3c7c9370fb [media] v4l2-subdev: remove core.s_config and v4l2_i2c_new_subdev_cfg()
The core.s_config op was meant for legacy drivers that needed to work with old
pre-2.6.26 kernels. This is no longer relevant. Unfortunately, this op was
incorrectly called from several drivers.

Replace those occurences with proper i2c_board_info structs and call
v4l2_i2c_new_subdev_board.

After these changes v4l2_i2c_new_subdev_cfg() was no longer used, so remove
that function as well.

2fe17c1075 fallocate should be a file operation
Currently all filesystems except XFS implement fallocate asynchronously,
while XFS forced a commit.  Both of these are suboptimal - in case of O_SYNC
I/O we really want our allocation on disk, especially for the !KEEP_SIZE
case where we actually grow the file with user-visible zeroes.  On the
other hand always commiting the transaction is a bad idea for fast-path
uses of fallocate like for example in recent Samba versions.   Given
that block allocation is a data plane operation anyway change it from
an inode operation to a file operation so that we have the file structure
available that lets us check for O_SYNC.

This also includes moving the code around for a few of the filesystems,
and remove the already unnedded S_ISDIR checks given that we only wire
up fallocate for regular files.

b3697c0255 fix non-x86 build failure in pmdp_get_and_clear
pmdp_get_and_clear/pmdp_clear_flush/pmdp_splitting_flush were trapped as
BUG() and they were defined only to diminish the risk of build issues on
not-x86 archs and to be consistent with the generic pte methods previously
defined in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h.

But they are causing more trouble than they were supposed to solve, so
it's simpler not to define them when THP is off.

This is also correcting the export of pmdp_splitting_flush which is
currently unused (x86 isn't using the generic implementation in
mm/pgtable-generic.c and no other arch needs that [yet]).

f03c65993b sanitize vfsmount refcounting changes
Instead of splitting refcount between (per-cpu) mnt_count
and (SMP-only) mnt_longrefs, make all references contribute
to mnt_count again and keep track of how many are longterm
ones.

Accounting rules for longterm count:
	* 1 for each fs_struct.root.mnt
	* 1 for each fs_struct.pwd.mnt
	* 1 for having non-NULL ->mnt_ns
	* decrement to 0 happens only under vfsmount lock exclusive

That allows nice common case for mntput() - since we can't drop the
final reference until after mnt_longterm has reached 0 due to the rules
above, mntput() can grab vfsmount lock shared and check mnt_longterm.
If it turns out to be non-zero (which is the common case), we know
that this is not the final mntput() and can just blindly decrement
percpu mnt_count.  Otherwise we grab vfsmount lock exclusive and
do usual decrement-and-check of percpu mnt_count.

For fs_struct.c we have mnt_make_longterm() and mnt_make_shortterm();
namespace.c uses the latter in places where we don't already hold
vfsmount lock exclusive and opencodes a few remaining spots where
we need to manipulate mnt_longterm.

Note that we mostly revert the code outside of fs/namespace.c back
to what we used to have; in particular, normal code doesn't need
to care about two kinds of references, etc.  And we get to keep
the optimization Nick's variant had bought us...

ea5b778a8b Unexport do_add_mount() and add in follow_automount(), not ->d_automount()
Unexport do_add_mount() and make ->d_automount() return the vfsmount to be
added rather than calling do_add_mount() itself.  follow_automount() will then
do the addition.

This slightly complicates things as ->d_automount() normally wants to add the
new vfsmount to an expiration list and start an expiration timer.  The problem
with that is that the vfsmount will be deleted if it has a refcount of 1 and
the timer will not repeat if the expiration list is empty.

To this end, we require the vfsmount to be returned from d_automount() with a
refcount of (at least) 2.  One of these refs will be dropped unconditionally.
In addition, follow_automount() must get a 3rd ref around the call to
do_add_mount() lest it eat a ref and return an error, leaving the mount we
have open to being expired as we would otherwise have only 1 ref on it.

d_automount() should also add the the vfsmount to the expiration list (by
calling mnt_set_expiry()) and start the expiration timer before returning, if
this mechanism is to be used.  The vfsmount will be unlinked from the
expiration list by follow_automount() if do_add_mount() fails.

This patch also fixes the call to do_add_mount() for AFS to propagate the mount
flags from the parent vfsmount.

ab90911ff9 Allow d_manage() to be used in RCU-walk mode
Allow d_manage() to be called from pathwalk when it is in RCU-walk mode as well
as when it is in Ref-walk mode.  This permits __follow_mount_rcu() to call
d_manage() directly.  d_manage() needs a parameter to indicate that it is in
RCU-walk mode as it isn't allowed to sleep if in that mode (but should return
-ECHILD instead).

autofs4_d_manage() can then be set to retain RCU-walk mode if the daemon
accesses it and otherwise request dropping back to ref-walk mode.

6f45b65672 Add an AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT flag to suppress terminal automount
Add an AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT flag to suppress terminal automounting of automount
point directories.  This can be used by fstatat() users to permit the
gathering of attributes on an automount point and also prevent
mass-automounting of a directory of automount points by ls.

cc53ce53c8 Add a dentry op to allow processes to be held during pathwalk transit
Add a dentry op (d_manage) to permit a filesystem to hold a process and make it
sleep when it tries to transit away from one of that filesystem's directories
during a pathwalk.  The operation is keyed off a new dentry flag
(DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT).

The filesystem is allowed to be selective about which processes it holds and
which it permits to continue on or prohibits from transiting from each flagged
directory.  This will allow autofs to hold up client processes whilst letting
its userspace daemon through to maintain the directory or the stuff behind it
or mounted upon it.

The ->d_manage() dentry operation:

	int (*d_manage)(struct path *path, bool mounting_here);

takes a pointer to the directory about to be transited away from and a flag
indicating whether the transit is undertaken by do_add_mount() or
do_move_mount() skipping through a pile of filesystems mounted on a mountpoint.

It should return 0 if successful and to let the process continue on its way;
-EISDIR to prohibit the caller from skipping to overmounted filesystems or
automounting, and to use this directory; or some other error code to return to
the user.

->d_manage() is called with namespace_sem writelocked if mounting_here is true
and no other locks held, so it may sleep.  However, if mounting_here is true,
it may not initiate or wait for a mount or unmount upon the parameter
directory, even if the act is actually performed by userspace.

Within fs/namei.c, follow_managed() is extended to check with d_manage() first
on each managed directory, before transiting away from it or attempting to
automount upon it.

follow_down() is renamed follow_down_one() and should only be used where the
filesystem deliberately intends to avoid management steps (e.g. autofs).

A new follow_down() is added that incorporates the loop done by all other
callers of follow_down() (do_add/move_mount(), autofs and NFSD; whilst AFS, NFS
and CIFS do use it, their use is removed by converting them to use
d_automount()).  The new follow_down() calls d_manage() as appropriate.  It
also takes an extra parameter to indicate if it is being called from mount code
(with namespace_sem writelocked) which it passes to d_manage().  follow_down()
ignores automount points so that it can be used to mount on them.

__follow_mount_rcu() is made to abort rcu-walk mode if it hits a directory with
DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT set on the basis that we're probably going to have to
sleep.  It would be possible to enter d_manage() in rcu-walk mode too, and have
that determine whether to abort or not itself.  That would allow the autofs
daemon to continue on in rcu-walk mode.

Note that DCACHE_MANAGE_TRANSIT on a directory should be cleared when it isn't
required as every tranist from that directory will cause d_manage() to be
invoked.  It can always be set again when necessary.

==========================
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR AUTOFS
==========================

Autofs currently uses the lookup() inode op and the d_revalidate() dentry op to
trigger the automounting of indirect mounts, and both of these can be called
with i_mutex held.

autofs knows that the i_mutex will be held by the caller in lookup(), and so
can drop it before invoking the daemon - but this isn't so for d_revalidate(),
since the lock is only held on _some_ of the code paths that call it.  This
means that autofs can't risk dropping i_mutex from its d_revalidate() function
before it calls the daemon.

The bug could manifest itself as, for example, a process that's trying to
validate an automount dentry that gets made to wait because that dentry is
expired and needs cleaning up:

	mkdir         S ffffffff8014e05a     0 32580  24956
	Call Trace:
	 [<ffffffff885371fd>] :autofs4:autofs4_wait+0x674/0x897
	 [<ffffffff80127f7d>] avc_has_perm+0x46/0x58
	 [<ffffffff8009fdcf>] autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x2e
	 [<ffffffff88537be6>] :autofs4:autofs4_expire_wait+0x41/0x6b

	 [<ffffffff80057a2f>] lookup_create+0x46/0x80
	 [<ffffffff800e6e31>] sys_mkdirat+0x56/0xe4

versus the automount daemon which wants to remove that dentry, but can't
because the normal process is holding the i_mutex lock:

	automount     D ffffffff8014e05a     0 32581      1              32561
	Call Trace:
	 [<ffffffff80063c3f>] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0x60/0x9b

	 [<ffffffff8005d229>] tracesys+0x71/0xe0
	 [<ffffffff8005d28d>] tracesys+0xd5/0xe0

which means that the system is deadlocked.

This patch allows autofs to hold up normal processes whilst the daemon goes
ahead and does things to the dentry tree behind the automouter point without
risking a deadlock as almost no locks are held in d_manage() and none in
d_automount().

9875cf8064 Add a dentry op to handle automounting rather than abusing follow_link()
Add a dentry op (d_automount) to handle automounting directories rather than
abusing the follow_link() inode operation.  The operation is keyed off a new
dentry flag (DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT).

This also makes it easier to add an AT_ flag to suppress terminal segment
automount during pathwalk and removes the need for the kludge code in the
pathwalk algorithm to handle directories with follow_link() semantics.

The ->d_automount() dentry operation:

	struct vfsmount *(*d_automount)(struct path *mountpoint);

takes a pointer to the directory to be mounted upon, which is expected to
provide sufficient data to determine what should be mounted.  If successful, it
should return the vfsmount struct it creates (which it should also have added
to the namespace using do_add_mount() or similar).  If there's a collision with
another automount attempt, NULL should be returned.  If the directory specified
by the parameter should be used directly rather than being mounted upon,
-EISDIR should be returned.  In any other case, an error code should be
returned.

The ->d_automount() operation is called with no locks held and may sleep.  At
this point the pathwalk algorithm will be in ref-walk mode.

Within fs/namei.c itself, a new pathwalk subroutine (follow_automount()) is
added to handle mountpoints.  It will return -EREMOTE if the automount flag was
set, but no d_automount() op was supplied, -ELOOP if we've encountered too many
symlinks or mountpoints, -EISDIR if the walk point should be used without
mounting and 0 if successful.  The path will be updated to point to the mounted
filesystem if a successful automount took place.

__follow_mount() is replaced by follow_managed() which is more generic
(especially with the patch that adds ->d_manage()).  This handles transits from
directories during pathwalk, including automounting and skipping over
mountpoints (and holding processes with the next patch).

__follow_mount_rcu() will jump out of RCU-walk mode if it encounters an
automount point with nothing mounted on it.

follow_dotdot*() does not handle automounts as you don't want to trigger them
whilst following "..".

I've also extracted the mount/don't-mount logic from autofs4 and included it
here.  It makes the mount go ahead anyway if someone calls open() or creat(),
tries to traverse the directory, tries to chdir/chroot/etc. into the directory,
or sticks a '/' on the end of the pathname.  If they do a stat(), however,
they'll only trigger the automount if they didn't also say O_NOFOLLOW.

I've also added an inode flag (S_AUTOMOUNT) so that filesystems can mark their
inodes as automount points.  This flag is automatically propagated to the
dentry as DCACHE_NEED_AUTOMOUNT by __d_instantiate().  This saves NFS and could
save AFS a private flag bit apiece, but is not strictly necessary.  It would be
preferable to do the propagation in d_set_d_op(), but that doesn't normally
have access to the inode.

[AV: fixed breakage in case if __follow_mount_rcu() fails and nameidata_drop_rcu()
succeeds in RCU case of do_lookup(); we need to fall through to non-RCU case after
that, rather than just returning with ungrabbed *path]

and MSI/INTx will be synchronized in suspend_common().

49731baa41 block: restore multiple bd_link_disk_holder() support
Commit e09b457b (block: simplify holder symlink handling) incorrectly
assumed that there is only one link at maximum.  dm may use multiple
links and expects block layer to track reference count for each link,
which is different from and unrelated to the exclusive device holder
identified by @holder when the device is opened.

Remove the single holder assumption and automatic removal of the link
and revive the per-link reference count tracking.  The code
essentially behaves the same as before commit e09b457b sans the
unnecessary kobject reference count dancing.

