      mm: Fix PageHead when !CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDED · ad4b3fb7
      Christoffer Dall 提交于
      Unfortunately with !CONFIG_PAGEFLAGS_EXTENDED, (!PageHead) is false, and
      (PageHead) is true, for tail pages.  If this is indeed the intended
      behavior, which I doubt because it breaks cache cleaning on some ARM
      systems, then the nomenclature is highly problematic.
      
      This patch makes sure PageHead is only true for head pages and PageTail
      is only true for tail pages, and neither is true for non-compound pages.
      
      [ This buglet seems ancient - seems to have been introduced back in Apr
        2008 in commit 6a1e7f77: "pageflags: convert to the use of new
        macros".  And the reason nobody noticed is because the PageHead()
        tests are almost all about just sanity-checking, and only used on
        pages that are actual page heads.  The fact that the old code returned
        true for tail pages too was thus not really noticeable.   - Linus ]

      pidns: Stop pid allocation when init dies · c876ad76
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Oleg pointed out that in a pid namespace the sequence.
      - pid 1 becomes a zombie
      - setns(thepidns), fork,...
      - reaping pid 1.
      - The injected processes exiting.
      
      Can lead to processes attempting access their child reaper and
      instead following a stale pointer.
      
      That waitpid for init can return before all of the processes in
      the pid namespace have exited is also unfortunate.
      
      Avoid these problems by disabling the allocation of new pids in a pid
      namespace when init dies, instead of when the last process in a pid
      namespace is reaped.

      linux/kernel.h: fix DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST with unsigned divisors · c4e18497
      Guenter Roeck 提交于
      Commit 263a523d ("linux/kernel.h: Fix warning seen with W=1 due to
      change in DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST") fixes a warning seen with W=1 due to
      change in DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST.
      
      Unfortunately, the C compiler converts divide operations with unsigned
      divisors to unsigned, even if the dividend is signed and negative (for
      example, -10 / 5U = 858993457).  The C standard says "If one operand has
      unsigned int type, the other operand is converted to unsigned int", so
      the compiler is not to blame.  As a result, DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(0, 2U) and
      similar operations now return bad values, since the automatic conversion
      of expressions such as "0 - 2U/2" to unsigned was not taken into
      account.
      
      Fix by checking for the divisor variable type when deciding which
      operation to perform.  This fixes DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(0, 2U), but still
      returns bad values for negative dividends divided by unsigned divisors.
      Mark the latter case as unsupported.
      
      One observed effect of this problem is that the s2c_hwmon driver reports
      a value of 4198403 instead of 0 if the ADC reads 0.
      
      Other impact is unpredictable.  Problem is seen if the divisor is an
      unsigned variable or constant and the dividend is less than (divisor/2).

      exec: do not leave bprm->interp on stack · b66c5984
      Kees Cook 提交于
      If a series of scripts are executed, each triggering module loading via
      unprintable bytes in the script header, kernel stack contents can leak
      into the command line.
      
      Normally execution of binfmt_script and binfmt_misc happens recursively.
      However, when modules are enabled, and unprintable bytes exist in the
      bprm->buf, execution will restart after attempting to load matching
      binfmt modules.  Unfortunately, the logic in binfmt_script and
      binfmt_misc does not expect to get restarted.  They leave bprm->interp
      pointing to their local stack.  This means on restart bprm->interp is
      left pointing into unused stack memory which can then be copied into the
      userspace argv areas.
      
      After additional study, it seems that both recursion and restart remains
      the desirable way to handle exec with scripts, misc, and modules.  As
      such, we need to protect the changes to interp.
      
      This changes the logic to require allocation for any changes to the
      bprm->interp.  To avoid adding a new kmalloc to every exec, the default
      value is left as-is.  Only when passing through binfmt_script or
      binfmt_misc does an allocation take place.
      
      For a proof of concept, see DoTest.sh from:

      Provide a proper invalidation method rather than relying on the netfs retiring

      Instead, have the cache provide an invalidation method that will cancel or wait
      for all currently outstanding operations before invalidating the cache, and
      will cause new operations to queue up behind that.  Whilst invalidation is in
      progress, some requests will be rejected until the cache can stack a barrier on
      the operation queue to cause new operations to be deferred behind it.

      FS-Cache: Fix operation state management and accounting · 9f10523f
      David Howells 提交于
      Fix the state management of internal fscache operations and the accounting of
      what operations are in what states.
      
      This is done by:
      
       (1) Give struct fscache_operation a enum variable that directly represents the
           state it's currently in, rather than spreading this knowledge over a bunch
           of flags, who's processing the operation at the moment and whether it is
           queued or not.
      
           This makes it easier to write assertions to check the state at various
           points and to prevent invalid state transitions.
      
       (2) Add an 'operation complete' state and supply a function to indicate the
           completion of an operation (fscache_op_complete()) and make things call
           it.  The final call to fscache_put_operation() can then check that an op
           in the appropriate state (complete or cancelled).
      
       (3) Adjust the use of object->n_ops, ->n_in_progress, ->n_exclusive to better
           govern the state of an object:
      
      	(a) The ->n_ops is now the number of extant operations on the object
      	    and is now decremented by fscache_put_operation() only.
      
      	(b) The ->n_in_progress is simply the number of objects that have been
      	    taken off of the object's pending queue for the purposes of being
      	    run.  This is decremented by fscache_op_complete() only.
      
      	(c) The ->n_exclusive is the number of exclusive ops that have been
      	    submitted and queued or are in progress.  It is decremented by
      	    fscache_op_complete() and by fscache_cancel_op().
      
           fscache_put_operation() and fscache_operation_gc() now no longer try to
           clean up ->n_exclusive and ->n_in_progress.  That was leading to double
           decrements against fscache_cancel_op().
      
           fscache_cancel_op() now no longer decrements ->n_ops.  That was leading to
           double decrements against fscache_put_operation().
      
           fscache_submit_exclusive_op() now decides whether it has to queue an op
           based on ->n_in_progress being > 0 rather than ->n_ops > 0 as the latter
           will persist in being true even after all preceding operations have been
           cancelled or completed.  Furthermore, if an object is active and there are
           runnable ops against it, there must be at least one op running.
      
       (4) Add a remaining-pages counter (n_pages) to struct fscache_retrieval and
           provide a function to record completion of the pages as they complete.
      
           When n_pages reaches 0, the operation is deemed to be complete and
           fscache_op_complete() is called.
      
           Add calls to fscache_retrieval_complete() anywhere we've finished with a
           page we've been given to read or allocate for.  This includes places where
           we just return pages to the netfs for reading from the server and where
           accessing the cache fails and we discard the proposed netfs page.
      
      The bugs in the unfixed state management manifest themselves as oopses like the
      following where the operation completion gets out of sync with return of the
      cookie by the netfs.  This is possible because the cache unlocks and returns
      all the netfs pages before recording its completion - which means that there's
      nothing to stop the netfs discarding them and returning the cookie.

      CacheFiles: Fix the marking of cached pages · c4d6d8db
      David Howells 提交于
      Under some circumstances CacheFiles defers the marking of pages with PG_fscache
      so that it can take advantage of pagevecs to reduce the number of calls to
      fscache_mark_pages_cached() and the netfs's hook to keep track of this.
      
      There are, however, two problems with this:
      
       (1) It can lead to the PG_fscache mark being applied _after_ the page is set
           PG_uptodate and unlocked (by the call to fscache_end_io()).
      
       (2) CacheFiles's ref on the page is dropped immediately following
           fscache_end_io() - and so may not still be held when the mark is applied.
           This can lead to the page being passed back to the allocator before the
           mark is applied.
      
      Fix this by, where appropriate, marking the page before calling
      fscache_end_io() and releasing the page.  This means that we can't take
      advantage of pagevecs and have to make a separate call for each page to the
      marking routines.
      
      The symptoms of this are Bad Page state errors cropping up under memory
      pressure, for example:

      As can be seen, PG_private_2 (== PG_fscache) is set in the page flags.
      
      Instrumenting fscache_mark_pages_cached() to verify whether page->mapping was
      set appropriately showed that sometimes it wasn't.  This led to the discovery
      that sometimes the page has apparently been reclaimed by the time the marker
      got to see it.

      The code that relied on that flag was ripped out of btrfs quite some
      time ago, and never added back. Josef indicated that he was going to
      take a different approach to the problem in btrfs, and that we
      could just eliminate this flag.
