Andrea Arcangeli 0af4e98b6b thp: madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE)
Add madvise MADV_HUGEPAGE to mark regions that are important to be
hugepage backed.  Return -EINVAL if the vma is not of an anonymous type,
or the feature isn't built into the kernel.  Never silently return
success.

Andrea Arcangeli 71e3aac072 thp: transparent hugepage core
Lately I've been working to make KVM use hugepages transparently without
the usual restrictions of hugetlbfs.  Some of the restrictions I'd like to
see removed:

1) hugepages have to be swappable or the guest physical memory remains
   locked in RAM and can't be paged out to swap

2) if a hugepage allocation fails, regular pages should be allocated
   instead and mixed in the same vma without any failure and without
   userland noticing

3) if some task quits and more hugepages become available in the
   buddy, guest physical memory backed by regular pages should be
   relocated on hugepages automatically in regions under
   madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) (ideally event driven by waking up the
   kernel deamon if the order=HPAGE_PMD_SHIFT-PAGE_SHIFT list becomes
   not null)

4) avoidance of reservation and maximization of use of hugepages whenever
   possible. Reservation (needed to avoid runtime fatal faliures) may be ok for
   1 machine with 1 database with 1 database cache with 1 database cache size
   known at boot time. It's definitely not feasible with a virtualization
   hypervisor usage like RHEV-H that runs an unknown number of virtual machines
   with an unknown size of each virtual machine with an unknown amount of
   pagecache that could be potentially useful in the host for guest not using
   O_DIRECT (aka cache=off).

hugepages in the virtualization hypervisor (and also in the guest!) are
much more important than in a regular host not using virtualization,
becasue with NPT/EPT they decrease the tlb-miss cacheline accesses from 24
to 19 in case only the hypervisor uses transparent hugepages, and they
decrease the tlb-miss cacheline accesses from 19 to 15 in case both the
linux hypervisor and the linux guest both uses this patch (though the
guest will limit the addition speedup to anonymous regions only for
now...).  Even more important is that the tlb miss handler is much slower
on a NPT/EPT guest than for a regular shadow paging or no-virtualization
scenario.  So maximizing the amount of virtual memory cached by the TLB
pays off significantly more with NPT/EPT than without (even if there would
be no significant speedup in the tlb-miss runtime).

The first (and more tedious) part of this work requires allowing the VM to
handle anonymous hugepages mixed with regular pages transparently on
regular anonymous vmas.  This is what this patch tries to achieve in the
least intrusive possible way.  We want hugepages and hugetlb to be used in
a way so that all applications can benefit without changes (as usual we
leverage the KVM virtualization design: by improving the Linux VM at
large, KVM gets the performance boost too).

The most important design choice is: always fallback to 4k allocation if
the hugepage allocation fails!  This is the _very_ opposite of some large
pagecache patches that failed with -EIO back then if a 64k (or similar)
allocation failed...

Second important decision (to reduce the impact of the feature on the
existing pagetable handling code) is that at any time we can split an
hugepage into 512 regular pages and it has to be done with an operation
that can't fail.  This way the reliability of the swapping isn't decreased
(no need to allocate memory when we are short on memory to swap) and it's
trivial to plug a split_huge_page* one-liner where needed without
polluting the VM.  Over time we can teach mprotect, mremap and friends to
handle pmd_trans_huge natively without calling split_huge_page*.  The fact
it can't fail isn't just for swap: if split_huge_page would return -ENOMEM
(instead of the current void) we'd need to rollback the mprotect from the
middle of it (ideally including undoing the split_vma) which would be a
big change and in the very wrong direction (it'd likely be simpler not to
call split_huge_page at all and to teach mprotect and friends to handle
hugepages instead of rolling them back from the middle).  In short the
very value of split_huge_page is that it can't fail.

The collapsing and madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) part will remain separated and
incremental and it'll just be an "harmless" addition later if this initial
part is agreed upon.  It also should be noted that locking-wise replacing
regular pages with hugepages is going to be very easy if compared to what
I'm doing below in split_huge_page, as it will only happen when
page_count(page) matches page_mapcount(page) if we can take the PG_lock
and mmap_sem in write mode.  collapse_huge_page will be a "best effort"
that (unlike split_huge_page) can fail at the minimal sign of trouble and
we can try again later.  collapse_huge_page will be similar to how KSM
works and the madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) will work similar to
madvise(MADV_MERGEABLE).

The default I like is that transparent hugepages are used at page fault
time.  This can be changed with
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled.  The control knob can be set
to three values "always", "madvise", "never" which mean respectively that
hugepages are always used, or only inside madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) regions,
or never used.  /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/defrag instead
controls if the hugepage allocation should defrag memory aggressively
"always", only inside "madvise" regions, or "never".

The pmd_trans_splitting/pmd_trans_huge locking is very solid.  The
put_page (from get_user_page users that can't use mmu notifier like
O_DIRECT) that runs against a __split_huge_page_refcount instead was a
pain to serialize in a way that would result always in a coherent page
count for both tail and head.  I think my locking solution with a
compound_lock taken only after the page_first is valid and is still a
PageHead should be safe but it surely needs review from SMP race point of
view.  In short there is no current existing way to serialize the O_DIRECT
final put_page against split_huge_page_refcount so I had to invent a new
one (O_DIRECT loses knowledge on the mapping status by the time gup_fast
returns so...).  And I didn't want to impact all gup/gup_fast users for
now, maybe if we change the gup interface substantially we can avoid this
locking, I admit I didn't think too much about it because changing the gup
unpinning interface would be invasive.

