For systems configured to always try hard to allocate transparent hugepages (thp defrag setting of "always") or for memory that has been explicitly madvised to MADV_HUGEPAGE, it is often better to fallback to remote memory to allocate the hugepage if the local allocation fails first. The point is to allow the initial call to __alloc_pages_node() to attempt to defragment local memory to make a hugepage available, if possible, rather than immediately fallback to remote memory. Local hugepages will always have a better access latency than remote (huge)pages, so an attempt to make a hugepage available locally is always preferred. If memory compaction cannot be successful locally, however, it is likely better to fallback to remote memory. This could take on two forms: either allow immediate fallback to remote memory or do per-zone watermark checks. It would be possible to fallback only when per-zone watermarks fail for order-0 memory, since that would require local reclaim for all subsequent faults so remote huge allocation is likely better than thrashing the local zone for large workloads. In this case, it is assumed that because the system is configured to try hard to allocate hugepages or the vma is advised to explicitly want to try hard for hugepages that remote allocation is better when local allocation and memory compaction have both failed.

Memory compaction has a couple significant drawbacks as the allocation order increases, specifically: - isolate_freepages() is responsible for finding free pages to use as migration targets and is implemented as a linear scan of memory starting at the end of a zone, - failing order-0 watermark checks in memory compaction does not account for how far below the watermarks the zone actually is: to enable migration, there must be *some* free memory available. Per the above, watermarks are not always suffficient if isolate_freepages() cannot find the free memory but it could require hundreds of MBs of reclaim to even reach this threshold (read: potentially very expensive reclaim with no indication compaction can be successful), and - if compaction at this order has failed recently so that it does not even run as a result of deferred compaction, looping through reclaim can often be pointless. For hugepage allocations, these are quite substantial drawbacks because these are very high order allocations (order-9 on x86) and falling back to doing reclaim can potentially be *very* expensive without any indication that compaction would even be successful. Reclaim itself is unlikely to free entire pageblocks and certainly no reliance should be put on it to do so in isolation (recall lumpy reclaim). This means we should avoid reclaim and simply fail hugepage allocation if compaction is deferred. It is also not helpful to thrash a zone by doing excessive reclaim if compaction may not be able to access that memory. If order-0 watermarks fail and the allocation order is sufficiently large, it is likely better to fail the allocation rather than thrashing the zone.

This reverts commit 92717d42. Since commit a8282608 ("Revert "mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage allocations"") is reverted in this series, it is better to restore the previous 5.2 behavior between the thp allocation and the page allocator rather than to attempt any consolidation or cleanup for a policy that is now reverted. It's less risky during an rc cycle and subsequent patches in this series further modify the same policy that the pre-5.3 behavior implements. Consolidation and cleanup can be done subsequent to a sane default page allocation strategy, so this patch reverts a cleanup done on a strategy that is now reverted and thus is the least risky option.

This reverts commit a8282608. The commit references the original intended semantic for MADV_HUGEPAGE which has subsequently taken on three unique purposes: - enables or disables thp for a range of memory depending on the system's config (is thp "enabled" set to "always" or "madvise"), - determines the synchronous compaction behavior for thp allocations at fault (is thp "defrag" set to "always", "defer+madvise", or "madvise"), and - reverts a previous MADV_NOHUGEPAGE (there is no madvise mode to only clear previous hugepage advice). These are the three purposes that currently exist in 5.2 and over the past several years that userspace has been written around. Adding a NUMA locality preference adds a fourth dimension to an already conflated advice mode. Based on the semantic that MADV_HUGEPAGE has provided over the past several years, there exist workloads that use the tunable based on these principles: specifically that the allocation should attempt to defragment a local node before falling back. It is agreed that remote hugepages typically (but not always) have a better access latency than remote native pages, although on Naples this is at parity for intersocket. The revert commit that this patch reverts allows hugepage allocation to immediately allocate remotely when local memory is fragmented. This is contrary to the semantic of MADV_HUGEPAGE over the past several years: that is, memory compaction should be attempted locally before falling back. The performance degradation of remote hugepages over local hugepages on Rome, for example, is 53.5% increased access latency. For this reason, the goal is to revert back to the 5.2 and previous behavior that would attempt local defragmentation before falling back. With the patch that is reverted by this patch, we see performance degradations at the tail because the allocator happily allocates the remote hugepage rather than even attempting to make a local hugepage available. zone_reclaim_mode is not a solution to this problem since it does not only impact hugepage allocations but rather changes the memory allocation strategy for *all* page allocations.

