[ Upstream commit 59b9997baba5242997ddc7bd96b1391f5275a5a4 ]
This reverts commit 8a83a00b0735190384a348156837918271034144.
It causes regressions for S390 devices, because it does an
unconditional DST drop on SKBs for vlans and the QETH device
needs the neighbour entry hung off the DST for certain things
on transmit.
Arnd can't remember exactly why he even needed this change.

[ Upstream commit 0c1833797a5a6ec23ea9261d979aa18078720b74 ]
Since commit ad0081e43a
"ipv6: Fragment locally generated tunnel-mode IPSec6 packets as needed"
the fragment of packets is incorrect.
because tunnel mode needs IPsec headers and trailer for all fragments,
while on transport mode it is sufficient to add the headers to the
first fragment and the trailer to the last.
so modify mtu and maxfraglen base on ipsec mode and if fragment is first
or last.
with my test,it work well(every fragment's size is the mtu)
and does not trigger slow fragment path.
Changes from v1:
though optimization, mtu_prev and maxfraglen_prev can be delete.
replace xfrm mode codes with dst_entry's new frag DST_XFRM_TUNNEL.
add fuction ip6_append_data_mtu to make codes clearer.

commit 26c191788f18129af0eb32a358cdaea0c7479626 upstream.
When holding the mmap_sem for reading, pmd_offset_map_lock should only
run on a pmd_t that has been read atomically from the pmdp pointer,
otherwise we may read only half of it leading to this crash.

This should be a longstanding bug affecting x86 32bit PAE without THP.
Only archs with 64bit large pmd_t and 32bit unsigned long should be
affected.
With THP enabled the barrier() in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad()
would partly hide the bug when the pmd transition from none to stable,
by forcing a re-read of the *pmd in pmd_offset_map_lock, but when THP is
enabled a new set of problem arises by the fact could then transition
freely in any of the none, pmd_trans_huge or pmd_trans_stable states.
So making the barrier in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad()
unconditional isn't good idea and it would be a flakey solution.
This should be fully fixed by introducing a pmd_read_atomic that reads
the pmd in order with THP disabled, or by reading the pmd atomically
with cmpxchg8b with THP enabled.
Luckily this new race condition only triggers in the places that must
already be covered by pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() so the fix
is localized there but this bug is not related to THP.
NOTE: this can trigger on x86 32bit systems with PAE enabled with more
than 4G of ram, otherwise the high part of the pmd will never risk to be
truncated because it would be zero at all times, in turn so hiding the
SMP race.
This bug was discovered and fully debugged by Ulrich, quote:
----
[..]
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() loads the content of edx and
eax.
496 static inline int pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(pmd_t
*pmd)
497 {
498 /* depend on compiler for an atomic pmd read */
499 pmd_t pmdval = *pmd;
// edi = pmd pointer
0xc0507a74 <sys_mincore+548>: mov 0x8(%esp),%edi

// edx = PTE page table high address

// eax = PTE page table low address

[..]
Please note that the PMD is not read atomically. These are two "mov"
instructions where the high order bits of the PMD entry are fetched
first. Hence, the above machine code is prone to the following race.
- The PMD entry {high|low} is 0x0000000000000000.
The "mov" at 0xc0507a84 loads 0x00000000 into edx.
- A page fault (on another CPU) sneaks in between the two "mov"
instructions and instantiates the PMD.
- The PMD entry {high|low} is now 0x00000003fda38067.
The "mov" at 0xc0507a8e loads 0xfda38067 into eax.

commit bbbc4c4d8c5face097d695f9bf3a39647ba6b7e7 upstream.
Commit 06e8935feb ("optimized SDIO IRQ handling for single irq")
introduced some spurious calls to SDIO function interrupt handlers,
such as when the SDIO IRQ thread is started, or the safety check
performed upon a system resume. Let's add a flag to perform the
optimization only when a real interrupt is signaled by the host
driver and we know there is no point confirming it.

commit 080399aaaf3531f5b8761ec0ac30ff98891e8686 upstream.
Hi,
We have a bug report open where a squashfs image mounted on ppc64 would
exhibit errors due to trying to read beyond the end of the disk. It can
easily be reproduced by doing the following:

Squashfs manages to read in the end block(s) of the disk during the
mount operation. Then, when dd reads the block device, it leads to
block_read_full_page being called with buffers that are beyond end of
disk, but are marked as mapped. Thus, it would end up submitting read
I/O against them, resulting in the errors mentioned above. I fixed the
problem by modifying init_page_buffers to only set the buffer mapped if
it fell inside of i_size.
Cheers,
Jeff

commit 05c69d298c96703741cac9a5cbbf6c53bd55a6e2 upstream.
6d1d8050b4bc8 "block, partition: add partition_meta_info to hd_struct"
added part_unpack_uuid() which assumes that the passed in buffer has
enough space for sprintfing "%pU" - 37 characters including '\0'.
Unfortunately, b5af921ec0233 "init: add support for root devices
specified by partition UUID" supplied 33 bytes buffer to the function
leading to the following panic with stackprotector enabled.

commit 5b6e9bcdeb65634b4ad604eb4536404bbfc62cfa upstream.
Commit 4231d47e6fe69f061f96c98c30eaf9fb4c14b96d(net/usbnet: avoid
recursive locking in usbnet_stop()) fixes the recursive locking
problem by releasing the skb queue lock before unlink, but may
cause skb traversing races:
- after URB is unlinked and the queue lock is released,
the refered skb and skb->next may be moved to done queue,
even be released
- in skb_queue_walk_safe, the next skb is still obtained
by next pointer of the last skb
- so maybe trigger oops or other problems
This patch extends the usage of entry->state to describe 'start_unlink'
state, so always holding the queue(rx/tx) lock to change the state if
the referd skb is in rx or tx queue because we need to know if the
refered urb has been started unlinking in unlink_urbs.
The other part of this patch is based on Huajun's patch:
always traverse from head of the tx/rx queue to get skb which is
to be unlinked but not been started unlinking.

commit 2f624278626677bfaf73fef97f86b37981621f5c upstream.
We really need to use a ACCESS_ONCE() on the sequence value read in
__read_seqcount_begin(), because otherwise the compiler might end up
reloading the value in between the test and the return of it. As a
result, it might end up returning an odd value (which means that a write
is in progress).
If the reader is then fast enough that that odd value is still the
current one when the read_seqcount_retry() is done, we might end up with
a "successful" read sequence, even despite the concurrent write being
active.
In practice this probably never really happens - there just isn't
anything else going on around the read of the sequence count, and the
common case is that we end up having a read barrier immediately
afterwards.
So the code sequence in which gcc might decide to reaload from memory is
small, and there's no reason to believe it would ever actually do the
reload. But if the compiler ever were to decide to do so, it would be
incredibly annoying to debug. Let's just make sure.

commit 9883035ae7edef3ec62ad215611cb8e17d6a1a5d upstream.
The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about
individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that
as a special packetized mode.
When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by
Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous
writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own. The pipe
buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn
will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw
away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer).
End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that
the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a
packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at
a time. You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is
sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway),
and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of
the packet.
NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and
writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops. Also note that big packets will
currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that
happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF).
Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to
explicitly support bigger packets some day.
The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface,
allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes
(which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes). But user
space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will
fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface.

commit 151b61284776be2d6f02d48c23c3625678960b97 upstream.
This patch (as1545) fixes a problem affecting several ASUS computers:
The machine crashes or corrupts memory when going into suspend if the
ehci-hcd driver is bound to any controllers. Users have been forced
to unbind or unload ehci-hcd before putting their systems to sleep.
After extensive testing, it was determined that the machines don't
like going into suspend when any EHCI controllers are in the PCI D3
power state. Presumably this is a firmware bug, but there's nothing
we can do about it except to avoid putting the controllers in D3
during system sleep.
The patch adds a new flag to indicate whether the problem is present,
and avoids changing the controller's power state if the flag is set.
Runtime suspend is unaffected; this matters only for system suspend.
However as a side effect, the controller will not respond to remote
wakeup requests while the system is asleep. Hence USB wakeup is not
functional -- but of course, this is already true in the current state
of affairs.
This fixes Bugzilla #42728.

commit 32f6daad4651a748a58a3ab6da0611862175722f upstream.
We've been adding new mappings, but not destroying old mappings.
This can lead to a page leak as pages are pinned using
get_user_pages, but only unpinned with put_page if they still
exist in the memslots list on vm shutdown. A memslot that is
destroyed while an iommu domain is enabled for the guest will
therefore result in an elevated page reference count that is
never cleared.
Additionally, without this fix, the iommu is only programmed
with the first translation for a gpa. This can result in
peer-to-peer errors if a mapping is destroyed and replaced by a
new mapping at the same gpa as the iommu will still be pointing
to the original, pinned memory address.

[ This combines upstream commit
2f53384424251c06038ae612e56231b96ab610ee and the follow-on bug fix
commit 35f9c09fe9c72eb8ca2b8e89a593e1c151f28fc2 ]
vmsplice()/splice(pipe, socket) call do_tcp_sendpages() one page at a
time, adding at most 4096 bytes to an skb. (assuming PAGE_SIZE=4096)
The call to tcp_push() at the end of do_tcp_sendpages() forces an
immediate xmit when pipe is not already filled, and tso_fragment() try
to split these skb to MSS multiples.
4096 bytes are usually split in a skb with 2 MSS, and a remaining
sub-mss skb (assuming MTU=1500)
This makes slow start suboptimal because many small frames are sent to
qdisc/driver layers instead of big ones (constrained by cwnd and packets
in flight of course)
In fact, applications using sendmsg() (adding an additional memory copy)
instead of vmsplice()/splice()/sendfile() are a bit faster because of
this anomaly, especially if serving small files in environments with
large initial [c]wnd.
Call tcp_push() only if MSG_MORE is not set in the flags parameter.
This bit is automatically provided by splice() internals but for the
last page, or on all pages if user specified SPLICE_F_MORE splice()
flag.
In some workloads, this can reduce number of sent logical packets by an
order of magnitude, making zero-copy TCP actually faster than
one-copy :)

0. # hciattach -n /dev/ttyO1 any noflow
1. hci_dev_open called from hci_power_on grabs req lock
2. hci_init_req executes but device fails to initialise (times out
eventually)
3. hci_dev_open is called from hci_sock_ioctl and sleeps on req lock
4. hci_uart_tty_close calls hci_dev_unregister and sleeps on req lock in
hci_dev_do_close
5. hci_dev_open (1) releases req lock
6. hci_dev_do_close grabs req lock and returns as device is not up
7. hci_dev_unregister sleeps in destroy_workqueue
8. hci_dev_open (3) grabs req lock, calls hci_init_req and eventually sleeps
9. hci_dev_unregister finishes, while hci_dev_open is still running...

commit 9993bc635d01a6ee7f6b833b4ee65ce7c06350b1 upstream.
When a machine boots up, the TSC generally gets reset. However,
when kexec is used to boot into a kernel, the TSC value would be
carried over from the previous kernel. The computation of
cycns_offset in set_cyc2ns_scale is prone to an overflow, if the
machine has been up more than 208 days prior to the kexec. The
overflow happens when we multiply *scale, even though there is
enough room to store the final answer.
We fix this issue by decomposing tsc_now into the quotient and
remainder of division by CYC2NS_SCALE_FACTOR and then performing
the multiplication separately on the two components.
Refactor code to share the calculation with the previous
fix in __cycles_2_ns().

commit 3751d3e85cf693e10e2c47c03c8caa65e171099b upstream.
There has long been a limitation using software breakpoints with a
kernel compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA going back to 2.6.26. For
this particular patch, it will apply cleanly and has been tested all
the way back to 2.6.36.
The kprobes code uses the text_poke() function which accommodates
writing a breakpoint into a read-only page. The x86 kgdb code can
solve the problem similarly by overriding the default breakpoint
set/remove routines and using text_poke() directly.
The x86 kgdb code will first attempt to use the traditional
probe_kernel_write(), and next try using a the text_poke() function.
The break point install method is tracked such that the correct break
point removal routine will get called later on.

commit 98b54aa1a2241b59372468bd1e9c2d207bdba54b upstream.
There is extra state information that needs to be exposed in the
kgdb_bpt structure for tracking how a breakpoint was installed. The
debug_core only uses the the probe_kernel_write() to install
breakpoints, but this is not enough for all the archs. Some arch such
as x86 need to use text_poke() in order to install a breakpoint into a
read only page.
Passing the kgdb_bpt structure to kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint() and
kgdb_arch_remove_breakpoint() allows other archs to set the type
variable which indicates how the breakpoint was installed.

commit 1631fcea8399da5e80a80084b3b8c5bfd99d21e7 upstream.
<asm-generic/unistd.h> was set up to use sys_sendfile() for the 32-bit
compat API instead of sys_sendfile64(), but in fact the right thing to
do is to use sys_sendfile64() in all cases. The 32-bit sendfile64() API
in glibc uses the sendfile64 syscall, so it has to be capable of doing
full 64-bit operations. But the sys_sendfile() kernel implementation
has a MAX_NON_LFS test in it which explicitly limits the offset to 2^32.
So, we need to use the sys_sendfile64() implementation in the kernel
for this case.

commit ce880cb860f36694d2cdebfac9e6ae18176fe4c4 upstream.
The USB graphics card driver delays the unregistering of the framebuffer
device to a workqueue, which breaks the userspace visible remove uevent
sequence. Recent userspace tools started to support USB graphics card
hotplug out-of-the-box and rely on proper events sent by the kernel.
The framebuffer device is a direct child of the USB interface which is
removed immediately after the USB .disconnect() callback. But the fb device
in /sys stays around until its final cleanup, at a time where all the parent
devices have been removed already.
To work around that, we remove the sysfs fb device directly in the USB
.disconnect() callback and leave only the cleanup of the internal fb
data to the delayed work.

commit 1a5a9906d4e8d1976b701f889d8f35d54b928f25 upstream.
In some cases it may happen that pmd_none_or_clear_bad() is called with
the mmap_sem hold in read mode. In those cases the huge page faults can
allocate hugepmds under pmd_none_or_clear_bad() and that can trigger a
false positive from pmd_bad() that will not like to see a pmd
materializing as trans huge.
It's not khugepaged causing the problem, khugepaged holds the mmap_sem
in write mode (and all those sites must hold the mmap_sem in read mode
to prevent pagetables to go away from under them, during code review it
seems vm86 mode on 32bit kernels requires that too unless it's
restricted to 1 thread per process or UP builds). The race is only with
the huge pagefaults that can convert a pmd_none() into a
pmd_trans_huge().
Effectively all these pmd_none_or_clear_bad() sites running with
mmap_sem in read mode are somewhat speculative with the page faults, and
the result is always undefined when they run simultaneously. This is
probably why it wasn't common to run into this. For example if the
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) runs zap_page_range() shortly before the page
fault, the hugepage will not be zapped, if the page fault runs first it
will be zapped.
Altering pmd_bad() not to error out if it finds hugepmds won't be enough
to fix this, because zap_pmd_range would then proceed to call
zap_pte_range (which would be incorrect if the pmd become a
pmd_trans_huge()).
The simplest way to fix this is to read the pmd in the local stack
(regardless of what we read, no need of actual CPU barriers, only
compiler barrier needed), and be sure it is not changing under the code
that computes its value. Even if the real pmd is changing under the
value we hold on the stack, we don't care. If we actually end up in
zap_pte_range it means the pmd was not none already and it was not huge,
and it can't become huge from under us (khugepaged locking explained
above).
All we need is to enforce that there is no way anymore that in a code
path like below, pmd_trans_huge can be false, but pmd_none_or_clear_bad
can run into a hugepmd. The overhead of a barrier() is just a compiler
tweak and should not be measurable (I only added it for THP builds). I
don't exclude different compiler versions may have prevented the race
too by caching the value of *pmd on the stack (that hasn't been
verified, but it wouldn't be impossible considering
pmd_none_or_clear_bad, pmd_bad, pmd_trans_huge, pmd_none are all inlines
and there's no external function called in between pmd_trans_huge and
pmd_none_or_clear_bad).
if (pmd_trans_huge(*pmd)) {
if (next-addr != HPAGE_PMD_SIZE) {
VM_BUG_ON(!rwsem_is_locked(&tlb->mm->mmap_sem));
split_huge_page_pmd(vma->vm_mm, pmd);
} else if (zap_huge_pmd(tlb, vma, pmd, addr))
continue;
/* fall through */
}
if (pmd_none_or_clear_bad(pmd))
Because this race condition could be exercised without special
privileges this was reported in CVE-2012-1179.
The race was identified and fully explained by Ulrich who debugged it.
I'm quoting his accurate explanation below, for reference.
====== start quote =======
mapcount 0 page_mapcount 1
kernel BUG at mm/huge_memory.c:1384!
At some point prior to the panic, a "bad pmd ..." message similar to the
following is logged on the console:
mm/memory.c:145: bad pmd ffff8800376e1f98(80000000314000e7).
The "bad pmd ..." message is logged by pmd_clear_bad() before it clears
the page's PMD table entry.
143 void pmd_clear_bad(pmd_t *pmd)
144 {
-> 145 pmd_ERROR(*pmd);
146 pmd_clear(pmd);
147 }
After the PMD table entry has been cleared, there is an inconsistency
between the actual number of PMD table entries that are mapping the page
and the page's map count (_mapcount field in struct page). When the page
is subsequently reclaimed, __split_huge_page() detects this inconsistency.
1381 if (mapcount != page_mapcount(page))
1382 printk(KERN_ERR "mapcount %d page_mapcount %d\n",
1383 mapcount, page_mapcount(page));
-> 1384 BUG_ON(mapcount != page_mapcount(page));
The root cause of the problem is a race of two threads in a multithreaded
process. Thread B incurs a page fault on a virtual address that has never
been accessed (PMD entry is zero) while Thread A is executing an madvise()
system call on a virtual address within the same 2 MB (huge page) range.

...
spin_unlock(&mm->page_table_lock)
The mmap_sem does not prevent the race because both threads are acquiring
it in shared mode (down_read). Thread B holds the page_table_lock while
the page's map count and PMD table entry are updated. However, Thread A
does not synchronize on that lock.

commit 62d3c5439c534b0e6c653fc63e6d8c67be3a57b1 upstream.
This patch (as1519) fixes a bug in the block layer's disk-events
polling. The polling is done by a work routine queued on the
system_nrt_wq workqueue. Since that workqueue isn't freezable, the
polling continues even in the middle of a system sleep transition.
Obviously, polling a suspended drive for media changes and such isn't
a good thing to do; in the case of USB mass-storage devices it can
lead to real problems requiring device resets and even re-enumeration.
The patch fixes things by creating a new system-wide, non-reentrant,
freezable workqueue and using it for disk-events polling.

commit fe316bf2d5847bc5dd975668671a7b1067603bc7 upstream.
Since 2.6.39 (1196f8b), when a driver returns -ENOMEDIUM for open(),
__blkdev_get() calls rescan_partitions() to remove
in-kernel partition structures and raise KOBJ_CHANGE uevent.
However it ends up calling driver's revalidate_disk without open
and could cause oops.
In the case of SCSI:
process A process B
----------------------------------------------
sys_open
__blkdev_get
sd_open
returns -ENOMEDIUM
scsi_remove_device
<scsi_device torn down>
rescan_partitions
sd_revalidate_disk
<oops>
Oopses are reported here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=132388619710052
This patch separates the partition invalidation from rescan_partitions()
and use it for -ENOMEDIUM case.

Niccolo Belli reported ipsec crashes in case we handle a frame without
mac header (atm in his case)
Before copying mac header, better make sure it is present.

commit c49d005b6cc8491fad5b24f82805be2d6bcbd3dd upstream.
A hardware bug in the OMAP4 HDMI PHY causes physical damage to the board
if the HDMI PHY is kept powered on when the cable is not connected.
This patch solves the problem by adding hot-plug-detection into the HDMI
IP driver. This is not a real HPD support in the sense that nobody else
than the IP driver gets to know about the HPD events, but is only meant
to fix the HW bug.
The strategy is simple: If the display device is turned off by the user,
the PHY power is set to OFF. When the display device is turned on by the
user, the PHY power is set either to LDOON or TXON, depending on whether
the HDMI cable is connected.
The reason to avoid PHY OFF when the display device is on, but the cable
is disconnected, is that when the PHY is turned OFF, the HDMI IP is not
"ticking" and thus the DISPC does not receive pixel clock from the HDMI
IP. This would, for example, prevent any VSYNCs from happening, and
would thus affect the users of omapdss. By using LDOON when the cable is
disconnected we'll avoid the HW bug, but keep the HDMI working as usual
from the user's point of view.

commit 5189fa19a4b2b4c3bec37c3a019d446148827717 upstream.
There is only one error code to return for a bad user-space buffer
pointer passed to a system call in the same address space as the
system call is executed, and that is EFAULT. Furthermore, the
low-level access routines, which catch most of the faults, return
EFAULT already.

commit c8e252586f8d5de906385d8cf6385fee289a825e upstream.
The regset common infrastructure assumed that regsets would always
have .get and .set methods, but not necessarily .active methods.
Unfortunately people have since written regsets without .set methods.
Rather than putting in stub functions everywhere, handle regsets with
null .get or .set methods explicitly.

commit 3c761ea05a8900a907f32b628611873f6bef24b2 upstream.
The autofs compat handling fix caused a compile failure when
CONFIG_COMPAT isn't defined.
Instead of adding random #ifdef'fery in autofs, let's just make the
compat helpers earlier to use: without CONFIG_COMPAT, is_compat_task()
just hardcodes to zero.
We could probably do something similar for a number of other cases where
we have #ifdef's in code, but this is the low-hanging fruit.

commit 28d82dc1c4edbc352129f97f4ca22624d1fe61de upstream.
The current epoll code can be tickled to run basically indefinitely in
both loop detection path check (on ep_insert()), and in the wakeup paths.
The programs that tickle this behavior set up deeply linked networks of
epoll file descriptors that cause the epoll algorithms to traverse them
indefinitely. A couple of these sample programs have been previously
posted in this thread: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/25/297.
To fix the loop detection path check algorithms, I simply keep track of
the epoll nodes that have been already visited. Thus, the loop detection
becomes proportional to the number of epoll file descriptor and links.
This dramatically decreases the run-time of the loop check algorithm. In
one diabolical case I tried it reduced the run-time from 15 mintues (all
in kernel time) to .3 seconds.
Fixing the wakeup paths could be done at wakeup time in a similar manner
by keeping track of nodes that have already been visited, but the
complexity is harder, since there can be multiple wakeups on different
cpus...Thus, I've opted to limit the number of possible wakeup paths when
the paths are created.
This is accomplished, by noting that the end file descriptor points that
are found during the loop detection pass (from the newly added link), are
actually the sources for wakeup events. I keep a list of these file
descriptors and limit the number and length of these paths that emanate
from these 'source file descriptors'. In the current implemetation I
allow 1000 paths of length 1, 500 of length 2, 100 of length 3, 50 of
length 4 and 10 of length 5. Note that it is sufficient to check the
'source file descriptors' reachable from the newly added link, since no
other 'source file descriptors' will have newly added links. This allows
us to check only the wakeup paths that may have gotten too long, and not
re-check all possible wakeup paths on the system.
In terms of the path limit selection, I think its first worth noting that
the most common case for epoll, is probably the model where you have 1
epoll file descriptor that is monitoring n number of 'source file
descriptors'. In this case, each 'source file descriptor' has a 1 path of
length 1. Thus, I believe that the limits I'm proposing are quite
reasonable and in fact may be too generous. Thus, I'm hoping that the
proposed limits will not prevent any workloads that currently work to
fail.
In terms of locking, I have extended the use of the 'epmutex' to all
epoll_ctl add and remove operations. Currently its only used in a subset
of the add paths. I need to hold the epmutex, so that we can correctly
traverse a coherent graph, to check the number of paths. I believe that
this additional locking is probably ok, since its in the setup/teardown
paths, and doesn't affect the running paths, but it certainly is going to
add some extra overhead. Also, worth noting is that the epmuex was
recently added to the ep_ctl add operations in the initial path loop
detection code us |
