Now that all users of the coreboot_table_find function have been updated
to hang off the coreboot table bus instead, remove it.

Remove the ad-hoc coreboot table search. Now the driver will only be
probed when the necessary coreboot table entry has already been found.
Furthermore, since the coreboot bus takes care of creating the device, a
separate platform device is no longer needed.

This simplifies creating device drivers for hardware or information
described in the coreboot table. It also avoids needing to search
through the table every time a driver is loaded.

Remove dependencies on HAS_DMA where a Kconfig symbol depends on another
symbol that implies HAS_DMA, and, optionally, on "|| COMPILE_TEST".
In most cases this other symbol is an architecture or platform specific
symbol, or PCI.
Generic symbols and drivers without platform dependencies keep their
dependencies on HAS_DMA, to prevent compiling subsystems or drivers that
cannot work anyway.
This simplifies the dependencies, and allows to improve compile-testing.

kim_probe() is never called in atomic context.
This function is only set as ".probe" in struct platform_driver.
Despite never getting called from atomic context,
kim_probe() calls kzalloc() with GFP_ATOMIC,
which does not sleep for allocation.
GFP_ATOMIC is not necessary and can be replaced with GFP_KERNEL,
which can sleep and improve the possibility of sucessful allocation.
This is found by a static analysis tool named DCNS written by myself.
And I also manually check it.

There's an ongoing effort to remove VLAs[1] from the kernel to eventually
turn on -Wvla. The single VLA can either take a value of 2 or 4 so switch

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler
in struct vm_operations_struct. For now, this is
just documenting that the function returns a VM_
FAULT value rather than an errno. Once all inst
ances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a di
stinct type.

previously cxl_mmap_fault returns VM_FAULT_NOPAGE as

It doesn't make any difference to runtime but I've switched these two
checks to make my static checker happy.
The problem is that "buffer->data_size" is user controlled and if it's
less than "sizeo(*hdr)" then that means "offset" can be more than
"buffer->data_size". It's just cleaner to check it in the other order.

f2fs specifies the __GFP_ZERO flag for allocating some of its pages.
Unfortunately, the page cache also uses the mapping's GFP flags for
allocating radix tree nodes. It always masked off the __GFP_HIGHMEM
flag, and masks off __GFP_ZERO in some paths, but not all. That causes
radix tree nodes to be allocated with a NULL list_head, which causes
backtraces like:
__list_del_entry+0x30/0xd0
list_lru_del+0xac/0x1ac
page_cache_tree_insert+0xd8/0x110
The __GFP_DMA and __GFP_DMA32 flags would also be able to sneak through
if they are ever used. Fix them all by using GFP_RECLAIM_MASK at the
innermost location, and remove it from earlier in the callchain.

early_iounmap(ffffffffff200180, 00000118) [0] size not consistent 00000120
The problem is x86 kexec_file_load adds extra alignment to the efi

efi_map_sz = efi_get_runtime_map_size();
efi_map_sz = ALIGN(efi_map_sz, 16);
And __efi_memmap_init maps with the size including the alignment bytes
but efi_memmap_unmap use nr_maps * desc_size which does not include the
extra bytes.
The alignment in kexec code is only needed for the kexec buffer internal
use Actually kexec should pass exact size of the efi memmap to 2nd

Commit 95846ecf9dac ("pid: replace pid bitmap implementation with IDR
API") changed last field of /proc/loadavg (last pid allocated) to be off
by one:
# unshare -p -f --mount-proc cat /proc/loadavg
0.00 0.00 0.00 1/60 2 <===
It should be 1 after first fork into pid namespace.
This is formally a regression but given how useless this field is I
don't think anyone is affected.
Bug was found by /proc testsuite!

if (mm) {
if (get_dumpable(mm) != SUID_DUMP_USER) {

Check for ->mm is buggy -- kernel thread might be borrowing mm

The autofs file system mkdir inode operation blindly sets the created
directory mode to S_IFDIR | 0555, ingoring the passed in mode, which can
cause selinux dac_override denials.
But the function also checks if the caller is the daemon (as no-one else
should be able to do anything here) so there's no point in not honouring
the passed in mode, allowing the daemon to set appropriate mode when
required.

KASAN uses the __no_sanitize_address macro to disable instrumentation of

causes false positives when clang is used.

Some of the mport_dma_req structure members were initialized late
inside the do_dma_request() function, just before submitting the
request to the dma engine. But we have some error branches before
that. In case of such an error, the code would return on the error
path and trigger the calling of dma_req_free() with a req structure
which is not completely initialized. This causes a NULL pointer
dereference in dma_req_free().
This patch fixes these error branches by making sure that all
necessary mport_dma_req structure members are initialized in
rio_dma_transfer() immediately after the request structure gets
allocated.

My testing for the latest kernel supporting thp migration showed an
infinite loop in offlining the memory block that is filled with shmem
thps. We can get out of the loop with a signal, but kernel should return
with failure in this case.
What happens in the loop is that scan_movable_pages() repeats returning
the same pfn without any progress. That's because page migration always
fails for shmem thps.
In memory offline code, memory blocks containing unmovable pages should be
prevented from being offline targets by has_unmovable_pages() inside
start_isolate_page_range(). So it's possible to change migratability for
non-anonymous thps to avoid the issue, but it introduces more complex and
thp-specific handling in migration code, so it might not good.
So this patch is suggesting to fix the issue by enabling thp migration for
shmem thp. Both of anon/shmem thp are migratable so we don't need
precheck about the type of thps.

lock_page_memcg()/unlock_page_memcg() use spin_lock_irqsave/restore() if
the page's memcg is undergoing move accounting, which occurs when a
process leaves its memcg for a new one that has
memory.move_charge_at_immigrate set.
unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin,end() use spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq() if
the given inode is switching writeback domains. Switches occur when
enough writes are issued from a new domain.
This existing pattern is thus suspicious:
lock_page_memcg(page);
unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin(inode, &locked);
...
unlocked_inode_to_wb_end(inode, locked);
unlock_page_memcg(page);
If both inode switch and process memcg migration are both in-flight then
unlocked_inode_to_wb_end() will unconditionally enable interrupts while
still holding the lock_page_memcg() irq spinlock. This suggests the
possibility of deadlock if an interrupt occurs before unlock_page_memcg().
truncate
__cancel_dirty_page
lock_page_memcg
unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin
unlocked_inode_to_wb_end
<interrupts mistakenly enabled>
<interrupt>
end_page_writeback
test_clear_page_writeback
lock_page_memcg
<deadlock>
unlock_page_memcg
Due to configuration limitations this deadlock is not currently possible
because we don't mix cgroup writeback (a cgroupv2 feature) and
memory.move_charge_at_immigrate (a cgroupv1 feature).
If the kernel is hacked to always claim inode switching and memcg
moving_account, then this script triggers lockup in less than a minute:
cd /mnt/cgroup/memory
mkdir a b
echo 1 > a/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
echo 1 > b/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
(
echo $BASHPID > a/cgroup.procs
while true; do
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/big bs=1M count=256
done
) &
while true; do
sync
done &
sleep 1h &
SLEEP=$!
while true; do
echo $SLEEP > a/cgroup.procs
echo $SLEEP > b/cgroup.procs
done
The deadlock does not seem possible, so it's debatable if there's any
reason to modify the kernel. I suggest we should to prevent future
surprises. And Wang Long said "this deadlock occurs three times in our
environment", so there's more reason to apply this, even to stable.
Stable 4.4 has minor conflicts applying this patch. For a clean 4.4 patch

The swap offset reported by /proc/<pid>/pagemap may be not correct for
PMD migration entries. If addr passed into pagemap_pmd_range() isn't
aligned with PMD start address, the swap offset reported doesn't
reflect this. And in the loop to report information of each sub-page,
the swap offset isn't increased accordingly as that for PFN.
This may happen after opening /proc/<pid>/pagemap and seeking to a page
whose address doesn't align with a PMD start address. I have verified
this with a simple test program.
BTW: migration swap entries have PFN information, do we need to restrict
whether to show them?

Li Wang has reported that LTP move_pages04 test fails with the current
tree:
LTP move_pages04:
TFAIL : move_pages04.c:143: status[1] is EPERM, expected EFAULT
The test allocates an array of two pages, one is present while the other
is not (resp. backed by zero page) and it expects EFAULT for the second
page as the man page suggests. We are reporting EPERM which doesn't make
any sense and this is a result of a bug from cf5f16b23ec9 ("mm: unclutter
THP migration").
do_pages_move tries to handle as many pages in one batch as possible so we
queue all pages with the same node target together and that corresponds to
[start, i] range which is then used to update status array.
add_page_for_migration will correctly notice the zero (resp. !present)
page and returns with EFAULT which gets written to the status. But if
this is the last page in the array we do not update start and so the last
store_status after the loop will overwrite the range of the last batch
with NUMA_NO_NODE (which corresponds to EPERM).
Fix this by simply bailing out from the last flush if the pagelist is
empty as there is clearly nothing more to do.

One of the classes of kernel stack content leaks[1] is exposing the
contents of prior heap or stack contents when a new process stack is
allocated. Normally, those stacks are not zeroed, and the old contents
remain in place. In the face of stack content exposure flaws, those
contents can leak to userspace.
Fixing this will make the kernel no longer vulnerable to these flaws, as
the stack will be wiped each time a stack is assigned to a new process.
There's not a meaningful change in runtime performance; it almost looks
like it provides a benefit.
Performing back-to-back kernel builds before:
Run times: 157.86 157.09 158.90 160.94 160.80

Run times: 159.31 157.34 156.71 158.15 160.81

Instead of making this a build or runtime config, Andy Lutomirski
recommended this just be enabled by default.

Cycles: 213868945060 213119275204 211820169456 224426673259 225489986348
Mean: 217745009865.40
Std Dev: 5935559279.99
It continues to look like it's faster, though the deviation is rather
wide, but I'm not sure what I could do that would be less noisy. I'm
open to ideas!
