Pull workqueue fix from Tejun Heo: "CPU hotplug callbacks can invoke DOWN_FAILED w/o preceding DOWN_PREPARE which can trigger a WARN_ON() in workqueue. The bug has been there for a very long time. It only triggers if CPU down fails at a specific point and I don't think it has adverse effects other than the warning messages.

This will provide fully accuracy to the mapcount calculation in the write protect faults, so page pinning will not get broken by false positive copy-on-writes. total_mapcount() isn't the right calculation needed in reuse_swap_page(), so this introduces a page_trans_huge_mapcount() that is effectively the full accurate return value for page_mapcount() if dealing with Transparent Hugepages, however we only use the page_trans_huge_mapcount() during COW faults where it strictly needed, due to its higher runtime cost. This also provide at practical zero cost the total_mapcount information which is needed to know if we can still relocate the page anon_vma to the local vma. If page_trans_huge_mapcount() returns 1 we can reuse the page no matter if it's a pte or a pmd_trans_huge triggering the fault, but we can only relocate the page anon_vma to the local vma->anon_vma if we're sure it's only this "vma" mapping the whole THP physical range. Kirill A. Shutemov discovered the problem with moving the page anon_vma to the local vma->anon_vma in a previous version of this patch and another problem in the way page_move_anon_rmap() was called. Andrew Morton discovered that CONFIG_SWAP=n wouldn't build in a previous version, because reuse_swap_page must be a macro to call page_trans_huge_mapcount from swap.h, so this uses a macro again instead of an inline function. With this change at least it's a less dangerous usage than it was before, because "page" is used only once now, while with the previous code reuse_swap_page(page++) would have called page_mapcount on page+1 and it would have increased page twice instead of just once. Dean Luick noticed an uninitialized variable that could result in a rmap inefficiency for the non-THP case in a previous version. Mike Marciniszyn said: : Our RDMA tests are seeing an issue with memory locking that bisects to : commit 61f5d698 ("mm: re-enable THP") : : The test program registers two rather large MRs (512M) and RDMA : writes data to a passive peer using the first and RDMA reads it back : into the second MR and compares that data. The sizes are chosen randomly : between 0 and 1024 bytes. : : The test will get through a few (<= 4 iterations) and then gets a : compare error. : : Tracing indicates the kernel logical addresses associated with the individual : pages at registration ARE correct , the data in the "RDMA read response only" : packets ARE correct. : : The "corruption" occurs when the packet crosse two pages that are not physically : contiguous. The second page reads back as zero in the program. : : It looks like the user VA at the point of the compare error no longer points to : the same physical address as was registered. : : This patch totally resolves the issue!

A concurrency issue about KSM in the function scan_get_next_rmap_item. task A (ksmd): |task B (the mm's task): | mm = slot->mm; | down_read(&mm->mmap_sem); | | ... | | spin_lock(&ksm_mmlist_lock); | | ksm_scan.mm_slot go to the next slot; | | spin_unlock(&ksm_mmlist_lock); | |mmput() -> | ksm_exit(): | |spin_lock(&ksm_mmlist_lock); |if (mm_slot && ksm_scan.mm_slot != mm_slot) { | if (!mm_slot->rmap_list) { | easy_to_free = 1; | ... | |if (easy_to_free) { | mmdrop(mm); | ... | |So this mm_struct may be freed in the mmput(). | up_read(&mm->mmap_sem); | As we can see above, the ksmd thread may access a mm_struct that already been freed to the kmem_cache. Suppose a fork will get this mm_struct from the kmem_cache, the ksmd thread then call up_read(&mm->mmap_sem), will cause mmap_sem.count to become -1. As suggested by Andrea Arcangeli, unmerge_and_remove_all_rmap_items has the same SMP race condition, so fix it too. My prev fix in function scan_get_next_rmap_item will introduce a different SMP race condition, so just invert the up_read/spin_unlock order as Andrea Arcangeli said.

Commit 702e5bc6 ("ocfs2: use generic posix ACL infrastructure") refactored code to use posix_acl_create. The problem with this function is that it is not mindful of the cluster wide inode lock making it unsuitable for use with ocfs2 inode creation with ACLs. For example, when used in ocfs2_mknod, this function can cause deadlock as follows. The parent dir inode lock is taken when calling posix_acl_create -> get_acl -> ocfs2_iop_get_acl which takes the inode lock again. This can cause deadlock if there is a blocked remote lock request waiting for the lock to be downconverted. And same deadlock happened in ocfs2_reflink. This fix is to revert back using ocfs2_init_acl.

Commit 743b5f14 ("ocfs2: take inode lock in ocfs2_iop_set/get_acl()") introduced this issue. ocfs2_setattr called by chmod command holds cluster wide inode lock when calling posix_acl_chmod. This latter function in turn calls ocfs2_iop_get_acl and ocfs2_iop_set_acl. These two are also called directly from vfs layer for getfacl/setfacl commands and therefore acquire the cluster wide inode lock. If a remote conversion request comes after the first inode lock in ocfs2_setattr, OCFS2_LOCK_BLOCKED will be set. And this will cause the second call to inode lock from the ocfs2_iop_get_acl() to block indefinetly. The deleted version of ocfs2_acl_chmod() calls __posix_acl_chmod() which does not call back into the filesystem. Therefore, we restore ocfs2_acl_chmod(), modify it slightly for locking as needed, and use that instead.

One which handles | UP/DOWN_FAILED/ONLINE and one which handles DOWN_PREPARE. | | Now look at the priorities of those callbacks: | | CPU_PRI_WORKQUEUE_UP = 5 | CPU_PRI_WORKQUEUE_DOWN = -5 | | So the call order on DOWN_PREPARE is: | | CB 1 | CB ... | CB workqueue_up() -> Ignores DOWN_PREPARE | CB ... | CB X ---> Fails | | So we call up to CB X with DOWN_FAILED | | CB 1 | CB ... | CB workqueue_up() -> Handles DOWN_FAILED | CB ... | CB X-1 | | So the problem is that the workqueue stuff handles DOWN_FAILED in the up | callback, while it should do it in the down callback. Which is not a good idea | either because it wants to be called early on rollback... | | Brilliant stuff, isn't it? The hotplug rework will solve this problem because | the callbacks become symetric, but for the existing mess, we need some | workaround in the workqueue code. The boot CPU handles housekeeping duty(unbound timers, workqueues, timekeeping, ...) on behalf of full dynticks CPUs. It must remain online when nohz full is enabled. There is a priority set to every notifier_blocks: workqueue_cpu_up > tick_nohz_cpu_down > workqueue_cpu_down So tick_nohz_cpu_down callback failed when down prepare cpu 0, and notifier_blocks behind tick_nohz_cpu_down will not be called any more, which leads to workers are actually not unbound. Then hotplug state machine will fallback to undo and online cpu 0 again. Workers will be rebound unconditionally even if they are not unbound and trigger the warning in this progress. This patch fix it by catching !DISASSOCIATED to avoid rebind bound workers.

At the end of process_filter(), collapse_tree() was changed to update the parg parameter, but the reassignment after the call wasn't removed. What happens is that the "current_op" gets modified and freed and parg is assigned to the new allocated argument. But after the call to collapse_tree(), parg is assigned again to the just freed "current_op", and this causes the tool to crash. The current_op variable must also be assigned to NULL in case of error, otherwise it will cause it to be free()ed twice.

When the PMU driver reports a truncated AUX record, it effectively means that there is no more usable room in the event's AUX buffer (even though there may still be some room, so that perf_aux_output_begin() doesn't take action). At this point the consumer still has to be woken up and the event has to be disabled, otherwise the event will just keep spinning between perf_aux_output_begin() and perf_aux_output_end() until its context gets unscheduled. Again, for cpu-wide events this means never, so once in this condition, they will be forever losing data. Fix this by disabling the event and waking up the consumer in case of a truncated AUX record.

Currently, the PT driver always sets the PMI bit one region (page) before the STOP region so that we can wake up the consumer before we run out of room in the buffer and have to disable the event. However, we also need an interrupt in the last output region, so that we actually get to disable the event (if no more room from new data is available at that point), otherwise hardware just quietly refuses to start, but the event is scheduled in and we end up losing trace data till the event gets removed. For a cpu-wide event it is even worse since there may not be any re-scheduling at all and no chance for the ring buffer code to notice that its buffer is filled up and the event needs to be disabled (so that the consumer can re-enable it when it finishes reading the data out). In other words, all the trace data will be lost after the buffer gets filled up. This patch makes PT also generate a PMI when the last output region is full.

This fixes CVE-2016-0758. In the ASN.1 decoder, when the length field of an ASN.1 value is extracted, it isn't validated against the remaining amount of data before being added to the cursor. With a sufficiently large size indicated, the check: datalen - dp < 2 may then fail due to integer overflow. Fix this by checking the length indicated against the amount of remaining data in both places a definite length is determined. Whilst we're at it, make the following changes: (1) Check the maximum size of extended length does not exceed the capacity of the variable it's being stored in (len) rather than the type that variable is assumed to be (size_t). (2) Compare the EOC tag to the symbolic constant ASN1_EOC rather than the integer 0. (3) To reduce confusion, move the initialisation of len outside of: for (len = 0; n > 0; n--) { since it doesn't have anything to do with the loop counter n.
