      SELinux: Fix memory leak upon loading policy · 8ed81460
      Tetsuo Handa authored
      Hello.
      
      I got below leak with linux-3.10.0-54.0.1.el7.x86_64 .
      
      [  681.903890] kmemleak: 5538 new suspected memory leaks (see /sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak)
      
      Below is a patch, but I don't know whether we need special handing for undoing
      ebitmap_set_bit() call.

      Subject: [PATCH] SELinux: Fix memory leak upon loading policy
      
      Commit 2463c26d "SELinux: put name based create rules in a hashtable" did not
      check return value from hashtab_insert() in filename_trans_read(). It leaks
      memory if hashtab_insert() returns error.

       "These commits, except for one, are regression fixes and the remaining
        one fixes a divide error leading to a kernel panic.  The majority of
        the regressions fixed here were introduced during the 3.12 cycle, one
        of them is from this cycle and one is older.
      
        Specifics:
      
         - VGA switcheroo was broken for some users as a result of the
           ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) changes in 3.12, because some
           previously ignored hotplug events started to be handled.  The fix
           causes them to be ignored again.
      
         - There are two more issues related to cpufreq's suspend/resume
           handling changes from the 3.12 cycle addressed by Viresh Kumar's
           fixes.
      
         - intel_pstate triggers a divide error in a timer function if the
           P-state information it needs is missing during initialization.
           This leads to kernel panics on nested KVM clients and is fixed by
           failing the initialization cleanly in those cases.
      
         - PCI initalization code changes during the 3.9 cycle uncovered BIOS
           issues related to ACPI wakeup notifications (some BIOSes send them
           for devices that aren't supposed to support ACPI wakeup).  Work
           around them by installing an ACPI wakeup notify handler for all PCI
           devices with ACPI support.
      
         - The Calxeda cpuilde driver's probe function is tagged as __init,
           which is incorrect and causes a section mismatch to occur during
           build.  Fix from Andre Przywara removes the __init tag from there.
      
         - During the 3.12 cycle ACPIPHP started to print warnings about
           missing _ADR for devices that legitimately don't have it.  Fix from
           Toshi Kani makes it only print the warnings where they make sense"

      ima: remove unneeded size_limit argument from ima_eventdigest_init_common() · dcf4e392
      Roberto Sassu authored
      This patch removes the 'size_limit' argument from
      ima_eventdigest_init_common(). Since the 'd' field will never include
      the hash algorithm as prefix and the 'd-ng' will always have it, we can
      use the hash algorithm to differentiate the two cases in the modified
      function (it is equal to HASH_ALGO__LAST in the first case, the opposite
      in the second).

      epoll: do not take the nested ep->mtx on EPOLL_CTL_DEL · 4ff36ee9
      Jason Baron authored
      The EPOLL_CTL_DEL path of epoll contains a classic, ab-ba deadlock.
      That is, epoll_ctl(a, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, b, x), will deadlock with
      epoll_ctl(b, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, a, x).  The deadlock was introduced with
      commmit 67347fe4 ("epoll: do not take global 'epmutex' for simple
      topologies").
      
      The acquistion of the ep->mtx for the destination 'ep' was added such
      that a concurrent EPOLL_CTL_ADD operation would see the correct state of
      the ep (Specifically, the check for '!list_empty(&f.file->f_ep_links')
      
      However, by simply not acquiring the lock, we do not serialize behind
      the ep->mtx from the add path, and thus may perform a full path check
      when if we had waited a little longer it may not have been necessary.
      However, this is a transient state, and performing the full loop
      checking in this case is not harmful.
      
      The important point is that we wouldn't miss doing the full loop
      checking when required, since EPOLL_CTL_ADD always locks any 'ep's that
      its operating upon.  The reason we don't need to do lock ordering in the
      add path, is that we are already are holding the global 'epmutex'
      whenever we do the double lock.  Further, the original posting of this
      patch, which was tested for the intended performance gains, did not
      perform this additional locking.

         CR2: 0000000000000058
      
      The reasoning of this problem is shown below:
       - when we have a memory error on a thp tail page, the memory error
         handler grabs a refcount of the head page to keep the thp under us.
       - Before unmapping the error page from processes, we split the thp,
         where page refcounts of both of head/tail pages don't change.
       - Then we call try_to_unmap() over the error page (which was a tail
         page before). We didn't pin the error page to handle the memory error,
         this error page is freed and removed from LRU list.
       - We never have the error page on LRU list, so the first page state
         check returns "unknown page," then we move to the second check
         with the saved page flag.
       - The saved page flag have PG_tail set, so the second page state check
         returns "hugepage."
       - We call me_huge_page() for freed error page, then we hit the above panic.
      
      The root cause is that we didn't move refcount from the head page to the
      tail page after split thp.  So this patch suggests to do this.
      
      This panic was introduced by commit 524fca1e ("HWPOISON: fix
      misjudgement of page_action() for errors on mlocked pages").  Note that we
      did have the same refcount problem before this commit, but it was just
      ignored because we had only first page state check which returned "unknown
      page." The commit changed the refcount problem from "doesn't work" to
      "kernel panic."

      mm: remove bogus warning in copy_huge_pmd() · d0319bd5
      Mel Gorman authored
      Sasha Levin reported the following warning being triggered
      
        WARNING: CPU: 28 PID: 35287 at mm/huge_memory.c:887 copy_huge_pmd+0x145/ 0x3a0()

      This warning was introduced by "mm: numa: Avoid unnecessary disruption
      of NUMA hinting during migration" for paranoia reasons but the warning
      is bogus.  I was thinking of parallel races between NUMA hinting faults
      and forks but this warning would also be triggered by a parallel reclaim
      splitting a THP during a fork.  Remote the bogus warning.
