Commit e688a604 ("net: introduce DST_NOPEER dst flag") introduced DST_NOPEER because because of crashes in ipv6_select_ident called from udp6_ufo_fragment. Since commit 916e4cf4 ("ipv6: reuse ip6_frag_id from ip6_ufo_append_data") we don't call ipv6_select_ident any more from ip6_ufo_append_data, thus this flag lost its purpose and can be removed.

The driver currently maps a page for DMA, divides the page into multiple frags and posts them to the HW. It un-maps the page after data is received on all the frags of the page. This scheme doesn't work when bounce buffers are used for DMA (swiotlb=force kernel param). This patch fixes this problem by calling dma_sync_single_for_cpu() for each frag (excepting the last one) so that the data is copied from the bounce buffers. The page is un-mapped only when DMA finishes on the last frag of the page. (Thanks Ben H. for suggesting the dma_sync API!) This patch also renames the "last_page_user" field of be_rx_page_info{} struct to "last_frag" to improve readability of the fixed code.

Jan Stancek reports manual page migration encountering allocation failures after some pages when there is still plenty of memory free, and bisected the problem down to commit 81c0a2bb ("mm: page_alloc: fair zone allocator policy"). The problem is that GFP_THISNODE obeys the zone fairness allocation batches on one hand, but doesn't reset them and wake kswapd on the other hand. After a few of those allocations, the batches are exhausted and the allocations fail. Fixing this means either having GFP_THISNODE wake up kswapd, or GFP_THISNODE not participating in zone fairness at all. The latter seems safer as an acute bugfix, we can clean up later.

When doing some numa tests on powerpc, I triggered an oops bug. I find it is caused by using page->_last_cpupid. It should be initialized as "-1 & LAST_CPUPID_MASK", but not "-1". Otherwise, in task_numa_fault(), we will miss the checking (last_cpupid == (-1 & LAST_CPUPID_MASK)). And finally cause an oops bug in task_numa_group(), since the online cpu is less than possible cpu.

This patch is a modification of the patch originally proposed by Xiaotian Feng <xtfeng@gmail.com>: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/5/413 This new version disables DMA channel interrupts and ensures that the tasklet wil not be scheduled again before calling tasklet_kill(). Unfortunately the updated patch was not released at that time due to planned rework of Tsi721 mport driver to use threaded interrupts (which has yet to happen). Recently the issue was reported again: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/19/762. Description from the original Xiaotian's patch: "Some drivers use tasklet_disable in device remove/release process, tasklet_disable will inc tasklet->count and return. If the tasklet is not handled yet under some softirq pressure, the tasklet will be placed on the tasklet_vec, never have a chance to be excuted. This might lead to a heavy loaded ksoftirqd, wakeup with pending_softirq, but tasklet is disabled. tasklet_kill should be used in this case." This patch is applicable to kernel versions starting from v3.5.

Current implementation of HFS+ driver has small issue with remount option. Namely, for example, you are unable to remount from RO mode into RW mode by means of command "mount -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus". Trying to execute sequence of commands results in an error message: mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount -o remount,ro /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount: you must specify the filesystem type mount -t hfsplus -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 /mnt/hfsplus mount: /mnt/hfsplus not mounted or bad option The reason of such issue is failure of mount syscall: mount("/dev/loop0", "/mnt/hfsplus", 0x2282a60, MS_MGC_VAL|MS_REMOUNT, NULL) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) Namely, hfsplus_parse_options_remount() method receives empty "input" argument and return false in such case. As a result, hfsplus_remount() returns -EINVAL error code. This patch fixes the issue by means of return true for the case of empty "input" argument in hfsplus_parse_options_remount() method.

Global quota files are accessed from different nodes. Thus we cannot cache offset of quota structure in the quota file after we drop our node reference count to it because after that moment quota structure may be freed and reallocated elsewhere by a different node resulting in corruption of quota file. Fix the problem by clearing dq_off when we are releasing dquot structure. We also remove the DB_READ_B handling because it is useless - DQ_ACTIVE_B is set iff DQ_READ_B is set.

Currently symbols that are absolute addresses are incorrectly displayed in /proc/kallsyms if the kernel is loaded with kASLR.

LZ4 as implemented in the kernel differs from the default method now used by the reference implementation of LZ4. Until the in-kernel method is updated to support the new default, passing the legacy flag (-l) to the compressor is necessary. Without this flag the kernel-generated, LZ4-compressed initramfs is junk. Kyungsik said: : It seems that lz4 supports legacy format with the same option as lz4c : does. Just looking at the first few bytes of lz4 compressed image, we can : see whether it is new format or not. : : It shows new format magic number without this patch.

