One is a concurrency issue only affecting SAS connected SATA drives, but which could hang the storage subsystem if it triggers (because the outstanding command count on error never goes back to zero) and the other is a NO_TAG fallout from the switch to hostwide tags which causes the system to crash on module insertion (we've checked carefully and only the 53c700 family of drivers is vulnerable to this issue)" * tag 'scsi-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi: 53c700: fix BUG on untagged commands scsi: fix race between simultaneous decrements of ->host_failed 26 June 2016, 17:08:49 UTC

02dbfc9 Btrfs: fix ->iterate_shared() by upgrading i_rwsem for delayed nodes Commit fe742fd4f90f ("Revert "btrfs: switch to ->iterate_shared()"") backed out the conversion to ->iterate_shared() for Btrfs because the delayed inode handling in btrfs_real_readdir() is racy. However, we can still do readdir in parallel if there are no delayed nodes. This is a temporary fix which upgrades the shared inode lock to an exclusive lock only when we have delayed items until we come up with a more complete solution. While we're here, rename the btrfs_{get,put}_delayed_items functions to make it very clear that they're just for readdir. Tested with xfstests and by doing a parallel kernel build: while make tinyconfig && make -j4 && git clean dqfx; do : done along with a bunch of parallel finds in another shell: while true; do for ((i=0; i<4; i++)); do find . >/dev/null & done wait done Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <clm@fb.com> 25 June 2016, 13:20:10 UTC

63d2f95 fs/nilfs2: fix potential underflow in call to crc32_le The value `bytes' comes from the filesystem which is about to be mounted. We cannot trust that the value is always in the range we expect it to be. Check its value before using it to calculate the length for the crc32_le call. It value must be larger (or equal) sumoff + 4. This fixes a kernel bug when accidentially mounting an image file which had the nilfs2 magic value 0x3434 at the right offset 0x406 by chance. The bytes 0x01 0x00 were stored at 0x408 and were interpreted as a s_bytes value of 1. This caused an underflow when substracting sumoff + 4 (20) in the call to crc32_le.

7407054 oom, suspend: fix oom_reaper vs. oom_killer_disable race Tetsuo has reported the following potential oom_killer_disable vs. oom_reaper race: (1) freeze_processes() starts freezing user space threads. (2) Somebody (maybe a kenrel thread) calls out_of_memory(). (3) The OOM killer calls mark_oom_victim() on a user space thread P1 which is already in __refrigerator(). (4) oom_killer_disable() sets oom_killer_disabled = true. (5) P1 leaves __refrigerator() and enters do_exit(). (6) The OOM reaper calls exit_oom_victim(P1) before P1 can call exit_oom_victim(P1). (7) oom_killer_disable() returns while P1 not yet finished (8) P1 perform IO/interfere with the freezer. This situation is unfortunate. We cannot move oom_killer_disable after all the freezable kernel threads are frozen because the oom victim might depend on some of those kthreads to make a forward progress to exit so we could deadlock. It is also far from trivial to teach the oom_reaper to not call exit_oom_victim() because then we would lose a guarantee of the OOM killer and oom_killer_disable forward progress because exit_mm->mmput might block and never call exit_oom_victim. It seems the easiest way forward is to workaround this race by calling try_to_freeze_tasks again after oom_killer_disable. This will make sure that all the tasks are frozen or it bails out.

Actually, there were some discussions about removing these two BUG() assertions, it would not bring any side effect. Then, I did the the following changes, 1) use the existing macro CATCH_BH_JBD_RACES to wrap BUG() in the ocfs2_read_blocks_sync function like before. 2) disable the macro CATCH_BH_JBD_RACES in Makefile by default.

a4f04f2 mm, compaction: abort free scanner if split fails If the memory compaction free scanner cannot successfully split a free page (only possible due to per-zone low watermark), terminate the free scanner rather than continuing to scan memory needlessly. If the watermark is insufficient for a free page of order <= cc->order, then terminate the scanner since all future splits will also likely fail. This prevents the compaction freeing scanner from scanning all memory on very large zones (very noticeable for zones > 128GB, for instance) when all splits will likely fail while holding zone->lock. compaction_alloc() iterating a 128GB zone has been benchmarked to take over 400ms on some systems whereas any free page isolated and ready to be split ends up failing in split_free_page() because of the low watermark check and thus the iteration continues. The next time compaction occurs, the freeing scanner will likely start at the end of the zone again since no success was made previously and we get the same lengthy iteration until the zone is brought above the low watermark. All thp page faults can take >400ms in such a state without this fix.

