       "ARM has system calls outside the NR_syscalls range, and the generic

        an oops to be reported.
      
        Rabin Vincent added checks in the return code on syscall events to
        make sure that the system call number is within the range that tracing
        knows about, and if not, simply ignores the system call.
      
        The system call tracing infrastructure needs to be rewritten to handle
        these cases better, but for now, to keep from oopsing, this patch will

      tracing/syscalls: Ignore numbers outside NR_syscalls' range · 086ba77a
      Rabin Vincent authored
      ARM has some private syscalls (for example, set_tls(2)) which lie
      outside the range of NR_syscalls.  If any of these are called while
      syscall tracing is being performed, out-of-bounds array access will
      occur in the ftrace and perf sys_{enter,exit} handlers.

      fs: allow open(dir, O_TMPFILE|..., 0) with mode 0 · 69a91c23
      Eric Rannaud authored
      The man page for open(2) indicates that when O_CREAT is specified, the
      'mode' argument applies only to future accesses to the file:
      
      	Note that this mode applies only to future accesses of the newly
      	created file; the open() call that creates a read-only file
      	may well return a read/write file descriptor.
      
      The man page for open(2) implies that 'mode' is treated identically by
      O_CREAT and O_TMPFILE.
      
      O_TMPFILE, however, behaves differently:
      
      	int fd = open("/tmp", O_TMPFILE | O_RDWR, 0);
      	assert(fd == -1);
      	assert(errno == EACCES);
      
      	int fd = open("/tmp", O_TMPFILE | O_RDWR, 0600);
      	assert(fd > 0);
      
      For O_CREAT, do_last() sets acc_mode to MAY_OPEN only:
      
      	if (*opened & FILE_CREATED) {
      		/* Don't check for write permission, don't truncate */
      		open_flag &= ~O_TRUNC;
      		will_truncate = false;
      		acc_mode = MAY_OPEN;
      		path_to_nameidata(path, nd);
      		goto finish_open_created;
      	}
      
      But for O_TMPFILE, do_tmpfile() passes the full op->acc_mode to
      may_open().
      
      This patch lines up the behavior of O_TMPFILE with O_CREAT. After the
      inode is created, may_open() is called with acc_mode = MAY_OPEN, in
      do_tmpfile().
      
      A different, but related glibc bug revealed the discrepancy:
      https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17523
      
      The glibc lazily loads the 'mode' argument of open() and openat() using
      va_arg() only if O_CREAT is present in 'flags' (to support both the 2
      argument and the 3 argument forms of open; same idea for openat()).
      However, the glibc ignores the 'mode' argument if O_TMPFILE is in
      'flags'.
      
      On x86_64, for open(), it magically works anyway, as 'mode' is in
      RDX when entering open(), and is still in RDX on SYSCALL, which is where
      the kernel looks for the 3rd argument of a syscall.
      
      But openat() is not quite so lucky: 'mode' is in RCX when entering the
      glibc wrapper for openat(), while the kernel looks for the 4th argument
      of a syscall in R10. Indeed, the syscall calling convention differs from
      the regular calling convention in this respect on x86_64. So the kernel
      sees mode = 0 when trying to use glibc openat() with O_TMPFILE, and
      fails with EACCES.

       - create the cache named "foo" again - it fails because the name "foo"
         is already used
      
      That bug was fixed in commit 69461747 ("slab_common: fix the check
      for duplicate slab names") by not warning on duplicate cache names when
      the SLUB subsystem is used.
      
      Recently, cache merging was implemented the with SLAB subsystem too, in
      12220dea ("mm/slab: support slab merge")).  Therefore we need stop
      checking for duplicate names even for the SLAB subsystem.
      
      This patch fixes the bug by removing the check.

      mm: memcontrol: fix missed end-writeback page accounting · d7365e78
      Johannes Weiner authored
      Commit 0a31bc97 ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API") changed
      page migration to uncharge the old page right away.  The page is locked,
      unmapped, truncated, and off the LRU, but it could race with writeback
      ending, which then doesn't unaccount the page properly:
      
      test_clear_page_writeback()              migration
                                                 wait_on_page_writeback()
        TestClearPageWriteback()
                                                 mem_cgroup_migrate()
                                                   clear PCG_USED
        mem_cgroup_update_page_stat()
          if (PageCgroupUsed(pc))
            decrease memcg pages under writeback
      
        release pc->mem_cgroup->move_lock
      
      The per-page statistics interface is heavily optimized to avoid a
      function call and a lookup_page_cgroup() in the file unmap fast path,
      which means it doesn't verify whether a page is still charged before
      clearing PageWriteback() and it has to do it in the stat update later.
      
