      xen/boot: Disable NUMA for PV guests. · 8d54db79
      由 Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 提交于 
      The hypervisor is in charge of allocating the proper "NUMA" memory
and dealing with the CPU scheduler to keep them bound to the proper
NUMA node. The PV guests (and PVHVM) have no inkling of where they
run and do not need to know that right now. In the future we will
need to inject NUMA configuration data (if a guest spans two or more
NUMA nodes) so that the kernel can make the right choices. But those
patches are not yet present.

In the meantime, disable the NUMA capability in the PV guest, which
also fixes a bootup issue. Andre says:

"we see Dom0 crashes due to the kernel detecting the NUMA topology not
by ACPI, but directly from the northbridge (CONFIG_AMD_NUMA).

This will detect the actual NUMA config of the physical machine, but
will crash about the mismatch with Dom0's virtual memory. Variation of
the theme: Dom0 sees what it's not supposed to see.

This happens with the said config option enabled and on a machine where
this scanning is still enabled (K8 and Fam10h, not Bulldozer class)

We have this dump then:

so we just disable NUMA scanning by setting numa_off=1.

      edac_mc: edac_mc_free() cannot assume mem_ctl_info is registered in sysfs. · faa2ad09
      由 Shaun Ruffell 提交于 
      Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in edac_unregister_sysfs() on
system boot introduced in 3.6-rc1.

Since commit 7a623c03 ("edac: rewrite the sysfs code to use struct
device") edac_mc_alloc() no longer initializes embedded kobjects in
struct mem_ctl_info.  Therefore edac_mc_free() can no longer simply
decrement a kobject reference count to free the allocated memory unless
the memory controller driver module had also called edac_mc_add_mc().

Now edac_mc_free() will check if the newly embedded struct device has
been registered with sysfs before using either the standard device
release functions or freeing the data structures itself with logic
pulled out of the error path of edac_mc_alloc().

The BUG this patch resolves for me:

      edac_mc: fix messy kfree calls in the error path · ef6e7816
      由 Fengguang Wu 提交于 
      coccinelle warns about:

+ drivers/edac/edac_mc.c:429:9-23: ERROR: reference preceded by free on line 429

   421         if (mci->csrows) {
 > 422                 for (chn = 0; chn < tot_channels; chn++) {
   423                         csr = mci->csrows[chn];
   424                         if (csr) {
 > 425                                 for (chn = 0; chn < tot_channels; chn++)
   426                                          kfree(csr->channels[chn]);
   427                                  kfree(csr);
   428                          }
 > 429                          kfree(mci->csrows[i]);
   430                  }
   431                  kfree(mci->csrows);
   432          }

and that code block seem to mess things up in several ways (double free, memory
leak, out-of-bound reads etc.):

L422: The iterator "chn" and bound "tot_channels" are totally wrong. Should be
      "row" and "tot_csrows" respectively. Which means either memory leak, or
      out-of-bound reads (which if does not trigger an immediate page fault
      error, will further lead to kfree() on random addresses).

L425: The inner loop is reusing the same iterator "chn" as the outer loop,
      which could lead to premature end of the outer loop, and hence memory leak.

L429: The array index 'i' in mci->csrows[i] is a temporary value used in
      previous loops, and won't change at all in the current loop. Which
      means either out-of-bound read and possibly kfree(random number), or the
      same mci->csrows[i] get freed once and again, and possibly double free
      for the kfree(csr) in L427.

L426/L427: a kfree(csr->channels) is needed in between to avoid leaking the memory.

The buggy code was introduced by commit de3910eb ("edac: change the mem
allocation scheme to make Documentation/kobject.txt happy") in the 3.6-rc1
merge window. Fix it by freeing up resources in this order:

  free csrows[i]->channels[j]
  free csrows[i]->channels
  free csrows[i]
  free csrows
