67b6c90 mm: slub: work around unneeded lockdep warning The slub code does some setup during early boot in early_kmem_cache_node_alloc() with some local data. There is no possible way that another CPU can see this data, so the slub code doesn't unnecessarily lock it. However, some new lockdep asserts check to make sure that add_partial() _always_ has the list_lock held. Just add the locking, even though it is technically unnecessary.

433a91f mm: sl[uo]b: fix misleading comments On x86, SLUB creates and handles <=8192-byte allocations internally. It passes larger ones up to the allocator. Saying "up to order 2" is, at best, ambiguous. Is that order-1? Or (order-2 bytes)? Make it more clear. SLOB commits a similar sin. It *handles* page-size requests, but the comment says that it passes up "all page size and larger requests". SLOB also swaps around the order of the very-similarly-named KMALLOC_SHIFT_HIGH and KMALLOC_SHIFT_MAX #defines. Make it consistent with the order of the other two allocators.

c2c93e5 arm64: mm: Introduce PTE_WRITE We have the following means for encoding writable or dirty ptes: PTE_DIRTY PTE_RDONLY !pte_dirty && !pte_write 0 1 !pte_dirty && pte_write 0 1 pte_dirty && !pte_write 1 1 pte_dirty && pte_write 1 0 So we can't distinguish between writable clean ptes and read only ptes. This can cause problems with ptes being incorrectly flagged as read only when they are writable but not dirty. This patch introduces a new software bit PTE_WRITE which allows us to correctly identify writable ptes. PTE_RDONLY is now only clear for valid ptes where a page is both writable and dirty.

2def2ef x86, x32: Correct invalid use of user timespec in the kernel The x32 case for the recvmsg() timout handling is broken: asmlinkage long compat_sys_recvmmsg(int fd, struct compat_mmsghdr __user *mmsg, unsigned int vlen, unsigned int flags, struct compat_timespec __user *timeout) { int datagrams; struct timespec ktspec; if (flags & MSG_CMSG_COMPAT) return -EINVAL; if (COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME) return __sys_recvmmsg(fd, (struct mmsghdr __user *)mmsg, vlen, flags | MSG_CMSG_COMPAT, (struct timespec *) timeout); ... The timeout pointer parameter is provided by userland (hence the __user annotation) but for x32 syscalls it's simply cast to a kernel pointer and is passed to __sys_recvmmsg which will eventually directly dereference it for both reading and writing. Other callers to __sys_recvmmsg properly copy from userland to the kernel first. The bug was introduced by commit ee4fa23c4bfc ("compat: Use COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME in net/compat.c") and should affect all kernels since 3.4 (and perhaps vendor kernels if they backported x32 support along with this code). Note that CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI gets enabled at build time and only if CONFIG_X86_X32 is enabled and ld can build x32 executables. Other uses of COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME seem fine.

778c14a mm, oom: base root bonus on current usage A 3% of system memory bonus is sometimes too excessive in comparison to other processes. With commit a63d83f427fb ("oom: badness heuristic rewrite"), the OOM killer tries to avoid killing privileged tasks by subtracting 3% of overall memory (system or cgroup) from their per-task consumption. But as a result, all root tasks that consume less than 3% of overall memory are considered equal, and so it only takes 33+ privileged tasks pushing the system out of memory for the OOM killer to do something stupid and kill dhclient or other root-owned processes. For example, on a 32G machine it can't tell the difference between the 1M agetty and the 10G fork bomb member. The changelog describes this 3% boost as the equivalent to the global overcommit limit being 3% higher for privileged tasks, but this is not the same as discounting 3% of overall memory from _every privileged task individually_ during OOM selection. Replace the 3% of system memory bonus with a 3% of current memory usage bonus. By giving root tasks a bonus that is proportional to their actual size, they remain comparable even when relatively small. In the example above, the OOM killer will discount the 1M agetty's 256 badness points down to 179, and the 10G fork bomb's 262144 points down to 183500 points and make the right choice, instead of discounting both to 0 and killing agetty because it's first in the task list.