      Rework it so that it looks up the page's memcg once at the beginning of
      the transaction and then uses it throughout.  The charge will be
      verified before clearing PageWriteback() and migration can't uncharge
      the page as long as that is still set.  The RCU lock will protect the
      memcg past uncharge.
      
      As far as losing the optimization goes, the following test results are
      from a microbenchmark that maps, faults, and unmaps a 4GB sparse file
      three times in a nested fashion, so that there are two negative passes
      that don't account but still go through the new transaction overhead.
      There is no actual difference:
      
       old:     33.195102545 seconds time elapsed       ( +-  0.01% )
       new:     33.199231369 seconds time elapsed       ( +-  0.03% )
      
      The time spent in page_remove_rmap()'s callees still adds up to the
      same, but the time spent in the function itself seems reduced:
      
           # Children      Self  Command        Shared Object       Symbol
       old:     0.12%     0.11%  filemapstress  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] page_remove_rmap
       new:     0.12%     0.08%  filemapstress  [kernel.kallsyms]   [k] page_remove_rmap

      memory-hotplug: clear pgdat which is allocated by bootmem in try_offline_node() · 35dca71c
      Yasuaki Ishimatsu authored
      When hot adding the same memory after hot removal, the following
      messages are shown:

          ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0
      
      The detaled explanation is as follows:
      
      When hot removing memory, pgdat is set to 0 in try_offline_node().  But
      if the pgdat is allocated by bootmem allocator, the clearing step is
      skipped.
      
      And when hot adding the same memory, the uninitialized pgdat is reused.
      But free_area_init_node() checks wether pgdat is set to zero.  As a
      result, free_area_init_node() hits WARN_ON().
      
      This patch clears pgdat which is allocated by bootmem allocator in
      try_offline_node().

      There is a use-after-free bug on the subprocess_info structure allocated
      by the user mode helper.  In case do_execve() returns with an error
      ____call_usermodehelper() stores the error code to sub_info->retval, but
      sub_info can already have been freed.
      
      Regarding UMH_NO_WAIT, the sub_info structure can be freed by
      __call_usermodehelper() before the worker thread returns from
      do_execve(), allowing memory corruption when do_execve() failed after
      exec_mmap() is called.
      
      Regarding UMH_WAIT_EXEC, the call to umh_complete() allows
      call_usermodehelper_exec() to continue which then frees sub_info.
      
      To fix this race the code needs to make sure that the call to
      call_usermodehelper_freeinfo() is always done after the last store to
      sub_info->retval.

      mm, thp: fix collapsing of hugepages on madvise · 6d50e60c
      David Rientjes authored
      If an anonymous mapping is not allowed to fault thp memory and then
      madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) is used after fault, khugepaged will never
      collapse this memory into thp memory.
      
      This occurs because the madvise(2) handler for thp, hugepage_madvise(),
      clears VM_NOHUGEPAGE on the stack and it isn't stored in vma->vm_flags
      until the final action of madvise_behavior().  This causes the
      khugepaged_enter_vma_merge() to be a no-op in hugepage_madvise() when
      the vma had previously had VM_NOHUGEPAGE set.
      
      Fix this by passing the correct vma flags to the khugepaged mm slot
      handler.  There's no chance khugepaged can run on this vma until after
      madvise_behavior() returns since we hold mm->mmap_sem.
      
      It would be possible to clear VM_NOHUGEPAGE directly from vma->vm_flags
      in hugepage_advise(), but I didn't want to introduce special case
      behavior into madvise_behavior().  I think it's best to just let it
      always set vma->vm_flags itself.

      mm: free compound page with correct order · 5ddacbe9
      Yu Zhao authored
      Compound page should be freed by put_page() or free_pages() with correct
      order.  Not doing so will cause tail pages leaked.
      
      The compound order can be obtained by compound_order() or use
      HPAGE_PMD_ORDER in our case.  Some people would argue the latter is
      faster but I prefer the former which is more general.
      
      This bug was observed not just on our servers (the worst case we saw is
      11G leaked on a 48G machine) but also on our workstations running Ubuntu
      based distro.
      
