e58126f570 writeback: fix possible underflow in write bandwidth calculation
commit c72efb658f7c8b27ca3d0efb5cfd5ded9fcac89e upstream.

From 1ebf33901ecc75d9496862dceb1ef0377980587c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

2f800fbd77 ("writeback: fix dirtied pages accounting on redirty")
introduced account_page_redirty() which reverts stat updates for a
redirtied page, making BDI_DIRTIED no longer monotonically increasing.

bdi_update_write_bandwidth() uses the delta in BDI_DIRTIED as the
basis for bandwidth calculation.  While unlikely, since the above
patch, the newer value may be lower than the recorded past value and
underflow the bandwidth calculation leading to a wild result.

Fix it by subtracing min of the old and new values when calculating
delta.  AFAIK, there hasn't been any report of it happening but the
resulting erratic behavior would be non-critical and temporary, so
it's possible that the issue is happening without being reported.  The
risk of the fix is very low, so tagged for -stable.

f16678367d writeback: add missing INITIAL_JIFFIES init in global_update_bandwidth()
commit 7d70e15480c0450d2bfafaad338a32e884fc215e upstream.

global_update_bandwidth() uses static variable update_time as the
timestamp for the last update but forgets to initialize it to
INITIALIZE_JIFFIES.

This means that global_dirty_limit will be 5 mins into the future on
32bit and some large amount jiffies into the past on 64bit.  This
isn't critical as the only effect is that global_dirty_limit won't be
updated for the first 5 mins after booting on 32bit machines,
especially given the auxiliary nature of global_dirty_limit's role -
protecting against global dirty threshold's sudden dips; however, it
does lead to unintended suboptimal behavior.  Fix it.

The cause is the "memset(pgdat, 0, sizeof(*pgdat))" at the end of
try_offline_node, which will reset all the content of pgdat to 0, as the
pgdat is accessed lock-free, so that the users still using the pgdat
will panic, such as the vmstat_update routine.

process A:				offline node XX:

vmstat_updat()
   refresh_cpu_vm_stats()
     for_each_populated_zone()
       find online node XX
     cond_resched()
					offline cpu and memory, then try_offline_node()
					node_set_offline(nid), and memset(pgdat, 0, sizeof(*pgdat))
       zone = next_zone(zone)
         pg_data_t *pgdat = zone->zone_pgdat;  // here pgdat is NULL now
           next_online_pgdat(pgdat)
             next_online_node(pgdat->node_id);  // NULL pointer access

So the solution here is postponing the reset of obsolete pgdat from
try_offline_node() to hotadd_new_pgdat(), and just resetting
pgdat->nr_zones and pgdat->classzone_idx to be 0 rather than the memset
0 to avoid breaking pointer information in pgdat.

9113c468b6 mm/memory.c: actually remap enough memory
commit 9cb12d7b4ccaa976f97ce0c5fd0f1b6a83bc2a75 upstream.

For whatever reason, generic_access_phys() only remaps one page, but
actually allows to access arbitrary size.  It's quite easy to trigger
large reads, like printing out large structure with gdb, which leads to a
crash.  Fix it by remapping correct size.

2295074e44 mm/compaction: fix wrong order check in compact_finished()
commit 372549c2a3778fd3df445819811c944ad54609ca upstream.

What we want to check here is whether there is highorder freepage in buddy
list of other migratetype in order to steal it without fragmentation.
But, current code just checks cc->order which means allocation request
order.  So, this is wrong.

Without this fix, non-movable synchronous compaction below pageblock order
would not stopped until compaction is complete, because migratetype of
most pageblocks are movable and high order freepage made by compaction is
usually on movable type buddy list.

There is some report related to this bug. See below link.

  http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg81666.html

Although the issued system still has load spike comes from compaction,
this makes that system completely stable and responsive according to his
report.

stress-highalloc test in mmtests with non movable order 7 allocation
doesn't show any notable difference in allocation success rate, but, it
shows more compaction success rate.

Compaction success rate (Compaction success * 100 / Compaction stalls, %)
18.47 : 28.94

ae9c2f1fe9 mm/nommu.c: fix arithmetic overflow in __vm_enough_memory()
commit 8138a67a5557ffea3a21dfd6f037842d4e748513 upstream.

I noticed that "allowed" can easily overflow by falling below 0, because
(total_vm / 32) can be larger than "allowed".  The problem occurs in
OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode.

In this case, a huge allocation can success and overcommit the system
(despite OVERCOMMIT_NONE mode).  All subsequent allocations will fall
(system-wide), so system become unusable.

The problem was masked out by commit c9b1d0981f
("mm: limit growth of 3% hardcoded other user reserve"),
but it's easy to reproduce it on older kernels:
1) set overcommit_memory sysctl to 2
2) mmap() large file multiple times (with VM_SHARED flag)
3) try to malloc() large amount of memory

It also can be reproduced on newer kernels, but miss-configured
sysctl_user_reserve_kbytes is required.

Fix this issue by switching to signed arithmetic here.

commit 9fbc1f635fd0bd28cb32550211bf095753ac637a upstream.

If __unmap_hugepage_range() tries to unmap the address range over which
hugepage migration is on the way, we get the wrong page because pte_page()
doesn't work for migration entries.  This patch simply clears the pte for
migration entries as we do for hwpoison entries.

48f5cffe36 mm: pagewalk: call pte_hole() for VM_PFNMAP during walk_page_range
commit 23aaed6659df9adfabe9c583e67a36b54e21df46 upstream.

walk_page_range() silently skips vma having VM_PFNMAP set, which leads
to undesirable behaviour at client end (who called walk_page_range).
Userspace applications get the wrong data, so the effect is like just
confusing users (if the applications just display the data) or sometimes
killing the processes (if the applications do something with
misunderstanding virtual addresses due to the wrong data.)

