The 9p-virtio transport does zero copy on things larger than 1024 bytes
in size. It accomplishes this by returning the physical addresses of
pages to the virtio-pci device. At present, the translation is usually a
bit shift.
That approach produces an invalid page address when we read/write to
vmalloc buffers, such as those used for Linux kernel modules. Any
attempt to load a Linux kernel module from 9p-virtio produces the
following stack.
[<ffffffff814878ce>] p9_virtio_zc_request+0x45e/0x510
[<ffffffff814814ed>] p9_client_zc_rpc.constprop.16+0xfd/0x4f0

Subsequently, QEMU will die printing:
qemu-system-x86_64: virtio: trying to map MMIO memory
This patch enables 9p-virtio to correctly handle this case. This not
only enables us to load Linux kernel modules off virtfs, but also
enables ZFS file-based vdevs on virtfs to be used without killing QEMU.
Special thanks to both Avi Kivity and Alexander Graf for their
interpretation of QEMU backtraces. Without their guidence, tracking down
this bug would have taken much longer. Also, special thanks to Linus
Torvalds for his insightful explanation of why this should use
is_vmalloc_addr() instead of is_vmalloc_or_module_addr():

We would allocate one specific exception stack for each kind of
non-base exceptions for every CPU. For ppc32 the CPU hard ID is
used as the subscript to get the specific exception stack for
one CPU. But for an UP kernel, there is only one element in the
each kind of exception stack array. We would get stuck if the
CPU hard ID is not equal to '0'. So in this case we should use the
subscript '0' no matter what the CPU hard ID is.

Currently we set our cpu's bit in cpus_in_xmon, and then we take the
output lock and print the exception information.
This can race with the master cpu entering the command loop and printing
the backtrace. The result is that the backtrace gets garbled with
another cpu's exception print out.
Fix it by delaying the set of cpus_in_xmon until we are finished
printing.

As far as I can tell, our 70s era timeout loop in get_output_lock() is
generating no code.
This leads to the hostile takeover happening more or less simultaneously
on all cpus. The result is "interesting", some example output that is
more readable than most:
cpu 0x1: Vector: 100 (Scypsut e0mx bR:e setV)e catto xc0p:u[ c 00

Fix it by using udelay() in the timeout loop. The wait time and check
frequency are arbitrary, but seem to work OK. We already rely on
udelay() working so this is not a new dependency.

If we enter with xmon_speaker != 0 we skip the first cmpxchg(), we also
skip the while loop because xmon_speaker != last_speaker (0) - meaning we
skip the second cmpxchg() also.
Following that code path the compiler sees no memory barriers and so is
within its rights to never reload xmon_speaker. The end result is we loop
forever.
This manifests as all cpus being in xmon ('c' command), but they refuse
to take control when you switch to them ('c x' for cpu # x).
I have seen this deadlock in practice and also checked the generated code to
confirm this is what's happening.
The simplest fix is just to always try the cmpxchg().

Right now the config_bhrb() PMU specific call happens after
write_mmcr0(), which actually enables the PMU for event counting and
interrupts. So there is a small window of time where the PMU and BHRB
runs without the required HW branch filter (if any) enabled in BHRB.
This can cause some of the branch samples to be collected through BHRB
without any filter applied and hence affects the correctness of
the results. This patch moves the BHRB config function call before
enabling interrupts.
Here are some data points captured via trace prints which depicts how we
could get PMU interrupts with BHRB filter NOT enabled with a standard
perf record command line (asking for branch record information as well).
$ perf record -j any_call ls
Before the patch:-
ls-1962 [003] d... 2065.299590: .perf_event_interrupt: MMCRA: 40000000000
ls-1962 [003] d... 2065.299603: .perf_event_interrupt: MMCRA: 40000000000
...
All the PMU interrupts before this point did not have the requested
HW branch filter enabled in the MMCRA.
ls-1962 [003] d... 2065.299647: .perf_event_interrupt: MMCRA: 40040000000
ls-1962 [003] d... 2065.299662: .perf_event_interrupt: MMCRA: 40040000000
After the patch:-
ls-1850 [008] d... 190.311828: .perf_event_interrupt: MMCRA: 40040000000
ls-1850 [008] d... 190.311848: .perf_event_interrupt: MMCRA: 40040000000
All the PMU interrupts have the requested HW BHRB branch filter
enabled in MMCRA.

The powerpc specific nx-842 compression driver does not currently
handle translating a vmalloc address to a physical address.
The current driver uses __pa() for all addresses which does not
properly handle vmalloc addresses and thus causes a failure since
we do not pass a proper physical address to the hypervisor.
This patch adds a routine to convert an address to a physical
address by checking for vmalloc addresses and handling them properly.

Relocation's code is not working in little endian mode because the r_info
field, which is a 64 bits value, should be read from the right offset.
The current code is optimized to read the r_info field as a 32 bits value
starting at the middle of the double word (offset 12). When running in LE
mode, the read value is not correct since only the MSB is read.
This patch removes this optimization which consist to deal with a 32 bits
value instead of a 64 bits one. This way it works in big and little endian
mode.

On p8 systems, with relocation on exception feature enabled we are seeing
kdump kernel hang at interrupt vector 0xc*4400. The reason is, with this
feature enabled, exception are raised with MMU (IR=DR=1) ON with the
default offset of 0xc*4000. Since exception is raised in virtual mode it
requires the vector region to be executable without which it fails to
fetch and execute instruction at 0xc*4xxx. For default kernel since kernel
is loaded at real 0, the htab mappings sets the entire kernel text region
executable. But for relocatable kernel (e.g. kdump case) we only copy
interrupt vectors down to real 0 and never marked that region as
executable because in p7 and below we always get exception in real mode.
This patch fixes this issue by marking htab mapping range as executable
that overlaps with the interrupt vector region for relocatable kernel.

find old dentry exist
rm file, add inode say inodeA

call ocfs2_link(),create a
hard link for inodeA.
rm the link, add inodeA to orphan_dir
again
When orphan_scan work start, it calls ocfs2_queue_orphans() to do the
main work. It first tranverses entrys in orphan_dir, linking all inodes
in this orphan_dir to a list look like this:
inodeA->inodeB->...->inodeA
When tranvering this list, it will fall into loop, calling iput() again
and again. And finally trigger BUG_ON(inode->i_state & I_CLEAR).

fs-writeback will release the dirty pages without page lock whose offset
are over inode size, the release happens at
block_write_full_page_endio(). If not update, dirty pages in file holes
may be released before flushed to the disk, then file holes will contain
some non-zero data, this will cause sparse file md5sum error.
To reproduce the bug, find a big sparse file with many holes, like vm
image file, its actual size should be bigger than available mem size to
make writeback work more frequently, tar it with -S option, then keep
untar it and check its md5sum again and again until you get a wrong

The issue scenario is as following:

In order to solve the issue above, we modified ocfs2_setattr(), if

truncate disk space to attr->ia_size.

mce-test detected a test failure when injecting error to a thp tail
page. This is because we take page refcount of the tail page in
madvise_hwpoison() while the fix in commit a3e0f9e47d
("mm/memory-failure.c: transfer page count from head page to tail page
after split thp") assumes that we always take refcount on the head page.
When a real memory error happens we take refcount on the head page where
memory_failure() is called without MF_COUNT_INCREASED set, so it seems
to me that testing memory error on thp tail page using madvise makes
little sense.
This patch cancels moving refcount in !MF_COUNT_INCREASED for valid
testing.

Changes in commit a0b8cab3b9 ("mm: remove lru parameter from
__pagevec_lru_add and remove parts of pagevec API") have introduced a
call to add_to_page_cache_lru() which causes a leak in nfs_symlink() as
now the page gets an extra refcount that is not dropped.
Jan Stancek observed and reported the leak effect while running test8
from Connectathon Testsuite. After several iterations over the test
case, which creates several symlinks on a NFS mountpoint, the test
system was quickly getting into an out-of-memory scenario.
This patch fixes the page leak by dropping that extra refcount
add_to_page_cache_lru() is grabbing.

His solution was to add a spinlock in order to quiet lockdep. Although
there would be no contention to adding the lock, that lock also requires
disabling of interrupts which will have a larger impact on the system.
Instead of adding a spinlock to a location where it is not needed for
lockdep, make a __remove_partial() function that does not test if the
list_lock is held, as no one should have it due to it being freed.
Also added a __add_partial() function that does not do the lock
validation either, as it is not needed for the creation of the cache.

Recently due to a spike in connections per second memcached on 3
separate boxes triggered the OOM killer from accept. At the time the
OOM killer was triggered there was 4GB out of 36GB free in zone 1. The
problem was that alloc_fdtable was allocating an order 3 page (32KiB) to
hold a bitmap, and there was sufficient fragmentation that the largest
page available was 8KiB.
I find the logic that PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER can't fail pretty dubious
but I do agree that order 3 allocations are very likely to succeed.
There are always pathologies where order > 0 allocations can fail when
there are copious amounts of free memory available. Using the pigeon
hole principle it is easy to show that it requires 1 page more than 50%
of the pages being free to guarantee an order 1 (8KiB) allocation will
succeed, 1 page more than 75% of the pages being free to guarantee an
order 2 (16KiB) allocation will succeed and 1 page more than 87.5% of
the pages being free to guarantee an order 3 allocate will succeed.
A server churning memory with a lot of small requests and replies like
memcached is a common case that if anything can will skew the odds
against large pages being available.
Therefore let's not give external applications a practical way to kill
linux server applications, and specify __GFP_NORETRY to the kmalloc in
alloc_fdmem. Unless I am misreading the code and by the time the code
reaches should_alloc_retry in __alloc_pages_slowpath (where
__GFP_NORETRY becomes signification). We have already tried everything
reasonable to allocate a page and the only thing left to do is wait. So
not waiting and falling back to vmalloc immediately seems like the
reasonable thing to do even if there wasn't a chance of triggering the
OOM killer.

The issue could not be reproduced under an HVM instance with the same
kernel, so it appears to be exclusive to paravirtual Xen guests. He
bisected the problem to commit 1667918b64 ("mm: numa: clear numa
hinting information on mprotect") that was also included in 3.12-stable.
The problem was related to how xen translates ptes because it was not
accounting for the _PAGE_NUMA bit. This patch splits pte_present to add
a pteval_present helper for use by xen so both bare metal and xen use
the same code when checking if a PTE is present.

Commit c65c1877bd ("slub: use lockdep_assert_held") incorrectly
required that add_full() and remove_full() hold n->list_lock. The lock
is only taken when kmem_cache_debug(s), since that's the only time it
actually does anything.
Require that the lock only be taken under such a condition.

Currently, update_note_header_size_elf64() and
update_note_header_size_elf32() will add the size of a PT_NOTE entry to
real_sz even if that causes real_sz to exceeds max_sz. This patch
corrects the while loop logic in those routines to ensure that does not
happen and prints a warning if a PT_NOTE entry is dropped. If zero
PT_NOTE entries are found or this condition is encountered because the
only entry was dropped, a warning is printed and an error is returned.
One possible negative side effect of exceeding the max_sz limit is an
allocation failure in merge_note_headers_elf64() or
merge_note_headers_elf32() which would produce console output such as
the following while booting the crash kernel.
vmalloc: allocation failure: 14076997632 bytes

This type of failure has been seen on a four socket prototype system
with certain memory configurations. Most PT_NOTE sections have a single
entry similar to:
n_namesz = 0x5
n_descsz = 0x150
n_type = 0x1
Occasionally, a second entry is encountered with very large n_namesz and
n_descsz sizes:
n_namesz = 0x80000008
n_descsz = 0x510ae163
n_type = 0x80000008
Not yet sure of the source of these extra entries, they seem bogus, but
they shouldn't cause crash dump to fail.

Commit 46d3ceabd8 ("tcp: TCP Small Queues") introduced a possible
regression for applications using TCP_NODELAY.
If TCP session is throttled because of tsq, we should consult
tp->nonagle when TX completion is done and allow us to send additional
segment, especially if this segment is not a full MSS.
Otherwise this segment is sent after an RTO.
[edumazet] : Cooked the changelog, added another fix about testing
sk_wmem_alloc twice because TX completion can happen right before
setting TSQ_THROTTLED bit.
This problem is particularly visible with recent auto corking,
but might also be triggered with low tcp_limit_output_bytes
values or NIC drivers delaying TX completion by hundred of usec,
and very low rtt.
Thomas Glanzmann for example reported an iscsi regression, caused
by tcp auto corking making this bug quite visible.

====================
bridge: Fix corner case problems around local fdb entries
There are so many corner cases that are not handled properly around local
fdb entries.
- We might fail to delete the old entry and might delete an arbitrary local
entry when changing mac address of a bridge port.
- We always fail to delete the old entry when changing mac address of the
bridge device.
- We might incorrectly delete a necessary entry when detaching a bridge port.
- We might incorrectly delete a necessary entry when deleting a vlan.
and so on.
This is a patch series to fix these issues.
v3:
- Handle NTF_USE case in patch 1/9, commented by Vlad Yasevich.
- Tested port detach/attach and didn't find any problem with patch 5/9,
suggested by Stephen Hemminger.
- Add comments about possible inconsistent state in current implementation
into commit log of patch 5/9, found by the above test.
- Reword unintensive changelog of patch 7/9, commented by Vlad Yasevich.
v2:
- Change the way to find the old entry in br_fdb_changeaddr() from memorizing
previous port address to introducing a new flag indicating whether a fdb
entry is added by user or not, commented by Stephen Hemminger.
- Add a fix for the way to insert a new address in br_fdb_changeaddr().
- Prevent creating an entry such that its dst is NULL in br_add_if() to
preserve old behavior, commented by Vlad Yasevich.
- Add more comments about slight behavior change, where the bridge device
come to be able to receive traffic to an address it has during short
window, to changelogs, commented by Vlad Yasevich.
- Add a fix for possible race in br_fdb_change_mac_address().

Vlan codes unconditionally delete local fdb entries.
We should consider the possibility that other ports have the same
address and vlan.
Example of problematic case:
ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
ip link set eth1 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
brctl addif br0 eth0
brctl addif br0 eth1 # br0 will have mac address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
bridge vlan add dev eth0 vid 10
bridge vlan add dev eth1 vid 10
bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 10 self
We will have fdb entry such that f->dst == eth0, f->vlan_id == 10 and
f->addr == 12:34:56:78:90:ab at this time.
Next, delete eth0 vlan 10.
bridge vlan del dev eth0 vid 10
In this case, we still need the entry for br0, but it will be deleted.
Note that br0 needs the entry even though its mac address is not set
manually. To delete the entry with proper condition checking,
fdb_delete_local() is suitable to use.

br_fdb_delete_by_port() doesn't care about vlan and mac address of the
bridge device.
As the check is almost the same as mac address changing, slightly modify
fdb_delete_local() and use it.
Note that we can always set added_by_user to 0 in fdb_delete_local() because
- br_fdb_delete_by_port() calls fdb_delete_local() for local entries
regardless of its added_by_user. In this case, we have to check if another
port has the same address and vlan, and if found, we have to create the
entry (by changing dst). This is kernel-added entry, not user-added.
- br_fdb_changeaddr() doesn't call fdb_delete_local() for user-added entry.

br_fdb_change_mac_address() doesn't check if the local entry has the
same address as any of bridge ports.
Although I'm not sure when it is beneficial, current implementation allow
the bridge device to receive any mac address of its ports.
To preserve this behavior, we have to check if the mac address of the
entry being deleted is identical to that of any port.
As this check is almost the same as that in br_fdb_changeaddr(), create
a common function fdb_delete_local() and call it from
br_fdb_changeadddr() and br_fdb_change_mac_address().

We should take into account the followings when deleting a local fdb
entry.
- nbp_vlan_find() can be used only when vid != 0 to check if an entry is
deletable, because a fdb entry with vid 0 can exist at any time while
nbp_vlan_find() always return false with vid 0.
Example of problematic case:
ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
ip link set eth1 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
brctl addif br0 eth0
brctl addif br0 eth1
ip link set eth0 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
Then, the fdb entry 12:34:56:78:90:ab will be deleted even though the
bridge port eth1 still has that address.
- The port to which the bridge device is attached might needs a local entry
if its mac address is set manually.
Example of problematic case:
ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
brctl addif br0 eth0
ip link set br0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
ip link set eth0 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
Then, the fdb still must have the entry 12:34:56:78:90:ab, but it will be
deleted.
We can use br->dev->addr_assign_type to check if the address is manually
set or not, but I propose another approach.
Since we delete and insert local entries whenever changing mac address
of the bridge device, we can change dst of the entry to NULL regardless of
addr_assign_type when deleting an entry associated with a certain port,
and if it is found to be unnecessary later, then delete it.
That is, if changing mac address of a port, the entry might be changed
to its dst being NULL first, but is eventually deleted when recalculating
and changing bridge id.
This approach is especially useful when we want to share the code with
deleting vlan in which the bridge device might want such an entry regardless
of addr_assign_type, and makes things easy because we don't have to consider
if mac address of the bridge device will be changed or not at the time we
delete a local entry of a port, which means fdb code will not be bothered
even if the bridge id calculating logic is changed in the future.
Also, this change reduces inconsistent state, where frames whose dst is the
mac address of the bridge, can't reach the bridge because of premature fdb
entry deletion. This change reduces the possibility that the bridge device
replies unreachable mac address to arp requests, which could occur during
the short window between calling del_nbp() and br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id()
in br_del_if(). This will effective after br_fdb_delete_by_port() starts to
use the same code by following patch.

Vlan code may need fdb change when changing mac address of bridge device
even if it is caused by the mac address changing of a bridge port.
Example configuration:
ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
ip link set eth1 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
brctl addif br0 eth0
brctl addif br0 eth1 # br0 will have mac address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 10 self
bridge vlan add dev eth0 vid 10
We will have fdb entry such that f->dst == NULL, f->vlan_id == 10 and
f->addr == 12:34:56:78:90:ab at this time.
Next, change the mac address of eth0 to greater value.
ip link set eth0 address ee:ff:12:34:56:78
Then, mac address of br0 will be recalculated and set to aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff.
However, an entry aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff will not be created and we will be not
able to communicate using br0 on vlan 10.
Address this issue by deleting and adding local entries whenever
changing the mac address of the bridge device.
If there already exists an entry that has the same address, for example,
in case that br_fdb_changeaddr() has already inserted it,
br_fdb_change_mac_address() will simply fail to insert it and no
duplicated entry will be made, as it was.
This approach also needs br_add_if() to call br_fdb_insert() before
br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id() so that we don't create an entry whose
dst == NULL in this function to preserve previous behavior.
Note that this is a slight change in behavior where the bridge device can
receive the traffic to the new address before calling
br_stp_recalculate_bridge_id() in br_add_if().
However, it is not a problem because we have already the address on the
new port and such a way to insert new one before recalculating bridge id
is taken in br_device_event() as well.

We have been always failed to delete the old entry at
br_fdb_change_mac_address() because br_set_mac_address() updates
dev->dev_addr before calling br_fdb_change_mac_address() and
br_fdb_change_mac_address() uses dev->dev_addr to find the old entry.
That update of dev_addr is completely unnecessary because the same work
is done in br_stp_change_bridge_id() which is called right away after
calling br_fdb_change_mac_address().

Since commit bc9a25d21e ("bridge: Add vlan support for local fdb entries"),
br_fdb_changeaddr() has inserted a new local fdb entry only if it can
find old one. But if we have two ports where they have the same address
or user has deleted a local entry, there will be no entry for one of the
ports.
Example of problematic case:
ip link set eth0 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
ip link set eth1 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
brctl addif br0 eth0
brctl addif br0 eth1 # eth1 will not have a local entry due to dup.
ip link set eth1 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
Then, the new entry for the address 12:34:56:78:90:ab will not be
created, and the bridge device will not be able to communicate.
Insert new entries regardless of whether we can find old entries or not.

br_fdb_changeaddr() assumes that there is at most one local entry per port
per vlan. It used to be true, but since commit 36fd2b63e3 ("bridge: allow
creating/deleting fdb entries via netlink"), it has not been so.
Therefore, the function might fail to search a correct previous address
to be deleted and delete an arbitrary local entry if user has added local
entries manually.
Example of problematic case:
ip link set eth0 address ee:ff:12:34:56:78
brctl addif br0 eth0
bridge fdb add 12:34:56:78:90:ab dev eth0 master
ip link set eth0 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
Then, the address 12:34:56:78:90:ab might be deleted instead of
ee:ff:12:34:56:78, the original mac address of eth0.
Address this issue by introducing a new flag, added_by_user, to struct
net_bridge_fdb_entry.
Note that br_fdb_delete_by_port() has to set added_by_user to 0 in cases
like:
ip link set eth0 address 12:34:56:78:90:ab
ip link set eth1 address aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
brctl addif br0 eth0
bridge fdb add aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff dev eth0 master
brctl addif br0 eth1
brctl delif br0 eth0
In this case, kernel should delete the user-added entry aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff,
but it also should have been added by "brctl addif br0 eth1" originally,
so we don't delete it and treat it a new kernel-created entry.

Please git pull the following branch:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/xen/tip.git stable/for-jens-3.14
which is based off v3.13-rc6. If you would like me to rebase it on
a different branch/tag I would be more than happy to do so.
The patches are all bug-fixes and hopefully can go in 3.14.
They deal with xen-blkback shutdown and cause memory leaks
as well as shutdown races. They should go to stable tree and if you
are OK with I will ask them to backport those fixes.
There is also a fix to xen-blkfront to deal with unexpected state
transition. And lastly a fix to the header where it was using the
__aligned__ unnecessarily.
