    parisc: flush pages through tmpalias space

because a PA2.0 instruction was accidentally introduced into the PA1.1 TLB
insertion interruption path when it was consolidated with the do_alias macro.
Fix the do_alias macro only to use PA2.0 instructions if compiled for 64 bit.

As pointed out by serveral people, PA1.1 only has a type 26 instruction
meaning that the space register must be explicitly encoded.  Not giving an
explicit space means that the compiler uses the type 24 version which is PA2.0
only resulting in an illegal instruction crash.

This regression was caused by

Since XRC support was added, the uverbs code has locked SRQ, CQ and PD
objects needed during QP and SRQ creation in different orders
depending on the the code path.  This leads to the (at least
theoretical) possibility of deadlock, and triggers the lockdep splat
below.

Fix this by making sure we always lock the SRQ first, then CQs and
finally the PD.

The actual locking is fine, since we're dealing with different locks,
but from the same lock class.  cma_disable_callback() acquires the
listening id mutex, whereas rdma_destroy_id() acquires the mutex for
the new connection id.  To fix this, delay the call to
rdma_destroy_id() until we've released the listening id mutex.

As observed and suggested by Tushar Gosavi...

---------
readdir calls these function to send TRANS2_FIND_FIRST and
TRANS2_FIND_NEXT command to the server. The current cifs module is
not specifying CIFS_SEARCH_BACKUP_SEARCH flag while sending these
command when backupuid/backupgid is specified. This can be resolved
by specifying CIFS_SEARCH_BACKUP_SEARCH flag.

When BT traffic load changes from its
previous state, a new LQ command needs to be
sent down to the firmware. This needs to
be done only once per change. The state
variable that keeps track of this change is
last_bt_traffic_load. However, it was not
being updated when the change had been
handled. Not updating this variable was
causing a flood of advanced BT config
commands to be sent to the firmware. Fix
this.

Shadow registers in the device are meant to
allow the driver to update certain device
registers without needing to wake up all
components of the device. However, using
this feature in the device causes
communication between the driver and the
device to become unreliable, resulting in
host command timeouts.

Disable this feature by default till a fix is
available for the bug.

Now when we set the group inode free count, we don't have a proper
group lock so that multiple threads may decrease the inode free
count at the same time. And e2fsck will complain something like:

Free inodes count wrong for group #1 (1, counted=0).
Fix? no

Free inodes count wrong for group #2 (3, counted=0).
Fix? no

Directories count wrong for group #2 (780, counted=779).
Fix? no

Free inodes count wrong for group #3 (2272, counted=2273).
Fix? no

So this patch try to protect it with the ext4_lock_group.

btw, it is found by xfstests test case 269 and the volume is
mkfsed with the parameter
"-O ^resize_inode,^uninit_bg,extent,meta_bg,flex_bg,ext_attr"
and I have run it 100 times and the error in e2fsck doesn't
show up again.

This should be a longstanding bug affecting x86 32bit PAE without THP.
Only archs with 64bit large pmd_t and 32bit unsigned long should be
affected.

With THP enabled the barrier() in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad()
would partly hide the bug when the pmd transition from none to stable,
by forcing a re-read of the *pmd in pmd_offset_map_lock, but when THP is
enabled a new set of problem arises by the fact could then transition
freely in any of the none, pmd_trans_huge or pmd_trans_stable states.
So making the barrier in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad()
unconditional isn't good idea and it would be a flakey solution.

This should be fully fixed by introducing a pmd_read_atomic that reads
the pmd in order with THP disabled, or by reading the pmd atomically
with cmpxchg8b with THP enabled.

Luckily this new race condition only triggers in the places that must
already be covered by pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() so the fix
is localized there but this bug is not related to THP.

NOTE: this can trigger on x86 32bit systems with PAE enabled with more
than 4G of ram, otherwise the high part of the pmd will never risk to be
truncated because it would be zero at all times, in turn so hiding the
SMP race.

This bug was discovered and fully debugged by Ulrich, quote:

----
[..]
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() loads the content of edx and
eax.

