The osst driver is becoming obsolete, as the manufacturer went out of
business ages ago, and the maintainer has no means of testing any
improvements anymore. Plus these days flash drives are cheaper and offer a
higher capacity. So drop it completely.

Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:
"This contains an assortment of RISC-V related patches that I'd like to
target for the 5.2 merge window. Most of the patches are cleanups, but
there are a handful of user-visible changes:
- The nosmp and nr_cpus command-line arguments are now supported,
which work like normal.
- The SBI console no longer installs itself as a preferred console,
we rely on standard mechanisms (/chosen, command-line, hueristics)
instead.
- sfence_remove_sfence_vma{,_asid} now pass their arguments along to
the SBI call.
- Modules now support BUG().
- A missing sfence.vma during boot has been added. This bug only
manifests during boot.
- The arch/riscv support for SiFive's L2 cache controller has been
merged, which should un-block the EDAC framework work.
I've only tested this on QEMU again, as I didn't have time to get
things running on the Unleashed. The latest master from this morning

Currently on panic, kernel will lower the loglevel and print out pending
printk msg only with console_flush_on_panic().
Add an option for users to configure the "panic_print" to replay all
dmesg in buffer, some of which they may have never seen due to the
loglevel setting, which will help panic debugging .

i2c_new_dummy is typically called from the probe function of the
driver for the primary i2c client. It requires calls to
i2c_unregister_device in the error path of the probe function and
in the remove function.
This can be simplified by introducing a device-managed version.
Note the changed error case return value type: i2c_new_dummy returns
NULL whilst devm_i2c_new_dummy_device returns an ERR_PTR.

Pull misc AFS fixes from David Howells:
"This fixes a set of miscellaneous issues in the afs filesystem,
including:
- leak of keys on file close.
- broken error handling in xattr functions.
- missing locking when updating VL server list.
- volume location server DNS lookup whereby preloaded cells may not
ever get a lookup and regular DNS lookups to maintain server lists
consume power unnecessarily.
- incorrect error propagation and handling in the fileserver
iteration code causes operations to sometimes apparently succeed.
- interruption of server record check/update side op during
fileserver iteration causes uninterruptible main operations to fail
unexpectedly.
- callback promise expiry time miscalculation.
- over invalidation of the callback promise on directories.
- double locking on callback break waking up file locking waiters.
- double increment of the vnode callback break counter.
Note that it makes some changes outside of the afs code, including:
- an extra parameter to dns_query() to allow the dns_resolver key
just accessed to be immediately invalidated. AFS is caching the
results itself, so the key can be discarded.
- an interruptible version of wait_var_event().
- an rxrpc function to allow the maximum lifespan to be set on a
call.
- a way for an rxrpc call to be marked as non-interruptible"

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- Improve DM snapshot target's scalability by using finer grained
locking. Requires some list_bl interface improvements.
- Add ability for DM integrity to use a bitmap mode, that tracks
regions where data and metadata are out of sync, instead of using a
journal.
- Improve DM thin provisioning target to not write metadata changes to
disk if the thin-pool and associated thin devices are merely
activated but not used. This avoids metadata corruption due to
concurrent activation of thin devices across different OS instances
(e.g. split brain scenarios, which ultimately would be avoided if
proper device filters were used -- but not having proper filtering
has proven a very common configuration mistake)
- Fix missing call to path selector type->end_io in DM multipath. This
fixes reported performance problems due to inaccurate path selector
IO accounting causing an imbalance of IO (e.g. avoiding issuing IO to
particular path due to it seemingly being heavily used).
- Fix bug in DM cache metadata's loading of its discard bitset that
could lead to all cache blocks being discarded if the very first
cache block was discarded (thankfully in practice the first cache
block is generally in use; be it FS superblock, partition table, disk
label, etc).
- Add testing-only DM dust target which simulates a device that has
failing sectors and/or read failures.
- Fix a DM init error path reference count hang that caused boot hangs
if user supplied malformed input on kernel commandline.
- Fix a couple issues with DM crypt target's logging being overly
verbose or lacking context.
- Various other small fixes to DM init, DM multipath, DM zoned, and DM
crypt.

