Move the current builtin initram compression algorithm selection from
the Makefile into the INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION variable. This makes
deciding algorithm precedence easier and would allow for overrides if
new algorithms want to be tested.

kdb_trap_printk allows to pass normal printk() messages to kdb via
vkdb_printk(). For example, it is used to get backtrace using the
classic show_stack(), see kdb_show_stack().
vkdb_printf() tries to avoid a potential infinite loop by disabling the
trap. But this approach is racy, for example:
CPU1 CPU2
vkdb_printf()
// assume that kdb_trap_printk == 0
saved_trap_printk = kdb_trap_printk;
kdb_trap_printk = 0;
kdb_show_stack()
kdb_trap_printk++;
Problem1: Now, a nested printk() on CPU0 calls vkdb_printf()
even when it should have been disabled. It will not
cause a deadlock but...
// using the outdated saved value: 0
kdb_trap_printk = saved_trap_printk;
kdb_trap_printk--;
Problem2: Now, kdb_trap_printk == -1 and will stay like this.
It means that all messages will get passed to kdb from
now on.
This patch removes the racy saved_trap_printk handling. Instead, the
recursion is prevented by a check for the locked CPU.
The solution is still kind of racy. A non-related printk(), from
another process, might get trapped by vkdb_printf(). And the wanted
printk() might not get trapped because kdb_printf_cpu is assigned. But
this problem existed even with the original code.
A proper solution would be to get_cpu() before setting kdb_trap_printk
and trap messages only from this CPU. I am not sure if it is worth the
effort, though.
In fact, the race is very theoretical. When kdb is running any of the
commands that use kdb_trap_printk there is a single active CPU and the
other CPUs should be in a holding pen inside kgdb_cpu_enter().
The only time this is violated is when there is a timeout waiting for
the other CPUs to report to the holding pen.
Finally, note that the situation is a bit schizophrenic. vkdb_printf()
explicitly allows recursion but only from KDB code that calls
kdb_printf() directly. On the other hand, the generic printk()
recursion is not allowed because it might cause an infinite loop. This
is why we could not hide the decision inside vkdb_printf() easily.

kdb_printf_lock does not prevent other CPUs from entering the critical
section because it is ignored when KDB_STATE_PRINTF_LOCK is set.
The problematic situation might look like:
CPU0 CPU1
vkdb_printf()
if (!KDB_STATE(PRINTF_LOCK))
KDB_STATE_SET(PRINTF_LOCK);
spin_lock_irqsave(&kdb_printf_lock, flags);
vkdb_printf()
if (!KDB_STATE(PRINTF_LOCK))
BANG: The PRINTF_LOCK state is set and CPU1 is entering the critical
section without spinning on the lock.
The problem is that the code tries to implement locking using two state
variables that are not handled atomically. Well, we need a custom
locking because we want to allow reentering the critical section on the
very same CPU.
Let's use solution from Petr Zijlstra that was proposed for a similar
scenario, see
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20161018171513.734367391@infradead.org
This patch uses the same trick with cmpxchg(). The only difference is
that we want to handle only recursion from the same context and
therefore we disable interrupts.
In addition, KDB_STATE_PRINTF_LOCK is removed. In fact, we are not able
to set it a non-racy way.

kdb_event state variable is only set but never checked in the kernel
code.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/kdb/msg01733.html suggests that this
variable affected WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED() in the original
implementation. But this check never went upstream.
The semantic is unclear and racy. The value is updated after the
kdb_printf_lock is acquired and after it is released. It should be
symmetric at minimum. The value should be manipulated either inside or
outside the locked area.
Fortunately, it seems that the original function is gone and we could
simply remove the state variable.

We've got a delay loop waiting for secondary CPUs. That loop uses
loops_per_jiffy. However, loops_per_jiffy doesn't actually mean how
many tight loops make up a jiffy on all architectures. It is quite
common to see things like this in the boot log:
Calibrating delay loop (skipped), value calculated using timer
frequency.. 48.00 BogoMIPS (lpj=24000)
In my case I was seeing lots of cases where other CPUs timed out
entering the debugger only to print their stack crawls shortly after the
kdb> prompt was written.
Elsewhere in kgdb we already use udelay(), so that should be safe enough
to use to implement our timeout. We'll delay 1 ms for 1000 times, which
should give us a full second of delay (just like the old code wanted)
but allow us to notice that we're done every 1 ms.

Update the driver code so that we do bulk updates of the page reference
count instead of just incrementing it by one reference at a time. The
advantage to doing this is that we cut down on atomic operations and
this in turn should give us a slight improvement in cycles per packet.
In addition if we eventually move this over to using build_skb the gains
will be more noticeable.

The ARM architecture provides a mechanism for deferring cache line
invalidation in the case of map/unmap. This patch makes use of this
mechanism to avoid unnecessary synchronization.
A secondary effect of this change is that the portion of the page that
has been synchronized for use by the CPU should be writable and could be
passed up the stack (at least on ARM).
The last bit that occurred to me is that on architectures where the
sync_for_cpu call invalidates cache lines we were prefetching and then
invalidating the first 128 bytes of the packet. To avoid that I have
moved the sync up to before we perform the prefetch and allocate the
skbuff so that we can actually make use of it.

Add a function that allows us to batch free a page that has multiple
references outstanding. Specifically this function can be used to drop
a page being used in the page frag alloc cache. With this drivers can
make use of functionality similar to the page frag alloc cache without
having to do any workarounds for the fact that there is no function that
frees multiple references.

Add support for mapping and unmapping a page with attributes.
The primary use for this is currently to allow for us to pass the
DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC attribute when mapping and unmapping a page. On
some architectures such as ARM the synchronization has significant
overhead and if we are already taking care of the sync_for_cpu and
sync_for_device from the driver there isn't much need to handle this in
the map/unmap calls as well.

Patch series "Add support for DMA writable pages being writable by the
network stack", v3.
The first 19 patches in the set add support for the DMA attribute
DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC on multiple platforms/architectures. This is
needed so that we can flag the calls to dma_map/unmap_page so that we do
not invalidate cache lines that do not currently belong to the device.
Instead we have to take care of this in the driver via a call to
sync_single_range_for_cpu prior to freeing the Rx page.
Patch 20 adds support for dma_map_page_attrs and dma_unmap_page_attrs so
that we can unmap and map a page using the DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC
attribute.
Patch 21 adds support for freeing a page that has multiple references
being held by a single caller. This way we can free page fragments that
were allocated by a given driver.
The last 2 patches use these updates in the igb driver, and lay the
groundwork to allow for us to reimplement the use of build_skb.
This patch (of 23):
This change allows us to pass DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC which allows us to
avoid invoking cache line invalidation if the driver will just handle it
later via a sync_for_cpu or sync_for_device call.

Currently in x86_64, the symbol address of phys_base is exported to
vmcoreinfo. Dave Anderson complained this is really useless for his
Crash implementation. Because in user-space utility Crash and
Makedumpfile which exported vmcore information is mainly used for, value
of phys_base is needed to covert virtual address of exported kernel
symbol to physical address. Especially init_level4_pgt, if we want to
access and go over the page table to look up a PA corresponding to VA,
firstly we need calculate
page_dir = SYMBOL(init_level4_pgt) - __START_KERNEL_map + phys_base;
Now in Crash and Makedumpfile, we have to analyze the vmcore elf program
header to get value of phys_base. As Dave said, it would be preferable
if it were readily availabl in vmcoreinfo rather than depending upon the
PT_LOAD semantics.
Hence in this patch change to export the value of phys_base instead of
its virtual address.
And people also complained that KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE exporting is x86_64
only, should be moved into arch dependent function
arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo. Do the moving in this patch.

This reverts commit 0549a3c02efb ("kdump, vmcoreinfo: report memory
sections virtual addresses").
Commit 0549a3c02efb tells the userspace utility makedumpfile the
randomized base address of these memmory sections when mm kaslr is
enabled. However the following patch "kexec: export the value of
phys_base instead of symbol address" makes makedumpfile not need these
addresses any more.
Besides we should use VMCOREINFO_NUMBER to export the value of the
variable so that we can use the existing number_table mechanism of
Makedumpfile to fetch it. So revert it now. If needed we can add it
later.

I was amused to find "unsafe core_pattern" warning having these lines in
/etc/sysctl.conf:
fs.suid_dumpable=2
kernel.core_pattern=/core/core-%e-%p-%E
kernel.core_uses_pid=0
Turns out kernel is formally right. Default core_pattern is just "core",
which doesn't qualify for secure path while setting suid.dumpable.
Hint admins about solution, clarify sysctl names, delete unnecessary '\'
characters (string literals are concatenated regardless) and reformat for
easier grepping.

When running certain database workload on a high-end system with many
CPUs, it was found that spinlock contention in the sigprocmask syscalls
became a significant portion of the overall CPU cycles as shown below.

Looking further into the swapcontext function in glibc, it was found that
the function always call sigprocmask() without checking if there are
changes in the signal mask.
A check was added to the __set_current_blocked() function to avoid taking
the sighand->siglock spinlock if there is no change in the signal mask.
This will prevent unneeded spinlock contention when many threads are
trying to call sigprocmask().
With this patch applied, the spinlock contention in sigprocmask() was
gone.