    496 static inline int pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(pmd_t
    *pmd)
    497 {
    498         /* depend on compiler for an atomic pmd read */
    499         pmd_t pmdval = *pmd;

                                // edi = pmd pointer
0xc0507a74 <sys_mincore+548>:   mov    0x8(%esp),%edi
...
                                // edx = PTE page table high address
0xc0507a84 <sys_mincore+564>:   mov    0x4(%edi),%edx
...
                                // eax = PTE page table low address
0xc0507a8e <sys_mincore+574>:   mov    (%edi),%eax

[..]

Please note that the PMD is not read atomically. These are two "mov"
instructions where the high order bits of the PMD entry are fetched
first. Hence, the above machine code is prone to the following race.

-  The PMD entry {high|low} is 0x0000000000000000.
   The "mov" at 0xc0507a84 loads 0x00000000 into edx.

-  A page fault (on another CPU) sneaks in between the two "mov"
   instructions and instantiates the PMD.

-  The PMD entry {high|low} is now 0x00000003fda38067.
   The "mov" at 0xc0507a8e loads 0xfda38067 into eax.

In 3.5 kernel, the endpoint is assigned dynamically for the
substreams, but the PCM assignment still checks the presence of the
endpoint pointer.  This ended up in duplicated PCM substream creations

Some edac drivers register themselves as mce decoders via
notifier_chain. But in current notifier_chain implementation logic,
it doesn't accept same notifier registered twice. If so, it will be
wrong when adding/removing the element from the list. For example,
on one SandyBridge platform, remove module sb_edac and then trigger
one error, it will hit oops because it has no mce decoder registered
but related notifier_chain still points to an invalid callback
function. Here is an example:

The warning below triggers on AMD MCM packages because physical package
IDs on the cores of a _physical_ socket are the same. I.e., this field
says which CPUs belong to the same physical package.

However, the same two CPUs belong to two different internal, i.e.
"logical" nodes in the same physical socket which is reflected in the
CPU-to-node map on x86 with NUMA.

Which makes this check wrong on the above topologies so circumvent it.

A bunch of bugzillas have complained how noisy the nmi_watchdog
is during boot-up especially with its expected failure cases
(like virt and bios resource contention).

This is my attempt to quiet them down and keep it less confusing
for the end user.  What I did is print the message for cpu0 and
save it for future comparisons.  If future cpus have an
identical message as cpu0, then don't print the redundant info.
However, if a future cpu has a different message, happily print
that loudly.

Before the change, you would see something like:

reg_timeout_work() calls restore_regulatory_settings() which
takes cfg80211_mutex.

reg_set_request_processed() already holds cfg80211_mutex
before calling cancel_delayed_work_sync(reg_timeout),
so it might deadlock.

Call the async cancel_delayed_work instead, in order
to avoid the potential deadlock.

This is the relevant lockdep warning:

Ignoring interfaces with additional descriptors is not a reliable
method for locating the correct interface on Gobi devices.  There
is at least one device where this method fails:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=143506

The result is that the AT command port (interface #2) is hidden
from qcserial, preventing traditional serial modem usage:

[   15.562552] qmi_wwan 4-1.6:1.0: cdc-wdm0: USB WDM device
[   15.562691] qmi_wwan 4-1.6:1.0: wwan0: register 'qmi_wwan' at usb-0000:00:1d.0-1.6, Qualcomm Gobi wwan/QMI device, 1e:df:3c:3a:4e:3b
[   15.563383] qmi_wwan: probe of 4-1.6:1.1 failed with error -22

[   15.564328] qmi_wwan: probe of 4-1.6:1.3 failed with error -22
[   15.569376] qcserial 4-1.6:1.1: Qualcomm USB modem converter detected
[   15.569440] usb 4-1.6: Qualcomm USB modem converter now attached to ttyUSB0
[   15.570372] qcserial 4-1.6:1.3: Qualcomm USB modem converter detected
[   15.570430] usb 4-1.6: Qualcomm USB modem converter now attached to ttyUSB1

Use static interface numbers taken from the interface map in
qcserial for all Gobi devices instead:

	Gobi 1K USB layout:
	0: serial port (doesn't respond)
	1: serial port (doesn't respond)
	2: AT-capable modem port
	3: QMI/net

	Gobi 2K+ USB layout:
	0: QMI/net
	1: DM/DIAG (use libqcdm from ModemManager for communication)
	2: AT-capable modem port
	3: NMEA

This should be more reliable over all, and will also prevent the
noisy "probe failed" messages.  The whitelisting logic is expected
to be replaced by direct interface number matching in 3.6.

