commit dd336c554d upstream.
fix memory leak introduced by the patch 6e03a201bb:
firmware: speed up request_firmware()
1. vfree won't release pages there were allocated explicitly and mapped
using vmap. The memory has to be vunmap-ed and the pages needs
to be freed explicitly
2. page array is moved into the 'struct
firmware' so that we can free it from release_firmware()
and not only in fw_dev_release()
The fix doesn't break the firmware load speed.

commit b6dacf63e9 upstream.
The ACPI spec tells us that the firmware will reenable SCI_EN on resume.
Reality disagrees in some cases. The ACPI spec tells us that the only way
to set SCI_EN is via an SMM call.
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13745 shows us that doing so
may break machines. Tracing the ACPI calls made by Windows shows that it
unconditionally sets SCI_EN on resume with a direct register write, and
therefore the overwhelming probability is that everything is fine with
this behaviour.

commit 718be4aaf3 upstream.
It turns out that there is a bit in the _CST for Intel FFH C3
that tells the OS if we should be checking BM_STS or not.
Linux has been unconditionally checking BM_STS.
If the chip-set is configured to enable BM_STS,
it can retard or completely prevent entry into
deep C-states -- as illustrated by turbostat:

commit cc3e1bea5d upstream (as of v2.6.33-rc3)
This is a bit complicated because we are trying to optimize when we
send barriers to the fs data disk. We could just throw in an extra
barrier to the data disk whenever we send a barrier to the journal
disk, but that's not always strictly necessary.
We only need to send a barrier during a commit when there are data
blocks which are must be written out due to an inode written in
ordered mode, or if fsync() depends on the commit to force data blocks
to disk. Finally, before we drop transactions from the beginning of
the journal during a checkpoint operation, we need to guarantee that
any blocks that were flushed out to the data disk are firmly on the
rust platter before we drop the transaction from the journal.
Thanks to Oleg Drokin for pointing out this flaw in ext3/ext4.

commit bf988435bd upstream.
struct ethtool_rxnfc was originally defined in 2.6.27 for the
ETHTOOL_{G,S}RXFH command with only the cmd, flow_type and data
fields. It was then extended in 2.6.30 to support various additional
commands. These commands should have been defined to use a new
structure, but it is too late to change that now.
Since user-space may still be using the old structure definition
for the ETHTOOL_{G,S}RXFH commands, and since they do not need the
additional fields, only copy the originally defined fields to and
from user-space.

commit f8324e20f8 upstream.
The kernel's math-emu code contains a macro _FP_FROM_INT() which is
used to convert an integer to a raw normalized floating-point value.
It does this basically in three steps:
1. Compute the exponent from the number of leading zero bits.
2. Downshift large fractions to put the MSB in the right position
for normalized fractions.
3. Upshift small fractions to put the MSB in the right position.
There is an boundary error in step 2, causing a fraction with its
MSB exactly one bit above the normalized MSB position to not be
downshifted. This results in a non-normalized raw float, which when
packed becomes a massively inaccurate representation for that input.
The impact of this depends on a number of arch-specific factors,
but it is known to have broken emulation of FXTOD instructions
on UltraSPARC III, which was originally reported as GCC bug 44631
<http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44631>.
Any arch which uses math-emu to emulate conversions from integers to
same-size floats may be affected.
The fix is simple: the exponent comparison used to determine if the
fraction should be downshifted must be "<=" not "<".
I'm sending a kernel module to test this as a reply to this message.
There are also SPARC user-space test cases in the GCC bug entry.

Its an skb_over_panic BUG halt that results from processing an init chunk in
which too many of its variable length parameters are in some way malformed.
The problem is in sctp_process_unk_param:
if (NULL == *errp)
*errp = sctp_make_op_error_space(asoc, chunk,
ntohs(chunk->chunk_hdr->length));
if (*errp) {
sctp_init_cause(*errp, SCTP_ERROR_UNKNOWN_PARAM,
WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length)));
sctp_addto_chunk(*errp,
WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length)),
param.v);
When we allocate an error chunk, we assume that the worst case scenario requires
that we have chunk_hdr->length data allocated, which would be correct nominally,
given that we call sctp_addto_chunk for the violating parameter. Unfortunately,
we also, in sctp_init_cause insert a sctp_errhdr_t structure into the error
chunk, so the worst case situation in which all parameters are in violation
requires chunk_hdr->length+(sizeof(sctp_errhdr_t)*param_count) bytes of data.
The result of this error is that a deliberately malformed packet sent to a
listening host can cause a remote DOS, described in CVE-2010-1173:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2010-1173
I've tested the below fix and confirmed that it fixes the issue. We move to a
strategy whereby we allocate a fixed size error chunk and ignore errors we don't
have space to report. Tested by me successfully

