     vmscan: fix do_try_to_free_pages() return value when priority==0 reclaim failure

At first impression, this seemed very strange because the above commit
only chenged function return value and hibernate_preallocate_memory()
ignore return value of shrink_all_memory().  But it's related.

Now, page allocation from hibernation code may enter infinite loop if the
system has highmem.  The reasons are that vmscan don't care enough OOM
case when oom_killer_disabled.

The problem sequence is following as.

1. hibernation
2. oom_disable
3. alloc_pages
4. do_try_to_free_pages
       if (scanning_global_lru(sc) && !all_unreclaimable)
               return 1;

If kswapd is not freozen, it would set zone->all_unreclaimable to 1 and
then shrink_zones maybe return true(ie, all_unreclaimable is true).  So at
last, alloc_pages could go to _nopage_.  If it is, it should have no
problem.

This patch adds all_unreclaimable check to protect in direct reclaim path,
too.  It can care of hibernation OOM case and help bailout
all_unreclaimable case slightly.

In an effort to minimize customer confusion we want to unify naming
convention for VMware-provided kernel modules.  This change renames the
balloon driver from vmware_ballon to vmw_balloon.

We expect to follow this naming convention (vmw_<module_name>) for all
modules that are part of mainline kernel and/or being distributed by
VMware, with the sole exception of vmxnet3 driver (since the name of
mainline driver happens to match with the name used in VMware Tools).

This fixes the regression caused by the commit 6fee48cd


("dma-mapping: arm: use generic pci_set_dma_mask and
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask").

ARM needs to clip the dma coherent mask for dmabounce devices. This
restores the old trick.

Note that strictly speaking, the DMA API doesn't allow architectures to do
such but I'm not sure it's worth adding the new API to set the dma mask
that allows architectures to clip it.

Commit 73296bc6

 ("procfs: Use generic_file_llseek in /proc/vmcore")
broke seeking on /proc/vmcore.  This changes it back to use default_llseek
in order to restore the original behaviour.

The problem with generic_file_llseek is that it only allows seeks up to
inode->i_sb->s_maxbytes, which is zero on procfs and some other virtual
file systems.  We should merge generic_file_llseek and default_llseek some
day and clean this up in a proper way, but for 2.6.35/36, reverting vmcore
is the safer solution.

A task's badness score is roughly a proportion of its rss and swap
compared to the system's capacity.  The scale ranges from 0 to 1000 with
the highest score chosen for kill.  Thus, this scale operates on a
resolution of 0.1% of RAM + swap.  Admin tasks are also given a 3% bonus,
so the badness score of an admin task using 3% of memory, for example,
would still be 0.

It's possible that an exceptionally large number of tasks will combine to
exhaust all resources but never have a single task that uses more than
0.1% of RAM and swap (or 3.0% for admin tasks).

This patch ensures that the badness score of any eligible task is never 0
so the machine doesn't unnecessarily panic because it cannot find a task
to kill.

In 32-bit compatibility mode, the error handling for
compat_do_readv_writev() may free an uninitialized pointer, potentially
leading to all sorts of ugly memory corruption.  This is reliably
triggerable by unprivileged users by invoking the readv()/writev()
syscalls with an invalid iovec pointer.  The below patch fixes this to
emulate the non-compat version.

  cciss: freeing uninitialized data on error path

Inodes of devices such as /dev/zero can get dirty for example via
utime(2) syscall or due to atime update. Backing device of such inodes
(zero_bdi, etc.) is however unable to handle dirty inodes and thus
__mark_inode_dirty complains.  In fact, inode should be rather dirtied
against backing device of the filesystem holding it. This is generally a
good rule except for filesystems such as 'bdev' or 'mtd_inodefs'. Inodes
in these pseudofilesystems are referenced from ordinary filesystem
inodes and carry mapping with real data of the device. Thus for these
inodes we have to use inode->i_mapping->backing_dev_info as we did so
far. We distinguish these filesystems by checking whether sb->s_bdi
points to a non-trivial backing device or not.

Example: Assume we have an ext3 filesystem on /dev/sda1 mounted on /.
There's a device inode A described by a path "/dev/sdb" on this
filesystem. This inode will be dirtied against backing device "8:0"
after this patch. bdev filesystem contains block device inode B coupled
with our inode A. When someone modifies a page of /dev/sdb, it's B that
gets dirtied and the dirtying happens against the backing device "8:16".
Thus both inodes get filed to a correct bdi list.

There's a situation where the nohz balancer will try to wake itself:

cpu-x is idle which is also ilb_cpu
got a scheduler tick during idle
and the nohz_kick_needed() in trigger_load_balance() checks for
rq_x->nr_running which might not be zero (because of someone waking a
task on this rq etc) and this leads to the situation of the cpu-x
sending a kick to itself.

And this can cause a lockup.

Avoid this by not marking ourself eligible for kicking.

The problem here is that we don't have bdi->dev information available when
thread does some IO.  Hence when dev_name() tries to access bdi->dev, it
crashes.

This problem does not happen if kernel threads are in root group as root
group is statically allocated at device initialization time and we don't
hit this piece of code.

Fix it by delaying the filling of major and minor number information of
device in blk_group.  Initially a blk_group is created with 0 as device
information and this information is filled later once some more IO comes
in from same group.

If another cpu does a very wide munmap() on the signal frame area,
it can tear down the page table hierarchy from underneath us.

I found this while working on a Linux agent for spice, the symptom I was
seeing was select blocking on the spice vdagent virtio serial port even
though there were messages queued up there.

virtio_console's port_fops_poll checks port->inbuf != NULL to determine
if read won't block. However if an application reads enough bytes from
inbuf through port_fops_read, to empty the current port->inbuf,
port->inbuf will be NULL even though there may be buffers left in the
virtqueue.

This causes poll() to block even though there is data to be read,
this patch fixes this by using will_read_block(port) instead of the
port->inbuf != NULL check.

check it so that the copy_from_user() doesn't overflow the buffer.

Also further down in the function, we assume that if
"param->u.wpa_associate.wpa_ie_len" is set then "abyWPAIE[0]" is
initialized.  To make that work, I changed the test here to say that if
"wpa_ie_len" is set then "wpa_ie" has to be a valid pointer or we return
-EINVAL.

Oddly, we only use the first element of the abyWPAIE[] array.  So I
suspect there may be some other issues in this function.

This reverts commit 96d592ed

.

The netfilter hook seems to be misused and may leak skbs in situations
when NF_HOOK returns NF_STOLEN. It may not filter everything as
expected. Also the ethernet bridge tables are not yet capable to
understand batman-adv packet correctly.

It was only added for testing purposes and can be removed again.