If we ignored O_DIRECT we could stick to the existing compound refcounting
code, by simply adding a get_user_pages_fast_flags(foll_flags) where KVM
(and any other mmu notifier user) would call it without FOLL_GET (and if
FOLL_GET isn't set we'd just BUG_ON if nobody registered itself in the
current task mmu notifier list yet).  But O_DIRECT is fundamental for
decent performance of virtualized I/O on fast storage so we can't avoid it
to solve the race of put_page against split_huge_page_refcount to achieve
a complete hugepage feature for KVM.

Swap and oom works fine (well just like with regular pages ;).  MMU
notifier is handled transparently too, with the exception of the young bit
on the pmd, that didn't have a range check but I think KVM will be fine
because the whole point of hugepages is that EPT/NPT will also use a huge
pmd when they notice gup returns pages with PageCompound set, so they
won't care of a range and there's just the pmd young bit to check in that
case.

NOTE: in some cases if the L2 cache is small, this may slowdown and waste
memory during COWs because 4M of memory are accessed in a single fault
instead of 8k (the payoff is that after COW the program can run faster).
So we might want to switch the copy_huge_page (and clear_huge_page too) to
not temporal stores.  I also extensively researched ways to avoid this
cache trashing with a full prefault logic that would cow in 8k/16k/32k/64k
up to 1M (I can send those patches that fully implemented prefault) but I
concluded they're not worth it and they add an huge additional complexity
and they remove all tlb benefits until the full hugepage has been faulted
in, to save a little bit of memory and some cache during app startup, but
they still don't improve substantially the cache-trashing during startup
if the prefault happens in >4k chunks.  One reason is that those 4k pte
entries copied are still mapped on a perfectly cache-colored hugepage, so
the trashing is the worst one can generate in those copies (cow of 4k page
copies aren't so well colored so they trashes less, but again this results
in software running faster after the page fault).  Those prefault patches
allowed things like a pte where post-cow pages were local 4k regular anon
pages and the not-yet-cowed pte entries were pointing in the middle of
some hugepage mapped read-only.  If it doesn't payoff substantially with
todays hardware it will payoff even less in the future with larger l2
caches, and the prefault logic would blot the VM a lot.  If one is
emebdded transparent_hugepage can be disabled during boot with sysfs or
with the boot commandline parameter transparent_hugepage=0 (or
transparent_hugepage=2 to restrict hugepages inside madvise regions) that
will ensure not a single hugepage is allocated at boot time.  It is simple
enough to just disable transparent hugepage globally and let transparent
hugepages be allocated selectively by applications in the MADV_HUGEPAGE
region (both at page fault time, and if enabled with the
collapse_huge_page too through the kernel daemon).

This patch supports only hugepages mapped in the pmd, archs that have
smaller hugepages will not fit in this patch alone.  Also some archs like
power have certain tlb limits that prevents mixing different page size in
the same regions so they will not fit in this framework that requires
"graceful fallback" to basic PAGE_SIZE in case of physical memory
fragmentation.  hugetlbfs remains a perfect fit for those because its
software limits happen to match the hardware limits.  hugetlbfs also
remains a perfect fit for hugepage sizes like 1GByte that cannot be hoped
to be found not fragmented after a certain system uptime and that would be
very expensive to defragment with relocation, so requiring reservation.
hugetlbfs is the "reservation way", the point of transparent hugepages is
not to have any reservation at all and maximizing the use of cache and
hugepages at all times automatically.

Some performance result:

Andrea Arcangeli 32dba98e08 thp: _GFP_NO_KSWAPD
Transparent hugepage allocations must be allowed not to invoke kswapd or
any other kind of indirect reclaim (especially when the defrag sysfs is
control disabled).  It's unacceptable to swap out anonymous pages
(potentially anonymous transparent hugepages) in order to create new
transparent hugepages.  This is true for the MADV_HUGEPAGE areas too
(swapping out a kvm virtual machine and so having it suffer an unbearable
slowdown, so another one with guest physical memory marked MADV_HUGEPAGE
can run 30% faster if it is running memory intensive workloads, makes no
sense).  If a transparent hugepage allocation fails the slowdown is minor
and there is total fallback, so kswapd should never be asked to swapout
memory to allow the high order allocation to succeed.

Andrea Arcangeli e7a00c45f2 thp: add pmd_huge_pte to mm_struct
This increase the size of the mm struct a bit but it is needed to
preallocate one pte for each hugepage so that split_huge_page will not
require a fail path.  Guarantee of success is a fundamental property of
split_huge_page to avoid decrasing swapping reliability and to avoid
adding -ENOMEM fail paths that would otherwise force the hugepage-unaware
VM code to learn rolling back in the middle of its pte mangling operations
(if something we need it to learn handling pmd_trans_huge natively rather
being capable of rollback).  When split_huge_page runs a pte is needed to
succeed the split, to map the newly splitted regular pages with a regular
pte.  This way all existing VM code remains backwards compatible by just
adding a split_huge_page* one liner.  The memory waste of those
preallocated ptes is negligible and so it is worth it.

Mel Gorman 9950474883 mm: kswapd: stop high-order balancing when any suitable zone is balanced
Simon Kirby reported the following problem

   We're seeing cases on a number of servers where cache never fully
   grows to use all available memory.  Sometimes we see servers with 4 GB
   of memory that never seem to have less than 1.5 GB free, even with a
   constantly-active VM.  In some cases, these servers also swap out while
   this happens, even though they are constantly reading the working set
   into memory.  We have been seeing this happening for a long time; I
   don't think it's anything recent, and it still happens on 2.6.36.

After some debugging work by Simon, Dave Hansen and others, the prevaling
theory became that kswapd is reclaiming order-3 pages requested by SLUB
too aggressive about it.

There are two apparent problems here.  On the target machine, there is a
small Normal zone in comparison to DMA32.  As kswapd tries to balance all
zones, it would continually try reclaiming for Normal even though DMA32
was balanced enough for callers.  The second problem is that
sleeping_prematurely() does not use the same logic as balance_pgdat() when
deciding whether to sleep or not.  This keeps kswapd artifically awake.

A number of tests were run and the figures from previous postings will
look very different for a few reasons.  One, the old figures were forcing
my network card to use GFP_ATOMIC in attempt to replicate Simon's problem.
 Second, I previous specified slub_min_order=3 again in an attempt to
reproduce Simon's problem.  In this posting, I'm depending on Simon to say
whether his problem is fixed or not and these figures are to show the
impact to the ordinary cases.  Finally, the "vmscan" figures are taken
from /proc/vmstat instead of the tracepoints.  There is less information
but recording is less disruptive.

The first test of relevance was postmark with a process running in the
background reading a large amount of anonymous memory in blocks.  The
objective was to vaguely simulate what was happening on Simon's machine
and it's memory intensive enough to have kswapd awake.

Performance is mildly affected because kswapd is no longer doing as much
work and the background memory consumer process is getting in the way.
Note that kswapd scanned and reclaimed fewer pages as it's less aggressive
and overall fewer pages were scanned and reclaimed.  Swap in/out is
particularly reduced again reflecting kswapd throwing out fewer pages.

The slight performance impact is unfortunate here but it looks like a
direct result of kswapd being less aggressive.  As the bug report is about
too many pages being freed by kswapd, it may have to be accepted for now.

The second test is a streaming IO benchmark that was previously used by
Johannes to show regressions in page reclaim.

Again fewer pages are scanned and reclaimed as expected and this time the
test completed faster.  Note that kswapd is hitting its watermarks faster
(low and high wmark quickly) which I expect is due to kswapd reclaiming
fewer pages.

I also ran fs-mark, iozone and sysbench but there is nothing interesting
to report in the figures.  Performance is not significantly changed and
the reclaim statistics look reasonable.

Tgis patch:

When the allocator enters its slow path, kswapd is woken up to balance the
node.  It continues working until all zones within the node are balanced.
For order-0 allocations, this makes perfect sense but for higher orders it
can have unintended side-effects.  If the zone sizes are imbalanced,
kswapd may reclaim heavily within a smaller zone discarding an excessive
number of pages.  The user-visible behaviour is that kswapd is awake and
reclaiming even though plenty of pages are free from a suitable zone.

This patch alters the "balance" logic for high-order reclaim allowing
kswapd to stop if any suitable zone becomes balanced to reduce the number
of pages it reclaims from other zones.  kswapd still tries to ensure that
order-0 watermarks for all zones are met before sleeping.

Steven Rostedt e20e877958 mm: remove unlikely() from page_mapping()
page_mapping() has a unlikely that the mapping has PAGE_MAPPING_ANON set.
But running the annotated branch profiler on a normal desktop system doing
vairous tasks (xchat, evolution, firefox, distcc), it is not really that
unlikely that the mapping here will have the PAGE_MAPPING_ANON flag set:

The page_mapping() is a static inline, which is why it shows up multiple
times.

The unlikely in page_mapping() was correct a total of 1909540379 times and
incorrect 1270533123 times, with a 39% being incorrect.  With this much of
an error, it's best to simply remove the unlikely and have the compiler
and branch prediction figure this out.

Steven Rostedt 088e54658f mm: remove likely() from mapping_unevictable()
The mapping_unevictable() has a likely() around the mapping parameter.
This mapping parameter comes from page_mapping() which has an unlikely()
that the page will be set as PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, and if so, it will return
NULL.  One would think that this unlikely() means that the mapping
returned by page_mapping() would not be NULL, but where page_mapping() is
used just above mapping_unevictable(), that unlikely() is incorrect most
of the time.  This means that the "likely(mapping)" in
mapping_unevictable() is incorrect most of the time.

Running the annotated branch profiler on my main box which runs firefox,
evolution, xchat and is part of my distcc farm, I had this:

The page_mapping() is a static inline, which is why it shows up multiple
times.  The mapping_unevictable() is also a static inline but seems to be
used only once in my setup.

The unlikely in page_mapping() was correct a total of 1909540379 times and
incorrect 1270533123 times, with a 39% being incorrect.  Perhaps this is
enough to remove the unlikely from page_mapping() as well.

