Commit d7a49086f263164a (arm64: cpuinfo: print info for all CPUs)
attempted to clean up /proc/cpuinfo, but due to concerns regarding
further changes was reverted in commit 5e39977edf6500fd (Revert "arm64:
cpuinfo: print info for all CPUs").
There are two major issues with the arm64 /proc/cpuinfo format
currently:
* The "Features" line describes (only) the 64-bit hwcaps, which is
problematic for some 32-bit applications which attempt to parse it. As
the same names are used for analogous ISA features (e.g. aes) despite
these generally being architecturally unrelated, it is not possible to
simply append the 64-bit and 32-bit hwcaps in a manner that might not
be misleading to some applications.
Various potential solutions have appeared in vendor kernels. Typically
the format of the Features line varies depending on whether the task
is 32-bit.
* Information is only printed regarding a single CPU. This does not
match the ARM format, and does not provide sufficient information in
big.LITTLE systems where CPUs are heterogeneous. The CPU information
printed is queried from the current CPU's registers, which is racy
w.r.t. cross-cpu migration.
This patch attempts to solve these issues. The following changes are
made:
* When a task with a LINUX32 personality attempts to read /proc/cpuinfo,
the "Features" line contains the decoded 32-bit hwcaps, as with the
arm port. Otherwise, the decoded 64-bit hwcaps are shown. This aligns
with the behaviour of COMPAT_UTS_MACHINE and COMPAT_ELF_PLATFORM. In
the absense of compat support, the Features line is empty.
The set of hwcaps injected into a task's auxval are unaffected.
* Properties are printed per-cpu, as with the ARM port. The per-cpu
information is queried from pre-recorded cpu information (as used by
the sanity checks).
* As with the previous attempt at fixing up /proc/cpuinfo, the hardware
field is removed. The only users so far are 32-bit applications tied
to particular boards, so no portable applications should be affected,
and this should prevent future tying to particular boards.
The following differences remain:
* No model_name is printed, as this cannot be queried from the hardware
and cannot be provided in a stable fashion. Use of the CPU
{implementor,variant,part,revision} fields is sufficient to identify a
CPU and is portable across arm and arm64.
* The following system-wide properties are not provided, as they are not
possible to provide generally. Programs relying on these are already
tied to particular (32-bit only) boards:
- Hardware
- Revision
- Serial
No software has yet been identified for which these remaining
differences are problematic.

Nilfs2 eventually hangs in a stress test with fsstress program. This
issue was caused by the following deadlock over I_SYNC flag between
nilfs_segctor_thread() and writeback_sb_inodes():
nilfs_segctor_thread()
nilfs_segctor_thread_construct()
nilfs_segctor_unlock()
nilfs_dispose_list()
iput()
iput_final()
evict()
inode_wait_for_writeback() * wait for I_SYNC flag
writeback_sb_inodes()
* set I_SYNC flag on inode->i_state
__writeback_single_inode()
do_writepages()
nilfs_writepages()
nilfs_construct_dsync_segment()
nilfs_segctor_sync()
* wait for completion of segment constructor
inode_sync_complete()
* clear I_SYNC flag after __writeback_single_inode() completed
writeback_sb_inodes() calls do_writepages() for dirty inodes after
setting I_SYNC flag on inode->i_state. do_writepages() in turn calls
nilfs_writepages(), which can run segment constructor and wait for its
completion. On the other hand, segment constructor calls iput(), which
can call evict() and wait for the I_SYNC flag on
inode_wait_for_writeback().
Since segment constructor doesn't know when I_SYNC will be set, it
cannot know whether iput() will block or not unless inode->i_nlink has a
non-zero count. We can prevent evict() from being called in iput() by
implementing sop->drop_inode(), but it's not preferable to leave inodes
with i_nlink == 0 for long periods because it even defers file
truncation and inode deallocation. So, this instead resolves the
deadlock by calling iput() asynchronously with a workqueue for inodes
with i_nlink == 0.
The carry from the 64->32bits folding was dropped, e.g with:
saddr=0xFFFFFFFF daddr=0xFF0000FF len=0xFFFF proto=0 sum=1,
csum_tcpudp_nofold returned 0 instead of 1.

walk_page_range() silently skips vma having VM_PFNMAP set, which leads
to undesirable behaviour at client end (who called walk_page_range).
Userspace applications get the wrong data, so the effect is like just
confusing users (if the applications just display the data) or sometimes
killing the processes (if the applications do something with
misunderstanding virtual addresses due to the wrong data.)
For example for pagemap_read, when no callbacks are called against
VM_PFNMAP vma, pagemap_read may prepare pagemap data for next virtual
address range at wrong index.
Eventually userspace may get wrong pagemap data for a task.
Corresponding to a VM_PFNMAP marked vma region, kernel may report
mappings from subsequent vma regions. User space in turn may account
more pages (than really are) to the task.
In my case I was using procmem, procrack (Android utility) which uses
pagemap interface to account RSS pages of a task. Due to this bug it
was giving a wrong picture for vmas (with VM_PFNMAP set).
Commit c11f1df5003d534fd067f0168bfad7befffb3b5c
requires writers to wait for any pending oplock break handler to
complete before proceeding to write. This is done by waiting on bit
CIFS_INODE_PENDING_OPLOCK_BREAK in cifsFileInfo->flags. This bit is
cleared by the oplock break handler job queued on the workqueue once it
has completed handling the oplock break allowing writers to proceed with
writing to the file.
While testing, it was noticed that the filehandle could be closed while
there is a pending oplock break which results in the oplock break
handler on the cifsiod workqueue being cancelled before it has had a
chance to execute and clear the CIFS_INODE_PENDING_OPLOCK_BREAK bit.
Any subsequent attempt to write to this file hangs waiting for the
CIFS_INODE_PENDING_OPLOCK_BREAK bit to be cleared.
We fix this by ensuring that we also clear the bit
CIFS_INODE_PENDING_OPLOCK_BREAK when we remove the oplock break handler
from the workqueue.
The bug was found by Red Hat QA while testing using ltp's fsstress
command.

Commit e1a5848e3398 ("ARM: 7924/1: mm: don't bother with reserved ttbr0
when running with LPAE") removed the use of the reserved TTBR0 value
for LPAE systems, since the ASID is held in the TTBR and can be updated
atomicly with the pgd of the next mm.
Unfortunately, this patch forgot to update flush_context, which
deliberately avoids marking the local active ASID as allocated, since we
used to switch via ASID zero and didn't need to allocate the ASID of
the previous mm. The side-effect of this is that we can allocate the
same ASID to the next mm and, between flushing the local TLB and updating
TTBR0, we can perform speculative TLB fills for userspace nG mappings
using the page table of the previous mm.
The consequence of this is that the next mm can erroneously hit some
mappings of the previous mm. Note that this was made significantly
harder to hit by a391263cd84e ("ARM: 8203/1: mm: try to re-use old ASID
assignments following a rollover") but is still theoretically possible.
This patch fixes the problem by removing the code from flush_context
that forces the allocated ASID to zero for the local CPU. Many thanks
to the Broadcom guys for tracking this one down.

As printk() invocation can cause e.g. a TLB miss, printk() cannot be
called before the exception handlers have been properly initialized.
This can happen e.g. when netconsole has been loaded as a kernel module
and the TLB table has been cleared when a CPU was offline.
Call cpu_report() in start_secondary() only after the exception handlers
have been initialized to fix this.
Without the patch the kernel will randomly either lockup or crash
after a CPU is onlined and the console driver is a module.
octeon_cpu_disable() will unconditionally enable interrupts when called.
We can assume that the routine is always called with interrupts disabled,
so just delete the incorrect local_irq_disable/enable().
The patch fixes the following crash when offlining a CPU:
If the irq_chip does not define .irq_disable, any call to disable_irq
will defer disabling the IRQ until it fires while marked as disabled.
This assumes that the handler function checks for this condition, which
handle_percpu_irq does not. In this case, calling disable_irq leads to
an IRQ storm, if the interrupt fires while disabled.
This optimization is only useful when disabling the IRQ is slow, which
is not true for the MIPS CPU IRQ.
Disable this optimization by implementing .irq_disable and .irq_enable

This patch drops the arbitrary maximum I/O size limit in sbc_parse_cdb(),
which currently for fabric_max_sectors is hardcoded to 8192 (4 MB for 512
byte sector devices), and for hw_max_sectors is a backend driver dependent
value.
This limit is problematic because Linux initiators have only recently
started to honor block limits MAXIMUM TRANSFER LENGTH, and other non-Linux
based initiators (eg: MSFT Fibre Channel) can also generate I/Os larger
than 4 MB in size.
Currently when this happens, the following message will appear on the
target resulting in I/Os being returned with non recoverable status:
SCSI OP 28h with too big sectors 16384 exceeds fabric_max_sectors: 8192
Instead, drop both [fabric,hw]_max_sector checks in sbc_parse_cdb(),
and convert the existing hw_max_sectors into a purely informational
attribute used to represent the granuality that backend driver and/or
subsystem code is splitting I/Os upon.
Also, update FILEIO with an explicit FD_MAX_BYTES check in fd_execute_rw()
to deal with the one special iovec limitiation case.

