Subject: slab: alien caches must not be initialized if the allocation of the alien cache failed
Callers of __alloc_alien() check for NULL. We must do the same check in
__alloc_alien_cache to avoid NULL pointer dereferences on allocation
failures.

Subject: fork, memcg: fix cached_stacks case
5eed6f1dff87 ("fork,memcg: fix crash in free_thread_stack on memcg charge
fail") fixes a crash caused due to failed memcg charge of the kernel
stack. However the fix misses the cached_stacks case which this patch
fixes. So, the same crash can happen if the memcg charge of a cached
stack is failed.

Recently, Alakesh Haloi reported the following issue [1] with stable/4.14:
"""
An iptable rule like the following on a multicore systems will result in
accepting more connections than set in the rule.
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --syn --dport 7777 -m connlimit \
--connlimit-above 2000 --connlimit-mask 0 -j DROP
"""
And proposed a fix that is not in Linus's tree. The discussion went on to
confirm whether the issue was still reproducible with mainline/nf.git tip,
and to either identify the upstream fix or re-submit the non-upstream fix.
Alakesh eventually was able to test with upstream, and reported that issue
was still reproducible [2].
On that, our findinds diverge, at least in my test environment:
First, I verified that the suggested mainline fix for the issue [3] indeed
fixes it, by testing with it applied and reverted on v4.18, a clean revert.
(The issue is reproducible with the commit reverted).
Then, with a consistent reproducer, I moved to nf.git, with HEAD on commit
a007232 ("netfilter: nf_conncount: fix argument order to find_next_bit"),
and the issues was not reproducible (even with 20+ threads on client side,
the number Alakesh reported to achieve 2150+ connections [4], and I tried
spreading the network interface IRQ affinity over more and more CPUs too.)
Either way, the suggested mainline fix does actually fix the issue in 4.14
for at least one environment. So, it might well be the case that Alakesh's
test environment has differences/subtleties that leads to more connections
accepted, and more commits are needed for that particular environment type.
But for now, with one bare-metal environment (24-core server, 4-core client)
verified, I thought of submitting the patches for review/comments/testing,
then looking for additional fixes for that environment separately.
The fix is PATCH 4/4, and PATCHes 1-3/4 are helpers for a cleaner backport.
All backports are simple, and essentially consist of refresh context lines
and use older struct/file names.
Reviews from netfilter maintainers are very appreciated, as I've no previous
experience in this area, and although the backports look simple and build/run
correctly, there's usually stuff that only more experienced people may notice.
Thanks,
Mauricio

gen_crc64table requires linux include files to be installed in
/usr/include/linux. This is a new requrement so hosts that could
previously build the kernel, now cannot.
gen_crc64table makes this requirement by including <linux/swab.h>, but
nothing from that header is actually used.
So remove the #include, so that the linux headers no longer need to be
installed.

Burt Holzman has noticed that memcg v1 doesn't notify about OOM events via
eventfd anymore. The reason is that 29ef680ae7c2 ("memcg, oom: move
out_of_memory back to the charge path") has moved the oom handling back to
the charge path. While doing so the notification was left behind in
mem_cgroup_oom_synchronize.
Fix the issue by replicating the oom hierarchy locking and the
notification.

Subject: mm, swap: fix swapoff with KSM pages
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-swap-fix-swapoff-with-ksm-pages.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Huang Ying <ying.huang(a)intel.com>
Subject: mm, swap: fix swapoff with KSM pages
KSM pages may be mapped to the multiple VMAs that cannot be reached from
one anon_vma. So during swapin, a new copy of the page need to be
generated if a different anon_vma is needed, please refer to comments of
ksm_might_need_to_copy() for details.
During swapoff, unuse_vma() uses anon_vma (if available) to locate VMA and
virtual address mapped to the page, so not all mappings to a swapped out
KSM page could be found. So in try_to_unuse(), even if the swap count of
a swap entry isn't zero, the page needs to be deleted from swap cache, so
that, in the next round a new page could be allocated and swapin for the
other mappings of the swapped out KSM page.
But this contradicts with the THP swap support. Where the THP could be
deleted from swap cache only after the swap count of every swap entry in
the huge swap cluster backing the THP has reach 0. So try_to_unuse() is
changed in commit e07098294adf ("mm, THP, swap: support to reclaim swap
space for THP swapped out") to check that before delete a page from swap
cache, but this has broken KSM swapoff too.
Fortunately, KSM is for the normal pages only, so the original behavior
for KSM pages could be restored easily via checking PageTransCompound().
That is how this patch works.
The bug is introduced by e07098294adf ("mm, THP, swap: support to reclaim
swap space for THP swapped out"), which is merged by v4.14-rc1. So I
think we should backport the fix to from 4.14 on. But Hugh thinks it may
be rare for the KSM pages being in the swap device when swapoff, so nobody
reports the bug so far.

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Mike Kravetz <mike.kravetz(a)oracle.com>
Subject: hugetlbfs: Use i_mmap_rwsem to fix page fault/truncate race
hugetlbfs page faults can race with truncate and hole punch operations.
Current code in the page fault path attempts to handle this by 'backing
out' operations if we encounter the race. One obvious omission in the
current code is removing a page newly added to the page cache. This is
pretty straight forward to address, but there is a more subtle and
difficult issue of backing out hugetlb reservations. To handle this
correctly, the 'reservation state' before page allocation needs to be
noted so that it can be properly backed out. There are four distinct
possibilities for reservation state: shared/reserved, shared/no-resv,
private/reserved and private/no-resv. Backing out a reservation may
require memory allocation which could fail so that needs to be taken into
account as well.
Instead of writing the required complicated code for this rare occurrence,
just eliminate the race. i_mmap_rwsem is now held in read mode for the
duration of page fault processing. Hold i_mmap_rwsem longer in truncation
and hold punch code to cover the call to remove_inode_hugepages.
With this modification, code in remove_inode_hugepages checking for races
becomes 'dead' as it can not longer happen. Remove the dead code and
expand comments to explain reasoning. Similarly, checks for races with
truncation in the page fault path can be simplified and removed.

------------------------------------------------------
From: Mike Kravetz <mike.kravetz(a)oracle.com>
Subject: hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization
While looking at BUGs associated with invalid huge page map counts, it was
discovered and observed that a huge pte pointer could become 'invalid' and
point to another task's page table. Consider the following:
A task takes a page fault on a shared hugetlbfs file and calls
huge_pte_alloc to get a ptep. Suppose the returned ptep points to a
shared pmd.
Now, another task truncates the hugetlbfs file. As part of truncation, it
unmaps everyone who has the file mapped. If the range being truncated is
covered by a shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will be called. For all but the
last user of the shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will clear the pud pointing
to the pmd. If the task in the middle of the page fault is not the last
user, the ptep returned by huge_pte_alloc now points to another task's
page table or worse. This leads to bad things such as incorrect page
map/reference counts or invalid memory references.
To fix, expand the use of i_mmap_rwsem as follows:
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in read mode whenever huge_pmd_share is called.
huge_pmd_share is only called via huge_pte_alloc, so callers of
huge_pte_alloc take i_mmap_rwsem before calling. In addition, callers
of huge_pte_alloc continue to hold the semaphore until finished with the
ptep.
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is
called.

------------------------------------------------------
From: Michal Hocko <mhocko(a)suse.com>
Subject: hwpoison, memory_hotplug: allow hwpoisoned pages to be offlined
We have received a bug report that an injected MCE about faulty memory
prevents memory offline to succeed on 4.4 base kernel. The underlying
reason was that the HWPoison page has an elevated reference count and the
migration keeps failing. There are two problems with that. First of all
it is dubious to migrate the poisoned page because we know that accessing
that memory is possible to fail. Secondly it doesn't make any sense to
migrate a potentially broken content and preserve the memory corruption
over to a new location.
Oscar has found out that 4.4 and the current upstream kernels behave
slightly differently with his simply testcase
===
int main(void)
{
int ret;
int i;
int fd;
char *array = malloc(4096);
char *array_locked = malloc(4096);
fd = open("/tmp/data", O_RDONLY);
read(fd, array, 4095);
for (i = 0; i < 4096; i++)
array_locked[i] = 'd';
ret = mlock((void *)PAGE_ALIGN((unsigned long)array_locked), sizeof(array_locked));
if (ret)
perror("mlock");
sleep (20);
ret = madvise((void *)PAGE_ALIGN((unsigned long)array_locked), 4096, MADV_HWPOISON);
if (ret)
perror("madvise");
for (i = 0; i < 4096; i++)
array_locked[i] = 'd';
return 0;
}
===
+ offline this memory.
In 4.4 kernels he saw the hwpoisoned page to be returned back to the LRU
list

And that latter confuses the hotremove path because an LRU page is
attempted to be migrated and that fails due to an elevated reference
count. It is quite possible that the reuse of the HWPoisoned page is some
kind of fixed race condition but I am not really sure about that.
With the upstream kernel the failure is slightly different. The page
doesn't seem to have LRU bit set but isolate_movable_page simply fails and
do_migrate_range simply puts all the isolated pages back to LRU and
therefore no progress is made and scan_movable_pages finds same set of
pages over and over again.
Fix both cases by explicitly checking HWPoisoned pages before we even try
to get reference on the page, try to unmap it if it is still mapped. As
explained by Naoya:
: Hwpoison code never unmapped those for no big reason because
: Ksm pages never dominate memory, so we simply didn't have strong
: motivation to save the pages.
Also put WARN_ON(PageLRU) in case there is a race and we can hit LRU
HWPoison pages which shouldn't happen but I couldn't convince myself about
that. Naoya has noted the following:
: Theoretically no such gurantee, because try_to_unmap() doesn't have a
: guarantee of success and then memory_failure() returns immediately
: when hwpoison_user_mappings fails.
: Or the following code (comes after hwpoison_user_mappings block) also impli=
: es
: that the target page can still have PageLRU flag.
:
: /*
: * Torn down by someone else?
: */
: if (PageLRU(p) && !PageSwapCache(p) && p->mapping =3D=3D NULL) {
: action_result(pfn, MF_MSG_TRUNCATED_LRU, MF_IGNORED);
: res =3D -EBUSY;
: goto out;
: }
:
: So I think it's OK to keep "if (WARN_ON(PageLRU(page)))" block in
: current version of your patch.
