* Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt: a little tidyingHugh Dickins2015-11-051-8/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's an odd line about "Locked" at the head of the description of /proc/meminfo: it seems to have strayed from /proc/PID/smaps, so lead it back there. Move "Swap" and "SwapPss" descriptions down above it, to match the order in the file (though "PageSize"s still undescribed). The example of "Locked: 374 kB" (the same as Pss, neither Rss nor Size) is so unlikely as to be misleading: just make it 0, this is /bin/bash text; which would be "dw" (disabled write) not "de" (do not expand).

* mm: hugetlb: proc: add HugetlbPages field to /proc/PID/statusNaoya Horiguchi2015-11-051-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently there's no easy way to get per-process usage of hugetlb pages, which is inconvenient because userspace applications which use hugetlb typically want to control their processes on the basis of how much memory (including hugetlb) they use. So this patch simply provides easy access to the info via /proc/PID/status.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Its a bit odd that debugfs_create_bool() takes 'u32 *' as an argument, when all it needs is a boolean pointer. It would be better to update this API to make it accept 'bool *' instead, as that will make it more consistent and often more convenient. Over that bool takes just a byte. That required updates to all user sites as well, in the same commit updating the API. regmap core was also using debugfs_{read|write}_file_bool(), directly and variable types were updated for that to be bool as well.

| * | ipconfig: send Client-identifier in DHCP requestsLi RongQing2015-10-181-0/+3
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A dhcp server may provide parameters to a client from a pool of IP addresses and using a shared rootfs, or provide a specific set of parameters for a specific client, usually using the MAC address to identify each client individually. The dhcp protocol also specifies a client-id field which can be used to determine the correct parameters to supply when no MAC address is available. There is currently no way to tell the kernel to supply a specific client-id, only the userspace dhcp clients support this feature, but this can not be used when the network is needed before userspace is available such as when the root filesystem is on NFS. This patch is to be able to do something like "ip=dhcp,client_id_type, client_id_value", as a kernel parameter to enable the kernel to identify itself to the server.

* / fs/proc, core/debug: Don't expose absolute kernel addresses via wchanIngo Molnar2015-10-011-2/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So the /proc/PID/stat 'wchan' field (the 30th field, which contains the absolute kernel address of the kernel function a task is blocked in) leaks absolute kernel addresses to unprivileged user-space: seq_put_decimal_ull(m, ' ', wchan); The absolute address might also leak via /proc/PID/wchan as well, if KALLSYMS is turned off or if the symbol lookup fails for some reason: static int proc_pid_wchan(struct seq_file *m, struct pid_namespace *ns, struct pid *pid, struct task_struct *task) { unsigned long wchan; char symname[KSYM_NAME_LEN]; wchan = get_wchan(task); if (lookup_symbol_name(wchan, symname) < 0) { if (!ptrace_may_access(task, PTRACE_MODE_READ)) return 0; seq_printf(m, "%lu", wchan); } else { seq_printf(m, "%s", symname); } return 0; } This isn't ideal, because for example it trivially leaks the KASLR offset to any local attacker: fomalhaut:~> printf "%016lx\n" $(cat /proc/$$/stat | cut -d' ' -f35) ffffffff8123b380 Most real-life uses of wchan are symbolic: ps -eo pid:10,tid:10,wchan:30,comm and procps uses /proc/PID/wchan, not the absolute address in /proc/PID/stat: triton:~/tip> strace -f ps -eo pid:10,tid:10,wchan:30,comm 2>&1 | grep wchan | tail -1 open("/proc/30833/wchan", O_RDONLY) = 6 There's one compatibility quirk here: procps relies on whether the absolute value is non-zero - and we can provide that functionality by outputing "0" or "1" depending on whether the task is blocked (whether there's a wchan address). These days there appears to be very little legitimate reason user-space would be interested in the absolute address. The absolute address is mostly historic: from the days when we didn't have kallsyms and user-space procps had to do the decoding itself via the System.map. So this patch sets all numeric output to "0" or "1" and keeps only symbolic output, in /proc/PID/wchan. ( The absolute sleep address can generally still be profiled via perf, by tasks with sufficient privileges. ) Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Acked-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com> Cc: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com> Cc: Andrey Ryabinin <ryabinin.a.a@gmail.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> Cc: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com> Cc: Kostya Serebryany <kcc@google.com> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@oracle.com> Cc: kasan-dev <kasan-dev@googlegroups.com> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150930135917.GA3285@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

