Casey Leedom 80ce3f67e7 cxgb4vf: fix mailbox data/control coherency domain race
For the VFs, the Mailbox Data "registers" are actually backed by
T4's "MA" interface rather than PL Registers (as is the case for
the PFs).  Because these are in different coherency domains, the
write to the VF's PL-register-backed Mailbox Control can race in
front of the writes to the MA-backed VF Mailbox Data "registers".
So we need to do a read-back on at least one byte of the VF Mailbox
Data registers before doing the write to the VF Mailbox Control
register.

amit salecha 0e5f20b656 qlcnic: fix flash fw version read
Driver is reading flash fw version from defined address, this address
may be invalid. Indeed Driver should read address for fw version through
flash layout table. Flash layout table has defined region and address for
fw version address should be read from fw image region.

Driver has check for old firmware, this bug can cause driver load fail.
This patch will try to read fw version from flash image region, if that fails,
read from defined address.

Dan Carpenter facb4edc1e phonet: some signedness bugs
Dan Rosenberg pointed out that there were some signed comparison bugs
in the phonet protocol.

http://marc.info/?l=full-disclosure&m=129424528425330&w=2

The problem is that we check for array overflows but "protocol" is
signed and we don't check for array underflows.  If you have already
have CAP_SYS_ADMIN then you could use the bugs to get root, or someone
could cause an oops by mistake.

Eric Dumazet 83723d6071 netfilter: x_tables: dont block BH while reading counters
Using "iptables -L" with a lot of rules have a too big BH latency.
Jesper mentioned ~6 ms and worried of frame drops.

Switch to a per_cpu seqlock scheme, so that taking a snapshot of
counters doesnt need to block BH (for this cpu, but also other cpus).

This adds two increments on seqlock sequence per ipt_do_table() call,
its a reasonable cost for allowing "iptables -L" not block BH
processing.

Lukas Czerner 9c52749232 ext3: Add FITRIM handling
The ioctl takes fstrim_range structure (defined in include/linux/fs.h) as an
argument specifying a range of filesystem to trim and the minimum size of an
continguous extent to trim. After the FITRIM is done, the number of bytes
passed from the filesystem down the block stack to the device for potential
discard is stored in fstrim_range.len.  This number is a maximum discard amount
from the storage device's perspective, because FITRIM called repeatedly will
keep sending the same sectors for discard.  fstrim_range.len will report the
same potential discard bytes each time, but only sectors which had been written
to between the discards would actually be discarded by the storage device.
Further, the kernel block layer reserves the right to adjust the discard ranges
to fit raid stripe geometry, non-trim capable devices in a LVM setup, etc.
These reductions would not be reflected in fstrim_range.len.

Thus fstrim_range.len can give the user better insight on how much storage
space has potentially been released for wear-leveling, but it needs to be one
of only one criteria the userspace tools take into account when trying to
optimize calls to FITRIM.

Lukas Czerner b853b96b1d ext3: Add batched discard support for ext3
Walk through allocation groups and trim all free extents. It can be
invoked through FITRIM ioctl on the file system. The main idea is to
provide a way to trim the whole file system if needed, since some SSD's
may suffer from performance loss after the whole device was filled (it
does not mean that fs is full!).

It search for free extents in allocation groups specified by Byte range
start -> start+len. When the free extent is within this range, blocks are
marked as used and then trimmed. Afterwards these blocks are marked as
free in per-group bitmap.

Commit 40389687 moved a call to ext4_forget() out of

bforget().  But that change unfortunately did not replace the call to
ext4_forget() with brelse(), which was needed to drop the in-use count
of the indirect block's buffer head, which lead to a memory leak when
deleting files that used indirect blocks.  Fix this.

Theodore Ts'o a5196f8cdf ext4: remove ext4_mb_return_to_preallocation()
This function was never implemented, except for a BUG_ON which was
tripping when ext4 is run without a journal.  The problem is that
although the comment asserts that "truncate (which is the only way to
free block) discards all preallocations", ext4_free_blocks() is also
called in various error recovery paths when blocks have been
allocated, but for various reasons, we were not able to use those data
blocks (for example, because we ran out of memory while trying to
manipulate the extent tree, or some other similar situation).

In addition to the fact that this function isn't implemented except
for the incorrect BUG_ON, the single caller of this function,
ext4_free_blocks(), doesn't use it all if the journal is enabled.

So remove the (stub) function entirely for now.  If we decide it's
better to add it back, it's only going to be useful with a relatively
large number of code changes anyway.

Jiaying Zhang 3889fd57ea ext4: flush the i_completed_io_list during ext4_truncate
Ted first found the bug when running 2.6.36 kernel with dioread_nolock
mount option that xfstests #13 complained about wrong file size during fsck.
However, the bug exists in the older kernels as well although it is
somehow harder to trigger.

The problem is that ext4_end_io_work() can happen after we have truncated an
inode to a smaller size. Then when ext4_end_io_work() calls 
ext4_convert_unwritten_extents(), we may reallocate some blocks that have 
been truncated, so the inode size becomes inconsistent with the allocated
blocks. 

The following patch flushes the i_completed_io_list during truncate to reduce 
the risk that some pending end_io requests are executed later and convert 
already truncated blocks to initialized. 

Note that although the fix helps reduce the problem a lot there may still 
be a race window between vmtruncate() and ext4_end_io_work(). The fundamental
problem is that if vmtruncate() is called without either i_mutex or i_alloc_sem
held, it can race with an ongoing write request so that the io_end request is
processed later when the corresponding blocks have been truncated.

Ted and I have discussed the problem offline and we saw a few ways to fix
the race completely:

a) We guarantee that i_mutex lock and i_alloc_sem write lock are both hold 
whenever vmtruncate() is called. The i_mutex lock prevents any new write
requests from entering writeback and the i_alloc_sem prevents the race
from ext4_page_mkwrite(). Currently we hold both locks if vmtruncate()
is called from do_truncate(), which is probably the most common case.
However, there are places where we may call vmtruncate() without holding
either i_mutex or i_alloc_sem. I would like to ask for other people's
opinions on what locks are expected to be held before calling vmtruncate().
There seems a disagreement among the callers of that function.

b) We change the ext4 write path so that we change the extent tree to contain 
the newly allocated blocks and update i_size both at the same time --- when 
the write of the data blocks is completed.

c) We add some additional locking to synchronize vmtruncate() and 
ext4_end_io_work(). This approach may have performance implications so we
need to be careful.

All of the above proposals may require more substantial changes, so
we may consider to take the following patch as a bandaid.

Jan Kara ca6e909f9b ext4: fix trimming of a single group
When ext4_trim_fs() is called to trim a part of a single group, the
logic will wrongly set last block of the interval to 'len' instead
of 'first_block + len'. Thus a shorter interval is possibly trimmed.
Fix it.
