As part of this, to avoid pre-declaring things, move the handling of
the "kgdbcon" further down in the file.

gendisk itself.

[ Upstream commit d081a6e353168f15e63eb9e9334757f20343319f ]

Currently using forward search doesn't handle multi-line strings correctly.
The search routine replaces line breaks with \0 during the search and, for
regular searches ("help | grep Common\n"), there is code after the line
has been discarded or printed to replace the break character.

However during a pager search ("help\n" followed by "/Common\n") when the
string is matched we will immediately return to normal output and the code
that should restore the \n becomes unreachable. Fix this by restoring the
replaced character when we disable the search mode and update the comment
accordingly.

commit 4013c1496c49615d90d36b9d513eee8e369778e9 upstream.

Kernel threads intentionally do CLONE_FS in order to follow any changes
that 'init' does to set up the root directory (or cwd).

It is admittedly a bit odd, but it avoids the situation where 'init'
does some extensive setup to initialize the system environment, and then
we execute a usermode helper program, and it uses the original FS setup
from boot time that may be very limited and incomplete.

[ Both Al Viro and Eric Biederman point out that 'pivot_root()' will
  follow the root regardless, since it fixes up other users of root (see
  chroot_fs_refs() for details), but overmounting root and doing a
  chroot() would not. ]

However, Vegard Nossum noticed that the CLONE_FS not only means that we
follow the root and current working directories, it also means we share
umask with whatever init changed it to. That wasn't intentional.

Just reset umask to the original default (0022) before actually starting
the usermode helper program.

This is because the kill_kprobe() calls disarm_kprobe_ftrace() even

commit 3031313eb3d549b7ad6f9fbcc52ba04412e3eb9e upstream.

Commit 0cb2f1372baa ("kprobes: Fix NULL pointer dereference at
kprobe_ftrace_handler") fixed one bug but not completely fixed yet.
If we run a kprobe_module.tc of ftracetest, kernel showed a warning
as below.

[ Upstream commit 48021f98130880dd74286459a1ef48b5e9bc374f ]

If uboot passes a blank string to console_setup then it results in
a trashed memory. Ultimately, the kernel crashes during freeing up
the memory.

This fix checks if there is a blank parameter being
passed to console_setup from uboot. In case it detects that
the console parameter is blank then it doesn't setup the serial
device and it gracefully exits.
