An old array block could have its reference count decremented below
zero when it is being replaced in the btree by a new array block.
The fix is to increment the old ablock's reference count just before

The old behaviour, returning -EINVAL if a ref_count of 0 would be
decremented, was removed in commit f722063 ("dm space map: optimise
sm_ll_dec and sm_ll_inc"). To fix this regression we return an error
code from the mutator function pointer passed to sm_ll_mutate() and have
dec_ref_count() return -EINVAL if the old ref_count is 0.
Add a DMERR to reflect the potential seriousness of this error.
Also, add missing dm_tm_unlock() to sm_ll_mutate()'s error path.
With this fix the following dmts regression test now passes:
dmtest run --suite cache -n /metadata_use_kernel/
The next patch fixes the higher-level dm-array code that exposed this
regression.

Commit 4942642080 ("mm: memcg: handle non-error OOM situations more
gracefully") allowed tasks that already entered a memcg OOM condition to
bypass the memcg limit on subsequent allocation attempts hoping this
would expedite finishing the page fault and executing the kill.
David Rientjes is worried that this breaks memcg isolation guarantees
and since there is no evidence that the bypass actually speeds up fault
processing just change it so that these subsequent charge attempts fail
outright. The notable exception being __GFP_NOFAIL charges which are
required to bypass the limit regardless.

There is a race condition between a memcg being torn down and a swapin
triggered from a different memcg of a page that was recorded to belong
to the exiting memcg on swapout (with CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP extension). The
result is unreclaimable pages pointing to dead memcgs, which can lead to
anything from endless loops in later memcg teardown (the page is charged
to all hierarchical parents but is not on any LRU list) or crashes from
following the dangling memcg pointer.
Memcgs with tasks in them can not be torn down and usually charges don't
show up in memcgs without tasks. Swapin with the CONFIG_MEMCG_SWAP
extension is the notable exception because it charges the cgroup that
was recorded as owner during swapout, which may be empty and in the
process of being torn down when a task in another memcg triggers the
swapin:
teardown: swapin:
lookup_swap_cgroup_id()
rcu_read_lock()
mem_cgroup_lookup()
css_tryget()
rcu_read_unlock()
disable css_tryget()
call_rcu()
offline_css()
reparent_charges()
res_counter_charge() (hierarchical!)
css_put()
css_free()
pc->mem_cgroup = dead memcg
add page to dead lru
Add a final reparenting step into css_free() to make sure any such raced
charges are moved out of the memcg before it's finally freed.
In the longer term it would be cleaner to have the css_tryget() and the
res_counter charge under the same RCU lock section so that the charge
reparenting is deferred until the last charge whose tryget succeeded is
visible. But this will require more invasive changes that will be
harder to evaluate and backport into stable, so better defer them to a
separate change set.

Rename old regmap field of "struct sec_pmic_dev" to "regmap_pmic" and
add new regmap for RTC.
On S5M8767A registers were not properly updated and read due to usage of
the same regmap as the PMIC. This could be observed in various hangs,
e.g. in infinite loop during waiting for UDR field change.
On this chip family the RTC has different I2C address than PMIC so
additional regmap is needed.

Commit fad1a86e25 ("procfs: call default get_unmapped_area on
MMU-present architectures"), as its title says, took care of only the
MMU case, leaving the !MMU side still in the regressed state (returning
-EIO in all cases where pde->proc_fops->get_unmapped_area is NULL).
From the fad1a86e25 changelog:
"Commit c4fe244857 ("sparc: fix PCI device proc file mmap(2)") added
proc_reg_get_unmapped_area in proc_reg_file_ops and
proc_reg_file_ops_no_compat, by which now mmap always returns EIO if
get_unmapped_area method is not defined for the target procfs file, which
causes regression of mmap on /proc/vmcore.
To address this issue, like get_unmapped_area(), call default
current->mm->get_unmapped_area on MMU-present architectures if
pde->proc_fops->get_unmapped_area, i.e. the one in actual file operation
in the procfs file, is not defined"

Commit 84235de394 ("fs: buffer: move allocation failure loop into the

forgot to disable the OOM killer.
Any task that does not fail allocation will also not enter the OOM
completion path. So don't declare an OOM state in this case or it'll be
leaked and the task be able to bypass the limit until the next
userspace-triggered page fault cleans up the OOM state.

Another week, another batch of fixes.
Again, OMAP regressions due to move to DT is the bulk of the changes here,
but this should be the last of it for 3.13. There are also a handful of
OMAP hwmod changes (power management, reset handling) for USB on OMAP3
that fixes some longish-standing bugs around USB resets.
There are a couple of other changes that also add up line count a bit:
One is a long-standing bug with the keyboard layout on one of the
PXA platforms. The other is a fix for highbank that moves their
power-off/reset button handling to be done in-kernel since relying on
userspace to handle it was fragile and awkward.

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson:
"Another week, another batch of fixes.
Again, OMAP regressions due to move to DT is the bulk of the changes
here, but this should be the last of it for 3.13. There are also a
handful of OMAP hwmod changes (power management, reset handling) for
USB on OMAP3 that fixes some longish-standing bugs around USB resets.
There are a couple of other changes that also add up line count a bit:
One is a long-standing bug with the keyboard layout on one of the PXA
platforms. The other is a fix for highbank that moves their
power-off/reset button handling to be done in-kernel since relying on
userspace to handle it was fragile and awkward"

mtd: nand: pxa3xx: Allocate data buffer on detected flash size
the way the buffer is allocated was changed: the first READ_ID is issued
with a small kmalloc'ed buffer. Only once the flash page size is detected
the DMA buffers are allocated, and info->use_dma is set.
Currently, if the device detection fails, the driver checks the 'use_dma'
module parameter and tries to release unallocated DMA resources.
Fix this by checking the proper indicator of the DMA allocation, which
is 'info->use_dma'.

Due to difficulty in arriving at the proper security label for
TCP SYN-ACK packets in selinux_ip_postroute(), we need to check packets
while/before they are undergoing XFRM transforms instead of waiting
until afterwards so that we can determine the correct security label.

In selinux_ip_postroute() we perform access checks based on the
packet's security label. For locally generated traffic we get the
packet's security label from the associated socket; this works in all
cases except for TCP SYN-ACK packets. In the case of SYN-ACK packet's
the correct security label is stored in the connection's request_sock,
not the server's socket. Unfortunately, at the point in time when
selinux_ip_postroute() is called we can't query the request_sock
directly, we need to recreate the label using the same logic that
originally labeled the associated request_sock.
See the inline comments for more explanation.

In selinux_ip_output() we always label packets based on the parent
socket. While this approach works in almost all cases, it doesn't
work in the case of TCP SYN-ACK packets when the correct label is not
the label of the parent socket, but rather the label of the larval
socket represented by the request_sock struct.
Unfortunately, since the request_sock isn't queued on the parent
socket until *after* the SYN-ACK packet is sent, we can't lookup the
request_sock to determine the correct label for the packet; at this
point in time the best we can do is simply pass/NF_ACCEPT the packet.
It must be said that simply passing the packet without any explicit
labeling action, while far from ideal, is not terrible as the SYN-ACK
packet will inherit any IP option based labeling from the initial
connection request so the label *should* be correct and all our
access controls remain in place so we shouldn't have to worry about
information leaks.

A guest can cause a BUG_ON() leading to a host kernel crash.
When the guest writes to the ICR to request an IPI, while in x2apic
mode the following things happen, the destination is read from
ICR2, which is a register that the guest can control.
kvm_irq_delivery_to_apic_fast uses the high 16 bits of ICR2 as the
cluster id. A BUG_ON is triggered, which is a protection against
accessing map->logical_map with an out-of-bounds access and manages
to avoid that anything really unsafe occurs.
The logic in the code is correct from real HW point of view. The problem
is that KVM supports only one cluster with ID 0 in clustered mode, but
the code that has the bug does not take this into account.

