We remove the call to grab_super_passive in call to super_cache_count.
This becomes a scalability bottleneck as multiple threads are trying to do
memory reclamation, e.g. when we are doing large amount of file read and
page cache is under pressure. The cached objects quickly got reclaimed
down to 0 and we are aborting the cache_scan() reclaim. But counting
creates a log jam acquiring the sb_lock.
We are holding the shrinker_rwsem which ensures the safety of call to
list_lru_count_node() and s_op->nr_cached_objects. The shrinker is
unregistered now before ->kill_sb() so the operation is safe when we are
doing unmount.

This patch (of 3):
We will like to unregister the sb shrinker before ->kill_sb(). This will
allow cached objects to be counted without call to grab_super_passive() to
update ref count on sb. We want to avoid locking during memory
reclamation especially when we are skipping the memory reclaim when we are
out of cached objects.
This is safe because grab_super_passive does a try-lock on the
sb->s_umount now, and so if we are in the unmount process, it won't ever
block. That means what used to be a deadlock and races we were avoiding
by using grab_super_passive() is now:
970 if (WARN_ON_ONCE((current->flags & (PF_MEMALLOC|PF_KSWAPD)) ==
971 PF_MEMALLOC))
I did not respond at the time, because a glance at the PageDirty block
in shrink_page_list() quickly shows that this is impossible: we don't do
writeback on file pages (other than tmpfs) from direct reclaim nowadays.
Dave was hallucinating, but it would have been disrespectful to say so.
However, my own /var/log/messages now shows similar complaints
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 28814 at fs/ext4/inode.c:1881 ext4_writepage+0xa7/0x38b()
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 27347 at fs/ext4/inode.c:1764 ext4_writepage+0xa7/0x38b()
from stressing some mmotm trees during July.
Could a dirty xfs or ext4 file page somehow get marked PageSwapBacked,
so fail shrink_page_list()'s page_is_file_cache() test, and so proceed
to mapping->a_ops->writepage()?
Yes, 3.16-rc1's commit 68711a746345 ("mm, migration: add destination
page freeing callback") has provided such a way to compaction: if
migrating a SwapBacked page fails, its newpage may be put back on the
list for later use with PageSwapBacked still set, and nothing will clear
it.
Whether that can do anything worse than issue WARN_ON_ONCEs, and get
some statistics wrong, is unclear: easier to fix than to think through
the consequences.
Fixing it here, before the put_new_page(), addresses the bug directly,
but is probably the worst place to fix it. Page migration is doing too
many parts of the job on too many levels: fixing it in
move_to_new_page() to complement its SetPageSwapBacked would be
preferable, except why is it (and newpage->mapping and newpage->index)
done there, rather than down in migrate_page_move_mapping(), once we are
sure of success? Not a cleanup to get into right now, especially not
with memcg cleanups coming in 3.17.

We use the accessed bit to age a page at page reclaim time,
and currently we also flush the TLB when doing so.
But in some workloads TLB flush overhead is very heavy. In my
simple multithreaded app with a lot of swap to several pcie
SSDs, removing the tlb flush gives about 20% ~ 30% swapout
speedup.
Fortunately just removing the TLB flush is a valid optimization:
on x86 CPUs, clearing the accessed bit without a TLB flush
doesn't cause data corruption.
It could cause incorrect page aging and the (mistaken) reclaim of
hot pages, but the chance of that should be relatively low.
So as a performance optimization don't flush the TLB when
clearing the accessed bit, it will eventually be flushed by
a context switch or a VM operation anyway. [ In the rare
event of it not getting flushed for a long time the delay
shouldn't really matter because there's no real memory
pressure for swapout to react to. ]

Compaction uses compact_checklock_irqsave() function to periodically check
for lock contention and need_resched() to either abort async compaction,
or to free the lock, schedule and retake the lock. When aborting,
cc->contended is set to signal the contended state to the caller. Two
problems have been identified in this mechanism.
First, compaction also calls directly cond_resched() in both scanners when
no lock is yet taken. This call either does not abort async compaction,
or set cc->contended appropriately. This patch introduces a new
compact_should_abort() function to achieve both. In isolate_freepages(),
the check frequency is reduced to once by SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pageblocks to
match what the migration scanner does in the preliminary page checks. In
case a pageblock is found suitable for calling isolate_freepages_block(),
the checks within there are done on higher frequency.
Second, isolate_freepages() does not check if isolate_freepages_block()
aborted due to contention, and advances to the next pageblock. This
violates the principle of aborting on contention, and might result in
pageblocks not being scanned completely, since the scanning cursor is
advanced. This problem has been noticed in the code by Joonsoo Kim when
reviewing related patches. This patch makes isolate_freepages_block()
check the cc->contended flag and abort.
In case isolate_freepages() has already isolated some pages before
aborting due to contention, page migration will proceed, which is OK since
we do not want to waste the work that has been done, and page migration
has own checks for contention. However, we do not want another isolation
attempt by either of the scanners, so cc->contended flag check is added
also to compaction_alloc() and compact_finished() to make sure compaction
is aborted right after the migration.
The outcome of the patch should be reduced lock contention by async
compaction and lower latencies for higher-order allocations where direct
compaction is involved.

