d8bdc59 Linus Torvalds 18 April 2011, 17:36:54 UTC proc: do proper range check on readdir offset Rather than pass in some random truncated offset to the pid-related functions, check that the offset is in range up-front. This is just cleanup, the previous commit fixed the real problem. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> 18 April 2011, 17:36:54 UTC
c78193e Linus Torvalds 18 April 2011, 17:35:30 UTC next_pidmap: fix overflow condition next_pidmap() just quietly accepted whatever 'last' pid that was passed in, which is not all that safe when one of the users is /proc. Admittedly the proc code should do some sanity checking on the range (and that will be the next commit), but that doesn't mean that the helper functions should just do that pidmap pointer arithmetic without checking the range of its arguments. So clamp 'last' to PID_MAX_LIMIT. The fact that we then do "last+1" doesn't really matter, the for-loop does check against the end of the pidmap array properly (it's only the actual pointer arithmetic overflow case we need to worry about, and going one bit beyond isn't going to overflow).

c36b58e Igor Mammedov 18 April 2011, 17:17:17 UTC Input: xen-kbdfront - fix mouse getting stuck after save/restore Mouse gets "stuck" after restore of PV guest but buttons are in working condition. If driver has been configured for ABS coordinates at start it will get XENKBD_TYPE_POS events and then suddenly after restore it'll start getting XENKBD_TYPE_MOTION events, that will be dropped later and they won't get into user-space. Regression was introduced by hunk 5 and 6 of 5ea5254aa0ad269cfbd2875c973ef25ab5b5e9db ("Input: xen-kbdfront - advertise either absolute or relative coordinates"). Driver on restore should ask xen for request-abs-pointer again if it is available. So restore parts that did it before 5ea5254.

c3b328a NeilBrown 18 April 2011, 08:25:43 UTC md: fix up raid1/raid10 unplugging. We just need to make sure that an unplug event wakes up the md thread, which is exactly what mddev_check_plugged does. Also remove some plug-related code that is no longer needed.

7c13edc NeilBrown 18 April 2011, 08:25:43 UTC md: incorporate new plugging into raid5. In raid5 plugging is used for 2 things: 1/ collecting writes that require a bitmap update 2/ collecting writes in the hope that we can create full stripes - or at least more-full. We now release these different sets of stripes when plug_cnt is zero. Also in make_request, we call mddev_check_plug to hopefully increase plug_cnt, and wake up the thread at the end if plugging wasn't achieved for some reason.

97658cd NeilBrown 18 April 2011, 08:25:42 UTC md: provide generic support for handling unplug callbacks. When an md device adds a request to a queue, it can call mddev_check_plugged. If this succeeds then we know that the md thread will be woken up shortly, and ->plug_cnt will be non-zero until then, so some processing can be delayed. If it fails, then no unplug callback is expected and the make_request function needs to do whatever is required to make the request happen.

482c083 NeilBrown 18 April 2011, 08:25:42 UTC md - remove old plugging code. md has some plugging infrastructure for RAID5 to use because the normal plugging infrastructure required a 'request_queue', and when called from dm, RAID5 doesn't have one of those available. This relied on the ->unplug_fn callback which doesn't exist any more. So remove all of that code, both in md and raid5. Subsequent patches with restore the plugging functionality.

af1db72 NeilBrown 18 April 2011, 08:25:41 UTC md/dm - remove remains of plug_fn callback. Now that unplugging is done differently, the unplug_fn callback is never called, so it can be completely discarded. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> 18 April 2011, 08:25:41 UTC
e1dfa0a NeilBrown 18 April 2011, 08:25:41 UTC md: use new plugging interface for RAID IO. md/raid submits a lot of IO from the various raid threads. So adding start/finish plug calls to those so that some plugging happens. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> 18 April 2011, 08:25:41 UTC
99e2259 Jens Axboe 18 April 2011, 07:59:55 UTC block: drop queue lock before calling __blk_run_queue() for kblockd punt If we know we are going to punt to kblockd, we can drop the queue lock before calling into __blk_run_queue() since it only does a safe bit test and a workqueue call. Since kblockd needs to grab this very lock as one of the first things it does, it's a good optimization to drop the lock before waking kblockd.

b4cb290 Jens Axboe 18 April 2011, 07:54:05 UTC Revert "block: add callback function for unplug notification" MD can't use this since it really requires us to be able to keep more than a single piece of state for the unplug.

