Ext3 filesystems that are converted to use as many ext4 file system
features as possible will enable uninit_bg to speed up e2fsck times.
These file systems will have a native ext3 layout of inode tables and
block allocation bitmaps (as opposed to ext4's flex_bg layout).
Unfortunately, in these cases, when first allocating a block in an
uninitialized block group, ext4 would incorrectly calculate the number
of free blocks in that block group, and then errorneously report that
the file system was corrupt:
EXT4-fs error (device vdd): ext4_mb_generate_buddy:741: group 30, 32254 clusters in bitmap, 32258 in gd
This problem can be reproduced via:
mke2fs -q -t ext4 -O ^flex_bg /dev/vdd 5g
mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /mnt
fallocate -l 4600m /mnt/test
The problem was caused by a bone headed mistake in the check to see if a
particular metadata block was part of the block group.
Many thanks to Kees Cook for finding and bisecting the buggy commit
which introduced this bug (commit fd034a84e1, present since v3.2).

ipSystemStatsOutOctets):
The total number of octets in IP datagrams delivered to the lower

And ipIfStatsOutTransmits:
The total number of IP datagrams that this entity supplied to the

Therefore, IPSTATS_MIB_OUTOCTETS must be incremented when incrementing
IPSTATS_MIB_OUTFORWDATAGRAMS.
IP_UPD_PO_STATS is not used since ipIfStatsOutRequests must not

mm->rss_stat counters have per-task delta: task->rss_stat. Before
changing task->mm pointer the kernel must flush this delta with
sync_mm_rss().
do_exit() already calls sync_mm_rss() to flush the rss-counters before
committing the rss statistics into task->signal->maxrss, taskstats,
audit and other stuff. Unfortunately the kernel does this before
calling mm_release(), which can call put_user() for processing
task->clear_child_tid. So at this point we can trigger page-faults and
task->rss_stat becomes non-zero again. As a result mm->rss_stat becomes
inconsistent and check_mm() will print something like this:
| BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:1 val:-1
| BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff88020813c380 idx:2 val:1
This patch moves sync_mm_rss() into mm_release(), and moves mm_release()
out of do_exit() and calls it earlier. After mm_release() there should
be no pagefaults.

The memory the parameter __key points to is used as an iterator in
btree_get_prev(), so if we save off a bkey() pointer in retry_key and
then assign that to __key, we'll end up corrupting the btree internals
when we do eg
longcpy(__key, bkey(geo, node, i), geo->keylen);
to return the key value. What we should do instead is use longcpy() to
copy the key value that retry_key points to __key.
This can cause a btree to get corrupted by seemingly read-only
operations such as btree_for_each_safe.

Commit 17cf28afea ("mm/fs: remove truncate_range") removed the
truncate_range inode operation in favour of the fallocate file
operation.
When using SYSV IPC shared memory segments, calling madvise with the
MADV_REMOVE advice on an area of shared memory will attempt to invoke
the .fallocate function for the shm_file_operations, which is NULL and
therefore returns -EOPNOTSUPP to userspace. The previous behaviour
would inherit the inode_operations from the underlying tmpfs file and
invoke truncate_range there.
This patch restores the previous behaviour by wrapping the underlying
fallocate function in shm_fallocate, as we do for fsync.

Zero is written at clear_tid_address when the process exits. This
functionality is used by pthread_join().
We already have sys_set_tid_address() to change this address for the
current task but there is no way to obtain it from user space.
Without the ability to find this address and dump it we can't restore
pthread'ed apps which call pthread_join() once they have been restored.
This patch introduces the PR_GET_TID_ADDRESS prctl option which allows
the current process to obtain own clear_tid_address.

There is a system hang issue on imx6q which can easily be seen with
running a cpu hotplug stress testing (hotplug secondary cores from
user space via sysfs interface for thousands iterations).
It turns out that the issue is caused by coherency of the cpu that
is being shut down. When shutting down a cpu, we need to have the
cpu exit coherency to prevent it from receiving cache, TLB, or BTB
maintenance operations broadcast by other CPUs in the cluster.
Copy cpu_enter_lowpower() and cpu_leave_lowpower() from mach-vexpress
to have coherency properly handled in platform_cpu_die(), thus fix
the issue.

The nat_rtp_rtcp hook takes two separate parameters port and rtp_port.
port is expected to be the real h245 address (found inside the packet).
rtp_port is the even number closest to port (RTP ports are even and
RTCP ports are odd).
However currently, both port and rtp_port are having same value (both are
rounded to nearest even numbers).
This works well in case of openlogicalchannel with media (RTP/even) port.
But in case of openlogicalchannel for media control (RTCP/odd) port,
h245 address in the packet is wrongly modified to have an even port.
I am attaching a pcap demonstrating the problem, for any further analysis.

When a CPU is entering dyntick-idle mode, tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
calls rcu_needs_cpu() see if RCU needs that CPU, and, if not, computes the
next wakeup time based on the timer wheels. Only later, when actually
entering the idle loop, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will be invoked. In some
cases, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will post timers to wake the CPU back up.
But all for naught: The next wakeup time for the CPU has already been
computed, and posting a timer afterwards does not force that wakeup
time to be recomputed. This means that rcu_prepare_for_idle()'s have
no effect.
This is not a problem on a busy system because something else will wake
up the CPU soon enough. However, on lightly loaded systems, the CPU
might stay asleep for a considerable length of time. If that CPU has
a callback that the rest of the system is waiting on, the system might
run very slowly or (in theory) even hang.
This commit avoids this problem by having rcu_needs_cpu() give
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() an estimate of when RCU will need the CPU
to wake back up, which tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() takes into account
when programming the CPU's wakeup time. An alternative approach is
for rcu_prepare_for_idle() to use hrtimers instead of normal timers,
but timers are much more efficient than are hrtimers for frequently
and repeatedly posting and cancelling a given timer, which is exactly
what RCU_FAST_NO_HZ does.

The RCU_FAST_NO_HZ code relies on a number of per-CPU variables.
This works, but is hidden from someone scanning the data structures
in rcutree.h. This commit therefore converts these per-CPU variables
to fields in the per-CPU rcu_dynticks structures.

In the current code, a short dyntick-idle interval (where there is
at least one non-lazy callback on the CPU) and a long dyntick-idle
interval (where there are only lazy callbacks on the CPU) are traced
identically, which can be less than helpful. This commit therefore
emits different event traces in these two cases.

In the present implementations of CPU hotplug, the outgoing CPU is
guaranteed to run its stop-machine process on the way out, which
will guarantee that RCU_FAST_NO_HZ forces the CPU out of dyntick-idle
mode.
However, new versions of CPU hotplug might not work this way. This
commit therefore removes this design constraint by explicitly notifying
CPUs when they adopt non-lazy RCU callbacks.

A recent update to have tracing_on/off() only affect the ftrace ring
buffers instead of all ring buffers had a cut and paste error.
The tracing_off() did the exact same thing as tracing_on() and
would not actually turn off tracing. Unfortunately, tracing_off()
is more important to be working than tracing_on() as this is a key
development tool, as it lets the developer turn off tracing as soon
as a problem is discovered. It is also used by panic and oops code.
This bug also breaks the 'echo func:traceoff > set_ftrace_filter'

__css_put is using atomic_dec on the ref count, and then
looking at the ref count to make decisions. This is prone
to races, as someone else may decrement ref count between
our decrement and our decision. Instead, we should base our
decisions on the value that we decremented the ref count to.
(This results in an actual race on Google's kernel which I
haven't been able to reproduce on the upstream kernel. Having
said that, it's still incorrect by inspection).
