As stated at: http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/restructuredtext/basics.html#footnotes A footnote should contain either a number, a reference or an auto number, e. g.: [1], [#f1] or [#]. While using [*] accidentaly works for html, it fails for other document outputs. In particular, it causes an error with LaTeX output, causing all books after networking to not be built. So, replace it by a valid syntax. Acked-by:

If the test_printf module is loaded before the crng is initialized, the plain 'p' tests will fail because the printed address will not be hashed and the buffer will contain '(ptrval)' instead. This patch adds a call to wait_for_random_bytes() before plain 'p' tests to make sure the crng is initialized.

Commit e27be240 ("mm: memcg: make sure memory.events is uptodate when waking pollers") converted most of memcg event counters to per-memcg atomics, which made them less confusing for a user. The "oom_kill" counter remained untouched, so now it behaves differently than other counters (including "oom"). This adds nothing but confusion. Let's fix this by adding the MEMCG_OOM_KILL event, and follow the MEMCG_OOM approach. This also removes a hack from count_memcg_event_mm(), introduced earlier specially for the OOM_KILL counter.

KCOV is code coverage collection facility used, in particular, by syzkaller system call fuzzer. There is some interest in using syzkaller on arm devices. So port KCOV to arm.

During a context switch, we first switch_mm() to the next task's mm, then switch_to() that new task. This means that vmalloc'd regions which had previously been faulted in can transiently disappear in the context of the prev task. Functions instrumented by KCOV may try to access a vmalloc'd kcov_area during this window, and as the fault handling code is instrumented, this results in a recursive fault. We must avoid accessing any kcov_area during this window. We can do so with a new flag in kcov_mode, set prior to switching the mm, and cleared once the new task is live. Since task_struct::kcov_mode isn't always a specific enum kcov_mode value, this is made an unsigned int. The manipulation is hidden behind kcov_{prepare,finish}_switch() helpers, which are empty for !CONFIG_KCOV kernels. The code uses macros because I can't use static inline functions without a circular include dependency between <linux/sched.h> and <linux/kcov.h>, since the defin...

On many architectures the vmalloc area is lazily faulted in upon first access. This is problematic for KCOV, as __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc accesses the (vmalloc'd) kcov_area, and fault handling code may be instrumented. If an access to kcov_area faults, this will result in mutual recursion through the fault handling code and __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(), eventually leading to stack corruption and/or overflow. We can avoid this by faulting in the kcov_area before __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() is permitted to access it. Once it has been faulted in, it will remain present in the process page tables, and will not fault again.

Patch series "kcov: fix unexpected faults". These patches fix a few issues where KCOV code could trigger recursive faults, discovered while debugging a patch enabling KCOV for arch/arm: * On CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels, there's a small race window where __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc() can see a bogus kcov_area. * Lazy faulting of the vmalloc area can cause mutual recursion between fault handling code and __sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(). * During the context switch, switching the mm can cause the kcov_area to be transiently unmapped. These are prerequisites for enabling KCOV on arm, but the issues themsevles are generic -- we just happen to avoid them by chance rather than design on x86-64 and arm64. This patch (of 3): For kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT, some C code may execute before or after the interrupt handler, while the hardirq count is zero. In these cases, in_task() can return true. A task can be interrupted in the middle of a KCOV_DISABLE ioctl while it r...

On the quest to remove all VLAs from the kernel[1] this adjusts several cases where allocation is made after an array of structures that points back into the allocation. The allocations are changed to perform explicit calculations instead of using a Variable Length Array in a structure. Additionally, this lets Clang compile this code now, since Clang does not support VLAIS[2].

Commit 5d190420 ("mremap: fix race between mremap() and page cleanning") fixed races between mremap and other operations for both file-backed and anonymous mappings. The file-backed was the most critical as it allowed the possibility that data could be changed on a physical page after page_mkclean returned which could trigger data loss or data integrity issues. A customer reported that the cost of the TLBs for anonymous regressions was excessive and resulting in a 30-50% drop in performance overall since this commit on a microbenchmark. Unfortunately I neither have access to the test-case nor can I describe what it does other than saying that mremap operations dominate heavily. This patch removes the LATENCY_LIMIT to handle TLB flushes on a PMD boundary instead of every 64 pages to reduce the number of TLB shootdowns by a factor of 8 in the ideal case. LATENCY_LIMIT was almost certainly used originally to limit the PT...

As a theoretical problem, dup_mmap() of an mm_struct with 60000+ vmas can loop while potentially allocating memory, with mm->mmap_sem held for write by current thread. This is bad if current thread was selected as an OOM victim, for current thread will continue allocations using memory reserves while OOM reaper is unable to reclaim memory. As an actually observable problem, it is not difficult to make OOM reaper unable to reclaim memory if the OOM victim is blocked at i_mmap_lock_write() in this loop. Unfortunately, since nobody can explain whether it is safe to use killable wait there, let's check for SIGKILL before trying to allocate memory. Even without an OOM event, there is no point with continuing the loop from the beginning if current thread is killed. I tested with debug printk(). This patch should be safe because we already fail if security_vm_enough_memory_mm() or kmem_cache_alloc(GFP_KERNEL) fails and exit_mmap() handles it. ***** Aborting ...

Without yielding while loading kimage segments, a large initrd will block all other work on the CPU performing the load until it is completed. For example loading an initrd of 200MB on a low power single core system will lock up the system for a few seconds. To increase system responsiveness to other tasks at that time, call cond_resched() in both the crash kernel and normal kernel segment loading loops. I did run into a practical problem. Hardware watchdogs on embedded systems can have short timers on the order of seconds. If the system is locked up for a few seconds with only a single core available, the watchdog may not be pet in a timely fashion. If this happens, the hardware watchdog will fire and reset the system. This really only becomes a problem when you are working with a single core, a decently sized initrd, and have a constrained hardware watchdog.

The memcg kmem cache creation and deactivation (SLUB only) is asynchronous. If a root kmem cache is destroyed whose memcg cache is in the process of creation or deactivation, the kernel may crash. Example of one such crash: general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI CPU: 1 PID: 1721 Comm: kworker/14:1 Not tainted 4.17.0-smp ... Workqueue: memcg_kmem_cache kmemcg_deactivate_workfn RIP: 0010:has_cpu_slab ...

SLUB's memcg kmem cache deactivation also includes RCU callback and thus make sure all previous registered RCU callbacks have completed as well.

Pull inode timestamps conversion to timespec64 from Arnd Bergmann: "This is a late set of changes from Deepa Dinamani doing an automated treewide conversion of the inode and iattr structures from 'timespec' to 'timespec64', to push the conversion from the VFS layer into the individual file systems. As Deepa writes: 'The series aims to switch vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64. Currently vfs uses struct timespec, which is not y2038 safe. The series involves the following: 1. Add vfs helper functions for supporting struct timepec64 timestamps. 2. Cast prints of vfs timestamps to avoid warnings after the switch. 3. Simplify code using vfs timestamps so that the actual replacement becomes easy. 4. Convert vfs timestamps to use struct timespec64 using a script. This is a flag day patch. Next steps: 1. Convert APIs that can handle timespec64, inste...
