895a068a524e ("kernfs: make kernfs_get_active() block if the node is
deactivated but not removed") added "struct kernfs_root *root =
kernfs_root(kn);" at the head of the function; however, the parameter
@kn is checked for later implying that the function may be called with
NULL. This means that we may end up invoking kernfs_root() with NULL
which will oops. None of the existing users invokes removal with NULL
@kn, so this bug doesn't actually trigger.
We can relocate kernfs_root() invocation after NULL check; however,
allowing NULL param tends to cause more confusion than actually
helping anything. As there's no existing user, let's remove the
spurious NULL check.
This bug was detected by smatch.

Subsystems such as ALSA, DRM and others require a single card-level
device structure to represent a subsystem. However, firmware tends to
describe the individual devices and the connections between them.
Therefore, we need a way to gather up the individual component devices
together, and indicate when we have all the component devices.
We do this in DT by providing a "superdevice" node which specifies
the components, eg:
imx-drm {
compatible = "fsl,drm";
crtcs = <&ipu1>;
connectors = <&hdmi>;
};
The superdevice is declared into the component support, along with the
subcomponents. The superdevice receives callbacks to locate the
subcomponents, and identify when all components are present. At this
point, we bind the superdevice, which causes the appropriate subsystem
to be initialised in the conventional way.
When any of the components or superdevice are removed from the system,
we unbind the superdevice, thereby taking the subsystem down.

driver-core now supports synchrnous self-deletion of attributes and
the asynchrnous removal mechanism is scheduled for removal. Use it
instead of device_schedule_callback().
* Conversions in arch/s390/pci/pci_sysfs.c and
drivers/s390/block/dcssblk.c are straightforward.
* drivers/s390/cio/ccwgroup.c is a bit more tricky because
ccwgroup_notifier() was (ab)using device_schedule_callback() to
purely obtain a process context to kick off ungroup operation which
may block from a notifier callback.
Rename ccwgroup_ungroup_callback() to ccwgroup_ungroup() and make it
take ccwgroup_device * instead. The new function is now called
directly from ccwgroup_ungroup_store().
ccwgroup_notifier() chain is updated to explicitly bounce through
ccwgroup_device->ungroup_work. This also removes possible failure
from memory pressure.
Only compile-tested.

Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete
nodes including itself. This isn't straightforward because of kernfs
active reference. While a file operation is in progress, an active
reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to
drain before completing. For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock
as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself
is sitting on top of.
This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using
sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous.
While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks
synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered
the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even
started) and the removal may fail asynchronously. If a removal
operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects
the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename
onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation
reliable.
The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous.
All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation
which drops its own active ref and deactivates self. This patch
implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver
core. kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file
operations, drops the active ref and deactivates using
__kernfs_deactivate_self(), removes the self node, and restores active
ref to the dead node using __kernfs_reactivate_self() so that the ref
is balanced afterwards. __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes
an early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the
active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't
confuse the deactivation path.
This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy. The normal
removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use
kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node. The method can
invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal
removal path. kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal
deletion path will simply be ignored.
This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback(). A subtle feature of
sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations -
even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run
only once. An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return
value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return
value should proceed with actual deletion. All other instances of
kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation
which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes
and then return %false. This trivially makes all users of
kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior
even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 >
delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is
completed by one of the instances.
v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing
and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type. Fix it.

This patch implements four functions to manipulate deactivation state
- deactivate, reactivate and the _self suffixed pair. A new fields
kernfs_node->deact_depth is added so that concurrent and nested
deactivations are handled properly. kernfs_node->hash is moved so
that it's paired with the new field so that it doesn't increase the
size of kernfs_node.
A kernfs user's lock would normally nest inside active ref but during
removal the user may want to perform kernfs_remove() while holding the
said lock, which would introduce a reverse locking dependency. This
function can be used to break such reverse dependency by allowing
deactivation step to performed separately outside user's critical
section.
This will also be used implement kernfs_remove_self().