It appears that like most virtual devices, l2tp should be converted to
LLTX mode.

This patch takes care of statistics using atomic_long in both RX and TX
paths, and fix a bug in l2tp_eth_dev_recv(), which was caching skb->data
before a pskb_may_pull() call.

A recursive lockdep warning occurs if you call
regulator_set_optimum_mode() on a regulator with a supply because
there is no nesting annotation for the rdev->mutex. To avoid this
warning, get the supply's load before locking the regulator's
mutex to avoid grabbing the same class of lock twice.

tvp5150 driver probe function doesn't check if the chip is present.
Thus the driver can be loaded without having a device.

This patch fixes the tvp5150_read() function to return an error in case
the I2C transaction fails.
tvp5150_probe() and other relevant driver callbacks changed to check the
status of the I2C read operations.
In case of a read error throw an error message with v4l2_err()
instead of v4l2_dbg().

When a cpu is marked offline during its idle thread it calls
cpu_die() during an RCU idle period. cpu_die() calls complete()
to notify the killing process that the cpu has died. complete()
calls into the scheduler code and eventually grabs an RCU read
lock in cpuacct_charge().

Mark complete() as RCU_NONIDLE so that RCU pays attention to this
CPU for the duration of the complete() function even though it's
in idle.

Each task would kmap part of its address array before getting stuck, but
not enough to actually issue the write.

This patch fixes this by serializing the marshal_iov operations for
async reads and writes. The idea here is to ensure that cifs
aggressively tries to populate a request before attempting to fulfill
another one. As soon as all of the pages are kmapped for a request, then
we can unlock and allow another one to proceed.

There's no need to do this serialization on non-CONFIG_HIGHMEM arches
however, so optimize all of this out when CONFIG_HIGHMEM isn't set.

rpciod is trying to allocate memory for a new socket to talk to the
server. The VM ends up calling ->releasepage to get more memory, and it
tries to do a blocking commit. That commit can't succeed however without
a connected socket, so we deadlock.

Fix this by setting PF_FSTRANS on the workqueue task prior to doing the
socket allocation, and having nfs_release_page check for that flag when
deciding whether to do a commit call. Also, set PF_FSTRANS
unconditionally in rpc_async_schedule since that function can also do
allocations sometimes.

On architectures where cputime_t is 64 bit type, is possible to trigger
divide by zero on do_div(temp, (__force u32) total) line, if total is a
non zero number but has lower 32 bit's zeroed. Removing casting is not
a good solution since some do_div() implementations do cast to u32
internally.

This problem can be triggered in practice on very long lived processes:

[ 2866.309689] =============================================================================
[ 2866.310254] BUG TCP (Not tainted): Object already free
[ 2866.310254] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ 2866.310254]

The bug comes from the fact that timer set in sk_reset_timer() can run
before we actually do the sock_hold(). socket refcount reaches zero and
we free the socket too soon.

timer handler is not allowed to reduce socket refcnt if socket is owned
by the user, or we need to change sk_reset_timer() implementation.

We should take a reference on the socket in case TCP_DELACK_TIMER_DEFERRED
or TCP_DELACK_TIMER_DEFERRED bit are set in tsq_flags

Also fix a typo in tcp_delack_timer(), where TCP_WRITE_TIMER_DEFERRED
was used instead of TCP_DELACK_TIMER_DEFERRED.

For consistency, use same socket refcount change for TCP_MTU_REDUCED_DEFERRED,
even if not fired from a timer.

Not all I/O ASIC versions have the free-running counter implemented, an
early revision used in the 5000/1xx models aka 3MIN and 4MIN did not have
it.  Therefore we cannot unconditionally use it as a clock source.
Fortunately if not implemented its register slot has a fixed value so it
is enough if we check for the value at the end of the calibration period
being the same as at the beginning.

This also means we need to look for another high-precision clock source on
the systems affected.  The 5000/1xx can have an R4000SC processor
installed where the CP0 Count register can be used as a clock source.
Unfortunately all the R4k DECstations suffer from the missed timer
interrupt on CP0 Count reads erratum, so we cannot use the CP0 timer as a
clock source and a clock event both at a time.  However we never need an
R4k clock event device because all DECstations have a DS1287A RTC chip
whose periodic interrupt can be used as a clock source.

