Using mpgroup to define multiple paths for a virtual disk causes multiple virtual-device-port ports to be created for that virtual device. Each virtual-device-port port then gets a vdisk created for it by the Linux sunvdc driver. As mpgroup is not supported by the Linux sunvdc driver it cannot handle multiple ports for a single vdisk, leading to a kernel panic at startup. This fix prevents more than one vdisk per virtual-device-port being created until full virtual disk multipathing (mpgroup) support is implemented.

If the decrementer wraps again and de-asserts the decrementer exception while hard-disabled, __check_irq_replay() has a test to notice the wrap when interrupts are re-enabled. The decrementer check must be done when clearing the PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS flag, not when the PACA_IRQ_DEC flag is tested. Previously this worked because the decrementer interrupt was always the first one checked after clearing the hard disable flag, but HMI check was moved ahead of that, which introduced this bug. This can cause a missed decrementer interrupt if we soft-disable interrupts then take an HMI which is recorded in irq_happened, then hard-disable interrupts for > 4s to wrap the decrementer.

When new directory 'DIR1' is created in a directory 'DIR0' with SGID bit set, DIR1 is expected to have SGID bit set (and owning group equal to the owning group of 'DIR0'). However when 'DIR0' also has some default ACLs that 'DIR1' inherits, setting these ACLs will result in SGID bit on 'DIR1' to get cleared if user is not member of the owning group. Fix the problem by moving posix_acl_update_mode() out of ocfs2_set_acl() into ocfs2_iop_set_acl(). That way the function will not be called when inheriting ACLs which is what we want as it prevents SGID bit clearing and the mode has been properly set by posix_acl_create() anyway. Also posix_acl_chmod() that is calling ocfs2_set_acl() takes care of updating mode itself.

Kernel panic when calling the IRQ-safe __get_user_pages_fast in NMI handler. The bug was introduced by commit 2947ba05 ("x86/mm/gup: Switch GUP to the generic get_user_page_fast() implementation"). The original x86 __get_user_page_fast used plain get_page() or page_ref_add(). However, the generic __get_user_page_fast uses page_cache_get_speculative(), which has VM_BUG_ON(in_interrupt()). There is no reason to prevent page_cache_get_speculative from using in interrupt context. According to the author, putting a BUG_ON there is just because the code is not verifying correctness of interrupt races. I did some tests in interrupt context. There is no issue found. Removing VM_BUG_ON(in_interrupt()) for page_cache_get_speculative().

In codepaths that use the begin/retry interface for reading mems_allowed_seq with irqs disabled, there exists a race condition that stalls the patch process after only modifying a subset of the static_branch call sites. This problem manifested itself as a deadlock in the slub allocator, inside get_any_partial. The loop reads mems_allowed_seq value (via read_mems_allowed_begin), performs the defrag operation, and then verifies the consistency of mem_allowed via the read_mems_allowed_retry and the cookie returned by xxx_begin. The issue here is that both begin and retry first check if cpusets are enabled via cpusets_enabled() static branch. This branch can be rewritted dynamically (via cpuset_inc) if a new cpuset is created. The x86 jump label code fully synchronizes across all CPUs for every entry it rewrites. If it rewrites only one of the callsites (specifically the one in read_mems_allowed_retry) and then waits for the smp_call_function(do_sync_core) to complete while a CPU is inside the begin/retry section with IRQs off and the mems_allowed value is changed, we can hang. This is because begin() will always return 0 (since it wasn't patched yet) while retry() will test the 0 against the actual value of the seq counter. The fix is to use two different static keys: one for begin (pre_enable_key) and one for retry (enable_key). In cpuset_inc(), we first bump the pre_enable key to ensure that cpuset_mems_allowed_begin() always return a valid seqcount if are enabling cpusets. Similarly, when disabling cpusets via cpuset_dec(), we first ensure that callers of cpuset_mems_allowed_retry() will start ignoring the seqcount value before we let cpuset_mems_allowed_begin() return 0.

Nadav Amit identified a theoritical race between page reclaim and mprotect due to TLB flushes being batched outside of the PTL being held. He described the race as follows: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- user accesses memory using RW PTE [PTE now cached in TLB] try_to_unmap_one() ==> ptep_get_and_clear() ==> set_tlb_ubc_flush_pending() mprotect(addr, PROT_READ) ==> change_pte_range() ==> [ PTE non-present - no flush ] user writes using cached RW PTE ... try_to_unmap_flush() The same type of race exists for reads when protecting for PROT_NONE and also exists for operations that can leave an old TLB entry behind such as munmap, mremap and madvise. For some operations like mprotect, it's not necessarily a data integrity issue but it is a correctness issue as there is a window where an mprotect that limits access still allows access. For munmap, it's potentially a data integrity issue although the race is massive as an munmap, mmap and return to userspace must all complete between the window when reclaim drops the PTL and flushes the TLB. However, it's theoritically possible so handle this issue by flushing the mm if reclaim is potentially currently batching TLB flushes. Other instances where a flush is required for a present pte should be ok as either the page lock is held preventing parallel reclaim or a page reference count is elevated preventing a parallel free leading to corruption. In the case of page_mkclean there isn't an obvious path that userspace could take advantage of without using the operations that are guarded by this patch. Other users such as gup as a race with reclaim looks just at PTEs. huge page variants should be ok as they don't race with reclaim. mincore only looks at PTEs. userfault also should be ok as if a parallel reclaim takes place, it will either fault the page back in or read some of the data before the flush occurs triggering a fault. Note that a variant of this patch was acked by Andy Lutomirski but this was for the x86 parts on top of his PCID work which didn't make the 4.13 merge window as expected. His ack is dropped from this version and there will be a follow-on patch on top of PCID that will include his ack.
