Fix a bug in kprobes which can modify kernel code
permanently at run-time. In the result, kernel can
crash when it executes the modified code.
This bug can happen when we put two probes enough near
and the first probe is optimized. When the second probe
is set up, it copies a byte which is already modified
by the first probe, and executes it when the probe is hit.
Even worse, the first probe and the second probe are removed
respectively, the second probe writes back the copied
(modified) instruction.
To fix this bug, kprobes always recovers the original
code and copies the first byte from recovered instruction.

Current probed-instruction recovery expects that only breakpoint
instruction modifies instruction. However, since kprobes jump
optimization can replace original instructions with a jump,
that expectation is not enough. And it may cause instruction
decoding failure on the function where an optimized probe
already exists.
This bug can reproduce easily as below:
1) find a target function address (any kprobe-able function is OK)
$ grep __secure_computing /proc/kallsyms
ffffffff810c19d0 T __secure_computing
2) decode the function
$ objdump -d vmlinux --start-address=0xffffffff810c19d0 --stop-address=0xffffffff810c19eb
vmlinux: file format elf64-x86-64
Disassembly of section .text:
ffffffff810c19d0 <__secure_computing>:
ffffffff810c19d0: 55 push %rbp
ffffffff810c19d1: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
ffffffff810c19d4: e8 67 8f 72 00 callq

ffffffff810c19e2: 83 b8 88 05 00 00 01 cmpl $0x1,0x588(%rax)
ffffffff810c19e9: 74 05 je ffffffff810c19f0 <__secure_computing+0x20>
3) put a kprobe-event at an optimize-able place, where no
call/jump places within the 5 bytes.
$ su -
# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
# echo p __secure_computing+0x9 > kprobe_events
4) enable it and check it is optimized.
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/p___secure_computing_9/enable
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c19d9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
5) put another kprobe on an instruction after previous probe in
the same function.
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
# dmesg | tail -n 1
[ 1666.500016] Probing address(0xffffffff810c19e2) is not an instruction boundary.
6) however, if the kprobes optimization is disabled, it works.
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/debug/kprobes-optimization
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c19d9 k __secure_computing+0x9
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
(no error)
This is because kprobes doesn't recover the instruction
which is overwritten with a relative jump by another kprobe
when finding instruction boundary.
It only recovers the breakpoint instruction.
This patch fixes kprobes to recover such instructions.
With this fix:
# echo p __secure_computing+0x9 > kprobe_events
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/p___secure_computing_9/enable
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c1aa9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
# echo p __secure_computing+0x12 >> kprobe_events
# cat ../kprobes/list
ffffffff810c1aa9 k __secure_computing+0x9 [OPTIMIZED]
ffffffff810c1ab2 k __secure_computing+0x12 [DISABLED]
Changes in v4:
- Fix a bug to ensure optimized probe is really optimized
by jump.
- Remove kprobe_optready() dependency.
- Cleanup code for preparing optprobe separation.
Changes in v3:
- Fix a build error when CONFIG_OPTPROBE=n. (Thanks, Ingo!)
To fix the error, split optprobe instruction recovering
path from kprobes path.
- Cleanup comments/styles.
Changes in v2:
- Fix a bug to recover original instruction address in
RIP-relative instruction fixup.
- Moved on tip/master.

If perf_evsel__open() failed, the errno was set and returned properly.
However since the perf_evlist__open() called close() on fd's for all of
evsel x cpu x thread after the failure, the errno was overridden by
other code (EBADF). So the caller of the function ended up seeing
different error message and getting confused.
Fit it by restoring original return value. Because one of caller of the
function is in the python extension, and it uses system errno
internally, it'd be better restoring the original value rather than
using the return value of the function directly, IMHO (i.e. I'm not a
python expert :)

Just fall back to resetting those fields, if set, warning the user that
that feature is not available.
If guest samples appear they will just be discarded because no struct
machine will be found and thus the event will be accounted as not
handled and dropped, see 0c09571.

Setting perf_guest to true by default makes no sense because the perf
subcommands can not setup guest symbol information and thus not process
and guest samples. The only exception is perf-kvm which changes the
perf_guest value on its own. So change the default for perf_guest back
to false.

