Applications use -ECONNREFUSED as returned from write() in order to
determine that a socket should be closed. However, when using connected
dgram unix sockets in a poll/write loop, a final POLLOUT event can be
missed when the remote end closes. Thus, the poll is stuck forever:
thread 1 (client) thread 2 (server)
connect() to server
write() returns -EAGAIN
unix_dgram_poll()
-> unix_recvq_full() is true
close()
->unix_release_sock()
->wake_up_interruptible_all()
unix_dgram_poll() (due to the
wake_up_interruptible_all)
-> unix_recvq_full() still is true
->free all skbs
Now thread 1 is stuck and will not receive anymore wakeups. In this
case, when thread 1 gets the -EAGAIN, it has not queued any skbs
otherwise the 'free all skbs' step would in fact cause a wakeup and
a POLLOUT return. So the race here is probably fairly rare because
it means there are no skbs that thread 1 queued and that thread 1
schedules before the 'free all skbs' step.
This issue was reported as a hang when /dev/log is closed.
The fix is to signal POLLOUT if the socket is marked as SOCK_DEAD, which
means a subsequent write() will get -ECONNREFUSED.

====================
l2tp: sanitise MTU handling on sessions
Most of the code handling sessions' MTU has no effect. The ->mtu field
in struct l2tp_session might be used at session creation time, but
neither PPP nor Ethernet pseudo-wires take updates into account.
L2TP sessions don't have a concept of MTU, which is the reason why
->mtu is mostly ignored. MTU should remain a network device thing.
Therefore this patch set does not try to propagate/update ->mtu to/from
the device. That would complicate the code unnecessarily. Instead this
field and the associated ioctl commands and netlink attributes are
removed.
Patch #1 defines l2tp_tunnel_dst_mtu() in order to simplify the
following patches. Then patches #2 and #3 remove MTU handling from PPP
and Ethernet pseudo-wires respectively.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
This attribute's handling is broken. It can only be used when creating
Ethernet pseudo-wires, in which case its value can be used as the
initial MTU for the l2tpeth device.
However, when handling update requests, L2TP_ATTR_MTU only modifies
session->mtu. This value is never propagated to the l2tpeth device.
Dump requests also return the value of session->mtu, which is not
synchronised anymore with the device MTU.
The same problem occurs if the device MTU is properly updated using the
generic IFLA_MTU attribute. In this case, session->mtu is not updated,
and L2TP_ATTR_MTU will report an invalid value again when dumping the
session.
It does not seem worthwhile to complexify l2tp_eth.c to synchronise
session->mtu with the device MTU. Even the ip-l2tp manpage advises to
use 'ip link' to initialise the MTU of l2tpeth devices (iproute2 does
not handle L2TP_ATTR_MTU at all anyway). So let's just ignore it
entirely.

The value of the session's .mtu field, as defined by
pppol2tp_connect() or pppol2tp_session_create(), is later overwritten
by pppol2tp_session_init() (unless getting the tunnel's socket PMTU
fails). This field is then only used when setting the PPP channel's MTU
in pppol2tp_connect().
Furthermore, the SIOC[GS]IFMTU ioctls only act on the session's .mtu
without propagating this value to the PPP channel, making them useless.
This patch initialises the PPP channel's MTU directly and ignores the
session's .mtu entirely. MTU is still computed by subtracting the
PPPOL2TP_HEADER_OVERHEAD constant. It is not optimal, but that doesn't
really matter: po->chan.mtu is only used when the channel is part of a
multilink PPP bundle. Running multilink PPP over packet switched
networks is certainly not going to be efficient, so not picking the
best MTU does not harm (in the worst case, packets will just be
fragmented by the underlay).
The SIOC[GS]IFMTU ioctls are removed entirely (as opposed to simply
ignored), because these ioctls commands are part of the requests that
should be handled generically by the socket layer. PX_PROTO_OL2TP was
the only socket type abusing these ioctls.

Add clock config and pm support to bcm iProc mdio mux
The patchset extends the Broadcom iProc mdio mux to add support for
suspend/resume and the ability to configure the internal clock
divider. The patchset also sets the scan control register to
disable external master access.
The base address of the mdio-mux-bcm-iproc is modified to point to the
start of the mdio block's address space, to be able to access all the
mdio's registers. The missing registers are required to configure the
internal clock divider registers in some of the Broadcom SoC's.
Changes from v3:
- Removed 'platform_set_drvdata(pdev, NULL)' call (in patch 5/8)
- Fixed the return code handling for the devm_clk_get() call (in patch
7/8)
- Added Reviewed-by tag to Patch 8/8
Changes from v2:
- Addressed Andrew's comments:
- Moved to using devm_mdiobus_alloc. Added this as a separate patch.
- Changed to reverse christmas tree order for variable declaration in
the clock patch
- Addressed Florian's comments:
- Removed null checks for the clock before calling unprepare in
both clock and pm patches.
- Added check for EPROBE_DEFER when fetching the clock in the clock
patch.
- The patch to use the devm API has been added before the clock & pm
patches. This patch is now patch '5' in the series.
- Added reviewed-by tags to commit messages of patches which remain
unmodified from v2.
- Modified PM patch to use platform_get_drvdata() in suspend/resume
API's, similar to the recent fix that went in for the remove()
api.
Changes from v1:
- Addressed Andrew's comments.
- Reworked the patches to be based on 'net-next'
- Removed 'fixes' from the commit messages, the changes are related
to the new features being added.
- Maintained backward compatibility to older dt-blob's specifying
base addresse with an offset. The correction is applied in the
driver and a message is printed to update the dt-blob.
- Re-worked and re-ordered the last four patches (4-7).
- Added setting of the scan control register as a new patch
- Added a call to 'clk_prepare_enable()' in the patch that adds
the clock config support, removed the debug message when clock
is not passed.
- Simplified the pm support patch (removed the array used for the
save/restore logic).

Commit 2c4541e24c ("mm: use vma_init() to initialize VMAs on stack and
data segments") tried to initialize various left-over ad-hoc vma's
"properly", but actually made things worse for the temporary vma's used
for TLB flushing.
vma_init() doesn't actually initialize all of the vma, just a few
fields, so doing something like
- struct vm_area_struct vma = { .vm_mm = tlb->mm, };
+ struct vm_area_struct vma;
+
+ vma_init(&vma, tlb->mm);
was actually very bad: instead of having a nicely initialized vma with
every field but "vm_mm" zeroed, you'd have an entirely uninitialized vma
with only a couple of fields initialized. And they weren't even fields
that the code in question mostly cared about.
The flush_tlb_range() function takes a "struct vma" rather than a
"struct mm_struct", because a few architectures actually care about what
kind of range it is - being able to only do an ITLB flush if it's a
range that doesn't have data accesses enabled, for example. And all the
normal users already have the vma for doing the range invalidation.
But a few people want to call flush_tlb_range() with a range they just
made up, so they also end up using a made-up vma. x86 just has a
special "flush_tlb_mm_range()" function for this, but other
architectures (arm and ia64) do the "use fake vma" thing instead, and
thus got caught up in the vma_init() changes.
At the same time, the TLB flushing code really doesn't care about most
other fields in the vma, so vma_init() is just unnecessary and
pointless.
This fixes things by having an explicit "this is just an initializer for
the TLB flush" initializer macro, which is used by the arm/arm64/ia64
people who mis-use this interface with just a dummy vma.
