      On 64 bit systems the agp_info struct has a 4 byte hole between
      ->agp_mode and ->aper_base.  We need to clear it to avoid disclosing
      stack information to userspace.

      fanotify: fix -EOVERFLOW with large files on 64-bit · 1e2ee49f
      Will Woods authored
      On 64-bit systems, O_LARGEFILE is automatically added to flags inside
      the open() syscall (also openat(), blkdev_open(), etc).  Userspace
      therefore defines O_LARGEFILE to be 0 - you can use it, but it's a
      no-op.  Everything should be O_LARGEFILE by default.
      
      But: when fanotify does create_fd() it uses dentry_open(), which skips
      all that.  And userspace can't set O_LARGEFILE in fanotify_init()
      because it's defined to 0.  So if fanotify gets an event regarding a
      large file, the read() will just fail with -EOVERFLOW.
      
      This patch adds O_LARGEFILE to fanotify_init()'s event_f_flags on 64-bit
      systems, using the same test as open()/openat()/etc.

      revert "mm: vmscan: do not swap anon pages just because free+file is low" · 62376251
      Johannes Weiner authored
      This reverts commit 0bf1457f ("mm: vmscan: do not swap anon pages
      just because free+file is low") because it introduced a regression in
      mostly-anonymous workloads, where reclaim would become ineffective and
      trap every allocating task in direct reclaim.
      
      The problem is that there is a runaway feedback loop in the scan balance
      between file and anon, where the balance tips heavily towards a tiny
      thrashing file LRU and anonymous pages are no longer being looked at.
      The commit in question removed the safe guard that would detect such
      situations and respond with forced anonymous reclaim.
      
      This commit was part of a series to fix premature swapping in loads with
      relatively little cache, and while it made a small difference, the cure
      is obviously worse than the disease.  Revert it.

      autofs: fix lockref lookup · 6b6751f7
      Ian Kent authored
      autofs needs to be able to see private data dentry flags for its dentrys
      that are being created but not yet hashed and for its dentrys that have
      been rmdir()ed but not yet freed.  It needs to do this so it can block
      processes in these states until a status has been returned to indicate
      the given operation is complete.
      
      It does this by keeping two lists, active and expring, of dentrys in
      this state and uses ->d_release() to keep them stable while it checks
      the reference count to determine if they should be used.
      
      But with the recent lockref changes dentrys being freed sometimes don't
      transition to a reference count of 0 before being freed so autofs can
      occassionally use a dentry that is invalid which can lead to a panic.

        1347                         BUG();
      
      After commit 0cd6144a ("mm + fs: prepare for non-page entries in
      page cache radix trees") this comment and BUG() are out of date because
      exceptional entries can now appear in all mappings - as shadows of
      recently evicted pages.
      
      However, as Hugh Dickins notes,
      
        "it is truly surprising for a PAGECACHE_TAG_WRITEBACK (and probably
         any other PAGECACHE_TAG_*) to appear on an exceptional entry.
      
         I expect it comes down to an occasional race in RCU lookup of the
         radix_tree: lacking absolute synchronization, we might sometimes
         catch an exceptional entry, with the tag which really belongs with
         the unexceptional entry which was there an instant before."
      
      And indeed, not only is the tree walk lockless, the tags are also read
      in chunks, one radix tree node at a time.  There is plenty of time for
      page reclaim to swoop in and replace a page that was already looked up
      as tagged with a shadow entry.
      
      Remove the BUG() and update the comment.  While reviewing all other
      lookup sites for whether they properly deal with shadow entries of
      evicted pages, update all the comments and fix memcg file charge moving
      to not miss shmem/tmpfs swapcache pages.

      mm/compaction: make isolate_freepages start at pageblock boundary · 49e068f0
      Vlastimil Babka authored
      The compaction freepage scanner implementation in isolate_freepages()
      starts by taking the current cc->free_pfn value as the first pfn.  In a
      for loop, it scans from this first pfn to the end of the pageblock, and
      then subtracts pageblock_nr_pages from the first pfn to obtain the first
      pfn for the next for loop iteration.
      
      This means that when cc->free_pfn starts at offset X rather than being
      aligned on pageblock boundary, the scanner will start at offset X in all
      scanned pageblock, ignoring potentially many free pages.  Currently this
      can happen when
      
       a) zone's end pfn is not pageblock aligned, or
      
       b) through zone->compact_cached_free_pfn with CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE
          enabled and a hole spanning the beginning of a pageblock
      
      This patch fixes the problem by aligning the initial pfn in
      isolate_freepages() to pageblock boundary.  This also permits replacing
      the end-of-pageblock alignment within the for loop with a simple
      pageblock_nr_pages increment.