Allow kernel services using AF_RXRPC to indicate that a call should be
non-interruptible. This allows kafs to make things like lock-extension and
writeback data storage calls non-interruptible.
If this is set, signals will be ignored for operations on that call where
possible - such as waiting to get a call channel on an rxrpc connection.
It doesn't prevent UDP sendmsg from being interrupted, but that will be
handled by packet retransmission.
rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() isn't affected by this since that never waits,
preferring instead to return -EAGAIN and leave the waiting to the caller.
Userspace initiated calls can't be set to be uninterruptible at this time.

The maximum number of unique System V IPC identifiers was limited to
32k. That limit should be big enough for most use cases.
However, there are some users out there requesting for more, especially
those that are migrating from Solaris which uses 24 bits for unique
identifiers. To satisfy the need of those users, a new boot time kernel
option "ipcmni_extend" is added to extend the IPCMNI value to 16M. This
is a 512X increase which should be big enough for users out there that
need a large number of unique IPC identifier.
The use of this new option will change the pattern of the IPC
identifiers returned by functions like shmget(2). An application that
depends on such pattern may not work properly. So it should only be
used if the users really need more than 32k of unique IPC numbers.
This new option does have the side effect of reducing the maximum number
of unique sequence numbers from 64k down to 128. So it is a trade-off.
The computation of a new IPC id is not done in the performance critical
path. So a little bit of additional overhead shouldn't have any real
performance impact.