commit e9d6c15738 upstream.
Shaohua Li reported parallel file copy on tmpfs can lead to OOM killer.
This is regression of caused by commit 9ff473b9a7 ("vmscan: evict
streaming IO first"). Wow, It is 2 years old patch!
Currently, tmpfs file cache is inserted active list at first. This means
that the insertion doesn't only increase numbers of pages in anon LRU, but
it also reduces anon scanning ratio. Therefore, vmscan will get totally
confused. It scans almost only file LRU even though the system has plenty
unused tmpfs pages.
Historically, lru_cache_add_active_anon() was used for two reasons.
1) Intend to priotize shmem page rather than regular file cache.
2) Intend to avoid reclaim priority inversion of used once pages.
But we've lost both motivation because (1) Now we have separate anon and
file LRU list. then, to insert active list doesn't help such priotize.
(2) In past, one pte access bit will cause page activation. then to
insert inactive list with pte access bit mean higher priority than to
insert active list. Its priority inversion may lead to uninteded lru
chun. but it was already solved by commit 645747462 (vmscan: detect
mapped file pages used only once). (Thanks Hannes, you are great!)
Thus, now we can use lru_cache_add_anon() instead.

commit 34441427aa upstream.
Originally, commit d899bf7b ("procfs: provide stack information for
threads") attempted to introduce a new feature for showing where the
threadstack was located and how many pages are being utilized by the
stack.
Commit c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage on NOMMU") was
applied to fix the NO_MMU case.
Commit 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack information for threads on
64-bit") was applied to fix a bug in ia32 executables being loaded.
Commit 9ebd4eba7 ("procfs: fix /proc/<pid>/stat stack pointer for kernel
threads") was applied to fix a bug which had kernel threads printing a
userland stack address.
Commit 1306d603f ('proc: partially revert "procfs: provide stack
information for threads"') was then applied to revert the stack pages
being used to solve a significant performance regression.
This patch nearly undoes the effect of all these patches.
The reason for reverting these is it provides an unusable value in
field 28. For x86_64, a fork will result in the task->stack_start
value being updated to the current user top of stack and not the stack
start address. This unpredictability of the stack_start value makes
it worthless. That includes the intended use of showing how much stack
space a thread has.
Other architectures will get different values. As an example, ia64
gets 0. The do_fork() and copy_process() functions appear to treat the
stack_start and stack_size parameters as architecture specific.
I only partially reverted c44972f1 ("procfs: disable per-task stack usage
on NOMMU") . If I had completely reverted it, I would have had to change
mm/Makefile only build pagewalk.o when CONFIG_PROC_PAGE_MONITOR is
configured. Since I could not test the builds without significant effort,
I decided to not change mm/Makefile.
I only partially reverted 89240ba0 ("x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack
information for threads on 64-bit") . I left the KSTK_ESP() change in
place as that seemed worthwhile.

commit 86c38a31aa upstream.
GCC 4.5 introduces behavior that forces the alignment of structures to
use the largest possible value. The default value is 32 bytes, so if
some structures are defined with a 4-byte alignment and others aren't
declared with an alignment constraint at all - it will align at 32-bytes.
For things like the ftrace events, this results in a non-standard array.
When initializing the ftrace subsystem, we traverse the _ftrace_events
section and call the initialization callback for each event. When the
structures are misaligned, we could be treating another part of the
structure (or the zeroed out space between them) as a function pointer.
This patch forces the alignment for all the ftrace_event_call structures
to 4 bytes.
Without this patch, the kernel fails to boot very early when built with
gcc 4.5.
It's trivial to check the alignment of the members of the array, so it
might be worthwhile to add something to the build system to do that
automatically. Unfortunately, that only covers this case. I've asked one
of the gcc developers about adding a warning when this condition is seen.

So instead use LBA48 for such accesses.
This bug could bite a lot of systems, especially when the user has

commit 23be7468e8 upstream.
If a futex key happens to be located within a huge page mapped
MAP_PRIVATE, get_futex_key() can go into an infinite loop waiting for a
page->mapping that will never exist.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=552257 for more details
about the problem.
This patch makes page->mapping a poisoned value that includes
PAGE_MAPPING_ANON mapped MAP_PRIVATE. This is enough for futex to
continue but because of PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, the poisoned value is not
dereferenced or used by futex. No other part of the VM should be
dereferencing the page->mapping of a hugetlbfs page as its page cache is
not on the LRU.
This patch fixes the problem with the test case described in the bugzilla.

commit a29815a333 upstream.
The list macros use LIST_POISON1 and LIST_POISON2 as undereferencable
pointers in order to trap erronous use of freed list_heads. Unfortunately
userspace can arrange for those pointers to actually be dereferencable,
potentially turning an oops to an expolit.
To avoid this allow architectures (currently x86_64 only) to override
the default values for these pointers with truly-undereferencable values.
This is easy on x86_64 as the virtual address space is large and contains
areas that cannot be mapped.
Other 64-bit architectures will likely find similar unmapped ranges.
