Commit 66dbd6e6 ("arm64: Implement ptep_set_access_flags() for hardware AF/DBM") ensured that pte flags are updated atomically in the face of potential concurrent, hardware-assisted updates. However, Alex reports that: | This patch breaks swapping for me. | In the broken case, you'll see either systemd cpu time spike (because | it's stuck in a page fault loop) or the system hang (because the | application owning the screen is stuck in a page fault loop). It turns out that this is because the 'dirty' argument to ptep_set_access_flags is always 0 for read faults, and so we can't use it to set PTE_RDONLY. The failing sequence is: 1. We put down a PTE_WRITE | PTE_DIRTY | PTE_AF pte 2. Memory pressure -> pte_mkold(pte) -> clear PTE_AF 3. A read faults due to the missing access flag 4. ptep_set_access_flags is called with dirty = 0, due to the read fault 5. pte is then made PTE_WRITE | PTE_DIRTY | PTE_AF | PTE_RDONLY (!) 6. A write faults, but pte_write is true so we get stuck The solution is to check the new page table entry (as would be done by the generic, non-atomic definition of ptep_set_access_flags that just calls set_pte_at) to establish the dirty state.

The /dev/ptmx device node is changed to lookup the directory entry "pts" in the same directory as the /dev/ptmx device node was opened in. If there is a "pts" entry and that entry is a devpts filesystem /dev/ptmx uses that filesystem. Otherwise the open of /dev/ptmx fails. The DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES configuration option is removed, so that userspace can now safely depend on each mount of devpts creating a new instance of the filesystem. Each mount of devpts is now a separate and equal filesystem. Reserved ttys are now available to all instances of devpts where the mounter is in the initial mount namespace. A new vfs helper path_pts is introduced that finds a directory entry named "pts" in the directory of the passed in path, and changes the passed in path to point to it. The helper path_pts uses a function path_parent_directory that was factored out of follow_dotdot. In the implementation of devpts: - devpts_mnt is killed as it is no longer meaningful if all mounts of devpts are equal. - pts_sb_from_inode is replaced by just inode->i_sb as all cached inodes in the tty layer are now from the devpts filesystem. - devpts_add_ref is rolled into the new function devpts_ptmx. And the unnecessary inode hold is removed. - devpts_del_ref is renamed devpts_release and reduced to just a deacrivate_super. - The newinstance mount option continues to be accepted but is now ignored. In devpts_fs.h definitions for when !CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS are removed as they are never used. Documentation/filesystems/devices.txt is updated to describe the current situation. This has been verified to work properly on openwrt-15.05, centos5, centos6, centos7, debian-6.0.2, debian-7.9, debian-8.2, ubuntu-14.04.3, ubuntu-15.10, fedora23, magia-5, mint-17.3, opensuse-42.1, slackware-14.1, gentoo-20151225 (13.0?), archlinux-2015-12-01. With the caveat that on centos6 and on slackware-14.1 that there wind up being two instances of the devpts filesystem mounted on /dev/pts, the lower copy does not end up getting used. Signed-off-by:

Syscalls should never crash programs, but instead return EFAULT. The IIR register contains the executed instruction, which disassebles into "ldw 0(sr3,r5),r9". This load-word instruction is part of __get_user() which tried to read the word at %r5/IOR (0xfa6f7fff). This means the unaligned handler jumped in. The unaligned handler is able to emulate all ldw instructions, but it fails if it fails to read the source e.g. because of page fault. The following program reproduces the problem: #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/mman.h> int main(void) { /* allocate 8k */ char *ptr = mmap(NULL, 2*4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0); /* free second half (upper 4k) and make it invalid. */ munmap(ptr+4096, 4096); /* syscall where first int is unaligned and clobbers into invalid memory region */ /* syscall should return EFAULT */ return syscall(__NR_clock_adjtime, 0, ptr+4095); } To fix this issue we simply need to check if the faulting instruction address is in the exception fixup table when the unaligned handler failed. If it is, call the fixup routine instead of crashing. While looking at the unaligned handler I found another issue as well: The target register should not be modified if the handler was unsuccessful.

