Suppose you have the following tree in snap1 on a file system mounted with -o
inode_cache so that inode numbers are recycled
└── [ 258] a
└── [ 257] b
and then you remove b, rename a to c, and then re-create b in c so you have the
following tree
└── [ 258] c
└── [ 257] b
and then you try to do an incremental send you will hit
ASSERT(pending_move == 0);
in process_all_refs(). This is because we assume that any recycling of inodes
will not have a pending change in our path, which isn't the case. This is the
case for the DELETE side, since we want to remove the old file using the old
path, but on the create side we could have a pending move and need to do the
normal pending rename dance. So remove this ASSERT() and put a comment about
why we ignore pending_move. Thanks,

The Haswell Power Control Unit has a non-PCI register (CONFIG_TDP_NOMINAL)
where BAR 0 is supposed to be. This is erratum HSE43 in the spec update
referenced below:
The PCIe* Base Specification indicates that Configuration Space Headers
have a base address register at offset 0x10. Due to this erratum, the
Power Control Unit's CONFIG_TDP_NOMINAL CSR (Bus 1; Device 30; Function
3; Offset 0x10) is located where a base register is expected.
Mark the PCU as having non-compliant BARs so we don't try to probe any of
them. There are no other BARs on this device.
Rename the quirk so it's not Broadwell-specific.

Commit d837a49bd5 ("ovl: fix POSIX ACL setting") switches from
iop->setxattr from ovl_setxattr to generic_setxattr, so switch from
ovl_removexattr to generic_removexattr as well. As far as permission
checking goes, the same rules should apply in either case.
While doing that, rename ovl_setxattr to ovl_xattr_set to indicate that
this is not an iop->setxattr implementation and remove the unused inode
argument.

Some operations (setxattr/chmod) can make the cached acl stale. We either
need to clear overlay's acl cache for the affected inode or prevent acl
caching on the overlay altogether. Preventing caching has the following
advantages:
- no double caching, less memory used
- overlay cache doesn't go stale when fs clears it's own cache
Possible disadvantage is performance loss. If that becomes a problem
get_acl() can be optimized for overlayfs.
This patch disables caching by pre setting i_*acl to a value that
- has bit 0 set, so is_uncached_acl() will return true
- is not equal to ACL_NOT_CACHED, so get_acl() will not overwrite it
The constant -3 was chosen for this purpose.
Fixes: 39a25b2b37 ("ovl: define ->get_acl() for overlay inodes")
Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>
Instead of calling ->get_acl() directly, use get_acl() to get the cached
value.
We will have the acl cached on the underlying inode anyway, because we do
permission checking on the both the overlay and the underlying fs.
So, since we already have double caching, this improves performance without
any cost.

When mounting overlayfs it needs a clean "work" directory under the
supplied workdir.
Previously the mount code removed this directory if it already existed and
created a new one. If the removal failed (e.g. directory was not empty)
then it fell back to a read-only mount not using the workdir.
While this has never been reported, it is possible to get a non-empty
"work" dir from a previous mount of overlayfs in case of crash in the
middle of an operation using the work directory.
In this case the left over state should be discarded and the overlay
filesystem will be consistent, guaranteed by the atomicity of operations on
moving to/from the workdir to the upper layer.
This patch implements cleaning out any files left in workdir. It is
implemented using real recursion for simplicity, but the depth is limited
to 2, because the worst case is that of a directory containing whiteouts
under "work".

Clear out posix acl xattrs on workdir and also reset the mode after
creation so that an inherited sgid bit is cleared.
Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>
Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org>
Setting MS_POSIXACL in sb->s_flags has the side effect of passing mode to
create functions without masking against umask.
Another problem when creating over a whiteout is that the default posix acl
is not inherited from the parent dir (because the real parent dir at the
time of creation is the work directory).
Fix these problems by:
a) If upper fs does not have MS_POSIXACL, then mask mode with umask.
b) If creating over a whiteout, call posix_acl_create() to get the
inherited acls. After creation (but before moving to the final
destination) set these acls on the created file. posix_acl_create() also
updates the file creation mode as appropriate.

Dmitry reported a double free on kcm socket, which could

#include <sys/syscall.h>

{
int fd = syscall(SYS_socket, 0x29ul, 0x5ul, 0x0ul, 0, 0, 0);
syscall(SYS_ioctl, fd, 0x89e2ul, 0x20a98000ul, 0, 0, 0);
return 0;
}
This is because on the error path, after we install
the new socket file, we call sock_release() to clean
up the socket, which leaves the fd pointing to a freed
socket. Fix this by calling sys_close() on that fd
directly.

net: ethernet: mediatek: a couple of fixes
a couple of fixes come out from integrating with linux-4.8 rc1
they all are verified and workable on linux-4.8 rc1
Changes since v1:
- usage of loops to work out if all required clock are ready instead
of tedious coding
- remove redundant pinctrl setup that is already done by core driver
thanks for careful and patient reviewing by Andrew Lunn
- splitting distinct changes into the separate patches
- change variable naming from err to ret for readable coding
Changes since v2:
- restore to original clock disabling sequence that is changed
accidentally in the last version
- refine the commit log that would cause misunderstanding what has
been done in the changes
- refine the commit log that would cause footnote losing due to
improper delimiter use
Changes since v3:
- fix git rejects caused by mixing a change from net-next, so
remake the patch set based on the current net branch again.

a lot of parts in the driver uses devm_* APIs to gain benefits from the
device resource management, so devm_mdiobus_alloc is also used instead
of mdiobus_alloc to have more elegant code flow.
Using common code provided by the devm_* helps to
1) have simplified the code flow as [1] says
2) decrease the risk of incorrect error handling by human
3) only a few drivers used it since it was proposed on linux 3.16,
so just hope to promote for this.

We used to delay switching to the new credentials until after we had

odd to begin with, since the new executable will actually then _run_
with the new creds, but whatever.
The bigger problem was that we also want to make sure that we turn off
prof events and tracing before we start mapping the new executable
state. So while this is a cleanup, it's also a fix for a possible

There is a potential deadlock in superblock write. Discard could zero data, so
before discard we must make sure superblock is updated to new log tail.
Updating superblock (either directly call md_update_sb() or depend on md
thread) must hold reconfig mutex. On the other hand, raid5_quiesce is called
with reconfig_mutex hold. The first step of raid5_quiesce() is waitting for all
IO finish, hence waitting for reclaim thread, while reclaim thread is calling
this function and waitting for reconfig mutex. So there is a deadlock. We
workaround this issue with a trylock. The downside of the solution is we could
miss discard if we can't take reconfig mutex. But this should happen rarely
(mainly in raid array stop), so miss discard shouldn't be a big problem.

In hwdep interface of fireworks driver, accessing to user space is in a
critical section with disabled local interrupt. Depending on architecture,
accessing to user space can cause page fault exception. Then local
processor stores machine status and handles the synchronous event. A
handler corresponding to the event can call task scheduler to wait for
preparing pages. In a case of usage of single core processor, the state to
disable local interrupt is worse because it don't handle usual interrupts
from hardware.
