Pull audit cleanup from Paul Moore: "A week later than I had hoped, but as promised, here is the audit uninline-fix we talked about during the last audit pull request. The patch is slightly different than what we originally discussed as it made more sense to keep the audit_signal_info() function in auditsc.c rather than move it and bunch of other related variables/definitions into audit.c/audit.h. At some point in the future I need to look at how the audit code is organized across kernel/audit*, I suspect we could do things a bit better, but it doesn't seem like a -rc release is a good place for that ;) Regardless, this patch passes our tests without problem and looks good for v4.11" * 'stable-4.11' of git://git.infradead.org/users/pcmoore/audit: audit: move audit_signal_info() into kernel/auditsc.c

We currently have 2 specific WQ_RECLAIM workqueues in the mm code. vmstat_wq for updating pcp stats and lru_add_drain_wq dedicated to drain per cpu lru caches. This seems more than necessary because both can run on a single WQ. Both do not block on locks requiring a memory allocation nor perform any allocations themselves. We will save one rescuer thread this way. On the other hand drain_all_pages() queues work on the system wq which doesn't have rescuer and so this depend on memory allocation (when all workers are stuck allocating and new ones cannot be created). Initially we thought this would be more of a theoretical problem but Hugh Dickins has reported: : 4.11-rc has been giving me hangs after hours of swapping load. At : first they looked like memory leaks ("fork: Cannot allocate memory"); : but for no good reason I happened to do "cat /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh" : before looking at /proc/meminfo one time, and the stat_refresh stuck : in D state, waiting for completion of flush_work like many kworkers. : kthreadd waiting for completion of flush_work in drain_all_pages(). This worker should be using WQ_RECLAIM as well in order to guarantee a forward progress. We can reuse the same one as for lru draining and vmstat.

While running generic/340 in my test setup I hit the following race. It can happen with kernels that support FS DAX PMDs, so v4.10 thru v4.11-rc5. Thread 1 Thread 2 -------- -------- dax_iomap_pmd_fault() grab_mapping_entry() spin_lock_irq() get_unlocked_mapping_entry() 'entry' is NULL, can't call lock_slot() spin_unlock_irq() radix_tree_preload() dax_iomap_pmd_fault() grab_mapping_entry() spin_lock_irq() get_unlocked_mapping_entry() ... lock_slot() spin_unlock_irq() dax_pmd_insert_mapping() <inserts a PMD mapping> spin_lock_irq() __radix_tree_insert() fails with -EEXIST <fall back to 4k fault, and die horribly when inserting a 4k entry where a PMD exists> The issue is that we have to drop mapping->tree_lock while calling radix_tree_preload(), but since we didn't have a radix tree entry to lock (unlike in the pmd_downgrade case) we have no protection against Thread 2 coming along and inserting a PMD at the same index. For 4k entries we handled this with a special-case response to -EEXIST coming from the __radix_tree_insert(), but this doesn't save us for PMDs because the -EEXIST case can also mean that we collided with a 4k entry in the radix tree at a different index, but one that is covered by our PMD range. So, correctly handle both the 4k and 2M collision cases by explicitly re-checking the radix tree for an entry at our index once we reacquire mapping->tree_lock. This patch has made it through a clean xfstests run with the current v4.11-rc5 based linux/master, and it also ran generic/340 500 times in a loop. It used to fail within the first 10 iterations.

In PT_SEIZED + LISTEN mode STOP/CONT signals cause a wakeup against __TASK_TRACED. If this races with the ptrace_unfreeze_traced at the end of a PTRACE_LISTEN, this can wake the task /after/ the check against __TASK_TRACED, but before the reset of state to TASK_TRACED. This causes it to instead clobber TASK_WAKING, allowing a subsequent wakeup against TRACED while the task is still on the rq wake_list, corrupting it. Oleg said: "The kernel can crash or this can lead to other hard-to-debug problems. In short, "task->state = TASK_TRACED" in ptrace_unfreeze_traced() assumes that nobody else can wake it up, but PTRACE_LISTEN breaks the contract. Obviusly it is very wrong to manipulate task->state if this task is already running, or WAKING, or it sleeps again" [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Fixes: 9899d11f ("ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race with SIGKILL") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/xm26y3vfhmkp.fsf_-_@bsegall-linux.mtv.corp.google.comSigned-off-by: Ben Segall <bsegall@google.com> Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When __{start,end}_ro_after_init is referenced from C code, we run into the following build errors on blackfin: kernel/extable.c:169: undefined reference to `__start_ro_after_init' kernel/extable.c:169: undefined reference to `__end_ro_after_init' The build error is due to the fact that blackfin is one of the few arches that prepends an underscore '_' to all symbols defined in C. Fix this by wrapping __{start,end}_ro_after_init in vmlinux.lds.h with VMLINUX_SYMBOL(), which adds the necessary prefix for arches that have HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.

fdinfo for userfault file descriptor reports UFFD_API_FEATURES. Up until recently, the UFFD_API_FEATURES was defined as 0, therefore corresponding field in fdinfo always contained zero. Now, with introduction of several additional features, UFFD_API_FEATURES is not longer 0 and it seems better to report actual features requested for the userfaultfd object described by the fdinfo. First, the applications that were using userfault will still see zero at the features field in fdinfo. Next, reporting actual features rather than available features, gives clear indication of what userfault features are used by an application.

Doug Smythies reports oops with KSM in this backtrace, I've been seeing the same: page_vma_mapped_walk+0xe6/0x5b0 page_referenced_one+0x91/0x1a0 rmap_walk_ksm+0x100/0x190 rmap_walk+0x4f/0x60 page_referenced+0x149/0x170 shrink_active_list+0x1c2/0x430 shrink_node_memcg+0x67a/0x7a0 shrink_node+0xe1/0x320 kswapd+0x34b/0x720 Just as observed in commit 4b0ece6f ("mm: migrate: fix remove_migration_pte() for ksm pages"), you cannot use page->index calculations on ksm pages. page_vma_mapped_walk() is relying on __vma_address(), where a ksm page can lead it off the end of the page table, and into whatever nonsense is in the next page, ending as an oops inside check_pte()'s pte_page(). KSM tells page_vma_mapped_walk() exactly where to look for the page, it does not need any page->index calculation: and that's so also for all the normal and file and anon pages - just not for THPs and their subpages. Get out early in most cases: instead of a PageKsm test, move down the earlier not-THP-page test, as suggested by Kirill. I'm also slightly worried that this loop can stray into other vmas, so added a vm_end test to prevent surprises; though I have not imagined anything worse than a very contrived case, in which a page mlocked in the next vma might be reclaimed because it is not mlocked in this vma.

Martin Brandenburg authored
Without this fix (and another to the userspace component itself described later), the kernel will be unable to process any OrangeFS requests after the userspace component is restarted (due to a crash or at the administrator's behest). The bug here is that inside orangefs_remount, the orangefs_request_mutex is locked. When the userspace component restarts while the filesystem is mounted, it sends a ORANGEFS_DEV_REMOUNT_ALL ioctl to the device, which causes the kernel to send it a few requests aimed at synchronizing the state between the two. While this is happening the orangefs_request_mutex is locked to prevent any other requests going through. This is only half of the bugfix. The other half is in the userspace component which outright ignores(!) requests made before it considers the filesystem remounted, which is after the ioctl returns. Of course the ioctl doesn't return until after the userspace component responds to the request it ignores. The userspace component has been changed to allow ORANGEFS_VFS_OP_FEATURES regardless of the mount status. Mike Marshall says: "I've tested this patch against the fixed userspace part. This patch is real important, I hope it can make it into 4.11...

Currently the reordering SNMP counters only increase if a connection sees a higher degree then it has previously seen. It ignores if the reordering degree is not greater than the default system threshold. This significantly under-counts the number of reordering events and falsely convey that reordering is rare on the network. This patch properly and faithfully records the number of reordering events detected by the TCP stack, just like the comment says "this exciting event is worth to be remembered". Note that even so TCP still under-estimate the actual reordering events because TCP requires TS options or certain packet sequences to detect reordering (i.e. ACKing never-retransmitted sequence in recovery or disordered state).

The lost retransmit SNMP stat is under-counting retransmission that uses segment offloading. This patch fixes that so all retransmission related SNMP counters are consistent.

The rapf copy loops in the Meta usercopy code is missing some extable entries for HTP cores with unaligned access checking enabled, where faults occur on the instruction immediately after the faulting access. Add the fixup labels and extable entries for these cases so that corner case user copy failures don't cause kernel crashes.

The fixup code to rewind the source pointer in __asm_copy_from_user_{32,64}bit_rapf_loop() always rewound the source by a single unit (4 or 8 bytes), however this is insufficient if the fault didn't occur on the first load in the loop, as the source pointer will have been incremented but nothing will have been stored until all 4 register [pairs] are loaded. Read the LSM_STEP field of TXSTATUS (which is already loaded into a register), a bit like the copy_to_user versions, to determine how many iterations of MGET[DL] have taken place, all of which need rewinding.

The fixup code for the copy_to_user rapf loops reads TXStatus.LSM_STEP to decide how far to rewind the source pointer. There is a special case for the last execution of an MGETL/MGETD, since it leaves LSM_STEP=0 even though the number of MGETLs/MGETDs attempted was 4. This uses ADDZ which is conditional upon the Z condition flag, but the AND instruction which masked the TXStatus.LSM_STEP field didn't set the condition flags based on the result. Fix that now by using ANDS which does set the flags, and also marking the condition codes as clobbered by the inline assembly.

Currently we try to zero the destination for a failed read from userland in fixup code in the usercopy.c macros. The rest of the destination buffer is then zeroed from __copy_user_zeroing(), which is used for both copy_from_user() and __copy_from_user(). Unfortunately we fail to zero in the fixup code as D1Ar1 is set to 0 before the fixup code entry labels, and __copy_from_user() shouldn't even be zeroing the rest of the buffer. Move the zeroing out into copy_from_user() and rename __copy_user_zeroing() to raw_copy_from_user() since it no longer does any zeroing. This also conveniently matches the name needed for RAW_COPY_USER support in a later patch.

This patch is almost to revert commit 02f3d4ce ("sctp: Adjust PMTU updates to accomodate route invalidation."). As t->asoc can't be NULL in sctp_transport_update_pmtu, it could get sk from asoc, and no need to pass sk into that function. It is also to remove some duplicated codes from that function.

When copying to userland on Meta, if any faults are encountered immediately abort the copy instead of continuing on and repeatedly faulting, and worse potentially copying further bytes successfully to subsequent valid pages.

Fix the error checking of the alignment adjustment code in raw_copy_from_user(), which mistakenly considers it safe to skip the error check when aligning the source buffer on a 2 or 4 byte boundary. If the destination buffer was unaligned it may have started to copy using byte or word accesses, which could well be at the start of a new (valid) source page. This would result in it appearing to have copied 1 or 2 bytes at the end of the first (invalid) page rather than none at all.

Metag's lib/usercopy.c has a bunch of copy_from_user macros for larger copies between 5 and 16 bytes which are completely unused. Before fixing zeroing lets drop these macros so there is less to fix.
