Fix prlimit64 for suid/sgid processes
Since check_prlimit_permission always fails in the case of SUID/GUID
processes, such processes are not able to read or set their own limits.
This commit changes this by assuming that process can always read/change
its own limits.
NTFS: Fix invalid pointer dereference in ntfs_mft_record_alloc().
In ntfs_mft_record_alloc() when mapping the new extent mft record with
map_extent_mft_record() we overwrite @m with the return value and on
error, we then try to use the old @m but that is no longer there as @m
now contains an error code instead so we crash when dereferencing the
error code as if it were a pointer.
The simple fix is to use a temporary variable to store the return value
thus preserving the original @m for later use. This is a backport from
the commercial Tuxera-NTFS driver and is well tested...
Thanks go to Julia Lawall for pointing this out (whilst I had fixed it
in the commercial driver I had failed to fix it in the Linux kernel).

libata: set queue DMA alignment to sector size for ATAPI too
ata_pio_sectors() expects buffer for each sector to be contained in a
single page; otherwise, it ends up overrunning the first page. This
is achieved by setting queue DMA alignment. If sector_size is smaller
than PAGE_SIZE and all buffers are sector_size aligned, buffer for
each sector is always contained in a single page.
This wasn't applied to ATAPI devices but IDENTIFY_PACKET is executed
as ATA_PROT_PIO and thus uses ata_pio_sectors(). Newer versions of
udev issue IDENTIFY_PACKET with unaligned buffer triggering the
problem and causing oops.
This patch fixes the problem by setting sdev->sector_size to
ATA_SECT_SIZE on ATATPI devices and always setting DMA alignment to
sector_size. While at it, add a warning for the unlikely but still
possible scenario where sector_size is larger than PAGE_SIZE, in which
case the alignment wouldn't be enough.

squashfs: fix use of uninitialised variable in zlib & xz decompressors
Fix potential use of uninitialised variable caused by recent
decompressor code optimisations.
In zlib_uncompress (zlib_wrapper.c) we have
int zlib_err, zlib_init = 0;
...
do {
...
if (avail == 0) {
offset = 0;
put_bh(bh[k++]);
continue;
}
...
zlib_err = zlib_inflate(stream, Z_SYNC_FLUSH);
...
} while (zlib_err == Z_OK);
If continue is executed (avail == 0) then the while condition will be
evaluated testing zlib_err, which is uninitialised first time around the
loop.
Fix this by getting rid of the 'if (avail == 0)' condition test, this
edge condition should not be being handled in the decompressor code, and
instead handle it generically in the caller code.
Similarly for xz_wrapper.c.
Incidentally, on most architectures (bar Mips and Parisc), no
uninitialised variable warning is generated by gcc, this is because the
while condition test on continue is optimised out and not performed
(when executing continue zlib_err has not been changed since entering
the loop, and logically if the while condition was true previously, then
it's still true).
radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged() always tags the root tag with settag
if the root tag is set with iftag even if there are no iftag tags
in the specified range (Of course, there are some iftag tags
outside the specified range).
__lookup_tag():
- Return with 0.
- Return with the index which is not bigger than the old one as the
input parameter.
Therefore the following "while" repeats forever because the above
conditions cause "ret" not to be updated and the cur_index cannot be
changed into the bigger one.
radix_tree_gang_lookup_tag_slot():
1178 while (ret < max_items) {
1179 unsigned int slots_found;
1180 unsigned long next_index; /* Index of next search */
1181
1182 if (cur_index > max_index)
1183 break;
1184 slots_found = __lookup_tag(node, results + ret,
1185 cur_index, max_items - ret, &next_index,
tag);
1186 ret += slots_found;
// cannot update ret because slots_found == 0.
// so, this while loops forever.
1187 if (next_index == 0)
1188 break;
1189 cur_index = next_index;

