For most cases a protection exception in the host (e.g. copy on write or dirty tracking) on the sie instruction will indicate an instruction length of 4. Turns out that there are some corner cases (e.g. runtime instrumentation) where this is not necessarily true and the ILC is unpredictable. Let's replace our 4 byte rewind_pad with 3 byte nops to prepare for all possible ILCs.

Pull pstore fix from Kees Cook: "Fix bad EFI vars iterator usage" * tag 'pstore-v4.12-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux: efi-pstore: Fix read iter after pstore API refactor

Kees Cook authored
During the internal pstore API refactoring, the EFI vars read entry was accidentally made to update a stack variable instead of the pstore private data pointer. This corrects the problem (and removes the now needless argument). Fixes: 125cc42b ("pstore: Replace arguments for read() API") Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org>

When running LDom binding/unbinding test, kernel may panic in ldmvsw_open(). It is more likely that because we're removing the ldc connection before unregistering the netdev in vsw_port_remove(), we set up a window of time where one process could be removing the device while another trying to UP the device. This also sometimes causes vio handshake error due to opening a device without closing it completely. We should unregister the netdev before we disable the "hardware".

Every address gets added with TENTATIVE flag even for the addresses with IFA_F_NODAD flag and dad-work is scheduled for them. During this DAD process we realize it's an address with NODAD and complete the process without sending any probe. However the TENTATIVE flags stays on the address for sometime enough to cause misinterpretation when we receive a NS. While processing NS, if the address has TENTATIVE flag, we mark it DADFAILED and endup with an address that was originally configured as NODAD with DADFAILED. We can't avoid scheduling dad_work for addresses with NODAD but we can avoid adding TENTATIVE flag to avoid this racy situation.

Macvlan always turns on offload features that have sofware fallback (NETIF_GSO_SOFTWARE). This allows much higher guest-guest communications over macvtap. However, macvtap does not turn on these features for vlan tagged traffic. As a result, depending on the HW that mactap is configured on, the performance of guest-guest communication over a vlan is very inconsistent. If the HW supports TSO/UFO over vlans, then the performance will be fine. If not, the the performance will suffer greatly since the VM may continue using TSO/UFO, and will force the host segment the traffic and possibly overlow the macvtap queue. This patch adds the always on offloads to vlan_features. This makes sure that any vlan tagged traffic between 2 guest will not be segmented needlessly.

Finally, OOM happens. The problem is that get_scan_count determines nr_to_scan with eligible zones so although priority drops to zero, it couldn't reclaim any pages if the LRU contains mostly ineligible pages. get_scan_count: size = lruvec_lru_size(lruvec, lru, sc->reclaim_idx); size = size >> sc->priority; Assumes sc->priority is 0 and LRU list is as follows. N-N-N-N-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H (Ie, small eligible pages are in the head of LRU but others are almost ineligible pages) In that case, size becomes 4 so VM want to scan 4 pages but 4 pages from tail of the LRU are not eligible pages. If get_scan_count counts skipped pages, it doesn't reclaim any pages remained after scanning 4 pages so it ends up OOM happening. This patch makes isolate_lru_pages try to scan pages until it encounters eligible zones's pages. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: clean up mind-bending `for' statement.

We have encountered need_resched warnings in __collapse_huge_page_copy() while doing {clear,copy}_user_highpage() over HPAGE_PMD_NR source pages. mm->mmap_sem is held for write, but the iteration is well bounded. Reschedule as needed.

This is based on a patch from Jan Kara that fixed the equivalent race in the DAX PTE fault path. Currently DAX PMD read fault can race with write(2) in the following way: CPU1 - write(2) CPU2 - read fault dax_iomap_pmd_fault() ->iomap_begin() - sees hole dax_iomap_rw() iomap_apply() ->iomap_begin - allocates blocks dax_iomap_actor() invalidate_inode_pages2_range() - there's nothing to invalidate grab_mapping_entry() - we add huge zero page to the radix tree and map it to page tables The result is that hole page is mapped into page tables (and thus zeros are seen in mmap) while file has data written in that place. Fix the problem by locking exception entry before mapping blocks for the fault. That way we are sure invalidate_inode_pages2_range() call for racing write will either block on entry lock waiting for the fault to finish (and unmap stale page tables after that) or read fault will see already allocated blocks by write(2).

DAX will return to locking exceptional entry before mapping blocks for a page fault to fix possible races with concurrent writes. To avoid lock inversion between exceptional entry lock and transaction start, start the transaction already in ext4_dax_huge_fault().