c8cc708 mm/hugetlb: clear compound_mapcount when freeing gigantic pages While working on s390 support for gigantic hugepages I ran into the following "Bad page state" warning when freeing gigantic pages: BUG: Bad page state in process bash pfn:580001 page:000003d116000040 count:0 mapcount:0 mapping:ffffffff00000000 index:0x0 flags: 0x7fffc0000000000() page dumped because: non-NULL mapping This is because page->compound_mapcount, which is part of a union with page->mapping, is initialized with -1 in prep_compound_gigantic_page(), and not cleared again during destroy_compound_gigantic_page(). Fix this by clearing the compound_mapcount in destroy_compound_gigantic_page() before clearing compound_head. Interestingly enough, the warning will not show up on x86_64, although this should not be architecture specific. Apparently there is an endianness issue, combined with the fact that the union contains both a 64 bit ->mapping pointer and a 32 bit atomic_t ->compound_mapcount as members. The resulting bogus page->mapping on x86_64 therefore contains 00000000ffffffff instead of ffffffff00000000 on s390, which will falsely trigger the PageAnon() check in free_pages_prepare() because page->mapping & PAGE_MAPPING_ANON is true on little-endian architectures like x86_64 in this case (the page is not compound anymore, ->compound_head was already cleared before). As a result, page->mapping will be cleared before doing the checks in free_pages_check(). Not sure if the bogus "PageAnon() returning true" on x86_64 for the first tail page of a gigantic page (at this stage) has other theoretical implications, but they would also be fixed with this patch.

8f18227 mm/swap.c: flush lru pvecs on compound page arrival Currently we can have compound pages held on per cpu pagevecs, which leads to a lot of memory unavailable for reclaim when needed. In the systems with hundreads of processors it can be GBs of memory. On of the way of reproducing the problem is to not call munmap explicitly on all mapped regions (i.e. after receiving SIGTERM). After that some pages (with THP enabled also huge pages) may end up on lru_add_pvec, example below. void main() { #pragma omp parallel { size_t size = 55 * 1000 * 1000; // smaller than MEM/CPUS void *p = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS , -1, 0); if (p != MAP_FAILED) memset(p, 0, size); //munmap(p, size); // uncomment to make the problem go away } } When we run it with THP enabled it will leave significant amount of memory on lru_add_pvec. This memory will be not reclaimed if we hit OOM, so when we run above program in a loop: for i in `seq 100`; do ./a.out; done many processes (95% in my case) will be killed by OOM. The primary point of the LRU add cache is to save the zone lru_lock contention with a hope that more pages will belong to the same zone and so their addition can be batched. The huge page is already a form of batched addition (it will add 512 worth of memory in one go) so skipping the batching seems like a safer option when compared to a potential excess in the caching which can be quite large and much harder to fix because lru_add_drain_all is way to expensive and it is not really clear what would be a good moment to call it. Similarly we can reproduce the problem on lru_deactivate_pvec by adding: madvise(p, size, MADV_FREE); after memset. This patch flushes lru pvecs on compound page arrival making the problem less severe - after applying it kill rate of above example drops to 0%, due to reducing maximum amount of memory held on pvec from 28MB (with THP) to 56kB per CPU.

e838a45 mm, sl[au]b: add __GFP_ATOMIC to the GFP reclaim mask Commit d0164adc89f6 ("mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd") modified __GFP_WAIT to explicitly identify the difference between atomic callers and those that were unwilling to sleep. Later the definition was removed entirely. The GFP_RECLAIM_MASK is the set of flags that affect watermark checking and reclaim behaviour but __GFP_ATOMIC was never added. Without it, atomic users of the slab allocator strip the __GFP_ATOMIC flag and cannot access the page allocator atomic reserves. This patch addresses the problem. The user-visible impact depends on the workload but potentially atomic allocations unnecessarily fail without this path.

9b75a86 mm: mempool: kasan: don't poot mempool objects in quarantine Currently we may put reserved by mempool elements into quarantine via kasan_kfree(). This is totally wrong since quarantine may really free these objects. So when mempool will try to use such element, use-after-free will happen. Or mempool may decide that it no longer need that element and double-free it. So don't put object into quarantine in kasan_kfree(), just poison it. Rename kasan_kfree() to kasan_poison_kfree() to respect that. Also, we shouldn't use kasan_slab_alloc()/kasan_krealloc() in kasan_unpoison_element() because those functions may update allocation stacktrace. This would be wrong for the most of the remove_element call sites. (The only call site where we may want to update alloc stacktrace is in mempool_alloc(). Kmemleak solves this by calling kmemleak_update_trace(), so we could make something like that too. But this is out of scope of this patch).