For example for pagemap_read, when no callbacks are called against
VM_PFNMAP vma, pagemap_read may prepare pagemap data for next virtual
address range at wrong index.

Eventually userspace may get wrong pagemap data for a task.
Corresponding to a VM_PFNMAP marked vma region, kernel may report
mappings from subsequent vma regions.  User space in turn may account
more pages (than really are) to the task.

In my case I was using procmem, procrack (Android utility) which uses
pagemap interface to account RSS pages of a task.  Due to this bug it
was giving a wrong picture for vmas (with VM_PFNMAP set).

7d702b4b2b mm: Don't count the stack guard page towards RLIMIT_STACK
commit 690eac53daff34169a4d74fc7bfbd388c4896abb upstream.

Commit fee7e49d4514 ("mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for
guard page") made sure that we return the error properly for stack
growth conditions.  It also theorized that counting the guard page
towards the stack limit might break something, but also said "Let's see
if anybody notices".

Somebody did notice.  Apparently android-x86 sets the stack limit very
close to the limit indeed, and including the guard page in the rlimit
check causes the android 'zygote' process problems.

So this adds the (fairly trivial) code to make the stack rlimit check be
against the actual real stack size, rather than the size of the vma that
includes the guard page.

88b5d12c64 mm: propagate error from stack expansion even for guard page
commit fee7e49d45149fba60156f5b59014f764d3e3728 upstream.

Jay Foad reports that the address sanitizer test (asan) sometimes gets
confused by a stack pointer that ends up being outside the stack vma
that is reported by /proc/maps.

This happens due to an interaction between RLIMIT_STACK and the guard
page: when we do the guard page check, we ignore the potential error
from the stack expansion, which effectively results in a missing guard
page, since the expected stack expansion won't have been done.

And since /proc/maps explicitly ignores the guard page (commit
d7824370e2: "mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard
page"), the stack pointer ends up being outside the reported stack area.

This is the minimal patch: it just propagates the error.  It also
effectively makes the guard page part of the stack limit, which in turn
measn that the actual real stack is one page less than the stack limit.

Let's see if anybody notices.  We could teach acct_stack_growth() to
allow an extra page for a grow-up/grow-down stack in the rlimit test,
but I don't want to add more complexity if it isn't needed.

6bb148fb1e mm, vmscan: prevent kswapd livelock due to pfmemalloc-throttled process being killed
commit 9e5e3661727eaf960d3480213f8e87c8d67b6956 upstream.

Charles Shirron and Paul Cassella from Cray Inc have reported kswapd
stuck in a busy loop with nothing left to balance, but
kswapd_try_to_sleep() failing to sleep.  Their analysis found the cause
to be a combination of several factors:

1. A process is waiting in throttle_direct_reclaim() on pgdat->pfmemalloc_wait

2. The process has been killed (by OOM in this case), but has not yet been
   scheduled to remove itself from the waitqueue and die.

3. kswapd checks for throttled processes in prepare_kswapd_sleep():

        if (waitqueue_active(&pgdat->pfmemalloc_wait)) {
                wake_up(&pgdat->pfmemalloc_wait);
		return false; // kswapd will not go to sleep
	}

   However, for a process that was already killed, wake_up() does not remove
   the process from the waitqueue, since try_to_wake_up() checks its state
   first and returns false when the process is no longer waiting.

4. kswapd is running on the same CPU as the only CPU that the process is
   allowed to run on (through cpus_allowed, or possibly single-cpu system).

5. CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y kernel is used. If there's nothing to balance, kswapd
   encounters no voluntary preemption points and repeatedly fails
   prepare_kswapd_sleep(), blocking the process from running and removing
   itself from the waitqueue, which would let kswapd sleep.

So, the source of the problem is that we prevent kswapd from going to
sleep until there are processes waiting on the pfmemalloc_wait queue,
and a process waiting on a queue is guaranteed to be removed from the
queue only when it gets scheduled.  This was done to make sure that no
process is left sleeping on pfmemalloc_wait when kswapd itself goes to
sleep.

However, it isn't necessary to postpone kswapd sleep until the
pfmemalloc_wait queue actually empties.  To prevent processes from being
left sleeping, it's actually enough to guarantee that all processes
waiting on pfmemalloc_wait queue have been woken up by the time we put
kswapd to sleep.

This patch therefore fixes this issue by substituting 'wake_up' with
'wake_up_all' and removing 'return false' in the code snippet from
prepare_kswapd_sleep() above.  Note that if any process puts itself in
the queue after this waitqueue_active() check, or after the wake up
itself, it means that the process will also wake up kswapd - and since
we are under prepare_to_wait(), the wake up won't be missed.  Also we
update the comment prepare_kswapd_sleep() to hopefully more clearly
describe the races it is preventing.

4542246879 mm: fix swapoff hang after page migration and fork
commit 2022b4d18a491a578218ce7a4eca8666db895a73 upstream.

I've been seeing swapoff hangs in recent testing: it's cycling around
trying unsuccessfully to find an mm for some remaining pages of swap.

I have been exercising swap and page migration more heavily recently,
and now notice a long-standing error in copy_one_pte(): it's trying to
add dst_mm to swapoff's mmlist when it finds a swap entry, but is doing
so even when it's a migration entry or an hwpoison entry.

Which wouldn't matter much, except it adds dst_mm next to src_mm,
assuming src_mm is already on the mmlist: which may not be so.  Then if
pages are later swapped out from dst_mm, swapoff won't be able to find
where to replace them.

