The plan for these patches is to introduce the typedef, initially just
as documentation ("These functions should return a VM_FAULT_ status").
We'll trickle the patches to individual drivers/filesystems in through
the maintainers, as far as possible. Then we'll change the typedef to
an unsigned int and break the compilation of any unconverted
drivers/filesystems.
vmf_insert_page(), vmf_insert_mixed() and vmf_insert_pfn() are three
newly added functions. The various drivers/filesystems where return
value of fault(), huge_fault(), page_mkwrite() and pfn_mkwrite() get
converted, will need them. These functions will return correct
VM_FAULT_ code based on err value.
We've had bugs before where drivers returned -EFOO. And we have this
silly inefficiency where vm_insert_xxx() return an errno which (afaict)
every driver then converts into a VM_FAULT code. In many cases drivers
failed to return correct VM_FAULT code value despite of vm_insert_xxx()
fails. We have indentified and clean up all those existing bugs and
silly inefficiencies in driver/filesystems by adding these three new
inline wrappers. As mentioned above, we will trickle those patches to
individual drivers/filesystems in through maintainers after these three
wrapper functions are merged.
Eventually we can convert vm_insert_xxx() into vmf_insert_xxx() and
remove these inline wrappers, but these are a good intermediate step.

Kswapd will not wakeup if per-zone watermarks are not failing or if too
many previous attempts at background reclaim have failed.
This can be true if there is a lot of free memory available. For high-
order allocations, kswapd is responsible for waking up kcompactd for
background compaction. If the zone is not below its watermarks or
reclaim has recently failed (lots of free memory, nothing left to
reclaim), kcompactd does not get woken up.
When __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is not allowed, allow kcompactd to still be
woken up even if kswapd will not reclaim. This allows high-order
allocations, such as thp, to still trigger background compaction even
when the zone has an abundance of free memory.

During the reclaiming slab of a memcg, shrink_slab iterates over all
registered shrinkers in the system, and tries to count and consume
objects related to the cgroup. In case of memory pressure, this behaves
bad: I observe high system time and time spent in list_lru_count_one()
for many processes on RHEL7 kernel.
This patch makes list_lru_node::memcg_lrus rcu protected, that allows to
skip taking spinlock in list_lru_count_one().
Shakeel Butt with the patch observes significant perf graph change. He
says:

Patch series "zsmalloc/zram: drop zram's max_zpage_size", v3.
ZRAM's max_zpage_size is a bad thing. It forces zsmalloc to store
normal objects as huge ones, which results in bigger zsmalloc memory
usage. Drop it and use actual zsmalloc huge-class value when decide if
the object is huge or not.
This patch (of 2):
Not every object can be share its zspage with other objects, e.g. when
the object is as big as zspage or nearly as big a zspage. For such
objects zsmalloc has a so called huge class - every object which belongs
to huge class consumes the entire zspage (which consists of a physical
page). On x86_64, PAGE_SHIFT 12 box, the first non-huge class size is
3264, so starting down from size 3264, objects can share page(-s) and
thus minimize memory wastage.
ZRAM, however, has its own statically defined watermark for huge
objects, namely "3 * PAGE_SIZE / 4 = 3072", and forcibly stores every
object larger than this watermark (3072) as a PAGE_SIZE object, in other
words, to a huge class, while zsmalloc can keep some of those objects in
non-huge classes. This results in increased memory consumption.
zsmalloc knows better if the object is huge or not. Introduce
zs_huge_class_size() function which tells if the given object can be
stored in one of non-huge classes or not. This will let us to drop
ZRAM's huge object watermark and fully rely on zsmalloc when we decide
if the object is huge.

Thanks to commit 4b3ef9daa4fc ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB
trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap
device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the
address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space
from being freed during accessing.
The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture
specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous
pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in some cases
there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff,
for example,
CPU1 CPU2
__get_user_pages() swapoff()
flush_dcache_page()
mapping = page_mapping()
... exit_swap_address_space()
... kvfree(spaces)
mapping_mapped(mapping)
The address space may be accessed after being freed.
But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care
about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be
used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures
follows this too. They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and
whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the
dcache immediately. And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap)
to find all user space mappings. While mapping_mapped() and
mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all.
So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping()
is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL
otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are
replaced with page_mapping_file().

