Current pageblock isolation logic could isolate each pageblock individually. This causes freepage accounting problem if freepage with pageblock order on isolate pageblock is merged with other freepage on normal pageblock. We can prevent merging by restricting max order of merging to pageblock order if freepage is on isolate pageblock. A side-effect of this change is that there could be non-merged buddy freepage even if finishing pageblock isolation, because undoing pageblock isolation is just to move freepage from isolate buddy list to normal buddy list rather than to consider merging. So, the patch also makes undoing pageblock isolation consider freepage merge. When un-isolation, freepage with more than pageblock order and it's buddy are checked. If they are on normal pageblock, instead of just moving, we isolate the freepage and free it in order to get merged.

All the caller of __free_one_page() has similar freepage counting logic, so we can move it to __free_one_page(). This reduce line of code and help future maintenance. This is also preparation step for "mm/page_alloc: restrict max order of merging on isolated pageblock" which fix the freepage counting problem on freepage with more than pageblock order.

In free_pcppages_bulk(), we use cached migratetype of freepage to determine type of buddy list where freepage will be added. This information is stored when freepage is added to pcp list, so if isolation of pageblock of this freepage begins after storing, this cached information could be stale. In other words, it has original migratetype rather than MIGRATE_ISOLATE. There are two problems caused by this stale information. One is that we can't keep these freepages from being allocated. Although this pageblock is isolated, freepage will be added to normal buddy list so that it could be allocated without any restriction. And the other problem is incorrect freepage accounting. Freepages on isolate pageblock should not be counted for number of freepage. Following is the code snippet in free_pcppages_bulk(). /* MIGRATE_MOVABLE list may include MIGRATE_RESERVEs */ __free_one_page(page, page_to_pfn(page), zone, 0, mt); trace_mm_page_pcpu_drain(page, 0, mt); if (likely(!is_migrate_isolate_page(page))) { __mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_FREE_PAGES, 1); if (is_migrate_cma(mt)) __mod_zone_page_state(zone, NR_FREE_CMA_PAGES, 1); } As you can see above snippet, current code already handle second problem, incorrect freepage accounting, by re-fetching pageblock migratetype through is_migrate_isolate_page(page). But, because this re-fetched information isn't used for __free_one_page(), first problem would not be solved. This patch try to solve this situation to re-fetch pageblock migratetype before __free_one_page() and to use it for __free_one_page(). In addition to move up position of this re-fetch, this patch use optimization technique, re-fetching migratetype only if there is isolate pageblock. Pageblock isolation is rare event, so we can avoid re-fetching in common case with this optimization. This patch also correct migratetype of the tracepoint output.

Before describing bugs itself, I first explain definition of freepage. 1. pages on buddy list are counted as freepage. 2. pages on isolate migratetype buddy list are *not* counted as freepage. 3. pages on cma buddy list are counted as CMA freepage, too. Now, I describe problems and related patch. Patch 1: There is race conditions on getting pageblock migratetype that it results in misplacement of freepages on buddy list, incorrect freepage count and un-availability of freepage. Patch 2: Freepages on pcp list could have stale cached information to determine migratetype of buddy list to go. This causes misplacement of freepages on buddy list and incorrect freepage count. Patch 4: Merging between freepages on different migratetype of pageblocks will cause freepages accouting problem. This patch fixes it. Without patchset [3], above problem doesn't happens on my CMA allocation test, because CMA reserved pages aren't used at all. So there is no chance for above race. With patchset [3], I did simple CMA allocation test and get below result: - Virtual machine, 4 cpus, 1024 MB memory, 256 MB CMA reservation - run kernel build (make -j16) on background - 30 times CMA allocation(8MB * 30 = 240MB) attempts in 5 sec interval - Result: more than 5000 freepage count are missed With patchset [3] and this patchset, I found that no freepage count are missed so that I conclude that problems are solved. On my simple memory offlining test, these problems also occur on that environment, too. This patch (of 4): There are two paths to reach core free function of buddy allocator, __free_one_page(), one is free_one_page()->__free_one_page() and the other is free_hot_cold_page()->free_pcppages_bulk()->__free_one_page(). Each paths has race condition causing serious problems. At first, this patch is focused on first type of freepath. And then, following patch will solve the problem in second type of freepath. In the first type of freepath, we got migratetype of freeing page without holding the zone lock, so it could be racy. There are two cases of this race. 1. pages are added to isolate buddy list after restoring orignal migratetype CPU1 CPU2 get migratetype => return MIGRATE_ISOLATE call free_one_page() with MIGRATE_ISOLATE grab the zone lock unisolate pageblock release the zone lock grab the zone lock call __free_one_page() with MIGRATE_ISOLATE freepage go into isolate buddy list, although pageblock is already unisolated This may cause two problems. One is that we can't use this page anymore until next isolation attempt of this pageblock, because freepage is on isolate buddy list. The other is that freepage accouting could be wrong due to merging between different buddy list. Freepages on isolate buddy list aren't counted as freepage, but ones on normal buddy list are counted as freepage. If merge happens, buddy freepage on normal buddy list is inevitably moved to isolate buddy list without any consideration of freepage accouting so it could be incorrect. 2. pages are added to normal buddy list while pageblock is isolated. It is similar with above case. This also may cause two problems. One is that we can't keep these freepages from being allocated. Although this pageblock is isolated, freepage would be added to normal buddy list so that it could be allocated without any restriction. And the other problem is same as case 1, that it, incorrect freepage accouting. This race condition would be prevented by checking migratetype again with holding the zone lock. Because it is somewhat heavy operation and it isn't needed in common case, we want to avoid rechecking as much as possible. So this patch introduce new variable, nr_isolate_pageblock in struct zone to check if there is isolated pageblock. With this, we can avoid to re-check migratetype in common case and do it only if there is isolated pageblock or migratetype is MIGRATE_ISOLATE. This solve above mentioned problems. Changes from v3: Add one more check in free_one_page() that checks whether migratetype is MIGRATE_ISOLATE or not. Without this, abovementioned case 1 could happens.

Commit 7d49d886 ("mm, compaction: reduce zone checking frequency in the migration scanner") has a side-effect that changes the iteration range calculation. Before the change, block_end_pfn is calculated using start_pfn, but now it blindly adds pageblock_nr_pages to the previous value. This causes the problem that isolation_start_pfn is larger than block_end_pfn when we isolate the page with more than pageblock order. In this case, isolation would fail due to an invalid range parameter. To prevent this, this patch implements skipping the range until a proper target pageblock is met. Without this patch, CMA with more than pageblock order always fails but with this patch it will succeed.

zram could kunmap_atomic() a NULL pointer in a rare situation: a zram page becomes a full-zeroed page after a partial write io.

Because we build kernels with drivers built in for many platforms, it's normal for the ibmpowernv driver to be loaded on systems that don't have the appropriate hardware. Currently the driver spams the log with: ibmpowernv ibmpowernv.0: Opal node 'sensors' not found ibmpowernv: Platfrom driver probe failed But there is no error, this machine is not a powernv and doesn't have the hardware. So change the sensors message to dev_dbg(), and only print an error about the probe failing if it's not ENODEV. Also fix the spelling of "Platfrom" and print the actual error value.

Currently if the user passes an invalid value on the kernel command line then the kernel will crash during argument parsing. On most systems this is very hard to debug because the console hasn't been initialized yet. This is a regression due to commit 51e158c1 ("param: hand arguments after -- straight to init") which, in response to the systemd debug controversy, made it possible to explicitly pass arguments to init. To achieve this parse_args() was extended from simply returning an error code to returning a pointer. Regretably the new init args logic does not perform a proper validity check on the pointer resulting in a crash. This patch fixes the validity check. Should the check fail then no arguments will be passed to init. This is reasonable and matches how the kernel treats its own arguments (i.e. no error recovery).

The buffers are not empty so ring_buffer_wait() returns immediately. But tracing_buffers_splice_read() calls ring_buffer_read_page() with full=1, meaning it only wants to read a full page. When the full page is not available, tracing_buffers_splice_read() tries to wait again with ring_buffer_wait(), which again returns immediately, and so on. Fix this by adding a "full" argument to ring_buffer_wait() which will make ring_buffer_wait() wait until the writer has left the reader's page, i.e. until full-page reads will succeed.

The walk code was using a 'ro_spine' to hold it's locked btree nodes. But this data structure is designed for the rolling lock scheme, and as such automatically unlocks blocks that are two steps up the call chain. This is not suitable for the simple recursive walk algorithm, which retraces its steps. This code is only used by the persistent array code, which in turn is only used by dm-cache. In order to trigger it you need to have a mapping tree that is more than 2 levels deep; which equates to 8-16 million cache blocks. For instance a 4T ssd with a very small block size of 32k only just triggers this bug. The fix just places the locked blocks on the stack, and stops using the ro_spine altogether.

Commit e7cd1d1e ("mfd: twl4030-power: Add generic reset configuration") enabled configuring the PM features for twl4030. This caused poweroff command to fail on devices that have the BCI charger on twl4030 wired, or have power wired for VBUS. Instead of powering off, the device reboots. This is because voltage is detected on charger or VBUS with the default bits enabled for the power transition registers. To fix the issue, let's just clear VBUS and CHG bits as we want poweroff command to keep the system powered off.

All interrupts coming from MUIC were ignored because interrupt source register was masked. The Maxim 77693 has a "interrupt source" - a separate register and interrupts which give information about PMIC block triggering the individual interrupt (charger, topsys, MUIC, flash LED). By default bootloader could initialize this register to "mask all" value. In such case (observed on Trats2 board) MUIC interrupts won't be generated regardless of their mask status. Regmap irq chip was unmasking individual MUIC interrupts but the source was masked Before introducing regmap irq chip this interrupt source was unmasked, read and acked. Reading and acking is not necessary but unmasking is.

Interrupts coming from Maxim77693 MUIC block (MicroUSB Interface Controller) were not handled at all because wrong regmap was used for MUIC's regmap_irq_chip. The MUIC component of Maxim 77693 uses different I2C address thus second regmap is created and used by max77693 extcon driver. The registers for MUIC interrupts are also in that block and should be handled by that second regmap. However the regmap irq chip for MUIC was configured with default regmap which could not read MUIC registers.
