RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:
- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
page lock to follow page->mapping.
The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.
In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.
The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.

At __mem_cgroup_try_charge(), VM_BUG_ON(!mm->owner) is checked.
But as commented in mem_cgroup_from_task(), mm->owner can be NULL
in some racy case. This check of VM_BUG_ON() is bad.
A possible story to hit this is at swapoff()->try_to_unuse(). It passes
mm_struct to mem_cgroup_try_charge_swapin() while mm->owner is NULL. If we
can't get proper mem_cgroup from swap_cgroup information, mm->owner is used
as charge target and we see NULL.

Currently the operations to increment vm counters must disable interrupts
in order to not mess up their housekeeping of counters.
So use this_cpu_cmpxchg() to avoid the overhead. Since we can no longer
count on preremption being disabled we still have some minor issues.
The fetching of the counter thresholds is racy.
A threshold from another cpu may be applied if we happen to be
rescheduled on another cpu. However, the following vmstat operation
will then bring the counter again under the threshold limit.
The operations for __xxx_zone_state are not changed since the caller
has taken care of the synchronization needs (and therefore the cycle
count is even less than the optimized version for the irq disable case
provided here).
The optimization using this_cpu_cmpxchg will only be used if the arch
supports efficient this_cpu_ops (must have CONFIG_CMPXCHG_LOCAL set!)
The use of this_cpu_cmpxchg reduces the cycle count for the counter
operations by %80 (inc_zone_page_state goes from 170 cycles to 32).

__get_cpu_var() can be replaced with this_cpu_read and will then use a

correct per cpu instance.
However, the address of a per cpu variable passed to __this_cpu_read()
cannot be determined (since it's an implied address conversion through
segment prefixes). Therefore apply this only to uses of __get_cpu_var
where the address of the variable is not used.

The install_special_mapping routine (used, for example, to setup the
vdso) skips the security check before insert_vm_struct, allowing a local
attacker to bypass the mmap_min_addr security restriction by limiting
the available pages for special mappings.
bprm_mm_init() also skips the check, and although I don't think this can
be used to bypass any restrictions, I don't see any reason not to have

PM / Hibernate: Fix memory corruption related to swap
PM / Hibernate: Use async I/O when reading compressed hibernation image
There is a problem that swap pages allocated before the creation of
a hibernation image can be released and used for storing the contents
of different memory pages while the image is being saved. Since the
kernel stored in the image doesn't know of that, it causes memory
corruption to occur after resume from hibernation, especially on
systems with relatively small RAM that need to swap often.
This issue can be addressed by keeping the GFP_IOFS bits clear
in gfp_allowed_mask during the entire hibernation, including the
saving of the image, until the system is finally turned off or
the hibernation is aborted. Unfortunately, for this purpose
it's necessary to rework the way in which the hibernate and
suspend code manipulates gfp_allowed_mask.
This change is based on an earlier patch from Hugh Dickins.

On stock 2.6.37-rc4, running:
# mount lilith:/export /mnt/lilith
# find /mnt/lilith/ -type f -print0 | xargs -0 file
crashes the machine fairly quickly under Xen. Often it results in oops
messages, but the couple of times I tried just now, it just hung quietly
and made Xen print some rude messages:
(XEN) mm.c:2389:d80 Bad type (saw 7400000000000001 != exp
3000000000000000) for mfn 1d7058 (pfn 18fa7)
(XEN) mm.c:964:d80 Attempt to create linear p.t. with write perms
(XEN) mm.c:2389:d80 Bad type (saw 7400000000000010 != exp

(XEN) mm.c:2965:d80 Error while pinning mfn 1d2e04
Which means the domain tried to map a pagetable page RW, which would
allow it to map arbitrary memory, so Xen stopped it. This is because
vm_unmap_ram() left some pages mapped in the vmalloc area after NFS had
finished with them, and those pages got recycled as pagetable pages
while still having these RW aliases.
Removing those mappings immediately removes the Xen-visible aliases, and
so it has no problem with those pages being reused as pagetable pages.
Deferring the TLB flush doesn't upset Xen because it can flush the TLB
itself as needed to maintain its invariants.
When unmapping a region in the vmalloc space, clear the ptes
immediately. There's no point in deferring this because there's no
amortization benefit.
The TLBs are left dirty, and they are flushed lazily to amortize the
cost of the IPIs.
This specific motivation for this patch is an oops-causing regression
since 2.6.36 when using NFS under Xen, triggered by the NFS client's use
of vm_map_ram() introduced in 56e4ebf877 ("NFS: readdir with vmapped
pages") . XFS also uses vm_map_ram() and could cause similar problems.

Swap accounting can be configured by CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP
configuration option and then it is turned on by default. There is a boot
option (noswapaccount) which can disable this feature.
This makes it hard for distributors to enable the configuration option as
this feature leads to a bigger memory consumption and this is a no-go for
general purpose distribution kernel. On the other hand swap accounting
may be very usuful for some workloads.
This patch adds a new configuration option which controls the default
behavior (CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP_ENABLED). If the option is selected
then the feature is turned on by default.
It also adds a new boot parameter swapaccount[=1|0] which enhances the

__mem_cgroup_try_charge() can be called under down_write(&mmap_sem)(e.g.
mlock does it). This means it can cause deadlock if it races with move charge:
Ex.1)
move charge | try charge
--------------------------------------+------------------------------
mem_cgroup_can_attach() | down_write(&mmap_sem)
mc.moving_task = current | ..
mem_cgroup_precharge_mc() | __mem_cgroup_try_charge()
mem_cgroup_count_precharge() | prepare_to_wait()
down_read(&mmap_sem) | if (mc.moving_task)
-> cannot aquire the lock | -> true
| schedule()
Ex.2)
move charge | try charge
--------------------------------------+------------------------------
mem_cgroup_can_attach() |
mc.moving_task = current |
mem_cgroup_precharge_mc() |
mem_cgroup_count_precharge() |
down_read(&mmap_sem) |
.. |
up_read(&mmap_sem) |
| down_write(&mmap_sem)
mem_cgroup_move_task() | ..
mem_cgroup_move_charge() | __mem_cgroup_try_charge()
down_read(&mmap_sem) | prepare_to_wait()
-> cannot aquire the lock | if (mc.moving_task)
| -> true
| schedule()
To avoid this deadlock, we do all the move charge works (both can_attach() and
attach()) under one mmap_sem section.
And after this patch, we set/clear mc.moving_task outside mc.lock, because we
use the lock only to check mc.from/to.

Depending on processor speed, page size, and the amount of memory a
process is allowed to amass, cleanup of a large VM may freeze the system
for many seconds. This can result in a watchdog timeout.
Make sure other tasks receive some service when cleaning up large VMs.

Salman Qazi describes the following radix-tree bug:
In the following case, we get can get a deadlock:
0. The radix tree contains two items, one has the index 0.
1. The reader (in this case find_get_pages) takes the rcu_read_lock.
2. The reader acquires slot(s) for item(s) including the index 0 item.
3. The non-zero index item is deleted, and as a consequence the other item is
moved to the root of the tree. The place where it used to be is queued for
deletion after the readers finish.
3b. The zero item is deleted, removing it from the direct slot, it remains in
the rcu-delayed indirect node.
4. The reader looks at the index 0 slot, and finds that the page has 0 ref
count
5. The reader looks at it again, hoping that the item will either be freed or
the ref count will increase. This never happens, as the slot it is looking
at will never be updated. Also, this slot can never be reclaimed because
the reader is holding rcu_read_lock and is in an infinite loop.
The fix is to re-use the same "indirect" pointer case that requires a slot
lookup retry into a general "retry the lookup" bit.

if all pages are clean, both them will be zero. In this case, we should

70 hours into some stress tests of a 2.6.32-based enterprise kernel, we
ran into a NULL dereference in here:
int block_is_partially_uptodate(struct page *page, read_descriptor_t *desc,
unsigned long from)
{
----> struct inode *inode = page->mapping->host;
It looks like page->mapping was the culprit. (xmon trace is below).
After closer examination, I realized that do_generic_file_read() does a
find_get_page(), and eventually locks the page before calling
block_is_partially_uptodate(). However, it doesn't revalidate the
page->mapping after the page is locked. So, there's a small window
between the find_get_page() and ->is_partially_uptodate() where the page
could get truncated and page->mapping cleared.
We _have_ a reference, so it can't get reclaimed, but it certainly
can be truncated.
I think the correct thing is to check page->mapping after the
trylock_page(), and jump out if it got truncated. This patch has been
running in the test environment for a month or so now, and we have not
seen this bug pop up again.

As pointed out by Linus, commit dab5855 ("perf_counter: Add mmap event hooks to
mprotect()") is fundamentally wrong as mprotect_fixup() can free 'vma' due to
merging. Fix the problem by moving perf_event_mmap() hook to
mprotect_fixup().
Note: there's another successful return path from mprotect_fixup() if old
flags equal to new flags. We don't, however, need to call
perf_event_mmap() there because 'perf' already knows the VMA is
executable.

Normal syscall audit doesn't catch 5th argument of syscall. It also
doesn't catch the contents of userland structures pointed to be
syscall argument, so for both old and new mmap(2) ABI it doesn't
