mm: update_lru_size warn and reset bad lru_size
Though debug kernels have a VM_BUG_ON to help protect from misaccounting lru_size, non-debug kernels are liable to wrap it around: and then the vast unsigned long size draws page reclaim into a loop of repeatedly doing nothing on an empty list, without even a cond_resched(). That soft lockup looks confusingly like an over-busy reclaim scenario, with lots of contention on the lru_lock in shrink_inactive_list(): yet has a totally different origin. Help differentiate with a custom warning in mem_cgroup_update_lru_size(), even in non-debug kernels; and reset the size to avoid the lockup. But the particular bug which suggested this change was mine alone, and since fixed. Make it a WARN_ONCE: the first occurrence is the most informative, a flurry may follow, yet even when rate-limited little more is learnt. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: "Kirill A.

mm/hugetlb: introduce hugetlb_bad_size()
When any unsupported hugepage size is specified, 'hugepagesz=' and 'hugepages=' should be ignored during command line parsing until any supported hugepage size is found. But currently incorrect number of hugepages are allocated when unsupported size is specified as it fails to ignore the 'hugepages=' command. Test case: Note that this is specific to x86 architecture. Boot the kernel with command line option 'hugepagesz=256M hugepages=X'. After boot, dmesg output shows that X number of hugepages of the size 2M is pre-allocated instead of 0. So, to handle such command line options, introduce new routine hugetlb_bad_size. The routine hugetlb_bad_size sets the global variable parsed_valid_hugepagesz. We are using parsed_valid_hugepagesz to save the state when unsupported hugepagesize is found so that we can ignore the 'hugepages=' parameters after that and then reset the variable when supported hugepage size is found. The routine hugetlb_bad_size can be called while setting 'hugepagesz=' parameter in an architecture specific code.

include/linux: apply __malloc attribute
Attach the malloc attribute to a few allocation functions. This helps gcc generate better code by telling it that the return value doesn't alias any existing pointers (which is even more valuable given the pessimizations implied by -fno-strict-aliasing). A simple example of what this allows gcc to do can be seen by looking at the last part of drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset: plane->state = kzalloc(sizeof(*plane->state), GFP_KERNEL); if (plane->state) { plane->state->plane = plane; plane->state->rotation = BIT(DRM_ROTATE_0); } which compiles to e8 99 bf d6 ff callq ffffffff8116d540 <kmem_cache_alloc_trace> 48 85 c0 test %rax,%rax 48 89 83 40 02 00 00 mov %rax,0x240(%rbx) 74 11 je ffffffff814015c4 <drm_atomic_helper_plane_reset+0x64> 48 89 18 mov %rbx,(%rax) 48 8b 83 40 02 00 00 mov 0x240(%rbx),%rax [*] c7 40 40 01 00 00 00 movl $0x1,0x40(%rax) With this patch applied, the instruction at [*] is elided, since the store to plane->state->plane is known to not alter the value of plane->state.

compiler.h: add support for malloc attribute
gcc as far back as at least 3.04 documents the function attribute __malloc__. Add a shorthand for attaching that to a function declaration. This was also suggested by Andi Kleen way back in 2002 [1], but didn't get applied, perhaps because gcc at that time generated the exact same code with and without this attribute. This attribute tells the compiler that the return value (if non-NULL) can be assumed not to alias any other valid pointers at the time of the call. Please note that the documentation for a range of gcc versions (starting from around 4.7) contained a somewhat confusing and self-contradicting text: The malloc attribute is used to tell the compiler that a function may be treated as if any non-NULL pointer it returns cannot alias any other pointer valid when the function returns and *that the memory has undefined content*. [...] Standard functions with this property include malloc and *calloc*. (emphasis mine). The intended meaning has later been clarified [2]: This tells the compiler that a function is malloc-like, i.e., that the pointer P returned by the function cannot alias any other pointer valid when the function returns, and moreover no pointers to valid objects occur in any storage addressed by P. What this means is that we can apply the attribute to kmalloc and friends, and it is ok for the returned memory to have well-defined contents (__GFP_ZERO). But it is not ok to apply it to kmemdup(), nor to other functions which both allocate and possibly initialize the memory with existing pointers. So unless someone is doing something pretty perverted kstrdup() should also be a fine candidate.

mm: rename _count, field of the struct page, to _refcount

They would try to handle it directly and this could break the purpose of page reference count tracepoint. To prevent direct _count modification, this patch rename it to _refcount and add warning message on the code. After that, developer who need to handle reference count will find that field should not be accessed directly.

mm: SLAB freelist randomization
Provides an optional config (CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM) to randomize the SLAB freelist. The list is randomized during initialization of a new set of pages. The order on different freelist sizes is pre-computed at boot for performance. Each kmem_cache has its own randomized freelist. Before pre-computed lists are available freelists are generated dynamically. This security feature reduces the predictability of the kernel SLAB allocator against heap overflows rendering attacks much less stable. For example this attack against SLUB (also applicable against SLAB) would be affected: https://jon.oberheide.org/blog/2010/09/10/linux-kernel-can-slub-overflow/ Also, since v4.6 the freelist was moved at the end of the SLAB. It means a controllable heap is opened to new attacks not yet publicly discussed. A kernel heap overflow can be transformed to multiple use-after-free. This feature makes this type of attack harder too. To generate entropy, we use get_random_bytes_arch because 0 bits of entropy is available in the boot stage. In the worse case this function will fallback to the get_random_bytes sub API. We also generate a shift random number to shift pre-computed freelist for each new set of pages. The config option name is not specific to the SLAB as this approach will be extended to other allocators like SLUB. Performance results highlighted no major changes: Hackbench (running 90 10 times): Before average: 0.0698 After average: 0.0663 (-5.01%) slab_test 1 run on boot. Difference only seen on the 2048 size test being the worse case scenario covered by freelist randomization. New slab pages are constantly being created on the 10000 allocations.

debugobjects: insulate non-fixup logic related to static obj from fixup callbacks
When activating a static object we need make sure that the object is tracked in the object tracker. If it is a non-static object then the activation is illegal. In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in their fixup callbacks. Actually we can put it into debugobjects core. Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks. To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not. If yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke fixup callback. This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test with all debugobjects supports enabled. At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked. Then Change such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected behaviour. For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function stub_timer.

debugobjects: make fixup functions return bool instead of int
I am going to introduce debugobjects infrastructure to USB subsystem. But before this, I found the code of debugobjects could be improved. This patchset will make fixup functions return bool type instead of int. Because fixup only need report success or no. boolean is the 'real' type. This patch (of 7): The object debugging infrastructure core provides some fixup callbacks for the subsystem who use it. These callbacks are called from the debug code whenever a problem in debug_object_init is detected. And debugobjects core suppose them returns 1 when the fixup was successful, otherwise 0. So the return type is boolean. A bad thing is that debug_object_fixup use the return value for arithmetic operation. It confused me that what is the reall return type. Reading over the whole code, I found some place do use the return value incorrectly(see next patch). So why use bool type instead?

fs: poll/select/recvmmsg: use timespec64 for timeout events
struct timespec is not y2038 safe. Even though timespec might be sufficient to represent timeouts, use struct timespec64 here as the plan is to get rid of all timespec reference in the kernel. The patch transitions the common functions: poll_select_set_timeout() and select_estimate_accuracy() to use timespec64. And, all the syscalls that use these functions are transitioned in the same patch. The restart block parameters for poll uses monotonic time. Use timespec64 here as well to assign timeout value. This parameter in the restart block need not change because this only holds the monotonic timestamp at which timeout should occur. And, unsigned long data type should be big enough for this timestamp. The system call interfaces will be handled in a separate series. Compat interfaces need not change as timespec64 is an alias to struct timespec on a 64 bit system.

The function is meant to be a replacement for timespec_add_safe(). The implementation is similar to timespec_add_safe().

fsnotify: avoid spurious EMFILE errors from inotify_init()
Inotify instance is destroyed when all references to it are dropped. That not only means that the corresponding file descriptor needs to be closed but also that all corresponding instance marks are freed (as each mark holds a reference to the inotify instance). However marks are freed only after SRCU period ends which can take some time and thus if user rapidly creates and frees inotify instances, number of existing inotify instances can exceed max_user_instances limit although from user point of view there is always at most one existing instance. Thus inotify_init() returns EMFILE error which is hard to justify from user point of view. This problem is exposed by LTP inotify06 testcase on some machines. We fix the problem by making sure all group marks are properly freed while destroying inotify instance. We wait for SRCU period to end in that path anyway since we have to make sure there is no event being added to the instance while we are tearing down the instance. So it takes only some plumbing to allow for marks to be destroyed in that path as well and not from a dedicated work item.

This includes two new updates for the ftrace infrastructure.
1) With the changing of the code for filtering events by pid, from a list of pids to a bitmask, we can now easily implement following forks. With a new tracing option "event-fork" which, when set, will have tasks with pids in set_event_pid, when they fork, to have their child pids added to set_event_pid and the child will be traced as well. Note, if "event-fork" is set and a task with its pid in set_event_pid exits, its pid will be removed from set_event_pid 2) The addition of Tom Zanussi's hist triggers. This includes a very thorough documentatino on how to use the hist triggers with events. This introduces a quick and easy way to get histogram data from events and their fields. Some other cleanups and updates were added as well. Like Masami Hiramatsu added test cases for the event trigger and hist triggers. Also I added a speed up of filtering by using a temp buffer when filters are set. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAABAgAGBQJXPIv1AAoJEKKk/i67LK/8WZcIAIaaHJMctDCfXPg8OoT1LLI/ yUxgWvQRM7iwGV8YjuaXlyxTDJU0XVoNpPF5ZGiePlRDSCUboNvgcNVHRusJJKqM oV1BTsq2x5eY12agA8kSOHcqGP7saqa2H+RJ4+3jNB/DTtOwJ8RzodlqWQ7PZbRG 0IDvD7buh9NeDS2am835RB+Xhy/jNBrkoJjpvMNaG5nZypsMq8D524RzyBm6RYjp p+KLo3/yDc0+khv1hIs1c/w+LXNs7XtpPjpAKBa8B4xOiXndh3IosjX3JnL+0f+6 EvXt6qRfBKCE5o2BM397qjE3V/L0/SfzTijuL1WMd88ZvPGqwcsslQekmxKAb1E= =WBTB -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'trace-v4.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "This includes two new updates for the ftrace infrastructure. - With the changing of the code for filtering events by pid, from a list of pids to a bitmask, we can now easily implement following forks.

This is the bulk of GPIO changes for kernel cycle v4.7:
Core infrastructural changes: - Support for natively single-ended GPIO driver stages. This means that if the hardware has registers to configure open drain or open source configuration, we use that rather than (as we did before) try to emulate it by switching the line to an input to get high impedance. This is also documented throughly in Documentation/gpio/driver.txt for those of you who did not understand one word of what I just wrote. - Start to do away with the unnecessarily complex and unitelligible ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB and ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB, another evolutional artifact from the time when the GPIO subsystem was unmaintained. Archs can now just select GPIOLIB and be done with it, cleanups to arches will trickle in for the next kernel. Some minor archs ACKed the changes immediately so these are included in this pull request. - Advancing the use of the data pointer inside the GPIO device for storing driver data by switching the PowerPC, Super-H Unicore and a few other subarches or subsystem drivers in ALSA SoC, Input, serial, SSB, staging etc to use it. - The initialization now reads the input/output state of the GPIO lines, so that each GPIO descriptor knows - if this callback is implemented - whether the line is input or output.

