<title>mm/rmap: Fix anon_vma-&gt;degree ambiguity leading to double-reuse</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=2555283eb40df89945557273121e9393ef9b542b'/>
<id>2555283eb40df89945557273121e9393ef9b542b</id>
<content type='text'>
anon_vma-&gt;degree tracks the combined number of child anon_vmas and VMAs
that use the anon_vma as their -&gt;anon_vma.

anon_vma_clone() then assumes that for any anon_vma attached to
src-&gt;anon_vma_chain other than src-&gt;anon_vma, it is impossible for it to
be a leaf node of the VMA tree, meaning that for such VMAs -&gt;degree is
elevated by 1 because of a child anon_vma, meaning that if -&gt;degree
equals 1 there are no VMAs that use the anon_vma as their -&gt;anon_vma.

This assumption is wrong because the -&gt;degree optimization leads to leaf
nodes being abandoned on anon_vma_clone() - an existing anon_vma is
reused and no new parent-child relationship is created.  So it is
possible to reuse an anon_vma for one VMA while it is still tied to
another VMA.

This is an issue because is_mergeable_anon_vma() and its callers assume
that if two VMAs have the same -&gt;anon_vma, the list of anon_vmas
attached to the VMAs is guaranteed to be the same.  When this assumption
is violated, vma_merge() can merge pages into a VMA that is not attached
to the corresponding anon_vma, leading to dangling page-&gt;mapping
pointers that will be dereferenced during rmap walks.

Fix it by separately tracking the number of child anon_vmas and the
number of VMAs using the anon_vma as their -&gt;anon_vma.

This patch fixes two warnings generated by make docs. The functions
fscache_use_cookie and fscache_unuse_cookie, both have a parameter
named cookie. But they are documented with the name "object" with
unclear description. Which generates the warning when creating docs.

This commit will replace the currently misdocumented parameter names
with the correct ones while adding proper descriptions.

Automatic kernel fuzzing revealed a recursive locking violation in
usb-storage:

This turned out not to be an error in usb-storage but rather a nested
device reset attempt.  That is, as the rtl8712 driver was being
unbound from a composite device in preparation for an unrelated USB
reset (that driver does not have pre_reset or post_reset callbacks),
its -&gt;remove routine called usb_reset_device() -- thus nesting one
reset call within another.

Performing a reset as part of disconnect processing is a questionable
practice at best.  However, the bug report points out that the USB
core does not have any protection against nested resets.  Adding a
reset_in_progress flag and testing it will prevent such errors in the
future.

<title>tracing: Define the is_signed_type() macro once</title>

There are two definitions of the is_signed_type() macro: one in
&lt;linux/overflow.h&gt; and a second definition in &lt;linux/trace_events.h&gt;.

As suggested by Linus, move the definition of the is_signed_type() macro
into the &lt;linux/compiler.h&gt; header file.  Change the definition of the
is_signed_type() macro to make sure that it does not trigger any sparse
warnings with future versions of sparse for bitwise types.
