The thin archives build currently puts all lib.a and built-in.o files together and links them with --whole-archive. This works because thin archives can recursively refer to thin archives. However some architectures include libgcc.a, which may not be a thin archive, or it may not be constructed with the "P" option, in which case its contents do not get linked correctly. So don't pull .a libs into the root built-in.o archive. These libs should already have symbol tables and indexes built, so they can be direct linker inputs. Move them out of the --whole-archive option, which restore the conditional linking behaviour of lib.a to thin archives builds.

The P option makes ar do full path name matching and can prevent ar from discarding files with duplicate names in some cases of creating thin archives from thin archives. The sh architecture in particular loses some object files from its kernel/cpu/sh*/ directories without this option. This could be a bug in binutils ar, but the P option should not cause any negative effects so it is safe to use to work around this with.

Close the --whole-archives option with --no-whole-archive. Some architectures end up including additional .o and files multiple times after this, and they get duplicate symbols when they are brought under the --whole-archives option. This matches more closely with the incremental final link. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>

Build targets using if_changed(_rule) must depend on FORCE so that they are evaluated every time. In order to include .*.cmd files correctly, build targets added to "targets" must not be prefixed with $(obj)/ because it is done by scripts/Makefile.lib .

This fixes a problem with reading files larger than 2GB from a UFS-2 file system: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=195721 The incorrect UFS s_maxsize limit became a problem as of commit c2a9737f ("vfs,mm: fix a dead loop in truncate_inode_pages_range()") which started using s_maxbytes to avoid a page index overflow in do_generic_file_read(). That caused files to be truncated on UFS-2 file systems because the default maximum file size is 2GB (MAX_NON_LFS) and UFS didn't update it. Here I simply increase the default to a common value used by other file systems.

acpi_dev_found checks that there is a matching ACPI node, but it may be disabled (_STA method returns 0) in which case the soc_button_array driver will not bind to it and axp20x-pek should handle the power-button. This commit switches from acpi_dev_found to acpi_dev_present to avoid not registering an input-dev for the powerbutton when there is a disabled PNP0C40 device. The ACPI-6.0 standard defines a standard gpio button device using the ACPI0011 HID replacing the custom PNP0C40 gpio device, many newer devices define both PNP0C40 and ACPI0011 devices enabling one or the other depending on whether the BIOS thinks it is going to boot Android or Windows. This commit adds a check for the ACPI0011 device, so that if either device is present *and* enabled we don't register an input-dev for the powerbutton.

Commit 9b13a4ca ("Input: axp20x-pek - do not register input device on some systems") added a check for the INTCFD9 ACPI device which also handles the powerbutton as on some systems the powerbutton is connected to both the PMIC, handled by axp20x-pek, and to a gpio on the SoC, handled by soc_button_array which attaches itself to the INTCFD9 ACPI device. Testing + comparing DSDTs has shown that this only happens on Cherry Trail devices with an AXP288 PMIC, the AXP288 PMIC is also used on Bay Trail devices but there the power button is only connected to the PMIC and not handled by soc_button_array. This means that the INTCFD9 check has caused a regression on Bay Trail devices, causing power-button presses to no longer be seen. This commit fixes this by limiting the check to devices where the ACPI node for the AXP288 contains a _HRV (hardware revision) attribute with a value of 3 which indicates we are dealing with a Cherry Trail platform.

In this particular case we've had Reserving 4096MB of memory at 128MB for crashkernel (System RAM: 51200MB) so the low 2GB is mostly depleted. Fix this by considering memblock allocations in the initial static initialization estimation. Move the max_initialise to reset_deferred_meminit and implement a simple memblock_reserved_memory helper which iterates all reserved blocks and sums the size of all that start below the given address. The cumulative size is than added on top of the initial estimation. This is still not ideal because reset_deferred_meminit doesn't consider holes and so reservation might be above the initial estimation whihch we ignore but let's make the logic simpler until we really need to handle more complicated cases.

KVM uses get_user_pages() to resolve its stage2 faults. KVM sets the FOLL_HWPOISON flag causing faultin_page() to return -EHWPOISON when it finds a VM_FAULT_HWPOISON. KVM handles these hwpoison pages as a special case. (check_user_page_hwpoison()) When huge pages are involved, this doesn't work so well. get_user_pages() calls follow_hugetlb_page(), which stops early if it receives VM_FAULT_HWPOISON from hugetlb_fault(), eventually returning -EFAULT to the caller. The step to map this to -EHWPOISON based on the FOLL_ flags is missing. The hwpoison special case is skipped, and -EFAULT is returned to user-space, causing Qemu or kvmtool to exit. Instead, move this VM_FAULT_ to errno mapping code into a header file and use it from faultin_page() and follow_hugetlb_page(). With this, KVM works as expected. This isn't a problem for arm64 today as we haven't enabled MEMORY_FAILURE, but I can't see any reason this doesn't happen on x86 too, so I think this should be a fix. This doesn't apply earlier than stable's v4.11.1 due to all sorts of cleanup. [james.morse@arm.com: add vm_fault_to_errno() call to faultin_page()] suggested.