The changes outside of the typical drivers/nvdimm/ and drivers/acpi/nfit.[ch] paths are related to the removal of IORESOURCE_CACHEABLE, the introduction of memremap(), and the introduction of ZONE_DEVICE + devm_memremap_pages(). Summary: - Introduce ZONE_DEVICE and devm_memremap_pages() as a generic mechanism for adding device-driver-discovered memory regions to the kernel's direct map. This facility is used by the pmem driver to enable pfn_to_page() operations on the page frames returned by DAX ('direct_access' in 'struct block_device_operations'). For now, the 'memmap' allocation for these "device" pages comes from "System RAM". Support for allocating the memmap from device memory will arrive in a later kernel. - Introduce memremap() to replace usages of ioremap_cache() and ioremap_wt(). memremap() drops the __iomem annotation for these mappings to memory that do not have i/o side effects. The replacement of ioremap_cache() with memremap() is limited to the pmem driver to ease merging the api change in v4.3. Completion of the conversion is targeted for v4.4. - Similar to the usage of memcpy_to_pmem() + wmb_pmem() in the pmem driver, update the VFS DAX implementation and PMEM api to provide persistence guarantees for kernel operations on a DAX mapping. - Convert the ACPI NFIT 'BLK' driver to map the block apertures as cacheable to improve performance. - Miscellaneous updates and fixes to libnvdimm including support for issuing "address range scrub" commands, clarifying the optimal 'sector size' of pmem devices, a clarification of the usage of the ACPI '_STA' (status) property for DIMM devices, and other minor fixes" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (34 commits) libnvdimm, pmem: direct map legacy pmem by default libnvdimm, pmem: 'struct page' for pmem libnvdimm, pfn: 'struct page' provider infrastructure x86, pmem: clarify that ARCH_HAS_PMEM_API implies PMEM mapped WB add devm_memremap_pages mm: ZONE_DEVICE for "device memory" mm: move __phys_to_pfn and __pfn_to_phys to asm/generic/memory_model.h dax: drop size parameter to ->direct_access() nd_blk: change aperture mapping from WC to WB nvdimm: change to use generic kvfree() pmem, dax: have direct_access use __pmem annotation dax: update I/O path to do proper PMEM flushing pmem: add copy_from_iter_pmem() and clear_pmem() pmem, x86: clean up conditional pmem includes pmem: remove layer when calling arch_has_wmb_pmem() pmem, x86: move x86 PMEM API to new pmem.h header libnvdimm, e820: make CONFIG_X86_PMEM_LEGACY a tristate option pmem: switch to devm_ allocations devres: add devm_memremap libnvdimm, btt: write and validate parent_uuid ...

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The functionality of ext3 is fully supported by ext4 driver. Major distributions (SUSE, RedHat) already use ext4 driver to handle ext3 filesystems for quite some time. There is some ugliness in mm resulting from jbd cleaning buffers in a dirty page without cleaning page dirty bit and also support for buffer bouncing in the block layer when stable pages are required is there only because of jbd. So let's remove the ext3 driver. This saves us some 28k lines of duplicated code. Acked-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu> Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

Holding the spinlock in __fd_install() is needed in case a resize is done, or to prevent a resize. Mateusz provided an RFC patch and a micro benchmark : http://people.redhat.com/~mguzik/pipebench.c A resize is an unlikely operation in a process lifetime, as table size is at least doubled at every resize. We can use RCU instead of the spinlock. __fd_install() must wait if a resize is in progress. The resize must block new __fd_install() callers from starting, and wait that ongoing install are finished (synchronize_sched()) resize should be attempted by a single thread to not waste resources. rcu_sched variant is used, as __fd_install() and expand_fdtable() run from process context.

Also solves problem of running IO completion transactions in interrupt context during size extending AIO writes. - FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE support for inserting holes into a file via direct extent manipulation to avoid needing to copy data within the file - attribute block header field overflow fix for 64k block size filesystems - Lots of changes to log messaging to be more informative and concise when errors occur. Also prevent a lot of unnecessary log spamming due to cascading failures in error conditions. - lots of cleanups and bug fixes One thing of note is the direct IO fixes that we merged last week after the window opened. Even though a little late, they fix a user reported data corruption and have been pretty well tested. I figured there was not much point waiting another 2 weeks for -rc1 to be released just so I could send them to you..." * tag 'xfs-for-linus-4.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs: (49 commits) xfs: using generic_file_direct_write() is unnecessary xfs: direct IO EOF zeroing needs to drain AIO xfs: DIO write completion size updates race xfs: DIO writes within EOF don't need an ioend xfs: handle DIO overwrite EOF update completion correctly xfs: DIO needs an ioend for writes xfs: move DIO mapping size calculation xfs: factor DIO write mapping from get_blocks xfs: unlock i_mutex in xfs_break_layouts xfs: kill unnecessary firstused overflow check on attr3 leaf removal xfs: use larger in-core attr firstused field and detect overflow xfs: pass attr geometry to attr leaf header conversion functions xfs: disallow ro->rw remount on norecovery mount xfs: xfs_shift_file_space can be static xfs: Add support FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE for fallocate fs: Add support FALLOC_FL_INSERT_RANGE for fallocate xfs: Fix incorrect positive ENOMEM return xfs: xfs_mru_cache_insert() should use GFP_NOFS xfs: %pF is only for function pointers xfs: fix shadow warning in xfs_da3_root_split() ...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We recently removed deprecated sysctls; may as well remove deprecated mount options as well, we've stated that they'd be gone by now in the docs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ifconfig command has been deprecated for many years. To encourage new users not to continue using it and learning iproute2; the ifconfig should not be used in examples.
