fc2af6c Fernando Luis Vázquez Cao 13 June 2011, 15:06:58 UTC IGMP snooping: set mrouters_only flag for IPv6 traffic properly Upon reception of a MGM report packet the kernel sets the mrouters_only flag in a skb that is a clone of the original skb, which means that the bridge loses track of MGM packets (cb buffers are tied to a specific skb and not shared) and it ends up forwading join requests to the bridge interface. This can cause unexpected membership timeouts and intermitent/permanent loss of connectivity as described in RFC 4541 [2.1.1. IGMP Forwarding Rules]: A snooping switch should forward IGMP Membership Reports only to those ports where multicast routers are attached. [...] Sending membership reports to other hosts can result, for IGMPv1 and IGMPv2, in unintentionally preventing a host from joining a specific multicast group.

d402612 Marius B. Kotsbak 12 June 2011, 02:35:02 UTC net/usb: Add Samsung Kalmia driver for Samsung GT-B3730 Introducing driver for the network port of Samsung Kalmia based USB LTE modems. It has also an ACM interface that previous patches associates with the "option" module. To access those interfaces, the modem must first be switched from modem mode using a tool like usb_modeswitch. As the proprietary protocol has been discovered by watching the MS Windows driver behavior, there might be errors in the protocol handling, but stable and fast connection has been established for hours with Norwegian operator NetCom that distributes this modem with their LTE/4G subscription. More and updated information about how to use this driver is available here: http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/bb/viewtopic.php?t=465 https://github.com/mkotsbak/Samsung-GT-B3730-linux-driver Signed-off-by: Marius B.

a9d3d20 Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 16 June 2011, 19:36:39 UTC [CPUFREQ] powernow-k8: Don't notify of successful transition if we failed (vid case). Before this patch if we failed the vid transition would still try to submit the "new" frequencies to cpufreq. That is incorrect - also we could submit a non-existing frequency value which would cause cpufreq to crash. The ultimate fix is in cpufreq to deal with incorrect values, but this patch improves the error recovery in the AMD powernowk8 driver. The failure that was reported was as follows: powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3700+ (1 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00) powernow-k8: fid 0x2 (1000 MHz), vid 0x12 powernow-k8: fid 0xa (1800 MHz), vid 0xa powernow-k8: fid 0xc (2000 MHz), vid 0x8 powernow-k8: fid 0xe (2200 MHz), vid 0x8 Marking TSC unstable due to cpufreq changes powernow-k8: fid trans failed, fid 0x2, curr 0x0 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff880807e07b78 IP: [<ffffffff81479163>] cpufreq_stats_update+0x46/0x5b ... And transition fails and data->currfid ends up with 0. Since the machine does not support 800Mhz value when the calculation is done ('find_khz_freq_from_fid(data->currfid);') it reports the new frequency as 800000 which is bogus. This patch fixes the issue during target setting. The patch however does not fix the issue in 'powernowk8_cpu_init' where the pol->cur can also be set with the 800000 value: pol->cur = find_khz_freq_from_fid(data->currfid); dprintk("policy current frequency %d kHz\n", pol->cur); /* min/max the cpu is capable of */ if (cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo(pol, data->powernow_table)) { The fix for that looks to update cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo to check pol->cur.... but that would cause an regression in how the acpi-cpufreq driver works (it sets cpu->cur after calling cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo). Instead the fix will be to let cpufreq gracefully handle bogus data (another patch).

46a310b Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 16 June 2011, 19:36:38 UTC [CPUFREQ] Don't set stat->last_index to -1 if the pol->cur has incorrect value. If the driver submitted an non-existing pol>cur value (say it used the default initialized value of zero), when the cpufreq stats tries to setup its initial values it incorrectly sets stat->last_index to -1 (or 0xfffff...). And cpufreq_stats_update tries to update at that index location and fails. This can be caused by: stat->last_index = freq_table_get_index(stat, policy->cur); not finding the appropiate frequency in the table (b/c the policy->cur is wrong) and we end up crashing. The fix however is concentrated in the 'cpufreq_stats_update' as the last_index (and old_index) are updated there. Which means it can reset the last_index to -1 again and on the next iteration cause a crash. Without this patch, the following crash is observed: powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3700+ (1 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00) powernow-k8: fid 0x2 (1000 MHz), vid 0x12 powernow-k8: fid 0xa (1800 MHz), vid 0xa powernow-k8: fid 0xc (2000 MHz), vid 0x8 powernow-k8: fid 0xe (2200 MHz), vid 0x8 Marking TSC unstable due to cpufreq changes powernow-k8: fid trans failed, fid 0x2, curr 0x0 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff880807e07b78 IP: [<ffffffff81479163>] cpufreq_stats_update+0x46/0x5b .. snip..