24f91eb mm: don't lose the SOFT_DIRTY flag on mprotect The SOFT_DIRTY bit shows that the content of memory was changed after a defined point in the past. mprotect() doesn't change the content of memory, so it must not change the SOFT_DIRTY bit. This bug causes a malfunction: on the first iteration all pages are dumped. On other iterations only pages with the SOFT_DIRTY bit are dumped. So if the SOFT_DIRTY bit is cleared from a page by mistake, the page is not dumped and its content will be restored incorrectly. This patch does nothing with _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY, becase pte_modify() is called only for present pages. Fixes commit 0f8975ec4db2 ("mm: soft-dirty bits for user memory changes tracking").

a032086 mm/slub.c: fix page->_count corruption (again) Commit abca7c496584 ("mm: fix slab->page _count corruption when using slub") notes that we can not _set_ a page->counters directly, except when using a real double-cmpxchg. Doing so can lose updates to ->_count. That is an absolute rule: You may not *set* page->counters except via a cmpxchg. Commit abca7c496584 fixed this for the folks who have the slub cmpxchg_double code turned off at compile time, but it left the bad case alone. It can still be reached, and the same bug triggered in two cases: 1. Turning on slub debugging at runtime, which is available on the distro kernels that I looked at. 2. On 64-bit CPUs with no CMPXCHG16B (some early AMD x86-64 cpus, evidently) There are at least 3 ways we could fix this: 1. Take all of the exising calls to cmpxchg_double_slab() and __cmpxchg_double_slab() and convert them to take an old, new and target 'struct page'. 2. Do (1), but with the newly-introduced 'slub_data'. 3. Do some magic inside the two cmpxchg...slab() functions to pull the counters out of new_counters and only set those fields in page->{inuse,frozen,objects}. I've done (2) as well, but it's a bunch more code. This patch is an attempt at (3). This was the most straightforward and foolproof way that I could think to do this. This would also technically allow us to get rid of the ugly #if defined(CONFIG_HAVE_CMPXCHG_DOUBLE) && \ defined(CONFIG_HAVE_ALIGNED_STRUCT_PAGE) in 'struct page', but leaving it alone has the added benefit that 'counters' stays 'unsigned' instead of 'unsigned long', so all the copies that the slub code does stay a bit smaller.

So, we could do old: read-read: OK read-write: NO write-write: NO Now: read-read: OK read-write: OK write-write: NO The below data proves mixed workload performs well 11 times and there is also enhance on write-write path because current rw-semaphore doesn't support SPIN_ON_OWNER. It's side effect but anyway good thing for us. Write-related tests perform better (from 61% to 1058%) but read path has good/bad(from -2.22% to 1.45%) but they are all marginal within stddev.

9296747 zram: introduce zram->tb_lock Currently, the zram table is protected by zram->lock but it's rather coarse-grained lock and it makes hard for scalibility. Let's use own rwlock instead of depending on zram->lock. This patch adds new locking so obviously, it would make slow but this patch is just prepartion for removing coarse-grained rw_semaphore(ie, zram->lock) which is hurdle about zram scalability. Final patch in this patchset series will remove the lock from read-path and change rw_semaphore with mutex in write path. With bonus, we could drop pending slot free mess in next patch.

