This introduces a "register private expedited" membarrier command which
allows eventual removal of important memory barrier constraints on the
scheduler fast-paths. It changes how the "private expedited" membarrier
command (new to 4.14) is used from user-space.
This new command allows processes to register their intent to use the
private expedited command. This affects how the expedited private
command introduced in 4.14-rc is meant to be used, and should be merged
before 4.14 final.
Processes are now required to register before using
MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED, otherwise that command returns EPERM.
This fixes a problem that arose when designing requested extensions to
sys_membarrier() to allow JITs to efficiently flush old code from
instruction caches. Several potential algorithms are much less painful
if the user register intent to use this functionality early on, for
example, before the process spawns the second thread. Registering at
this time removes the need to interrupt each and every thread in that
process at the first expedited sys_membarrier() system call.

As discussed on the debian-hppa list, double-wordcompare and exchange
operations fail on 32-bit kernels. Looking at the code, I realized that
the ",ma" completer does the wrong thing in the "ldw,ma 4(%r26), %r29"
instruction. This increments %r26 and causes the following store to
write to the wrong location.

The pointer fs_ns is assigned from inode->i_ib->s_user_ns before
a null pointer check on inode, hence if inode is actually null we
will get a null pointer dereference on this assignment. Fix this

inode.

The commit 99b5c5bb9a54 ("ALSA: hda - Remove the use of set_fs()")
converted the get_kctl_0dB_offset() call for killing set_fs() usage in
HD-audio codec code. The conversion assumed that the TLV callback
used in HD-audio code is only snd_hda_mixer_amp() and applies the TLV
calculation locally.
Although this assumption is correct, and all slave kctls are actually
with that callback, the current code is still utterly buggy; it
doesn't hit this condition and falls back to the next check. It's
because the function gets called after adding slave kctls to vmaster.
By assigning a slave kctl, the slave kctl object is faked inside
vmaster code, and the whole kctl ops are overridden. Thus the
callback op points to a different value from what we've assumed.
More badly, as reported by the KERNEXEC and UDEREF features of PaX,
the code flow turns into the unexpected pitfall. The next fallback
check is SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_TLV_READ access bit, and this always
hits for each kctl with TLV. Then it evaluates the callback function
pointer wrongly as if it were a TLV array. Although currently its
side-effect is fairly limited, this incorrect reference may lead to an
unpleasant result.
For addressing the regression, this patch introduces a new helper to
vmaster code, snd_ctl_apply_vmaster_slaves(). This works similarly
like the existing map_slaves() in hda_codec.c: it loops over the slave
list of the given master, and applies the given function to each
slave. Then the initializer function receives the right kctl object
and we can compare the correct pointer instead of the faked one.
Also, for catching the similar breakage in future, give an error
message when the unexpected TLV callback is found and bail out
immediately.

While converting the error messages to the standard macros in the
commit 4e76a8833fac ("ALSA: hda - Replace with standard printk"), a
superfluous '-' slipped in the code mistakenly. Its influence is
almost negligible, merely shows a dB value as negative integer instead
of positive integer (or vice versa) in the rare error message.
So let's kill this embarrassing byte to show more correct value.

these can change concurrently if key_validate() is called without the

variable is referenced multiple times. For example, key->expiry was
referenced in both 'if (key->expiry)' and in 'if (now.tv_sec >=
key->expiry)', making it theoretically possible to see a spurious
EKEYEXPIRED while the expiration time was being removed, i.e. set to 0.

Currently, when passed a key that already exists, add_key() will call the
key's ->update() method if such exists. But this is heavily broken in the
case where the key is uninstantiated because it doesn't call
__key_instantiate_and_link(). Consequently, it doesn't do most of the
things that are supposed to happen when the key is instantiated, such as
setting the instantiation state, clearing KEY_FLAG_USER_CONSTRUCT and
awakening tasks waiting on it, and incrementing key->user->nikeys.
It also never takes key_construction_mutex, which means that
->instantiate() can run concurrently with ->update() on the same key. In
the case of the "user" and "logon" key types this causes a memory leak, at
best. Maybe even worse, the ->update() methods of the "encrypted" and
"trusted" key types actually just dereference a NULL pointer when passed an
uninstantiated key.
Change key_create_or_update() to wait interruptibly for the key to finish
construction before continuing.
This patch only affects *uninstantiated* keys. For now we still allow a
negatively instantiated key to be updated (thereby positively
instantiating it), although that's broken too (the next patch fixes it)
and I'm not sure that anyone actually uses that functionality either.
Here is a simple reproducer for the bug using the "encrypted" key type
(requires CONFIG_ENCRYPTED_KEYS=y), though as noted above the bug
pertained to more than just the "encrypted" key type:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <keyutils.h>
int main(void)
{
int ringid = keyctl_join_session_keyring(NULL);
if (fork()) {
for (;;) {
const char payload[] = "update user:foo 32";
usleep(rand() % 10000);
add_key("encrypted", "desc", payload, sizeof(payload), ringid);
keyctl_clear(ringid);
}
} else {
for (;;)
request_key("encrypted", "desc", "callout_info", ringid);
}
}
It causes:

Consolidate KEY_FLAG_INSTANTIATED, KEY_FLAG_NEGATIVE and the rejection
error into one field such that:
(1) The instantiation state can be modified/read atomically.
(2) The error can be accessed atomically with the state.
(3) The error isn't stored unioned with the payload pointers.
This deals with the problem that the state is spread over three different
objects (two bits and a separate variable) and reading or updating them
atomically isn't practical, given that not only can uninstantiated keys
change into instantiated or rejected keys, but rejected keys can also turn
into instantiated keys - and someone accessing the key might not be using
any locking.
The main side effect of this problem is that what was held in the payload
may change, depending on the state. For instance, you might observe the
key to be in the rejected state. You then read the cached error, but if
the key semaphore wasn't locked, the key might've become instantiated
between the two reads - and you might now have something in hand that isn't
actually an error code.
The state is now KEY_IS_UNINSTANTIATED, KEY_IS_POSITIVE or a negative error
code if the key is negatively instantiated. The key_is_instantiated()
function is replaced with key_is_positive() to avoid confusion as negative
keys are also 'instantiated'.
Additionally, barriering is included:
(1) Order payload-set before state-set during instantiation.
(2) Order state-read before payload-read when using the key.
Further separate barriering is necessary if RCU is being used to access the
payload content after reading the payload pointers.

Enabling both the TRACE_EVENT_FN() and DEFINE_EVENT_FN() example trace
events caused the foo_bar_reg to be called twice, creating the test thread

multiple times, leaving a thread existing when the module is unloaded,
causing an oops.

Currently we try to defer completion of async DIO to the process context
in case there are any mapped pages associated with the inode so that we
can invalidate the pages when the IO completes. However the check is racy
and the pages can be mapped afterwards. If this happens we might end up
calling invalidate_inode_pages2_range() in dio_complete() in interrupt
context which could sleep. This can be reproduced by generic/451.
Fix this by passing the information whether we can or can't invalidate
to the dio_complete(). Thanks Eryu Guan for reporting this and Jan Kara

The writeback rework in commit fbcc02561359 ("xfs: Introduce
writeback context for writepages") introduced a subtle change in
behavior with regard to the block mapping used across the
->writepages() sequence. The previous xfs_cluster_write() code would
only flush pages up to EOF at the time of the writepage, thus
ensuring that any pages due to file-extending writes would be
handled on a separate cycle and with a new, updated block mapping.
The updated code establishes a block mapping in xfs_writepage_map()
that could extend beyond EOF if the file has post-eof preallocation.
Because we now use the generic writeback infrastructure and pass the
cached mapping to each writepage call, there is no implicit EOF
limit in place. If eofblocks trimming occurs during ->writepages(),
any post-eof portion of the cached mapping becomes invalid. The
eofblocks code has no means to serialize against writeback because
there are no pages associated with post-eof blocks. Therefore if an
eofblocks trim occurs and is followed by a file-extending buffered
write, not only has the mapping become invalid, but we could end up
writing a page to disk based on the invalid mapping.
Consider the following sequence of events:
- A buffered write creates a delalloc extent and post-eof
speculative preallocation.
- Writeback starts and on the first writepage cycle, the delalloc
extent is converted to real blocks (including the post-eof blocks)
and the mapping is cached.
- The file is closed and xfs_release() trims post-eof blocks. The
cached writeback mapping is now invalid.
- Another buffered write appends the file with a delalloc extent.
- The concurrent writeback cycle picks up the just written page
because the writeback range end is LLONG_MAX. xfs_writepage_map()
attributes it to the (now invalid) cached mapping and writes the
data to an incorrect location on disk (and where the file offset is
still backed by a delalloc extent).
This problem is reproduced by xfstests test generic/464, which
triggers racing writes, appends, open/closes and writeback requests.
To address this problem, trim the mapping used during writeback to
within EOF when the mapping is validated. This ensures the mapping
is revalidated for any pages encountered beyond EOF as of the time
the current mapping was cached or last validated.