There's already a !non_swap_entry() test for stats: move that up before
the swap_duplicate() and the addition to mmlist.

 1. use zswap as the frontswap backend with writeback feature
 2. store a swap page(version_1) to entry A, success
 3. dup-store a newer page(version_2) to the same entry A, fail
 4. use __swap_writepage() write version_2 page to swapfile, success
 5. zswap do shrink, writeback version_1 page to swapfile
 6. version_2 page is overwrited by version_1, data corrupt.

This patch fixes this issue by invalidating expired data immediately
when meet a dup-store failure.

f8a5117916 mm: memcg: handle non-error OOM situations more gracefully
commit 4942642080ea82d99ab5b653abb9a12b7ba31f4a upstream.

Commit 3812c8c8f395 ("mm: memcg: do not trap chargers with full
callstack on OOM") assumed that only a few places that can trigger a
memcg OOM situation do not return VM_FAULT_OOM, like optional page cache
readahead.  But there are many more and it's impractical to annotate
them all.

First of all, we don't want to invoke the OOM killer when the failed
allocation is gracefully handled, so defer the actual kill to the end of
the fault handling as well.  This simplifies the code quite a bit for
added bonus.

Second, since a failed allocation might not be the abrupt end of the
fault, the memcg OOM handler needs to be re-entrant until the fault
finishes for subsequent allocation attempts.  If an allocation is
attempted after the task already OOMed, allow it to bypass the limit so
that it can quickly finish the fault and invoke the OOM killer.

f79d6a4689 mm: memcg: do not trap chargers with full callstack on OOM
commit 3812c8c8f3953921ef18544110dafc3505c1ac62 upstream.

The memcg OOM handling is incredibly fragile and can deadlock.  When a
task fails to charge memory, it invokes the OOM killer and loops right
there in the charge code until it succeeds.  Comparably, any other task
that enters the charge path at this point will go to a waitqueue right
then and there and sleep until the OOM situation is resolved.  The problem
is that these tasks may hold filesystem locks and the mmap_sem; locks that
the selected OOM victim may need to exit.

For example, in one reported case, the task invoking the OOM killer was
about to charge a page cache page during a write(), which holds the
i_mutex.  The OOM killer selected a task that was just entering truncate()
and trying to acquire the i_mutex:

OOM invoking task:
  mem_cgroup_handle_oom+0x241/0x3b0
  mem_cgroup_cache_charge+0xbe/0xe0
  add_to_page_cache_locked+0x4c/0x140
  add_to_page_cache_lru+0x22/0x50
  grab_cache_page_write_begin+0x8b/0xe0
  ext3_write_begin+0x88/0x270
  generic_file_buffered_write+0x116/0x290
  __generic_file_aio_write+0x27c/0x480
  generic_file_aio_write+0x76/0xf0           # takes ->i_mutex
  do_sync_write+0xea/0x130
  vfs_write+0xf3/0x1f0
  sys_write+0x51/0x90
  system_call_fastpath+0x18/0x1d

OOM kill victim:
  do_truncate+0x58/0xa0              # takes i_mutex
  do_last+0x250/0xa30
  path_openat+0xd7/0x440
  do_filp_open+0x49/0xa0
  do_sys_open+0x106/0x240
  sys_open+0x20/0x30
  system_call_fastpath+0x18/0x1d

The OOM handling task will retry the charge indefinitely while the OOM
killed task is not releasing any resources.

A similar scenario can happen when the kernel OOM killer for a memcg is
disabled and a userspace task is in charge of resolving OOM situations.
In this case, ALL tasks that enter the OOM path will be made to sleep on
the OOM waitqueue and wait for userspace to free resources or increase
the group's limit.  But a userspace OOM handler is prone to deadlock
itself on the locks held by the waiting tasks.  For example one of the
sleeping tasks may be stuck in a brk() call with the mmap_sem held for
writing but the userspace handler, in order to pick an optimal victim,
may need to read files from /proc/<pid>, which tries to acquire the same
mmap_sem for reading and deadlocks.

This patch changes the way tasks behave after detecting a memcg OOM and
makes sure nobody loops or sleeps with locks held:

1. When OOMing in a user fault, invoke the OOM killer and restart the
   fault instead of looping on the charge attempt.  This way, the OOM
   victim can not get stuck on locks the looping task may hold.

2. When OOMing in a user fault but somebody else is handling it
   (either the kernel OOM killer or a userspace handler), don't go to
   sleep in the charge context.  Instead, remember the OOMing memcg in
   the task struct and then fully unwind the page fault stack with
   -ENOMEM.  pagefault_out_of_memory() will then call back into the
   memcg code to check if the -ENOMEM came from the memcg, and then
   either put the task to sleep on the memcg's OOM waitqueue or just
   restart the fault.  The OOM victim can no longer get stuck on any
   lock a sleeping task may hold.

7a147e0c45 mm: memcg: rework and document OOM waiting and wakeup
commit fb2a6fc56be66c169f8b80e07ed999ba453a2db2 upstream.

The memcg OOM handler open-codes a sleeping lock for OOM serialization
(trylock, wait, repeat) because the required locking is so specific to
memcg hierarchies.  However, it would be nice if this construct would be
clearly recognizable and not be as obfuscated as it is right now.  Clean
up as follows:

1. Remove the return value of mem_cgroup_oom_unlock()

2. Rename mem_cgroup_oom_lock() to mem_cgroup_oom_trylock().

3. Pull the prepare_to_wait() out of the memcg_oom_lock scope.  This
   makes it more obvious that the task has to be on the waitqueue
   before attempting to OOM-trylock the hierarchy, to not miss any
   wakeups before going to sleep.  It just didn't matter until now
   because it was all lumped together into the global memcg_oom_lock
   spinlock section.