This means that if the hardware has registers to configure open drain or open source configuration, we use that rather than (as we did before) try to emulate it by switching the line to an input to get high impedance. This is also documented throughly in Documentation/gpio/driver.txt for those of you who did not understand one word of what I just wrote. - Start to do away with the unnecessarily complex and unitelligible ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB and ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB, another evolutional artifact from the time when the GPIO subsystem was unmaintained. Archs can now just select GPIOLIB and be done with it, cleanups to arches will trickle in for the next kernel. Some minor archs ACKed the changes immediately so these are included in this pull request. - Advancing the use of the data pointer inside the GPIO device for storing driver data by switching the PowerPC, Super-H Unicore and a few other subarches or subsystem drivers in ALSA SoC, Input, serial, SSB, staging etc to use it. - The initialization now reads the input/output state of the GPIO lines, so that each GPIO descriptor knows - if this callback is implemented - whether the line is input or output.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs
Pull parallel filesystem directory handling update from Al Viro. This is the main parallel directory work by Al that makes the vfs layer able to do lookup and readdir in parallel within a single directory. That's a big change, since this used to be all protected by the directory inode mutex. The inode mutex is replaced by an rwsem, and serialization of lookups of a single name is done by a "in-progress" dentry marker. The series begins with xattr cleanups, and then ends with switching filesystems over to actually doing the readdir in parallel (switching to the "iterate_shared()" that only takes the read lock). A more detailed explanation of the process from Al Viro: "The xattr work starts with some acl fixes, then switches ->getxattr to passing inode and dentry separately. This is the point where the things start to get tricky - that got merged into the very beginning of the -rc3-based #work.lookups, to allow untangling the security_d_instantiate() mess. The xattr work itself proceeds to switch a lot of filesystems to generic_...xattr(); no complications there. After that initial xattr work, the series then does the following: - untangle security_d_instantiate() - convert a bunch of open-coded lookup_one_len_unlocked() to calls of that thing; one such place (in overlayfs) actually yields a trivial conflict with overlayfs fixes later in the cycle - overlayfs ended up switching to a variant of lookup_one_len_unlocked() sans the permission checks. I would've dropped that commit (it gets overridden on merge from #ovl-fixes in #for-next; proper resolution is to use the variant in mainline fs/overlayfs/super.c), but I didn't want to rebase the damn thing - it was fairly late in the cycle... - some filesystems had managed to depend on lookup/lookup exclusion for *fs-internal* data structures in a way that would break if we relaxed the VFS exclusion. Fixing hadn't been hard, fortunately. - core of that series - parallel lookup machinery, replacing ->i_mutex with rwsem, making lookup_slow() take it only shared. At that point lookups happen in parallel; lookups on the same name wait for the in-progress one to be done with that dentry. Surprisingly little code, at that - almost all of it is in fs/dcache.c, with fs/namei.c changes limited to lookup_slow() - making it use the new primitive and actually switching to locking shared. - parallel readdir stuff - first of all, we provide the exclusion on per-struct file basis, same as we do for read() vs lseek() for regular files. That takes care of most of the needed exclusion in readdir/readdir; however, these guys are trickier than lookups, so I went for switching them one-by-one. To do that, a new method '->iterate_shared()' is added and filesystems are switched to it as they are either confirmed to be OK with shared lock on directory or fixed to be OK with that. I hope to kill the original method come next cycle (almost all in-tree filesystems are switched already), but it's still not quite finished. - several filesystems get switched to parallel readdir. The interesting part here is dealing with dcache preseeding by readdir; that needs minor adjustment to be safe with directory locked only shared. Most of the filesystems doing that got switched to in those commits. Important exception: NFS. Turns out that NFS folks, with their, er, insistence on VFS getting the fuck out of the way of the Smart Filesystem Code That Knows How And What To Lock(tm) have grown the locking of their own. They had their own homegrown rwsem, with lookup/readdir/atomic_open being *writers* (sillyunlink is the reader there). Of course, with VFS getting the fuck out of the way, as requested, the actual smarts of the smart filesystem code etc. had become exposed... - do_last/lookup_open/atomic_open cleanups. As the result, open() without O_CREAT locks the directory only shared. Including the ->atomic_open() case. Backmerge from #for-linus in the middle of that - atomic_open() fix got brought in. - then comes NFS switch to saner (VFS-based ;-) locking, killing the homegrown "lookup and readdir are writers" kinda-sorta rwsem. All exclusion for sillyunlink/lookup is done by the parallel lookups mechanism. Exclusion between sillyunlink and rmdir is a real rwsem now - rmdir being the writer. Result: NFS lookups/readdirs/O_CREAT-less opens happen in parallel now. - the rest of the series consists of switching a lot of filesystems to parallel readdir; in a lot of cases ->llseek() gets simplified as well. One backmerge in there (again, #for-linus - rockridge fix)" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (74 commits) ext4: switch to ->iterate_shared() hfs: switch to ->iterate_shared() hfsplus: switch to ->iterate_shared() hostfs: switch to ->iterate_shared() hpfs: switch to ->iterate_shared() hpfs: handle allocation failures in hpfs_add_pos() gfs2: switch to ->iterate_shared() f2fs: switch to ->iterate_shared() afs: switch to ->iterate_shared() befs: switch to ->iterate_shared() befs: constify stuff a bit isofs: switch to ->iterate_shared() get_acorn_filename(): deobfuscate a bit btrfs: switch to ->iterate_shared() logfs: no need to lock directory in lseek switch ecryptfs to ->iterate_shared 9p: switch to ->iterate_shared() fat: switch to ->iterate_shared() romfs, squashfs: switch to ->iterate_shared() more trivial ->iterate_shared conversions ... |

