94f2f14234 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace and namespace infrastructure changes from Eric W Biederman:
 "This set of changes starts with a few small enhnacements to the user
  namespace.  reboot support, allowing more arbitrary mappings, and
  support for mounting devpts, ramfs, tmpfs, and mqueuefs as just the
  user namespace root.

  I do my best to document that if you care about limiting your
  unprivileged users that when you have the user namespace support
  enabled you will need to enable memory control groups.

  There is a minor bug fix to prevent overflowing the stack if someone
  creates way too many user namespaces.

  The bulk of the changes are a continuation of the kuid/kgid push down
  work through the filesystems.  These changes make using uids and gids
  typesafe which ensures that these filesystems are safe to use when
  multiple user namespaces are in use.  The filesystems converted for
  3.9 are ceph, 9p, afs, ocfs2, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, nfsd, and cifs.  The
  changes for these filesystems were a little more involved so I split
  the changes into smaller hopefully obviously correct changes.

  XFS is the only filesystem that remains.  I was hoping I could get
  that in this release so that user namespace support would be enabled
  with an allyesconfig or an allmodconfig but it looks like the xfs
  changes need another couple of days before it they are ready."

3b8cd8a015 ARM: KVM: fix compilation after removal of user_alloc from struct kvm_memory_slot
Commit 7a905b1 (KVM: Remove user_alloc from struct kvm_memory_slot)
broke KVM/ARM by removing the user_alloc field from a public structure.

As we only used this field to alert the user that we didn't support
this operation mode, there is no harm in discarding this bit of code
without any remorse.

a883b70d8e tty vt: fix character insertion overflow
Commit 81732c3b2f ("tty vt: Fix line garbage in virtual console on
command line edition") broke insert_char() in multiple ways.  Then
commit b1a925f44a ("tty vt: Fix a regression in command line edition")
partially fixed it.  However, the buffer being moved is still too large
and overflowing beyond the end of the current line, corrupting existing
characters on the next line.

Example test case:

echo -e "abc\nde\x1b[A\x1b[4h \x1b[4l\x1b[B"

Expected result:

ab c
de

Current result:

ab c
 e

Needless to say that this is very annoying when inserting words in the
middle of paragraphs with certain text editors.

ef53d16cde ksm: allocate roots when needed
It is a pity to have MAX_NUMNODES+MAX_NUMNODES tree roots statically
allocated, particularly when very few users will ever actually tune
merge_across_nodes 0 to use more than 1+1 of those trees.  Not a big
deal (only 16kB wasted on each machine with CONFIG_MAXSMP), but a pity.

Start off with 1+1 statically allocated, then if merge_across_nodes is
ever tuned, allocate for nr_node_ids+nr_node_ids.  Do not attempt to
free up the extra if it's tuned back, that would be a waste of effort.

56f31801cc mm: cleanup "swapcache" in do_swap_page
I dislike the way in which "swapcache" gets used in do_swap_page():
there is always a page from swapcache there (even if maybe uncached by
the time we lock it), but tests are made according to "swapcache".
Rework that with "page != swapcache", as has been done in unuse_pte().

9e16b7fb1d mm,ksm: swapoff might need to copy
Before establishing that KSM page migration was the cause of my
WARN_ON_ONCE(page_mapped(page))s, I suspected that they came from the
lack of a ksm_might_need_to_copy() in swapoff's unuse_pte() - which in
many respects is equivalent to faulting in a page.

In fact I've never caught that as the cause: but in theory it does at
least need the KSM_RUN_UNMERGE check in ksm_might_need_to_copy(), to
avoid bringing a KSM page back in when it's not supposed to be.

I intended to copy how it's done in do_swap_page(), but have a strong
aversion to how "swapcache" ends up being used there: rework it with
"page != swapcache".

5117b3b835 mm,ksm: FOLL_MIGRATION do migration_entry_wait
In "ksm: remove old stable nodes more thoroughly" I said that I'd never
seen its WARN_ON_ONCE(page_mapped(page)).  True at the time of writing,
but it soon appeared once I tried fuller tests on the whole series.

It turned out to be due to the KSM page migration itself: unmerge_and_
remove_all_rmap_items() failed to locate and replace all the KSM pages,
because of that hiatus in page migration when old pte has been replaced
by migration entry, but not yet by new pte.  follow_page() finds no page
at that instant, but a KSM page reappears shortly after, without a
fault.

Add FOLL_MIGRATION flag, so follow_page() can do migration_entry_wait()
for KSM's break_cow().  I'd have preferred to avoid another flag, and do
it every time, in case someone else makes the same easy mistake; but did
not find another transgressor (the common get_user_pages() is of course
safe), and cannot be sure that every follow_page() caller is prepared to
sleep - ia64's xencomm_vtop()? Now, THP's wait_split_huge_page() can
already sleep there, since anon_vma locking was changed to mutex, but
maybe that's somehow excluded.

bc56620b49 ksm: shrink 32-bit rmap_item back to 32 bytes
Think of struct rmap_item as an extension of struct page (restricted to
MADV_MERGEABLE areas): there may be a lot of them, we need to keep them
small, especially on 32-bit architectures of limited lowmem.

Siting "int nid" after "unsigned int checksum" works nicely on 64-bit,
making no change to its 64-byte struct rmap_item; but bloats the 32-bit
struct rmap_item from (nicely cache-aligned) 32 bytes to 36 bytes, which
rounds up to 40 bytes once allocated from slab.  We'd better avoid that.

Hey, I only just remembered that the anon_vma pointer in struct
rmap_item has no purpose until the rmap_item is hung from a stable tree
node (which has its own nid field); and rmap_item's nid field no purpose
than to say which tree root to tell rb_erase() when unlinking from an
unstable tree.

Double them up in a union.  There's just one place where we set anon_vma
early (when we already hold mmap_sem): now we must remove tree_rmap_item
from its unstable tree there, before overwriting nid.  No need to
spatter BUG()s around: we'd be seeing oopses if this were wrong.

b599cbdf1c ksm: treat unstable nid like in stable tree
An inconsistency emerged in reviewing the NUMA node changes to KSM: when
meeting a page from the wrong NUMA node in a stable tree, we say that
it's okay for comparisons, but not as a leaf for merging; whereas when
meeting a page from the wrong NUMA node in an unstable tree, we bail out
immediately.

Now, it might be that a wrong NUMA node in an unstable tree is more
likely to correlate with instablility (different content, with rbnode
now misplaced) than page migration; but even so, we are accustomed to
instablility in the unstable tree.

Without strong evidence for which strategy is generally better, I'd
rather be consistent with what's done in the stable tree: accept a page
from the wrong NUMA node for comparison, but not as a leaf for merging.

49cd0a5c29 tmpfs: fix mempolicy object leaks
Fix several mempolicy leaks in the tmpfs mount logic.  These leaks are
slow - on the order of one object leaked per mount attempt.

Leak 1 (umount doesn't free mpol allocated in mount):
    while true; do
        mount -t tmpfs -o mpol=interleave,size=100M nodev /mnt
        umount /mnt
    done

Leak 2 (errors parsing remount options will leak mpol):
    mount -t tmpfs -o size=100M nodev /mnt
    while true; do
        mount -o remount,mpol=interleave,size=x /mnt 2> /dev/null
    done
    umount /mnt

Leak 3 (multiple mpol per mount leak mpol):
    while true; do
        mount -t tmpfs -o mpol=interleave,mpol=interleave,size=100M nodev /mnt
        umount /mnt
    done

This patch fixes all of the above.  I could have broken the patch into
three pieces but is seemed easier to review as one.

5f00110f72 tmpfs: fix use-after-free of mempolicy object
The tmpfs remount logic preserves filesystem mempolicy if the mpol=M
option is not specified in the remount request.  A new policy can be
specified if mpol=M is given.

Before this patch remounting an mpol bound tmpfs without specifying
mpol= mount option in the remount request would set the filesystem's
mempolicy object to a freed mempolicy object.

To reproduce the problem boot a DEBUG_PAGEALLOC kernel and run:
    # mkdir /tmp/x

    # mount -t tmpfs -o size=100M,mpol=interleave nodev /tmp/x

    # grep /tmp/x /proc/mounts
    nodev /tmp/x tmpfs rw,relatime,size=102400k,mpol=interleave:0-3 0 0

    # mount -o remount,size=200M nodev /tmp/x

    # grep /tmp/x /proc/mounts
    nodev /tmp/x tmpfs rw,relatime,size=204800k,mpol=??? 0 0
        # note ? garbage in mpol=... output above

Non-debug kernels will not crash immediately because referencing the
dangling mpol will not cause a fault.  Instead the filesystem will
reference a freed mempolicy object, which will cause unpredictable
behavior.

The problem boils down to a dropped mpol reference below if
shmem_parse_options() does not allocate a new mpol:

    config = *sbinfo
    shmem_parse_options(data, &config, true)
    mpol_put(sbinfo->mpol)
    sbinfo->mpol = config.mpol  /* BUG: saves unreferenced mpol */

This patch avoids the crash by not releasing the mempolicy if
shmem_parse_options() doesn't create a new mpol.

How far back does this issue go? I see it in both 2.6.36 and 3.3.  I did
not look back further.

67d46b296a mm/fadvise.c: drain all pagevecs if POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED fails to discard all pages
Rob van der Heij reported the following (paraphrased) on private mail.

	The scenario is that I want to avoid backups to fill up the page
	cache and purge stuff that is more likely to be used again (this is
	with s390x Linux on z/VM, so I don't give it as much memory that
	we don't care anymore). So I have something with LD_PRELOAD that
	intercepts the close() call (from tar, in this case) and issues
	a posix_fadvise() just before closing the file.

	This mostly works, except for small files (less than 14 pages)
	that remains in page cache after the face.

Unfortunately Rob has not had a chance to test this exact patch but the
test program below should be reproducing the problem he described.

The issue is the per-cpu pagevecs for LRU additions.  If the pages are
added by one CPU but fadvise() is called on another then the pages
remain resident as the invalidate_mapping_pages() only drains the local
pagevecs via its call to pagevec_release().  The user-visible effect is
that a program that uses fadvise() properly is not obeyed.

A possible fix for this is to put the necessary smarts into
invalidate_mapping_pages() to globally drain the LRU pagevecs if a
pagevec page could not be discarded.  The downside with this is that an
inode cache shrink would send a global IPI and memory pressure
potentially causing global IPI storms is very undesirable.

Instead, this patch adds a check during fadvise(POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) to
check if invalidate_mapping_pages() discarded all the requested pages.
If a subset of pages are discarded it drains the LRU pagevecs and tries
again.  If the second attempt fails, it assumes it is due to the pages
being mapped, locked or dirty and does not care.  With this patch, an
application using fadvise() correctly will be obeyed but there is a
downside that a malicious application can force the kernel to send
global IPIs and increase overhead.

If accepted, I would like this to be considered as a -stable candidate.
It's not an urgent issue but it's a system call that is not working as
advertised which is weak.

The following test program demonstrates the problem.  It should never
report that pages are still resident but will without this patch.  It
assumes that CPU 0 and 1 exist.

int main() {
	int fd;
	int pagesize = getpagesize();

	}
	unlink("fadvise-test-file");
	while (written < expected) {
		ssize_t this_write;
		this_write = write(fd, buf + written, expected - written);

		if (this_write == -1) {
			perror("write");
			exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
		}

		written += this_write;
	}
	free(buf);

	if (sched_setaffinity(getpid(), sizeof(set), &set) == -1) {
		perror("sched_setaffinity");
		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}

	fsync(fd);
	if (posix_fadvise(fd, 0, expected, POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED) == -1) {

		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}

		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}
	if (mincore(buf, expected, vec) == -1) {

		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}

	/* Check residency */
	for (i = 0, resident = 0; i < FILESIZE_PAGES; i++) {
		if (vec[i])
			resident++;
	}
	if (resident != 0) {
		printf("Nr unexpected pages resident: %d\n", resident);
		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}

	munmap(buf, expected);
	close(fd);
	free(vec);
	exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);

fa794199e3 mm: export mmu notifier invalidates
We at SGI have a need to address some very high physical address ranges
with our GRU (global reference unit), sometimes across partitioned
machine boundaries and sometimes with larger addresses than the cpu
supports.  We do this with the aid of our own 'extended vma' module
which mimics the vma.  When something (either unmap or exit) frees an
'extended vma' we use the mmu notifiers to clean them up.

We had been able to mimic the functions
__mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start() and
__mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() by locking the per-mm lock and
walking the per-mm notifier list.  But with the change to a global srcu
lock (static in mmu_notifier.c) we can no longer do that.  Our module has
no access to that lock.

So we request that these two functions be exported.

240aadeedc mm: accelerate mm_populate() treatment of THP pages
This change adds a follow_page_mask function which is equivalent to
follow_page, but with an extra page_mask argument.

follow_page_mask sets *page_mask to HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1 when it encounters
a THP page, and to 0 in other cases.

__get_user_pages() makes use of this in order to accelerate populating
THP ranges - that is, when both the pages and vmas arrays are NULL, we
don't need to iterate HPAGE_PMD_NR times to cover a single THP page (and
we also avoid taking mm->page_table_lock that many times).

5f4b9fc5c1 HWPOISON: change order of error_states[]'s elements
error_states[] has two separate states "unevictable LRU page" and
"mlocked LRU page", and the former one has the higher priority now.  But
because of that the latter one is rarely chosen because pages with
PageMlocked highly likely have PG_unevictable set.  On the other hand,
PG_unevictable without PageMlocked is common for ramfs or SHM_LOCKed
shared memory, so reversing the priority of these two states helps us
clearly distinguish them.

524fca1e73 HWPOISON: fix misjudgement of page_action() for errors on mlocked pages
memory_failure() can't handle memory errors on mlocked pages correctly,
because page_action() judges such errors as ones on "unknown pages"
instead of ones on "unevictable LRU page" or "mlocked LRU page".  In
order to determine page_state page_action() checks page flags at the
timing of the judgement, but such page flags are not the same with those
just after memory_failure() is called, because memory_failure() does
unmapping of the error pages before doing page_action().  This unmapping
changes the page state, especially page_remove_rmap() (called from
try_to_unmap_one()) clears PG_mlocked, so page_action() can't catch
mlocked pages after that.

With this patch, we store the page flag of the error page before doing
unmap, and (only) if the first check with page flags at the time decided
the error page is unknown, we do the second check with the stored page
flag.  This implementation doesn't change error handling for the page
types for which the first check can determine the page state correctly.

0e50ce3b50 mm: use up free swap space before reaching OOM kill
Recently, Luigi reported there are lots of free swap space when OOM
happens.  It's easily reproduced on zram-over-swap, where many instance
of memory hogs are running and laptop_mode is enabled.  He said there
was no problem when he disabled laptop_mode.  The problem when I
investigate problem is following as.

Assumption for easy explanation: There are no page cache page in system
because they all are already reclaimed.

1. try_to_free_pages disable may_writepage when laptop_mode is enabled.
2. shrink_inactive_list isolates victim pages from inactive anon lru list.
3. shrink_page_list adds them to swapcache via add_to_swap but it doesn't
   pageout because sc->may_writepage is 0 so the page is rotated back into
   inactive anon lru list. The add_to_swap made the page Dirty by SetPageDirty.
4. 3 couldn't reclaim any pages so do_try_to_free_pages increase priority and
   retry reclaim with higher priority.
5. shrink_inactlive_list try to isolate victim pages from inactive anon lru list
   but got failed because it try to isolate pages with ISOLATE_CLEAN mode but
   inactive anon lru list is full of dirty pages by 3 so it just returns
   without  any reclaim progress.
6. do_try_to_free_pages doesn't set may_writepage due to zero total_scanned.
   Because sc->nr_scanned is increased by shrink_page_list but we don't call
   shrink_page_list in 5 due to short of isolated pages.

Above loop is continued until OOM happens.

The problem didn't happen before [1] was merged because old logic's
isolatation in shrink_inactive_list was successful and tried to call
shrink_page_list to pageout them but it still ends up failed to page out
by may_writepage.  But important point is that sc->nr_scanned was
increased although we couldn't swap out them so do_try_to_free_pages
could set may_writepages.

Since commit f80c067361 ("mm: zone_reclaim: make isolate_lru_page()
filter-aware") was introduced, it's not a good idea any more to depends
on only the number of scanned pages for setting may_writepage.  So this
patch adds new trigger point of setting may_writepage as below
DEF_PRIOIRTY - 2 which is used to show the significant memory pressure
in VM so it's good fit for our purpose which would be better to lose
power saving or clickety rather than OOM killing.