      It is possible for "limit - setpoint + 1" to equal zero, after getting

      Using the fully 64 bit divide functions avoids this problem.  It also
      will cause pos_ratio_polynom() to return the correct value when
      (setpoint - limit) exceeds 2^32.

      hugetlb: ensure hugepage access is denied if hugepages are not supported · 457c1b27
      Nishanth Aravamudan authored
      Currently, I am seeing the following when I `mount -t hugetlbfs /none
      /dev/hugetlbfs`, and then simply do a `ls /dev/hugetlbfs`.  I think it's
      related to the fact that hugetlbfs is properly not correctly setting
      itself up in this state?:
      
        Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000031

        Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
        SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA pSeries
        ....
      
      In KVM guests on Power, in a guest not backed by hugepages, we see the
      following:
      
        AnonHugePages:         0 kB
        HugePages_Total:       0
        HugePages_Free:        0
        HugePages_Rsvd:        0
        HugePages_Surp:        0
        Hugepagesize:         64 kB
      
      HPAGE_SHIFT == 0 in this configuration, which indicates that hugepages
      are not supported at boot-time, but this is only checked in
      hugetlb_init().  Extract the check to a helper function, and use it in a
      few relevant places.
      
      This does make hugetlbfs not supported (not registered at all) in this
      environment.  I believe this is fine, as there are no valid hugepages
      and that won't change at runtime.

      slub: fix memcg_propagate_slab_attrs · 93030d83
      Vladimir Davydov authored
      After creating a cache for a memcg we should initialize its sysfs attrs
      with the values from its parent.  That's what memcg_propagate_slab_attrs
      is for.  Currently it's broken - we clearly muddled root-vs-memcg caches
      there.  Let's fix it up.

      posix_acl: handle NULL ACL in posix_acl_equiv_mode · 50c6e282
      Christoph Hellwig authored
      Various filesystems don't bother checking for a NULL ACL in
      posix_acl_equiv_mode, and thus can dereference a NULL pointer when it
      gets passed one. This usually happens from the NFS server, as the ACL tools
      never pass a NULL ACL, but instead of one representing the mode bits.
      
      Instead of adding boilerplat to all filesystems put this check into one place,
      which will allow us to remove the check from other filesystems as well later
      on.

      slab: Fix off by one in object max number tests. · 30321c7b
      David Miller authored
      If freelist_idx_t is a byte, SLAB_OBJ_MAX_NUM should be 255 not 256, and
      likewise if freelist_idx_t is a short, then it should be 65535 not
      65536.
      
      This was leading to all kinds of random crashes on sparc64 where
      PAGE_SIZE is 8192.  One problem shown was that if spinlock debugging was
      enabled, we'd get deadlocks in copy_pte_range() or do_wp_page() with the
      same cpu already holding a lock it shouldn't hold, or the lock belonging
      to a completely unrelated process.

      slab: fix the type of the index on freelist index accessor · 7cc68973
      Joonsoo Kim authored
      Commit a41adfaa ("slab: introduce byte sized index for the freelist
      of a slab") changes the size of freelist index and also changes
      prototype of accessor function to freelist index.  And there was a
      mistake.
      
      The mistake is that although it changes the size of freelist index
      correctly, it changes the size of the index of freelist index
      incorrectly.  With patch, freelist index can be 1 byte or 2 bytes, that
      means that num of object on on a slab can be more than 255.  So we need
      more than 1 byte for the index to find the index of free object on
      freelist.  But, above patch makes this index type 1 byte, so slab which
      have more than 255 objects cannot work properly and in consequence of
      it, the system cannot boot.
      
      This issue was reported by Steven King on m68knommu which would use
      2 bytes freelist index:
      
        https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/16/433
      
      To fix is easy.  To change the type of the index of freelist index on
      accessor functions is enough to fix this bug.  Although 2 bytes is
      enough, I use 4 bytes since it have no bad effect and make things more
      easier.  This fix was suggested and tested by Steven in his original
      report.

      Soren Brinkmann authored
      Under "heavy" RX load, the driver cannot handle the descriptors fast
      enough. In detail, when a descriptor is consumed, its used flag is
      cleared and once the RX budget is consumed all descriptors with a
      cleared used flag are prepared to receive more data. Under load though,
      the HW may constantly receive more data and use those descriptors with a
      cleared used flag before they are actually prepared for next usage.
      
      The head and tail pointers into the RX-ring should always be valid and
      we can omit clearing and checking of the used flag.

      net: macb: Re-enable RX interrupt only when RX is done · 02f7a34f
      Soren Brinkmann authored
      When data is received during the driver processing received data the
      NAPI is re-scheduled. In that case the RX interrupt should not be
      re-enabled.

      net: macb: Clear interrupt flags · 6a027b70
      Soren Brinkmann authored
      A few interrupt flags were not cleared in the ISR, resulting in a sytem
      trapped in the ISR in cases one of those interrupts occurred. Clear all
      flags to avoid such situations.
