Xuan Qi reports that the Linux NFSv4 client failed to lock a file that was migrated. The steps he observed on the wire: 1. The client sent a LOCK request to the source server 2. The source server replied NFS4ERR_MOVED 3. The client switched to the destination server 4. The client sent the same LOCK request to the destination server with a bumped lock sequence ID 5. The destination server rejected the LOCK request with NFS4ERR_BAD_SEQID RFC 3530 section 8.1.5 provides a list of NFS errors which do not bump a lock sequence ID. However, RFC 3530 is now obsoleted by RFC 7530. In RFC 7530 section 9.1.7, this list has been updated by the addition of NFS4ERR_MOVED.

Commit 7bd509e3 ("bpf: add prog_digest and expose it via fdinfo/netlink") was recently discussed, partially due to admittedly suboptimal name of "prog_digest" in combination with sha1 hash usage, thus inevitably and rightfully concerns about its security in terms of collision resistance were raised with regards to use-cases. The intended use cases are for debugging resp. introspection only for providing a stable "tag" over the instruction sequence that both kernel and user space can calculate independently. It's not usable at all for making a security relevant decision. So collisions where two different instruction sequences generate the same tag can happen, but ideally at a rather low rate. The "tag" will be dumped in hex and is short enough to introspect in tracepoints or kallsyms output along with other data such as stack trace, etc. Thus, this patch performs a rename into prog_tag and truncates the tag to a short output (64 bits) to make it obvious it's not collision-free. Should in future a hash or facility be needed with a security relevant focus, then we can think about requirements, constraints, etc that would fit to that situation. For now, rework the exposed parts for the current use cases as long as nothing has been released yet. Tested on x86_64 and s390x.

Mathieu reported that the LTTNG modules are broken as of 4.10-rc1 due to the removal of the cpu hotplug notifiers. Usually I don't care much about out of tree modules, but LTTNG is widely used in distros. There are two ways to solve that: 1) Reserve a hotplug state for LTTNG 2) Add a dynamic range for the prepare states. While #1 is the simplest solution, #2 is the proper one as we can convert in tree users, which do not care about ordering, to the dynamic range as well. Add a dynamic range which allows LTTNG to request states in the prepare stage.

The current preemptible RCU implementation goes through three phases during bootup. In the first phase, there is only one CPU that is running with preemption disabled, so that a no-op is a synchronous grace period. In the second mid-boot phase, the scheduler is running, but RCU has not yet gotten its kthreads spawned (and, for expedited grace periods, workqueues are not yet running. During this time, any attempt to do a synchronous grace period will hang the system (or complain bitterly, depending). In the third and final phase, RCU is fully operational and everything works normally. This has been OK for some time, but there has recently been some synchronous grace periods showing up during the second mid-boot phase. This code worked "by accident" for awhile, but started failing as soon as expedited RCU grace periods switched over to workqueues in commit 8b355e3b ("rcu: Drive expedited grace periods from workqueue"). Note that the code was buggy even before this commit, as it was subject to failure on real-time systems that forced all expedited grace periods to run as normal grace periods (for example, using the rcu_normal ksysfs parameter). The callchain from the failure case is as follows: early_amd_iommu_init() |-> acpi_put_table(ivrs_base); |-> acpi_tb_put_table(table_desc); |-> acpi_tb_invalidate_table(table_desc); |-> acpi_tb_release_table(...) |-> acpi_os_unmap_memory |-> acpi_os_unmap_iomem |-> acpi_os_map_cleanup |-> synchronize_rcu_expedited The kernel showing this callchain was built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y, which caused the code to try using workqueues before they were initialized, which did not go well. This commit therefore reworks RCU to permit synchronous grace periods to proceed during this mid-boot phase. This commit is therefore a fix to a regression introduced in v4.9, and is therefore being put forward post-merge-window in v4.10. This commit sets a flag from the existing rcu_scheduler_starting() function which causes all synchronous grace periods to take the expedited path. The expedited path now checks this flag, using the requesting task to drive the expedited grace period forward during the mid-boot phase. Finally, this flag is updated by a core_initcall() function named rcu_exp_runtime_mode(), which causes the runtime codepaths to be used. Note that this arrangement assumes that tasks are not sent POSIX signals (or anything similar) from the time that the first task is spawned through core_initcall() time.

