exit: call disassociate_ctty() before exit_task_namespaces()

2014-05-05T12:24:47Z

commit c39df5fa37b0623589508c95515b4aa1531c524e upstream. Commit 8aac62706ada ("move exit_task_namespaces() outside of exit_notify()") breaks pppd and the exiting service crashes the kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028 IP: ppp_register_channel+0x13/0x20 [ppp_generic] Call Trace: ppp_asynctty_open+0x12b/0x170 [ppp_async] tty_ldisc_open.isra.2+0x27/0x60 tty_ldisc_hangup+0x1e3/0x220 __tty_hangup+0x2c4/0x440 disassociate_ctty+0x61/0x270 do_exit+0x7f2/0xa50 ppp_register_channel() needs ->net_ns and current->nsproxy == NULL. Move disassociate_ctty() before exit_task_namespaces(), it doesn't make sense to delay it after perf_event_exit_task() or cgroup_exit(). This also allows to use task_work_add() inside the (nontrivial) code paths in disassociate_ctty(). Investigated by Peter Hurley.

wait: fix reparent_leader() vs EXIT_DEAD->EXIT_ZOMBIE race

2014-05-05T12:24:47Z

commit dfccbb5e49a621c1b21a62527d61fc4305617aca upstream. wait_task_zombie() first does EXIT_ZOMBIE->EXIT_DEAD transition and drops tasklist_lock. If this task is not the natural child and it is traced, we change its state back to EXIT_ZOMBIE for ->real_parent. The last transition is racy, this is even documented in 50b8d257486a "ptrace: partially fix the do_wait(WEXITED) vs EXIT_DEAD->EXIT_ZOMBIE race". wait_consider_task() tries to detect this transition and clear ->notask_error but we can't rely on ptrace_reparented(), debugger can exit and do ptrace_unlink() before its sub-thread sets EXIT_ZOMBIE. And there is another problem which were missed before: this transition can also race with reparent_leader() which doesn't reset >exit_signal if EXIT_DEAD, assuming that this task must be reaped by someone else. So the tracee can be re-parented with ->exit_signal != SIGCHLD, and if /sbin/init doesn't use __WALL it becomes unreapable. Change reparent_leader() to update ->exit_signal even if EXIT_DEAD. Note: this is the simple temporary hack for -stable, it doesn't try to solve all problems, it will be reverted by the next changes.

sparc64: Make sure %pil interrupts are enabled during hypervisor yield.

2014-05-05T12:24:46Z

[ Upstream commit cb3042d609e30e6144024801c89be3925106752b ] In arch_cpu_idle() we must enable %pil based interrupts before potentially invoking the hypervisor cpu yield call. As per the Hypervisor API documentation for cpu_yield: Interrupts which are blocked by some mechanism other that pstate.ie (for example %pil) are not guaranteed to cause a return from this service. It seems that only first generation Niagara chips are hit by this bug. My best guess is that later chips implement this in hardware and wake up anyways from %pil events, whereas in first generation chips the yield is implemented completely in hypervisor code and requires %pil to be enabled in order to wake properly from this call.

sparc64: don't treat 64-bit syscall return codes as 32-bit

2014-05-05T12:24:46Z

[ Upstream commit 1535bd8adbdedd60a0ee62e28fd5225d66434371 ] When checking a system call return code for an error, linux_sparc_syscall was sign-extending the lower 32-bit value and comparing it to -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK. lseek can return valid return codes whose lower 32-bits alone would indicate a failure (such as 4G-1). Use the whole 64-bit value to check for errors. Only the 32-bit path should sign extend the lower 32-bit value. Signed-off-by: Dave Kleikamp Acked-by: Bob Picco Acked-by: Allen Pais Cc: David S.

2014-05-05T12:24:45Z

[ Upstream commit 4f6500fff5f7644a03c46728fd7ef0f62fa6940b ] In arch/sparc/Kernel/Makefile, we see: obj-$(CONFIG_SPARC64) += jump_label.o However, the Kconfig selects HAVE_ARCH_JUMP_LABEL unconditionally for all SPARC.
