It turns out that 'access()' (and 'faccessat()') can cause a lot of RCU work because it installs a temporary credential that gets allocated and freed for each system call. The allocation and freeing overhead is mostly benign, but because credentials can be accessed under the RCU read lock, the freeing involves a RCU grace period. Which is not a huge deal normally, but if you have a lot of access() calls, this causes a fair amount of seconday damage: instead of having a nice alloc/free patterns that hits in hot per-CPU slab caches, you have all those delayed free's, and on big machines with hundreds of cores, the RCU overhead can end up being enormous. But it turns out that all of this is entirely unnecessary. Exactly because access() only installs the credential as the thread-local subjective credential, the temporary cred pointer doesn't actually need to be RCU free'd at all. Once we're done using it, we can just free it synchronously and avoid all the RCU overhead. So add a 'non_rcu' flag to 'struct cred', which can be set by users that know they only use it in non-RCU context (there are other potential users for this). We can make it a union with the rcu freeing list head that we need for the RCU case, so this doesn't need any extra storage. Note that this also makes 'get_current_cred()' clear the new non_rcu flag, in case we have filesystems that take a long-term reference to the cred and then expect the RCU delayed freeing afterwards. It's not entirely clear that this is required, but it makes for clear semantics: the subjective cred remains non-RCU as long as you only access it synchronously using the thread-local accessors, but you _can_ use it as a generic cred if you want to. It is possible that we should just remove the whole RCU markings for ->cred entirely. Only ->real_cred is really supposed to be accessed through RCU, and the long-term cred copies that nfs uses might want to explicitly re-enable RCU freeing if required, rather than have get_current_cred() do it implicitly. But this is a "minimal semantic changes" change for the immediate problem. Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Acked-by: Paul E.

When the blk-mq debugfs file creation logic was "cleaned up" it was cleaned up too much, causing the queue file to not be created in the correct location. Turns out the check for the directory being present is needed as if that has not happened yet, the files should not be created, and the function will be called later on in the initialization code so that the files can be created in the correct location.

Allwinner NAND controllers can make use of DMA to enhance the I/O throughput thanks to ECC pipelining. DMA handling with A23/A33 NAND IP is a bit different than with the older SoCs, hence the introduction of a new compatible to handle: * the differences between register offsets, * the burst length change from 4 to minimum 8, * manage SRAM accesses through MBUS with extra configuration.

The original implementation of vq_present() relied on aggressive inlining in order for the compiler to know that the code is correct, due to some const-casting issues. This was causing sparse and clang to complain, while GCC compiled cleanly. Commit 0c529ff7 addressed this problem, but since vq_present() is no longer a function, there is now no implicit casting of the returned value to the return type (bool). In set_sve_vls(), this uncast bit value is compared against a bool, and so may spuriously compare as unequal when both are nonzero. As a result, KVM may reject valid SVE vector length configurations as invalid, and vice versa. Fix it by forcing the returned value to a bool.

It is possible for an irq triggered by channel0 to be received later after clks are disabled once firmware loaded during sdma probe. If that happens then clearing them by writing to SDMA_H_INTR won't work and the kernel will hang processing infinite interrupts. Actually, don't need interrupt triggered on channel0 since it's pollling SDMA_H_STATSTOP to know channel0 done rather than interrupt in current code, just clear BD_INTR to disable channel0 interrupt to avoid the above case. This issue was brought by commit 1d069bfa ("dmaengine: imx-sdma: ack channel 0 IRQ in the interrupt handler") which didn't take care the above case.

If probe() fails anywhere beyond the point where sdma_get_firmware() is called, then a kernel oops may occur. Problematic sequence of events: 1. probe() calls sdma_get_firmware(), which schedules the firmware callback to run when firmware becomes available, using the sdma instance structure as the context 2. probe() encounters an error, which deallocates the sdma instance structure 3. firmware becomes available, firmware callback is called with deallocated sdma instance structure 4. use after free - kernel oops ! Solution: only attempt to load firmware when we're certain that probe() will succeed. This guarantees that the firmware callback's context will remain valid. Note that the remove() path is unaffected by this issue: the firmware loader will increment the driver module's use count, ensuring that the module cannot be unloaded while the firmware callback is pending or running.

