mm, thp: fix collapsing of hugepages on madvise

2014-12-14T16:23:52Z

commit 6d50e60cd2edb5a57154db5a6f64eef5aa59b751 upstream. If an anonymous mapping is not allowed to fault thp memory and then madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) is used after fault, khugepaged will never collapse this memory into thp memory. This occurs because the madvise(2) handler for thp, hugepage_madvise(), clears VM_NOHUGEPAGE on the stack and it isn't stored in vma->vm_flags until the final action of madvise_behavior(). This causes the khugepaged_enter_vma_merge() to be a no-op in hugepage_madvise() when the vma had previously had VM_NOHUGEPAGE set. Fix this by passing the correct vma flags to the khugepaged mm slot handler. There's no chance khugepaged can run on this vma until after madvise_behavior() returns since we hold mm->mmap_sem. It would be possible to clear VM_NOHUGEPAGE directly from vma->vm_flags in hugepage_advise(), but I didn't want to introduce special case behavior into madvise_behavior(). I think it's best to just let it always set vma->vm_flags itself. Signed-off-by: David Rientjes Reported-by: Suleiman Souhlal Cc: "Kirill A.

random: add and use memzero_explicit() for clearing data

2014-12-14T16:23:49Z

commit d4c5efdb97773f59a2b711754ca0953f24516739 upstream. zatimend has reported that in his environment (3.16/gcc4.8.3/corei7) memset() calls which clear out sensitive data in extract_{buf,entropy, entropy_user}() in random driver are being optimized away by gcc. Add a helper memzero_explicit() (similarly as explicit_bzero() variants) that can be used in such cases where a variable with sensitive data is being cleared out in the end. Other use cases might also be in crypto code. [ I have put this into lib/string.c though, as it's always built-in and doesn't need any dependencies then. ] Fixes kernel bugzilla: 82041 Reported-by: zatimend@hotmail.co.uk Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa Cc: Alexey Dobriyan Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o [bwh: Backported to 3.2: - extract_buf() needs to use this for the 'extract' array as well - Adjust context] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

kernel: add support for gcc 5

2014-12-14T16:23:48Z

commit 71458cfc782eafe4b27656e078d379a34e472adf upstream. We're missing include/linux/compiler-gcc5.h which is required now because gcc branched off to v5 in trunk. Just copy the relevant bits out of include/linux/compiler-gcc4.h, no new code is added as of now. This fixes a build error when using gcc 5.

block: fix alignment_offset math that assumes io_min is a power-of-2

2014-12-14T16:23:47Z

commit b8839b8c55f3fdd60dc36abcda7e0266aff7985c upstream. The math in both blk_stack_limits() and queue_limit_alignment_offset() assume that a block device's io_min (aka minimum_io_size) is always a power-of-2. Fix the math such that it works for non-power-of-2 io_min. This issue (of alignment_offset != 0) became apparent when testing dm-thinp with a thinp blocksize that matches a RAID6 stripesize of 1280K. Commit fdfb4c8c1 ("dm thin: set minimum_io_size to pool's data block size") unlocked the potential for alignment_offset != 0 due to the dm-thin-pool's io_min possibly being a non-power-of-2.

vfs: fix data corruption when blocksize < pagesize for mmaped data

2014-12-14T16:23:46Z

commit 90a8020278c1598fafd071736a0846b38510309c upstream. ->page_mkwrite() is used by filesystems to allocate blocks under a page which is becoming writeably mmapped in some process' address space. This allows a filesystem to return a page fault if there is not enough space available, user exceeds quota or similar problem happens, rather than silently discarding data later when writepage is called. However VFS fails to call ->page_mkwrite() in all the cases where filesystems need it when blocksize < pagesize. For example when blocksize = 1024, pagesize = 4096 the following is problematic: ftruncate(fd, 0); pwrite(fd, buf, 1024, 0); map = mmap(NULL, 1024, PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); map[0] = 'a'; ----> page_mkwrite() for index 0 is called ftruncate(fd, 10000); /* or even pwrite(fd, buf, 1, 10000) */ mremap(map, 1024, 10000, 0); map[4095] = 'a'; ----> no page_mkwrite() called At the moment ->page_mkwrite() is called, filesystem can allocate only one block for the page because i_size == 1024. Otherwise it would create blocks beyond i_size which is generally undesirable. But later at ->writepage() time, we also need to store data at offset 4095 but we don't have block allocated for it. This patch introduces a helper function filesystems can use to have ->page_mkwrite() called at all the necessary moments.

