dax: prevent invalidation of mapped DAX entries

2017-05-20T12:49:48+00:00

commit 4636e70bb0a8b871998b6841a2e4b205cf2bc863 upstream. Patch series "mm,dax: Fix data corruption due to mmap inconsistency", v4. This series fixes data corruption that can happen for DAX mounts when page faults race with write(2) and as a result page tables get out of sync with block mappings in the filesystem and thus data seen through mmap is different from data seen through read(2). The series passes testing with t_mmap_stale test program from Ross and also other mmap related tests on DAX filesystem. This patch (of 4): dax_invalidate_mapping_entry() currently removes DAX exceptional entries only if they are clean and unlocked. This is done via: invalidate_mapping_pages() invalidate_exceptional_entry() dax_invalidate_mapping_entry() However, for page cache pages removed in invalidate_mapping_pages() there is an additional criteria which is that the page must not be mapped. This is noted in the comments above invalidate_mapping_pages() and is checked in invalidate_inode_page(). For DAX entries this means that we can can end up in a situation where a DAX exceptional entry, either a huge zero page or a regular DAX entry, could end up mapped but without an associated radix tree entry. This is inconsistent with the rest of the DAX code and with what happens in the page cache case. We aren't able to unmap the DAX exceptional entry because according to its comments invalidate_mapping_pages() isn't allowed to block, and unmap_mapping_range() takes a write lock on the mapping->i_mmap_rwsem. Since we essentially never have unmapped DAX entries to evict from the radix tree, just remove dax_invalidate_mapping_entry().

mm: vmscan: fix IO/refault regression in cache workingset transition

2017-05-20T12:49:46+00:00

commit 2a2e48854d704214dac7546e87ae0e4daa0e61a0 upstream. Since commit 59dc76b0d4df ("mm: vmscan: reduce size of inactive file list") we noticed bigger IO spikes during changes in cache access patterns. The patch in question shrunk the inactive list size to leave more room for the current workingset in the presence of streaming IO. However, workingset transitions that previously happened on the inactive list are now pushed out of memory and incur more refaults to complete. This patch disables active list protection when refaults are being observed. This accelerates workingset transitions, and allows more of the new set to establish itself from memory, without eating into the ability to protect the established workingset during stable periods. The workloads that were measurably affected for us were hit pretty bad by it, with refault/majfault rates doubling and tripling during cache transitions, and the machines sustaining half-hour periods of 100% IO utilization, where they'd previously have sub-minute peaks at 60-90%. Stateful services that handle user data tend to be more conservative with kernel upgrades. As a result we hit most page cache issues with some delay, as was the case here. The severity seemed to warrant a stable tag.

Revert "KVM: Support vCPU-based gfn->hva cache"

2017-05-20T12:49:42+00:00

commit 4e335d9e7ddbcf83d03e7fbe65797ebed2272c18 upstream. This reverts commit bbd6411513aa8ef3ea02abab61318daf87c1af1e. I've been sitting on this revert for too long and it unfortunately missed 4.11. It's also the reason why I haven't merged ring-based dirty tracking for 4.12. Using kvm_vcpu_memslots in kvm_gfn_to_hva_cache_init and kvm_vcpu_write_guest_offset_cached means that the MSR value can now be used to access SMRAM, simply by making it point to an SMRAM physical address. This is problematic because it lets the guest OS overwrite memory that it shouldn't be able to touch.

block: get rid of blk_integrity_revalidate()

2017-05-14T12:06:03+00:00

commit 19b7ccf8651df09d274671b53039c672a52ad84d upstream. Commit 25520d55cdb6 ("block: Inline blk_integrity in struct gendisk") introduced blk_integrity_revalidate(), which seems to assume ownership of the stable pages flag and unilaterally clears it if no blk_integrity profile is registered: if (bi->profile) disk->queue->backing_dev_info->capabilities |= BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES; else disk->queue->backing_dev_info->capabilities &= ~BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES; It's called from revalidate_disk() and rescan_partitions(), making it impossible to enable stable pages for drivers that support partitions and don't use blk_integrity: while the call in revalidate_disk() can be trivially worked around (see zram, which doesn't support partitions and hence gets away with zram_revalidate_disk()), rescan_partitions() can be triggered from userspace at any time. This breaks rbd, where the ceph messenger is responsible for generating/verifying CRCs. Since blk_integrity_{un,}register() "must" be used for (un)registering the integrity profile with the block layer, move BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES setting there. This way drivers that call blk_integrity_register() and use integrity infrastructure won't interfere with drivers that don't but still want stable pages.

net: phy: fix auto-negotiation stall due to unavailable interrupt

2017-04-26T18:32:00+00:00

The Ethernet link on an interrupt driven PHY was not coming up if the Ethernet cable was plugged before the Ethernet interface was brought up. The patch trigger PHY state machine to update link state if PHY was requested to do auto-negotiation and auto-negotiation complete flag already set. During power-up cycle the PHY do auto-negotiation, generate interrupt and set auto-negotiation complete flag. Interrupt is handled by PHY state machine but doesn't update link state because PHY is in PHY_READY state. After some time MAC bring up, start and request PHY to do auto-negotiation. If there are no new settings to advertise genphy_config_aneg() doesn't start PHY auto-negotiation. PHY continue to stay in auto-negotiation complete state and doesn't fire interrupt. At the same time PHY state machine expect that PHY started auto-negotiation and is waiting for interrupt from PHY and it won't get it.

mmc: sdio: fix alignment issue in struct sdio_func

2017-04-18T17:18:07+00:00

Certain 64-bit systems (e.g. Amlogic Meson GX) require buffers to be used for DMA to be 8-byte-aligned. struct sdio_func has an embedded small DMA buffer not meeting this requirement. When testing switching to descriptor chain mode in meson-gx driver SDIO is broken therefore. Fix this by allocating the small DMA buffer separately as kmalloc ensures that the returned memory area is properly aligned for every basic data type.
