This reverts commit dec4f799 . Jörg Otte reports a NULL pointder dereference due to this commit, as 'crtc_state' very much can be NULL: crtc_state = state->base.state ? intel_atomic_get_crtc_state(state->base.state, intel_crtc) : NULL; So the change to test 'crtc_state->base.active' cannot possibly be correct as-is. There may be some other minimal fix (like just checking crtc_state for NULL), but I'm just reverting it now for the rc2 release, and people like Daniel Vetter who actually know this code will figure out what the right solution is in the longer term.

Normally opening a file, unlinking it and then closing will have the inode freed upon close() (provided that it's not otherwise busy and has no remaining links, of course). However, there's one case where that does *not* happen. Namely, if you open it by fhandle with cold dcache, then unlink() and close(). In normal case you get d_delete() in unlink(2) notice that dentry is busy and unhash it; on the final dput() it will be forcibly evicted from dcache, triggering iput() and inode removal. In this case, though, we end up with *two* dentries - disconnected (created by open-by-fhandle) and regular one (used by unlink()). The latter will have its reference to inode dropped just fine, but the former will not - it's considered hashed (it is on the ->s_anon list), so it will stay around until the memory pressure will finally do it in. As the result, we have the final iput() delayed indefinitely. It's trivial to reproduce - void flush_dcache(void) { system("mount -o remount,rw /"); } static char buf[20 * 1024 * 1024]; main() { int fd; union { struct file_handle f; char buf[MAX_HANDLE_SZ]; } x; int m; x.f.handle_bytes = sizeof(x); chdir("/root"); mkdir("foo", 0700); fd = open("foo/bar", O_CREAT | O_RDWR, 0600); close(fd); name_to_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, "foo/bar", &x.f, &m, 0); flush_dcache(); fd = open_by_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, &x.f, O_RDWR); unlink("foo/bar"); write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf)); system("df ."); /* 20Mb eaten */ close(fd); system("df ."); /* should've freed those 20Mb */ flush_dcache(); system("df ."); /* should be the same as #2 */ } will spit out something like Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/root 322023 303843 1131 100% / Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/root 322023 303843 1131 100% / Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/root 322023 283282 21692 93% / - inode gets freed only when dentry is finally evicted (here we trigger than by remount; normally it would've happened in response to memory pressure hell knows when).

commit 66fc1303 ("mm: shmem_zero_setup skip security check and lockdep conflict with XFS") caused a regression for SELinux by disabling any SELinux checking of mprotect PROT_EXEC on shared anonymous mappings. However, even before that regression, the checking on such mprotect PROT_EXEC calls was inconsistent with the checking on a mmap PROT_EXEC call for a shared anonymous mapping. On a mmap, the security hook is passed a NULL file and knows it is dealing with an anonymous mapping and therefore applies an execmem check and no file checks. On a mprotect, the security hook is passed a vma with a non-NULL vm_file (as this was set from the internally-created shmem file during mmap) and therefore applies the file-based execute check and no execmem check. Since the aforementioned commit now marks the shmem zero inode with the S_PRIVATE flag, the file checks are disabled and we have no checking at all on mprotect PROT_EXEC. Add a test to the mprotect hook logic for such private inodes, and apply an execmem check in that case. This makes the mmap and mprotect checking consistent for shared anonymous mappings, as well as for /dev/zero and ashmem. Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 4.1.x Signed-off-by:

The increased use of pdtlb/pitlb instructions seemed to increase the frequency of random segmentation faults building packages. Further, we had a number of cases where TLB inserts would repeatedly fail and all forward progress would stop. The Haskell ghc package caused a lot of trouble in this area. The final indication of a race in pte handling was this syslog entry on sibaris (C8000): swap_free: Unused swap offset entry 00000004 BUG: Bad page map in process mysqld pte:00000100 pmd:019bbec5 addr:00000000ec464000 vm_flags:00100073 anon_vma:0000000221023828 mapping: (null) index:ec464 CPU: 1 PID: 9176 Comm: mysqld Not tainted 4.0.0-2-parisc64-smp #1 Debian 4.0.5-1 Backtrace: [<0000000040173eb0>] show_stack+0x20/0x38 [<0000000040444424>] dump_stack+0x9c/0x110 [<00000000402a0d38>] print_bad_pte+0x1a8/0x278 [<00000000402a28b8>] unmap_single_vma+0x3d8/0x770 [<00000000402a4090>] zap_page_range+0xf0/0x198 [<00000000402ba2a4>] SyS_madvise+0x404/0x8c0 Note that the pte value is 0 except for the accessed bit 0x100. This bit shouldn't be set without the present bit. It should be noted that the madvise system call is probably a trigger for many of the random segmentation faults. In looking at the kernel code, I found the following problems: 1) The pte_clear define didn't take TLB lock when clearing a pte. 2) We didn't test pte present bit inside lock in exception support. 3) The pte and tlb locks needed to merged in order to ensure consistency between page table and TLB. This also has the effect of serializing TLB broadcasts on SMP systems. The attached change implements the above and a few other tweaks to try to improve performance. Based on the timing code, TLB purges are very slow (e.g., ~ 209 cycles per page on rp3440). Thus, I think it beneficial to test the split_tlb variable to avoid duplicate purges. Probably, all PA 2.0 machines have combined TLBs. I dropped using __flush_tlb_range in flush_tlb_mm as I realized all applications and most threads have a stack size that is too large to make this useful. I added some comments to this effect. Since implementing 1 through 3, I haven't had any random segmentation faults on mx3210 (rp3440) in about one week of building code and running as a Debian buildd. Signed-off-by:

Writes to these flush addresses trigger a memory controller to flush its internal buffers to persistent media, similar to the x86 "pcommit" instruction. Signed-off-by:

The implementation for the new "DIMM Flags" DSM relies on the -ENOTTY return code to indicate that the flags are unimplimented and to fall back to a safe default. As is the -ENXIO error code erroneoously indicates to fail enabling a BLK region. Signed-off-by:

We currently set x27 in compat_sys_sigreturn_wrapper and compat_sys_rt_sigreturn_wrapper, similarly to what we do with r8/why on 32-bit ARM, in an attempt to prevent sigreturns from being restarted. However, on arm64 we have always used pt_regs::syscallno for syscall restarting (for both native and compat tasks), and x27 is never inspected again before being overwritten in kernel_exit. This patch removes the pointless register assignments. Signed-off-by:

We were using the native syscall and that results in subtle breakage. This is the same issue as fixed in 077d0e65 (MIPS: N32: Use compat getsockopt syscall) but that commit did fix it only for N32. Signed-off-by:

The L2 cache in the I6400 core has 16 ways, so extend the way_string array to take such caches into account. [ralf@linux-mips.org: Other already supported CPUs are free to support more than 8 ways of cache as well.] Signed-off-by:

Implement the mips_cdmm_phys_base() platform callback to provide a default Common Device Memory Map (CDMM) physical base address for the Pistachio SoC. This allows the CDMM in each VPE to be configured and probed for devices, such as the Fast Debug Channel (FDC). The physical address chosen is just below the default CPC address, which appears to also be unallocated. The FDC IRQ is also usable on Pistachio, and is routed through the GIC, so implement the get_c0_fdc_int() platform callback using gic_get_c0_fdc_int(), so the FDC driver doesn't have to fall back to polling.

Wider testing reveals that the Fast Debug Channel (FDC) interrupt is routed through the GIC just fine on Pistachio SoC, even though it contains interAptiv cores. Clearly the FDC interrupt routing problems previously observed on interAptiv and proAptiv cores are specific to the Malta FPGA bitstreams. Move the workaround for interAptiv and proAptiv out of gic_get_c0_fdc_int() in the GIC irqchip driver into Malta's get_c0_fdc_int() platform callback, to allow the Pistachio SoC to use the FDC interrupt.

MT_SMP is not the only SMP option for MT cores. The MT_SMP option allows more than one VPE per core to appear as a secondary CPU in the system. Because of how CM works, it propagates the address-based cache ops to the secondary cores but not the index-based ones. Because of that, the code does not use IPIs to flush the L1 caches on secondary cores because the CM would have done that already. However, the CM functionality is independent of the type of SMP kernel so even in non-MT kernels, IPIs are not necessary. As a result of which, we change the conditional to depend on the CM presence. Moreover, since VPEs on the same core share the same L1 caches, there is no need to send an IPI on all of them so we calculate a suitable cpumask with only one VPE per core. Signed-off-by:
