Tetsuo Handa has pointed out that __GFP_NOFAIL allocations might fail after OOM killer is disabled if the allocation is performed by a kernel thread. This behavior was introduced from the very beginning by 7f33d49a ("mm, PM/Freezer: Disable OOM killer when tasks are frozen"). This means that the basic contract for the allocation request is broken and the context requesting such an allocation might blow up unexpectedly. There are basically two ways forward. 1) move oom_killer_disable after kernel threads are frozen. This has a risk that the OOM victim wouldn't be able to finish because it would depend on an already frozen kernel thread. This would be really tricky to debug. 2) do not fail GFP_NOFAIL allocation no matter what and risk a potential Freezable kernel threads will loop and fail the suspend. Incidental allocations after kernel threads are frozen will at least dump a warning - if we are lucky and the serial console is still active of course... This patch implements the later option because it is safer. We would see warning rather than allocation failures for the kernel threads which would blow up otherwise and have a higher chances to identify __GFP_NOFAIL users from deeper pm code.

Commit df9e26d0 ("rtc: s3c: add support for RTC of Exynos3250 SoC") added an "rtc_src" DT property to specify the clock used as a source to the S3C real-time clock. Not all SoCs needs this so commit eaf3a659 ("drivers/rtc/rtc-s3c.c: fix initialization failure without rtc source clock") changed to check the struct s3c_rtc_data .needs_src_clk to conditionally grab the clock. But that commit didn't update the data for each IP version so the RTC broke on the boards that needs a source clock. This is the case of at least Exynos5250 and Exynos5440 which uses the s3c6410 RTC IP block. This commit fixes the S3C rtc on the Exynos5250 Snow and Exynos5420 Peach Pit and Pi Chromebooks.

It turns out that making this feature ro_compat isn't quite enough to prevent accidental corruption on mount from older kernels. Ocfs2 (like other file systems) will process orphaned inodes even when the user mounts in 'ro' mode. So for the case of a filesystem not knowing the append_dio feature, mounting the filesystem could result in orphaned-for-dio files being deleted, which we clearly don't want. So instead, turn this into an incompat flag. Btw, this is kind of my fault - initially I asked that we add a flag to cover the feature and even suggested that we use an ro flag. It wasn't until I was looking through our commits for v4.0-rc1 that I realized we actually want this to be incompat.

Dave Chinner reported that commit 4d942466 ("mm: convert p[te|md]_mknonnuma and remaining page table manipulations") slowed down his xfsrepair test enormously. In particular, it was using more system time due to extra TLB flushing. The ultimate reason turns out to be how the change to use the regular page table accessor functions broke the NUMA grouping logic. The old special mknuma/mknonnuma code accessed the page table present bit and the magic NUMA bit directly, while the new code just changes the page protections using PROT_NONE and the regular vma protections. That sounds equivalent, and from a fault standpoint it really is, but a subtle side effect is that the *other* protection bits of the page table entries also change. And the code to decide how to group the NUMA entries together used the writable bit to decide whether a particular page was likely to be shared read-only or not. And with the change to make the NUMA handling use the regular permission setting functions, that writable bit was basically always cleared for private mappings due to COW. So even if the page actually ends up being written to in the end, the NUMA balancing would act as if it was always shared RO. This code is a heuristic anyway, so the fix - at least for now - is to instead check whether the page is dirty rather than writable. The bit doesn't change with protection changes. NOTE! This also adds a FIXME comment to revisit this issue, Not only should we probably re-visit the whole "is this a shared read-only page" heuristic (we might want to take the vma permissions into account and base this more on those than the per-page ones, and also look at whether the particular access that triggers it is a write or not), but the whole COW issue shows that we should think about the NUMA fault handling some more. For example, maybe we should do the early-COW thing that a regular fault does. Or maybe we should accept that while using the same bits as PROTNONE was a good thing (and got rid of the specual NUMA bit), we might still want to just preseve the other protection bits across NUMA faulting. Those are bigger questions, left for later. This just fixes up the heuristic so that it at least approximates working again. More analysis and work needed.

This reverts commit e4df3a0b ("i2c: core: Dispose OF IRQ mapping at client removal time") Calling irq_dispose_mapping() will destroy the mapping and disassociate the IRQ from the IRQ chip to which it belongs. Keeping it is OK, because existent mappings are reused properly. Also, this commit breaks drivers using devm* for IRQ management on OF-based systems because devm* cleanup happens in device code, after bus's remove() method returns.

