      lkdtm: Add read/write after free tests for buddy memory · 920d451f
      Laura Abbott authored
      The current tests for read/write after free work on slab
      allocated memory. Memory straight from the buddy allocator
      may behave slightly differently and have a different set
      of parameters to test. Add tests for those cases as well.
      
      On a basic x86 boot:
      
       # echo WRITE_BUDDY_AFTER_FREE > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
      [   22.291950] lkdtm: Performing direct entry WRITE_BUDDY_AFTER_FREE

      [   32.383854] lkdtm: Attempting to read from freed memory
      [   32.389309] lkdtm: Buddy page was not poisoned
      
      On x86 with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and debug_pagealloc=on:
      
       # echo WRITE_BUDDY_AFTER_FREE > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
      [   17.475533] lkdtm: Performing direct entry WRITE_BUDDY_AFTER_FREE
      [   17.477360] lkdtm: Writing to the buddy page before free

      Note that arches without ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC may not
      produce the same crash.

      lkdtm: Update WRITE_AFTER_FREE test · 250a8988
      Laura Abbott authored
      The SLUB allocator may use the first word of a freed block to store the
      freelist information. This may make it harder to test poisoning
      features. Change the WRITE_AFTER_FREE test to better match what
      the READ_AFTER_FREE test does and also print out a big more information.

      sparc32: Add -Wa,-Av8 to KBUILD_CFLAGS. · 22be3b10
      David S. Miller authored
      Binutils used to be (erroneously) extremely permissive about
      instruction usage.  But that got fixed and if you don't properly tell
      it to accept classes of instructions it will fail.
      
      This uncovered a specs bug on sparc in gcc where it wouldn't pass the
      proper options to binutils options.
      
      Deal with this in the kernel build by adding -Wa,-Av8 to KBUILD_CFLAGS.

      hpfs: don't truncate the file when delete fails · b6853f78
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      The delete opration can allocate additional space on the HPFS filesystem
      due to btree split. The HPFS driver checks in advance if there is
      available space, so that it won't corrupt the btree if we run out of space
      during splitting.
      
      If there is not enough available space, the HPFS driver attempted to
      truncate the file, but this results in a deadlock since the commit
      7dd29d8d ("HPFS: Introduce a global mutex
      and lock it on every callback from VFS").
      
      This patch removes the code that tries to truncate the file and -ENOSPC is
      returned instead. If the user hits -ENOSPC on delete, he should try to
      delete other files (that are stored in a leaf btree node), so that the
      delete operation will make some space for deleting the file stored in
      non-leaf btree node.

      ext2, ext4: fix issue with missing journal entry in ext4_dax_mkwrite() · 1e9d180b
      Ross Zwisler authored
      As it is currently written ext4_dax_mkwrite() assumes that the call into
      __dax_mkwrite() will not have to do a block allocation so it doesn't create
      a journal entry.  For a read that creates a zero page to cover a hole
      followed by a write that actually allocates storage this is incorrect.  The
      ext4_dax_mkwrite() -> __dax_mkwrite() -> __dax_fault() path calls
      get_blocks() to allocate storage.
      
      Fix this by having the ->page_mkwrite fault handler call ext4_dax_fault()
      as this function already has all the logic needed to allocate a journal
      entry and call __dax_fault().
      
      Also update the ext2 fault handlers in this same way to remove duplicate
      code and keep the logic between ext2 and ext4 the same.

      dax: move writeback calls into the filesystems · 7f6d5b52
      Ross Zwisler authored
      Previously calls to dax_writeback_mapping_range() for all DAX filesystems
      (ext2, ext4 & xfs) were centralized in filemap_write_and_wait_range().
      
      dax_writeback_mapping_range() needs a struct block_device, and it used
      to get that from inode->i_sb->s_bdev.  This is correct for normal inodes
      mounted on ext2, ext4 and XFS filesystems, but is incorrect for DAX raw
      block devices and for XFS real-time files.
      
      Instead, call dax_writeback_mapping_range() directly from the filesystem
      ->writepages function so that it can supply us with a valid block
      device.  This also fixes DAX code to properly flush caches in response
      to sync(2).

      dax: give DAX clearing code correct bdev · 20a90f58
      Ross Zwisler authored
      dax_clear_blocks() needs a valid struct block_device and previously it
      was using inode->i_sb->s_bdev in all cases.  This is correct for normal
      inodes on mounted ext2, ext4 and XFS filesystems, but is incorrect for
      DAX raw block devices and for XFS real-time devices.
      
      Instead, rename dax_clear_blocks() to dax_clear_sectors(), and change
      its arguments to take a bdev and a sector instead of an inode and a
      block.  This better reflects what the function does, and it allows the
      filesystem and raw block device code to pass in an appropriate struct
      block_device.

      ext4: online defrag not supported with DAX · 73f34a5e
      Ross Zwisler authored
      Online defrag operations for ext4 are hard coded to use the page cache.
      See ext4_ioctl() -> ext4_move_extents() -> move_extent_per_page()
      
      When combined with DAX I/O, which circumvents the page cache, this can
      result in data corruption.  This was observed with xfstests ext4/307 and
      ext4/308.
      
      Fix this by only allowing online defrag for non-DAX files.

      ext2, ext4: only set S_DAX for regular inodes · 0a6cf913
      Ross Zwisler authored
      When S_DAX is set on an inode we assume that if there are pages attached
      to the mapping (mapping->nrpages != 0), those pages are clean zero pages
      that were used to service reads from holes.  Any dirty data associated
      with the inode should be in the form of DAX exceptional entries
      (mapping->nrexceptional) that is written back via
      dax_writeback_mapping_range().
      
