commit 778c14af upstream. A 3% of system memory bonus is sometimes too excessive in comparison to other processes. With commit a63d83f4 ("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.

commit fca02843 upstream. This bug was introduced in commit 7e664b3d ("dm space map metadata: fix extending the space map"). When extending a dm-thin metadata volume we: - Switch the space map into a simple bootstrap mode, which allocates all space linearly from the newly added space. - Add new bitmap entries for the new space - Increment the reference counts for those newly allocated bitmap entries - Commit changes to disk - Switch back out of bootstrap mode. But, the disk commit may allocate space itself, if so this fact will be lost when switching out of bootstrap mode. The bug exhibited itself as an error when the bitmap_root, with an erroneous ref count of 0, was subsequently decremented as part of a later disk commit. This would cause the disk commit to fail, and thinp to enter read_only mode. The metadata was not damaged (thin_check passed). The fix is to put the increments + commit into a loop, running until the commit has not allocated extra space. In practise this loop only runs twice. With this fix the following device mapper testsuite test passes: dmtest run --suite thin-provisioning -n thin_remove_works_after_resize Signed-off-by:

commit 7e664b3d upstream. When extending a metadata space map we should do the first commit whilst still in bootstrap mode -- a mode where all blocks get allocated in the new area. That way the commit overhead is allocated from the newly added space. Otherwise we risk running out of space. With this fix, and the previous commit "dm space map common: make sure new space is used during extend", the following device mapper testsuite test passes: dmtest run --suite thin-provisioning -n /resize_metadata_no_io/ Signed-off-by:

commit 12c91a5c upstream. When extending a low level space map we should update nr_blocks at the start so the new space is used for the index entries. Otherwise extend can fail, e.g.: sm_metadata_extend call sequence that fails: -> sm_ll_extend -> dm_tm_new_block -> dm_sm_new_block -> sm_bootstrap_new_block => returns -ENOSPC because smm->begin == smm->ll.nr_blocks Signed-off-by:

commit be35f486 upstream. There may be other parts of the kernel holding a reference on the dm kobject. We must wait until all references are dropped before deallocating the mapped_device structure. The dm_kobject_release method signals that all references are dropped via completion. But dm_kobject_release doesn't free the kobject (which is embedded in the mapped_device structure). This is the sequence of operations: * when destroying a DM device, call kobject_put from dm_sysfs_exit * wait until all users stop using the kobject, when it happens the release method is called * the release method signals the completion and should return without delay * the dm device removal code that waits on the completion continues * the dm device removal code drops the dm_mod reference the device had * the dm device removal code frees the mapped_device structure that contains the kobject Using kobject this way should avoid the module unload race that was mentioned at the beginning of this thread: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/1/4/83Signed-off-by:

commit 19fa1a67 upstream. If a snapshot is created and later deleted the origin dm_thin_device's snapshotted_time will have been updated to reflect the snapshot's creation time. The 'shared' flag in the dm_thin_lookup_result struct returned from dm_thin_find_block() is an approximation based on snapshotted_time -- this is done to avoid 0(n), or worse, time complexity. In this case, the shared flag would be true. But because the 'shared' flag reflects an approximation a block can be incorrectly assumed to be shared (e.g. false positive for 'shared' because the snapshot no longer exists). This could result in discards issued to a thin device not being passed down to the pool's underlying data device. To fix this we double check that a thin block is really still in-use after a mapping is removed using dm_pool_block_is_used(). If the reference count for a block is now zero the discard is allowed to be passed down. Also add a 'definitely_not_shared' member to the dm_thin_new_mapping structure -- reflects that the 'shared' flag in the response from dm_thin_find_block() can only be held as definitive if false is returned.

commit 6ff33b7d upstream. When a task enters call_refreshresult with status 0 from call_refresh and !rpcauth_uptodatecred(task) it enters call_refresh again with no rate-limiting or max number of retries. Instead of trying forever, make use of the retry path that other errors use. This only seems to be possible when the crrefresh callback is gss_refresh_null, which only happens when destroying the context. To reproduce: 1) mount with sec=krb5 (or sec=sys with krb5 negotiated for non FSID specific operations). 2) reboot - the client will be stuck and will need to be hard rebooted BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 22s!

