If another freeze happens before all tasks leave FROZEN state after
being thawed, the freezer can see the existing FROZEN and consider the
tasks to be frozen but they can clear FROZEN without checking the new
freezing().
Oleg suggested restructuring __refrigerator() such that there's single
condition check section inside freezer_lock and sigpending is cleared
afterwards, which fixes the problem and simplifies the code.
Restructure accordingly.
-v2: Frozen loop exited without releasing freezer_lock. Fixed.

A kthread doing set_freezable*() may race with on-going PM freeze and
the freezer might think all tasks are frozen while the new freezable
kthread is merrily proceeding to execute code paths which aren't
supposed to be executing during PM freeze.
Reimplement set_freezable[_with_signal]() using __set_freezable() such
that freezable PF flags are modified under freezer_lock and
try_to_freeze() is called afterwards. This eliminates race condition
against freezing.
Note: Separated out from larger patch to resolve fix order dependency

Using TIF_FREEZE for freezing worked when there was only single
freezing condition (the PM one); however, now there is also the
cgroup_freezer and single bit flag is getting clumsy.
thaw_processes() is already testing whether cgroup freezing in in
effect to avoid thawing tasks which were frozen by both PM and cgroup
freezers.
This is racy (nothing prevents race against cgroup freezing) and
fragile. A much simpler way is to test actual freeze conditions from
freezing() - ie. directly test whether PM or cgroup freezing is in
effect.
This patch adds variables to indicate whether and what type of
freezing conditions are in effect and reimplements freezing() such
that it directly tests whether any of the two freezing conditions is
active and the task should freeze. On fast path, freezing() is still
very cheap - it only tests system_freezing_cnt.
This makes the clumsy dancing aroung TIF_FREEZE unnecessary and
freeze/thaw operations more usual - updating state variables for the
new state and nudging target tasks so that they notice the new state
and comply. As long as the nudging happens after state update, it's
race-free.
* This allows use of freezing() in freeze_task(). Replace the open
coded tests with freezing().
* p != current test is added to warning printing conditions in
try_to_freeze_tasks() failure path. This is necessary as freezing()
is now true for the task which initiated freezing too.
-v2: Oleg pointed out that re-freezing FROZEN cgroup could increment
system_freezing_cnt. Fixed.

TIF_FREEZE will be removed soon and freezing() will directly test
whether any freezing condition is in effect. Make the following
changes in preparation.
* Rename cgroup_freezing_or_frozen() to cgroup_freezing() and make it
return bool.
* Make cgroup_freezing() access task_freezer() under rcu read lock
instead of task_lock(). This makes the state dereferencing racy
against task moving to another cgroup; however, it was already racy
without this change as ->state dereference wasn't synchronized.
This will be later dealt with using attach hooks.
* freezer->state is now set before trying to push tasks into the
target state.
-v2: Oleg pointed out that freeze_change_state() was setting
freeze->state incorrectly to CGROUP_FROZEN instead of
CGROUP_FREEZING. Fixed.
-v3: Matt pointed out that setting CGROUP_FROZEN used to always invoke
try_to_freeze_cgroup() regardless of the current state. Patch
updated such that the actual freeze/thaw operations are always
performed on invocation. This shouldn't make any difference
unless something is broken.

freeze_processes() failure path is rather messy. Freezing is canceled
for workqueues and tasks which aren't frozen yet but frozen tasks are
left alone and should be thawed by the caller and of course some
callers (xen and kexec) didn't do it.
This patch updates __thaw_task() to handle cancelation correctly and
makes freeze_processes() and freeze_kernel_threads() call
thaw_processes() on failure instead so that the system is fully thawed
on failure. Unnecessary [suspend_]thaw_processes() calls are removed
from kernel/power/hibernate.c, suspend.c and user.c.
While at it, restructure error checking if clause in suspend_prepare()
to be less weird.

try_to_freeze_tasks() and thaw_processes() use freezable() and
frozen() as preliminary tests before initiating operations on a task.
These are done without any synchronization and hinder with
synchronization cleanup without any real performance benefits.
In try_to_freeze_tasks(), open code self test and move PF_NOFREEZE and
frozen() tests inside freezer_lock in freeze_task().
thaw_processes() can simply drop freezable() test as frozen() test in
__thaw_task() is enough.
Note: This used to be a part of larger patch to fix set_freezable()
race. Separated out to satisfy ordering among dependent fixes.

