Like the Asus M2A-VM, MSI's K9A2 Platinum (MS-7376) can also support 64bit DMA. It is a new enough board that all the BIOS releases work correctly with 64bit DMA enabled. Signed-off-by:

Rusty, commit 3ca4f5ca virtio: add virtio IDs file moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h does not include virtio_ids.h. This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C files into the header files, making the header files compatible with the old ones. In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace. CC: Fernando Luis Vazquez Cao <fernando@oss.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by:

It seems like the addition of QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT caueses major performance regressions for Fedora users: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=509383 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=505695 while I can't reproduce those extreme regressions myself I think the flag is wrong. Rationale: QUEUE_FLAG_VIRT expands to QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT which casus the queue unplugged immediately. This is not a good behaviour for at least qemu and kvm where we do have significant overhead for every I/O operations. Even with all the latested speeups (native AIO, MSI support, zero copy) we can only get native speed for up to 128kb I/O requests we already are down to 66% of native performance for 4kb requests even on my laptop running the Intel X25-M SSD for which the QUEUE_FLAG_NONROT was designed. If we ever get virtio-blk overhead low enough that this flag makes sense it should only be set based on a feature flag set by the host. Signed-off-by:

This patch fixes a null pointer exception in pipe_rdwr_open() which generates the stack trace: > Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028 RIP: > [<ffffffff802899a5>] pipe_rdwr_open+0x35/0x70 > [<ffffffff8028125c>] __dentry_open+0x13c/0x230 > [<ffffffff8028143d>] do_filp_open+0x2d/0x40 > [<ffffffff802814aa>] do_sys_open+0x5a/0x100 > [<ffffffff8021faf3>] sysenter_do_call+0x1b/0x67 The failure mode is triggered by an attempt to open an anonymous pipe via /proc/pid/fd/* as exemplified by this script: ============================================================= while : ; do { echo y ; sleep 1 ; } | { while read ; do echo z$REPLY; done ; } & PID=$! OUT=$(ps -efl | grep 'sleep 1' | grep -v grep | { read PID REST ; echo $PID; } ) OUT="${OUT%% *}" DELAY=$((RANDOM * 1000 / 32768)) usleep $((DELAY * 1000 + RANDOM % 1000 )) echo n > /proc/$OUT/fd/1 # Trigger defect done ============================================================= Note that the failure window is quite small and I could only reliably reproduce the defect by inserting a small delay in pipe_rdwr_open(). For example: static int pipe_rdwr_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp) { msleep(100); mutex_lock(&inode->i_mutex); Although the defect was observed in pipe_rdwr_open(), I think it makes sense to replicate the change through all the pipe_*_open() functions. The core of the change is to verify that inode->i_pipe has not been released before attempting to manipulate it. If inode->i_pipe is no longer present, return ENOENT to indicate so. The comment about potentially using atomic_t for i_pipe->readers and i_pipe->writers has also been removed because it is no longer relevant in this context. The inode->i_mutex lock must be used so that inode->i_pipe can be dealt with correctly. Signed-off-by:

In ks8851_set_rx_mode() the case handling IFF_MULTICAST was also setting the RXCR1_AE bit by accident. This meant that all unicast frames where being accepted by the device. Remove RXCR1_AE from this case. Note, RXCR1_AE was also masking a problem with setting the MAC address properly, so needs to be applied after fixing the MAC write order. Fixes a bug reported by Doong, Ping of Micrel. This version of the patch avoids setting RXCR1_ME for all cases. Signed-off-by:

When renaming kernel_fpu_using to irq_fpu_usable, the semantics of the function is changed too, from mesuring whether kernel is using FPU, that is, the FPU is NOT available, to measuring whether FPU is usable, that is, the FPU is available. But the usage of irq_fpu_usable in aesni-intel_glue.c is not changed accordingly. This patch fixes this. Signed-off-by:

ipv4/ipv6 setsockopt(IP_MULTICAST_IF) have dubious __dev_get_by_index() calls. This function should be called only with RTNL or dev_base_lock held, or reader could see a corrupt hash chain and eventually enter an endless loop. Fix is to call dev_get_by_index()/dev_put(). If this happens to be performance critical, we could define a new dev_exist_by_index() function to avoid touching dev refcount. Signed-off-by:

Due to driver core changes dev_set_drvdata will call kzalloc which should be in might_sleep context, but hci_conn_add will be called in atomic context Like dev_set_name move dev_set_drvdata to work queue function. oops as following: Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001341] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slqb.c:1546 Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001345] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 2133, name: sdptool Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001348] 2 locks held by sdptool/2133: Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001350] #0: (sk_lock-AF_BLUETOOTH-BTPROTO_L2CAP){+.+.+.}, at: [<faa1d2f5>] lock_sock+0xa/0xc [l2cap] Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001360] #1: (&hdev->lock){+.-.+.}, at: [<faa20e16>] l2cap_sock_connect+0x103/0x26b [l2cap] Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001371] Pid: 2133, comm: sdptool Not tainted 2.6.31-mm1 #2 Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001373] Call Trace: Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001381] [<c022433f>] __might_sleep+0xde/0xe5 Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001386] [<c0298843>] __kmalloc+0x4a/0x15a Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001392] [<c03f0065>] ? kzalloc+0xb/0xd Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001396] [<c03f0065>] kzalloc+0xb/0xd Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001400] [<c03f04ff>] device_private_init+0x15/0x3d Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001405] [<c03f24c5>] dev_set_drvdata+0x18/0x26 Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001414] [<fa51fff7>] hci_conn_init_sysfs+0x40/0xd9 [bluetooth] Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001422] [<fa51cdc0>] ? hci_conn_add+0x128/0x186 [bluetooth] Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001429] [<fa51ce0f>] hci_conn_add+0x177/0x186 [bluetooth] Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001437] [<fa51cf8a>] hci_connect+0x3c/0xfb [bluetooth] Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001442] [<faa20e87>] l2cap_sock_connect+0x174/0x26b [l2cap] Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001448] [<c04c8df5>] sys_connect+0x60/0x7a Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001453] [<c024b703>] ? lock_release_non_nested+0x84/0x1de Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001458] [<c028804b>] ? might_fault+0x47/0x81 Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001462] [<c028804b>] ? might_fault+0x47/0x81 Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001468] [<c033361f>] ? __copy_from_user_ll+0x11/0xce Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001472] [<c04c9419>] sys_socketcall+0x82/0x17b Oct 2 17:41:59 darkstar kernel: [ 438.001477] [<c020329d>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb Signed-off-by:

Fix TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT conversion between seconds and retransmission to match the TCP SYN-ACK retransmission periods because the time is converted to such retransmissions. The old algorithm selects one more retransmission in some cases. Allow up to 255 retransmissions. Signed-off-by:

Change SYN-ACK retransmitting code for the TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT users to not retransmit SYN-ACKs during the deferring period if ACK from client was received. The goal is to reduce traffic during the deferring period. When the period is finished we continue with sending SYN-ACKs (at least one) but this time any traffic from client will change the request to established socket allowing application to terminate it properly. Also, do not drop acked request if sending of SYN-ACK fails. Signed-off-by:

Willy Tarreau and many other folks in recent years were concerned what happens when the TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT period expires for clients which sent ACK packet. They prefer clients that actively resend ACK on our SYN-ACK retransmissions to be converted from open requests to sockets and queued to the listener for accepting after the deferring period is finished. Then application server can decide to wait longer for data or to properly terminate the connection with FIN if read() returns EAGAIN which is an indication for accepting after the deferring period. This change still can have side effects for applications that expect always to see data on the accepted socket. Others can be prepared to work in both modes (with or without TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT period) and their data processing can ignore the read=EAGAIN notification and to allocate resources for clients which proved to have no data to send during the deferring period. OTOH, servers that use TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT=1 as flag (not as a timeout) to wait for data will notice clients that didn't send data for 3 seconds but that still resend ACKs. Thanks to Willy Tarreau for the initial idea and to Eric Dumazet for the review and testing the change. Signed-off-by:

I found a deadlock bug in UNIX domain socket, which makes able to DoS attack against the local machine by non-root users. How to reproduce: 1. Make a listening AF_UNIX/SOCK_STREAM socket with an abstruct namespace(*), and shutdown(2) it. 2. Repeat connect(2)ing to the listening socket from the other sockets until the connection backlog is full-filled. 3. connect(2) takes the CPU forever. If every core is taken, the system hangs. PoC code: (Run as many times as cores on SMP machines.) int main(void) { int ret; int csd; int lsd; struct sockaddr_un sun; /* make an abstruct name address (*) */ memset(&sun, 0, sizeof(sun)); sun.sun_family = PF_UNIX; sprintf(&sun.sun_path[1], "%d", getpid()); /* create the listening socket and shutdown */ lsd = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0); bind(lsd, (struct sockaddr *)&sun, sizeof(sun)); listen(lsd, 1); shutdown(lsd, SHUT_RDWR); /* connect loop */ alarm(15); /* forcely exit the loop after 15 sec */ for (;;) { csd = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0); ret = connect(csd, (struct sockaddr *)&sun, sizeof(sun)); if (-1 == ret) { perror("connect()"); break; } puts("Connection OK"); } return 0; } (*) Make sun_path[0] = 0 to use the abstruct namespace. If a file-based socket is used, the system doesn't deadlock because of context switches in the file system layer. Why this happens: Error checks between unix_socket_connect() and unix_wait_for_peer() are inconsistent. The former calls the latter to wait until the backlog is processed. Despite the latter returns without doing anything when the socket is shutdown, the former doesn't check the shutdown state and just retries calling the latter forever. Patch: The patch below adds shutdown check into unix_socket_connect(), so connect(2) to the shutdown socket will return -ECONREFUSED. Signed-off-by:

If we do rename a dir entry, like this: rename("/tmp/ino7UrgoJ.rename1", "/tmp/ino7UrgoJ.rename2") rename("/tmp/ino7UrgoJ.rename2", "/tmp/ino7UrgoJ") The duplicate events should be coalesced into a single event. But those two events do not be coalesced into a single event, due to some bad check in event_compare(). It can not match the two NULL inodes as the same event. Signed-off-by:

fsnotify_add_mark is supposed to add a mark to the g_list and i_list and to set the group and inode for the mark. fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry uses the fact that ->group != NULL to know if this group should be destroyed or if it's already been done. But fsnotify_add_mark sets the group and inode before it actually adds the mark to the i_list and g_list. This can result in a race in inotify, it requires 3 threads. sys_inotify_add_watch("file") sys_inotify_add_watch("file") sys_inotify_rm_watch([a]) inotify_update_watch() inotify_new_watch() inotify_add_to_idr() ^--- returns wd = [a] inotfiy_update_watch() inotify_new_watch() inotify_add_to_idr() fsnotify_add_mark() ^--- returns wd = [b] returns to userspace; inotify_idr_find([a]) ^--- gives us the pointer from task 1 fsnotify_add_mark() ^--- this is going to set the mark->group and mark->inode fields, but will return -EEXIST because of the race with [b]. fsnotify_destroy_mark() ^--- since ->group != NULL we call back into inotify_freeing_mark() which calls inotify_remove_from_idr([a]) since fsnotify_add_mark() failed we call: inotify_remove_from_idr([a]) <------WHOOPS it's not in the idr, this could have been any entry added later! The fix is to make sure we don't set mark->group until we are sure the mark is on the inode and fsnotify_add_mark will return success. Signed-off-by:
