l2tp: fix {pppol2tp, l2tp_dfs}_seq_stop() in case of seq_file overflow
Commit 0e0c3fee3a59 ("l2tp: hold reference on tunnels printed in pppol2tp proc file")
assumed that if pppol2tp_seq_stop() was called with non-NULL private
data (the 'v' pointer), then pppol2tp_seq_start() would not be called
again. It turns out that this isn't guaranteed, and overflowing the
seq_file's buffer in pppol2tp_seq_show() is a way to get into this
situation.
Therefore, pppol2tp_seq_stop() needs to reset pd->tunnel, so that
pppol2tp_seq_start() won't drop a reference again if it gets called.
We also have to clear pd->session, because the rest of the code expects
a non-NULL tunnel when pd->session is set.
The l2tp_debugfs module has the same issue. Fix it in the same way.

s390/qeth: use Read device to query hypervisor for MAC
For z/VM NICs, qeth needs to consider which of the three CCW devices in
an MPC group it uses for requesting a managed MAC address.
On the Base device, the hypervisor returns a default MAC which is
pre-assigned when creating the NIC (this MAC is also returned by the
READ MAC primitive). Querying any other device results in the allocation
of an additional MAC address.
For consistency with READ MAC and to avoid using up more addresses than
necessary, it is preferable to use the NIC's default MAC. So switch the
the diag26c over to using a NIC's Read device, which should always be
identical to the Base device.

s390/qeth: fix request-side race during cmd IO timeout
Submitting a cmd IO request (usually on the WRITE device, but for IDX
also on the READ device) is currently done with ccw_device_start()
and a manual timeout in the caller.
On timeout, the caller cleans up the related resources (eg. IO buffer).
But 1) the IO might still be active and utilize those resources, and
2) when the IO completes, qeth_irq() will attempt to clean up the
same resources again.
Instead of introducing additional resource locking, switch to
ccw_device_start_timeout() to ensure IO termination after timeout, and
let the IRQ handler alone deal with cleaning up after a request.
This also removes a stray write->irq_pending reset from
clear_ipacmd_list(). The routine doesn't terminate any pending IO on
the WRITE device, so this should be handled properly via IO timeout
in the IRQ handler.
When changing the MAC address on a L2 qeth device, current code first
unregisters the old address, then registers the new one.
If HW rejects the new address (or the IO fails), the device ends up with
no operable address at all.
Re-order the code flow so that the old address only gets dropped if the
new address was registered successfully. While at it, add logic to catch
some corner-cases.
For control IO, qeth currently tracks the index of the buffer that it
expects to complete the next IO on each qeth_channel. If the channel
presents an IRQ while this buffer has not yet completed, no completion
processing for _any_ completed buffer takes place.
So if the 'next buffer' is skipped for any sort of reason* (eg. when it
is released due to error conditions, before the IO is started), the
buffer obviously won't switch to PROCESSED until it is eventually
allocated for a _different_ IO and completes.
Until this happens, all completion processing on that channel stalls
and pending requests possibly time out.
As a fix, remove the whole 'next buffer' logic and simply process any
IO buffer right when it completes. A channel will never have more than
one IO pending, so there's no risk of processing out-of-sequence.
*Note: currently just one location in the code really handles this problem,
by advancing the 'next' index manually.

net/ipv6: Another followup to the fib6_info change
Last one - for this week.
Patches 1, 2 and 7 are more cleanup patches - removing dead code,
moving code from a header to near its single caller, and updating
function name.
Patches 3-5 do some refactoring leading up to patch 6 which fixes
a NULL dereference. I have only managed to trigger a panic once, so
I can not definitively confirm it addresses the problem but it seems
pretty clear that it is a race on removing a 'from' reference on
an rt6_info and another path using that 'from' value to do
cookie checking.

net/ipv6: Make from in rt6_info rcu protected
When a dst entry is created from a fib entry, the 'from' in rt6_info
is set to the fib entry. The 'from' reference is used most notably for
cookie checking - making sure stale dst entries are updated if the
fib entry is changed.
When a fib entry is deleted, the pcpu routes on it are walked releasing
the fib6_info reference. This is needed for the fib6_info cleanup to
happen and to make sure all device references are released in a timely
manner.
There is a race window when a FIB entry is deleted and the 'from' on the
pcpu route is dropped and the pcpu route hits a cookie check. Handle
this race using rcu on from.
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Initial work on BPF Type Format (BTF) is added, which is a meta
data format which describes the data types of BPF programs / maps.
BTF has its roots from CTF (Compact C-Type format) with a number
of changes to it. First use case is to provide a generic pretty
print capability for BPF maps inspection, later work will also
add BTF to bpftool. pahole support to convert dwarf to BTF will
be upstreamed as well (https://github.com/iamkafai/pahole/tree/btf),
from Martin.
2) Add a new xdp_bpf_adjust_tail() BPF helper for XDP that allows
for changing the data_end pointer. Only shrinking is currently
supported which helps for crafting ICMP control messages. Minor
changes in drivers have been added where needed so they recalc
the packet's length also when data_end was adjusted, from Nikita.
3) Improve bpftool to make it easier to feed hex bytes via cmdline
for map operations, from Quentin.
4) Add support for various missing BPF prog types and attach types
that have been added to kernel recently but neither to bpftool
nor libbpf yet. Doc and bash completion updates have been added
as well for bpftool, from Andrey.
5) Proper fix for avoiding to leak info stored in frame data on page
reuse for the two bpf_xdp_adjust_{head,meta} helpers by disallowing
to move the pointers into struct xdp_frame area, from Jesper.
6) Follow-up compile fix from BTF in order to include stdbool.h in
libbpf, from Björn.
7) Few fixes in BPF sample code, that is, a typo on the netdevice
in a comment and fixup proper dump of XDP action code in the
tracepoint exception, from Wang and Jesper.

mm/filemap.c: fix NULL pointer in page_cache_tree_insert()
f2fs specifies the __GFP_ZERO flag for allocating some of its pages.
Unfortunately, the page cache also uses the mapping's GFP flags for

flag, and masks off __GFP_ZERO in some paths, but not all. That causes
radix tree nodes to be allocated with a NULL list_head, which causes
backtraces like:
The __GFP_DMA and __GFP_DMA32 flags would also be able to sneak through
if they are ever used. Fix them all by using GFP_RECLAIM_MASK at the
innermost location, and remove it from earlier in the callchain.

autofs: mount point create should honour passed in mode
The autofs file system mkdir inode operation blindly sets the created
directory mode to S_IFDIR | 0555, ingoring the passed in mode, which can

the passed in mode, allowing the daemon to set appropriate mode when
required.

rapidio: fix rio_dma_transfer error handling
Some of the mport_dma_req structure members were initialized late
inside the do_dma_request() function, just before submitting the
request to the dma engine. But we have some error branches before
that. In case of such an error, the code would return on the error
path and trigger the calling of dma_req_free() with a req structure
which is not completely initialized. This causes a NULL pointer
dereference in dma_req_free().
This patch fixes these error branches by making sure that all
necessary mport_dma_req structure members are initialized in
rio_dma_transfer() immediately after the request structure gets
allocated.
My testing for the latest kernel supporting thp migration showed an
infinite loop in offlining the memory block that is filled with shmem
thps. We can get out of the loop with a signal, but kernel should return
with failure in this case.
What happens in the loop is that scan_movable_pages() repeats returning
the same pfn without any progress. That's because page migration always
fails for shmem thps.
In memory offline code, memory blocks containing unmovable pages should be
prevented from being offline targets by has_unmovable_pages() inside
start_isolate_page_range(). So it's possible to change migratability for
non-anonymous thps to avoid the issue, but it introduces more complex and
thp-specific handling in migration code, so it might not good.
So this patch is suggesting to fix the issue by enabling thp migration for
shmem thp. Both of anon/shmem thp are migratable so we don't need
precheck about the type of thps.
lock_page_memcg()/unlock_page_memcg() use spin_lock_irqsave/restore() if
the page's memcg is undergoing move accounting, which occurs when a
process leaves its memcg for a new one that has
memory.move_charge_at_immigrate set.
unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin,end() use spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq() if
the given inode is switching writeback domains. Switches occur when
enough writes are issued from a new domain.
This existing pattern is thus suspicious:
lock_page_memcg(page);
unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin(inode, &locked);
...
unlocked_inode_to_wb_end(inode, locked);
unlock_page_memcg(page);
If both inode switch and process memcg migration are both in-flight then
unlocked_inode_to_wb_end() will unconditionally enable interrupts while
still holding the lock_page_memcg() irq spinlock. This suggests the
possibility of deadlock if an interrupt occurs before unlock_page_memcg().
Due to configuration limitations this deadlock is not currently possible

echo 1 > b/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate

The deadlock does not seem possible, so it's debatable if there's any
reason to modify the kernel. I suggest we should to prevent future
surprises. And Wang Long said "this deadlock occurs three times in our
environment", so there's more reason to apply this, even to stable.

mm, pagemap: fix swap offset value for PMD migration entry
The swap offset reported by /proc/<pid>/pagemap may be not correct for
PMD migration entries. If addr passed into pagemap_pmd_range() isn't
aligned with PMD start address, the swap offset reported doesn't
reflect this. And in the loop to report information of each sub-page,
the swap offset isn't increased accordingly as that for PFN.
This may happen after opening /proc/<pid>/pagemap and seeking to a page
whose address doesn't align with a PMD start address. I have verified
this with a simple test program.
BTW: migration swap entries have PFN information, do we need to restrict
whether to show them?

mm: fix do_pages_move status handling
Li Wang has reported that LTP move_pages04 test fails with the current
tree:
LTP move_pages04:
TFAIL : move_pages04.c:143: status[1] is EPERM, expected EFAULT
The test allocates an array of two pages, one is present while the other
is not (resp. backed by zero page) and it expects EFAULT for the second
page as the man page suggests. We are reporting EPERM which doesn't make
any sense and this is a result of a bug from cf5f16b23ec9 ("mm: unclutter
THP migration").
do_pages_move tries to handle as many pages in one batch as possible so we
queue all pages with the same node target together and that corresponds to
[start, i] range which is then used to update status array.
add_page_for_migration will correctly notice the zero (resp. !present)
page and returns with EFAULT which gets written to the status. But if
this is the last page in the array we do not update start and so the last
store_status after the loop will overwrite the range of the last batch
with NUMA_NO_NODE (which corresponds to EPERM).
Fix this by simply bailing out from the last flush if the pagelist is
empty as there is clearly nothing more to do.
One of the classes of kernel stack content leaks[1] is exposing the
contents of prior heap or stack contents when a new process stack is
allocated. Normally, those stacks are not zeroed, and the old contents
remain in place. In the face of stack content exposure flaws, those
contents can leak to userspace.
Fixing this will make the kernel no longer vulnerable to these flaws, as
the stack will be wiped each time a stack is assigned to a new process.
There's not a meaningful change in runtime performance; it almost looks
like it provides a benefit.
It continues to look like it's faster, though the deviation is rather
wide, but I'm not sure what I could do that would be less noisy. I'm
open to ideas!
Since at least the 3.10 kernel and likely a lot earlier we have
not been able to create unix domain sockets in a cifs share
when mounted using the SFU mount option (except when mounted
with the cifs unix extensions to Samba e.g.)
Trying to create a socket, for example using the af_unix command from
xfstests will cause :
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000000 00000040
Since no one uses or depends on being able to create unix domains sockets
on a cifs share the easiest fix to stop this vulnerability is to simply
not allow creation of any other special files than char or block devices
when sfu is used.
Added update to Ronnie's patch to handle a tcon link leak, and
to address a buf leak noticed by Gustavo and Colin.

btrfs: Fix race condition between delayed refs and blockgroup removal
When the delayed refs for a head are all run, eventually
cleanup_ref_head is called which (in case of deletion) obtains a
reference for the relevant btrfs_space_info struct by querying the bg
for the range. This is problematic because when the last extent of a
bg is deleted a race window emerges between removal of that bg and the
subsequent invocation of cleanup_ref_head. This can result in cache being null
and either a null pointer dereference or assertion failure.
To fix this, introduce a new flag "is_system" to head_ref structs,
which is populated at insertion time. This allows to decouple the
querying for the spaceinfo from querying the possibly deleted bg.

afs: Fix server record deletion
AFS server records get removed from the net->fs_servers tree when
they're deleted, but not from the net->fs_addresses{4,6} lists, which
can lead to an oops in afs_find_server() when a server record has been
removed, for instance during rmmod.
Fix this by deleting the record from the by-address lists before posting
it for RCU destruction.
The reason this hasn't been noticed before is that the fileserver keeps
probing the local cache manager, thereby keeping the service record
alive, so the oops would only happen when a fileserver eventually gets
bored and stops pinging or if the module gets rmmod'd and a call comes
in from the fileserver during the window between the server records
being destroyed and the socket being closed.

qed* : Use trust mode to override forced MAC
This patchset adds a support to override forced MAC (MAC set by PF for a VF)
when trust mode is enabled using
First patch adds a real change to use .ndo_set_vf_trust to override forced MAC
and allow user to change VFs from VF interface itself.
Second patch takes care of a corner case, where MAC change from VF won't
take effect when VF interface is down, by introducing a new TLV
(a way to send message from VF to PF) to give a hint to PF to update
its bulletin board.
====================
qed* : Add new TLV to request PF to update MAC in bulletin board
There may be a need for VF driver to request PF to explicitly update its
bulletin with a MAC address.
e.g. When user assigns a MAC address to VF while VF is still down,
and PF's bulletin board contains different MAC address, in this case,
when VF's interface is brought up, it gets loaded with MAC address from
bulletin board which is not desirable.
To handle this corner case, we need a new TLV to request PF to update
its bulletin board with suggested MAC.
This request will be honored only for trusted VFs.
qed* : use trust mode to allow VF to override forced MAC
As per existing behavior, when PF sets a MAC address for a VF
(also called as forced MAC), VF is not allowed to change its
MAC address afterwards.
This puts the limitation on few use cases such as bonding of VFs,
where bonding driver asks VF to change its MAC address.
This patch uses a VF trust mode to allow VF to change its MAC address
in spite PF has set a forced MAC for that VF.

Merge branch 'geneve-mtu'
Alexey Kodanev says:
====================
geneve: verify user specified MTU or adjust with a lower device
The first two patches don't introduce any functional changes and
contain minor cleanups for code readability.
The last one adds a new function geneve_link_config() similar to the
other tunnels. The function will be used on a new link creation or
when 'remote' parameter is changed. It adjusts a user specified MTU
or, if it finds a lower device, tunes the tunnel MTU using it.
====================
Currently, on a new link creation or when 'remote' address parameter
is updated, an MTU is not changed and always equals 1500. When a lower
device has a larger MTU, it might not be efficient, e.g. for UDP, and
requires the manual MTU adjustments to match the MTU of the lower
device.
This patch tries to automate this process, finds a lower device using
the 'remote' address parameter, then uses its MTU to tune GENEVE's MTU:
* on a new link creation
* when 'remote' parameter is changed
Also with this patch, the MTU from a user, on a new link creation, is
passed to geneve_change_mtu() where it is verified, and MTU adjustments
with a lower device is skipped in that case. Prior that change, it was
possible to set the invalid MTU values on a new link creation.
geneve: check MTU for a minimum in geneve_change_mtu()
geneve_change_mtu() will be used not only as ndo_change_mtu() callback,
but also to verify a user specified MTU on a new link creation in the
next patch.
geneve: cleanup hard coded value for Ethernet header length
Use ETH_HLEN instead and introduce two new macros: GENEVE_IPV4_HLEN
and GENEVE_IPV6_HLEN that include Ethernet header length, corresponded
IP header length and GENEVE_BASE_HLEN.
====================
tipc: Confgiuration of MTU for media UDP
Systematic measurements have shown that an emulated MTU of 14k for
UDP bearers is the optimal value for maximal throughput. Accordingly,
the default MTU of UDP bearers is changed to 14k.
We also provide users with a fallback option from this value,
by providing support to configure MTU for UDP bearers. The following
options are introduced which are symmetrical to the design of
confguring link tolerance.
- Configure media with new MTU value, which will take effect on
links going up after the moment it was configured. Alternatively,
the bearer has to be disabled and re-enabled, for existing links to
reflect the configured value.
- Configure bearer with new MTU value, which take effect on
running links dynamically.
Please note:
- User has to change MTU at both endpoints, otherwise the link
will fall back to smallest MTU after a reset.
- Failover from a link with higher MTU to a link with lower MTU
====================
tipc: confgiure and apply UDP bearer MTU on running links
Currently, we have option to configure MTU of UDP media. The configured
MTU takes effect on the links going up after that moment. I.e, a user
has to reset bearer to have new value applied across its links. This is
confusing and disturbing on a running cluster.
We now introduce the functionality to change the default UDP bearer MTU
in struct tipc_bearer. Additionally, the links are updated dynamically,
without any need for a reset, when bearer value is changed. We leverage
the existing per-link functionality and the design being symetrical to
the confguration of link tolerance.
In previous commit, we changed the default emulated MTU for UDP bearers
to 14k.
This commit adds the functionality to set/change the default value
by configuring new MTU for UDP media. UDP bearer(s) have to be disabled
and enabled back for the new MTU to take effect.
Currently, all bearers are configured with MTU value same as the
underlying L2 device. However, in case of bearers with media type
UDP, higher throughput is possible with a fixed and higher emulated
MTU value than adapting to the underlying L2 MTU.
In this commit, we introduce a parameter mtu in struct tipc_media
and a default value is set for UDP. A default value of 14k
was determined by experimentation and found to have a higher throughput
than 16k. MTU for UDP bearers are assigned the above set value of
media MTU.

net: ethernet: ave: add support for phy-mode setting of system controller
This patch adds support for specifying system controller that configures
phy-mode setting.
According to the DT property "phy-mode", it's necessary to configure the
controller, which is used to choose the settings of the MAC suitable,
for example, mdio pin connections, internal clocks, and so on.
Supported phy-modes are SoC-dependent. The driver allows phy-mode to set
"internal" if the SoC has a built-in PHY, and {"mii", "rmii", "rgmii"}
if the SoC supports each mode. So we have to check whether the phy-mode
is valid or not.
This adds the following features for each SoC:
- check whether the SoC supports the specified phy-mode
- configure the controller accroding to phy-mode
The DT property accepts one argument to distinguish them for multiple MAC
instances.

the PHY clock are also required for Pro4 to activate the Giga-bit feature
and to recognize the PHY.
To satisfy these requirements, this patch adds support for multiple clocks
and resets, and adds the clock-names and reset-names to the binding because
we need to distinguish clock/reset for the AVE main block and the others.
Also, make the resets a required property. Currently, "reset is
optional" relies on that the bootloader or firmware has deasserted
the reset before booting the kernel. Drivers should work without
such expectation.
mdiobus_register will search for any mdiobus board info registered for
the bus being registered. If found, it will probe devices on the bus.
That device, if for example it is an ethernet switch, may then try to
register an mdio bus. Thus we need to allow recursive calls to
mdiobus_register.
Holding the mdio_board_lock will cause a deadlock during this
recursion. Release the lock and use list_for_each_entry_safe.

perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix SBOX support for Broadwell CPUs
SBOX on some Broadwell CPUs is broken because it's enabled unconditionally
despite the fact that there are no SBOXes available.
Check the Power Control Unit CAPID4 register to determine the number of
available SBOXes on the particular CPU before trying to enable them. If
there are none, nullify the SBOX descriptor so it isn't tried to be
initialized.
x86/power/64: Fix page-table setup for temporary text mapping
On a system with 4-level page-tables there is no p4d, so the pud in the pgd
should be mapped. The old code before commit fb43d6cb91ef already did that.
The change from above commit causes an invalid page-table which causes
undefined behavior. In one report it caused triple faults.