This gives us the following four configuration possibilities for I/O ASIC
DECstations:

1. No I/O ASIC counter and no CP0 timer, e.g. R3k 5000/1xx (3MIN).

2. No I/O ASIC counter but the CP0 timer, i.e. R4k 5000/150 (4MIN).

3. The I/O ASIC counter but no CP0 timer, e.g. R3k 5000/240 (3MAX+).

4. The I/O ASIC counter and the CP0 timer, e.g. R4k 5000/260 (4MAX+).

For #1 and #2 this change stops the I/O ASIC free-running counter from
being installed as a clock source of a 0Hz frequency.  For #2 it also
arranges for the CP0 timer to be used as a clock source rather than a
clock event device, because having an accurate wall clock is more
important than a high-precision interval timer.  For #3 there is no
change.  For #4 the change makes the I/O ASIC free-running counter
installed as a clock source so that the CP0 timer can be used as a clock
event device.

Unfortunately the use of the CP0 timer as a clock event device relies on a
succesful completion of c0_compare_interrupt.  That never happens, because
while waiting for a CP0 Compare interrupt to happen the function spins in
a loop reading the CP0 Count register.  This makes the CP0 Count erratum
trigger reliably causing the interrupt waited for to be lost in all cases.
As a result #4 resorts to using the CP0 timer as a clock source as well,
just as #2.  However we want to keep this separate arrangement in case
(hope) c0_compare_interrupt is eventually rewritten such that it avoids
the erratum.

When parsing lines from objdump a line containing source code starting
with a numeric label is mistaken for a line of disassembly starting with
a memory address.

Current validation fails to recognise that the "memory address" is out
of range and calculates an invalid offset which later causes this
segfault:

 We were getting occasional "Scheduling while atomic" call traces

 CONFIG_LOCKDEP and LOCKDEP_SUPPORT to 'y' exposed a lockdep around
 tx_msg_lock in acpi_ipmi.c struct acpi_ipmi_device.

->needs_read_fill is used to implement the following behaviors.

1. Ensure buffer filling on the first read.
2. Force buffer filling after a write.
3. Force buffer filling after a successful poll.

However, #2 and #3 don't really work as sysfs doesn't reset file
position.  While the read buffer would be refilled, the next read
would continue from the position after the last read or write,
requiring an explicit seek to the start for it to be useful, which
makes ->needs_read_fill superflous as read buffer is always refilled
if f_pos == 0.

Update sysfs_read_file() to test buffer->page for #1 instead and
remove ->needs_read_fill.  While this changes behavior in extreme
corner cases - e.g. re-reading a sysfs file after seeking to non-zero
position after a write or poll, it's highly unlikely to lead to actual
breakage.  This change is to prepare for using seq_file in the read
path.

While at it, reformat a comment in fill_write_buffer().

If EM Transmit bit is busy during init ata_msleep() is called.  It is
wrong - msleep() should be used instead of ata_msleep(), because if EM
Transmit bit is busy for one port, it will be busy for all other ports
too, so using ata_msleep() causes wasting tries for another ports.

The most common scenario looks like that now
(six ports try to transmit a LED meaasege):
- port #0 tries for the 1st time and succeeds
- ports #1-5 try for the 1st time and sleeps
- port #1 tries for the 2nd time and succeeds
- ports #2-5 try for the 2nd time and sleeps
- port #2 tries for the 3rd time and succeeds
- ports #3-5 try for the 3rd time and sleeps
- port #3 tries for the 4th time and succeeds
- ports #4-5 try for the 4th time and sleeps
- port #4 tries for the 5th time and succeeds
- port #5 tries for the 5th time and sleeps

At this moment port #5 wasted all its five tries and failed to
initialize.  Because there are only 5 (EM_MAX_RETRY) tries available
usually only five ports succeed to initialize. The sixth port and next
ones usually will fail.

If msleep() is used instead of ata_msleep() the first port succeeds to
initialize in the first try and next ones usually succeed to
initialize in the second try.