A worker_pool's forward progress is guaranteed by the fact that the
last idle worker assumes the manager role to create more workers and
summon the rescuers if creating workers doesn't succeed in timely
manner before proceeding to execute work items.
This manager role is implemented in manage_workers(), which indicates
whether the worker may proceed to work item execution with its return
value. This is necessary because multiple workers may contend for the
manager role, and, if there already is a manager, others should
proceed to work item execution.
Unfortunately, the function also indicates that the worker may proceed
to work item execution if need_to_create_worker() is false at the head
of the function. need_to_create_worker() tests the following
conditions.
pending work items && !nr_running && !nr_idle
The first and third conditions are protected by pool->lock and thus
won't change while holding pool->lock; however, nr_running can change
asynchronously as other workers block and resume and while it's likely
to be zero, as someone woke this worker up in the first place, some
other workers could have become runnable inbetween making it non-zero.
If this happens, manage_worker() could return false even with zero
nr_idle making the worker, the last idle one, proceed to execute work
items. If then all workers of the pool end up blocking on a resource
which can only be released by a work item which is pending on that
pool, the whole pool can deadlock as there's no one to create more
workers or summon the rescuers.
This patch fixes the problem by removing the early exit condition from
maybe_create_worker() and making manage_workers() return false iff
there's already another manager, which ensures that the last worker
doesn't start executing work items.
We can leave the early exit condition alone and just ignore the return
value but the only reason it was put there is because the
manage_workers() used to perform both creations and destructions of
workers and thus the function may be invoked while the pool is trying
to reduce the number of workers. Now that manage_workers() is called
only when more workers are needed, the only case this early exit
condition is triggered is rare race conditions rendering it pointless.
Tested with simulated workload and modified workqueue code which
trigger the pool deadlock reliably without this patch.
tj: Updated to v3.14 where manage_workers() is responsible not only
for creating more workers but also destroying surplus ones.
maybe_create_worker() needs to keep its early exit condition to
avoid creating a new worker when manage_workers() is called to
destroy surplus ones. Other than that, the adaptabion is
straight-forward. Both maybe_{create|destroy}_worker() functions
are converted to return void and manage_workers() returns %false
iff it lost manager arbitration.

but the "drop it again if there is no overlap" part was missing from

When setting up the CMA region, we must ensure that the old section
mappings are flushed from the TLB before replacing them with page
tables, otherwise we can suffer from mismatched aliases if the CPU
speculatively prefetches from these mappings at an inopportune time.
A mismatched alias can occur when the TLB contains a section mapping,
but a subsequent prefetch causes it to load a page table mapping,
resulting in the possibility of the TLB containing two matching
mappings for the same virtual address region.

When creating a fence for a tiled object, only fence the area that
makes up the actual tiles. The object may be larger than the tiled
area and if we allow those extra addresses to be fenced, they'll
get converted to addresses beyond where the object is mapped. This
opens up the possiblity of writes beyond the end of object.
To prevent this, we adjust the size of the fence to only encompass
the area that makes up the actual tiles. The extra space is considered
un-tiled and now behaves as if it was a linear object.

for a regulator device and protects it from concurrent access using

In the case of regulator_put() the consumer is removed and regulator
device's parameters are updated without holding the regulator device's
mutex. This would lead to a race condition between the regulator_put()
and any function which traverses the consumer list or modifies regulator
device's parameters.