f2db197 jbd2: get rid of superfluous __GFP_REPEAT jbd2_alloc is explicit about its allocation preferences wrt. the allocation size. Sub page allocations go to the slab allocator and larger are using either the page allocator or vmalloc. This is all good but the logic is unnecessarily complex. 1) as per Ted, the vmalloc fallback is a left-over: : jbd2_alloc is only passed in the bh->b_size, which can't be PAGE_SIZE, so : the code path that calls vmalloc() should never get called. When we : conveted jbd2_alloc() to suppor sub-page size allocations in commit : d2eecb039368, there was an assumption that it could be called with a size : greater than PAGE_SIZE, but that's certaily not true today. Moreover vmalloc allocation might even lead to a deadlock because the callers expect GFP_NOFS context while vmalloc is GFP_KERNEL. 2) __GFP_REPEAT for requests <= PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER is ignored since the flag was introduced.

32d6bd9 tree wide: get rid of __GFP_REPEAT for order-0 allocations part I This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1]. I have basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree. I am sending it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced considerably when we want to target rc2. I plan to send the next step and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window hopefully. Motivation: While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of __GFP_REPEAT in the tree. It seems that a majority of the usage is and always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small orders very often. It seems that a big pile of them is just a copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another. I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just making the semantic more unclear. Please note that GFP_REPEAT is documented as * __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt * _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation. while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic. So one could reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop for ever. This is not implemented right now though. I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic for it. $ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l 111 $ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l 36 So we are down to the third after this patch series. The remaining places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation requests. This still needs some double checking which I will do later after all the simple ones are sorted out. I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I do not have cross compiler for them. Patches should be quite trivial to review for stupid compile mistakes though. The tricky parts are usually hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from arch maintainers. [1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1461849846-27209-1-git-send-email-mhocko@kernel.org This patch (of 19): __GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. Yet we have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0 allocations. This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail). Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places. This would allow to identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

7f1a00b fix up initial thread stack pointer vs thread_info confusion The INIT_TASK() initializer was similarly confused about the stack vs thread_info allocation that the allocators had, and that were fixed in commit b235beea9e99 ("Clarify naming of thread info/stack allocators"). The task ->stack pointer only incidentally ends up having the same value as the thread_info, and in fact that will change. So fix the initial task struct initializer to point to 'init_stack' instead of 'init_thread_info', and make sure the ia64 definition for that exists. This actually makes the ia64 tsk->stack pointer be sensible for the initial task, but not for any other task. As mentioned in commit b235beea9e99, that whole pointer isn't actually used on ia64, since task_stack_page() there just points to the (single) allocation. All the other architectures seem to have copied the 'init_stack' definition, even if it tended to be generally unusued.

aca9c29 x86: fix up a few misc stack pointer vs thread_info confusions As the actual pointer value is the same for the thread stack allocation and the thread_info, code that confused the two worked fine, but will break when the thread info is moved away from the stack allocation. It also looks very confusing. For example, the kprobe code wanted to know the current top of stack. To do that, it used this: (unsigned long)current_thread_info() + THREAD_SIZE which did indeed give the correct value. But it's not only a fairly nonsensical expression, it's also rather complex, especially since we actually have this: static inline unsigned long current_top_of_stack(void) which not only gives us the value we are interested in, but happens to be how "current_thread_info()" is currently defined as: (struct thread_info *)(current_top_of_stack() - THREAD_SIZE); so using current_thread_info() to figure out the top of the stack really is a very round-about thing to do. The other cases are just simpler confusion about task_thread_info() vs task_stack_page(), which currently return the same pointer - but if you want the stack page, you really should be using the latter one. And there was one entirely unused assignment of the current stack to a thread_info pointer. All cleaned up to make more sense today, and make it easier to move the thread_info away from the stack in the future. No semantic changes.

b235bee Clarify naming of thread info/stack allocators We've had the thread info allocated together with the thread stack for most architectures for a long time (since the thread_info was split off from the task struct), but that is about to change. But the patches that move the thread info to be off-stack (and a part of the task struct instead) made it clear how confused the allocator and freeing functions are. Because the common case was that we share an allocation with the thread stack and the thread_info, the two pointers were identical. That identity then meant that we would have things like ti = alloc_thread_info_node(tsk, node); ... tsk->stack = ti; which certainly _worked_ (since stack and thread_info have the same value), but is rather confusing: why are we assigning a thread_info to the stack? And if we move the thread_info away, the "confusing" code just gets to be entirely bogus. So remove all this confusion, and make it clear that we are doing the stack allocation by renaming and clarifying the function names to be about the stack. The fact that the thread_info then shares the allocation is an implementation detail, and not really about the allocation itself. This is a pure renaming and type fix: we pass in the same pointer, it's just that we clarify what the pointer means. The ia64 code that actually only has one single allocation (for all of task_struct, thread_info and kernel thread stack) now looks a bit odd, but since "tsk->stack" is actually not even used there, that oddity doesn't matter.