qed: add support for dcbx.
This patch adds the necessary driver support for Management Firmware to configure the device/firmware with the dcbx results. Management Firmware is responsible for communicating the DCBX and driving the negotiation, but the driver has responsibility of receiving async notification and configuring the results in hw/fw. This patch also adds the dcbx support for future protocols (e.g., FCoE) as preparation to their imminent submission.

To me, quite obviously, the biggest ticket item is the new "schedutil" governor. Interestingly enough, it's the first new cpufreq governor since the beginning of the git era (except for some out-of-the-tree ones). There are two main differences between it and the existing governors. First, it uses the information provided by the scheduler directly for making its decisions, so it doesn't have to track anything by itself. Second, it can invoke drivers (supporting that feature) to adjust CPU performance right away without having to spawn work items to be executed in process context or similar. Currently, the acpi-cpufreq driver is the only one supporting that mode of operation, but then it is used on a large number of systems. The "schedutil" governor as included here is very simple and mostly regarded as a foundation for future work on the integration of the scheduler with CPU power management (in fact, there is work in progress on top of it already). Nevertheless it works and the preliminary results obtained with it are encouraging. There also is some consolidation of CPU frequency management for ARM platforms that can add their machine IDs the the new stub dt-platdev driver now and that will take care of creating the requisite platform device for cpufreq-dt, so it is not necessary to do that in platform code any more. Several ARM platforms are switched over to using this generic mechanism. In addition to that, the intel_pstate driver is now going to respect CPU frequency limits set by the platform firmware (or a BMC) and provided via the ACPI _PPC object. The devfreq subsystem is getting a new "passive" governor for SoCs subsystems that will depend on somebody else to manage their voltage rails and its support for Samsung Exynos SoCs is consolidated. The rest is support for new hardware (Intel Broxton support in intel_idle for one example), bug fixes, optimizations and cleanups in a number of places.