Currently freezing (TIF_FREEZE) and frozen (PF_FROZEN) states are
interlocked - freezing is set to request freeze and when the task
actually freezes, it clears freezing and sets frozen.
This interlocking makes things more complex than necessary - freezing
doesn't mean there's freezing condition in effect and frozen doesn't
match the task actually entering and leaving frozen state (it's
cleared by the thawing task).
This patch makes freezing indicate that freeze condition is in effect.
A task enters and stays frozen if freezing. This makes PF_FROZEN
manipulation done only by the task itself and prevents wakeup from
__thaw_task() leaking outside of refrigerator.
The only place which needs to tell freezing && !frozen is
try_to_freeze_task() to whine about tasks which don't enter frozen.
It's updated to test the condition explicitly.
With the change, frozen() state my linger after __thaw_task() until
the task wakes up and exits fridge. This can trigger BUG_ON() in
update_if_frozen(). Work it around by testing freezing() && frozen()
instead of frozen().
-v2: Oleg pointed out missing re-check of freezing() when trying to
clear FROZEN and possible spurious BUG_ON() trigger in
update_if_frozen(). Both fixed.

Freezer synchronization is needlessly complicated - it's by no means a
hot path and the priority is staying unintrusive and safe. This patch
makes it simply use a dedicated lock instead of piggy-backing on
task_lock() and playing with memory barriers.
On the failure path of try_to_freeze_tasks(), locking is moved from it
to cancel_freezing(). This makes the frozen() test racy but the race
here is a non-issue as the warning is printed for tasks which failed
to enter frozen for 20 seconds and race on PF_FROZEN at the last
moment doesn't change anything.
This simplifies freezer implementation and eases further changes
including some race fixes.

There's no point in thawing nosig tasks before others. There's no
ordering requirement between the two groups on thaw, which the staged
thawing can't guarantee anyway. Simplify thaw_processes() by removing
the distinction and collapsing thaw_tasks() into thaw_processes().
This will help further updates to freezer.

clear_freeze_flag() in exit_mm() is racy. Freezing can start
afterwards. Remove it. Skipping freezer for exiting task will be
properly implemented later.
Also, freezable() was testing exit_state directly to make system
freezer ignore dead tasks. Let the exiting task set PF_NOFREEZE after
entering TASK_DEAD instead.

Writeback and thinkpad_acpi have been using thaw_process() to prevent
deadlock between the freezer and kthread_stop(); unfortunately, this
is inherently racy - nothing prevents freezing from happening between
thaw_process() and kthread_stop().
This patch implements kthread_freezable_should_stop() which enters
refrigerator if necessary but is guaranteed to return if
kthread_stop() is invoked. Both thaw_process() users are converted to
use the new function.
Note that this deadlock condition exists for many of freezable
kthreads. They need to be converted to use the new should_stop or
freezable workqueue.

* Update try_to_freeze() to return bool and relay the return value of

Some drivers set PF_NOFREEZE in their kthread functions which is

refrigerator() saves current->state before entering frozen state and
restores it before returning using __set_current_state(); however,
this is racy, for example, please consider the following sequence.
set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
try_to_freeze();
if (kthread_should_stop())
break;
schedule();
If kthread_stop() races with ->state restoration, the restoration can
restore ->state to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE after kthread_stop() sets it to
TASK_RUNNING but kthread_should_stop() may still see zero
->should_stop because there's no memory barrier between restoring
TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and kthread_should_stop() test.
This isn't restricted to kthread_should_stop(). current->state is
often used in memory barrier based synchronization and silently
restoring it w/o mb breaks them.
Use set_current_state() instead.

The log replay code only partially loads block groups, since
the block group caching code is able to detect and deal with
extents the logging code has pinned down.
While the logging code is pinning down block groups, there is
a bogus WARN_ON we're hitting if the code wasn't able to find
an extent in the cache. This commit removes the warning because
it can happen any time there isn't a valid free space cache
for that block group.

To prevent an NFS server from being used to create a directory loop in an NFS
superblock on the client, the following patch was committed:
commit 1836750115f20b774e55c032a3893e8c5bdf41ed
Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Date: Tue Jul 12 21:42:24 2011 -0400
Subject: fix loop checks in d_materialise_unique()
This causes ELOOP to be reported to anyone trying to access the dentry that
would otherwise cause the kernel to complete the loop.
However, no indication is given to the caller as to why an operation that ought
to work doesn't. The fault is with the kernel, which doesn't want to try and
solve the problem as it gets horrendously messy if there's another mountpoint
somewhere in the trees being spliced that can't be moved[*].
[*] The real problem is that we don't handle the excision of a subtree that
gets moved _out_ of what we can see. This can happen on the server where a
directory is merely moved between two other dirs on the same filesystem, but
where destination dir is not accessible by the client.
So, given the choice to return ELOOP rather than trying to reconfigure the
dentry tree, we should give the caller some indication of why they aren't being
allowed to make what should be a legitimate request and log a message.

