Add few more triplets based on Fedora and Ubuntu binutils (cross tools). Before applying patch on x86: ( Install binutils-powerpc64-linux-gnu.x86_64 ) $ perf report -i perf.data.powerpc --vmlinux vmlinux.powerpc \ --objdump powerpc64-linux-gnu-objdump After applying patch on x86: $ perf report -i perf.data.powerpc --vmlinux vmlinux.powerpc I.e. it will find the right objdump from the environment data recorded in the perf.data file + these triplets.

Add quirk for context switch to save/restore the value of MSR_LAST_BRANCH_FROM_x when LBR is enabled and there is potential for kernel addresses to be in the lbr_from register. To test this patch, use a perf tool and kernel with the patch next in this series. That patch removes the work around that masked the hw bug: $ ./lbr_perf record --call-graph lbr -e cycles:k sleep 1 where lbr_perf is the patched perf tool, that allows to specify :k on lbr mode. The above command will trigger a #GPF : WARNING: CPU: 28 PID: 14096 at arch/x86/mm/extable.c:65 ex_handler_wrmsr_unsafe+0x70/0x80 unchecked MSR access error: WRMSR to 0x681 (tried to write 0x1fffffff81010794) ...

Intel's SDM states that bits 61:62 in MSR_LAST_BRANCH_FROM_x are the TSX flags for formats with LBR_TSX flags (i.e. LBR_FORMAT_EIP_EFLAGS2). However, when the CPU has TSX support deactivated, bits 61:62 actually behave as follows: - For wrmsr(), bits 61:62 are considered part of the sign extension. - When capturing branches, the LBR hw will always clear bits 61:62. regardless of the sign extension. Therefore, if: 1) LBR has TSX format. 2) CPU has no TSX support enabled. ... then any value passed to wrmsr() must be sign extended to 63 bits and any value from rdmsr() must be converted to have a sign extension of 61 bits, ignoring the values at TSX flags. This bug was masked by the work-around to the Intel's CPU bug: BJ94. "LBR May Contain Incorrect Information When Using FREEZE_LBRS_ON_PMI" in Document Number: 324643-037US. The aforementioned work-around uses hw flags to filter out all kernel branches, limiting LBR callstack to user level execution only. Since user addresses are not sign extended, they do not trigger the wrmsr() bug in MSR_LAST_BRANCH_FROM_x when saved/restored at context switch. To verify the hw bug: $ perf record -b -e cycles sleep 1 $ rdmsr -p 0 0x680 0x1fffffffb0b9b0cc $ wrmsr -p 0 0x680 0x1fffffffb0b9b0cc write(): Input/output error The quirk for LBR_FROM_ MSRs is required before calls to wrmsrl() and after rdmsrl(). This patch introduces it for wrmsrl()'s done for testing LBR support. Future patch in series adds the quirk for context switch, that would be required if LBR callstack is to be enabled for ring 0.

Commit fe742fd4 ("Revert "btrfs: switch to ->iterate_shared()"") backed out the conversion to ->iterate_shared() for Btrfs because the delayed inode handling in btrfs_real_readdir() is racy. However, we can still do readdir in parallel if there are no delayed nodes. This is a temporary fix which upgrades the shared inode lock to an exclusive lock only when we have delayed items until we come up with a more complete solution. While we're here, rename the btrfs_{get,put}_delayed_items functions to make it very clear that they're just for readdir. Tested with xfstests and by doing a parallel kernel build: while make tinyconfig && make -j4 && git clean dqfx; do : done along with a bunch of parallel finds in another shell: while true; do for ((i=0; i<4; i++)); do find . >/dev/null & done wait done Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <clm@fb.com>

Pull arm64 fixes from Will Deacon: "Here are a few more arm64 fixes, but things do finally appear to be slowing down. The main fix is avoiding hibernation in a previously unanticipated situation where we have CPUs parked in the kernel, but it's all good stuff. - Fix icache/dcache sync for anonymous pages under migration - Correct the ASID limit check - Fix parallel builds of Image and Image.gz - Refuse to hibernate when we have CPUs that we can't offline" * tag 'arm64-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: arm64: hibernate: Don't hibernate on systems with stuck CPUs arm64: smp: Add function to determine if cpus are stuck in the kernel arm64: mm: remove page_mapping check in __sync_icache_dcache arm64: fix boot image dependencies to not generate invalid images arm64: update ASID limit

The value `bytes' comes from the filesystem which is about to be mounted. We cannot trust that the value is always in the range we expect it to be. Check its value before using it to calculate the length for the crc32_le call. It value must be larger (or equal) sumoff + 4. This fixes a kernel bug when accidentially mounting an image file which had the nilfs2 magic value 0x3434 at the right offset 0x406 by chance. The bytes 0x01 0x00 were stored at 0x408 and were interpreted as a s_bytes value of 1. This caused an underflow when substracting sumoff + 4 (20) in the call to crc32_le.

Tetsuo has reported the following potential oom_killer_disable vs. oom_reaper race: (1) freeze_processes() starts freezing user space threads. (2) Somebody (maybe a kenrel thread) calls out_of_memory(). (3) The OOM killer calls mark_oom_victim() on a user space thread P1 which is already in __refrigerator(). (4) oom_killer_disable() sets oom_killer_disabled = true. (5) P1 leaves __refrigerator() and enters do_exit(). (6) The OOM reaper calls exit_oom_victim(P1) before P1 can call exit_oom_victim(P1). (7) oom_killer_disable() returns while P1 not yet finished (8) P1 perform IO/interfere with the freezer. This situation is unfortunate. We cannot move oom_killer_disable after all the freezable kernel threads are frozen because the oom victim might depend on some of those kthreads to make a forward progress to exit so we could deadlock. It is also far from trivial to teach the oom_reaper to not call exit_oom_victim() because then we would lose a guarantee of the OOM killer and oom_killer_disable forward progress because exit_mm->mmput might block and never call exit_oom_victim. It seems the easiest way forward is to workaround this race by calling try_to_freeze_tasks again after oom_killer_disable. This will make sure that all the tasks are frozen or it bails out.

According to some high-load testing, these two BUG assertions were encountered, this led system panic. Actually, there were some discussions about removing these two BUG() assertions, it would not bring any side effect. Then, I did the the following changes, 1) use the existing macro CATCH_BH_JBD_RACES to wrap BUG() in the ocfs2_read_blocks_sync function like before. 2) disable the macro CATCH_BH_JBD_RACES in Makefile by default.

If the memory compaction free scanner cannot successfully split a free page (only possible due to per-zone low watermark), terminate the free scanner rather than continuing to scan memory needlessly. If the watermark is insufficient for a free page of order <= cc->order, then terminate the scanner since all future splits will also likely fail. This prevents the compaction freeing scanner from scanning all memory on very large zones (very noticeable for zones > 128GB, for instance) when all splits will likely fail while holding zone->lock. compaction_alloc() iterating a 128GB zone has been benchmarked to take over 400ms on some systems whereas any free page isolated and ready to be split ends up failing in split_free_page() because of the low watermark check and thus the iteration continues. The next time compaction occurs, the freeing scanner will likely start at the end of the zone again since no success was made previously and we get the same lengthy iteration until the zone is brought above the low watermark. All thp page faults can take >400ms in such a state without this fix.
