If ecryptfs_readlink_lower() fails, buf remains an uninitialized pointer and passing it nd_set_link() won't do anything good. Fixed by switching ecryptfs_readlink_lower() to saner API - make it return buf or ERR_PTR(...) and update callers. Signed-off-by:

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) The value choosen for the new SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option on parisc was very poorly choosen, let's fix it while we still can. From Eric Dumazet. 2) Our generic reciprocal divide was found to handle some edge cases incorrectly, part of this is encoded into the BPF as deep as the JIT engines themselves. Just use a real divide throughout for now. From Eric Dumazet. 3) Because the initial lookup is lockless, the TCP metrics engine can end up creating two entries for the same lookup key. Fix this by doing a second lookup under the lock before we actually create the new entry. From Christoph Paasch. 4) Fix scatter-gather list init in usbnet driver, from Bjørn Mork. 5) Fix unintended 32-bit truncation in cxgb4 driver's bit shifting.

Fix from Neal Cardwell. 7) Fix netlink memory leak in ieee802154_add_iface(), from Christian Engelmayer. 8) Multicast forwarding in ipv4 can overflow the per-rule reference counts, causing all multicast traffic to cease.

The s390 bpf jit compiler emits the signed divide instructions "dr" and "d" for unsigned divisions. This can cause problems: the dividend will be zero extended to a 64 bit value and the divisor is the 32 bit signed value as specified A or X accumulator, even though A and X are supposed to be treated as unsigned values. The divide instrunctions will generate an exception if the result cannot be expressed with a 32 bit signed value. This is the case if e.g. the dividend is 0xffffffff and the divisor either 1 or also 0xffffffff (signed: -1). To avoid all these issues simply use unsigned divide instructions. Signed-off-by:

Additionally this code now has a race condition. Replace it with a much simpler variant, which just scans the address list when duplicate address detection completes, to check if this is the first valid link local address and send RS and MLD reports then.

Because the tcp-metrics is an RCU-list, it may be that two soft-interrupts are inside __tcp_get_metrics() for the same destination-IP at the same time. If this destination-IP is not yet part of the tcp-metrics, both soft-interrupts will end up in tcpm_new and create a new entry for this IP. So, we will have two tcp-metrics with the same destination-IP in the list. This patch checks twice __tcp_get_metrics(). First without holding the lock, then while holding the lock. The second one is there to confirm that the entry has not been added by another soft-irq while waiting for the spin-lock. Fixes: 51c5d0c4 (tcp: Maintain dynamic metrics in local cache.)

On AMD family 10h we see following error messages while waking up from S3 for all non-boot CPUs leading to a failed IBS initialization: Enabling non-boot CPUs ... smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 1 APIC 0x1 [Firmware Bug]: cpu 1, try to use APIC500 (LVT offset 0) for vector 0x400, but the register is already in use for vector 0xf9 on another cpu perf: IBS APIC setup failed on cpu #1 process: Switch to broadcast mode on CPU1 CPU1 is up ... ACPI: Waking up from system sleep state S3 Reason for this is that during suspend the LVT offset for the IBS vector gets lost and needs to be reinialized while resuming. The offset is read from the IBSCTL msr. On family 10h the offset needs to be 1 as offset 0 is used for the MCE threshold interrupt, but firmware assings it for IBS to 0 too. The kernel needs to reprogram the vector. The msr is a readonly node msr, but a new value can be written via pci config space access. The reinitialization is implemented for family 10h in setup_ibs_ctl() which is forced during IBS setup. This patch fixes IBS setup after waking up from S3 by adding resume/supend hooks for the boot cpu which does the offset reinitialization. Marking it as stable to let distros pick up this fix.

The bnx2x driver in its pci shutdown() callback releases its pci bars (in the same manner it does during its pci remove() callback). During a system reboot while VFs are enabled, its possible for the VF's remove to be called (as a result of pci_disable_sriov()) after its shutdown callback has already finished running; This will cause a paging request fault as the VF tries to access the pci bar which it has previously released, crashing the system. This patch further differentiates the shutdown and remove callbacks, preventing the pci release procedures from being called during shutdown. Signed-off-by:

__percpu_counter_add() may be called in softirq/hardirq handler (such as, blk_mq_queue_exit() is typically called in hardirq/softirq handler), so we need to call this_cpu_add()(irq safe helper) to update percpu counter, otherwise counts may be lost. This fixes the problem that 'rmmod null_blk' hangs in blk_cleanup_queue() because of miscounting of request_queue->mq_usage_counter. This patch is the v1 of previous one of "lib/percpu_counter.c: disable local irq when updating percpu couter", and takes Andrew's approach which may be more efficient for ARCHs(x86, s390) that have optimized this_cpu_add().
