Currently new_dst_cpu is prevented from being reselected actually, not dst_cpu. This can result in attempting to pull tasks to this_cpu twice.

Patch a003a2 (sched: Consider runnable load average in move_tasks()) sets all top-level cfs_rqs' h_load to rq->avg.load_avg_contrib, which is always 0. This mistype leads to all tasks having weight 0 when load balancing in a cpu-cgroup enabled setup. There obviously should be sum of weights of all runnable tasks there instead. Fix it.

In busiest->group_imb case we can come to fix_small_imbalance() with local->avg_load > busiest->avg_load. This can result in wrong imbalance fix-up, because there is the following check there where all the members are unsigned: if (busiest->avg_load - local->avg_load + scaled_busy_load_per_task >= (scaled_busy_load_per_task * imbn)) { env->imbalance = busiest->load_per_task; return; } As a result we can end up constantly bouncing tasks from one cpu to another if there are pinned tasks. Fix it by substituting the subtraction with an equivalent addition in the check.

In busiest->group_imb case we can come to calculate_imbalance() with local->avg_load >= busiest->avg_load >= sds->avg_load. This can result in imbalance overflow, because it is calculated as follows env->imbalance = min( max_pull * busiest->group_power, (sds->avg_load - local->avg_load) * local->group_power) / SCHED_POWER_SCALE; As a result we can end up constantly bouncing tasks from one cpu to another if there are pinned tasks. Fix this by skipping the assignment and assuming imbalance=0 in case local->avg_load > sds->avg_load.

Starting from v3.10 (probably commit f91e2590: "tty: Signal foreground group processes in hangup") disassociate_ctty() sends SIGCONT if tty && on_exit. This breaks LSB test-suite, in particular test8 in _exit.c and test40 in sigcon5.c. Put the "!on_exit" check back to restore the old behaviour. Review by Peter Hurley: "Yes, this regression was introduced by me in that commit. The effect of the regression is that ptys will receive a SIGCONT when, in similar circumstances, ttys would not. The fact that two test vectors accidentally tripped over this regression suggests that some other apps may as well.

Page tables in a read-only memory slot will currently cause a triple fault because the page walker uses gfn_to_hva and it fails on such a slot. OVMF uses such a page table; however, real hardware seems to be fine with that as long as the accessed/dirty bits are set. Save whether the slot is readonly, and later check it when updating the accessed and dirty bits.

Matt found that commit 27a7c642 ("partitions/efi: account for pmbr size in lba") caused his GPT formatted eMMC device not to boot. The reason is that this commit enforced Linux to always check the lesser of the whole disk or 2Tib for the pMBR size in LBA. While most disk partitioning tools out there create a pMBR with these characteristics, Microsoft does not, as it always sets the entry to the maximum 32-bit limitation - even though a drive may be smaller than that[1]. Loosen this check and only verify that the size is either the whole disk or 0xFFFFFFFF. No tool in its right mind would set it to any value other than these.

Linus Torvalds authored
The LRU list changes interacted badly with our nr_dentry_unused accounting, and even worse with the new DCACHE_LRU_LIST bit logic. This introduces helper functions to make sure everything follows the proper dcache d_lru list rules: the dentry cache is complicated by the fact that some of the hotpaths don't even want to look at the LRU list at all, and the fact that we use the same list entry in the dentry for both the LRU list and for our temporary shrinking lists when removing things from the LRU. The helper functions temporarily have some extra sanity checking for the flag bits that have to match the current LRU state of the dentry. We'll remove that before the final 3.12 release, but considering how easy it is to get wrong, this first cleanup version has some very particular sanity checking.

When reading a single page with cifs_readpage(), we make a call to fscache_read_or_alloc_page() which once done, asynchronously calls the completion function cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete(). This completion function unlocks the page once it has been populated from cache. The module then attempts to unlock the page a second time in cifs_readpage() which leads to warning messages. In case of a successful call to fscache_read_or_alloc_page() we should skip the second unlock_page() since this will be called by the cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete() once the page has been populated by fscache. With the modifications to cifs_readpage_worker(), we will need to re-grab the page lock in cifs_write_begin(). The problem was first noticed when testing new fscache patches for cifs. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1005737Signed-off-by: Sachin Prabhu <sprabhu@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com>