4. Pull the mem_cgroup_oom_notify() out of the memcg_oom_lock scope.
   It is proctected by the hierarchical OOM-lock.

5. The memcg_oom_lock spinlock is only required to propagate the OOM
   lock in any given hierarchy atomically.  Restrict its scope to
   mem_cgroup_oom_(trylock|unlock).

6. Do not wake up the waitqueue unconditionally at the end of the
   function.  Only the lockholder has to wake up the next in line
   after releasing the lock.

   Note that the lockholder kicks off the OOM-killer, which in turn
   leads to wakeups from the uncharges of the exiting task.  But a
   contender is not guaranteed to see them if it enters the OOM path
   after the OOM kills but before the lockholder releases the lock.
   Thus there has to be an explicit wakeup after releasing the lock.

7. Put the OOM task on the waitqueue before marking the hierarchy as
   under OOM as that is the point where we start to receive wakeups.
   No point in listening before being on the waitqueue.

8. Likewise, unmark the hierarchy before finishing the sleep, for
   symmetry.

6c8ad60fef cgroup/kmemleak: add kmemleak_free() for cgroup deallocations.
commit 401507d67d5c2854f5a88b3f93f64fc6f267bca5 upstream.

Commit ff7ee93f47 ("cgroup/kmemleak: Annotate alloc_page() for cgroup
allocations") introduces kmemleak_alloc() for alloc_page_cgroup(), but
corresponding kmemleak_free() is missing, which makes kmemleak be
wrongly disabled after memory offlining.  Log is pasted at the end of
this commit message.

This patch add kmemleak_free() into free_page_cgroup().  During page
offlining, this patch removes corresponding entries in kmemleak rbtree.
After that, the freed memory can be allocated again by other subsystems
without killing kmemleak.

e033782a26 OOM, PM: OOM killed task shouldn't escape PM suspend
commit 5695be142e203167e3cb515ef86a88424f3524eb upstream.

PM freezer relies on having all tasks frozen by the time devices are
getting frozen so that no task will touch them while they are getting
frozen. But OOM killer is allowed to kill an already frozen task in
order to handle OOM situtation. In order to protect from late wake ups
OOM killer is disabled after all tasks are frozen. This, however, still
keeps a window open when a killed task didn't manage to die by the time
freeze_processes finishes.

Reduce the race window by checking all tasks after OOM killer has been
disabled. This is still not race free completely unfortunately because
oom_killer_disable cannot stop an already ongoing OOM killer so a task
might still wake up from the fridge and get killed without
freeze_processes noticing. Full synchronization of OOM and freezer is,
however, too heavy weight for this highly unlikely case.

Introduce and check oom_kills counter which gets incremented early when
the allocator enters __alloc_pages_may_oom path and only check all the
tasks if the counter changes during the freezing attempt. The counter
is updated so early to reduce the race window since allocator checked
oom_killer_disabled which is set by PM-freezing code. A false positive
will push the PM-freezer into a slow path but that is not a big deal.

Changes since v1
- push the re-check loop out of freeze_processes into
  check_frozen_processes and invert the condition to make the code more
  readable as per Rafael

6cbdf11511 vfs: fix data corruption when blocksize < pagesize for mmaped data
commit 90a8020278c1598fafd071736a0846b38510309c upstream.

->page_mkwrite() is used by filesystems to allocate blocks under a page
which is becoming writeably mmapped in some process' address space. This
allows a filesystem to return a page fault if there is not enough space
available, user exceeds quota or similar problem happens, rather than
silently discarding data later when writepage is called.

However VFS fails to call ->page_mkwrite() in all the cases where
filesystems need it when blocksize < pagesize. For example when
blocksize = 1024, pagesize = 4096 the following is problematic:
  ftruncate(fd, 0);
  pwrite(fd, buf, 1024, 0);
  map = mmap(NULL, 1024, PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
  map[0] = 'a';       ----> page_mkwrite() for index 0 is called
  ftruncate(fd, 10000); /* or even pwrite(fd, buf, 1, 10000) */
  mremap(map, 1024, 10000, 0);
  map[4095] = 'a';    ----> no page_mkwrite() called

At the moment ->page_mkwrite() is called, filesystem can allocate only
one block for the page because i_size == 1024. Otherwise it would create
blocks beyond i_size which is generally undesirable. But later at
->writepage() time, we also need to store data at offset 4095 but we
don't have block allocated for it.

This patch introduces a helper function filesystems can use to have
->page_mkwrite() called at all the necessary moments.

f35407acce mm: numa: Do not mark PTEs pte_numa when splitting huge pages
commit abc40bd2eeb77eb7c2effcaf63154aad929a1d5f upstream.

This patch reverts 1ba6e0b50b ("mm: numa: split_huge_page: transfer the
NUMA type from the pmd to the pte"). If a huge page is being split due
a protection change and the tail will be in a PROT_NONE vma then NUMA
hinting PTEs are temporarily created in the protected VMA.

 VM_RW|VM_PROTNONE
|-----------------|
      ^
      split here

In the specific case above, it should get fixed up by change_pte_range()
but there is a window of opportunity for weirdness to happen. Similarly,
if a huge page is shrunk and split during a protection update but before
pmd_numa is cleared then a pte_numa can be left behind.

Instead of adding complexity trying to deal with the case, this patch
will not mark PTEs NUMA when splitting a huge page. NUMA hinting faults
will not be triggered which is marginal in comparison to the complexity
in dealing with the corner cases during THP split.

183c062c51 mm, thp: move invariant bug check out of loop in __split_huge_page_map
commit f8303c2582b889351e261ff18c4d8eb197a77db2 upstream.

In __split_huge_page_map(), the check for page_mapcount(page) is
invariant within the for loop.  Because of the fact that the macro is
implemented using atomic_read(), the redundant check cannot be optimized
away by the compiler leading to unnecessary read to the page structure.

This patch moves the invariant bug check out of the loop so that it will
be done only once.  On a 3.16-rc1 based kernel, the execution time of a
microbenchmark that broke up 1000 transparent huge pages using munmap()
had an execution time of 38,245us and 38,548us with and without the
patch respectively.  The performance gain is about 1%.

d081edee3a oom_kill: add rcu_read_lock() into find_lock_task_mm()
commit 4d4048be8a93769350efa31d2482a038b7de73d0 upstream.

find_lock_task_mm() expects it is called under rcu or tasklist lock, but
it seems that at least oom_unkillable_task()->task_in_mem_cgroup() and
mem_cgroup_out_of_memory()->oom_badness() can call it lockless.

Perhaps we could fix the callers, but this patch simply adds rcu lock
into find_lock_task_mm().  This also allows to simplify a bit one of its
callers, oom_kill_process().

return from the loop, we need "bool ret" and "break".

While at it, swap the names of task_struct's (the argument and the
local).  This cleans up the code a little bit and avoids the unnecessary
initialization.

4940a48e7d oom_kill: change oom_kill.c to use for_each_thread()
commit 1da4db0cd5c8a31d4468ec906b413e75e604b465 upstream.

Change oom_kill.c to use for_each_thread() rather than the racy
while_each_thread() which can loop forever if we race with exit.

Note also that most users were buggy even if while_each_thread() was
fine, the task can exit even _before_ rcu_read_lock().

Fortunately the new for_each_thread() only requires the stable
task_struct, so this change fixes both problems.

9afaddd978 percpu: perform tlb flush after pcpu_map_pages() failure
commit 849f5169097e1ba35b90ac9df76b5bb6f9c0aabd upstream.

If pcpu_map_pages() fails midway, it unmaps the already mapped pages.
Currently, it doesn't flush tlb after the partial unmapping.  This may
be okay in most cases as the established mapping hasn't been used at
that point but it can go wrong and when it goes wrong it'd be
extremely difficult to track down.

5df644fd60 percpu: fix pcpu_alloc_pages() failure path
commit f0d279654dea22b7a6ad34b9334aee80cda62cde upstream.

When pcpu_alloc_pages() fails midway, pcpu_free_pages() is invoked to
free what has already been allocated.  The invocation is across the
whole requested range and pcpu_free_pages() will try to free all
non-NULL pages; unfortunately, this is incorrect as
pcpu_get_pages_and_bitmap(), unlike what its comment suggests, doesn't
clear the pages array and thus the array may have entries from the
previous invocations making the partial failure path free incorrect
pages.

Fix it by open-coding the partial freeing of the already allocated
pages.

1144d70b37 mm, thp: do not allow thp faults to avoid cpuset restrictions
commit b104a35d32025ca740539db2808aa3385d0f30eb upstream.

The page allocator relies on __GFP_WAIT to determine if ALLOC_CPUSET
should be set in allocflags.  ALLOC_CPUSET controls if a page allocation
should be restricted only to the set of allowed cpuset mems.

Transparent hugepages clears __GFP_WAIT when defrag is disabled to prevent
the fault path from using memory compaction or direct reclaim.  Thus, it
is unfairly able to allocate outside of its cpuset mems restriction as a
side-effect.

This patch ensures that ALLOC_CPUSET is only cleared when the gfp mask is
truly GFP_ATOMIC by verifying it is also not a thp allocation.

32226c2068 mm: hugetlb: fix copy_hugetlb_page_range()
commit 0253d634e0803a8376a0d88efee0bf523d8673f9 upstream.

Commit 4a705fef9862 ("hugetlb: fix copy_hugetlb_page_range() to handle
migration/hwpoisoned entry") changed the order of
huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() and huge_ptep_get(), which leads to breakage
in some workloads like hugepage-backed heap allocation via libhugetlbfs.
This patch fixes it.

The test program for the problem is shown below:

  $ cat heap.c
  #include <unistd.h>
  #include <stdlib.h>
  #include <string.h>

  #define HPS 0x200000

  int main() {
  	int i;
  	char *p = malloc(HPS);
  	memset(p, '1', HPS);
  	for (i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
  		if (!fork()) {
  			memset(p, '2', HPS);
  			p = malloc(HPS);
  			memset(p, '3', HPS);
  			free(p);
  			return 0;
  		}
  	}
  	sleep(1);
  	free(p);
  	return 0;
  }

  $ export HUGETLB_MORECORE=yes ; export HUGETLB_NO_PREFAULT= ; hugectl --heap ./heap

Fixes 4a705fef9862 ("hugetlb: fix copy_hugetlb_page_range() to handle
migration/hwpoisoned entry"), so is applicable to -stable kernels which

6264198b34 slab_common: fix the check for duplicate slab names
commit 694617474e33b8603fc76e090ed7d09376514b1a upstream.

The patch 3e374919b314f20e2a04f641ebc1093d758f66a4 is supposed to fix the
problem where kmem_cache_create incorrectly reports duplicate cache name
and fails. The problem is described in the header of that patch.

However, the patch doesn't really fix the problem because of these
reasons:

* the logic to test for debugging is reversed. It was intended to perform
  the check only if slub debugging is enabled (which implies that caches
  with the same parameters are not merged). Therefore, there should be
  #if !defined(CONFIG_SLUB) || defined(CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON)
  The current code has the condition reversed and performs the test if
  debugging is disabled.

* slub debugging may be enabled or disabled based on kernel command line,
  CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON is just the default settings. Therefore the test
  based on definition of CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON is unreliable.

This patch fixes the problem by removing the test
"!defined(CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON)". Therefore, duplicate names are never
checked if the SLUB allocator is used.

Note to stable kernel maintainers: when backporint this patch, please
backport also the patch 3e374919b314f20e2a04f641ebc1093d758f66a4.

a654d23f04 slab_common: Do not check for duplicate slab names
commit 3e374919b314f20e2a04f641ebc1093d758f66a4 upstream.

SLUB can alias multiple slab kmem_create_requests to one slab cache to save
memory and increase the cache hotness. As a result the name of the slab can be
stale. Only check the name for duplicates if we are in debug mode where we do
not merge multiple caches.

This fixes the following problem reported by Jonathan Brassow:

  The problem with kmem_cache* is this:

  *) Assume CONFIG_SLUB is set
  1) kmem_cache_create(name="foo-a")
  - creates new kmem_cache structure
  2) kmem_cache_create(name="foo-b")
  - If identical cache characteristics, it will be merged with the previously
    created cache associated with "foo-a".  The cache's refcount will be
    incremented and an alias will be created via sysfs_slab_alias().
  3) kmem_cache_destroy(<ptr>)
  - Attempting to destroy cache associated with "foo-a", but instead the
    refcount is simply decremented.  I don't even think the sysfs aliases are
    ever removed...
  4) kmem_cache_create(name="foo-a")
  - This FAILS because kmem_cache_sanity_check colides with the existing
    name ("foo-a") associated with the non-removed cache.

  This is a problem for RAID (specifically dm-raid) because the name used
  for the kmem_cache_create is ("raid%d-%p", level, mddev).  If the cache
  persists for long enough, the memory address of an old mddev will be
  reused for a new mddev - causing an identical formulation of the cache
  name.  Even though kmem_cache_destory had long ago been used to delete
  the old cache, the merging of caches has cause the name and cache of that
  old instance to be preserved and causes a colision (and thus failure) in
  kmem_cache_create().  I see this regularly in my testing.

7dc7fb432b shmem: fix splicing from a hole while it's punched
commit b1a366500bd537b50c3aad26dc7df083ec03a448 upstream.

shmem_fault() is the actual culprit in trinity's hole-punch starvation,
and the most significant cause of such problems: since a page faulted is
one that then appears page_mapped(), needing unmap_mapping_range() and
i_mmap_mutex to be unmapped again.

But it is not the only way in which a page can be brought into a hole in
the radix_tree while that hole is being punched; and Vlastimil's testing
implies that if enough other processors are busy filling in the hole,
then shmem_undo_range() can be kept from completing indefinitely.

shmem_file_splice_read() is the main other user of SGP_CACHE, which can
instantiate shmem pagecache pages in the read-only case (without holding
i_mutex, so perhaps concurrently with a hole-punch).  Probably it's
silly not to use SGP_READ already (using the ZERO_PAGE for holes): which
ought to be safe, but might bring surprises - not a change to be rushed.

shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() is an internal interface used by
drivers/gpu/drm GEM (and next by uprobes): it should be okay.  And
shmem_file_read_iter() uses the SGP_DIRTY variant of SGP_CACHE, when
called internally by the kernel (perhaps for a stacking filesystem,
which might rely on holes to be reserved): it's unclear whether it could
be provoked to keep hole-punch busy or not.

We could apply the same umbrella as now used in shmem_fault() to
shmem_file_splice_read() and the others; but it looks ugly, and use over
a range raises questions - should it actually be per page? can these get
starved themselves?

The origin of this part of the problem is my v3.1 commit d0823576bf
("mm: pincer in truncate_inode_pages_range"), once it was duplicated
into shmem.c.  It seemed like a nice idea at the time, to ensure
(barring RCU lookup fuzziness) that there's an instant when the entire
hole is empty; but the indefinitely repeated scans to ensure that make
it vulnerable.

Revert that "enhancement" to hole-punch from shmem_undo_range(), but
retain the unproblematic rescanning when it's truncating; add a couple
of comments there.

Remove the "indices[0] >= end" test: that is now handled satisfactorily
by the inner loop, and mem_cgroup_uncharge_start()/end() are too light
to be worth avoiding here.

But if we do not always loop indefinitely, we do need to handle the case
of swap swizzled back to page before shmem_free_swap() gets it: add a
retry for that case, as suggested by Konstantin Khlebnikov; and for the
case of page swizzled back to swap, as suggested by Johannes Weiner.

887675c981 shmem: fix faulting into a hole, not taking i_mutex
commit 8e205f779d1443a94b5ae81aa359cb535dd3021e upstream.

Commit f00cdc6df7d7 ("shmem: fix faulting into a hole while it's
punched") was buggy: Sasha sent a lockdep report to remind us that
grabbing i_mutex in the fault path is a no-no (write syscall may already
hold i_mutex while faulting user buffer).

We tried a completely different approach (see following patch) but that
proved inadequate: good enough for a rational workload, but not good
enough against trinity - which forks off so many mappings of the object
that contention on i_mmap_mutex while hole-puncher holds i_mutex builds
into serious starvation when concurrent faults force the puncher to fall
back to single-page unmap_mapping_range() searches of the i_mmap tree.

So return to the original umbrella approach, but keep away from i_mutex
this time.  We really don't want to bloat every shmem inode with a new
mutex or completion, just to protect this unlikely case from trinity.
So extend the original with wait_queue_head on stack at the hole-punch
end, and wait_queue item on the stack at the fault end.

This involves further use of i_lock to guard against the races: lockdep
has been happy so far, and I see fs/inode.c:unlock_new_inode() holds
i_lock around wake_up_bit(), which is comparable to what we do here.
i_lock is more convenient, but we could switch to shmem's info->lock.

This issue has been tagged with CVE-2014-4171, which will require commit
f00cdc6df7d7 and this and the following patch to be backported: we
suggest to 3.1+, though in fact the trinity forkbomb effect might go
back as far as 2.6.16, when madvise(,,MADV_REMOVE) came in - or might
not, since much has changed, with i_mmap_mutex a spinlock before 3.0.
Anyone running trinity on 3.0 and earlier? I don't think we need care.

1ccc3ffad1 shmem: fix faulting into a hole while it's punched
commit f00cdc6df7d7cfcabb5b740911e6788cb0802bdb upstream.

Trinity finds that mmap access to a hole while it's punched from shmem
can prevent the madvise(MADV_REMOVE) or fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE)
from completing, until the reader chooses to stop; with the puncher's
hold on i_mutex locking out all other writers until it can complete.

It appears that the tmpfs fault path is too light in comparison with its
hole-punching path, lacking an i_data_sem to obstruct it; but we don't
want to slow down the common case.

Extend shmem_fallocate()'s existing range notification mechanism, so
shmem_fault() can refrain from faulting pages into the hole while it's
punched, waiting instead on i_mutex (when safe to sleep; or repeatedly
faulting when not).

The cause is that cpuset_mems_allowed() try to take
mutex_lock(&callback_mutex) under the rcu_read_lock(which was hold in
__mpol_dup()). And in cpuset_mems_allowed(), the access to cpuset is
under rcu_read_lock, so in __mpol_dup, we can reduce the rcu_read_lock
protection region to protect the access to cpuset only in
current_cpuset_is_being_rebound(). So that we can avoid this bug.

This patch is a temporary solution that just addresses the bug
mentioned above, can not fix the long-standing issue about cpuset.mems
rebinding on fork():

"When the forker's task_struct is duplicated (which includes
 ->mems_allowed) and it races with an update to cpuset_being_rebound
 in update_tasks_nodemask() then the task's mems_allowed doesn't get
 updated. And the child task's mems_allowed can be wrong if the
 cpuset's nodemask changes before the child has been added to the
 cgroup's tasklist."

f76d0efeb6 mm: fix crashes from mbind() merging vmas
commit d05f0cdcbe6388723f1900c549b4850360545201 upstream.

In v2.6.34 commit 9d8cebd4bc ("mm: fix mbind vma merge problem")
introduced vma merging to mbind(), but it should have also changed the
convention of passing start vma from queue_pages_range() (formerly
check_range()) to new_vma_page(): vma merging may have already freed
that structure, resulting in BUG at mm/mempolicy.c:1738 and probably
worse crashes.

9b576da0f7 hugetlb: fix copy_hugetlb_page_range() to handle migration/hwpoisoned entry
commit 4a705fef986231a3e7a6b1a6d3c37025f021f49f upstream.

There's a race between fork() and hugepage migration, as a result we try
to "dereference" a swap entry as a normal pte, causing kernel panic.
The cause of the problem is that copy_hugetlb_page_range() can't handle
"swap entry" family (migration entry and hwpoisoned entry) so let's fix
it.

f26bff271a mm: vmscan: clear kswapd's special reclaim powers before exiting
commit 71abdc15adf8c702a1dd535f8e30df50758848d2 upstream.

When kswapd exits, it can end up taking locks that were previously held
by allocating tasks while they waited for reclaim.  Lockdep currently
warns about this:

This is because the kswapd thread is still marked as a reclaimer at the
time of exit.  But because it is exiting, nobody is actually waiting on
it to make reclaim progress anymore, and it's nothing but a regular
thread at this point.  Be tidy and strip it of all its powers
(PF_MEMALLOC, PF_SWAPWRITE, PF_KSWAPD, and the lockdep reclaim state)
before returning from the thread function.

ef15164862 mm: fix sleeping function warning from __put_anon_vma
commit 7f39dda9d86fb4f4f17af0de170decf125726f8c upstream.

Trinity reports BUG:

  sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/rwsem.c:47
  in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 5787, name: trinity-c27

__might_sleep < down_write < __put_anon_vma < page_get_anon_vma <
migrate_pages < compact_zone < compact_zone_order < try_to_compact_pages ..

Right, since conversion to mutex then rwsem, we should not put_anon_vma()
from inside an rcu_read_lock()ed section: fix the two places that did so.
And add might_sleep() to anon_vma_free(), as suggested by Peter Zijlstra.

15e09f8241 mm/memory-failure.c: don't let collect_procs() skip over processes for MF_ACTION_REQUIRED
commit 74614de17db6fb472370c426d4f934d8d616edf2 upstream.

When Linux sees an "action optional" machine check (where h/w has reported
an error that is not in the current execution path) we generally do not
want to signal a process, since most processes do not have a SIGBUS
handler - we'd just prematurely terminate the process for a problem that
they might never actually see.

task_early_kill() decides whether to consider a process - and it checks
whether this specific process has been marked for early signals with
"prctl", or if the system administrator has requested early signals for
all processes using /proc/sys/vm/memory_failure_early_kill.

But for MF_ACTION_REQUIRED case we must not defer.  The error is in the
execution path of the current thread so we must send the SIGBUS
immediatley.

