syzbot has noticed that a specially crafted library can easily hit VM_BUG_ON in __mm_populate kernel BUG at mm/gup.c:1242! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP CPU: 2 PID: 9667 Comm: a.out Not tainted 4.18.0-rc3 #644 Hardware name: VMware, Inc.

There is no reason to bug on that though. do_brk_flags already aligns the length properly so the mapping is expanded as it should. All we need is to tell mm_populate about it. Besides that there is absolutely no reason to to bug_on in the first place. The worst thing that could happen is that the last page wouldn't get populated and that is far from putting system into an inconsistent state. Fix the issue by moving the length sanitization code from do_brk_flags up to vm_brk_flags. The only other caller of do_brk_flags is brk syscall entry and it makes sure to provide the proper length so t here is no need for sanitation and so we can use do_brk_flags without it. Also remove the bogus BUG_ONs.

- Build the kernel without the fix - Add some flag to the purgatories KBUILD_CFLAGS,I used -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables - Re-build the kernel When you look at makes output you see that sha256.o is not re-build in the last step. Also readelf -S still shows the .eh_frame section for sha256.o. With the fix sha256.o is rebuilt in the last step. Without FORCE make does not detect changes only made to the command line options. So object files might not be re-built even when they should be. Fix this by adding FORCE where it is missing.

In my testing, the second mount will fail after umounting successfully. The reason is that we put refcount of trans_mod in the correct case rather than the error case in parse_opts() at last. That will cause the refcount decrease to -1, and when we try to get trans_mod again in try_module_get(), we could only increase refcount to 0 which will cause failure as follows: parse_opts v9fs_get_trans_by_name try_module_get : return NULL to caller which cause error So we should put refcount of trans_mod in error case.

Nicholas Piggin authored
The mmu_gather APIs keep track of the invalidated address range including the span covered by invalidated page table pages. Ranges covered by page tables but not ptes (and therefore no TLBs) still need to be invalidated because some architectures (x86) can cache intermediate page table entries, and invalidate those with normal TLB invalidation instructions to be almost-backward-compatible. Architectures which don't cache intermediate page table entries, or which invalidate these caches separately from TLB invalidation, do not require TLB invalidation range expanded over page tables. Allow architectures to supply their own p??_free_tlb functions, which can avoid the __tlb_adjust_range.

The autofs subsystem does not check that the "path" parameter is present for all cases where it is required when it is passed in via the "param" struct. In particular it isn't checked for the AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_OPENMOUNT_CMD ioctl command. To solve it, modify validate_dev_ioctl(function to check that a path has been provided for ioctl commands that require it.

Thomas reports: "While looking around in /proc on my v4.14.52 system I noticed that all processes got a lot of "Locked" memory in /proc/*/smaps. A lot more memory than a regular user can usually lock with mlock(). Commit 493b0e9d (in v4.14-rc1) seems to have changed the behavior of "Locked". Before that commit the code was like this. Notice the VM_LOCKED check. (vma->vm_flags & VM_LOCKED) ? (unsigned long)(mss.pss >> (10 + PSS_SHIFT)) : 0); After that commit Locked is now the same as Pss: (unsigned long)(mss->pss >> (10 + PSS_SHIFT))); This looks like a mistake." Indeed, the commit has added mss->pss_locked with the correct value that depends on VM_LOCKED, but forgot to actually use it. Fix it.

KVM guests on s390 can notify the host of unused pages. This can result in pte_unused callbacks to be true for KVM guest memory. If a page is unused (checked with pte_unused) we might drop this page instead of paging it. This can have side-effects on userfaultd, when the page in question was already migrated: The next access of that page will trigger a fault and a user fault instead of faulting in a new and empty zero page. As QEMU does not expect a userfault on an already migrated page this migration will fail. The most straightforward solution is to ignore the pte_unused hint if a userfault context is active for this VMA.

Pull tracing fixlet from Steven Rostedt: "Joel Fernandes asked to add a feature in tracing that Android had its own patch internally for. I took it back in 4.13. Now he realizes that he had a mistake, and swapped the values from what Android had. This means that the old Android tools will break when using a new kernel that has the new feature on it. The options are: 1. To swap it back to what Android wants. 2. Add a command line option or something to do the swap 3. Just let Android carry a patch that swaps it back Since it requires setting a tracing option to enable this anyway, I doubt there are other users of this than Android. Thus, I've decided to take option 1.

From v4.13 onwards things will break. The chrome browser's tracing tools also embed the systrace viewer which uses the legacy TGID format and updates to that are known to be difficult to make. Considering this, I suggest we make this change to the upstream kernel and backport it to all Android kernels. I believe this feature is merged recently enough into the upstream kernel that it shouldn't be a problem. Also logically, IMO it makes more sense to group the TGID with the TASK-PID and the CPU after these.

In 2016 GNU Make made a backwards incompatible change to the way '#' characters were handled in Makefiles when used inside functions or macros: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/make.git/commit/?id=c6966b323811c37acedff05b57 Due to this change, when attempting to run `make prepare' I get a spurious make syntax error: /home/earnest/linux/tools/objtool/.fixdep.o.cmd:1: *** missing separator. Stop. When inspecting `.fixdep.o.cmd' it includes two lines which use unescaped comment characters at the top: \# cannot find fixdep (/home/earnest/linux/tools/objtool//fixdep) \# using basic dep data This is because `tools/build/Build.include' prints these '\#' characters: printf '\# cannot find fixdep (%s)\n' $(fixdep) > $(dot-target).cmd; \ printf '\# using basic dep data\n\n' >> $(dot-target).cmd; \ This completes commit 9564a8cf ("Kbuild: fix # escaping in .cmd files for future Make").

Dynamic ftrace requires modifying the code segments that are usually set to read-only. To do this, a per arch function is called both before and after the ftrace modifications are performed. The "before" function will set kernel code text to read-write to allow for ftrace to make the modifications, and the "after" function will set the kernel code text back to "read-only" to keep the kernel code text protected. The issue happens when dynamic ftrace is tested at boot up. The test is done before the kernel code text has been set to read-only. But the "before" and "after" calls are still performed. The "after" call will change the kernel code text to read-only prematurely, and other boot code that expects this code to be read-write will fail. The solution is to add a variable that is set when the kernel code text is expected to be converted to read-only, and make the ftrace "before" and "after" calls do nothing if that variable is not yet set. This is similar to the x86 solution from commit 16239630 ("ftrace, x86: make kernel text writable only for conversions").