…nfs_open()

Use i_writecount to control whether to get an fscache cookie in nfs_open() as
NFS does not do write caching yet.  I *think* this is the cause of a problem
encountered by Mark Moseley whereby __fscache_uncache_page() gets a NULL
pointer dereference because cookie->def is NULL:

The code at the instruction pointer was disassembled:

> (gdb) disas __fscache_uncache_page
> Dump of assembler code for function __fscache_uncache_page:
> ...
> 0xffffffff812a18ff <+31>: mov 0x48(%rbx),%rax

> 0xffffffff812a1907 <+39>: je 0xffffffff812a19cd <__fscache_uncache_page+237>

These instructions make up:

	ASSERTCMP(cookie->def->type, !=, FSCACHE_COOKIE_TYPE_INDEX);

That cmpb is the faulting instruction (%rax is 0).  So cookie->def is NULL -
which presumably means that the cookie has already been at least partway
through __fscache_relinquish_cookie().

What I think may be happening is something like a three-way race on the same
file:

	PROCESS 1	PROCESS 2	PROCESS 3
	===============	===============	===============
	open(O_TRUNC|O_WRONLY)
			open(O_RDONLY)
					open(O_WRONLY)
	-->nfs_open()
	-->nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()
	nfs_fscache_inode_lock()
	nfs_fscache_disable_inode_cookie()
	__fscache_relinquish_cookie()
	nfs_inode->fscache = NULL
	<--nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()

			-->nfs_open()
			-->nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()
			nfs_fscache_inode_lock()
			nfs_fscache_enable_inode_cookie()
			__fscache_acquire_cookie()
			nfs_inode->fscache = cookie
			<--nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()
	<--nfs_open()
	-->nfs_setattr()
	...
	...
	-->nfs_invalidate_page()
	-->__nfs_fscache_invalidate_page()
	cookie = nfsi->fscache
					-->nfs_open()
					-->nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()
					nfs_fscache_inode_lock()
					nfs_fscache_disable_inode_cookie()
					-->__fscache_relinquish_cookie()
	-->__fscache_uncache_page(cookie)
	<crash>
					<--__fscache_relinquish_cookie()
					nfs_inode->fscache = NULL
					<--nfs_fscache_set_inode_cookie()

What is needed is something to prevent process #2 from reacquiring the cookie
- and I think checking i_writecount should do the trick.

It's also possible to have a two-way race on this if the file is opened
O_TRUNC|O_RDONLY instead.

The lockdep annotation for dquot lock nesting only understands
locking for user and "other" dquots, not user, group and quota
dquots. Fix the annotations to match the locking heirarchy we now
have.

Previously we coalesced windows by expanding the first overlapping one and
making the second invalid.  But we never look at the expanded first window
again, so we fail to notice other windows that overlap it.  For example, we
coalesced these:

  [io  0x0000-0x03af] // #0
  [io  0x03e0-0x0cf7] // #1
  [io  0x0000-0xdfff] // #2

into these, which still overlap:

  [io  0x0000-0xdfff] // #0
  [io  0x03e0-0x0cf7] // #1

The fix is to expand the *second* overlapping resource and ignore the
first, so we get this instead with no overlaps:

  [io  0x0000-0xdfff] // #2

This patch adds a batch support to nfnetlink. Basically, it adds
two new control messages:

* NFNL_MSG_BATCH_BEGIN, that indicates the beginning of a batch,
  the nfgenmsg->res_id indicates the nfnetlink subsystem ID.

* NFNL_MSG_BATCH_END, that results in the invocation of the
  ss->commit callback function. If not specified or an error
  ocurred in the batch, the ss->abort function is invoked
  instead.

The end message represents the commit operation in nftables, the
lack of end message results in an abort. This patch also adds the
.call_batch function that is only called from the batch receival
path.

This patch adds atomic rule updates and dumps based on
bitmask generations. This allows to atomically commit a set of
rule-set updates incrementally without altering the internal
state of existing nf_tables expressions/matches/targets.

The idea consists of using a generation cursor of 1 bit and
a bitmask of 2 bits per rule. Assuming the gencursor is 0,
then the genmask (expressed as a bitmask) can be interpreted
as:

00 active in the present, will be active in the next generation.
01 inactive in the present, will be active in the next generation.
10 active in the present, will be deleted in the next generation.
 ^
 gencursor

Once you invoke the transition to the next generation, the global
gencursor is updated:

00 active in the present, will be active in the next generation.
01 active in the present, needs to zero its future, it becomes 00.
10 inactive in the present, delete now.
^
gencursor

If a dump is in progress and nf_tables enters a new generation,
the dump will stop and return -EBUSY to let userspace know that
it has to retry again. In order to invalidate dumps, a global
genctr counter is increased everytime nf_tables enters a new
generation.

