Commit e872267b ("jump_table: move entries into ro_after_init region") moved the __jump_table input section into the __ro_after_init output section, but inadvertently put the macro in the wrong place in the s390 linker script. Let's fix that. Fixes: e872267b ("jump_table: move entries into ro_after_init region") Reported-by:

The __jump_table sections emitted into the core kernel and into each module consist of statically initialized references into other parts of the code, and with the exception of entries that point into init code, which are defused at post-init time, these data structures are never modified. So let's move them into the ro_after_init section, to prevent them from being corrupted inadvertently by buggy code, or deliberately by an attacker. Signed-off-by:

Jump table entries are mostly read-only, with the exception of the init and module loader code that defuses entries that point into init code when the code being referred to is freed. For robustness, it would be better to move these entries into the ro_after_init section, but clearing the 'code' member of each jump table entry referring to init code at module load time races with the module_enable_ro() call that remaps the ro_after_init section read only, so we'd like to do it earlier. So given that whether such an entry refers to init code can be decided much earlier, we can pull this check forward. Since we may still need the code entry at this point, let's switch to setting a low bit in the 'key' member just like we do to annotate the default state of a jump table entry. Signed-off-by:

Similar to the arm64 case, 64-bit x86 can benefit from using relative references rather than absolute ones when emitting struct jump_entry instances. Not only does this reduce the memory footprint of the entries themselves by 33%, it also removes the need for carrying relocation metadata on relocatable builds (i.e., for KASLR) which saves a fair chunk of .init space as well (although the savings are not as dramatic as on arm64) Signed-off-by:

In preparation of switching x86 to use place-relative references for the code, target and key members of struct jump_entry, replace direct references to the struct members with invocations of the new accessors. This will allow us to make the switch by modifying the accessors only. This incorporates a cleanup of __jump_label_transform() proposed by Peter. Signed-off-by:

Add support for R_X86_64_PC64 relocations, which operate on 64-bit quantities holding a relative symbol reference. Also remove the definition of R_X86_64_NUM: given that it is currently unused, it is unclear what the new value should be. Signed-off-by:

On a randomly chosen distro kernel build for arm64, vmlinux.o shows the following sections, containing jump label entries, and the associated RELA relocation records, respectively: ... [38088] __jump_table PROGBITS 0000000000000000 00e19f30 000000000002ea10 0000000000000000 WA 0 0 8 [38089] .rela__jump_table RELA 0000000000000000 01fd8bb0 000000000008be30 0000000000000018 I 38178 38088 8 ... In other words, we have 190 KB worth of 'struct jump_entry' instances, and 573 KB worth of RELA entries to relocate each entry's code, target and key members. This means the RELA section occupies 10% of the .init segment, and the two sections combined represent 5% of vmlinux's entire memory footprint. So let's switch from 64-bit absolute references to 32-bit relative references for the code and target field, and a 64-bit relative reference for the 'key' field (which may reside in another module or the core kernel, which may be more than 4 GB way on arm64 when running with KASLR enable): this reduces the size of the __jump_table by 33%, and gets rid of the RELA section entirely.

To reduce the size taken up by absolute references in jump label entries themselves and the associated relocation records in the .init segment, add support for emitting them as relative references instead. Note that this requires some extra care in the sorting routine, given that the offsets change when entries are moved around in the jump_entry table. Signed-off-by:

Klaus Kusche reported that the I/O busy time in /proc/diskstats was not updating properly on 4.18. This is because we started using ktime to track elapsed time, and we convert nanoseconds to jiffies when we update the partition counter. However, this gets rounded down, so any I/Os that take less than a jiffy are not accounted for. Previously in this case, the value of jiffies would sometimes increment while we were doing I/O, so at least some I/Os were accounted for. Let's convert the stats to use nanoseconds internally. We still report milliseconds as before, now more accurately than ever. The value is still truncated to 32 bits for backwards compatibility.

One important change, not related to nested virtualization, is that the ability for the guest kernel to trap CPUID instructions (in Linux that's the ARCH_SET_CPUID arch_prctl) is now masked by default. This is because the feature is detected through an MSR; a very bad idea that Intel seems to like more and more.