86c74ab Eric B Munson 15 April 2011, 08:12:30 UTC powerpc/perf_event: Skip updating kernel counters if register value shrinks Because of speculative event roll back, it is possible for some event coutners to decrease between reads on POWER7. This causes a problem with the way that counters are updated. Delta calues are calculated in a 64 bit value and the top 32 bits are masked. If the register value has decreased, this leaves us with a very large positive value added to the kernel counters. This patch protects against this by skipping the update if the delta would be negative. This can lead to a lack of precision in the coutner values, but from my testing the value is typcially fewer than 10 samples at a time.

127493d Nishanth Aravamudan 13 April 2011, 19:45:59 UTC powerpc/pseries: Use a kmem cache for DTL buffers PAPR specifies that DTL buffers can not cross AMS environments (aka CMO in the PAPR) and can not cross a memory entitlement granule boundary (4k). This is found in section 14.11.3.2 H_REGISTER_VPA of the PAPR. kmalloc does not guarantee an alignment of the allocation, though, beyond 8 bytes (at least in my understanding). Create a special kmem cache for DTL buffers with the alignment requirement. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> 18 April 2011, 03:08:08 UTC

d3b3e15 Alex Deucher 17 April 2011, 08:20:19 UTC i2c-algo-bit: Call pre/post_xfer for bit_test Apparently some distros set i2c-algo-bit.bit_test to 1 by default. In some cases this causes i2c_bit_add_bus to fail and prevents the i2c bus from being added. In the radeon case, we fail to add the ddc i2c buses which prevents the driver from being able to detect attached monitors. The i2c bus works fine even if bit_test fails. This is likely due to gpio switching that is required and handled in the pre/post_xfer hooks, so call the pre/post_xfer hooks in the bit test as well.

a237c1c Jens Axboe 16 April 2011, 11:27:55 UTC block: let io_schedule() flush the plug inline Linus correctly observes that the most important dispatch cases are now done from kblockd, this isn't ideal for latency reasons. The original reason for switching dispatches out-of-line was to avoid too deep a stack, so by _only_ letting the "accidental" flush directly in schedule() be guarded by offload to kblockd, we should be able to get the best of both worlds. So add a blk_schedule_flush_plug() that offloads to kblockd, and only use that from the schedule() path. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com> 16 April 2011, 11:27:55 UTC

So instead if we are allocating a chunk, mark it in the space_info so we don't get two people trying to allocate at the same time.

As the FS fragments, these clusters become harder to find and we have to decide between allocating a new chunk to make more clusters or giving up on the cluster to allocate from the free space we have. Right now it creates too many chunks, and you can end up with a whole FS that is mostly empty metadata chunks. This commit changes the allocation code to be more strict and only allocate new chunks when we've made good use of the chunks we already have.

Round robin assignment doesn't work because init_numa_sched_groups_power() assumes all logical cpus in the same physical cpu share the same node (then it only accounts for group_first_cpu()), and the simple round robin breaks the above assumption. Thus, this patch implements a reassignment of node-ids if buggy firmware or numa emulation makes wrong cpu node map. Tt enforce all logical cpus in the same physical cpu share the same node.

It's the directory locking that rename and readdir() etc all care about. The comment just above even says so - but then the BUG_ON() still checked the dentry inode itself. Very few people noticed, because this helper function really isn't used for very much, so you had to be using ncpfs to ever hit it. I think I should just remove the BUG_ON (the function really has just one user), but let's run with it fixed for a while before getting rid of it entirely.

341aea2 KOSAKI Motohiro 14 April 2011, 22:22:13 UTC oom-kill: remove boost_dying_task_prio() This is an almost-revert of commit 93b43fa ("oom: give the dying task a higher priority"). That commit dramatically improved oom killer logic when a fork-bomb occurs. But I've found that it has nasty corner case. Now cpu cgroup has strange default RT runtime. It's 0! That said, if a process under cpu cgroup promote RT scheduling class, the process never run at all. If an admin inserts a !RT process into a cpu cgroup by setting rtruntime=0, usually it runs perfectly because a !RT task isn't affected by the rtruntime knob. But if it promotes an RT task via an explicit setscheduler() syscall or an OOM, the task can't run at all. In short, the oom killer doesn't work at all if admins are using cpu cgroup and don't touch the rtruntime knob. Eventually, kernel may hang up when oom kill occur. I and the original author Luis agreed to disable this logic. Signed-off-by: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Luis Claudio R.

929bea7 KOSAKI Motohiro 14 April 2011, 22:22:12 UTC vmscan: all_unreclaimable() use zone->all_unreclaimable as a name all_unreclaimable check in direct reclaim has been introduced at 2.6.19 by following commit. 2006 Sep 25; commit 408d8544; oom: use unreclaimable info And it went through strange history. firstly, following commit broke the logic unintentionally. 2008 Apr 29; commit a41f24ea; page allocator: smarter retry of costly-order allocations Two years later, I've found obvious meaningless code fragment and restored original intention by following commit. 2010 Jun 04; commit bb21c7ce; vmscan: fix do_try_to_free_pages() return value when priority==0 But, the logic didn't works when 32bit highmem system goes hibernation and Minchan slightly changed the algorithm and fixed it . 2010 Sep 22: commit d1908362: vmscan: check all_unreclaimable in direct reclaim path But, recently, Andrey Vagin found the new corner case. Look, struct zone { .. int all_unreclaimable; .. unsigned long pages_scanned; .. } zone->all_unreclaimable and zone->pages_scanned are neigher atomic variables nor protected by lock. Therefore zones can become a state of zone->page_scanned=0 and zone->all_unreclaimable=1. In this case, current all_unreclaimable() return false even though zone->all_unreclaimabe=1. This resulted in the kernel hanging up when executing a loop of the form 1. fork 2. mmap 3. touch memory 4. read memory 5. munmmap as described in http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1348725#1348725 Is this ignorable minor issue? No. Unfortunately, x86 has very small dma zone and it become zone->all_unreclamble=1 easily. and if it become all_unreclaimable=1, it never restore all_unreclaimable=0. Why? if all_unreclaimable=1, vmscan only try DEF_PRIORITY reclaim and a-few-lru-pages>>DEF_PRIORITY always makes 0. that mean no page scan at all! Eventually, oom-killer never works on such systems. That said, we can't use zone->pages_scanned for this purpose. This patch restore all_unreclaimable() use zone->all_unreclaimable as old. and in addition, to add oom_killer_disabled check to avoid reintroduce the issue of commit d1908362 ("vmscan: check all_unreclaimable in direct reclaim path").

fe936df Michael Ellerman 14 April 2011, 22:22:10 UTC mm: check that we have the right vma in __access_remote_vm() In __access_remote_vm() we need to check that we have found the right vma, not the following vma before we try to access it. Otherwise we might call the vma's access routine with an address which does not fall inside the vma. It was discovered on a current kernel but with an unreleased driver, from memory it was strace leading to a kernel bad access, but it obviously depends on what the access implementation does. Looking at other access implementations I only see: $ git grep -A 5 vm_operations|grep access arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/file.c- .access = spufs_mem_mmap_access, arch/x86/pci/i386.c- .access = generic_access_phys, drivers/char/mem.c- .access = generic_access_phys fs/sysfs/bin.c- .access = bin_access, The spufs one looks like it might behave badly given the wrong vma, it assumes vma->vm_file->private_data is a spu_context, and looks like it would probably blow up pretty quickly if it wasn't. generic_access_phys() only uses the vma to check vm_flags and get the mm, and then walks page tables using the address. So it should bail on the vm_flags check, or at worst let you access some other VM_IO mapping. And bin_access() just proxies to another access implementation.

The latter is marked __meminit while build_all_zonelists() itself has no particular annotation. build_all_zonelists() is only handed a non-NULL pointer in the case of memory hotplug through an existing __meminit path, so the setup_zone_pageset() reference is always safe.
