A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads
/proc/kcore:

 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000
 IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110
 [...]

 Call Trace:
  [<ffffffff811b8aaa>] read_kcore+0x17a/0x370

  [<ffffffff811517f3>] sys_read+0x53/0xa0
  [<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading
system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first
address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the
PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page.

The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is
not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if
it was a PMD.  If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll
silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If
the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be
walked resulting in the oops above.

This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check.

Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now
they are running the backup program without accessing
/proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it
makes sense.

When a HP ProLiant DL980 G7 Server boots a regular kernel,
there will be intermittent lost interrupts which could
result in a hang or (in extreme cases) data loss.

The reason is that this system only supports x2apic physical
mode, while the kernel boots with a logical-cluster default
setting.

This bug can be worked around by specifying the "x2apic_phys" or
"nox2apic" boot option, but we want to handle this system
without requiring manual workarounds.

The BIOS sets ACPI_FADT_APIC_PHYSICAL in FADT table.
As all apicids are smaller than 255, BIOS need to pass the
control to the OS with xapic mode, according to x2apic-spec,
chapter 2.9.

Current code handle x2apic when BIOS pass with xapic mode
enabled:

When user specifies x2apic_phys, or FADT indicates PHYSICAL:

1. During madt oem check, apic driver is set with xapic logical
   or xapic phys driver at first.

2. enable_IR_x2apic() will enable x2apic_mode.

3. if user specifies x2apic_phys on the boot line, x2apic_phys_probe()
   will install the correct x2apic phys driver and use x2apic phys mode.
   Otherwise it will skip the driver will let x2apic_cluster_probe to
   take over to install x2apic cluster driver (wrong one) even though FADT
   indicates PHYSICAL, because x2apic_phys_probe does not check
   FADT PHYSICAL.

Add checking x2apic_fadt_phys in x2apic_phys_probe() to fix the
problem.

Without this patch, it is trivial to determine kernel page
mappings by examining the error code reported to dmesg[1].
Instead, declare the entire kernel memory space as a violation
of a present page.

Additionally, since show_unhandled_signals is enabled by
default, switch branch hinting to the more realistic
expectation, and unobfuscate the setting of the PF_PROT bit to
improve readability.

The seccomp filters are currently built for the build host, not for the
machine that they are going to run on, but they are also built for with
the -m32 flag if the kernel is built for a 32 bit machine, both of which
seems rather odd.

It broke allyesconfig on my machine, which is x86-64, but building for
32 bit ARM, with this error message:

  In file included from /usr/include/stdio.h:28:0,
                   from samples/seccomp/bpf-fancy.c:15:
  /usr/include/features.h:324:26: fatal error: bits/predefs.h: No such file or directory

because there are no 32 bit libc headers installed on this machine.  We
should really be building all the samples for the target machine rather
than the build host, but since the infrastructure for that appears to be
missing right now, let's be a little bit smarter and not pass the '-m32'
flag to the HOSTCC when cross- compiling.

The macro for_each_memcg_cache_index contains a silly yet potentially

are done over i, not _idx.

This hasn't generated any problems so far, because all users use i as a

ended using another loop index and the compiler was quick to complain.

Unfortunately, this is not the kind of thing that testing reveals =(

There exists a situation when GC can work in background alone without
any other filesystem activity during significant time.

The nilfs_clean_segments() method calls nilfs_segctor_construct() that
updates superblocks in the case of NILFS_SC_SUPER_ROOT and
THE_NILFS_DISCONTINUED flags are set.  But when GC is working alone the
nilfs_clean_segments() is called with unset THE_NILFS_DISCONTINUED flag.
As a result, the update of superblocks doesn't occurred all this time
and in the case of SPOR superblocks keep very old values of last super
root placement.

SYMPTOMS:

Trying to mount a NILFS2 volume after SPOR in such environment ends with
very long mounting time (it can achieve about several hours in some
cases).

REPRODUCING PATH:

1. It needs to use external USB HDD, disable automount and doesn't
   make any additional filesystem activity on the NILFS2 volume.

2. Generate temporary file with size about 100 - 500 GB (for example,
   dd if=/dev/zero of=<file_name> bs=1073741824 count=200).  The size of
   file defines duration of GC working.

3. Then it needs to delete file.

4. Start GC manually by means of command "nilfs-clean -p 0".  When you
   start GC by means of such way then, at the end, superblocks is updated
   by once.  So, for simulation of SPOR, it needs to wait sometime (15 -
   40 minutes) and simply switch off USB HDD manually.

5. Switch on USB HDD again and try to mount NILFS2 volume.  As a
   result, NILFS2 volume will mount during very long time.

REPRODUCIBILITY: 100%

FIX:

This patch adds checking that superblocks need to update and set
THE_NILFS_DISCONTINUED flag before nilfs_clean_segments() call.

When we have group with mixed events (hw/sw) we want to end up
with group leader being in hw context. So if group leader is
initialy sw event, we move all the events under hw context.

The move is done for each event by removing it from its context
and adding it back into proper one. As a part of the removal the
event is automatically disabled, which is not what we want at
this stage of creating groups.

The fix is to initialize event state after removal from sw
context.

This fix resulted from the following discussion:

  drm/radeon: add WAIT_UNTIL to the non-VM safe regs list for cayman/TN
  drm/radeon: fix MC blackout on evergreen+

This patch fixes a possible divide by zero bug when the fabric_max_sectors
device attribute is written and backend se_device failed to be successfully
configured -> enabled.

Go ahead and use block_size=512 within se_dev_set_fabric_max_sectors()
in the event of a target_configure_device() failure case, as no valid
dev->dev_attrib.block_size value will have been setup yet.

This patch fixes a v3.8-rc1 regression bug where an unconfigured se_device
was incorrectly allowed to perform a fabric port-link.  This bug was
introduced in commit:

  commit 0fd97ccf
  Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org>
  Date:   Mon Oct 8 00:03:19 2012 -0400

      target: kill struct se_subsystem_dev

which ended up dropping the original se_subsystem_dev->se_dev_ptr check
preventing this from happening with pre commit 0fd97ccf code.