We only support swap file calling nfs_direct_IO. However, application
might be able to get to nfs_direct_IO if it toggles O_DIRECT flag
during IO and it can deadlock because we grab inode->i_mutex in
nfs_file_direct_write(). So return 0 for such case. Then the generic
layer will fall back to buffer IO.
This patch solves deadlock between clock prepare mutex and regmap mutex reported
by Tomasz Figa in [1] by implementing solution from [2]: "always leave the clock
of the i2c controller in a prepared state".
On each i2c transfer handled by s3c24xx_i2c_xfer(), clk_prepare_enable() was
called, which calls clk_prepare() then clk_enable(). clk_prepare() takes
prepare_lock mutex before proceeding. Note that i2c transfer functions are
invoked from many places in kernel, typically with some other additional lock
held.
It may happen that function on CPU1 (e.g. regmap_update_bits()) has taken a
mutex (i.e. regmap lock mutex) then it attempts i2c communication in order to
proceed (so it needs to obtain clock related prepare_lock mutex during transfer
preparation stage due to clk_prepare() call). At the same time other task on
CPU0 wants to operate on clock (e.g. to (un)prepare clock for some other reason)
so it has taken prepare_lock mutex.
Implemented solution from [2] leaves i2c clock prepared. Preparation is done in
s3c24xx_i2c_probe() function. Without this patch, it is immediately unprepared
by clk_disable_unprepare() call. I've replaced this call with clk_disable() and
I've added clk_unprepare() call in s3c24xx_i2c_remove().

This effectively reverts the last hunk of 392a9dad7e77 ("rbd: detect
when clone image is flattened").
The problem with parent_overlap != 0 condition is that it's possible
and completely valid to have an image with parent_overlap == 0 whose
parent state needs to be cleaned up on unmap. The next commit, which
drops the "clone image now standalone" logic, opens up another window
of opportunity to hit this, but even without it
leaves rbd_device/rbd_spec/etc and rbd_client along with ceph_client
hanging around.
My thinking behind calling rbd_dev_parent_put() unconditionally is that
there shouldn't be any requests in flight at that point in time as we
are deep into unmap sequence. Hence, even if rbd_dev_unparent() caused
by flatten is delayed by in-flight requests, it will have finished by
the time we reach rbd_dev_unprobe() caused by unmap, thus turning
unconditional rbd_dev_parent_put() into a no-op.
When the last subscriber to a "Through" port has been removed, the
subscribed destination ports might still be active, so it would be
wrong to send "all sounds off" and "reset controller" events to them.
The proper place for such a shutdown would be the closing of the actual
MIDI port (and close_substream() in rawmidi.c already can do this).
This also fixes a deadlock when dummy_unuse() tries to send events to
its own port that is already locked because it is being freed.

The commit 3b8a3c010969 ("powerpc/pseries: Fix endiannes issue in RTAS

However, as Michael Ellerman noticed, this fix was not complete, the
token value was not byte swapped. This lead to call an unexpected and
most of the time unexisting RTAS function, which is silently ignored by
RTAS.

While being in an ERROR_WARNING state, and receiving further

reverts back to ERROR_ACTIVE.
Per the CAN standard, only revert to ERROR_ACTIVE when the

Moreover, in certain Kvaser models, the BUS_ERROR flag is

Upon receiving a hardware event with the BUS_RESET flag set,
the driver kills all of its anchored URBs and resets all of
its transmit URB contexts.
Unfortunately it does so under the context of URB completion
handler `kvaser_usb_read_bulk_callback()', which is often
called in an atomic context.
While the device is flooded with many received error packets,
usb_kill_urb() typically sleeps/reschedules till the transfer
request of each killed URB in question completes, leading to
the sleep in atomic bug. [3]
In v2 submission of the original driver patch [1], it was
stated that the URBs kill and tx contexts reset was needed
since we don't receive any tx acknowledgments later and thus
such resources will be locked down forever. Fortunately this
is no longer needed since an earlier bugfix in this patch
series is now applied: all tx URB contexts are reset upon CAN
channel close. [2]
Moreover, a BUS_RESET is now treated _exactly_ like a BUS_OFF
event, which is the recommended handling method advised by
the device manufacturer.

It is critical that fetch_block() and handle_stripe_dirtying()
are consistent in their analysis of what needs to be loaded.
Otherwise raid5 can wait forever for a block that won't be loaded.
Currently when writing to a RAID5 that is resyncing, to a location
beyond the resync offset, handle_stripe_dirtying chooses a
reconstruct-write cycle, but fetch_block() assumes a
read-modify-write, and a lockup can happen.
So treat that case just like RAID6, just as we do in
handle_stripe_dirtying. RAID6 always does reconstruct-write.
This bug was introduced when the behaviour of handle_stripe_dirtying
was changed in 3.7, so the patch is suitable for any kernel since,
though it will need careful merging for some versions.

