A failed call to kobject_init_and_add() must be followed by a call to
kobject_put(). Currently in the error path when adding fs_devices we
are missing this call. This could be fixed by calling
btrfs_sysfs_remove_fsid() if btrfs_sysfs_add_fsid() returns an error or
by adding a call to kobject_put() directly in btrfs_sysfs_add_fsid().
Here we choose the second option because it prevents the slightly
unusual error path handling requirements of kobject from leaking out
into btrfs functions.
Add a call to kobject_put() in the error path of kobject_add_and_init().
This causes the release method to be called if kobject_init_and_add()
fails. open_tree() is the function that calls btrfs_sysfs_add_fsid()
and the error code in this function is already written with the
assumption that the release method is called during the error path of
open_tree() (as seen by the call to btrfs_sysfs_remove_fsid() under the
fail_fsdev_sysfs label).

If a call to kobject_init_and_add() fails we must call kobject_put()
otherwise we leak memory.
Calling kobject_put() when kobject_init_and_add() fails drops the
refcount back to 0 and calls the ktype release method (which in turn
calls the percpu destroy and kfree).
Add call to kobject_put() in the error path of call to
kobject_init_and_add().

Currently, once configured, AFS cells are looked up in the DNS at regular
intervals - which is a waste of resources if those cells aren't being
used. It also leads to a problem where cells preloaded, but not
configured, before the network is brought up end up effectively statically
configured with no VL servers and are unable to get any.
Fix this by not doing the DNS lookup until the first time a cell is
touched. It is waited for if we don't have any cached records yet,
otherwise the DNS lookup to maintain the record is done in the background.
This has the downside that the first time you touch a cell, you now have to
wait for the upcall to do the required DNS lookups rather than them already
being cached.
Further, the record is not replaced if the old record has at least one
server in it and the new record doesn't have any.

An IOCTL uses up to 2 iovs. The 1st iov is the command itself, the 2nd iov is
optional data for that command. The 1st iov is always allocated on the heap
but the 2nd iov may point to a variable on the stack. This will trigger an
error when passing the 2nd iov for RDMA I/O.
Fix this by allocating a buffer for the 2nd iov.

Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields:
"This consists mostly of nfsd container work:
Scott Mayhew revived an old api that communicates with a userspace
daemon to manage some on-disk state that's used to track clients
across server reboots. We've been using a usermode_helper upcall for
that, but it's tough to run those with the right namespaces, so a
daemon is much friendlier to container use cases.
Trond fixed nfsd's handling of user credentials in user namespaces. He
also contributed patches that allow containers to support different
sets of NFS protocol versions.
The only remaining container bug I'm aware of is that the NFS reply
cache is shared between all containers. If anyone's aware of other
gaps in our container support, let me know.
The rest of this is miscellaneous bugfixes"

Finding endpoints of an IPC channel is one of essential task to
understand how a user program works. Procfs and netlink socket provide
enough hints to find endpoints for IPC channels like pipes, unix
sockets, and pseudo terminals. However, there is no simple way to find
endpoints for an eventfd file from userland. An inode number doesn't
hint. Unlike pipe, all eventfd files share the same inode object.
To provide the way to find endpoints of an eventfd file, this patch adds
"eventfd-id" field to /proc/PID/fdinfo of eventfd as identifier.
Integers managed by an IDA are used as ids.
A tool like lsof can utilize the information to print endpoints.

fsync() needs to make sure the data & meta-data of file are persistent
after the return of fsync(), even when a power-failure occurs later. In
the case of fat-fs, the FAT belongs to the meta-data of file, so we need
to issue a flush after the writeback of FAT instead before.
Also bail out early when any stage of fsync fails.

csum_partial() gives different results for little-endian and big-endian
hosts. This causes images created on little-endian hosts and mounted on

Sparse gives a warning as csum_partial returns a restricted integer type
__wsum_t and xattr_hash expects __u32. This warning acts as a reminder
for this bug and should not be suppressed.

Commmit eab09532d400 ("binfmt_elf: use ELF_ET_DYN_BASE only for PIE"),
made changes in the rare case when the ELF loader was directly invoked
(e.g to set a non-inheritable LD_LIBRARY_PATH, testing new versions of
the loader), by moving into the mmap region to avoid both ET_EXEC and
PIE binaries. This had the effect of also moving the brk region into
mmap, which could lead to the stack and brk being arbitrarily close to
each other. An unlucky process wouldn't get its requested stack size
and stack allocations could end up scribbling on the heap.
This is illustrated here. In the case of using the loader directly, brk
(so helpfully identified as "[heap]") is allocated with the _loader_ not
the binary. For example, with ASLR entirely disabled, you can see this
more clearly:
$ /bin/cat /proc/self/maps

7ffffffde000-7ffffffff000 rw-p 00000000 ... [stack]
The solution is to move brk out of mmap and into ELF_ET_DYN_BASE since
nothing is there in the direct loader case (and ET_EXEC is still far
away at 0x400000). Anything that ran before should still work (i.e.
the ultimately-launched binary already had the brk very far from its
text, so this should be no different from a COMPAT_BRK standpoint). The
only risk I see here is that if someone started to suddenly depend on
the entire memory space lower than the mmap region being available when
launching binaries via a direct loader execs which seems highly
unlikely, I'd hope: this would mean a binary would _not_ work when
exec()ed normally.
(Note that this is only done under CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ELF_RANDOMIZATION
when randomization is turned on.)

Get "current_pt_regs" pointer right before usage.
Space savings on x86_64:
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-180 (-180)
Function old new delta
load_elf_binary 5806 5626 -180 !!!
Looks like the compiler doesn't know that "current_pt_regs" is stable
pointer (because it doesn't know ->stack isn't) even though it knows
that "current" is stable pointer. So it saves it in the very beginning
and then tries to carry it through a lot of code.
Here is what happens here:
load_elf_binary()
...
mov rax,QWORD PTR gs:0x14c00
mov r13,QWORD PTR [rax+0x18] r13 = current->stack
call kmem_cache_alloc # first kmalloc
[980 bytes later!]
# let's spill that sucker because we need a register
# for "load_bias" calculations at
#
# if (interpreter) {
# load_bias = ELF_ET_DYN_BASE;
# if (current->flags & PF_RANDOMIZE)
# load_bias += arch_mmap_rnd();
# elf_flags |= elf_fixed;
# }
mov QWORD PTR [rsp+0x68],r13
If this is not _the_ root cause it is still eeeeh.
After the patch things become much simpler:
mov rax, QWORD PTR gs:0x14c00 # current
mov rdx, QWORD PTR [rax+0x18] # current->stack
movq [rdx+0x3fb8], 0 # fill pt_regs
...
call finalize_exec

clear_tsk_latency_tracing
The name clear_all_latency_tracing is misleading, in fact which only
clear per task's latency_record[], and we do have another function named
clear_global_latency_tracing which clear the global latency_record[]
buffer.

The test case we have is rightfully failing with the current kernel:
io_uring_setup(1, 0x7ffe2cafebe0), flags: IORING_SETUP_SQPOLL|IORING_SETUP_SQ_AFF, resv: 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x00000000, sq_thread_cpu: 4
expected -1, got 3
This is in a vm, and CPU3 is the last valid one, hence asking for 4
should fail the setup with -EINVAL, not succeed. The problem is that
we're using array_index_nospec() with nr_cpu_ids as the index, hence we
wrap and end up using CPU0 instead of CPU4. This makes the setup
succeed where it should be failing.
We don't need to use array_index_nospec() as we're not indexing any
array with this. Instead just compare with nr_cpu_ids directly. This
is fine as we're checking with cpu_online() afterwards.

assumes that the MID callback should not take srv_mutex, this may not always
be true. SMB Direct requires the MID callback completed before calling
transport so all pending memory registration can be freed. So restore the
original calling sequence so TCP transport will use the same code, but moving

Continuing discussion about 58b6e5e8f1ad ("hugetlbfs: fix memory leak for
resv_map") brought up the issue that inode->i_mapping may not point to the
address space embedded within the inode at inode eviction time. The
hugetlbfs truncate routine handles this by explicitly using inode->i_data.
However, code cleaning up the resv_map will still use the address space
pointed to by inode->i_mapping. Luckily, private_data is NULL for address
spaces in all such cases today but, there is no guarantee this will
continue.
Change all hugetlbfs code getting a resv_map pointer to explicitly get it
from the address space embedded within the inode. In addition, add more
comments in the code to indicate why this is being done.

