      revert "drivers/video/s3c-fb.c: fix clock setting for Samsung SoC Framebuffer" · eb29a5cc
      Mark Brown authored 
      Fix divide by zero and broken output.  Commit 600ce1a0 ("fix clock
setting for Samsung SoC Framebuffer") introduced a mandatory refresh
parameter to the platform data for the S3C framebuffer but did not
introduce any validation code, causing existing platforms (none of which
have refresh set) to divide by zero whenever the framebuffer is
configured, generating warnings and unusable output.

Ben Dooks noted several problems with the patch:

 - The platform data supplies the pixclk directly and should already
   have taken care of the refresh rate.
 - The addition of a window ID parameter doesn't help since only the
   root framebuffer can control the pixclk.
 - pixclk is specified in picoseconds (rather than Hz) as the patch
   assumed.

and suggests reverting the commit so do that.  Without fixing this no
mainline user of the driver will produce output.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: don't revert the correct bit]

      nommu: fix shared mmap after truncate shrinkage problems · 7e660872
      David Howells authored 
      Fix a problem in NOMMU mmap with ramfs whereby a shared mmap can happen
over the end of a truncation.  The problem is that
ramfs_nommu_check_mappings() checks that the reduced file size against the
VMA tree, but not the vm_region tree.

The following sequence of events can cause the problem:

	fd = open("/tmp/x", O_RDWR|O_TRUNC|O_CREAT, 0600);
	ftruncate(fd, 32 * 1024);
	a = mmap(NULL, 32 * 1024, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
	b = mmap(NULL, 16 * 1024, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
	munmap(a, 32 * 1024);
	ftruncate(fd, 16 * 1024);
	c = mmap(NULL, 32 * 1024, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);

Mapping 'a' creates a vm_region covering 32KB of the file.  Mapping 'b'
sees that the vm_region from 'a' is covering the region it wants and so
shares it, pinning it in memory.

Mapping 'a' then goes away and the file is truncated to the end of VMA
'b'.  However, the region allocated by 'a' is still in effect, and has
_not_ been reduced.

Mapping 'c' is then created, and because there's a vm_region covering the
desired region, get_unmapped_area() is _not_ called to repeat the check,
and the mapping is granted, even though the pages from the latter half of
the mapping have been discarded.

However:

	d = mmap(NULL, 16 * 1024, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);

Mapping 'd' should work, and should end up sharing the region allocated by
'a'.

To deal with this, we shrink the vm_region struct during the truncation,
lest do_mmap_pgoff() take it as licence to share the full region
automatically without calling the get_unmapped_area() file op again.

      nommu: fix race between ramfs truncation and shared mmap · 81759b5b
      David Howells authored 
      Fix the race between the truncation of a ramfs file and an attempt to make
a shared mmap of region of that file.

The problem is that do_mmap_pgoff() calls f_op->get_unmapped_area() to
verify that the file region is made of contiguous pages and to find its
base address - but there isn't any locking to guarantee this region until
vma_prio_tree_insert() is called by add_vma_to_mm().

Note that moving the functionality into f_op->mmap() doesn't help as that
is also called before vma_prio_tree_insert().

Instead make ramfs_nommu_check_mappings() grab nommu_region_sem whilst it
does its checks.  This means that this function will wait whilst mmaps
take place.

      nommu: remove a superfluous check of vm_region::vm_usage · 779c1023
      David Howells authored 
      In split_vma(), there's no need to check if the VMA being split has a
region that's in use by more than one VMA because:

 (1) The preceding test prohibits splitting of non-anonymous VMAs and regions
     (eg: file or chardev backed VMAs).

 (2) Anonymous regions can't be mapped multiple times because there's no handle
     by which to refer to the already existing region.

 (3) If a VMA has previously been split, then the region backing it has also
     been split into two regions, each of usage 1.

      nommu: fix SYSV SHM for NOMMU · ed5e5894
      David Howells authored 
      Commit c4caa778 ("file
->get_unmapped_area() shouldn't duplicate work of get_unmapped_area()")
broke SYSV SHM for NOMMU by taking away the pointer to
shm_get_unmapped_area() from shm_file_operations.

Put it back conditionally on CONFIG_MMU=n.

file->f_ops->get_unmapped_area() is used to find out the base address for a
mapping of a mappable chardev device or mappable memory-based file (such as a
ramfs file).  It needs to be called prior to file->f_ops->mmap() being called.

      sysdev: fix prototype for memory_sysdev_class show/store functions · 8ff410da
      Wu Fengguang authored 
      The function prototype mismatches in call stack:

                [<ffffffff81494268>] print_block_size+0x58/0x60
                [<ffffffff81487e3f>] sysdev_class_show+0x1f/0x30

                [<ffffffff81176328>] vfs_read+0xc8/0x180

Due to prototype mismatch, print_block_size() will sprintf() into
*attribute instead of *buf, hence user space will read the initial
zeros from *buf:
	$ hexdump /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes
	0000000 0000 0000 0000 0000
	0000008

After patch:
	cat /sys/devices/system/memory/block_size_bytes
	0x8000000

This complements commits c29af9636 and 4a0b2b4d.

      memcg: ensure list is empty at rmdir · fce66477
      Daisuke Nishimura authored 
      Current mem_cgroup_force_empty() only ensures mem->res.usage == 0 on
success.  But this doesn't guarantee memcg's LRU is really empty, because
there are some cases in which !PageCgrupUsed pages exist on memcg's LRU.

For example:
- Pages can be uncharged by its owner process while they are on LRU.
- race between mem_cgroup_add_lru_list() and __mem_cgroup_uncharge_common().

So there can be a case in which the usage is zero but some of the LRUs are not empty.

OTOH, mem_cgroup_del_lru_list(), which can be called asynchronously with
rmdir, accesses the mem_cgroup, so this access can cause a problem if it
races with rmdir because the mem_cgroup might have been freed by rmdir.

Actually, I saw a bug which seems to be caused by this race.

	[1530745.950651] Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!

The problem here is pages on LRU may contain pointer to stale memcg.  To
make res->usage to be 0, all pages on memcg must be uncharged or moved to
another(parent) memcg.  Moved page_cgroup have already removed from
original LRU, but uncharged page_cgroup contains pointer to memcg withou
PCG_USED bit.  (This asynchronous LRU work is for improving performance.)
If PCG_USED bit is not set, page_cgroup will never be added to memcg's
LRU.  So, about pages not on LRU, they never access stale pointer.  Then,
what we have to take care of is page_cgroup _on_ LRU list.  This patch
fixes this problem by making mem_cgroup_force_empty() visit all LRUs
before exiting its loop and guarantee there are no pages on its LRU.
