The following patch fixes an issue observed with 4k sector disks
where the max_hw_sectors attribute was getting set too large in
sd_revalidate_disk. Since sdkp->max_xfer_blocks is in units
of SCSI logical blocks and queue_max_hw_sectors is in units of
512 byte blocks, on a 4k sector disk, every time we went through
sd_revalidate_disk, we were taking the current value of
queue_max_hw_sectors and increasing it by a factor of 8. Fix
this by only shifting sdkp->max_xfer_blocks.

This fixes a regression caused by commit 1d5203 ("scsi: handle more device
handler setup/teardown in common code").
The bug is that the alua detach() callout will try to access the
sddev->scsi_dh_data, but we have already set it to NULL. This patch
moves the clearing of that field to after detach() is called.

In commit be9f4a44e7d41 ("ipv4: tcp: remove per net tcp_sock")
I tried to address contention on a socket lock, but the solution
I chose was horrible :
commit 3a7c384ffd57e ("ipv4: tcp: unicast_sock should not land outside
of TCP stack") addressed a selinux regression.
commit 0980e56e506b ("ipv4: tcp: set unicast_sock uc_ttl to -1")
took care of another regression.
commit b5ec8eeac46 ("ipv4: fix ip_send_skb()") fixed another regression.
commit 811230cd85 ("tcp: ipv4: initialize unicast_sock sk_pacing_rate")
was another shot in the dark.
Really, just use a proper socket per cpu, and remove the skb_orphan()
call, to re-enable flow control.
This solves a serious problem with FQ packet scheduler when used in
hostile environments, as we do not want to allocate a flow structure
for every RST packet sent in response to a spoofed packet.

If a non-page-aligned write is destined for a device which
is missing/faulty, we can deadlock.
As the target device is missing, a read-modify-write cycle
is not possible.
As the write is not for a full-page, a recontruct-write cycle
is not possible.
This should be handled by logic in fetch_block() which notices
there is a non-R5_OVERWRITE write to a missing device, and so
loads all blocks.
However since commit 67f455486d2ea2, that code requires
STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE before it will active, and those circumstances
never set STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE.
So: in handle_stripe_dirtying, if neither rmw or rcw was possible,
set STRIPE_DELAYED, which will cause STRIPE_PREREAD_ACTIVE be set
after a suitable delay.

Commit 8eb23b9f35aa ("sched: Debug nested sleeps") added code to report
on nested sleep conditions, which we generally want to avoid because the
inner sleeping operation can re-set the thread state to TASK_RUNNING,
but that will then cause the outer sleep loop not actually sleep when it
calls schedule.
However, that's actually valid traditional behavior, with the inner
sleep being some fairly rare case (like taking a sleeping lock that
normally doesn't actually need to sleep).
And the debug code would actually change the state of the task to
TASK_RUNNING internally, which makes that kind of traditional and
working code not work at all, because now the nested sleep doesn't just
sometimes cause the outer one to not block, but will cause it to happen
every time.
In particular, it will cause the cardbus kernel daemon (pccardd) to
basically busy-loop doing scheduling, converting a laptop into a heater,
as reported by Bruno Prémont. But there may be other legacy uses of
that nested sleep model in other drivers that are also likely to never
get converted to the new model.
This fixes both cases:
- don't set TASK_RUNNING when the nested condition happens (note: even
if WARN_ONCE() only _warns_ once, the return value isn't whether the
warning happened, but whether the condition for the warning was true.
So despite the warning only happening once, the "if (WARN_ON(..))"
would trigger for every nested sleep.
- in the cases where we knowingly disable the warning by using
"sched_annotate_sleep()", don't change the task state (that is used
for all core scheduling decisions), instead use '->task_state_change'
that is used for the debugging decision itself.
(Credit for the second part of the fix goes to Oleg Nesterov: "Can't we
avoid this subtle change in behaviour DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP adds?" with the
suggested change to use 'task_state_change' as part of the test)

Software writes poison data into the descriptor bytes[15:8] and upon
receiving the interrupt, if those bytes are overwritten by the hardware with
the valid data, software also reads bytes[7:0] and executes receive/tx
completion logic.
If the CPU executes the above two reads in out of order fashion, then the
bytes[7:0] will have older data and causing the kernel panic. We have to
force the order of the reads and thus this patch introduces read memory
barrier between these reads.

Toshiaki Makita says:
====================
Fix checksum error when using stacked vlan
When I was testing 802.1ad, I found several drivers don't take into
account 802.1ad or multiple vlans when retrieving L3 (IP/IPv6) or
L4 (TCP/UDP) protocol for checksum offload.
It is mainly due to vlan_get_protocol(), which extracts ether type only
when it is tagged with single 802.1Q. When 802.1ad is used or there are
multiple vlans, it extracts vlan protocol and drivers cannot determine
which L3/L4 protocol is used.
Those drivers, most of which have IP_CSUM/IPV6_CSUM features, get L3/L4
header-offset by software, so it seems that their checksum offload works
with multiple vlans if we can parse protocols correctly.
(They know mac header length, and probably don't care about what is in it.)
And another thing, some of Intel's drivers seem to use skb->protocol where
vlan_get_protocol() is more suitable.
I tested that at least igb/igbvf on I350 works with this patch set.
Note:
We can hand a double tagged packet with CHECKSUM_PARTIAL to a HW driver
by creating a vlan device on a bridge device and enabling vlan_filtering
of the bridge with 802.1ad protocol.

ixgbevf_tx_csum() fails to get the network protocol and checksum related

vlan_get_protocol() could not get network protocol if a skb has a 802.1ad
vlan tag or multiple vlans, which caused incorrect checksum calculation
in several drivers.
Fix vlan_get_protocol() to retrieve network protocol instead of incorrect
vlan protocol.
As the logic is the same as skb_network_protocol(), create a common helper
function __vlan_get_protocol() and call it from existing functions.

sctp_process_param
When making use of RFC5061, section 4.2.4. for setting the primary IP
address, we're passing a wrong parameter header to param_type2af(),
resulting always in NULL being returned.
At this point, param.p points to a sctp_addip_param struct, containing
a sctp_paramhdr (type = 0xc004, length = var), and crr_id as a correlation
id. Followed by that, as also presented in RFC5061 section 4.2.4., comes
the actual sctp_addr_param, which also contains a sctp_paramhdr, but
this time with the correct type SCTP_PARAM_IPV{4,6}_ADDRESS that
param_type2af() can make use of. Since we already hold a pointer to
addr_param from previous line, just reuse it for param_type2af().

the group number when calling the netlink_bind() and netlink_unbind()
callbacks.
The conversion is however incorrect since bitmask (1 << 0) needs to be
mapped to group number 1. Note that you cannot specify the group number 0
(usually known as _NONE) from setsockopt() using NETLINK_ADD_MEMBERSHIP
since this is rejected through -EINVAL.
This problem became noticeable since 97840cb ("netfilter: nfnetlink:
fix insufficient validation in nfnetlink_bind") when binding to bitmask
(1 << 0) in ctnetlink.

There is a race in the MIPS fork code which allows the child to get a
stale copy of parent MSA/FPU/DSP state that is active in hardware
registers when the fork() is called. This is because copy_thread() saves
the live register state into the child context only if the hardware is
currently in use, apparently on the assumption that the hardware state
cannot have been saved and disabled since the initial duplication of the
task_struct. However preemption is certainly possible during this
window.
An example sequence of events is as follows:
1) The parent userland process puts important data into saved floating
point registers ($f20-$f31), which are then dirty compared to the
process' stored context.
2) The parent process calls fork() which does a clone system call.
3) In the kernel, do_fork() -> copy_process() -> dup_task_struct() ->
arch_dup_task_struct() (which uses the weakly defined default
implementation). This duplicates the parent process' task context,
which includes a stale version of its FP context from when it was
last saved, probably some time before (1).
4) At some point before copy_process() calls copy_thread(), such as when
duplicating the memory map, the process is desceduled. Perhaps it is
preempted asynchronously, or perhaps it sleeps while blocked on a
mutex. The dirty FP state in the FP registers is saved to the parent
process' context and the FPU is disabled.
5) When the process is rescheduled again it continues copying state
until it gets to copy_thread(), which checks whether the FPU is in
use, so that it can copy that dirty state to the child process' task
context. Because of the deschedule however the FPU is not in use, so
the child process' context is left with stale FP context from the
last time the parent saved it (some time before (1)).
6) When the new child process is scheduled it reads the important data
from the saved floating point register, and ends up doing a NULL
pointer dereference as a result of the stale data.
This use of saved floating point registers across function calls can be
triggered fairly easily by explicitly using inline asm with a current
(MIPS R2) compiler, but is far more likely to happen unintentionally
with a MIPS R6 compiler where the FP registers are more likely to get
used as scratch registers for storing non-fp data.
It is easily fixed, in the same way that other architectures do it, by
overriding the implementation of arch_dup_task_struct() to sync the
dirty hardware state to the parent process' task context *prior* to
duplicating it, rather than copying straight to the child process' task
context in copy_thread(). Note, the FPU hardware is not disabled so the
parent process may continue executing with the live register context,
but now the child process is guaranteed to have an identical copy of it
at that point.

The following commits:
5890f70f15c52d (MIPS: Use dedicated exception handler if CPU supports RI/XI exceptions)
6575b1d4173eae (MIPS: kernel: cpu-probe: Detect unique RI/XI exceptions)
break the kernel for *all* existing MIPS CPUs that implement the
CP0_PageGrain[IEC] bit. They cause the TLB exception handlers to be
generated without the legacy execute-inhibit handling, but never set
the CP0_PageGrain[IEC] bit to activate the use of dedicated exception
vectors for execute-inhibit exceptions. The result is that upon
detection of an execute-inhibit violation, we loop forever in the TLB
exception handlers instead of sending SIGSEGV to the task.
If we are generating TLB exception handlers expecting separate
vectors, we must also enable the CP0_PageGrain[IEC] feature.
The bug was introduced in kernel version 3.17.

Commit 842dfc11ea9a ("MIPS: Fix build with binutils 2.24.51+") in v3.18
enabled -msoft-float and sprinkled ".set hardfloat" where necessary to
use FP instructions. However it missed enable_restore_fp_context() which
since v3.17 does a ctc1 with inline assembly, causing the following
assembler errors on Mentor's 2014.05 toolchain:
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:2913: Error: opcode not supported on this processor: mips32r2 (mips32r2) `ctc1 $2,$31'
scripts/Makefile.build:257: recipe for target 'arch/mips/kernel/traps.o' failed
Fix that to use the new write_32bit_cp1_register() macro so that ".set
hardfloat" is automatically added when -msoft-float is in use.

Add a write_32bit_cp1_register() macro to compliment the
read_32bit_cp1_register() macro. This is to abstract whether .set
hardfloat needs to be used based on GAS_HAS_SET_HARDFLOAT.
The implementation of _read_32bit_cp1_register() .sets mips1 due to
failure of gas v2.19 to assemble cfc1 for Octeon (see commit
25c300030016 ("MIPS: Override assembler target architecture for
octeon.")). I haven't copied this over to _write_32bit_cp1_register() as
I'm uncertain whether it applies to ctc1 too, or whether anybody cares
about that version of binutils any longer.