commit ed7e5423 upstream. An NFS4ERR_RECALLCONFLICT is returned by server from a GET_LAYOUT only when a Server Sent a RECALL do to that GET_LAYOUT, or the RECALL and GET_LAYOUT crossed on the wire. In any way this means we want to wait at most until in-flight IO is finished and the RECALL can be satisfied. So a proper wait here is more like 1/10 of a second, not 15 seconds like we have now. In case of a server bug we delay exponentially longer on each retry. Current code totally craps out performance of very large files on most pnfs-objects layouts, because of how the map changes when the file has grown into the next raid group. [Stable: This will patch back to 3.9. If there are earlier still maintained trees, please tell me I'll send a patch] Signed-off-by:

commit e120cc0d upstream. This corrects a problem in spi_pump_messages() that leads to an spi message hanging forever when a call to transfer_one_message() fails. This failure occurs in my MCP2210 driver when the cs_change bit is set on the last transfer in a message, an operation which the hardware does not support. Rationale Since the transfer_one_message() returns an int, we must presume that it may fail. If transfer_one_message() should never fail, it should return void. Thus, calls to transfer_one_message() should properly manage a failure. Fixes: ffbbdd21 (spi: create a message queueing infrastructure) Signed-off-by:

commit aad560b7 upstream. At IO preparation we calculate the max pages at each device and allocate a BIO per device of that size. The calculation was wrong on some unaligned corner cases offset/length combination and would make prepare return with -ENOMEM. This would be bad for pnfs-objects that would in that case IO through MDS. And fatal for exofs were it would fail writes with EIO. Fix it by doing the proper math, that will work in all cases. (I ran a test with all possible offset/length combinations this time round). Also when reading we do not need to allocate for the parity units since we jump over them. Also lower the max_io_length to take into account the parity pages so not to allocate BIOs bigger than PAGE_SIZE Signed-off-by:

commit dfd948e3 upstream. We got a report that the pwritev syscall does not work correctly in compat mode on s390. It turned out that with commit 72ec3516 ("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.

commit 49a12877 upstream. There is currently no facility in ACPI to express the hookup of voltage regulators, the expectation is that the regulators that exist in the system will be handled transparently by firmware if they need software control at all. This means that if for some reason the regulator API is enabled on such a system it should assume that any supplies that devices need are provided by the system at all relevant times without any software intervention. Tell the regulator core to make this assumption by calling regulator_has_full_constraints(). Do this as soon as we know we are using ACPI so that the information is available to the regulator core as early as possible. This will cause the regulator core to pretend that there is an always on regulator supplying any supply that is requested but that has not otherwise been mapped which is the behaviour expected on a system with ACPI. Should the ability to specify regulators be added in future revisions of ACPI then once we have support for ACPI mappings in the kernel the same assumptions will apply. It is also likely that systems will default to a mode of operation which does not require any interpretation of these mappings in order to be compatible with existing operating system releases so it should remain safe to make these assumptions even if the mappings exist but are not supported by the kernel.

commit b731f311 upstream. turbostat's Makefile puts arch/x86/include/uapi/ in the include path, so that it can include <asm/msr.h> from it. It isn't in general safe to include even uapi headers directly from the kernel tree without processing them through scripts/headers_install.sh, but asm/msr.h happens to work. However, that include path can break with some versions of system headers, by overriding some system headers with the unprocessed versions directly from the kernel source. For instance: In file included from /build/x86-generic/usr/include/bits/sigcontext.h:28:0, from /build/x86-generic/usr/include/signal.h:339, from /build/x86-generic/usr/include/sys/wait.h:31, from turbostat.c:27: ../../../../arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/sigcontext.h:4:28: fatal error: linux/compiler.h: No such file or directory This occurs because the system bits/sigcontext.h on that build system includes <asm/sigcontext.h>, and asm/sigcontext.h in the kernel source includes <linux/compiler.h>, which scripts/headers_install.sh would have filtered out. Since turbostat really only wants a single header, just include that one header rather than putting an entire directory of kernel headers on the include path. In the process, switch from msr.h to msr-index.h, since turbostat just wants the MSR numbers. Signed-off-by:

The bug was introduced by commit 49e22585 ("slub: per cpu cache for partial pages"). We should use page->pages instead of page->pobjects when calculating the number of cpu partial slabs. This also fixes the mapping of slabs and nodes. As there's no variable storing the number of total/active objects in cpu partial slabs, and we don't have user interfaces requiring those statistics, I just add WARN_ON for those cases. Acked-by:

commit a1c3bfb2 upstream. 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. Signed-off-by:

commit a804552b upstream. Tejun reported stuttering and latency spikes on a system where random tasks would enter direct reclaim and get stuck on dirty pages. Around 50% of memory was occupied by tmpfs backed by an SSD, and another disk (rotating) was reading and writing at max speed to shrink a partition. : The problem was pretty ridiculous. It's a 8gig machine w/ one ssd and 10k : rpm harddrive and I could reliably reproduce constant stuttering every : several seconds for as long as buffered IO was going on on the hard drive : either with tmpfs occupying somewhere above 4gig or a test program which : allocates about the same amount of anon memory. Although swap usage was : zero, turning off swap also made the problem go away too. : : The trigger conditions seem quite plausible - high anon memory usage w/ : heavy buffered IO and swap configured - and it's highly likely that this : is happening in the wild too. (this can happen with copying large files : to usb sticks too, right?) This patch (of 2): The dirty_balance_reserve is an approximation of the fraction of free pages that the page allocator does not make available for page cache allocations. As a result, it has to be taken into account when calculating the amount of "dirtyable memory", the baseline to which dirty_background_ratio and dirty_ratio are applied. However, currently the reserve is subtracted from the sum of free and reclaimable pages, which is non-sensical and leads to erroneous results when the system is dominated by unreclaimable pages and the dirty_balance_reserve is bigger than free+reclaimable. In that case, at least the already allocated cache should be considered dirtyable. Fix the calculation by subtracting the reserve from the amount of free pages, then adding the reclaimable pages on top. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix CONFIG_HIGHMEM build] Signed-off-by:

commit 54b9dd14 upstream. After thp split in hwpoison_user_mappings(), we hold page lock on the raw error page only between try_to_unmap, hence we are in danger of race condition.

This strange page fault is trying to access to address 0x20 and I'm not sure why qemu-kvm does this, but anyway as a result the SIGSEGV makes qemu-kvm exit and on the way we catch the bad page bug/warning because we try to free a locked page (which was the former head page.) To fix this, this patch suggests to shift page lock from head page to tail page just after thp split. SIGSEGV still happens, but it affects only error affected VMs, not a whole system. Signed-off-by:

commit 06bdadd7 upstream. audit_syscall_exit() saves a result of regs_return_value() in intermediate "int" variable and passes it to __audit_syscall_exit(), which expects its second argument as a "long" value. This will result in truncating the value returned by a system call and making a wrong audit record. I don't know why gcc compiler doesn't complain about this, but anyway it causes a problem at runtime on arm64 (and probably most 64-bit archs). Signed-off-by:

commit e789e561 upstream. When the audit queue overflows and times out (audit_backlog_wait_time), the audit queue overflow timeout is set to zero. Once the audit queue overflow timeout condition recovers, the timeout should be reset to the original value. See also: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/9/2/473Signed-off-by:

commit 28a625cb upstream. Having this struct in module memory could Oops when if the module is unloaded while the buffer still persists in a pipe. Since sock_pipe_buf_ops is essentially the same as fuse_dev_pipe_buf_steal merge them into nosteal_pipe_buf_ops (this is the same as default_pipe_buf_ops except stealing the page from the buffer is not allowed).

commit 765ee51f upstream. This reverts commit 26abfeed. In the eisa_probe() force_probe path, if we were unable to request slot resources (e.g., [io 0x800-0x8ff]), we skipped the slot with "Cannot allocate resource for EISA slot %d" before reading the EISA signature in eisa_init_device(). Commit 26abfeed moved eisa_init_device() earlier, so we tried to read the EISA signature before requesting the slot resources, and this caused hangs during boot.

commit 08336fd2 upstream. dma_pte_free_level() has an off-by-one error when checking whether a pte is completely covered by a range. Take for example the case of attempting to free pfn 0x0 - 0x1ff, ie. 512 entries covering the first 2M superpage. The level_size() is 0x200 and we test: static void dma_pte_free_level(... ... if (!(0 > 0 || 0x1ff < 0 + 0x200)) { ... } Clearly the 2nd test is true, which means we fail to take the branch to clear and free the pagetable entry. As a result, we're leaking pagetables and failing to install new pages over the range. This was found with a PCI device assigned to a QEMU guest using vfio-pci without a VGA device present. The first 1M of guest address space is mapped with various combinations of 4K pages, but eventually the range is entirely freed and replaced with a 2M contiguous mapping. intel-iommu errors out with something like: ERROR: DMA PTE for vPFN 0x0 already set (to 5c2b8003 not 849c00083) In this case 5c2b8003 is the pointer to the previous leaf page that was neither freed nor cleared and 849c00083 is the superpage entry that we're trying to replace it with.
