Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a distinct type. Ref-> commit 1c8f4220 ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t") The aim is to change the return type of finish_fault() and handle_mm_fault() to vm_fault_t type. As part of that clean up return type of all other recursively called functions have been changed to vm_fault_t type. The places from where handle_mm_fault() is getting invoked will be change to vm_fault_t type but in a separate patch. vmf_error() is the newly introduce inline function in 4.17-rc6.

The font files contain bit masks for characters in the cp437 character set, and comments showing what character this is supposed to be. This only makes sense when the terminal used to view the files is set to the same codepage, but all other files in the kernel now use utf-8 encoding. This changes those comments to utf-8 as well, for consistency.

The ebcdic.c file contains tables for converting between ebcdic and PC codepage 437. I could however not identify which encoding was used for the comments. This seems to be some variation of ISO_8859-1 with non-UTF-8 escape characters. I have converted this to UTF-8 by manually removing the escape characters and then running it through recode, to get the same encoding that we use for the rest of the kernel.

Patch series "memory management documentation updates", v3. Here are several updates to the mm documentation. Aside from really minor changes in the first three patches, the updates are: * move the documentation of kstrdup and friends to "String Manipulation" section * split memory management API into a separate .rst file * adjust formating of the GFP flags description and include it in the reference documentation. This patch (of 7): The description of the strndup_user function misses '*' character at the beginning of the comment to be proper kernel-doc. Add the missing character.

A process can be killed with SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AR) when it tries to allocate a page that was just freed on the way of soft-offline. This is undesirable because soft-offline (which is about corrected error) is less aggressive than hard-offline (which is about uncorrected error), and we can make soft-offline fail and keep using the page for good reason like "system is busy." Two main changes of this patch are: - setting migrate type of the target page to MIGRATE_ISOLATE. As done in free_unref_page_commit(), this makes kernel bypass pcplist when freeing the page. So we can assume that the page is in freelist just after put_page() returns, - setting PG_hwpoison on free page under zone->lock which protects freelists, so this allows us to avoid setting PG_hwpoison on a page that is decided to be allocated soon.

Patch series "mm: soft-offline: fix race against page allocation". Xishi recently reported the issue about race on reusing the target pages of soft offlining. Discussion and analysis showed that we need make sure that setting PG_hwpoison should be done in the right place under zone->lock for soft offline. 1/2 handles free hugepage's case, and 2/2 hanldes free buddy page's case. This patch (of 2): There's a race condition between soft offline and hugetlb_fault which causes unexpected process killing and/or hugetlb allocation failure. The process killing is caused by the following flow: CPU 0 CPU 1 CPU 2 soft offline get_any_page // find the hugetlb is free mmap a hugetlb file page fault ... hugetlb_fault hugetlb_no_page alloc_huge_page // succeed soft_offline_free_page // set hwpoison flag mmap the hugetlb file page fault ... hugetlb_fault hugetlb_no_page find_lock_page return VM_FAULT_HWPOISON mm_fault_error do_sigbus // kill the process The hugetlb allocation failure comes from the following flow: CPU 0 CPU 1 mmap a hugetlb file // reserve all free page but don't fault-in soft offline get_any_page // find the hugetlb is free soft_offline_free_page // set hwpoison flag dissolve_free_huge_page // fail because all free hugepages are reserved page fault ... hugetlb_fault hugetlb_no_page alloc_huge_page ... dequeue_huge_page_node_exact // ignore hwpoisoned hugepage // and finally fail due to no-mem The root cause of this is that current soft-offline code is written based on an assumption that PageHWPoison flag should be set at first to avoid accessing the corrupted data. This makes sense for memory_failure() or hard offline, but does not for soft offline because soft offline is about corrected (not uncorrected) error and is safe from data lost. This patch changes soft offline semantics where it sets PageHWPoison flag only after containment of the error page completes successfully.

Disallows open of FIFOs or regular files not owned by the user in world writable sticky directories, unless the owner is the same as that of the directory or the file is opened without the O_CREAT flag. The purpose is to make data spoofing attacks harder. This protection can be turned on and off separately for FIFOs and regular files via sysctl, just like the symlinks/hardlinks protection. This patch is based on Openwall's "HARDEN_FIFO" feature by Solar Designer. This is a brief list of old vulnerabilities that could have been prevented by this feature, some of them even allow for privilege escalation: CVE-2000-1134 CVE-2007-3852 CVE-2008-0525 CVE-2009-0416 CVE-2011-4834 CVE-2015-1838 CVE-2015-7442 CVE-2016-7489 This list is not meant to be complete. It's difficult to track down all vulnerabilities of this kind because they were often reported without any mention of this particular attack vector. In fact, before hardlinks/symlinks restrictions, fifos/regular files weren't the favorite vehicle to exploit them.

An HFS+ filesystem can be mounted read-only without having a metadata directory, which is needed to support hardlinks. But if the catalog data is corrupted, a directory lookup may still find dentries claiming to be hardlinks. hfsplus_lookup() does check that ->hidden_dir is not NULL in such a situation, but mistakenly does so after dereferencing it for the first time. Reorder this check to prevent a crash. This happens when looking up corrupted catalog data (dentry) on a filesystem with no metadata directory (this could only ever happen on a read-only mount).

As of commit fd1102f0 ("mm: mmu_notifier fix for tlb_end_vma"), asm-generic/tlb.h now calls tlb_flush() from a static inline function, so we need to make sure that it's declared before #including the asm-generic header in the arch header.

Pull NFS client updates from Anna Schumaker: "These patches include adding async support for the v4.2 COPY operation. I think Bruce is planning to send the server patches for the next release, but I figured we could get the client side out of the way now since it's been in my tree for a while. This shouldn't cause any problems, since the server will still respond with synchronous copies even if the client requests async. Features: - Add support for asynchronous server-side COPY operations Stable bufixes: - Fix an off-by-one in bl_map_stripe() (v3.17+) - NFSv4 client live hangs after live data migration recovery (v4.9+) - xprtrdma: Fix disconnect regression (v4.18+) - Fix locking in pnfs_generic_recover_commit_reqs (v4.14+) - Fix a sleep in atomic context in nfs4_callback_sequence() (v4.9+) Other bugfixes and cleanups: - Optimizations and fixes involving NFS v4.1 / pNFS layout handling - Optimize lseek(fd, SEEK_CUR, 0) on directories to avoid locking - Immediately reschedule writeback when the server replies with an error - Fix excessive attribute revalidation in nfs_execute_ok() - Add error checking to nfs_idmap_prepare_message() - Use new vm_fault_t return type - Return a delegation when reclaiming one that the server has recalled - Referrals should inherit proto setting from parents - Make rpc_auth_create_args a const - Improvements to rpc_iostats tracking - Fix a potential reference leak when there is an error processing a callback - Fix rmdir / mkdir / rename nlink accounting - Fix updating inode change attribute - Fix error handling in nfsn4_sp4_select_mode() - Use an appropriate work queue for direct-write completion - Don't busy wait if NFSv4 session draining is interrupted" * tag 'nfs-for-4.19-1' of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/anna/linux-nfs: (54 commits) pNFS: Remove unwanted optimisation of layoutget pNFS/flexfiles: ff_layout_pg_init_read should exit on error pNFS: Treat RECALLCONFLICT like DELAY... pNFS: When updating the stateid in layoutreturn, also update the recall range NFSv4: Fix a sleep in atomic context in nfs4_callback_sequence() NFSv4: Fix locking in pnfs_generic_recover_commit_reqs NFSv4: Fix a typo in nfs4_init_channel_attrs() NFSv4: Don't busy wait if NFSv4 session draining is interrupted NFS recover from destination server reboot for copies NFS add a simple sync nfs4_proc_commit after async COPY NFS handle COPY ERR_OFFLOAD_NO_REQS NFS send OFFLOAD_CANCEL when COPY killed NFS export nfs4_async_handle_error NFS handle COPY reply CB_OFFLOAD call race NFS add support for asynchronous COPY NFS COPY xdr handle async reply NFS OFFLOAD_CANCEL xdr NFS CB_OFFLOAD xdr NFS: Use an appropriate work queue for direct-write completion NFSv4: Fix error handling in nfs4_sp4_select_mode() ...
