I noticed that the logic in the fadvise64_64 syscall is incorrect for partial pages. While first page of the region is correctly skipped if it is partial, the last page of the region is mistakenly discarded. This leads to problems for applications that read data in non-page-aligned chunks discarding already processed data between the reads. A somewhat misguided application that does something like write(XX bytes (non-page-alligned)); drop the data it just wrote; repeat gets a significant penalty in performance as a result.

This patch is based on https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/574623/. Tejun submitted commit 23d11a58 ("workqueue: skip flush dependency checks for legacy workqueues") for the legacy create*_workqueue() interface. But some workq created by alloc_workqueue still reports warning on memory reclaim, e.g nvme_workq with flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM set: workqueue: WQ_MEM_RECLAIM nvme:nvme_reset_work is flushing !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM events:lru_add_drain_per_cpu ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 6 at SoC/linux/kernel/workqueue.c:2448 check_flush_dependency+0xb4/0x10c ... check_flush_dependency+0xb4/0x10c flush_work+0x54/0x140 lru_add_drain_all+0x138/0x188 migrate_prep+0xc/0x18 alloc_contig_range+0xf4/0x350 cma_alloc+0xec/0x1e4 dma_alloc_from_contiguous+0x38/0x40 __dma_alloc+0x74/0x25c nvme_alloc_queue+0xcc/0x36c nvme_reset_work+0x5c4/0xda8 process_one_work+0x128/0x2ec worker_thread+0x58/0x434 kthread+0xd4/0xe8 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x50 That's because lru_add_drain_all() will schedule the drain work on system_wq, whose flag is set to 0, !WQ_MEM_RECLAIM.

Christian Borntraeger reported a kernel panic after corrupt page counts, and it turned out to be a regression introduced with commit aa88b68c ("thp: keep huge zero page pinned until tlb flush"), at least on s390. put_huge_zero_page() was moved over from zap_huge_pmd() to release_pages(), and it was replaced by tlb_remove_page(). However, release_pages() might not always be triggered by (the arch-specific) tlb_remove_page(). On s390 we call free_page_and_swap_cache() from tlb_remove_page(), and not tlb_flush_mmu() -> free_pages_and_swap_cache() like the generic version, because we don't use the MMU-gather logic. Although both functions have very similar names, they are doing very unsimilar things, in particular free_page_xxx is just doing a put_page(), while free_pages_xxx calls release_pages(). This of course results in very harmful put_page()s on the huge zero page, on architectures where tlb_remove_page() is implemented in this way. It seems to affect only s390 and sh, but sh doesn't have THP support, so the problem (currently) probably only exists on s390.

Mike Kravetz authored
When creating a private mapping of a hugetlbfs file, it is possible to unmap pages via ftruncate or fallocate hole punch. If subsequent faults repopulate these mappings, the reserve counts will go negative. This is because the code currently assumes all faults to private mappings will consume reserves. The problem can be recreated as follows: - mmap(MAP_PRIVATE) a file in hugetlbfs filesystem - write fault in pages in the mapping - fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) some pages in the mapping - write fault in pages in the hole This will result in negative huge page reserve counts and negative subpool usage counts for the hugetlbfs. Note that this can also be recreated with ftruncate, but fallocate is more straight forward. This patch modifies the routines vma_needs_reserves and vma_has_reserves to examine the reserve map associated with private mappings similar to that for shared mappings. However, the reserve map semantics for private and shared mappings are very different. This results in subtly different code that is explained in the comments.

open("/foo/no_such_file", O_RDONLY | O_CREAT) on should fail with EACCES when /foo is not writable; failing with ENOENT is obviously wrong.

Ascend-to-parent logics in d_walk() depends on all encountered child dentries not getting freed without an RCU delay. Unfortunately, in quite a few cases it is not true, with hard-to-hit oopsable race as the result. Fortunately, the fix is simiple; right now the rule is "if it ever been hashed, freeing must be delayed" and changing it to "if it ever had a parent, freeing must be delayed" closes that hole and covers all cases the old rule used to cover. Moreover, pipes and sockets remain _not_ covered, so we do not introduce RCU delay in the cases which are the reason for having that delay conditional in the first place.

MNT_LOCKED implies on a child mount implies the child is locked to the parent. So while looping through the children the children should be tested (not their parent). Typically an unshare of a mount namespace locks all mounts together making both the parent and the slave as locked but there are a few corner cases where other things work.

The /dev/ptmx device node is changed to lookup the directory entry "pts" in the same directory as the /dev/ptmx device node was opened in. If there is a "pts" entry and that entry is a devpts filesystem /dev/ptmx uses that filesystem. Otherwise the open of /dev/ptmx fails. The DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES configuration option is removed, so that userspace can now safely depend on each mount of devpts creating a new instance of the filesystem. Each mount of devpts is now a separate and equal filesystem. Reserved ttys are now available to all instances of devpts where the mounter is in the initial mount namespace. A new vfs helper path_pts is introduced that finds a directory entry named "pts" in the directory of the passed in path, and changes the passed in path to point to it. The helper path_pts uses a function path_parent_directory that was factored out of follow_dotdot. In the implementation of devpts: - devpts_mnt is killed as it is no longer meaningful if all mounts of devpts are equal. - pts_sb_from_inode is replaced by just inode->i_sb as all cached inodes in the tty layer are now from the devpts filesystem. - devpts_add_ref is rolled into the new function devpts_ptmx. And the unnecessary inode hold is removed. - devpts_del_ref is renamed devpts_release and reduced to just a deacrivate_super. - The newinstance mount option continues to be accepted but is now ignored. In devpts_fs.h definitions for when !CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS are removed as they are never used. Documentation/filesystems/devices.txt is updated to describe the current situation. This has been verified to work properly on openwrt-15.05, centos5, centos6, centos7, debian-6.0.2, debian-7.9, debian-8.2, ubuntu-14.04.3, ubuntu-15.10, fedora23, magia-5, mint-17.3, opensuse-42.1, slackware-14.1, gentoo-20151225 (13.0?), archlinux-2015-12-01. With the caveat that on centos6 and on slackware-14.1 that there wind up being two instances of the devpts filesystem mounted on /dev/pts, the lower copy does not end up getting used.

Syscalls should never crash programs, but instead return EFAULT. The IIR register contains the executed instruction, which disassebles into "ldw 0(sr3,r5),r9". This load-word instruction is part of __get_user() which tried to read the word at %r5/IOR (0xfa6f7fff). This means the unaligned handler jumped in. The unaligned handler is able to emulate all ldw instructions, but it fails if it fails to read the source e.g. because of page fault. The following program reproduces the problem: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/mman.h> int main(void) { /* allocate 8k */ char *ptr = mmap(NULL, 2*4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); /* free second half (upper 4k) and make it invalid. */ munmap(ptr+4096, 4096); /* syscall where first int is unaligned and clobbers into invalid memory region */ /* syscall should return EFAULT */ return syscall(__NR_clock_adjtime, 0, ptr+4095); } To fix this issue we simply need to check if the faulting instruction address is in the exception fixup table when the unaligned handler failed. If it is, call the fixup routine instead of crashing. While looking at the unaligned handler I found another issue as well: The target register should not be modified if the handler was unsuccessful.

It's an analogue of commit 7500c38a (fix the braino in "namei: massage lookup_slow() to be usable by lookup_one_len_unlocked()"). The same problem (->lookup()-returned unhashed negative dentry just might be an autofs one with ->d_manage() that would wait until the daemon makes it positive) applies in do_last() - we need to do follow_managed() first. Fortunately, remaining callers of follow_managed() are OK - only autofs has that weirdness (negative dentry that does not mean an instant -ENOENT)) and autofs never has its negative dentries hashed, so we can't pick one from a dcache lookup. ->d_manage() is a bloody mess ;-/ Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.6 Spotted-by: Ian Kent <raven@themaw.net> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

This patch fixes backtrace on PA-RISC There were several problems: 1) The code that decodes instructions handles instructions that subtract from the stack pointer incorrectly. If the instruction subtracts the number X from the stack pointer the code increases the frame size by (0x100000000-X). This results in invalid accesses to memory and recursive page faults. 2) Because gcc reorders blocks, handling instructions that subtract from the frame pointer is incorrect. For example, this function int f(int a) { if (__builtin_expect(a, 1)) return a; g(); return a; } is compiled in such a way, that the code that decreases the stack pointer for the first "return a" is placed before the code for "g" call. If we recognize this decrement, we mistakenly believe that the frame size for the "g" call is zero. To fix problems 1) and 2), the patch doesn't recognize instructions that decrease the stack pointer at all. To further safeguard the unwind code against nonsense values, we don't allow frame size larger than Total_frame_size. 3) The backtrace is not locked. If stack dump races with module unload, invalid table can be accessed. This patch adds a spinlock when processing module tables. Note, that for correct backtrace, you need recent binutils. Binutils 2.18 from Debian 5 produce garbage unwind tables. Binutils 2.21 work better (it sometimes forgets function frames, but at least it doesn't generate garbage).

EOPENSTALE occuring at the last component of a trailing symlink ends up with do_last() retrying its lookup. After the symlink body has been discarded. The thing is, all this retry_lookup logics in there is not needed at all - the upper layers will do the right thing if we simply return that -EOPENSTALE as we would with any other error. Trying to microoptimize in do_last() is a lot of headache for no good reason.

The optimistic fast path may use cpuset_current_mems_allowed instead of of a NULL nodemask supplied by the caller for cpuset allocations. The preferred zone is calculated on this basis for statistic purposes and as a starting point in the zonelist iterator. However, if the context can ignore memory policies due to being atomic or being able to ignore watermarks then the starting point in the zonelist iterator is no longer correct. This patch resets the zonelist iterator in the allocator slowpath if the context can ignore memory policies. This will alter the zone used for statistics but only after it is known that it makes sense for that context. Resetting it before entering the slowpath would potentially allow an ALLOC_CPUSET allocation to be accounted for against the wrong zone. Note that while nodemask is not explicitly set to the original nodemask, it would only have been overwritten if cpuset_enabled() and it was reset before the slowpath was entered.

In DEBUG_VM kernel, we can hit infinite loop for order == 0 in buffered_rmqueue() when check_new_pcp() returns 1, because the bad page is never removed from the pcp list. Fix this by removing the page before retrying. Also we don't need to check if page is non-NULL, because we simply grab it from the list which was just tested for being non-empty.