In production we have noticed hard lockups on large machines running large jobs due to kswaps hoarding lru lock within isolate_lru_pages when sc->reclaim_idx is 0 which is a small zone. The lru was couple hundred GiBs and the condition (page_zonenum(page) > sc->reclaim_idx) in isolate_lru_pages() was basically skipping GiBs of pages while holding the LRU spinlock with interrupt disabled. On further inspection, it seems like there are two issues: (1) If kswapd on the return from balance_pgdat() could not sleep (i.e. node is still unbalanced), the classzone_idx is unintentionally set to 0 and the whole reclaim cycle of kswapd will try to reclaim only the lowest and smallest zone while traversing the whole memory. (2) Fundamentally isolate_lru_pages() is really bad when the allocation has woken kswapd for a smaller zone on a very large machine running very large jobs. It can hoard the LRU spinlock while skipping over 100s of GiBs of pages. This patch only fixes (1). (2) needs a more fundamental solution. To fix (1), in the kswapd context, if pgdat->kswapd_classzone_idx is invalid use the classzone_idx of the previous kswapd loop otherwise use the one the waker has requested.

When IOCB_CMD_POLL is used on a userfaultfd, aio_poll() disables IRQs and takes kioctx::ctx_lock, then userfaultfd_ctx::fd_wqh.lock. This may have to wait for userfaultfd_ctx::fd_wqh.lock to be released by userfaultfd_ctx_read(), which in turn can be waiting for userfaultfd_ctx::fault_pending_wqh.lock or userfaultfd_ctx::event_wqh.lock. But elsewhere the fault_pending_wqh and event_wqh locks are taken with IRQs enabled. Since the IRQ handler may take kioctx::ctx_lock, lockdep reports that a deadlock is possible. Fix it by always disabling IRQs when taking the fault_pending_wqh and event_wqh locks. Commit ae62c16e ("userfaultfd: disable irqs when taking the waitqueue lock") didn't fix this because it only accounted for the fd_wqh lock, not the other locks nested inside it.

Commit 0e56acae ("mm: initialize MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES at a time instead of doing larger sections") is causing a regression on some systems when the kernel is booted as Xen dom0. The system will just hang in early boot. Reason is an endless loop in get_page_from_freelist() in case the first zone looked at has no free memory. deferred_grow_zone() is always returning true due to the following code snipplet: /* If the zone is empty somebody else may have cleared out the zone */ if (!deferred_init_mem_pfn_range_in_zone(&i, zone, &spfn, &epfn, first_deferred_pfn)) { pgdat->first_deferred_pfn = ULONG_MAX; pgdat_resize_unlock(pgdat, &flags); return true; } This in turn results in the loop as get_page_from_freelist() is assuming forward progress can be made by doing some more struct page initialization.

Fix two issues: When called for PTRACE_TRACEME, ptrace_link() would obtain an RCU reference to the parent's objective credentials, then give that pointer to get_cred(). However, the object lifetime rules for things like struct cred do not permit unconditionally turning an RCU reference into a stable reference. PTRACE_TRACEME records the parent's credentials as if the parent was acting as the subject, but that's not the case. If a malicious unprivileged child uses PTRACE_TRACEME and the parent is privileged, and at a later point, the parent process becomes attacker-controlled (because it drops privileges and calls execve()), the attacker ends up with control over two processes with a privileged ptrace relationship, which can be abused to ptrace a suid binary and obtain root privileges. Fix both of these by always recording the credentials of the process that is requesting the creation of the ptrace relationship: current_cred() can't change under us, and current is the proper subject for access control. This change is theoretically userspace-visible, but I am not aware of any code that it will actually break.

Notify drm core before sending pending events during crtc disable. This fixes the first event after disable having an old stale timestamp by having drm_crtc_vblank_off update the timestamp to now. This was seen while debugging weston log message: Warning: computed repaint delay is insane: -8212 msec This occurred due to: 1. driver starts up 2. fbcon comes along and restores fbdev, enabling vblank 3. vblank_disable_fn fires via timer disabling vblank, keeping vblank seq number and time set at current value (some time later) 4. weston starts and does a modeset 5. atomic commit disables crtc while it does the modeset 6. ipu_crtc_atomic_disable sends vblank with old seq number and time Fixes: a4744786 ("drm/imx: fix crtc vblank state regression") Signed-off-by: Robert Beckett <bob.beckett@collabora.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch> Signed-off-by: Philipp Zabel <p.zabel@pengutronix.de>
