      x86_64: expand kernel stack to 16K · 6538b8ea
      Minchan Kim authored
      While I play inhouse patches with much memory pressure on qemu-kvm,
      3.14 kernel was randomly crashed. The reason was kernel stack overflow.
      
      When I investigated the problem, the callstack was a little bit deeper
      by involve with reclaim functions but not direct reclaim path.
      
      I tried to diet stack size of some functions related with alloc/reclaim
      so did a hundred of byte but overflow was't disappeard so that I encounter
      overflow by another deeper callstack on reclaim/allocator path.
      
      Of course, we might sweep every sites we have found for reducing
      stack usage but I'm not sure how long it saves the world(surely,
      lots of developer start to add nice features which will use stack
      agains) and if we consider another more complex feature in I/O layer
      and/or reclaim path, it might be better to increase stack size(
      meanwhile, stack usage on 64bit machine was doubled compared to 32bit
      while it have sticked to 8K. Hmm, it's not a fair to me and arm64
      already expaned to 16K. )
      
      So, my stupid idea is just let's expand stack size and keep an eye
      toward stack consumption on each kernel functions via stacktrace of ftrace.
      For example, we can have a bar like that each funcion shouldn't exceed 200K
      and emit the warning when some function consumes more in runtime.
      Of course, it could make false positive but at least, it could make a
      chance to think over it.
      
      I guess this topic was discussed several time so there might be
      strong reason not to increase kernel stack size on x86_64, for me not
      knowing so Ccing x86_64 maintainers, other MM guys and virtio
      maintainers.
      
      Here's an example call trace using up the kernel stack:

      [ Note: the problem is exacerbated by certain gcc versions that seem to
        generate much bigger stack frames due to apparently bad coalescing of
        temporaries and generating too many spills.  Rusty saw gcc-4.6.4 using
        35% more stack on the virtio path than 4.8.2 does, for example.
      
        Minchan not only uses such a bad gcc version (4.6.3 in his case), but
        some of the stack use is due to debugging (CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is
        what causes that kernel_map_pages() frame, for example). But we're
        clearly getting too close.
      
        The VM code also seems to have excessive stack frames partly for the
        same compiler reason, triggered by excessive inlining and lots of
        function arguments.
      
        We need to improve on our stack use, but in the meantime let's do this
        simple stack increase too.  Unlike most earlier reports, there is
        nothing simple that stands out as being really horribly wrong here,
        apart from the fact that the stack frames are just bigger than they
        should need to be.        - Linus ]

      dealing with the rest of shrink_dentry_list() livelock · b2b80195
      Al Viro authored
      We have the same problem with ->d_lock order in the inner loop, where
      we are dropping references to ancestors.  Same solution, basically -
      instead of using dentry_kill() we use lock_parent() (introduced in the
      previous commit) to get that lock in a safe way, recheck ->d_count
      (in case if lock_parent() has ended up dropping and retaking ->d_lock
      and somebody managed to grab a reference during that window), trylock
      the inode->i_lock and use __dentry_kill() to do the rest.

      shrink_dentry_list(): take parent's ->d_lock earlier · 046b961b
      Al Viro authored
      The cause of livelocks there is that we are taking ->d_lock on
      dentry and its parent in the wrong order, forcing us to use
      trylock on the parent's one.  d_walk() takes them in the right
      order, and unfortunately it's not hard to create a situation
      when shrink_dentry_list() can't make progress since trylock
      keeps failing, and shrink_dcache_parent() or check_submounts_and_drop()
      keeps calling d_walk() disrupting the very shrink_dentry_list() it's
      waiting for.
      
      Solution is straightforward - if that trylock fails, let's unlock
      the dentry itself and take locks in the right order.  We need to
      stabilize ->d_parent without holding ->d_lock, but that's doable
      using RCU.  And we'd better do that in the very beginning of the
      loop in shrink_dentry_list(), since the checks on refcount, etc.
      would need to be redone anyway.
      
      That deals with a half of the problem - killing dentries on the
      shrink list itself.  Another one (dropping their parents) is
      in the next commit.
      
      locking parent is interesting - it would be easy to do rcu_read_lock(),
      lock whatever we think is a parent, lock dentry itself and check
      if the parent is still the right one.  Except that we need to check
      that *before* locking the dentry, or we are risking taking ->d_lock
      out of order.  Fortunately, once the D1 is locked, we can check if
      D2->d_parent is equal to D1 without the need to lock D2; D2->d_parent
      can start or stop pointing to D1 only under D1->d_lock, so taking
      D1->d_lock is enough.  In other words, the right solution is
      rcu_read_lock/lock what looks like parent right now/check if it's
      still our parent/rcu_read_unlock/lock the child.

      firewire: revert to 4 GB RDMA, fix protocols using Memory Space · 2fe2023a
      Stefan Richter authored
      Undo a feature introduced in v3.14 by commit fcd46b34
      "firewire: Enable remote DMA above 4 GB".  That change raised the
      minimum address at which protocol drivers and user programs can register
      for request reception from 0x0001'0000'0000 to 0x8000'0000'0000.
      It turned out that at least one vendor-specific protocol exists which
      uses lower addresses:  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76921
      
      For the time being, revert most of commit fcd46b34 so that affected
      protocols work like with kernel v3.13 and before.  Just keep the valid
      documentation parts from the regressing commit, and the ability to
      identify controllers which could be programmed to accept >32 bit
      physical DMA addresses.  The rest of fcd46b34 should probably be
      brought back as an optional instead of default feature.

      this is completely ignored by set_pmd_at, and so we fail to set the
      PMD_SECT_RDONLY for PMDs, resulting in all sorts of lovely failures (like
      CoW not working).
      