This reverts commit b03755ad. This is sad, and done for all the wrong reasons. Because that commit is good, and does exactly what it says: avoids a lot of small disk requests for the inode table read-ahead. However, it turns out that it causes an entirely unrelated problem: the getrandom() system call was introduced back in 2014 by commit c6e9d6f3 ("random: introduce getrandom(2) system call"), and people use it as a convenient source of good random numbers. But part of the current semantics for getrandom() is that it waits for the entropy pool to fill at least partially (unlike /dev/urandom). And at least ArchLinux apparently has a systemd that uses getrandom() at boot time, and the improvements in IO patterns means that existing installations suddenly start hanging, waiting for entropy that will never happen. It seems to be an unlucky combination of not _quite_ enough entropy, together with a particular systemd version and configuration. Lennart says that the systemd-random-seed process (which is what does this early access) is supposed to not block any other boot activity, but sadly that doesn't actually seem to be the case (possibly due bogus dependencies on cryptsetup for encrypted swapspace). The correct fix is to fix getrandom() to not block when it's not appropriate, but that fix is going to take a lot more discussion. Do we just make it act like /dev/urandom by default, and add a new flag for "wait for entropy"? Do we add a boot-time option? Or do we just limit the amount of time it will wait for entropy? So in the meantime, we do the revert to give us time to discuss the eventual fix for the fundamental problem, at which point we can re-apply the ext4 inode table access optimization.

Pull RISC-V fix from Paul Walmsley: "Last week, Palmer and I learned that there was an error in the RISC-V kernel image header format that could make it less compatible with the ARM64 kernel image header format. I had missed this error during my original reviews of the patch. The kernel image header format is an interface that impacts bootloaders, QEMU, and other user tools. Those packages must be updated to align with whatever is merged in the kernel. We would like to avoid proliferating these image formats by keeping the RISC-V header as close as possible to the existing ARM64 header. Since the arch/riscv patch that adds support for the image header was merged with our v5.3-rc1 pull request as commit 0f327f2a ("RISC-V: Add an Image header that boot loader can parse."), we think it wise to try to fix this error before v5.3 is released. The fix itself should be backwards-compatible with any project that has already merged support for premature versions of this interface. It primarily involves ensuring that the RISC-V image header has something useful in the same field as the ARM64 image header" * tag 'riscv/for-v5.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/riscv/linux: riscv: modify the Image header to improve compatibility with the ARM64 header

James Harvey reported a livelock that was introduced by commit d012a06a ("Revert "KVM: x86/mmu: Zap only the relevant pages when removing a memslot""). The livelock occurs because kvm_mmu_zap_all() as it exists today will voluntarily reschedule and drop KVM's mmu_lock, which allows other vCPUs to add shadow pages. With enough vCPUs, kvm_mmu_zap_all() can get stuck in an infinite loop as it can never zap all pages before observing lock contention or the need to reschedule. The equivalent of kvm_mmu_zap_all() that was in use at the time of the reverted commit (4e103134, "KVM: x86/mmu: Zap only the relevant pages when removing a memslot") employed a fast invalidate mechanism and was not susceptible to the above livelock. There are three ways to fix the livelock: - Reverting the revert (commit d012a06a) is not a viable option as the revert is needed to fix a regression that occurs when the guest has one or more assigned devices. It's unlikely we'll root cause the device assignment regression soon enough to fix the regression timely. - Remove the conditional reschedule from kvm_mmu_zap_all(). However, although removing the reschedule would be a smaller code change, it's less safe in the sense that the resulting kvm_mmu_zap_all() hasn't been used in the wild for flushing memslots since the fast invalidate mechanism was introduced by commit 6ca18b69 ("KVM: x86: use the fast way to invalidate all pages"), back in 2013. - Reintroduce the fast invalidate mechanism and use it when zapping shadow pages in response to a memslot being deleted/moved, which is what this patch does. For all intents and purposes, this is a revert of commit ea145aac ("Revert "KVM: MMU: fast invalidate all pages"") and a partial revert of commit 7390de1e ("Revert "KVM: x86: use the fast way to invalidate all pages""), i.e. restores the behavior of commit 5304b8d3 ("KVM: MMU: fast invalidate all pages") and commit 6ca18b69 ("KVM: x86: use the fast way to invalidate all pages") respectively.

Emulation of VMPTRST can incorrectly inject a page fault when passed an operand that points to an MMIO address. The page fault will use uninitialized kernel stack memory as the CR2 and error code. The right behavior would be to abort the VM with a KVM_EXIT_INTERNAL_ERROR exit to userspace; however, it is not an easy fix, so for now just ensure that the error code and CR2 are zero.

Part of the intention during the definition of the RISC-V kernel image header was to lay the groundwork for a future merge with the ARM64 image header. One error during my original review was not noticing that the RISC-V header's "magic" field was at a different size and position than the ARM64's "magic" field. If the existing ARM64 Image header parsing code were to attempt to parse an existing RISC-V kernel image header format, it would see a magic number 0. This is undesirable, since it's our intention to align as closely as possible with the ARM64 header format. Another problem was that the original "res3" field was not being initialized correctly to zero. Address these issues by creating a 32-bit "magic2" field in the RISC-V header which matches the ARM64 "magic" field. RISC-V binaries will store "RSC\x05" in this field. The intention is that the use of the existing 64-bit "magic" field in the RISC-V header will be deprecated over time. Increment the minor version number of the file format to indicate this change, and update the documentation accordingly. Fix the assembler directives in head.S to ensure that reserved fields are properly zero-initialized.

A Mediatek based smartphone owner reports problems with USB tethering in Linux. The verbose USB listing shows a rndis_host interface pair (e0/01/03 + 10/00/00), but the driver fails to bind with [ 355.960428] usb 1-4: bad CDC descriptors The problem is a failsafe test intended to filter out ACM serial functions using the same 02/02/ff class/subclass/protocol as RNDIS. The serial functions are recognized by their non-zero bmCapabilities. No RNDIS function with non-zero bmCapabilities were known at the time this failsafe was added. But it turns out that some Wireless class RNDIS functions are using the bmCapabilities field. These functions are uniquely identified as RNDIS by their class/subclass/protocol, so the failing test can safely be disabled. The same applies to the two types of Misc class RNDIS functions. Applying the failsafe to Communication class functions only retains the original functionality, and fixes the problem for the Mediatek based smartphone. Tow examples of CDC functional descriptors with non-zero bmCapabilities from Wireless class RNDIS functions are: 0e8d:000a Mediatek Crosscall Spider X5 3G Phone CDC Header: bcdCDC 1.10 CDC ACM: bmCapabilities 0x0f connection notifications sends break line coding and serial state get/set/clear comm features CDC Union: bMasterInterface 0 bSlaveInterface 1 CDC Call Management: bmCapabilities 0x03 call management use DataInterface bDataInterface 1 and 19d2:1023 ZTE K4201-z CDC Header: bcdCDC 1.10 CDC ACM: bmCapabilities 0x02 line coding and serial state CDC Call Management: bmCapabilities 0x03 call management use DataInterface bDataInterface 1 CDC Union: bMasterInterface 0 bSlaveInterface 1 The Mediatek example is believed to apply to most smartphones with Mediatek firmware.

Currently sctp_get_port_local() returns a long which is either 0,1 or a pointer casted to long. It's neither of the callers use the return value since commit 62208f12 ("net: sctp: simplify sctp_get_port"). Now two callers are sctp_get_port and sctp_do_bind, they actually assumend a casted to an int was the same as a pointer casted to a long, and they don't save the return value just check whether it is zero or non-zero, so it would better change return type from long to int for sctp_get_port_local.

However, the secpath can also come from the Rx side, in this case it is misinterpreted for Tx offload and the packets are dropped with a "bad sa_idx" error. Fix this by using the xfrm_offload() function to test for Tx offload.

The tmio_mmc_host_probe() calls pm_runtime_set_active() to update the runtime PM status of the device, as to make it reflect the current status of the HW. This works fine for most cases, but unfortunate not for all. Especially, there is a generic problem when the device has a genpd attached and that genpd have the ->start|stop() callbacks assigned. More precisely, if the driver calls pm_runtime_set_active() during ->probe(), genpd does not get to invoke the ->start() callback for it, which means the HW isn't really fully powered on. Furthermore, in the next phase, when the device becomes runtime suspended, genpd will invoke the ->stop() callback for it, potentially leading to usage count imbalance problems, depending on what's implemented behind the callbacks of course. To fix this problem, convert to call pm_runtime_get_sync() from tmio_mmc_host_probe() rather than pm_runtime_set_active(). Additionally, to avoid bumping usage counters and unnecessary re-initializing the HW the first time the tmio driver's ->runtime_resume() callback is called, introduce a state flag to keeping track of this.

This reverts commit 7ff21319. It turns out that the above commit introduces other problems. For example, calling pm_runtime_set_active() must not be done prior calling pm_runtime_enable() as that makes it fail. This leads to additional problems, such as clock enables being wrongly balanced. Rather than fixing the problem on top, let's start over by doing a revert.

Pull btrfs fixes from David Sterba: "Here are two fixes, one of them urgent fixing a bug introduced in 5.2 and reported by many users. It took time to identify the root cause, catching the 5.3 release is higly desired also to push the fix to 5.2 stable tree. The bug is a mess up of return values after adding proper error handling and honestly the kind of bug that can cause sleeping disorders until it's caught. My appologies to everybody who was affected. Summary of what could happen: 1) either a hang when committing a transaction, if this happens there's no risk of corruption, still the hang is very inconvenient and can't be resolved without a reboot 2) writeback for some btree nodes may never be started and we end up committing a transaction without noticing that, this is really serious and that will lead to the "parent transid verify failed" messages" * tag 'for-5.3-rc8-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux: Btrfs: fix unwritten extent buffers and hangs on future writeback attempts Btrfs: fix assertion failure during fsync and use of stale transaction

If a new child cgroup is created in the frozen cgroup hierarchy (one or more of ancestor cgroups is frozen), the CGRP_FREEZE cgroup flag should be set. Otherwise if a process will be attached to the child cgroup, it won't become frozen. The problem can be reproduced with the test_cgfreezer_mkdir test.

Add a new cgroup freezer selftest, which checks that if a cgroup is frozen, their new child cgroups will properly inherit the frozen state. It creates a parent cgroup, freezes it, creates a child cgroup and populates it with a dummy process. Then it checks that both parent and child cgroup are frozen.

Pull clone3 fix from Christian Brauner: "This is a last-minute bugfix for clone3() that should go in before we release 5.3 with clone3(). clone3() did not verify that the exit_signal argument was set to a valid signal. This can be used to cause a crash by specifying a signal greater than NSIG. e.g. -1. The commit from Eugene adds a check to copy_clone_args_from_user() to verify that the exit signal is limited by CSIGNAL as with legacy clone() and that the signal is valid. With this we don't get the legacy clone behavior were an invalid signal could be handed down and would only be detected and then ignored in do_notify_parent(). Users of clone3() will now get a proper error right when they pass an invalid exit signal. Note, that this is not a change in user-visible behavior since no kernel with clone3() has been released yet" * tag 'for-linus-20190912' of gitolite.kernel.org:pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: fork: block invalid exit signals with clone3()

Previously, higher 32 bits of exit_signal fields were lost when copied to the kernel args structure (that uses int as a type for the respective field). Moreover, as Oleg has noted, exit_signal is used unchecked, so it has to be checked for sanity before use; for the legacy syscalls, applying CSIGNAL mask guarantees that it is at least non-negative; however, there's no such thing is done in clone3() code path, and that can break at least thread_group_leader. This commit adds a check to copy_clone_args_from_user() to verify that the exit signal is limited by CSIGNAL as with legacy clone() and that the signal is valid. With this we don't get the legacy clone behavior were an invalid signal could be handed down and would only be detected and ignored in do_notify_parent(). Users of clone3() will now get a proper error when they pass an invalid exit signal. Note, that this is not user-visible behavior since no kernel with clone3() has been released yet. The following program will cause a splat on a non-fixed clone3() version and will fail correctly on a fixed version: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <linux/sched.h> #include <linux/types.h> #include <sched.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/wait.h> #include <unistd.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { pid_t pid = -1; struct clone_args args = {0}; args.exit_signal = -1; pid = syscall(__NR_clone3, &args, sizeof(struct clone_args)); if (pid < 0) exit(EXIT_FAILURE); if (pid == 0) exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); wait(NULL); exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); } Fixes: 7f192e3c ("fork: add clone3") Reported-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Suggested-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Suggested-by: Dmitry V.

When the userspace program runs the KVM_S390_INTERRUPT ioctl to inject an interrupt, we convert them from the legacy struct kvm_s390_interrupt to the new struct kvm_s390_irq via the s390int_to_s390irq() function. However, this function does not take care of all types of interrupts that we can inject into the guest later (see do_inject_vcpu()). Since we do not clear out the s390irq values before calling s390int_to_s390irq(), there is a chance that we copy random data from the kernel stack which could be leaked to the userspace later. Specifically, the problem exists with the KVM_S390_INT_PFAULT_INIT interrupt: s390int_to_s390irq() does not handle it, and the function __inject_pfault_init() later copies irq->u.ext which contains the random kernel stack data. This data can then be leaked either to the guest memory in __deliver_pfault_init(), or the userspace might retrieve it directly with the KVM_S390_GET_IRQ_STATE ioctl. Fix it by handling that interrupt type in s390int_to_s390irq(), too, and by making sure that the s390irq struct is properly pre-initialized. And while we're at it, make sure that s390int_to_s390irq() now directly returns -EINVAL for unknown interrupt types, so that we immediately get a proper error code in case we add more interrupt types to do_inject_vcpu() without updating s390int_to_s390irq() sometime in the future.

However, the secpath can also come from the RX side, in this case it is misinterpreted for TX offload and the packets are dropped with a "bad sa_idx" error.
