git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams: "Outside of the new ACPI-NFIT hot-add support this pull request is more notable for what it does not contain, than what it does. There were a handful of development topics this cycle, dax get_user_pages, dax fsync, and raw block dax, that need more more iteration and will wait for 4.5. The patches to make devm and the pmem driver NUMA aware have been in -next for several weeks. The hot-add support has not, but is contained to the NFIT driver and is passing unit tests. The coredump support is straightforward and was looked over by Jeff. All of it has received a 0day build success notification across 107 configs. Summary: - Add support for the ACPI 6.0 NFIT hot add mechanism to process updates of the NFIT at runtime. - Teach the coredump implementation how to filter out DAX mappings. - Introduce NUMA hints for allocations made by the pmem driver, and as a side effect all devm allocations now hint their NUMA node by default" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: coredump: add DAX filtering for FDPIC ELF coredumps coredump: add DAX filtering for ELF coredumps acpi: nfit: Add support for hot-add nfit: in acpi_nfit_init, break on a 0-length table pmem, memremap: convert to numa aware allocations devm_memremap_pages: use numa_mem_id devm: make allocations numa aware by default devm_memremap: convert to return ERR_PTR devm_memunmap: use devres_release() pmem: kill memremap_pmem() x86, mm: quiet arch_add_memory()

2015-11-09coredump: add DAX filtering for ELF coredumpsRoss Zwisler1-10/+12
Add two new flags to the existing coredump mechanism for ELF files to allow us to explicitly filter DAX mappings. This is desirable because DAX mappings, like hugetlb mappings, have the potential to be very large. Update the coredump_filter documentation in Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt so that it addresses the new DAX coredump flags. Also update the documented default value of coredump_filter to be consistent with the core(5) man page. The documentation being updated talks about bit 4, Dump ELF headers, which is enabled if CONFIG_CORE_DUMP_DEFAULT_ELF_HEADERS is turned on in the kernel config. This kernel config option defaults to "y" if both ELF binaries and coredump are enabled.

2015-11-07mm: make compound_head() robustKirill A. Shutemov1-2/+2
Hugh has pointed that compound_head() call can be unsafe in some context. There's one example: CPU0 CPU1 isolate_migratepages_block() page_count() compound_head() !!PageTail() == true put_page() tail->first_page = NULL head = tail->first_page alloc_pages(__GFP_COMP) prep_compound_page() tail->first_page = head __SetPageTail(p); !!PageTail() == true <head == NULL dereferencing> The race is pure theoretical. I don't it's possible to trigger it in practice. But who knows. We can fix the race by changing how encode PageTail() and compound_head() within struct page to be able to update them in one shot. The patch introduces page->compound_head into third double word block in front of compound_dtor and compound_order. Bit 0 encodes PageTail() and the rest bits are pointer to head page if bit zero is set. The patch moves page->pmd_huge_pte out of word, just in case if an architecture defines pgtable_t into something what can have the bit 0 set. hugetlb_cgroup uses page->lru.next in the second tail page to store pointer struct hugetlb_cgroup. The patch switch it to use page->private in the second tail page instead. The space is free since ->first_page is removed from the union. The patch also opens possibility to remove HUGETLB_CGROUP_MIN_ORDER limitation, since there's now space in first tail page to store struct hugetlb_cgroup pointer. But that's out of scope of the patch. That means page->compound_head shares storage space with: - page->lru.next; - page->next; - page->rcu_head.next; That's too long list to be absolutely sure, but looks like nobody uses bit 0 of the word. page->rcu_head.next guaranteed[1] to have bit 0 clean as long as we use call_rcu(), call_rcu_bh(), call_rcu_sched(), or call_srcu(). But future call_rcu_lazy() is not allowed as it makes use of the bit and we can get false positive PageTail().

2015-11-07mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to ↵Mel Gorman1-6/+8
sleep and avoiding waking kswapd __GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve". Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic reserves. This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic, cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use __GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake kswapd for background reclaim. This patch then converts a number of sites o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag. o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress. o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to flag manipulations. o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons. In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH. The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracking updates from Steven Rostedt: "Most of the changes are clean ups and small fixes. Some of them have stable tags to them. I searched through my INBOX just as the merge window opened and found lots of patches to pull. I ran them through all my tests and they were in linux-next for a few days. Features added this release: ---------------------------- - Module globbing. You can now filter function tracing to several modules. # echo '*:mod:*snd*' > set_ftrace_filter (Dmitry Safonov) - Tracer specific options are now visible even when the tracer is not active. It was rather annoying that you can only see and modify tracer options after enabling the tracer. Now they are in the options/ directory even when the tracer is not active. Although they are still only visible when the tracer is active in the trace_options file. - Trace options are now per instance (although some of the tracer specific options are global) - New tracefs file: set_event_pid. If any pid is added to this file, then all events in the instance will filter out events that are not part of this pid. sched_switch and sched_wakeup events handle next and the wakee pids" * tag 'trace-v4.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (68 commits) tracefs: Fix refcount imbalance in start_creating() tracing: Put back comma for empty fields in boot string parsing tracing: Apply tracer specific options from kernel command line. tracing: Add some documentation about set_event_pid ring_buffer: Remove unneeded smp_wmb() before wakeup of reader benchmark tracing: Allow dumping traces without tracking trace started cpus ring_buffer: Fix more races when terminating the producer in the benchmark ring_buffer: Do no not complete benchmark reader too early tracing: Remove redundant TP_ARGS redefining tracing: Rename max_stack_lock to stack_trace_max_lock tracing: Allow arch-specific stack tracer recordmcount: arm64: Replace the ignored mcount call into nop recordmcount: Fix endianness handling bug for nop_mcount tracepoints: Fix documentation of RCU lockdep checks tracing: ftrace_event_is_function() can return boolean tracing: is_legal_op() can return boolean ring-buffer: rb_event_is_commit() can return boolean ring-buffer: rb_per_cpu_empty() can return boolean ring_buffer: ring_buffer_empty{cpu}() can return boolean ring-buffer: rb_is_reader_page() can return boolean ...

Again at this time, the update looks fairly calm; no big changes in either ALSA core or ASoC infrastructures, rather all small cleanups, in addition to the new stuff as usual.

2015-11-06mm, slub, kasan: enable user tracking by default with KASAN=yAndrey Ryabinin1-2/+1
It's recommended to have slub's user tracking enabled with CONFIG_KASAN, because: a) User tracking disables slab merging which improves detecting out-of-bounds accesses. b) User tracking metadata acts as redzone which also improves detecting out-of-bounds accesses. c) User tracking provides additional information about object. This information helps to understand bugs. Currently it is not enabled by default. Besides recompiling the kernel with KASAN and reinstalling it, user also have to change the boot cmdline, which is not very handy. Enable slub user tracking by default with KASAN=y, since there is no good reason to not do this.

There's an odd line about "Locked" at the head of the description of /proc/meminfo: it seems to have strayed from /proc/PID/smaps, so lead it back there. Move "Swap" and "SwapPss" descriptions down above it, to match the order in the file (though "PageSize"s still undescribed). The example of "Locked: 374 kB" (the same as Pss, neither Rss nor Size) is so unlikely as to be misleading: just make it 0, this is /bin/bash text; which would be "dw" (disabled write) not "de" (do not expand).

2015-11-06mm: page migration avoid touching newpage until no going backHugh Dickins1-10/+9
We have had trouble in the past from the way in which page migration's newpage is initialized in dribs and drabs - see commit 8bdd63809160 ("mm: fix direct reclaim writeback regression") which proposed a cleanup. We have no actual problem now, but I think the procedure would be clearer (and alternative get_new_page pools safer to implement) if we assert that newpage is not touched until we are sure that it's going to be used - except for taking the trylock on it in __unmap_and_move(). So shift the early initializations from move_to_new_page() into migrate_page_move_mapping(), mapping and NULL-mapping paths. Similarly migrate_huge_page_move_mapping(), but its NULL-mapping path can just be deleted: you cannot reach hugetlbfs_migrate_page() with a NULL mapping. Adjust stages 3 to 8 in the Documentation file accordingly. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: "Kirill A.

