Nitin Gupta says: ==================== sparc64: Add 16GB hugepage support SPARC architecture supports 16G hugepages but the kernel did not support these. This patch series adds support for it and also cleanes up some page walk/alloc functions. Patch 1/3: Core changes needed to add 16G hugepage support: To map a single 16G hugepage, two PUD entries are used. Each PUD entry maps 8G portion of a 16G page. This page table encoding scheme is same as that used for hugepages at PMD level (8M, 256M and 2G pages) where each PMD entry points successively to 8M regions within a page. No page table entries below the PUD level are allocated for 16G hugepage since those are not required. TSB entries for a 16G page are created at every 4M boundary since the HUGE_TSB is used for these pages which is configured with page size of 4M. When walking page tables (on a TSB miss), bits [32:22] are transferred from vaddr to PUD to resolve addresses at 4M boundary. The resolved address mapping is then stored in HUGE_TSB. Patch 2/3: get_user_pages() etc. are used for direct IO. These functions were not aware of hugepages at the PUD level and would try to continue walking page tables beyond the PUD level. Since 16G hugepages have page tables allocated till PUD level only, these accesses would result in invalid access. This patch adds the case for PUD huge pages to these functions. Patch 3/3: Patch 1 added the case of PUD entry being huge in page table walk and alloc functions. This new case further increased nesting in these functions and made them harder to follow. This patch flattens these functions for better readability. Cc: sparclinux@vger.kernel.org Changelog v5 vs v4: - Checking at PUD level for hugepage entry during page table walk is patched out if 16GB hugepages are not being used. Changelog v4 vs v3: - Added cover letter (patch 0/4) for patch series. Changelog v3 vs v2: - Fixed email headers so the subject shows up correctly. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

get_user_pages() is used to do direct IO. It already handles the case where the address range is backed by PMD huge pages.

Mauro has gone through and fixed up a lot of top-level documentation files to make them conform to the RST format, but without moving or renaming them in any way.

Unfortunately, on some models of some architectures getting a fully seeded CRNG is extremely difficult, and so this can result in dmesg getting spammed for a surprisingly long time. This is really bad from a security perspective, and so architecture maintainers really need to do what they can to get the CRNG seeded sooner after the system is booted. However, users can't do anything actionble to address this, and spamming the kernel messages log will only just annoy people. For developers who want to work on improving this situation, CONFIG_WARN_UNSEEDED_RANDOM has been renamed to CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM. By default the kernel will always print the first use of unseeded randomness. This way, hopefully the security obsessed will be happy that there is _some_ indication when the kernel boots there may be a potential issue with that architecture or subarchitecture. To see all uses of unseeded randomness, developers can enable CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM. Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

Pull ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki: "These fix the return value of an IRQ mapping routine in the ACPI core, fix an EC driver issue causing abnormal fan behavior after system resume on some systems and add quirks for ACPI device objects that need to be treated as "always present" to work around bogus implementations of the _STA control method.

Pull power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki: "These fix a recently exposed issue in the PCI device wakeup code and one older problem related to PCI device wakeup that has been reported recently, modify one more piece of computations in intel_pstate to get rid of a rounding error, fix a possible race in the schedutil cpufreq governor, fix the device PM QoS sysfs interface to correctly handle invalid user input, fix return values of two probe routines in devfreq drivers and constify an attribute_group structure in devfreq. Specifics: - Avoid clearing the PCI PME Enable bit for devices as a result of config space restoration which confuses AML executed afterward and causes wakeup events to be lost on some systems (Rafael Wysocki). - Fix the native PCIe PME interrupts handling in the cases when the PME IRQ is set up as a system wakeup one so that runtime PM remote wakeup works as expected after system resume on systems where that happens (Rafael Wysocki). - Fix the device PM QoS sysfs interface to handle invalid user input correctly instead of using an unititialized variable value as the latency tolerance for the device at hand (Dan Carpenter). - Get rid of one more rounding error from intel_pstate computations (Srinivas Pandruvada). - Fix the schedutil cpufreq governor to prevent it from possibly accessing unititialized data structures from governor callbacks in some cases on systems when multiple CPUs share a single cpufreq policy object (Vikram Mulukutla). - Fix the return values of probe routines in two devfreq drivers (Gustavo Silva). - Constify an attribute_group structure in devfreq (Arvind Yadav)" * tag 'pm-fixes-4.13-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: PCI / PM: Fix native PME handling during system suspend/resume PCI / PM: Restore PME Enable after config space restoration cpufreq: schedutil: Fix sugov_start() versus sugov_update_shared() race PM / QoS: return -EINVAL for bogus strings cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix ratio setting for min_perf_pct PM / devfreq: constify attribute_group structures.

Using strscpy was wrong because FORTIFY_SOURCE is passing the maximum possible size of the outermost object, but strscpy defines the count parameter as the exact buffer size, so this could copy past the end of the source. This would still be wrong with the planned usage of __builtin_object_size(p, 1) for intra-object overflow checks since it's the maximum possible size of the specified object with no guarantee of it being that large. Reuse of the fortified functions like this currently makes the runtime error reporting less precise but that can be improved later on. Noticed by Dave Jones and KASAN.

If we reach the limit of modprobe_limit threads running the next request_module() call will fail. The original reason for adding a kill was to do away with possible issues with in old circumstances which would create a recursive series of request_module() calls. We can do better than just be super aggressive and reject calls once we've reached the limit by simply making pending callers wait until the threshold has been reduced, and then throttling them in, one by one. This throttling enables requests over the kmod concurrent limit to be processed once a pending request completes. Only the first item queued up to wait is woken up. The assumption here is once a task is woken it will have no other option to also kick the queue to check if there are more pending tasks -- regardless of whether or not it was successful. By throttling and processing only max kmod concurrent tasks we ensure we avoid unexpected fatal request_module() calls, and we keep memory consumption on module loading to a minimum. With x86_64 qemu, with 4 cores, 4 GiB of RAM it takes the following run time to run both tests: time ./kmod.sh -t 0008 real 0m16.366s user 0m0.883s sys 0m8.916s time ./kmod.sh -t 0009 real 0m50.803s user 0m0.791s sys 0m9.852s Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170628223155.26472-4-mcgrof@kernel.orgSigned-off-by: Luis R.