Pratyush Anand first reported this issue to me and supplied a patch. When I tested this on my x86 test box, it caused thousands of backtraces and warnings to appear in dmesg, which also caused a denial of service (a warning for every function that was listed). I applied Pratyush's patch but it did not fix the issue for me. I looked into it and found a slight problem with trampoline accounting. I fixed it and sent Pratyush a patch, but he said that it did not fix the issue for him. I later learned tha Pratyush was using an ARM64 server, and when I tested on my ARM board, I was able to reproduce the same issue as Pratyush. After applying his patch, it fixed the problem. The above test uncovered two different bugs, one in x86 and one in ARM and ARM64. As this looked like it would affect PowerPC, I tested it on my PPC64 box. It too broke, but neither the patch that fixed ARM or x86 fixed this box (the changes were all in generic code!). The above test, uncovered two more bugs that affected PowerPC. Again, the changes were only done to generic code. It's the way the arch code expected things to be done that was different between the archs. Some where more sensitive than others.

Pull workqueue fix from Tejun Heo: "One fix patch for a subtle livelock condition which can happen on PREEMPT_NONE kernels involving two racing cancel_work calls. Whoever comes in the second has to wait for the previous one to finish. This was implemented by making the later one block for the same condition that the former would be (work item completion) and then loop and retest; unfortunately, depending on the wake up order, the later one could lock out the former one to finish by busy looping on the cpu. This is fixed by implementing explicit wait mechanism. Work item might not belong anywhere at this point and there's remote possibility of thundering herd problem. I originally tried to use bit_waitqueue but it didn't work for static work items on modules. It's currently using single wait queue with filtering wake up function and exclusive wakeup. If this ever becomes a problem, which is not very likely, we can try to figure out a way to piggy back on bit_waitqueue" * 'for-4.0-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: workqueue: fix hang involving racing cancel[_delayed]_work_sync()'s for PREEMPT_NONE

Jon Paul Maloy authored
In commit c637c103 ("tipc: resolve race problem at unicast message reception") we introduced a new mechanism for delivering buffers upwards from link to socket layer. That code contains a bug in how we handle the new link input queue during failover. When a link is reset, some of its users may be blocked because of congestion, and in order to resolve this, we add any pending wakeup pseudo messages to the link's input queue, and deliver them to the socket. This misses the case where the other, remaining link also may have congested users. Currently, the owner node's reference to the remaining link's input queue is unconditionally overwritten by the reset link's input queue. This has the effect that wakeup events from the remaining link may be unduely delayed (but not lost) for a potentially long period. We fix this by adding the pending events from the reset link to the input queue that is currently referenced by the node, whichever one it is. This commit should be applied to both net and net-next.

When an interface is deleted from a net namespace the ifindex in the corresponding entries in PF_PACKET sockets' mclists becomes stale. This can create inconsistencies if later an interface with the same ifindex is moved from a different namespace (not that unlikely since ifindexes are per-namespace). In particular we saw problems with dev->promiscuity, resulting in "promiscuity touches roof, set promiscuity failed. promiscuity feature of device might be broken" warnings and EOVERFLOW failures of setsockopt(PACKET_ADD_MEMBERSHIP). This patch deletes the mclist entries for interfaces that are deleted. Since this now causes setsockopt(PACKET_DROP_MEMBERSHIP) to fail with EADDRNOTAVAIL if called after the interface is deleted, also make packet_mc_drop not fail.

Some archs (specifically PowerPC), are sensitive with the ordering of the enabling of the calls to function tracing and setting of the function to use to be traced. That is, update_ftrace_function() sets what function the ftrace_caller trampoline should call. Some archs require this to be set before calling ftrace_run_update_code(). Another bug was discovered, that ftrace_startup_sysctl() called ftrace_run_update_code() directly. If the function the ftrace_caller trampoline changes, then it will not be updated. Instead a call to ftrace_startup_enable() should be called because it tests to see if the callback changed since the code was disabled, and will tell the arch to update appropriately. Most archs do not need this notification, but PowerPC does. The problem could be seen by the following commands: # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace The trace will show that function tracing was not active.