The compaction free scanner in isolate_freepages() currently remembers PFN
of the highest pageblock where it successfully isolates, to be used as the
starting pageblock for the next invocation. The rationale behind this is
that page migration might return free pages to the allocator when
migration fails and we don't want to skip them if the compaction
continues.
Since migration now returns free pages back to compaction code where they
can be reused, this is no longer a concern. This patch changes
isolate_freepages() so that the PFN for restarting is updated with each
pageblock where isolation is attempted. Using stress-highalloc from
mmtests, this resulted in 10% reduction of the pages scanned by the free
scanner.
Note that the somewhat similar functionality that records highest
successful pageblock in zone->compact_cached_free_pfn, remains unchanged.
This cache is used when the whole compaction is restarted, not for
multiple invocations of the free scanner during single compaction.

During compaction, update_nr_listpages() has been used to count remaining
non-migrated and free pages after a call to migrage_pages(). The
freepages counting has become unneccessary, and it turns out that
migratepages counting is also unnecessary in most cases.
The only situation when it's needed to count cc->migratepages is when
migrate_pages() returns with a negative error code. Otherwise, the
non-negative return value is the number of pages that were not migrated,
which is exactly the count of remaining pages in the cc->migratepages
list.
Furthermore, any non-zero count is only interesting for the tracepoint of
mm_compaction_migratepages events, because after that all remaining
unmigrated pages are put back and their count is set to 0.
This patch therefore removes update_nr_listpages() completely, and changes
the tracepoint definition so that the manual counting is done only when
the tracepoint is enabled, and only when migrate_pages() returns a
negative error code.
Furthermore, migrate_pages() and the tracepoints won't be called when
there's nothing to migrate. This potentially avoids some wasted cycles
and reduces the volume of uninteresting mm_compaction_migratepages events
where "nr_migrated=0 nr_failed=0". In the stress-highalloc mmtest, this
was about 75% of the events. The mm_compaction_isolate_migratepages event
is better for determining that nothing was isolated for migration, and
this one was just duplicating the info.

Async compaction terminates prematurely when need_resched(), see
compact_checklock_irqsave(). This can never trigger, however, if the
cond_resched() in isolate_migratepages_range() always takes care of the
scheduling.
If the cond_resched() actually triggers, then terminate this pageblock
scan for async compaction as well.
We're going to want to manipulate the migration mode for compaction in the
page allocator, and currently compact_control's sync field is only a bool.
Currently, we only do MIGRATE_ASYNC or MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT compaction
depending on the value of this bool. Convert the bool to enum
migrate_mode and pass the migration mode in directly. Later, we'll want
to avoid MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT for thp allocations in the pagefault patch to
avoid unnecessary latency.
This also alters compaction triggered from sysfs, either for the entire
system or for a node, to force MIGRATE_SYNC.

Each zone has a cached migration scanner pfn for memory compaction so that
subsequent calls to memory compaction can start where the previous call
left off.
Currently, the compaction migration scanner only updates the per-zone
cached pfn when pageblocks were not skipped for async compaction. This
creates a dependency on calling sync compaction to avoid having subsequent
calls to async compaction from scanning an enormous amount of non-MOVABLE
pageblocks each time it is called. On large machines, this could be
potentially very expensive.
This patch adds a per-zone cached migration scanner pfn only for async
compaction. It is updated everytime a pageblock has been scanned in its
entirety and when no pages from it were successfully isolated. The cached
migration scanner pfn for sync compaction is updated only when called for
sync compaction.
Greg reported that he found isolated free pages were returned back to the
VM rather than the compaction freelist. This will cause holes behind the
free scanner and cause it to reallocate additional memory if necessary
later.
He detected the problem at runtime seeing that ext4 metadata pages (esp
the ones read by "sbi->s_group_desc[i] = sb_bread(sb, block)") were
constantly visited by compaction calls of migrate_pages(). These pages
had a non-zero b_count which caused fallback_migrate_page() ->
try_to_release_page() -> try_to_free_buffers() to fail.
Memory compaction works by having a "freeing scanner" scan from one end of
a zone which isolates pages as migration targets while another "migrating
scanner" scans from the other end of the same zone which isolates pages
for migration.
When page migration fails for an isolated page, the target page is
returned to the system rather than the freelist built by the freeing
scanner. This may require the freeing scanner to continue scanning memory
after suitable migration targets have already been returned to the system
needlessly.
This patch returns destination pages to the freeing scanner freelist when
page migration fails. This prevents unnecessary work done by the freeing
scanner but also encourages memory to be as compacted as possible at the
end of the zone.
Memory migration uses a callback defined by the caller to determine how to
allocate destination pages. When migration fails for a source page,
however, it frees the destination page back to the system.
This patch adds a memory migration callback defined by the caller to
determine how to free destination pages. If a caller, such as memory
compaction, builds its own freelist for migration targets, this can reuse
already freed memory instead of scanning additional memory.
If the caller provides a function to handle freeing of destination pages,
it is called when page migration fails. If the caller passes NULL then
freeing back to the system will be handled as usual. This patch
introduces no functional change.
isolate_freepages() is currently somewhat hard to follow thanks to many
looks like it is related to the 'low_pfn' variable, but in fact it is not.
This patch renames the 'high_pfn' variable to a hopefully less confusing name,
and slightly changes its handling without a functional change. A comment made
obsolete by recent changes is also updated.

This patch removes read_cache_page_async() which wasn't really needed
anywhere and simplifies the code around it a bit.
read_cache_page_async() is useful when we want to read a page into the
cache without waiting for it to complete. This happens when the
appropriate callback 'filler' doesn't complete its read operation and
releases the page lock immediately, and instead queues a different
completion routine to do that. This never actually happened anywhere in
the code.
read_cache_page_async() had 3 different callers:
- read_cache_page() which is the sync version, it would just wait for
the requested read to complete using wait_on_page_read().
- JFFS2 would call it from jffs2_gc_fetch_page(), but the filler
function it supplied doesn't do any async reads, and would complete
before the filler function returns - making it actually a sync read.
- CRAMFS would call it using the read_mapping_page_async() wrapper, with
a similar story to JFFS2 - the filler function doesn't do anything that
reminds async reads and would always complete before the filler function
returns.
To sum it up, the code in mm/filemap.c never took advantage of having
read_cache_page_async(). While there are filler callbacks that do async
reads (such as the block one), we always called it with the
read_cache_page().
This patch adds a mandatory wait for read to complete when adding a new
page to the cache, and removes read_cache_page_async() and its wrappers.
MADV_WILLNEED currently does not read swapped out shmem pages back in.

The radix tree hole searching code is only used for page cache, for
example the readahead code trying to get a a picture of the area
surrounding a fault.
It sufficed to rely on the radix tree definition of holes, which is
"empty tree slot". But this is about to change, though, as shadow page
descriptors will be stored in the page cache after the actual pages get
evicted from memory.
Move the functions over to mm/filemap.c and make them native page cache
operations, where they can later be adapted to handle the new definition
of "page cache hole".

Page cache radix tree slots are usually stabilized by the page lock, but
shmem's swap cookies have no such thing. Because the overall truncation
loop is lockless, the swap entry is currently confirmed by a tree lookup
and then deleted by another tree lookup under the same tree lock region.
Use radix_tree_delete_item() instead, which does the verification and
deletion with only one lookup. This also allows removing the
delete-only special case from shmem_radix_tree_replace().