When device-dax is operating in huge-page mode we want it to behave like
hugetlbfs and report the MMU page mapping size that is being enforced by
the vma.
Similar to commit 31383c6865a5 "mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->split() to
vm_operations_struct" it would be messy to teach vma_mmu_pagesize()
about device-dax page mapping sizes in the same (hstate) way that
hugetlbfs communicates this attribute. Instead, these patches introduce
a new ->pagesize() vm operation.

should_failslab() is a convenient function to hook into for directed
error injection into kmalloc(). However, it is only available if a
config flag is set.
The following BCC script, for example, fails kmalloc() calls after a
btrfs umount:
from bcc import BPF
prog = r"""
BPF_HASH(flag);
#include <linux/mm.h>
int kprobe__btrfs_close_devices(void *ctx) {
u64 key = 1;
flag.update(&key, &key);
return 0;
}
int kprobe__should_failslab(struct pt_regs *ctx) {
u64 key = 1;
u64 *res;
res = flag.lookup(&key);
if (res != 0) {
bpf_override_return(ctx, -ENOMEM);
}
return 0;
}
"""
b = BPF(text=prog)
while 1:
b.kprobe_poll()
This patch refactors the should_failslab implementation so that the
function is always available for error injection, independent of flags.
This change would be similar in nature to commit f5490d3ec921 ("block:
Add should_fail_bio() for bpf error injection").

When I see recent change of swap readahead, I am very unhappy about
current code structure which diverges two swap readahead algorithm in
do_swap_page. This patch is to clean it up.
Main motivation is that fault handler doesn't need to be aware of
readahead algorithms but just should call swapin_readahead.
As first step, this patch cleans up a little bit but not perfect (I just
separate for review easier) so next patch will make the goal complete.

You can easily reproduce this by calling madvise(MADV_HWPOISON) twice on
a 1GB hugepage. This happens because get_user_pages_fast() is not aware
of a migration entry on pud that was created in the 1st madvise() event.
I think that conversion to pud-aligned migration entry is working, but
other MM code walking over page table isn't prepared for it. We need
some time and effort to make all this work properly, so this patch
avoids the reported bug by just disabling error handling for 1GB
hugepage.

During memory hotplugging we traverse struct pages three times:
1. memset(0) in sparse_add_one_section()
2. loop in __add_section() to set do: set_page_node(page, nid); and
SetPageReserved(page);
3. loop in memmap_init_zone() to call __init_single_pfn()
This patch removes the first two loops, and leaves only loop 3. All
struct pages are initialized in one place, the same as it is done during
boot.
The benefits:
- We improve memory hotplug performance because we are not evicting the
cache several times and also reduce loop branching overhead.
- Remove condition from hotpath in __init_single_pfn(), that was added
in order to fix the problem that was reported by Bharata in the above
email thread, thus also improve performance during normal boot.
- Make memory hotplug more similar to the boot memory initialization
path because we zero and initialize struct pages only in one
function.
- Simplifies memory hotplug struct page initialization code, and thus
enables future improvements, such as multi-threading the
initialization of struct pages in order to improve hotplug
performance even further on larger machines.

During memory hotplugging the probe routine will leave struct pages
uninitialized, the same as it is currently done during boot. Therefore,
we do not want to access the inside of struct pages before
__init_single_page() is called during onlining.
Because during hotplug we know that pages in one memory block belong to
the same numa node, we can skip the checking. We should keep checking
for the boot case.

During boot we poison struct page memory in order to ensure that no one
is accessing this memory until the struct pages are initialized in
__init_single_page().
This patch adds more scrutiny to this checking by making sure that flags
do not equal the poison pattern when they are accessed. The pattern is
all ones.
Since node id is also stored in struct page, and may be accessed quite
early, we add this enforcement into page_to_nid() function as well.
Note, this is applicable only when NODE_NOT_IN_PAGE_FLAGS=n

Deferred page initialization allows the boot cpu to initialize a small
subset of the system's pages early in boot, with other cpus doing the
rest later on.
It is, however, problematic to know how many pages the kernel needs
during boot. Different modules and kernel parameters may change the
requirement, so the boot cpu either initializes too many pages or runs
out of memory.
To fix that, initialize early pages on demand. This ensures the kernel
does the minimum amount of work to initialize pages during boot and
leaves the rest to be divided in the multithreaded initialization path
(deferred_init_memmap).
The on-demand code is permanently disabled using static branching once
deferred pages are initialized. After the static branch is changed to
false, the overhead is up-to two branch-always instructions if the zone
watermark check fails or if rmqueue fails.
Sergey Senozhatsky noticed that while deferred pages currently make
sense only on NUMA machines (we start one thread per latency node),
CONFIG_NUMA is not a requirement for CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT,
so that is also must be addressed in the patch.