While at it, note that this facility should not be used by anyone else
than the current ones.  Sysfs symlinks shouldn't be abused like this
and the whole thing doesn't belong in the block layer at all.

c94fbe1d9e tracing: Only process module tracepoints once
The commit:

 9f987b3141f086de27832514aad9f50a53f754
 tracing: Include module.h in define_trace.h

only solved half the problem. If the trace/events/module.h header is
included at the time of define_trace.h (or in ftrace.h within it),
the module.h TRACE_SYSTEM will override the current TRACE_SYSTEM
macro.

Since define_trace.h is included when CREATE_TRACE_POINTS is set,
and the first thing it does is to #undef CREATE_TRACE_POINTS,
by placing the module.h TRACE_SYSTEM inside a
 #ifdef CREATE_TRACE_POINTS
we can prevent it from overriding the TRACE_SYSTEM that is
being processed, and still process the module.h tracepoints
when the module code defines CREATE_TRACE_POINTS and includes
the trace/events/module.h header.

As with commit 9f987b3141, this is only an issue if module.h
is not included before the trace/events/<event>.h file is
included, which (luckily) has not happened yet.

359ab9f5b1 power_supply: Add MAX17042 Fuel Gauge Driver
The MAX17042 is a fuel gauge with an I2C interface for lithium-ion
betteries. Unlike its predecessor MAX17040, MAX17042 uses 16bit
registers. Besides, MAX17042 has much more features than MAX17040; e.g.,
a thermistor, current and current accumulation measurement, battery
internal resistance estimate, average values of measurement, and others.

This patch implements a driver for MAX17042.
In this initial release, we have implemented the most basic features of
a fuel gauge: measure the battery capacity and voltage.

32385c7cf6 kernel: fix hlist_bl again
__d_rehash is dereferencing an almost-NULL pointer on my ARM926.
CONFIG_SMP=n and CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y.

The faulting instruction is:    strne   r3, [r2, #4]
and as can be seen from the register dump below, r2 is 0x00000001, hence
the faulting 0x00000005 address.

__d_rehash is essentially:

       spin_lock_bucket(b);
       entry->d_flags &= ~DCACHE_UNHASHED;
       hlist_bl_add_head_rcu(&entry->d_hash, &b->head);
       spin_unlock_bucket(b);

which is:

       bit_spin_lock(0, (unsigned long *)&b->head.first);
       entry->d_flags &= ~DCACHE_UNHASHED;
       hlist_bl_add_head_rcu(&entry->d_hash, &b->head);
       __bit_spin_unlock(0, (unsigned long *)&b->head.first);

bit_spin_lock(0, ptr) sets bit 0 of *ptr, in this case b->head.first if
CONFIG_SMP or CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK is set:

#if defined(CONFIG_SMP) || defined(CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK)
       while (unlikely(test_and_set_bit_lock(bitnum, addr))) {
               while (test_bit(bitnum, addr)) {
                       preempt_enable();
                       cpu_relax();
                       preempt_disable();
               }
       }
#endif

So, b->head.first starts off NULL, and becomes a non-NULL (address 1).
hlist_bl_add_head_rcu() does this:

static inline void hlist_bl_add_head_rcu(struct hlist_bl_node *n,
                                       struct hlist_bl_head *h)
{
       first = hlist_bl_first(h);
       n->next = first;
       if (first)
               first->pprev = &n->next;

It is the store to first->pprev which is faulting.

hlist_bl_first():

static inline struct hlist_bl_node *hlist_bl_first(struct hlist_bl_head *h)
{
       return (struct hlist_bl_node *)
               ((unsigned long)h->first & ~LIST_BL_LOCKMASK);
}

but:
#if defined(CONFIG_SMP)
#define LIST_BL_LOCKMASK        1UL
#else
#define LIST_BL_LOCKMASK        0UL
#endif

So, we have one piece of code which sets bit 0 of addresses, and another
bit of code which doesn't clear it before dereferencing the pointer if
!CONFIG_SMP && CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK.  With the patch below, I can again
sucessfully boot the kernel on my Versatile PB/926 platform.

337ce5d1c5 mfd: Support LP3974 RTC
The first releases of LP3974 have a large delay in RTC registers,
which requires 2 seconds of delay after writing to a rtc register
(recommended by National Semiconductor's engineers)
before reading it.

If "rtc_delay" field of the platform data is true, the rtc driver
assumes that such delays are required. Although we have not seen
LP3974s without requiring such delays, we assume that such LP3974s
will be released soon (or they have done so already) and they are
supported by "lp3974" without setting "rtc_delay" at the platform
data.

This patch adds delays with msleep when writing values to RTC registers
if the platform data has rtc_delay set.

bba958783b mmc: sh_mmcif: Convert to __raw_xxx() I/O accessors.
When using the I/O accessors in raw mode from the boot stubs we don't
want to bother with any of the complexity associated with readl/writel
and friends. Furthermore, utilization within the context of the host
driver itself is all performed on an ioremapped window, so using the
__raw variants there doesn't pose any problem either.

If and when barriers need to be added in the future, these will need to
be explicitly written out, but this is so far not a concern for any of
the affected CPUs in question.

This fixes up the link error introduced by the ARM tree via its barrier

1ac9ad1394 net: remove dev_txq_stats_fold()
After recent changes, (percpu stats on vlan/tunnels...), we dont need
anymore per struct netdev_queue tx_bytes/tx_packets/tx_dropped counters.

Only remaining users are ixgbe, sch_teql, gianfar & macvlan :

1) ixgbe can be converted to use existing tx_ring counters.

2) macvlan incremented txq->tx_dropped, it can use the
dev->stats.tx_dropped counter.

3) sch_teql : almost revert ab35cd4b8f (Use net_device internal stats)
    Now we have ndo_get_stats64(), use it, even for "unsigned long"
fields (No need to bring back a struct net_device_stats)

4) gianfar adds a stats structure per tx queue to hold
tx_bytes/tx_packets

This removes a lockdep warning (and possible lockup) in rndis gadget,
calling dev_get_stats() from hard IRQ context.

	LIST_BL_BUG_ON(!((unsigned long)h->first & LIST_BL_LOCKMASK));

always evaulates to true.

Fix the expression, and also avoid a dependency between bit spinlock
implementation and list bl code (list code shouldn't know anything
except that bit 0 is set when adding and removing elements). Eventually
if a good use case comes up, we might use this list to store 1 or more
arbitrary bits of data, so it really shouldn't be tied to locking either,
but for now they are helpful for debugging.

9ce137eee4 nfsd: don't support msnfs export option
We've long had these pointless #ifdef MSNFS's sprinkled throughout the
code--pointless because MSNFS is always defined (and we give no config
option to make that easy to change).  So we could just remove the
ifdef's and compile the resulting code unconditionally.

But as long as we're there: why not just rip out this code entirely?
The only purpose is to implement the "msnfs" export option which turns
on Windows-like behavior in some cases, and:

	- the export option isn't documented anywhere;
	- the userland utilities (which would need to be able to parse
	  "msnfs" in an export file) don't support it;
	- I don't know how to maintain this, as I don't know what the
	  proper behavior is; and
	- google shows no evidence that anyone has ever used this.

50de1dd967 memcg: fix memory migration of shmem swapcache
In the current implementation mem_cgroup_end_migration() decides whether
the page migration has succeeded or not by checking "oldpage->mapping".

But if we are tring to migrate a shmem swapcache, the page->mapping of it
is NULL from the begining, so the check would be invalid.  As a result,
mem_cgroup_end_migration() assumes the migration has succeeded even if
it's not, so "newpage" would be freed while it's not uncharged.

This patch fixes it by passing mem_cgroup_end_migration() the result of
the page migration.

dbd4ea78f0 memcg: add lock to synchronize page accounting and migration
Introduce a new bit spin lock, PCG_MOVE_LOCK, to synchronize the page
accounting and migration code.  This reworks the locking scheme of
_update_stat() and _move_account() by adding new lock bit PCG_MOVE_LOCK,
which is always taken under IRQ disable.

1. If pages are being migrated from a memcg, then updates to that
   memcg page statistics are protected by grabbing PCG_MOVE_LOCK using
   move_lock_page_cgroup().  In an upcoming commit, memcg dirty page
   accounting will be updating memcg page accounting (specifically: num
   writeback pages) from IRQ context (softirq).  Avoid a deadlocking
   nested spin lock attempt by disabling irq on the local processor when
   grabbing the PCG_MOVE_LOCK.

2. lock for update_page_stat is used only for avoiding race with
   move_account().  So, IRQ awareness of lock_page_cgroup() itself is not
   a problem.  The problem is between mem_cgroup_update_page_stat() and
   mem_cgroup_move_account_page().

Trade-off:
  * Changing lock_page_cgroup() to always disable IRQ (or
    local_bh) has some impacts on performance and I think
    it's bad to disable IRQ when it's not necessary.
  * adding a new lock makes move_account() slower.  Score is
    here.

Performance Impact: moving a 8G anon process.

Before:
	real    0m0.792s
	user    0m0.000s
	sys     0m0.780s

After:
	real    0m0.854s
	user    0m0.000s
	sys     0m0.842s

This score is bad but planned patches for optimization can reduce
this impact.

2a7106f2cb memcg: create extensible page stat update routines
Replace usage of the mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped() memcg
statistic update routine with two new routines:
* mem_cgroup_inc_page_stat()
* mem_cgroup_dec_page_stat()

As before, only the file_mapped statistic is managed.  However, these more
general interfaces allow for new statistics to be more easily added.  New
statistics are added with memcg dirty page accounting.

db16d5ec1f memcg: add page_cgroup flags for dirty page tracking
This patchset provides the ability for each cgroup to have independent
dirty page limits.

Limiting dirty memory is like fixing the max amount of dirty (hard to
reclaim) page cache used by a cgroup.  So, in case of multiple cgroup
writers, they will not be able to consume more than their designated share
of dirty pages and will be forced to perform write-out if they cross that
limit.

The patches are based on a series proposed by Andrea Righi in Mar 2010.

Overview:

- Add page_cgroup flags to record when pages are dirty, in writeback, or nfs
  unstable.

- Extend mem_cgroup to record the total number of pages in each of the
  interesting dirty states (dirty, writeback, unstable_nfs).

- Add dirty parameters similar to the system-wide  /proc/sys/vm/dirty_*
  limits to mem_cgroup.  The mem_cgroup dirty parameters are accessible
  via cgroupfs control files.

- Consider both system and per-memcg dirty limits in page writeback when
  deciding to queue background writeback or block for foreground writeback.

Known shortcomings:

- When a cgroup dirty limit is exceeded, then bdi writeback is employed to
  writeback dirty inodes.  Bdi writeback considers inodes from any cgroup, not
  just inodes contributing dirty pages to the cgroup exceeding its limit.

- When memory.use_hierarchy is set, then dirty limits are disabled.  This is a
  implementation detail.  An enhanced implementation is needed to check the
  chain of parents to ensure that no dirty limit is exceeded.

Performance data:
- A page fault microbenchmark workload was used to measure performance, which
  can be called in read or write mode:
        f = open(foo. $cpu)
        truncate(f, 4096)
        alarm(60)
        while (1) {
                p = mmap(f, 4096)
                if (write)
			*p = 1
		else
			x = *p
                munmap(p)
        }

- The workload was called for several points in the patch series in different
  modes:
  - s_read is a single threaded reader
  - s_write is a single threaded writer
  - p_read is a 16 thread reader, each operating on a different file
  - p_write is a 16 thread writer, each operating on a different file

- Measurements were collected on a 16 core non-numa system using "perf stat
  --repeat 3".  The -a option was used for parallel (p_*) runs.

- All numbers are page fault rate (M/sec).  Higher is better.

- To compare the performance of a kernel without non-memcg compare the first and
  last rows, neither has memcg configured.  The first row does not include any
  of these memcg patches.

- To compare the performance of using memcg dirty limits, compare the baseline
  (2nd row titled "w/ memcg") with the the code and memcg enabled (2nd to last
  row titled "all patches").

                           root_cgroup                    child_cgroup

29c1f677d4 mm: migration: use rcu_dereference_protected when dereferencing the radix tree slot during file page migration
migrate_pages() -> unmap_and_move() only calls rcu_read_lock() for
anonymous pages, as introduced by git commit
989f89c57e ("fix rcu_read_lock() in page
migraton").  The point of the RCU protection there is part of getting a
stable reference to anon_vma and is only held for anon pages as file pages
are locked which is sufficient protection against freeing.

However, while a file page's mapping is being migrated, the radix tree is
double checked to ensure it is the expected page.  This uses
radix_tree_deref_slot() -> rcu_dereference() without the RCU lock held
triggering the following warning.

This patch introduces radix_tree_deref_slot_protected() which calls
rcu_dereference_protected().  Users of it must pass in the
mapping->tree_lock that is protecting this dereference.  Holding the tree
lock protects against parallel updaters of the radix tree meaning that
rcu_dereference_protected is allowable.

60ab3244ec thp: khugepaged: make khugepaged aware about madvise
MADV_HUGEPAGE and MADV_NOHUGEPAGE were fully effective only if run after
mmap and before touching the memory.  While this is enough for most
usages, it's little effort to make madvise more dynamic at runtime on an
existing mapping by making khugepaged aware about madvise.

MADV_HUGEPAGE: register in khugepaged immediately without waiting a page
fault (that may not ever happen if all pages are already mapped and the
"enabled" knob was set to madvise during the initial page faults).

MADV_NOHUGEPAGE: skip vmas marked VM_NOHUGEPAGE in khugepaged to stop
collapsing pages where not needed.

8ee53820ed thp: mmu_notifier_test_young
For GRU and EPT, we need gup-fast to set referenced bit too (this is why
it's correct to return 0 when shadow_access_mask is zero, it requires
gup-fast to set the referenced bit).  qemu-kvm access already sets the
young bit in the pte if it isn't zero-copy, if it's zero copy or a shadow
paging EPT minor fault we relay on gup-fast to signal the page is in
use...

We also need to check the young bits on the secondary pagetables for NPT
and not nested shadow mmu as the data may never get accessed again by the
primary pte.

Without this closer accuracy, we'd have to remove the heuristic that
avoids collapsing hugepages in hugepage virtual regions that have not even
a single subpage in use.

->test_young is full backwards compatible with GRU and other usages that
don't have young bits in pagetables set by the hardware and that should
nuke the secondary mmu mappings when ->clear_flush_young runs just like
EPT does.

Removing the heuristic that checks the young bit in
khugepaged/collapse_huge_page completely isn't so bad either probably but
I thought it was worth it and this makes it reliable.

94fcc585fb thp: avoid breaking huge pmd invariants in case of vma_adjust failures
An huge pmd can only be mapped if the corresponding 2M virtual range is
fully contained in the vma.  At times the VM calls split_vma twice, if the
first split_vma succeeds and the second fail, the first split_vma remains
in effect and it's not rolled back.  For split_vma or vma_adjust to fail
an allocation failure is needed so it's a very unlikely event (the out of
memory killer would normally fire before any allocation failure is visible
to kernel and userland and if an out of memory condition happens it's
unlikely to happen exactly here).  Nevertheless it's safer to ensure that
no huge pmd can be left around if the vma is adjusted in a way that can't
fit hugepages anymore at the new vm_start/vm_end address.

It's mostly a matter of replacing alloc_pages with alloc_pages_vma after
introducing alloc_pages_vma.  khugepaged needs special handling as the
allocation has to happen inside collapse_huge_page where the vma is known
and an error has to be returned to the outer loop to sleep
alloc_sleep_millisecs in case of failure.  But it retains the more
efficient logic of handling allocation failures in khugepaged in case of
CONFIG_NUMA=n.

ba76149f47 thp: khugepaged
Add khugepaged to relocate fragmented pages into hugepages if new
hugepages become available.  (this is indipendent of the defrag logic that
will have to make new hugepages available)

The fundamental reason why khugepaged is unavoidable, is that some memory
can be fragmented and not everything can be relocated.  So when a virtual
machine quits and releases gigabytes of hugepages, we want to use those
freely available hugepages to create huge-pmd in the other virtual
machines that may be running on fragmented memory, to maximize the CPU
efficiency at all times.  The scan is slow, it takes nearly zero cpu time,
except when it copies data (in which case it means we definitely want to
pay for that cpu time) so it seems a good tradeoff.

In addition to the hugepages being released by other process releasing
memory, we have the strong suspicion that the performance impact of
potentially defragmenting hugepages during or before each page fault could
lead to more performance inconsistency than allocating small pages at
first and having them collapsed into large pages later...  if they prove
themselfs to be long lived mappings (khugepaged scan is slow so short
lived mappings have low probability to run into khugepaged if compared to
long lived mappings).

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:

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.