This new operation can be used from the user-space utility
that controls the firewall, eg.

nft -f restore

The rule updates contained in `file' will be applied atomically.

cat file
-----
add filter INPUT ip saddr 1.1.1.1 counter accept #1
del filter INPUT ip daddr 2.2.2.2 counter drop   #2
-EOF-

Note that the rule 1 will be inactive until the transition to the
next generation, the rule 2 will be evicted in the next generation.

There is a penalty during the rule update due to the branch
misprediction in the packet matching framework. But that should be
quickly resolved once the iteration over the commit list that
contain rules that require updates is finished.

Event notification happens once the rule-set update has been
committed. So we skip notifications is case the rule-set update
is aborted, which can happen in case that the rule-set is tested
to apply correctly.

This patch squashed the following patches from Pablo:

* nf_tables: atomic rule updates and dumps
* nf_tables: get rid of per rule list_head for commits
* nf_tables: use per netns commit list
* nfnetlink: add batch support and use it from nf_tables
* nf_tables: all rule updates are transactional
* nf_tables: attach replacement rule after stale one
* nf_tables: do not allow deletion/replacement of stale rules
* nf_tables: remove unused NFTA_RULE_FLAGS

The out-of-bounds access happens on 'parser->buffer[parser->idx] = 0;'

Although the crash happened in ftrace_regex_open() the real bug
occurred in trace_get_user() where there's an incrementation to
parser->idx without a check against the size. The way it is triggered
is if userspace sends in 128 characters (EVENT_BUF_SIZE + 1), the loop
that reads the last character stores it and then breaks out because
there is no more characters. Then the last character is read to determine
what to do next, and the index is incremented without checking size.

Then the caller of trace_get_user() usually nulls out the last character
with a zero, but since the index is equal to the size, it writes a nul
character after the allocated space, which can corrupt memory.

Luckily, only root user has write access to this file.

  IMHO problem come when received len size is bigger than maximum of the

  isn't place to copy the rest of len size.

  We should skip copied bytes from the buffer not from the iov itself
  which memcpy_toiovecend does.

While enabling lockdep on seqlocks, I ran across the warning below
caused by the ipv6 stats being updated in both irq and non-irq context.

This patch changes from IP6_INC_STATS_BH to IP6_INC_STATS (suggested
by Eric Dumazet) to resolve this problem.

====================
tipc: message reassembly using fragment chain

We introduce a new reassembly algorithm that improves performance
and eliminates the risk of causing out-of-memory situations.

v3: -Use skb_try_coalesce, and revert to fraglist if this does not succeed.
    -Make sure reassembly list head is uncloned.

v2: -Rebased on Ying's indentation fix.
    -Node unlock call in msg_fragmenter case moved from patch #2 to #1.
     ('continue' with this lock held would cause spinlock recursion if only
      patch #1 is used)

Nathan Zimmer found that once we get over 10+ cpus, the scalability of
SPECjbb falls over due to the contention on the global 'epmutex', which is
taken in on EPOLL_CTL_ADD and EPOLL_CTL_DEL operations.

Patch #1 removes the 'epmutex' lock completely from the EPOLL_CTL_DEL path
by using rcu to guard against any concurrent traversals.

Patch #2 remove the 'epmutex' lock from EPOLL_CTL_ADD operations for
simple topologies.  IE when adding a link from an epoll file descriptor to
a wakeup source, where the epoll file descriptor is not nested.

This patch (of 2):

Optimize EPOLL_CTL_DEL such that it does not require the 'epmutex' by
converting the file->f_ep_links list into an rcu one.  In this way, we can
traverse the epoll network on the add path in parallel with deletes.
Since deletes can't create loops or worse wakeup paths, this is safe.

This patch in combination with the patch "epoll: Do not take global 'epmutex'
for simple topologies", shows a dramatic performance improvement in
scalability for SPECjbb.

