The hardlockup detector on x86 uses a performance counter based on unhalted CPU cycles and a periodic hrtimer. The hrtimer period is about 2/5 of the performance counter period, so the hrtimer should fire 2-3 times before the performance counter NMI fires. The NMI code checks whether the hrtimer fired since the last invocation. If not, it assumess a hard lockup. The calculation of those periods is based on the nominal CPU frequency. Turbo modes increase the CPU clock frequency and therefore shorten the period of the perf/NMI watchdog. With extreme Turbo-modes (3x nominal frequency) the perf/NMI period is shorter than the hrtimer period which leads to false positives. A simple fix would be to shorten the hrtimer period, but that comes with the side effect of more frequent hrtimer and softlockup thread wakeups, which is not desired. Implement a low pass filter, which checks the perf/NMI period against kernel time. If the perf/NMI fires before 4/5 of the watchdog period has elapsed then the event is ignored and postponed to the next perf/NMI. That solves the problem and avoids the overhead of shorter hrtimer periods and more frequent softlockup thread wakeups.

To do so cleanly introduce macro to get the size of L3 cache line. - Revert include cleanup that sometimes results in build error - MicroMIPS uses bit 0 of the PC to indicate microMIPS mode. Make sure this bit is set for kernel entry as well. - Prevent configuring the kernel for both microMIPS and MT. There are no such CPUs currently and thus the combination is unsupported and results in build errors. This has been sitting in linux-next for a few days and has survived automated testing by Imagination's test farm.

Here is a device has xen-pirq-MSI interrupt. Dom0 might lost interrupt during driver irq_disable/irq_enable. Here is the scenario, 1. irq_disable -> disable_dynirq -> mask_evtchn(irq channel) 2. dev interrupt raised by HW and Xen mark its evtchn as pending 3. irq_enable -> startup_pirq -> eoi_pirq -> clear_evtchn(channel of irq) -> clear pending status 4. consume_one_event process the irq event without pending bit assert which result in interrupt lost once 5. No HW interrupt raising anymore. Now use enable_dynirq for enable_pirq of xen_pirq_chip to remove eoi_pirq when irq_enable.

When starting the xenwatch thread a theoretical deadlock situation is possible: xs_init() contains: task = kthread_run(xenwatch_thread, NULL, "xenwatch"); if (IS_ERR(task)) return PTR_ERR(task); xenwatch_pid = task->pid; And xenwatch_thread() does: mutex_lock(&xenwatch_mutex); ... event->handle->callback(); ... mutex_unlock(&xenwatch_mutex); The callback could call unregister_xenbus_watch() which does: ... if (current->pid != xenwatch_pid) mutex_lock(&xenwatch_mutex); ... In case a watch is firing before xenwatch_pid could be set and the callback of that watch unregisters a watch, then a self-deadlock would occur. Avoid this by setting xenwatch_pid in xenwatch_thread().

However, a parallel shmem_setattr() could access one of these entries directly and add it back to the global shrinklist if it is removed, with the spinlock held. The logic itself looks solid since an entry could be either in a local list or the global list, otherwise it is removed from one of them by list_del_init(). So probably the race condition is that, one CPU is in the middle of INIT_LIST_HEAD() but the other CPU calls list_empty() which returns true too early then the following list_add_tail() sees a corrupted entry. list_empty_careful() is designed to fix this situation.

Revert commit bb01b64c ("mm/balloon_compaction.c: enqueue zero page to balloon device")' Zeroing ballon pages is rather time consuming, especially when a lot of pages are in flight. E.g. 7GB worth of ballooned memory takes 2.8s with __GFP_ZERO while it takes ~491ms without it. The original commit argued that zeroing will help ksmd to merge these pages on the host but this argument is assuming that the host actually marks balloon pages for ksm which is not universally true. So we pay performance penalty for something that even might not be used in the end which is wrong. The host can zero out pages on its own when there is a need.

