      fuse: atomic_o_trunc should truncate pagecache · df0e91d4
      Miklos Szeredi authored 
      Fuse has an "atomic_o_trunc" mode, where userspace filesystem uses the
O_TRUNC flag in the OPEN request to truncate the file atomically with the
open.

In this mode there's no need to send a SETATTR request to userspace after
the open, so fuse_do_setattr() checks this mode and returns.  But this
misses the important step of truncating the pagecache.

Add the missing parts of truncation to the ATTR_OPEN branch.

      parisc: Handle case where flush_cache_range is called with no context · 9ef0f88f
      John David Anglin authored 
      Just when I had decided that flush_cache_range() was always called with
a valid context, Helge reported two cases where the
"BUG_ON(!vma->vm_mm->context);" was hit on the phantom buildd:

This indicates that we need to handle the no context case in
flush_cache_range() as we do in flush_cache_mm().

In thinking about this, I realized that we don't need to flush the TLB
when there is no context.  So, I added context checks to the large flush
cases in flush_cache_mm() and flush_cache_range().  The large flush case
occurs frequently in flush_cache_mm() and the change should improve fork
performance.

The v2 version of this change removes the BUG_ON from flush_cache_page()
by skipping the TLB flush when there is no context.  I also added code
to flush the TLB in flush_cache_mm() and flush_cache_range() when we
have a context that's not current.  Now all three routines handle TLB
flushes in a similar manner.

      fs: Teach path_connected to handle nfs filesystems with multiple roots. · 95dd7758
      Eric W. Biederman authored 
      On nfsv2 and nfsv3 the nfs server can export subsets of the same
filesystem and report the same filesystem identifier, so that the nfs
client can know they are the same filesystem.  The subsets can be from
disjoint directory trees.  The nfsv2 and nfsv3 filesystems provides no
way to find the common root of all directory trees exported form the
server with the same filesystem identifier.

The practical result is that in struct super s_root for nfs s_root is
not necessarily the root of the filesystem.  The nfs mount code sets
s_root to the root of the first subset of the nfs filesystem that the
kernel mounts.

This effects the dcache invalidation code in generic_shutdown_super
currently called shrunk_dcache_for_umount and that code for years
has gone through an additional list of dentries that might be dentry
trees that need to be freed to accomodate nfs.

When I wrote path_connected I did not realize nfs was so special, and
it's hueristic for avoiding calling is_subdir can fail.

The practical case where this fails is when there is a move of a
directory from the subtree exposed by one nfs mount to the subtree
exposed by another nfs mount.  This move can happen either locally or
remotely.  With the remote case requiring that the move directory be cached
before the move and that after the move someone walks the path
to where the move directory now exists and in so doing causes the
already cached directory to be moved in the dcache through the magic
of d_splice_alias.

If someone whose working directory is in the move directory or a
subdirectory and now starts calling .. from the initial mount of nfs
(where s_root == mnt_root), then path_connected as a heuristic will
not bother with the is_subdir check.  As s_root really is not the root
of the nfs filesystem this heuristic is wrong, and the path may
actually not be connected and path_connected can fail.

The is_subdir function might be cheap enough that we can call it
unconditionally.  Verifying that will take some benchmarking and
the result may not be the same on all kernels this fix needs
to be backported to.  So I am avoiding that for now.

Filesystems with snapshots such as nilfs and btrfs do something
similar.  But as the directory tree of the snapshots are disjoint
from one another and from the main directory tree rename won't move
things between them and this problem will not occur.

      sparc64: Fix regression in pmdp_invalidate(). · cfb61b5e
      David S. Miller authored 
      pmdp_invalidate() was changed to update the pmd atomically
(to not lose dirty/access bits) and return the original pmd
value.

However, in doing so, we lost a lot of the essential work that
set_pmd_at() does, namely to update hugepage mapping counts and
queuing up the batched TLB flush entry.

Thus we were not flushing entries out of the TLB when making
such PMD changes.

Fix this by abstracting the accounting work of set_pmd_at() out into a
separate function, and call it from pmdp_establish().

      drm/i915/gvt: Correct the privilege shadow batch buffer address · ef75c685
      fred gao authored 
      Once the ring buffer is copied to ring_scan_buffer and scanned,
the shadow batch buffer start address is only updated into
ring_scan_buffer, not the real ring address allocated through
intel_ring_begin in later copy_workload_to_ring_buffer.

This patch is only to set the right shadow batch buffer address
from Ring buffer, not include the shadow_wa_ctx.

      btree: avoid variable-length allocations · 8df3aaaf
      Joern Engel authored 
      geo->keylen cannot be larger than 4.  So we might as well make
fixed-size allocations.

Given the one remaining user, geo->keylen cannot even be larger than 1.
Logfs used to have 64bit and 128bit keys, tcm_qla2xxx only has 32bit
keys.  But let's not break the code if we don't have to.

      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Pull percpu_ref rcu fixes from Tejun Heo:
 "Jann Horn found that aio was depending on the internal RCU grace
  periods of percpu-ref and that it's broken because aio uses regular
  RCU while percpu_ref uses sched-RCU.

  Depending on percpu_ref's internal grace periods isn't a good idea
  because

   - The RCU type might not match.

   - percpu_ref's grace periods are used to switch to atomic mode. They
     aren't between the last put and the invocation of the last release.
     This is easy to get confused about and can lead to subtle bugs.

   - percpu_ref might not have grace periods at all depending on its
     current operation mode.

  This patchset audits and fixes percpu_ref users for their RCU usages"

[ There's a continuation of this series that clarifies percpu_ref
  documentation that the internal grace periods must not be depended
  upon, and introduces rcu_work to simplify bouncing to a workqueue
  after an RCU grace period.

  That will go in for 4.17 - this is just the minimal set with the fixes
  that are tagged for -stable ]

      Revert "mm/page_alloc: fix memmap_init_zone pageblock alignment" · 3e04040d
      Ard Biesheuvel authored 
      This reverts commit 864b75f9.

Commit 864b75f9 ("mm/page_alloc: fix memmap_init_zone pageblock
alignment") modified the logic in memmap_init_zone() to initialize
struct pages associated with invalid PFNs, to appease a VM_BUG_ON()
in move_freepages(), which is redundant by its own admission, and
dereferences struct page fields to obtain the zone without checking
whether the struct pages in question are valid to begin with.

Commit 864b75f9 only makes it worse, since the rounding it does
may cause pfn assume the same value it had in a prior iteration of
the loop, resulting in an infinite loop and a hang very early in the
boot. Also, since it doesn't perform the same rounding on start_pfn
itself but only on intermediate values following an invalid PFN, we
may still hit the same VM_BUG_ON() as before.

So instead, let's fix this at the core, and ensure that the BUG
check doesn't dereference struct page fields of invalid pages.