Commit 332391a9935d ("fs: Fix page cache inconsistency when mixing
buffered and AIO DIO") moved page cache invalidation from
iomap_dio_rw() to iomap_dio_complete() for iomap based direct write
path, but before the dio->end_io() call, and it re-introdued the bug
fixed by commit c771c14baa33 ("iomap: invalidate page caches should
be after iomap_dio_complete() in direct write").
I found this because fstests generic/418 started failing on XFS with
v4.14-rc3 kernel, which is the regression test for this specific
bug.
So similarly, fix it by moving dio->end_io() (which does the
unwritten extent conversion) before page cache invalidation, to make
sure next buffer read reads the final real allocations not unwritten
extents. I also add some comments about why should end_io() go first
in case we get it wrong again in the future.
Note that, there's no such problem in the non-iomap based direct
write path, because we didn't remove the page cache invalidation
after the ->direct_IO() in generic_file_direct_write() call, but I
decided to fix dio_complete() too so we don't leave a landmine
there, also be consistent with iomap_dio_complete().

Recently we've had warnings arise from the vm handing us pages
without bufferheads attached to them. This should not ever occur
in XFS, but we don't defend against it properly if it does. The only
place where we remove bufferheads from a page is in
xfs_vm_releasepage(), but we can't tell the difference here between
"page is dirty so don't release" and "page is dirty but is being
invalidated so release it".
In some places that are invalidating pages ask for pages to be
released and follow up afterward calling ->releasepage by checking
whether the page was dirty and then aborting the invalidation. This
is a possible vector for releasing buffers from a page but then
leaving it in the mapping, so we really do need to avoid dirty pages
in xfs_vm_releasepage().
To differentiate between invalidated pages and normal pages, we need
to clear the page dirty flag when invalidating the pages. This can
be done through xfs_vm_invalidatepage(), and will result
xfs_vm_releasepage() seeing the page as clean which matches the
bufferhead state on the page after calling block_invalidatepage().
Hence we can re-add the page dirty check in xfs_vm_releasepage to
catch the case where we might be releasing a page that is actually
dirty and so should not have the bufferheads on it removed. This
will remove one possible vector of "dirty page with no bufferheads"
and so help narrow down the search for the root cause of that
problem.

On CPUs like AMD's Geode, for example, we shouldn't even try to load
microcode because they do not support the modern microcode loading
interface.
However, we do the family check *after* the other checks whether the
loader has been disabled on the command line or whether we're running in
a guest.
So move the family checks first in order to exit early if we're being
loaded on an unsupported family.

Since commit:
94b1b03b519b ("x86/mm: Rework lazy TLB mode and TLB freshness tracking")
x86's lazy TLB mode has been all the way lazy: when running a kernel thread
(including the idle thread), the kernel keeps using the last user mm's
page tables without attempting to maintain user TLB coherence at all.
From a pure semantic perspective, this is fine -- kernel threads won't
attempt to access user pages, so having stale TLB entries doesn't matter.
Unfortunately, I forgot about a subtlety. By skipping TLB flushes,
we also allow any paging-structure caches that may exist on the CPU
to become incoherent. This means that we can have a
paging-structure cache entry that references a freed page table, and
the CPU is within its rights to do a speculative page walk starting
at the freed page table.
I can imagine this causing two different problems:
- A speculative page walk starting from a bogus page table could read
IO addresses. I haven't seen any reports of this causing problems.
- A speculative page walk that involves a bogus page table can install
garbage in the TLB. Such garbage would always be at a user VA, but
some AMD CPUs have logic that triggers a machine check when it notices
these bogus entries. I've seen a couple reports of this.
Boris further explains the failure mode:
> It is actually more of an optimization which assumes that paging-structure
> entries are in WB DRAM:
>
> "TlbCacheDis: cacheable memory disable. Read-write. 0=Enables
> performance optimization that assumes PML4, PDP, PDE, and PTE entries

> protocol errors. 1=Disables performance optimization and allows PML4,

To fix this, reinstate TLB coherence in lazy mode. With this patch
applied, we do it in one of two ways:
- If we have PCID, we simply switch back to init_mm's page tables
when we enter a kernel thread -- this seems to be quite cheap
except for the cost of serializing the CPU.
- If we don't have PCID, then we set a flag and switch to init_mm
the first time we would otherwise need to flush the TLB.
The /sys/kernel/debug/x86/tlb_use_lazy_mode debug switch can be changed
to override the default mode for benchmarking.
In theory, we could optimize this better by only flushing the TLB in
lazy CPUs when a page table is freed. Doing that would require
auditing the mm code to make sure that all page table freeing goes
through tlb_remove_page() as well as reworking some data structures
to implement the improved flush logic.