(2) Why does __lookup_tag() return with 0 and doesn't update the index?
Assuming the following:
- the one of the slot in radix_tree_node is NULL.
- the one of the tag which corresponds to the slot sets with
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE or other.
- In a certain height(!=0), the corresponding index is 0.
a) __lookup_tag() notices that the tag is set.
1005 static unsigned int
1006 __lookup_tag(struct radix_tree_node *slot, void ***results, unsigned long index,
1007 unsigned int max_items, unsigned long *next_index, unsigned int tag)
1008 {
1009 unsigned int nr_found = 0;
1010 unsigned int shift, height;
1011
1012 height = slot->height;
1013 if (height == 0)
1014 goto out;
1015 shift = (height-1) * RADIX_TREE_MAP_SHIFT;
1016
1017 while (height > 0) {
1018 unsigned long i = (index >> shift) & RADIX_TREE_MAP_MASK ;
1019
1020 for (;;) {
1021 if (tag_get(slot, tag, i))
1022 break;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* the index is not updated yet.
b) __lookup_tag() notices that the slot is NULL.
1023 index &= ~((1UL << shift) - 1);
1024 index += 1UL << shift;
1025 if (index == 0)
1026 goto out; /* 32-bit wraparound */
1027 i++;
1028 if (i == RADIX_TREE_MAP_SIZE)
1029 goto out;
1030 }
1031 height--;
1032 if (height == 0) { /* Bottom level: grab some items */
...
1055 }
1056 shift -= RADIX_TREE_MAP_SHIFT;
1057 slot = rcu_dereference_raw(slot->slots[i]);
1058 if (slot == NULL)
1059 break;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
c) __lookup_tag() doesn't update the index and return with 0.
Because radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged() always sets the root tag with
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE if the root tag is set with PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY,
even if there is no tag which can be set with PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE
in the specified range (from *first_indexp to last_index). Of course,
some PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY nodes must exist outside the specified range.
(radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged() is called only from tag_pages_for_writeback())
640 unsigned long radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged(struct radix_tree_root
*root,
641 unsigned long *first_indexp, unsigned long last_index,
642 unsigned long nr_to_tag,
643 unsigned int iftag, unsigned int settag)
644 {
645 unsigned int height = root->height;
646 struct radix_tree_path path[height];
647 struct radix_tree_path *pathp = path;
648 struct radix_tree_node *slot;
649 unsigned int shift;
650 unsigned long tagged = 0;
651 unsigned long index = *first_indexp;
652
653 last_index = min(last_index, radix_tree_maxindex(height));
654 if (index > last_index)
655 return 0;
656 if (!nr_to_tag)
657 return 0;
658 if (!root_tag_get(root, iftag)) {
659 *first_indexp = last_index + 1;
660 return 0;
661 }
662 if (height == 0) {
663 *first_indexp = last_index + 1;
664 root_tag_set(root, settag);
665 return 1;
666 }
...
733 root_tag_set(root, settag);
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
734 *first_indexp = index;
735
736 return tagged;
737 }
As the result, there is no radix_tree_node which is set with
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE but the root tag(radix_tree_root) is set with
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE.

memcg: fix race at move_parent around compound_order()
A fix up mem_cgroup_move_parent() which use compound_order() in
asynchronous manner. This compound_order() may return unknown value
because we don't take lock. Use PageTransHuge() and HPAGE_SIZE instead
of it.
Also clean up for mem_cgroup_move_parent().
- remove unnecessary initialization of local variable.
- rename charge_size -> page_size
- remove unnecessary (wrong) comment.
- added a comment about THP.
Note:
Current design take compound_page_lock() in caller of move_account().
This should be revisited when we implement direct move_task of hugepage
without splitting.

Callers of migrate_pages should putback_lru_pages to return pages

It is more clear to point out that the caller has to call it if

Commit 5d6892407 ("thp: select CONFIG_COMPACTION if TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE

warning: (TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE) selects COMPACTION which has unmet
direct dependencies (EXPERIMENTAL && HUGETLB_PAGE && MMU)
COMPACTION doesn't depend on HUGETLB_PAGE, it doesn't depend on THP
either, it is also useful for regular alloc_pages(order > 0) including
the very kernel stack during fork (THREAD_ORDER = 1). It's always
better to enable COMPACTION.
The warning should be an error because we would end up with MIGRATION
not selected, and COMPACTION wouldn't work without migration (despite it
seems to build with an inline migrate_pages returning -ENOSYS).
I'd also like to remove EXPERIMENTAL: compaction has been in the kernel
for some releases (for full safety the default remains disabled which I
think is enough).

mm: clear pages_scanned only if draining a pcp adds pages to the buddy allocator
Commit 0e093d99763e ("writeback: do not sleep on the congestion queue if
there are no congested BDIs or if significant congestion is not being
encountered in the current zone") uncovered a livelock in the page
allocator that resulted in tasks infinitely looping trying to find
memory and kswapd running at 100% cpu.
The issue occurs because drain_all_pages() is called immediately
following direct reclaim when no memory is freed and try_to_free_pages()
returns non-zero because all zones in the zonelist do not have their
all_unreclaimable flag set.
When draining the per-cpu pagesets back to the buddy allocator for each
zone, the zone->pages_scanned counter is cleared to avoid erroneously
setting zone->all_unreclaimable later. The problem is that no pages may
actually be drained and, thus, the unreclaimable logic never fails
direct reclaim so the oom killer may be invoked.
This apparently only manifested after wait_iff_congested() was
introduced and the zone was full of anonymous memory that would not
congest the backing store. The page allocator would infinitely loop if
there were no other tasks waiting to be scheduled and clear
zone->pages_scanned because of drain_all_pages() as the result of this
change before kswapd could scan enough pages to trigger the reclaim
logic. Additionally, with every loop of the page allocator and in the
reclaim path, kswapd would be kicked and would end up running at 100%
cpu. In this scenario, current and kswapd are all running continuously
with kswapd incrementing zone->pages_scanned and current clearing it.
The problem is even more pronounced when current swaps some of its
memory to swap cache and the reclaimable logic then considers all active
anonymous memory in the all_unreclaimable logic, which requires a much
higher zone->pages_scanned value for try_to_free_pages() to return zero
that is never attainable in this scenario.
Before wait_iff_congested(), the page allocator would incur an
unconditional timeout and allow kswapd to elevate zone->pages_scanned to
a level that the oom killer would be called the next time it loops.
The fix is to only attempt to drain pcp pages if there is actually a
quantity to be drained. The unconditional clearing of
zone->pages_scanned in free_pcppages_bulk() need not be changed since
other callers already ensure that draining will occur. This patch
ensures that free_pcppages_bulk() will actually free memory before
calling into it from drain_all_pages() so zone->pages_scanned is only
cleared if appropriate.

mm: fix deferred congestion timeout if preferred zone is not allowed
Before 0e093d99763e ("writeback: do not sleep on the congestion queue if
there are no congested BDIs or if significant congestion is not being
encountered in the current zone"), preferred_zone was only used for NUMA
statistics, to determine the zoneidx from which to allocate from given
the type requested, and whether to utilize memory compaction.
wait_iff_congested(), though, uses preferred_zone to determine if the
congestion wait should be deferred because its dirty pages are backed by
a congested bdi. This incorrectly defers the timeout and busy loops in
the page allocator with various cond_resched() calls if preferred_zone
is not allowed in the current context, usually consuming 100% of a cpu.
This patch ensures preferred_zone is an allowed zone in the fastpath
depending on whether current is constrained by its cpuset or nodes in
its mempolicy (when the nodemask passed is non-NULL). This is correct
since the fastpath allocation always passes ALLOC_CPUSET when trying to
allocate memory. In the slowpath, this patch resets preferred_zone to
the first zone of the allowed type when the allocation is not
constrained by current's cpuset, i.e. it does not pass ALLOC_CPUSET.
This patch also ensures preferred_zone is from the set of allowed nodes
when called from within direct reclaim since allocations are always
constrained by cpusets in this context (it is blockable).
Both of these uses of cpuset_current_mems_allowed are protected by
get_mems_allowed().