Some machines, such as the Lenovo ThinkPad W541 with firmware GNET80WW (2.28), include memory map entries with phys_addr=0x0 and num_pages=0. These machines fail to boot after the following commit, commit 8e80632f ("efi/esrt: Use efi_mem_reserve() and avoid a kmalloc()") Fix this by removing such bogus entries from the memory map. Furthermore, currently the log output for this case (with efi=debug) looks like: [ 0.000000] efi: mem45: [Reserved | | | | | | | | | | | | ] range=[0x0000000000000000-0xffffffffffffffff] (0MB) This is clearly wrong, and also not as informative as it could be. This patch changes it so that if we find obviously invalid memory map entries, we print an error and skip those entries. It also detects the display of the address range calculation overflow, so the new output is: [ 0.000000] efi: [Firmware Bug]: Invalid EFI memory map entries: [ 0.000000] efi: mem45: [Reserved | | | | | | | | | | | | ] range=[0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000000] (invalid) It also detects memory map sizes that would overflow the physical address, for example phys_addr=0xfffffffffffff000 and num_pages=0x0200000000000001, and prints: [ 0.000000] efi: [Firmware Bug]: Invalid EFI memory map entries: [ 0.000000] efi: mem45: [Reserved | | | | | | | | | | | | ] range=[phys_addr=0xfffffffffffff000-0x20ffffffffffffffff] (invalid) It then removes these entries from the memory map.

It's possible to set up PEBS events to get only errors and not any data, like on SNB-X (model 45) and IVB-EP (model 62) via 2 perf commands running simultaneously: taskset -c 1 ./perf record -c 4 -e branches:pp -j any -C 10 This leads to a soft lock up, because the error path of the intel_pmu_drain_pebs_nhm() does not account event->hw.interrupt for error PEBS interrupts, so in case you're getting ONLY errors you don't have a way to stop the event when it's over the max_samples_per_tick limit: NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#22 stuck for 22s!

IOW, reuse_swap_page can reuse the page without waiting writeback completion so it can overwrite page zram is compressing. Unfortunately, zram has used per-cpu stream feature from v4.7. It aims for increasing cache hit ratio of scratch buffer for compressing. Downside of that approach is that zram should ask memory space for compressed page in per-cpu context which requires stricted gfp flag which could be failed. If so, it retries to allocate memory space out of per-cpu context so it could get memory this time and compress the data again, copies it to the memory space. In this scenario, zram assumes the data should never be changed but it is not true unless stable page supports. So, If the data is changed under us, zram can make buffer overrun because second compression size could be bigger than one we got in previous trial and blindly, copy bigger size object to smaller buffer which is buffer overrun. The overrun breaks zsmalloc free object chaining so system goes crash like above. I think below is same problem. https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997574 Unfortunately, reuse_swap_page should be atomic so that we cannot wait on writeback in there so the approach in this patch is simply return false if we found it needs stable page. Although it increases memory footprint temporarily, it happens rarely and it should be reclaimed easily althoug it happened. Also, It would be better than waiting of IO completion, which is critial path for application latency.

This patch does two things. First it goes through and renames the __page_frag prefixed functions to __page_frag_cache so that we can be clear that we are draining or refilling the cache, not the frags themselves. Second we drop the order parameter from __page_frag_cache_drain since we don't actually need to pass it since all fragments are either order 0 or must be a compound page.

Patch series "Page fragment updates", v4. This patch series takes care of a few cleanups for the page fragments API. First we do some renames so that things are much more consistent. First we move the page_frag_ portion of the name to the front of the functions names. Secondly we split out the cache specific functions from the other page fragment functions by adding the word "cache" to the name. Finally I added a bit of documentation that will hopefully help to explain some of this. I plan to revisit this later as we get things more ironed out in the near future with the changes planned for the DMA setup to support eXpress Data Path. This patch (of 3): This patch renames the page frag functions to be more consistent with other APIs. Specifically we place the name page_frag first in the name and then have either an alloc or free call name that we append as the suffix. This makes it a bit clearer in terms of naming. In addition we drop the leading double underscores since we are technically no longer a backing interface and instead the front end that is called from the networking APIs.

Further debugging has shown that the reclaim cannot make any forward progress because the page cache is hidden in the active list which doesn't get rotated because inactive_list_is_low is not memcg aware. The code simply subtracts per-zone highmem counters from the respective memcg's lru sizes which doesn't make any sense. We can simply end up always seeing the resulting active and inactive counts 0 and return false. This issue is not limited to 32b kernels but in practice the effect on systems without CONFIG_HIGHMEM would be much harder to notice because we do not invoke the OOM killer for allocations requests targeting < ZONE_NORMAL. Fix the issue by tracking per zone lru page counts in mem_cgroup_per_node and subtract per-memcg highmem counts when memcg is enabled. Introduce helper lruvec_zone_lru_size which redirects to either zone counters or mem_cgroup_get_zone_lru_size when appropriate. We are losing empty LRU but non-zero lru size detection introduced by ca707239 ("mm: update_lru_size warn and reset bad lru_size") because of the inherent zone vs. node discrepancy.

Since commit 00cd5c37 ("ptrace: permit ptracing of /sbin/init") we can now trace init processes. init is initially protected with SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE which will prevent fatal signals such as SIGSTOP, but there are a number of paths during tracing where SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE can be implicitly cleared. This can result in init becoming stoppable/killable after tracing. For example, running: while true; do kill -STOP 1; done & strace -p 1 and then stopping strace and the kill loop will result in init being left in state TASK_STOPPED. Sending SIGCONT to init will resume it, but init will now respond to future SIGSTOP signals rather than ignoring them. Make sure that when setting SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED/SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED that we don't clear SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE.

The flag was introduced by commit 78afd561 ("mm: add __GFP_OTHER_NODE flag") to allow proper accounting of remote node allocations done by kernel daemons on behalf of a process - e.g. khugepaged. After "mm: fix remote numa hits statistics" we do not need and actually use the flag so we can safely remove it because all allocations which are satisfied from their "home" node are accounted properly.

It, however, points to another problem, that SLUB defines KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE too large because the its KMALLOC_SHIFT_MAX is (MAX_ORDER + PAGE_SHIFT) which means that the resulting page allocator request might be MAX_ORDER which is too large (see __alloc_pages_slowpath). The same applies to the SLOB allocator which allows even larger sizes. Make sure that they are capped properly and never request more than MAX_ORDER order.

Currently dax_mapping_entry_mkclean() fails to clean and write protect the pmd_t of a DAX PMD entry during an *sync operation. This can result in data loss in the following sequence: 1) mmap write to DAX PMD, dirtying PMD radix tree entry and making the pmd_t dirty and writeable 2) fsync, flushing out PMD data and cleaning the radix tree entry. We currently fail to mark the pmd_t as clean and write protected. 3) more mmap writes to the PMD. These don't cause any page faults since the pmd_t is dirty and writeable. The radix tree entry remains clean. 4) fsync, which fails to flush the dirty PMD data because the radix tree entry was clean. 5) crash - dirty data that should have been fsync'd as part of 4) could still have been in the processor cache, and is lost. Fix this by marking the pmd_t clean and write protected in dax_mapping_entry_mkclean(), which is called as part of the fsync operation 2). This will cause the writes in step 3) above to generate page faults where we'll re-dirty the PMD radix tree entry, resulting in flushes in the fsync that happens in step 4).

The GRO fast path caches the frag0 address. This address becomes invalid if frag0 is modified by pskb_may_pull or its variants. So whenever that happens we must disable the frag0 optimization. This is usually done through the combination of gro_header_hard and gro_header_slow, however, the IPv6 extension header path did the pulling directly and would continue to use the GRO fast path incorrectly. This patch fixes it by disabling the fast path when we enter the IPv6 extension header path.

Several people report seeing warnings about inconsistent radix tree nodes followed by crashes in the workingset code, which all looked like use-after-free access from the shadow node shrinker. Dave Jones managed to reproduce the issue with a debug patch applied, which confirmed that the radix tree shrinking indeed frees shadow nodes while they are still linked to the shadow LRU: WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 53 at lib/radix-tree.c:643 delete_node+0x1e4/0x200 CPU: 2 PID: 53 Comm: kswapd0 Not tainted 4.10.0-rc2-think+ #3 Call Trace: delete_node+0x1e4/0x200 __radix_tree_delete_node+0xd/0x10 shadow_lru_isolate+0xe6/0x220 __list_lru_walk_one.isra.4+0x9b/0x190 list_lru_walk_one+0x23/0x30 scan_shadow_nodes+0x2e/0x40 shrink_slab.part.44+0x23d/0x5d0 shrink_node+0x22c/0x330 kswapd+0x392/0x8f0 This is the WARN_ON_ONCE(!list_empty(&node->private_list)) placed in the inlined radix_tree_shrink(). The problem is with 14b46879 ("mm: workingset: move shadow entry tracking to radix tree exceptional tracking"), which passes an update callback into the radix tree to link and unlink shadow leaf nodes when tree entries change, but forgot to pass the callback when reclaiming a shadow node. While the reclaimed shadow node itself is unlinked by the shrinker, its deletion from the tree can cause the left-most leaf node in the tree to be shrunk. If that happens to be a shadow node as well, we don't unlink it from the LRU as we should. Consider this tree, where the s are shadow entries: root->rnode | [0 n] | | [s ] [sssss] Now the shadow node shrinker reclaims the rightmost leaf node through the shadow node LRU: root->rnode | [0 ] | [s ] Because the parent of the deleted node is the first level below the root and has only one child in the left-most slot, the intermediate level is shrunk and the node containing the single shadow is put in its place: root->rnode | [s ] The shrinker again sees a single left-most slot in a first level node and thus decides to store the shadow in root->rnode directly and free the node - which is a leaf node on the shadow node LRU. root->rnode | s Without the update callback, the freed node remains on the shadow LRU, where it causes later shrinker runs to crash. Pass the node updater callback into __radix_tree_delete_node() in case the deletion causes the left-most branch in the tree to collapse too. Also add warnings when linked nodes are freed right away, rather than wait for the use-after-free when the list is scanned much later.

With the following commit: 4bc9f92e ("x86/efi-bgrt: Use efi_mem_reserve() to avoid copying image data") ... efi_bgrt_init() calls into the memblock allocator through efi_mem_reserve() => efi_arch_mem_reserve() *after* mm_init() has been called. Indeed, KASAN reports a bad read access later on in efi_free_boot_services(): BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in efi_free_boot_services+0xae/0x24c at addr ffff88022de12740 Read of size 4 by task swapper/0/0 page:ffffea0008b78480 count:0 mapcount:-127 mapping: (null) index:0x1 flags: 0x5fff8000000000() [...] Call Trace: dump_stack+0x68/0x9f kasan_report_error+0x4c8/0x500 kasan_report+0x58/0x60 __asan_load4+0x61/0x80 efi_free_boot_services+0xae/0x24c start_kernel+0x527/0x562 x86_64_start_reservations+0x24/0x26 x86_64_start_kernel+0x157/0x17a start_cpu+0x5/0x14 The instruction at the given address is the first read from the memmap's memory, i.e. the read of md->type in efi_free_boot_services(). Note that the writes earlier in efi_arch_mem_reserve() don't splat because they're done through early_memremap()ed addresses. So, after memblock is gone, allocations should be done through the "normal" page allocator. Introduce a helper, efi_memmap_alloc() for this. Use it from efi_arch_mem_reserve(), efi_free_boot_services() and, for the sake of consistency, from efi_fake_memmap() as well. Note that for the latter, the memmap allocations cease to be page aligned. This isn't needed though.

So they can figure out what is the optimal number of pages that can be contingously stitched together without fear of bounce buffer. We also expose an mechanism for sub-users of SWIOTLB API, such as Xen-SWIOTLB to set the max segment value. And lastly if swiotlb=force is set (which mandates we bounce buffer everything) we set max_segment so at least we can bounce buffer one 4K page instead of a giant 512KB one for which we may not have space.

What appears to be a copy and paste error from the line above gets the ioctl a ssize_t return value instead of the traditional "int". The associated sample code used "long" which meant it would compile for x86-64 but not i386, with the latter failing as follows: CC [M] samples/vfio-mdev/mtty.o samples/vfio-mdev/mtty.c:1418:20: error: initialization from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types] .ioctl = mtty_ioctl, ^ samples/vfio-mdev/mtty.c:1418:20: note: (near initialization for ‘mdev_fops.ioctl’) cc1: some warnings being treated as errors Since in this case, vfio is working with struct file_operations; as such: long (*unlocked_ioctl) (struct file *, unsigned int, unsigned long); long (*compat_ioctl) (struct file *, unsigned int, unsigned long); ...and so here we just standardize on long vs. the normal int that user space typically sees and documents as per "man ioctl" and similar.

The LIS3LV02 has a special bit that need to be set to get the read values left aligned. Before this patch we get gibberish like this: iio_generic_buffer -a -c10 -n lis3lv02dl_accel (...) 0.000000 -0.010042 -0.642688 19155832931907 0.000000 -0.010042 -0.642688 19155858751073 Which is because we read a raw value for 1g as 64 which is the nominal 1024 for 1g shifted 4 bits to the left by being right-aligned rather than left aligned. Since all other sensors are left aligned, add some code to set the special DAS (data alignment setting) bit to 1 so that the right value is now read like this: iio_generic_buffer -a -c10 -n lis3lv02dl_accel (...) 0.000000 -0.147095 -10.120135 24761614364956 -0.029419 -0.176514 -10.120135 24761631624540 The scaling was weird as well: we have a gain of 1000 for 1g and 3000 for 6g.

Demoting simple flow steering rule priority (for DPDK) was achieved by wrapping FW commands MLX4_QP_FLOW_STEERING_ATTACH/DETACH for the PF as well, and forcing the priority to MLX4_DOMAIN_NIC in the wrapper function for the PF and all VFs. In function mlx4_ib_create_flow(), this change caused the main rule creation for the PF to be wrapped, while it left the associated tunnel steering rule creation unwrapped for the PF. This mismatch caused rule deletion failures in mlx4_ib_destroy_flow() for the PF when the detach wrapper function did not find the associated tunnel-steering rule (since creation of that rule for the PF did not go through the wrapper function). Fix this by setting MLX4_QP_FLOW_STEERING_ATTACH/DETACH to be "native" (so that the PF invocation does not go through the wrapper), and perform the required priority demotion for the PF in the mlx4_ib_create_flow() code path.

In commit 62906027 ("mm: add PageWaiters indicating tasks are waiting for a page bit") Nick Piggin made our page locking no longer unconditionally touch the hashed page waitqueue, which not only helps performance in general, but is particularly helpful on NUMA machines where the hashed wait queues can bounce around a lot. However, the "clear lock bit atomically and then test the waiters bit" sequence turns out to be much more expensive than it needs to be, because you get a nasty stall when trying to access the same word that just got updated atomically. On architectures where locking is done with LL/SC, this would be trivial to fix with a new primitive that clears one bit and tests another atomically, but that ends up not working on x86, where the only atomic operations that return the result end up being cmpxchg and xadd. The atomic bit operations return the old value of the same bit we changed, not the value of an unrelated bit. On x86, we could put the lock bit in the high bit of the byte, and use "xadd" with that bit (where the overflow ends up not touching other bits), and look at the other bits of the result. However, an even simpler model is to just use a regular atomic "and" to clear the lock bit, and then the sign bit in eflags will indicate the resulting state of the unrelated bit #7. So by moving the PageWaiters bit up to bit #7, we can atomically clear the lock bit and test the waiters bit on x86 too. And architectures with LL/SC (which is all the usual RISC suspects), the particular bit doesn't matter, so they are fine with this approach too. This avoids the extra access to the same atomic word, and thus avoids the costly stall at page unlock time. The only downside is that the interface ends up being a bit odd and specialized: clear a bit in a byte, and test the sign bit. Nick doesn't love the resulting name of the new primitive, but I'd rather make the name be descriptive and very clear about the limitation imposed by trying to work across all relevant architectures than make it be some generic thing that doesn't make the odd semantics explicit. So this introduces the new architecture primitive clear_bit_unlock_is_negative_byte(); and adds the trivial implementation for x86. We have a generic non-optimized fallback (that just does a "clear_bit()"+"test_bit(7)" combination) which can be overridden by any architecture that can do better. According to Nick, Power has the same hickup x86 has, for example, but some other architectures may not even care. All these optimizations mean that my page locking stress-test (which is just executing a lot of small short-lived shell scripts: "make test" in the git source tree) no longer makes our page locking look horribly bad. Before all these optimizations, just the unlock_page() costs were just over 3% of all CPU overhead on "make test". After this, it's down to 0.66%, so just a quarter of the cost it used to be. (The difference on NUMA is bigger, but there this micro-optimization is likely less noticeable, since the big issue on NUMA was not the accesses to 'struct page', but the waitqueue accesses that were already removed by Nick's earlier commit).

Currently invalidate_inode_pages2_range() and invalidate_mapping_pages() just delete all exceptional radix tree entries they find. For DAX this is not desirable as we track cache dirtiness in these entries and when they are evicted, we may not flush caches although it is necessary. This can for example manifest when we write to the same block both via mmap and via write(2) (to different offsets) and fsync(2) then does not properly flush CPU caches when modification via write(2) was the last one. Create appropriate DAX functions to handle invalidation of DAX entries for invalidate_inode_pages2_range() and invalidate_mapping_pages() and wire them up into the corresponding mm functions.

Add a new page flag, PageWaiters, to indicate the page waitqueue has tasks waiting. This can be tested rather than testing waitqueue_active which requires another cacheline load. This bit is always set when the page has tasks on page_waitqueue(page), and is set and cleared under the waitqueue lock. It may be set when there are no tasks on the waitqueue, which will cause a harmless extra wakeup check that will clears the bit. The generic bit-waitqueue infrastructure is no longer used for pages. Instead, waitqueues are used directly with a custom key type. The generic code was not flexible enough to have PageWaiters manipulation under the waitqueue lock (which simplifies concurrency). This improves the performance of page lock intensive microbenchmarks by 2-3%. Putting two bits in the same word opens the opportunity to remove the memory barrier between clearing the lock bit and testing the waiters bit, after some work on the arch primitives (e.g., ensuring memory operand widths match and cover both bits).
