Why is there less MemFree than there used to be? It perturbed a test,
so I've just been bisecting linux-next, and now find the offender went
upstream yesterday.
Commit 93278814d3 "mm: fix division by 0 in percpu_pagelist_fraction()"
mistakenly initialized percpu_pagelist_fraction to the sysctl's minimum 8,
which leaves 1/8th of memory on percpu lists (on each cpu??); but most of
us expect it to be left unset at 0 (and it's not then used as a divisor).
MemTotal: 8061476kB 8061476kB 8061476kB 8061476kB 8061476kB 8061476kB

Commit 66aebce747 ("hugetlb: fix race condition in hugetlb_fault()")

However, one code path in hugetlb_cow() includes an assertion that the
page count is 1, whereas it may now also have the value 2 in this path.
The consensus is that this BUG_ON has served its purpose, so rather than
extending it to cover both cases, we just remove it.

compat_sys_sigprocmask reads a smaller signal mask from userspace than
sigprogmask accepts for setting. So the high word of blocked.sig[0]
will be cleared, releasing any potentially blocked RT signal.
This was discovered via userspace code that relies on get/setcontext.
glibc's i386 versions of those functions use sigprogmask instead of
rt_sigprogmask to save/restore signal mask and caused RT signal
unblocking this way.
As suggested by Linus, this replaces the sys_sigprocmask based compat
version with one that open-codes the required logic, including the merge
of the existing blocked set with the new one provided on SIG_SETMASK.

pcpu_embed_first_chunk() allocates memory for each node, copies percpu
data and frees unused portions of it before proceeding to the next
group. This assumes that allocations for different nodes doesn't
overlap; however, depending on memory topology, the bootmem allocator
may end up allocating memory from a different node than the requested
one which may overlap with the portion freed from one of the previous
percpu areas. This leads to percpu groups for different nodes
overlapping which is a serious bug.
This patch separates out copy & partial free from the allocation loop
such that all allocations are complete before partial frees happen.
This also fixes overlapping frees which could happen on allocation
failure path - out_free_areas path frees whole groups but the groups
could have portions freed at that point.

Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com>
The function regmap_bulk_read() calls the regmap_read() for
each register if set of register has volatile and cache is
enabled. In this case, last few register read makes the memory
corruption if the register size is not the size of unsigned int.
The regam_read() takes argument as unsigned int for returning
value and it update the value as
*val = map->format.parse_val(map->work_buf);
This causes complete 4 bytes (size of unsigned int) to get written.
Now if client pass the memory pointer for value which is equal to the
required size of register count in regmap_bulk_read() then last few
register read actually update the memory beyond passed pointer size.
Avoid this by using local variable for read and then do memcpy()
for actual byte copy to passed pointer based on register size.
I allocated one pointer ptr and take first 16 bytes dump of that
pointer then call regmap_bulk_read() with pointer which is just
on top of this allocated pointer and register count of 128. Here
register size is 1 byte.
The memory trace of last 5 register read are as follows:
[ 5.438589] regmap_bulk_read after regamp_read() for register 122
[ 5.447421] 0xef993c20 0xef993c00 0x00000000 0x00000001

When an IRQ for some reason gets lost, we wait up to a second using
udelay, which is CPU intensive. This patch improves the situation by
waiting about 30 ms in the CPU intensive mode, then stepping down to
using msleep(2) instead. In essence, we trade some granularity in
exchange for less CPU consumption when the waiting time is a bit longer.
As a result, PulseAudio should no longer be killed by the kernel
for taking up to much RT-prio CPU time. At least not for *this* reason.

mapping."

percpu, x86: don't use PMD_SIZE as embedded atom_size on 32bit

Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
"This is mainly audit fixes, found by folks who happened to enable this
feature and then found it broke their user applications."
* 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm:
ARM: 7414/1: SMP: prevent use of the console when using idmap_pgd
ARM: 7412/1: audit: use only AUDIT_ARCH_ARM regardless of endianness
ARM: 7411/1: audit: fix treatment of saved ip register during syscall tracing
ARM: 7410/1: Add extra clobber registers for assembly in kernel_execve
With the embed percpu first chunk allocator, x86 uses either PAGE_SIZE
or PMD_SIZE for atom_size. PMD_SIZE is used when CPU supports PSE so
that percpu areas are aligned to PMD mappings and possibly allow using
PMD mappings in vmalloc areas in the future. Using larger atom_size
doesn't waste actual memory; however, it does require larger vmalloc
space allocation later on for !first chunks.
With reasonably sized vmalloc area, PMD_SIZE shouldn't be a problem
but x86_32 at this point is anything but reasonable in terms of
address space and using larger atom_size reportedly leads to frequent
percpu allocation failures on certain setups.
As there is no reason to not use PMD_SIZE on x86_64 as vmalloc space
is aplenty and most x86_64 configurations support PSE, fix the issue
by always using PMD_SIZE on x86_64 and PAGE_SIZE on x86_32.
v2: drop cpu_has_pse test and make x86_64 always use PMD_SIZE and
x86_32 PAGE_SIZE as suggested by hpa.

The H_REGISTER_VPA hcall implementation in HV Power KVM needs to pin some
guest memory pages into host memory so that they can be safely accessed
from usermode. It does this used get_user_pages_fast(). When the VPA is
unregistered, or the VCPUs are cleaned up, these pages are released using
put_page().
However, the get_user_pages() is invoked on the specific memory are of the
VPA which could lie within hugepages. In case the pinned page is huge,
we explicitly find the head page of the compound page before calling
put_page() on it.
At least with the latest kernel, this is not correct. put_page() already
handles finding the correct head page of a compound, and also deals with
various counts on the individual tail page which are important for
transparent huge pages. We don't support transparent hugepages on Power,
but even so, bypassing this count maintenance can lead (when the VM ends)
to a hugepage being released back to the pool with a non-zero mapcount on
one of the tail pages. This can then lead to a bad_page() when the page
is released from the hugepage pool.
This removes the explicit compound_head() call to correct this bug.

This reverts commit 785f857d1c.
The commit causes a problem with the wrong D3 state after suspend
because the call of hda_set_power_state() involves with the power-up
sequence, which changes the power_count, and this confuses the resume
sequence that checks the power_count as well.
Originally, this go-to-D3 sequence should be a simple task without the
power-up sequence. But, it'd need some proper sanity checks in the
case of power-saved state, so it's not too easy to write now in the
3.4-rc cycle.
In short, the safest option now is to revert this affecting commit.
Of course, we need to clean up and robustify the power-saving code
better for 3.5 kernel.
