      drm/i2c: tda998x: fix bad checksum of the HDMI AVI infoframe · 4a6ca1a2
      Jean-Francois Moine authored
      The commit 8c7a075d
      "drm/i2c: tda998x: use drm_hdmi_avi_infoframe_from_display_mode()"
      also uses hdmi_avi_infoframe_pack() to create the AVI infoframe.
      This function sets the checksum of the frame and this breaks
      the second calculation of the checksum done in tda998x_write_if().
      
      Fixes: 8c7a075d

      Dave Chinner has properly pointed out that this is a deadlock in the
      reclaim code because ext4 doesn't submit pages which are marked by
      PG_writeback right away.
      
      The heuristic was introduced by commit e62e384e ("memcg: prevent OOM
      with too many dirty pages") and it was applied only when may_enter_fs
      was specified.  The code has been changed by c3b94f44 ("memcg:
      further prevent OOM with too many dirty pages") which has removed the
      __GFP_FS restriction with a reasoning that we do not get into the fs
      code.  But this is not sufficient apparently because the fs doesn't
      necessarily submit pages marked PG_writeback for IO right away.
      
      ext4_bio_write_page calls io_submit_add_bh but that doesn't necessarily
      submit the bio.  Instead it tries to map more pages into the bio and
      mpage_map_one_extent might trigger memcg charge which might end up
      waiting on a page which is marked PG_writeback but hasn't been submitted
      yet so we would end up waiting for something that never finishes.
      
      Fix this issue by replacing __GFP_IO by may_enter_fs check (for case 2)
      before we go to wait on the writeback.  The page fault path, which is
      the only path that triggers memcg oom killer since 3.12, shouldn't
      require GFP_NOFS and so we shouldn't reintroduce the premature OOM
      killer issue which was originally addressed by the heuristic.
      
      As per David Chinner the xfs is doing similar thing since 2.6.15 already
      so ext4 is not the only affected filesystem.  Moreover he notes:
      
      : For example: IO completion might require unwritten extent conversion
      : which executes filesystem transactions and GFP_NOFS allocations. The
      : writeback flag on the pages can not be cleared until unwritten
      : extent conversion completes. Hence memory reclaim cannot wait on
      : page writeback to complete in GFP_NOFS context because it is not
      : safe to do so, memcg reclaim or otherwise.
