Commit: e9149858 ("locking/lockdep/selftests: Add mixed read-write ABBA tests") adds an explicit FAILURE to the locking selftest but overlooked the fact that this kills lockdep. Fudge the test to avoid this.

In theory, COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK() should never affect the stack allocation of the caller. However, on some compilers, a temporary structure was allocated for the return value of COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK(). For example in write_journal() with LOCKDEP_COMPLETIONS=y (GCC is 7.1.1): io_comp.comp = COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK(io_comp.comp); 2462: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 2467 <write_journal+0x47> 2467: 48 8d 85 80 fd ff ff lea -0x280(%rbp),%rax 246e: 48 c7 c6 00 00 00 00 mov $0x0,%rsi 2475: 48 c7 c2 00 00 00 00 mov $0x0,%rdx x->done = 0; 247c: c7 85 90 fd ff ff 00 movl $0x0,-0x270(%rbp) 2483: 00 00 00 init_waitqueue_head(&x->wait); 2486: 48 8d 78 18 lea 0x18(%rax),%rdi 248a: e8 00 00 00 00 callq 248f <write_journal+0x6f> if (commit_start + commit_sections <= ic->journal_sections) { 248f: 41 8b 87 a8 00 00 00 mov 0xa8(%r15),%eax io_comp.comp = COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK(io_comp.comp); 2496: 48 8d bd e8 f9 ff ff lea -0x618(%rbp),%rdi 249d: 48 8d b5 90 fd ff ff lea -0x270(%rbp),%rsi 24a4: b9 17 00 00 00 mov $0x17,%ecx 24a9: f3 48 a5 rep movsq %ds:(%rsi),%es:(%rdi) if (commit_start + commit_sections <= ic->journal_sections) { 24ac: 41 39 c6 cmp %eax,%r14d io_comp.comp = COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK(io_comp.comp); 24af: 48 8d bd 90 fd ff ff lea -0x270(%rbp),%rdi 24b6: 48 8d b5 e8 f9 ff ff lea -0x618(%rbp),%rsi 24bd: b9 17 00 00 00 mov $0x17,%ecx 24c2: f3 48 a5 rep movsq %ds:(%rsi),%es:(%rdi) We can obviously see the temporary structure allocated, and the compiler also does two meaningless memcpy with "rep movsq". And according to: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Statement-Exprs.html#Statement-Exprs The return value of a statement expression is returned by value, so the temporary variable is created in COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK(), and that's why the temporary structures are allocted. To fix this, make the brace block in COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK() return a pointer and dereference it outside the block rather than return the whole structure, in this way, we are able to teach the compiler not to do the unnecessary stack allocation. This could also reduce the stack size even if !LOCKDEP, for example in write_journal(), compiled with gcc 7.1.1, the result of command: objdump -d drivers/md/dm-integrity.o | ./scripts/checkstack.pl x86 before: 0x0000246a write_journal [dm-integrity.o]: 696 after: 0x00002b7a write_journal [dm-integrity.o]: 296 Reported-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Byungchul Park <byungchul.park@lge.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: walken@google.com Cc: willy@infradead.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170823152542.5150-3-boqun.feng@gmail.comSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK() is supposed to be used as an initializer, in other words, it should only be used in assignment expressions or compound literals. So the usage in drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c: COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK(flush.cmp); ... is inappropriate. Besides, this usage could also break the build for another fix that reduces stack sizes caused by COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK(), because that fix changes COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK() from rvalue to lvalue, and usage as above will report the following error: drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c: In function 'acpi_nfit_flush_probe': include/linux/completion.h:77:3: error: value computed is not used [-Werror=unused-value] (*({ init_completion(&work); &work; })) This patch fixes this by replacing COMPLETION_INITIALIZER_ONSTACK() with init_completion() in acpi_nfit_flush_probe(), which does the same initialization without any other problems.

All the locking related cmpxchg's in the following functions are replaced with the _acquire variants: - pv_queued_spin_steal_lock() - trylock_clear_pending() This change should help performance on architectures that use LL/SC. The cmpxchg in pv_kick_node() is replaced with a relaxed version with explicit memory barrier to make sure that it is fully ordered in the writing of next->lock and the reading of pn->state whether the cmpxchg is a success or failure without affecting performance in non-LL/SC architectures. On a 2-socket 12-core 96-thread Power8 system with pvqspinlock explicitly enabled, the performance of a locking microbenchmark with and without this patch on a 4.13-rc4 kernel with Xinhui's PPC qspinlock patch were as follows: # of thread w/o patch with patch % Change ----------- --------- ---------- -------- 8 5054.8 Mop/s 5209.4 Mop/s +3.1% 16 3985.0 Mop/s 4015.0 Mop/s +0.8% 32 2378.2 Mop/s 2396.0 Mop/s +0.7% Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Andrea Parri <parri.andrea@gmail.com> Cc: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Pan Xinhui <xinhui@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1502741222-24360-1-git-send-email-longman@redhat.comSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

