When vmscan.c calls page_referenced(), if an anon page was created before a process forked, rmap will search for it in both of the processes, even though one of them might have since broken COW. If the child process mlocks the vma where the COWed page belongs to, page_referenced() running on the page mapped by the parent would lead to *vm_flags getting VM_LOCKED set erroneously (leading to the references on the parent page being ignored and evicting the parent page too early). *mapcount would also be decremented by page_referenced_one even if the page wasn't found by page_check_address. This also lets pmdp_clear_flush_young_notify() go ahead on a pmd_trans_splitting() pmd. We hold the page_table_lock so __split_huge_page_map() must wait the pmdp_clear_flush_young_notify() to complete before it can modify the pmd. The pmd is also still mapped in userland so the young bit may materialize through a tlb miss before split_huge_page_map runs. This will provide a more accurate page_referenced() behavior during split_huge_page().

We've been getting reports of complete system lockups with rv3xx hw on AGP and PCIE when running gnome-shell or kwin with compositing. It appears the hw really doesn't like setting these registers while stuff is running, this moves the setting of the registers into the modeset since they aren't required to be changed anywhere else. fixes: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35183 Reported-and-tested-by: Álmos <aaalmosss@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Dave Airlie <airlied@redhat.com>

BZ29402 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29402 We can hit serious mis-synchronization in bio completion path of blkdev_issue_zeroout() leading to a panic. The problem is that when we are going to wait_for_completion() in blkdev_issue_zeroout() we check if the bb.done equals issued (number of submitted bios). If it does, we can skip the wait_for_completition() and just out of the function since there is nothing to wait for. However, there is a ordering problem because bio_batch_end_io() is calling atomic_inc(&bb->done) before complete(), hence it might seem to blkdev_issue_zeroout() that all bios has been completed and exit. At this point when bio_batch_end_io() is going to call complete(bb->wait), bb and wait does not longer exist since it was allocated on stack in blkdev_issue_zeroout() ==> panic! (thread 1) (thread 2) bio_batch_end_io() blkdev_issue_zeroout() if(bb) { ... if (bb->end_io) ... bb->end_io(bio, err); ... atomic_inc(&bb->done); ... ... while (issued != atomic_read(&bb.done)) ... (let issued == bb.done) ... (do the rest of the function) ... return ret; complete(bb->wait); ^^^^^^^^ panic We can fix this easily by simplifying bio_batch and completion counting. Also remove bio_end_io_t *end_io since it is not used.

As inval_cache_and_wait_for_operation() drop and reclaim the lock to invalidate the cache, some other thread may suspend the operation before reaching the for(;;) loop.

In the commit 08968041 (mtd: cfi_cmdset_0002: make sector erase command variable) introdused a field sector_erase_cmd. In the same commit initialisation of cfi->sector_erase_cmd made in cfi_chip_setup() (file drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_probe.c), so the CFI chip has no problem: ... cfi->cfi_mode = CFI_MODE_CFI; cfi->sector_erase_cmd = CMD(0x30); ... But for the JEDEC chips this initialisation is not carried out, so the JEDEC chips have sector_erase_cmd == 0. This patch adds the missing initialisation.

This reverts commit 951f3512 drm/i915: Do not handle backlight combination mode specially since this commit introduced other regressions due to untouched LBPC register, e.g. the backlight dimmed after resume. In addition to the revert, this patch includes a fix for the original issue (weird backlight levels) by removing the wrong bit shift for computing the current backlight level. Also, including typo fixes (lpbc -> lbpc).

Without this patch, inodes are not promptly freed on last close of an unlinked file by an nfs client: client$ mount -tnfs4 server:/export/ /mnt/ client$ tail -f /mnt/FOO ... server$ df -i /export server$ rm /export/FOO (^C the tail -f) server$ df -i /export server$ echo 2 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches server$ df -i /export the df's will show that the inode is not freed on the filesystem until the last step, when it could have been freed after killing the client's tail -f. On-disk data won't be deallocated either, leading to possible spurious ENOSPC. This occurs because when the client does the close, it arrives in a compound with a putfh and a close, processed like: - putfh: look up the filehandle. The only alias found for the inode will be DCACHE_UNHASHED alias referenced by the filp this, so it creates a new DCACHE_DISCONECTED dentry and returns that instead. - close: closes the existing filp, which is destroyed immediately by dput() since it's DCACHE_UNHASHED. - end of the compound: release the reference to the current filehandle, and dput() the new DCACHE_DISCONECTED dentry, which gets put on the unused list instead of being destroyed immediately. Nick Piggin suggested fixing this by allowing d_obtain_alias to return the unhashed dentry that is referenced by the filp, instead of making it create a new dentry. Leave __d_find_alias() alone to avoid changing behavior of other callers. Also nfsd doesn't need all the checks of __d_find_alias(); any dentry, hashed or unhashed, disconnected or not, should work.

In the fallocate path the kernel doesn't check for the immutable/append flag. It's possible to have a race condition in this scenario: an application open a file in read/write and it does something, meanwhile root set the immutable flag on the file, the application at that point can call fallocate with success. In addition, we don't allow to do any unreserve operation on an append only file but only the reserve one.

Addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29252 Addresses https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30462 In commit d80bc0fd ("ipv6: Always clone offlink routes.") we forced the kernel to always clone offlink routes. The reason we do that is to make sure we never bind an inetpeer to a prefixed route. The logic turned on here has existed in the tree for many years, but was always off due to a protecting CPP define. So perhaps it's no surprise that there is a logic bug here. The problem is that we canot clone a route that is already a host route (ie. has DST_HOST set). Because if we do, an identical entry already exists in the routing tree and therefore the ip6_rt_ins() call is going to fail. This sets off a series of failures and high cpu usage, because when ip6_rt_ins() fails we loop retrying this operation a few times in order to handle a race between two threads trying to clone and insert the same host route at the same time. Fix this by simply using the route as-is when DST_HOST is set. Reported-by: slash@ac.auone-net.jp Reported-by: Ernst Sjöstrand <ernstp@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
