Several tests in the NAS benchmark seem to run a lot slower with NUMA balancing enabled, than with NUMA balancing disabled. The slower run time corresponds with increased idle time. Overriding the final test of migrate_degrades_locality (but still doing the other NUMA tests first) seems to improve performance of those benchmarks. Reported-by:

When limiting the argv/envp strings during exec to 1/4 of the stack limit, the storage of the pointers to the strings was not included. This means that an exec with huge numbers of tiny strings could eat 1/4 of the stack limit in strings and then additional space would be later used by the pointers to the strings. For example, on 32-bit with a 8MB stack rlimit, an exec with 1677721 single-byte strings would consume less than 2MB of stack, the max (8MB / 4) amount allowed, but the pointers to the strings would consume the remaining additional stack space (1677721 * 4 == 6710884). The result (1677721 + 6710884 == 8388605) would exhaust stack space entirely. Controlling this stack exhaustion could result in pathological behavior in setuid binaries (CVE-2017-1000365).

Another deadlock path caused by recursive locking is reported. This kind of issue was introduced since commit 743b5f14 ("ocfs2: take inode lock in ocfs2_iop_set/get_acl()"). Two deadlock paths have been fixed by commit b891fa50 ("ocfs2: fix deadlock issue when taking inode lock at vfs entry points"). Yes, we intend to fix this kind of case in incremental way, because it's hard to find out all possible paths at once. This one can be reproduced like this. On node1, cp a large file from home directory to ocfs2 mountpoint. While on node2, run setfacl/getfacl. Both nodes will hang up there. The backtraces: On node1: __ocfs2_cluster_lock.isra.39+0x357/0x740 [ocfs2] ocfs2_inode_lock_full_nested+0x17d/0x840 [ocfs2] ocfs2_write_begin+0x43/0x1a0 [ocfs2] generic_perform_write+0xa9/0x180 __generic_file_write_iter+0x1aa/0x1d0 ocfs2_file_write_iter+0x4f4/0xb40 [ocfs2] __vfs_write+0xc3/0x130 vfs_write+0xb1/0x1a0 SyS_write+0x46/0xa0 On node2: __ocfs2_cluster_lock.isra.39+0x357/0x740 [ocfs2] ocfs2_inode_lock_full_nested+0x17d/0x840 [ocfs2] ocfs2_xattr_set+0x12e/0xe80 [ocfs2] ocfs2_set_acl+0x22d/0x260 [ocfs2] ocfs2_iop_set_acl+0x65/0xb0 [ocfs2] set_posix_acl+0x75/0xb0 posix_acl_xattr_set+0x49/0xa0 __vfs_setxattr+0x69/0x80 __vfs_setxattr_noperm+0x72/0x1a0 vfs_setxattr+0xa7/0xb0 setxattr+0x12d/0x190 path_setxattr+0x9f/0xb0 SyS_setxattr+0x14/0x20 Fix this one by using ocfs2_inode_{lock|unlock}_tracker, which is exported by commit 439a36b8 ("ocfs2/dlmglue: prepare tracking logic to avoid recursive cluster lock").

SyS_delete_module+0x5/0x1f0 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x1f/0xc2 It'd be the cleanest to deal with the issue by removing sysfs files without holding slab_mutex before the rest of shutdown; however, given the current code structure, it is pretty difficult to do so. This patch punts sysfs file removal to a work item. Before commit bf5eb3de, the removal was punted to a RCU delayed work item which is executed after release. Now, we're punting to a different work item on shutdown which still maintains the goal removing the sysfs files earlier when destroying kmem_caches.

When using get_options() it's possible to specify a range of numbers, like 1-100500. The problem is that it doesn't track array size while calling internally to get_range() which iterates over the range and fills the memory with numbers.

Existing code that uses vmalloc_to_page() may assume that any address for which is_vmalloc_addr() returns true may be passed into vmalloc_to_page() to retrieve the associated struct page. This is not un unreasonable assumption to make, but on architectures that have CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP=y, it no longer holds, and we need to ensure that vmalloc_to_page() does not go off into the weeds trying to dereference huge PUDs or PMDs as table entries. Given that vmalloc() and vmap() themselves never create huge mappings or deal with compound pages at all, there is no correct answer in this case, so return NULL instead, and issue a warning. When reading /proc/kcore on arm64, you will hit an oops as soon as you hit the huge mappings used for the various segments that make up the mapping of vmlinux. With this patch applied, you will no longer hit the oops, but the kcore contents willl be incorrect (these regions will be zeroed out) We are fixing this for kcore specifically, so it avoids vread() for those regions. At least one other problematic user exists, i.e., /dev/kmem, but that is currently broken on arm64 for other reasons.

This is a partial revert of commit 338a16ba ("mm, thp: copying user pages must schedule on collapse") which added a cond_resched() to __collapse_huge_page_copy(). On x86 with CONFIG_HIGHPTE, __collapse_huge_page_copy is called in atomic context and thus scheduling is not possible. This is only a possible config on arm and i386. Although need_resched has been shown to be set for over 100 jiffies while doing the iteration in __collapse_huge_page_copy, this is better than doing if (in_atomic()) cond_resched() to cover only non-CONFIG_HIGHPTE configs.

