      Reinstate ZERO_PAGE optimization in 'get_user_pages()' and fix XIP · 89f5b7da
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki and Oleg Nesterov point out that since the commit
      557ed1fa ("remove ZERO_PAGE") removed
      the ZERO_PAGE from the VM mappings, any users of get_user_pages() will
      generally now populate the VM with real empty pages needlessly.
      
      We used to get the ZERO_PAGE when we did the "handle_mm_fault()", but
      since fault handling no longer uses ZERO_PAGE for new anonymous pages,
      we now need to handle that special case in follow_page() instead.
      
      In particular, the removal of ZERO_PAGE effectively removed the core
      file writing optimization where we would skip writing pages that had not
      been populated at all, and increased memory pressure a lot by allocating
      all those useless newly zeroed pages.
      
      This reinstates the optimization by making the unmapped PTE case the
      same as for a non-existent page table, which already did this correctly.
      
      While at it, this also fixes the XIP case for follow_page(), where the
      caller could not differentiate between the case of a page that simply
      could not be used (because it had no "struct page" associated with it)
      and a page that just wasn't mapped.
      
      We do that by simply returning an error pointer for pages that could not
      be turned into a "struct page *".  The error is arbitrarily picked to be
      EFAULT, since that was what get_user_pages() already used for the
      equivalent IO-mapped page case.
      
      [ Also removed an impossible test for pte_offset_map_lock() failing:
        that's not how that function works ]

      [POWERPC] Clear sub-page HPTE present bits when demoting page size · 65ba6cdc
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      When we demote a slice from 64k to 4k, and we are about to insert an
      HPTE for a 4k subpage and we notice that there is an existing 64k
      HPTE, we first invalidate that HPTE before inserting the new 4k
      subpage HPTE.  Since the bits that encode which hash bucket the old
      HPTE was in overlap with the bits that encode which of the 16 subpages
      have HPTEs, we need to clear out the subpage HPTE-present bits before
      starting to insert HPTEs for the 4k subpages.  If we don't do that, we
      can erroneously think that a subpage already has an HPTE when it
      doesn't.
      
      That in itself wouldn't be such a problem except that when we go to
      update the HPTE that we think is present on machines with a
      hypervisor, the hypervisor can tell us that the HPTE we think is there
      is actually there even though it isn't, which can lead to a process
      getting stuck in a loop, continually faulting.  The reason for the
      confusion is that the AVPN (abbreviated virtual page number) we are
      looking for in the HPTE for a 4k subpage can actually match the AVPN
      in a stale HPTE for another 64k page.  For example, the HPTE for
      the 4k subpage at 0x84000f000 will be in the same hash bucket and have
      the same AVPN as the HPTE for the 64k page at 0x8400f0000.
      
      This fixes the code to clear out the subpage HPTE-present bits.

      netlink: genl: fix circular locking · 6d1a3fb5
      Patrick McHardy 提交于
      genetlink has a circular locking dependency when dumping the registered
      families:
      
      - dump start:
      genl_rcv()            : take genl_mutex
      genl_rcv_msg()        : call netlink_dump_start() while holding genl_mutex
      netlink_dump_start(),
      netlink_dump()        : take nlk->cb_mutex
      ctrl_dumpfamily()     : try to detect this case and not take genl_mutex a
                              second time
      
      - dump continuance:
      netlink_rcv()         : call netlink_dump
      netlink_dump          : take nlk->cb_mutex
      ctrl_dumpfamily()     : take genl_mutex
      
      Register genl_lock as callback mutex with netlink to fix this. This slightly
      widens an already existing module unload race, the genl ops used during the
      dump might go away when the module is unloaded. Thomas Graf is working on a
      seperate fix for this.

      Revert "mac80211: Use skb_header_cloned() on TX path." · 3a5be7d4
      David S. Miller 提交于
      This reverts commit 608961a5.
      
      The problem is that the mac80211 stack not only needs to be able to
      muck with the link-level headers, it also might need to mangle all of
      the packet data if doing sw wireless encryption.
      
      This fixes kernel bugzilla #10903.  Thanks to Didier Raboud (for the
      bugzilla report), Andrew Prince (for bisecting), Johannes Berg (for
      bringing this bisection analysis to my attention), and Ilpo (for
      trying to analyze this purely from the TCP side).
      
