The vdso_per_cpu_data entry in the lowcore structure uses __u32 instead of __u64. If the data page is above 4GB the pointer is truncated and the kernel crashes. Reported-by:

When overcommit is disabled, the core VM accounts for pages used by anonymous shared, private mappings and special mappings. It keeps track of VMAs that should be accounted for with VM_ACCOUNT and VMAs that never had a reserve with VM_NORESERVE. Overcommit for hugetlbfs is much riskier than overcommit for base pages due to contiguity requirements. It avoids overcommiting on both shared and private mappings using reservation counters that are checked and updated during mmap(). This ensures (within limits) that hugepages exist in the future when faults occurs or it is too easy to applications to be SIGKILLed. As hugetlbfs makes its own reservations of a different unit to the base page size, VM_ACCOUNT should never be set. Even if the units were correct, we would double account for the usage in the core VM and hugetlbfs. VM_NORESERVE may be set because an application can request no reserves be made for hugetlbfs at the risk of getting killed later. With commit fc8744ad, VM_NORESERVE and VM_ACCOUNT are getting unconditionally set for hugetlbfs-backed mappings. This breaks the accounting for both the core VM and hugetlbfs, can trigger an OOM storm when hugepage pools are too small lockups and corrupted counters otherwise are used. This patch brings hugetlbfs more in line with how the core VM treats VM_NORESERVE but prevents VM_ACCOUNT being set. Signed-off-by:

The new legacy_mem file in sysfs is causing problems with X on machines that don't support legacy memory access. The way I initially implemented it, we would fail with -ENXIO when trying to mmap it, thus exposing to X that we do support the API but there is no legacy memory. Unfortunately, X poor error handling is causing it to fail to start when it gets this error. This implements a workaround hack that instead maps anonymous memory instead (using shmem if VM_SHARED is set, just like /dev/zero does). Signed-off-by: -

It's because there was removed clearing of interrupts in gfar_schedule_cleanup() (which is called by an interrupt handler) in case when netif scheduling has been disabled.

Btrfs was using spin_is_contended to see if it should drop locks before doing extent allocations during btrfs_search_slot. The idea was to avoid expensive searches in the tree unless the lock was actually contended. But, spin_is_contended is specific to the ticket spinlocks on x86, so this is causing compile errors everywhere else. In practice, the contention could easily appear some time after we started doing the extent allocation, and it makes more sense to always drop the lock instead.
