      fs/affs/file.c: unlock/release page on error · 3d5d472c
      Taesoo Kim authored
      When affs_bread_ino() fails, correctly unlock the page and release the
      page cache with proper error value.  All write_end() should
      unlock/release the page that was locked by write_beg().

      mm/page_alloc.c: call kernel_map_pages in unset_migrateype_isolate · cfa86943
      Laura Abbott authored
      Commit 3c605096 ("mm/page_alloc: restrict max order of merging on
      isolated pageblock") changed the logic of unset_migratetype_isolate to
      check the buddy allocator and explicitly call __free_pages to merge.
      
      The page that is being freed in this path never had prep_new_page called
      so set_page_refcounted is called explicitly but there is no call to
      kernel_map_pages.  With the default kernel_map_pages this is mostly
      harmless but if kernel_map_pages does any manipulation of the page
      tables (unmapping or setting pages to read only) this may trigger a
      fault:
      
          alloc_contig_range test_pages_isolated(ceb00, ced00) failed

      mm/slub: fix lockups on PREEMPT && !SMP kernels · 859b7a0e
      Mark Rutland authored
      Commit 9aabf810 ("mm/slub: optimize alloc/free fastpath by removing
      preemption on/off") introduced an occasional hang for kernels built with
      CONFIG_PREEMPT && !CONFIG_SMP.
      
      The problem is the following loop the patch introduced to
      slab_alloc_node and slab_free:
      
          do {
              tid = this_cpu_read(s->cpu_slab->tid);
              c = raw_cpu_ptr(s->cpu_slab);
          } while (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT) && unlikely(tid != c->tid));
      
      GCC 4.9 has been observed to hoist the load of c and c->tid above the
      loop for !SMP kernels (as in this case raw_cpu_ptr(x) is compile-time
      constant and does not force a reload).  On arm64 the generated assembly
      looks like:
      
               ldr     x4, [x0,#8]
        loop:
               ldr     x1, [x0,#8]
               cmp     x1, x4
               b.ne    loop
      
      If the thread is preempted between the load of c->tid (into x1) and tid
      (into x4), and an allocation or free occurs in another thread (bumping
      the cpu_slab's tid), the thread will be stuck in the loop until
      s->cpu_slab->tid wraps, which may be forever in the absence of
      allocations/frees on the same CPU.
      
      This patch changes the loop condition to access c->tid with READ_ONCE.
      This ensures that the value is reloaded even when the compiler would
      otherwise assume it could cache the value, and also ensures that the
      load will not be torn.

      The cause is the "memset(pgdat, 0, sizeof(*pgdat))" at the end of
      try_offline_node, which will reset all the content of pgdat to 0, as the
      pgdat is accessed lock-free, so that the users still using the pgdat
      will panic, such as the vmstat_update routine.
      
      process A:				offline node XX:
      
      vmstat_updat()
         refresh_cpu_vm_stats()
           for_each_populated_zone()
             find online node XX
           cond_resched()
      					offline cpu and memory, then try_offline_node()
      					node_set_offline(nid), and memset(pgdat, 0, sizeof(*pgdat))
             zone = next_zone(zone)
               pg_data_t *pgdat = zone->zone_pgdat;  // here pgdat is NULL now
                 next_online_pgdat(pgdat)
                   next_online_node(pgdat->node_id);  // NULL pointer access
      
      So the solution here is postponing the reset of obsolete pgdat from
      try_offline_node() to hotadd_new_pgdat(), and just resetting
      pgdat->nr_zones and pgdat->classzone_idx to be 0 rather than the memset
      0 to avoid breaking pointer information in pgdat.

      mm/pagewalk.c: prevent positive return value of walk_page_test() from being passed to callers · f6837395
      Naoya Horiguchi authored
      walk_page_test() is purely pagewalk's internal stuff, and its positive
      return values are not intended to be passed to the callers of pagewalk.
      
      However, in the current code if the last vma in the do-while loop in
      walk_page_range() happens to return a positive value, it leaks outside
      walk_page_range().  So the user visible effect is invalid/unexpected
      return value (according to the reporter, mbind() causes it.)
      
      This patch fixes it simply by reinitializing the return value after
      checked.
      
      Another exposed interface, walk_page_vma(), already returns 0 for such
      cases so no problem.

      mm: fix anon_vma->degree underflow in anon_vma endless growing prevention · 3fe89b3e
      Leon Yu authored
      I have constantly stumbled upon "kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!" after
      upgrading to 3.19 and had no luck with 4.0-rc1 neither.
      
      So, after looking into new logic introduced by commit 7a3ef208 ("mm:
      prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy"), I found chances are that
      unlink_anon_vmas() is called without incrementing dst->anon_vma->degree
      in anon_vma_clone() due to allocation failure.  If dst->anon_vma is not
      NULL in error path, its degree will be incorrectly decremented in
      unlink_anon_vmas() and eventually underflow when exiting as a result of
      another call to unlink_anon_vmas().  That's how "kernel BUG at
      mm/rmap.c:399!" is triggered for me.
      
