nfsd currently reports the NFSv3 dtpref FSINFO parameter to be PAGE_SIZE, so NFS clients will typically ask for one page of directory entries at a time. This is needlessly restrictive as nfsd can handle larger replies easily. Also, a READDIR request (but not a READDIRPLUS request) has the count size clipped to PAGE_SIE, again unnecessary. This patch lifts these limits so that larger readdir requests can be used. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@redhat.com>

If the result of an NFSv3 readdir{,plus} request results in the "offset" on one entry having to be split across 2 pages, and is sized so that the next directory entry doesn't fit in the requested size, then memory corruption can happen. When encode_entry() is called after encoding the last entry that fits, it notices that ->offset and ->offset1 are set, and so stores the offset value in the two pages as required. It clears ->offset1 but *does not* clear ->offset. Normally this omission doesn't matter as encode_entry_baggage() will be called, and will set ->offset to a suitable value (not on a page boundary). But in the case where cd->buflen < elen and nfserr_toosmall is returned, ->offset is not reset. This means that nfsd3proc_readdirplus will see ->offset with a value 4 bytes before the end of a page, and ->offset1 set to NULL. It will try to write 8bytes to ->offset. If we are lucky, the next page will be read-only, and the system will BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at... If we are unlucky, some innocent page will have the first 4 bytes corrupted. nfsd3proc_readdir() doesn't even check for ->offset1, it just blindly writes 8 bytes to the offset wherever it is. Fix this by clearing ->offset after it is used, and copying the ->offset handling code from nfsd3_proc_readdirplus into nfsd3_proc_readdir.

We're unintentionally limiting the number of slots per nfsv4.1 session to 10. Often more than 10 simultaneous RPCs are needed for the best performance. This calculation was meant to prevent any one client from using up more than a third of the limit we set for total memory use across all clients and sessions. Instead, it's limiting the client to a third of the maximum for a single session. Fix this.

James Pearson found that an NFS server stopped responding to UDP requests if started with more than 1017 threads. sv_max_mesg is about 2^20, so that is probably where the calculation performed by svc_sock_setbufsize(svsk->sk_sock, (serv->sv_nrthreads+3) * serv->sv_max_mesg, (serv->sv_nrthreads+3) * serv->sv_max_mesg); starts to overflow an int.

One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo entry[]; }; instance = kmalloc(sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(struct boo), GFP_KERNEL); Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can now use the new struct_size() helper: instance = kmalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL); This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

In the rpc server, When something happens that might be reason to wake up a thread to do something, what we do is - modify xpt_flags, sk_sock->flags, xpt_reserved, or xpt_nr_rqsts to indicate the new situation - call svc_xprt_enqueue() to decide whether to wake up a thread. svc_xprt_enqueue may require multiple conditions to be true before queueing up a thread to handle the xprt. In the SMP case, one of the other CPU's may have set another required condition, and in that case, although both CPUs run svc_xprt_enqueue(), it's possible that neither call sees the writes done by the other CPU in time, and neither one recognizes that all the required conditions have been set. A socket could therefore be ignored indefinitely. Add memory barries to ensure that any svc_xprt_enqueue() call will always see the conditions changed by other CPUs before deciding to ignore a socket. I've never seen this race reported. In the unlikely event it happens, another event will usually come along and the problem will fix itself. So I don't think this is worth backporting to stable.

Two and a half years ago, the client was changed to use gathered Send for larger inline messages, in commit 655fec69 ("xprtrdma: Use gathered Send for large inline messages"). Several fixes were required because there are a few in-kernel device drivers whose max_sge is 3, and these were broken by the change. Apparently my memory is going, because some time later, I submitted commit 25fd86ec ("svcrdma: Don't overrun the SGE array in svc_rdma_send_ctxt"), and after that, commit f3c1fd0e ("svcrdma: Reduce max_send_sges"). These too incorrectly assumed in-kernel device drivers would have more than a few Send SGEs available. The fix for the server side is not the same. This is because the fundamental problem on the server is that, whether or not the client has provisioned a chunk for the RPC reply, the server must squeeze even the most complex RPC replies into a single RDMA Send. Failing in the send path because of Send SGE exhaustion should never be an option. Therefore, instead of failing when the send path runs out of SGEs, switch to using a bounce buffer mechanism to handle RPC replies that are too complex for the device to send directly. That allows us to remove the max_sge check to enable drivers with small max_sge to work again.

