mm: fix NULL ptr dereference in __count_immobile_pages

Fix the following NULL ptr dereference caused by

  cat /sys/devices/system/memory/memory0/removable

We are crashing because we are trying to dereference NULL zone which
came from pfn=0 (struct page ffffea0000000000). According to the boot
log this page is marked reserved:
e820 update range: 0000000000000000 - 0000000000010000 (usable) ==> (reserved)

and early_node_map confirms that:
early_node_map[3] active PFN ranges
    1: 0x00000010 -> 0x0000009c
    1: 0x00000100 -> 0x000bffa3
    1: 0x00100000 -> 0x00240000

The problem is that memory_present works in PAGE_SECTION_MASK aligned
blocks so the reserved range sneaks into the the section as well.  This
also means that free_area_init_node will not take care of those reserved
pages and they stay uninitialized.

When we try to read the removable status we walk through all available
sections and hope that the zone is valid for all pages in the section.
But this is not true in this case as the zone and nid are not initialized.

We have only one node in this particular case and it is marked as node=1
(rather than 0) and that made the problem visible because page_to_nid will
return 0 and there are no zones on the node.

Let's check that the zone is valid and that the given pfn falls into its
boundaries and mark the section not removable.  This might cause some
false positives, probably, but we do not have any sane way to find out
whether the page is reserved by the platform or it is just not used for
whatever other reasons.

CPU hotplug, cpusets, suspend: Don't modify cpusets during suspend/resume

commit d35be8bab9b0ce44bed4b9453f86ebf64062721e upstream.

In the event of CPU hotplug, the kernel modifies the cpusets' cpus_allowed
masks as and when necessary to ensure that the tasks belonging to the cpusets
have some place (online CPUs) to run on. And regular CPU hotplug is
destructive in the sense that the kernel doesn't remember the original cpuset
configurations set by the user, across hotplug operations.

However, suspend/resume (which uses CPU hotplug) is a special case in which
the kernel has the responsibility to restore the system (during resume), to
exactly the same state it was in before suspend.

In order to achieve that, do the following:

1. Don't modify cpusets during suspend/resume. At all.
   In particular, don't move the tasks from one cpuset to another, and
   don't modify any cpuset's cpus_allowed mask. So, simply ignore cpusets
   during the CPU hotplug operations that are carried out in the
   suspend/resume path.

2. However, cpusets and sched domains are related. We just want to avoid
   altering cpusets alone. So, to keep the sched domains updated, build
   a single sched domain (containing all active cpus) during each of the
   CPU hotplug operations carried out in s/r path, effectively ignoring
   the cpusets' cpus_allowed masks.

   (Since userspace is frozen while doing all this, it will go unnoticed.)

3. During the last CPU online operation during resume, build the sched
   domains by looking up the (unaltered) cpusets' cpus_allowed masks.
   That will bring back the system to the same original state as it was in
   before suspend.

Ultimately, this will not only solve the cpuset problem related to suspend
resume (ie., restores the cpusets to exactly what it was before suspend, by
not touching it at all) but also speeds up suspend/resume because we avoid
running cpuset update code for every CPU being offlined/onlined.

workqueue: perform cpu down operations from low priority cpu_notifier()

commit 6575820221f7a4dd6eadecf7bf83cdd154335eda upstream.

Currently, all workqueue cpu hotplug operations run off
CPU_PRI_WORKQUEUE which is higher than normal notifiers.  This is to
ensure that workqueue is up and running while bringing up a CPU before
other notifiers try to use workqueue on the CPU.

Per-cpu workqueues are supposed to remain working and bound to the CPU
for normal CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifiers.  This holds mostly true even
with workqueue offlining running with higher priority because
workqueue CPU_DOWN_PREPARE only creates a bound trustee thread which
runs the per-cpu workqueue without concurrency management without
explicitly detaching the existing workers.

However, if the trustee needs to create new workers, it creates
unbound workers which may wander off to other CPUs while
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE notifiers are in progress.  Furthermore, if the CPU
down is cancelled, the per-CPU workqueue may end up with workers which
aren't bound to the CPU.

While reliably reproducible with a convoluted artificial test-case
involving scheduling and flushing CPU burning work items from CPU down
notifiers, this isn't very likely to happen in the wild, and, even
when it happens, the effects are likely to be hidden by the following
successful CPU down.

Fix it by using different priorities for up and down notifiers - high
priority for up operations and low priority for down operations.

Workqueue cpu hotplug operations will soon go through further cleanup.

workqueue: reimplement work_on_cpu() using system_wq

commit ed48ece27cd3d5ee0354c32bbaec0f3e1d4715c3 upstream.

