sysv sem has two lock modes: One with per-semaphore locks, one lock mode with a single global lock for the whole array. When switching from the per-semaphore locks to the global lock, all per-semaphore locks must be scanned for ongoing operations. The patch adds a hysteresis for switching from the global lock to the per semaphore locks. This reduces how often the per-semaphore locks must be scanned. Compared to the initial patch, this is a simplified solution: Setting USE_GLOBAL_LOCK_HYSTERESIS to 1 restores the current behavior. In theory, a workload with exactly 10 simple sops and then one complex op now scales a bit worse, but this is pure theory: If there is concurrency, the it won't be exactly 10:1:10:1:10:1:... If there is no concurrency, then there is no need for scalability.

a) The ACQUIRE in spin_lock() applies to the read, not to the store, at least for powerpc. This forces to add a smp_mb() into the fast path. b) The memory barrier provided by spin_unlock_wait() is right now arch dependent. Therefore: Use spin_lock()/spin_unlock() instead of spin_unlock_wait(). Advantage: faster single op semop calls(), observed +8.9% on x86. (the other solution would be arch dependencies in ipc/sem). Disadvantage: slower complex op semop calls, if (and only if) there are no sleeping operations. The next patch adds hysteresis, this further reduces the probability that the slow path is used.

Commit 4a9d4b02 ("switch fput to task_work_add") implements a schedule_work() for completing fput(), but did not guarantee calling __fput() after unpacking initramfs. Because of this, there is a possibility that during boot a driver can see ETXTBSY when it tries to load a binary from initramfs as fput() is still pending on that binary. This patch makes sure that fput() is completed after unpacking initramfs and removes the call to flush_delayed_fput() in kernel_init() which happens very late after unpacking initramfs.

The aio interface adds substantial attack surface for a feature that's not being exposed by Android at all. It's unlikely that anyone is using the kernel feature directly either. This feature is rarely used even on servers. The glibc POSIX aio calls really use thread pools. The lack of widespread usage also means this is relatively poorly audited/tested. The kernel's aio rarely provides performance benefits over using a thread pool and is quite incomplete in terms of system call coverage along with having edge cases where blocking can occur. Part of the performance issue is the fact that it only supports direct io, not buffered io. The existing API is considered fundamentally flawed and it's unlikely it will be expanded, but rather replaced: https://marc.info/?l=linux-aio&m=145255815216051&w=2 Since ext4 encryption means no direct io support, kernel aio isn't even going to work properly on Android devices using file-based encryption.

In case if epoll_ctl is called with operation EPOLL_CTL_DEL then @epds.events variable allocated on stack may contain random bits which we test then for EPOLLEXCLUSIVE. Since currently the test look like if (epds.events & EPOLLEXCLUSIVE) { if (op == EPOLL_CTL_MOD) goto error_tgt_fput; if (op == EPOLL_CTL_ADD && (is_file_epoll(tf.file) || (epds.events & ~EPOLLEXCLUSIVE_OK_BITS))) goto error_tgt_fput; } Nothing serious will happen even if epds.events has this bit set, still better to be on safe side and make sure that we're to test this bit at all.

Currently all the p_paddr of PT_LOAD headers are assigned to 0, which is not true and could be misleading, since 0 is a valid physical address. User space tools like makedumpfile needs to know physical address for PT_LOAD segments of direct mapped regions. Therefore this patch updates paddr for such regions. It also sets an invalid paddr (-1) for other regions, so that user space tool can know whether a physical address provided in PT_LOAD is correct or not. I do not know why it was 0, which is a valid physical address. But certainly, it might break some user space tools, and those need to be fixed. For example, see following code from kexec-tools kexec/kexec-elf.c:build_mem_phdrs() if ((phdr->p_paddr + phdr->p_memsz) < phdr->p_paddr) { /* The memory address wraps */ if (probe_debug) { fprintf(stderr, "ELF address wrap around\n"); } return -1; } We do not need to perform above check for an invalid physical address. I think, kexec-tools and makedumpfile will need fixup. I already have those fixup which will be sent upstream once this patch makes through. Pro with this approach is that, it will help to calculate variable like page_offset, phys_base from PT_LOAD even when they are randomized and therefore will reduce many variable and version specific values in user space tools. Having an ASLR offset information can help to translate an identity mapped virtual address to a physical address. But that would be an additional field in PT_LOAD header structure and an arch dependent value. Moreover, sending a valid physical address like 0 does not seem right. So, IMHO it is better to fix that and send valid physical address when available (identity mapped).

GUI environments seem to be becoming more agressive at scanning filesystems, to the point where autofs cannot expire mounts at all. This is one key reason the update of the autofs dentry info last_used field is done in the expire system when the dentry is seen to be in use. But somewhere along the way instances of the update has crept back into the autofs path walk functions which, with the more aggressive file access patterns, is preventing expiration. Changing the update in the path walk functions allows autofs to at least make progress in spite of frequent immediate re-mounts from file accesses.

Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a full kprobes.h. This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers... instead just keep a generic asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of clutter as possible. Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not. Then for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled CONFIG_KPROBES. Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES, this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely. Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them. Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with the default asm-generic solution. This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without bringing the full kitchen sink of header files. Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its kprobes.h: sh, arch. The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added. We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless kprobes have been enabled. In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from include/linux/kprobes.h. During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition of the breakput instruction up. Some refer to this as BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION. This must be kept outside of the #ifdef CONFIG_KPROBES guard.

Change the zpool/compressor param callback function to release the zswap_pools_lock spinlock before calling param_set_charp, since that function may sleep when it calls kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL. While this problem has existed for a while, I wasn't able to trigger it using a tight loop changing either/both the zpool and compressor params; I think it's very unlikely to be an issue on the stable kernels, especially since most zswap users will change the compressor and/or zpool from sysfs only one time each boot - or zero times, if they add the params to the kernel boot.

If either the compressor and/or zpool param are invalid at boot, and their default value is also invalid, set the param to the empty string to indicate there is no compressor and/or zpool configured. This allows users to check the sysfs interface to see which param needs changing.

Allow zswap to initialize at boot even if it can't create its pool due to a failure to create a zpool and/or compressor. Allow those to be created later, from the sysfs module param interface.

The two alternative implementations of dax_iomap_fault have different prototypes, and one of them is obviously wrong as seen from this build warning: fs/dax.c: In function 'dax_iomap_fault': fs/dax.c:1462:35: error: passing argument 2 of 'dax_iomap_pmd_fault' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Werror=discarded-qualifiers] This marks the argument 'const' as in all the related functions.