In kvm_lapic_sync_from_vapic and kvm_lapic_sync_to_vapic there is the
potential to corrupt kernel memory if userspace provides an address that
is at the end of a page. This patches concerts those functions to use
kvm_write_guest_cached and kvm_read_guest_cached. It also checks the
vapic_address specified by userspace during ioctl processing and returns
an error to userspace if the address is not a valid GPA.
This is generally not guest triggerable, because the required write is
done by firmware that runs before the guest. Also, it only affects AMD
processors and oldish Intel that do not have the FlexPriority feature
(unless you disable FlexPriority, of course; then newer processors are
also affected).

Under guest controllable circumstances apic_get_tmcct will execute a
divide by zero and cause a crash. If the guest cpuid support
tsc deadline timers and performs the following sequence of requests
the host will crash.
- Set the mode to periodic
- Set the TMICT to 0
- Set the mode bits to 11 (neither periodic, nor one shot, nor tsc deadline)
- Set the TMICT to non-zero.
Then the lapic_timer.period will be 0, but the TMICT will not be. If the
guest then reads from the TMCCT then the host will perform a divide by 0.
This patch ensures that if the lapic_timer.period is 0, then the division
does not occur.

If a muxed i2c bus gets created the default retry count and
timeout of the muxed bus is zero. Hence it it possible that you
end up with a situation where the parent controller sets a default
retry count and timeout which gets applied and used while the muxed
bus (using the same controller) has a default retry count of zero
and a default timeout of 1s (set in i2c_add_adapter()). This can be
solved by initializing the retry count and timeout of the muxed
bus with the values used by the the parent at creation time.

There is a mistake in checking the gso_prefix mask when passing large
packets to a guest. The wrong shift is applied to the bit - the raw skb
gso type is used rather then the translated one. This leads to large packets
being handed to the guest without the GSO metadata. This patch fixes the
check.
The mistake manifested as errors whilst running Microsoft HCK large packet
offload tests between a pair of Windows 8 VMs. I have verified this patch

neigh_priv_len is defined as u8. With all debug enabled struct
ipoib_neigh has 200 bytes. The largest part is sk_buff_head with 96
bytes and here the spinlock with 72 bytes.
The size value still fits in this u8 leaving some room for more.
On -RT struct ipoib_neigh put on weight and has 392 bytes. The main
reason is sk_buff_head with 288 and the fatty here is spinlock with 192
bytes. This does no longer fit into into neigh_priv_len and gcc
complains.
This patch changes neigh_priv_len from being 8bit to 16bit. Since the
following element (dev_id) is 16bit followed by a spinlock which is
aligned, the struct remains with a total size of 3200 (allmodconfig) /
2048 (with as much debug off as possible) bytes on x86-64.
On x86-32 the struct is 1856 (allmodconfig) / 1216 (with as much debug
off as possible) bytes long. The numbers were gained with and without
the patch to prove that this change does not increase the size of the
struct.

When explicitly hashing the end of a string with the word-at-a-time
interface, we have to be careful which end of the word we pick up.
On big-endian CPUs, the upper-bits will contain the data we're after, so
ensure we generate our masks accordingly (and avoid hashing whatever
random junk may have been sitting after the string).
This patch adds a new dcache helper, bytemask_from_count, which creates
a mask appropriate for the CPU endianness.

former call has the side effect of advancing the ring event pointer and
therefore inviting another interrupt from the frontend before the napi
poll has actually finished, thereby defeating the point of napi.
The event pointer is updated by RING_FINAL_CHECK_FOR_REQUESTS in

netback seems to be somewhat confused about the napi budget parameter. The
parameter is supposed to limit the number of skbs processed in each poll,
but netback has this confused with grant operations.
This patch fixes that, properly limiting the work done in each poll. Note
that this limit makes sure we do not process any more data from the shared
ring than we intend to pass back from the poll. This is important to
prevent tx_queue potentially growing without bound.
