include/linux/compiler-clang.h: handle randomizable anonymous structs

2017-12-05T10:26:37Z

commit 4ca59b14e588f873795a11cdc77a25c686a29d23 upstream. The GCC randomize layout plugin can randomize the member offsets of sensitive kernel data structures. To use this feature, certain annotations and members are added to the structures which affect the member offsets even if this plugin is not used. All of these structures are completely randomized, except for task_struct which leaves out some of its members. All the other members are wrapped within an anonymous struct with the __randomize_layout attribute. This is done using the randomized_struct_fields_start and randomized_struct_fields_end defines. When the plugin is disabled, the behaviour of this attribute can vary based on the GCC version. For GCC 5.1+, this attribute maps to __designated_init otherwise it is just an empty define but the anonymous structure is still present. For other compilers, both randomized_struct_fields_start and randomized_struct_fields_end default to empty defines meaning the anonymous structure is not introduced at all. So, if a module compiled with Clang, such as a BPF program, needs to access task_struct fields such as pid and comm, the offsets of these members as recognized by Clang are different from those recognized by modules compiled with GCC. If GCC 4.6+ is used to build the kernel, this can be solved by introducing appropriate defines for Clang so that the anonymous structure is seen when determining the offsets for the members.

autofs: revert "autofs: fix AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT not being honored"

2017-12-05T10:26:29Z

commit 5d38f049cee1e1c4a7ac55aa79d37d01ddcc3860 upstream. Commit 42f461482178 ("autofs: fix AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT not being honored") allowed the fstatat(2) system call to properly honor the AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT flag but introduced a semantic change. In order to honor AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT a semantic change was made to the negative dentry case for stat family system calls in follow_automount(). This changed the unconditional triggering of an automount in this case to no longer be done and an error returned instead. This has caused more problems than I expected so reverting the change is needed. In a discussion with Neil Brown it was concluded that the automount(8) daemon can implement this change without kernel modifications. So that will be done instead and the autofs module documentation updated with a description of the problem and what needs to be done by module users for this specific case.

mm: migrate: fix an incorrect call of prep_transhuge_page()

2017-12-05T10:26:29Z

commit 40a899ed16486455f964e46d1af31fd4fded21c1 upstream. In https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/20/411, Andrea reported that during memory hotplug/hot remove prep_transhuge_page() is called incorrectly on non-THP pages for migration, when THP is on but THP migration is not enabled. This leads to a bad state of target pages for migration. By inspecting the code, if called on a non-THP, prep_transhuge_page() will 1) change the value of the mapping of (page + 2), since it is used for THP deferred list; 2) change the lru value of (page + 1), since it is used for THP's dtor. Both can lead to data corruption of these two pages. Andrea said: "Pragmatically and from the point of view of the memory_hotplug subsys, the effect is a kernel crash when pages are being migrated during a memory hot remove offline and migration target pages are found in a bad state" This patch fixes it by only calling prep_transhuge_page() when we are certain that the target page is THP.

mm: introduce get_user_pages_longterm

2017-12-05T10:26:28Z

commit 2bb6d2837083de722bfdc369cb0d76ce188dd9b4 upstream. Patch series "introduce get_user_pages_longterm()", v2. Here is a new get_user_pages api for cases where a driver intends to keep an elevated page count indefinitely. This is distinct from usages like iov_iter_get_pages where the elevated page counts are transient. The iov_iter_get_pages cases immediately turn around and submit the pages to a device driver which will put_page when the i/o operation completes (under kernel control). In the longterm case userspace is responsible for dropping the page reference at some undefined point in the future. This is untenable for filesystem-dax case where the filesystem is in control of the lifetime of the block / page and needs reasonable limits on how long it can wait for pages in a mapping to become idle. Fixing filesystems to actually wait for dax pages to be idle before blocks from a truncate/hole-punch operation are repurposed is saved for a later patch series. Also, allowing longterm registration of dax mappings is a future patch series that introduces a "map with lease" semantic where the kernel can revoke a lease and force userspace to drop its page references. I have also tagged these for -stable to purposely break cases that might assume that longterm memory registrations for filesystem-dax mappings were supported by the kernel. The behavior regression this policy change implies is one of the reasons we maintain the "dax enabled. Warning: EXPERIMENTAL, use at your own risk" notification when mounting a filesystem in dax mode. It is worth noting the device-dax interface does not suffer the same constraints since it does not support file space management operations like hole-punch. This patch (of 4): Until there is a solution to the dma-to-dax vs truncate problem it is not safe to allow long standing memory registrations against filesytem-dax vmas. Device-dax vmas do not have this problem and are explicitly allowed. This is temporary until a "memory registration with layout-lease" mechanism can be implemented for the affected sub-systems (RDMA and V4L2).

mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->split() to vm_operations_struct

2017-12-05T10:26:28Z

commit 31383c6865a578834dd953d9dbc88e6b19fe3997 upstream. Patch series "device-dax: fix unaligned munmap handling" When device-dax is operating in huge-page mode we want it to behave like hugetlbfs and fail attempts to split vmas into unaligned ranges. It would be messy to teach the munmap path about device-dax alignment constraints in the same (hstate) way that hugetlbfs communicates this constraint. Instead, these patches introduce a new ->split() vm operation. This patch (of 2): The device-dax interface has similar constraints as hugetlbfs in that it requires the munmap path to unmap in huge page aligned units. Rather than add more custom vma handling code in __split_vma() introduce a new vm operation to perform this vma specific check.

mm: fix device-dax pud write-faults triggered by get_user_pages()

2017-12-05T10:26:28Z

commit 1501899a898dfb5477c55534bdfd734c046da06d upstream. Currently only get_user_pages_fast() can safely handle the writable gup case due to its use of pud_access_permitted() to check whether the pud entry is writable. In the gup slow path pud_write() is used instead of pud_access_permitted() and to date it has been unimplemented, just calls BUG_ON(). kernel BUG at ./include/linux/hugetlb.h:244! [..] RIP: 0010:follow_devmap_pud+0x482/0x490 [..] Call Trace: follow_page_mask+0x28c/0x6e0 __get_user_pages+0xe4/0x6c0 get_user_pages_unlocked+0x130/0x1b0 get_user_pages_fast+0x89/0xb0 iov_iter_get_pages_alloc+0x114/0x4a0 nfs_direct_read_schedule_iovec+0xd2/0x350 ? nfs_start_io_direct+0x63/0x70 nfs_file_direct_read+0x1e0/0x250 nfs_file_read+0x90/0xc0 For now this just implements a simple check for the _PAGE_RW bit similar to pmd_write. However, this implies that the gup-slow-path check is missing the extra checks that the gup-fast-path performs with pud_access_permitted. Later patches will align all checks to use the 'access_permitted' helper if the architecture provides it. Note that the generic 'access_permitted' helper fallback is the simple _PAGE_RW check on architectures that do not define the 'access_permitted' helper(s).

genirq: Track whether the trigger type has been set

2017-11-30T08:40:52Z

commit 4f8413a3a799c958f7a10a6310a451e6b8aef5ad upstream. When requesting a shared interrupt, we assume that the firmware support code (DT or ACPI) has called irqd_set_trigger_type already, so that we can retrieve it and check that the requester is being reasonnable. Unfortunately, we still have non-DT, non-ACPI systems around, and these guys won't call irqd_set_trigger_type before requesting the interrupt. The consequence is that we fail the request that would have worked before. We can either chase all these use cases (boring), or address it in core code (easier). Let's have a per-irq_desc flag that indicates whether irqd_set_trigger_type has been called, and let's just check it when checking for a shared interrupt. If it hasn't been set, just take whatever the interrupt requester asks.

mm/page_alloc.c: broken deferred calculation

2017-11-24T07:37:05Z

commit d135e5750205a21a212a19dbb05aeb339e2cbea7 upstream. In reset_deferred_meminit() we determine number of pages that must not be deferred. We initialize pages for at least 2G of memory, but also pages for reserved memory in this node. The reserved memory is determined in this function: memblock_reserved_memory_within(), which operates over physical addresses, and returns size in bytes. However, reset_deferred_meminit() assumes that that this function operates with pfns, and returns page count. The result is that in the best case machine boots slower than expected due to initializing more pages than needed in single thread, and in the worst case panics because fewer than needed pages are initialized early.