2015-11-06mm: rmap use pte lock not mmap_sem to set PageMlockedHugh Dickins1-45/+16
KernelThreadSanitizer (ktsan) has shown that the down_read_trylock() of mmap_sem in try_to_unmap_one() (when going to set PageMlocked on a page found mapped in a VM_LOCKED vma) is ineffective against races with exit_mmap()'s munlock_vma_pages_all(), because mmap_sem is not held when tearing down an mm. But that's okay, those races are benign; and although we've believed for years in that ugly down_read_trylock(), it's unsuitable for the job, and frustrates the good intention of setting PageMlocked when it fails. It just doesn't matter if here we read vm_flags an instant before or after a racing mlock() or munlock() or exit_mmap() sets or clears VM_LOCKED: the syscalls (or exit) work their way up the address space (taking pt locks after updating vm_flags) to establish the final state. We do still need to be careful never to mark a page Mlocked (hence unevictable) by any race that will not be corrected shortly after. The page lock protects from many of the races, but not all (a page is not necessarily locked when it's unmapped). But the pte lock we just dropped is good to cover the rest (and serializes even with munlock_vma_pages_all(), so no special barriers required): now hold on to the pte lock while calling mlock_vma_page(). Is that lock ordering safe? Yes, that's how follow_page_pte() calls it, and how page_remove_rmap() calls the complementary clear_page_mlock(). This fixes the following case (though not a case which anyone has complained of), which mmap_sem did not: truncation's preliminary unmap_mapping_range() is supposed to remove even the anonymous COWs of filecache pages, and that might race with try_to_unmap_one() on a VM_LOCKED vma, so that mlock_vma_page() sets PageMlocked just after zap_pte_range() unmaps the page, causing "Bad page state (mlocked)" when freed. The pte lock protects against this. You could say that it also protects against the more ordinary case, racing with the preliminary unmapping of a filecache page itself: but in our current tree, that's independently protected by i_mmap_rwsem; and that race would be why "Bad page state (mlocked)" was seen before commit 48ec833b7851 ("Revert mm/memory.c: share the i_mmap_rwsem"). Vlastimil Babka points out another race which this patch protects against. try_to_unmap_one() might reach its mlock_vma_page() TestSetPageMlocked a moment after munlock_vma_pages_all() did its Phase 1 TestClearPageMlocked: leaving PageMlocked and unevictable when it should be evictable. mmap_sem is ineffective because exit_mmap() does not hold it; page lock ineffective because __munlock_pagevec() only takes it afterwards, in Phase 2; pte lock is effective because __munlock_pagevec_fill() takes it to get the page, after VM_LOCKED was cleared from vm_flags, so visible to try_to_unmap_one. Kirill Shutemov points out that if the compiler chooses to implement a "vma->vm_flags &= VM_WHATEVER" or "vma->vm_flags |= VM_WHATEVER" operation with an intermediate store of unrelated bits set, since I'm here foregoing its usual protection by mmap_sem, try_to_unmap_one() might catch sight of a spurious VM_LOCKED in vm_flags, and make the wrong decision. This does not appear to be an immediate problem, but we may want to define vm_flags accessors in future, to guard against such a possibility. While we're here, make a related optimization in try_to_munmap_one(): if it's doing TTU_MUNLOCK, then there's no point at all in descending the page tables and getting the pt lock, unless the vma is VM_LOCKED. Yes, that can change racily, but it can change racily even without the optimization: it's not critical. Far better not to waste time here. Stopped short of separating try_to_munlock_one() from try_to_munmap_one() on this occasion, but that's probably the sensible next step - with a rename, given that try_to_munlock()'s business is to try to set Mlocked. Updated the unevictable-lru Documentation, to remove its reference to mmap semaphore, but found a few more updates needed in just that area.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo: "The cgroup core saw several significant updates this cycle: - percpu_rwsem for threadgroup locking is reinstated. This was temporarily dropped due to down_write latency issues. Oleg's rework of percpu_rwsem which is scheduled to be merged in this merge window resolves the issue. - On the v2 hierarchy, when controllers are enabled and disabled, all operations are atomic and can fail and revert cleanly. This allows ->can_attach() failure which is necessary for cpu RT slices. - Tasks now stay associated with the original cgroups after exit until released. This allows tracking resources held by zombies (e.g. pids) and makes it easy to find out where zombies came from on the v2 hierarchy. The pids controller was broken before these changes as zombies escaped the limits; unfortunately, updating this behavior required too many invasive changes and I don't think it's a good idea to backport them, so the pids controller on 4.3, the first version which included the pids controller, will stay broken at least until I'm sure about the cgroup core changes. - Optimization of a couple common tests using static_key" * 'for-4.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup: (38 commits) cgroup: fix race condition around termination check in css_task_iter_next() blkcg: don't create "io.stat" on the root cgroup cgroup: drop cgroup__DEVEL__legacy_files_on_dfl cgroup: replace error handling in cgroup_init() with WARN_ON()s cgroup: add cgroup_subsys->free() method and use it to fix pids controller cgroup: keep zombies associated with their original cgroups cgroup: make css_set_rwsem a spinlock and rename it to css_set_lock cgroup: don't hold css_set_rwsem across css task iteration cgroup: reorganize css_task_iter functions cgroup: factor out css_set_move_task() cgroup: keep css_set and task lists in chronological order cgroup: make cgroup_destroy_locked() test cgroup_is_populated() cgroup: make css_sets pin the associated cgroups cgroup: relocate cgroup_[try]get/put() cgroup: move check_for_release() invocation cgroup: replace cgroup_has_tasks() with cgroup_is_populated() cgroup: make cgroup->nr_populated count the number of populated css_sets cgroup: remove an unused parameter from cgroup_task_migrate() cgroup: fix too early usage of static_branch_disable() cgroup: make cgroup_update_dfl_csses() migrate all target processes atomically ...