Since PageMlocked stays cleared, the NR_MLOCK accounting gets permanently disrupted by this. Fix it by counting the number of page whose PageMlock flag is cleared.

On failing to migrate a page, soft_offline_huge_page() performs the necessary update to the hugepage ref-count. But when !hugepage_migration_supported() , unmap_and_move_hugepage() also decrements the page ref-count for the hugepage. The combined behaviour leaves the ref-count in an inconsistent state. This leads to soft lockups when running the overcommitted hugepage test from mce-tests suite.

We currently have two related PMD vs PTE races in the DAX code. These can both be easily triggered by having two threads reading and writing simultaneously to the same private mapping, with the key being that private mapping reads can be handled with PMDs but private mapping writes are always handled with PTEs so that we can COW. Here is the first race: CPU 0 CPU 1 (private mapping write) __handle_mm_fault() create_huge_pmd() - FALLBACK handle_pte_fault() passes check for pmd_devmap() (private mapping read) __handle_mm_fault() create_huge_pmd() dax_iomap_pmd_fault() inserts PMD dax_iomap_pte_fault() does a PTE fault, but we already have a DAX PMD installed in our page tables at this spot. Here's the second race: CPU 0 CPU 1 (private mapping read) __handle_mm_fault() passes check for pmd_none() create_huge_pmd() dax_iomap_pmd_fault() inserts PMD (private mapping write) __handle_mm_fault() create_huge_pmd() - FALLBACK (private mapping read) __handle_mm_fault() passes check for pmd_none() create_huge_pmd() handle_pte_fault() dax_iomap_pte_fault() inserts PTE dax_iomap_pmd_fault() inserts PMD, but we already have a PTE at this spot. The core of the issue is that while there is isolation between faults to the same range in the DAX fault handlers via our DAX entry locking, there is no isolation between faults in the code in mm/memory.c. This means for instance that this code in __handle_mm_fault() can run: if (pmd_none(*vmf.pmd) && transparent_hugepage_enabled(vma)) { ret = create_huge_pmd(&vmf); But by the time we actually get to run the fault handler called by create_huge_pmd(), the PMD is no longer pmd_none() because a racing PTE fault has installed a normal PMD here as a parent. This is the cause of the 2nd race. The first race is similar - there is the following check in handle_pte_fault(): } else { /* See comment in pte_alloc_one_map() */ if (pmd_devmap(*vmf->pmd) || pmd_trans_unstable(vmf->pmd)) return 0; So if a pmd_devmap() PMD (a DAX PMD) has been installed at vmf->pmd, we will bail and retry the fault. This is correct, but there is nothing preventing the PMD from being installed after this check but before we actually get to the DAX PTE fault handlers. In my testing these races result in the following types of errors: BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:ffff8800a817d280 idx:1 val:1 BUG: non-zero nr_ptes on freeing mm: 15 Fix this issue by having the DAX fault handlers verify that it is safe to continue their fault after they have taken an entry lock to block other racing faults.

When the pmd_devmap() checks were added by 5c7fb56e ("mm, dax: dax-pmd vs thp-pmd vs hugetlbfs-pmd") to add better support for DAX huge pages, they were all added to the end of if() statements after existing pmd_trans_huge() checks. So, things like: - if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd)) + if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd) || pmd_devmap(*pmd)) When further checks were added after pmd_trans_unstable() checks by commit 7267ec00 ("mm: postpone page table allocation until we have page to map") they were also added at the end of the conditional: + if (pmd_trans_unstable(fe->pmd) || pmd_devmap(*fe->pmd)) This ordering is fine for pmd_trans_huge(), but doesn't work for pmd_trans_unstable(). This is because DAX huge pages trip the bad_pmd() check inside of pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() (called by pmd_trans_unstable()), which prints out a warning and returns 1. So, we do end up doing the right thing, but only after spamming dmesg with suspicious looking messages: mm/pgtable-generic.c:39: bad pmd ffff8808daa49b88(84000001006000a5) Reorder these checks in a helper so that pmd_devmap() is checked first, avoiding the error messages, and add a comment explaining why the ordering is important.

