void because it returns zero nr_taken easily so LRU shrinking is
effectively nothing and just increases priority aggressively. Finally,
OOM happens.The problem is that get_scan_count determines nr_to_scan with eligible
zones so although priority drops to zero, it couldn't reclaim any pages
if the LRU contains mostly ineligible pages.get_scan_count:
size = lruvec_lru_size(lruvec, lru, sc->reclaim_idx);
size = size >> sc->priority;Assumes sc->priority is 0 and LRU list is as follows.
N-N-N-N-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H-H
(Ie, small eligible pages are in the head of LRU but others are
almost ineligible pages)In that case, size becomes 4 so VM want to scan 4 pages but 4 pages from
tail of the LRU are not eligible pages. If get_scan_count counts
skipped pages, it doesn't reclaim any pages remained after scanning 4
pages so it ends up OOM happening.This patch makes isolate_lru_pages try to scan pages until it encounters
eligible zones's pages.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: clean up mind-bending `for' statement. Tweak comment text]

This is based on a patch from Jan Kara that fixed the equivalent race in
the DAX PTE fault path.Currently DAX PMD read fault can race with write(2) in the following
way:CPU1 - write(2) CPU2 - read fault
dax_iomap_pmd_fault()
->iomap_begin() - sees holedax_iomap_rw()
iomap_apply()
->iomap_begin - allocates blocks
dax_iomap_actor()
invalidate_inode_pages2_range()
- there's nothing to invalidategrab_mapping_entry()
- we add huge zero page to the radix tree
and map it to page tablesThe result is that hole page is mapped into page tables (and thus zeros
are seen in mmap) while file has data written in that place.Fix the problem by locking exception entry before mapping blocks for the
fault. That way we are sure invalidate_inode_pages2_range() call for
racing write will either block on entry lock waiting for the fault to
finish (and unmap stale page tables after that) or read fault will see
already allocated blocks by write(2).Fixes: 9f141d6ef6258 ("dax: Call ->iomap_begin without entry lock during dax fault")

Currently, we didn't invalidate page tables during invalidate_inode_pages2()
for DAX. That could result in e.g. 2MiB zero page being mapped into
page tables while there were already underlying blocks allocated and
thus data seen through mmap were different from data seen by read(2).
The following sequence reproduces the problem:- open an mmap over a 2MiB hole
- read from a 2MiB hole, faulting in a 2MiB zero page
- write to the hole with write(3p). The write succeeds but we
incorrectly leave the 2MiB zero page mapping intact.- via the mmap, read the data that was just written. Since the zero
page mapping is still intact we read back zeroes instead of the new
data.Fix the problem by unconditionally calling invalidate_inode_pages2_range()
in dax_iomap_actor() for new block allocations and by properly
invalidating page tables in invalidate_inode_pages2_range() for DAX
mappings.Fixes: c6dcf52c23d2d3fb5235cec42d7dd3f786b87d55

Patch series "mm,dax: Fix data corruption due to mmap inconsistency",
v4.This series fixes data corruption that can happen for DAX mounts when
page faults race with write(2) and as a result page tables get out of
sync with block mappings in the filesystem and thus data seen through
mmap is different from data seen through read(2).The series passes testing with t_mmap_stale test program from Ross and
also other mmap related tests on DAX filesystem.This patch (of 4):
dax_invalidate_mapping_entry() currently removes DAX exceptional entries
only if they are clean and unlocked. This is done via:invalidate_mapping_pages()
invalidate_exceptional_entry()
dax_invalidate_mapping_entry()However, for page cache pages removed in invalidate_mapping_pages()
there is an additional criteria which is that the page must not be
mapped. This is noted in the comments above invalidate_mapping_pages()
and is checked in invalidate_inode_page().For DAX entries this means that we can can end up in a situation where a
DAX exceptional entry, either a huge zero page or a regular DAX entry,
could end up mapped but without an associated radix tree entry. This is
inconsistent with the rest of the DAX code and with what happens in the
page cache case.We aren't able to unmap the DAX exceptional entry because according to
its comments invalidate_mapping_pages() isn't allowed to block, and
unmap_mapping_range() takes a write lock on the mapping->i_mmap_rwsem.Since we essentially never have unmapped DAX entries to evict from the
radix tree, just remove dax_invalidate_mapping_entry().Fixes: c6dcf52c23d2 ("mm: Invalidate DAX radix tree entries only if appropriate")

This patch reverts 1f5307b1e094 and reimplements the original fix in a
different way. __vmalloc_node_flags can stay static inline which will
cover vmalloc* functions. We only have one external user

provide the caller directly. This is much simpler and it doesn't really
need any games with header files.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes]

Laurent Dufour has noticed that hwpoinsoned pages are kept charged. In
his particular case he has hit a bad_page("page still charged to
cgroup") when onlining a hwpoison page. While this looks like something
that shouldn't happen in the first place because onlining hwpages and
returning them to the page allocator makes only little sense it shows a
real problem.hwpoison pages do not get freed usually so we do not uncharge them (at
least not since commit 0a31bc97c80c ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge
API")). Each charge pins memcg (since e8ea14cc6ead ("mm: memcontrol:
take a css reference for each charged page")) as well and so the
mem_cgroup and the associated state will never go away. Fix this leak
by forcibly uncharging a LRU hwpoisoned page in delete_from_lru_cache().
We also have to tweak uncharge_list because it cannot rely on zero ref
count for these pages.[akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes]

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"Incremental fixes and a small feature addition on top of the main
libnvdimm 4.12 pull request:- Geert noticed that tinyconfig was bloated by BLOCK selecting DAX.
The size regression is fixed by moving all dax helpers into the
dax-core and only specifying "select DAX" for FS_DAX and
dax-capable drivers. He also asked for clarification of the
NR_DEV_DAX config option which, on closer look, does not need to be
a config option at all. Mike also throws in a DEV_DAX_PMEM fixup
for good measure.- Ben's attention to detail on -stable patch submissions caught a
case where the recent fixes to arch_copy_from_iter_pmem() missed a
condition where we strand dirty data in the cache. This is tagged
for -stable and will also be included in the rework of the pmem api
to a proposed {memcpy,copy_user}_flushcache() interface for 4.13.- Vishal adds a feature that missed the initial pull due to pending
review feedback. It allows the kernel to clear media errors when
initializing a BTT (atomic sector update driver) instance on a pmem
namespace.- Ross noticed that the dax_device + dax_operations conversion broke
__dax_zero_page_range(). The nvdimm unit tests fail to check this

Pull thermal management updates from Zhang Rui:
- Fix a problem where orderly_shutdown() is called for multiple times
due to multiple critical overheating events raised in a short period
by platform thermal driver. (Keerthy)- Introduce a backup thermal shutdown mechanism, which invokes
kernel_power_off()/emergency_restart() directly, after
orderly_shutdown() being issued for certain amount of time(specified
via Kconfig). This is useful in certain conditions that userspace may
be unable to power off the system in a clean manner and leaves the
system in a critical state, like in the middle of driver probing
phase. (Keerthy)- Introduce a new interface in thermal devfreq_cooling code so that the
driver can provide more precise data regarding actual power to the
thermal governor every time the power budget is calculated. (Lukasz
Luba)- Introduce BCM 2835 soc thermal driver and northstar thermal driver,
within a new sub-folder. (Rafał Miłecki)- Introduce DA9062/61 thermal driver. (Steve Twiss)
- Remove non-DT booting on TI-SoC driver. Also add support to fetching
coefficients from DT. (Keerthy)- Refactorf RCAR Gen3 thermal driver. (Niklas Söderlund)

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
"Things were a lot more calm than previously expected. It's primarily
fixes in various areas, with most of the new functionality centering
around TCMU backend driver work that Xiubo Li has been driving.Here's the summary on the feature side:
- Make T10-PI verify configurable for emulated (FILEIO + RD) backends

- Allow target-core/TCMU pass-through to use in-kernel SPC-PR logic
(Bryant Ly + MNC)
- Add TCMU support for growing ring buffer size (Xiubo Li + MNC)
- Add TCMU support for global block data pool (Xiubo Li + MNC)and on the bug-fix side:

failures (Gary Guo + nab)
- Fix iscsi-target hang with explicitly changing per NodeACL
CmdSN number depth with concurrent login driven session
reinstatement. (Gary Guo + nab)
- Fix ibmvscsis fabric driver ABORT task handling (Bryant Ly)
- Fix target-core/FILEIO zero length handling (Bart Van Assche)Also, there was an OOPs introduced with the WRITE_VERIFY changes that
I ended up reverting at the last minute, because as not unusual Bart
and I could not agree on the fix in time for -rc1. Since it's specific
to a conformance test, it's been reverted for now.There is a separate patch in the queue to address the underlying

O_PATH ones) for referral points in the first place, so the existing