        $ cat /proc/vmstat  | grep thp_zero_page_alloc
        thp_zero_page_alloc 55
        thp_zero_page_alloc_failed 0
      
      This means there is (thp_zero_page_alloc - 1) * (2M - 4K) memory leaked.

      fsnotify: next_i is freed during fsnotify_unmount_inodes. · 6424babf
      Jerry Hoemann authored
      During file system stress testing on 3.10 and 3.12 based kernels, the
      umount command occasionally hung in fsnotify_unmount_inodes in the
      section of code:
      
                      spin_lock(&inode->i_lock);
                      if (inode->i_state & (I_FREEING|I_WILL_FREE|I_NEW)) {
                              spin_unlock(&inode->i_lock);
                              continue;
                      }
      
      As this section of code holds the global inode_sb_list_lock, eventually
      the system hangs trying to acquire the lock.
      
      Multiple crash dumps showed:
      
      The inode->i_state == 0x60 and i_count == 0 and i_sb_list would point
      back at itself.  As this is not the value of list upon entry to the
      function, the kernel never exits the loop.
      
      To help narrow down problem, the call to list_del_init in
      inode_sb_list_del was changed to list_del.  This poisons the pointers in
      the i_sb_list and causes a kernel to panic if it transverse a freed
      inode.
      
      Subsequent stress testing paniced in fsnotify_unmount_inodes at the
      bottom of the list_for_each_entry_safe loop showing next_i had become
      free.
      
      We believe the root cause of the problem is that next_i is being freed
      during the window of time that the list_for_each_entry_safe loop
      temporarily releases inode_sb_list_lock to call fsnotify and
      fsnotify_inode_delete.
      
      The code in fsnotify_unmount_inodes attempts to prevent the freeing of
      inode and next_i by calling __iget.  However, the code doesn't do the
      __iget call on next_i
      
      	if i_count == 0 or
      	if i_state & (I_FREEING | I_WILL_FREE)
      
      The patch addresses this issue by advancing next_i in the above two cases
      until we either find a next_i which we can __iget or we reach the end of
      the list.  This makes the handling of next_i more closely match the
      handling of the variable "inode."
      
      The time to reproduce the hang is highly variable (from hours to days.) We
      ran the stress test on a 3.10 kernel with the proposed patch for a week
      without failure.
      
      During list_for_each_entry_safe, next_i is becoming free causing
      the loop to never terminate.  Advance next_i in those cases where
      __iget is not done.

      mm/compaction.c: avoid premature range skip in isolate_migratepages_range · 6ea41c0c
      Joonsoo Kim authored
      Commit edc2ca61 ("mm, compaction: move pageblock checks up from
      isolate_migratepages_range()") commonizes isolate_migratepages variants
      and make them use isolate_migratepages_block().
      
      isolate_migratepages_block() could stop the execution when enough pages
      are isolated, but, there is no code in isolate_migratepages_range() to
      handle this case.  In the result, even if isolate_migratepages_block()
      returns prematurely without checking all pages in the range,
      
      isolate_migratepages_block() is called repeately on the following
      pageblock and some pages in the previous range are skipped to check.
      Then, CMA is failed frequently due to this fact.
      
      To fix this problem, this patch let isolate_migratepages_range() know
      the situation that enough pages are isolated and stop the isolation in
      that case.
      
      Note that isolate_migratepages() has no such problem, because, it always
      stops the isolation after just one call of isolate_migratepages_block().

      cgroup/kmemleak: add kmemleak_free() for cgroup deallocations. · 401507d6
      Wang Nan authored
      Commit ff7ee93f ("cgroup/kmemleak: Annotate alloc_page() for cgroup
      allocations") introduces kmemleak_alloc() for alloc_page_cgroup(), but
      corresponding kmemleak_free() is missing, which makes kmemleak be
      wrongly disabled after memory offlining.  Log is pasted at the end of
      this commit message.
      
      This patch add kmemleak_free() into free_page_cgroup().  During page
      offlining, this patch removes corresponding entries in kmemleak rbtree.
      After that, the freed memory can be allocated again by other subsystems
      without killing kmemleak.

      ALSA: hda - Add workaround for CMI8888 snoop behavior · 3b70bdba
      Takashi Iwai authored
      CMI8888 shows the stuttering playback when the snooping is disabled
      on the audio buffer.  Meanwhile, we've got reports that CORB/RIRB
      doesn't work in the snooped mode.  So, as a compromise, disable the
      snoop only for CORB/RIRB and enable the snoop for the stream buffers.
      
      The resultant patch became a bit ugly, unfortunately, but we still can
      live with it.
