[PATCH v4 07/11] tty: 8250: Fix up PX-803/PX-857

by Cameron Williams

The PX-803/PX-857 are variants of each other, add a note. Additionally fix up the port counts for the card (2, not 1). Fixes: ef5a03a26c87 ("tty: 8250: Add support for Brainboxes PX cards.") Cc: stable(a)vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Cameron Williams <cang1(a)live.co.uk> --- For stable: This patch is only applicable to 5.15 LTS and up, other LTS kernels dont have PX card support. v3 - v4: Split patch v3 part 5 into multiple Fixes patches and an Additions patch. Add Fixes: and Cc: tag. v2 - v3: Alter commit message a little to make the additions/fixes cleaner Re-submit patch series using git send-email to make threading work. v1 - v2: This is a resubmission series for the patch series below. That series was lots of changes sent to lots of maintainers, this series is just for the tty/serial/8250 subsystem.

[PATCH v4 02/11] tty: 8250: Remove UC-257 and UC-431

by Cameron Williams

The UC-257 is a serial + LPT card, so remove it from this driver. A patch has been submitted to add it to parport_serial instead. Additionaly, the UC-431 does not use this card ID, only the UC-420 does. The 431 is a 3-port card and there is no generic 3-port configuration available, so remove reference to it from this driver.

The quilt patch titled Subject: x86/mm: drop 4MB restriction on minimal NUMA node size has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was x86-mm-drop-4mb-restriction-on-minimal-numa-node-size.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Mike Rapoport (IBM)" <rppt(a)kernel.org> Subject: x86/mm: drop 4MB restriction on minimal NUMA node size Date: Tue, 17 Oct 2023 09:22:15 +0300 Qi Zheng reports crashes in a production environment and provides a simplified example as a reproducer: For example, if we use qemu to start a two NUMA node kernel, one of the nodes has 2M memory (less than NODE_MIN_SIZE), and the other node has 2G, then we will encounter the following panic: [ 0.149844] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 [ 0.150783] #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode [ 0.151488] #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page <...> [ 0.156056] RIP: 0010:_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x22/0x40 <...> [ 0.169781] Call Trace: [ 0.170159] <TASK> [ 0.170448] deactivate_slab+0x187/0x3c0 [ 0.171031] ? bootstrap+0x1b/0x10e [ 0.171559] ? preempt_count_sub+0x9/0xa0 [ 0.172145] ? kmem_cache_alloc+0x12c/0x440 [ 0.172735] ? bootstrap+0x1b/0x10e [ 0.173236] bootstrap+0x6b/0x10e [ 0.173720] kmem_cache_init+0x10a/0x188 [ 0.174240] start_kernel+0x415/0x6ac [ 0.174738] secondary_startup_64_no_verify+0xe0/0xeb [ 0.175417] </TASK> [ 0.175713] Modules linked in: [ 0.176117] CR2: 0000000000000000 The crashes happen because of inconsistency between nodemask that has nodes with less than 4MB as memoryless and the actual memory fed into core mm. The commit 9391a3f9c7f1 ("[PATCH] x86_64: Clear more state when ignoring empty node in SRAT parsing") that introduced minimal size of a NUMA node does not explain why a node size cannot be less than 4MB and what boot failures this restriction might fix. Since then a lot has changed and core mm won't confuse badly about small node sizes. Drop the limitation for the minimal node size.

[stable] Documentation: sysctl: align cells in second content column

by Ben Hutchings

Several stable branches (4.14 to 5.15 inclusive) belatedly got backports of commit 1202cdd665315c ("Remove DECnet support from kernel"). This causes a minor regression for the documentation build, which was fixed upstream by: commit 1faa34672f8a17a3e155e74bde9648564e9480d6 Author: Bagas Sanjaya <bagasdotme(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed Aug 24 10:58:04 2022 +0700 Documentation: sysctl: align cells in second content column Please apply this to the affected branches.

Backport commit 786dee864804 ("mm/memory_hotplug: rate limit page migration warnings")

by pjy＠amazon.com

Please backport commit 786dee864804 ("mm/memory_hotplug: ratelimit page migration warnings") to 5.10 stable branch. Commit message: """ When offlining memory the system can attempt to migrate a lot of pages, if there are problems with migration this can flood the logs. Printing all the data hogs the CPU and cause some RT threads to run for a long time, which may have some bad consequences. Rate limit the page migration warnings in order to avoid this. """ We are sometimes seeing RCU stalls while offlining memory with the 5.10 kernel due to the printing of these messages. Applying this patch solves the problem by ratelimiting the prints. Thanks, Puranjay

Re: [PATCH] attr: block mode changes of symlinks

by Jesse Hathaway

> If this holds up without regressions than all LTSes. That's what Amir > and Leah did for some other work. I can add that to the comment for > clarity. Unfortunately, this has not held up in LTSes without causing regressions, specifically in crun: Crun issue and patch 1. https://github.com/containers/crun/issues/1308 2. https://github.com/containers/crun/pull/1309 Debian bug report 1. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1053821 I think it should be reverted in LTSes and possibly in upstream. Yours kindly, Jesse Hathaway P.S. apologies for not having the correct threading headers. I am not on the list.