When the VMA based swap readahead was introduced, a new knob
/sys/kernel/mm/swap/vma_ra_max_order
was added as the max window of VMA swap readahead. This is to make it
possible to use different max window for VMA based readahead and
original physical readahead. But Minchan Kim pointed out that this will
cause a regression because setting page-cluster sysctl to zero cannot
disable swap readahead with the change.
To fix the regression, the page-cluster sysctl is used as the max window
of both the VMA based swap readahead and original physical swap
readahead. If more fine grained control is needed in the future, more
knobs can be added as the subordinate knobs of the page-cluster sysctl.
The vma_ra_max_order knob is deleted. Because the knob was introduced
in v4.14-rc1, and this patch is targeting being merged before v4.14
releasing, there should be no existing users of this newly added ABI.

Loading the pmd without holding the pmd_lock exposes us to races with
concurrent updaters of the page tables but, worse still, it also allows
the compiler to cache the pmd value in a register and reuse it later on,
even if we've performed a READ_ONCE in between and seen a more recent
value.
In the case of page_vma_mapped_walk, this leads to the following crash
when the pmd loaded for the initial pmd_trans_huge check is all zeroes
and a subsequent valid table entry is loaded by check_pmd. We then
proceed into map_pte, but the compiler re-uses the zero entry inside
pte_offset_map, resulting in a junk pointer being installed in
pvmw->pte:
PC is at check_pte+0x20/0x170
LR is at page_vma_mapped_walk+0x2e0/0x540

This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that READ_ONCE is used before
the initial checks on the pmd, and this value is subsequently used when
checking whether or not the pmd is present. pmd_check is removed and
the pmd_present check is inlined directly.

When using FAT on a block device which supports rw_page, we can hit
BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page)) in try_to_free_buffers(). This is because we
call clean_buffers() after unlocking the page we've written. Introduce
a new clean_page_buffers() which cleans all buffers associated with a
page and call it from within bdev_write_page().

We have seen NULL-pointer dereference crashes in tty->disc_data when the
N_TTY fallback driver failed to open during hangup. The immediate cause
of this open to fail has been addressed in the preceding patch to
vmalloc(), but this code could be more robust.
As Alan pointed out in commit 8a8dabf2dd68 ("tty: handle the case where
we cannot restore a line discipline"), the N_TTY driver, historically
the safe fallback that could never fail, can indeed fail, but the
surrounding code is not prepared to handle this. To avoid crashes he
added a new N_NULL driver to take N_TTY's place as the last resort.
Hook that fallback up to the hangup path. Update tty_ldisc_reinit() to
reflect the reality that n_tty_open can indeed fail.

This reverts commits 5d17a73a2ebe ("vmalloc: back off when the current
task is killed") and 171012f56127 ("mm: don't warn when vmalloc() fails
due to a fatal signal").
Commit 5d17a73a2ebe ("vmalloc: back off when the current task is
killed") made all vmalloc allocations from a signal-killed task fail.
We have seen crashes in the tty driver from this, where a killed task
exiting tries to switch back to N_TTY, fails n_tty_open because of the
vmalloc failing, and later crashes when dereferencing tty->disc_data.
Arguably, relying on a vmalloc() call to succeed in order to properly
exit a task is not the most robust way of doing things. There will be a
follow-up patch to the tty code to fall back to the N_NULL ldisc.
But the justification to make that vmalloc() call fail like this isn't
convincing, either. The patch mentions an OOM victim exhausting the
memory reserves and thus deadlocking the machine. But the OOM killer is
only one, improbable source of fatal signals. It doesn't make sense to
fail allocations preemptively with plenty of memory in most cases.
The patch doesn't mention real-life instances where vmalloc sites would
exhaust memory, which makes it sound more like a theoretical issue to
begin with. But just in case, the OOM access to memory reserves has
been restricted on the allocator side in cd04ae1e2dc8 ("mm, oom: do not
rely on TIF_MEMDIE for memory reserves access"), which should take care
of any theoretical concerns on that front.
Revert this patch, and the follow-up that suppresses the allocation
warnings when we fail the allocations due to a signal.

