cgroup/kmemleak: Annotate alloc_page() for cgroup allocations
When the cgroup base was allocated with kmalloc, it was necessary to
annotate the variable with kmemleak_not_leak(). But because it has
recently been changed to be allocated with alloc_page() (which skips
kmemleak checks) causes a warning on boot up.
I was triggering this output:
allocated

After a bit of debugging I tracked the object 0xf840000 (and others) down
to the cgroup code. The change from allocating base with kmalloc to
alloc_page() has the base not calling kmemleak_alloc() which adds the
pointer to the object_tree_root, but kmemleak_not_leak() adds it to the
crt_early_log[] table. On kmemleak_init(), the entry is found in the
early_log[] but not the object_tree_root, and this error message is
displayed.
If alloc_page() fails then it defaults back to vmalloc() which still uses
the kmemleak_alloc() which makes us still need the kmemleak_not_leak()
call. The solution is to call the kmemleak_alloc() directly if the
alloc_page() succeeds.

cgroups: don't attach task to subsystem if migration failed
If a task has exited to the point it has called cgroup_exit() already,
then we can't migrate it to another cgroup anymore.
This can happen when we are attaching a task to a new cgroup between the
call to ->can_attach_task() on subsystems and the migration that is
eventually tried in cgroup_task_migrate().
In this case cgroup_task_migrate() returns -ESRCH and we don't want to
attach the task to the subsystems because the attachment to the new cgroup
itself failed.
Fix this by only calling ->attach_task() on the subsystems if the cgroup
migration succeeded.

hfs: fix hfs_find_init() sb->ext_tree NULL ptr oops
Clement Lecigne reports a filesystem which causes a kernel oops in
hfs_find_init() trying to dereference sb->ext_tree which is NULL.
This proves to be because the filesystem has a corrupted MDB extent
record, where the extents file does not fit into the first three extents
in the file record (the first blocks).
In hfs_get_block() when looking up the blocks for the extent file
(HFS_EXT_CNID), it fails the first blocks special case, and falls
through to the extent code (which ultimately calls hfs_find_init())
which is in the process of being initialised.
Hfs avoids this scenario by always having the extents b-tree fitting
into the first blocks (the extents B-tree can't have overflow extents).
The fix is to check at mount time that the B-tree fits into first
blocks, i.e. fail if HFS_I(inode)->alloc_blocks >=
HFS_I(inode)->first_blocks
Note, the existing commit
47f365eb57573 ("hfs: fix oops on mount with
corrupted btree extent records") becomes subsumed into this as a special
case, but only for the extents B-tree (HFS_EXT_CNID), it is perfectly
acceptable for the catalog B-Tree file to grow beyond three extents,
with the remaining extent descriptors in the extents overfow.
This fixes CVE-2011-2203

powerpc: get_hugepte() don't put_page() the wrong page
"page" may have changed to point to the next hugepage after the loop
completed, The references have been taken on the head page, so the
put_page must happen there too.
This is a longstanding issue pre-thp inclusion.
It's totally unclear how these page_cache_add_speculative and
pte_val(pte) != pte_val(*ptep) checks are necessary across all the
powerpc gup_fast code, when x86 doesn't need any of that: there's no way
the page can be freed with irq disabled so we're guaranteed the
atomic_inc will happen on a page with page_count > 0 (so not needing the
speculative check).
The pte check is also meaningless on x86: no need to rollback on x86 if
the pte changed, because the pte can still change a CPU tick after the
check succeeded and it won't be rolled back in that case. The important
thing is we got a reference on a valid page that was mapped there a CPU
tick ago. So not knowing the soft tlb refill code of ppc64 in great
detail I'm not removing the "speculative" page_count increase and the
pte checks across all the code, but unless there's a strong reason for
it they should be later cleaned up too.
If a pte can change from huge to non-huge (like it could happen with
THP) passing a pte_t *ptep to gup_hugepte() would also require to repeat
the is_hugepd in gup_hugepte(), but that shouldn't happen with hugetlbfs
only so I'm not altering that.

mm: thp: tail page refcounting fix
Michel while working on the working set estimation code, noticed that
calling get_page_unless_zero() on a random pfn_to_page(random_pfn)
wasn't safe, if the pfn ended up being a tail page of a transparent
hugepage under splitting by __split_huge_page_refcount().
He then found the problem could also theoretically materialize with
page_cache_get_speculative() during the speculative radix tree lookups
that uses get_page_unless_zero() in SMP if the radix tree page is freed
and reallocated and get_user_pages is called on it before
page_cache_get_speculative has a chance to call get_page_unless_zero().
So the best way to fix the problem is to keep page_tail->_count zero at
all times. This will guarantee that get_page_unless_zero() can never
succeed on any tail page. page_tail->_mapcount is guaranteed zero and
is unused for all tail pages of a compound page, so we can simply
account the tail page references there and transfer them to
tail_page->_count in __split_huge_page_refcount() (in addition to the
head_page->_mapcount).
While debugging this s/_count/_mapcount/ change I also noticed get_page is
called by direct-io.c on pages returned by get_user_pages. That wasn't
entirely safe because the two atomic_inc in get_page weren't atomic. As
opposed to other get_user_page users like secondary-MMU page fault to
establish the shadow pagetables would never call any superflous get_page
after get_user_page returns. It's safer to make get_page universally safe
for tail pages and to use get_page_foll() within follow_page (inside
get_user_pages()). get_page_foll() is safe to do the refcounting for tail
pages without taking any locks because it is run within PT lock protected
critical sections (PT lock for pte and page_table_lock for
pmd_trans_huge).
The standard get_page() as invoked by direct-io instead will now take
the compound_lock but still only for tail pages. The direct-io paths
are usually I/O bound and the compound_lock is per THP so very
finegrined, so there's no risk of scalability issues with it. A simple
direct-io benchmarks with all lockdep prove locking and spinlock
debugging infrastructure enabled shows identical performance and no
overhead. So it's worth it. Ideally direct-io should stop calling
get_page() on pages returned by get_user_pages(). The spinlock in
get_page() is already optimized away for no-THP builds but doing
get_page() on tail pages returned by GUP is generally a rare operation
and usually only run in I/O paths.
This new refcounting on page_tail->_mapcount in addition to avoiding new
RCU critical sections will also allow the working set estimation code to

sysfs: Make sysfs_rename safe with sysfs_dirents in rbtrees.
In sysfs_rename we need to remove the optimization of not calling
sysfs_unlink_sibling and sysfs_link_sibling if the renamed parent
directory is not changing. This optimization is no longer valid now
that sysfs dirents are stored in an rbtree sorted by name.
Move the assignment of s_ns before the call of sysfs_link_sibling. With
no sysfs_dirent fields changing after the call of sysfs_link_sibling
this allows sysfs_link_sibling to take any of the directory entries into
account when it builds the rbtrees, and s_ns looks like a prime canidate
to be used in the rbtree in the future.

Add extra arch overrides to asm-generic/checksum.h
There are plausible reasons for architectures to provide their own
versions of csum_partial_copy_nocheck and csum_tcpudp_magic.
By protecting these, the architecture can still re-use the
asm-generic checksum.h, instead of copying it.

epoll: fix spurious lockdep warnings
epoll can acquire recursively acquire ep->mtx on multiple "struct
eventpoll"s at once in the case where one epoll fd is monitoring another
epoll fd. This is perfectly OK, since we're careful about the lock
ordering, but it causes spurious lockdep warnings. Annotate the recursion
using mutex_lock_nested, and add a comment explaining the nesting rules
for good measure.
Recent versions of systemd are triggering this, and it can also be
demonstrated with the following trivial test program:
--------------------8<--------------------
int main(void) {
int e1, e2;
struct epoll_event evt = {
.events = EPOLLIN
};
e1 = epoll_create1(0);
e2 = epoll_create1(0);
epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e2, &evt);
return 0;
}

lib: rename pack_hex_byte() to hex_byte_pack()
As suggested by Andrew Morton in [1] there is better to have most
significant part first in the function name.

lib/string.c: fix strim() semantics for strings that have only blanks
Commit
84c95c9acf0 ("string: on strstrip(), first remove leading spaces
before running over str") improved
\7f the performance of the strim()
function.
Unfortunately this changed the semantics of strim() and broke my code.
Before the patch it was possible to use strim() without using the return
value for removing trailing spaces from strings that had either only
blanks or only trailing blanks.
Now this does not work any longer for strings that *only* have blanks.
Before patch: " " -> "" (empty string)
After patch: " " -> " " (no change)
I think we should remove your patch to restore the old behavior.
The description (lib/string.c):
* Note that the first trailing whitespace is replaced with a %NUL-terminator
=> The first trailing whitespace of a string that only has whitespace
characters is the first whitespace
The patch restores the old strim() semantics.
