Pull ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt: "PeiyangX Qiu reported that if a module fails to load between calling ftrace_module_init() and do_init_module() that the allocations made in ftrace_module_init() will not be freed, resulting in a memory leak. The solution is to call ftrace_release_mod() on the failing module in the fail path befor do_init_module() is called. This will remove any allocations made for that module, and nothing if ftrace_module_init() wasn't called yet for that module. Note, once do_init_module() is called, the MODULE_GOING notifiers are called for the failed module, which calls into the ftrace code to do the proper clean up (basically calling ftrace_release_mod())" * tag 'trace-v4.4-rc4-4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ftrace/module: Call clean up function when module init fails early

ftrace/module: Call clean up function when module init fails early

2016-01-07T17:17:39+00:00

If the module init code fails after calling ftrace_module_init() and before calling do_init_module(), we can suffer from a memory leak. This is because ftrace_module_init() allocates pages to store the locations that ftrace hooks are placed in the module text. If do_init_module() fails, it still calls the MODULE_GOING notifiers which will tell ftrace to do a clean up of the pages it allocated for the module. But if load_module() fails before then, the pages allocated by ftrace_module_init() will never be freed. Call ftrace_release_mod() on the module if load_module() fails before getting to do_init_module().

Pull MTD fixes from Brian Norris: "Three last MTD fixes for v4.4. These are all fixes for regressions and bugs reported mid cycle. Unfortunately, some of them took a bit long to get proper testing and feedback. - Assign the default MTD name earlier in the registration process, so partition parsers (like cmdlinepart) see the right name. Without this, some systems may come up with unpartitioned flash. This was a v4.4-rc1 regression. - Revert some new Winbond SPI NOR flash unlocking/locking support; new code in v4.4 caused regressions on some Spansion flash. - Fix mis-typed parameter ordering in SPI NOR unlock function; this bug was introduced in v4.4-rc1" * tag 'for-linus-20160106' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-mtd: mtd: spi-nor: fix stm_is_locked_sr() parameters mtd: spi-nor: fix Spansion regressions (aliased with Winbond) mtd: fix cmdlinepart parser, early naming for auto-filled MTD

sched/core: Fix unserialized r-m-w scribbling stuff

2016-01-06T10:01:07+00:00

Some of the sched bitfieds (notably sched_reset_on_fork) can be set on other than current, this can cause the r-m-w to race with other updates. Since all the sched bits are serialized by scheduler locks, pull them in a separate word.

sched/core: Check tgid in is_global_init()

2016-01-06T10:01:06+00:00

Our global init task can have sub-threads, so ->pid check is not reliable enough for is_global_init(), we need to check tgid instead. This has been spotted by Oleg and a fix was proposed by Richard a long time ago (see the link below). Oleg wrote: : Because is_global_init() is only true for the main thread of /sbin/init. : : Just look at oom_unkillable_task(). It tries to not kill init. But, say, : select_bad_process() can happily find a sub-thread of is_global_init() : and still kill it. I recently hit the problem in question; re-sending the patch (to the best of my knowledge it has never been submitted) with updated function comment. Credit goes to Oleg and Richard.

net: filter: make JITs zero A for SKF_AD_ALU_XOR_X

2016-01-06T05:43:52+00:00

The SKF_AD_ALU_XOR_X ancillary is not like the other ancillary data instructions since it XORs A with X while all the others replace A with some loaded value. All the BPF JITs fail to clear A if this is used as the first instruction in a filter. This was found using american fuzzy lop. Add a helper to determine if A needs to be cleared given the first instruction in a filter, and use this in the JITs. Except for ARM, the rest have only been compile-tested.

mtd: spi-nor: fix Spansion regressions (aliased with Winbond)

2016-01-06T00:00:03+00:00

Spansion and Winbond have occasionally used the same manufacturer ID, and they don't support the same features. Particularly, writing SR=0 seems to break read access for Spansion's s25fl064k. Unfortunately, we don't currently have a way to differentiate these Spansion and Winbond parts, so rather than regressing support for these Spansion flash, let's drop the new Winbond lock/unlock support for now. We can try to address Winbond support during the next release cycle.

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe: "Make the block layer great again. Basically three amazing fixes in this pull request, split into 4 patches. Believe me, they should go into 4.4. Two of them fix a regression, the third and last fixes an easy-to-trigger bug. - Fix a bad irq enable through null_blk, for queue_mode=1 and using timer completions. Add a block helper to restart a queue asynchronously, and use that from null_blk. From me. - Fix a performance issue in NVMe. Some devices (Intel Pxxxx) expose a stripe boundary, and performance suffers if we cross it. We took that into account for merging, but not for the newer splitting code. Fix from Keith. - Fix a kernel oops in lightnvm with multiple channels.