It triggers in the following segment of the code:

0x1313 is in rfcomm_sock_getsockopt (net/bluetooth/rfcomm/sock.c:743).
738
739	static int rfcomm_sock_getsockopt_old(struct socket *sock, int optname, char __user *optval, int __user *optlen)

744		int len, err = 0;
745		u32 opt;
746
747		BT_DBG("sk %p", sk);

The l2cap_pi(sk) is wrong here since it should have been rfcomm_pi(sk),
but that socket of course does not contain the low-level connection
details requested here.

Tracking down the actual offending commit, it seems that this has been
introduced when doing some L2CAP refactoring:

The l2cap_sk got accidentally mixed into the sk (which is RFCOMM) and
now causing a problem within getsocketopt() system call. To fix this,
just re-introduce l2cap_sk and make sure the right socket is used for
the low-level connection details.

New tracepoints have been added that have allowed for NULL pointers
being assigned to strings. To fix this, change the TRACE_EVENT() code
to check for NULL and if it is, it will assign "(null)" to it instead
(similar to what glibc printf does).

The following two commits implemented mmap support in the regular file
path and merged bin file support into the regular path.

 73d9714 ("sysfs: copy bin mmap support from fs/sysfs/bin.c to fs/sysfs/file.c")
 3124eb1 ("sysfs: merge regular and bin file handling")

After the merge, the following commands trigger a spurious lockdep
warning.  "test-mmap-read" simply mmaps the file and dumps the
content.

  $ cat /sys/block/sda/trace/act_mask
  $ test-mmap-read /sys/devices/pci0000\:00/0000\:00\:03.0/resource0 4096

This happens because one file nests sr_mutex, which nests mm->mmap_sem
under it, under of->mutex while mmap implementation naturally nests
of->mutex under mm->mmap_sem.  The warning is false positive as
of->mutex is per open-file and the two paths belong to two different
files.  This warning didn't trigger before regular and bin file
supports were merged because only bin file supported mmap and the
other side of locking happened only on regular files which used
equivalent but separate locking.

It'd be best if we give separate locking classes per file but we can't
easily do that.  Let's differentiate on ->mmap() for now.  Later we'll
add explicit file operations struct and can add per-ops lockdep key
there.

ttyA has ld associated to n_gsm, when ttyA is closing, it triggers
to release gsmttyB's ld data dlci[B], then race would happen if gsmttyB
is opening in parallel.

Here are race cases we found recently in test:

CASE #1
====================================================================
releasing dlci[B] race with gsmtty_install(gsmttyB), then panic
in gsmtty_open(gsmttyB), as below:

 tty_release(ttyA)                  tty_open(gsmttyB)
     |                                   |
   -----                           gsmtty_install(gsmttyB)
     |                                   |
   -----                    gsm_dlci_alloc(gsmttyB) => alloc dlci[B]
 tty_ldisc_release(ttyA)               -----
     |                                   |
 gsm_dlci_release(dlci[B])             -----
     |                                   |
 gsm_dlci_free(dlci[B])                -----
     |                                   |
   -----                           gsmtty_open(gsmttyB)

 gsmtty_open()
 {
     struct gsm_dlci *dlci = tty->driver_data; => here it uses dlci[B]
     ...
 }

 In gsmtty_open(gsmttyA), it uses dlci[B] which was release, so hit a panic.
=====================================================================

CASE #2
=====================================================================
releasing dlci[0] race with gsmtty_install(gsmttyB), then panic
in gsmtty_open(), as below:

 tty_release(ttyA)                  tty_open(gsmttyB)
     |                                   |

   -----                         gsmtty_open(gsmttyB) fail
     |                                   |

   -----                           gsmtty_close(gsmttyB)
     |                                   |
   -----                        gsmtty_detach_dlci(dlci[B])
     |                                   |
   -----                             dlci_put(dlci[B])
     |                                   |
 tty_ldisc_release(ttyA)               -----
     |                                   |

     |                                   |

   -----                             dlci_put(dlci[0])

 In gsmtty_detach_dlci(dlci[B]), it tries to use dlci[0] which was released,
 then hit panic.
=====================================================================

IMHO, n_gsm tty operations would refer released ldisc,  as long as
gsm_dlci_release() has chance to release ldisc data when some gsmtty operations
are not completed..

