When the VMA based swap readahead was introduced, a new knob
/sys/kernel/mm/swap/vma_ra_max_order
was added as the max window of VMA swap readahead. This is to make it
possible to use different max window for VMA based readahead and
original physical readahead. But Minchan Kim pointed out that this will
cause a regression because setting page-cluster sysctl to zero cannot
disable swap readahead with the change.
To fix the regression, the page-cluster sysctl is used as the max window
of both the VMA based swap readahead and original physical swap
readahead. If more fine grained control is needed in the future, more
knobs can be added as the subordinate knobs of the page-cluster sysctl.
The vma_ra_max_order knob is deleted. Because the knob was introduced
in v4.14-rc1, and this patch is targeting being merged before v4.14
releasing, there should be no existing users of this newly added ABI.

Loading the pmd without holding the pmd_lock exposes us to races with
concurrent updaters of the page tables but, worse still, it also allows
the compiler to cache the pmd value in a register and reuse it later on,
even if we've performed a READ_ONCE in between and seen a more recent
value.
In the case of page_vma_mapped_walk, this leads to the following crash
when the pmd loaded for the initial pmd_trans_huge check is all zeroes
and a subsequent valid table entry is loaded by check_pmd. We then
proceed into map_pte, but the compiler re-uses the zero entry inside
pte_offset_map, resulting in a junk pointer being installed in
pvmw->pte:
PC is at check_pte+0x20/0x170
LR is at page_vma_mapped_walk+0x2e0/0x540

This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that READ_ONCE is used before
the initial checks on the pmd, and this value is subsequently used when
checking whether or not the pmd is present. pmd_check is removed and
the pmd_present check is inlined directly.

inode->i_private is assigned by a Node pointer only after registering a
new binary format, so it could be NULL if inode was created by
bm_fill_super() (or iput() was called by the error path in
bm_register_write()), and this could result in NULL pointer dereference
when evicting such an inode. e.g. mount binfmt_misc filesystem then
umount it immediately:
mount -t binfmt_misc binfmt_misc /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
umount /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
will result in

When using FAT on a block device which supports rw_page, we can hit
BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page)) in try_to_free_buffers(). This is because we
call clean_buffers() after unlocking the page we've written. Introduce
a new clean_page_buffers() which cleans all buffers associated with a
page and call it from within bdev_write_page().

We have seen NULL-pointer dereference crashes in tty->disc_data when the
N_TTY fallback driver failed to open during hangup. The immediate cause
of this open to fail has been addressed in the preceding patch to
vmalloc(), but this code could be more robust.
As Alan pointed out in commit 8a8dabf2dd68 ("tty: handle the case where
we cannot restore a line discipline"), the N_TTY driver, historically
the safe fallback that could never fail, can indeed fail, but the
surrounding code is not prepared to handle this. To avoid crashes he
added a new N_NULL driver to take N_TTY's place as the last resort.
Hook that fallback up to the hangup path. Update tty_ldisc_reinit() to
reflect the reality that n_tty_open can indeed fail.

This reverts commits 5d17a73a2ebe ("vmalloc: back off when the current
task is killed") and 171012f56127 ("mm: don't warn when vmalloc() fails
due to a fatal signal").
Commit 5d17a73a2ebe ("vmalloc: back off when the current task is
killed") made all vmalloc allocations from a signal-killed task fail.
We have seen crashes in the tty driver from this, where a killed task
exiting tries to switch back to N_TTY, fails n_tty_open because of the
vmalloc failing, and later crashes when dereferencing tty->disc_data.
Arguably, relying on a vmalloc() call to succeed in order to properly
exit a task is not the most robust way of doing things. There will be a
follow-up patch to the tty code to fall back to the N_NULL ldisc.
But the justification to make that vmalloc() call fail like this isn't
convincing, either. The patch mentions an OOM victim exhausting the
memory reserves and thus deadlocking the machine. But the OOM killer is
only one, improbable source of fatal signals. It doesn't make sense to
fail allocations preemptively with plenty of memory in most cases.
The patch doesn't mention real-life instances where vmalloc sites would
exhaust memory, which makes it sound more like a theoretical issue to
begin with. But just in case, the OOM access to memory reserves has
been restricted on the allocator side in cd04ae1e2dc8 ("mm, oom: do not
rely on TIF_MEMDIE for memory reserves access"), which should take care
of any theoretical concerns on that front.
Revert this patch, and the follow-up that suppresses the allocation
warnings when we fail the allocations due to a signal.

cma_alloc() unconditionally prints an INFO message when the CMA
allocation fails. Make this message conditional on the non-presence of
__GFP_NOWARN in gfp_mask.
This patch aims at removing INFO messages that are displayed when the
VC4 driver tries to allocate buffer objects. From the driver
perspective an allocation failure is acceptable, and the driver can
possibly do something to make following allocation succeed (like
flushing the VC4 internal cache).

gcc on aarch64 may emit synbols of type 'n' if the kernel is built with
'-frecord-gcc-switches'. In most cases, those symbols are reported with
nm as
000000000000000e n $d
and with objdump as
0000000000000000 l d .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 .GCC.command.line
000000000000000e l .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 $d
Those symbols are detected in is_arm_mapping_symbol() and ignored.
However, if "--prefix-symbols=<prefix>" is configured as well, the
situation is different. For example, in efi/libstub, arm64 images are
built with
'--prefix-alloc-sections=.init --prefix-symbols=__efistub_'.
In combination with '-frecord-gcc-switches', the symbols are now reported
by nm as:
000000000000000e n __efistub_$d
and by objdump as:
0000000000000000 l d .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 .GCC.command.line
000000000000000e l .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 __efistub_$d
Those symbols are no longer ignored and included in the base address
calculation. This results in a base address of 000000000000000e, which
in turn causes kallsyms to abort with
kallsyms failure:
relative symbol value 0xffffff900800a000 out of range in relative mode
The problem is seen in little endian arm64 builds with CONFIG_EFI
enabled and with '-frecord-gcc-switches' set in KCFLAGS.
Explicitly ignore symbols of type 'n' since those are clearly debug
symbols.

I was stress testing some backports and with high load, after some time,
the latest version of the selftest showed some false positive in
connection with the uffdio_copy_retry. This seems to fix it while still
exercising -EEXIST in the background transfer once in a while.
The fork child will quit after the last UFFDIO_COPY is run, so a
repeated UFFDIO_COPY may not return -EEXIST. This change restricts the
-EEXIST stress to the background transfer where the memory can't go away
from under it.
Also updated uffdio_zeropage, so the interface is consistent.

When I execute numactl -H (which reads /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/cpumap
and displays cpumask_of_node for each node), I get different result
on X86 and arm64. For each numa node, the former only displayed online
CPUs, and the latter displayed all possible CPUs. Unfortunately, both
Linux documentation and numactl manual have not described it clear.
I sent a mail to ask for help, and Michal Hocko replied that he
preferred to print online cpus because it doesn't really make much sense
to bind anything on offline nodes.
Will said:
"I suspect the vast majority (if not all) code that reads this file was
developed for x86, so having the same behaviour for arm64 sounds like
something we should do ASAP before people try to special case with
things like #ifdef __aarch64__. I'd rather have this in 4.14 if
possible."

Commit 3a321d2a3dde ("mm: change the call sites of numa statistics

NUMA_INTERLEAVE_HIT call site wasn't updated to use the new interface.
So alloc_page_interleave() actually increments NR_ZONE_INACTIVE_FILE
instead of NUMA_INTERLEAVE_HIT.
Fix this by using __inc_numa_state() interface to increment

The pci-rcar driver is enabled for compile tests, and this has shown that
the driver cannot build without CONFIG_OF, following the inclusion of
commit f8f2fe7355fb ("PCI: rcar: Use new OF interrupt mapping when possible"):
drivers/pci/host/pcie-rcar.c: In function 'pci_dma_range_parser_init':
drivers/pci/host/pcie-rcar.c:1039:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'of_n_addr_cells' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
parser->pna = of_n_addr_cells(node);
^
As pointed out by Ben Dooks and Geert Uytterhoeven, this is actually
supposed to build fine, which we can achieve if we make the declaration
of of_irq_parse_and_map_pci conditional on CONFIG_OF and provide an
empty inline function otherwise, as we do for a lot of other of
interfaces.
This lets us build the rcar_pci driver again without CONFIG_OF for build
testing. All platforms using this driver select OF, so this doesn't
change anything for the users.

While registering nest imc at init, cpu-hotplug callback
nest_pmu_cpumask_init() makes an OPAL call to stop the engine. And if
the OPAL call fails, imc_common_cpuhp_mem_free() is invoked to cleanup
memory and cpuhotplug setup.
But when cleaning up the attribute group, we are dereferencing the
attribute element array without checking whether the backing element
is not NULL. This causes the kernel panic.
Add a check for the backing element prior to dereferencing the
attribute element, to handle the failing case gracefully.

There are two types of memory reservations firmware can ask the kernel
to make in the device tree: static and dynamic.
See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/reserved-memory/reserved-memory.txt
If you have greater than 16 entries in /reserved-memory (as we do on
POWER9 systems) you would get this scary looking error message:
[ 0.000000] OF: reserved mem: not enough space all defined regions.
This is harmless if all your reservations are static (which with OPAL on
POWER9, they are).
It is not harmless if you have any dynamic reservations after the 16th.
In the first pass over the fdt to find reservations, the child nodes of
/reserved-memory are added to a static array in of_reserved_mem.c so that
memory can be reserved in a 2nd pass. The array has 16 entries. This is why,
on my dual socket POWER9 system, I get that error 4 times with 20 static
reservations.
We don't have a problem on ppc though, as in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom.c
we look at the new style /reserved-ranges property to do reservations,
and this logic was introduced in 0962e8004e974 (well before any powernv
system shipped).
A Google search shows up no occurances of that exact error message, so we're
probably safe in that no machine that people use has memory not being reserved
when it should be.
The simple fix is to bump the length of the array to 32 which "should be
enough for everyone(TM)". The simple fix of not recording static allocations
in the array would cause problems for devices with "memory-region" properties.
A more future-proof fix is likely possible, although more invasive and this
simple fix is perfectly suitable in the meantime while a more future-proof
fix is developed.

Do not strdup() console options. It seems that the only reason for
it to be strdup()-ed was a compilation warning: printk, UART and
console drivers, for some reason, expect char pointer instead of
const char pointer. So we can just pass `of_stdout_options', but
need to cast it to char pointer. A better fix would be to change
printk, console drivers and UART to accept const char `options';
but that will take time - there are lots of drivers to update.
The patch also fixes a possible memory leak: add_preferred_console()
can fail, but we don't kfree() options.

Nest/core pmu units are enabled only when it is used. A reference count is
maintained for the events which uses the nest/core pmu units. Currently in
*_imc_counters_release function a WARN() is used for notification of any
underflow of ref count.
The case where event ref count hit a negative value is, when perf session is
started, followed by offlining of all cpus in a given core.
i.e. in cpuhotplug offline path ppc_core_imc_cpu_offline() function set the
ref->count to zero, if the current cpu which is about to offline is the last
cpu in a given core and make an OPAL call to disable the engine in that core.
And on perf session termination, perf->destroy (core_imc_counters_release) will
first decrement the ref->count for this core and based on the ref->count value
an opal call is made to disable the core-imc engine.
Now, since cpuhotplug path already clears the ref->count for core and disabled
the engine, perf->destroy() decrementing again at event termination make it
negative which in turn fires the WARN_ON. The same happens for nest units.
Add a check to see if the reference count is alreday zero, before decrementing
the count, so that the ref count will not hit a negative value.

When KVM emulates an exit from L2 to L1, it loads L1 CR4 into the
guest CR4. Before this CR4 loading, the guest CR4 refers to L2
CR4. Because these two CR4's are in different levels of guest, we
should vmx_set_cr4() rather than kvm_set_cr4() here. The latter, which
is used to handle guest writes to its CR4, checks the guest change to
CR4 and may fail if the change is invalid.
The failure may cause trouble. Consider we start
a L1 guest with non-zero L1 PCID in use,
(i.e. L1 CR4.PCIDE == 1 && L1 CR3.PCID != 0)
and
a L2 guest with L2 PCID disabled,
(i.e. L2 CR4.PCIDE == 0)
and following events may happen:
1. If kvm_set_cr4() is used in load_vmcs12_host_state() to load L1 CR4
into guest CR4 (in VMCS01) for L2 to L1 exit, it will fail because
of PCID check. As a result, the guest CR4 recorded in L0 KVM (i.e.
vcpu->arch.cr4) is left to the value of L2 CR4.
2. Later, if L1 attempts to change its CR4, e.g., clearing VMXE bit,
kvm_set_cr4() in L0 KVM will think L1 also wants to enable PCID,
because the wrong L2 CR4 is used by L0 KVM as L1 CR4. As L1
CR3.PCID != 0, L0 KVM will inject GP to L1 guest.

xfs_attr3_root_inactive() walks the attr fork tree to invalidate the
associated blocks. xfs_attr3_node_inactive() recursively descends
from internal blocks to leaf blocks, caching block address values
along the way to revisit parent blocks, locate the next entry and
descend down that branch of the tree.
The code that attempts to reread the parent block is unsafe because
it assumes that the local xfs_da_node_entry pointer remains valid
after an xfs_trans_brelse() and re-read of the parent buffer. Under
heavy memory pressure, it is possible that the buffer has been
reclaimed and reallocated by the time the parent block is reread.
This means that 'btree' can point to an invalid memory address, lead
to a random/garbage value for child_fsb and cause the subsequent
read of the attr fork to go off the rails and return a NULL buffer
for an attr fork offset that is most likely not allocated.
Note that this problem can be manufactured by setting
XFS_ATTR_BTREE_REF to 0 to prevent LRU caching of attr buffers,
creating a file with a multi-level attr fork and removing it to
trigger inactivation.
To address this problem, reinit the node/btree pointers to the
parent buffer after it has been re-read. This ensures btree points
to a valid record and allows the walk to proceed.