struct call_single_data is used in IPIs to transfer information between CPUs. Its size is bigger than sizeof(unsigned long) and less than cache line size. Currently it is not allocated with any explicit alignment requirements. This makes it possible for allocated call_single_data to cross two cache lines, which results in double the number of the cache lines that need to be transferred among CPUs. This can be fixed by requiring call_single_data to be aligned with the size of call_single_data. Currently the size of call_single_data is the power of 2. If we add new fields to call_single_data, we may need to add padding to make sure the size of new definition is the power of 2 as well. Fortunately, this is enforced by GCC, which will report bad sizes. To set alignment requirements of call_single_data to the size of call_single_data, a struct definition and a typedef is used. To test the effect of the patch, I used the vm-scalability multiple thread swap test case (swap-w-seq-mt). The test will create multiple threads and each thread will eat memory until all RAM and part of swap is used, so that huge number of IPIs are triggered when unmapping memory. In the test, the throughput of memory writing improves ~5% compared with misaligned call_single_data, because of faster IPIs.

Where XHLOCK_{SOFT,HARD} are save/restore points in the xhlocks[] to ensure the temporal IRQ events don't interact with task state, the XHLOCK_PROC is a fundament different beast that just happens to share the interface. The purpose of XHLOCK_PROC is to annotate independent execution inside one task. For example workqueues, each work should appear to run in its own 'pristine' 'task'. Remove XHLOCK_PROC in favour of its own interface to avoid confusion.

There is code duplicated over all architecture's headers for futex_atomic_op_inuser. Namely op decoding, access_ok check for uaddr, and comparison of the result. Remove this duplication and leave up to the arches only the needed assembly which is now in arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser. This effectively distributes the Will Deacon's arm64 fix for undefined behaviour reported by UBSAN to all architectures. The fix was done in commit 5f16a046 (arm64: futex: Fix undefined behaviour with FUTEX_OP_OPARG_SHIFT usage). Look there for an example dump. And as suggested by Thomas, check for negative oparg too, because it was also reported to cause undefined behaviour report. Note that s390 removed access_ok check in d12a2970 ("s390/uaccess: remove pointless access_ok() checks") as access_ok there returns true. We introduce it back to the helper for the sake of simplicity (it gets optimized away anyway).

The new completion/crossrelease annotations interact unfavourable with the extant flush_work()/flush_workqueue() annotations. The problem is that when a single work class does: wait_for_completion(&C) and complete(&C) in different executions, we'll build dependencies like: lock_map_acquire(W) complete_acquire(C) and lock_map_acquire(W) complete_release(C) which results in the dependency chain: W->C->W, which lockdep thinks spells deadlock, even though there is no deadlock potential since works are ran concurrently. One possibility would be to change the work 'lock' to recursive-read, but that would mean hitting a lockdep limitation on recursive locks. Also, unconditinoally switching to recursive-read here would fail to detect the actual deadlock on single-threaded workqueues, which do have a problem with this. For now, forcefully disregard these locks for crossrelease.

The flush_work() annotation as introduced by commit: e159489b ("workqueue: relax lockdep annotation on flush_work()") hits on the lockdep problem with recursive read locks. The situation as described is: Work W1: Work W2: Task: ARR(Q) ARR(Q) flush_workqueue(Q) A(W1) A(W2) A(Q) flush_work(W2) R(Q) A(W2) R(W2) if (special) A(Q) else ARR(Q) R(Q) where: A - acquire, ARR - acquire-read-recursive, R - release. Where under 'special' conditions we want to trigger a lock recursion deadlock, but otherwise allow the flush_work(). The allowing is done by using recursive read locks (ARR), but lockdep is broken for recursive stuff. However, there appears to be no need to acquire the lock if we're not 'special', so if we remove the 'else' clause things become much simpler and no longer need the recursion thing at all.

The implementation of TIOCGPTPEER has two issues. When /dev/ptmx (as opposed to /dev/pts/ptmx) is opened the wrong vfsmount is passed to dentry_open. Which results in the kernel displaying the wrong pathname for the peer. The second is simply by caching the vfsmount and dentry of the peer it leaves them open, in a way they were not previously Which because of the inreased reference counts can cause unnecessary behaviour differences resulting in regressions. To fix these move the ioctl into tty_io.c at a generic level allowing the ioctl to have access to the struct file on which the ioctl is being called. This allows the path of the slave to be derived when opening the slave through TIOCGPTPEER instead of requiring the path to the slave be cached. Thus removing the need for caching the path. A new function devpts_ptmx_path is factored out of devpts_acquire and used to implement a function devpts_mntget. The new function devpts_mntget takes a filp to perform the lookup on and fsi so that it can confirm that the superblock that is found by devpts_ptmx_path is the proper superblock. v2: Lots of fixes to make the code actually work v3: Suggestions by Linus - Removed the unnecessary initialization of filp in ptm_open_peer - Simplified devpts_ptmx_path as gotos are no longer required [ This is the fix for the issue that was reverted in commit 143c97cc, but this time without breaking 'pbuilder' due to increased reference counts - Linus ] Fixes: 54ebbfb1 ("tty: add TIOCGPTPEER ioctl") Reported-by: Christian Brauner <christian.brauner@canonical.com> Reported-and-tested-by: Stefan Lippers-Hollmann <s.l-h@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Commit 44c58487 ("IB/core: Define 'ib' and 'roce' rdma_ah_attr types") introduced the concept of type in ah_attr: * During ib_register_device, each port is checked for its type which is stored in ib_device's port_immutable array. * During uverbs' modify_qp, the type is inferred using the port number in ib_uverbs_qp_dest struct (address vector) by accessing the relevant port_immutable array and the type is passed on to providers. IB spec (version 1.3) enforces a valid port value only in Reset to Init. During Init to RTR, the address vector must be valid but port number is not mentioned as a field in the address vector, so its value is not validated, which leads to accesses to a non-allocated memory when inferring the port type. Save the real port number in ib_qp during modify to Init (when the comp_mask indicates that the port number is valid) and use this value to infer the port type. Avoid copying the address vector fields if the matching bit is not set in the attr_mask. Address vector can't be modified before the port, so no valid flow is affected.

In the normal case, 0 matches BLK_STS_OK, so we don't observe any effects of the missing conversion, but in case of errors or passes through the repair/retry paths, the errors get mixed up.

There's a small race when function graph shutsdown and the calling of the registered function graph entry callback. The callback must not reference the task's ret_stack without first checking that it is not NULL. Note, when a ret_stack is allocated for a task, it stays allocated until the task exits. The problem here, is that function_graph is shutdown, and a new task was created, which doesn't have its ret_stack allocated. But since some of the functions are still being traced, the callbacks can still be called. The normal function_graph code handles this, but starting with commit 8861dd30 ("ftrace: Access ret_stack->subtime only in the function profiler") the profiler code references the ret_stack on function entry, but doesn't check if it is NULL first.

This reverts commit c8c03f18. It turns out that while fixing the ptmx file descriptor to have the correct 'struct path' to the associated slave pty is a really good thing, it breaks some user space tools for a very annoying reason. The problem is that /dev/ptmx and its associated slave pty (/dev/pts/X) are on different mounts. That was what caused us to have the wrong path in the first place (we would mix up the vfsmount of the 'ptmx' node, with the dentry of the pty slave node), but it also means that now while we use the right vfsmount, having the pty master open also keeps the pts mount busy. And it turn sout that that makes 'pbuilder' very unhappy, as noted by Stefan Lippers-Hollmann: "This patch introduces a regression for me when using pbuilder 0.228.7[2] (a helper to build Debian packages in a chroot and to create and update its chroots) when trying to umount /dev/ptmx (inside the chroot) on Debian/ unstable (full log and pbuilder configuration file[3] attached). [...] Setting up build-essential (12.3) ... Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.24-15) ... I: unmounting dev/ptmx filesystem W: Could not unmount dev/ptmx: umount: /var/cache/pbuilder/build/1340/dev/ptmx: target is busy (In some cases useful info about processes that use the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1).)" apparently pbuilder tries to unmount the /dev/pts filesystem while still holding at least one master node open, which is arguably not very nice, but we don't break user space even when fixing other bugs. So this commit has to be reverted. I'll try to figure out a way to avoid caching the path to the slave pty in the master pty. The only thing that actually wants that slave pty path is the "TIOCGPTPEER" ioctl, and I think we could just recreate the path at that time.

CEC support was added for Exynos5 in 4.13, but for the Odroids we need to set 'needs-hpd' as well since CEC is disabled when there is no HDMI hotplug signal, just as for the exynos4 Odroid-U3. This is due to the level-shifter that is disabled when there is no HPD, thus blocking the CEC signal as well. Same close-but-no-cigar board design as the Odroid-U3. Tested with my Odroid XU4.

The check if (!fwnode_property_read_u32(fwnode, prop_name, &nr)) continue; is faulty: fwnode_property_read_u32() returns zero on success, not on failure, leading to comparing values only if the searched property was not found.