Emergency stacks have their thread_info mostly uninitialised, which in particular means garbage preempt_count values. Emergency stack code runs with interrupts disabled entirely, and is used very rarely, so this has been unnoticed so far. It was found by a proposed new powerpc watchdog that takes a soft-NMI directly from the masked_interrupt handler and using the emergency stack. That crashed at BUG_ON(in_nmi()) in nmi_enter(). preempt_count()s were found to be garbage. To fix this, zero the entire THREAD_SIZE allocation, and initialize the thread_info.

TF is handled a bit differently for syscall and sysret, compared to the other instructions: TF is checked after the instruction completes, so that the OS can disable #DB at a syscall by adding TF to FMASK. When the sysret is executed the #DB is taken "as if" the syscall insn just completed. KVM emulates syscall so that it can trap 32-bit syscall on Intel processors. Fix the behavior, otherwise you could get #DB on a user stack which is not nice. This does not affect Linux guests, as they use an IST or task gate for #DB. This fixes CVE-2017-7518.

NPU2 requires an extra explicit flush to an active GPU PID when sending address translation shoot downs (ATSDs) to reliably flush the GPU TLB. This patch adds just such a flush at the end of each sequence of ATSDs. We can safely use PID 0 which is always reserved and active on the GPU. PID 0 is only used for init_mm which will never be a user mm on the GPU. To enforce this we add a check in pnv_npu2_init_context() just in case someone tries to use PID 0 on the GPU. Signed-off-by:

For real-space designation asces the asce origin part is only a token. The asce token origin must not be used to generate an effective address for storage references. This however is erroneously done within kvm_s390_shadow_tables(). Furthermore within the same function the wrong parts of virtual addresses are used to generate a corresponding real address (e.g. the region second index is used as region first index). Both of the above can result in incorrect address translations. Only for real space designations with a token origin of zero and addresses below one megabyte the translation was correct. Furthermore replace a "!asce.r" statement with a "!*fake" statement to make it more obvious that a specific condition has nothing to do with the architecture, but with the fake handling of real space designations.

Although idle load balancing obviously only concerns idle CPUs, it can be a disturbance on a busy nohz_full CPU. Indeed a CPU can only get rid of an idle load balancing duty once a tick fires while it runs a task and this can take a while on a nohz_full CPU. We could fix that and escape the idle load balancing duty from the very idle exit path but that would bring unecessary overhead. Lets just not bother and leave that job to housekeeping CPUs (those outside nohz_full range). The nohz_full CPUs simply don't want any disturbance. Signed-off-by:

The idle load balancing registration path assumes that we only stop the tick when the CPU is idle, ignoring the nohz full case. As a result, a nohz full CPU that is running a task may be chosen to perform idle load balancing. Lets make sure that only CPUs in dynticks idle mode can be picked as idle load balancers.

The loadavg naming code still assumes that nohz == idle whereas its code is actually handling well both nohz idle and nohz full. So lets fix the naming according to what the code actually does, to unconfuse the reader. Signed-off-by:

The i2c-imx driver incorrectly uses readb()/writeb() to read and write to the appropriate registers when performing a repeated start. The appropriate imx_i2c_read_reg()/imx_i2c_write_reg() functions should be used instead. Performing a repeated start results in a kernel panic. The platform is imx. Signed-off-by:

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe: "This contains a set of fixes for xen-blkback by way of Konrad, and a performance regression fix for blk-mq for shared tags. The latter could account for as much as a 50x reduction in performance, with the test case from the user with 500 name spaces. A more realistic setup on my end with 32 drives showed a 3.5x drop. The fix has been thoroughly tested before being committed" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: blk-mq: fix performance regression with shared tags xen-blkback: don't leak stack data via response ring xen/blkback: don't use xen_blkif_get() in xen-blkback kthread xen/blkback: don't free be structure too early xen/blkback: fix disconnect while I/Os in flight

bmap returns a dumb LBA address but not the block device that goes with that LBA. Swapfiles don't care about this and will blindly assume that the data volume is the correct blockdev, which is totally bogus for files on the rt subvolume. This results in the swap code doing IOs to arbitrary locations on the data device(!) if the passed in mapping is a realtime file, so just turn off bmap for rt files. Signed-off-by:

Commit f406270b ("ACPI / scan: Set the visited flag for all enumerated devices") caused that two group of special SPI or I2C devices do not enumerate. SPI and I2C devices are expected to be enumerated by the SPI and I2C subsystems but change caused that acpi_bus_attach() marks those devices with acpi_device_set_enumerated(). First group of devices are matched using Device Tree compatible property with special _HID "PRP0001". Those devices have matched scan handler, acpi_scan_attach_handler() retuns 1 and acpi_bus_attach() marks them with acpi_device_set_enumerated(). Second group of devices without valid _HID such as "LNXVIDEO" have device->pnp.type.platform_id set to zero and change again marks them with acpi_device_set_enumerated(). Fix this by flagging the SPI and I2C devices during struct acpi_device object initialization time and let the code in acpi_bus_attach() to go through the device_attach() and acpi_default_enumeration() path for all SPI and I2C devices.
