      nilfs2: fix issue with race condition of competition between segments for dirty blocks · 7f42ec39
      Vyacheslav Dubeyko authored
      
      
      Many NILFS2 users were reported about strange file system corruption
      (for example):
      
         NILFS: bad btree node (blocknr=185027): level = 0, flags = 0x0, nchildren = 768
         NILFS error (device sda4): nilfs_bmap_last_key: broken bmap (inode number=11540)
      
      But such error messages are consequence of file system's issue that takes
      place more earlier.  Fortunately, Jerome Poulin <jeromepoulin@gmail.com>
      and Anton Eliasson <devel@antoneliasson.se> were reported about another
      issue not so recently.  These reports describe the issue with segctor
      thread's crash:
      
        BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000004c83
        IP: nilfs_end_page_io+0x12/0xd0 [nilfs2]
      
        Call Trace:
         nilfs_segctor_do_construct+0xf25/0x1b20 [nilfs2]
         nilfs_segctor_construct+0x17b/0x290 [nilfs2]
         nilfs_segctor_thread+0x122/0x3b0 [nilfs2]
         kthread+0xc0/0xd0
         ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0
      
      These two issues have one reason.  This reason can raise third issue
      too.  Third issue results in hanging of segctor thread with eating of
      100% CPU.
      
      REPRODUCING PATH:
      
      One of the possible way or the issue reproducing was described by
      Jermoe me Poulin <jeromepoulin@gmail.com>:
      
      1. init S to get to single user mode.
      2. sysrq+E to make sure only my shell is running
      3. start network-manager to get my wifi connection up
      4. login as root and launch "screen"
      5. cd /boot/log/nilfs which is a ext3 mount point and can log when NILFS dies.
      6. lscp | xz -9e > lscp.txt.xz
      7. mount my snapshot using mount -o cp=3360839,ro /dev/vgUbuntu/root /mnt/nilfs
      8. start a screen to dump /proc/kmsg to text file since rsyslog is killed
      9. start a screen and launch strace -f -o find-cat.log -t find
      /mnt/nilfs -type f -exec cat {} > /dev/null \;
      10. start a screen and launch strace -f -o apt-get.log -t apt-get update
      11. launch the last command again as it did not crash the first time
      12. apt-get crashes
      13. ps aux > ps-aux-crashed.log
      13. sysrq+W
      14. sysrq+E  wait for everything to terminate
      15. sysrq+SUSB
      
      Simplified way of the issue reproducing is starting kernel compilation
      task and "apt-get update" in parallel.
      
      REPRODUCIBILITY:
      
      The issue is reproduced not stable [60% - 80%].  It is very important to
      have proper environment for the issue reproducing.  The critical
      conditions for successful reproducing:
      
      (1) It should have big modified file by mmap() way.
      
      (2) This file should have the count of dirty blocks are greater that
          several segments in size (for example, two or three) from time to time
          during processing.
      
      (3) It should be intensive background activity of files modification
          in another thread.
      
      INVESTIGATION:
      
      First of all, it is possible to see that the reason of crash is not valid
      page address:
      
        NILFS [nilfs_segctor_complete_write]:2100 bh->b_count 0, bh->b_blocknr 13895680, bh->b_size 13897727, bh->b_page 0000000000001a82
        NILFS [nilfs_segctor_complete_write]:2101 segbuf->sb_segnum 6783
      
      Moreover, value of b_page (0x1a82) is 6786.  This value looks like segment
      number.  And b_blocknr with b_size values look like block numbers.  So,
      buffer_head's pointer points on not proper address value.
      
      Detailed investigation of the issue is discovered such picture:

        BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000001a82

      Usually, for every segment we collect dirty files in list.  Then, dirty
      blocks are gathered for every dirty file, prepared for write and
      submitted by means of nilfs_segbuf_submit_bh() call.  Finally, it takes
      place complete write phase after calling nilfs_end_bio_write() on the
      block layer.  Buffers/pages are marked as not dirty on final phase and
      processed files removed from the list of dirty files.
      
      It is possible to see that we had three prepare_write and submit_bio
      phases before segbuf_wait and complete_write phase.  Moreover, segments
      compete between each other for dirty blocks because on every iteration
      of segments processing dirty buffer_heads are added in several lists of
      payload_buffers:
      
        [SEGMENT 6784]: bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880218bcdf50
        [SEGMENT 6785]: bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880222cc7ee8
      
      The next pointer is the same but prev pointer has changed.  It means
      that buffer_head has next pointer from one list but prev pointer from
      another.  Such modification can be made several times.  And, finally, it
      can be resulted in various issues: (1) segctor hanging, (2) segctor
      crashing, (3) file system metadata corruption.
      
      FIX:
      This patch adds:
      
      (1) setting of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_segctor_prepare_write()
          for every proccessed dirty block;
      
      (2) checking of BH_Async_Write flag in
          nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() and
          nilfs_lookup_dirty_node_buffers();
      
      (3) clearing of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_segctor_complete_write(),
          nilfs_abort_logs(), nilfs_forget_buffer(), nilfs_clear_dirty_page().

      mm/bounce.c: fix a regression where MS_SNAP_STABLE (stable pages snapshotting) was ignored · 83b2944f
      Darrick J. Wong authored
      The "force" parameter in __blk_queue_bounce was being ignored, which
      means that stable page snapshots are not always happening (on ext3).
      This of course leads to DIF disks reporting checksum errors, so fix this
      regression.
      
      The regression was introduced in commit 6bc454d1

      kernel/kmod.c: check for NULL in call_usermodehelper_exec() · 4c1c7be9
      Tetsuo Handa authored
      If /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern contains only "|", a NULL pointer
      dereference happens upon core dump because argv_split("") returns
      argv[0] == NULL.
      
      This bug was once fixed by commit 264b83c0 ("usermodehelper: check
      subprocess_info->path != NULL") but was by error reintroduced by commit
      7f57cfa4
      
       ("usermodehelper: kill the sub_info->path[0] check").
      
      This bug seems to exist since 2.6.19 (the version which core dump to
      pipe was added).  Depending on kernel version and config, some side
      effect might happen immediately after this oops (e.g.  kernel panic with
      2.6.32-358.18.1.el6).

      ipc/sem.c: synchronize the proc interface · d8c63376
      Manfred Spraul authored
      
      
      The proc interface is not aware of sem_lock(), it instead calls
      ipc_lock_object() directly.  This means that simple semop() operations
      can run in parallel with the proc interface.  Right now, this is
      uncritical, because the implementation doesn't do anything that requires
      a proper synchronization.
      
      But it is dangerous and therefore should be fixed.

      ipc/sem.c: optimize sem_lock() · 6d07b68c
      Manfred Spraul authored
      
      
      Operations that need access to the whole array must guarantee that there
      are no simple operations ongoing.  Right now this is achieved by
      spin_unlock_wait(sem->lock) on all semaphores.
      
      If complex_count is nonzero, then this spin_unlock_wait() is not
      necessary, because it was already performed in the past by the thread
      that increased complex_count and even though sem_perm.lock was dropped
      inbetween, no simple operation could have started, because simple
      operations cannot start when complex_count is non-zero.

      ipc/sem.c: fix race in sem_lock() · 5e9d5275
      Manfred Spraul authored
      
      
      The exclusion of complex operations in sem_lock() is insufficient: after
      acquiring the per-semaphore lock, a simple op must first check that
      sem_perm.lock is not locked and only after that test check
      complex_count.  The current code does it the other way around - and that
      creates a race.  Details are below.
      
      The patch is a complete rewrite of sem_lock(), based in part on the code
      from Mike Galbraith.  It removes all gotos and all loops and thus the
      risk of livelocks.
      
      I have tested the patch (together with the next one) on my i3 laptop and
      it didn't cause any problems.
      
      The bug is probably also present in 3.10 and 3.11, but for these kernels
      it might be simpler just to move the test of sma->complex_count after
      the spin_is_locked() test.
      
      Details of the bug:
      
      Assume:
       - sma->complex_count = 0.
       - Thread 1: semtimedop(complex op that must sleep)
       - Thread 2: semtimedop(simple op).
      
      Pseudo-Trace:
      
      Thread 1: sem_lock(): acquire sem_perm.lock
      Thread 1: sem_lock(): check for ongoing simple ops
      			Nothing ongoing, thread 2 is still before sem_lock().
      Thread 1: try_atomic_semop()
      	<<< preempted.
      
      Thread 2: sem_lock():
              static inline int sem_lock(struct sem_array *sma, struct sembuf *sops,
                                            int nsops)
              {
                      int locknum;
               again:
                      if (nsops == 1 && !sma->complex_count) {
                              struct sem *sem = sma->sem_base + sops->sem_num;

      mm/compaction.c: periodically schedule when freeing pages · f6ea3adb
      David Rientjes authored
      
      
      We've been getting warnings about an excessive amount of time spent
      allocating pages for migration during memory compaction without
      scheduling.  isolate_freepages_block() already periodically checks for
      contended locks or the need to schedule, but isolate_freepages() never
      does.
      
      When a zone is massively long and no suitable targets can be found, this
      iteration can be quite expensive without ever doing cond_resched().
      
      Check periodically for the need to reschedule while the compaction free
      scanner iterates.

      fs/binfmt_elf.c: prevent a coredump with a large vm_map_count from Oopsing · 72023656
      Dan Aloni authored
      A high setting of max_map_count, and a process core-dumping with a large
      enough vm_map_count could result in an NT_FILE note not being written,
      and the kernel crashing immediately later because it has assumed
      otherwise.
      
      Reproduction of the oops-causing bug described here:
      
          https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/8/30/50
      
      Rge ussue originated in commit 2aa362c4
      
       ("coredump: extend core dump
      note section to contain file names of mapped file") from Oct 4, 2012.
      
      This patch make that section optional in that case.  fill_files_note()
      should signify the error, and also let the info struct in
      elf_core_dump() be zero-initialized so that we can check for the
      optionally written note.

      Joonyoung Shim authored
      This reverts commit cea27eb2 ("mm/memory-hotplug: fix lowmem count
      overflow when offline pages").
      
      The fixed bug by commit cea27eb2 was fixed to another way by commit
      3dcc0571 ("mm: correctly update zone->managed_pages").  That commit
      enhances memory_hotplug.c to adjust totalhigh_pages when hot-removing
      memory, for details please refer to:
      
        http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=136957578620221&w=2
      
      As a result, commit cea27eb2
      
       currently causes duplicated decreasing
      of totalhigh_pages, thus the revert.

      When the 'avr32_comparator' clockevent device is registered,
      the clockevent core sets the mode of that clockevent device
      to CLOCK_EVT_MODE_SHUTDOWN. Due to this, the 'comparator_mode'
      function calls the 'cpu_idle_poll_ctrl' to disables idle poll.
      This results in the aforementioned warning because the polling
      is not enabled yet.
      
      Change the code to only disable idle poll if it is enabled by
      the same function to avoid the warning.
