Commit 3e32cb2e0a12 ("mm: memcontrol: lockless page counters")
accidentally switched the soft limit default from infinity to zero,
which turns all memcgs with even a single page into soft limit excessors
and engages soft limit reclaim on all of them during global memory
pressure. This makes global reclaim generally more aggressive, but also
inverts the meaning of existing soft limit configurations where unset
soft limits are usually more generous than set ones.

Fix clashing values for O_PATH and FMODE_NONOTIFY on sparc. The
clashing O_PATH value was added in commit 5229645bdc35 ("vfs: add
nonconflicting values for O_PATH") but this can't be changed as it is
user-visible.
FMODE_NONOTIFY is only used internally in the kernel, but it is in the
same numbering space as the other O_* flags, as indicated by the comment
at the top of include/uapi/asm-generic/fcntl.h (and its use in
fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify_user.c). So renumber it to avoid the clash.
All of this has happened before (commit 12ed2e36c98a: "fanotify:
FMODE_NONOTIFY and __O_SYNC in sparc conflict"), and all of this will
happen again -- so update the uniqueness check in fcntl_init() to
include __FMODE_NONOTIFY.

link file
In ocfs2_link(), the parent directory inode passed to function
ocfs2_lookup_ino_from_name() is wrong. Parameter dir is the parent of
new_dentry not old_dentry. We should get old_dir from old_dentry and
lookup old_dentry in old_dir in case another node remove the old dentry.
With this change, hard linking works again, when paths are relative with
at least one subdirectory. This is how the problem was reproducable:
# mkdir a
# mkdir b
# touch a/test
# ln a/test b/test
ln: failed to create hard link `b/test' => `a/test': No such file or directory
However when creating links in the same dir, it worked well.
Now the link gets created.

Tejun, while reviewing the code, spotted the following race condition
between the dirtying and truncation of a page:
__set_page_dirty_nobuffers() __delete_from_page_cache()
if (TestSetPageDirty(page))
page->mapping = NULL
if (PageDirty())
dec_zone_page_state(page, NR_FILE_DIRTY);
dec_bdi_stat(mapping->backing_dev_info, BDI_RECLAIMABLE);
if (page->mapping)
account_page_dirtied(page)
__inc_zone_page_state(page, NR_FILE_DIRTY);
__inc_bdi_stat(mapping->backing_dev_info, BDI_RECLAIMABLE);
which results in an imbalance of NR_FILE_DIRTY and BDI_RECLAIMABLE.
Dirtiers usually lock out truncation, either by holding the page lock
directly, or in case of zap_pte_range(), by pinning the mapcount with
the page table lock held. The notable exception to this rule, though,
is do_wp_page(), for which this race exists. However, do_wp_page()
already waits for a locked page to unlock before setting the dirty bit,
in order to prevent a race where clear_page_dirty() misses the page bit
in the presence of dirty ptes. Upgrade that wait to a fully locked
set_page_dirty() to also cover the situation explained above.
Afterwards, the code in set_page_dirty() dealing with a truncation race
is no longer needed. Remove it.

Constantly forking task causes unlimited grow of anon_vma chain. Each
next child allocates new level of anon_vmas and links vma to all
previous levels because pages might be inherited from any level.
This patch adds heuristic which decides to reuse existing anon_vma
instead of forking new one. It adds counter anon_vma->degree which
counts linked vmas and directly descending anon_vmas and reuses anon_vma
if counter is lower than two. As a result each anon_vma has either vma
or at least two descending anon_vmas. In such trees half of nodes are
leafs with alive vmas, thus count of anon_vmas is no more than two times
bigger than count of vmas.
This heuristic reuses anon_vmas as few as possible because each reuse
adds false aliasing among vmas and rmap walker ought to scan more ptes
when it searches where page is might be mapped.

wait_consider_task() checks EXIT_ZOMBIE after EXIT_DEAD/EXIT_TRACE and
both checks can fail if we race with EXIT_ZOMBIE -> EXIT_DEAD/EXIT_TRACE
change in between, gcc needs to reload p->exit_state after
security_task_wait(). In this case ->notask_error will be wrongly

Jay Foad reports that the address sanitizer test (asan) sometimes gets
confused by a stack pointer that ends up being outside the stack vma
that is reported by /proc/maps.
This happens due to an interaction between RLIMIT_STACK and the guard
page: when we do the guard page check, we ignore the potential error
from the stack expansion, which effectively results in a missing guard
page, since the expected stack expansion won't have been done.
And since /proc/maps explicitly ignores the guard page (commit
d7824370e263: "mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard
page"), the stack pointer ends up being outside the reported stack area.
This is the minimal patch: it just propagates the error. It also
effectively makes the guard page part of the stack limit, which in turn
measn that the actual real stack is one page less than the stack limit.
Let's see if anybody notices. We could teach acct_stack_growth() to
allow an extra page for a grow-up/grow-down stack in the rlimit test,
but I don't want to add more complexity if it isn't needed.

This patch fixes a potential memory leak which can occur once an
originator times out. On timeout the according global translation table
entry might not get purged correctly. Furthermore, the non purged TT
entry will cause its orig-node to leak, too. Which additionally can lead
to the new multicast optimization feature not kicking in because of a
therefore bogus counter.
In detail: The batadv_tt_global_entry->orig_list holds the reference to
the orig-node. Usually this reference is released after
BATADV_PURGE_TIMEOUT through: _batadv_purge_orig()->
batadv_purge_orig_node()->batadv_update_route()->_batadv_update_route()->
batadv_tt_global_del_orig() which purges this global tt entry and
releases the reference to the orig-node.
However, if between two batadv_purge_orig_node() calls the orig-node
timeout grew to 2*BATADV_PURGE_TIMEOUT then this call path isn't
reached. Instead the according orig-node is removed from the
originator hash in _batadv_purge_orig(), the batadv_update_route()
part is skipped and won't be reached anymore.
Fixing the issue by moving batadv_tt_global_del_orig() out of the rcu
callback.

When purging an orig_node we should only decrease counter tracking the
number of nodes without multicast optimizations support if it was
increased through this orig_node before.
A not yet quite initialized orig_node (meaning it did not have its turn
in the mcast-tvlv handler so far) which gets purged would not adhere to
this and will lead to a counter imbalance.
Fixing this by adding a check whether the orig_node is mcast-initalized
before decreasing the counter in the mcast-orig_node-purging routine.

A miscounting of nodes having multicast optimizations enabled can lead
to multicast packet loss in the following scenario:
If the first OGM a node receives from another one has no multicast
optimizations support (no multicast tvlv) then we are missing to
increase the counter. This potentially leads to the wrong assumption
that we could safely use multicast optimizations.
Fixings this by increasing the counter if the initial OGM has the
multicast TVLV unset, too.

Currently it can happen that the reception of an OGM from a new
originator is not being accepted. More precisely it can happen that
an originator struct gets allocated and initialized
(batadv_orig_node_new()), even the TQ gets calculated and set correctly
(batadv_iv_ogm_calc_tq()) but still the periodic orig_node purging
thread will decide to delete it if it has a chance to jump between
these two function calls.
This is because batadv_orig_node_new() initializes the last_seen value
to zero and its caller (batadv_iv_ogm_orig_get()) makes it visible to
other threads by adding it to the hash table already.
batadv_iv_ogm_calc_tq() will set the last_seen variable to the correct,
current time a few lines later but if the purging thread jumps in between
that it will think that the orig_node timed out and will wrongly
schedule it for deletion already.
If the purging interval is the same as the originator interval (which is
the default: 1 second), then this game can continue for several rounds
until the random OGM jitter added enough difference between these
two (in tests, two to about four rounds seemed common).
Fixing this by initializing the last_seen variable of an orig_node
to the current time before adding it to the hash table.

The CPSW IP implements pulse-signaled interrupts. Due to
that we must write a correct, pre-defined value to the
CPDMA_MACEOIVECTOR register so the controller generates
a pulse on the correct IRQ line to signal the End Of
Interrupt.
The way the driver is written today, all four IRQ lines
are requested using the same IRQ handler and, because of
that, we could fall into situations where a TX IRQ fires
but we tell the controller that we ended an RX IRQ (or
vice-versa). This situation triggers an IRQ storm on the
reserved IRQ 127 of INTC which will in turn call ack_bad_irq()
which will, then, print a ton of:
unexpected IRQ trap at vector 00
In order to fix the problem, we are moving all calls to
cpdma_ctlr_eoi() inside the IRQ handler and making sure
we *always* write the correct value to the CPDMA_MACEOIVECTOR
register. Note that the algorithm assumes that IRQ numbers and
value-to-be-written-to-EOI are proportional, meaning that a
write of value 0 would trigger an EOI pulse for the RX_THRESHOLD
Interrupt and that's the IRQ number sitting in the 0-th index
of our irqs_table array.
This, however, is safe at least for current implementations of
CPSW so we will refrain from making the check smarter (and, as
a side-effect, slower) until we actually have a platform where
IRQ lines are swapped.
This patch has been tested for several days with AM335x- and
AM437x-based platforms. AM57x was left out because there are
still pending patches to enable ethernet in mainline for that
platform. A read of the TRM confirms the statement on previous
paragraph.

Commit a074335a370e ("x86, um: Mark system call tables readonly") was
supposed to mark the sys_call_table in UML as RO by adding the const,
but it doesn't have the desired effect as it's nevertheless being placed
into the data section since __cacheline_aligned enforces sys_call_table
being placed into .data..cacheline_aligned instead. We need to use
the ____cacheline_aligned version instead to fix this issue.

futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() does not work on UML because
it triggers a copy_from_user() in kernel context.
On UML copy_from_user() can only be used if the kernel was called
by a real user space process such that UML can use ptrace()
to fetch the value.

When allocation of all RQs fail, we do not free previously allocated buffers,
before returning error. This causes memory leak.
This patch fixes this by calling vnic_rq_clean(), which frees all the rq
buffers.

Some buggy firmwares export an incorrect MAC address (00:a0:c6:00:00:00). This
makes for example checking devices for random MAC addresses tricky, and you
might end up with multiple network interfaces with the same address.
This patch tries to fix, or at least improve, the situation by setting the MAC
address of devices with this firmware bug to a random address. I tested the
patch with two devices that has this firmware bug (Huawei E398 and E392), and
network traffic worked fine after changing the address.

Until now, when VLAN acceleration was in use, the bytes of the VLAN header
were not included in port or flow byte counters. They were however
included when VLAN acceleration was not used. This commit corrects the
inconsistency, by always including the VLAN header in byte counters.

Thomas Jarosch reported IPsec TCP stalls when a PMTU event occurs.
In fact the problem was completely unrelated to IPsec. The bug is
also reproducible if you just disable TSO/GSO.
The problem is that when the MSS goes down, existing queued packet
on the TX queue that have not been transmitted yet all look like
TSO packets and get treated as such.
This then triggers a bug where tcp_mss_split_point tells us to
generate a zero-sized packet on the TX queue. Once that happens
we're screwed because the zero-sized packet can never be removed
by ACKs.
Fixes: 1485348d242 ("tcp: Apply device TSO segment limit earlier")

Altera network device doesn't come up after
ifconfig eth0 down
ifconfig eth0 up
The reason behind is clearing priv->phydev during tse_shutdown().
The phydev is not restored back at tse_open().
Resubmiting as to follow Tobias Klauser suggestion.
phy_start/phy_stop are called on each ifup/ifdown and
phy_disconnect is called once during the module removal.

Previously, mlx4_mt_rereg_write filled the MPT's entity_size with the
old MTT's page shift, which could result in using an incorrect offset.
Fix the initialization to be after we calculate the new MTT offset.
In addition, assign mtt order to -1 after calling mlx4_mtt_cleanup. This
is necessary in order to mark the MTT as invalid and avoid freeing it later.
