      Merge tag 'v3.12' into drm-intel-next · 7f16e5c1
      Daniel Vetter authored
      I want to merge in the new Broadwell support as a late hw enabling
      pull request. But since the internal branch was based upon our
      drm-intel-nightly integration branch I need to resolve all the
      oustanding conflicts in drm/i915 with a backmerge to make the 60+
      patches apply properly.
      
      We'll propably have some fun because Linus will come up with a
      slightly different merge solution.
      
      Conflicts:
      	drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_dma.c
      	drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_drv.c
      	drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_crt.c
      	drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_ddi.c
      	drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_display.c
      	drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_dp.c
      	drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_drv.h
      
      All rather simple adjacent lines changed or partial backports from
      -next to -fixes, with the exception of the thaw code in i915_dma.c.
      That one needed a bit of shuffling to restore the intent.
      
      Oh and the massive header file reordering in intel_drv.h is a bit
      trouble. But not much.
      
      v2: Also don't forget the fixup for the silent conflict that results
      in compile fail ...

      lib/scatterlist.c: don't flush_kernel_dcache_page on slab page · 3d77b50c
      Ming Lei authored
      Commit b1adaf65 ("[SCSI] block: add sg buffer copy helper
      functions") introduces two sg buffer copy helpers, and calls
      flush_kernel_dcache_page() on pages in SG list after these pages are
      written to.
      
      Unfortunately, the commit may introduce a potential bug:
      
       - Before sending some SCSI commands, kmalloc() buffer may be passed to
         block layper, so flush_kernel_dcache_page() can see a slab page
         finally
      
       - According to cachetlb.txt, flush_kernel_dcache_page() is only called
         on "a user page", which surely can't be a slab page.
      
       - ARCH's implementation of flush_kernel_dcache_page() may use page
         mapping information to do optimization so page_mapping() will see the
         slab page, then VM_BUG_ON() is triggered.
      
      Aaro Koskinen reported the bug on ARM/kirkwood when DEBUG_VM is enabled,
      and this patch fixes the bug by adding test of '!PageSlab(miter->page)'
      before calling flush_kernel_dcache_page().

      mm: memcg: fix test for child groups · 696ac172
      Johannes Weiner authored
      When memcg code needs to know whether any given memcg has children, it
      uses the cgroup child iteration primitives and returns true/false
      depending on whether the iteration loop is executed at least once or
      not.
      
      Because a cgroup's list of children is RCU protected, these primitives
      require the RCU read-lock to be held, which is not the case for all
      memcg callers.  This results in the following splat when e.g.  enabling
      hierarchy mode:
      
        WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 1 at kernel/cgroup.c:3043 css_next_child+0xa3/0x160()

      In the memcg case, we only care about children when we are attempting to
      modify inheritable attributes interactively.  Racing with deletion could
      mean a spurious -EBUSY, no problem.  Racing with addition is handled
      just fine as well through the memcg_create_mutex: if the child group is
      not on the list after the mutex is acquired, it won't be initialized
      from the parent's attributes until after the unlock.

      The memcg OOM lock is a mutex-type lock that is open-coded due to
      memcg's special needs.  Add annotations for lockdep coverage.

      mm: memcg: use proper memcg in limit bypass · 3168ecbe
      Johannes Weiner authored
      Commit 84235de3 ("fs: buffer: move allocation failure loop into the
      allocator") allowed __GFP_NOFAIL allocations to bypass the limit if they
      fail to reclaim enough memory for the charge.  But because the main test
      case was on a 3.2-based system, the patch missed the fact that on newer
      kernels the charge function needs to return root_mem_cgroup when
      bypassing the limit, and not NULL.  This will corrupt whatever memory is
      at NULL + percpu pointer offset.  Fix this quickly before problems are
      reported.

      vfs: decrapify dput(), fix cache behavior under normal load · 358eec18
      Linus Torvalds authored
      We do not want to dirty the dentry->d_flags cacheline in dput() just to
      set the DCACHE_REFERENCED flag when it is already set in the common case
      anyway.  This way the first cacheline of the dentry (which contains the
      RCU lookup information etc) can stay shared among multiple CPU's.
      
      This finishes off some of the details of all the scalability patches
      merged during the merge window.
      
      Also don't mark dentry_kill() for inlining, since it's the uncommon path
      and inlining it just makes the common path slower due to extra function
      entry/exit overhead.

      Pull NUMA balancing memory corruption fixes from Ingo Molnar:
       "So these fixes are definitely not something I'd like to sit on, but as
        I said to Mel at the KS the timing is quite tight, with Linus planning
        v3.12-final within a week.
      
        Fedora-19 is affected:
      
         comet:~> grep NUMA_BALANCING /boot/config-3.11.3-201.fc19.x86_64

         CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING_DEFAULT_ENABLED=y
         CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=y
      
        AFAICS Ubuntu will be affected as well, once it updates the kernel:
      
         hubble:~> grep NUMA_BALANCING /boot/config-3.8.0-32-generic

         CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=y
      
        These 6 commits are a minimalized set of cherry-picks needed to fix
        the memory corruption bugs.  All commits are fixes, except "mm: numa:
        Sanitize task_numa_fault() callsites" which is a cleanup that made two
        followup fixes simpler.
      
        I've done targeted testing with just this SHA1 to try to make sure
        there are no cherry-picking artifacts.  The original non-cherry-picked
        set of fixes were exposed to linux-next for a couple of weeks"
