Very few people noticed, because this helper function really isn't used

If an admin inserts a !RT process into a cpu cgroup by setting
rtruntime=0, usually it runs perfectly because a !RT task isn't affected
by the rtruntime knob.  But if it promotes an RT task via an explicit
setscheduler() syscall or an OOM, the task can't run at all.  In short,
the oom killer doesn't work at all if admins are using cpu cgroup and don't
touch the rtruntime knob.

Eventually, kernel may hang up when oom kill occur.  I and the original
author Luis agreed to disable this logic.

13 years agovmscan: all_unreclaimable() use zone->all_unreclaimable as a name
KOSAKI Motohiro [Thu, 14 Apr 2011 22:22:12 +0000 (15:22 -0700)]
vmscan: all_unreclaimable() use zone->all_unreclaimable as a name

all_unreclaimable check in direct reclaim has been introduced at 2.6.19
by following commit.

2006 Sep 25; commit 408d8544; oom: use unreclaimable info

And it went through strange history. firstly, following commit broke
the logic unintentionally.

2008 Apr 29; commit a41f24ea; page allocator: smarter retry of
      costly-order allocations

Two years later, I've found obvious meaningless code fragment and
restored original intention by following commit.

2010 Jun 04; commit bb21c7ce; vmscan: fix do_try_to_free_pages()
      return value when priority==0

But, the logic didn't works when 32bit highmem system goes hibernation
and Minchan slightly changed the algorithm and fixed it .

2010 Sep 22: commit d1908362: vmscan: check all_unreclaimable
      in direct reclaim path

But, recently, Andrey Vagin found the new corner case. Look,

struct zone {
  ..
        int                     all_unreclaimable;
  ..
        unsigned long           pages_scanned;
  ..
}

zone->all_unreclaimable and zone->pages_scanned are neigher atomic
variables nor protected by lock.  Therefore zones can become a state of
zone->page_scanned=0 and zone->all_unreclaimable=1.  In this case, current
all_unreclaimable() return false even though zone->all_unreclaimabe=1.

This resulted in the kernel hanging up when executing a loop of the form

1. fork
2. mmap
3. touch memory
4. read memory
5. munmmap

as described in
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1348725#1348725

Is this ignorable minor issue?  No.  Unfortunately, x86 has very small dma
zone and it become zone->all_unreclamble=1 easily.  and if it become
all_unreclaimable=1, it never restore all_unreclaimable=0.  Why?  if
all_unreclaimable=1, vmscan only try DEF_PRIORITY reclaim and
a-few-lru-pages>>DEF_PRIORITY always makes 0.  that mean no page scan at
all!

Eventually, oom-killer never works on such systems.  That said, we can't
use zone->pages_scanned for this purpose.  This patch restore
all_unreclaimable() use zone->all_unreclaimable as old.  and in addition,
to add oom_killer_disabled check to avoid reintroduce the issue of commit
d1908362 ("vmscan: check all_unreclaimable in direct reclaim path").

13 years agomm: check that we have the right vma in __access_remote_vm()
Michael Ellerman [Thu, 14 Apr 2011 22:22:10 +0000 (15:22 -0700)]
mm: check that we have the right vma in __access_remote_vm()

In __access_remote_vm() we need to check that we have found the right
vma, not the following vma before we try to access it.  Otherwise we
might call the vma's access routine with an address which does not fall
inside the vma.

It was discovered on a current kernel but with an unreleased driver,
from memory it was strace leading to a kernel bad access, but it
obviously depends on what the access implementation does.

Looking at other access implementations I only see:

  $ git grep -A 5 vm_operations|grep access
  arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/file.c- .access = spufs_mem_mmap_access,
  arch/x86/pci/i386.c- .access = generic_access_phys,
  drivers/char/mem.c- .access = generic_access_phys
  fs/sysfs/bin.c- .access = bin_access,

The spufs one looks like it might behave badly given the wrong vma, it
assumes vma->vm_file->private_data is a spu_context, and looks like it
would probably blow up pretty quickly if it wasn't.

generic_access_phys() only uses the vma to check vm_flags and get the
mm, and then walks page tables using the address.  So it should bail on
the vm_flags check, or at worst let you access some other VM_IO mapping.