      Partially reverting the offending commit (by making use of
      PMD_SECT_RDONLY explicitly for pmd_{write,wrprotect,mkwrite} functions)
      leads to further issues because pmd_write can then return potentially
      incorrect values for page table entries marked as RDONLY, leading to
      BUG_ON(pmd_write(entry)) tripping under some THP workloads.
      
      This patch fixes the issue by routing set_pmd_at through set_pte_at,
      which correctly takes the PTE_WRITE flag into account. Given that
      THP mappings are always anonymous, the additional cache-flushing code
      in __sync_icache_dcache won't impose any significant overhead as the
      flush will be skipped.

      ARM: 8063/1: bL_switcher: fix individual online status reporting of removed CPUs · 3f8517e7
      Nicolas Pitre authored
      The content of /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online  is still 1 for those
      CPUs that the switcher has removed even though the global state in
      /sys/devices/system/cpu/online is updated correctly.
      
      It turns out that commit 0902a904 ("Driver core: Use generic
      offline/online for CPU offline/online") has changed the way those files
      retrieve their content by relying on on the generic attribute handling
      code.  The switcher, by calling cpu_down() directly, bypasses this
      handling and the attribute value doesn't get updated.
      
      Fix this by calling device_offline()/device_online() instead.

      lift the "already marked killed" case into shrink_dentry_list() · 64fd72e0
      Al Viro authored
      It can happen only when dentry_kill() is called with unlock_on_failure
      equal to 0 - other callers had dentry pinned until the moment they've
      got ->d_lock and DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED is set only after lockref_mark_dead().
      
      IOW, only one of three call sites of dentry_kill() might end up reaching
      that code.  Just move it there.

      powerpc, kexec: Fix "Processor X is stuck" issue during kexec from ST mode · 011e4b02
      Srivatsa S. Bhat authored
      If we try to perform a kexec when the machine is in ST (Single-Threaded) mode
      (ppc64_cpu --smt=off), the kexec operation doesn't succeed properly, and we
      get the following messages during boot:

      Note that only the sibling threads are stuck, while the primary threads (0, 8,
      16 etc) boot just fine. Looking closer at the previous step of kexec, we observe
      that kexec tries to wakeup (bring online) the sibling threads of all the cores,
      before performing kexec:

      Instrumenting this piece of code revealed that the cpu_up() operation actually
      fails with -EBUSY. Thus, only the primary threads of all the cores are online
      during kexec, and hence this is a sure-shot receipe for disaster, as explained
      in commit e8e5c215 (powerpc/kexec: Fix orphaned offline CPUs across kexec),
      as well as in the comment above wake_offline_cpus().
      
      It turns out that cpu_up() was returning -EBUSY because the variable
      'cpu_hotplug_disabled' was set to 1; and this disabling of CPU hotplug was done
      by migrate_to_reboot_cpu() inside kernel_kexec().
      
      Now, migrate_to_reboot_cpu() was originally written with the assumption that
      any further code will not need to perform CPU hotplug, since we are anyway in
      the reboot path. However, kexec is clearly not such a case, since we depend on
      onlining CPUs, atleast on powerpc.
      
      So re-enable cpu-hotplug after returning from migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in the
      kexec path, to fix this regression in kexec on powerpc.
      
      Also, wrap the cpu_up() in powerpc kexec code within a WARN_ON(), so that we
      can catch such issues more easily in the future.

      powerpc: Fix 64 bit builds with binutils 2.24 · 7998eb3d
      Guenter Roeck authored
      With binutils 2.24, various 64 bit builds fail with relocation errors
      such as
      
      arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o: In function `exc_debug_crit_book3e':
      	(.text+0x165ee): relocation truncated to fit: R_PPC64_ADDR16_HI
      	against symbol `interrupt_base_book3e' defined in .text section
      	in arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o
      arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o: In function `exc_debug_crit_book3e':
      	(.text+0x16602): relocation truncated to fit: R_PPC64_ADDR16_HI
      	against symbol `interrupt_end_book3e' defined in .text section
      	in arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o
      
      The assembler maintainer says:
      
       I changed the ABI, something that had to be done but unfortunately
       happens to break the booke kernel code.  When building up a 64-bit
       value with lis, ori, shl, oris, ori or similar sequences, you now
       should use @high and @higha in place of @h and @ha.  @h and @ha
       (and their associated relocs R_PPC64_ADDR16_HI and R_PPC64_ADDR16_HA)
       now report overflow if the value is out of 32-bit signed range.
       ie. @h and @ha assume you're building a 32-bit value. This is needed
       to report out-of-range -mcmodel=medium toc pointer offsets in @toc@h
       and @toc@ha expressions, and for consistency I did the same for all
       other @h and @ha relocs.
      
      Replacing @h with @high in one strategic location fixes the relocation
      errors. This has to be done conditionally since the assembler either
      supports @h or @high but not both.

      When there isn't enough vring descriptor for adding to vq,

      Unfortunately, the vq's interrupt may come just before
      blk-mq's BLK_MQ_S_STOPPED flag is set, so the blk-mq will
      still be kept as stopped even though lots of descriptors
      are completed and freed in the interrupt handler. The worst
      case is that all pending descriptors are freed in the
      interrupt handler, and the queue is kept as stopped forever.
      
      This patch fixes the problem by starting/stopping blk-mq
      with holding vq_lock.

      dm cache: always split discards on cache block boundaries · f1daa838
      Heinz Mauelshagen authored
      The DM cache target cannot cope with discards that span multiple cache
      blocks, so each discard bio that spans more than one cache block must
      get split by the DM core.
