commit b738d764 upstream. shrink_inactive_list() used to wait 0.1s to avoid congestion when all the pages that were isolated from the inactive list were dirty but not under active writeback. That makes no real sense, and apparently causes major interactivity issues under some loads since 3.11. The ostensible reason for it was to wait for kswapd to start writing pages, but that seems questionable as well, since the congestion wait code seems to trigger for kswapd itself as well. Also, the logic behind delaying anything when we haven't actually started writeback is not clear - it only delays actually starting that writeback. We'll still trigger the congestion waiting if (a) the process is kswapd, and we hit pages flagged for immediate reclaim (b) the process is not kswapd, and the zone backing dev writeback is actually congested. This probably needs to be revisited, but as it is this fixes a reported regression.

commit 75646e75 upstream. Some machines (eg. Lenovo Z480) ECs are not stable during boot up and causes battery driver fails to be loaded due to failure of getting battery information from EC sometimes. After several retries, the operation will work. This patch is to retry to get battery information 5 times if the first try fails.

commit c81c8a1e upstream. In __ioremap_caller() (the guts of ioremap), we loop over the range of pfns being remapped and checks each one individually with page_is_ram(). For large ioremaps, this can be very slow. For example, we have a device with a 256 GiB PCI BAR, and ioremapping this BAR can take 20+ seconds -- sometimes long enough to trigger the soft lockup detector! Internally, page_is_ram() calls walk_system_ram_range() on a single page. Instead, we can make a single call to walk_system_ram_range() from __ioremap_caller(), and do our further checks only for any RAM pages that we find. For the common case of MMIO, this saves an enormous amount of work, since the range being ioremapped doesn't intersect system RAM at all. With this change, ioremap on our 256 GiB BAR takes less than 1 second. Signed-off-by:

commit fb43e847 upstream. powerpc:allmodconfig has been failing for some time with the following error. arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S: Assembler messages: arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S:1312: Error: attempt to move .org backwards make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o] Error 1 A number of attempts to fix the problem by moving around code have been unsuccessful and resulted in failed builds for some configurations and the discovery of toolchain bugs. Fix the problem by disabling RELOCATABLE for COMPILE_TEST builds instead. While this is less than perfect, it avoids substantial code changes which would otherwise be necessary just to make COMPILE_TEST builds happy and might have undesired side effects. Signed-off-by:

commit 8b8b3683 upstream. The per_cpu buffers are created one per possible CPU. But these do not mean that those CPUs are online, nor do they even exist. With the addition of the ring buffer polling, it assumes that the caller polls on an existing buffer. But this is not the case if the user reads trace_pipe from a CPU that does not exist, and this causes the kernel to crash. Simple fix is to check the cpu against buffer bitmask against to see if the buffer was allocated or not and return -ENODEV if it is not. More updates were done to pass the -ENODEV back up to userspace. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/5393DB61.6060707@oracle.comReported-by:

commit 61c219f5 upstream. The first time that we allocate from an uninitialized inode allocation bitmap, if the block allocation bitmap is also uninitalized, we need to get write access to the block group descriptor before we start modifying the block group descriptor flags and updating the free block count, etc. Otherwise, there is the potential of a bad journal checksum (if journal checksums are enabled), and of the file system becoming inconsistent if we crash at exactly the wrong time.

commit 179e8471 upstream. Ensure that cpu->cpu is set before writing MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL during CPU initialization. Otherwise only cpu0 has its P-state set and all other cores are left with their values unchanged. In most cases, this is not too serious because the P-states will be set correctly when the timer function is run. But when the default governor is set to performance, the per-CPU current_pstate stays the same forever and no attempts are made to write the MSRs again. Signed-off-by:

commit 10f1d5d1 upstream. There's a race condition between the atomic_dec_and_test(&io->count) in dec_count() and the waking of the sync_io() thread. If the thread is spuriously woken immediately after the decrement it may exit, making the on stack io struct invalid, yet the dec_count could still be using it. Fix this race by using a completion in sync_io() and dec_count(). Reported-by:

commit 2a96dfa4 upstream. After unbinding the driver memory was corrupted by double free of clk_lookup structure. This lead to OOPS when re-binding the driver again. The driver allocated memory for 'clk_lookup' with devm_kzalloc. During driver removal this memory was freed twice: once by clkdev_drop() and second by devm code.

commit fa2ec3ea upstream. include/linux/sched.h implements TASK_SIZE_OF as TASK_SIZE if it is not set by the architecture headers. TASK_SIZE uses the current task to determine the size of the virtual address space. On a 64-bit kernel this will cause reading /proc/pid/pagemap of a 64-bit process from a 32-bit process to return EOF when it reads past 0xffffffff.

commit b50a6c58 upstream. On POWER8 when switching to a KVM guest we set bits in MMCR2 to freeze the PMU counters. Aside from on boot they are then never reset, resulting in stuck perf counters for any user in the guest or host. We now set MMCR2 to 0 whenever enabling the PMU, which provides a sane state for perf to use the PMU counters under either the guest or the host. This was manifesting as a bug with ppc64_cpu --frequency: $ sudo ppc64_cpu --frequency WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 0 WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 8 ... WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 144 WARNING: couldn't run on cpu 152 min: 18446744073.710 GHz (cpu -1) max: 0.000 GHz (cpu -1) avg: 0.000 GHz The command uses a perf counter to measure CPU cycles over a fixed amount of time, in order to approximate the frequency of the machine. The counters were returning zero once a guest was started, regardless of weather it was still running or had been shut down. By dumping the value of MMCR2, it was observed that once a guest is running MMCR2 is set to 1s - which stops counters from running: $ sudo sh -c 'echo p > /proc/sysrq-trigger' CPU: 0 PMU registers, ppmu = POWER8 n_counters = 6 PMC1: 5b635e38 PMC2: 00000000 PMC3: 00000000 PMC4: 00000000 PMC5: 1bf5a646 PMC6: 5793d378 PMC7: deadbeef PMC8: deadbeef MMCR0: 0000000080000000 MMCR1: 000000001e000000 MMCRA: 0000040000000000 MMCR2: fffffffffffffc00 EBBHR: 0000000000000000 EBBRR: 0000000000000000 BESCR: 0000000000000000 SIAR: 00000000000a51cc SDAR: c00000000fc40000 SIER: 0000000001000000 This is done unconditionally in book3s_hv_interrupts.S upon entering the guest, and the original value is only save/restored if the host has indicated it was using the PMU.

commit f5602941 upstream. We are seeing a lot of PMU warnings on POWER8: Can't find PMC that caused IRQ Looking closer, the active PMC is 0 at this point and we took a PMU exception on the transition from negative to 0. Some versions of POWER8 have an issue where they edge detect and not level detect PMC overflows. A number of places program the PMC with (0x80000000 - period_left), where period_left can be negative. We can either fix all of these or just ensure that period_left is always >= 1. This patch takes the second option. Signed-off-by:

commit c0d65341 upstream. There is a race condition in ec_transaction_completed(). When ec_transaction_completed() is called in the GPE handler, it could return true because of (ec->curr == NULL). Then the wake_up() invocation could complete the next command unexpectedly since there is no lock between the 2 invocations. With the previous cleanup, the IBF=0 waiter race need not be handled any more. It's now safe to return a flag from advance_condition() to indicate the requirement of wakeup, the flag is returned from a locked context. The ec_transaction_completed() is now only invoked by the ec_poll() where the ec->curr is ensured to be different from NULL. After cleaning up, the EVT_SCI=1 check should be moved out of the wakeup condition so that an EVT_SCI raised with (ec->curr == NULL) can trigger a QR_SC command.

commit 9b80f0f7 upstream. After we've added the first command byte write into advance_transaction(), the IBF=0 waiter is duplicated with the command completion waiter implemented in the ec_poll() because: If IBF=1 blocked the first command byte write invoked in the task context ec_poll(), it would be kicked off upon IBF=0 interrupt or timed out and retried again in the task context. Remove this seperate and duplicate IBF=0 waiter. By doing so we can reduce the overall number of times to access the EC_SC(R) status register.

commit f92fca00 upstream. Move the first command byte write into advance_transaction() so that all EC register accesses that can affect the command processing state machine can happen in this asynchronous state machine advancement function. The advance_transaction() function then can be a complete implementation of an asyncrhonous transaction for a single command so that: 1. The first command byte can be written in the interrupt context; 2. The command completion waiter can also be used to wait the first command byte's timeout; 3. In BURST mode, the follow-up command bytes can be written in the interrupt context directly, so that it doesn't need to return to the task context. Returning to the task context reduces the throughput of the BURST mode and in the worst cases where the system workload is very high, this leads to the hardware driven automatic BURST mode exit. In order not to increase memory consumption, convert 'done' into 'flags' to contain multiple indications: 1. ACPI_EC_COMMAND_COMPLETE: converting from original 'done' condition, indicating the completion of the command transaction. 2. ACPI_EC_COMMAND_POLL: indicating the availability of writing the first command byte. A new command can utilize this flag to compete for the right of accessing the underlying hardware. There is a follow-up bug fix that has utilized this new flag. The 2 flags are important because it also reflects a key concept of IO programs' design used in the system softwares. Normally an IO program running in the kernel should first be implemented in the asynchronous way. And the 2 flags are the most common way to implement its synchronous operations on top of the asynchronous operations: 1. POLL: This flag can be used to block until the asynchronous operations can happen. 2. COMPLETE: This flag can be used to block until the asynchronous operations have completed. By constructing code cleanly in this way, many difficult problems can be solved smoothly.

commit 66b42b78 upstream. The advance_transaction() will be invoked from the IRQ context GPE handler and the task context ec_poll(). The handling of this function is locked so that the EC state machine are ensured to be advanced sequentially. But there is a problem. Before invoking advance_transaction(), EC_SC(R) is read. Then for advance_transaction(), there could be race condition around the lock from both contexts. The first one reading the register could fail this race and when it passes the stale register value to the state machine advancement code, the hardware condition is totally different from when the register is read. And the hardware accesses determined from the wrong hardware status can break the EC state machine. And there could be cases that the functionalities of the platform firmware are seriously affected. For example: 1. When 2 EC_DATA(W) writes compete the IBF=0, the 2nd EC_DATA(W) write may be invalid due to IBF=1 after the 1st EC_DATA(W) write. Then the hardware will either refuse to respond a next EC_SC(W) write of the next command or discard the current WR_EC command when it receives a EC_SC(W) write of the next command. 2. When 1 EC_SC(W) write and 1 EC_DATA(W) write compete the IBF=0, the EC_DATA(W) write may be invalid due to IBF=1 after the EC_SC(W) write. The next EC_DATA(R) could never be responded by the hardware. This is the root cause of the reported issue. Fix this issue by moving the EC_SC(R) access into the lock so that we can ensure that the state machine is advanced consistently.

commit 145e74a4 upstream. Upper limit for write operations to temperature limit registers was clamped to a fractional value. However, limit registers do not support fractional values. As a result, upper limits of 127.5 degrees C or higher resulted in a rounded limit of 128 degrees C. Since limit registers are signed, this was stored as -128 degrees C. Clamp limits to (-55, +127) degrees C to solve the problem. Value on writes to auto_temp[12]_min and auto_temp[12]_max were not clamped at all, but masked. As a result, out-of-range writes resulted in a more or less arbitrary limit. Clamp those attributes to (0, 127) degrees C for more predictable results. Cc: Axel Lin <axel.lin@ingics.com> Reviewed-by:

All entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask is allocated by alloc_cpumask_var_node(). And these entries are used without initializing. So these entries have wrong value. When hot-adding and onlining CPU, wq_update_unbound_numa() is called. wq_update_unbound_numa() calls alloc_unbound_pwq(). And alloc_unbound_pwq() calls get_unbound_pool(). In get_unbound_pool(), worker_pool->node is set as follow: 3592 /* if cpumask is contained inside a NUMA node, we belong to that node */ 3593 if (wq_numa_enabled) { 3594 for_each_node(node) { 3595 if (cpumask_subset(pool->attrs->cpumask, 3596 wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node])) { 3597 pool->node = node; 3598 break; 3599 } 3600 } 3601 } But wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node] does not have correct cpumask. So, wrong node is selected. As a result, kernel panic occurs. By this patch, all entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask are allocated by zalloc_cpumask_var_node to initialize them. And the panic disappeared. Signed-off-by:
