Thanks to Michael Kerrisk for keeping us honest. These flags are actually useful for eliminating the only case where kmod has to mangle a module's internals: for overriding module versioning.

As part of the effort to create a stronger boundary between root and kernel, Chrome OS wants to be able to enforce that kernel modules are being loaded only from our read-only crypto-hash verified (dm_verity) root filesystem. Since the init_module syscall hands the kernel a module as a memory blob, no reasoning about the origin of the blob can be made. Earlier proposals for appending signatures to kernel modules would not be useful in Chrome OS, since it would involve adding an additional set of keys to our kernel and builds for no good reason: we already trust the contents of our root filesystem. We don't need to verify those kernel modules a second time. Having to do signature checking on module loading would slow us down and be redundant. All we need to know is where a module is coming from so we can say yes/no to loading it. If a file descriptor is used as the source of a kernel module, many more things can be reasoned about. In Chrome OS's case, we could enforce that the module lives on the filesystem we expect it to live on. In the case of IMA (or other LSMs), it would be possible, for example, to examine extended attributes that may contain signatures over the contents of the module. This introduces a new syscall (on x86), similar to init_module, that has only two arguments. The first argument is used as a file descriptor to the module and the second argument is a pointer to the NULL terminated string of module arguments.

Add the arch symbol prefix (if applicable) to the asm definition of modsign_certificate_list and modsign_certificate_list_end.

Pull late workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo: "Unfortunately, I have two really late fixes. One was for a long-standing bug and queued for 3.8 but I found out about a regression introduced during 3.7-rc1 two days ago, so I'm sending out the two fixes together. The first (long-standing) one is rescuer_thread() entering exit path w/ TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. It only triggers on workqueue destructions which isn't very frequent and the exit path can usually survive being called with TASK_INTERRUPT, so it was hidden pretty well. Apparently, if you're reiserfs, this could lead to the exiting kthread sleeping indefinitely holding a mutex, which is never good. The fix is simple - restoring TASK_RUNNING before returning from the kthread function. The second one is introduced by the new mod_delayed_work(). mod_delayed_work() was missing special case handling for 0 delay. Instead of queueing the work item immediately, it queued the timer which expires on the closest next tick. Some users of the new function converted from "[__]cancel_delayed_work() + queue_delayed_work()" combination became unhappy with the extra delay. Block unplugging led to noticeably higher number of context switches and intel 6250 wireless failed to associate with WPA-Enterprise network. The fix, again, is fairly simple. The 0 delay special case logic from queue_delayed_work_on() should be moved to __queue_delayed_work() which is shared by both queue_delayed_work_on() and mod_delayed_work_on(). The first one is difficult to trigger and the failure mode for the latter isn't completely catastrophic, so missing these two for 3.7 wouldn't make it a disastrous release, but both bugs are nasty and the fixes are fairly safe" * 'for-3.7-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue timer on 0 delay workqueue: exit rescuer_thread() as TASK_RUNNING

8376fe22 ("workqueue: implement mod_delayed_work[_on]()") implemented mod_delayed_work[_on]() using the improved try_to_grab_pending(). The function is later used, among others, to replace [__]candel_delayed_work() + queue_delayed_work() combinations. Unfortunately, a delayed_work item w/ zero @delay is handled slightly differently by mod_delayed_work_on() compared to queue_delayed_work_on(). The latter skips timer altogether and directly queues it using queue_work_on() while the former schedules timer which will expire on the closest tick. This means, when @delay is zero, that [__]cancel_delayed_work() + queue_delayed_work_on() makes the target item immediately executable while mod_delayed_work_on() may induce delay of upto a full tick. This somewhat subtle difference breaks some of the converted users. e.g. block queue plugging uses delayed_work for deferred processing and uses mod_delayed_work_on() when the queue needs to be immediately unplugged. The above problem manifested as noticeably higher number of context switches under certain circumstances. The difference in behavior was caused by missing special case handling for 0 delay in mod_delayed_work_on() compared to queue_delayed_work_on(). Joonsoo Kim posted a patch to add it - ("workqueue: optimize mod_delayed_work_on() when @delay == 0")[1]. The patch was queued for 3.8 but it was described as optimization and I missed that it was a correctness issue. As both queue_delayed_work_on() and mod_delayed_work_on() use __queue_delayed_work() for queueing, it seems that the better approach is to move the 0 delay special handling to the function instead of duplicating it in mod_delayed_work_on(). Fix the problem by moving 0 delay special case handling from queue_delayed_work_on() to __queue_delayed_work(). This replaces Joonsoo's patch.

When a cpu enters S3 state, the FPU state is lost. After resuming for S3, if we try to lazy restore the FPU for a process running on the same CPU, this will result in a corrupted FPU context. Ensure that "fpu_owner_task" is properly invalided when (re-)initializing a CPU, so nobody will try to lazy restore a state which doesn't exist in the hardware. Tested with a 64-bit kernel on a 4-core Ivybridge CPU with eagerfpu=off, by doing thousands of suspend/resume cycles with 4 processes doing FPU operations running. Without the patch, a process is killed after a few hundreds cycles by a SIGFPE.

With "mm: vmscan: scale number of pages reclaimed by reclaim/compaction based on failures" reverted, Zdenek Kabelac reported the following Hmm, so it's just took longer to hit the problem and observe kswapd0 spinning on my CPU again - it's not as endless like before - but still it easily eats minutes - it helps to turn off Firefox or TB (memory hungry apps) so kswapd0 stops soon - and restart those apps again. (And I still have like >1GB of cached memory) kswapd0 R running task 0 30 2 0x00000000 Call Trace: preempt_schedule+0x42/0x60 _raw_spin_unlock+0x55/0x60 put_super+0x31/0x40 drop_super+0x22/0x30 prune_super+0x149/0x1b0 shrink_slab+0xba/0x510 The sysrq+m indicates the system has no swap so it'll never reclaim anonymous pages as part of reclaim/compaction. That is one part of the problem but not the root cause as file-backed pages could also be reclaimed. The likely underlying problem is that kswapd is woken up or kept awake for each THP allocation request in the page allocator slow path. If compaction fails for the requesting process then compaction will be deferred for a time and direct reclaim is avoided. However, if there are a storm of THP requests that are simply rejected, it will still be the the case that kswapd is awake for a prolonged period of time as pgdat->kswapd_max_order is updated each time. This is noticed by the main kswapd() loop and it will not call kswapd_try_to_sleep(). Instead it will loopp, shrinking a small number of pages and calling shrink_slab() on each iteration. This patch defers when kswapd gets woken up for THP allocations. For !THP allocations, kswapd is always woken up. For THP allocations, kswapd is woken up iff the process is willing to enter into direct reclaim/compaction.

Kswapd does not in all places have the same criteria for a balanced zone. Zones are only being reclaimed when their high watermark is breached, but compaction checks loop over the zonelist again when the zone does not meet the low watermark plus two times the size of the allocation. This gets kswapd stuck in an endless loop over a small zone, like the DMA zone, where the high watermark is smaller than the compaction requirement. Add a function, zone_balanced(), that checks the watermark, and, for higher order allocations, if compaction has enough free memory. Then use it uniformly to check for balanced zones. This makes sure that when the compaction watermark is not met, at least reclaim happens and progress is made - or the zone is declared unreclaimable at some point and skipped entirely.

It is caused by free_section_usemap()->virt_to_page(), virt_to_page() is only used for kernel direct mapping address, but sparse-vmemmap uses vmemmap address, so it is going wrong here. ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/physaddr.c:20! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP Modules linked in: acpihp_drv acpihp_slot edd cpufreq_conservative cpufreq_userspace cpufreq_powersave acpi_cpufreq mperf fuse vfat fat loop dm_mod coretemp kvm crc32c_intel ipv6 ixgbe igb iTCO_wdt i7core_edac edac_core pcspkr iTCO_vendor_support ioatdma microcode joydev sr_mod i2c_i801 dca lpc_ich mfd_core mdio tpm_tis i2c_core hid_generic tpm cdrom sg tpm_bios rtc_cmos button ext3 jbd mbcache usbhid hid uhci_hcd ehci_hcd usbcore usb_common sd_mod crc_t10dif processor thermal_sys hwmon scsi_dh_alua scsi_dh_hp_sw scsi_dh_rdac scsi_dh_emc scsi_dh ata_generic ata_piix libata megaraid_sas scsi_mod CPU 39 Pid: 6454, comm: sh Not tainted 3.7.0-rc1-acpihp-final+ #45 QCI QSSC-S4R/QSSC-S4R RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8103c908>] [<ffffffff8103c908>] __phys_addr+0x88/0x90 RSP: 0018:ffff8804440d7c08 EFLAGS: 00010006 RAX: 0000000000000006 RBX: ffffea0012000000 RCX: 000000000000002c ...

Commit ef6c5be6 ("fix incorrect NR_FREE_PAGES accounting (appears like memory leak)") fixes a NR_FREE_PAGE accounting leak but missed the return value which was also missed by this reviewer until today. That return value is used by compaction when adding pages to a list of isolated free pages and without this follow-up fix, there is a risk of free list corruption.

Noticed by Pavel Roskin; the thing in his patch I disagree with was compensating for that shite in callbacks instead of fixing it once in the iterator itself. Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

We are leaking fattr and fhandle if we decide that dentry is not to be invalidated, after all (e.g. happens to be a mountpoint). Just free both before that... Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Merge branch 'v3.7-samsung-fixes-4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kgene/linux-samsung into fixes From Kukjin Kim <kgene.kim@samsung.com>: Samsung fixes for v3.7 * 'v3.7-samsung-fixes-4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kgene/linux-samsung: ARM: S3C24XX: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference error This would have been ok to delay to 3.8 according to Kukjin, but since it's an obvious bug fix and a potential NULL pointer dereference, it seem appropriate for a late 3.7 submission.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: "Some more fixes trickled in over the past few days: 1) PIM device names can overflow the IFNAMSIZ buffer unless we properly limit the allowed indexes, fix from Eric Dumazet. 2) Under heavy load we can OOPS in icmp reply processing due to an unchecked inet_putpeer() call. Fix from Neal Cardwell. 3) SCTP round trip calculations need to use 64-bit math to avoid overflows, fix from Schoch Christian. 4) Fix a memory leak and an error return flub in SCTP and IRDA triggerable by userspace. Fix from Tommi Rantala and found by the syscall fuzzer (trinity). 5) MLX4 driver gives bogus size to memcpy() call, fix from Amir Vadai. 6) Fix length calculation in VHOST descriptor translation, from Michael S Tsirkin. 7) Ambassador ATM driver loops forever while loading firmware, fix from Dan Carpenter. 8) Over MTU packets in openvswitch warn about wrong device, fix from Jesse Gross. 9) Netfilter IPSET's netlink code can overrun a string buffer because it's not properly limited to IFNAMSIZ. Fix from Florian Westphal. 10) PCAN USB driver sets wrong timestamp in SKB, from Oliver Hartkopp. 11) Make sure the RX ifindex always has a valid value in the CAN BCM driver, even if we haven't received a frame yet. Fix also from Oliver Hartkopp." * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: team: fix hw_features setup atm: forever loop loading ambassador firmware vhost: fix length for cross region descriptor irda: irttp: fix memory leak in irttp_open_tsap() error path net: qmi_wwan: add Huawei E173 net/mlx4_en: Can set maxrate only for TC0 sctp: Error in calculation of RTTvar sctp: fix -ENOMEM result with invalid user space pointer in sendto() syscall sctp: fix memory leak in sctp_datamsg_from_user() when copy from user space fails net: ipmr: limit MRT_TABLE identifiers ipv4: avoid passing NULL to inet_putpeer() in icmpv4_xrlim_allow() can: bcm: initialize ifindex for timeouts without previous frame reception can: peak_usb: fix hwtstamp assignment netfilter: ipset: fix netiface set name overflow openvswitch: Store flow key len if ARP opcode is not request or reply. openvswitch: Print device when warning about over MTU packets.