Fix by passing a flag argument through collect_procs*() to
task_early_kill() so it knows whether we can defer or must take action.

4451dd2149 mm/memory-failure.c-failure: send right signal code to correct thread
commit a70ffcac741d31a406c1d2b832ae43d658e7e1cf upstream.

When a thread in a multi-threaded application hits a machine check because
of an uncorrectable error in memory - we want to send the SIGBUS with
si.si_code = BUS_MCEERR_AR to that thread.  Currently we fail to do that
if the active thread is not the primary thread in the process.
collect_procs() just finds primary threads and this test:

	if ((flags & MF_ACTION_REQUIRED) && t == current) {

will see that the thread we found isn't the current thread and so send a
si.si_code = BUS_MCEERR_AO to the primary (and nothing to the active
thread at this time).

We can fix this by checking whether "current" shares the same mm with the
process that collect_procs() said owned the page.  If so, we send the
SIGBUS to current (with code BUS_MCEERR_AR).

16838de6ab mm: vmscan: do not throttle based on pfmemalloc reserves if node has no ZONE_NORMAL
commit 675becce15f320337499bc1a9356260409a5ba29 upstream.

throttle_direct_reclaim() is meant to trigger during swap-over-network
during which the min watermark is treated as a pfmemalloc reserve.  It
throttes on the first node in the zonelist but this is flawed.

The user-visible impact is that a process running on CPU whose local
memory node has no ZONE_NORMAL will stall for prolonged periods of time,
possibly indefintely.  This is due to throttle_direct_reclaim thinking the
pfmemalloc reserves are depleted when in fact they don't exist on that
node.

On a NUMA machine running a 32-bit kernel (I know) allocation requests
from CPUs on node 1 would detect no pfmemalloc reserves and the process
gets throttled.  This patch adjusts throttling of direct reclaim to
throttle based on the first node in the zonelist that has a usable
ZONE_NORMAL or lower zone.

ee7f7615f9 mm/compaction: make isolate_freepages start at pageblock boundary
commit 49e068f0b73dd042c186ffa9b420a9943e90389a upstream.

The compaction freepage scanner implementation in isolate_freepages()
starts by taking the current cc->free_pfn value as the first pfn.  In a
for loop, it scans from this first pfn to the end of the pageblock, and
then subtracts pageblock_nr_pages from the first pfn to obtain the first
pfn for the next for loop iteration.

This means that when cc->free_pfn starts at offset X rather than being
aligned on pageblock boundary, the scanner will start at offset X in all
scanned pageblock, ignoring potentially many free pages.  Currently this
can happen when

 a) zone's end pfn is not pageblock aligned, or

 b) through zone->compact_cached_free_pfn with CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE
    enabled and a hole spanning the beginning of a pageblock

This patch fixes the problem by aligning the initial pfn in
isolate_freepages() to pageblock boundary.  This also permits replacing
the end-of-pageblock alignment within the for loop with a simple
pageblock_nr_pages increment.

87c4475c90 mm: compaction: detect when scanners meet in isolate_freepages
commit 7ed695e069c3cbea5e1fd08f84a04536da91f584 upstream.

Compaction of a zone is finished when the migrate scanner (which begins
at the zone's lowest pfn) meets the free page scanner (which begins at
the zone's highest pfn).  This is detected in compact_zone() and in the
case of direct compaction, the compact_blockskip_flush flag is set so
that kswapd later resets the cached scanner pfn's, and a new compaction
may again start at the zone's borders.

The meeting of the scanners can happen during either scanner's activity.
However, it may currently fail to be detected when it occurs in the free
page scanner, due to two problems.  First, isolate_freepages() keeps
free_pfn at the highest block where it isolated pages from, for the
purposes of not missing the pages that are returned back to allocator
when migration fails.  Second, failing to isolate enough free pages due
to scanners meeting results in -ENOMEM being returned by
migrate_pages(), which makes compact_zone() bail out immediately without
calling compact_finished() that would detect scanners meeting.

This failure to detect scanners meeting might result in repeated
attempts at compaction of a zone that keep starting from the cached
pfn's close to the meeting point, and quickly failing through the
-ENOMEM path, without the cached pfns being reset, over and over.  This
has been observed (through additional tracepoints) in the third phase of
the mmtests stress-highalloc benchmark, where the allocator runs on an
otherwise idle system.  The problem was observed in the DMA32 zone,
which was used as a fallback to the preferred Normal zone, but on the
4GB system it was actually the largest zone.  The problem is even
amplified for such fallback zone - the deferred compaction logic, which
could (after being fixed by a previous patch) reset the cached scanner
pfn's, is only applied to the preferred zone and not for the fallbacks.

The problem in the third phase of the benchmark was further amplified by
commit 81c0a2bb515f ("mm: page_alloc: fair zone allocator policy") which
resulted in a non-deterministic regression of the allocation success
rate from ~85% to ~65%.  This occurs in about half of benchmark runs,
making bisection problematic.  It is unlikely that the commit itself is
buggy, but it should put more pressure on the DMA32 zone during phases 1
and 2, which may leave it more fragmented in phase 3 and expose the bugs
that this patch fixes.

The fix is to make scanners meeting in isolate_freepage() stay that way,
and to check in compact_zone() for scanners meeting when migrate_pages()
returns -ENOMEM.  The result is that compact_finished() also detects
scanners meeting and sets the compact_blockskip_flush flag to make
kswapd reset the scanner pfn's.

The results in stress-highalloc benchmark show that the "regression" by
commit 81c0a2bb515f in phase 3 no longer occurs, and phase 1 and 2
allocation success rates are also significantly improved.