cma_alloc() unconditionally prints an INFO message when the CMA
allocation fails. Make this message conditional on the non-presence of
__GFP_NOWARN in gfp_mask.
This patch aims at removing INFO messages that are displayed when the
VC4 driver tries to allocate buffer objects. From the driver
perspective an allocation failure is acceptable, and the driver can
possibly do something to make following allocation succeed (like
flushing the VC4 internal cache).

gcc on aarch64 may emit synbols of type 'n' if the kernel is built with
'-frecord-gcc-switches'. In most cases, those symbols are reported with
nm as
000000000000000e n $d
and with objdump as
0000000000000000 l d .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 .GCC.command.line
000000000000000e l .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 $d
Those symbols are detected in is_arm_mapping_symbol() and ignored.
However, if "--prefix-symbols=<prefix>" is configured as well, the
situation is different. For example, in efi/libstub, arm64 images are
built with
'--prefix-alloc-sections=.init --prefix-symbols=__efistub_'.
In combination with '-frecord-gcc-switches', the symbols are now reported
by nm as:
000000000000000e n __efistub_$d
and by objdump as:
0000000000000000 l d .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 .GCC.command.line
000000000000000e l .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 __efistub_$d
Those symbols are no longer ignored and included in the base address
calculation. This results in a base address of 000000000000000e, which
in turn causes kallsyms to abort with
kallsyms failure:
relative symbol value 0xffffff900800a000 out of range in relative mode
The problem is seen in little endian arm64 builds with CONFIG_EFI
enabled and with '-frecord-gcc-switches' set in KCFLAGS.
Explicitly ignore symbols of type 'n' since those are clearly debug
symbols.

I was stress testing some backports and with high load, after some time,
the latest version of the selftest showed some false positive in
connection with the uffdio_copy_retry. This seems to fix it while still
exercising -EEXIST in the background transfer once in a while.
The fork child will quit after the last UFFDIO_COPY is run, so a
repeated UFFDIO_COPY may not return -EEXIST. This change restricts the
-EEXIST stress to the background transfer where the memory can't go away
from under it.
Also updated uffdio_zeropage, so the interface is consistent.

When I execute numactl -H (which reads /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/cpumap
and displays cpumask_of_node for each node), I get different result
on X86 and arm64. For each numa node, the former only displayed online
CPUs, and the latter displayed all possible CPUs. Unfortunately, both
Linux documentation and numactl manual have not described it clear.
I sent a mail to ask for help, and Michal Hocko replied that he
preferred to print online cpus because it doesn't really make much sense
to bind anything on offline nodes.
Will said:
"I suspect the vast majority (if not all) code that reads this file was
developed for x86, so having the same behaviour for arm64 sounds like
something we should do ASAP before people try to special case with
things like #ifdef __aarch64__. I'd rather have this in 4.14 if
possible."

Commit 3a321d2a3dde ("mm: change the call sites of numa statistics
items") separated NUMA counters from zone counters, but the
NUMA_INTERLEAVE_HIT call site wasn't updated to use the new interface.
So alloc_page_interleave() actually increments NR_ZONE_INACTIVE_FILE
instead of NUMA_INTERLEAVE_HIT.
Fix this by using __inc_numa_state() interface to increment
NUMA_INTERLEAVE_HIT.

The pci-rcar driver is enabled for compile tests, and this has shown that
the driver cannot build without CONFIG_OF, following the inclusion of
commit f8f2fe7355fb ("PCI: rcar: Use new OF interrupt mapping when possible"):
drivers/pci/host/pcie-rcar.c: In function 'pci_dma_range_parser_init':
drivers/pci/host/pcie-rcar.c:1039:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'of_n_addr_cells' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
parser->pna = of_n_addr_cells(node);
^
As pointed out by Ben Dooks and Geert Uytterhoeven, this is actually
supposed to build fine, which we can achieve if we make the declaration
of of_irq_parse_and_map_pci conditional on CONFIG_OF and provide an
empty inline function otherwise, as we do for a lot of other of
interfaces.
This lets us build the rcar_pci driver again without CONFIG_OF for build
testing. All platforms using this driver select OF, so this doesn't
change anything for the users.