USB: Add device quirk for ASUS T100 Base Station keyboard

2014-12-14T16:23:43Z

commit ddbe1fca0bcb87ca8c199ea873a456ca8a948567 upstream. This full-speed USB device generates spurious remote wakeup event as soon as USB_DEVICE_REMOTE_WAKEUP feature is set. As the result, Linux can't enter system suspend and S0ix power saving modes once this keyboard is used. This patch tries to introduce USB_QUIRK_IGNORE_REMOTE_WAKEUP quirk. With this quirk set, wakeup capability will be ignored during device configure. This patch could be back-ported to kernels as old as 2.6.39.

alarmtimer: Return relative times in timer_gettime

2014-11-05T20:27:43Z

commit e86fea764991e00a03ff1e56409ec9cacdbda4c9 upstream. Returns the time remaining for an alarm timer, rather than the time at which it is scheduled to expire. If the timer has already expired or it is not currently scheduled, the it_value's members are set to zero. This new behavior matches that of the other posix-timers and the POSIX specifications. This is a change in user-visible behavior, and may break existing applications. Hopefully, few users rely on the old incorrect behavior.

jiffies: Fix timeval conversion to jiffies

2014-11-05T20:27:43Z

commit d78c9300c51d6ceed9f6d078d4e9366f259de28c upstream. timeval_to_jiffies tried to round a timeval up to an integral number of jiffies, but the logic for doing so was incorrect: intervals corresponding to exactly N jiffies would become N+1. This manifested itself particularly repeatedly stopping/starting an itimer: setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &val, NULL); setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, NULL, &val); would add a full tick to val, _even if it was exactly representable in terms of jiffies_ (say, the result of a previous rounding.) Doing this repeatedly would cause unbounded growth in val. So fix the math. Here's what was wrong with the conversion: we essentially computed (eliding seconds) jiffies = usec * (NSEC_PER_USEC/TICK_NSEC) by using scaling arithmetic, which took the best approximation of NSEC_PER_USEC/TICK_NSEC with denominator of 2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC = x/(2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC), and computed: jiffies = (usec * x) >> USEC_JIFFIE_SC and rounded this calculation up in the intermediate form (since we can't necessarily exactly represent TICK_NSEC in usec.) But the scaling arithmetic is a (very slight) *over*approximation of the true value; that is, instead of dividing by (1 usec/ 1 jiffie), we effectively divided by (1 usec/1 jiffie)-epsilon (rounding down). This would normally be fine, but we want to round timeouts up, and we did so by adding 2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC - 1 before the shift; this would be fine if our division was exact, but dividing this by the slightly smaller factor was equivalent to adding just _over_ 1 to the final result (instead of just _under_ 1, as desired.) In particular, with HZ=1000, we consistently computed that 10000 usec was 11 jiffies; the same was true for any exact multiple of TICK_NSEC. We could possibly still round in the intermediate form, adding something less than 2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC - 1, but easier still is to convert usec->nsec, round in nanoseconds, and then convert using time*spec*_to_jiffies. This adds one constant multiplication, and is not observably slower in microbenchmarks on recent x86 hardware. Tested: the following program: int main() { struct itimerval zero = {{0, 0}, {0, 0}}; /* Initially set to 10 ms. */ struct itimerval initial = zero; initial.it_interval.tv_usec = 10000; setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &initial, NULL); /* Save and restore several times. */ for (size_t i = 0; i < 10; ++i) { struct itimerval prev; setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &zero, &prev); /* on old kernels, this goes up by TICK_USEC every iteration */ printf("previous value: %ld %ld %ld %ld\n", prev.it_interval.tv_sec, prev.it_interval.tv_usec, prev.it_value.tv_sec, prev.it_value.tv_usec); setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &prev, NULL); } return 0; } Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Paul Turner Cc: Richard Cochran Cc: Prarit Bhargava Reviewed-by: Paul Turner Reported-by: Aaron Jacobs Signed-off-by: Andrew Hunter [jstultz: Tweaked to apply to 3.17-rc] Signed-off-by: John Stultz [bwh: Backported to 3.2: adjust filename] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings
