memblock_free_reserved_regions() calls memblock_free(), but memblock_free() would double reserved.regions too, so we could free the old range for reserved.regions. Also tj said there is another bug which could be related to this. | I don't think we're saving any noticeable | amount by doing this "free - give it to page allocator - reserve | again" dancing. We should just allocate regions aligned to page | boundaries and free them later when memblock is no longer in use. in that case, when DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, will get panic: memblock_free: [0x0000102febc080-0x0000102febf080] memblock_free_reserved_regions+0x37/0x39 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff88102febd948 IP: [<ffffffff836a5774>] __next_free_mem_range+0x9b/0x155 PGD 4826063 PUD cf67a067 PMD cf7fa067 PTE 800000102febd160 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC CPU 0 Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 3.5.0-rc2-next-20120614-sasha #447 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff836a5774>] [<ffffffff836a5774>] __next_free_mem_range+0x9b/0x155 See the discussion at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/13/469 So try to allocate with PAGE_SIZE alignment and free it later.

After commit f5bf18fa ("bootmem/sparsemem: remove limit constraint in alloc_bootmem_section"), usemap allocations may easily be placed outside the optimal section that holds the node descriptor, even if there is space available in that section. This results in unnecessary hotplug dependencies that need to have the node unplugged before the section holding the usemap. The reason is that the bootmem allocator doesn't guarantee a linear search starting from the passed allocation goal but may start out at a much higher address absent an upper limit. Fix this by trying the allocation with the limit at the section end, then retry without if that fails. This keeps the fix from f5bf18fa of not panicking if the allocation does not fit in the section, but still makes sure to try to stay within the section at first.

kswapd_stop() is called to destroy the kswapd work thread when all memory of a NUMA node has been offlined. But kswapd_stop() only terminates the work thread without resetting NODE_DATA(nid)->kswapd to NULL. The stale pointer will prevent kswapd_run() from creating a new work thread when adding memory to the memory-less NUMA node again. Eventually the stale pointer may cause invalid memory access. An example stack dump as below. It's reproduced with 2.6.32, but latest kernel has the same issue.

Quite a few ASUS computers experience a nasty problem, related to the EHCI controllers, when going into system suspend. It was observed that the problem didn't occur if the controllers were not put into the D3 power state before starting the suspend, and commit 151b6128 (USB: EHCI: fix crash during suspend on ASUS computers) was created to do this. It turned out this approach messed up other computers that didn't have the problem -- it prevented USB wakeup from working. Consequently commit c2fb8a3f (USB: add NO_D3_DURING_SLEEP flag and revert 151b6128) was merged; it reverted the earlier commit and added a whitelist of known good board names. Now we know the actual cause of the problem. Thanks to AceLan Kao for tracking it down. According to him, an engineer at ASUS explained that some of their BIOSes contain a bug that was added in an attempt to work around a problem in early versions of Windows. When the computer goes into S3 suspend, the BIOS tries to verify that the EHCI controllers were first quiesced by the OS. Nothing's wrong with this, but the BIOS does it by checking that the PCI COMMAND registers contain 0 without checking the controllers' power state. If the register isn't 0, the BIOS assumes the controller needs to be quiesced and tries to do so. This involves making various MMIO accesses to the controller, which don't work very well if the controller is already in D3. The end result is a system hang or memory corruption. Since the value in the PCI COMMAND register doesn't matter once the controller has been suspended, and since the value will be restored anyway when the controller is resumed, we can work around the BIOS bug simply by setting the register to 0 during system suspend. This patch (as1590) does so and also reverts the second commit mentioned above, which is now unnecessary. In theory we could do this for every PCI device. However to avoid introducing new problems, the patch restricts itself to EHCI host controllers. Finally the affected systems can suspend with USB wakeup working properly.

Ocfs2 uses kiocb.*private as a flag of unsigned long size. In commit a11f7e63 ocfs2: serialize unaligned aio, the unaligned io flag is involved in it to serialize the unaligned aio. As *private is not initialized in init_sync_kiocb() of do_sync_write(), this unaligned io flag may be unexpectly set in an aligned dio. And this will cause OCFS2_I(inode)->ip_unaligned_aio decreased to -1 in ocfs2_dio_end_io(), thus the following unaligned dio will hang forever at ocfs2_aiodio_wait() in ocfs2_file_aio_write().

When inbound messages arrive, rpmsg core looks up their associated endpoint (by destination address) and then invokes their callback. We've made sure that endpoints will never be de-allocated after they were found by rpmsg core, but we also need to protect against the (rare) scenario where the rpmsg driver was just removed, and its callback function isn't available anymore. This is achieved by introducing a callback mutex, which must be taken before the callback is invoked, and, obviously, before it is removed.

When an inbound message arrives, the rpmsg core looks up its associated endpoint and invokes the registered callback. If a message arrives while its endpoint is being removed (because the rpmsg driver was removed, or a recovery of a remote processor has kicked in) we must ensure atomicity, i.e.: - Either the ept is removed before it is found or - The ept is found but will not be freed until the callback returns This is achieved by maintaining a per-ept reference count, which, when drops to zero, will trigger deallocation of the ept. With this in hand, it is now forbidden to directly deallocate epts once they have been added to the endpoints idr.

Commit 5963e317 ("ftrace/x86: Do not change stacks in DEBUG when calling lockdep") prevented lockdep calls from the int3 breakpoint handler from reseting the stack if a function that was called was in the process of being converted for tracing and had a breakpoint on it. The idea is, before calling the lockdep code, do a load_idt() to the special IDT that kept the breakpoint stack from reseting. This worked well as a quick fix for this kernel release, until a certain config caused a lockup in the function tracer start up tests. Investigating it, I found that the load_idt that was used to prevent the int3 from changing stacks was itself being traced! Even though the config had CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING disabled, and all 'inline' tags were set to always inline, there were still cases that it did not inline! This was caused by CONFIG_PARAVIRT_GUEST, where it would add a pointer to the native_load_idt() which made that function to be traced. Commit 45959ee7 ("ftrace: Do not function trace inlined functions") only touched the 'inline' tags when CONFIG_OPMITIZE_INLINING was enabled. PARAVIRT_GUEST shows that this was not enough and we need to also mark always_inline with notrace as well.

Currently there is a 'chicken and egg' issue when the DS is also the mounted MDS. The nfs_match_client() reference from nfs4_set_ds_client bumps the cl_count, the nfs_client is not freed at umount, and nfs4_deviceid_purge_client is not called to dereference the MDS usage of a deviceid which holds a reference to the DS nfs_client. The result is the umount program returns, but the nfs_client is not freed, and the cl_session hearbeat continues. The MDS (and all other nfs mounts) lose their last nfs_client reference in nfs_free_server when the last nfs_server (fsid) is umounted. The file layout DS lose their last nfs_client reference in destroy_ds when the last deviceid referencing the data server is put and destroy_ds is called. This is triggered by a call to nfs4_deviceid_purge_client which removes references to a pNFS deviceid used by an MDS mount. The fix is to track how many pnfs enabled filesystems are mounted from this server, and then to purge the device id cache once that count reaches zero.

Minchan Kim reports that when a system has many swap areas, and tmpfs swaps out to the ninth or more, shmem_getpage_gfp()'s attempts to read back the page cannot locate it, and the read fails with -ENOMEM. Whoops. Yes, I blindly followed read_swap_header()'s pte_to_swp_entry( swp_entry_to_pte()) technique for determining maximum usable swap offset, without stopping to realize that that actually depends upon the pte swap encoding shifting swap offset to the higher bits and truncating it there. Whereas our radix_tree swap encoding leaves offset in the lower bits: it's swap "type" (that is, index of swap area) that was truncated. Fix it by reducing the SWP_TYPE_SHIFT() in swapops.h, and removing the broken radix_to_swp_entry(swp_to_radix_entry()) from read_swap_header(). This does not reduce the usable size of a swap area any further, it leaves it as claimed when making the original commit: no change from 3.0 on x86_64, nor on i386 without PAE; but 3.0's 512GB is reduced to 128GB per swapfile on i386 with PAE. It's not a change I would have risked five years ago, but with x86_64 supported for ten years, I believe it's appropriate now. Hmm, and what if some architecture implements its swap pte with offset encoded below type? That would equally break the maximum usable swap offset check. Happily, they all follow the same tradition of encoding offset above type, but I'll prepare a check on that for next.

Orphaning skb in dev_hard_start_xmit() makes bonding behavior unfriendly for applications sending big UDP bursts : Once packets pass the bonding device and come to real device, they might hit a full qdisc and be dropped. Without orphaning, the sender is automatically throttled because sk->sk_wmemalloc reaches sk->sk_sndbuf (assuming sk_sndbuf is not too big) We could try to defer the orphaning adding another test in dev_hard_start_xmit(), but all this seems of little gain, now that BQL tends to make packets more likely to be parked in Qdisc queues instead of NIC TX ring, in cases where performance matters.

This patch (as1558) fixes a problem affecting several ASUS computers: The machine crashes or corrupts memory when going into suspend if the ehci-hcd driver is bound to any controllers. Users have been forced to unbind or unload ehci-hcd before putting their systems to sleep. After extensive testing, it was determined that the machines don't like going into suspend when any EHCI controllers are in the PCI D3 power state. Presumably this is a firmware bug, but there's nothing we can do about it except to avoid putting the controllers in D3 during system sleep. The patch adds a new flag to indicate whether the problem is present, and avoids changing the controller's power state if the flag is set. Runtime suspend is unaffected; this matters only for system suspend. However as a side effect, the controller will not respond to remote wakeup requests while the system is asleep. Hence USB wakeup is not functional -- but of course, this is already true in the current state of affairs. A similar patch has already been applied as commit 151b6128 (USB: EHCI: fix crash during suspend on ASUS computers). The patch supersedes that one and reverts it. There are two differences: The old patch added the flag at the USB level; this patch adds it at the PCI level. The old patch applied to all chipsets with the same vendor, subsystem vendor, and product IDs; this patch makes an exception for a known-good system (based on DMI information).