Currently, kernfs_get_active() fails if the target node is
deactivated. This is fine as a node always gets removed after
deactivation; however, we're gonna add reactivation so the assumption
won't hold. It'd be incorrect for kernfs_get_active() to fail for a
node which was deactivated only temporarily.
This patch makes kernfs_get_active() block if the node is deactivated
but not removed. If the node gets reactivated (not yet implemented),
it will be retried and succeed. If the node gets removed, it will be
woken up and fail.

kernfs_addrm_cxt and the accompanying kernfs_addrm_start/finish() were
added because there were operations which should be performed outside
kernfs_mutex after adding and removing kernfs_nodes. The necessary
operations were recorded in kernfs_addrm_cxt and performed by
kernfs_addrm_finish(); however, after the recent changes which
relocated deactivation and unmapping so that they're performed
directly during removal, the only operation kernfs_addrm_finish()
performs is kernfs_put(), which can be moved inside the removal path
too.
This patch moves the kernfs_put() of the base ref to __kernfs_remove()
and remove kernfs_addrm_cxt and kernfs_addrm_start/finish().
* kernfs_add_one() is updated to grab and release the parent's active
ref and kernfs_mutex itself. kernfs_get/put_active() and
kernfs_addrm_start/finish() invocations around it are removed from
all users.
* __kernfs_remove() puts an unlinked node directly instead of chaining
it to kernfs_addrm_cxt. Its callers are updated to grab and release
kernfs_mutex instead of calling kernfs_addrm_start/finish() around
it.

kernfs_unmap_bin_file() is supposed to unmap all memory mappings of
the target file before kernfs_remove() finishes; however, it currently
is being called from kernfs_addrm_finish() and has the same race
problem as the original implementation of deactivation when there are
multiple removers - only the remover which snatches the node to its
addrm_cxt->removed list is guaranteed to wait for its completion
before returning.
It can be fixed by moving kernfs_unmap_bin_file() invocation from
kernfs_addrm_finish() to __kernfs_remove(). The function may be
called multiple times but that shouldn't do any harm.
We end up dropping kernfs_mutex in the removal loop and the node may
be removed inbetween by someone else. kernfs_unlink_sibling() is
updated to test whether the node has already been removed and return
accordingly. __kernfs_remove() in turn performs post-unlinking
cleanup only if it actually unlinked the node.
KERNFS_HAS_MMAP test is moved out of the unmap function into
__kernfs_remove() so that we don't unlock kernfs_mutex unnecessarily.
While at it, drop the now meaningless "bin" qualifier from the
function name.
v2: Rewritten to fit the v2 restructuring of removal path. HAS_MMAP
test relocated.

The recursive nature of kernfs_remove() means that, even if
kernfs_remove() is not allowed to be called multiple times on the same
node, there may be race conditions between removal of parent and its
descendants. While we can claim that kernfs_remove() shouldn't be
called on one of the descendants while the removal of an ancestor is
in progress, such rule is unnecessarily restrictive and very difficult
to enforce. It's better to simply allow invoking kernfs_remove() as
the caller sees fit as long as the caller ensures that the node is
accessible.
The current behavior in such situations is broken. Whoever enters
removal path first takes the node off the hierarchy and then
deactivates. Following removers either return as soon as it notices
that it's not the first one or can't even find the target node as it
has already been removed from the hierarchy. In both cases, the
following removers may finish prematurely while the nodes which should
be removed and drained are still being processed by the first one.
This patch restructures so that multiple removers, whether through
recursion or direction invocation, always follow the following rules.
* When there are multiple concurrent removers, only one puts the base
ref.
* Regardless of which one puts the base ref, all removers are blocked
until the target node is fully deactivated and removed.
To achieve the above, removal path now first deactivates the subtree,
drains it and then unlinks one-by-one. __kernfs_deactivate() is
called directly from __kernfs_removal() and drops and regrabs
kernfs_mutex for each descendant to drain active refs. As this means
that multiple removers can enter __kernfs_deactivate() for the same
node, the function is updated so that it can handle multiple
deactivators of the same node - only one actually deactivates but all
wait till drain completion.
The restructured removal path guarantees that a removed node gets
unlinked only after the node is deactivated and drained. Combined
with proper multiple deactivator handling, this guarantees that any
invocation of kernfs_remove() returns only after the node itself and
all its descendants are deactivated, drained and removed.
v2: Draining separated into a separate loop (used to be in the same
loop as unlink) and done from __kernfs_deactivate(). This is to
allow exposing deactivation as a separate interface later.
Root node removal was broken in v1 patch. Fixed.