When ftrace is enabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the FTRACE_START_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code(). Similarly, when ftrace is disabled globally through the proc interface, we must check if ftrace_graph_active is set. If it is set, then we should also pass the FTRACE_STOP_FUNC_RET command to ftrace_run_update_code(). Consider the following situation. # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled After this ftrace_enabled = 0. # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer Since ftrace_enabled = 0, ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is never called. # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled Now ftrace_enabled will be set to true, but still ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() will not be called, which is not desired. Further if we execute the following after this: # echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer Now since ftrace_enabled is set it will call ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller(), which causes a kernel warning on the ARM platform. On the ARM platform, when ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() is called, it checks whether the old instruction is a nop or not. If it's not a nop, then it returns an error. If it is a nop then it replaces instruction at that address with a branch to ftrace_graph_caller. ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() behaves just the opposite. Therefore, if generic ftrace code ever calls either ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() or ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() consecutively two times in a row, then it will return an error, which will cause the generic ftrace code to raise a warning. Note, x86 does not have an issue with this because the architecture specific code for ftrace_enable_ftrace_graph_caller() and ftrace_disable_ftrace_graph_caller() does not check the previous state, and calling either of these functions twice in a row has no ill effect.

When /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled is set to zero, all function tracing is disabled. But the records that represent the functions still hold information about the ftrace_ops that are hooked to them. ftrace_ops may request "REGS" (have a full set of pt_regs passed to the callback), or "TRAMP" (the ops has its own trampoline to use). When the record is updated to represent the state of the ops hooked to it, it sets "REGS_EN" and/or "TRAMP_EN" to state that the callback points to the correct trampoline (REGS has its own trampoline). When ftrace_enabled is set to zero, all ftrace locations are a nop, so they do not point to any trampoline. But the _EN flags are still set. This can cause the accounting to go wrong when ftrace_enabled is cleared and an ops that has a trampoline is registered or unregistered. For example, the following will cause ftrace to crash: # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer As function_graph uses a trampoline, when ftrace_enabled is set to zero the updates to the record are not done. When enabling function_graph again, the record will still have the TRAMP_EN flag set, and it will look for an op that has a trampoline other than the function_graph ops, and fail to find one.

The Kvaser firmware can only read and write messages that are not crossing the USB endpoint's wMaxPacketSize boundary. While receiving commands from the CAN device, if the next command in the same URB buffer crossed that max packet size boundary, the firmware puts a zero-length placeholder command in its place then moves the real command to the next boundary mark. The driver did not recognize such behavior, leading to missing a good number of rx events during a heavy rx load session. Moreover, a tx URB context only gets freed upon receiving its respective tx ACK event. Over time, the free tx URB contexts pool gets depleted due to the missing ACK events. Consequently, the netif transmission queue gets __permanently__ stopped; no frames could be sent again except after restarting the CAN newtwork interface. Signed-off-by: Ahmed S.

Upon a URB submission failure, the driver calls usb_free_urb() but then manually frees the URB buffer by itself. Meanwhile usb_free_urb() has alredy freed out that transfer buffer since we're the only code path holding a reference to this URB. Remove two of such invalid manual free(). Signed-off-by: Ahmed S.

When accessing CAN network interfaces with AF_PACKET sockets e.g. by dhclient this can lead to a skb_under_panic due to missing skb initialisations. Add the missing initialisations at the CAN skbuff creation times on driver level (rx path) and in the network layer (tx path).

When reading from the error queue, msg_name and msg_control are only populated for some errors. A new exception for empty timestamp skbs added a false positive on icmp errors without payload. `traceroute -M udpconn` only displayed gateways that return payload with the icmp error: the embedded network headers are pulled before sock_queue_err_skb, leaving an skb with skb->len == 0 otherwise. Fix this regression by refining when msg_name and msg_control branches are taken. The solutions for the two fields are independent. msg_name only makes sense for errors that configure serr->port and serr->addr_offset. Test the first instead of skb->len. This also fixes another issue. saddr could hold the wrong data, as serr->addr_offset is not initialized in some code paths, pointing to the start of the network header. It is only valid when serr->port is set (non-zero). msg_control support differs between IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 only honors requests for ICMP and timestamps with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG. The skb->len test can simply be removed, because skb->dev is also tested and never true for empty skbs. IPv6 honors requests for all errors aside from local errors and timestamps on empty skbs. In both cases, make the policy more explicit by moving this logic to a new function that decides whether to process msg_control and that optionally prepares the necessary fields in skb->cb[]. After this change, the IPv4 and IPv6 paths are more similar. The last case is rxrpc. Here, simply refine to only match timestamps.

On my test environment the throughput of a file transfer drops from 4.4MBps to 116KBps due the number of repeated warning messages. This patch removes the warning messages as DMA works correctly with addresses using 0xC0000000 bits.