Nadav reported KSM can corrupt the user data by the TLB batching race[1]. That means data user written can be lost. Quote from Nadav Amit: "For this race we need 4 CPUs: CPU0: Caches a writable and dirty PTE entry, and uses the stale value for write later. CPU1: Runs madvise_free on the range that includes the PTE. It would clear the dirty-bit. It batches TLB flushes. CPU2: Writes 4 to /proc/PID/clear_refs , clearing the PTEs soft-dirty. We care about the fact that it clears the PTE write-bit, and of course, batches TLB flushes. CPU3: Runs KSM. Our purpose is to pass the following test in write_protect_page(): if (pte_write(*pvmw.pte) || pte_dirty(*pvmw.pte) || (pte_protnone(*pvmw.pte) && pte_savedwrite(*pvmw.pte))) Since it will avoid TLB flush. And we want to do it while the PTE is stale. Later, and before replacing the page, we would be able to change the page. Note that all the operations the CPU1-3 perform canhappen in parallel since they only acquire mmap_sem for read. We start with two identical pages. Everything below regards the same page/PTE. CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 CPU3 ---- ---- ---- ---- Write the same value on page [cache PTE as dirty in TLB] MADV_FREE pte_mkclean() 4 > clear_refs pte_wrprotect() write_protect_page() [ success, no flush ] pages_indentical() [ ok ] Write to page different value [Ok, using stale PTE] replace_page() Later, CPU1, CPU2 and CPU3 would flush the TLB, but that is too late. CPU0 already wrote on the page, but KSM ignored this write, and it got lost" In above scenario, MADV_FREE is fixed by changing TLB batching API including [set|clear]_tlb_flush_pending. Remained thing is soft-dirty part. This patch changes soft-dirty uses TLB batching API instead of flush_tlb_mm and KSM checks pending TLB flush by using mm_tlb_flush_pending so that it will flush TLB to avoid data lost if there are other parallel threads pending TLB flush.

Nadav reported parallel MADV_DONTNEED on same range has a stale TLB problem and Mel fixed it[1] and found same problem on MADV_FREE[2]. Quote from Mel Gorman: "The race in question is CPU 0 running madv_free and updating some PTEs while CPU 1 is also running madv_free and looking at the same PTEs. CPU 1 may have writable TLB entries for a page but fail the pte_dirty check (because CPU 0 has updated it already) and potentially fail to flush. Hence, when madv_free on CPU 1 returns, there are still potentially writable TLB entries and the underlying PTE is still present so that a subsequent write does not necessarily propagate the dirty bit to the underlying PTE any more. Reclaim at some unknown time at the future may then see that the PTE is still clean and discard the page even though a write has happened in the meantime. I think this is possible but I could have missed some protection in madv_free that prevents it happening." This patch aims for solving both problems all at once and is ready for other problem with KSM, MADV_FREE and soft-dirty story[3]. TLB batch API(tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu] uses [inc|dec]_tlb_flush_pending and mmu_tlb_flush_pending so that when tlb_finish_mmu is called, we can catch there are parallel threads going on. In that case, forcefully, flush TLB to prevent for user to access memory via stale TLB entry although it fail to gather page table entry. I confirmed this patch works with [4] test program Nadav gave so this patch supersedes "mm: Always flush VMA ranges affected by zap_page_range v2" in current mmotm. NOTE: This patch modifies arch-specific TLB gathering interface(x86, ia64, s390, sh, um). It seems most of architecture are straightforward but s390 need to be careful because tlb_flush_mmu works only if mm->context.flush_mm is set to non-zero which happens only a pte entry really is cleared by ptep_get_and_clear and friends. However, this problem never changes the pte entries but need to flush to prevent memory access from stale tlb.

Currently, tlb_flush_pending is used only for CONFIG_[NUMA_BALANCING| COMPACTION] but upcoming patches to solve subtle TLB flush batching problem will use it regardless of compaction/NUMA so this patch doesn't remove the dependency.

This patch is a preparatory patch for solving race problems caused by TLB batch. For that, we will increase/decrease TLB flush pending count of mm_struct whenever tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu is called. Before making it simple, this patch separates architecture specific part and rename it to arch_tlb_[gather|finish]_mmu and generic part just calls it. It shouldn't change any behavior.
