* 'pm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/suspend-2.6:
PM / Hibernate: Fix memory corruption related to swap
PM / Hibernate: Use async I/O when reading compressed hibernation image
|
|
There is a problem that swap pages allocated before the creation of
a hibernation image can be released and used for storing the contents
of different memory pages while the image is being saved. Since the
kernel stored in the image doesn't know of that, it causes memory
corruption to occur after resume from hibernation, especially on
systems with relatively small RAM that need to swap often.
This issue can be addressed by keeping the GFP_IOFS bits clear
in gfp_allowed_mask during the entire hibernation, including the
saving of the image, until the system is finally turned off or
the hibernation is aborted. Unfortunately, for this purpose
it's necessary to rework the way in which the hibernate and
suspend code manipulates gfp_allowed_mask.
This change is based on an earlier patch from Hugh Dickins.

This is a fix for reading LZO compressed image using async I/O.
Essentially, instead of having just one page into which we keep
reading blocks from swap, we allocate enough of them to cover the
largest compressed size and then let block I/O pick them all up. Once
we have them all (and here we wait), we decompress them, as usual.
Obviously, the very first block we still pick up synchronously,
because we need to know the size of the lot before we pick up the
rest.
Also fixed the copyright line, which I've forgotten before.

Because it caused a chroot ttyname regression in 2.6.36.
As of 2.6.36 ttyname does not work in a chroot. It has already been
reported that screen breaks, and for me this breaks an automated
distribution testsuite, that I need to preserve the ability to run the
existing binaries on for several more years. glibc 2.11.3 which has a
fix for this is not an option.
The root cause of this breakage is:

HP-UX confirmed this. The current led_wq fills the LCD with black
characters each time it runs.
The patch prevents the led_wq workqueue and its proc entry to be

It also increase min_cmd_delay as currently, one character out of two
is lost when a string is sent to the LCD.

The generic conversion eliminates the spurious no_ack and no_end
routines, converts all the cascaded handlers to handle_simple_irq() and
makes iosapic use a modified handle_percpu_irq() to become the same as
the CPU irq's. This isn't an essential change, but it eliminates the
mask/unmask overhead of handle_level_irq().

The essential problem we're currently having is that dino (and gsc) is a
cascaded CPU interrupt. Under the old __do_IRQ() handler, our CPU
interrupts basically did an ack followed by an end. In the new scheme,
we replaced them with level handlers which do a mask, an ack and then an
unmask (but no end). Instead, with the renaming of end to eoi, we
actually want to call the percpu flow handlers, because they actually
have all the characteristics we want.
This patch does the conversion and gets my C360 booting again.

My new shiny code for corrupted PEB detection has NOR specific bug.
We tread PEB as corrupted and preserve it, if
1. EC header is OK.
2. VID header is corrupted.
3. data area is not "all 0xFFs"
In case of NOR we have 'nor_erase_prepare()' quirk, which invalidates
the headers before erasing the PEB. And we invalidate first the VID
header, and then the EC header. So if a power cut happens after we have
invalidated the VID header, but before we have invalidated the EC
header, we end up with a PEB which satisfies the above 3 conditions,
and the scanning code will treat it as corrupted, and will print
scary warnings, wrongly.
This patch fixes the issue by firt invalidating the EC header, then
invalidating the VID header. In case of power cut inbetween, we still
just lose the EC header, and UBI can deal with this situation gracefully.

If a user manages to trigger an oops with fs set to KERNEL_DS, fs is not
otherwise reset before do_exit(). do_exit may later (via mm_release in
fork.c) do a put_user to a user-controlled address, potentially allowing
a user to leverage an oops into a controlled write into kernel memory.
This is only triggerable in the presence of another bug, but this
potentially turns a lot of DoS bugs into privilege escalations, so it's
worth fixing. I have proof-of-concept code which uses this bug along
with CVE-2010-3849 to write a zero to an arbitrary kernel address, so
I've tested that this is not theoretical.
A more logical place to put this fix might be when we know an oops has
occurred, before we call do_exit(), but that would involve changing
every architecture, in multiple places.
Let's just stick it in do_exit instead.

following new lockdep warning.

but task is already holding lock:
(ksm_thread_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff8113a3aa>]
ksm_memory_callback+0x3a/0xc0
which lock already depends on the new lock.

But it's a false positive. Both memory_chain.rwsem and ksm_thread_mutex
have an outer lock (mem_hotplug_mutex). So they cannot deadlock.
Thus, This patch annotate ksm_thread_mutex is not deadlock source.

Presently hwpoison is using lock_system_sleep() to prevent a race with
memory hotplug. However lock_system_sleep() is a no-op if
CONFIG_HIBERNATION=n. Therefore we need a new lock.

On stock 2.6.37-rc4, running:
# mount lilith:/export /mnt/lilith
# find /mnt/lilith/ -type f -print0 | xargs -0 file
crashes the machine fairly quickly under Xen. Often it results in oops
messages, but the couple of times I tried just now, it just hung quietly
and made Xen print some rude messages:
(XEN) mm.c:2389:d80 Bad type (saw 7400000000000001 != exp
3000000000000000) for mfn 1d7058 (pfn 18fa7)
(XEN) mm.c:964:d80 Attempt to create linear p.t. with write perms
(XEN) mm.c:2389:d80 Bad type (saw 7400000000000010 != exp
1000000000000000) for mfn 1d2e04 (pfn 1d1fb)
(XEN) mm.c:2965:d80 Error while pinning mfn 1d2e04
Which means the domain tried to map a pagetable page RW, which would
allow it to map arbitrary memory, so Xen stopped it. This is because
vm_unmap_ram() left some pages mapped in the vmalloc area after NFS had
finished with them, and those pages got recycled as pagetable pages
while still having these RW aliases.
Removing those mappings immediately removes the Xen-visible aliases, and
so it has no problem with those pages being reused as pagetable pages.
Deferring the TLB flush doesn't upset Xen because it can flush the TLB
itself as needed to maintain its invariants.
When unmapping a region in the vmalloc space, clear the ptes
immediately. There's no point in deferring this because there's no
amortization benefit.
The TLBs are left dirty, and they are flushed lazily to amortize the
cost of the IPIs.
This specific motivation for this patch is an oops-causing regression
since 2.6.36 when using NFS under Xen, triggered by the NFS client's use
of vm_map_ram() introduced in 56e4ebf877b60 ("NFS: readdir with vmapped
pages") . XFS also uses vm_map_ram() and could cause similar problems.

The AMD Geode CS5536 Companion Device Silicon Revision B1 Specification
Update mentions the follow as issue #36:
"Atomic write transactions to the atomic GPIO High Bank Feature Bit
registers should only affect the bits selected [...]"
"after Suspend, an atomic write transaction [...] will clear all
non-selected bits of the accessed register."
In other words, writing to the high bank for a single GPIO bit will
clear every other GPIO bit (but only sometimes after a suspend).
The workaround described is obvious and simple; do a read-modify-write.
This patch does that, and documents why we're doing it.

reiserfs_acl_chmod() can be called by reiserfs_set_attr() and then take
the reiserfs lock a second time. Thereafter it may call journal_begin()
that definitely requires the lock not to be nested in order to release
it before taking the journal mutex because the reiserfs lock depends on
the journal mutex already.
So, aviod nesting the lock in reiserfs_acl_chmod().

It's not useful to build LED triggers when there's no LEDs that can be
triggered by them. Therefore, fix up the dependencies so that this
cannot happen, and fix a few users that select triggers to depend on
LEDS_CLASS as well (there is also one user that also selects LEDS_CLASS,
which is OK).

numa_* fields, and users will read strange values.
This is the right order. Before patch, nr_dirty_background_threshold
will read as 0 (the value from numa_miss).

Have hugetlb_fault() call unlock_page(page) only if it had previously
called lock_page(page).
Setting CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y and then running the libhugetlbfs test suite,
resulted in the tripping of VM_BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page)) in
unlock_page() having been called by hugetlb_fault() when page ==
pagecache_page. This patch remedied the problem.