This patch fixes backtrace on PA-RISC There were several problems: 1) The code that decodes instructions handles instructions that subtract from the stack pointer incorrectly. If the instruction subtracts the number X from the stack pointer the code increases the frame size by (0x100000000-X). This results in invalid accesses to memory and recursive page faults. 2) Because gcc reorders blocks, handling instructions that subtract from the frame pointer is incorrect. For example, this function int f(int a) { if (__builtin_expect(a, 1)) return a; g(); return a; } is compiled in such a way, that the code that decreases the stack pointer for the first "return a" is placed before the code for "g" call. If we recognize this decrement, we mistakenly believe that the frame size for the "g" call is zero. To fix problems 1) and 2), the patch doesn't recognize instructions that decrease the stack pointer at all. To further safeguard the unwind code against nonsense values, we don't allow frame size larger than Total_frame_size. 3) The backtrace is not locked. If stack dump races with module unload, invalid table can be accessed. This patch adds a spinlock when processing module tables. Note, that for correct backtrace, you need recent binutils. Binutils 2.18 from Debian 5 produce garbage unwind tables. Binutils 2.21 work better (it sometimes forgets function frames, but at least it doesn't generate garbage). Signed-off-by:

The optimistic fast path may use cpuset_current_mems_allowed instead of of a NULL nodemask supplied by the caller for cpuset allocations. The preferred zone is calculated on this basis for statistic purposes and as a starting point in the zonelist iterator. However, if the context can ignore memory policies due to being atomic or being able to ignore watermarks then the starting point in the zonelist iterator is no longer correct. This patch resets the zonelist iterator in the allocator slowpath if the context can ignore memory policies. This will alter the zone used for statistics but only after it is known that it makes sense for that context. Resetting it before entering the slowpath would potentially allow an ALLOC_CPUSET allocation to be accounted for against the wrong zone. Note that while nodemask is not explicitly set to the original nodemask, it would only have been overwritten if cpuset_enabled() and it was reset before the slowpath was entered.

In DEBUG_VM kernel, we can hit infinite loop for order == 0 in buffered_rmqueue() when check_new_pcp() returns 1, because the bad page is never removed from the pcp list. Fix this by removing the page before retrying. Also we don't need to check if page is non-NULL, because we simply grab it from the list which was just tested for being non-empty.

When dealing with inline extents, btrfs_get_extent will incorrectly try to insert a duplicate extent_map. The dup hits -EEXIST from add_extent_map, but then we try to merge with the existing one and end up trying to insert a zero length extent_map. This actually works most of the time, except when there are extent maps past the end of the inline extent. rocksdb will trigger this sometimes because it preallocates an extent and then truncates down. Josef made a script to trigger with xfs_io: #!/bin/bash xfs_io -f -c "pwrite 0 1000" inline xfs_io -c "falloc -k 4k 1M" inline xfs_io -c "pread 0 1000" -c "fadvise -d 0 1000" -c "pread 0 1000" inline xfs_io -c "fadvise -d 0 1000" inline cat inline You'll get EIOs trying to read inline after this because add_extent_map is returning EEXIST Signed-off-by:

Prior to this commit _stext was always section aligned and didn't cause any issue even when RANDOMIZE_TEXT_OFFSET was enabled. Since that alignment has been removed and _text is used to map the .text segment, we need ensure _text is always page aligned when RANDOMIZE_TEXT_OFFSET is enabled. This patch adds logic to TEXT_OFFSET fuzzing to ensure that the offset is always aligned to the kernel page size. To ensure this, we rely on the PAGE_SHIFT being available via Kconfig. Signed-off-by:

The page table dump code logs spans of entries at the same level (pgd/pud/pmd/pte) which have the same attributes. While we log the (decoded) attributes, we don't log the level, which leaves the output ambiguous and/or confusing in some cases. For example: 0xffff800800000000-0xffff800980000000 6G RW NX SHD AF BLK UXN MEM/NORMAL If using 4K pages, this may describe a span of 6 1G block entries at the PGD/PUD level, or 3072 2M block entries at the PMD level. This patch adds the page table level to each output line, removing this ambiguity. For the example above, this will produce: 0xffffffc800000000-0xffffffc980000000 6G PUD RW NX SHD AF BLK UXN MEM/NORMAL When 3 level tables are in use, and we use the asm-generic/nopud.h definitions, the dump code treats each entry in the PGD as a 1 element table at the PUD level, and logs spans as being PUDs, which can be confusing. To counteract this, the "PUD" mnemonic is replaced with "PGD" when CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS <= 3. Likewise for "PMD" when CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS <= 2. Signed-off-by:

Commit ab893fb9 ("arm64: introduce KIMAGE_VADDR as the virtual base of the kernel region") logically split KIMAGE_VADDR from PAGE_OFFSET, and since commit f9040773 ("arm64: move kernel image to base of vmalloc area") the two have been distinct values. Unfortunately, neither commit updated the comment above these definitions, which now erroneously states that PAGE_OFFSET is the start of the kernel image rather than the start of the linear mapping. This patch fixes said comment, and introduces an explanation of KIMAGE_VADDR. Signed-off-by:
