      ipc,msg: drop dst nil validation in copy_msg · 5f2a2d5d
      Davidlohr Bueso authored
      d0edd852 ("ipc: convert invalid scenarios to use WARN_ON") relaxed the
      nil dst parameter check, originally being a full BUG_ON.  However, this
      check seems quite unnecessary when the only purpose is for
      ceckpoint/restore (MSG_COPY flag):
      
      o The copy variable is set initially to nil, apparently as a way of
        ensuring that prepare_copy is previously called.  Which is in fact done,
        unconditionally at the beginning of do_msgrcv.
      
      o There is no concurrency with 'copy' (stack allocated in do_msgrcv).
      
      Furthermore, any errors in 'copy' (and thus prepare_copy/copy_msg) should
      always handled by IS_ERR() family.  Therefore remove this check altogether
      as it can never occur with the current users.

      panic: release stale console lock to always get the logbuf printed out · 08d78658
      Vitaly Kuznetsov authored
      In some cases we may end up killing the CPU holding the console lock
      while still having valuable data in logbuf. E.g. I'm observing the
      following:
      
      - A crash is happening on one CPU and console_unlock() is being called on
        some other.
      
      - console_unlock() tries to print out the buffer before releasing the lock
        and on slow console it takes time.
      
      - in the meanwhile crashing CPU does lots of printk()-s with valuable data
        (which go to the logbuf) and sends IPIs to all other CPUs.
      
      - console_unlock() finishes printing previous chunk and enables interrupts
        before trying to print out the rest, the CPU catches the IPI and never
        releases console lock.
      
      This is not the only possible case: in VT/fb subsystems we have many other
      console_lock()/console_unlock() users.  Non-masked interrupts (or
      receiving NMI in case of extreme slowness) will have the same result.
      Getting the whole console buffer printed out on crash should be top
      priority.

      dma-mapping: tidy up dma_parms default handling · 002edb6f
      Robin Murphy authored
      Many DMA controllers and other devices set max_segment_size to
      indicate their scatter-gather capability, but have no interest in
      segment_boundary_mask. However, the existence of a dma_parms structure
      precludes the use of any default value, leaving them as zeros (assuming
      a properly kzalloc'ed structure). If a well-behaved IOMMU (or SWIOTLB)
      then tries to respect this by ensuring a mapped segment does not cross
      a zero-byte boundary, hilarity ensues.
      
      Since zero is a nonsensical value for either parameter, treat it as an
      indicator for "default", as might be expected. In the process, clean up
      a bit by replacing the bare constants with slightly more meaningful
      macros and removing the superfluous "else" statements.

      [   79.182752] kexec_core: sanity_check_segment_list, Hello, world

      fs, seqfile: always allow oom killer · 0f930902
      Greg Thelen authored
      Since 5cec38ac ("fs, seq_file: fallback to vmalloc instead of oom kill
      processes") seq_buf_alloc() avoids calling the oom killer for PAGE_SIZE or
      smaller allocations; but larger allocations can use the oom killer via
      vmalloc().  Thus reads of small files can return ENOMEM, but larger files
      use the oom killer to avoid ENOMEM.
      
      The effect of this bug is that reads from /proc and other virtual
      filesystems can return ENOMEM instead of the preferred behavior - oom
      killing something (possibly the calling process).  I don't know of anyone
      except Google who has noticed the issue.
      
      I suspect the fix is more needed in smaller systems where there isn't any
      reclaimable memory.  But these seem like the kinds of systems which
      probably don't use the oom killer for production situations.
      
      Memory overcommit requires use of the oom killer to select a victim
      regardless of file size.
      
      Enable oom killer for small seq_buf_alloc() allocations.
      
      Fixes: 5cec38ac ("fs, seq_file: fallback to vmalloc instead of oom kill processes")

      coredump: ensure all coredumping tasks have SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP · 5fa534c9
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      task_will_free_mem() is wrong in many ways, and in particular the
      SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP check is not reliable: a task can participate in the
      coredumping without SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP bit set.
      
      change zap_threads() paths to always set SIGNAL_GROUP_COREDUMP even if
      other CLONE_VM processes can't react to SIGKILL.  Fortunately, at least
      oom-kill case if fine; it kills all tasks sharing the same mm, so it
      should also kill the process which actually dumps the core.
      
      The change in prepare_signal() is not strictly necessary, it just ensures
      that the patch does not bring another subtle behavioural change.  But it
      reminds us that this SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT/COREDUMP case needs more changes.

      jffs2_garbage_collect_thread() can race with SIGCONT and sleep in
      TASK_STOPPED state after it was already sent. Add the new helper,
      kernel_signal_stop(), which does this correctly.

      signal: turn dequeue_signal_lock() into kernel_dequeue_signal() · be0e6f29
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      1. Rename dequeue_signal_lock() to kernel_dequeue_signal(). This
         matches another "for kthreads only" kernel_sigaction() helper.
      
      2. Remove the "tsk" and "mask" arguments, they are always current
         and current->blocked. And it is simply wrong if tsk != current.
      
      3. We could also remove the 3rd "siginfo_t *info" arg but it looks
         potentially useful. However we can simplify the callers if we
         change kernel_dequeue_signal() to accept info => NULL.
      
      4. Remove _irqsave, it is never called from atomic context.

      signals: kill block_all_signals() and unblock_all_signals() · 2e01fabe
      Oleg Nesterov authored
      It is hardly possible to enumerate all problems with block_all_signals()
      and unblock_all_signals().  Just for example,
      
      1. block_all_signals(SIGSTOP/etc) simply can't help if the caller is
         multithreaded. Another thread can dequeue the signal and force the
         group stop.
      
      2. Even is the caller is single-threaded, it will "stop" anyway. It
         will not sleep, but it will spin in kernel space until SIGCONT or
         SIGKILL.
      
      And a lot more. In short, this interface doesn't work at all, at least
      the last 10+ years.

        Yeah the only times I played around with the DRM_LOCK stuff was when
        old drivers accidentally deadlocked - my impression is that the entire
        DRM_LOCK thing was never really tested properly ;-) Hence I'm all for
        purging where this leaks out of the drm subsystem.

      nilfs2: add tracepoints for analyzing sufile manipulation · 83eec5e6
      Hitoshi Mitake authored
      This patch adds tracepoints which would be useful for analyzing segment
      usage from a perspective of high level sufile manipulation (check, alloc,
      free).  sufile is an important in-place updated metadata file, so
      analyzing the behavior would be useful for performance turning.
      
      example of usage (a case of allocation):
      
      $ sudo bin/tpoint nilfs2:nilfs2_segment_usage_allocated
      Tracing nilfs2:nilfs2_segment_usage_allocated. Ctrl-C to end.
