Each CPU has SHMEM_INO_BATCH inodes available in `->ino_batch' which is
per-CPU. Access here is serialized by disabling preemption. If the pool
is empty, it gets reloaded from `->next_ino'. Access here is serialized
by ->stat_lock which is a spinlock_t and can not be acquired with disabled
preemption.
One way around it would make per-CPU ino_batch struct containing the inode
number a local_lock_t.
Another solution is to promote ->stat_lock to a raw_spinlock_t. The
critical sections are short. The mpol_put() must be moved outside of the
critical section to avoid invoking the destructor with disabled
preemption.

We had a recurring situation in which admin procedures setting up
swapfiles would race with test preparation clearing away swapfiles; and
just occasionally that got stuck on a swapfile "(deleted)" which could
never be swapped off. That is not supposed to be possible.
2.6.28 commit f9454548e1 ("don't unlink an active swapfile") admitted
that it was leaving a race window open: now close it.
may_delete() makes the IS_SWAPFILE check (amongst many others) before
inode_lock has been taken on target: now repeat just that simple check in
vfs_unlink() and vfs_rename(), after taking inode_lock.
Which goes most of the way to fixing the race, but swapon() must also
check after it acquires inode_lock, that the file just opened has not
already been unlinked.

try_get_page() is very similar to try_get_compound_head(), and in fact
try_get_page() has fallen a little behind in terms of maintenance:
try_get_compound_head() handles speculative page references more
thoroughly.
There are only two try_get_page() callsites, so just call
try_get_compound_head() directly from those, and remove try_get_page()
entirely.
Also, seeing as how this changes try_get_compound_head() into a non-static
function, provide some kerneldoc documentation for it.

Patch series "A few gup refactorings and documentation updates", v3.
While reviewing some of the other things going on around gup.c, I noticed
that the documentation was wrong for a few of the routines that I wrote.
And then I noticed that there was some significant code duplication too.
So this fixes those issues.
This is not entirely risk-free, but after looking closely at this, I think
it's actually a useful improvement, getting rid of the code duplication
here.
This patch (of 3):
The documentation for try_grab_compound_head() and try_grab_page() has
fallen a little out of date. Update and clarify a few points.
Also make it kerneldoc-correct, by adding @args documentation.

pginodesteal is supposed to capture the impact that inode reclaim has on
the page cache state. Currently, it doesn't consider shadow pages that
get dropped this way, even though this can have a significant impact on
paging behavior, memory pressure calculations etc.
To improve visibility into these effects, make sure shadow pages get
counted when they get dropped through inode reclaim.
This changes the return value semantics of invalidate_mapping_pages()
semantics slightly, but the only two users are the inode shrinker itsel
and a usb driver that logs it for debugging purposes.

Fix the check to mapping_empty(), such that it runs truncation on any

Michael Stapelberg has reported that for workload with short big spikes of
writes (GCC linker seem to trigger this frequently) the write throughput
is heavily underestimated and tends to steadily sink until it reaches
zero. This has rather bad impact on writeback throttling (causing
stalls). The problem is that writeback throughput estimate gets updated
at most once per 200 ms. One update happens early after we submit pages
for writeback (at that point writeout of only small fraction of pages is
completed and thus observed throughput is tiny). Next update happens only
during the next write spike (updates happen only from inode writeback and
dirty throttling code) and if that is more than 1s after previous spike,
we decide system was idle and just ignore whatever was written until this
moment.
Fix the problem by making sure writeback throughput estimate is also
updated shortly after writeback completes to get reasonable estimate of
throughput for spiky workloads.

Patch series "writeback: Fix bandwidth estimates", v4.
Fix estimate of writeback throughput when device is not fully busy doing
writeback. Michael Stapelberg has reported that such workload (e.g.
generated by linking) tends to push estimated throughput down to 0 and as
a result writeback on the device is practically stalled.
The first three patches fix the reported issue, the remaining two patches
are unrelated cleanups of problems I've noticed when reading the code.
This patch (of 4):
Track number of inodes under writeback for each bdi_writeback structure.
We will use this to decide whether wb does any IO and so we can estimate
its writeback throughput. In principle we could use number of pages under
writeback (WB_WRITEBACK counter) for this however normal percpu counter
reads are too inaccurate for our purposes and summing the counter is too
expensive.

This uses struct pgtable_debug_args in the migration and thp test
functions. It's notable that the pre-allocated page is used in
swap_migration_tests() as set_pte_at() is used there.

Patch series "mm/debug_vm_pgtable: Enhancements", v6.
There are a couple of issues with current implementations and this series
tries to resolve the issues:
(a) All needed information are scattered in variables, passed to various
test functions. The code is organized in pretty much relaxed fashion.
(b) The page isn't allocated from buddy during page table entry modifying
tests. The page can be invalid, conflicting to the implementations
of set_xxx_at() on ARM64. The target page is accessed so that the
iCache can be flushed when execution permission is given on ARM64.
Besides, the target page can be unmapped and accessing to it causes
kernel crash.
"struct pgtable_debug_args" is introduced to address issue (a). For issue
(b), the used page is allocated from buddy in page table entry modifying
tests. The corresponding tets will be skipped if we fail to allocate the
(huge) page. For other test cases, the original page around to kernel
symbol (@start_kernel) is still used.
The patches are organized as below. PATCH[2-10] could be combined to one
patch, but it will make the review harder:
PATCH[1] introduces "struct pgtable_debug_args" as place holder of all
needed information. With it, the old and new implementation
can coexist.
PATCH[2-10] uses "struct pgtable_debug_args" in various test functions.
PATCH[11] removes the unused code for old implementation.
PATCH[12] fixes the issue of corrupted page flag for ARM64
This patch (of 6):
In debug_vm_pgtable(), there are many local variables introduced to track
the needed information and they are passed to the functions for various
test cases. It'd better to introduce a struct as place holder for these
information. With it, what the tests functions need is the struct. In
this way, the code is simplified and easier to be maintained.
Besides, set_xxx_at() could access the data on the corresponding pages in
the page table modifying tests. So the accessed pages in the tests should
have been allocated from buddy. Otherwise, we're accessing pages that
aren't owned by us. This causes issues like page flag corruption or
kernel crash on accessing unmapped page when CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is
enabled.
This introduces "struct pgtable_debug_args". The struct is initialized
and destroyed, but the information in the struct isn't used yet. It will
be used in subsequent patches.

Usually, ocfs2_downconvert_lock() function always downconverts dlm lock to
the expected level for satisfy dlm bast requests from the other nodes.
But there is a rare situation. When dlm lock conversion is being
canceled, ocfs2_downconvert_lock() function will return -EBUSY. You need
to be aware that ocfs2_cancel_convert() function is asynchronous in fsdlm
implementation.
If we does not requeue this lockres entry, ocfs2 downconvert thread no
longer handles this dlm lock bast request. Then, the other nodes will not
get the dlm lock again, the current node's process will be blocked when
acquire this dlm lock again.

A memory block is allocated through kmalloc(), and its return value is
assigned to the pointer oinfo. However, oinfo->dqi_gqinode is not
initialized but it is accessed in:
iput(oinfo->dqi_gqinode);
To fix this possible uninitialized-variable access, assign NULL to
oinfo->dqi_gqinode, and add ocfs2_qinfo_lock_res_init() behind the
assignment in ocfs2_local_read_info(). Remove ocfs2_qinfo_lock_res_init()
in ocfs2_global_read_info().
