f9f07b6 Jan Kara 13 June 2011, 22:58:27 UTC vfs: Fix data corruption after failed write in __block_write_begin() I've got a report of a file corruption from fsxlinux on ext3. 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. However, you can see release_mounts() in there. Note also that it may be necessary to have multiple CPU cores to be able to trigger this bug.

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.

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?".

13fca64 Linus Torvalds 16 June 2011, 04:53:52 UTC Revert "fs/exec.c: use BUILD_BUG_ON for VM_STACK_FLAGS & VM_STACK_INCOMPLETE_SETUP" This reverts commit 7f81c8890c15a10f5220bebae3b6dfae4961962a. It turns out that it's not actually a build-time check on x86-64 UML, which does some seriously crazy stuff with VM_STACK_FLAGS. The VM_STACK_FLAGS define depends on the arch-supplied VM_STACK_DEFAULT_FLAGS value, and on x86-64 UML we have arch/um/sys-x86_64/shared/sysdep/vm-flags.h: #define VM_STACK_DEFAULT_FLAGS \ (test_thread_flag(TIF_IA32) ? vm_stack_flags32 : vm_stack_flags) #define VM_STACK_DEFAULT_FLAGS vm_stack_flags (yes, seriously: two different #define's for that thing, with the first one being inside an "#ifdef TIF_IA32") It's possible that it is UML that should just be fixed in this area, but for now let's just undo the (very small) optimization.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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).

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.

bd5dc17 Josh Triplett 15 June 2011, 22:08:28 UTC uts: make default hostname configurable, rather than always using "(none)" The "hostname" tool falls back to setting the hostname to "localhost" if /etc/hostname does not exist. Distribution init scripts have the same fallback. However, if userspace never calls sethostname, such as when booting with init=/bin/sh, or otherwise booting a minimal system without the usual init scripts, the default hostname of "(none)" remains, unhelpfully appearing in various places such as prompts ("root@(none):~#") and logs. Furthermore, "(none)" doesn't typically resolve to anything useful. Make the default hostname configurable. This removes the need for the standard fallback, provides a useful default for systems that never call sethostname, and makes minimal systems that much more useful with less configuration. Distributions could choose to use "localhost" here to avoid the fallback, while embedded systems may wish to use a specific target hostname.

We should continue compacting in that case because the request came from userspace and there is no particular order to compact for. Similar check has been added by 82478fb7 (mm: compaction: prevent division-by-zero during user-requested compaction) for compaction_suitable. The check is, however, done after zone_watermark_ok which uses order as a right hand argument for shifts. Not only watermark check is pointless if we can break out without it but it also uses 1 << -1 which is not well defined (at least from C standard). Let's move the -1 check above zone_watermark_ok.

That was commit d16dfc550f53 ("mm: mmu_gather rework"). The code in zap_pte_range() has something that looks like the following: pte = pte_offset_map_lock(mm, pmd, addr, &ptl); do { [...] } while (pte++, addr += PAGE_SIZE, addr != end); pte_unmap_unlock(pte - 1, ptl); The pte starts off pointing at the first element in the page table directory that was returned by the pte_offset_map_lock(). When it's done with the page, pte will be pointing to anything between the next entry and the first entry of the next page inclusive. By doing a pte - 1, this puts the pte back onto the original page, which is all that pte_unmap_unlock() needs. In most archs (64 bit), this is not an issue as the pte is ignored in the pte_unmap_unlock(). But on 32 bit archs, where things may be kmapped, it is essential that the pte passed to pte_unmap_unlock() resides on the same page that was given by pte_offest_map_lock(). The problem came in d16dfc55 ("mm: mmu_gather rework") where it introduced a "break;" from the while loop. This alone did not seem to easily trigger the bug. But the modifications made by e303297e6 caused that "break;" to be hit on the first iteration, before the pte++. The pte not being incremented will now cause pte_unmap_unlock(pte - 1) to be pointing to the previous page. This will cause the wrong page to be unmapped, and also trigger the warning above. The simple solution is to just save the pointer given by pte_offset_map_lock() and use it in the unlock.

32e45ff KOSAKI Motohiro 15 June 2011, 22:08:20 UTC mm: increase RECLAIM_DISTANCE to 30 Recently, Robert Mueller reported (http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/9/12/236) that zone_reclaim_mode doesn't work properly on his new NUMA server (Dual Xeon E5520 + Intel S5520UR MB). He is using Cyrus IMAPd and it's built on a very traditional single-process model. * a master process which reads config files and manages the other process * multiple imapd processes, one per connection * multiple pop3d processes, one per connection * multiple lmtpd processes, one per connection * periodical "cleanup" processes. There are thousands of independent processes. The problem is, recent Intel motherboard turn on zone_reclaim_mode by default and traditional prefork model software don't work well on it. Unfortunatelly, such models are still typical even in the 21st century. We can't ignore them. This patch raises the zone_reclaim_mode threshold to 30. 30 doesn't have any specific meaning. but 20 means that one-hop QPI/Hypertransport and such relatively cheap 2-4 socket machine are often used for traditional servers as above. The intention is that these machines don't use zone_reclaim_mode. Note: ia64 and Power have arch specific RECLAIM_DISTANCE definitions. This patch doesn't change such high-end NUMA machine behavior. Dave Hansen said: : I know specifically of pieces of x86 hardware that set the information : in the BIOS to '21' *specifically* so they'll get the zone_reclaim_mode : behavior which that implies. : : They've done performance testing and run very large and scary benchmarks : to make sure that they _want_ this turned on. What this means for them : is that they'll probably be de-optimized, at least on newer versions of : the kernel. : : If you want to do this for particular systems, maybe _that_'s what we : should do. Have a list of specific configurations that need the : defaults overridden either because they're buggy, or they have an : unusual hardware configuration not really reflected in the distance : table. And later said: : The original change in the hardware tables was for the benefit of a : benchmark. Said benchmark isn't going to get run on mainline until the : next batch of enterprise distros drops, at which point the hardware where : this was done will be irrelevant for the benchmark. I'm sure any new : hardware will just set this distance to another yet arbitrary value to : make the kernel do what it wants. :) : : Also, when the hardware got _set_ to this initially, I complained. So, I : guess I'm getting my way now, with this patch. I'm cool with it.

Why? Some processes (eg init, auditd, audispd) wake up when a process exiting. And swap token can be get first page-in process when a process exiting makes no swap token owner. Thus such above intermittent running process often get a token. And currently, swap token priority is only decreased at page fault path. Then, if the process sleep immediately after to grab swap token, the swap token priority never be decreased. That's obviously undesirable.

But RT tasks may wake up on other early_initcall() callers before the lowest_mask is initialized, causing a system crash. Commit "d72bce0e67 rcu: Cure load woes" was the first commit to wake up RT tasks in early init. Before this commit this bug should not happen.

This patch does not implement a proper dynamic RTPM support for sh_mobile_hdmi, instead it restores the previous working state by statically enabling it. A more power-efficient solution should be implemented for the next kernel version.
