commit 6d9e8c651dd979aa666bee15f086745f3ea9c4b3 upstream.

Patch series "use div64_ul() instead of div_u64() if the divisor is
unsigned long".

We were first inspired by commit b0ab99e7736a ("sched: Fix possible divide
by zero in avg_atom () calculation"), then refer to the recently analyzed
mm code, we found this suspicious place.

 201                 if (min) {
 202                         min *= this_bw;
 203                         do_div(min, tot_bw);
 204                 }

And we also disassembled and confirmed it:

This series uses div64_ul() instead of div_u64() if the divisor is
unsigned long, to avoid truncation to 32-bit on 64-bit platforms.

This patch (of 3):

The variables 'min' and 'max' are unsigned long and do_div truncates
them to 32 bits, which means it can test non-zero and be truncated to
zero for division.  Fix this issue by using div64_ul() instead.

<title>mm/memory_hotplug: don't free usage map when removing a re-added early section</title>

commit 8068df3b60373c390198f660574ea14c8098de57 upstream.

When we remove an early section, we don't free the usage map, as the
usage maps of other sections are placed into the same page.  Once the
section is removed, it is no longer an early section (especially, the
memmap is freed).  When we re-add that section, the usage map is reused,
however, it is no longer an early section.  When removing that section
again, we try to kfree() a usage map that was allocated during early
boot - bad.

Let's check against PageReserved() to see if we are dealing with an
usage map that was allocated during boot.  We could also check against
!(PageSlab(usage_page) || PageCompound(usage_page)), but PageReserved() is
cleaner.

Can be triggered using memtrace under ppc64/powernv:

  $ mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug/
  $ echo 0x20000000 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/memtrace/enable
  $ echo 0x20000000 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/memtrace/enable

Tested on powernv with boot memory: The usage map will not get freed.
Tested on x86-64 with DIMMs: The usage map will get freed.

Using Dynamic Memory under a Power DLAPR can trigger it easily.

Triggering removal (I assume after previously removed+re-added) of
memory from the HMC GUI can crash the kernel with the same call trace
and is fixed by this patch.

<title>mm, debug_pagealloc: don't rely on static keys too early</title>

commit 8e57f8acbbd121ecfb0c9dc13b8b030f86c6bd3b upstream.

Commit 96a2b03f281d ("mm, debug_pagelloc: use static keys to enable
debugging") has introduced a static key to reduce overhead when
debug_pagealloc is compiled in but not enabled.  It relied on the
assumption that jump_label_init() is called before parse_early_param()
as in start_kernel(), so when the "debug_pagealloc=on" option is parsed,
it is safe to enable the static key.

However, it turns out multiple architectures call parse_early_param()
earlier from their setup_arch().  x86 also calls jump_label_init() even
earlier, so no issue was found while testing the commit, but same is not
true for e.g.  ppc64 and s390 where the kernel would not boot with
debug_pagealloc=on as found by our QA.

To fix this without tricky changes to init code of multiple
architectures, this patch partially reverts the static key conversion
from 96a2b03f281d.  Init-time and non-fastpath calls (such as in arch
code) of debug_pagealloc_enabled() will again test a simple bool
variable.  Fastpath mm code is converted to a new
debug_pagealloc_enabled_static() variant that relies on the static key,
which is enabled in a well-defined point in mm_init() where it's
guaranteed that jump_label_init() has been called, regardless of
architecture.

commit 2fe20210fc5f5e62644678b8f927c49f2c6f42a7 upstream.

When booting with amd_iommu=off, the following WARNING message
appears:

The warning is caused by the calling of 'kmem_cache_destroy()'
in free_iommu_resources(). Here is the call path:

  free_iommu_resources
    kmem_cache_destroy
      flush_memcg_workqueue
        flush_workqueue

The root cause is that the IOMMU subsystem runs before the workqueue
subsystem, which the variable 'wq_online' is still 'false'.  This leads
to the statement 'if (WARN_ON(!wq_online))' in flush_workqueue() is
'true'.

Since the variable 'memcg_kmem_cache_wq' is not allocated during the
time, it is unnecessary to call flush_memcg_workqueue().  This prevents
the WARNING message triggered by flush_workqueue().

<content type='text'>
commit 4a87e2a25dc27131c3cce5e94421622193305638 upstream.

Currently slab percpu vmstats are flushed twice: during the memcg
offlining and just before freeing the memcg structure.  Each time percpu
counters are summed, added to the atomic counterparts and propagated up
by the cgroup tree.

The second flushing is required due to how recursive vmstats are
implemented: counters are batched in percpu variables on a local level,
and once a percpu value is crossing some predefined threshold, it spills
over to atomic values on the local and each ascendant levels.  It means
that without flushing some numbers cached in percpu variables will be
dropped on floor each time a cgroup is destroyed.  And with uptime the
error on upper levels might become noticeable.

The first flushing aims to make counters on ancestor levels more
precise.  Dying cgroups may resume in the dying state for a long time.
After kmem_cache reparenting which is performed during the offlining
slab counters of the dying cgroup don't have any chances to be updated,
because any slab operations will be performed on the parent level.  It
means that the inaccuracy caused by percpu batching will not decrease up
to the final destruction of the cgroup.  By the original idea flushing
slab counters during the offlining should minimize the visible
inaccuracy of slab counters on the parent level.

The problem is that percpu counters are not zeroed after the first
flushing.  So every cached percpu value is summed twice.  It creates a
small error (up to 32 pages per cpu, but usually less) which accumulates
on parent cgroup level.  After creating and destroying of thousands of
child cgroups, slab counter on parent level can be way off the real
value.

For now, let's just stop flushing slab counters on memcg offlining.  It
can't be done correctly without scheduling a work on each cpu: reading
and zeroing it during css offlining can race with an asynchronous
update, which doesn't expect values to be changed underneath.

With this change, slab counters on parent level will become eventually
consistent.  Once all dying children are gone, values are correct.  And
if not, the error is capped by 32 * NR_CPUS pages per dying cgroup.

It's not perfect, as slab are reparented, so any updates after the
reparenting will happen on the parent level.  It means that if a slab
page was allocated, a counter on child level was bumped, then the page
was reparented and freed, the annihilation of positive and negative
counter values will not happen until the child cgroup is released.  It
makes slab counters different from others, and it might want us to
implement flushing in a correct form again.  But it's also a question of
performance: scheduling a work on each cpu isn't free, and it's an open
question if the benefit of having more accurate counters is worth it.

We might also consider flushing all counters on offlining, not only slab
counters.

So let's fix the main problem now: make the slab counters eventually
consistent, so at least the error won't grow with uptime (or more
precisely the number of created and destroyed cgroups).  And think about
the accuracy of counters separately.

commit 97d3d0f9a1cf132c63c0b8b8bd497b8a56283dd9 upstream.

Patch series "Fix two above-47bit hint address vs.  THP bugs".

The two get_unmapped_area() implementations have to be fixed to provide
THP-friendly mappings if above-47bit hint address is specified.

This patch (of 2):

Filesystems use thp_get_unmapped_area() to provide THP-friendly
mappings.  For DAX in particular.

Normally, the kernel doesn't create userspace mappings above 47-bit,
even if the machine allows this (such as with 5-level paging on x86-64).
Not all user space is ready to handle wide addresses.  It's known that
at least some JIT compilers use higher bits in pointers to encode their
information.

Userspace can ask for allocation from full address space by specifying
hint address (with or without MAP_FIXED) above 47-bits.  If the
application doesn't need a particular address, but wants to allocate
from whole address space it can specify -1 as a hint address.

Unfortunately, this trick breaks thp_get_unmapped_area(): the function
would not try to allocate PMD-aligned area if *any* hint address
specified.

Modify the routine to handle it correctly:

 - Try to allocate the space at the specified hint address with length
   padding required for PMD alignment.
 - If failed, retry without length padding (but with the same hint
   address);
 - If the returned address matches the hint address return it.
 - Otherwise, align the address as required for THP and return.

The user specified hint address is passed down to get_unmapped_area() so
above-47bit hint address will be taken into account without breaking
alignment requirements.

commit 991589974d9c9ecb24ee3799ec8c415c730598a2 upstream.

Shmem/tmpfs tries to provide THP-friendly mappings if huge pages are
enabled.  But it doesn't work well with above-47bit hint address.

Normally, the kernel doesn't create userspace mappings above 47-bit,
even if the machine allows this (such as with 5-level paging on x86-64).
Not all user space is ready to handle wide addresses.  It's known that
at least some JIT compilers use higher bits in pointers to encode their
information.

Userspace can ask for allocation from full address space by specifying
hint address (with or without MAP_FIXED) above 47-bits.  If the
application doesn't need a particular address, but wants to allocate
from whole address space it can specify -1 as a hint address.

Unfortunately, this trick breaks THP alignment in shmem/tmp:
shmem_get_unmapped_area() would not try to allocate PMD-aligned area if
*any* hint address specified.

This can be fixed by requesting the aligned area if the we failed to
allocated at user-specified hint address.  The request with inflated
length will also take the user-specified hint address.  This way we will
not lose an allocation request from the full address space.

even if the machine allows this (such as with 5-level paging on x86-64).
Not all user space is ready to handle wide addresses.  It's known that
at least some JIT compilers use higher bits in pointers to encode their
information.

Userspace can ask for allocation from full address space by specifying
hint address (with or without MAP_FIXED) above 47-bits.  If the
application doesn't need a particular address, but wants to allocate
from whole address space it can specify -1 as a hint address.

Unfortunately, this trick breaks THP alignment in shmem/tmp:
shmem_get_unmapped_area() would not try to allocate PMD-aligned area if
*any* hint address specified.

This can be fixed by requesting the aligned area if the we failed to
allocated at user-specified hint address.  The request with inflated
length will also take the user-specified hint address.  This way we will
not lose an allocation request from the full address space.

commit 1d1585ca0f48fe7ed95c3571f3e4a82b2b5045dc upstream.

Commit 3d7081822f7f ("uaccess: Add non-pagefault user-space read functions")
missed to add probe write function, therefore factor out a probe_write_common()
helper with most logic of probe_kernel_write() except setting KERNEL_DS, and
add a new probe_user_write() helper so it can be used from BPF side.

Again, on some archs, the user address space and kernel address space can
co-exist and be overlapping, so in such case, setting KERNEL_DS would mean
that the given address is treated as being in kernel address space.

The following lockdep splat was observed when a certain hugetlbfs test
was run:

  ================================
  WARNING: inconsistent lock state

   &lt;/IRQ&gt;

Both the hugetbl_lock and the subpool lock can be acquired in
free_huge_page().  One way to solve the problem is to make both locks
irq-safe.  However, Mike Kravetz had learned that the hugetlb_lock is
held for a linear scan of ALL hugetlb pages during a cgroup reparentling
operation.  So it is just too long to have irq disabled unless we can
break hugetbl_lock down into finer-grained locks with shorter lock hold
times.

Another alternative is to defer the freeing to a workqueue job.  This
patch implements the deferred freeing by adding a free_hpage_workfn()
work function to do the actual freeing.  The free_huge_page() call in a
non-task context saves the page to be freed in the hpage_freelist linked
list in a lockless manner using the llist APIs.

The generic workqueue is used to process the work, but a dedicated
workqueue can be used instead if it is desirable to have the huge page
freed ASAP.

Thanks to Kirill Tkhai &lt;ktkhai@virtuozzo.com&gt; for suggesting the use of
llist APIs which simplfy the code.

[ Upstream commit 030eab4f9ffb469344c10a46bc02c5149db0a2a9 ]

Building the kernel on s390 with -Og produces the following warning:

  WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x28dabe): Section mismatch in reference from the function populate_section_memmap() to the function .meminit.text:__populate_section_memmap()
  The function populate_section_memmap() references
  the function __meminit __populate_section_memmap().
  This is often because populate_section_memmap lacks a __meminit
  annotation or the annotation of __populate_section_memmap is wrong.

While -Og is not supported, in theory this might still happen with
another compiler or on another architecture.  So fix this by using the
correct section annotations.