acd049c Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 16 June 2011, 17:07:19 UTC xen/setup: Fix for incorrect xen_extra_mem_start. The earlier attempts (24bdb0b62cc82120924762ae6bc85afc8c3f2b26) at fixing this problem caused other problems to surface (PV guests with no PCI passthrough would have SWIOTLB turned on - which meant 64MB of precious contingous DMA32 memory being eaten up per guest). The problem was: "on xen we add an extra memory region at the end of the e820, and on this particular machine this extra memory region would start below 4g and cross over the 4g boundary: [0xfee01000-0x192655000) Unfortunately e820_end_of_low_ram_pfn does not expect an e820 layout like that so it returns 4g, therefore initial_memory_mapping will map [0 - 0x100000000), that is a memory range that includes some reserved memory regions." The memory range was the IOAPIC regions, and with the 1-1 mapping turned on, it would map them as RAM, not as MMIO regions. This caused the hypervisor to complain. Fortunately this is experienced only under the initial domain so we guard for it.

b519951 Thomas Gleixner 16 June 2011, 14:22:08 UTC clocksource: Make watchdog robust vs. interruption The clocksource watchdog code is interruptible and it has been observed that this can trigger false positives which disable the TSC. The reason is that an interrupt storm or a long running interrupt handler between the read of the watchdog source and the read of the TSC brings the two far enough apart that the delta is larger than the unstable treshold. Move both reads into a short interrupt disabled region to avoid that.

The only thing this really requires is flushing the data device first both in fsync and log commits. A side effect is that we also have to remove the barrier write test during mount, which has been superflous since the new FLUSH+FUA code anyway.

The important operations to the page were: mapwrite to a hole partial write to the page read - found the page zeroed from the end of the normal write The culprit seems to be that if get_block() fails in __block_write_begin() (e.g. transient ENOSPC in ext3), the function does ClearPageUptodate(page). Thus when we retry the write, the logic in __block_write_begin() thinks zeroing of the page is needed and overwrites old data. In fact, I don't see why we should ever need to zero the uptodate bit here - either the page was uptodate when we entered __block_write_begin() and it should stay so when we leave it, or it was not uptodate and noone had right to set it uptodate during __block_write_begin() so it remains !uptodate when we leave as well. So just remove clearing of the bit. Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> 16 June 2011, 15:44:46 UTC