compaction has been disabled for GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO requests since
the direct compaction was introduced by commit 56de7263fcf3 ("mm:
compaction: direct compact when a high-order allocation fails"). The
main reason is that the migration of page cache pages might recurse back
to fs/io layer and we could potentially deadlock. This is overly
conservative because all the anonymous memory is migrateable in the
GFP_NOFS context just fine. This might be a large portion of the memory
in many/most workkloads.
Remove the GFP_NOFS restriction and make sure that we skip all fs pages
(those with a mapping) while isolating pages to be migrated. We cannot
consider clean fs pages because they might need a metadata update so
only isolate pages without any mapping for nofs requests.
The effect of this patch will be probably very limited in many/most
workloads because higher order GFP_NOFS requests are quite rare,
although different configurations might lead to very different results.
David Chinner has mentioned a heavy metadata workload with 64kB block
which to quote him:
: Unfortunately, there was an era of cargo cult configuration tweaks in the
: Ceph community that has resulted in a large number of production machines
: with XFS filesystems configured this way. And a lot of them store large
: numbers of small files and run under significant sustained memory
: pressure.
:
: I slowly working towards getting rid of these high order allocations and
: replacing them with the equivalent number of single page allocations, but
: I haven't got that (complex) change working yet.
We can do the following to simulate that workload:
$ mkfs.xfs -f -n size=64k <dev>
$ mount <dev> /mnt/scratch
$ time ./fs_mark -D 10000 -S0 -n 100000 -s 0 -L 32 \
-d /mnt/scratch/0 -d /mnt/scratch/1 \
-d /mnt/scratch/2 -d /mnt/scratch/3 \
-d /mnt/scratch/4 -d /mnt/scratch/5 \
-d /mnt/scratch/6 -d /mnt/scratch/7 \
-d /mnt/scratch/8 -d /mnt/scratch/9 \
-d /mnt/scratch/10 -d /mnt/scratch/11 \
-d /mnt/scratch/12 -d /mnt/scratch/13 \
-d /mnt/scratch/14 -d /mnt/scratch/15
and indeed is hammers the system with many high order GFP_NOFS requests as
per a simle tracepoint during the load:
$ echo '!(gfp_flags & 0x80) && (gfp_flags &0x400000)' > $TRACE_MNT/events/kmem/mm_page_alloc/filter
I am getting

This suggests that the patch has helped even though there is not all that
much of anonymous memory as the workload mostly generates fs metadata. I
assume the success rate would be higher with more anonymous memory which
should be the case in many workloads.

NMI handler doesn't call set_irq_regs(), it's set only by normal IRQ.
Thus get_irq_regs() returns NULL or stale registers snapshot with IP/SP
pointing to the code interrupted by IRQ which was interrupted by NMI.
NULL isn't a problem: in this case watchdog calls dump_stack() and
prints full stack trace including NMI. But if we're stuck in IRQ
handler then NMI watchlog will print stack trace without IRQ part at
all.
This patch uses registers snapshot passed into NMI handler as arguments:
these registers point exactly to the instruction interrupted by NMI.

This reverts commit 6d31e3ba232ea22458b2f36b6d3f2f9f11bf3fa4.
This causes bootup problems for me both on my laptop and my desktop.
What they have in common is that they have NVMe disks with dm-crypt, but
it's not the same controller, so it's not controller-specific.
Jens does not see it on his machine (also NVMe), so it's presumably
something that triggers just on bootup. Possibly related to dm-crypt
and the fact that I mark my luks volume with "allow-discards" in
/etc/crypttab.
It's 100% repeatable for me, which made it fairly straightforward to
bisect the problem to this commit. Small mercies.
So we don't know what the reason is yet, but the revert is needed to get
things going again.

Previously, when the ata device was being initialized we were
probing for NCQ prio support by checking the identify information
and also checking the log page that holds information about ncq prio
support.
This caused an error on an Intel HBA so the code is now updated to
only probe for NCQ prio support when the sysfs variable controlling
NCQ prio support is enabled.

For several devices, the rootwait time is sensitive because it directly
affects booting time. The polling interval of rootwait is currently
100ms. To save unnessesary waiting time, reduce the polling interval to
5 ms.

We have observed page allocations failures of order 4 during core dump
while trying to allocate vma_filesz. This results in a useless core
file of size 0. To improve reliability use vmalloc().
Note that the vmalloc() allocation is bounded by sysctl_max_map_count,
which is 65,530 by default. So with a 4k page size, and 8 bytes per
seg, this is a max of 128 pages or an order 7 allocation. Other parts
of the core dump path, such as fill_files_note() are already using
vmalloc() for presumably similar reasons.

I generated a patch with `git format-patch` which checkpatch thinks is
invalid:
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl lpc-dt/0006-mfd-dt-Move-syscon-bindings-to-syscon-subdirectory.patch
WARNING: added, moved or deleted file(s), does MAINTAINERS need updating?
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/{ => syscon}/aspeed-scu.txt | 0
ERROR: Does not appear to be a unified-diff format patch
total: 1 errors, 1 warnings, 0 lines checked
NOTE: For some of the reported defects, checkpatch may be able to
mechanically convert to the typical style using --fix or --fix-inplace.
lpc-dt/0006-mfd-dt-Move-syscon-bindings-to-syscon-subdirectory.patch has style problems, please review.
NOTE: If any of the errors are false positives, please report
them to the maintainer, see CHECKPATCH in MAINTAINERS.
The patch in question was all renames with no edits, giving 100%
similarity and thus no diff markers.
Set '$is_patch = 1;' in the add/remove/rename detection to avoid
generating spurious warnings.

Tools contains user space code so uintX_t types are just fine.
