2013-09-11kernel/smp.c: quit unconditionally enabling irqs in on_each_cpu_mask().David Daney
As in commit f21afc25f9ed ("smp.h: Use local_irq_{save,restore}() in !SMP version of on_each_cpu()"), we don't want to enable irqs if they are not already enabled. I don't know of any bugs currently caused by this unconditional local_irq_enable(), but I want to use this function in MIPS/OCTEON early boot (when we have early_boot_irqs_disabled). This also makes this function have similar semantics to on_each_cpu() which is good in itself.

2013-09-11smp.h: move !SMP version of on_each_cpu() out-of-lineDavid Daney
All of the other non-trivial !SMP versions of functions in smp.h are out-of-line in up.c. Move on_each_cpu() there as well. This allows us to get rid of the #include <linux/irqflags.h>. The drawback is that this makes both the x86_64 and i386 defconfig !SMP kernels about 200 bytes larger each.

As in commit f21afc25f9ed ("smp.h: Use local_irq_{save,restore}() in !SMP version of on_each_cpu()"), we don't want to enable irqs if they are not already enabled. There are currently no known problematical callers of these functions, but since it is a known failure pattern, we preemptively fix them. Since they are not trivial functions, make them non-inline by moving them to up.c. This also makes it so we don't have to fix #include dependancies for preempt_{disable,enable}.

2013-09-11kernel/spinlock.c: add default arch_*_relax definitions for GENERIC_LOCKBREAKWill Deacon
When running with GENERIC_LOCKBREAK=y, the locking implementations emit calls to arch_{read,write,spin}_relax when spinning on a contended lock in order to allow architectures to favour the CPU owning the lock if possible. In reality, everybody apart from PowerPC and S390 just does cpu_relax() here, so make that the default behaviour and allow it to be overridden if required.

2013-09-11kernel-wide: fix missing validations on __get/__put/__copy_to/__copy_from_user()Mathieu Desnoyers
I found the following pattern that leads in to interesting findings: grep -r "ret.*|=.*__put_user" * grep -r "ret.*|=.*__get_user" * grep -r "ret.*|=.*__copy" * The __put_user() calls in compat_ioctl.c, ptrace compat, signal compat, since those appear in compat code, we could probably expect the kernel addresses not to be reachable in the lower 32-bit range, so I think they might not be exploitable. For the "__get_user" cases, I don't think those are exploitable: the worse that can happen is that the kernel will copy kernel memory into in-kernel buffers, and will fail immediately afterward. The alpha csum_partial_copy_from_user() seems to be missing the access_ok() check entirely. The fix is inspired from x86. This could lead to information leak on alpha. I also noticed that many architectures map csum_partial_copy_from_user() to csum_partial_copy_generic(), but I wonder if the latter is performing the access checks on every architectures.

2013-09-11pnp: change pnp bus pm_ops to invoke pnp driver dev_pm_ops if specifiedShuah Khan

If dev_pm_ops don't exist, then call use legacy pm_ops. Without this change, pnp_driver dev_pm_ops will not get called. In addition to the pnp driver bus pm_ops change to invoke driver dev_pm_ops, this patch set contains changes to rtc-cmos, tpm_tis, and apple-gmux pnp drivers to convert from legacy pm_ops to dev_pm_ops.

2013-09-11memcg: fix multiple large threshold notificationsGreg Thelen
A memory cgroup with (1) multiple threshold notifications and (2) at least one threshold >=2G was not reliable. Specifically the notifications would either not fire or would not fire in the proper order. The __mem_cgroup_threshold() signaling logic depends on keeping 64 bit thresholds in sorted order. mem_cgroup_usage_register_event() sorts them with compare_thresholds(), which returns the difference of two 64 bit thresholds as an int. If the difference is positive but has bit[31] set, then sort() treats the difference as negative and breaks sort order. This fix compares the two arbitrary 64 bit thresholds returning the classic -1, 0, 1 result. The test below sets two notifications (at 0x1000 and 0x81001000): cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory mkdir x for x in 4096 2164264960; do cgroup_event_listener x/memory.usage_in_bytes $x | sed "s/^/$x listener:/" & done echo $$ > x/cgroup.procs anon_leaker 500M v3.11-rc7 fails to signal the 4096 event listener: Leaking... Done leaking pages. Patched v3.11-rc7 properly notifies: Leaking... 4096 listener:2013:8:31:14:13:36 Done leaking pages. The fixed bug is old.

2013-09-11mm/hwpoison.c: fix held reference count after unpoisoning empty zero pageWanpeng Li
madvise hwpoison inject will poison the read-only empty zero page if there is no write access before poison. Empty zero page reference count will be increased for hwpoison, subsequent poison zero page will return directly since page has already been set PG_hwpoison, however, page reference count is still increased by get_user_pages_fast. The unpoison process will unpoison the empty zero page and decrease the reference count successfully for the fist time, however, subsequent unpoison empty zero page will return directly since page has already been unpoisoned and without decrease the page reference count of empty zero page.

2013-09-11mm/hwpoison: don't set migration type twice to avoid holding heavily contend ↵Wanpeng Li
zone->lock Set pageblock migration type will hold zone->lock which is heavy contended in system to avoid race. However, soft offline page will set pageblock migration type twice during get page if the page is in used, not hugetlbfs page and not on lru list. There is unnecessary to set the pageblock migration type and hold heavy contended zone->lock again if the first round get page have already set the pageblock to right migration type. The trick here is migration type is MIGRATE_ISOLATE. There are other two parts can change MIGRATE_ISOLATE except hwpoison. One is memory hoplug, however, we hold lock_memory_hotplug() which avoid race. The second is CMA which umovable page allocation requst can't fallback to. So it's safe here.

2013-09-11mm/hwpoison: fix race against poison thpWanpeng Li
There is a race between hwpoison page and unpoison page, memory_failure set the page hwpoison and increase num_poisoned_pages without hold page lock, and one page count will be accounted against thp for num_poisoned_pages. However, unpoison can occur before memory_failure hold page lock and split transparent hugepage, unpoison will decrease num_poisoned_pages by 1 << compound_order since memory_failure has not yet split transparent hugepage with page lock held. That means we account one page for hwpoison and 1 << compound_order for unpoison. This patch fix it by inserting a PageTransHuge check before doing TestClearPageHWPoison, unpoison failed without clearing PageHWPoison and decreasing num_poisoned_pages.

In addition, transparent hugepages will be splitted in hwpoison handler and just one subpage will be poisoned. There is unnecessary to hold compound lock for hugetlbfs page.

2013-09-11mm/hwpoison: fix loss of PG_dirty for errors on mlocked pagesWanpeng Li
memory_failure() store the page flag of the error page before doing unmap, and (only) if the first check with page flags at the time decided the error page is unknown, it do the second check with the stored page flag since memory_failure() does unmapping of the error pages before doing page_action(). This unmapping changes the page state, especially page_remove_rmap() (called from try_to_unmap_one()) clears PG_mlocked, so page_action() can't catch mlocked pages after that. However, memory_failure() can't handle memory errors on dirty mlocked pages correctly. try_to_unmap_one will move the dirty bit from pte to the physical page, the second check lose it since it check the stored page flag. This patch fix it by restore PG_dirty flag to stored page flag if the page is dirty.

2013-09-11mm/page-writeback.c: add strictlimit featureMaxim Patlasov
The feature prevents mistrusted filesystems (ie: FUSE mounts created by unprivileged users) to grow a large number of dirty pages before throttling. For such filesystems balance_dirty_pages always check bdi counters against bdi limits. I.e. even if global "nr_dirty" is under "freerun", it's not allowed to skip bdi checks. The only use case for now is fuse: it sets bdi max_ratio to 1% by default and system administrators are supposed to expect that this limit won't be exceeded. The feature is on if a BDI is marked by BDI_CAP_STRICTLIMIT flag. A filesystem may set the flag when it initializes its BDI. The problematic scenario comes from the fact that nobody pays attention to the NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP counter (i.e. number of pages under fuse writeback). The implementation of fuse writeback releases original page (by calling end_page_writeback) almost immediately. A fuse request queued for real processing bears a copy of original page. Hence, if userspace fuse daemon doesn't finalize write requests in timely manner, an aggressive mmap writer can pollute virtually all memory by those temporary fuse page copies. They are carefully accounted in NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP, but nobody cares. To make further explanations shorter, let me use "NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP problem" as a shortcut for "a possibility of uncontrolled grow of amount of RAM consumed by temporary pages allocated by kernel fuse to process writeback". The problem was very easy to reproduce. There is a trivial example filesystem implementation in fuse userspace distribution: fusexmp_fh.c. I added "sleep(1);" to the write methods, then recompiled and mounted it. Then created a huge file on the mount point and run a simple program which mmap-ed the file to a memory region, then wrote a data to the region. An hour later I observed almost all RAM consumed by fuse writeback. Since then some unrelated changes in kernel fuse made it more difficult to reproduce, but it is still possible now. Putting this theoretical happens-in-the-lab thing aside, there is another thing that really hurts real world (FUSE) users. This is write-through page cache policy FUSE currently uses. I.e. handling write(2), kernel fuse populates page cache and flushes user data to the server synchronously. This is excessively suboptimal. Pavel Emelyanov's patches ("writeback cache policy") solve the problem, but they also make resolving NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP problem absolutely necessary. Otherwise, simply copying a huge file to a fuse mount would result in memory starvation. Miklos, the maintainer of FUSE, believes strictlimit feature the way to go. And eventually putting FUSE topics aside, there is one more use-case for strictlimit feature. Using a slow USB stick (mass storage) in a machine with huge amount of RAM installed is a well-known pain. Let's make simple computations. Assuming 64GB of RAM installed, existing implementation of balance_dirty_pages will start throttling only after 9.6GB of RAM becomes dirty (freerun == 15% of total RAM). So, the command "cp 9GB_file /media/my-usb-storage/" may return in a few seconds, but subsequent "umount /media/my-usb-storage/" will take more than two hours if effective throughput of the storage is, to say, 1MB/sec. After inclusion of strictlimit feature, it will be trivial to add a knob (e.g. /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/x:y/strictlimit) to enable it on demand. Manually or via udev rule. May be I'm wrong, but it seems to be quite a natural desire to limit the amount of dirty memory for some devices we are not fully trust (in the sense of sustainable throughput).