When reading 'efi_page_tables' debugfs triggers an out-of-bounds access here: arch/arm64/mm/dump.c: 282 if (addr >= st->marker[1].start_address) { called from: arch/arm64/mm/dump.c: 331 note_page(st, addr, 2, pud_val(pud)); because st->marker++ is is called after "UEFI runtime end" which is the last element in addr_marker[].

autofs_expire_run() calls dput(dentry) to drop the reference count of dentry. However, dentry is read via autofs_dentry_ino(dentry) after that. This may result in a use-free-bug. The patch drops the reference count of dentry only when it is never used.

When superblock has lots of inodes without any pagecache (like is the case for /proc), drop_pagecache_sb() will iterate through all of them without dropping sb->s_inode_list_lock which can lead to softlockups (one of our customers hit this). Fix the problem by going to the slow path and doing cond_resched() in case the process needs rescheduling.

We had a race in the old balloon compaction code before b1123ea6 ("mm: balloon: use general non-lru movable page feature") refactored it that became visible after backporting 195a8c43 ("virtio-balloon: deflate via a page list") without the refactoring. The bug existed from commit d6d86c0a ("mm/balloon_compaction: redesign ballooned pages management") till b1123ea6 ("mm: balloon: use general non-lru movable page feature"). d6d86c0a ("mm/balloon_compaction: redesign ballooned pages management") was backported to 3.12, so the broken kernels are stable kernels [3.12 - 4.7]. There was a subtle race between dropping the page lock of the newpage in __unmap_and_move() and checking for __is_movable_balloon_page(newpage). Just after dropping this page lock, virtio-balloon could go ahead and deflate the newpage, effectively dequeueing it and clearing PageBalloon, in turn making __is_movable_balloon_page(newpage) fail. This resulted in dropping the reference of the newpage via putback_lru_page(newpage) instead of put_page(newpage), leading to page->lru getting modified and a !LRU page ending up in the LRU lists. With 195a8c43 ("virtio-balloon: deflate via a page list") backported, one would suddenly get corrupted lists in release_pages_balloon(): - WARNING: CPU: 13 PID: 6586 at lib/list_debug.c:59 __list_del_entry+0xa1/0xd0 - list_del corruption. prev->next should be ffffe253961090a0, but was dead000000000100 Nowadays this race is no longer possible, but it is hidden behind very ugly handling of __ClearPageMovable() and __PageMovable(). __ClearPageMovable() will not make __PageMovable() fail, only PageMovable(). So the new check (__PageMovable(newpage)) will still hold even after newpage was dequeued by virtio-balloon. If anybody would ever change that special handling, the BUG would be introduced again. So instead, make it explicit and use the information of the original isolated page before migration. This patch can be backported fairly easy to stable kernels (in contrast to the refactoring).

The current help text caused some confusion in online forums about whether or not to default-enable or default-disable psi in vendor kernels. This is because it doesn't communicate the reason for why we made this setting configurable in the first place: that the overhead is non-zero in an artificial scheduler stress test. Since this isn't representative of real workloads, and the effect was not measurable in scheduler-heavy real world applications such as the webservers and memcache installations at Facebook, it's fair to point out that this is a pretty cautious option to select.

Jan has noticed that we do double unlock on some failure paths when offlining a page range. This is indeed the case when test_pages_in_a_zone respp. start_isolate_page_range fail. This was an omission when forward porting the debugging patch from an older kernel. Fix the issue by dropping mem_hotplug_done from the failure condition and keeping the single unlock in the catch all failure path.

Currently memory_failure() is racy against process's exiting, which results in kernel crash by null pointer dereference. The root cause is that memory_failure() uses force_sig() to forcibly kill asynchronous (meaning not in the current context) processes. As discussed in thread https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/6/8/236 years ago for OOM fixes, this is not a right thing to do. OOM solves this issue by using do_send_sig_info() as done in commit d2d39309 ("signal: oom_kill_task: use SEND_SIG_FORCED instead of force_sig()"), so this patch is suggesting to do the same for hwpoison. do_send_sig_info() properly accesses to siglock with lock_task_sighand(), so is free from the reported race. I confirmed that the reported bug reproduces with inserting some delay in kill_procs(), and it never reproduces with this patch. Note that memory_failure() can send another type of signal using force_sig_mceerr(), and the reported race shouldn't happen on it because force_sig_mceerr() is called only for synchronous processes (i.e. BUS_MCEERR_AR happens only when some process accesses to the corrupted memory.)
