Pull vfs fixes from Al Viro.
- fix io_destroy()/aio_complete() race
- the vfs_open() change to get rid of open_check_o_direct() boilerplate
was nice, but buggy. Al has a patch avoiding a revert, but that's
definitely not a last-day fodder, so for now revert it is...
* 'fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
Revert "fs: fold open_check_o_direct into do_dentry_open"
fix io_destroy()/aio_complete() race
|
|
This reverts commit cab64df194667dc5d9d786f0a895f647f5501c0d.
Having vfs_open() in some cases drop the reference to
struct file combined with
error = vfs_open(path, f, cred);
if (error) {
put_filp(f);
return ERR_PTR(error);
}
return f;
is flat-out wrong. It used to be
error = vfs_open(path, f, cred);
if (!error) {
/* from now on we need fput() to dispose of f */
error = open_check_o_direct(f);
if (error) {
fput(f);
f = ERR_PTR(error);
}
} else {
put_filp(f);
f = ERR_PTR(error);
}
and sure, having that open_check_o_direct() boilerplate gotten rid of is
nice, but not that way...
Worse, another call chain (via finish_open()) is FUBAR now wrt
FILE_OPENED handling - in that case we get error returned, with file
already hit by fput() *AND* FILE_OPENED not set. Guess what happens in
path_openat(), when it hits
if (!(opened & FILE_OPENED)) {
BUG_ON(!error);
put_filp(file);
}
The root cause of all that crap is that the callers of do_dentry_open()
have no way to tell which way did it fail; while that could be fixed up
(by passing something like int *opened to do_dentry_open() and have it
marked if we'd called ->open()), it's probably much too late in the
cycle to do so right now.

mm: fix the NULL mapping case in __isolate_lru_page()
mm/huge_memory.c: __split_huge_page() use atomic ClearPageDirty()
|

George Boole would have noticed a slight error in 4.16 commit
69d763fc6d3a ("mm: pin address_space before dereferencing it while
isolating an LRU page"). Fix it, to match both the comment above it,
and the original behaviour.
Although anonymous pages are not marked PageDirty at first, we have an
old habit of calling SetPageDirty when a page is removed from swap
cache: so there's a category of ex-swap pages that are easily
migratable, but were inadvertently excluded from compaction's async
migration in 4.16.

Swapping load on huge=always tmpfs (with khugepaged tuned up to be very
eager, but I'm not sure that is relevant) soon hung uninterruptibly,
waiting for page lock in shmem_getpage_gfp()'s find_lock_entry(), most
often when "cp -a" was trying to write to a smallish file. Debug showed
that the page in question was not locked, and page->mapping NULL by now,
but page->index consistent with having been in a huge page before.
Reproduced in minutes on a 4.15 kernel, even with 4.17's 605ca5ede764
("mm/huge_memory.c: reorder operations in __split_huge_page_tail()") added
in; but took hours to reproduce on a 4.17 kernel (no idea why).
The culprit proved to be the __ClearPageDirty() on tails beyond i_size in
__split_huge_page(): the non-atomic __bitoperation may have been safe when
4.8's baa355fd3314 ("thp: file pages support for split_huge_page()")
introduced it, but liable to erase PageWaiters after 4.10's 62906027091f

====================
pull-request: bpf 2018-06-02
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.
The main changes are:
1) BPF uapi fix in struct bpf_prog_info and struct bpf_map_info in
order to fix offsets on 32 bit archs.
This will have a minor merge conflict with net-next which has the
__u32 gpl_compatible:1 bitfield in struct bpf_prog_info at this
location. Resolution is to use the gpl_compatible member.

In 64 bit, we have a 4 byte hole between ifindex and netns_dev in the
case of struct bpf_map_info but also struct bpf_prog_info. In net-next
commit b85fab0e67b ("bpf: Add gpl_compatible flag to struct bpf_prog_info")
added a bitfield into it to expose some flags related to programs. Thus,
add an unnamed __u32 bitfield for both so that alignment keeps the same
in both 32 and 64 bit cases, and can be naturally extended from there
as in b85fab0e67b.
Before:
# file test.o
test.o: ELF 32-bit LSB relocatable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped
# pahole test.o

After commit f6cc9c054e77, the following conf is broken (note that the
default loopback mtu is 65536, ie IP_MAX_MTU + 1):
$ ip tunnel add gre1 mode gre local 10.125.0.1 remote 10.125.0.2 dev lo
add tunnel "gre0" failed: Invalid argument
$ ip l a type dummy
$ ip l s dummy1 up
$ ip l s dummy1 mtu 65535
$ ip tunnel add gre1 mode gre local 10.125.0.1 remote 10.125.0.2 dev dummy1
add tunnel "gre0" failed: Invalid argument
dev_set_mtu() doesn't allow to set a mtu which is too large.
First, let's cap the mtu returned by ip_tunnel_bind_dev(). Second, remove
the magic value 0xFFF8 and use IP_MAX_MTU instead.
0xFFF8 seems to be there for ages, I don't know why this value was used.
With a recent kernel, it's also possible to set a mtu > IP_MAX_MTU:
$ ip l s dummy1 mtu 66000
After that patch, it's also possible to bind an ip tunnel on that kind of
interface.

The previous code was optimistic, accepting the offload of whole action
chain when there was a single known action (drop/redirect). This results
in offloading a rule which should not be offloaded, because its behavior
cannot be reproduced in the hardware.
For example:
$ tc filter add dev eno1 parent ffff: protocol ip \
u32 ht 800: order 1 match tcp src 42 FFFF \
action mirred egress mirror dev enp1s16 pipe \
drop
The controller is unable to mirror the packet to a VF, but still
offloads the rule by dropping the packet.
Change the approach of the function to a pessimistic one, rejecting the
chain when an unknown action is found. This is better suited for future
extensions.
Note that both recognized actions always return TC_ACT_SHOT, therefore
it is safe to ignore actions behind them.
