2013-11-13mm/nobootmem.c: have __free_pages_memory() free in larger chunks.Robin Holt
On large memory machines it can take a few minutes to get through free_all_bootmem(). Currently, when free_all_bootmem() calls __free_pages_memory(), the number of contiguous pages that __free_pages_memory() passes to the buddy allocator is limited to BITS_PER_LONG. BITS_PER_LONG was originally chosen to keep things similar to mm/nobootmem.c. But it is more efficient to limit it to MAX_ORDER. base new change 8TB 202s 172s 30s 16TB 401s 351s 50s That is around 1%-3% improvement on total boot time. This patch was spun off from the boot time rfc Robin and I had been working on.

2013-11-13ocfs2: delay migration when the lockres is in migration stateXue jiufei
We trigger a bug in __dlm_lockres_reserve_ast() when we parallel umount 4 nodes. The situation is as follows: 1) Node A migrate all lockres it owned(eg. lockres A) to other nodes say node B when it umounts. 2) Receiving MIG_LOCKRES message from A, Node B masters the lockres A with DLM_LOCK_RES_MIGRATING state set. 3) Then we umount ocfs2 on node B. It also should migrate lockres A to another node, say node C. But now, DLM_LOCK_RES_MIGRATING state of lockers A is not cleared. Node B triggered the BUG on lockres with state DLM_LOCK_RES_MIGRATING.

2013-11-13ocfs2: skip locks in the blocked listXue jiufei
A parallel umount on 4 nodes triggered a bug in dlm_process_recovery_date(). Here's the situation: Receiving MIG_LOCKRES message, A node processes the locks in migratable lockres. It copys lvb from migratable lockres when processing the first valid lock. If there is a lock in the blocked list with the EX level, it triggers the BUG. Since valid lvbs are set when locks are granted with EX or PR levels, locks in the blocked list cannot have valid lvbs. Therefore I think we should skip the locks in the blocked list.

2013-11-13kthread: make kthread_create() killableTetsuo Handa
Any user process callers of wait_for_completion() except global init process might be chosen by the OOM killer while waiting for completion() call by some other process which does memory allocation. See CVE-2012-4398 "kernel: request_module() OOM local DoS" can happen. When such users are chosen by the OOM killer when they are waiting for completion() in TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE, the system will be kept stressed due to memory starvation because the OOM killer cannot kill such users. kthread_create() is one of such users and this patch fixes the problem for kthreadd by making kthread_create() killable - the same approach used for fixing CVE-2012-4398.

2013-11-12tools lib traceevent: Add direct access to dynamic arraysSteven Rostedt
Jiri Olsa was writing a plugin for the cfg80211_tx_mlme_mgmt trace event, and was not able to get the implemented function working. The event's print fmt looks like: "netdev:%s(%d), ftype:0x%.2x", REC->name, REC->ifindex, __le16_to_cpup((__le16 *)__get_dynamic_array(frame)) As there's no helper function for __le16_to_cpup(), Jiri was creating one with a plugin. But unfortunately, it would not work even though he set up the plugin correctly. The problem is that the function parameters do not handle the helper function "__get_dynamic_array()", and that passes in a NULL pointer. Adding PRINT_DYNAMIC_ARRAY direct support to eval_num_arg() allows the use of __get_dynamic_array() in function parameters.

2013-11-12x86/dumpstack: Fix printk_address for direct addressesJiri Slaby
Consider a kernel crash in a module, simulated the following way: static int my_init(void) { char *map = (void *)0x5; *map = 3; return 0; } module_init(my_init); When we turn off FRAME_POINTERs, the very first instruction in that function causes a BUG. The problem is that we print IP in the BUG report using %pB (from printk_address). And %pB decrements the pointer by one to fix printing addresses of functions with tail calls. This was added in commit 71f9e59800e5ad4 ("x86, dumpstack: Use %pB format specifier for stack trace") to fix the call stack printouts. So instead of correct output: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000005 IP: [<ffffffffa01ac000>] my_init+0x0/0x10 [pb173] We get: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000005 IP: [<ffffffffa0152000>] 0xffffffffa0151fff To fix that, we use %pS only for stack addresses printouts (via newly added printk_stack_address) and %pB for regs->ip (via printk_address). I.e. we revert to the old behaviour for all except call stacks. And since from all those reliable is 1, we remove that parameter from printk_address.

Getting unwieldly long, for this app domain should be descriptive enough and the use of __ to separate the class from the method names should help with avoiding clashes with other code bases.

2013-11-12perf evlist: Round mmap pages to power 2 - v2David Ahern
Currently perf requires the -m / --mmap_pages option to be a power of 2. To be more user friendly perf should automatically round this up to the next power of 2. Currently: $ perf record -m 3 -a -- sleep 1 --mmap_pages/-m value must be a power of two.sleep: Terminated With patch: $ perf record -m 3 -a -- sleep 1 rounding mmap pages size to 16384 (4 pages) ... v2: Add bytes units to rounding message per Ingo's request. Other suggestions (e.g., prefixing INFO) should be addressed by wrapping pr_info to catch all instances.
