Since this matches the byte-order of struct ieee80211_ht_cap, all is seemingly well. What the current code does not do, and what these warnings expose, is clearly communicate what the fields in struct add_sta_param represent -- values with a specific (little endian) byte order. This will lead to problems if the values are ever actually used by the host, and that host is not little endian. The proposed change addresses this by embedding a struct ieee80211_ht_cap into struct add_sta_param. When the values are later packed out, the newly embedded struct is copied directly into the outbound buffer. All 16 and 32 bit types are treated as little endian and marked as such. Future use of the values by the host would still require conversion, or sparse would flag them again. The following items are required for this to be correct: 1. The data is not currently used by the host. 2. struct ieee80211_ht_cap is packed. 3. The packing of the fields matches the order in struct ieee80211_ht_cap. This is similar, I believe, to how the same data is handled in marvell/mwifiex/11n.c. Test-compiled/loaded against staging-next on x86_64 Test-compiled against staging-next for ARM. Applied/built against staging-testing. Testing consists of compilation for the above trees/targets, and a sparse check, no functional testing.

The commit 9304b5b0 ("staging: rtl8192u: Fix sparse warnings in r8192U_dm.c") adds casting of le16 from cpu endianness. Therefore constructing u4bAcParam potentially using big-endian order. This patch converts the u4bAcParam parameter back to little-endian after it has been constructed. Hence on big-endian architectures the parameter will remain as little-endian.

Finally, OOM happens. The problem is that get_scan_count determines nr_to_scan with eligible zones so although priority drops to zero, it couldn't reclaim any pages if the LRU contains mostly ineligible pages. get_scan_count: size = lruvec_lru_size(lruvec, lru, sc->reclaim_idx); size = size >> sc->priority; Assumes sc->priority is 0 and LRU list is as follows. N-N-N-N-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H (Ie, small eligible pages are in the head of LRU but others are almost ineligible pages) In that case, size becomes 4 so VM want to scan 4 pages but 4 pages from tail of the LRU are not eligible pages. If get_scan_count counts skipped pages, it doesn't reclaim any pages remained after scanning 4 pages so it ends up OOM happening. This patch makes isolate_lru_pages try to scan pages until it encounters eligible zones's pages. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: clean up mind-bending `for' statement.

This is based on a patch from Jan Kara that fixed the equivalent race in the DAX PTE fault path. Currently DAX PMD read fault can race with write(2) in the following way: CPU1 - write(2) CPU2 - read fault dax_iomap_pmd_fault() ->iomap_begin() - sees hole dax_iomap_rw() iomap_apply() ->iomap_begin - allocates blocks dax_iomap_actor() invalidate_inode_pages2_range() - there's nothing to invalidate grab_mapping_entry() - we add huge zero page to the radix tree and map it to page tables The result is that hole page is mapped into page tables (and thus zeros are seen in mmap) while file has data written in that place. Fix the problem by locking exception entry before mapping blocks for the fault. That way we are sure invalidate_inode_pages2_range() call for racing write will either block on entry lock waiting for the fault to finish (and unmap stale page tables after that) or read fault will see already allocated blocks by write(2).

DAX will return to locking exceptional entry before mapping blocks for a page fault to fix possible races with concurrent writes. To avoid lock inversion between exceptional entry lock and transaction start, start the transaction already in ext4_dax_huge_fault().
