futex: Take hugepages into account when generating futex_key

2013-08-20T15:21:01Z

commit 13d60f4b6ab5b702dc8d2ee20999f98a93728aec upstream. The futex_keys of process shared futexes are generated from the page offset, the mapping host and the mapping index of the futex user space address. This should result in an unique identifier for each futex. Though this is not true when futexes are located in different subpages of an hugepage. The reason is, that the mapping index for all those futexes evaluates to the index of the base page of the hugetlbfs mapping. So a futex at offset 0 of the hugepage mapping and another one at offset PAGE_SIZE of the same hugepage mapping have identical futex_keys. This happens because the futex code blindly uses page->index. Steps to reproduce the bug: 1. Map a file from hugetlbfs. Initialize pthread_mutex1 at offset 0 and pthread_mutex2 at offset PAGE_SIZE of the hugetlbfs mapping. The mutexes must be initialized as PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED because PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE mutexes are not affected by this issue as their keys solely depend on the user space address. 2. Lock mutex1 and mutex2 3. Create thread1 and in the thread function lock mutex1, which results in thread1 blocking on the locked mutex1. 4. Create thread2 and in the thread function lock mutex2, which results in thread2 blocking on the locked mutex2. 5. Unlock mutex2. Despite the fact that mutex2 got unlocked, thread2 still blocks on mutex2 because the futex_key points to mutex1. To solve this issue we need to take the normal page index of the page which contains the futex into account, if the futex is in an hugetlbfs mapping. In other words, we calculate the normal page mapping index of the subpage in the hugetlbfs mapping. Mappings which are not based on hugetlbfs are not affected and still use page->index. Thanks to Mel Gorman who provided a patch for adding proper evaluation functions to the hugetlbfs code to avoid exposing hugetlbfs specific details to the futex code.

tracing: Fix fields of struct trace_iterator that are zeroed by mistake

2013-08-15T05:55:17Z

commit ed5467da0e369e65b247b99eb6403cb79172bcda upstream. tracing_read_pipe zeros all fields bellow "seq". The declaration contains a comment about that, but it doesn't help. The first field is "snapshot", it's true when current open file is snapshot. Looks obvious, that it should not be zeroed. The second field is "started". It was converted from cpumask_t to cpumask_var_t (v2.6.28-4983-g4462344), in other words it was converted from cpumask to pointer on cpumask. Currently the reference on "started" memory is lost after the first read from tracing_read_pipe and a proper object will never be freed. The "started" is never dereferenced for trace_pipe, because trace_pipe can't have the TRACE_FILE_ANNOTATE options.

virtio: support unlocked queue poll

2013-08-04T07:43:40Z

commit cc229884d3f77ec3b1240e467e0236c3e0647c0c upstream. This adds a way to check ring empty state after enable_cb outside any locks. Will be used by virtio_net. Note: there's room for more optimization: caller is likely to have a memory barrier already, which means we might be able to get rid of a barrier here. Deferring this optimization until we do some benchmarking. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin Signed-off-by: David S.

This produced soft lockups as in https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/16/37 rcu_dereference(X)/ACCESS_ONCE(X) seem to not work as intended if X is ptr->field : In some cases, gcc caches the value or ptr->field in a register.

So don't allow it from a non-compat syscall.

mm: migration: add migrate_entry_wait_huge()

2013-06-20T18:28:20Z

commit 30dad30922ccc733cfdbfe232090cf674dc374dc upstream. When we have a page fault for the address which is backed by a hugepage under migration, the kernel can't wait correctly and do busy looping on hugepage fault until the migration finishes. As a result, users who try to kick hugepage migration (via soft offlining, for example) occasionally experience long delay or soft lockup. This is because pte_offset_map_lock() can't get a correct migration entry or a correct page table lock for hugepage. This patch introduces migration_entry_wait_huge() to solve this.

wait: fix false timeouts when using wait_event_timeout()

2013-06-07T19:46:36Z

commit 4c663cfc523a88d97a8309b04a089c27dc57fd7e upstream. Many callers of the wait_event_timeout() and wait_event_interruptible_timeout() expect that the return value will be positive if the specified condition becomes true before the timeout elapses. However, at the moment this isn't guaranteed. If the wake-up handler is delayed enough, the time remaining until timeout will be calculated as 0 - and passed back as a return value - even if the condition became true before the timeout has passed. Fix this by returning at least 1 if the condition becomes true. This semantic is in line with what wait_for_condition_timeout() does; see commit bb10ed09 ("sched: fix wait_for_completion_timeout() spurious failure under heavy load"). Daniel said "We have 3 instances of this bug in drm/i915. One case even where we switch between the interruptible and not interruptible wait_event_timeout variants, foolishly presuming they have the same semantics. I very much like this."

macvlan: fix passthru mode race between dev removal and rx path

2013-05-19T17:04:46Z

[ Upstream commit 233c7df0821c4190e2d3f4be0f2ca0ab40a5ed8c, note that I had to add list_first_or_null_rcu to rculist.h in order to accomodate this fix. ] Currently, if macvlan in passthru mode is created and data are rxed and you remove this device, following panic happens: NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000198 IP: [] macvlan_handle_frame+0x153/0x1f7 [macvlan] I'm using following script to trigger this: I run this script while "ping -f" is running on another machine to send packets to e1 rx. Reason of the panic is that list_first_entry() is blindly called in macvlan_handle_frame() even if the list was empty. vlan is set to incorrect pointer which leads to the crash. I'm fixing this by protecting port->vlans list by rcu and by preventing from getting incorrect pointer in case the list is empty.