Michel Lespinasse 110d74a921 mm: add FOLL_MLOCK follow_page flag.
Move the code to mlock pages from __mlock_vma_pages_range() to
follow_page().

This allows __mlock_vma_pages_range() to not have to break down work into
16-page batches.

An additional motivation for doing this within the present patch series is
that it'll make it easier for a later chagne to drop mmap_sem when
blocking on disk (we'd like to be able to resume at the page that was read
from disk instead of at the start of a 16-page batch).

Rik van Riel 212260aa07 mm: clear PageError bit in msync & fsync
Temporary IO failures, eg.  due to loss of both multipath paths, can
permanently leave the PageError bit set on a page, resulting in msync or
fsync returning -EIO over and over again, even if IO is now getting to the
disk correctly.

We already clear the AS_ENOSPC and AS_IO bits in mapping->flags in the
filemap_fdatawait_range function.  Also clearing the PageError bit on the
page allows subsequent msync or fsync calls on this file to return without
an error, if the subsequent IO succeeds.

Unfortunately data written out in the msync or fsync call that returned
-EIO can still get lost, because the page dirty bit appears to not get
restored on IO error.  However, the alternative could be potentially all
of memory filling up with uncleanable dirty pages, hanging the system, so
there is no nice choice here...

Mandeep Singh Baines dabb16f639 oom: allow a non-CAP_SYS_RESOURCE proces to oom_score_adj down
We'd like to be able to oom_score_adj a process up/down as it
enters/leaves the foreground.  Currently, it is not possible to oom_adj
down without CAP_SYS_RESOURCE.  This patch allows a task to decrease its
oom_score_adj back to the value that a CAP_SYS_RESOURCE thread set it to
or its inherited value at fork.  Assuming the thread that has forked it
has oom_score_adj of 0, each process could decrease it back from 0 upon
activation unless a CAP_SYS_RESOURCE thread elevated it to something
higher.

Alternative considered:

* a setuid binary
* a daemon with CAP_SYS_RESOURCE

Since you don't wan't all processes to be able to reduce their oom_adj, a
setuid or daemon implementation would be complex.  The alternatives also
have much higher overhead.

This patch updated from original patch based on feedback from David
Rientjes.

David Rientjes d0a21265df mm: unify module_alloc code for vmalloc
Four architectures (arm, mips, sparc, x86) use __vmalloc_area() for
module_init().  Much of the code is duplicated and can be generalized in a
globally accessible function, __vmalloc_node_range().

__vmalloc_node() now calls into __vmalloc_node_range() with a range of
[VMALLOC_START, VMALLOC_END) for functionally equivalent behavior.

Each architecture may then use __vmalloc_node_range() directly to remove
the duplication of code.

Mel Gorman 7f0f24967b mm: migration: cleanup migrate_pages API by matching types for offlining and sync
With the introduction of the boolean sync parameter, the API looks a
little inconsistent as offlining is still an int.  Convert offlining to a
bool for the sake of being tidy.

Mel Gorman 77f1fe6b08 mm: migration: allow migration to operate asynchronously and avoid synchronous compaction in the faster path
Migration synchronously waits for writeback if the initial passes fails.
Callers of memory compaction do not necessarily want this behaviour if the
caller is latency sensitive or expects that synchronous migration is not
going to have a significantly better success rate.

This patch adds a sync parameter to migrate_pages() allowing the caller to
indicate if wait_on_page_writeback() is allowed within migration or not.
For reclaim/compaction, try_to_compact_pages() is first called
asynchronously, direct reclaim runs and then try_to_compact_pages() is
called synchronously as there is a greater expectation that it'll succeed.

Mel Gorman 3e7d344970 mm: vmscan: reclaim order-0 and use compaction instead of lumpy reclaim
Lumpy reclaim is disruptive.  It reclaims a large number of pages and
ignores the age of the pages it reclaims.  This can incur significant
stalls and potentially increase the number of major faults.

Compaction has reached the point where it is considered reasonably stable
(meaning it has passed a lot of testing) and is a potential candidate for
displacing lumpy reclaim.  This patch introduces an alternative to lumpy
reclaim whe compaction is available called reclaim/compaction.  The basic
operation is very simple - instead of selecting a contiguous range of
pages to reclaim, a number of order-0 pages are reclaimed and then
compaction is later by either kswapd (compact_zone_order()) or direct
compaction (__alloc_pages_direct_compact()).

Mel Gorman b44129b306 mm: vmstat: use a single setter function and callback for adjusting percpu thresholds
reduce_pgdat_percpu_threshold() and restore_pgdat_percpu_threshold() exist
to adjust the per-cpu vmstat thresholds while kswapd is awake to avoid

patch replaces them with a single set_pgdat_percpu_threshold() that takes
a callback function to calculate the desired threshold as a parameter.

Mel Gorman 88f5acf88a mm: page allocator: adjust the per-cpu counter threshold when memory is low
Commit aa45484 ("calculate a better estimate of NR_FREE_PAGES when memory
is low") noted that watermarks were based on the vmstat NR_FREE_PAGES.  To
avoid synchronization overhead, these counters are maintained on a per-cpu
basis and drained both periodically and when a threshold is above a
threshold.  On large CPU systems, the difference between the estimate and
real value of NR_FREE_PAGES can be very high.  The system can get into a
case where pages are allocated far below the min watermark potentially
causing livelock issues.  The commit solved the problem by taking a better
reading of NR_FREE_PAGES when memory was low.

Unfortately, as reported by Shaohua Li this accurate reading can consume a
large amount of CPU time on systems with many sockets due to cache line
bouncing.  This patch takes a different approach.  For large machines
where counter drift might be unsafe and while kswapd is awake, the per-cpu
thresholds for the target pgdat are reduced to limit the level of drift to
what should be a safe level.  This incurs a performance penalty in heavy
memory pressure by a factor that depends on the workload and the machine
but the machine should function correctly without accidentally exhausting
all memory on a node.  There is an additional cost when kswapd wakes and
sleeps but the event is not expected to be frequent - in Shaohua's test
case, there was one recorded sleep and wake event at least.

To ensure that kswapd wakes up, a safe version of zone_watermark_ok() is
introduced that takes a more accurate reading of NR_FREE_PAGES when called
from wakeup_kswapd, when deciding whether it is really safe to go back to
sleep in sleeping_prematurely() and when deciding if a zone is really
balanced or not in balance_pgdat().  We are still using an expensive
function but limiting how often it is called.

When the test case is reproduced, the time spent in the watermark
functions is reduced.  The following report is on the percentage of time
spent cumulatively spent in the functions zone_nr_free_pages(),
zone_watermark_ok(), __zone_watermark_ok(), zone_watermark_ok_safe(),
zone_page_state_snapshot(), zone_page_state().

vanilla                      11.6615%
disable-threshold            0.2584%

David said:

: We had to pull aa454840 "mm: page allocator: calculate a better estimate

Eric Dumazet 6c9ae009b2 irq: use per_cpu kstat_irqs
Use modern per_cpu API to increment {soft|hard}irq counters, and use
per_cpu allocation for (struct irq_desc)->kstats_irq instead of an array.

This gives better SMP/NUMA locality and saves few instructions per irq.

With small nr_cpuids values (8 for example), kstats_irq was a small array
(less than L1_CACHE_BYTES), potentially source of false sharing.

In the !CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ case, remove the huge, NUMA/cache unfriendly
kstat_irqs_all[NR_IRQS][NR_CPUS] array.

Note: we still populate kstats_irq for all possible irqs in
early_irq_init().  We probably could use on-demand allocations.  (Code
included in alloc_descs()).  Problem is not all IRQS are used with a prior
alloc_descs() call.

kstat_irqs_this_cpu() is not used anymore, remove it.

Lasse Collin 3ebe12439b decompressors: add boot-time XZ support
This implements the API defined in <linux/decompress/generic.h> which is
used for kernel, initramfs, and initrd decompression.  This patch together
with the first patch is enough for XZ-compressed initramfs and initrd;
XZ-compressed kernel will need arch-specific changes.

The buffering requirements described in decompress_unxz.c are stricter
than with gzip, so the relevant changes should be done to the
arch-specific code when adding support for XZ-compressed kernel.
Similarly, the heap size in arch-specific pre-boot code may need to be
increased (30 KiB is enough).

The XZ decompressor needs memmove(), memeq() (memcmp() == 0), and
memzero() (memset(ptr, 0, size)), which aren't available in all
arch-specific pre-boot environments.  I'm including simple versions in
decompress_unxz.c, but a cleaner solution would naturally be nicer.

Lasse Collin 24fa0402a9 decompressors: add XZ decompressor module
In userspace, the .lzma format has become mostly a legacy file format that
got superseded by the .xz format.  Similarly, LZMA Utils was superseded by
XZ Utils.

These patches add support for XZ decompression into the kernel.  Most of
the code is as is from XZ Embedded <http://tukaani.org/xz/embedded.html>.
It was written for the Linux kernel but is usable in other projects too.

Advantages of XZ over the current LZMA code in the kernel:
  - Nice API that can be used by other kernel modules; it's
    not limited to kernel, initramfs, and initrd decompression.
  - Integrity check support (CRC32)
  - BCJ filters improve compression of executable code on
    certain architectures. These together with LZMA2 can
    produce a few percent smaller kernel or Squashfs images
    than plain LZMA without making the decompression slower.

This patch: Add the main decompression code (xz_dec), testing module
(xz_dec_test), wrapper script (xz_wrap.sh) for the xz command line tool,
and documentation.  The xz_dec module is enough to have a usable XZ
decompressor e.g.  for Squashfs.

Alexander Gordeev 025b40abe7 ntp: add hardpps implementation
This commit adds hardpps() implementation based upon the original one from
the NTPv4 reference kernel code from David Mills.  However, it is highly
optimized towards very fast syncronization and maximum stickness to PPS
signal.  The typical error is less then a microsecond.

To make it sync faster I had to throw away exponential phase filter so
that the full phase offset is corrected immediately.  Then I also had to
throw away median phase filter because it gives a bigger error itself if
used without exponential filter.

Maybe we will find an appropriate filtering scheme in the future but it's
not necessary if the signal quality is ok.

Alexander Gordeev 3003d55b59 pps: fix race in PPS_FETCH handler
There was a race in PPS_FETCH ioctl handler when several processes want to
obtain PPS data simultaneously using sleeping PPS_FETCH.  They all sleep
most of the time in the system call.

With the old approach when the first process waiting on the pps queue is
waken up it makes new system call right away and zeroes pps->go.  So other
processes continue to sleep.  This is a clear race condition because of
the global 'go' variable.

With the new approach pps->last_ev holds some value increasing at each PPS
event.  PPS_FETCH ioctl handler saves current value to the local variable
at the very beginning so it can safely check that there is a new event by
just comparing both variables.

Andres Salomon 1b912c1bca drivers/gpio/cs5535-gpio.c: add some additional cs5535-specific GPIO functionality
This adds (well, re-adds actually) handling for events/IRQs through cs5535
GPIOs.  In the wild and wooly world of CS5535, setup_event() is for
assigning an IRQ to a GPIO filter/event pair, and set_irq() sets up the
pair to trigger IRQs.

These should really only be used in highly platform-specific drivers (such
as OLPC's DCON driver).  Sadly, because set_irq() uses MSRs, this causes
the driver to become X86-specific.

Mikael Pettersson f670d0ecda binfmt_elf: cleanups
This cleans up a few bits in binfmt_elf.c and binfmts.h:

- the hasvdso field in struct linux_binfmt is unused, so remove it and
  the only initialization of it

- the elf_map CPP symbol is not defined anywhere in the kernel, so
  remove an unnecessary #ifndef elf_map

- reduce excessive indentation in elf_format's initializer

- add missing spaces, remove extraneous spaces

No functional changes, but tested on x86 (32 and 64 bit), powerpc (32 and
64 bit), sparc64, arm, and alpha.

Dan Rosenberg 455cd5ab30 kptr_restrict for hiding kernel pointers from unprivileged users
Add the %pK printk format specifier and the /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
sysctl.

The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers,
specifically via /proc interfaces.  Exposing these pointers provides an
easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the
locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function
pointers.  The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl.

If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior
occurs.  If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user
(intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG
(currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's.
 If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as
0's regardless of privileges.  Replacing with 0's was chosen over the
default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects
"(nil)".

Andrew Morton 71a9048448 include/linux/kernel.h: abs(): fix handling of 32-bit unsigneds on 64-bit
Michal reports:

In the framebuffer subsystem the abs() macro is often used as a part of
the calculation of a Manhattan metric, which in turn is used as a measure
of similarity between video modes.  The arguments of abs() are sometimes
unsigned numbers.  This worked fine until commit a49c59c0 ("Make sure the
value in abs() does not get truncated if it is greater than 2^32:) , which
changed the definition of abs() to prevent truncation.  As a result of
this change, in the following piece of code:

u32 a = 0, b = 1;
u32 c = abs(a - b);

'c' will end up with a value of 0xffffffff instead of the expected 0x1.

A problem caused by this change and visible by the end user is that
framebuffer drivers relying on functions from modedb.c will fail to find
high resolution video modes similar to that explicitly requested by the
user if an exact match cannot be found (see e.g.

Fix this by special-casing `long' types within abs().

This patch reduces x86_64 code size a bit - drivers/video/uvesafb.o shrunk
by 15 bytes, presumably because it is doing abs() on 4-byte quantities,
and expanding those to 8-byte longs adds code.

testcase:

#define oldabs(x) ({				\
		long __x = (x);			\
		(__x < 0) ? -__x : __x;		\
	})

#define newabs(x) ({						\
		long ret;					\
		if (sizeof(x) == sizeof(long)) {		\
			long __x = (x);				\
			ret = (__x < 0) ? -__x : __x;		\
		} else {					\
			int __x = (x);				\
			ret = (__x < 0) ? -__x : __x;		\
		}						\
		ret;						\
	})

typedef unsigned int u32;

main()
{
	u32 a = 0;
	u32 b = 1;
	u32 oldc = oldabs(a - b);
	u32 newc = newabs(a - b);

	printf("%u %u\n", oldc, newc);

Arun Murthy 61a83932b8 leds-lp5521: modify the way of setting led device name
Currently the led device name is fetched from the device_type in
I2C_BOARD_INFO which comes from the platform data.  This name is in turn
used to create an entry in sysfs.

If there exists two or more lp5521 on a particular platform, the
device_type in I2C_BOARD_INFO has to be the same, else lp5521 driver probe
wont be called and if used so, results in run time warning "cannot create
sysfs with same name" and hence a failure.

The name that is used to create sysfs entry is to be passed by the struct
led_platform_data.  Hence adding an element of type const char * and
change in lp5521 driver to use this name in creating the led device if
present else use the name obtained by I2C_BOARD_INFO.

potential to be implemented on both BTRFS and EXT4 so we need a generic way to

to fallocate() since it already looks like the normal fallocate() operation.

supposed to do and that BTRFS failed like it was supposed to.  Thank you,

Tejun Heo f363e45fd1 net/ceph: make ceph_msgr_wq non-reentrant
ceph messenger code does a rather complex dancing around multithread
workqueue to make sure the same work item isn't executed concurrently
on different CPUs.  This restriction can be provided by workqueue with
WQ_NON_REENTRANT.

Make ceph_msgr_wq non-reentrant workqueue with the default concurrency
level and remove the QUEUED/BUSY logic.

* This removes backoff handling in con_work() but it couldn't reliably
  block execution of con_work() to begin with - queue_con() can be
  called after the work started but before BUSY is set.  It seems that
  it was an optimization for a rather cold path and can be safely
  removed.

* The number of concurrent work items is bound by the number of
  connections and connetions are independent from each other.  With
  the default concurrency level, different connections will be
  executed independently.

failed to update the #ifdef stanzas guarding the defragmentation related
fields and code in skbuff and conntrack related code in nf_defrag_ipv6.c.

This patch adds the required #ifdefs so that IPv6 tproxy can truly be used
without connection tracking.

Jan Kara f00c9e44ad quota: Fix deadlock during path resolution
As Al Viro pointed out path resolution during Q_QUOTAON calls to quotactl
is prone to deadlocks. We hold s_umount semaphore for reading during the
path resolution and resolution itself may need to acquire the semaphore
for writing when e. g. autofs mountpoint is passed.

Solve the problem by performing the resolution before we get hold of the
superblock (and thus s_umount semaphore). The whole thing is complicated
by the fact that some filesystems (OCFS2) ignore the path argument. So to
distinguish between filesystem which want the path and which do not we
introduce new .quota_on_meta callback which does not get the path. OCFS2
then uses this callback instead of old .quota_on.

Mark Brown e8eef82b2c regulator: Provide a selector based set_voltage_sel() operation
Many regulator drivers implement voltage setting by looping through a
table of possible values, normally because the set of available voltages
can't be mapped onto selectors with simple calcuation. Factor out these
loops by providing a variant of set_voltage() which takes a selector rather
than a voltage range as an argument and implementing a loop through the
available selectors in the core.

This is not going to be suitable for use with all devices as when the
regulator voltage can be mapped onto selector values with a simple
calculation the linear scan through the available values will be more
expensive than just doing the calculation, especially for regulators
that provide fine grained voltage control.

Mark Brown f8c12fe329 regulator: Copy constraints from regulators when initialising them
Currently the regulator API uses the constraints structure passed in to
the core throughout the lifetime of the object. This means that it is not
possible to mark the constraints as __initdata so if the kernel supports
many boards the constraints for all of them are kept around throughout the
lifetime of the system, consuming memory needlessly. By copying constraints
that are actually used we allow the use of __initdata, saving memory when
multiple boards are supported.

This also means the constraints can be const.

Mark Brown 02fa3ec01a regulator: Add basic trace facilities
Provide some basic trace facilities to the regulator API. We generate
events on regulator enable, disable and voltage setting over the actual
hardware operations (which are assumed to be the expensive ones which
require interaction with the actual device). This is intended to facilitate
debug of the performance and behaviour with consumers allowing unified
traces to be generated including the regulator operations within the
context of the other components of the system.

For enable we log the explicit delay for the voltage ramp separately to
the interaction with the hardware to highlight the time consumed in I/O.
We should add a similar delay for voltage changes, though there the
relatively small magnitude of the changes in the context of the I/O
costs makes it much less critical for most regulators.

Only hardware interactions are currently traced as the primary focus is
on the performance and synchronisation of actual hardware interactions.
Additional tracepoints for debugging of the logical operations can be
added later if required.

Michael S. Tsirkin bd2b53b20f KVM: fast-path msi injection with irqfd
Store irq routing table pointer in the irqfd object,
and use that to inject MSI directly without bouncing out to
a kernel thread.

While we touch this structure, rearrange irqfd fields to make fastpath
better packed for better cache utilization.

This also adds some comments about locking rules and rcu usage in code.

Some notes on the design:
- Use pointer into the rt instead of copying an entry,
  to make it possible to use rcu, thus side-stepping
  locking complexities.  We also save some memory this way.
- Old workqueue code is still used for level irqs.
  I don't think we DTRT with level anyway, however,
  it seems easier to keep the code around as
  it has been thought through and debugged, and fix level later than
  rip out and re-instate it later.

Takuya Yoshikawa 515a01279a KVM: pre-allocate one more dirty bitmap to avoid vmalloc()
Currently x86's kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() needs to allocate a bitmap by
vmalloc() which will be used in the next logging and this has been causing
bad effect to VGA and live-migration: vmalloc() consumes extra systime,
triggers tlb flush, etc.

This patch resolves this issue by pre-allocating one more bitmap and switching
between two bitmaps during dirty logging.

Performance improvement:
  I measured performance for the case of VGA update by trace-cmd.
  The result was 1.5 times faster than the original one.

  In the case of live migration, the improvement ratio depends on the workload
  and the guest memory size. In general, the larger the memory size is the more
  benefits we get.

Note:
  This does not change other architectures's logic but the allocation size
  becomes twice. This will increase the actual memory consumption only when
  the new size changes the number of pages allocated by vmalloc().

structure. Provide kvm_write_guest_cached() function that skips
gfn_to_hva() translation if memslots was not changed since previous
invocation.

Gleb Natapov af585b921e KVM: Halt vcpu if page it tries to access is swapped out
If a guest accesses swapped out memory do not swap it in from vcpu thread
context. Schedule work to do swapping and put vcpu into halted state
instead.

Interrupts will still be delivered to the guest and if interrupt will
cause reschedule guest will continue to run another task.

Florian Westphal 2f46e07995 netfilter: ebtables: make broute table work again
broute table init hook sets up the "br_should_route_hook" pointer,
which then gets called from br_input.

commit a386f99025
(bridge: add proper RCU annotation to should_route_hook)
introduced a typedef, and then changed this to:

br_should_route_hook_t *rhook;
[..]
rhook = rcu_dereference(br_should_route_hook);
if (*rhook(skb))

problem is that "br_should_route_hook" contains the address of the function,
so calling *rhook() results in kernel panic.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 925268a06d memory hotplug: one more lock on memory hotplug
Now, memory_hotplug_(un)lock() is used for add/remove/offline pages
for avoiding races with hibernation. But this should be held in
online_pages(), too. It seems asymmetric.

There are cases where one has to avoid a race with memory hotplug
notifier and his own local code, and hotplug v.s. hotplug.
This will add a generic solution for avoiding races. In other view,
having lock here has no big impacts. online pages is tend to be
done by udev script at el against each memory section one by one.

Then, it's better to have lock here, too.

Tejun Heo e159489baa workqueue: relax lockdep annotation on flush_work()
Currently, the lockdep annotation in flush_work() requires exclusive
access on the workqueue the target work is queued on and triggers
warning if a work is trying to flush another work on the same
workqueue; however, this is no longer true as workqueues can now
execute multiple works concurrently.

This patch adds lock_map_acquire_read() and make process_one_work()
hold read access to the workqueue while executing a work and
start_flush_work() check for write access if concurrnecy level is one
or the workqueue has a rescuer (as only one execution resource - the
rescuer - is guaranteed to be available under memory pressure), and
read access if higher.

This better represents what's going on and removes spurious lockdep
warnings which are triggered by fake dependency chain created through
flush_work().

* Peter pointed out that flushing another work from a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
  wq breaks forward progress guarantee under memory pressure.
  Condition check accordingly updated.

This information becomes invalid as soon as node drops
off the bus and when it reconnects, its only possible
to start talking to it after it responded to an ARP packet.
But ARP cache prevents such packets from being sent.

Eric Dumazet bfe0d0298f net_sched: factorize qdisc stats handling
HTB takes into account skb is segmented in stats updates.
Generalize this to all schedulers.

They should use qdisc_bstats_update() helper instead of manipulating
bstats.bytes and bstats.packets

Add bstats_update() helper too for classes that use
gnet_stats_basic_packed fields.

Note : Right now, TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS shortcurt can be taken only if no

Dan Carpenter facb4edc1e phonet: some signedness bugs
Dan Rosenberg pointed out that there were some signed comparison bugs
in the phonet protocol.

http://marc.info/?l=full-disclosure&m=129424528425330&w=2

The problem is that we check for array overflows but "protocol" is
signed and we don't check for array underflows.  If you have already
have CAP_SYS_ADMIN then you could use the bugs to get root, or someone
could cause an oops by mistake.

 |          |            |          | Bus segment 2 |           |
 |  Linux   | GPIO 1..N  |   MUX    |---------------   Devices
 |          |------------|          |               |           |
 |          |            |          | Bus segment M

Eric Dumazet 83723d6071 netfilter: x_tables: dont block BH while reading counters
Using "iptables -L" with a lot of rules have a too big BH latency.
Jesper mentioned ~6 ms and worried of frame drops.

Switch to a per_cpu seqlock scheme, so that taking a snapshot of
counters doesnt need to block BH (for this cpu, but also other cpus).

This adds two increments on seqlock sequence per ipt_do_table() call,
its a reasonable cost for allowing "iptables -L" not block BH
processing.

Eric Sandeen a4ae309486 ext3: speed up file creates by optimizing rec_len functions
The addition of 64k block capability in the rec_len_from_disk
and rec_len_to_disk functions added a bit of math overhead which
slows down file create workloads needlessly when the architecture
cannot even support 64k blocks, thanks to page size limits.

Similar changes already exist in the ext4 codebase.

The directory entry checking can also be optimized a bit
by sprinkling in some unlikely() conditions to move the
error handling out of line.

bonnie++ sequential file creates on a 512MB ramdisk speeds up
from about 77,000/s to about 82,000/s, about a 6% improvement.

Walk through allocation groups and trim all free extents. It can be
invoked through FITRIM ioctl on the file system. The main idea is to
provide a way to trim the whole file system if needed, since some SSD's
may suffer from performance loss after the whole device was filled (it
does not mean that fs is full!).

It search for free extents in allocation groups specified by Byte range
start -> start+len. When the free extent is within this range, blocks are
marked as used and then trimmed. Afterwards these blocks are marked as
free in per-group bitmap.

Jesse Gross fc741216db net offloading: Pass features into netif_needs_gso().
Now that there is a single function that can compute the device
features relevant to a packet, we don't want to run it for each
offload.  This converts netif_needs_gso() to take the features
of the device, rather than computing them itself.

Jesse Gross f01a5236bd net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features().
netif_get_vlan_features() is currently only used by netif_needs_gso(),
so it only concerns itself with GSO features.  However, several other
places also should take into account the contents of the packet when
deciding whether to offload to hardware.  This generalizes the function
to return features about all of the various forms of offloading.  Since
offloads tend to be linked together, this avoids duplicating the logic
in each location (i.e. the scatter/gather code also needs the checksum
logic).