We've been hitting BUG()'s in btrfs_cont_expand and btrfs_fallocate and anywhere
else that calls btrfs_get_extent while running xfstests 13 in a loop. This is
because fiemap is calling btrfs_get_extent with non-sectorsize aligned offsets,
which will end up adding mappings that are not sectorsize aligned, which will
cause problems in some cases for subsequent calls to btrfs_get_extent for
similar areas that are sectorsize aligned. With this patch I ran xfstests 13 in

We've been hitting panics when running xfstest 13 in a loop for long periods of
time. And actually this problem has always existed so we've been hitting these
things randomly for a while. Basically what happens is we get a thread coming
into the allocator and reading the space cache off of disk and adding the
entries to the free space cache as we go. Then we get another thread that comes
in and tries to allocate from that block group. Since block_group->cached !=
BTRFS_CACHE_NO it goes ahead and tries to do the allocation. We do this because
if we're doing the old slow way of caching we don't want to hold people up and
wait for everything to finish. The problem with this is we could end up
discarding the space cache at some arbitrary point in the future, which means we
could very well end up allocating space that is either bad, or when the real
caching happens it could end up thinking the space isn't in use when it really
is and cause all sorts of other problems.
The solution is to add a new flag to indicate we are loading the free space
cache from disk, and always try to cache the block group if cache->cached !=
BTRFS_CACHE_FINISHED. That way if we are loading the space cache anybody else
who tries to allocate from the block group will have to wait until it's finished
to make sure it completes successfully. Thanks,

In this case, there will be only one bitmap [256, 512] in the temporary

The cause is, the list is constructed in setup_cluster_no_bitmap(),
and only bitmaps with bitmap_entry->offset >= offset will be added
into the list, and the very bitmap that convers offset has
bitmap_entry->offset <= offset.

When btrfs is writing the super blocks, it send barrier flushes to make
sure writeback caching drives get all the metadata on disk in the
right order.
But, we have two bugs in the way these are sent down. When doing
full commits (not via the tree log), we are sending the barrier down
before the last super when it should be going down before the first.
In multi-device setups, we should be waiting for the barriers to
complete on all devices before writing any of the supers.
Both of these bugs can cause corruptions on power failures. We fix it
with some new code to send down empty barriers to all devices before
writing the first super.
Alexandre Oliva found the multi-device bug. Arne Jansen did the async

Prevent tracing of preempt_disable() in get_cpu_var() in

preempt_disable/enable() are traced and this causes the function_graph
tracer to go into an infinite recursion. By open coding the
preempt_disable() around the get_cpu_var(), we can use the notrace
version which prevents preempt_disable/enable() from being traced and
prevents the recursion.

This adds a new optional chunk to the CS ioctl that specifies optional flags
to the CS parser. Why this is useful is explained below. Note that some regs
no longer need the NOP relocation packet if this feature is enabled.
Tested on r300g and r600g with this flag disabled and enabled.
Assume there are two contexts sharing the same mipmapped tiled texture.
One context wants to render into the first mipmap and the other one
wants to render into the last mipmap. As you probably know, the hardware
has a MACRO_SWITCH feature, which turns off macro tiling for small mipmaps,
but that only applies to samplers.
(at least on r300-r500, though later hardware likely behaves the same)
So we want to just re-set the tiling flags before rendering (writing
packets), right? ... No. The contexts run in parallel, so they may
set the tiling flags simultaneously and then fire their command streams
also simultaneously. The last one setting the flags wins, the other one
loses.
Another problem is when one context wants to render into the first and
the last mipmap in one CS. Impossible. It must flush before changing
tiling flags and do the rendering into the smaller mipmaps in another CS.
Yet another problem is that writing copy_blit in userspace would be a mess
involving re-setting tiling flags to please the kernel, and causing races
with other contexts at the same time.
The only way out of this is to send tiling flags with each CS, ideally
with each relocation. But we already do that through the registers.
So let's just use what we have in the registers.

Newer versions of MINIX can create filesystems that allocate an extra
bitmap block. Mounting of this succeeds, but doing a statfs call will
result in an oops in count_free because of a negative number being used
for the bh index.
Avoid this by verifying the number of allocated blocks at mount time,
erroring out if there are not enough and make statfs ignore the extras
if there are too many.
This fixes https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18792

After commit 2a77c46de1e3dace73745015635ebbc648eca69c
(PM / Suspend: Add statistics debugfs file for suspend to RAM)
a missing pair of braces inside the state_store() function causes even
invalid arguments to suspend to be wrongly treated as failed suspend
attempts. Fix this.

Dummy, non-zero definitions for HPAGE_MASK and HPAGE_SIZE were added in
51c6f666fceb ("mm: ZAP_BLOCK causes redundant work") to avoid a divide
by zero in generic kernel code.
That code has since been removed, but probably should never have been
added in the first place: we don't want HPAGE_SIZE to act like PAGE_SIZE
for code that is working with hugepages, for example, when the
dependency on CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE has not been fulfilled.
Because hugepage size can differ from architecture to architecture, each
is required to have their own definitions for both HPAGE_MASK and
HPAGE_SIZE. This is always done in arch/*/include/asm/page.h.
So, just remove the dummy and dangerous definitions since they are no
longer needed and reveals the correct dependencies. Tested on
architectures using the definitions with allyesconfig: x86 (even with
thp), hppa, mips, powerpc, s390, sh3, sh4, sparc, and sparc64, and with
defconfig on ia64.
