x86/mm: account for PGDIR_SIZE alignment

2013-05-13T14:02:44Z

Patch for 3.0-stable. Function find_early_table_space removed upstream. Fixes panic in alloc_low_page due to pgt_buf overflow during init_memory_mapping. find_early_table_space sizes pgt_buf based upon the size of the memory being mapped, but it does not take into account the alignment of the memory. When the region being mapped spans a 512GB (PGDIR_SIZE) alignment, a panic from alloc_low_pages occurs. kernel_physical_mapping_init takes into account PGDIR_SIZE alignment. This causes an extra call to alloc_low_page to be made. This extra call isn't accounted for by find_early_table_space and causes a kernel panic. Change is to take into account PGDIR_SIZE alignment in find_early_table_space. Signed-off-by: Jerry Hoemann Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

commit ce11ff5e5963e441feb591e76278528f876c332d upstream. Control of receive descriptor must not be returned to ethernet chipset before vlan tag processing is done. VLAN tag receive word is now reset both in normal and error path. Signed-off-by: Francois Romieu Spotted-by: Timo Teras Cc: Hayes Wang Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

powerpc: fix numa distance for form0 device tree

2013-05-13T14:02:44Z

commit 7122beeee7bc1757682049780179d7c216dd1c83 upstream. The following commit breaks numa distance setup for old powerpc systems that use form0 encoding in device tree. commit 41eab6f88f24124df89e38067b3766b7bef06ddb powerpc/numa: Use form 1 affinity to setup node distance Device tree node /rtas/ibm,associativity-reference-points would index into /cpus/PowerPCxxxx/ibm,associativity based on form0 or form1 encoding detected by ibm,architecture-vec-5 property. All modern systems use form1 and current kernel code is correct. However, on older systems with form0 encoding, the numa distance will get hard coded as LOCAL_DISTANCE for all nodes. This causes task scheduling anomaly since scheduler will skip building numa level domain (topmost domain with all cpus) if all numa distances are same. (value of 'level' in sched_init_numa() will remain 0) Prior to the above commit: ((from) == (to) ? LOCAL_DISTANCE : REMOTE_DISTANCE) Restoring compatible behavior with this patch for old powerpc systems with device tree where numa distance are encoded as form0.

kernel/audit_tree.c: tree will leak memory when failure occurs in audit_trim_trees()

drm/i915: Fix detection of base of stolen memory

2013-05-13T14:02:43Z

commit e12a2d53ae45a69aea499b64f75e7222cca0f12f upstream. The routine to query the base of stolen memory was using the wrong registers and the wrong encodings on virtually every platform. It was not until the G33 refresh, that a PCI config register was introduced that explicitly said where the stolen memory was. Prior to 865G there was not even a register that said where the end of usable low memory was and where the stolen memory began (or ended depending upon chipset). Before then, one has to look at the BIOS memory maps to find the Top of Memory. Alas that is not exported by arch/x86 and so we have to resort to disabling stolen memory on gen2 for the time being. Then SandyBridge enlarged the PCI register to a full 32-bits and change the encoding of the address, so even though we happened to be querying the right register, we read the wrong bits and ended up using address 0 for our stolen data, i.e. notably FBC.

sparc64: Fix race in TLB batch processing.

2013-05-13T14:02:42Z

[ Commits f36391d2790d04993f48da6a45810033a2cdf847 and f0af97070acbad5d6a361f485828223a4faaa0ee upstream. ] As reported by Dave Kleikamp, when we emit cross calls to do batched TLB flush processing we have a race because we do not synchronize on the sibling cpus completing the cross call. So meanwhile the TLB batch can be reset (tb->tlb_nr set to zero, etc.) and either flushes are missed or flushes will flush the wrong addresses. Fix this by using generic infrastructure to synchonize on the completion of the cross call. This first required getting the flush_tlb_pending() call out from switch_to() which operates with locks held and interrupts disabled. The problem is that smp_call_function_many() cannot be invoked with IRQs disabled and this is explicitly checked for with WARN_ON_ONCE(). We get the batch processing outside of locked IRQ disabled sections by using some ideas from the powerpc port. Namely, we only batch inside of arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode() calls. If we're not in such a region, we flush TLBs synchronously. 1) Get rid of xcall_flush_tlb_pending and per-cpu type implementations. 2) Do TLB batch cross calls instead via: smp_call_function_many() tlb_pending_func() __flush_tlb_pending() 3) Batch only in lazy mmu sequences: a) Add 'active' member to struct tlb_batch b) Define __HAVE_ARCH_ENTER_LAZY_MMU_MODE c) Set 'active' in arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() d) Run batch and clear 'active' in arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode() e) Check 'active' in tlb_batch_add_one() and do a synchronous flush if it's clear. 4) Add infrastructure for synchronous TLB page flushes. a) Implement __flush_tlb_page and per-cpu variants, patch as needed. b) Likewise for xcall_flush_tlb_page. c) Implement smp_flush_tlb_page() to invoke the cross-call. d) Wire up global_flush_tlb_page() to the right routine based upon CONFIG_SMP 5) It turns out that singleton batches are very common, 2 out of every 3 batch flushes have only a single entry in them. The batch flush waiting is very expensive, both because of the poll on sibling cpu completeion, as well as because passing the tlb batch pointer to the sibling cpus invokes a shared memory dereference. Therefore, in flush_tlb_pending(), if there is only one entry in the batch perform a completely asynchronous global_flush_tlb_page() instead. Reported-by: Dave Kleikamp Signed-off-by: David S.

net: drop dst before queueing fragments

2013-05-13T14:02:42Z

[ Upstream commit 97599dc792b45b1669c3cdb9a4b365aad0232f65 ] Commit 4a94445c9a5c (net: Use ip_route_input_noref() in input path) added a bug in IP defragmentation handling, as non refcounted dst could escape an RCU protected section. Commit 64f3b9e203bd068 (net: ip_expire() must revalidate route) fixed the case of timeouts, but not the general problem. Tom Parkin noticed crashes in UDP stack and provided a patch, but further analysis permitted us to pinpoint the root cause. Before queueing a packet into a frag list, we must drop its dst, as this dst has limited lifetime (RCU protected) When/if a packet is finally reassembled, we use the dst of the very last skb, still protected by RCU and valid, as the dst of the reassembled packet. Use same logic in IPv6, as there is no need to hold dst references. Reported-by: Tom Parkin Tested-by: Tom Parkin Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