Commit 2457aec63745 ("mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page
cache allocation where possible") has added a separate parameter for
specifying gfp mask for radix tree allocations.
Not only this is less than optimal from the API point of view because it
is error prone, it is also buggy currently because
grab_cache_page_write_begin is using GFP_KERNEL for radix tree and if
fgp_flags doesn't contain FGP_NOFS (mostly controlled by fs by
AOP_FLAG_NOFS flag) but the mapping_gfp_mask has __GFP_FS cleared then
the radix tree allocation wouldn't obey the restriction and might
recurse into filesystem and cause deadlocks. This is the case for most
filesystems unfortunately because only ext4 and gfs2 are using
AOP_FLAG_NOFS.
Let's simply remove radix_gfp_mask parameter because the allocation
context is same for both page cache and for the radix tree. Just make
sure that the radix tree gets only the sane subset of the mask (e.g. do
not pass __GFP_WRITE).
Long term it is more preferable to convert remaining users of
AOP_FLAG_NOFS to use mapping_gfp_mask instead and simplify this
interface even further.

The fair zone allocation policy round-robins allocations between zones
within a node to avoid age inversion problems during reclaim. If the
first allocation fails, the batch counts are reset and a second attempt
made before entering the slow path.
One assumption made with this scheme is that batches expire at roughly
the same time and the resets each time are justified. This assumption
does not hold when zones reach their low watermark as the batches will
be consumed at uneven rates. Allocation failure due to watermark
depletion result in additional zonelist scans for the reset and another
watermark check before hitting the slowpath.
On UMA, the benefit is negligible -- around 0.25%. On 4-socket NUMA
machine it's variable due to the variability of measuring overhead with
the vmstat changes. The system CPU overhead comparison looks like

However it is worth noting that the overall benchmark still completed
faster and intuitively it makes sense to take as few passes as possible
through the zonelists.
The purpose of numa_zonelist_order=zone is to preserve lower zones for
use with 32-bit devices. If locality is preferred then the
numa_zonelist_order=node policy should be used.
Unfortunately, the fair zone allocation policy overrides this by
skipping zones on remote nodes until the lower one is found. While this
makes sense from a page aging and performance perspective, it breaks the
expected zonelist policy. This patch restores the expected behaviour
for zone-list ordering.
When kswapd is awake reclaiming, the per-cpu stat thresholds are lowered
to get more accurate counts to avoid breaching watermarks. This
threshold update iterates over all possible CPUs which is unnecessary.
Only online CPUs need to be updated. If a new CPU is onlined,
refresh_zone_stat_thresholds() will set the thresholds correctly.
zone->pages_scanned is a write-intensive cache line during page reclaim
and it's also updated during page free. Move the counter into vmstat to
take advantage of the per-cpu updates and do not update it in the free
paths unless necessary.
On a small UMA machine running tiobench the difference is marginal. On
a 4-node machine the overhead is more noticable. Note that automatic
NUMA balancing was disabled for this test as otherwise the system CPU
overhead is unpredictable.

Note that the overhead reduction will vary depending on where exactly
pages are allocated and freed.
The arrangement of struct zone has changed over time and now it has
reached the point where there is some inappropriate sharing going on.
On x86-64 for example
o The zone->node field is shared with the zone lock and zone->node is
accessed frequently from the page allocator due to the fair zone
allocation policy.
o span_seqlock is almost never used by shares a line with free_area
o Some zone statistics share a cache line with the LRU lock so
reclaim-intensive and allocator-intensive workloads can bounce the cache
line on a stat update
This patch rearranges struct zone to put read-only and read-mostly
fields together and then splits the page allocator intensive fields, the
zone statistics and the page reclaim intensive fields into their own
cache lines. Note that the type of lowmem_reserve changes due to the
watermark calculations being signed and avoiding a signed/unsigned
conversion there.
On the test configuration I used the overall size of struct zone shrunk
by one cache line. On smaller machines, this is not likely to be
noticable. However, on a 4-node NUMA machine running tiobench the
system CPU overhead is reduced by this patch.

This was formerly the series "Improve sequential read throughput" which
noted some major differences in performance of tiobench since 3.0.
While there are a number of factors, two that dominated were the
introduction of the fair zone allocation policy and changes to CFQ.
The behaviour of fair zone allocation policy makes more sense than
tiobench as a benchmark and CFQ defaults were not changed due to
insufficient benchmarking.
This series is what's left. It's one functional fix to the fair zone
allocation policy when used on NUMA machines and a reduction of overhead
in general. tiobench was used for the comparison despite its flaws as
an IO benchmark as in this case we are primarily interested in the
overhead of page allocator and page reclaim activity.

