2014-12-18mm: cma: split cma-reserved in dmesg logPintu Kumar3-2/+6
When the system boots up, in the dmesg logs we can see the memory statistics along with total reserved as below. Memory: 458840k/458840k available, 65448k reserved, 0K highmem When CMA is enabled, still the total reserved memory remains the same. However, the CMA memory is not considered as reserved. But, when we see /proc/meminfo, the CMA memory is part of free memory. This creates confusion. This patch corrects the problem by properly subtracting the CMA reserved memory from the total reserved memory in dmesg logs. Below is the dmesg snapshot from an arm based device with 512MB RAM and 12MB single CMA region. Before this change: Memory: 458840k/458840k available, 65448k reserved, 0K highmem After this change: Memory: 458840k/458840k available, 53160k reserved, 12288k cma-reserved, 0K highmem Signed-off-by: Pintu Kumar <pintu.k@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Vishnu Pratap Singh <vishnu.ps@samsung.com> Acked-by: Michal Nazarewicz <mina86@mina86.com> Cc: Rafael Aquini <aquini@redhat.com> Cc: Jerome Marchand <jmarchan@redhat.com> Cc: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@samsung.com> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2014-12-18hfsplus: fix longname handlingSougata Santra4-29/+79
Longname is not correctly handled by hfsplus driver. If an attempt to create a longname(>255) file/directory is made, it succeeds by creating a file/directory with HFSPLUS_MAX_STRLEN and incorrect catalog key. Thus leaving the volume in an inconsistent state. This patch fixes this issue. Although lookup is always called first to create a negative entry, so just doing a check in lookup would probably fix this issue. I choose to propagate error to other iops as well. Please NOTE: I have factored out hfsplus_cat_build_key_with_cnid from hfsplus_cat_build_key, to avoid unncessary branching. Thanks a lot.

2014-12-17mmu_gather: fix over-eager tlb_flush_mmu_free() callingLinus Torvalds1-3/+3
Dave Hansen reports that commit fb7332a9fedf ("mmu_gather: move minimal range calculations into generic code") caused a performance problem: "tlb_finish_mmu() goes up about 9x in the profiles (~0.4%->3.6%) and tlb_flush_mmu_free() takes about 3.1% of CPU time with the patch applied, but does not show up at all on the commit before" and the reason is that Will moved the test for whether we need to flush from tlb_flush_mmu() into tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly(). But that meant that tlb_flush_mmu_free() basically lost that check. Move it back into tlb_flush_mmu() where it belongs, so that it covers both tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly() _and_ tlb_flush_mmu_free().

2014-12-17ceph: introduce a new inode flag indicating if cached dentries are orderedYan, Zheng3-19/+55
After creating/deleting/renaming file, offsets of sibling dentries may change. So we can not use cached dentries to satisfy readdir. But we can still use the cached dentries to conclude -ENOENT for lookup. This patch introduces a new inode flag indicating if child dentries are ordered. The flag is set at the same time marking a directory complete. After creating/deleting/renaming file, we clear the flag on directory inode. This prevents ceph_readdir() from using cached dentries to satisfy readdir syscall. Signed-off-by: Yan, Zheng <zyan@redhat.com>

2014-12-17microblaze: Fix mmap for cache coherent memoryLars-Peter Clausen3-5/+48
When running in non-cache coherent configuration the memory that was allocated with dma_alloc_coherent() has a custom mapping and so there is no 1-to-1 relationship between the kernel virtual address and the PFN. This means that virt_to_pfn() will not work correctly for those addresses and the default mmap implementation in the form of dma_common_mmap() will map some random, but not the requested, memory area. Fix this by providing a custom mmap implementation that looks up the PFN from the page table rather than using virt_to_pfn.

2014-12-15x86: mm: consolidate VM_FAULT_RETRY handlingLinus Torvalds1-28/+30
The VM_FAULT_RETRY handling was confusing and incorrect for the case of returning to kernel mode. We need to handle the exception table fixup if we return to kernel mode due to a fatal signal - it will basically look to the kernel user mode access like the access failed due to the VM going away from udner it. Which is correct - the process is dying - and avoids the whole "repeat endless kernel page faults" case. Handling the VM_FAULT_RETRY early and in just one place also simplifies the mmap_sem handling, since once we've taken care of VM_FAULT_RETRY we know that we can just drop the lock. The remaining accounting and possible error handling is thread-local and does not need the mmap_sem. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2014-12-15tracing: Add tp_printk cmdline to have tracepoints go to printk()Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)6-0/+76
Add the kernel command line tp_printk option that will have tracepoints that are active sent to printk() as well as to the trace buffer. Passing "tp_printk" will activate this. To turn it off, the sysctl /proc/sys/kernel/tracepoint_printk can have '0' echoed into it. Note, this only works if the cmdline option is used. Echoing 1 into the sysctl file without the cmdline option will have no affect. Note, this is a dangerous option. Having high frequency tracepoints send their data to printk() can possibly cause a live lock. This is another reason why this is only active if the command line option is used.

2014-12-15tracing: Move enabling tracepoints to just after rcu_init()Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)6-8/+40
Enabling tracepoints at boot up can be very useful. The tracepoint can be initialized right after RCU has been. There's no need to wait for the early_initcall() to be called. That's too late for some things that can use tracepoints for debugging. Move the logic to enable tracepoints out of the initcalls and into init/main.c to right after rcu_init(). This also allows trace_printk() to be used early too.

2014-12-14x86/tls: Disallow unusual TLS segmentsAndy Lutomirski1-0/+22
Users have no business installing custom code segments into the GDT, and segments that are not present but are otherwise valid are a historical source of interesting attacks. For completeness, block attempts to set the L bit. (Prior to this patch, the L bit would have been silently dropped.) This is an ABI break. I've checked glibc, musl, and Wine, and none of them look like they'll have any trouble. Note to stable maintainers: this is a hardening patch that fixes no known bugs. Given the possibility of ABI issues, this probably shouldn't be backported quickly. Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Acked-by: H.

2014-12-14x86/tls: Validate TLS entries to protect espfixAndy Lutomirski1-0/+23
Installing a 16-bit RW data segment into the GDT defeats espfix. AFAICT this will not affect glibc, Wine, or dosemu at all. Signed-off-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Acked-by: H.