This can be reproduced with default config since 3.11 kernels. A reproducer can be found in the kernel's selftest directory for networking by running ./psock_tpacket. The problem is that an order=2 compound page (allocated by alloc_one_pg_vec_page() is part of the munlocked VM_MIXEDMAP vma (mapped by packet_mmap()) and mistaken for a THP page and assumed to be order=9. The checks for THP in munlock came with commit ff6a6da6 ("mm: accelerate munlock() treatment of THP pages"), i.e. since 3.9, but did not trigger a bug. It just makes munlock_vma_pages_range() skip such compound pages until the next 512-pages-aligned page, when it encounters a head page. This is however not a problem for vma's where mlocking has no effect anyway, but it can distort the accounting. Since commit 7225522b ("mm: munlock: batch non-THP page isolation and munlock+putback using pagevec") this can trigger a VM_BUG_ON in PageTransHuge() check. This patch fixes the issue by adding VM_MIXEDMAP flag to VM_SPECIAL, a list of flags that make vma's non-mlockable and non-mergeable. The reasoning is that VM_MIXEDMAP vma's are similar to VM_PFNMAP, which is already on the VM_SPECIAL list, and both are intended for non-LRU pages where mlocking makes no sense anyway.

Sometimes the cleanup after memcg hierarchy testing gets stuck in mem_cgroup_reparent_charges(), unable to bring non-kmem usage down to 0. There may turn out to be several causes, but a major cause is this: the workitem to offline parent can get run before workitem to offline child; parent's mem_cgroup_reparent_charges() circles around waiting for the child's pages to be reparented to its lrus, but it's holding cgroup_mutex which prevents the child from reaching its mem_cgroup_reparent_charges(). Further testing showed that an ordered workqueue for cgroup_destroy_wq is not always good enough: percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm's call_rcu_sched stage on the way can mess up the order before reaching the workqueue. Instead, when offlining a memcg, call mem_cgroup_reparent_charges() on all its children (and grandchildren, in the correct order) to have their charges reparented first.

Commit 0eef6156 ("memcg: fix css reference leak and endless loop in mem_cgroup_iter") got the interaction with the commit a few before it d8ad3055 ("mm/memcg: iteration skip memcgs not yet fully initialized") slightly wrong, and we didn't notice at the time. It's elusive, and harder to get than the original, but for a couple of days before rc1, I several times saw a endless loop similar to that supposedly being fixed. This time it was a tighter loop in __mem_cgroup_iter_next(): because we can get here when our root has already been offlined, and the ordering of conditions was such that we then just cycled around forever.

While debug_dma_assert_idle() checks if a given *page* is actively undergoing dma the valid granularity of a dma mapping is a *cacheline*. Sander's testing shows that the warning message "DMA-API: exceeded 7 overlapping mappings of pfn..." is falsely triggering. The test is simply mapping multiple cachelines in a given page. Ultimately we want overlap tracking to be valid as it is a real api violation, so we need to track active mappings by cachelines. Update the active dma tracking to use the page-frame-relative cacheline of the mapping as the key, and update debug_dma_assert_idle() to check for all possible mapped cachelines for a given page. However, the need to track active mappings is only relevant when the dma-mapping is writable by the device. In fact it is fairly standard for read-only mappings to have hundreds or thousands of overlapping mappings at once. Limiting the overlap tracking to writable (!DMA_TO_DEVICE) eliminates this class of false-positive overlap reports. Note, the radix gang lookup is sub-optimal. It would be best if it stopped fetching entries once the search passed a page boundary. Nevertheless, this implementation does not perturb the original net_dma failing case. That is to say the extra overhead does not show up in terms of making the failing case pass due to a timing change.

Commit bf6bddf1 ("mm: introduce compaction and migration for ballooned pages") introduces page_count(page) into memory compaction which dereferences page->first_page if PageTail(page). This results in a very rare NULL pointer dereference on the aforementioned page_count(page). Indeed, anything that does compound_head(), including page_count() is susceptible to racing with prep_compound_page() and seeing a NULL or dangling page->first_page pointer. This patch uses Andrea's implementation of compound_trans_head() that deals with such a race and makes it the default compound_head() implementation. This includes a read memory barrier that ensures that if PageTail(head) is true that we return a head page that is neither NULL nor dangling. The patch then adds a store memory barrier to prep_compound_page() to ensure page->first_page is set. This is the safest way to ensure we see the head page that we are expecting, PageTail(page) is already in the unlikely() path and the memory barriers are unfortunately required. Hugetlbfs is the exception, we don't enforce a store memory barrier during init since no race is possible.

Macvlan currently inherits all of its features from the lower device. When lower device disables offload support, this causes macvlan to disable offload support as well. This causes performance regression when using macvlan/macvtap in bridge mode. It can be easily demonstrated by creating 2 namespaces using macvlan in bridge mode and running netperf between them: MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 10.0.0.1 () port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 20.00 1204.61 To restore the performance, we add software offload features to the list of "always_on" features for macvlan. This way when a namespace or a guest using macvtap initially sends a packet, this packet will not be segmented at macvlan level. It will only be segmented when macvlan sends the packet to the lower device.