And bin_access() just proxies to another access implementation.

tried to get the whole logic of brk randomization for legacy
(libc5-based) applications finally right.

It turns out that the way to detect whether brk has actually been
randomized in the end or not introduced by that patch still doesn't work
for those binaries, as reported by Geert:

:
: | brk(0x80005c8e)                         = 0x80006000
:
: After the patch:
:
: | brk(0x80005c8e)                         = 0x80005c8e
:
: Old libc5 considers brk() to have failed if the return value is not
: identical to the requested value.

I don't like it, but currently see no better option than a bit flag in

Blackfin: SMP: make all barriers handle cache issues

When suspending/resuming, the common task freezing code will run in
parallel and freeze processes on each core.  This is because the code
uses the non-smp version of memory barriers (as well it should).

The Blackfin smp barrier logic at the moment contains the cache sync
logic, but the non-smp barriers do not.  This is incorrect as Rafel
summarized:
> ...
> The existing memory barriers are SMP barriers too, but they are more

> (eg. rmb() is supposed to be stronger than smp_rmb()).
> ...
> However, looking at the blackfin's definitions of SMP barriers I see

avr32: init cannot ignore signals sent by force_sig_info()

We can delete the code that checks to see if we're sending an ignored
signal to init because force_sig_info() already handles this case.
force_sig_info() will kill init even if the signal handler is SIG_DFL
and the scenario described in the comment where init might "generate
the same exception over and over again" cannot occur (force_sig_info()
clears SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE to ensure that init will die).

Also, the use of is_global_init() is not correct in the multhreaded
case, as Oleg Nesterov explains,

"is_global_init() is not right in theory, /sbin/init can be
multithreaded. And, this doesn't cover the sub-namespace
inits... I'd suggest to check SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, but looking
closer I think you can simply remove this code."

  623b0355d5b1 "[AVR32] Clean up exception handling code"

13 years agovm: fix mlock() on stack guard page
Linus Torvalds [Tue, 12 Apr 2011 21:15:51 +0000 (14:15 -0700)]
vm: fix mlock() on stack guard page

Commit 53a7706d5ed8 ("mlock: do not hold mmap_sem for extended periods
of time") changed mlock() to care about the exact number of pages that
__get_user_pages() had brought it.  Before, it would only care about
errors.

And that doesn't work, because we also handled one page specially in
__mlock_vma_pages_range(), namely the stack guard page.  So when that
case was handled, the number of pages that the function returned was off
by one.  In particular, it could be zero, and then the caller would end
up not making any progress at all.

Rather than try to fix up that off-by-one error for the mlock case
specially, this just moves the logic to handle the stack guard page
into__get_user_pages() itself, thus making all the counts come out
right automatically.

Revert "vfs: Export file system uuid via /proc/<pid>/mountinfo"

This reverts commit 93f1c20bc8cdb757be50566eff88d65c3b26881f.

It turns out that libmount misparses it because it adds a '-' character
in the uuid string, which libmount then incorrectly confuses with the
separator string (" - ") at the end of all the optional arguments.

Upstream libmount (in the util-linux tree) has been fixed, but until
that fix actually percolates up to users, we'd better not expose this
change in the kernel.

Let's revisit this later (possibly by exposing the UUID without any '-'
characters in it, avoiding the user-space bug).

cifs: don't allow mmap'ed pages to be dirtied while under writeback (try #3)

This is more or less the same patch as before, but with some merge
conflicts fixed up.

If a process has a dirty page mapped into its page tables, then it has
the ability to change it while the client is trying to write the data
out to the server. If that happens after the signature has been
calculated then that signature will then be wrong, and the server will
likely reset the TCP connection.

This patch adds a page_mkwrite handler for CIFS that simply takes the
page lock. Because the page lock is held over the life of writepage and
writepages, this prevents the page from becoming writeable until
the write call has completed.

With this, we can also remove the "sign_zero_copy" module option and
always inline the pages when writing.
