      drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1685.c: fix conditional in ds1685_rtc_sysfs_time_regs_{show,store} · b00eeaed
      Joshua Kinard authored 
      Fix a conditional statement checking for NULL in both
ds1685_rtc_sysfs_time_regs_show and ds1685_rtc_sysfs_time_regs_store
that was using a logical AND when it should be using a logical OR so
that we fail out of the function properly if the condition ever
evaluates to true.

      nilfs2: fix potential memory overrun on inode · 957ed60b
      Ryusuke Konishi authored 
      

Each inode of nilfs2 stores a root node of a b-tree, and it turned out to
have a memory overrun issue:

Each b-tree node of nilfs2 stores a set of key-value pairs and the number
of them (in "bn_nchildren" member of nilfs_btree_node struct), as well as
a few other "bn_*" members.

Since the value of "bn_nchildren" is used for operations on the key-values
within the b-tree node, it can cause memory access overrun if a large
number is incorrectly set to "bn_nchildren".

For instance, nilfs_btree_node_lookup() function determines the range of
binary search with it, and too large "bn_nchildren" leads
nilfs_btree_node_get_key() in that function to overrun.

As for intermediate b-tree nodes, this is prevented by a sanity check
performed when each node is read from a drive, however, no sanity check
has been done for root nodes stored in inodes.

This patch fixes the issue by adding missing sanity check against b-tree
root nodes so that it's called when on-memory inodes are read from ifile,
inode metadata file.

This got lost during the initial merge process: Python requires an
__init__.py script, even if empty, in order to accept a directory as

u8 cannot contain a value larger than 0xff, hence drop the checks.
Wrapping the checks in unlikely() indicated some sense of humor, though ;-)

      rtc: ds1685: fix ds1685_rtc_alarm_irq_enable build error · 682354d4
      Arnd Bergmann authored 
      The newly added ds1685 driver causes a build error when enabled without
CONFIG_RTC_INTF_DEV:

  drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1685.c:919:22: error: 'ds1685_rtc_alarm_irq_enable' undeclared here (not in a function)
    .alarm_irq_enable = ds1685_rtc_alarm_irq_enable,

Apparently the driver was incorrectly changed to reflect the interface
change from 16380c15 ("RTC: Convert rtc drivers to use the
alarm_irq_enable method"), which removed the respective #ifdef from all
other rtc drivers.

This does the same change that was merged for the other drivers before and
removes the #ifdef, allowing the interrupts to be enabled through the
in-kernel rtc interface independent of the existence of /dev/rtc.

      memcg: fix low limit calculation · 4e54dede
      Michal Hocko authored 
      A memcg is considered low limited even when the current usage is equal to
the low limit.  This leads to interesting side effects e.g.
groups/hierarchies with no memory accounted are considered protected and
so the reclaim will emit MEMCG_LOW event when encountering them.

Another and much bigger issue was reported by Joonsoo Kim.  He has hit a
NULL ptr dereference with the legacy cgroup API which even doesn't have
low limit exposed.  The limit is 0 by default but the initial check fails
for memcg with 0 consumption and parent_mem_cgroup() would return NULL if
use_hierarchy is 0 and so page_counter_read would try to dereference NULL.

I suppose that the current implementation is just an overlook because the
documentation in Documentation/cgroups/unified-hierarchy.txt says:

  "The memory.low boundary on the other hand is a top-down allocated
  reserve.  A cgroup enjoys reclaim protection when it and all its
  ancestors are below their low boundaries"

Fix the usage and the low limit comparision in mem_cgroup_low accordingly.

  Unable to allocate RAM for process text/data, errno 12 SEGV

This problem happens because we allocate ordered page through
__get_free_pages() in do_mmap_private() in some cases and we try to free
individual pages rather than ordered page in free_page_series().  In
this case, freeing pages whose refcount is not 0 won't be freed to the
page allocator so memory leak happens.

To fix the problem, this patch changes __get_free_pages() to
alloc_pages_exact() since alloc_pages_exact() returns
physically-contiguous pages but each pages are refcounted.

Fixes: dbc8358c

      ocfs2: update web page + git tree in documentation · 01945fa2
      Mark Fasheh authored 
      We (the Ocfs2 project) recently moved the location of our ocfs2-tools
git tree and project web page.  The pertinent discussion can be seen
here:

  https://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-devel/2015-February/010579.html



The following patch updates the Ocfs2 documentation in MAINTAINERS,
ocfs2.txt, and dlmfs.txt.  I added our new official web page, changed
the location of our tools git tree and removed the link to Joel's
ancient kernel git tree - Andrew has handled our patches for a while
now.