23d0127096cb ("fs/sync.c: make sync_file_range(2) use WB_SYNC_NONE
writeback") claims that sync_file_range(2) syscall was "created for
userspace to be able to issue background writeout and so waiting for
in-flight IO is undesirable there" and changes the writeback (back) to
WB_SYNC_NONE.
This claim is only partially true. It is true for users that use the flag
SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE by itself, as does PostgreSQL, the user that was the
reason for changing to WB_SYNC_NONE writeback.
However, that claim is not true for users that use that flag combination
SYNC_FILE_RANGE_{WAIT_BEFORE|WRITE|_WAIT_AFTER}. Those users explicitly
requested to wait for in-flight IO as well as to writeback of dirty pages.
Re-brand that flag combination as SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE_AND_WAIT and use
WB_SYNC_ALL writeback to perform the full range sync request.

CPU page table update can happens for many reasons, not only as a result
of a syscall (munmap(), mprotect(), mremap(), madvise(), ...) but also as
a result of kernel activities (memory compression, reclaim, migration,
...).
Users of mmu notifier API track changes to the CPU page table and take
specific action for them. While current API only provide range of virtual
address affected by the change, not why the changes is happening.
This patchset do the initial mechanical convertion of all the places that
calls mmu_notifier_range_init to also provide the default MMU_NOTIFY_UNMAP
event as well as the vma if it is know (most invalidation happens against
a given vma). Passing down the vma allows the users of mmu notifier to
inspect the new vma page protection.
The MMU_NOTIFY_UNMAP is always the safe default as users of mmu notifier
should assume that every for the range is going away when that event
happens. A latter patch do convert mm call path to use a more appropriate
events for each call.
This is done as 2 patches so that no call site is forgotten especialy

hugetlb uses a fault mutex hash table to prevent page faults of the
same pages concurrently. The key for shared and private mappings is
different. Shared keys off address_space and file index. Private keys
off mm and virtual address. Consider a private mappings of a populated
hugetlbfs file. A fault will map the page from the file and if needed
do a COW to map a writable page.
Hugetlbfs hole punch uses the fault mutex to prevent mappings of file
pages. It uses the address_space file index key. However, private
mappings will use a different key and could race with this code to map
the file page. This causes problems (BUG) for the page cache remove
code as it expects the page to be unmapped. A sample stack is:
page dumped because: VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page_mapped(page))
kernel BUG at mm/filemap.c:169!

There seems to be another potential COW issue/race with this approach
of different private and shared keys as noted in commit 8382d914ebf7
("mm, hugetlb: improve page-fault scalability").
Since every hugetlb mapping (even anon and private) is actually a file
mapping, just use the address_space index key for all mappings. This
results in potentially more hash collisions. However, this should not
be the common case.

MADV_DONTNEED is handled with mmap_sem taken in read mode. We call
page_mkclean without holding mmap_sem.
MADV_DONTNEED implies that pages in the region are unmapped and subsequent
access to the pages in that range is handled as a new page fault. This
implies that if we don't have parallel access to the region when
MADV_DONTNEED is run we expect those range to be unallocated.
w.r.t page_mkclean() we need to make sure that we don't break the
MADV_DONTNEED semantics. MADV_DONTNEED check for pmd_none without holding
pmd_lock. This implies we skip the pmd if we temporarily mark pmd none.
Avoid doing that while marking the page clean.
Keep the sequence same for dax too even though we don't support
MADV_DONTNEED for dax mapping
The bug was noticed by code review and I didn't observe any failures w.r.t
test run. This is similar to

To facilitate additional options to get_user_pages_fast() change the
singular write parameter to be gup_flags.
This patch does not change any functionality. New functionality will
follow in subsequent patches.
Some of the get_user_pages_fast() call sites were unchanged because they
already passed FOLL_WRITE or 0 for the write parameter.
NOTE: It was suggested to change the ordering of the get_user_pages_fast()
arguments to ensure that callers were converted. This breaks the current
GUP call site convention of having the returned pages be the final
parameter. So the suggestion was rejected.

Pach series "Add FOLL_LONGTERM to GUP fast and use it".
HFI1, qib, and mthca, use get_user_pages_fast() due to its performance
advantages. These pages can be held for a significant time. But
get_user_pages_fast() does not protect against mapping FS DAX pages.
Introduce FOLL_LONGTERM and use this flag in get_user_pages_fast() which
retains the performance while also adding the FS DAX checks. XDP has also
shown interest in using this functionality.[1]
In addition we change get_user_pages() to use the new FOLL_LONGTERM flag
and remove the specialized get_user_pages_longterm call.
[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/3/19/939
"longterm" is a relative thing and at this point is probably a misnomer.
This is really flagging a pin which is going to be given to hardware and
can't move. I've thought of a couple of alternative names but I think we
have to settle on if we are going to use FL_LAYOUT or something else to
solve the "longterm" problem. Then I think we can change the flag to a
better name.
Secondly, it depends on how often you are registering memory. I have
spoken with some RDMA users who consider MR in the performance path...
For the overall application performance. I don't have the numbers as the
tests for HFI1 were done a long time ago. But there was a significant
advantage. Some of which is probably due to the fact that you don't have
to hold mmap_sem.
Finally, architecturally I think it would be good for everyone to use
*_fast. There are patches submitted to the RDMA list which would allow
the use of *_fast (they reworking the use of mmap_sem) and as soon as they
are accepted I'll submit a patch to convert the RDMA core as well. Also
to this point others are looking to use *_fast.
As an aside, Jasons pointed out in my previous submission that *_fast and
*_unlocked look very much the same. I agree and I think further cleanup
will be coming. But I'm focused on getting the final solution for DAX at
the moment.
This patch (of 7):
This patch starts a series which aims to support FOLL_LONGTERM in
get_user_pages_fast(). Some callers who would like to do a longterm (user
controlled pin) of pages with the fast variant of GUP for performance
purposes.
Rather than have a separate get_user_pages_longterm() call, introduce
FOLL_LONGTERM and change the longterm callers to use it.
This patch does not change any functionality. In the short term
"longterm" or user controlled pins are unsafe for Filesystems and FS DAX
in particular has been blocked. However, callers of get_user_pages_fast()
were not "protected".
FOLL_LONGTERM can _only_ be supported with get_user_pages[_fast]() as it
requires vmas to determine if DAX is in use.
NOTE: In merging with the CMA changes we opt to change the
get_user_pages() call in check_and_migrate_cma_pages() to a call of
__get_user_pages_locked() on the newly migrated pages. This makes the
code read better in that we are calling __get_user_pages_locked() on the
pages before and after a potential migration.
As a side affect some of the interfaces are cleaned up but this is not the
primary purpose of the series.
In review[1] it was asked:
<quote>
> This I don't get - if you do lock down long term mappings performance
> of the actual get_user_pages call shouldn't matter to start with.

A couple of points.

Userfaultfd can be misued to make it easier to exploit existing
use-after-free (and similar) bugs that might otherwise only make a
short window or race condition available. By using userfaultfd to
stall a kernel thread, a malicious program can keep some state that it
wrote, stable for an extended period, which it can then access using an
existing exploit. While it doesn't cause the exploit itself, and while
it's not the only thing that can stall a kernel thread when accessing a
memory location, it's one of the few that never needs privilege.
We can add a flag, allowing userfaultfd to be restricted, so that in
general it won't be useable by arbitrary user programs, but in
environments that require userfaultfd it can be turned back on.
Add a global sysctl knob "vm.unprivileged_userfaultfd" to control
whether userfaultfd is allowed by unprivileged users. When this is
set to zero, only privileged users (root user, or users with the
CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability) will be able to use the userfaultfd
syscalls.
Andrea said:
: The only difference between the bpf sysctl and the userfaultfd sysctl
: this way is that the bpf sysctl adds the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability
: requirement, while userfaultfd adds the CAP_SYS_PTRACE requirement,
: because the userfaultfd monitor is more likely to need CAP_SYS_PTRACE
: already if it's doing other kind of tracking on processes runtime, in
: addition of userfaultfd. In other words both syscalls works only for
: root, when the two sysctl are opt-in set to 1.
