Here's a pull request to add a new file to the kernel's Documentation directory.
It adds a short document describing the views of how the Linux kernel community
feels about enforcing the license of the kernel.
The patch has been reviewed by a large number of kernel developers already, as
seen by their acks on the patch, and their agreement of the statement with
their names on it. The location of the file was also agreed upon by the
Documentation maintainer, so all should be good there.
For some background information about this statement, see this article
written by some of the kernel developers involved in drafting it:
http://kroah.com/log/blog/2017/10/16/linux-kernel-community-enforcement-statement/
and this article that answers a number of questions that came up in the
discussion of this statement with the kernel developer community:
http://kroah.com/log/blog/2017/10/16/linux-kernel-community-enforcement-statement-faq/
If anyone has any further questions about it, please let me, and the TAB
members, know and we will be glad to help answer them.

# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sample-trace/enable
# rmmod trace-events-sample
This would cause an oops. The issue is that I added another trace
event sample that reused a reg function of another trace event to
create a thread to call the tracepoints. The problem was that the
reg function couldn't handle nested calls (reg; reg; unreg; unreg;)
and created two threads (instead of one) and only removed one
on exit.
This isn't a critical bug as the bug is only in sample code. But sample
code should be free of known bugs to prevent others from copying
it. This is why this is also marked for stable.

Commit 7496946a8 ("tracing: Add samples of DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS() and
DEFINE_EVENT()") added template examples for all the events. It created a
DEFINE_EVENT_FN() example which reused the foo_bar_reg and foo_bar_unreg
functions.
Enabling both the TRACE_EVENT_FN() and DEFINE_EVENT_FN() example trace
events caused the foo_bar_reg to be called twice, creating the test thread
twice. The foo_bar_unreg would remove it only once, even if it was called
multiple times, leaving a thread existing when the module is unloaded,
causing an oops.
Add a ref count and allow foo_bar_reg() and foo_bar_unreg() be called by
multiple trace events.

On CPUs like AMD's Geode, for example, we shouldn't even try to load
microcode because they do not support the modern microcode loading
interface.
However, we do the family check *after* the other checks whether the
loader has been disabled on the command line or whether we're running in
a guest.
So move the family checks first in order to exit early if we're being
loaded on an unsupported family.

Since commit:
94b1b03b51 ("x86/mm: Rework lazy TLB mode and TLB freshness tracking")
x86's lazy TLB mode has been all the way lazy: when running a kernel thread
(including the idle thread), the kernel keeps using the last user mm's
page tables without attempting to maintain user TLB coherence at all.
From a pure semantic perspective, this is fine -- kernel threads won't
attempt to access user pages, so having stale TLB entries doesn't matter.
Unfortunately, I forgot about a subtlety. By skipping TLB flushes,
we also allow any paging-structure caches that may exist on the CPU
to become incoherent. This means that we can have a
paging-structure cache entry that references a freed page table, and
the CPU is within its rights to do a speculative page walk starting
at the freed page table.
I can imagine this causing two different problems:
- A speculative page walk starting from a bogus page table could read
IO addresses. I haven't seen any reports of this causing problems.
- A speculative page walk that involves a bogus page table can install
garbage in the TLB. Such garbage would always be at a user VA, but
some AMD CPUs have logic that triggers a machine check when it notices
these bogus entries. I've seen a couple reports of this.
Boris further explains the failure mode:

To fix this, reinstate TLB coherence in lazy mode. With this patch
applied, we do it in one of two ways:
- If we have PCID, we simply switch back to init_mm's page tables
when we enter a kernel thread -- this seems to be quite cheap
except for the cost of serializing the CPU.
- If we don't have PCID, then we set a flag and switch to init_mm
the first time we would otherwise need to flush the TLB.
The /sys/kernel/debug/x86/tlb_use_lazy_mode debug switch can be changed
to override the default mode for benchmarking.
In theory, we could optimize this better by only flushing the TLB in
lazy CPUs when a page table is freed. Doing that would require
auditing the mm code to make sure that all page table freeing goes
through tlb_remove_page() as well as reworking some data structures
to implement the improved flush logic.

lib/Kconfig.debug: kernel hacking menu: runtime testing: keep tests together
mm/migrate: fix indexing bug (off by one) and avoid out of bound access
When the VMA based swap readahead was introduced, a new knob
/sys/kernel/mm/swap/vma_ra_max_order
was added as the max window of VMA swap readahead. This is to make it
possible to use different max window for VMA based readahead and
original physical readahead. But Minchan Kim pointed out that this will
cause a regression because setting page-cluster sysctl to zero cannot
disable swap readahead with the change.
To fix the regression, the page-cluster sysctl is used as the max window
of both the VMA based swap readahead and original physical swap
readahead. If more fine grained control is needed in the future, more
knobs can be added as the subordinate knobs of the page-cluster sysctl.
The vma_ra_max_order knob is deleted. Because the knob was introduced
in v4.14-rc1, and this patch is targeting being merged before v4.14
releasing, there should be no existing users of this newly added ABI.

Loading the pmd without holding the pmd_lock exposes us to races with
concurrent updaters of the page tables but, worse still, it also allows
the compiler to cache the pmd value in a register and reuse it later on,
even if we've performed a READ_ONCE in between and seen a more recent
value.
In the case of page_vma_mapped_walk, this leads to the following crash
when the pmd loaded for the initial pmd_trans_huge check is all zeroes
and a subsequent valid table entry is loaded by check_pmd. We then
proceed into map_pte, but the compiler re-uses the zero entry inside
pte_offset_map, resulting in a junk pointer being installed in
pvmw->pte:
PC is at check_pte+0x20/0x170

This patch fixes the problem by ensuring that READ_ONCE is used before
the initial checks on the pmd, and this value is subsequently used when
checking whether or not the pmd is present. pmd_check is removed and
the pmd_present check is inlined directly.

BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page)) in try_to_free_buffers(). This is because we
call clean_buffers() after unlocking the page we've written. Introduce
a new clean_page_buffers() which cleans all buffers associated with a

We have seen NULL-pointer dereference crashes in tty->disc_data when the
N_TTY fallback driver failed to open during hangup. The immediate cause
of this open to fail has been addressed in the preceding patch to
vmalloc(), but this code could be more robust.
As Alan pointed out in commit 8a8dabf2dd ("tty: handle the case where
we cannot restore a line discipline"), the N_TTY driver, historically
the safe fallback that could never fail, can indeed fail, but the
surrounding code is not prepared to handle this. To avoid crashes he
added a new N_NULL driver to take N_TTY's place as the last resort.
Hook that fallback up to the hangup path. Update tty_ldisc_reinit() to
reflect the reality that n_tty_open can indeed fail.

This reverts commits 5d17a73a2e ("vmalloc: back off when the current
task is killed") and 171012f561 ("mm: don't warn when vmalloc() fails
due to a fatal signal").
Commit 5d17a73a2e ("vmalloc: back off when the current task is
killed") made all vmalloc allocations from a signal-killed task fail.
We have seen crashes in the tty driver from this, where a killed task
exiting tries to switch back to N_TTY, fails n_tty_open because of the
vmalloc failing, and later crashes when dereferencing tty->disc_data.
Arguably, relying on a vmalloc() call to succeed in order to properly
exit a task is not the most robust way of doing things. There will be a
follow-up patch to the tty code to fall back to the N_NULL ldisc.
But the justification to make that vmalloc() call fail like this isn't
convincing, either. The patch mentions an OOM victim exhausting the
memory reserves and thus deadlocking the machine. But the OOM killer is
only one, improbable source of fatal signals. It doesn't make sense to
fail allocations preemptively with plenty of memory in most cases.
The patch doesn't mention real-life instances where vmalloc sites would
exhaust memory, which makes it sound more like a theoretical issue to
begin with. But just in case, the OOM access to memory reserves has
been restricted on the allocator side in cd04ae1e2d ("mm, oom: do not
rely on TIF_MEMDIE for memory reserves access"), which should take care
of any theoretical concerns on that front.
Revert this patch, and the follow-up that suppresses the allocation
warnings when we fail the allocations due to a signal.

cma_alloc() unconditionally prints an INFO message when the CMA
allocation fails. Make this message conditional on the non-presence of
__GFP_NOWARN in gfp_mask.
This patch aims at removing INFO messages that are displayed when the
VC4 driver tries to allocate buffer objects. From the driver
perspective an allocation failure is acceptable, and the driver can
possibly do something to make following allocation succeed (like
flushing the VC4 internal cache).

gcc on aarch64 may emit synbols of type 'n' if the kernel is built with
'-frecord-gcc-switches'. In most cases, those symbols are reported with
nm as
000000000000000e n $d
and with objdump as
0000000000000000 l d .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 .GCC.command.line
000000000000000e l .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 $d
Those symbols are detected in is_arm_mapping_symbol() and ignored.
However, if "--prefix-symbols=<prefix>" is configured as well, the
situation is different. For example, in efi/libstub, arm64 images are
built with
'--prefix-alloc-sections=.init --prefix-symbols=__efistub_'.
In combination with '-frecord-gcc-switches', the symbols are now reported
by nm as:
000000000000000e n __efistub_$d
and by objdump as:
0000000000000000 l d .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 .GCC.command.line
000000000000000e l .GCC.command.line 0000000000000000 __efistub_$d
Those symbols are no longer ignored and included in the base address
calculation. This results in a base address of 000000000000000e, which
in turn causes kallsyms to abort with
kallsyms failure:
relative symbol value 0xffffff900800a000 out of range in relative mode
The problem is seen in little endian arm64 builds with CONFIG_EFI
enabled and with '-frecord-gcc-switches' set in KCFLAGS.
Explicitly ignore symbols of type 'n' since those are clearly debug
symbols.

I was stress testing some backports and with high load, after some time,
the latest version of the selftest showed some false positive in
connection with the uffdio_copy_retry. This seems to fix it while still
exercising -EEXIST in the background transfer once in a while.
The fork child will quit after the last UFFDIO_COPY is run, so a
repeated UFFDIO_COPY may not return -EEXIST. This change restricts the
-EEXIST stress to the background transfer where the memory can't go away
from under it.
Also updated uffdio_zeropage, so the interface is consistent.

When I execute numactl -H (which reads /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/cpumap
and displays cpumask_of_node for each node), I get different result
on X86 and arm64. For each numa node, the former only displayed online
CPUs, and the latter displayed all possible CPUs. Unfortunately, both
Linux documentation and numactl manual have not described it clear.
I sent a mail to ask for help, and Michal Hocko replied that he
preferred to print online cpus because it doesn't really make much sense
to bind anything on offline nodes.
Will said:
"I suspect the vast majority (if not all) code that reads this file was
developed for x86, so having the same behaviour for arm64 sounds like
something we should do ASAP before people try to special case with
things like #ifdef __aarch64__. I'd rather have this in 4.14 if
possible."