This patch (of 6):
The LRU insertion and activate tracepoints take PFN as a parameter
forcing the overhead to the caller. Move the overhead to the tracepoint
fast-assign method to ensure the cost is only incurred when the
tracepoint is active.
When memory cgoups are enabled, the code that decides to force to scan
anonymous pages in get_scan_count() compares global values (free,
high_watermark) to a value that is restricted to a memory cgroup (file).
It make the code over-eager to force anon scan.
For instance, it will force anon scan when scanning a memcg that is
mainly populated by anonymous page, even when there is plenty of file
pages to get rid of in others memcgs, even when swappiness == 0. It
breaks user's expectation about swappiness and hurts performance.
This patch makes sure that forced anon scan only happens when there not
enough file pages for the all zone, not just in one random memcg.

Richard Yao reported a month ago that his system have a trouble with
vmap_area_lock contention during performance analysis by /proc/meminfo.
Andrew asked why his analysis checks /proc/meminfo stressfully, but he
didn't answer it.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/10/416
Although I'm not sure that this is right usage or not, there is a
solution reducing vmap_area_lock contention with no side-effect. That
is just to use rcu list iterator in get_vmalloc_info().
rcu can be used in this function because all RCU protocol is already
respected by writers, since Nick Piggin commit db64fe02258f1 ("mm:
rewrite vmap layer") back in linux-2.6.28
Specifically :
insertions use list_add_rcu(),
deletions use list_del_rcu() and kfree_rcu().
Note the rb tree is not used from rcu reader (it would not be safe),
only the vmap_area_list has full RCU protection.
Note that __purge_vmap_area_lazy() already uses this rcu protection.
: While rcu list traversal over the vmap_area_list is safe, this may
: arrive at different results than the spinlocked version. The rcu list
: traversal version will not be a 'snapshot' of a single, valid instant
: of the entire vmap_area_list, but rather a potential amalgam of
: different list states.
Joonsoo:
: Yes, you are right, but I don't think that we should be strict here.
: Meminfo is already not a 'snapshot' at specific time. While we try to get
: certain stats, the other stats can change. And, although we may arrive at
: different results than the spinlocked version, the difference would not be

Commit 71e3aac0724f ("thp: transparent hugepage core") adds
copy_pte_range prototype to huge_mm.h. I'm not sure why (or if) this
function have been used outside of memory.c, but it currently isn't.
This patch makes copy_pte_range() static again.
Commit 9f1b868a13ac ("mm: thp: khugepaged: add policy for finding target
node") improved the previous khugepaged logic which allocated a
transparent hugepages from the node of the first page being collapsed.
However, it is still possible to collapse pages to remote memory which
may suffer from additional access latency. With the current policy, it
is possible that 255 pages (with PAGE_SHIFT == 12) will be collapsed
remotely if the majority are allocated from that node.
When zone_reclaim_mode is enabled, it means the VM should make every
attempt to allocate locally to prevent NUMA performance degradation. In
this case, we do not want to collapse hugepages to remote nodes that
would suffer from increased access latency. Thus, when
zone_reclaim_mode is enabled, only allow collapsing to nodes with
RECLAIM_DISTANCE or less.
There is no functional change for systems that disable
zone_reclaim_mode.

