Secure-host is the general term for the capability of a device
to protect itself and the subnet from malicious host software.
This is achieved by:
1. Not allowing un-trusted entities to access device configuration
registers, directly (through pci_cr or pci_conf) and indirectly
(through MADs).
2. Hiding M_Key from untrusted entities.
3. Preventing the modification of GUID0 by un-trusted entities
4. Not allowing drivers on untrusted hosts to receive nor to transmit
packets over QP0 (SMP Firewall).
The secure-host capability depends on firmware handling all QP0
packets, and not passing these packets up to the driver. Any information
required by the driver for proper operation (e.g., SM lid) is passed
via events generated by the firmware while processing QP0 MADs.
Driver support mainly requires using the MAD_DEMUX FW command at startup,
where the feature is enabled/disabled through a procedure described in
the Mellanox HCA tools package.

Michel Dänzer and a couple of other people reported inexplicable random
oopses in the scheduler, and the cause turns out to be gcc mis-compiling
the load_balance() function when debugging is enabled. The gcc bug
apparently goes back to gcc-4.5, but slight optimization changes means
that it now showed up as a problem in 4.9.0 and 4.9.1.
The instruction scheduling problem causes gcc to schedule a spill
operation to before the stack frame has been created, which in turn can
corrupt the spilled value if an interrupt comes in. There may be other
effects of this bug too, but that's the code generation problem seen in
Michel's case.
This is fixed in current gcc HEAD, but the workaround as suggested by
Markus Trippelsdorf is pretty simple: use -fno-var-tracking-assignments
when compiling the kernel, which disables the gcc code that causes the
problem. This can result in slightly worse debug information for
variable accesses, but that is infinitely preferable to actual code
generation problems.
Doing this unconditionally (not just for CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO) also allows
non-debug builds to verify that the debug build would be identical: we
can do
export GCC_COMPARE_DEBUG=1
to make gcc internally verify that the result of the build is
independent of the "-g" flag (it will make the compiler build everything
twice, toggling the debug flag, and compare the results).
Without the "-fno-var-tracking-assignments" option, the build would fail
(even with 4.8.3 that didn't show the actual stack frame bug) with a gcc
compare failure.

Shortly before 3.16-rc1, Dave Jones reported:

CPU: 3 PID: 19721 Comm: trinity-c61 Not tainted 3.15.0+ #3

etc.
970 if (WARN_ON_ONCE((current->flags & (PF_MEMALLOC|PF_KSWAPD)) ==
971 PF_MEMALLOC))
I did not respond at the time, because a glance at the PageDirty block
in shrink_page_list() quickly shows that this is impossible: we don't do
writeback on file pages (other than tmpfs) from direct reclaim nowadays.
Dave was hallucinating, but it would have been disrespectful to say so.
However, my own /var/log/messages now shows similar complaints
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 28814 at fs/ext4/inode.c:1881 ext4_writepage+0xa7/0x38b()
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 27347 at fs/ext4/inode.c:1764 ext4_writepage+0xa7/0x38b()
from stressing some mmotm trees during July.
Could a dirty xfs or ext4 file page somehow get marked PageSwapBacked,
so fail shrink_page_list()'s page_is_file_cache() test, and so proceed
to mapping->a_ops->writepage()?
Yes, 3.16-rc1's commit 68711a746345 ("mm, migration: add destination
page freeing callback") has provided such a way to compaction: if
migrating a SwapBacked page fails, its newpage may be put back on the
list for later use with PageSwapBacked still set, and nothing will clear
it.
Whether that can do anything worse than issue WARN_ON_ONCEs, and get
some statistics wrong, is unclear: easier to fix than to think through
the consequences.
Fixing it here, before the put_new_page(), addresses the bug directly,
but is probably the worst place to fix it. Page migration is doing too
many parts of the job on too many levels: fixing it in
move_to_new_page() to complement its SetPageSwapBacked would be
preferable, except why is it (and newpage->mapping and newpage->index)
done there, rather than down in migrate_page_move_mapping(), once we are
sure of success? Not a cleanup to get into right now, especially not
with memcg cleanups coming in 3.17.