The existing work_on_cpu() implementation is hugely inefficient.  It
creates a new kthread, execute that single function and then let the
kthread die on each invocation.

Now that system_wq can handle concurrent executions, there's no
advantage of doing this.  Reimplement work_on_cpu() using system_wq
which makes it simpler and way more efficient.

stable: While this isn't a fix in itself, it's needed to fix a
        workqueue related bug in cpufreq/powernow-k8.  AFAICS, this
        shouldn't break other existing users.

workqueue: add missing smp_wmb() in process_one_work()

commit 959d1af8cffc8fd38ed53e8be1cf4ab8782f9c00 upstream.

WORK_STRUCT_PENDING is used to claim ownership of a work item and
process_one_work() releases it before starting execution.  When
someone else grabs PENDING, all pre-release updates to the work item
should be visible and all updates made by the new owner should happen
afterwards.

Grabbing PENDING uses test_and_set_bit() and thus has a full barrier;
however, clearing doesn't have a matching wmb.  Given the preceding
spin_unlock and use of clear_bit, I don't believe this can be a
problem on an actual machine and there hasn't been any related report
but it still is theretically possible for clear_pending to permeate
upwards and happen before work->entry update.

Add an explicit smp_wmb() before work_clear_pending().

workqueue: UNBOUND -> REBIND morphing in rebind_workers() should be atomic

commit 96e65306b81351b656835c15931d1d237b252f27 upstream.

The compiler may compile the following code into TWO write/modify
instructions.

	worker->flags &= ~WORKER_UNBOUND;
	worker->flags |= WORKER_REBIND;

so the other CPU may temporarily see worker->flags which doesn't have
either WORKER_UNBOUND or WORKER_REBIND set and perform local wakeup
prematurely.

Fix it by using single explicit assignment via ACCESS_ONCE().

Because idle workers have another WORKER_NOT_RUNNING flag, this bug
doesn't exist for them; however, update it to use the same pattern for
consistency.

tj: Applied the change to idle workers too and updated comments and
    patch description a bit.

stable: Idle worker rebinding doesn't apply for -stable and
        WORKER_UNBOUND used to be WORKER_ROGUE.  Updated accordingly.

workqueue: fix possible stall on try_to_grab_pending() of a delayed work item

commit 3aa62497594430ea522050b75c033f71f2c60ee6 upstream.

Currently, when try_to_grab_pending() grabs a delayed work item, it
leaves its linked work items alone on the delayed_works.  The linked
work items are always NO_COLOR and will cause future
cwq_activate_first_delayed() increase cwq->nr_active incorrectly, and
may cause the whole cwq to stall.  For example,

state: cwq->max_active = 1, cwq->nr_active = 1
       one work in cwq->pool, many in cwq->delayed_works.

step1: try_to_grab_pending() removes a work item from delayed_works
       but leaves its NO_COLOR linked work items on it.

step2: Later on, cwq_activate_first_delayed() activates the linked
       work item increasing ->nr_active.

step3: cwq->nr_active = 1, but all activated work items of the cwq are
       NO_COLOR.  When they finish, cwq->nr_active will not be
       decreased due to NO_COLOR, and no further work items will be
       activated from cwq->delayed_works. the cwq stalls.

Fix it by ensuring the target work item is activated before stealing
PENDING in try_to_grab_pending().  This ensures that all the linked
work items are activated without incorrectly bumping cwq->nr_active.

tj: Updated comment and description.

Block: use a freezable workqueue for disk-event polling

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.

workqueue: skip nr_running sanity check in worker_enter_idle() if trustee is active

commit 544ecf310f0e7f51fa057ac2a295fc1b3b35a9d3 upstream.

worker_enter_idle() has WARN_ON_ONCE() which triggers if nr_running
isn't zero when every worker is idle.  This can trigger spuriously
while a cpu is going down due to the way trustee sets %WORKER_ROGUE
and zaps nr_running.

It first sets %WORKER_ROGUE on all workers without updating
nr_running, releases gcwq->lock, schedules, regrabs gcwq->lock and
then zaps nr_running.  If the last running worker enters idle
inbetween, it would see stale nr_running which hasn't been zapped yet
and trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE().

Fix it by performing the sanity check iff the trustee is idle.

Revert "sched: Folding nohz load accounting more accurate"

This reverts commit 807cae75e15b7be8470237f967d6809c21970725.
nohz: Fix update_ts_time_stat idle accounting

update_ts_time_stat currently updates idle time even if we are in
iowait loop at the moment. The only real users of the idle counter
(via get_cpu_idle_time_us) are CPU governors and they expect to get
cumulative time for both idle and iowait times.
The value (idle_sleeptime) is also printed to userspace by print_cpu
but it prints both idle and iowait times so the idle part is misleading.

Let's clean this up and fix update_ts_time_stat to account both counters
properly and update consumers of idle to consider iowait time as well.
If we do this we might use get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us from other
contexts as well and we will get expected values.

This doesn't work well outside of CPU governors which are singletons
so nobody (except for IRQ) can race with them.

We will need to use both functions from /proc/stat handler to properly
handle nohz idle/iowait times.

Make the update depend on a non NULL last_update_time argument.

sched: Fix idle_cpu()

On -rt we observed hackbench waking all 400 tasks to a single cpu.
This is because of select_idle_sibling()'s interaction with the new
ipi based wakeup scheme.

The existing idle_cpu() test only checks to see if the current task on
that cpu is the idle task, it does not take already queued tasks into
account, nor does it take queued to be woken tasks into account.

If the remote wakeup IPIs come hard enough, there won't be time to
schedule away from the idle task, and would thus keep thinking the cpu
was in fact idle, regardless of the fact that there were already
several hundred tasks runnable.

We couldn't reproduce on mainline, but there's no reason it couldn't
happen.

sched: Use resched IPI to kick off the nohz idle balance

Current use of smp call function to kick the nohz idle balance can deadlock
in this scenario.

1. cpu-A did a generic_exec_single() to cpu-B and after queuing its call single
data (csd) to the call single queue, cpu-A took a timer interrupt.  Actual IPI
to cpu-B to process the call single queue is not yet sent.

2. As part of the timer interrupt handler, cpu-A decided to kick cpu-B
for the idle load balancing (sets cpu-B's rq->nohz_balance_kick to 1)
and __smp_call_function_single() with nowait will queue the csd to the
cpu-B's queue. But the generic_exec_single() won't send an IPI to cpu-B
as the call single queue was not empty.

3. cpu-A is busy with lot of interrupts

4. Meanwhile cpu-B is entering and exiting idle and noticed that it has
it's rq->nohz_balance_kick set to '1'. So it will go ahead and do the
idle load balancer and clear its rq->nohz_balance_kick.

5. At this point, csd queued as part of the step-2 above is still locked
and waiting to be serviced on cpu-B.

6. cpu-A is still busy with interrupt load and now it got another timer
interrupt and as part of it decided to kick cpu-B for another idle load
balancing (as it finds cpu-B's rq->nohz_balance_kick cleared in step-4
above) and does __smp_call_function_single() with the same csd that is
still locked.

7. And we get a deadlock waiting for the csd_lock() in the
__smp_call_function_single().

Main issue here is that cpu-B can service the idle load balancer kick
request from cpu-A even with out receiving the IPI and this lead to
doing multiple __smp_call_function_single() on the same csd leading to
deadlock.

To kick a cpu, scheduler already has the reschedule vector reserved. Use
that mechanism (kick_process()) instead of using the generic smp call function
mechanism to kick off the nohz idle load balancing and avoid the deadlock.

   [ This issue is present from 2.6.35+ kernels, but marking it -stable
     only from v3.0+ as the proposed fix depends on the scheduler_ipi()
     that is introduced recently. ]

sched: Request for idle balance during nohz idle load balance

rq's idle_at_tick is set to idle/busy during the timer tick
depending on the cpu was idle or not. This will be used later in the load
balance that will be done in the softirq context (which is a process
context in -RT kernels).

For nohz kernels, for the cpu doing nohz idle load balance on behalf of
all the idle cpu's, its rq->idle_at_tick might have a stale value (which is
recorded when it got the timer tick presumably when it is busy).

As the nohz idle load balancing is also being done at the same place
as the regular load balancing, nohz idle load balancing was bailing out
when it sees rq's idle_at_tick not set.

Thus leading to poor system utilization.

Rename rq's idle_at_tick to idle_balance and set it when someone requests
for nohz idle balance on an idle cpu.

proc: Consider NO_HZ when printing idle and iowait times

show_stat handler of the /proc/stat file relies on kstat_cpu(cpu)
statistics when priting information about idle and iowait times.
This is OK if we are not using tickless kernel (CONFIG_NO_HZ) because
counters are updated periodically.
With NO_HZ things got more tricky because we are not doing idle/iowait
accounting while we are tickless so the value might get outdated.
Users of /proc/stat will notice that by unchanged idle/iowait values
which is then interpreted as 0% idle/iowait time. From the user space
POV this is an unexpected behavior and a change of the interface.

Let's fix this by using get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us which accounts the
total idle/iowait time since boot and it doesn't rely on sampling or any
other periodic activity. Fall back to the previous behavior if NO_HZ is
disabled or not configured.