We met a kernel panic when enabling earlycon, which is due to the fixmap address of earlycon is not statically setup. Currently the static fixmap setup in head_64.S only covers 2M virtual address space, while it actually could be in 4M space with different kernel configurations, e.g. when VSYSCALL emulation is disabled. So increase the static space to 4M for now by defining FIXMAP_PMD_NUM to 2, and add a build time check to ensure that the fixmap is covered by the initial static page tables.

9092c71b ("mm: use sc->priority for slab shrink targets") changed the way that the target slab pressure is calculated and made it priority-based: delta = freeable >> priority; delta *= 4; do_div(delta, shrinker->seeks); The problem is that on a default priority (which is 12) no pressure is applied at all, if the number of potentially reclaimable objects is less than 4096 (1<<12). This causes the last objects on slab caches of no longer used cgroups to (almost) never get reclaimed. It's obviously a waste of memory. It can be especially painful, if these stale objects are holding a reference to a dying cgroup. Slab LRU lists are reparented on memcg offlining, but corresponding objects are still holding a reference to the dying cgroup. If we don't scan these objects, the dying cgroup can't go away. Most likely, the parent cgroup hasn't any directly charged objects, only remaining objects from dying children cgroups. So it can easily hold a reference to hundreds of dying cgroups. If there are no big spikes in memory pressure, and new memory cgroups are created and destroyed periodically, this causes the number of dying cgroups grow steadily, causing a slow-ish and hard-to-detect memory "leak". It's not a real leak, as the memory can be eventually reclaimed, but it could not happen in a real life at all. I've seen hosts with a steadily climbing number of dying cgroups, which doesn't show any signs of a decline in months, despite the host is loaded with a production workload. It is an obvious waste of memory, and to prevent it, let's apply a minimal pressure even on small shrinker lists. E.g. if there are freeable objects, let's scan at least min(freeable, scan_batch) objects. This fix significantly improves a chance of a dying cgroup to be reclaimed, and together with some previous patches stops the steady growth of the dying cgroups number on some of our hosts.

Make the clone and fork syscalls return EAGAIN when the limit on the number of pids /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max is exceeded. Currently, when the pid_max limit is exceeded, the kernel will return ENOSPC from the fork and clone syscalls. This is contrary to the documented behaviour, which explicitly calls out the pid_max case as one where EAGAIN should be returned. It also leads to really confusing error messages in userspace programs which will complain about a lack of disk space when they fail to create processes/threads for this reason. This error is being returned because alloc_pid() uses the idr api to find a new pid; when there are none available, idr_alloc_cyclic() returns -ENOSPC, and this is being propagated back to userspace. This behaviour has been broken before, and was explicitly fixed in commit 35f71bc0 ("fork: report pid reservation failure properly"), so I think -EAGAIN is definitely the right thing to return in this case. The current behaviour change dates from commit 95846ecf ("pid: replace pid bitmap implementation with IDR AIP") and was I believe unintentional. This patch has no impact on the case where allocating a pid fails because the child reaper for the namespace is dead; that case will still return -ENOMEM.

This reverts commit 11a6fc3d. UBIFS wants to assert that xattr operations are only issued on files with positive link count. The said patch made this operations return -ENOENT for unlinked files such that the asserts will no longer trigger. This was wrong since xattr operations are perfectly fine on unlinked files. Instead the assertions need to be fixed/removed. Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Fixes: 11a6fc3d ("ubifs: xattr: Don't operate on deleted inodes") Reported-by:

The requested device name can be NULL or an empty string. Check for that and refuse to continue. UBIFS has to do this manually since we cannot use mount_bdev(), which checks for this condition.

The handlers of IOCTLs in kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl() are expected to set their return value in "r" local var and break out of switch block when they encounter some error. This is because vcpu_load() is called before the switch block which have a proper cleanup of vcpu_put() afterwards. However, KVM_{GET,SET}_NESTED_STATE IOCTLs handlers just return immediately on error without performing above mentioned cleanup. Thus, change these handlers to behave as expected.

Because CRAT_CU_FLAGS_IOMMU_PRESENT was not set in some BIOS crat, we need to workaround this. For future compatibility, we also overwrite the bit in capability according to the value of needs_iommu_device. Acked-by:
