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.

The kernel syslog contains debugging information that is often useful
during exploitation of other vulnerabilities, such as kernel heap
addresses. Rather than futilely attempt to sanitize hundreds (or
thousands) of printk statements and simultaneously cripple useful
debugging functionality, it is far simpler to create an option that
prevents unprivileged users from reading the syslog.
This patch, loosely based on grsecurity's GRKERNSEC_DMESG, creates the
dmesg_restrict sysctl. When set to "0", the default, no restrictions are
enforced. When set to "1", only users with CAP_SYS_ADMIN can read the
kernel syslog via dmesg(8) or other mechanisms.

Using a special version of atomic_inc_not_zero() giving this hint can help
processor to use less bus transactions.

because "lock cmpxchg" issues an RFO (Read For Ownership)

When using early debugging, the kernel does not initialize the
hw_breakpoint API early enough and causes the late initialization of
the kernel debugger to fail. The boot arguments are:
earlyprintk=vga ekgdboc=kbd kgdbwait
Then simply type "go" at the kdb prompt and boot. The kernel will
later emit the message:
kgdb: Could not allocate hwbreakpoints
And at that point the kernel debugger will cease to work correctly.
The solution is to initialize the hw_breakpoint at the same time that
all the other perf call backs are initialized instead of using a
core_initcall() initialization which happens well after the kernel
debugger can make use of hardware breakpoints.

The NF_HOOK_COND returns 0 when it shouldn't due to what I believe to be an
error in the code as the order of operations is not what was intended. C will
evalutate == before =. Which means ret is getting set to the bool result,
rather than the return value of the function call. The code says
if (ret = function() == 1)
when it meant to say:
if ((ret = function()) == 1)
Normally the compiler would warn, but it doesn't notice it because its
a actually complex conditional and so the wrong code is wrapped in an explict
set of () [exactly what the compiler wants you to do if this was intentional].
Fixing this means that errors when netfilter denies a packet get propagated
back up the stack rather than lost.

Currently we consider a sched domain to be well balanced when the imbalance
is less than the domain's imablance_pct. As the number of cores and threads
are increasing, current values of imbalance_pct (for example 25% for a
NUMA domain) are not enough to detect imbalances like:
a) On a WSM-EP system (two sockets, each having 6 cores and 12 logical threads),
24 cpu-hogging tasks get scheduled as 13 on one socket and 11 on another
socket. Leading to an idle HT cpu.
b) On a hypothetial 2 socket NHM-EX system (each socket having 8 cores and
16 logical threads), 16 cpu-hogging tasks can get scheduled as 9 on one
socket and 7 on another socket. Leaving one core in a socket idle
whereas in another socket we have a core having both its HT siblings busy.
While this issue can be fixed by decreasing the domain's imbalance_pct
(by making it a function of number of logical cpus in the domain), it
can potentially cause more task migrations across sched groups in an
overloaded case.
Fix this by using imbalance_pct only during newly_idle and busy
load balancing. And during idle load balancing, check if there
is an imbalance in number of idle cpu's across the busiest and this
sched_group or if the busiest group has more tasks than its weight that
the idle cpu in this_group can pull.

This patch corrects time tracking in samples. Without this patch
both time_enabled and time_running are bogus when user asks for
PERF_SAMPLE_READ.
One uses PERF_SAMPLE_READ to sample the values of other counters
in each sample. Because of multiplexing, it is necessary to know
both time_enabled, time_running to be able to scale counts correctly.
In this second version of the patch, we maintain a shadow
copy of ctx->time which allows us to compute ctx->time without
calling update_context_time() from NMI context. We avoid the
issue that update_context_time() must always be called with
ctx->lock held.
We do not keep shadow copies of the other event timings
because if the lead event is overflowing then it is active
and thus it's been scheduled in via event_sched_in() in
which case neither tstamp_stopped, tstamp_running can be modified.
This timing logic only applies to samples when PERF_SAMPLE_READ
is used.
Note that this patch does not address timing issues related
to sampling inheritance between tasks. This will be addressed
in a future patch.
With this patch, the libpfm4 example task_smpl now reports

The alignment used for reading data into or out of pages used to be taken
from the data_off field in the message header. This only worked as long
as the page alignment matched the object offset, breaking direct io to
non-page aligned offsets.
Instead, explicitly specify the page alignment next to the page vector
in the ceph_msg struct, and use that instead of the message header (which
probably shouldn't be trusted). The alloc_msg callback is responsible for
filling in this field properly when it sets up the page vector.

SFI provides a series of tables. These describe the platform devices present
including SPI and I²C devices, as well as various sensors, keypads and other
glue as well as interfaces provided via the SCU IPC mechanism (intel_scu_ipc.c)
This patch is a merge of the core elements and relevant fixes from the
Intel development code by Feng, Alek, myself into a single coherent patch
for upstream submission.
It provides the needed infrastructure to register I2C, SPI and platform devices
described by the tables, as well as handlers for some of the hardware already
supported in kernel. The 0.8 firmware also provides GPIO tables.
Devices are created at boot time or if they are SCU dependant at the point an
SCU is discovered. The existing Linux device mechanisms will then handle the
device binding. At an abstract level this is an SFI to Linux device translator.
Device/platform specific setup/glue is in this file. This is done so that the
drivers for the generic I²C and SPI bus devices remain cross platform as they
should.

simply be removed by pushing the trace calls down into the functions in

- rename kmem_cache_alloc_notrace() to kmem_cache_alloc_trace() to
indicate that now is does have tracing. (maybe this would better being
called something like kmalloc_kmem_cache ?)
- adds a new function kmalloc_order() to handle allocation and tracing
of large allocations of page order.
- removes tracing from the inlined kmalloc_large() replacing them with a
call to kmalloc_order();
- move tracing out of inlined kmalloc_node() and pushing it down into
kmem_cache_alloc_node_trace
- rename kmem_cache_alloc_node_notrace() to