Patch series "mm: Randomize free memory", v10.
This patch (of 3):
Randomization of the page allocator improves the average utilization of
a direct-mapped memory-side-cache. Memory side caching is a platform
capability that Linux has been previously exposed to in HPC
(high-performance computing) environments on specialty platforms. In
that instance it was a smaller pool of high-bandwidth-memory relative to
higher-capacity / lower-bandwidth DRAM. Now, this capability is going
to be found on general purpose server platforms where DRAM is a cache in
front of higher latency persistent memory [1].
Robert offered an explanation of the state of the art of Linux
interactions with memory-side-caches [2], and I copy it here:
It's been a problem in the HPC space:
http://www.nersc.gov/research-and-development/knl-cache-mode-performance-coe/
A kernel module called zonesort is available to try to help:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/xeon-phi-software
and this abandoned patch series proposed that for the kernel:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170823100205.17311-1-lukasz.daniluk@intel.com
Dan's patch series doesn't attempt to ensure buffers won't conflict, but
also reduces the chance that the buffers will. This will make performance
more consistent, albeit slower than "optimal" (which is near impossible
to attain in a general-purpose kernel). That's better than forcing
users to deploy remedies like:
"To eliminate this gradual degradation, we have added a Stream
measurement to the Node Health Check that follows each job;
nodes are rebooted whenever their measured memory bandwidth
falls below 300 GB/s."
A replacement for zonesort was merged upstream in commit cc9aec03e58f
("x86/numa_emulation: Introduce uniform split capability"). With this
numa_emulation capability, memory can be split into cache sized
("near-memory" sized) numa nodes. A bind operation to such a node, and
disabling workloads on other nodes, enables full cache performance.
However, once the workload exceeds the cache size then cache conflicts
are unavoidable. While HPC environments might be able to tolerate
time-scheduling of cache sized workloads, for general purpose server
platforms, the oversubscribed cache case will be the common case.
The worst case scenario is that a server system owner benchmarks a
workload at boot with an un-contended cache only to see that performance
degrade over time, even below the average cache performance due to
excessive conflicts. Randomization clips the peaks and fills in the
valleys of cache utilization to yield steady average performance.
Here are some performance impact details of the patches:
1/ An Intel internal synthetic memory bandwidth measurement tool, saw a
3X speedup in a contrived case that tries to force cache conflicts.
The contrived cased used the numa_emulation capability to force an
instance of the benchmark to be run in two of the near-memory sized
numa nodes. If both instances were placed on the same emulated they
would fit and cause zero conflicts. While on separate emulated nodes
without randomization they underutilized the cache and conflicted
unnecessarily due to the in-order allocation per node.
2/ A well known Java server application benchmark was run with a heap
size that exceeded cache size by 3X. The cache conflict rate was 8%
for the first run and degraded to 21% after page allocator aging. With
randomization enabled the rate levelled out at 11%.
3/ A MongoDB workload did not observe measurable difference in
cache-conflict rates, but the overall throughput dropped by 7% with
randomization in one case.
4/ Mel Gorman ran his suite of performance workloads with randomization
enabled on platforms without a memory-side-cache and saw a mix of some
improvements and some losses [3].
While there is potentially significant improvement for applications that
depend on low latency access across a wide working-set, the performance
may be negligible to negative for other workloads. For this reason the
shuffle capability defaults to off unless a direct-mapped
memory-side-cache is detected. Even then, the page_alloc.shuffle=0
parameter can be specified to disable the randomization on those systems.
Outside of memory-side-cache utilization concerns there is potentially
security benefit from randomization. Some data exfiltration and
return-oriented-programming attacks rely on the ability to infer the
location of sensitive data objects. The kernel page allocator, especially
early in system boot, has predictable first-in-first out behavior for
physical pages. Pages are freed in physical address order when first
onlined.
Quoting Kees:
"While we already have a base-address randomization
(CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY), attacks against the same hardware and
memory layouts would certainly be using the predictability of
allocation ordering (i.e. for attacks where the base address isn't
important: only the relative positions between allocated memory).
This is common in lots of heap-style attacks. They try to gain
control over ordering by spraying allocations, etc.
I'd really like to see this because it gives us something similar
to CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM but for the page allocator."
While SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM reduces the predictability of some local slab
caches it leaves vast bulk of memory to be predictably in order allocated.
However, it should be noted, the concrete security benefits are hard to
quantify, and no known CVE is mitigated by this randomization.
Introduce shuffle_free_memory(), and its helper shuffle_zone(), to perform
a Fisher-Yates shuffle of the page allocator 'free_area' lists when they
are initially populated with free memory at boot and at hotplug time. Do
this based on either the presence of a page_alloc.shuffle=Y command line
parameter, or autodetection of a memory-side-cache (to be added in a
follow-on patch).
The shuffling is done in terms of CONFIG_SHUFFLE_PAGE_ORDER sized free
pages where the default CONFIG_SHUFFLE_PAGE_ORDER is MAX_ORDER-1 i.e. 10,
4MB this trades off randomization granularity for time spent shuffling.
MAX_ORDER-1 was chosen to be minimally invasive to the page allocator
while still showing memory-side cache behavior improvements, and the
expectation that the security implications of finer granularity
randomization is mitigated by CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM. The
performance impact of the shuffling appears to be in the noise compared to
other memory initialization work.
This initial randomization can be undone over time so a follow-on patch is
introduced to inject entropy on page free decisions. It is reasonable to
ask if the page free entropy is sufficient, but it is not enough due to
the in-order initial freeing of pages. At the start of that process
putting page1 in front or behind page0 still keeps them close together,
page2 is still near page1 and has a high chance of being adjacent. As
more pages are added ordering diversity improves, but there is still high
page locality for the low address pages and this leads to no significant
impact to the cache conflict rate.

Psi monitor aims to provide a low-latency short-term pressure detection
mechanism configurable by users. It allows users to monitor psi metrics
growth and trigger events whenever a metric raises above user-defined
threshold within user-defined time window.
Time window and threshold are both expressed in usecs. Multiple psi
resources with different thresholds and window sizes can be monitored
concurrently.
Psi monitors activate when system enters stall state for the monitored
psi metric and deactivate upon exit from the stall state. While system
is in the stall state psi signal growth is monitored at a rate of 10
times per tracking window. Min window size is 500ms, therefore the min
monitoring interval is 50ms. Max window size is 10s with monitoring
interval of 1s.
When activated psi monitor stays active for at least the duration of one
tracking window to avoid repeated activations/deactivations when psi
signal is bouncing.
Notifications to the users are rate-limited to one per tracking window.