This patch is try to avoid it by:

1) in n_gsm driver, use a global gsm spin lock to avoid gsm_dlci_release() run in
parallel with gsmtty_install();

2) Increase dlci's ref count in gsmtty_install() instead of in gsmtty_open(), the
purpose is to prevent gsm_dlci_release() releasing dlci after gsmtty_install()
allocats dlci but before gsmtty_open increases dlci's ref count;

3) Decrease dlci's ref count in gsmtty_remove(), which is a tty framework api, and
this is the opposite process of step 2).

== The issue background ==

The problem occurs, because e1000_down(), which is called under
adapter->mutex by e1000_reset_task(), tries to synchronously cancel
e1000 auxiliary works (reset_task, watchdog_task, phy_info_task,
fifo_stall_task), which take adapter->mutex in their handlers. So the
question is what does adapter->mutex protect there?

The adapter->mutex was introduced by commit 0ef4ee ("e1000: convert to
private mutex from rtnl") as a replacement for rtnl_lock() taken in the
asynchronous handlers. It targeted on fixing a similar lockdep warning
issued when e1000_down() was called under rtnl_lock(), and it fixed it,
but unfortunately it introduced the lockdep warning described above.
Anyway, that said the source of this bug is that the asynchronous works
were made to take rtnl_lock() some time ago, so let's look deeper and
find why it was added there.

The rtnl_lock() was added to asynchronous handlers by commit 338c15
("e1000: fix occasional panic on unload") in order to prevent
asynchronous handlers from execution after the module is unloaded
(e1000_down() is called) as it follows from the comment to the commit:

> Net drivers in general have an issue where timers fired
> by mod_timer or work threads with schedule_work are running
> outside of the rtnl_lock.
>
> With no other lock protection these routines are vulnerable
> to races with driver unload or reset paths.
>
> The longer term solution to this might be a redesign with
> safer locks being taken in the driver to guarantee no
> reentrance, but for now a safe and effective fix is
> to take the rtnl_lock in these routines.

I'm not sure if this locking scheme fixed the problem or just made it
unlikely, although I incline to the latter. Anyway, this was long time
ago when e1000 auxiliary works were implemented as timers scheduling
real work handlers in their routines. The e1000_down() function only
canceled the timers, but left the real handlers running if they were
running, which could result in work execution after module unload.
Today, the e1000 driver uses sane delayed works instead of the pair
timer+work to implement its delayed asynchronous handlers, and the
e1000_down() synchronously cancels all the works so that the problem
that commit 338c15 tried to cope with disappeared, and we don't need any
locks in the handlers any more. Moreover, any locking there can
potentially result in a deadlock.

So, this patch reverts commits 0ef4ee and 338c15.

…is completed

Currently, when mounting pstore file system, a read callback of
efi_pstore driver runs mutiple times as below.

- In the first read callback, scan efivar_sysfs_list from head and pass
  a kmsg buffer of a entry to an upper pstore layer.
- In the second read callback, rescan efivar_sysfs_list from the entry
  and pass another kmsg buffer to it.
- Repeat the scan and pass until the end of efivar_sysfs_list.

In this process, an entry is read across the multiple read function
calls. To avoid race between the read and erasion, the whole process
above is protected by a spinlock, holding in open() and releasing in
close().

At the same time, kmemdup() is called to pass the buffer to pstore
filesystem during it. And then, it causes a following lockdep warning.

To make the dynamic memory allocation runnable without taking spinlock,
holding off a deletion of sysfs entry if it happens while scanning it
via efi_pstore, and deleting it after the scan is completed.

To implement it, this patch introduces two flags, scanning and deleting,
to efivar_entry.

On the code basis, it seems that all the scanning and deleting logic is
not needed because __efivars->lock are not dropped when reading from the
EFI variable store.

But, the scanning and deleting logic is still needed because an
efi-pstore and a pstore filesystem works as follows.

In case an entry(A) is found, the pointer is saved to psi->data.  And
efi_pstore_read() passes the entry(A) to a pstore filesystem by
releasing  __efivars->lock.

And then, the pstore filesystem calls efi_pstore_read() again and the
same entry(A), which is saved to psi->data, is used for resuming to scan
a sysfs-list.

So, to protect the entry(A), the logic is needed.