      With the current code, though, this isn't always true.  For example,
      ext2 and ext4 directory inodes can have S_DAX set, but have their dirty
      data stored as dirty page cache entries.  For these types of inodes,
      having S_DAX set doesn't really make sense since their I/O doesn't
      actually happen through the DAX code path.
      
      Instead, only allow S_DAX to be set for regular inodes for ext2 and
      ext4.  This allows us to have strict DAX vs non-DAX paths in the
      writeback code.

      drivers: char: random: add get_random_long() · ec9ee4ac
      Daniel Cashman authored
      Commit d07e2259 ("mm: mmap: add new /proc tunable for mmap_base
      ASLR") added the ability to choose from a range of values to use for
      entropy count in generating the random offset to the mmap_base address.
      
      The maximum value on this range was set to 32 bits for 64-bit x86
      systems, but this value could be increased further, requiring more than
      the 32 bits of randomness provided by get_random_int(), as is already
      possible for arm64.  Add a new function: get_random_long() which more
      naturally fits with the mmap usage of get_random_int() but operates
      exactly the same as get_random_int().
      
      Also, fix the shifting constant in mmap_rnd() to be an unsigned long so
      that values greater than 31 bits generate an appropriate mask without
      overflow.  This is especially important on x86, as its shift instruction
      uses a 5-bit mask for the shift operand, which meant that any value for
      mmap_rnd_bits over 31 acts as a no-op and effectively disables mmap_base
      randomization.
      
      Finally, replace calls to get_random_int() with get_random_long() where
      appropriate.
      
      This patch (of 2):
      
      Add get_random_long().

      Commit 4167e9b2 ("mm: remove GFP_THISNODE") removed the GFP_THISNODE

      alloc_misplaced_dst_page() was one such user after changes made by
      commit e97ca8e5 ("mm: fix GFP_THISNODE callers and clarify").
      
      Unfortunately when GFP_THISNODE was removed, users of
      alloc_misplaced_dst_page() started waking kswapd and entering direct
      reclaim because the wrong GFP flags are cleared.  The consequence is
      that workloads that used to fit into memory now get reclaimed which is
      addressed by this patch.
      
      The problem can be demonstrated with "mutilate" that exercises memcached
      which is software dedicated to memory object caching.  The configuration
      uses 80% of memory and is run 3 times for varying numbers of clients.

      reclaim and kswapd activity.  The figures are aggregate but it's known
      that the bad activity is throughout the entire test.
      
      Note that simple streaming anon/file memory consumers also see this
      problem but it's not as obvious.  In those cases, kswapd is awake when
      it should not be.
      
      As there are at least two reclaim-related bugs out there, it's worth
      spelling out the user-visible impact.  This patch only addresses bugs
      related to excessive reclaim on NUMA hardware when the working set is
      larger than a NUMA node.  There is a bug related to high kswapd CPU
      usage but the reports are against laptops and other UMA hardware and is
      not addressed by this patch.

      mm: thp: fix SMP race condition between THP page fault and MADV_DONTNEED · ad33bb04
      Andrea Arcangeli authored
      pmd_trans_unstable()/pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() were
      introduced to locklessy (but atomically) detect when a pmd is a regular
      (stable) pmd or when the pmd is unstable and can infinitely transition
      from pmd_none() and pmd_trans_huge() from under us, while only holding
      the mmap_sem for reading (for writing not).
      
      While holding the mmap_sem only for reading, MADV_DONTNEED can run from
      under us and so before we can assume the pmd to be a regular stable pmd
      we need to compare it against pmd_none() and pmd_trans_huge() in an
      atomic way, with pmd_trans_unstable().  The old pmd_trans_huge() left a
      tiny window for a race.
      
      Useful applications are unlikely to notice the difference as doing
      MADV_DONTNEED concurrently with a page fault would lead to undefined
      behavior.

      PCI: mvebu: Restrict build to 32-bit ARM · 61d9e854
      Thierry Reding authored
      This driver uses PCI glue that is only available on 32-bit ARM.  This used
      to work fine as long as ARCH_MVEBU and ARCH_DOVE were exclusively 32-bit,
      but there's a patch in the pipe to make ARCH_MVEBU also available on 64-bit
      ARM.

      Revert "PCI, x86: Implement pcibios_alloc_irq() and pcibios_free_irq()" · 6c777e87
      Bjorn Helgaas authored
      991de2e5 ("PCI, x86: Implement pcibios_alloc_irq() and
      pcibios_free_irq()") appeared in v4.3 and helps support IOAPIC hotplug.
      
      Олег reported that the Elcus-1553 TA1-PCI driver worked in v4.2 but not
      v4.3 and bisected it to 991de2e5.  Sunjin reported that the RocketRAID
      272x driver worked in v4.2 but not v4.3.  In both cases booting with
      "pci=routirq" is a workaround.
      
      I think the problem is that after 991de2e5, we no longer call
      pcibios_enable_irq() for upstream bridges.  Prior to 991de2e5, when a
      driver called pci_enable_device(), we recursively called
      pcibios_enable_irq() for upstream bridges via pci_enable_bridge().
      
      After 991de2e5, we call pcibios_enable_irq() from pci_device_probe()
      instead of the pci_enable_device() path, which does *not* call
      pcibios_enable_irq() for upstream bridges.
      
      Revert 991de2e5 to fix these driver regressions.