This is a side effect of commit 9a67f648 ("mm: consolidate GFP_NOFAIL checks in the allocator slowpath") because that commit silently changed the behavior from /* Avoid allocations with no watermarks from looping endlessly */ to /* * Give up allocations without trying memory reserves if selected * as an OOM victim */ in __alloc_pages_slowpath() by moving the location to check TIF_MEMDIE flag. I have noticed this change but I didn't post a patch because I thought it is an acceptable change other than noise by warn_alloc() because !__GFP_NOFAIL allocations are allowed to fail. But we overlooked that failing memory allocation from page fault path makes difference due to the race window explained above. While it might be possible to add a check to pagefault_out_of_memory() that prevents the first victim from calling out_of_memory() or remove out_of_memory() from pagefault_out_of_memory(), changing pagefault_out_of_memory() does not suppress noise by warn_alloc() when allocating thread was selected as an OOM victim. There is little point with printing similar backtraces and memory information from both out_of_memory() and warn_alloc(). Instead, if we guarantee that current thread can try allocations with no watermarks once when current thread looping inside __alloc_pages_slowpath() was selected as an OOM victim, we can follow "who can use memory reserves" rules and suppress noise by warn_alloc() and prevent memory allocations from page fault path from calling pagefault_out_of_memory(). If we take the comment literally, this patch would do - if (test_thread_flag(TIF_MEMDIE)) - goto nopage; + if (alloc_flags == ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS || (gfp_mask & __GFP_NOMEMALLOC)) + goto nopage; because gfp_pfmemalloc_allowed() returns false if __GFP_NOMEMALLOC is given. But if I recall correctly (I couldn't find the message), the condition is meant to apply to only OOM victims despite the comment. Therefore, this patch preserves TIF_MEMDIE check.

memcg_propagate_slab_attrs() abuses the sysfs attribute file functions to propagate settings from the root kmem_cache to a newly created kmem_cache. It does that with: attr->show(root, buf); attr->store(new, buf, strlen(bug); Aside of being a lazy and absurd hackery this is broken because it does not check the return value of the show() function. Some of the show() functions return 0 w/o touching the buffer. That means in such a case the store function is called with the stale content of the previous show(). That causes nonsense like invoking kmem_cache_shrink() on a newly created kmem_cache. In the worst case it would cause handing in an uninitialized buffer. This should be rewritten proper by adding a propagate() callback to those slub_attributes which must be propagated and avoid that insane conversion to and from ASCII, but that's too large for a hot fix. Check at least the return value of the show() function, so calling store() with stale content is prevented.

Commit db2aa7fd ("initramfs: allow again choice of the embedded initram compression algorithm") introduced the possibility to select the initramfs compression algorithm from Kconfig and while this is a nice feature it broke the use case described below. Here is what my build system does: - kernel is initially configured not to have an initramfs included - build the user space root file system - re-configure the kernel to have an initramfs included (CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="/path/to/romfs") and set relevant CONFIG_INITRAMFS options, in my case, no compression option (CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE) - kernel is re-built with these options -> kernel+initramfs image is copied - kernel is re-built again without these options -> kernel image is copied Building a kernel without an initramfs means setting this option: CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="" (and this one only) whereas building a kernel with an initramfs means setting these options: CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="/home/fainelli/work/uclinux-rootfs/romfs /home/fainelli/work/uclinux-rootfs/misc/initramfs.dev" CONFIG_INITRAMFS_ROOT_UID=1000 CONFIG_INITRAMFS_ROOT_GID=1000 CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE=y CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION="" Commit db2aa7fd ("initramfs: allow again choice of the embedded initram compression algorithm") is problematic because CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION which is used to determine the initramfs_data.cpio extension/compression is a string, and due to how Kconfig works it will evaluate in order, how to assign it. Setting CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE with CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="" cannot possibly work (because of the depends on INITRAMFS_SOURCE!="" imposed on CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION ) yet we still get CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION assigned to ".gz" because CONFIG_RD_GZIP=y is set in my kernel, even when there is no initramfs being built. So we basically end-up generating two initramfs_data.cpio* files, one without extension, and one with .gz. This causes usr/Makefile to track usr/initramfs_data.cpio.gz, and not usr/initramfs_data.cpio anymore, that is also largely problematic after 9e3596b0 ("kbuild: initramfs cleanup, set target from Kconfig") because we used to track all possible initramfs_data files in the $(targets) variable before that commit. The end result is that the kernel with an initramfs clearly does not contain what we expect it to, it has a stale initramfs_data.cpio file built into it, and we keep re-generating an initramfs_data.cpio.gz file which is not the one that we want to include in the kernel image proper. The fix consists in hiding CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION when CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="". This puts us back in a state to the pre-4.10 behavior where we can properly disable and re-enable initramfs within the same kernel .config file, and be in control of what CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION is set to.
