give up on gcc ilog2() constant optimizations

2017-04-22T05:15:07+00:00

commit 474c90156c8dcc2fa815e6716cc9394d7930cb9c upstream. gcc-7 has an "optimization" pass that completely screws up, and generates the code expansion for the (impossible) case of calling ilog2() with a zero constant, even when the code gcc compiles does not actually have a zero constant. And we try to generate a compile-time error for anybody doing ilog2() on a constant where that doesn't make sense (be it zero or negative). So now gcc7 will fail the build due to our sanity checking, because it created that constant-zero case that didn't actually exist in the source code. There's a whole long discussion on the kernel mailing about how to work around this gcc bug. The gcc people themselevs have discussed their "feature" in https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=72785 but it's all water under the bridge, because while it looked at one point like it would be solved by the time gcc7 was released, that was not to be. So now we have to deal with this compiler braindamage. And the only simple approach seems to be to just delete the code that tries to warn about bad uses of ilog2(). So now "ilog2()" will just return 0 not just for the value 1, but for any non-positive value too. It's not like I can recall anybody having ever actually tried to use this function on any invalid value, but maybe the sanity check just meant that such code never made it out in public.

KVM: kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev() should never fail

2017-04-22T05:15:03+00:00

commit 90db10434b163e46da413d34db8d0e77404cc645 upstream. No caller currently checks the return value of kvm_io_bus_unregister_dev(). This is evil, as all callers silently go on freeing their device. A stale reference will remain in the io_bus, getting at least used again, when the iobus gets teared down on kvm_destroy_vm() - leading to use after free errors. There is nothing the callers could do, except retrying over and over again. So let's simply remove the bus altogether, print an error and make sure no one can access this broken bus again (returning -ENOMEM on any attempt to access it).

usb-core: Add LINEAR_FRAME_INTR_BINTERVAL USB quirk

2017-04-18T05:55:53+00:00

commit 3243367b209faed5c320a4e5f9a565ee2a2ba958 upstream. Some USB 2.0 devices erroneously report millisecond values in bInterval. The generic config code manages to catch most of them, but in some cases it's not completely enough. The case at stake here is a USB 2.0 braille device, which wants to announce 10ms and thus sets bInterval to 10, but with the USB 2.0 computation that yields to 64ms. It happens that one can type fast enough to reach this interval and get the device buffers overflown, leading to problematic latencies. The generic config code does not catch this case because the 64ms is considered a sane enough value. This change thus adds a USB_QUIRK_LINEAR_FRAME_INTR_BINTERVAL quirk to mark devices which actually report milliseconds in bInterval, and marks Vario Ultra devices as needing it.