8aef188 Al Viro 16 June 2011, 14:10:06 UTC VFS: Fix vfsmount overput on simultaneous automount [Kudos to dhowells for tracking that crap down] If two processes attempt to cause automounting on the same mountpoint at the same time, the vfsmount holding the mountpoint will be left with one too few references on it, causing a BUG when the kernel tries to clean up. The problem is that lock_mount() drops the caller's reference to the mountpoint's vfsmount in the case where it finds something already mounted on the mountpoint as it transits to the mounted filesystem and replaces path->mnt with the new mountpoint vfsmount. During a pathwalk, however, we don't take a reference on the vfsmount if it is the same as the one in the nameidata struct, but do_add_mount() doesn't know this. The fix is to make sure we have a ref on the vfsmount of the mountpoint before calling do_add_mount(). However, if lock_mount() doesn't transit, we're then left with an extra ref on the mountpoint vfsmount which needs releasing. We can handle that in follow_managed() by not making assumptions about what we can and what we cannot get from lookup_mnt() as the current code does. The callers of follow_managed() expect that reference to path->mnt will be grabbed iff path->mnt has been changed. follow_managed() and follow_automount() keep track of whether such reference has been grabbed and assume that it'll happen in those and only those cases that'll have us return with changed path->mnt. That assumption is almost correct - it breaks in case of racing automounts and in even harder to hit race between following a mountpoint and a couple of mount --move. The thing is, we don't need to make that assumption at all - after the end of loop in follow_manage() we can check if path->mnt has ended up unchanged and do mntput() if needed. The BUG can be reproduced with the following test program: #include <stdio.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/wait.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { int pid, ws; struct stat buf; pid = fork(); stat(argv[1], &buf); if (pid > 0) wait(&ws); return 0; } and the following procedure: (1) Mount an NFS volume that on the server has something else mounted on a subdirectory. For instance, I can mount / from my server: mount warthog:/ /mnt -t nfs4 -r On the server /data has another filesystem mounted on it, so NFS will see a change in FSID as it walks down the path, and will mark /mnt/data as being a mountpoint. This will cause the automount code to be triggered. !!! Do not look inside the mounted fs at this point !!! (2) Run the above program on a file within the submount to generate two simultaneous automount requests: /tmp/forkstat /mnt/data/testfile (3) Unmount the automounted submount: umount /mnt/data (4) Unmount the original mount: umount /mnt At this point the kernel should throw a BUG with something like the following: BUG: Dentry ffff880032e3c5c0{i=2,n=} still in use (1) [unmount of nfs4 0:12] Note that the bug appears on the root dentry of the original mount, not the mountpoint and not the submount because sys_umount() hasn't got to its final mntput_no_expire() yet, but this isn't so obvious from the call trace: [<ffffffff8117cd82>] shrink_dcache_for_umount+0x69/0x82 [<ffffffff8116160e>] generic_shutdown_super+0x37/0x15b [<ffffffffa00fae56>] ? nfs_super_return_all_delegations+0x2e/0x1b1 [nfs] [<ffffffff811617f3>] kill_anon_super+0x1d/0x7e [<ffffffffa00d0be1>] nfs4_kill_super+0x60/0xb6 [nfs] [<ffffffff81161c17>] deactivate_locked_super+0x34/0x83 [<ffffffff811629ff>] deactivate_super+0x6f/0x7b [<ffffffff81186261>] mntput_no_expire+0x18d/0x199 [<ffffffff811862a8>] mntput+0x3b/0x44 [<ffffffff81186d87>] release_mounts+0xa2/0xbf [<ffffffff811876af>] sys_umount+0x47a/0x4ba [<ffffffff8109e1ca>] ? trace_hardirqs_on_caller+0x1fd/0x22f [<ffffffff816ea86b>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b as do_umount() is inlined.

The buggy part of the patch is this: struct inode *inode = NULL; ..... - if (nd.last.name[nd.last.len]) - goto slashes; inode = dentry->d_inode; - if (inode) - ihold(inode); + if (nd.last.name[nd.last.len] || !inode) + goto slashes; + ihold(inode) ... if (inode) iput(inode); /* truncate the inode here */ If nd.last.name[nd.last.len] is nonzero (and thus goto slashes branch is taken), and dentry->d_inode is non-NULL, then this code now does an additional iput on the inode, which is wrong. Fix this by only setting the inode variable if nd.last.name[nd.last.len] is 0.

These looped packet have their MAC header removed from the skb by the kernel looping code. This confuse various netfilter's netlink queue, netlink log and the legacy ip_queue, because they try to extract a hardware address from these packets, but extracts a part of the IP header instead.

9be34c9 Linus Torvalds 16 June 2011, 07:35:09 UTC mm: get rid of the most spurious find_vma_prev() users We have some users of this function that date back to before the vma list was doubly linked, and just are silly. These days, you can find the previous vma by just following the vma->vm_prev pointer. In some cases you don't need any find_vma() lookup at all, and in other cases you're better off with the regular "find_vma()" that uses the vma cache front-end lookup. Some "find_vma_prev()" users are still valid, though. For example, in the case of a stack that grows up, it can be the case that we don't find any 'vma' at all (because we're looking up an address that is past the last vma), and that the stack that we want to grow is the 'prev' vma. But that kind of special case aside, we generally should prefer to use 'find_vma()'. Noticed due to a totally unrelated POWER memory corruption bug that just happened to hit in 'find_vma_prev()' and made me go "Hmm - why are we using that function here?".

273ef95 Nils Carlson 15 June 2011, 22:08:54 UTC drivers/char/hpet.c: fix periodic-emulation for delayed interrupts When interrupts are delayed due to interrupt masking or due to other interrupts being serviced the HPET periodic-emuation would fail. This happened because given an interval t and a time for the current interrupt m we would compute the next time as t + m. This works until we are delayed for > t, in which case we would be writing a new value which is in fact in the past. This can be solved by computing the next time instead as (k * t) + m where k is large enough to be in the future. The exact computation of k is described in a comment to the code. More detail: Assuming an interval of 5 between each expected interrupt we have a normal case of t0: interrupt, read t0 from comparator, set next interrupt t0 + 5 t5: interrupt, read t5 from comparator, set next interrupt t5 + 5 t10: interrupt, read t10 from comparator, set next interrupt t10 + 5 ... So, what happens when the interrupt is serviced too late? t0: interrupt, read t0 from comparator, set next interrupt t0 + 5 t11: delayed interrupt serviced, read t5 from comparator, set next interrupt t5 + 5, which is in the past! ... counter loops ... t10: Much much later, get the next interrupt. This can happen either because we have interrupts masked for too long (some stupid driver goes on a printk rampage) or just because we are pushing the limits of the interval (too small a period), or both most probably. My solution is to read the main counter as well and set the next interrupt to occur at the right interval, for example: t0: interrupt, read t0 from comparator, set next interrupt t0 + 5 t11: delayed interrupt serviced, read t5 from comparator, set next interrupt t15 as t10 has been missed. t15: back on track.

f9e35b3 Mel Gorman 15 June 2011, 22:08:52 UTC mm: compaction: abort compaction if too many pages are isolated and caller is asynchronous V2 Asynchronous compaction is used when promoting to huge pages. This is all very nice but if there are a number of processes in compacting memory, a large number of pages can be isolated. An "asynchronous" process can stall for long periods of time as a result with a user reporting that firefox can stall for 10s of seconds. This patch aborts asynchronous compaction if too many pages are isolated as it's better to fail a hugepage promotion than stall a process.

7454f4b Mel Gorman 15 June 2011, 22:08:50 UTC mm: compaction: ensure that the compaction free scanner does not move to the next zone Compaction works with two scanners, a migration and a free scanner. When the scanners crossover, migration within the zone is complete. The location of the scanner is recorded on each cycle to avoid excesive scanning. When a zone is small and mostly reserved, it's very easy for the migration scanner to be close to the end of the zone. Then the following situation can occurs o migration scanner isolates some pages near the end of the zone o free scanner starts at the end of the zone but finds that the migration scanner is already there o free scanner gets reinitialised for the next cycle as cc->migrate_pfn + pageblock_nr_pages moving the free scanner into the next zone o migration scanner moves into the next zone When this happens, NR_ISOLATED accounting goes haywire because some of the accounting happens against the wrong zone. One zones counter remains positive while the other goes negative even though the overall global count is accurate. This was reported on X86-32 with !SMP because !SMP allows the negative counters to be visible. The fact that it is the bug should theoritically be possible there.

I thought compaction_suitable should return COMPACT_PARTIAL in -1000 case, because in this case allocation could succeed depending on watermarks. The impact of this is that compaction starts and compact_finished() is called which rechecks the watermarks and the free lists. It should have the same result in that compaction should not start but is more expensive.

5db8a73 Minchan Kim 15 June 2011, 22:08:48 UTC mm/memory-failure.c: fix page isolated count mismatch Pages isolated for migration are accounted with the vmstat counters NR_ISOLATE_[ANON|FILE]. Callers of migrate_pages() are expected to increment these counters when pages are isolated from the LRU. Once the pages have been migrated, they are put back on the LRU or freed and the isolated count is decremented. Memory failure is not properly accounting for pages it isolates causing the NR_ISOLATED counters to be negative. On SMP builds, this goes unnoticed as negative counters are treated as 0 due to expected per-cpu drift. On UP builds, the counter is treated by too_many_isolated() as a large value causing processes to enter D state during page reclaim or compaction. This patch accounts for pages isolated by memory failure correctly.

According to commit b99b87f70c7785ab ("kernel: constructor support"), gcov (CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL) needs this. However, CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS currently defaults to y, with no option to disable it, and CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL depends on it. Instead, default it to n and have CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL select it, so that the normal case of CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=n will result in CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS=n.

We are not draining per cpu cached charges during soft limit reclaim because background reclaim doesn't care about charges. It tries to free some memory and charges will not give any. Cached charges might influence only selection of the biggest soft limit offender but as the call is done only after the selection has been already done it makes no change.

26fe616 KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 15 June 2011, 22:08:45 UTC memcg: fix percpu cached charge draining frequency For performance, memory cgroup caches some "charge" from res_counter into per cpu cache. This works well but because it's cache, it needs to be flushed in some cases. Typical cases are 1. when someone hit limit. 2. when rmdir() is called and need to charges to be 0. But "1" has problem. Recently, with large SMP machines, we see many kworker runs because of flushing memcg's cache. Bad things in implementation are that even if a cpu contains a cache for memcg not related to a memcg which hits limit, drain code is called. This patch does A) check percpu cache contains a useful data or not. B) check other asynchronous percpu draining doesn't run. C) don't call local cpu callback. (*)This patch avoid changing the calling condition with hard-limit.

Even then it wasn't a problem because the final mmput() on an mm was forced to acquire and release mmap_sem in write-mode, preventing an exiting owner to go away while the mmap_sem was held, and until "692e0b3 mm: thp: optimize memcg charge in khugepaged", the memory cgroup charge was protected by mmap_sem in read-mode. Instead of going back to relying on the mmap_sem to enforce lifetime of a task, this patch ensures that mm->owner is properly set to NULL when the last possible owner is exiting, which the memory controller can handle just fine.

But this may scan a pfn which is not on any node and can access memmap which is not initialized. This makes page_cgroup_init() for SPARSEMEM node aware and remove a code to get nid from page->flags.

b0320c7 Rafael Aquini 15 June 2011, 22:08:39 UTC mm: fix negative commitlimit when gigantic hugepages are allocated When 1GB hugepages are allocated on a system, free(1) reports less available memory than what really is installed in the box. Also, if the total size of hugepages allocated on a system is over half of the total memory size, CommitLimit becomes a negative number. The problem is that gigantic hugepages (order > MAX_ORDER) can only be allocated at boot with bootmem, thus its frames are not accounted to 'totalram_pages'. However, they are accounted to hugetlb_total_pages() What happens to turn CommitLimit into a negative number is this calculation, in fs/proc/meminfo.c: allowed = ((totalram_pages - hugetlb_total_pages()) * sysctl_overcommit_ratio / 100) + total_swap_pages; A similar calculation occurs in __vm_enough_memory() in mm/mmap.c. Also, every vm statistic which depends on 'totalram_pages' will render confusing values, as if system were 'missing' some part of its memory. Impact of this bug: When gigantic hugepages are allocated and sysctl_overcommit_memory == OVERCOMMIT_NEVER. In a such situation, __vm_enough_memory() goes through the mentioned 'allowed' calculation and might end up mistakenly returning -ENOMEM, thus forcing the system to start reclaiming pages earlier than it would be ususal, and this could cause detrimental impact to overall system's performance, depending on the workload. Besides the aforementioned scenario, I can only think of this causing annoyances with memory reports from /proc/meminfo and free(1).

959ecc4 KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 15 June 2011, 22:08:38 UTC mm/memory_hotplug.c: fix building of node hotplug zonelist During memory hotplug we refresh zonelists when we online a page in a new zone. It means that the node's zonelist is not initialized until pages are onlined. So for example, "nid" passed by MEM_GOING_ONLINE notifier will point to NODE_DATA(nid) which has no zone fallback list. Moreover, if we hot-add cpu-only nodes, alloc_pages() will do no fallback. This patch makes a zonelist when a new pgdata is available. Note: in production, at fujitsu, memory should be onlined before cpu and our server didn't have any memory-less nodes and had no problems. But recent changes in MEM_GOING_ONLINE+page_cgroup will access not initialized zonelist of node. Anyway, there are memory-less node and we need some care.

As the message doesn't show very useful information to the widest audience of kernel boot message gazers, it should be removed.

Moving LEDS_GPIO_REGISTER out of the menuconfig NEW_LEDS fixes this unintended side effect.
