On an early VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME failure (i.e. one which sets the
VM-instruction error field of the current VMCS), the launch state of
the current VMCS is not set to "launched," and the VM-exit information
fields of the current VMCS (including IDT-vectoring information and
exit reason) are stale.
On a late VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME failure (i.e. one which sets the high bit
of the exit reason field), the launch state of the current VMCS is not
set to "launched," and only two of the VM-exit information fields of
the current VMCS are modified (exit reason and exit
qualification). The remaining VM-exit information fields of the
current VMCS (including IDT-vectoring information, in particular) are
stale.

For example, the following could occur, making us miss a wakeup:
CPU0 CPU1
kvm_vcpu_block kvm_mips_comparecount_func
[L] swait_active(&vcpu->wq)
[S] prepare_to_swait(&vcpu->wq)
[L] if (!kvm_vcpu_has_pending_timer(vcpu))
schedule() [S] queue_timer_int(vcpu)
Ensure that the swait_active() check is not hoisted over the interrupt.

This is a generic call and can be suceptible to races

Which is the equivalent of what we have in regular waitqueues.
I'm not crazy about the name, but this also helps us get both
apis closer -- which iirc comes originally from the -net folks.
We also duplicate the comments for the lockless swait_active(),
from wait.h. Future users will make use of this interface.

The value of the guest_irq argument to vmx_update_pi_irte() is
ultimately coming from a KVM_IRQFD API call. Do not BUG() in
vmx_update_pi_irte() if the value is out-of bounds. (Especially,
since KVM as a whole seems to hang after that.)
Instead, print a message only once if we find that we don't have a
route for a certain IRQ (which can be out-of-bounds or within the
array).
This fixes CVE-2017-1000252.

When new directory 'DIR1' is created in a directory 'DIR0' with SGID bit
set, DIR1 is expected to have SGID bit set (and owning group equal to
the owning group of 'DIR0'). However when 'DIR0' also has some default
ACLs that 'DIR1' inherits, setting these ACLs will result in SGID bit on
'DIR1' to get cleared if user is not member of the owning group.
Fix the problem by creating __orangefs_set_acl() function that does not
call posix_acl_update_mode() and use it when inheriting ACLs. That
prevents SGID bit clearing and the mode has been properly set by
posix_acl_create() anyway.

Now that we have added breaks in the wait queue scan and allow bookmark
on scan position, we put this logic in the wake_up_page_bit function.
We can have very long page wait list in large system where multiple
pages share the same wait list. We break the wake up walk here to allow
other cpus a chance to access the list, and not to disable the interrupts
when traversing the list for too long. This reduces the interrupt and
rescheduling latency, and excessive page wait queue lock hold time.

We encountered workloads that have very long wake up list on large
systems. A waker takes a long time to traverse the entire wake list and
execute all the wake functions.
We saw page wait list that are up to 3700+ entries long in tests of
large 4 and 8 socket systems. It took 0.8 sec to traverse such list
during wake up. Any other CPU that contends for the list spin lock will
spin for a long time. It is a result of the numa balancing migration of
hot pages that are shared by many threads.
Multiple CPUs waking are queued up behind the lock, and the last one
queued has to wait until all CPUs did all the wakeups.
The page wait list is traversed with interrupt disabled, which caused
various problems. This was the original cause that triggered the NMI
watch dog timer in: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9800303/ . Only
extending the NMI watch dog timer there helped.
This patch bookmarks the waker's scan position in wake list and break
the wake up walk, to allow access to the list before the waker resume
its walk down the rest of the wait list. It lowers the interrupt and
rescheduling latency.
This patch also provides a performance boost when combined with the next
patch to break up page wakeup list walk. We saw 22% improvement in the
will-it-scale file pread2 test on a Xeon Phi system running 256 threads.

This is because the stack trace code includes the stack frames for
itself. This is incorrect behaviour, and also leads to "skip" doing the
wrong thing (which is the number of stack frames to avoid recording.)
Perversely, it does the right thing when passed a non-current thread.
Fix this by ensuring that we have a known constant number of frames
above the main stack trace function, and always skip these.

