commit 8a1f780e7f28c7c1d640118242cf68d528c456cd upstream.

online_{kernel|movable} is used to change the memory zone to
ZONE_{NORMAL|MOVABLE} and online the memory.

To check that memory zone can be changed, zone_can_shift() is used.
Currently the function returns minus integer value, plus integer
value and 0. When the function returns minus or plus integer value,
it means that the memory zone can be changed to ZONE_{NORNAL|MOVABLE}.

But when the function returns 0, there are two meanings.

One of the meanings is that the memory zone does not need to be changed.
For example, when memory is in ZONE_NORMAL and onlined by online_kernel
the memory zone does not need to be changed.

Another meaning is that the memory zone cannot be changed. When memory
is in ZONE_NORMAL and onlined by online_movable, the memory zone may
not be changed to ZONE_MOVALBE due to memory online limitation(see
Documentation/memory-hotplug.txt). In this case, memory must not be
onlined.

The patch changes the return type of zone_can_shift() so that memory
online operation fails when memory zone cannot be changed as follows:

Before applying patch:
   # grep -A 35 "Node 2" /proc/zoneinfo
   Node 2, zone   Normal
   &lt;snip&gt;
      node_scanned  0
           spanned  8388608
           present  7864320
           managed  7864320
   # echo online_movable &gt; memory4097/state
   # grep -A 35 "Node 2" /proc/zoneinfo
   Node 2, zone   Normal
   &lt;snip&gt;
      node_scanned  0
           spanned  8388608
           present  8388608
           managed  8388608

   online_movable operation succeeded. But memory is onlined as
   ZONE_NORMAL, not ZONE_MOVABLE.

After applying patch:
   # grep -A 35 "Node 2" /proc/zoneinfo
   Node 2, zone   Normal
   &lt;snip&gt;
      node_scanned  0
           spanned  8388608
           present  7864320
           managed  7864320
   # echo online_movable &gt; memory4097/state
   bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument
   # grep -A 35 "Node 2" /proc/zoneinfo
   Node 2, zone   Normal
   &lt;snip&gt;
      node_scanned  0

           present  7864320
           managed  7864320

   online_movable operation failed because of failure of changing
   the memory zone from ZONE_NORMAL to ZONE_MOVABLE

<title>nfs: Don't increment lock sequence ID after NFS4ERR_MOVED</title>

commit 059aa734824165507c65fd30a55ff000afd14983 upstream.

Xuan Qi reports that the Linux NFSv4 client failed to lock a file
that was migrated. The steps he observed on the wire:

1. The client sent a LOCK request to the source server
2. The source server replied NFS4ERR_MOVED
3. The client switched to the destination server
4. The client sent the same LOCK request to the destination
   server with a bumped lock sequence ID
5. The destination server rejected the LOCK request with
   NFS4ERR_BAD_SEQID

RFC 3530 section 8.1.5 provides a list of NFS errors which do not
bump a lock sequence ID.

However, RFC 3530 is now obsoleted by RFC 7530. In RFC 7530 section
9.1.7, this list has been updated by the addition of NFS4ERR_MOVED.

commit ea57485af8f4221312a5a95d63c382b45e7840dc upstream.

Patch series "fix premature OOM regression in 4.7+ due to cpuset races".

This is v2 of my attempt to fix the recent report based on LTP cpuset
stress test [1].  The intention is to go to stable 4.9 LTSS with this,
as triggering repeated OOMs is not nice.  That's why the patches try to
be not too intrusive.

Unfortunately why investigating I found that modifying the testcase to
use per-VMA policies instead of per-task policies will bring the OOM's
back, but that seems to be much older and harder to fix problem.  I have
posted a RFC [2] but I believe that fixing the recent regressions has a
higher priority.

Longer-term we might try to think how to fix the cpuset mess in a better
and less error prone way.  I was for example very surprised to learn,
that cpuset updates change not only task-&gt;mems_allowed, but also
nodemask of mempolicies.  Until now I expected the parameter to
alloc_pages_nodemask() to be stable.  I wonder why do we then treat
cpusets specially in get_page_from_freelist() and distinguish HARDWALL
etc, when there's unconditional intersection between mempolicy and
cpuset.  I would expect the nodemask adjustment for saving overhead in
g_p_f(), but that clearly doesn't happen in the current form.  So we
have both crazy complexity and overhead, AFAICS.

[2] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/7c459f26-13a6-a817-e508-b65b903a8378@suse.cz

This patch (of 4):

Since commit c33d6c06f60f ("mm, page_alloc: avoid looking up the first
zone in a zonelist twice") we have a wrong check for NULL preferred_zone,
which can theoretically happen due to concurrent cpuset modification.  We
check the zoneref pointer which is never NULL and we should check the zone
pointer.  Also document this in first_zones_zonelist() comment per Michal
Hocko.

Fixes: c33d6c06f60f ("mm, page_alloc: avoid looking up the first zone in a zonelist twice")

alloc_pages_nodemask() to be stable.  I wonder why do we then treat
cpusets specially in get_page_from_freelist() and distinguish HARDWALL
etc, when there's unconditional intersection between mempolicy and
cpuset.  I would expect the nodemask adjustment for saving overhead in
g_p_f(), but that clearly doesn't happen in the current form.  So we
have both crazy complexity and overhead, AFAICS.

This patch (of 4):

Since commit c33d6c06f60f ("mm, page_alloc: avoid looking up the first
zone in a zonelist twice") we have a wrong check for NULL preferred_zone,
which can theoretically happen due to concurrent cpuset modification.  We
check the zoneref pointer which is never NULL and we should check the zone
pointer.  Also document this in first_zones_zonelist() comment per Michal
Hocko.

<title>swiotlb: Add swiotlb=noforce debug option</title>

commit fff5d99225107f5f13fe4a9805adc2a1c4b5fb00 upstream.

On architectures like arm64, swiotlb is tied intimately to the core
architecture DMA support. In addition, ZONE_DMA cannot be disabled.

To aid debugging and catch devices not supporting DMA to memory outside
the 32-bit address space, add a kernel command line option
"swiotlb=noforce", which disables the use of bounce buffers.
If specified, trying to map memory that cannot be used with DMA will
fail, and a rate-limited warning will be printed.

Note that io_tlb_nslabs is set to 1, which is the minimal supported
value.

commit 546125d1614264d26080817d0c8cddb9b25081fa upstream.

The inet6addr_chain is an atomic notifier chain, so we can't call
anything that might sleep (like lock_sock)... instead of closing the
socket from svc_age_temp_xprts_now (which is called by the notifier
function), just have the rpc service threads do it instead.

<title>rcu: Narrow early boot window of illegal synchronous grace periods</title>

commit 52d7e48b86fc108e45a656d8e53e4237993c481d upstream.

The current preemptible RCU implementation goes through three phases
during bootup.  In the first phase, there is only one CPU that is running
with preemption disabled, so that a no-op is a synchronous grace period.
In the second mid-boot phase, the scheduler is running, but RCU has
not yet gotten its kthreads spawned (and, for expedited grace periods,
workqueues are not yet running.  During this time, any attempt to do
a synchronous grace period will hang the system (or complain bitterly,
depending).  In the third and final phase, RCU is fully operational and
everything works normally.

This has been OK for some time, but there has recently been some
synchronous grace periods showing up during the second mid-boot phase.
This code worked "by accident" for awhile, but started failing as soon
as expedited RCU grace periods switched over to workqueues in commit
8b355e3bc140 ("rcu: Drive expedited grace periods from workqueue").
Note that the code was buggy even before this commit, as it was subject
to failure on real-time systems that forced all expedited grace periods
to run as normal grace periods (for example, using the rcu_normal ksysfs
parameter).  The callchain from the failure case is as follows:

early_amd_iommu_init()
|-&gt; acpi_put_table(ivrs_base);
|-&gt; acpi_tb_put_table(table_desc);
|-&gt; acpi_tb_invalidate_table(table_desc);
|-&gt; acpi_tb_release_table(...)
|-&gt; acpi_os_unmap_memory
|-&gt; acpi_os_unmap_iomem
|-&gt; acpi_os_map_cleanup
|-&gt; synchronize_rcu_expedited

The kernel showing this callchain was built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y,
which caused the code to try using workqueues before they were
initialized, which did not go well.

This commit therefore reworks RCU to permit synchronous grace periods
to proceed during this mid-boot phase.  This commit is therefore a
fix to a regression introduced in v4.9, and is therefore being put
forward post-merge-window in v4.10.

This commit sets a flag from the existing rcu_scheduler_starting()
function which causes all synchronous grace periods to take the expedited
path.  The expedited path now checks this flag, using the requesting task
to drive the expedited grace period forward during the mid-boot phase.
Finally, this flag is updated by a core_initcall() function named
rcu_exp_runtime_mode(), which causes the runtime codepaths to be used.

Note that this arrangement assumes that tasks are not sent POSIX signals
(or anything similar) from the time that the first task is spawned
through core_initcall() time.
