Some processes (CRIU) are moving the vDSO area using the mremap system call. As a consequence the kernel reference to the vDSO base address is no more valid and the signal return frame built once the vDSO has been moved is not pointing to the new sigreturn address. This patch handles vDSO remapping and unmapping. Signed-off-by:

Some architectures would like to be triggered when a memory area is moved through the mremap system call. This patch introduces a new arch_remap() mm hook which is placed in the path of mremap, and is called before the old area is unmapped (and the arch_unmap() hook is called). Signed-off-by:

CRIU is recreating the process memory layout by remapping the checkpointee memory area on top of the current process (criu). This includes remapping the vDSO to the place it has at checkpoint time. However some architectures like powerpc are keeping a reference to the vDSO base address to build the signal return stack frame by calling the vDSO sigreturn service. So once the vDSO has been moved, this reference is no more valid and the signal frame built later are not usable. This patch serie is introducing a new mm hook framework, and a new arch_remap hook which is called when mremap is done and the mm lock still hold. The next patch is adding the vDSO remap and unmap tracking to the powerpc architecture. This patch (of 3): This patch introduces a new set of header file to manage mm hooks: - per architecture empty header file (arch/x/include/asm/mm-arch-hooks.h) - a generic header (include/linux/mm-arch-hooks.h) The architecture which need to overwrite a hook as to redefine it in its header file, while architecture which doesn't need have nothing to do. The default hooks are defined in the generic header and are used in the case the architecture is not defining it. In a next step, mm hooks defined in include/asm-generic/mm_hooks.h should be moved here. Signed-off-by:

On mlock(2) we trigger COW on private writable VMA to avoid faults in future. mm/gup.c: 840 long populate_vma_page_range(struct vm_area_struct *vma, 841 unsigned long start, unsigned long end, int *nonblocking) 842 { ... 855 * We want to touch writable mappings with a write fault in order 856 * to break COW, except for shared mappings because these don't COW 857 * and we would not want to dirty them for nothing. 858 */ 859 if ((vma->vm_flags & (VM_WRITE | VM_SHARED)) == VM_WRITE) 860 gup_flags |= FOLL_WRITE; But we miss this case when we make VM_LOCKED VMA writeable via mprotect(2).

khugepaged_do_scan() checks in every iteration whether freezing(current) is true, and in such case breaks out of the loop, which causes try_to_freeze() to be called immediately afterwards in khugepaged_wait_work(). If nothing else, this causes unnecessary freezing(current) test, and also makes the way khugepaged enters freezer a bit less obvious than necessary. Let's just try to freeze directly, instead of splitting it into two (directly adjacent) phases. Signed-off-by:

This patch moves the initialization of the size_index table slightly earlier so that the first few kmem_cache_node's can be safely allocated when KMALLOC_MIN_SIZE is large. There are currently two ways to generate indices into kmalloc_caches (via kmalloc_index() and via the size_index table in slab_common.c) and on some arches (possibly only MIPS) they potentially disagree with each other until create_kmalloc_caches() has been called. It seems that the intention is that the size_index table is a fast equivalent to kmalloc_index() and that create_kmalloc_caches() patches the table to return the correct value for the cases where kmalloc_index()'s if-statements apply. The failing sequence was: * kmalloc_caches contains NULL elements * kmem_cache_init initialises the element that 'struct kmem_cache_node' will be allocated to. For 32-bit Mips, this is a 56-byte struct and kmalloc_index returns KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW (7). * init_list is called which calls kmalloc_node to allocate a 'struct kmem_cache_node'. * kmalloc_slab selects the kmem_caches element using size_index[size_index_elem(size)]. For MIPS, size is 56, and the expression returns 6. * This element of kmalloc_caches is NULL and allocation fails. * If it had not already failed, it would have called create_kmalloc_caches() at this point which would have changed size_index[size_index_elem(size)] to 7. I don't believe the bug to be LLVM specific but GCC doesn't normally encounter the problem. I haven't been able to identify exactly what GCC is doing better (probably inlining) but it seems that GCC is managing to optimize to the point that it eliminates the problematic allocations. This theory is supported by the fact that GCC can be made to fail in the same way by changing inline, __inline, __inline__, and __always_inline in include/linux/compiler-gcc.h such that they don't actually inline things.

The slub_debug=PU,kmalloc-xx cannot work because in the create_kmalloc_caches() the s->name is created after the create_kmalloc_cache() is called. The name is NULL in the create_kmalloc_cache() so the kmem_cache_flags() would not set the slub_debug flags to the s->flags. The fix here set up a kmalloc_names string array for the initialization purpose and delete the dynamic name creation of kmalloc_caches.

Allowing watchdog threads to be parked means that we now have the opportunity of actually seeing persistent parked threads in the output of /proc/<pid>/stat and /proc/<pid>/status. The existing code reported such threads as "Running", which is kind-of true if you think of the case where we park them as part of taking cpus offline. But if we allow parking them indefinitely, "Running" is pretty misleading, so we report them as "Sleeping" instead. We could simply report them with a new string, "Parked", but it feels like it's a bit risky for userspace to see unexpected new values; the output is already documented in Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt, and it seems like a mistake to change that lightly. The scheduler does report parked tasks with a "P" in debugging output from sched_show_task() or dump_cpu_task(), but that's a different API. Similarly, the trace_ctxwake_* routines report a "P" for parked tasks, but again, different API. This change seemed slightly cleaner than updating the task_state_array to have additional rows. TASK_DEAD should be subsumed by the exit_state bits; TASK_WAKEKILL is just a modifier; and TASK_WAKING can very reasonably be reported as "Running" (as it is now). Only TASK_PARKED shows up with unreasonable output here. Signed-off-by:

Change the default behavior of watchdog so it only runs on the housekeeping cores when nohz_full is enabled at build and boot time. Allow modifying the set of cores the watchdog is currently running on with a new kernel.watchdog_cpumask sysctl. In the current system, the watchdog subsystem runs a periodic timer that schedules the watchdog kthread to run. However, nohz_full cores are designed to allow userspace application code running on those cores to have 100% access to the CPU. So the watchdog system prevents the nohz_full application code from being able to run the way it wants to, thus the motivation to suppress the watchdog on nohz_full cores, which this patchset provides by default. However, if we disable the watchdog globally, then the housekeeping cores can't benefit from the watchdog functionality. So we allow disabling it only on some cores. See Documentation/lockup-watchdogs.txt for more information. [jhubbard@nvidia.com: fix a watchdog crash in some configurations] Signed-off-by:

This patch series allows the watchdog to run by default only on the housekeeping cores when nohz_full is in effect; this seems to be a good compromise short of turning it off completely (since the nohz_full cores can't tolerate a watchdog). To provide customizability, we add /proc/sys/kernel/watchdog_cpumask so that the set of cores running the watchdog can be tuned to different values after bootup. To implement this customizability, we add a new smpboot_update_cpumask_percpu_thread() API to the smpboot_thread subsystem that lets us park or unpark "unwanted" threads. And now that threads can be parked for long periods of time, we tweak the /proc/<pid>/stat and /proc/<pid>/status code so parked threads aren't reported as running, which is otherwise confusing. This patch (of 3): This change allows some cores to be excluded from running the smp_hotplug_thread tasks. The following commit to update kernel/watchdog.c to use this functionality is the motivating example, and more information on the motivation is provided there. A new smp_hotplug_thread field is introduced, "cpumask", which is cpumask field managed by the smpboot subsystem that indicates whether or not the given smp_hotplug_thread should run on that core; the cpumask is checked when deciding whether to unpark the thread. To limit the cpumask to less than cpu_possible, you must call smpboot_update_cpumask_percpu_thread() after registering. Signed-off-by:

ocfs2_rotate_tree_left() calls __ocfs2_rotate_tree_left() for left rotation while non-rightmost path containing an empty extent in the leaf block. __ocfs2_rotate_tree_left() returns -EAGAIN if right subtree having an empty extent and pass the empty_extent_path to caller. The caller ocfs2_rotate_tree_left() will restart rotation from the returned path. It will trigger the BUG_ON(!ocfs2_is_empty_extent) when the et on disk is as follows: eb0 is the leaf block of path(say path_a) passed to ocfs2_rotate_tree_left, which has an empty rec[0]. eb1 is the leaf block of path(say path_b) that just right to path_a, which has no empty record. eb2 is the leaf block of path(say path_c) that just right to path_b, which has an empty rec[0]. And path_c is also the rightmost path. Now we want to remove the empty rec[0] in eb0: ocfs2_rotate_tree_left: -> call __ocfs2_rotate_tree_left with path_a as its input *path* -> call ocfs2_rotate_subtree_left with path_a as its input *left_path* and path_b as its input *right_path*. it will move rec[0] in eb1 to eb0, and rec[0] in eb0 is not empty now. -> continue to call ocfs2_rotate_subtree_left with path_b as its input *left_path* and path_c as its input *right_path*, and return -EAGAIN because eb2 has an empty rec[0] -> call __ocfs2_rotate_tree_left with path_c as it input, rotate all records in eb2 to left and return 0. -> call __ocfs2_rotate_tree_left with path_a as its input, and triggers the BUG_ON(!ocfs2_is_empty_extent) as the rec[0] in eb0 is not empty. So the BUG_ON() should be removed and return 0 if rec[0] is no longer an empty extent. Signed-off-by: -