It turned out that a performance counter on AMD does not
count at all when the GO or HO bit is set in the control
register and SVM is disabled in EFER.
This patch works around this issue by masking out the HO bit
in the performance counter control register when SVM is not
enabled.
The GO bit is not touched because it is only set when the
user wants to count in guest-mode only. So when SVM is
disabled the counter should not run at all and the
not-counting is the intended behaviour.

without DWARF info too
The 'perf probe' command allows kprobe to be inserted at any offset from
a function start, which results in adding kprobes to unintended
location. (example: perf probe do_fork+10000 is allowed even though
size of do_fork is ~904).
My previous patch https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/24/42 addressed the case
where DWARF info was available for the kernel. This patch fixes the
case where perf probe is used on a kernel without debuginfo available.

If threads in a multi-threaded process have names shorter than the main
thread the comm for the named threads is not properly terminated.
E.g., for the process 'namedthreads' where each thread is named noploop%d
where %d is the thread number:
Before:
perf script -f comm,tid,ip,sym,dso
noploop:4ads 21616 400a49 noploop (/tmp/namedthreads)
The 'ads' in the thread comm bleeds over from the process name.
After:
perf script -f comm,tid,ip,sym,dso
noploop:4 21616 400a49 noploop (/tmp/namedthreads)

On old kernels that don't support sample_id_all feature,
perf_evlist__id2evsel() returns NULL for non-sampling events.
This breaks perf top when multiple events are given on command line. Fix
it by using first evsel in the evlist. This will also prevent getting
the same (potential) problem in such new tool/ old kernel combo.

commit e49ce14150c64b29a8dd211df785576fa19a9858 breaks cross compiling
the linux kernel on darwin hosts.
This fix introduce some minimal glue to adopt linker section handling
for darwin hosts.

1) ICMP sockets leave err uninitialized but we try to return it for the
unsupported MSG_OOB case, reported by Dave Jones.
2) Add new Zaurus device ID entries, from Dave Jones.
3) Pointer calculation in hso driver memset is wrong, from Dan
Carpenter.
4) ks8851_probe() checks unsigned value as negative, fix also from Dan
Carpenter.
5) Fix crashes in atl1c driver due to TX queue handling, from Eric
Dumazet. I anticipate some TX side locking fixes coming in the near
future for this driver as well.
6) The inline directive fix in Bluetooth which was breaking the build
only with very new versions of GCC, from Johan Hedberg.
7) Fix crashes in the ATP CLIP code due to ARP cleanups this merge
window, reported by Meelis Roos and fixed by Eric Dumazet.
8) JME driver doesn't flush RX FIFO correctly, from Guo-Fu Tseng.
9) Some ip6_route_output() callers test the return value for NULL, but
this never happens as the convention is to return a dst entry with
dst->error set. Fixes from RonQing Li.
10) Logitech Harmony 900 should be handled by zaurus driver not
cdc_ether, update white lists and black lists accordingly. From
Scott Talbert.
11) Receiving from certain kinds of devices there won't be a MAC header,
so there is no MAC header to fixup in the IPSEC code, and if we try
to do it we'll crash. Fix from Eric Dumazet.
12) Port type array indexing off-by-one in mlx4 driver, fix from Yevgeny
Petrilin.
13) Fix regression in link-down handling in davinci_emac which causes
all RX descriptors to be freed up and therefore RX to wedge
completely, from Christian Riesch.
14) It took two attempts, but ctnetlink soft lockups seem to be
cured now, from Pablo Neira Ayuso.
15) Endianness bug fix in ENIC driver, from Santosh Nayak.
16) The long ago conversion of the PPP fragmentation code over to
abstracted SKB list handling wasn't perfect, once we get an
out of sequence SKB we don't flush the rest of them like we
should. From Ben McKeegan.
17) Fix regression of ->ip_summed initialization in sfc driver.
From Ben Hutchings.
18) Bluetooth timeout mistakenly using msecs instead of jiffies,
from Andrzej Kaczmarek.
19) Using _sync variant of work cancellation results in deadlocks,
use the non _sync variants instead. From Andre Guedes.
20) Bluetooth rfcomm code had reference counting problems leading
to crashes, fix from Octavian Purdila.
21) The conversion of netem over to classful qdisc handling added
two bugs to netem_dequeue(), fixes from Eric Dumazet.
22) Missing pci_iounmap() in ATM Solos driver. Fix from Julia Lawall.
23) b44_pci_exit() should not have __exit tag since it's invoked from
non-__exit code. From Nikola Pajkovsky.
24) The conversion of the neighbour hash tables over to RCU added a
race, fixed here by adding the necessary reread of tbl->nht, fix
from Michel Machado.
25) When we added VF (virtual function) attributes for network device
dumps, this potentially bloats up the size of the dump of one
network device such that the dump size is too large for the buffer
allocated by properly written netlink applications.
In particular, if you add 255 VFs to a network device, parts of
GLIBC stop working.
To fix this, we add an attribute that is used to turn on these
extended portions of the network device dump. Sophisticaed
applications like 'ip' that want to see this stuff will be changed
to set the attribute, whereas things like GLIBC that don't care
about VFs simply will not, and therefore won't be busted by the
mere presence of VFs on a network device.
Thanks to the tireless work of Greg Rose on this fix.

The autofs compat handling fix caused a compile failure when
CONFIG_COMPAT isn't defined.
Instead of adding random #ifdef'fery in autofs, let's just make the
compat helpers earlier to use: without CONFIG_COMPAT, is_compat_task()
just hardcodes to zero.
We could probably do something similar for a number of other cases where
we have #ifdef's in code, but this is the low-hanging fruit.

three kbuild fixes for 3.3:
- make deb-pkg symlink race fix.
- make coccicheck fix.
- Dropping the check for modutils. This is not a regression, but
allows the module-init-tools replacement kmod work with the 3.3
kernel.

When the autofs protocol version 5 packet type was added in commit
5c0a32fc2cd0 ("autofs4: add new packet type for v5 communications"), it
obvously tried quite hard to be word-size agnostic, and uses explicitly
sized fields that are all correctly aligned.
However, with the final "char name[NAME_MAX+1]" array at the end, the
actual size of the structure ends up being not very well defined:
because the struct isn't marked 'packed', doing a "sizeof()" on it will
align the size of the struct up to the biggest alignment of the members
it has.
And despite all the members being the same, the alignment of them is
different: a "__u64" has 4-byte alignment on x86-32, but native 8-byte
alignment on x86-64. And while 'NAME_MAX+1' ends up being a nice round
number (256), the name[] array starts out a 4-byte aligned.
End result: the "packed" size of the structure is 300 bytes: 4-byte, but
not 8-byte aligned.
As a result, despite all the fields being in the same place on all
architectures, sizeof() will round up that size to 304 bytes on
architectures that have 8-byte alignment for u64.
Note that this is *not* a problem for 32-bit compat mode on POWER, since
there __u64 is 8-byte aligned even in 32-bit mode. But on x86, 32-bit
and 64-bit alignment is different for 64-bit entities, and as a result
the structure that has exactly the same layout has different sizes.
So on x86-64, but no other architecture, we will just subtract 4 from
the size of the structure when running in a compat task. That way we
will write the properly sized packet that user mode expects.
Not pretty. Sadly, this very subtle, and unnecessary, size difference
has been encoded in user space that wants to read packets of *exactly*
the right size, and will refuse to touch anything else.

When pre-allocating skbs for received packets, we set ip_summed =
CHECKSUM_UNNCESSARY. We used to change it back to CHECKSUM_NONE when
the received packet had an incorrect checksum or unhandled protocol.
Commit bc8acf2c8c3e43fcc192762a9f964b3e9a17748b ('drivers/net: avoid
some skb->ip_summed initializations') mistakenly replaced the latter
assignment with a DEBUG-only assertion that ip_summed ==
CHECKSUM_NONE. This assertion is always false, but it seems no-one
has exercised this code path in a DEBUG build.
Fix this by moving our assignment of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY into
efx_rx_packet_gro().

This patch fixes a (mostly cosmetic) bug introduced by the patch
'ppp: Use SKB queue abstraction interfaces in fragment processing'
found here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg153312.html
The above patch rewrote and moved the code responsible for cleaning
up discarded fragments but the new code does not catch every case
where this is necessary. This results in some discarded fragments
remaining in the queue, and triggering a 'bad seq' error on the
subsequent call to ppp_mp_reconstruct. Fragments are discarded
whenever other fragments of the same frame have been lost.
This can generate a lot of unwanted and misleading log messages.
This patch also adds additional detail to the debug logging to
make it clearer which fragments were lost and which other fragments
were discarded as a result of losses. (Run pppd with 'kdebug 1'
option to enable debug logging.)