Use ACCESS_ONCE() in handle_pte_fault() when getting the entry or
orig_pte upon which all subsequent decisions and pte_same() tests will
be made.
I have no evidence that its lack is responsible for the mm/filemap.c:202
BUG_ON(page_mapped(page)) in __delete_from_page_cache() found by
trinity, and I am not optimistic that it will fix it. But I have found
no other explanation, and ACCESS_ONCE() here will surely not hurt.
If gcc does re-access the pte before passing it down, then that would be
disastrous for correct page fault handling, and certainly could explain
the page_mapped() BUGs seen (concurrent fault causing page to be mapped
in a second time on top of itself: mapcount 2 for a single pte).
Under shmem swapping load, I sometimes hit the VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!PageLRU)
in isolate_lru_pages() at mm/vmscan.c:1281!
Commit 2457aec63745 ("mm: non-atomically mark page accessed during page
cache allocation where possible") looks like interrupted work-in-progress.
mm/filemap.c's call to init_page_accessed() is fine, but not mm/shmem.c's
- shmem_write_begin() is clearly wrong to use it after shmem_getpage(),
when the page is always visible in radix_tree, and often already on LRU.
Revert change to shmem_write_begin(), and use init_page_accessed() or
mark_page_accessed() appropriately for SGP_WRITE in shmem_getpage_gfp().
SGP_WRITE also covers shmem_symlink(), which did not mark_page_accessed()
before; but since many other filesystems use [__]page_symlink(), which did
and does mark the page accessed, consider this as rectifying an oversight.
If a page is marked for immediate reclaim then it is moved to the tail of
the LRU list. This occurs when the system is under enough memory pressure
for pages under writeback to reach the end of the LRU but we test for this
using atomic operations on every writeback. This patch uses an optimistic
non-atomic test first. It'll miss some pages in rare cases but the
consequences are not severe enough to warrant such a penalty.
While the function does not dominate profiles during a simple dd test the
cost of it is reduced.
aops->write_begin may allocate a new page and make it visible only to have
mark_page_accessed called almost immediately after. Once the page is
visible the atomic operations are necessary which is noticable overhead
when writing to an in-memory filesystem like tmpfs but should also be
noticable with fast storage. The objective of the patch is to initialse
the accessed information with non-atomic operations before the page is
visible.
The bulk of filesystems directly or indirectly use
grab_cache_page_write_begin or find_or_create_page for the initial
allocation of a page cache page. This patch adds an init_page_accessed()
helper which behaves like the first call to mark_page_accessed() but may
called before the page is visible and can be done non-atomically.
The primary APIs of concern in this care are the following and are used
by most filesystems.
All of them are very similar in detail to the patch creates a core helper
pagecache_get_page() which takes a flags parameter that affects its
behavior such as whether the page should be marked accessed or not. Then
old API is preserved but is basically a thin wrapper around this core
function.
Each of the filesystems are then updated to avoid calling
mark_page_accessed when it is known that the VM interfaces have already
done the job. There is a slight snag in that the timing of the
mark_page_accessed() has now changed so in rare cases it's possible a page
gets to the end of the LRU as PageReferenced where as previously it might
have been repromoted. This is expected to be rare but it's worth the
filesystem people thinking about it in case they see a problem with the
timing change. It is also the case that some filesystems may be marking
pages accessed that previously did not but it makes sense that filesystems
have consistent behaviour in this regard.
The test case used to evaulate this is a simple dd of a large file done
multiple times with the file deleted on each iterations. The size of the
file is 1/10th physical memory to avoid dirty page balancing. In the
async case it will be possible that the workload completes without even
hitting the disk and will have variable results but highlight the impact
of mark_page_accessed for async IO. The sync results are expected to be
more stable. The exception is tmpfs where the normal case is for the "IO"
to not hit the disk.
The test machine was single socket and UMA to avoid any scheduling or NUMA
artifacts. Throughput and wall times are presented for sync IO, only wall
times are shown for async as the granularity reported by dd and the
variability is unsuitable for comparison. As async results were variable
do to writback timings, I'm only reporting the maximum figures. The sync
results were stable enough to make the mean and stddev uninteresting.
The performance results are reported based on a run with no profiling.
Profile data is based on a separate run with oprofile running.
Discarding buffers uses a bunch of atomic operations when discarding
buffers because ...... I can't think of a reason. Use a cmpxchg loop to
clear all the necessary flags. In most (all?) cases this will be a single
atomic operations.

When adding pages to the LRU we clear the active bit unconditionally.
As the page could be reachable from other paths we cannot use unlocked
operations without risk of corruption such as a parallel
mark_page_accessed. This patch tests if is necessary to clear the
active flag before using an atomic operation. This potentially opens a
tiny race when PageActive is checked as mark_page_accessed could be
called after PageActive was checked. The race already exists but this
patch changes it slightly. The consequence is that that the page may be
promoted to the active list that might have been left on the inactive
list before the patch. It's too tiny a race and too marginal a
consequence to always use atomic operations for.

X86 prefers the use of unsigned types for iterators and there is a
tendency to mix whether a signed or unsigned type if used for page order.
This converts a number of sites in mm/page_alloc.c to use unsigned int for
order where possible.

ALLOC_NO_WATERMARK is set in a few cases. Always by kswapd, always for
__GFP_MEMALLOC, sometimes for swap-over-nfs, tasks etc. Each of these
cases are relatively rare events but the ALLOC_NO_WATERMARK check is an
unlikely branch in the fast path. This patch moves the check out of the
fast path and after it has been determined that the watermarks have not
been met. This helps the common fast path at the cost of making the slow
path slower and hitting kswapd with a performance cost. It's a reasonable
tradeoff.

The zlc is used on NUMA machines to quickly skip over zones that are full.
However it is always updated, even for the first zone scanned when the
zlc might not even be active. As it's a write to a bitmap that
potentially bounces cache line it's deceptively expensive and most
machines will not care. Only update the zlc if it was active.

This happens if the sdhci interrupt status contains SDHCI_INT_CARD_INT,
while the sdio irq was never setup. This patch fixes that in a minimal
way by checking if the sdio irq was setup.
In more recent kernels this bug went away due to refactoring done by
Russel King. So an alternative (potentially better?) fix for this patch
is to cherrypick the following patches from a recent kernel:
18258f7239a6 - genirq: Provide synchronize_hardirq() bf3b5ec66bd0 - mmc: sdio_irq: rework sdio irq handling 41005003bcaf - mmc: sdhci: clean up interrupt handling 781e989cf593 - mmc: sdhci: convert to new SDIO IRQ handling

Commit f95499c3030f ("n_tty: Don't wait for buffer work in read() loop")
introduces a race window where a pty master can be signalled that the pty
slave was closed before all the data that the slave wrote is delivered.
Commit f8747d4a466a ("tty: Fix pty master read() after slave closes") fixed the
problem in case of n_tty_read, but the problem still exists for n_tty_poll.
This can be seen by running 'for ((i=0; i<100;i++));do ./test.py ;done'
where test.py is:
import os, select, pty
(pid, pty_fd) = pty.fork()
if pid == 0:
os.write(1, 'This string should be received by parent')
else:
poller = select.epoll()
poller.register( pty_fd, select.EPOLLIN )
ready = poller.poll( 1 * 1000 )
for fd, events in ready:
if not events & select.EPOLLIN:
print 'missed POLLIN event'
else:
print os.read(fd, 100)
poller.close()
The string from the slave is missed several times.
This patch takes the same approach as the fix for read and special cases
this condition for poll.
Tested on 3.16.

The 'max' size passed into the function is measured in number of bits
(KEY_MAX, LED_MAX, etc) so we need to convert it accordingly before trying
to copy the data out, otherwise we will try copying too much and end up
with up with a page fault.

Commit 5d26a105b5a7 ("crypto: prefix module autoloading with "crypto-"")
changed the automatic module loading when requesting crypto algorithms
to prefix all module requests with "crypto-". This requires all crypto
modules to have a crypto specific module alias even if their file name
would otherwise match the requested crypto algorithm.
Even though commit 5d26a105b5a7 added those aliases for a vast amount of
modules, it was missing a few. Add the required MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO
annotations to those files to make them get loaded automatically, again.
This fixes, e.g., requesting 'ecb(blowfish-generic)', which used to work
with kernels v3.18 and below.
Also change MODULE_ALIAS() lines to MODULE_ALIAS_CRYPTO(). The former
won't work for crypto modules any more.
This prefixes all crypto module loading with "crypto-" so we never run
the risk of exposing module auto-loading to userspace via a crypto API,
as demonstrated by Mathias Krause:
This commit broke on x86 PV because entries in the generic SWIOTLB are
indexed using (pseudo-)physical address not DMA address and these are
not the same in a x86 PV guest.
Make sure there is enough room for the nfnetlink header in the
netlink messages that are part of the batch. There is a similar
check in netlink_rcv_skb().

When a key is being garbage collected, it's key->user would get put before
the ->destroy() callback is called, where the key is removed from it's
respective tracking structures.
This leaves a key hanging in a semi-invalid state which leaves a window open
for a different task to try an access key->user. An example is
find_keyring_by_name() which would dereference key->user for a key that is
in the process of being garbage collected (where key->user was freed but
->destroy() wasn't called yet - so it's still present in the linked list).
This would cause either a panic, or corrupt memory.
Commit 0dbc6078c06bc0 ('x86, build, pci: Fix PCI_MSI build on !SMP')
introduced the dependency that X86_UP_APIC is only available when
PCI_MSI is false. This effectively prevents PCI_MSI support on 32bit
UP systems because it disables both APIC and IO-APIC. But APIC support
is architecturally required for PCI_MSI.
The intention of the patch was to enforce APIC support when PCI_MSI is
enabled, but failed to do so.
Remove the !PCI_MSI dependency from X86_UP_APIC and enforce
X86_UP_APIC when PCI_MSI support is enabled on 32bit UP systems.