Swap subsystem allocates "A" block for new data but request pended for a long time just handled and zram blindly free new data on the "A" block. :( That's why we couldn't remove handle pending free request right before zram-write.

cd67e10 zram: promote zram from staging Zram has lived in staging for a LONG LONG time and have been fixed/improved by many contributors so code is clean and stable now. Of course, there are lots of product using zram in real practice. The major TV companys have used zram as swap since two years ago and recently our production team released android smart phone with zram which is used as swap, too and recently Android Kitkat start to use zram for small memory smart phone. And there was a report Google released their ChromeOS with zram, too and cyanogenmod have been used zram long time ago. And I heard some disto have used zram block device for tmpfs. In addition, I saw many report from many other peoples. For example, Lubuntu start to use it. The benefit of zram is very clear. With my experience, one of the benefit was to remove jitter of video application with backgroud memory pressure. It would be effect of efficient memory usage by compression but more issue is whether swap is there or not in the system. Recent mobile platforms have used JAVA so there are many anonymous pages. But embedded system normally are reluctant to use eMMC or SDCard as swap because there is wear-leveling and latency issues so if we do not use swap, it means we can't reclaim anoymous pages and at last, we could encounter OOM kill. :( Although we have real storage as swap, it was a problem, too. Because it sometime ends up making system very unresponsible caused by slow swap storage performance. Quote from Luigi on Google "Since Chrome OS was mentioned: the main reason why we don't use swap to a disk (rotating or SSD) is because it doesn't degrade gracefully and leads to a bad interactive experience. Generally we prefer to manage RAM at a higher level, by transparently killing and restarting processes. But we noticed that zram is fast enough to be competitive with the latter, and it lets us make more efficient use of the available RAM. " and he announced. http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg57717.html Other uses case is to use zram for block device. Zram is block device so anyone can format the block device and mount on it so some guys on the internet start zram as /var/tmp. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-838198-start-0.html Let's promote zram and enhance/maintain it instead of removing.

bcf1647 zsmalloc: move it under mm This patch moves zsmalloc under mm directory. Before that, description will explain why we have needed custom allocator. Zsmalloc is a new slab-based memory allocator for storing compressed pages. It is designed for low fragmentation and high allocation success rate on large object, but <= PAGE_SIZE allocations. zsmalloc differs from the kernel slab allocator in two primary ways to achieve these design goals. zsmalloc never requires high order page allocations to back slabs, or "size classes" in zsmalloc terms. Instead it allows multiple single-order pages to be stitched together into a "zspage" which backs the slab. This allows for higher allocation success rate under memory pressure. Also, zsmalloc allows objects to span page boundaries within the zspage. This allows for lower fragmentation than could be had with the kernel slab allocator for objects between PAGE_SIZE/2 and PAGE_SIZE. With the kernel slab allocator, if a page compresses to 60% of it original size, the memory savings gained through compression is lost in fragmentation because another object of the same size can't be stored in the leftover space. This ability to span pages results in zsmalloc allocations not being directly addressable by the user. The user is given an non-dereferencable handle in response to an allocation request. That handle must be mapped, using zs_map_object(), which returns a pointer to the mapped region that can be used. The mapping is necessary since the object data may reside in two different noncontigious pages. The zsmalloc fulfills the allocation needs for zram perfectly [sjenning@linux.vnet.ibm.com: borrow Seth's quote] Signed-off-by: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Acked-by: Nitin Gupta <ngupta@vflare.org> Reviewed-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com> Cc: Bob Liu <bob.liu@oracle.com> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Luigi Semenzato <semenzato@google.com> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Seth Jennings <sjenning@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 31 January 2014, 00:56:55 UTC

Many xHCI host controllers can only handle 32-bit addresses, and writing 64-bits at a time causes them to fail. Reading 64-bits at a time may also cause them to return 0xffffffff, so revert this commit as well. Signed-off-by: Sarah Sharp <sarah.a.sharp@linux.intel.com> 30 January 2014, 21:27:49 UTC

5f13ee9 nfs: fix xattr inode op pointers when disabled Chris Mason reported a NULL pointer derefernence in generic_getxattr() that was due to sb->s_xattr being NULL. The reason is that the nfs #ifdef's for ACL support were misplaced, and the nfs3 inode operations had the xattr operation pointers set up, even though xattrs were not actually supported. As a result, the xattr code was being called without the infrastructure having been set up. Move the #ifdef's appropriately.

5fbbc25 x86, boot: Fix word-size assumptions in has_eflag() inline asm Commit dd78b97367bd575918204cc89107c1479d3fc1a7 ("x86, boot: Move CPU flags out of cpucheck") introduced ambiguous inline asm in the has_eflag() function. In 16-bit mode want the instruction to be 'pushfl', but we just say 'pushf' and hope the compiler does what we wanted. When building with 'clang -m16', it won't, because clang doesn't use the horrid '.code16gcc' hack that even 'gcc -m16' uses internally. Say what we mean and don't make the compiler make assumptions. [ hpa: ideally we would be able to use the gcc %zN construct here, but that is broken for 64-bit integers in gcc < 4.5. The code with plain "pushf/popf" is fine for 32- or 64-bit mode, but not for 16-bit mode; in 16-bit mode those are 16-bit instructions in .code16 mode, and 32-bit instructions in .code16gcc mode. ] Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1391079628.26079.82.camel@shinybook.infradead.org Signed-off-by: H.

e17b2f1 xen: swiotlb: handle sizeof(dma_addr_t) != sizeof(phys_addr_t) The use of phys_to_machine and machine_to_phys in the phys<=>bus conversions causes us to lose the top bits of the DMA address if the size of a DMA address is not the same as the size of the phyiscal address. This can happen in practice on ARM where foreign pages can be above 4GB even though the local kernel does not have LPAE page tables enabled (which is totally reasonable if the guest does not itself have >4GB of RAM). In this case the kernel still maps the foreign pages at a phys addr below 4G (as it must) but the resulting DMA address (returned by the grant map operation) is much higher. This is analogous to a hardware device which has its view of RAM mapped up high for some reason. This patch makes I/O to foreign pages (specifically blkif) work on 32-bit ARM systems with more than 4GB of RAM.

5259a06 target: Fix percpu_ref_put race in transport_lun_remove_cmd This patch fixes a percpu_ref_put race for se_lun->lun_ref in transport_lun_remove_cmd() where ->lun_ref could end up being put more than once per command via different target completion and fabric release contexts. It adds a cmpxchg() for se_cmd->lun_ref_active to ensure that percpu_ref_put() is only ever called once per se_cmd. This bug was manifesting itself as a LUN shutdown regression bug in >= v3.13 code, where percpu_ref_kill() would end up hanging indefinately due to the incorrect percpu_ref count.

This causes an error in the network stack when attempting to bind to the same address/port. This patch sets NP_THREAD_ACTIVE before the np is placed on g_np_list, so even if the thread hasn't run yet, iscsit_get_np will return the existing np. Also, convert np_lock -> np_mutex + hold across adding new net portal to g_np_list to prevent a race where two threads may attempt to create the same network portal, resulting in one of them failing.

59f2e7d dma-debug: fix overlap detection Commit 0abdd7a81b7e ("dma-debug: introduce debug_dma_assert_idle()") was reworked to expand the overlap counter to the full range expressable by 3 tag bits, but it has a thinko in treating the overlap counter as a pure reference count for the entry. Instead of deleting when the reference-count drops to zero, we need to delete when the overlap-count drops below zero. Also, when detecting overflow we can just test the overlap-count > MAX rather than applying special meaning to 0. Regression report available here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=139073373932386&w=2 This patch, now tested on the original net_dma case, sees the expected handful of reports before the eventual data corruption occurs.

58d5640 mm/readahead.c: fix do_readahead() for no readpage(s) Commit 63d0f0a3c7e1 ("mm/readahead.c:do_readhead(): don't check for ->readpage") unintentionally made do_readahead return 0 for all valid files regardless of whether readahead was supported, rather than the expected -EINVAL. This gets forwarded on to userspace, and results in sys_readahead appearing to succeed in cases that don't make sense (e.g. when called on pipes or sockets). This issue is detected by the LTP readahead01 testcase. As the exact return value of force_page_cache_readahead is currently never used, we can simplify it to return only 0 or -EINVAL (when readpage or readpages is missing). With that in place we can simply forward on the return value of force_page_cache_readahead in do_readahead. This patch performs said change, restoring the expected semantics.

But, most of the ones in the slub code are for _temporary_ 'struct page's which are declared on the stack and likely have lots of gunk in them. Dumping their contents out will just confuse folks looking at bad_page() output. Plus, if we try to page_to_pfn() on them or soemthing, we'll probably oops anyway. Turn them back in to VM_BUG_ON()s.

ba3253c slab: fix wrong retval on kmem_cache_create_memcg error path On kmem_cache_create_memcg() error path we set 'err', but leave 's' (the new cache ptr) undefined. The latter can be NULL if we could not allocate the cache, or pointing to a freed area if we failed somewhere later while trying to initialize it. Initially we checked 'err' immediately before exiting the function and returned NULL if it was set ignoring the value of 's': out_unlock: ... if (err) { /* report error */ return NULL; } return s; Recently this check was, in fact, broken by commit f717eb3abb5e ("slab: do not panic if we fail to create memcg cache"), which turned it to: out_unlock: ... if (err && !memcg) { /* report error */ return NULL; } return s; As a result, if we are failing creating a cache for a memcg, we will skip the check and return 's' that can contain crap. Obviously, commit f717eb3abb5e intended not to return crap on error allocating a cache for a memcg, but only to remove the error reporting in this case, so the check should look like this: out_unlock: ... if (err) { if (!memcg) return NULL; /* report error */ return NULL; } return s; [rientjes@google.com: despaghettification] [vdavydov@parallels.com: patch monkeying] Signed-off-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Signed-off-by: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Reported-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com> Acked-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 30 January 2014, 00:22:40 UTC
49382d9 s390/compat: change parameter types from unsigned long to compat_ulong_t Change parameter types of s390's compat ipc syscall from unsigned long to compat_ulong_t to enforce zero extension of these parameters. This is not really a bug, since s390_ipc compat syscall is only a wrapper to the generic compat_sys_ipc() syscall, which performs correct zero and sign extension.

dfd948e fs/compat: fix parameter handling for compat readv/writev syscalls We got a report that the pwritev syscall does not work correctly in compat mode on s390. It turned out that with commit 72ec35163f9f ("switch compat readv/writev variants to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE") we lost the zero extension of a couple of syscall parameters because the some parameter types haven't been converted from unsigned long to compat_ulong_t. This is needed for architectures where the ABI requires that the caller of a function performed zero and/or sign extension to 64 bit of all parameters.

c297663 mm: numa: initialise numa balancing after jump label initialisation The command line parsing takes place before jump labels are initialised which generates a warning if numa_balancing= is specified and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL is set. On older kernels before commit c4b2c0c5f647 ("static_key: WARN on usage before jump_label_init was called") the kernel would have crashed. This patch enables automatic numa balancing later in the initialisation process if numa_balancing= is specified.

a1c3bfb mm/page-writeback.c: do not count anon pages as dirtyable memory The VM is currently heavily tuned to avoid swapping. Whether that is good or bad is a separate discussion, but as long as the VM won't swap to make room for dirty cache, we can not consider anonymous pages when calculating the amount of dirtyable memory, the baseline to which dirty_background_ratio and dirty_ratio are applied. A simple workload that occupies a significant size (40+%, depending on memory layout, storage speeds etc.) of memory with anon/tmpfs pages and uses the remainder for a streaming writer demonstrates this problem. In that case, the actual cache pages are a small fraction of what is considered dirtyable overall, which results in an relatively large portion of the cache pages to be dirtied. As kswapd starts rotating these, random tasks enter direct reclaim and stall on IO. Only consider free pages and file pages dirtyable.