Vlastimil Babka reported about a window issue during which when deferred
pages are initialized, and the current version of on-demand
initialization is finished, allocations may fail. While this is highly
unlikely scenario, since this kind of allocation request must be large,
and must come from interrupt handler, we still want to cover it.
We solve this by initializing deferred pages with interrupts disabled,
and holding node_size_lock spin lock while pages in the node are being
initialized. The on-demand deferred page initialization that comes
later will use the same lock, and thus synchronize with
deferred_init_memmap().
It is unlikely for threads that initialize deferred pages to be
interrupted. They run soon after smp_init(), but before modules are
initialized, and long before user space programs. This is why there is
no adverse effect of having these threads running with interrupts
disabled.

alloc_contig_range() initiates compaction and eventual migration for the
purpose of either CMA or HugeTLB allocations. At present, the reason
code remains the same MR_CMA for either of these cases. Let's make it
MR_CONTIG_RANGE which will appropriately reflect the reason code in both
these cases.

kmalloc_index() return index into an array of kmalloc kmem caches,
therefore should be unsigned.
Space savings with SLUB on trimmed down .config:
add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 6/56 up/down: 85/-557 (-472)
Function old new delta
calculate_sizes 924 983 +59
on_freelist 589 604 +15
init_cache_random_seq 122 127 +5
ext4_mb_init 1206 1210 +4
slab_pad_check.part 270 271 +1
cpu_partial_store 112 113 +1
usersize_show 28 27 -1
...
new_slab 1871 1837 -34
slab_order 204 - -204
This patch start a series of converting SLUB (mostly) to "unsigned int".
1) Most integers in the code are in fact unsigned entities: array
indexes, lengths, buffer sizes, allocation orders. It is therefore
better to use unsigned variables
2) Some integers in the code are either "size_t" or "unsigned long" for
no reason.
size_t usually comes from people trying to maintain type correctness
and figuring out that "sizeof" operator returns size_t or
memset/memcpy takes size_t so should everything passed to it.
However the number of 4GB+ objects in the kernel is very small. Most,
if not all, dynamically allocated objects with kmalloc() or
kmem_cache_create() aren't actually big. Maintaining wide types
doesn't do anything.
64-bit ops are bigger than 32-bit on our beloved x86_64,
so try to not use 64-bit where it isn't necessary
(read: everywhere where integers are integers not pointers)
3) in case of SLAB allocators, there are additional limitations
*) page->inuse, page->objects are only 16-/15-bit,
*) cache size was always 32-bit
*) slab orders are small, order 20 is needed to go 64-bit on x86_64
(PAGE_SIZE << order)
Basically everything is 32-bit except kmalloc(1ULL<<32) which gets
shortcut through page allocator.
Christoph said:
:
: That changes with large base page size on power and ARM64 f.e. but then
: we do not want to encourage larger allocations through slab anyways.

Pull USB/PHY updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of USB and PHY driver patches for 4.17-rc1.
Lots of USB typeC work happened this round, with code moving from the
staging directory into the "real" part of the kernel, as well as new
infrastructure being added to be able to handle the different types of
"roles" that typeC requires.
There is also the normal huge set of USB gadget controller and driver
updates, along with XHCI changes, and a raft of other tiny fixes all
over the USB tree. And the PHY driver updates are merged in here as
well as they interacted with the USB drivers in some places.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"Nothing particularly stands out here, probably because people were
tied up with spectre/meltdown stuff last time around. Still, the main
pieces are:
- Rework of our CPU features framework so that we can whitelist CPUs
that don't require kpti even in a heterogeneous system
- Support for the IDC/DIC architecture extensions, which allow us to
elide instruction and data cache maintenance when writing out
instructions
- Removal of the large memory model which resulted in suboptimal
codegen by the compiler and increased the use of literal pools,
which could potentially be used as ROP gadgets since they are
mapped as executable
- Rework of forced signal delivery so that the siginfo_t is
well-formed and handling of show_unhandled_signals is consolidated
and made consistent between different fault types
- More siginfo cleanup based on the initial patches from Eric
Biederman

Pull time(r) updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A small set of updates for timers and timekeeping:
- The most interesting change is the consolidation of clock MONOTONIC
and clock BOOTTIME.
Clock MONOTONIC behaves now exactly like clock BOOTTIME and does
not longer ignore the time spent in suspend. A new clock
MONOTONIC_ACTIVE is provived which behaves like clock MONOTONIC in
kernels before this change. This allows applications to
programmatically check for the clock MONOTONIC behaviour.
As discussed in the review thread, this has the potential of
breaking user space and we might have to revert this. Knock on wood
that we can avoid that exercise.
- Updates to the NTP mechanism to improve accuracy
- A new kernel internal data structure to aid the ongoing Y2038 work.
- Cleanups and simplifications of the clocksource code.

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"There are a several user visible changes, the rest is mostly invisible
and continues to clean up the whole code base.
User visible changes:
- new mount option nossd_spread (pair for ssd_spread)
- mount option subvolid will detect junk after the number and fail
the mount
- add message after cancelled device replace
- direct module dependency on libcrc32, removed own crc wrappers
- removed user space transaction ioctls
- use lighter locking when reading /proc/self/mounts, RCU instead of
mutex to avoid unnecessary contention
Enhancements:
- skip writeback of last page when truncating file to same size
- send: do not issue unnecessary truncate operations
- mount option token specifiers: use %u for unsigned values, more
validation
- selftests: more tree block validations
qgroups:
- preparatory work for splitting reservation types for data and
metadata, this should allow for more accurate tracking and fix some
issues with underflows or do further enhancements
- split metadata reservations for started and joined transaction so
they do not get mixed up and are accounted correctly at commit time
- with the above, it's possible to revert patch that potentially
deadlocks when trying to make more space by explicitly committing
when the quota limit is hit
- fix root item corruption when multiple same source snapshots are
created with quota enabled
RAID56:
- make sure target is identical to source when raid56 rebuild fails
after dev-replace
- faster rebuild during scrub, batch by stripes and not
block-by-block
- make more use of cached data when rebuilding from a missing device
Fixes:
- null pointer deref when device replace target is missing
- fix fsync after hole punching when using no-holes feature
- fix lockdep splat when allocating percpu data with wrong GFP flags
Cleanups, refactoring, core changes:
- drop redunant parameters from various functions
- kill and opencode trivial helpers
- __cold/__exit function annotations
- dead code removal
- continued audit and documentation of memory barriers
- error handling: handle removal from uuid tree
- error handling: remove handling of impossible condtitons

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"There was a lot of work this cycle fixing bugs that were discovered
after the merge window and getting everything ready where we can
reasonably support fully unprivileged fuse. The bug fixes you already
have and much of the unprivileged fuse work is coming in via other
trees.
Still left for fully unprivileged fuse is figuring out how to cleanly
handle .set_acl and .get_acl in the legacy case, and properly handling
of evm xattrs on unprivileged mounts.
Included in the tree is a cleanup from Alexely that replaced a linked
list with a statically allocated fix sized array for the pid caches,
which simplifies and speeds things up.
Then there is are some cleanups and fixes for the ipc namespace. The
motivation was that in reviewing other code it was discovered that
access ipc objects from different pid namespaces recorded pids in such
a way that when asked the wrong pids were returned. In the worst case
there has been a measured 30% performance impact for sysvipc
semaphores. Other test cases showed no measurable performance impact.
Manfred Spraul and Davidlohr Bueso who tend to work on sysvipc
performance both gave the nod that this is good enough.
Casey Schaufler and James Morris have given their approval to the LSM
side of the changes.
I simplified the types and the code dealing with sysvipc to pass just
kern_ipc_perm for all three types of ipc. Which reduced the header
dependencies throughout the kernel and simplified the lsm code.
Which let me work on the pid fixes without having to worry about
trivial changes causing complete kernel recompiles"