ipmr, ip6mr: fix scheduling while atomic and a deadlock with ipmr_get_route

2017-04-18T05:55:46+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2cf750704bb6d7ed8c7d732e071dd1bc890ea5e8 ] Since the commit below the ipmr/ip6mr rtnl_unicast() code uses the portid instead of the previous dst_pid which was copied from in_skb's portid. Since the skb is new the portid is 0 at that point so the packets are sent to the kernel and we get scheduling while atomic or a deadlock (depending on where it happens) by trying to acquire rtnl two times. Also since this is RTM_GETROUTE, it can be triggered by a normal user. Here's the sleeping while atomic trace: [ 7858.212557] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:620 [ 7858.212748] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 0, name: swapper/0 [ 7858.212881] 2 locks held by swapper/0/0: [ 7858.213013] #0: (((&mrt->ipmr_expire_timer))){+.-...}, at: [] call_timer_fn+0x5/0x350 [ 7858.213422] #1: (mfc_unres_lock){+.....}, at: [] ipmr_expire_process+0x25/0x130 [ 7858.213807] CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.8.0-rc7+ #179 [ 7858.213934] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.7.5-20140531_083030-gandalf 04/01/2014 [ 7858.214108] 0000000000000000 ffff88005b403c50 ffffffff813a7804 0000000000000000 [ 7858.214412] ffffffff81a1338e ffff88005b403c78 ffffffff810a4a72 ffffffff81a1338e [ 7858.214716] 000000000000026c 0000000000000000 ffff88005b403ca8 ffffffff810a4b9f [ 7858.215251] Call Trace: [ 7858.215412] [] dump_stack+0x85/0xc1 [ 7858.215662] [] ___might_sleep+0x192/0x250 [ 7858.215868] [] __might_sleep+0x6f/0x100 [ 7858.216072] [] mutex_lock_nested+0x33/0x4d0 [ 7858.216279] [] ? netlink_lookup+0x25f/0x460 [ 7858.216487] [] rtnetlink_rcv+0x1b/0x40 [ 7858.216687] [] netlink_unicast+0x19c/0x260 [ 7858.216900] [] rtnl_unicast+0x20/0x30 [ 7858.217128] [] ipmr_destroy_unres+0xa9/0xf0 [ 7858.217351] [] ipmr_expire_process+0x8f/0x130 [ 7858.217581] [] ? ipmr_net_init+0x180/0x180 [ 7858.217785] [] ? ipmr_net_init+0x180/0x180 [ 7858.217990] [] call_timer_fn+0xa5/0x350 [ 7858.218192] [] ? call_timer_fn+0x5/0x350 [ 7858.218415] [] ? ipmr_net_init+0x180/0x180 [ 7858.218656] [] run_timer_softirq+0x260/0x640 [ 7858.218865] [] ? __do_softirq+0xbb/0x54f [ 7858.219068] [] __do_softirq+0xe8/0x54f [ 7858.219269] [] irq_exit+0xb8/0xc0 [ 7858.219463] [] smp_apic_timer_interrupt+0x42/0x50 [ 7858.219678] [] apic_timer_interrupt+0x8c/0xa0 [ 7858.219897] [] ? native_safe_halt+0x6/0x10 [ 7858.220165] [] ? trace_hardirqs_on+0xd/0x10 [ 7858.220373] [] default_idle+0x23/0x190 [ 7858.220574] [] arch_cpu_idle+0xf/0x20 [ 7858.220790] [] default_idle_call+0x4c/0x60 [ 7858.221016] [] cpu_startup_entry+0x39b/0x4d0 [ 7858.221257] [] rest_init+0x135/0x140 [ 7858.221469] [] start_kernel+0x50e/0x51b [ 7858.221670] [] ? early_idt_handler_array+0x120/0x120 [ 7858.221894] [] x86_64_start_reservations+0x2a/0x2c [ 7858.222113] [] x86_64_start_kernel+0x13b/0x14a Fixes: 2942e9005056 ("[RTNETLINK]: Use rtnl_unicast() for rtnetlink unicasts") Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov Signed-off-by: David S.

can: Fix kernel panic at security_sock_rcv_skb

[ Upstream commit f1712c73714088a7252d276a57126d56c7d37e64 ] Zhang Yanmin reported crashes [1] and provided a patch adding a synchronize_rcu() call in can_rx_unregister() The main problem seems that the sockets themselves are not RCU protected.

commit 5f74f82ea34c0da80ea0b49192bb5ea06e063593 upstream. Devices may have limits on the number of fragments in an skb they support. Current codebase uses a constant as maximum for number of fragments one skb can hold and use. When enabling scatter/gather and running traffic with many small messages the codebase uses the maximum number of fragments and may thereby violate the max for certain devices. The patch introduces a global variable as max number of fragments. Signed-off-by: Hans Westgaard Ry Reviewed-by: Håkon Bugge Acked-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.

blk: rq_data_dir() should not return a boolean

2017-02-08T08:43:05+00:00

commit 10fbd36e362a0f367e34a7cd876a81295d8fc5ca upstream. rq_data_dir() returns either READ or WRITE (0 == READ, 1 == WRITE), not a boolean value. Now, admittedly the "!= 0" doesn't really change the value (0 stays as zero, 1 stays as one), but it's not only redundant, it confuses gcc, and causes gcc to warn about the construct switch (rq_data_dir(req)) { case READ: ... case WRITE: ... that we have in a few drivers. Now, the gcc warning is silly and stupid (it seems to warn not about the switch value having a different type from the case statements, but about _any_ boolean switch value), but in this case the code itself is silly and stupid too, so let's just change it, and get rid of warnings like this: drivers/block/hd.c: In function ‘hd_request’: drivers/block/hd.c:630:11: warning: switch condition has boolean value [-Wswitch-bool] switch (rq_data_dir(req)) { The odd '!= 0' came in when "cmd_flags" got turned into a "u64" in commit 5953316dbf90 ("block: make rq->cmd_flags be 64-bit") and is presumably because the old code (that just did a logical 'and' with 1) would then end up making the type of rq_data_dir() be u64 too. But if we want to retain the old regular integer type, let's just cast the result to 'int' rather than use that rather odd '!= 0'. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
