The difference between extra-y and always-y is obscure. Basically, Kbuild builds targets listed in extra-y and always-y in visited Makefiles without relying on any dependency. The difference is that extra-y is used to list the targets needed for vmlinux whereas always-y is used to list the targets that must be always built irrespective of final targets. Kbuild skips extra-y when it is building only modules (i.e. 'make modules'). This is the long-standing behavior since extra-y was introduced in 2003, and it is explained in that commit log [1]. For clarification, this is the extra-y vs always-y table: extra-y always-y 'make' y y 'make vmlinux' y y 'make modules' n y Kbuild skips extra-y also when building external modules since obviously it never builds vmlinux. Unfortunately, extra-y is wrongly used in many places of upstream code, and even in external modules. Using extra-y in external module Makefiles is wrong. What you should use is probably always-y or 'targets'. The current documentation for extra-y is misleading. I rewrote it, and moved it to the section 3.7. always-y is not documented anywhere. I added.

The if_changed macro is currently explained in the section "Commands useful for building a boot image", but the use of if_changed is not limited to the boot image. It is often used together with custom rules. Let's split it as a separate section, and insert it after the "Custom Rules" section. I slightly reworded the explanation, re-numbered to fill the <deleted> section, and also fixed the broken indentation of the Note: part. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

The two sections "3.10 Special Rules" and "7.8 Custom kbuild commands" are related because you must understand both of them when you write custom rules. Actually I do not understand the policy about what to go into "3 The kbuild files" and what into "7 Architecture Makefile". This commit reworks the custom rule explanation as follows: - Merged "7.8 Custom kbuild commands" into "3.10 Special Rules". - Reword "Special Rules" to "Custom Rules" for consistency. - Update the example for kecho because the blackfin Makefile does not exist any more. - Replace the example for cmd_<command> with a simpler one.

Precisely speaking, the arch directory is specified by $(SRCARCH), not $(ARCH). In old days, $(ARCH) actually matched to the arch directory because 32-bit and 64-bit were supported as separate architectures. Most architectures (except arm/arm64) were unified like follows: arch/i386, arch/x86_64 -> arch/x86 arch/sh, arch/sh64 -> arch/sh arch/sparc, arch/sparc64 -> arch/sparc To not break the user interface, commit 6752ed90 ("Kbuild: allow arch/xxx to use a different source path") introduced SRCARCH to point to the arch directory, still allowing to pass in the former ARCH=i386 or ARCH=x86_64. Update the documents for preciseness, and add the explanation of SRCARCH. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org>

On success, mmap should return the begin address of newly mapped area, but patch "mm: mmap: merge vma after call_mmap() if possible" set vm_start of newly merged vma to return value addr. Users of mmap will get wrong address if vma is merged after call_mmap(). We fix this by moving the assignment to addr before merging vma. We have a driver which changes vm_flags, and this bug is found by our testcases.

Adrian Moreno was ruuning a kubernetes 1.19 + containerd/docker workload using hugetlbfs. In this environment the issue is reproduced by: - Start a simple pod that uses the recently added HugePages medium feature (pod yaml attached) - Start a DPDK app. It doesn't need to run successfully (as in transfer packets) nor interact with real hardware. It seems just initializing the EAL layer (which handles hugepage reservation and locking) is enough to trigger the issue - Delete the Pod (or let it "Complete"). This would result in a kworker thread going into a tight loop (top output): 1425 root 20 0 0 0 0 R 99.7 0.0 5:22.45 kworker/28:7+cgroup_destroy 'perf top -g' reports: - 63.28% 0.01% [kernel] [k] worker_thread - 49.97% worker_thread - 52.64% process_one_work - 62.08% css_killed_work_fn - hugetlb_cgroup_css_offline 41.52% _raw_spin_lock - 2.82% _cond_resched rcu_all_qs 2.66% PageHuge - 0.57% schedule - 0.57% __schedule We are spinning in the do-while loop in hugetlb_cgroup_css_offline. Worse yet, we are holding the master cgroup lock (cgroup_mutex) while infinitely spinning. Little else can be done on the system as the cgroup_mutex can not be acquired. Do note that the issue can be reproduced by simply offlining a hugetlb cgroup containing pages with reservation counts. The loop in hugetlb_cgroup_css_offline is moving page counts from the cgroup being offlined to the parent cgroup. This is done for each hstate, and is repeated until hugetlb_cgroup_have_usage returns false. The routine moving counts (hugetlb_cgroup_move_parent) is only moving 'usage' counts. The routine hugetlb_cgroup_have_usage is checking for both 'usage' and 'reservation' counts. Discussion about what to do with reservation counts when reparenting was discussed here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/CAHS8izMFAYTgxym-Hzb_JmkTK1N_S9tGN71uS6MFV+R7swYu5A@mail.gmail.com/ The decision was made to leave a zombie cgroup for with reservation counts. Unfortunately, the code checking reservation counts was incorrectly added to hugetlb_cgroup_have_usage. To fix the issue, simply remove the check for reservation counts. While fixing this issue, a related bug in hugetlb_cgroup_css_offline was noticed. The hstate index is not reinitialized each time through the do-while loop. Fix this as well.

The error handling in hugetlb_allocate_area() was incorrect for the hugetlb_shared test case. Previously the behavior was: - mmap a hugetlb area - If this fails, set the pointer to NULL, and carry on - mmap an alias of the same hugetlb fd - If this fails, munmap the original area If the original mmap failed, it's likely the second one did too. If both failed, we'd blindly try to munmap a NULL pointer, causing a SIGSEGV. Instead, "goto fail" so we return before trying to mmap the alias. This issue can be hit "in real life" by forgetting to set /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages (leaving it at 0), and then trying to run the hugetlb_shared test. Another small improvement is, when the original mmap fails, don't just print "it failed": perror(), so we can see *why*. :) Signed-off-by: Axel Rasmussen <axelrasmussen@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Shuah Khan <shuah@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Cc: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@redhat.com> Cc: David Alan Gilbert <dgilbert@redhat.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20201204203443.2714693-1-axelrasmussen@google.comSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Even though this option showed some amount improvement(e.g., 30%) in some arm32 platforms, it has been headache to maintain since it have abused APIs[1](e.g., unmap_kernel_range in atomic context). Since we are approaching to deprecate 32bit machines and already made the config option available for only builtin build since v5.8, lastly it has been not default option in zsmalloc, it's time to drop the option for better maintenance.

When investigating a slab cache bloat problem, significant amount of negative dentry cache was seen, but confusingly they neither got shrunk by reclaimer (the host has very tight memory) nor be shrunk by dropping cache. The vmcore shows there are over 14M negative dentry objects on lru, but tracing result shows they were even not scanned at all. Further investigation shows the memcg's vfs shrinker_map bit is not set. So the reclaimer or dropping cache just skip calling vfs shrinker. So we have to reboot the hosts to get the memory back. I didn't manage to come up with a reproducer in test environment, and the problem can't be reproduced after rebooting. But it seems there is race between shrinker map bit clear and reparenting by code inspection. The hypothesis is elaborated as below. The memcg hierarchy on our production environment looks like: root / \ system user The main workloads are running under user slice's children, and it creates and removes memcg frequently. So reparenting happens very often under user slice, but no task is under user slice directly. So with the frequent reparenting and tight memory pressure, the below hypothetical race condition may happen: CPU A CPU B reparent dst->nr_items == 0 shrinker: total_objects == 0 add src->nr_items to dst set_bit return SHRINK_EMPTY clear_bit child memcg offline replace child's kmemcg_id with parent's (in memcg_offline_kmem()) list_lru_del() between shrinker runs see parent's kmemcg_id dec dst->nr_items reparent again dst->nr_items may go negative due to concurrent list_lru_del() The second run of shrinker: read nr_items without any synchronization, so it may see intermediate negative nr_items then total_objects may return 0 coincidently keep the bit cleared dst->nr_items != 0 skip set_bit add scr->nr_item to dst After this point dst->nr_item may never go zero, so reparenting will not set shrinker_map bit anymore. And since there is no task under user slice directly, so no new object will be added to its lru to set the shrinker map bit either. That bit is kept cleared forever. How does list_lru_del() race with reparenting? It is because reparenting replaces children's kmemcg_id to parent's without protecting from nlru->lock, so list_lru_del() may see parent's kmemcg_id but actually deleting items from child's lru, but dec'ing parent's nr_items, so the parent's nr_items may go negative as commit 2788cf0c ("memcg: reparent list_lrus and free kmemcg_id on css offline") says. Since it is impossible that dst->nr_items goes negative and src->nr_items goes zero at the same time, so it seems we could set the shrinker map bit iff src->nr_items != 0. We could synchronize list_lru_count_one() and reparenting with nlru->lock, but it seems checking src->nr_items in reparenting is the simplest and avoids lock contention.

Commit 10befea9 ("mm: memcg/slab: use a single set of kmem_caches for all allocations") introduced a regression into the handling of the obj_cgroup_charge() return value. If a non-zero value is returned (indicating of exceeding one of memory.max limits), the allocation should fail, instead of falling back to non-accounted mode. To make the code more readable, move memcg_slab_pre_alloc_hook() and memcg_slab_post_alloc_hook() calling conditions into bodies of these hooks.

'format_corename()' will splite 'core_pattern' on spaces when it is in pipe mode, and take helper_argv[0] as the path to usermode executable. It works fine in most cases. However, if there is a space between '|' and '/file/path', such as '| /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g', then helper_argv[0] will be parsed as '', and users will get a 'Core dump to | disabled'. It is not friendly to users, as the pattern above was valid previously. Fix this by ignoring the spaces between '|' and '/file/path'.

"xargs echo" is not a safe way to remove line breaks because the input may exceed the command line limit and xargs may break it up into multiple invocations of echo. This should never happen because scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh expects all undefined symbols are placed in the second line of .mod files. One possible way is to replace "xargs echo" with "sed ':x;N;$!bx;s/\n/ /g'" or something, but I rewrote the code by using awk because it is more readable. This issue was reported by Sami Tolvanen; in his Clang LTO patch set, $(multi-used-m) is no longer an ELF object, but a thin archive that contains LLVM bitcode files. llvm-nm prints out symbols for each archive member separately, which results a lot of dupications, in some places, beyond the system-defined limit. This problem must be fixed irrespective of LTO, and we must ensure zero possibility of having this issue.

This reverts commit d162219c. The device uses a VIRTIO device ID out of a not-for-production range. Releasing Linux using an ID out of this range will make it conflict with development setups. An official request to reserve an ID for an MEI device is yet to be submitted to the virtio TC, thus there's no chance it will be reserved and fixed in time before the next release. Once requested it usually takes 2-3 weeks to land in the spec, which means the device can be supported with the official ID in the next Linux version if contributors act quickly.
