We needed the physical address of the container in order to compute the offset within the relocated ramdisk. And we did this by doing __pa() on the virtual address. However, __pa() does checks whether the physical address is within PAGE_OFFSET and __START_KERNEL_map - see __phys_addr() - which fail if we have CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY enabled: we feed a virtual address which *doesn't* have the randomization offset into a function which uses PAGE_OFFSET which *does* have that offset. This makes this check fire: VIRTUAL_BUG_ON((x > y) || !phys_addr_valid(x)); ^^^^^^ due to the randomization offset. The fix is as simple as using __pa_nodebug() because we do that randomization offset accounting later in that function ourselves. Reported-by:

gen_pool_alloc_algo() iterates over the chunks of a pool trying to find a contiguous block of memory that satisfies the allocation request. The shortcut if (size > atomic_read(&chunk->avail)) continue; makes the loop skip over chunks that do not have enough bytes left to fulfill the request. There are two situations, though, where an allocation might still fail: (1) The available memory is not contiguous, i.e. the request cannot be fulfilled due to external fragmentation. (2) A race condition. Another thread runs the same code concurrently and is quicker to grab the available memory. In those situations, the loop calls pool->algo() to search the entire chunk, and pool->algo() returns some value that is >= end_bit to indicate that the search failed. This return value is then assigned to start_bit. The variables start_bit and end_bit describe the range that should be searched, and this range should be reset for every chunk that is search...

But it's not impossible for an accounted allocation to happen from the memcg direct reclaim context, and we needed to reproduce this crash many times before we even got a useful stack trace out of it. Like other direct reclaimers, mark tasks in memcg reclaim PF_MEMALLOC to avoid recursing into any other form of direct reclaim. Then let recursive charges from PF_MEMALLOC contexts bypass the cgroup limit. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161025141050.GA13019@cmpxchg.org Signed-off-by:

Commit 68f24b08 ("sched/core: Free the stack early if CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK") may cause the task->stack to be freed during kmemleak_scan() execution, leading to either a NULL pointer fault (if task->stack is NULL) or kmemleak accessing already freed memory.

KASAN uses stackdepot to memorize stacks for all kmalloc/kfree calls. Current stackdepot capacity is 16MB (1024 top level entries x 4 pages on second level). Size of each stack is (num_frames + 3) * sizeof(long). Which gives us ~84K stacks. This capacity was chosen empirically and it is enough to run kernel normally. However, when lots of configs are enabled and a fuzzer tries to maximize code coverage, it easily hits the limit within tens of minutes. I've tested for long a time with number of top level entries bumped 4x (4096). And I think I've seen overflow only once. But I don't have all configs enabled and code coverage has not reached maximum yet. So bump it 8x to 8192. Since we have two-level table, memory cost of this is very moderate -- currently the top-level table is 8KB, with this patch it is 64KB, which is negligible under KASAN. Here is some approx math. 128MB allows us to memorize ~670K stacks (assuming stack is ~200b). I've grepped kernel for kmalloc|kfree|kmem_cache_alloc|kmem_cache_free| kzalloc|kstrdup|kstrndup|kmemdup and it gives ~60K matches. Most of alloc/free call sites are reachable with only one stack. But some utility functions can have large fanout. Assuming average fanout is 5x, total number of alloc/free stacks is ~300K.

The use of config_enabled() is ambiguous. For config options, IS_ENABLED(), IS_REACHABLE(), etc. will make intention clearer. Sometimes config_enabled() has been used for non-config options because it is useful to check whether the given symbol is defined or not. I have been tackling on deprecating config_enabled(), and now is the time to finish this work. Some new users have appeared for v4.9-rc1, but it is trivial to replace them: - arch/x86/mm/kaslr.c replace config_enabled() with IS_ENABLED() because CONFIG_X86_ESPFIX64 and CONFIG_EFI are boolean. - include/asm-generic/export.h replace config_enabled() with __is_defined(). Then, config_enabled() can be removed now. Going forward, please use IS_ENABLED(), IS_REACHABLE(), etc. for config options, and __is_defined() for non-config symbols.

When kmem accounting switched from account by default to only account if flagged by __GFP_ACCOUNT, IPC mqueue and messages was left out. The production use case at hand is that mqueues should be customizable via sysctls in Docker containers in a Kubernetes cluster. This can only be safely allowed to the users of the cluster (without the risk that they can cause resource shortage on a node, influencing other users' containers) if all resources they control are bounded, i.e. accounted for.

On large systems, when some slab caches grow to millions of objects (and many gigabytes), running 'cat /proc/slabinfo' can take up to 1-2 seconds. During this time, interrupts are disabled while walking the slab lists (slabs_full, slabs_partial, and slabs_free) for each node, and this sometimes causes timeouts in other drivers (for instance, Infiniband). This patch optimizes 'cat /proc/slabinfo' by maintaining a counter for total number of allocated slabs per node, per cache. This counter is updated when a slab is created or destroyed. This enables us to skip traversing the slabs_full list while gathering slabinfo statistics, and since slabs_full tends to be the biggest list when the cache is large, it results in a dramatic performance improvement. Getting slabinfo statistics now only requires walking the slabs_free and slabs_partial lists, and those lists are usually much smaller than slabs_full. We tested this after growing the dentry cache to 70GB, and the performance improved from 2s to 5ms.

In case list_lru_init_memcg() fails it goes into destroy_super(), which calls list_lru_destroy(). And in list_lru_init() we see that in case memcg_init_list_lru() fails, lru->node is freed, but not set NULL, which then leads list_lru_destroy() to believe it is initialized and call memcg_destroy_list_lru(). memcg_destroy_list_lru() in turn can access lru->node[i].memcg_lrus, which is NULL.

Back in commit f56141e3 ("all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_struct"), all architectures and core code were changed to use task_struct::restart_block. However, when h8300 support was subsequently restored in v4.2, it was not updated to account for this, and maintains thread_info::restart_block, which is not kept in sync. This patch drops the redundant restart_block from thread_info, and moves h8300 to the common one in task_struct, ensuring that syscall restarting always works as expected.

in_interrupt() returns a nonzero value when we are either in an interrupt or have bh disabled via local_bh_disable(). Since we are interested in only ignoring coverage from actual interrupts, do a proper check instead of just calling in_interrupt(). As a result of this change, kcov will start to collect coverage from within local_bh_disable()/local_bh_enable() sections.

There is a bug report that SLAB makes extreme load average due to over 2000 kworker thread. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172981 This issue is caused by kmemcg feature that try to create new set of kmem_caches for each memcg. Recently, kmem_cache creation is slowed by synchronize_sched() and futher kmem_cache creation is also delayed since kmem_cache creation is synchronized by a global slab_mutex lock. So, the number of kworker that try to create kmem_cache increases quietly. synchronize_sched() is for lockless access to node's shared array but it's not needed when a new kmem_cache is created. So, this patch rules out that case. Fixes: 801faf0d ("mm/slab: lockless decision to grow cache") Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1475734855-4837-1-git-send-email-iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com Reported-by:

No, KASAN may not be able to co-exist with HOTPLUG_MEMORY at runtime, but for build testing there is no reason not to allow them together. This hopefully means better build coverage and fewer embarrasing silly problems like the one fixed by commit 9db4f36e ("mm: remove unused variable in memory hotplug") in the future.

When I removed the per-zone bitlock hashed waitqueues in commit 9dcb8b68 ("mm: remove per-zone hashtable of bitlock waitqueues"), I removed all the magic hotplug memory initialization of said waitqueues too. But when I actually _tested_ the resulting build, I stupidly assumed that "allmodconfig" would enable memory hotplug. And it doesn't, because it enables KASAN instead, which then disables hotplug memory support. As a result, my build test of the per-zone waitqueues was totally broken, and I didn't notice that the compiler warns about the now unused iterator variable 'i'. I guess I should be happy that that seems to be the worst breakage from my clearly horribly failed test coverage. Reported-by:

There is also a fix for an iomap bug, too. This is a quite a bit larger than I'd prefer for a -rc3, but most of the change comes from cleaning up the new reflink copy on write code; it's much simpler and easier to understand now. These changes fixed several bugs in the new code, and it wasn't clear that there was an easier/simpler way to fix them. The rest of the fixes are the usual size you'd expect at this stage. I've left the commits to soak in linux-next for a some extra time because of the size before asking you to pull, no new problems with them have been reported so I think it's all OK. Summary: - iomap page offset masking fix for page faults - add IOMAP_REPORT to distinguish between read and fiemap map requests - cleanups to new shared data extent code - fix mount active status on failed log recovery - fix broken dquots in a buffer calculation - fix locking order issues and merge xfs_reflink_remap_range and xfs_file_share_range - rework unmapping of CoW extents and remove now unused functions - clean state when CoW is done" * tag 'xfs-fixes-for-linus-4.9-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs: (25 commits) xfs: clear cowblocks tag when cow fork is emptied xfs: fix up inode cowblocks tracking tracepoints fs: Do to trim high file position bits in iomap_page_mkwrite_actor xfs: remove xfs_bunmapi_cow xfs: optimize xfs_reflink_end_cow xfs: optimize xfs_reflink_cancel_cow_blocks xfs: refactor xfs_bunmapi_cow xfs: optimize writes to reflink files xfs: don't bother looking at the refcount tree for reads xfs: handle "raw" delayed extents xfs_reflink_trim_around_shared xfs: add xfs_trim_extent iomap: add IOMAP_REPORT xfs: merge xfs_reflink_remap_range and xfs_file_share_range xfs: remove xfs_file_wait_for_io xfs: move inode locking from xfs_reflink_remap_range to xfs_file_share_range xfs: fix the same_inode check in xfs_file_share_range xfs: remove the same fs check from xfs_file_share_range libxfs: v3 inodes are only valid on crc-enabled filesystems libxfs: clean up _calc_dquots_per_chunk xfs: unset MS_ACTIVE if mount fails ...

btrfs_remove_all_log_ctxs takes a shortcut where it avoids walking the list because it knows all of the waiters are patiently waiting for the commit to finish. But, there's a small race where btrfs_sync_log can remove itself from the list if it finds a log commit is already done. Also, it uses list_del_init() to remove itself from the list, but there's no way to know if btrfs_remove_all_log_ctxs has already run, so we don't know for sure if it is safe to call list_del_init(). This gets rid of all the shortcuts for btrfs_remove_all_log_ctxs(), and just calls it with the proper locking. This is part two of the corruption fixed by cbd60aa7. I should have done this in the first place, but convinced myself the optimizations were safe. A 12 hour run of dbench 2048 will eventually trigger a list debug WARN_ON for the list_del_init() in btrfs_sync_log(). Fixes: d1433deb Reported-by:
