Biederman" <ebiederm(a)xmission.com> Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2020 11:11:06 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] posix-cpu-timers: Store a reference to a pid not a task posix cpu timers do not handle the death of a process well. This is most clearly seen when a multi-threaded process calls exec from a thread that is not the leader of the thread group. The posix cpu timer code continues to pin the old thread group leader and is unable to find the siglock from there. This results in posix_cpu_timer_del being unable to delete a timer, posix_cpu_timer_set being unable to set a timer. Further to compensate for the problems in posix_cpu_timer_del on a multi-threaded exec all timers that point at the multi-threaded task are stopped. The code for the timers fundamentally needs to check if the target process/thread is alive. This needs an extra level of indirection. This level of indirection is already available in struct pid. So replace cpu.task with cpu.pid to get the needed extra layer of indirection. In addition to handling things more cleanly this reduces the amount of memory a timer can pin when a process exits and then is reaped from a task_struct to the vastly smaller struct pid.

If the switch fails, the indirection table is new, but the channels are old, which is wrong. Fix it by using the preactivate hook of mlx5e_safe_switch_channels to update the indirection table at the stage when nothing can fail anymore. As the code that updates the indirection table is now encapsulated into a new function, use that function in the attach flow when the driver has to reduce the number of channels, and prepare the code for the next commit.

OK, thanks! Greg, I'm not sure why commit 65a691f5f8f0 from the mainline ended up in 5.6.5. It has not been marked for -stable or otherwise requested to be included AFAICS. Also it depends on other mainline commits that have not been included into 5.6.5. Can you please drop it?

[PATCH] mm, memcg: fix inconsistent oom event behavior

by Yafang Shao

A recent commit 9852ae3fe529 ("mm, memcg: consider subtrees in memory.events") changes the behavior of memcg events, which will consider subtrees in memory.events. But oom_kill event is a special one as it is used in both cgroup1 and cgroup2. In cgroup1, it is displayed in memory.oom_control. The file memory.oom_control is in both root memcg and non root memcg, that is different with memory.event as it only in non-root memcg. That commit is okay for cgroup2, but it is not okay for cgroup1 as it will cause inconsistent behavior between root memcg and non-root memcg. Let's recover the original behavior for cgroup1.
