Fix for BUG_ON(anon_vma->degree) splashes in unlink_anon_vmas() ("kernel BUG at mm/rmap.c:399!") caused by commit 7a3ef208 ("mm: prevent endless growth of anon_vma hierarchy") Anon_vma_clone() is usually called for a copy of source vma in destination argument. If source vma has anon_vma it should be already in dst->anon_vma. NULL in dst->anon_vma is used as a sign that it's called from anon_vma_fork(). In this case anon_vma_clone() finds anon_vma for reusing. Vma_adjust() calls it differently and this breaks anon_vma reusing logic: anon_vma_clone() links vma to old anon_vma and updates degree counters but vma_adjust() overrides vma->anon_vma right after that. As a result final unlink_anon_vmas() decrements degree for wrong anon_vma. This patch assigns ->anon_vma before calling anon_vma_clone().

Commit fee7e49d ("mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for guard page") made sure that we return the error properly for stack growth conditions. It also theorized that counting the guard page towards the stack limit might break something, but also said "Let's see if anybody notices". Somebody did notice. Apparently android-x86 sets the stack limit very close to the limit indeed, and including the guard page in the rlimit check causes the android 'zygote' process problems. So this adds the (fairly trivial) code to make the stack rlimit check be against the actual real stack size, rather than the size of the vma that includes the guard page.

This is a static checker fix. We write some binary settings to the sysfs file. One of the settings is the "->startup_profile". There isn't any checking to make sure it fits into the pyra->profile_settings[] array in the profile_activated() function. I added a check to pyra_sysfs_write_settings() in both places because I wasn't positive that the other callers were correct.

Vlastimil Babka authored
Charles Shirron and Paul Cassella from Cray Inc have reported kswapd stuck in a busy loop with nothing left to balance, but kswapd_try_to_sleep() failing to sleep. Their analysis found the cause to be a combination of several factors: 1. A process is waiting in throttle_direct_reclaim() on pgdat->pfmemalloc_wait 2. The process has been killed (by OOM in this case), but has not yet been scheduled to remove itself from the waitqueue and die. 3. kswapd checks for throttled processes in prepare_kswapd_sleep(): if (waitqueue_active(&pgdat->pfmemalloc_wait)) { wake_up(&pgdat->pfmemalloc_wait); return false; // kswapd will not go to sleep } However, for a process that was already killed, wake_up() does not remove the process from the waitqueue, since try_to_wake_up() checks its state first and returns false when the process is no longer waiting. 4. kswapd is running on the same CPU as the only CPU that the process is allowed to run on (through cpus_allowed, or possibly single-cpu system). 5. CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y kernel is used. If there's nothing to balance, kswapd encounters no voluntary preemption points and repeatedly fails prepare_kswapd_sleep(), blocking the process from running and removing itself from the waitqueue, which would let kswapd sleep. So, the source of the problem is that we prevent kswapd from going to sleep until there are processes waiting on the pfmemalloc_wait queue, and a process waiting on a queue is guaranteed to be removed from the queue only when it gets scheduled. This was done to make sure that no process is left sleeping on pfmemalloc_wait when kswapd itself goes to sleep. However, it isn't necessary to postpone kswapd sleep until the pfmemalloc_wait queue actually empties. To prevent processes from being left sleeping, it's actually enough to guarantee that all processes waiting on pfmemalloc_wait queue have been woken up by the time we put kswapd to sleep. This patch therefore fixes this issue by substituting 'wake_up' with 'wake_up_all' and removing 'return false' in the code snippet from prepare_kswapd_sleep() above. Note that if any process puts itself in the queue after this waitqueue_active() check, or after the wake up itself, it means that the process will also wake up kswapd - and since we are under prepare_to_wait(), the wake up won't be missed. Also we update the comment prepare_kswapd_sleep() to hopefully more clearly describe the races it is preventing.

We are supposed to take one css reference per each memory page and per each swap entry accounted to a memory cgroup. However, during task charges migration we take a reference to the destination cgroup twice per each swap entry: first in mem_cgroup_do_precharge()->try_charge() and then in mem_cgroup_move_swap_account(), permanently leaking the destination cgroup. The hunk taking the second reference seems to be a leftover from the pre-00501b53 ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite charge API") era. Remove it to fix the leak.

Commit 3e32cb2e ("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 5229645b ("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 12ed2e36: "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.

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.

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. Reported-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Kirill A.

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.

Note: this bug is very old but it was pure theoretical until commit b3ab0316 ("wait: completely ignore the EXIT_DEAD tasks").

The introduction of the uapi directories in v3.7-rc1 moved some of the generated headers from arch/*/include/generated to the uapi directory, keeping the #include directives intact. This creates a problem when bisecting, because the unversioned files are not cleaned automatically by git and the compiler might include stale headers as a result. Instead of cleaning them in the Makefiles, promote arch/*/include/generated/uapi in the search path. Under normal circumstances, there is no overlap between this uapi subdirectory and its parent, so the include choices remain the same. We keep arch/*/include/generated/uapi in the USERINCLUDE variable so that it is usable standalone. Note that we cannot completely swap the order of the uapi and kernel-only directories, since the headers in include/uapi/asm-generic are meant to be wrapped by their include/asm-generic counterparts when building kernel code.

Pull power management and ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki: "These are an ACPI device power management initialization fix (-stable material), two commits renaming stuff in the ACPI processor driver to make it more suitable for ARM64 processors and a new ACPI backlight blacklist entry. Specifics: - Fix ACPI power management intialization for device objects corresponding to devices that are not present at the init time (the _STA control method returns 0 for them) and therefore should not be regarded as power manageable (Rafael J Wysocki). - Rename a structure field and two functions used by the ACPI processor driver to make them less tied to architectures that use APICs (both x86 and ia64) and more suitable for ARM64 processors (Hanjun Guo). - Add a disable_native_backlight quirk for Dell XPS15 L521X designed in an unusual way preventing native backlight from working on that machine (Hans de Goede)" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.19-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: ACPI / video: Add disable_native_backlight quirk for Dell XPS15 L521X ACPI / processor: Rename acpi_(un)map_lsapic() to acpi_(un)map_cpu() ACPI / processor: Convert apic_id to phys_id to make it arch agnostic ACPI / PM: Fix PM initialization for devices that are not present

The early ioremap support introduced by patch bf4b558e ("arm64: add early_ioremap support") failed to add a call to early_ioremap_reset() at an appropriate time. Without this call, invocations of early_ioremap etc. that are done too late will go unnoticed and may cause corruption. This is exactly what happened when the first user of this feature was added in patch f84d0275 ("arm64: add EFI runtime services"). The early mapping of the EFI memory map is unmapped during an early initcall, at which time the early ioremap support is long gone. Fix by adding the missing call to early_ioremap_reset() to setup_arch(), and move the offending early_memunmap() to right after the point where the early mapping of the EFI memory map is last used.