Dave Jones reported a kernel BUG at mm/slub.c:3474! triggered by splice_shrink_spd() called from vmsplice_to_pipe() commit 35f3d14d (pipe: add support for shrinking and growing pipes) added capability to adjust pipe->buffers. Problem is some paths don't hold pipe mutex and assume pipe->buffers doesn't change for their duration. Fix this by adding nr_pages_max field in struct splice_pipe_desc, and use it in place of pipe->buffers where appropriate. splice_shrink_spd() loses its struct pipe_inode_info argument.

Yuck. The VIDIOC_(TRY_)DECODER_CMD ioctls already had ioctl numbers 96 and 97, and after merging the timings API I forgot to continue numbering from 98. So now we have two ioctls with number 96 and two with 97. With the new table-driver ioctl handling in v4l2-ioctl.c it is essential that each ioctl has its own unique number, so let's fix this quickly for 3.5.

I originally sent this patch to <trivial@kernel.org>, but Jiri Kosina did not feel that this is fully appropriate for the trivial tree. Using linux/tcp.h from C++ results in: cat t.cc #include <linux/tcp.h> int main() { } g++ -c t.cc In file included from t.cc:1: /usr/include/linux/tcp.h:72: error: '__u32 __fswab32(__u32)' cannot appear in a constant-expression /usr/include/linux/tcp.h:72: error: a function call cannot appear in a constant-expression ... Attached trivial patch fixes this problem. Tested: - the t.cc above compiles with g++ and - the following program generates the same output before/after the patch: #include <linux/tcp.h> #include <stdio.h> int main () { #define P(a) printf("%s: %08x\n", #a, (int)a) P(TCP_FLAG_CWR); P(TCP_FLAG_ECE); P(TCP_FLAG_URG); P(TCP_FLAG_ACK); P(TCP_FLAG_PSH); P(TCP_FLAG_RST); P(TCP_FLAG_SYN); P(TCP_FLAG_FIN); P(TCP_RESERVED_BITS); P(TCP_DATA_OFFSET); #undef P return 0; } Signed-off-by: NPaul Pluzhnikov <ppluzhnikov@google.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Commit 026cee00 "params: <level>_initcall-like kernel parameters" set old-style module parameters to level 0. And we call those level 0 calls where we used to, early in start_kernel(). We also loop through the initcall levels and call the levelled module_params before the corresponding initcall. Unfortunately level 0 is early_init(), so we call the standard module_param calls twice. (Turns out most things don't care, but at least ubi.mtd does). Change the level to -1 for standard module_param calls. Reported-by: NBenoît Thébaudeau <benoit.thebaudeau@advansee.com> Signed-off-by: NRusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: stable@kernel.org

Zero is written at clear_tid_address when the process exits. This functionality is used by pthread_join(). We already have sys_set_tid_address() to change this address for the current task but there is no way to obtain it from user space. Without the ability to find this address and dump it we can't restore pthread'ed apps which call pthread_join() once they have been restored. This patch introduces the PR_GET_TID_ADDRESS prctl option which allows the current process to obtain own clear_tid_address. This feature is available iif CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is set.

A fix for commit b32dfe37 ("c/r: prctl: add ability to set new mm_struct::exe_file"). After removing mm->num_exe_file_vmas kernel keeps mm->exe_file until final mmput(), it never becomes NULL while task is alive. We can check for other mapped files in mm instead of checking mm->num_exe_file_vmas, and mark mm with flag MMF_EXE_FILE_CHANGED in order to forbid second changing of mm->exe_file.

When a CPU is entering dyntick-idle mode, tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() calls rcu_needs_cpu() see if RCU needs that CPU, and, if not, computes the next wakeup time based on the timer wheels. Only later, when actually entering the idle loop, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will be invoked. In some cases, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will post timers to wake the CPU back up. But all for naught: The next wakeup time for the CPU has already been computed, and posting a timer afterwards does not force that wakeup time to be recomputed. This means that rcu_prepare_for_idle()'s have no effect. This is not a problem on a busy system because something else will wake up the CPU soon enough. However, on lightly loaded systems, the CPU might stay asleep for a considerable length of time. If that CPU has a callback that the rest of the system is waiting on, the system might run very slowly or (in theory) even hang. This commit avoids this problem by having rcu_needs_cpu() give tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() an estimate of when RCU will need the CPU to wake back up, which tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() takes into account when programming the CPU's wakeup time. An alternative approach is for rcu_prepare_for_idle() to use hrtimers instead of normal timers, but timers are much more efficient than are hrtimers for frequently and repeatedly posting and cancelling a given timer, which is exactly what RCU_FAST_NO_HZ does.

Weird topologies can lead to asymmetric domain setups. This needs further consideration since these setups are typically non-minimal too. For now, make it work by adding an extra mask selecting which CPUs are allowed to iterate up. The topology that triggered it is the one from David Rientjes: 10 20 20 30 20 10 20 20 20 20 10 20 30 20 20 10 resulting in boxes that wouldn't even boot.