      In 2.6.27 we can take another stab at this, by using something like
      skb_cow_data() when the TX path of mac80211 ends up with a non-NULL
      tx->key.  The ESP protocol code in the IPSEC stack can be used as a
      model for implementation.

      af_unix: fix 'poll for write'/ connected DGRAM sockets · 3c73419c
      Rainer Weikusat 提交于
      The unix_dgram_sendmsg routine implements a (somewhat crude)
      form of receiver-imposed flow control by comparing the length of the
      receive queue of the 'peer socket' with the max_ack_backlog value
      stored in the corresponding sock structure, either blocking
      the thread which caused the send-routine to be called or returning
      EAGAIN. This routine is used by both SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET
      sockets. The poll-implementation for these socket types is
      datagram_poll from core/datagram.c. A socket is deemed to be writeable
      by this routine when the memory presently consumed by datagrams
      owned by it is less than the configured socket send buffer size. This
      is always wrong for connected PF_UNIX non-stream sockets when the
      abovementioned receive queue is currently considered to be full.
      'poll' will then return, indicating that the socket is writeable, but
      a subsequent write result in EAGAIN, effectively causing an
      (usual) application to 'poll for writeability by repeated send request
      with O_NONBLOCK set' until it has consumed its time quantum.
      
      The change below uses a suitably modified variant of the datagram_poll
      routines for both type of PF_UNIX sockets, which tests if the
      recv-queue of the peer a socket is connected to is presently
      considered to be 'full' as part of the 'is this socket
      writeable'-checking code. The socket being polled is additionally
      put onto the peer_wait wait queue associated with its peer, because the
      unix_dgram_sendmsg routine does a wake up on this queue after a
      datagram was received and the 'other wakeup call' is done implicitly
      as part of skb destruction, meaning, a process blocked in poll
      because of a full peer receive queue could otherwise sleep forever
      if no datagram owned by its socket was already sitting on this queue.
      Among this change is a small (inline) helper routine named
      'unix_recvq_full', which consolidates the actual testing code (in three
      different places) into a single location.

      atl1: relax eeprom mac address error check · 58c7821c
      Radu Cristescu 提交于
      The atl1 driver tries to determine the MAC address thusly:
      
      	- If an EEPROM exists, read the MAC address from EEPROM and
      	  validate it.
      	- If an EEPROM doesn't exist, try to read a MAC address from
      	  SPI flash.
      	- If that fails, try to read a MAC address directly from the
      	  MAC Station Address register.
      	- If that fails, assign a random MAC address provided by the
      	  kernel.
      
      We now have a report of a system fitted with an EEPROM containing all
      zeros where we expect the MAC address to be, and we currently handle
      this as an error condition.  Turns out, on this system the BIOS writes
      a valid MAC address to the NIC's MAC Station Address register, but we
      never try to read it because we return an error when we find the all-
      zeros address in EEPROM.
      
      This patch relaxes the error check and continues looking for a MAC
      address even if it finds an illegal one in EEPROM.

      x86-64: Fix "bytes left to copy" return value for copy_from_user() · 42a886af
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Most users by far do not care about the exact return value (they only
      really care about whether the copy succeeded in its entirety or not),
      but a few special core routines actually care deeply about exactly how
      many bytes were copied from user space.
      
      And the unrolled versions of the x86-64 user copy routines would
      sometimes report that it had copied more bytes than it actually had.
      
      Very few uses actually have partial copies to begin with, but to make
      this bug even harder to trigger, most x86 CPU's use the "rep string"
      instructions for normal user copies, and that version didn't have this
      issue.
      
      To make it even harder to hit, the one user of this that really cared
      about the return value (and used the uncached version of the copy that
      doesn't use the "rep string" instructions) was the generic write
      routine, which pre-populated its source, once more hiding the problem by
      avoiding the exception case that triggers the bug.
      
      In other words, very special thanks to Bron Gondwana who not only
      triggered this, but created a test-program to show it, and bisected the
      behavior down to commit 08291429 ("mm:
      fix pagecache write deadlocks") which changed the access pattern just
      enough that you can now trigger it with 'writev()' with multiple
      iovec's.
      
      That commit itself was not the cause of the bug, it just allowed all the
      stars to align just right that you could trigger the problem.
      
      [ Side note: this is just the minimal fix to make the copy routines
        (with __copy_from_user_inatomic_nocache as the particular version that
        was involved in showing this) have the right return values.
      
        We really should improve on the exceptional case further - to make the
        copy do a byte-accurate copy up to the exact page limit that causes it
        to fail.  As it is, the callers have to do extra work to handle the
        limit case gracefully. ]

      One way to fix this would be to split helper cleanup from the unregistration
      function and invoke it for the H.245 helper, but since ctnetlink needs to be
      able to find the helper for synchonization purposes, a better fix is to
      register it normally and make sure its not assigned to connections during
      helper lookup. The missing l3num initialization is enough for this, this
      patch changes it to use AF_UNSPEC to make it more explicit though.
