Commit fec1d011 ("[PATCH] Disable CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID for abnormal exit") has caused a subtle regression in nscd which uses CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID to clear the nscd_certainly_running flag in the shared databases, so that the clients are notified when nscd is restarted. Now, when nscd uses a non-persistent database, clients that have it mapped keep thinking the database is being updated by nscd, when in fact nscd has created a new (anonymous) one (for non-persistent databases it uses an unlinked file as backend). The original proposal for the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID change claimed (https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/25/233): : The NPTL library uses the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID flag on clone() syscalls : on behalf of pthread_create() library calls. This feature is used to : request that the kernel clear the thread-id in user space (at an address : provided in the syscall) when the thread disassociates itself from the : address space, which is done in mm_release(). : : Unfortunately, when a multi-threaded process incurs a core dump (such as : from a SIGSEGV), the core-dumping thread sends SIGKILL signals to all of : the other threads, which then proceed to clear their user-space tids : before synchronizing in exit_mm() with the start of core dumping. This : misrepresents the state of process's address space at the time of the : SIGSEGV and makes it more difficult for someone to debug NPTL and glibc : problems (misleading him/her to conclude that the threads had gone away : before the fault). : : The fix below is to simply avoid the CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID action if a : core dump has been initiated. The resulting patch from Roland (https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/26/269) seems to have a larger scope than the original patch asked for. It seems that limitting the scope of the check to core dumping should work for SIGSEGV issue describe above.

__printk_nmi_flush() can be called from nmi_panic(), therefore it has to test whether it's executed in NMI context and thus must route the messages through deferred printk() or via direct printk(). This is to avoid potential deadlocks, as described in commit cf9b1106 ("printk/nmi: flush NMI messages on the system panic"). However there remain two places where __printk_nmi_flush() does unconditional direct printk() calls: - pr_err("printk_nmi_flush: internal error ...") - pr_cont("\n") Factor out print_nmi_seq_line() parts into a new printk_nmi_flush_line() function, which takes care of in_nmi(), and use it in __printk_nmi_flush() for printing and error-reporting.

Firmware Assisted Dump (FA_DUMP) on ppc64 reserves substantial amounts of memory when booting a secondary kernel. Srikar Dronamraju reported that multiple nodes may have no memory managed by the buddy allocator but still return true for populated_zone(). Commit 1d82de61 ("mm, vmscan: make kswapd reclaim in terms of nodes") was reported to cause kswapd to spin at 100% CPU usage when fadump was enabled. The old code happened to deal with the situation of a populated node with zero free pages by co-incidence but the current code tries to reclaim populated zones without realising that is impossible. We cannot just convert populated_zone() as many existing users really need to check for present_pages. This patch introduces a managed_zone() helper and uses it in the few cases where it is critical that the check is made for managed pages -- zonelist construction and page reclaim.

I tried changing the Makefile to use "merge_config.sh -n $(fragment-list)" but couldn't get that to work properly. This is yet another approach, based on the observation that we do want to see a warning for conflicting 'choice' options, and that we can simply make them non-conflicting by listing all other options as disabled. This is a trivial patch that we can apply independent of plans for other changes.

There have been several reports about pre-mature OOM killer invocation in 4.7 kernel when order-2 allocation request (for the kernel stack) invoked OOM killer even during basic workloads (light IO or even kernel compile on some filesystems). In all reported cases the memory is fragmented and there are no order-2+ pages available. There is usually a large amount of slab memory (usually dentries/inodes) and further debugging has shown that there are way too many unmovable blocks which are skipped during the compaction. Multiple reporters have confirmed that the current linux-next which includes [1] and [2] helped and OOMs are not reproducible anymore. A simpler fix for the late rc and stable is to simply ignore the compaction feedback and retry as long as there is a reclaim progress and we are not getting OOM for order-0 pages. We already do that for CONFING_COMPACTION=n so let's reuse the same code when compaction is enabled as well.

We used to delay switching to the new credentials until after we had mapped the executable (and possible elf interpreter). That was kind of odd to begin with, since the new executable will actually then _run_ with the new creds, but whatever. The bigger problem was that we also want to make sure that we turn off prof events and tracing before we start mapping the new executable state. So while this is a cleanup, it's also a fix for a possible information leak.

Pull seccomp fix from Kees Cook: "Fix fatal signal delivery after ptrace reordering" * tag 'seccomp-v4.8-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux: seccomp: Fix tracer exit notifications during fatal signals
-
Kees Cook authored
This fixes a ptrace vs fatal pending signals bug as manifested in seccomp now that seccomp was reordered to happen after ptrace. The short version is that seccomp should not attempt to call do_exit() while fatal signals are pending under a tracer. The existing code was trying to be as defensively paranoid as possible, but it now ends up confusing ptrace. Instead, the syscall can just be skipped (which solves the original concern that the do_exit() was addressing) and normal signal handling, tracer notification, and process death can happen. Paraphrasing from the original bug report: If a tracee task is in a PTRACE_EVENT_SECCOMP trap, or has been resumed after such a trap but not yet been scheduled, and another task in the thread-group calls exit_group(), then the tracee task exits without the ptracer receiving a PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT notification. Test case here: https://gist.github.com/khuey/3c43ac247c72cef8c956ca73281c9be7 The bug happens because when __seccomp_filter() detects fatal_signal_pending(), it calls do_exit() without dequeuing the fatal signal. When do_exit() sends the PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT notification and that task is descheduled, __schedule() notices that there is a fatal signal pending and changes its state from TASK_TRACED to TASK_RUNNING. That prevents the ptracer's waitpid() from returning the ptrace event. A more detailed analysis is here: https://github.com/mozilla/rr/issues/1762#issuecomment-237396255.

There are three usercopy warnings which are currently being silenced for gcc 4.6 and newer: 1) "copy_from_user() buffer size is too small" compile warning/error This is a static warning which happens when object size and copy size are both const, and copy size > object size. I didn't see any false positives for this one. So the function warning attribute seems to be working fine here. Note this scenario is always a bug and so I think it should be changed to *always* be an error, regardless of CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS. 2) "copy_from_user() buffer size is not provably correct" compile warning This is another static warning which happens when I enable __compiletime_object_size() for new compilers (and CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS). It happens when object size is const, but copy size is *not*. In this case there's no way to compare the two at build time, so it gives the warning. (Note the warning is a byproduct of the fact that gcc has no way of knowing whether the overflow function will be called, so the call isn't dead code and the warning attribute is activated.) So this warning seems to only indicate "this is an unusual pattern, maybe you should check it out" rather than "this is a bug". I get 102(!) of these warnings with allyesconfig and the __compiletime_object_size() gcc check removed. I don't know if there are any real bugs hiding in there, but from looking at a small sample, I didn't see any. According to Kees, it does sometimes find real bugs. But the false positive rate seems high. 3) "Buffer overflow detected" runtime warning This is a runtime warning where object size is const, and copy size > object size. All three warnings (both static and runtime) were completely disabled for gcc 4.6 with the following commit: 2fb0815c ("gcc4: disable __compiletime_object_size for GCC 4.6+") That commit mistakenly assumed that the false positives were caused by a gcc bug in __compiletime_object_size(). But in fact, __compiletime_object_size() seems to be working fine. The false positives were instead triggered by #2 above. (Though I don't have an explanation for why the warnings supposedly only started showing up in gcc 4.6.) So remove warning #2 to get rid of all the false positives, and re-enable warnings #1 and #3 by reverting the above commit. Furthermore, since #1 is a real bug which is detected at compile time, upgrade it to always be an error. Having done all that, CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS is no longer needed.

Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo: "Two fixes for cgroup. - There still was a hole in enforcing cpuset rules, fixed by Li. - The recent switch to global percpu_rwseom for threadgroup locking revealed a couple issues in how percpu_rwsem is implemented and used by cgroup. Balbir found that the read locking section was too wide unnecessarily including operations which can often depend on IOs. With percpu_rwsem updates (coming through a different tree) and reduction of read locking section, all the reported locking latency issues, including the android one, are resolved. It looks like we can keep global percpu_rwsem locking for now. If there actually are cases which can't be resolved, we can go back to more complex per-signal_struct locking" * 'for-4.8-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: cgroup: reduce read locked section of cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem during fork cpuset: make sure new tasks conform to the current config of the cpuset

If a server returns itself as a location while migrating, the client may end up getting stuck attempting to migrate twice to the same server. Catch this by checking if the nfs_client found is the same as the existing client. For the other two callers to nfs4_set_client, the nfs_client will always be ERR_PTR(-EINVAL).

Christoph reports slab corruption when a deferred refcount update aborts during _defer_finish(). The cause of this was broken log item state tracking in xfs_defer_pending -- upon an abort, _defer_trans_abort() will call abort_intent on all intent items, including the ones that have already had a done item attached. This is incorrect because each intent item has 2 refcount: the first is released when the intent item is committed to the log; and the second is released when the _done_ item is committed to the log, or by the intent creator if there is no done item. In other words, once we log the done item, responsibility for releasing the intent item's second refcount is transferred to the done item and /must not/ be performed by anything else. The dfp_committed flag should have been tracking whether or not we had a done item so that _defer_trans_abort could decide if it needs to abort the intent item, but due to a thinko this was not the case. Rip it out and track the done item directly so that we do the right thing w.r.t. intent item freeing. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.
