      management routines by freeing all memory allocated while it was active.
      
      However SLsmg_reinit_smg() maybe be called by another thread.
      
      SLsmg_reinit_smg() will free the same memory accessed by
      SLsmg_reset_smg(), thus it results in a double free.
      
      SLsmg_reinit_smg() is called already protected by ui__lock, so we fix
      the problem by adding pthread_mutex_trylock of ui__lock when calling
      SLsmg_reset_smg().

      perf pmu: Fix alias events list · e0257a01
      John Garry authored
      Commit 0e0ae874 ("perf list: Display hybrid PMU events with cpu
      type") changes the event list for uncore PMUs or arm64 heterogeneous CPU
      systems, such that duplicate aliases are incorrectly listed per PMU
      (which they should not be), like:
      
        # perf list
        ...
        unc_cbo_cache_lookup.any_es
        [Unit: uncore_cbox L3 Lookup any request that access cache and found
        line in E or S-state]
        unc_cbo_cache_lookup.any_es
        [Unit: uncore_cbox L3 Lookup any request that access cache and found
        line in E or S-state]
        unc_cbo_cache_lookup.any_i
        [Unit: uncore_cbox L3 Lookup any request that access cache and found
        line in I-state]
        unc_cbo_cache_lookup.any_i
        [Unit: uncore_cbox L3 Lookup any request that access cache and found
        line in I-state]
        ...
      
      Notice how the events are listed twice.
      
      The named commit changed how we remove duplicate events, in that events
      for different PMUs are not treated as duplicates. I suppose this is to
      handle how "Each hybrid pmu event has been assigned with a pmu name".
      
      Fix PMU alias listing by restoring behaviour to remove duplicates for
      non-hybrid PMUs.

      mm: vmscan: reduce throttling due to a failure to make progress -fix · 80082938
      Mel Gorman authored
      Hugh Dickins reported the following
      
      	My tmpfs swapping load (tweaked to use huge pages more heavily
      	than in real life) is far from being a realistic load: but it was
      	notably slowed down by your throttling mods in 5.16-rc, and this
      	patch makes it well again - thanks.
      
      	But: it very quickly hit NULL pointer until I changed that last
      	line to
      
              if (first_pgdat)
                      consider_reclaim_throttle(first_pgdat, sc);
      
      The likely issue is that huge pages are a major component of the test
      workload.  When this is the case, first_pgdat may never get set if
      compaction is ready to continue due to this check
      
              if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_COMPACTION) &&
                  sc->order > PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER &&
                  compaction_ready(zone, sc)) {
                      sc->compaction_ready = true;
                      continue;
              }
      
      If this was true for every zone in the zonelist, first_pgdat would never
      get set resulting in a NULL pointer exception.

      mm: vmscan: Reduce throttling due to a failure to make progress · 1b4e3f26
      Mel Gorman authored
      Mike Galbraith, Alexey Avramov and Darrick Wong all reported similar
      problems due to reclaim throttling for excessive lengths of time.  In
      Alexey's case, a memory hog that should go OOM quickly stalls for
      several minutes before stalling.  In Mike and Darrick's cases, a small
      memcg environment stalled excessively even though the system had enough
      memory overall.
      
      Commit 69392a40 ("mm/vmscan: throttle reclaim when no progress is
      being made") introduced the problem although commit a19594ca
      ("mm/vmscan: increase the timeout if page reclaim is not making
      progress") made it worse.  Systems at or near an OOM state that cannot
      be recovered must reach OOM quickly and memcg should kill tasks if a
      memcg is near OOM.
      
      To address this, only stall for the first zone in the zonelist, reduce
      the timeout to 1 tick for VMSCAN_THROTTLE_NOPROGRESS and only stall if
      the scan control nr_reclaimed is 0, kswapd is still active and there
      were excessive pages pending for writeback.  If kswapd has stopped
      reclaiming due to excessive failures, do not stall at all so that OOM
      triggers relatively quickly.  Similarly, if an LRU is simply congested,
      only lightly throttle similar to NOPROGRESS.
      
      Alexey's original case was the most straight forward
      
      	for i in {1..3}; do tail /dev/zero; done
      
      On vanilla 5.16-rc1, this test stalled heavily, after the patch the test
      completes in a few seconds similar to 5.15.
      
      Alexey's second test case added watching a youtube video while tail runs
      10 times.  On 5.15, playback only jitters slightly, 5.16-rc1 stalls a
      lot with lots of frames missing and numerous audio glitches.  With this
      patch applies, the video plays similarly to 5.15.

      mm/damon/dbgfs: fix 'struct pid' leaks in 'dbgfs_target_ids_write()' · ebb3f994
      SeongJae Park authored
      DAMON debugfs interface increases the reference counts of 'struct pid's
      for targets from the 'target_ids' file write callback
      ('dbgfs_target_ids_write()'), but decreases the counts only in DAMON
      monitoring termination callback ('dbgfs_before_terminate()').
      
      Therefore, when 'target_ids' file is repeatedly written without DAMON
      monitoring start/termination, the reference count is not decreased and
      therefore memory for the 'struct pid' cannot be freed.  This commit
      fixes this issue by decreasing the reference counts when 'target_ids' is
      written.

      userfaultfd/selftests: fix hugetlb area allocations · f5c73297
      Mike Kravetz authored
      Currently, userfaultfd selftest for hugetlb as run from run_vmtests.sh
      or any environment where there are 'just enough' hugetlb pages will
      always fail with:
      
        testing events (fork, remap, remove):
      		ERROR: UFFDIO_COPY error: -12 (errno=12, line=616)
      
      The ENOMEM error code implies there are not enough hugetlb pages.
      However, there are free hugetlb pages but they are all reserved.  There
      is a basic problem with the way the test allocates hugetlb pages which
      has existed since the test was originally written.
      
      Due to the way 'cleanup' was done between different phases of the test,
      this issue was masked until recently.  The issue was uncovered by commit
      8ba6e864 ("userfaultfd/selftests: reinitialize test context in each
      test").
      
      For the hugetlb test, src and dst areas are allocated as PRIVATE
      mappings of a hugetlb file.  This means that at mmap time, pages are
      reserved for the src and dst areas.  At the start of event testing (and
      other tests) the src area is populated which results in allocation of
      huge pages to fill the area and consumption of reserves associated with
      the area.  Then, a child is forked to fault in the dst area.  Note that
      the dst area was allocated in the parent and hence the parent owns the
      reserves associated with the mapping.  The child has normal access to
      the dst area, but can not use the reserves created/owned by the parent.
      Thus, if there are no other huge pages available allocation of a page
      for the dst by the child will fail.
      
      Fix by not creating reserves for the dst area.  In this way the child
      can use free (non-reserved) pages.
      
      Also, MAP_PRIVATE of a file only makes sense if you are interested in
      the contents of the file before making a COW copy.  The test does not do
      this.  So, just use MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB to create an anonymous
      hugetlb mapping.  There is no need to create a hugetlb file in the
      non-shared case.

      cancel_work_sync(&dev->work), but dev->work initalization happens _after_
      input_register_device() call.
      
      So this patch moves dev->work initialization before registering input
      device

      Pull drm fixes from Dave Airlie:
       "This is a bit bigger than I'd like, however it has two weeks of amdgpu
        fixes in it, since they missed last week, which was very small.
      
        The nouveau regression is probably the biggest fix in here, and it
        needs to go into 5.15 as well, two i915 fixes, and then a scattering
        of amdgpu fixes. The biggest fix in there is for a fencing NULL
        pointer dereference, the rest are pretty minor.
      
        For the misc team, I've pulled the two misc fixes manually since I'm
        not sure what is happening at this time of year!
      
        The amdgpu maintainers have the outstanding runpm regression to fix
        still, they are just working through the last bits of it now.
      
        Summary:
      
        nouveau:
         - fencing regression fix
      
        i915:
         - Fix possible uninitialized variable
         - Fix composite fence seqno icrement on each fence creation
      
        amdgpu:
         - Fencing fix
         - XGMI fix
         - VCN regression fix
         - IP discovery regression fixes
         - Fix runpm documentation
         - Suspend/resume fixes
         - Yellow Carp display fixes
         - MCLK power management fix
         - dma-buf fix"

      This merges two fixes that haven't been sent to me yet, but I wanted to get in.
      
      One amdgpu fix, but one nouveau regression fixer.
