       - ->get_acl only gets called after we checked for a cached ACL, so no
         need to call get_cached_acl again.
       - no need to check IS_POSIXACL in ->get_acl, without that it should
         never get set as all the callers that set it already have the check.

      x86, x32: Correct invalid use of user timespec in the kernel · 2def2ef2
      PaX Team authored
      The x32 case for the recvmsg() timout handling is broken:
      
        asmlinkage long compat_sys_recvmmsg(int fd, struct compat_mmsghdr __user *mmsg,
                                            unsigned int vlen, unsigned int flags,
                                            struct compat_timespec __user *timeout)
        {
                int datagrams;
                struct timespec ktspec;
      
                if (flags & MSG_CMSG_COMPAT)
                        return -EINVAL;
      
                if (COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME)
                        return __sys_recvmmsg(fd, (struct mmsghdr __user *)mmsg, vlen,
                                              flags | MSG_CMSG_COMPAT,
                                              (struct timespec *) timeout);
                ...
      
      The timeout pointer parameter is provided by userland (hence the __user
      annotation) but for x32 syscalls it's simply cast to a kernel pointer
      and is passed to __sys_recvmmsg which will eventually directly
      dereference it for both reading and writing.  Other callers to
      __sys_recvmmsg properly copy from userland to the kernel first.
      
      The bug was introduced by commit ee4fa23c
      
       ("compat: Use
      COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME in net/compat.c") and should affect all kernels
      since 3.4 (and perhaps vendor kernels if they backported x32 support
      along with this code).
      
      Note that CONFIG_X86_X32_ABI gets enabled at build time and only if
      CONFIG_X86_X32 is enabled and ld can build x32 executables.
      
      Other uses of COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME seem fine.
      
      This addresses CVE-2014-0038.

       "The most notable new addition inside this pull request is the support

          "The interAptiv is a power-efficient multi-core microprocessor
           for use in system-on-chip (SoC) applications. The interAptiv combines
           a multi-threading pipeline with a coherence manager to deliver improved
           computational throughput and power efficiency. The interAptiv can
           contain one to four MIPS32R3 interAptiv cores, system level
           coherence manager with L2 cache, optional coherent I/O port,
           and optional floating point unit."

        and full gpio button/led descriptions for BCM47xx.

      memcg: fix mutex not unlocked on memcg_create_kmem_cache fail path · 7c094fd6
      Vladimir Davydov authored
      Commit 842e2873
      
       ("memcg: get rid of kmem_cache_dup()") introduced a
      mutex for memcg_create_kmem_cache() to protect the tmp_name buffer that
      holds the memcg name.  It failed to unlock the mutex if this buffer
      could not be allocated.
      
      This patch fixes the issue by appropriately unlocking the mutex if the
      allocation fails.

      mm, oom: base root bonus on current usage · 778c14af
      David Rientjes authored
      A 3% of system memory bonus is sometimes too excessive in comparison to
      other processes.
      
      With commit a63d83f4
      
       ("oom: badness heuristic rewrite"), the OOM
      killer tries to avoid killing privileged tasks by subtracting 3% of
      overall memory (system or cgroup) from their per-task consumption.  But
      as a result, all root tasks that consume less than 3% of overall memory
      are considered equal, and so it only takes 33+ privileged tasks pushing
      the system out of memory for the OOM killer to do something stupid and
      kill dhclient or other root-owned processes.  For example, on a 32G
      machine it can't tell the difference between the 1M agetty and the 10G
      fork bomb member.
      
      The changelog describes this 3% boost as the equivalent to the global
      overcommit limit being 3% higher for privileged tasks, but this is not
      the same as discounting 3% of overall memory from _every privileged task
      individually_ during OOM selection.
      
      Replace the 3% of system memory bonus with a 3% of current memory usage
      bonus.
      
      By giving root tasks a bonus that is proportional to their actual size,
      they remain comparable even when relatively small.  In the example
      above, the OOM killer will discount the 1M agetty's 256 badness points
      down to 179, and the 10G fork bomb's 262144 points down to 183500 points
      and make the right choice, instead of discounting both to 0 and killing
      agetty because it's first in the task list.

      mm: don't lose the SOFT_DIRTY flag on mprotect · 24f91eba
      Andrey Vagin authored
      The SOFT_DIRTY bit shows that the content of memory was changed after a
      defined point in the past.  mprotect() doesn't change the content of
      memory, so it must not change the SOFT_DIRTY bit.
      
      This bug causes a malfunction: on the first iteration all pages are
      dumped.  On other iterations only pages with the SOFT_DIRTY bit are
      dumped.  So if the SOFT_DIRTY bit is cleared from a page by mistake, the
      page is not dumped and its content will be restored incorrectly.
      
      This patch does nothing with _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY, becase pte_modify()
      is called only for present pages.
      
      Fixes commit 0f8975ec
      
       ("mm: soft-dirty bits for user memory changes
      tracking").

      mm/slub.c: fix page->_count corruption (again) · a0320865
      Dave Hansen authored
      Commit abca7c49 ("mm: fix slab->page _count corruption when using
      slub") notes that we can not _set_ a page->counters directly, except
      when using a real double-cmpxchg.  Doing so can lose updates to
      ->_count.
      
      That is an absolute rule:
      
              You may not *set* page->counters except via a cmpxchg.
      
      Commit abca7c49
      
       fixed this for the folks who have the slub
      cmpxchg_double code turned off at compile time, but it left the bad case
      alone.  It can still be reached, and the same bug triggered in two
      cases:
      
      1. Turning on slub debugging at runtime, which is available on
         the distro kernels that I looked at.
      2. On 64-bit CPUs with no CMPXCHG16B (some early AMD x86-64
         cpus, evidently)
      
      There are at least 3 ways we could fix this:
      
      1. Take all of the exising calls to cmpxchg_double_slab() and
         __cmpxchg_double_slab() and convert them to take an old, new
         and target 'struct page'.
      2. Do (1), but with the newly-introduced 'slub_data'.
      3. Do some magic inside the two cmpxchg...slab() functions to
         pull the counters out of new_counters and only set those
         fields in page->{inuse,frozen,objects}.
      
      I've done (2) as well, but it's a bunch more code.  This patch is an
      attempt at (3).  This was the most straightforward and foolproof way
      that I could think to do this.
      
      This would also technically allow us to get rid of the ugly
      
      #if defined(CONFIG_HAVE_CMPXCHG_DOUBLE) && \
             defined(CONFIG_HAVE_ALIGNED_STRUCT_PAGE)
      
      in 'struct page', but leaving it alone has the added benefit that
      'counters' stays 'unsigned' instead of 'unsigned long', so all the
      copies that the slub code does stay a bit smaller.

      mm/mempolicy.c: fix mempolicy printing in numa_maps · 8790c71a
      David Rientjes authored
      As a result of commit 5606e387
      
       ("mm: numa: Migrate on reference
      policy"), /proc/<pid>/numa_maps prints the mempolicy for any <pid> as
      "prefer:N" for the local node, N, of the process reading the file.
      
      This should only be printed when the mempolicy of <pid> is
      MPOL_PREFERRED for node N.
      
      If the process is actually only using the default mempolicy for local
      node allocation, make sure "default" is printed as expected.

      zram: remove zram->lock in read path and change it with mutex · e46e3315
      Minchan Kim authored
      
      
      Finally, we separated zram->lock dependency from 32bit stat/ table
      handling so there is no reason to use rw_semaphore between read and
      write path so this patch removes the lock from read path totally and
      changes rw_semaphore with mutex.  So, we could do
      
      old:
      
        read-read: OK
        read-write: NO
        write-write: NO
      
      Now:
      
        read-read: OK
        read-write: OK
        write-write: NO
      
      The below data proves mixed workload performs well 11 times and there is
      also enhance on write-write path because current rw-semaphore doesn't
      support SPIN_ON_OWNER.  It's side effect but anyway good thing for us.
      
      Write-related tests perform better (from 61% to 1058%) but read path has
      good/bad(from -2.22% to 1.45%) but they are all marginal within stddev.

       ("zram: don't grab mutex in zram_slot_free_noity")
      introduced free request pending code to avoid scheduling by mutex under
      spinlock and it was a mess which made code lenghty and increased
      overhead.
      
      Now, we don't need zram->lock any more to free slot so this patch
      reverts it and then, tb_lock should protect it.

      zram: introduce zram->tb_lock · 92967471
      Minchan Kim authored
      
      
      Currently, the zram table is protected by zram->lock but it's rather
      coarse-grained lock and it makes hard for scalibility.
      
      Let's use own rwlock instead of depending on zram->lock.  This patch
      adds new locking so obviously, it would make slow but this patch is just
      prepartion for removing coarse-grained rw_semaphore(ie, zram->lock)
      which is hurdle about zram scalability.
      
      Final patch in this patchset series will remove the lock from read-path
      and change rw_semaphore with mutex in write path.  With bonus, we could
      drop pending slot free mess in next patch.
