2017-04-08scsi: sd: Remove LBPRZ dependency for discardsMartin K. Petersen
Separating discards and zeroout operations allows us to remove the LBPRZ block zeroing constraints from discards and honor the device preferences for UNMAP commands. If supported by the device, we'll also choose UNMAP over one of the WRITE SAME variants for discards. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

2017-04-08scsi: sd: Separate zeroout and discard command choicesMartin K. Petersen
Now that zeroout and discards are distinct operations we need to separate the policy of choosing the appropriate command. Create a zeroing_mode which can be one of: write: Zeroout assist not present, use regular WRITE writesame: Allow WRITE SAME(10/16) with a zeroed payload writesame_16_unmap: Allow WRITE SAME(16) with UNMAP writesame_10_unmap: Allow WRITE SAME(10) with UNMAP The last two are conditional on the device being thin provisioned with LBPRZ=1 and LBPWS=1 or LBPWS10=1 respectively. Whether to set the UNMAP bit or not depends on the REQ_NOUNMAP flag. And if none of the _unmap variants are supported, regular WRITE SAME will be used if the device supports it. The zeroout_mode is exported in sysfs and the detected mode for a given device can be overridden using the string constants above. With this change in place we can now issue WRITE SAME(16) with UNMAP set for block zeroing applications that require hard guarantees and logical_block_size granularity. And at the same time use the UNMAP command with the device's preferred granulary and alignment for discard operations. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

2017-04-08liquidio: fix VF incorrectly indicating that it successfully set its VLANFelix Manlunas
For security reasons, NIC firmware does not allow VF to set its VLAN if PF set it already. Firmware allows VF to set its VLAN if PF did not set it. After the VF instructs the firmware to set the VLAN, VF always indicates (via return 0) that the operation is successful--even for the times when it isn't. Put in a mechanism for the VF's set VLAN function to receive the firmware response code, then make that function return -EPERM if the firmware forbids the operation. Make that mechanism available for other functions that may, in the future, be interested in receiving the response code from the firmware. That mechanism involves adding new fields to struct octnic_ctrl_pkt, so make all users of struct octnic_ctrl_pkt initialize the struct to zero before using it; otherwise, the mechanism might act on uninitialized garbage.

2017-04-08sysfs: be careful of error returns from ops->show()NeilBrown
ops->show() can return a negative error code. Commit 65da3484d9be ("sysfs: correctly handle short reads on PREALLOC attrs.") (in v4.4) caused this to be stored in an unsigned 'size_t' variable, so errors would look like large numbers. As a result, if an error is returned, sysfs_kf_read() will return the value of 'count', typically 4096. Commit 17d0774f8068 ("sysfs: correctly handle read offset on PREALLOC attrs") (in v4.8) extended this error to use the unsigned large 'len' as a size for memmove(). Consequently, if ->show returns an error, then the first read() on the sysfs file will return 4096 and could return uninitialized memory to user-space. If the application performs a subsequent read, this will trigger a memmove() with extremely large count, and is likely to crash the machine is bizarre ways. This bug can currently only be triggered by reading from an md sysfs attribute declared with __ATTR_PREALLOC() during the brief period between when mddev_put() deletes an mddev from the ->all_mddevs list, and when mddev_delayed_delete() - which is scheduled on a workqueue - completes. Before this, an error won't be returned by the ->show() After this, the ->show() won't be called. I can reproduce it reliably only by putting delay like usleep_range(500000,700000); early in mddev_delayed_delete(). Then after creating an md device md0 run echo clear > /sys/block/md0/md/array_state; cat /sys/block/md0/md/array_state The bug can be triggered without the usleep.

If userspace wants to receive the socket cookie for a given socket fd, it must send a SOCK_DIAG_BY_FAMILY dump request and look for the 5-tuple. This is slow and can be ambiguous in the case of sockets that have the same 5-tuple (e.g., tproxy / transparent sockets, SO_REUSEPORT sockets, etc.). As shown in the example program. The xt_eBPF program is using socket cookie to record the network traffics statistics and with the socket cookie retrieved by getsockopt.

2017-04-08staging: android: ashmem: lseek failed due to no FMODE_LSEEK.Shuxiao Zhang
vfs_llseek will check whether the file mode has FMODE_LSEEK, no return failure. But ashmem can be lseek, so add FMODE_LSEEK to ashmem file. Comment From Greg Hackmann: ashmem_llseek() passes the llseek() call through to the backing shmem file. 91360b02ab48 ("ashmem: use vfs_llseek()") changed this from directly calling the file's llseek() op into a VFS layer call. This also adds a check for the FMODE_LSEEK bit, so without that bit ashmem_llseek() now always fails with -ESPIPE.
