2015-02-28mm: add missing __PAGETABLE_{PUD,PMD}_FOLDED definesKirill A. Shutemov6-0/+10
Core mm expects __PAGETABLE_{PUD,PMD}_FOLDED to be defined if these page table levels folded. Usually, these defines are provided by <asm-generic/pgtable-nopmd.h> and <asm-generic/pgtable-nopud.h>. But some architectures fold page table levels in a custom way. They need to define these macros themself. This patch adds missing defines. The patch fixes mm->nr_pmds underflow and eliminates dead __pmd_alloc() and __pud_alloc() on architectures without these page table levels. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2015-02-28mm: page_alloc: revert inadvertent !__GFP_FS retry behavior changeJohannes Weiner1-1/+8
Historically, !__GFP_FS allocations were not allowed to invoke the OOM killer once reclaim had failed, but nevertheless kept looping in the allocator. Commit 9879de7373fc ("mm: page_alloc: embed OOM killing naturally into allocation slowpath"), which should have been a simple cleanup patch, accidentally changed the behavior to aborting the allocation at that point. This creates problems with filesystem callers (?) that currently rely on the allocator waiting for other tasks to intervene. Revert the behavior as it shouldn't have been changed as part of a cleanup patch.

2015-02-28kernel/sys.c: fix UNAME26 for 4.0Jon DeVree1-1/+2
There's a uname workaround for broken userspace which can't handle kernel versions of 3.x. Update it for 4.x.

2015-02-28mm: memcontrol: use "max" instead of "infinity" in control knobsJohannes Weiner2-8/+8
The memcg control knobs indicate the highest possible value using the symbolic name "infinity", which is long and awkward to type. Switch to the string "max", which is just as descriptive but shorter and sweeter. This changes a user interface, so do it before the release and before the development flag is dropped from the default hierarchy.

2015-02-28zram: use proper type to update max_used_pagesJoonsoo Kim1-1/+1
max_used_pages is defined as atomic_long_t so we need to use unsigned long to keep temporary value for it rather than int which is smaller than unsigned long in a 64 bit system.

Fix a conditional statement checking for NULL in both ds1685_rtc_sysfs_time_regs_show and ds1685_rtc_sysfs_time_regs_store that was using a logical AND when it should be using a logical OR so that we fail out of the function properly if the condition ever evaluates to true.

2015-02-28nilfs2: fix potential memory overrun on inodeRyusuke Konishi1-3/+44
Each inode of nilfs2 stores a root node of a b-tree, and it turned out to have a memory overrun issue: Each b-tree node of nilfs2 stores a set of key-value pairs and the number of them (in "bn_nchildren" member of nilfs_btree_node struct), as well as a few other "bn_*" members. Since the value of "bn_nchildren" is used for operations on the key-values within the b-tree node, it can cause memory access overrun if a large number is incorrectly set to "bn_nchildren". For instance, nilfs_btree_node_lookup() function determines the range of binary search with it, and too large "bn_nchildren" leads nilfs_btree_node_get_key() in that function to overrun. As for intermediate b-tree nodes, this is prevented by a sanity check performed when each node is read from a drive, however, no sanity check has been done for root nodes stored in inodes. This patch fixes the issue by adding missing sanity check against b-tree root nodes so that it's called when on-memory inodes are read from ifile, inode metadata file.