GFP_TEMPORARY was introduced by commit e12ba74d8ff3 ("Group short-lived
and reclaimable kernel allocations") along with __GFP_RECLAIMABLE. It's
primary motivation was to allow users to tell that an allocation is
short lived and so the allocator can try to place such allocations close
together and prevent long term fragmentation. As much as this sounds
like a reasonable semantic it becomes much less clear when to use the
highlevel GFP_TEMPORARY allocation flag. How long is temporary? Can the
context holding that memory sleep? Can it take locks? It seems there is
no good answer for those questions.
The current implementation of GFP_TEMPORARY is basically GFP_KERNEL |
__GFP_RECLAIMABLE which in itself is tricky because basically none of
the existing caller provide a way to reclaim the allocated memory. So
this is rather misleading and hard to evaluate for any benefits.
I have checked some random users and none of them has added the flag
with a specific justification. I suspect most of them just copied from
other existing users and others just thought it might be a good idea to
use without any measuring. This suggests that GFP_TEMPORARY just
motivates for cargo cult usage without any reasoning.
I believe that our gfp flags are quite complex already and especially
those with highlevel semantic should be clearly defined to prevent from
confusion and abuse. Therefore I propose dropping GFP_TEMPORARY and
replace all existing users to simply use GFP_KERNEL. Please note that
SLAB users with shrinkers will still get __GFP_RECLAIMABLE heuristic and
so they will be placed properly for memory fragmentation prevention.
I can see reasons we might want some gfp flag to reflect shorterm
allocations but I propose starting from a clear semantic definition and
only then add users with proper justification.
This was been brought up before LSF this year by Matthew [1] and it
turned out that GFP_TEMPORARY really doesn't have a clear semantic. It
seems to be a heuristic without any measured advantage for most (if not
all) its current users. The follow up discussion has revealed that
opinions on what might be temporary allocation differ a lot between
developers. So rather than trying to tweak existing users into a
semantic which they haven't expected I propose to simply remove the flag
and start from scratch if we really need a semantic for short term
allocations.

gcc-7 points out that a negative port_num value would overflow the
string buffer:
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/sysfs.c: In function 'mlx4_ib_device_register_sysfs':
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/sysfs.c:251:16: error: 'sprintf' may write a terminating nul past the end of the destination [-Werror=format-overflow=]
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/sysfs.c:251:2: note: 'sprintf' output between 2 and 11 bytes into a destination of size 10
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/sysfs.c:303:17: error: 'sprintf' may write a terminating nul past the end of the destination [-Werror=format-overflow=]
drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx4/sysfs.c:303:3: note: 'sprintf' output between 2 and 11 bytes into a destination of size 10
While we should be able to assume that port_num is positive here, making
the buffer one byte longer has no downsides and avoids the warning.

gcc points out a minor bug in the handling of unknown cookie types,
which could result in a string overflow when the integer is copied into
a 3-byte string:
fs/fscache/object-list.c: In function 'fscache_objlist_show':
fs/fscache/object-list.c:265:19: error: 'sprintf' may write a terminating nul past the end of the destination [-Werror=format-overflow=]
sprintf(_type, "%02u", cookie->def->type);
^~~~~~
fs/fscache/object-list.c:265:4: note: 'sprintf' output between 3 and 4 bytes into a destination of size 3
This is currently harmless as no code sets a type other than 0 or 1, but
it makes sense to use snprintf() here to avoid overflowing the array if
that changes.

IDR only supports non-negative IDs. There used to be a 'WARN_ON_ONCE(id <
0)' in idr_replace(), but it was intentionally removed by commit
2e1c9b286765 ("idr: remove WARN_ON_ONCE() on negative IDs").
Then it was added back by commit 0a835c4f090a ("Reimplement IDR and IDA
using the radix tree"). However it seems that adding it back was a
mistake, given that some users such as drm_gem_handle_delete()
(DRM_IOCTL_GEM_CLOSE) pass in a value from userspace to idr_replace(),
allowing the WARN_ON_ONCE to be triggered. drm_gem_handle_delete()
actually just wants idr_replace() to return an error code if the ID is
not allocated, including in the case where the ID is invalid (negative).
So once again remove the bogus WARN_ON_ONCE().
This bug was found by syzkaller, which encountered the following
warning:
