[PATCH v4 2/5] fs/filesystems.c: downgrade user-reachable WARN_ONCE() to pr_warn_once()

by Eric Biggers

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers(a)google.com> After request_module(), nothing is stopping the module from being unloaded until someone takes a reference to it via try_get_module(). The WARN_ONCE() in get_fs_type() is thus user-reachable, via userspace running 'rmmod' concurrently. Since WARN_ONCE() is for kernel bugs only, not for user-reachable situations, downgrade this warning to pr_warn_once(). Keep it printed once only, since the intent of this warning is to detect a bug in modprobe at boot time. Printing the warning more than once wouldn't really provide any useful extra information.

[PATCH v4 1/5] kmod: make request_module() return an error when autoloading is disabled

by Eric Biggers

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers(a)google.com> It's long been possible to disable kernel module autoloading completely (while still allowing manual module insertion) by setting /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe to the empty string. This can be preferable to setting it to a nonexistent file since it avoids the overhead of an attempted execve(), avoids potential deadlocks, and avoids the call to security_kernel_module_request() and thus on SELinux-based systems eliminates the need to write SELinux rules to dontaudit module_request. However, when module autoloading is disabled in this way, request_module() returns 0. This is broken because callers expect 0 to mean that the module was successfully loaded. Apparently this was never noticed because this method of disabling module autoloading isn't used much, and also most callers don't use the return value of request_module() since it's always necessary to check whether the module registered its functionality or not anyway. But improperly returning 0 can indeed confuse a few callers, for example get_fs_type() in fs/filesystems.c where it causes a WARNING to be hit: if (!fs && (request_module("fs-%.*s", len, name) == 0)) { fs = __get_fs_type(name, len); WARN_ONCE(!fs, "request_module fs-%.*s succeeded, but still no fs?\n", len, name); } This is easily reproduced with: echo > /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe mount -t NONEXISTENT none / It causes: request_module fs-NONEXISTENT succeeded, but still no fs? WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1106 at fs/filesystems.c:275 get_fs_type+0xd6/0xf0 [...] This should actually use pr_warn_once() rather than WARN_ONCE(), since it's also user-reachable if userspace immediately unloads the module. Regardless, request_module() should correctly return an error when it fails. So let's make it return -ENOENT, which matches the error when the modprobe binary doesn't exist. I've also sent patches to document and test this case.

[PATCH v3 2/5] fs/filesystems.c: downgrade user-reachable WARN_ONCE() to pr_warn_once()

by Eric Biggers

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers(a)google.com> After request_module(), nothing is stopping the module from being unloaded until someone takes a reference to it via try_get_module(). The WARN_ONCE() in get_fs_type() is thus user-reachable, via userspace running 'rmmod' concurrently. Since WARN_ONCE() is for kernel bugs only, not for user-reachable situations, downgrade this warning to pr_warn_once().

[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.4 01/12] bnxt_en: reinitialize IRQs when MTU is modified

by Sasha Levin

From: Vasundhara Volam <vasundhara-v.volam(a)broadcom.com> [ Upstream commit a9b952d267e59a3b405e644930f46d252cea7122 ] MTU changes may affect the number of IRQs so we must call bnxt_close_nic()/bnxt_open_nic() with the irq_re_init parameter set to true. The reason is that a larger MTU may require aggregation rings not needed with smaller MTU. We may not be able to allocate the required number of aggregation rings and so we reduce the number of channels which will change the number of IRQs. Without this patch, it may crash eventually in pci_disable_msix() when the IRQs are not properly unwound. Fixes: c0c050c58d84 ("bnxt_en: New Broadcom ethernet driver.")
