PCI: Make pci_msi_setup_pci_dev() non-static for use by arch code

2015-08-26T11:40:49+00:00

Commit 1851617cd2da ("PCI/MSI: Disable MSI at enumeration even if kernel doesn't support MSI") changed the location of the code that initialises dev->msi_cap/msix_cap and then disables MSI/MSI-X interrupts at PCI probe time in devices that have this flag set. It moved the code from pci_msi_init_pci_dev() to a new function named pci_msi_setup_pci_dev(), called by pci_setup_device(). The pseries PCI probing code does not call pci_setup_device(), so since the aforementioned commit the function pci_msi_setup_pci_dev() is not called and MSI/MSI-X interrupts are left enabled. Additionally because dev->msi_cap/msix_cap are not initialised no driver can ever enable MSI/MSI-X. To fix this, the pseries PCI probe should manually call pci_msi_setup_pci_dev(), so this patch makes it non-static.

mm: make page pfmemalloc check more robust

2015-08-21T21:30:10+00:00

Commit c48a11c7ad26 ("netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb") added checks for page->pfmemalloc to __skb_fill_page_desc(): if (page->pfmemalloc && !page->mapping) skb->pfmemalloc = true; It assumes page->mapping == NULL implies that page->pfmemalloc can be trusted. However, __delete_from_page_cache() can set set page->mapping to NULL and leave page->index value alone. Due to being in union, a non-zero page->index will be interpreted as true page->pfmemalloc. So the assumption is invalid if the networking code can see such a page. And it seems it can. We have encountered this with a NFS over loopback setup when such a page is attached to a new skbuf. There is no copying going on in this case so the page confuses __skb_fill_page_desc which interprets the index as pfmemalloc flag and the network stack drops packets that have been allocated using the reserves unless they are to be queued on sockets handling the swapping which is the case here and that leads to hangs when the nfs client waits for a response from the server which has been dropped and thus never arrive. The struct page is already heavily packed so rather than finding another hole to put it in, let's do a trick instead. We can reuse the index again but define it to an impossible value (-1UL). This is the page index so it should never see the value that large. Replace all direct users of page->pfmemalloc by page_is_pfmemalloc which will hide this nastiness from unspoiled eyes. The information will get lost if somebody wants to use page->index obviously but that was the case before and the original code expected that the information should be persisted somewhere else if that is really needed (e.g. what SLAB and SLUB do).

genirq: Introduce irq_chip_set_type_parent() helper

2015-08-19T22:25:25+00:00

This helper is required for irq chips which do not implement a irq_set_type callback and need to call down the irq domain hierarchy for the actual trigger type change. This helper is required to fix further wreckage caused by the conversion of TI OMAP to hierarchical irq domains and therefor tagged for stable.

mm: check __PG_HWPOISON separately from PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_*

2015-08-07T01:39:42+00:00

The race condition addressed in commit add05cecef80 ("mm: soft-offline: don't free target page in successful page migration") was not closed completely, because that can happen not only for soft-offline, but also for hard-offline. Consider that a slab page is about to be freed into buddy pool, and then an uncorrected memory error hits the page just after entering __free_one_page(), then VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page->flags & PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP) is triggered, despite the fact that it's not necessary because the data on the affected page is not consumed. To solve it, this patch drops __PG_HWPOISON from page flag checks at allocation/free time. I think it's justified because __PG_HWPOISON flags is defined to prevent the page from being reused, and setting it outside the page's alloc-free cycle is a designed behavior (not a bug.) For recent months, I was annoyed about BUG_ON when soft-offlined page remains on lru cache list for a while, which is avoided by calling put_page() instead of putback_lru_page() in page migration's success path. This means that this patch reverts a major change from commit add05cecef80 about the new refcounting rule of soft-offlined pages, so "reuse window" revives. This will be closed by a subsequent patch.

fs, file table: reinit files_stat.max_files after deferred memory initialisation

2015-08-07T01:39:40+00:00

Dave Hansen reported the following; My laptop has been behaving strangely with 4.2-rc2. Once I log in to my X session, I start getting all kinds of strange errors from applications and see this in my dmesg: VFS: file-max limit 8192 reached The problem is that the file-max is calculated before memory is fully initialised and miscalculates how much memory the kernel is using. This patch recalculates file-max after deferred memory initialisation. Note that using memory hotplug infrastructure would not have avoided this problem as the value is not recalculated after memory hot-add. 4.1: files_stat.max_files = 6582781 4.2-rc2: files_stat.max_files = 8192 4.2-rc2 patched: files_stat.max_files = 6562467 Small differences with the patch applied and 4.1 but not enough to matter.