KERNFS_REMOVED is used to mark half-initialized and dying nodes so
that they don't show up in lookups and deny adding new nodes under or
renaming it; however, its role overlaps those of deactivation and
removal from rbtree.
It's necessary to deny addition of new children while removal is in
progress; however, this role considerably intersects with deactivation
- KERNFS_REMOVED prevents new children while deactivation prevents new
file operations. There's no reason to have them separate making
things more complex than necessary.
KERNFS_REMOVED is also used to decide whether a node is still visible
to vfs layer, which is rather redundant as equivalent determination
can be made by testing whether the node is on its parent's children
rbtree or not.
This patch removes KERNFS_REMOVED.
* Instead of KERNFS_REMOVED, each node now starts its life
deactivated. This means that we now use both atomic_add() and
atomic_sub() on KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS, which is INT_MIN. The compiler
generates an overflow warnings when negating INT_MIN as the negation
can't be represented as a positive number. Nothing is actually
broken but let's bump BIAS by one to avoid the warnings for archs
which negates the subtrahend..
* KERNFS_REMOVED tests in add and rename paths are replaced with
kernfs_get/put_active() of the target nodes. Due to the way the add
path is structured now, active ref handling is done in the callers
of kernfs_add_one(). This will be consolidated up later.
* kernfs_remove_one() is updated to deactivate instead of setting
KERNFS_REMOVED. This removes deactivation from kernfs_deactivate(),
which is now renamed to kernfs_drain().
* kernfs_dop_revalidate() now tests RB_EMPTY_NODE(&kn->rb) instead of
KERNFS_REMOVED and KERNFS_REMOVED test in kernfs_dir_pos() is
dropped. A node which is removed from the children rbtree is not
included in the iteration in the first place. This means that a
node may be visible through vfs a bit longer - it's now also visible
after deactivation until the actual removal. This slightly enlarged
window difference doesn't make any difference to the userland.
* Sanity check on KERNFS_REMOVED in kernfs_put() is replaced with
checks on the active ref.
* Some comment style updates in the affected area.
v2: Reordered before removal path restructuring. kernfs_active()
dropped and kernfs_get/put_active() used instead. RB_EMPTY_NODE()
used in the lookup paths.

There currently are two mechanisms gating active ref lockdep
annotations - KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag and KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF type mask.
The former disables lockdep annotations in kernfs_get/put_active()
while the latter disables all of kernfs_deactivate().
While KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF also behaves as an optimization to skip the
deactivation step for non-file nodes, the benefit is marginal and it
needlessly diverges code paths. Let's drop KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF and use
KERNFS_LOCKDEP in kernfs_deactivate() too.
While at it, add a test helper kernfs_lockdep() to test KERNFS_LOCKDEP
flag so that it's more convenient and the related code can be compiled
out when not enabled.

kernfs_node->u.completion is used to notify deactivation completion
from kernfs_put_active() to kernfs_deactivate(). We now allow
multiple racing removals of the same node and the current removal
scheme is no longer correct - kernfs_remove() invocation may return
before the node is properly deactivated if it races against another
removal. The removal path will be restructured to address the issue.
To help such restructure which requires supporting multiple waiters,
this patch replaces kernfs_node->u.completion with
kernfs_root->deactivate_waitq. This makes deactivation event
notifications share a per-root waitqueue_head; however, the wait path
is quite cold and this will also allow shaving one pointer off
kernfs_node.

When kernfs_seq_start() fails to obtain an active reference, it
returns ERR_PTR(-ENODEV). kernfs_seq_stop() is then invoked with the
error pointer value; however, it still proceeds to invoke
kernfs_put_active() on the node leading to unbalanced put.
If kernfs_seq_stop() is called even after active ref failure, it
should skip invocation of @ops->seq_stop() and put_active.
Unfortunately, this is a bit complicated because active ref failure
isn't the only thing which may fail with ERR_PTR(-ENODEV).
@ops->seq_start/next() may also fail with the error value and
kernfs_seq_stop() doesn't have a way to tell apart those failures.
Work it around by factoring out the active part of kernfs_seq_stop()
into kernfs_seq_stop_active() and invoking it directly if
@ops->seq_start/next() fail with ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) and updating
kernfs_seq_stop() to skip kernfs_seq_stop_active() on
ERR_PTR(-ENODEV). This is a bit nasty but ensures that the active put
is skipped iff get_active failed in kernfs_seq_start().

Avoid that bus_unregister() triggers a use-after-free with
CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE=y. This patch avoids that the
following sequence triggers a kernel crash with memory poisoning
enabled:
* bus_register()
* driver_register()
* driver_unregister()
* bus_unregister()
The above sequence causes the bus private data to be freed from
inside the bus_unregister() call although it is not guaranteed in
that function that the reference count on the bus private data has
dropped to zero. As an example, with CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE=y
the ${bus}/drivers kobject is still holding a reference on
bus->p->subsys.kobj via its parent pointer at the time the bus
private data is freed. Fix this by deferring freeing the bus private
data until the last kobject_put() call on bus->p->subsys.kobj.
The kernel oops triggered by the above sequence and with memory
poisoning enabled and that is fixed by this patch is as follows:

migratepage test, as well as a number of repetitions of a few simple

second patch makes aio_migratepage() much more paranoid and robust"

Since commit 36bc08cc01709 ("fs/aio: Add support to aio ring pages
migration") the aio ring setup code has used a special per-ring backing
inode for the page allocations, rather than just using random anonymous
pages.
However, rather than remembering the pages as it allocated them, it
would allocate the pages, insert them into the file mapping (dirty, so
that they couldn't be free'd), and then forget about them. And then to
look them up again, it would mmap the mapping, and then use
"get_user_pages()" to get back an array of the pages we just created.
Now, not only is that incredibly inefficient, it also leaked all the
pages if the mmap failed (which could happen due to excessive number of
mappings, for example).
So clean it all up, making it much more straightforward. Also remove
some left-overs of the previous (broken) mm_populate() usage that was
removed in commit d6c355c7dabc ("aio: fix race in ring buffer page
lookup introduced by page migration support") but left the pointless and
now misleading MAP_POPULATE flag around.

The arbitrary restriction on page counts offered by the core
migrate_page_move_mapping() code results in rather suspicious looking
fiddling with page reference counts in the aio_migratepage() operation.
To fix this, make migrate_page_move_mapping() take an extra_count parameter
that allows aio to tell the code about its own reference count on the page
being migrated.
While cleaning up aio_migratepage(), make it validate that the old page
being passed in is actually what aio_migratepage() expects to prevent
misbehaviour in the case of races.

e34ecee2ae791df674dfb466ce40692ca6218e43 reworked the percpu reference
counting to correct a bug trinity found. Unfortunately, the change lead
to kioctxes being leaked because there was no final reference count to
put. Add that reference count back in to fix things.

Commit 1bf49dd4be0b ("./Makefile: export initial ramdisk compression
config option") started setting the INITRD_COMPRESS environment variable
depending on which decompression models the kernel had available.
That is completely broken.
For example, we by default have CONFIG_RD_LZ4 enabled, and are able to
decompress such an initrd, but the user tools to *create* such an initrd
may not be availble. So trying to tell dracut to generate an
lz4-compressed image just because we can decode such an image is
completely inappropriate.

In struct page we have enough space to fit long-size page->ptl there,
but we use dynamically-allocated page->ptl if size(spinlock_t) is larger
than sizeof(int).
It hurts 64-bit architectures with CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, where
sizeof(spinlock_t) == 8, but it easily fits into struct page.

Commit 81c0a2bb515f ("mm: page_alloc: fair zone allocator policy") meant
to bring aging fairness among zones in system, but it was overzealous
and badly regressed basic workloads on NUMA systems.
Due to the way kswapd and page allocator interacts, we still want to
make sure that all zones in any given node are used equally for all
allocations to maximize memory utilization and prevent thrashing on the
highest zone in the node.
While the same principle applies to NUMA nodes - memory utilization is
obviously improved by spreading allocations throughout all nodes -
remote references can be costly and so many workloads prefer locality
over memory utilization. The original change assumed that
zone_reclaim_mode would be a good enough predictor for that, but it
turned out to be as indicative as a coin flip.
Revert the NUMA aspect of the fairness until we can find a proper way to
make it configurable and agree on a sane default.

Sasha Levin found a NULL pointer dereference that is due to a missing
page table lock, which in turn is due to the pmd entry in question being
a transparent huge-table entry.
The code - introduced in commit 1998cc048901 ("mm: make
madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support swap file prefetch") - correctly checks
for this situation using pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), but it
turns out that that function doesn't work correctly.
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() expected that pmd_bad() would
trigger if the transparent hugepage bit was set, but it doesn't do that
if pmd_numa() is also set. Note that the NUMA bit only gets set on real
NUMA machines, so people trying to reproduce this on most normal
development systems would never actually trigger this.
Fix it by removing the very subtle (and subtly incorrect) expectation,
and instead just checking pmd_trans_huge() explicitly.
