Subject: [media] media/dvb-core: Race condition when writing to CAM
From: Jasmin J <jasmin(a)anw.at>
[ Upstream commit e7080d4471d805d921a9ea21b32f911a91e248cb ]
It started with a sporadic message in syslog: "CAM tried to send a
buffer larger than the ecount size" This message is not the fault
itself, but a consecutive fault, after a read error from the CAM. This
happens only on several CAMs, several hardware, and of course sporadic.
It is a consecutive fault, if the last read from the CAM did fail. I
guess this will not happen on all CAMs, but at least it did on mine.
There was a write error to the CAM and during the re-initialization
procedure, the CAM finished the last read, although it got a RS.
The write error to the CAM happened because a race condition between HC
write, checking DA and FR.
This patch added an additional check for DA(RE), just after checking FR.
It is important to read the CAMs status register again, to give the CAM
the necessary time for a proper reaction to HC. Please note the
description within the source code (patch below).

[ Upstream commit 380a6c86457573aa42d27ae11e025eb25941a0b7 ]
On faster CPUs a delay is required after the resume command and the restart command. Without the delay, the restart command often returns -EREMOTEIO and the Si2168 does not restart.
Note that this patch fixes the same issue as https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/44304/, but I believe my udelay() fix addresses the actual problem.

Subject: dm: ensure bio submission follows a depth-first tree walk
From: NeilBrown <neilb(a)suse.com>
[ Upstream commit 18a25da84354c6bb655320de6072c00eda6eb602 ]
A dm device can, in general, represent a tree of targets, each of which
handles a sub-range of the range of blocks handled by the parent.
The bio sequencing managed by generic_make_request() requires that bios
are generated and handled in a depth-first manner. Each call to a
make_request_fn() may submit bios to a single member device, and may
submit bios for a reduced region of the same device as the
make_request_fn.
In particular, any bios submitted to member devices must be expected to
be processed in order, so a later one must never wait for an earlier
one.
This ordering is usually achieved by using bio_split() to reduce a bio
to a size that can be completely handled by one target, and resubmitting
the remainder to the originating device. bio_queue_split() shows the
canonical approach.
dm doesn't follow this approach, largely because it has needed to split
bios since long before bio_split() was available. It currently can
submit bios to separate targets within the one dm_make_request() call.
Dependencies between these targets, as can happen with dm-snap, can
cause deadlocks if either bios gets stuck behind the other in the queues
managed by generic_make_request(). This requires the 'rescue'
functionality provided by dm_offload_{start,end}.
Some of this requirement can be removed by changing the order of bio
submission to follow the canonical approach. That is, if dm finds that
it needs to split a bio, the remainder should be sent to
generic_make_request() rather than being handled immediately. This
delays the handling until the first part is completely processed, so the
deadlock problems do not occur.
__split_and_process_bio() can be called both from dm_make_request() and
from dm_wq_work(). When called from dm_wq_work() the current approach
is perfectly satisfactory as each bio will be processed immediately.
When called from dm_make_request(), current->bio_list will be non-NULL,
and in this case it is best to create a separate "clone" bio for the
remainder.
When we use bio_clone_bioset() to split off the front part of a bio
and chain the two together and submit the remainder to
generic_make_request(), it is important that the newly allocated
bio is used as the head to be processed immediately, and the original
bio gets "bio_advance()"d and sent to generic_make_request() as the
remainder. Otherwise, if the newly allocated bio is used as the
remainder, and if it then needs to be split again, then the next
bio_clone_bioset() call will be made while holding a reference a bio
(result of the first clone) from the same bioset. This can potentially
exhaust the bioset mempool and result in a memory allocation deadlock.
Note that there is no race caused by reassigning cio.io->bio after already
calling __map_bio(). This bio will only be dereferenced again after
dec_pending() has found io->io_count to be zero, and this cannot happen
before the dec_pending() call at the end of __split_and_process_bio().
To provide the clone bio when splitting, we use q->bio_split. This
was previously being freed by bio-based dm to avoid having excess
rescuer threads. As bio_split bio sets no longer create rescuer
threads, there is little cost and much gain from restoring the
q->bio_split bio set.

_channel_ is being dereferenced before it is null checked, hence there is a

after _channel_ has been null checked.

[ Upstream commit cf147085fdda044622973a12e4e06f1c753ab677 ]
ieee80211_frame_acked is called when a frame is acked by
the peer. In case this is a management frame, we check
if this an SMPS frame, in which case we can update our
antenna configuration.
When we parse the management frame we look at the category
in case it is an action frame. That byte sits after the IV
in case the frame was encrypted. This means that if the
frame was encrypted, we basically look at the IV instead
of looking at the category. It is then theorically
possible that we think that an SMPS action frame was acked
where really we had another frame that was encrypted.
Since the only management frame whose ack needs to be
tracked is the SMPS action frame, and that frame is not
a robust management frame, it will never be encrypted.
The easiest way to fix this problem is then to not look
at frames that were encrypted.

Subject: KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Exit KVM on failed mapping
From: Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik(a)ozlabs.ru>
[ Upstream commit bd9166ffe624000140fc6b606b256df01fc0d060 ]
At the moment kvmppc_mmu_map_page() returns -1 if
mmu_hash_ops.hpte_insert() fails for any reason so the page fault handler
resumes the guest and it faults on the same address again.
This adds distinction to kvmppc_mmu_map_page() to return -EIO if
mmu_hash_ops.hpte_insert() failed for a reason other than full pteg.
At the moment only pSeries_lpar_hpte_insert() returns -2 if
plpar_pte_enter() failed with a code other than H_PTEG_FULL.
Other mmu_hash_ops.hpte_insert() instances can only fail with
-1 "full pteg".
With this change, if PR KVM fails to update HPT, it can signal
the userspace about this instead of returning to guest and having
the very same page fault over and over again.

Subject: ip6_vti: adjust vti mtu according to mtu of lower device
From: Alexey Kodanev <alexey.kodanev(a)oracle.com>
[ Upstream commit 53c81e95df1793933f87748d36070a721f6cb287 ]
LTP/udp6_ipsec_vti tests fail when sending large UDP datagrams over
ip6_vti that require fragmentation and the underlying device has an
MTU smaller than 1500 plus some extra space for headers. This happens
because ip6_vti, by default, sets MTU to ETH_DATA_LEN and not updating
it depending on a destination address or link parameter. Further
attempts to send UDP packets may succeed because pmtu gets updated on
ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG in vti6_err().
In case the lower device has larger MTU size, e.g. 9000, ip6_vti works
but not using the possible maximum size, output packets have 1500 limit.
The above cases require manual MTU setup after ip6_vti creation. However
ip_vti already updates MTU based on lower device with ip_tunnel_bind_dev().
Here is the example when the lower device MTU is set to 9000:
# ip a sh ltp_ns_veth2
ltp_ns_veth2@if7: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 9000 ...
inet 10.0.0.2/24 scope global ltp_ns_veth2
inet6 fd00::2/64 scope global
# ip li add vti6 type vti6 local fd00::2 remote fd00::1
# ip li show vti6
vti6@NONE: <POINTOPOINT,NOARP> mtu 1500 ...
link/tunnel6 fd00::2 peer fd00::1
After the patch:
# ip li add vti6 type vti6 local fd00::2 remote fd00::1
# ip li show vti6
vti6@NONE: <POINTOPOINT,NOARP> mtu 8832 ...
link/tunnel6 fd00::2 peer fd00::1