      This patch fixes the underflow by dropping dst->anon_vma when allocation
      fails.  It's safe to do so regardless of original value of dst->anon_vma
      because dst->anon_vma doesn't have valid meaning if anon_vma_clone()
      fails.  Besides, callers don't care dst->anon_vma in such case neither.
      
      Also suggested by Michal Hocko, we can clean up vma_adjust() a bit as
      anon_vma_clone() now does the work.

      drivers/rtc/rtc-mrst: fix suspend/resume · ddd2a30d
      Lars-Peter Clausen authored
      The Moorestown RTC driver implements suspend and resume callbacks and
      assigns them to the suspend and resume fields of the device_driver
      struct.  These callbacks are never actually called by anything though.
      
      Modify the driver to properly use dev_pm_ops so that the suspend and
      resume functions are actually executed upon suspend/resume.

      KVM: x86: call irq notifiers with directed EOI · c806a6ad
      Radim Krčmář authored
      kvm_ioapic_update_eoi() wasn't called if directed EOI was enabled.
      We need to do that for irq notifiers.  (Like with edge interrupts.)
      
      Fix it by skipping EOI broadcast only.

      arm64: Use the reserved TTBR0 if context switching to the init_mm · e53f21bc
      Catalin Marinas authored
      The idle_task_exit() function may call switch_mm() with next ==
      &init_mm. On arm64, init_mm.pgd cannot be used for user mappings, so
      this patch simply sets the reserved TTBR0.

      sparc64: Fix several bugs in memmove(). · 2077cef4
      David S. Miller authored
      Firstly, handle zero length calls properly.  Believe it or not there
      are a few of these happening during early boot.
      
      Next, we can't just drop to a memcpy() call in the forward copy case
      where dst <= src.  The reason is that the cache initializing stores
      used in the Niagara memcpy() implementations can end up clearing out
      cache lines before we've sourced their original contents completely.
      
      For example, considering NG4memcpy, the main unrolled loop begins like
      this:
      
           load   src + 0x00
           load   src + 0x08
           load   src + 0x10
           load   src + 0x18
           load   src + 0x20
           store  dst + 0x00
      
      Assume dst is 64 byte aligned and let's say that dst is src - 8 for
      this memcpy() call.  That store at the end there is the one to the
      first line in the cache line, thus clearing the whole line, which thus
      clobbers "src + 0x28" before it even gets loaded.
      
      To avoid this, just fall through to a simple copy only mildly
      optimized for the case where src and dst are 8 byte aligned and the
      length is a multiple of 8 as well.  We could get fancy and call
      GENmemcpy() but this is good enough for how this thing is actually
      used.

      powerpc/book3s: Fix the MCE code to use CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HANDLER · 44d5f6f5
      Mahesh Salgaonkar authored
      commit id 2ba9f0d8 has changed CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV to tristate to allow
      HV/PR bits to be built as modules. But the MCE code still depends on
      CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV which is wrong. When user selects
      CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV=m to build HV/PR bits as a separate module the
      relevant MCE code gets excluded.
      
      This patch fixes the MCE code to use CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HANDLER. This
      makes sure that the relevant MCE code is included when HV/PR bits
      are built as a separate modules.
      
      Fixes: 2ba9f0d8 ("kvm: powerpc: book3s: Support building HV and PR KVM as module")

      cx82310_eth: wait for firmware to become ready · f40bff42
      Ondrej Zary authored
      When the device is powered up, some (older) firmware versions fail to work
      properly if we send commands before the boot is complete (everything is OK
      when the device is hot-plugged). The firmware indicates its ready status by
      putting the link up.
      Newer firmwares delay the first command so they don't suffer from this problem.
      They also report the link being always up.
      
      Wait for firmware to become ready (link up) before sending any commands and/or
      data.
      
      This also allows lowering CMD_TIMEOUT value to a reasonable time.
      
      Tested with 4.1.0.9 (old) and 4.1.0.30 (new) firmware versions.

      Pull power management and ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
       "These are fixes for recent regressions (PCI/ACPI resources and at91
        RTC locking), a stable-candidate powercap RAPL driver fix and two ARM
        cpuidle fixes (one stable-candidate too).
      
        Specifics:
      
         - Revert a recent PCI commit related to IRQ resources management that
           introduced a regression for drivers attempting to bind to devices
           whose previous drivers did not balance pci_enable_device() and
           pci_disable_device() as expected (Rafael J Wysocki).
      
         - Fix a deadlock in at91_rtc_interrupt() introduced by a typo in a
           recent commit related to wakeup interrupt handling (Dan Carpenter).
      
         - Allow the power capping RAPL (Running-Average Power Limit) driver
           to use different energy units for domains within one CPU package
           which is necessary to handle Intel Haswell EP processors correctly
           (Jacob Pan).
      
         - Improve the cpuidle mvebu driver's handling of Armada XP SoCs by
           updating the target residency and exit latency numbers for those
           chips (Sebastien Rannou).
      
         - Prevent the cpuidle mvebu driver from calling cpu_pm_enter() twice
           in a row before cpu_pm_exit() is called on the same CPU which
           breaks the core's assumptions regarding the usage of those