The LTR is the handshake between the device and the root
complex about the latency allowed when the bus exits power
save. This configuration was missing and this led to high
latency in the link power up. The end user could experience
high latency in the network because of this.
Commit 6f4c618ddb0 ("SCTP : Add paramters validity check for
ASCONF chunk") added basic verification of ASCONF chunks, however,
it is still possible to remotely crash a server by sending a
special crafted ASCONF chunk, even up to pre 2.6.12 kernels:
... where ASCONF chunk of length 280 contains 2 parameters ...
1) Add IP address parameter (param length: 16)
2) Add/del IP address parameter (param length: 255)
... followed by an UNKNOWN chunk of e.g. 4 bytes. Here, the
Address Parameter in the ASCONF chunk is even missing, too.
This is just an example and similarly-crafted ASCONF chunks
could be used just as well.
The ASCONF chunk passes through sctp_verify_asconf() as all
parameters passed sanity checks, and after walking, we ended
up successfully at the chunk end boundary, and thus may invoke
sctp_process_asconf(). Parameter walking is done with
WORD_ROUND() to take padding into account.
In sctp_process_asconf()'s TLV processing, we may fail in
sctp_process_asconf_param() e.g., due to removal of the IP
address that is also the source address of the packet containing
the ASCONF chunk, and thus we need to add all TLVs after the
failure to our ASCONF response to remote via helper function
sctp_add_asconf_response(), which basically invokes a
sctp_addto_chunk() adding the error parameters to the given
skb.
When walking to the next parameter this time, we proceed
with ...
... instead of the WORD_ROUND()'ed length, thus resulting here
in an off-by-one that leads to reading the follow-up garbage
parameter length of 12336, and thus throwing an skb_over_panic
for the reply when trying to sctp_addto_chunk() next time,
which implicitly calls the skb_put() with that length.
Fix it by using sctp_walk_params() [ which is also used in
INIT parameter processing ] macro in the verification *and*
in ASCONF processing: it will make sure we don't spill over,
that we walk parameters WORD_ROUND()'ed. Moreover, we're being
more defensive and guard against unknown parameter types and
missized addresses.

... where ASCONF_a equals ASCONF_b chunk (at least both serials
need to be equal), we panic an SCTP server!
The problem is that good-formed ASCONF chunks that we reply with
ASCONF_ACK chunks are cached per serial. Thus, when we receive a
same ASCONF chunk twice (e.g. through a lost ASCONF_ACK), we do
not need to process them again on the server side (that was the
idea, also proposed in the RFC). Instead, we know it was cached
and we just resend the cached chunk instead. So far, so good.
Where things get nasty is in SCTP's side effect interpreter, that
is, sctp_cmd_interpreter():
While incoming ASCONF_a (chunk = event_arg) is being marked
!end_of_packet and !singleton, and we have an association context,
we do not flush the outqueue the first time after processing the
ASCONF_ACK singleton chunk via SCTP_CMD_REPLY. Instead, we keep it
queued up, although we set local_cork to 1. Commit 2e3216cd54b1
changed the precedence, so that as long as we get bundled, incoming
chunks we try possible bundling on outgoing queue as well. Before
this commit, we would just flush the output queue.
Now, while ASCONF_a's ASCONF_ACK sits in the corked outq, we
continue to process the same ASCONF_b chunk from the packet. As
we have cached the previous ASCONF_ACK, we find it, grab it and
do another SCTP_CMD_REPLY command on it. So, effectively, we rip
the chunk->list pointers and requeue the same ASCONF_ACK chunk
another time. Since we process ASCONF_b, it's correctly marked
with end_of_packet and we enforce an uncork, and thus flush, thus
crashing the kernel.
Fix it by testing if the ASCONF_ACK is currently pending and if
that is the case, do not requeue it. When flushing the output
queue we may relink the chunk for preparing an outgoing packet,
but eventually unlink it when it's copied into the skb right
before transmission.

... where ASCONF_a, ASCONF_b, ..., ASCONF_z are good-formed
ASCONFs and have increasing serial numbers, we process such
ASCONF chunk(s) marked with !end_of_packet and !singleton,
since we have not yet reached the SCTP packet end. SCTP does
only do verification on a chunk by chunk basis, as an SCTP
packet is nothing more than just a container of a stream of
chunks which it eats up one by one.
We could run into the case that we receive a packet with a
malformed tail, above marked as trailing JUNK. All previous
chunks are here goodformed, so the stack will eat up all
previous chunks up to this point. In case JUNK does not fit
into a chunk header and there are no more other chunks in
the input queue, or in case JUNK contains a garbage chunk
header, but the encoded chunk length would exceed the skb
tail, or we came here from an entirely different scenario
and the chunk has pdiscard=1 mark (without having had a flush
point), it will happen, that we will excessively queue up
the association's output queue (a correct final chunk may
then turn it into a response flood when flushing the
queue ;)): I ran a simple script with incremental ASCONF
serial numbers and could see the server side consuming
excessive amount of RAM [before/after: up to 2GB and more].
The issue at heart is that the chunk train basically ends
with !end_of_packet and !singleton markers and since commit 2e3216cd54b1 ("sctp: Follow security requirement of responding
with 1 packet") therefore preventing an output queue flush
point in sctp_do_sm() -> sctp_cmd_interpreter() on the input
chunk (chunk = event_arg) even though local_cork is set,
but its precedence has changed since then. In the normal
case, the last chunk with end_of_packet=1 would trigger the
queue flush to accommodate possible outgoing bundling.
In the input queue, sctp_inq_pop() seems to do the right thing
in terms of discarding invalid chunks. So, above JUNK will
not enter the state machine and instead be released and exit
the sctp_assoc_bh_rcv() chunk processing loop. It's simply
the flush point being missing at loop exit. Adding a try-flush
approach on the output queue might not work as the underlying
infrastructure might be long gone at this point due to the
side-effect interpreter run.
One possibility, albeit a bit of a kludge, would be to defer
invalid chunk freeing into the state machine in order to
possibly trigger packet discards and thus indirectly a queue
flush on error. It would surely be better to discard chunks
as in the current, perhaps better controlled environment, but
going back and forth, it's simply architecturally not possible.
I tried various trailing JUNK attack cases and it seems to
look good now.

When running a 32-bit userspace on a 64-bit kernel (eg. i386
application on x86_64 kernel or 32-bit arm userspace on arm64
kernel) some of the perf ioctls must be treated with special
care, as they have a pointer size encoded in the command.
For example, PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID in 32-bit world will be encoded
as 0x80042407, but 64-bit kernel will expect 0x80082407. In
result the ioctl will fail returning -ENOTTY.

size as compat_ioctl file operation.

Without this patch, dell-wmi is trying to access elements of dynamically
allocated array without checking the array size. This can lead to memory
corruption or a kernel panic. This patch adds the missing checks for
array size.
The rcu_gp_kthread_wake() function checks for three conditions before
waking up grace period kthreads:
* Is the thread we are trying to wake up the current thread?
* Are the gp_flags zero? (all threads wait on non-zero gp_flags condition)
* Is there no thread created for this flavour, hence nothing to wake up?
If any one of these condition is true, we do not call wake_up().
It was found that there are quite a few avoidable wake ups both during
idle time and under stress induced by rcutorture.
Here case{1-3} are the cases listed above. We can avoid these wake
ups by using rcu_gp_kthread_wake() to conditionally wake up the grace
period kthreads.
There is a comment about an implied barrier supplied by the wake_up()
logic. This barrier is necessary for the awakened thread to see the
updated ->gp_flags. This flag is always being updated with the root node
lock held. Also, the awakened thread tries to acquire the root node lock
before reading ->gp_flags because of which there is proper ordering.
Hence this commit tries to avoid calling wake_up() whenever we can by
using rcu_gp_kthread_wake() function.

The rcu_start_gp_advanced() function currently uses irq_work_queue()
to defer wakeups of the RCU grace-period kthread. This deferring
is necessary to avoid RCU-scheduler deadlocks involving the rcu_node
structure's lock, meaning that RCU cannot call any of the scheduler's
wake-up functions while holding one of these locks.
Unfortunately, the second and subsequent calls to irq_work_queue() are
ignored, and the first call will be ignored (aside from queuing the work
item) if the scheduler-clock tick is turned off. This is OK for many
uses, especially those where irq_work_queue() is called from an interrupt
or softirq handler, because in those cases the scheduler-clock-tick state
will be re-evaluated, which will turn the scheduler-clock tick back on.
On the next tick, any deferred work will then be processed.
However, this strategy does not always work for RCU, which can be invoked
at process level from idle CPUs. In this case, the tick might never
be turned back on, indefinitely defering a grace-period start request.
Note that the RCU CPU stall detector cannot see this condition, because
there is no RCU grace period in progress. Therefore, we can (and do!)
see long tens-of-seconds stalls in grace-period handling. In theory,
we could see a full grace-period hang, but rcutorture testing to date
has seen only the tens-of-seconds stalls. Event tracing demonstrates
that irq_work_queue() is being called repeatedly to no effect during
these stalls: The "newreq" event appears repeatedly from a task that is
not one of the grace-period kthreads.
In theory, irq_work_queue() might be fixed to avoid this sort of issue,
but RCU's requirements are unusual and it is quite straightforward to pass
wake-up responsibility up through RCU's call chain, so that the wakeup
happens when the offending locks are released.
This commit therefore makes this change. The rcu_start_gp_advanced(),
rcu_start_future_gp(), rcu_accelerate_cbs(), rcu_advance_cbs(),
__note_gp_changes(), and rcu_start_gp() functions now return a boolean
which indicates when a wake-up is needed. A new rcu_gp_kthread_wake()
does the wakeup when it is necessary and safe to do so: No self-wakes,
no wake-ups if the ->gp_flags field indicates there is no need (as in
someone else did the wake-up before we got around to it), and no wake-ups
before the grace-period kthread has been created.

This patch removes the assumption made previously, that we only need to
check the delegation stateid when it matches the stateid on a cached
open.
If we believe that we hold a delegation for this file, then we must assume
that its stateid may have been revoked or expired too. If we don't test it
then our state recovery process may end up caching open/lock state in a
situation where it should not.
We therefore rename the function nfs41_clear_delegation_stateid as
nfs41_check_delegation_stateid, and change it to always run through the
delegation stateid test and recovery process as outlined in RFC5661.
Any attempt to call nfs_remove_bad_delegation() while a delegation is being
returned is currently a no-op. This means that we can end up looping
forever in nfs_end_delegation_return() if something causes the delegation
to be revoked.
This patch adds a mechanism whereby the state recovery code can communicate
to the delegation return code that the delegation is no longer valid and
that it should not be used when reclaiming state.
It also changes the return value for nfs4_handle_delegation_recall_error()
to ensure that nfs_end_delegation_return() does not reattempt the lock
reclaim before state recovery is done.
Variable 'err' needn't be initialized when nfs_getattr() uses it to

NFSv4.0 does not have TEST_STATEID/FREE_STATEID functionality, so
unlike NFSv4.1, the recovery procedure when stateids have expired or
have been revoked requires us to just forget the delegation.
md_check_recovery will skip any recovery and also clear
MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED if MD_RECOVERY_FROZEN is set.
So when we clear _FROZEN, we must set _NEEDED and ensure that
md_check_recovery gets run.
Otherwise we could miss out on something that is needed.
In particular, this can make it impossible to remove a
failed device from an array is the 'recovery-needed' processing

[ 0.000000] RAMDISK: [mem 0x35e04000-0x36ef9fff]
and we fault at 0x35e04304.
And since this guest doesn't relocate the ramdisk, we don't do the
computation which will give us the correct virtual address and we end up
with the PA.
So, we should actually be using virtual addresses on 32-bit too by the
time we're freeing the initrd. Do that then!

The power_supply_get_by_phandle() on error returns ENODEV or NULL.
The driver later expects obtained pointer to power supply to be
valid or NULL. If it is not NULL then it dereferences it in
bq2415x_notifier_call() which would lead to dereferencing ENODEV-value
pointer.
Properly handle the power_supply_get_by_phandle() error case by
replacing error value with NULL. This indicates that usb charger

The charger-manager should get reference to fuel gauge power supply on
each use of get_property callback. The thermal zone 'tzd' field of
power supply should not be used because of the same reason.
Additionally this change solves also the issue with nested
thermal_zone_get_temp() calls and related false lockdep positive for
deadlock for thermal zone's mutex [1]. When fuel gauge is used as source of
temperature then the charger manager forwards its get_temp calls to fuel
gauge thermal zone. So actually different mutexes are used (one for
charger manager thermal zone and second for fuel gauge thermal zone) but
for lockdep this is one class of mutex.
The recursion is removed by retrieving temperature through power
supply's get_property().
In case external thermal zone is used ('cm-thermal-zone' property is
present in DTS) the recursion does not exist. Charger manager simply
exports POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_TEMP_AMBIENT property (instead of
POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_TEMP) thus no thermal zone is created for this power
supply.

Sometimes on Dell Latitude laptops psmouse/alps driver receive invalid ALPS
protocol V3 packets with bit7 set in last byte. More often it can be
reproduced on Dell Latitude E6440 or E7440 with closed lid and pushing
cover above touchpad.
If bit7 in last packet byte is set then it is not valid ALPS packet. I was
told that ALPS devices never send these packets. It is not know yet who
send those packets, it could be Dell EC, bug in BIOS and also bug in
touchpad firmware...
With this patch alps driver does not process those invalid packets, but
instead of reporting PSMOUSE_BAD_DATA, getting into out of sync state,
getting back in sync with the next byte and spam dmesg we return
PSMOUSE_FULL_PACKET. If driver is truly out of sync we'll fail the checks
on the next byte and report PSMOUSE_BAD_DATA then.
On some Dell Latitude laptops ALPS device or Dell EC send one invalid byte
in 6 bytes ALPS packet. In this case psmouse driver enter out of sync
state. It looks like that all other bytes in packets are valid and also
device working properly. So there is no need to do full device reset, just
need to wait for byte which match condition for first byte (start of
packet). Because ALPS packets are bigger (6 or 8 bytes) default limit is
small.
This patch increase number of invalid bytes to size of 2 ALPS packets which
psmouse driver can drop before do full reset.
Resetting ALPS devices take some time and when doing reset on some Dell
laptops touchpad, trackstick and also keyboard do not respond. So it is
better to do it only if really necessary.
5th and 6th byte of ALPS trackstick V3 protocol match condition for first
byte of PS/2 3 bytes packet. When driver enters out of sync state and ALPS
trackstick is sending data then driver match 5th, 6th and next 1st bytes as
PS/2.
It basically means if user is using trackstick when driver is in out of
sync state driver will never resync. Processing these bytes as 3 bytes PS/2
data cause total mess (random cursor movements, random clicks) and make
trackstick unusable until psmouse driver decide to do full device reset.
Lot of users reported problems with ALPS devices on Dell Latitude E6440,
E6540 and E7440 laptops. ALPS device or Dell EC for unknown reason send
some invalid ALPS PS/2 bytes which cause driver out of sync. It looks like
that i8042 and psmouse/alps driver always receive group of 6 bytes packets
so there are no missing bytes and no bytes were inserted between valid
ones.
This patch does not fix root of problem with ALPS devices found in Dell
Latitude laptops but it does not allow to process some (invalid)
subsequence of 6 bytes ALPS packets as 3 bytes PS/2 when driver is out of
sync.
So with this patch trackstick input device does not report bogus data when
also driver is out of sync, so trackstick should be usable on those
machines.
The dm-raid superblock (struct dm_raid_superblock) is padded to 512
bytes and that size is being used to read it in from the metadata
device into one preallocated page.
Reading or writing this on a 512-byte sector device works fine but on
a 4096-byte sector device this fails.
Set the dm-raid superblock's size to the logical block size of the
metadata device, because IO at that size is guaranteed too work. Also
add a size check to avoid silent partial metadata loss in case the
superblock should ever grow past the logical block size or PAGE_SIZE.

The walk code was using a 'ro_spine' to hold it's locked btree nodes.
But this data structure is designed for the rolling lock scheme, and
as such automatically unlocks blocks that are two steps up the call
chain. This is not suitable for the simple recursive walk algorithm,
which retraces its steps.
This code is only used by the persistent array code, which in turn is
only used by dm-cache. In order to trigger it you need to have a
mapping tree that is more than 2 levels deep; which equates to 8-16
million cache blocks. For instance a 4T ssd with a very small block
size of 32k only just triggers this bug.
The fix just places the locked blocks on the stack, and stops using
the ro_spine altogether.

The shrinker uses gfp flags to indicate what kind of operation can the
driver wait for. If __GFP_IO flag is present, the driver can wait for
block I/O operations, if __GFP_FS flag is present, the driver can wait on
operations involving the filesystem.
dm-bufio tested for __GFP_IO. However, dm-bufio can run on a loop block
device that makes calls into the filesystem. If __GFP_IO is present and
__GFP_FS isn't, dm-bufio could still block on filesystem operations if it
runs on a loop block device.
The change from __GFP_IO to __GFP_FS supposedly fixes one observed (though
unreproducible) deadlock involving dm-bufio and loop device.

When experimenting with patches to provide kprobes support for aarch64
smp machines would hang when inserting breakpoints into kernel code.
The hangs were caused by a race condition in the code called by
aarch64_insn_patch_text_sync(). The first processor in the
aarch64_insn_patch_text_cb() function would patch the code while other
processors were still entering the function and incrementing the
cpu_count field. This resulted in some processors never observing the
exit condition and exiting the function. Thus, processors in the
system hung.
The first processor to enter the patching function performs the
patching and signals that the patching is complete with an increment
of the cpu_count field. When all the processors have incremented the
cpu_count field the cpu_count will be num_cpus_online()+1 and they
will return to normal execution.

For pNFS direct writes, layout driver may dynamically allocate ds_cinfo.buckets.
So we need to take care to free them when freeing dreq.
Ideally this needs to be done inside layout driver where ds_cinfo.buckets
are allocated. But buckets are attached to dreq and reused across LD IO iterations.
So I feel it's OK to free them in the generic layer.
Found by the UC-KLEE tool: A user could supply less input to
firewire-cdev ioctls than write- or write/read-type ioctl handlers
expect. The handlers used data from uninitialized kernel stack then.
This could partially leak back to the user if the kernel subsequently
generated fw_cdev_event_'s (to be read from the firewire-cdev fd)
which notably would contain the _u64 closure field which many of the
ioctl argument structures contain.
The fact that the handlers would act on random garbage input is a
lesser issue since all handlers must check their input anyway.
The fix simply always null-initializes the entire ioctl argument buffer
regardless of the actual length of expected user input. That is, a
runtime overhead of memset(..., 40) is added to each firewirew-cdev
ioctl() call. [Comment from Clemens Ladisch: This part of the stack is
most likely to be already in the cache.]
Remarks:
- There was never any leak from kernel stack to the ioctl output
buffer itself. IOW, it was not possible to read kernel stack by a
read-type or write/read-type ioctl alone; the leak could at most
happen in combination with read()ing subsequent event data.
- The actual expected minimum user input of each ioctl from
include/uapi/linux/firewire-cdev.h is, in bytes:
[0x00] = 32, [0x05] = 4, [0x0a] = 16, [0x0f] = 20, [0x14] = 16,

ARM64 currently doesn't fix up faults on the single-byte (strb) case of
__clear_user... which means that we can cause a nasty kernel panic as an
ordinary user with any multiple PAGE_SIZE+1 read from /dev/zero.
i.e.: dd if=/dev/zero of=foo ibs=1 count=1 (or ibs=65537, etc.)
This is a pretty obscure bug in the general case since we'll only
__do_kernel_fault (since there's no extable entry for pc) if the
mmap_sem is contended. However, with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled, we'll
always fault.
if (!down_read_trylock(&mm->mmap_sem)) {
if (!user_mode(regs) && !search_exception_tables(regs->pc))
goto no_context;
retry:
down_read(&mm->mmap_sem);
} else {
/*
* The above down_read_trylock() might have succeeded in
* which
* case, we'll have missed the might_sleep() from
* down_read().
*/
might_sleep();
if (!user_mode(regs) && !search_exception_tables(regs->pc))
goto no_context;
}
Fix that by adding an extable entry for the strb instruction, since it
touches user memory, similar to the other stores in __clear_user.
To speed up decompression, the decompressor sets up a flat, cacheable
mapping of memory. However, when there is insufficient space to hold
the page tables for this mapping, we don't bother to enable the caches
and subsequently skip all the cache maintenance hooks.
Skipping the cache maintenance before jumping to the relocated code
allows the processor to predict the branch and populate the I-cache
with stale data before the relocation loop has completed (since a
bootloader may have SCTLR.I set, which permits normal, cacheable
instruction fetches regardless of SCTLR.M).
This patch moves the cache maintenance check into the maintenance
routines themselves, allowing the v6/v7 versions to invalidate the
I-cache regardless of the MMU state.

The power management code calls into the display code for

Upon receiving the last fragment, all but the first fragment
are freed, but the multicast check for statistics at the end

Since multicast frames cannot be fragmented and we check for
this early in the function, just modify that check to also
do the accounting to fix the issue.
Due to the time it takes to process the beacon that started the CSA
process, we may be late for the switch if we try to reach exactly
beacon 0. To avoid that, use count - 1 when calculating the switch time.
If we are switching from an HT40+ to an HT40- channel (or vice-versa),
we need the secondary channel offset IE to specify what is the
post-CSA offset to be used. This applies both to beacons and to probe
responses.
In ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie() we were ignoring this IE from
beacons and using the *current* HT information IE instead. This was
causing us to use the same offset as before the switch.
Fix that by using the secondary channel offset IE also for beacons and
don't ever use the pre-switch offset. Additionally, remove the
"beacon" argument from ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie(), since it's not
needed anymore.
When an interface is deleted, an ongoing hardware scan is canceled and
the driver must abort the scan, at the very least reporting completion
while the interface is removed.
However, if it scheduled the work that might only run after everything
is said and done, which leads to cfg80211 warning that the scan isn't
reported as finished yet; this is no fault of the driver, it already
did, but mac80211 hasn't processed it.
To fix this situation, flush the delayed work when the interface being
removed is the one that was executing the scan.
The driver is not released when ieee80211_register_hw fails in
mac80211_hwsim_create_radio, leading to the access to the unregistered (and
possibly freed) device in platform_driver_unregister:

a 16-byte buffer to pseries_rng_data_read(). Unfortunately, plpar_hcall()
returns four 64-bit values and trashes 16 bytes on the stack.
This bug has been lying around for a long time. It got unveiled by:
It may trig a oops while loading or unloading the pseries-rng module for both
PowerVM and PowerKVM guests.
This patch does two things:
- pass an intermediate well sized buffer to plpar_hcall(). This is acceptalbe
since we're not on a hot path.
- move to the new read API so that we know the return buffer size for sure.