Promote one fix for 3.16
This fix was necessary after
9c15a24b038f ("x86/mce: Improve mcheck_init_device() error handling")
went in. What this patch did was, among others, check the return value
of misc_register and exit early if it encountered an error. Original
code sloppily didn't do that.
However,
cef12ee52b05 ("xen/mce: Add mcelog support for Xen platform")
made it so that xen's init routine xen_late_init_mcelog runs first. This
was needed for the xen mcelog device which is supposed to be independent
from the baremetal one.
Initially it was reported that misc_register() fails often on xen and
that's why it needed fixing. However, it is *supposed* to fail by
design, when running in dom0 so that the xen mcelog device file gets
registered first.
And *then* you need the notifier *not* unregistered on the error path so
that the timer does get deleted properly in the CPU hotplug notifier.
Btw, this fix is needed also on baremetal in the unlikely event that
misc_register(&mce_chrdev_device) fails there too.
I was unsure whether to rush it in now and decided to delay it to 3.17.
However, xen people wanted it promoted as it breaks xen when doing cpu
hotplug there. So, after a bit of simmering in tip/master for initial
smoke testing, let's move it to 3.16. It fixes a semi-regression which
got introduced in 3.16 so no need for stable tagging.
tip/x86/ras contains that exact same commit but we can't remove it
there as it is not the last one. It won't cause any merge issues, as I
confirmed locally but I should state here the special situation of this
one fix explicitly anyway.
Thanks.

Temperature limit clamps are applied after converting the temperature
from milli-degrees C to degrees C, so either the clamp limit needs
to be specified in degrees C, not milli-degrees C, or clamping must
happen before converting to degrees C. Use the latter method to avoid
overflows.
vrm is an u8, so the written value needs to be limited to [0, 255].

Maybe it's better to move initializing "to" and "from" out of

If a filesystem uses simple_xattr to support user extended attributes,
LTP setxattr01 and xfstests generic/062 fail with "Cannot allocate
memory": simple_xattr_alloc()'s wrap-around test mistakenly excludes
values of zero size. Fix that off-by-one (but apparently no filesystem
needs them yet).

I wanted to revert my v3.1 commit d0823576bf4b ("mm: pincer in
truncate_inode_pages_range"), to keep truncate_inode_pages_range() in
synch with shmem_undo_range(); but have stepped back - a change to
hole-punching in truncate_inode_pages_range() is a change to
hole-punching in every filesystem (except tmpfs) that supports it.
If there's a logical proof why no filesystem can depend for its own
correctness on the pincer guarantee in truncate_inode_pages_range() - an
instant when the entire hole is removed from pagecache - then let's
revisit later. But the evidence is that only tmpfs suffered from the
livelock, and we have no intention of extending hole-punch to ramfs. So
for now just add a few comments (to match or differ from those in
shmem_undo_range()), and fix one silliness noticed in d0823576bf4b...
Its "index == start" addition to the hole-punch termination test was
incomplete: it opened a way for the end condition to be missed, and the
loop go on looking through the radix_tree, all the way to end of file.
Fix that pessimization by resetting index when detected in inner loop.
Note that it's actually hard to hit this case, without the obsessive
concurrent faulting that trinity does: normally all pages are removed in
the initial trylock_page() pass, and this loop finds nothing to do. I
had to "#if 0" out the initial pass to reproduce bug and test fix.

shmem_fault() is the actual culprit in trinity's hole-punch starvation,
and the most significant cause of such problems: since a page faulted is
one that then appears page_mapped(), needing unmap_mapping_range() and
i_mmap_mutex to be unmapped again.
But it is not the only way in which a page can be brought into a hole in
the radix_tree while that hole is being punched; and Vlastimil's testing
implies that if enough other processors are busy filling in the hole,
then shmem_undo_range() can be kept from completing indefinitely.
shmem_file_splice_read() is the main other user of SGP_CACHE, which can
instantiate shmem pagecache pages in the read-only case (without holding
i_mutex, so perhaps concurrently with a hole-punch). Probably it's
silly not to use SGP_READ already (using the ZERO_PAGE for holes): which
ought to be safe, but might bring surprises - not a change to be rushed.
shmem_read_mapping_page_gfp() is an internal interface used by
drivers/gpu/drm GEM (and next by uprobes): it should be okay. And
shmem_file_read_iter() uses the SGP_DIRTY variant of SGP_CACHE, when
called internally by the kernel (perhaps for a stacking filesystem,
which might rely on holes to be reserved): it's unclear whether it could
be provoked to keep hole-punch busy or not.
We could apply the same umbrella as now used in shmem_fault() to
shmem_file_splice_read() and the others; but it looks ugly, and use over
a range raises questions - should it actually be per page? can these get
starved themselves?
The origin of this part of the problem is my v3.1 commit d0823576bf4b
("mm: pincer in truncate_inode_pages_range"), once it was duplicated
into shmem.c. It seemed like a nice idea at the time, to ensure
(barring RCU lookup fuzziness) that there's an instant when the entire
hole is empty; but the indefinitely repeated scans to ensure that make
it vulnerable.
Revert that "enhancement" to hole-punch from shmem_undo_range(), but
retain the unproblematic rescanning when it's truncating; add a couple
of comments there.
Remove the "indices[0] >= end" test: that is now handled satisfactorily
by the inner loop, and mem_cgroup_uncharge_start()/end() are too light
to be worth avoiding here.
But if we do not always loop indefinitely, we do need to handle the case
of swap swizzled back to page before shmem_free_swap() gets it: add a
retry for that case, as suggested by Konstantin Khlebnikov; and for the
case of page swizzled back to swap, as suggested by Johannes Weiner.

Commit f00cdc6df7d7 ("shmem: fix faulting into a hole while it's
punched") was buggy: Sasha sent a lockdep report to remind us that
grabbing i_mutex in the fault path is a no-no (write syscall may already
hold i_mutex while faulting user buffer).
We tried a completely different approach (see following patch) but that
proved inadequate: good enough for a rational workload, but not good
enough against trinity - which forks off so many mappings of the object
that contention on i_mmap_mutex while hole-puncher holds i_mutex builds
into serious starvation when concurrent faults force the puncher to fall
back to single-page unmap_mapping_range() searches of the i_mmap tree.
So return to the original umbrella approach, but keep away from i_mutex
this time. We really don't want to bloat every shmem inode with a new
mutex or completion, just to protect this unlikely case from trinity.
So extend the original with wait_queue_head on stack at the hole-punch
end, and wait_queue item on the stack at the fault end.
This involves further use of i_lock to guard against the races: lockdep
has been happy so far, and I see fs/inode.c:unlock_new_inode() holds
i_lock around wake_up_bit(), which is comparable to what we do here.
i_lock is more convenient, but we could switch to shmem's info->lock.
This issue has been tagged with CVE-2014-4171, which will require commit
f00cdc6df7d7 and this and the following patch to be backported: we
suggest to 3.1+, though in fact the trinity forkbomb effect might go
back as far as 2.6.16, when madvise(,,MADV_REMOVE) came in - or might
not, since much has changed, with i_mmap_mutex a spinlock before 3.0.
Anyone running trinity on 3.0 and earlier? I don't think we need care.

Ingo Korb reported that "repeated mapping of the same file on tmpfs
using remap_file_pages sometimes triggers a BUG at mm/filemap.c:202 when
the process exits".
He bisected the bug to d7c1755179b8 ("mm: implement ->map_pages for
shmem/tmpfs"), although the bug was actually added by commit
8c6e50b0290c ("mm: introduce vm_ops->map_pages()").
The problem is caused by calling do_fault_around for a _non-linear_
fault. In this case pgoff is shifted and might become negative during
calculation.
Faulting around non-linear page-fault makes no sense and breaks the
logic in do_fault_around because pgoff is shifted.

When compiling a SH2A kernel (e.g. se7206_defconfig or rsk7203_defconfig)
using sh4-linux-gcc, linking fails with:
net/built-in.o: In function `__sk_run_filter':
net/core/filter.c:566: undefined reference to `__fpscr_values'
net/core/filter.c:269: undefined reference to `__fpscr_values'
...
net/built-in.o:net/core/filter.c:580: more undefined references to `__fpscr_values' follow
This happens because sh4-linux-gcc doesn't support the "-m2a-nofpu",
which is thus filtered out by "$(call cc-option, ...)".
As compiling using sh4-linux-gcc is useful for compile coverage, also
try passing "-m4-nofpu" (which is presumably filtered out when using a
real sh2a-linux toolchain) to disable the generation of FPU instructions
and references to __fpscr_values[].

Sasha reported lockdep warning [1] introduced by [2].
It could be fixed by doing disk revalidation out of the init_lock. It's
okay because disk capacity change is protected by init_lock so that
revalidate_disk always sees up-to-date value so there is no race.

I triggered VM_BUG_ON() in vma_address() when I tried to migrate an
anonymous hugepage with mbind() in the kernel v3.16-rc3. This is
because pgoff's calculation in rmap_walk_anon() fails to consider
compound_order() only to have an incorrect value.
This patch introduces page_to_pgoff(), which gets the page's offset in
PAGE_CACHE_SIZE.
Kirill pointed out that page cache tree should natively handle
hugepages, and in order to make hugetlbfs fit it, page->index of
hugetlbfs page should be in PAGE_CACHE_SIZE. This is beyond this patch,
but page_to_pgoff() contains the point to be fixed in a single function.

Commit 079148b919d0 ("coredump: factor out the setting of PF_DUMPCORE")
cleaned up the setting of PF_DUMPCORE by removing it from all the
linux_binfmt->core_dump() and moving it to zap_threads().But this ended
up clearing all the previously set flags. This causes issues during
core generation when tsk->flags is checked again (eg. for PF_USED_MATH
to dump floating point registers). Fix this.