9996537 nfsd: check permissions when setting ACLs Use set_posix_acl, which includes proper permission checks, instead of calling ->set_acl directly. Without this anyone may be able to grant themselves permissions to a file by setting the ACL. Lock the inode to make the new checks atomic with respect to set_acl. (Also, nfsd was the only caller of set_acl not locking the inode, so I suspect this may fix other races.) This also simplifies the code, and ensures our ACLs are checked by posix_acl_valid. The permission checks and the inode locking were lost with commit 4ac7249e, which changed nfsd to use the set_acl inode operation directly instead of going through xattr handlers.

d2bd05d xen-pciback: return proper values during BAR sizing Reads following writes with all address bits set to 1 should return all changeable address bits as one, not the BAR size (nor, as was the case for the upper half of 64-bit BARs, the high half of the region's end address). Presumably this didn't cause any problems so far because consumers use the value to calculate the size (usually via val & -val), and do nothing else with it. But also consider the exception here: Unimplemented BARs should always return all zeroes. And finally, the check for whether to return the sizing address on read for the ROM BAR should ignore all non-address bits, not just the ROM Enable one.

feb245e sched/core: Allow kthreads to fall back to online && !active cpus During CPU hotplug, CPU_ONLINE callbacks are run while the CPU is online but not active. A CPU_ONLINE callback may create or bind a kthread so that its cpus_allowed mask only allows the CPU which is being brought online. The kthread may start executing before the CPU is made active and can end up in select_fallback_rq(). In such cases, the expected behavior is selecting the CPU which is coming online; however, because select_fallback_rq() only chooses from active CPUs, it determines that the task doesn't have any viable CPU in its allowed mask and ends up overriding it to cpu_possible_mask. CPU_ONLINE callbacks should be able to put kthreads on the CPU which is coming online. Update select_fallback_rq() so that it follows cpu_online() rather than cpu_active() for kthreads.

4c5ea0a locking/static_key: Fix concurrent static_key_slow_inc() The following scenario is possible: CPU 1 CPU 2 static_key_slow_inc() atomic_inc_not_zero() -> key.enabled == 0, no increment jump_label_lock() atomic_inc_return() -> key.enabled == 1 now static_key_slow_inc() atomic_inc_not_zero() -> key.enabled == 1, inc to 2 return ** static key is wrong! jump_label_update() jump_label_unlock() Testing the static key at the point marked by (**) will follow the wrong path for jumps that have not been patched yet. This can actually happen when creating many KVM virtual machines with userspace LAPIC emulation; just run several copies of the following program: #include <fcntl.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/ioctl.h> #include <linux/kvm.h> int main(void) { for (;;) { int kvmfd = open("/dev/kvm", O_RDONLY); int vmfd = ioctl(kvmfd, KVM_CREATE_VM, 0); close(ioctl(vmfd, KVM_CREATE_VCPU, 1)); close(vmfd); close(kvmfd); } return 0; } Every KVM_CREATE_VCPU ioctl will attempt a static_key_slow_inc() call. The static key's purpose is to skip NULL pointer checks and indeed one of the processes eventually dereferences NULL. As explained in the commit that introduced the bug: 706249c222f6 ("locking/static_keys: Rework update logic") jump_label_update() needs key.enabled to be true. The solution adopted here is to temporarily make key.enabled == -1, and use go down the slow path when key.enabled <= 0.

b7f6705 Btrfs: Force stripesize to the value of sectorsize Btrfs code currently assumes stripesize to be same as sectorsize. However Btrfs-progs (until commit df05c7ed455f519e6e15e46196392e4757257305) has been setting btrfs_super_block->stripesize to a value of 4096. This commit makes sure that the value of btrfs_super_block->stripesize is a power of 2. Later, it unconditionally sets btrfs_root->stripesize to sectorsize.

c0d2f61 btrfs: fix disk_i_size update bug when fallocate() fails When doing truncate operation, btrfs_setsize() will first call truncate_setsize() to set new inode->i_size, but if later btrfs_truncate() fails, btrfs_setsize() will call "i_size_write(inode, BTRFS_I(inode)->disk_i_size)" to reset the inmemory inode size, now bug occurs. It's because for truncate case btrfs_ordered_update_i_size() directly uses inode->i_size to update BTRFS_I(inode)->disk_i_size, indeed we should use the "offset" argument to update disk_i_size. Here is the call graph: ==>btrfs_truncate() ====>btrfs_truncate_inode_items() ======>btrfs_ordered_update_i_size(inode, last_size, NULL); Here btrfs_ordered_update_i_size()'s offset argument is last_size. And below test case can reveal this bug: dd if=/dev/zero of=fs.img bs=$((1024*1024)) count=100 dev=$(losetup --show -f fs.img) mkdir -p /mnt/mntpoint mkfs.btrfs -f $dev mount $dev /mnt/mntpoint cd /mnt/mntpoint echo "workdir is: /mnt/mntpoint" blocksize=$((128 * 1024)) dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile bs=$blocksize count=1 sync count=$((17*1024*1024*1024/blocksize)) echo "file size is:" $((count*blocksize)) for ((i = 1; i <= $count; i++)); do i=$((i + 1)) dst_offset=$((blocksize * i)) xfs_io -f -c "reflink testfile 0 $dst_offset $blocksize"\ testfile > /dev/null done sync truncate --size 0 testfile ls -l testfile du -sh testfile exit In this case, truncate operation will fail for enospc reason and "du -sh testfile" returns value greater than 0, but testfile's size is 0, we need to reflect correct inode->i_size.

415b35a Btrfs: fix error handling in map_private_extent_buffer map_private_extent_buffer() can return -EINVAL in two different cases, 1. when the requested contents span two pages if nodesize is larger than pagesize, 2. when it detects something insane. The 2nd one used to be only a WARN_ON(1), and we decided to return a error to callers, but we didn't fix up all its callers, which will be addressed by this patch. Without this, btrfs may end up with 'general protection', ie. reading invalid memory.

c0cf451 IB/srpt: Reduce QP buffer size The memory needed for the send and receive queues associated with a QP is proportional to the max_sge parameter. The current value of that parameter is such that with an mlx4 HCA the QP buffer size is 8 MB. Since DMA is used for communication between HCA and CPU that buffer either has to be allocated coherently or map_single() must succeed for that buffer. Since large contiguous allocations are fragile and since the maximum segment size for e.g. swiotlb is 256 KB, reduce the max_sge parameter. This patch avoids that the following text appears on the console after SRP logout and relogin on a system equipped with multiple IB HCAs: mlx4_core 0000:05:00.0: swiotlb buffer is full (sz: 8388608 bytes) swiotlb: coherent allocation failed for device 0000:05:00.0 size=8388608 CPU: 11 PID: 148 Comm: kworker/11:1 Not tainted 4.7.0-rc4-dbg+ #1 Call Trace: [<ffffffff812c6d35>] dump_stack+0x67/0x92 [<ffffffff812efe71>] swiotlb_alloc_coherent+0x141/0x150 [<ffffffff810458be>] x86_swiotlb_alloc_coherent+0x3e/0x50 [<ffffffffa03861fa>] mlx4_buf_direct_alloc.isra.5+0x9a/0x120 [mlx4_core] [<ffffffffa0386545>] mlx4_buf_alloc+0x165/0x1a0 [mlx4_core] [<ffffffffa035053d>] create_qp_common.isra.29+0x57d/0xff0 [mlx4_ib] [<ffffffffa03510da>] mlx4_ib_create_qp+0x12a/0x3f0 [mlx4_ib] [<ffffffffa031154a>] ib_create_qp+0x3a/0x250 [ib_core] [<ffffffffa055dd4b>] srpt_cm_handler+0x4bb/0xcad [ib_srpt] [<ffffffffa02c1ab0>] cm_process_work+0x20/0xf0 [ib_cm] [<ffffffffa02c3640>] cm_work_handler+0x1ac0/0x2059 [ib_cm] [<ffffffff810737ed>] process_one_work+0x19d/0x490 [<ffffffff81073b29>] worker_thread+0x49/0x490 [<ffffffff8107a0ea>] kthread+0xea/0x100 [<ffffffff815b25af>] ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x40 Fixes: b99f8e4d7bcd ("IB/srpt: convert to the generic RDMA READ/WRITE API") Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@sandisk.com> Cc: Laurence Oberman <loberman@redhat.com> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Sagi Grimberg <sagi@grimberg.me> Signed-off-by: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com> 23 June 2016, 16:04:09 UTC
