2012-03-05memcg: fix GPF when cgroup removal races with last exitHugh Dickins
When moving tasks from old memcg (with move_charge_at_immigrate on new memcg), followed by removal of old memcg, hit General Protection Fault in mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() (called from release_pages called from free_pages_and_swap_cache from tlb_flush_mmu from tlb_finish_mmu from exit_mmap from mmput from exit_mm from do_exit). Somewhat reproducible, takes a few hours: the old struct mem_cgroup has been freed and poisoned by SLAB_DEBUG, but mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() is still trying to update its stats, and take page off lru before freeing. A task, or a charge, or a page on lru: each secures a memcg against removal. In this case, the last task has been moved out of the old memcg, and it is exiting: anonymous pages are uncharged one by one from the memcg, as they are zapped from its pagetables, so the charge gets down to 0; but the pages themselves are queued in an mmu_gather for freeing. Most of those pages will be on lru (and force_empty is careful to lru_add_drain_all, to add pages from pagevec to lru first), but not necessarily all: perhaps some have been isolated for page reclaim, perhaps some isolated for other reasons. So, force_empty may find no task, no charge and no page on lru, and let the removal proceed. There would still be no problem if these pages were immediately freed; but typically (and the put_page_testzero protocol demands it) they have to be added back to lru before they are found freeable, then removed from lru and freed. We don't see the issue when adding, because the mem_cgroup_iter() loops keep their own reference to the memcg being scanned; but when it comes to mem_cgroup_lru_del_list(). I believe this was not an issue in v3.2: there, PageCgroupAcctLRU and PageCgroupUsed flags were used (like a trick with mirrors) to deflect view of pc->mem_cgroup to the stable root_mem_cgroup when neither set. 38c5d72f3ebe ("memcg: simplify LRU handling by new rule") mercifully removed those convolutions, but left this General Protection Fault. But it's surprisingly easy to restore the old behaviour: just check PageCgroupUsed in mem_cgroup_lru_add_list() (which decides on which lruvec to add), and reset pc to root_mem_cgroup if page is uncharged. A risky change? just going back to how it worked before; testing, and an audit of uses of pc->mem_cgroup, show no problem. And there's a nice bonus: with mem_cgroup_lru_add_list() itself making sure that an uncharged page goes to root lru, mem_cgroup_reset_owner() no longer has any purpose, and we can safely revert 4e5f01c2b9b9 ("memcg: clear pc->mem_cgroup if necessary"). Calling update_page_reclaim_stat() after add_page_to_lru_list() in swap.c is not strictly necessary: the lru_lock there, with RCU before memcg structures are freed, makes mem_cgroup_get_reclaim_stat_from_page safe without that; but it seems cleaner to rely on one dependency less.

2012-03-05vfork: make it killableOleg Nesterov
Make vfork() killable. Change do_fork(CLONE_VFORK) to do wait_for_completion_killable(). If it fails we do not return to the user-mode and never touch the memory shared with our child. However, in this case we should clear child->vfork_done before return, we use task_lock() in do_fork()->wait_for_vfork_done() and complete_vfork_done() to serialize with each other. Note: now that we use task_lock() we don't really need completion, we could turn task->vfork_done into "task_struct *wake_up_me" but this needs some complications. NOTE: this and the next patches do not affect in-kernel users of CLONE_VFORK, kernel threads run with all signals ignored including SIGKILL/SIGSTOP. However this is obviously the user-visible change. Not only a fatal signal can kill the vforking parent, a sub-thread can do execve or exit_group() and kill the thread sleeping in vfork().

2012-03-05kmsg_dump: don't run on non-error paths by defaultMatthew Garrett
Since commit 04c6862c055f ("kmsg_dump: add kmsg_dump() calls to the reboot, halt, poweroff and emergency_restart paths"), kmsg_dump() gets run on normal paths including poweroff and reboot. This is less than ideal given pstore implementations that can only represent single backtraces, since a reboot may overwrite a stored oops before it's been picked up by userspace. In addition, some pstore backends may have low performance and provide a significant delay in reboot as a result. This patch adds a printk.always_kmsg_dump kernel parameter (which can also be changed from userspace). Without it, the code will only be run on failure paths rather than on normal paths. The option can be enabled in environments where there's a desire to attempt to audit whether or not a reboot was cleanly requested or not.

2012-03-04vfs: move dentry_cmp from <linux/dcache.h> to fs/dcache.cLinus Torvalds
It's only used inside fs/dcache.c, and we're going to play games with it for the word-at-a-time patches. This time we really don't even want to export it, because it really is an internal function to fs/dcache.c, and has been since it was introduced. Having it in that extremely hot header file (it's included in pretty much everything, thanks to <linux/fs.h>) is a disaster for testing different versions, and is utterly pointless. We really should have some kind of header file diet thing, where we figure out which parts of header files are really better off private and only result in more expensive compiles.

But it wouldn't matter if it wasn't for the fact that the word-at-a-time dentry name patches want to conditionally replace the function, and uninlining it sets the stage for that.

2012-03-02Block: use a freezable workqueue for disk-event pollingAlan Stern
This patch (as1519) fixes a bug in the block layer's disk-events polling. The polling is done by a work routine queued on the system_nrt_wq workqueue. Since that workqueue isn't freezable, the polling continues even in the middle of a system sleep transition. Obviously, polling a suspended drive for media changes and such isn't a good thing to do; in the case of USB mass-storage devices it can lead to real problems requiring device resets and even re-enumeration. The patch fixes things by creating a new system-wide, non-reentrant, freezable workqueue and using it for disk-events polling.

There was an off-by-one error in the comments describing the highest_sack field in struct tcp_sock. The comments previously claimed that it was the "start sequence of the highest skb with SACKed bit". This commit fixes the comments to note that it is the "start sequence of the skb just *after* the highest skb with SACKed bit".

2012-02-27[PARISC] fix compile break caused by iomap: make IOPORT/PCI mapping ↵James Bottomley
functions conditional The problem in commit fea80311a939a746533a6d7e7c3183729d6a3faf Author: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Date: Sun Jul 24 11:39:14 2011 -0700 iomap: make IOPORT/PCI mapping functions conditional is that if your architecture supplies pci_iomap/pci_iounmap, it expects always to supply them. Adding empty body defitions in the !CONFIG_PCI case, which is what this patch does, breaks the parisc compile because the functions become doubly defined. It took us a while to spot this, because we don't actually build !CONFIG_PCI very often (only if someone is brave enough to test the snake/asp machines). Since the note in the commit log says this is to fix a CONFIG_GENERIC_IOMAP issue (which it does because CONFIG_GENERIC_IOMAP supplies pci_iounmap only if CONFIG_PCI is set), there should actually have been a condition upon this. This should make sure no other architecture's !CONFIG_PCI compile breaks in the same way as parisc. The fix had to be updated to take account of the GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP separation.

Sophisticaed applications like 'ip' that want to see this stuff will be changed to set the attribute, whereas things like GLIBC that don't care about VFs simply will not, and therefore won't be busted by the mere presence of VFs on a network device.

2012-02-26Fix autofs compile without CONFIG_COMPATLinus Torvalds
The autofs compat handling fix caused a compile failure when CONFIG_COMPAT isn't defined. Instead of adding random #ifdef'fery in autofs, let's just make the compat helpers earlier to use: without CONFIG_COMPAT, is_compat_task() just hardcodes to zero. We could probably do something similar for a number of other cases where we have #ifdef's in code, but this is the low-hanging fruit.

2012-02-24epoll: introduce POLLFREE to flush ->signalfd_wqh before kfree()Oleg Nesterov
This patch is intentionally incomplete to simplify the review. It ignores ep_unregister_pollwait() which plays with the same wqh. See the next change. epoll assumes that the EPOLL_CTL_ADD'ed file controls everything f_op->poll() needs. In particular it assumes that the wait queue can't go away until eventpoll_release(). This is not true in case of signalfd, the task which does EPOLL_CTL_ADD uses its ->sighand which is not connected to the file. This patch adds the special event, POLLFREE, currently only for epoll. It expects that init_poll_funcptr()'ed hook should do the necessary cleanup. Perhaps it should be defined as EPOLLFREE in eventpoll. __cleanup_sighand() is changed to do wake_up_poll(POLLFREE) if ->signalfd_wqh is not empty, we add the new signalfd_cleanup() helper. ep_poll_callback(POLLFREE) simply does list_del_init(task_list). This make this poll entry inconsistent, but we don't care. If you share epoll fd which contains our sigfd with another process you should blame yourself. signalfd is "really special". I simply do not know how we can define the "right" semantics if it used with epoll. The main problem is, epoll calls signalfd_poll() once to establish the connection with the wait queue, after that signalfd_poll(NULL) returns the different/inconsistent results depending on who does EPOLL_CTL_MOD/signalfd_read/etc. IOW: apart from sigmask, signalfd has nothing to do with the file, it works with the current thread. In short: this patch is the hack which tries to fix the symptoms. It also assumes that nobody can take tasklist_lock under epoll locks, this seems to be true. Note: - we do not have wake_up_all_poll() but wake_up_poll() is fine, poll/epoll doesn't use WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE. - signalfd_cleanup() uses POLLHUP along with POLLFREE, we need a couple of simple changes in eventpoll.c to make sure it can't be "lost".

2012-02-24netfilter: ctnetlink: fix soft lockup when netlink adds new entries (v2)Jozsef Kadlecsik
Marcell Zambo and Janos Farago noticed and reported that when new conntrack entries are added via netlink and the conntrack table gets full, soft lockup happens. This is because the nf_conntrack_lock is held while nf_conntrack_alloc is called, which is in turn wants to lock nf_conntrack_lock while evicting entries from the full table. The patch fixes the soft lockup with limiting the holding of the nf_conntrack_lock to the minimum, where it's absolutely required. It required to extend (and thus change) nf_conntrack_hash_insert so that it makes sure conntrack and ctnetlink do not add the same entry twice to the conntrack table.

Commit 1ac9bc69 ("sched/tracing: Add a new tracepoint for sleeptime") added a new sched:sched_stat_sleeptime tracepoint. It's broken: the first sample we get on a task might be bad because of a stale sleep_start value that wasn't reset at the last task switch because the tracepoint was not active. It also breaks the existing schedstat samples due to the side effects of: - se->statistics.sleep_start = 0; ... - se->statistics.block_start = 0; Nor do I see means to fix it without adding overhead to the scheduler fast path, which I'm not willing to for the sake of redundant instrumentation. Most importantly, sleep time information can already be constructed by tracing context switches and wakeups, and taking the timestamp difference between the schedule-out, the wakeup and the schedule-in.

2012-02-21sys_poll: fix incorrect type for 'timeout' parameterLinus Torvalds
The 'poll()' system call timeout parameter is supposed to be 'int', not 'long'. Now, the reason this matters is that right now 32-bit compat mode is broken on at least x86-64, because the 32-bit code just calls 'sys_poll()' directly on x86-64, and the 32-bit argument will have been zero-extended, turning a signed 'int' into a large unsigned 'long' value. We could just introduce a 'compat_sys_poll()' function for this, and that may eventually be what we have to do, but since the actual standard poll() semantics is *supposed* to be 'int', and since at least on x86-64 glibc sign-extends the argument before invocing the system call (so nobody can actually use a 64-bit timeout value in user space _anyway_, even in 64-bit binaries), the simpler solution would seem to be to just fix the definition of the system call to match what it should have been from the very start. If it turns out that somebody somehow circumvents the user-level libc 64-bit sign extension and actually uses a large unsigned 64-bit timeout despite that not being how poll() is supposed to work, we will need to do the compat_sys_poll() approach.

2012-02-21asm-generic: architecture independent readq/writeq for 32bit environmentHitoshi Mitake
This provides unified readq()/writeq() helper functions for 32-bit drivers. For some cases, readq/writeq without atomicity is harmful, and order of io access has to be specified explicitly. So in this patch, new two header files which contain non-atomic readq/writeq are added. - <asm-generic/io-64-nonatomic-lo-hi.h> provides non-atomic readq/ writeq with the order of lower address -> higher address - <asm-generic/io-64-nonatomic-hi-lo.h> provides non-atomic readq/ writeq with reversed order This allows us to remove some readq()s that were added drivers when the default non-atomic ones were removed in commit dbee8a0affd5 ("x86: remove 32-bit versions of readq()/writeq()") The drivers which need readq/writeq but can do with the non-atomic ones must add the line: #include <asm-generic/io-64-nonatomic-lo-hi.h> /* or hi-lo.h */ But this will be nop in 64-bit environments, and no other #ifdefs are required. So I believe that this patch can solve the problem of 1. driver-specific readq/writeq 2. atomicity and order of io access This patch is tested with building allyesconfig and allmodconfig as ARCH=x86 and ARCH=i386 on top of tip/master.

2012-02-21rtnetlink: Fix problem with buffer allocationGreg Rose
Implement a new netlink attribute type IFLA_EXT_MASK. The mask is a 32 bit value that can be used to indicate to the kernel that certain extended ifinfo values are requested by the user application. At this time the only mask value defined is RTEXT_FILTER_VF to indicate that the user wants the ifinfo dump to send information about the VFs belonging to the interface. This patch fixes a bug in which certain applications do not have large enough buffers to accommodate the extra information returned by the kernel with large numbers of SR-IOV virtual functions. Those applications will not send the new netlink attribute with the interface info dump request netlink messages so they will not get unexpectedly large request buffers returned by the kernel. Modifies the rtnl_calcit function to traverse the list of net devices and compute the minimum buffer size that can hold the info dumps of all matching devices based upon the filter passed in via the new netlink attribute filter mask. If no filter mask is sent then the buffer allocation defaults to NLMSG_GOODSIZE. With this change it is possible to add yet to be defined netlink attributes to the dump request which should make it fairly extensible in the future.
