Pull vdso timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "A series of commits to deal with the regression caused by the generic VDSO implementation. The usage of clock_gettime64() for 32bit compat fallback syscalls caused seccomp filters to kill innocent processes because they only allow clock_gettime(). Handle the compat syscalls with clock_gettime() as before, which is not a functional problem for the VDSO as the legacy compat application interface is not y2038 safe anyway. It's just extra fallback code which needs to be implemented on every architecture. It's opt in for now so that it does not break the compile of already converted architectures in linux-next. Once these are fixed, the #ifdeffery goes away. So much for trying to be smart and reuse code..." * 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: arm64: compat: vdso: Use legacy syscalls as fallback x86/vdso/32: Use 32bit syscall fallback lib/vdso/32: Provide legacy syscall fallbacks lib/vdso: Move fallback invocation to the callers lib/vdso/32: Remove inconsistent NULL pointer checks

On my laptop most memcg kselftests were being skipped because it claimed cgroup v2 hierarchy wasn't mounted, but this isn't correct.

Save the offsets of the start of each argument to avoid having to update pointers to each argument after every corename krealloc and to avoid having to duplicate the memory for the dump command. Executable names containing spaces were previously being expanded from %e or %E and then split in the middle of the filename. This is incorrect behaviour since an argument list can represent arguments with spaces. The splitting could lead to extra arguments being passed to the core dump handler that it might have interpreted as options or ignored completely. Core dump handlers that are not aware of this Linux kernel issue will be using %e or %E without considering that it may be split and so they will be vulnerable to processes with spaces in their names breaking their argument list. If their internals are otherwise well written, such as if they are written in shell but quote arguments, they will work better after this change than before. If they are not well written, then there is a slight chance of breakage depending on the details of the code but they will already be fairly broken by the split filenames. Core dump handlers that are aware of this Linux kernel issue will be placing %e or %E as the last item in their core_pattern and then aggregating all of the remaining arguments into one, separated by spaces. Alternatively they will be obtaining the filename via other methods. Both of these will be compatible with the new arrangement. A side effect from this change is that unknown template types (for example %z) result in an empty argument to the dump handler instead of the argument being dropped. This is a desired change as: It is easier for dump handlers to process empty arguments than dropped ones, especially if they are written in shell or don't pass each template item with a preceding command-line option in order to differentiate between individual template types. Most core_patterns in the wild do not use options so they can confuse different template types (especially numeric ones) if an earlier one gets dropped in old kernels. If the kernel introduces a new template type and a core_pattern uses it, the core dump handler might not expect that the argument can be dropped in old kernels. For example, this can result in security issues when %d is dropped in old kernels. This happened with the corekeeper package in Debian and resulted in the interface between corekeeper and Linux having to be rewritten to use command-line options to differentiate between template types. The core_pattern for most core dump handlers is written by the handler author who would generally not insert unknown template types so this change should be compatible with all the core dump handlers that exist.

ARM64 randdconfig builds regularly run into a build error, especially when NUMA_BALANCING and SPARSEMEM are enabled but not SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP: #error "KASAN: not enough bits in page flags for tag" The last-cpuid bits are already contitional on the available space, so the result of the calculation is a bit random on whether they were already left out or not. Adding the kasan tag bits before last-cpuid makes it much more likely to end up with a successful build here, and should be reliable for randconfig at least, as long as that does not randomize NR_CPUS or NODES_SHIFT but uses the defaults. In order for the modified check to not trigger in the x86 vdso32 code where all constants are wrong (building with -m32), enclose all the definitions with an #ifdef.

The problem is that when a task that is compacting receives a fatal signal, it retries indefinitely instead of exiting while making no progress as a fatal signal is pending. It's not easy to trigger this condition although enabling zswap helps on the basis that the timing is altered. A very small window has to be hit for the problem to occur (signal delivered while compacting and isolating a PFN for migration that is not aligned to SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX). This was reproduced locally -- 16G single socket system, 8G swap, 30% zswap configured, vm-bytes 22000000000 using Colin Kings stress-ng implementation from github running in a loop until the problem hits). Tracing recorded the problem occurring almost 200K times in a short window. With this patch, the problem hit 4 times but the task existed normally instead of consuming CPU. This problem has existed for some time but it was made worse by commit cf66f070 ("mm, compaction: do not consider a need to reschedule as contention"). Before that commit, if the same condition was hit then locks would be quickly contended and compaction would exit that way.

buffer_migrate_page_norefs() can race with bh users in the following way: CPU1 CPU2 buffer_migrate_page_norefs() buffer_migrate_lock_buffers() checks bh refs spin_unlock(&mapping->private_lock) __find_get_block() spin_lock(&mapping->private_lock) grab bh ref spin_unlock(&mapping->private_lock) move page do bh work This can result in various issues like lost updates to buffers (i.e. metadata corruption) or use after free issues for the old page. This patch closes the race by holding mapping->private_lock while the mapping is being moved to a new page. Ordinarily, a reference can be taken outside of the private_lock using the per-cpu BH LRU but the references are checked and the LRU invalidated if necessary. The private_lock is held once the references are known so the buffer lookup slow path will spin on the private_lock. Between the page lock and private_lock, it should be impossible for other references to be acquired and updates to happen during the migration. A user had reported data corruption issues on a distribution kernel with a similar page migration implementation as mainline. The data corruption could not be reproduced with this patch applied. A small number of migration-intensive tests were run and no performance problems were noted.

It is because commit aeed1d32 ("mm/vmscan.c: generalize shrink_slab() calls in shrink_node()") removed the !memcg check before !mem_cgroup_is_root(). And, surprisingly root memcg is allocated even though memory cgroup is disabled by kernel boot parameter. Add mem_cgroup_disabled() check to make reclaimer work as expected.

But, it doesn't make any sense to have __GFP_NOFAIL and ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM specified at the same time. According to the discussion on the mailing list, the commit should be reverted for short term solution. Catalin Marinas would follow up with a better solution for longer term. The failure rate of kmemleak metadata allocation may increase in some circumstances, but this should be expected side effect.

Pull arm swiotlb support from Christoph Hellwig: "This fixes a cascade of regressions that originally started with the addition of the ia64 port, but only got fatal once we removed most uses of block layer bounce buffering in Linux 4.18. The reason is that while the original i386/PAE code that was the first architecture that supported > 4GB of memory without an iommu decided to leave bounce buffering to the subsystems, which in those days just mean block and networking as no one else consumed arbitrary userspace memory. Later with ia64, x86_64 and other ports we assumed that either an iommu or something that fakes it up ("software IOTLB" in beautiful Intel speak) is present and that subsystems can rely on that for dealing with addressing limitations in devices. Except that the ARM LPAE scheme that added larger physical address to 32-bit ARM did not follow that scheme and thus only worked by chance and only for block and networking I/O directly to highmem. Long story, short fix - add swiotlb support to arm when build for LPAE platforms, which actuallys turns out to be pretty trivial with the modern dma-direct / swiotlb code to fix the Linux 4.18-ish regression" * tag 'arm-swiotlb-5.3' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/dma-mapping: arm: use swiotlb for bounce buffering on LPAE configs dma-mapping: check pfn validity in dma_common_{mmap,get_sgtable}
