The size of individual pages in the page pool in given by an order. The
order is the binary logarithm of the number of pages that make up one of
the pages in the pool. However, the driver currently passes the number
of pages rather than the order, so it ends up wasting quite a bit of
memory.
Fix this by taking the binary logarithm and passing that in the order
field.

The issue was caused by skb's true_size changed without its sk's
sk_wmem_alloc increased in tcp/skb_gro_receive(). Later when the
skb is being freed and the skb's truesize is subtracted from its
sk's sk_wmem_alloc in tcp_wfree(), underflow occurs.
macsec is calling gro_cells_receive() to receive a packet, which
actually requires skb->sk to be NULL. However when macsec dev is
over veth, it's possible the skb->sk is still set if the skb was
not unshared or expanded from the peer veth.
ip_rcv() is calling skb_orphan() to drop the skb's sk for tproxy,
but it is too late for macsec's calling gro_cells_receive(). So
fix it by dropping the skb's sk earlier on rx path of macsec.

The default hard disk param sets latency targets at 50ms. As the
default target percentiles are zero, these don't directly regulate
vrate; however, they're still used to calculate the period length -
100ms in this case.
This is excessively low. A SATA drive with QD32 saturated with random
IOs can easily reach avg completion latency of several hundred msecs.
A period duration which is substantially lower than avg completion
latency can lead to wildly fluctuating vrate.
Let's bump up the default latency targets to 250ms so that the period
duration is sufficiently long.

Some IOs may span multiple periods. As latencies are collected on
completion, the inbetween periods won't register them and may
incorrectly decide to increase vrate. nr_lagging tracks these IOs to
avoid those situations. Currently, whenever there are IOs which are
spanning from the previous period, busy_level is reset to 0 if
negative thus suppressing vrate increase.
This has the following two problems.
* When latency target percentiles aren't set, vrate adjustment should
only be governed by queue depth depletion; however, the current code
keeps nr_lagging active which pulls in latency results and can keep
down vrate unexpectedly.
* When lagging condition is detected, it resets the entire negative
busy_level. This turned out to be way too aggressive on some
devices which sometimes experience extended latencies on a small
subset of commands. In addition, a lagging IO will be accounted as
latency target miss on completion anyway and resetting busy_level
amplifies its impact unnecessarily.
This patch fixes the above two problems by disabling nr_lagging
counting when latency target percentiles aren't set and blocking vrate
increases when there are lagging IOs while leaving busy_level as-is.

vrate_adj tracepoint traces vrate changes; however, it does so only

non-zero nr_lagging.

cecf5d87ff ("block: split .sysfs_lock into two locks") starts to
release & acquire sysfs_lock before registering/un-registering elevator
queue during switching elevator for avoiding potential deadlock from
showing & storing 'queue/iosched' attributes and removing elevator's
kobject.
Turns out there isn't such deadlock because 'q->sysfs_lock' isn't
required in .show & .store of queue/iosched's attributes, and just
elevator's sysfs lock is acquired in elv_iosched_store() and
elv_iosched_show(). So it is safe to hold queue's sysfs lock when
registering/un-registering elevator queue.
The biggest issue is that commit cecf5d87ff assumes that concurrent
write on 'queue/scheduler' can't happen. However, this assumption isn't
true, because kernfs_fop_write() only guarantees that concurrent write
aren't called on the same open file, but the write could be from
different open on the file. So we can't release & re-acquire queue's
sysfs lock during switching elevator, otherwise use-after-free on
elevator could be triggered.
Fixes the issue by not releasing queue's sysfs lock during switching
elevator.

When a process expects no accesses to a certain memory range for a long
time, it could hint kernel that the pages can be reclaimed instantly but
data should be preserved for future use. This could reduce workingset
eviction so it ends up increasing performance.
This patch introduces the new MADV_PAGEOUT hint to madvise(2) syscall.
MADV_PAGEOUT can be used by a process to mark a memory range as not
expected to be used for a long time so that kernel reclaims *any LRU*
pages instantly. The hint can help kernel in deciding which pages to
evict proactively.
A note: It doesn't apply SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX LRU page isolation limit
intentionally because it's automatically bounded by PMD size. If PMD
size(e.g., 256) makes some trouble, we could fix it later by limit it to
SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX[1].
- man-page material
MADV_PAGEOUT (since Linux x.x)
Do not expect access in the near future so pages in the specified
regions could be reclaimed instantly regardless of memory pressure.
Thus, access in the range after successful operation could cause
major page fault but never lose the up-to-date contents unlike
MADV_DONTNEED. Pages belonging to a shared mapping are only processed
if a write access is allowed for the calling process.
MADV_PAGEOUT cannot be applied to locked pages, Huge TLB pages, or
VM_PFNMAP pages.

The local variable references in shrink_page_list is PAGEREF_RECLAIM_CLEAN
as default. It is for preventing to reclaim dirty pages when CMA try to
migrate pages. Strictly speaking, we don't need it because CMA didn't
allow to write out by .may_writepage = 0 in reclaim_clean_pages_from_list.
Moreover, it has a problem to prevent anonymous pages's swap out even
though force_reclaim = true in shrink_page_list on upcoming patch. So
this patch makes references's default value to PAGEREF_RECLAIM and rename
force_reclaim with ignore_references to make it more clear.
This is a preparatory work for next patch.

Patch series "Introduce MADV_COLD and MADV_PAGEOUT", v7.
- Background
The Android terminology used for forking a new process and starting an app
from scratch is a cold start, while resuming an existing app is a hot
start. While we continually try to improve the performance of cold
starts, hot starts will always be significantly less power hungry as well
as faster so we are trying to make hot start more likely than cold start.
To increase hot start, Android userspace manages the order that apps
should be killed in a process called ActivityManagerService.
ActivityManagerService tracks every Android app or service that the user
could be interacting with at any time and translates that into a ranked
list for lmkd(low memory killer daemon). They are likely to be killed by
lmkd if the system has to reclaim memory. In that sense they are similar
to entries in any other cache. Those apps are kept alive for
opportunistic performance improvements but those performance improvements
will vary based on the memory requirements of individual workloads.
- Problem
Naturally, cached apps were dominant consumers of memory on the system.
However, they were not significant consumers of swap even though they are
good candidate for swap. Under investigation, swapping out only begins
once the low zone watermark is hit and kswapd wakes up, but the overall
allocation rate in the system might trip lmkd thresholds and cause a
cached process to be killed(we measured performance swapping out vs.
zapping the memory by killing a process. Unsurprisingly, zapping is 10x
times faster even though we use zram which is much faster than real
storage) so kill from lmkd will often satisfy the high zone watermark,
resulting in very few pages actually being moved to swap.
- Approach
The approach we chose was to use a new interface to allow userspace to
proactively reclaim entire processes by leveraging platform information.
This allowed us to bypass the inaccuracy of the kernel’s LRUs for pages
that are known to be cold from userspace and to avoid races with lmkd by
reclaiming apps as soon as they entered the cached state. Additionally,
it could provide many chances for platform to use much information to
optimize memory efficiency.
To achieve the goal, the patchset introduce two new options for madvise.
One is MADV_COLD which will deactivate activated pages and the other is
MADV_PAGEOUT which will reclaim private pages instantly. These new
options complement MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE by adding non-destructive
ways to gain some free memory space. MADV_PAGEOUT is similar to
MADV_DONTNEED in a way that it hints the kernel that memory region is not
currently needed and should be reclaimed immediately; MADV_COLD is similar
to MADV_FREE in a way that it hints the kernel that memory region is not
currently needed and should be reclaimed when memory pressure rises.
This patch (of 5):
When a process expects no accesses to a certain memory range, it could
give a hint to kernel that the pages can be reclaimed when memory pressure
happens but data should be preserved for future use. This could reduce
workingset eviction so it ends up increasing performance.
This patch introduces the new MADV_COLD hint to madvise(2) syscall.
MADV_COLD can be used by a process to mark a memory range as not expected
to be used in the near future. The hint can help kernel in deciding which
pages to evict early during memory pressure.
It works for every LRU pages like MADV_[DONTNEED|FREE]. IOW, It moves
active file page -> inactive file LRU
active anon page -> inacdtive anon LRU
Unlike MADV_FREE, it doesn't move active anonymous pages to inactive file
LRU's head because MADV_COLD is a little bit different symantic.
MADV_FREE means it's okay to discard when the memory pressure because the
content of the page is *garbage* so freeing such pages is almost zero
overhead since we don't need to swap out and access afterward causes just
minor fault. Thus, it would make sense to put those freeable pages in
inactive file LRU to compete other used-once pages. It makes sense for
implmentaion point of view, too because it's not swapbacked memory any
longer until it would be re-dirtied. Even, it could give a bonus to make
them be reclaimed on swapless system. However, MADV_COLD doesn't mean
garbage so reclaiming them requires swap-out/in in the end so it's bigger
cost. Since we have designed VM LRU aging based on cost-model, anonymous
cold pages would be better to position inactive anon's LRU list, not file
LRU. Furthermore, it would help to avoid unnecessary scanning if system
doesn't have a swap device. Let's start simpler way without adding
complexity at this moment. However, keep in mind, too that it's a caveat
that workloads with a lot of pages cache are likely to ignore MADV_COLD on
anonymous memory because we rarely age anonymous LRU lists.
* man-page material
MADV_COLD (since Linux x.x)
Pages in the specified regions will be treated as less-recently-accessed
compared to pages in the system with similar access frequencies. In
contrast to MADV_FREE, the contents of the region are preserved regardless
of subsequent writes to pages.
MADV_COLD cannot be applied to locked pages, Huge TLB pages, or VM_PFNMAP
pages.

Patch series "arm64: untag user pointers passed to the kernel", v19.
=== Overview
arm64 has a feature called Top Byte Ignore, which allows to embed pointer
tags into the top byte of each pointer. Userspace programs (such as
HWASan, a memory debugging tool [1]) might use this feature and pass
tagged user pointers to the kernel through syscalls or other interfaces.
Right now the kernel is already able to handle user faults with tagged
pointers, due to these patches:
1. 81cddd65 ("arm64: traps: fix userspace cache maintenance emulation on a
tagged pointer")
2. 7dcd9dd8 ("arm64: hw_breakpoint: fix watchpoint matching for tagged
pointers")
3. 276e9327 ("arm64: entry: improve data abort handling of tagged
pointers")
This patchset extends tagged pointer support to syscall arguments.
As per the proposed ABI change [3], tagged pointers are only allowed to be
passed to syscalls when they point to memory ranges obtained by anonymous
mmap() or sbrk() (see the patchset [3] for more details).
For non-memory syscalls this is done by untaging user pointers when the
kernel performs pointer checking to find out whether the pointer comes
from userspace (most notably in access_ok). The untagging is done only
when the pointer is being checked, the tag is preserved as the pointer
makes its way through the kernel and stays tagged when the kernel
dereferences the pointer when perfoming user memory accesses.
The mmap and mremap (only new_addr) syscalls do not currently accept
tagged addresses. Architectures may interpret the tag as a background
colour for the corresponding vma.
Other memory syscalls (mprotect, etc.) don't do user memory accesses but
rather deal with memory ranges, and untagged pointers are better suited to
describe memory ranges internally. Thus for memory syscalls we untag
pointers completely when they enter the kernel.
=== Other approaches
One of the alternative approaches to untagging that was considered is to
completely strip the pointer tag as the pointer enters the kernel with
some kind of a syscall wrapper, but that won't work with the countless
number of different ioctl calls. With this approach we would need a
custom wrapper for each ioctl variation, which doesn't seem practical.
An alternative approach to untagging pointers in memory syscalls prologues
is to inspead allow tagged pointers to be passed to find_vma() (and other
vma related functions) and untag them there. Unfortunately, a lot of
find_vma() callers then compare or subtract the returned vma start and end
fields against the pointer that was being searched. Thus this approach
would still require changing all find_vma() callers.
=== Testing
The following testing approaches has been taken to find potential issues
with user pointer untagging:
1. Static testing (with sparse [2] and separately with a custom static
analyzer based on Clang) to track casts of __user pointers to integer
types to find places where untagging needs to be done.
2. Static testing with grep to find parts of the kernel that call
find_vma() (and other similar functions) or directly compare against
vm_start/vm_end fields of vma.
3. Static testing with grep to find parts of the kernel that compare
user pointers with TASK_SIZE or other similar consts and macros.
4. Dynamic testing: adding BUG_ON(has_tag(addr)) to find_vma() and running
a modified syzkaller version that passes tagged pointers to the kernel.
Based on the results of the testing the requried patches have been added
to the patchset.
=== Notes
This patchset is meant to be merged together with "arm64 relaxed ABI" [3].
This patchset is a prerequisite for ARM's memory tagging hardware feature
support [4].
This patchset has been merged into the Pixel 2 & 3 kernel trees and is
now being used to enable testing of Pixel phones with HWASan.

This patch (of 11)
This patch is a part of a series that extends kernel ABI to allow to pass
tagged user pointers (with the top byte set to something else other than
0x00) as syscall arguments.
strncpy_from_user and strnlen_user accept user addresses as arguments, and
do not go through the same path as copy_from_user and others, so here we
need to handle the case of tagged user addresses separately.
Untag user pointers passed to these functions.
Note, that this patch only temporarily untags the pointers to perform
validity checks, but then uses them as is to perform user memory accesses.

Null pointers were assigned to local variables in a few cases as exception
handling. The jump target “out” was used where no meaningful data
processing actions should eventually be performed by branches of an if
statement then. Use an additional jump target for calling dev_kfree_skb()
directly.
Return also directly after error conditions were detected when no extra
clean-up is needed by this function implementation.

The original clean up of "cut here" missed the WARN_ON() case (that does
not have a printk message), which was fixed recently by adding an explicit
printk of "cut here". This had the downside of adding a printk() to every
WARN_ON() caller, which reduces the utility of using an instruction
exception to streamline the resulting code. By making this a new BUGFLAG,
all of these can be removed and "cut here" can be handled by the exception
handler.
This was very pronounced on PowerPC, but the effect can be seen on x86 as
well. The resulting text size of a defconfig build shows some small
savings from this patch:
text data bss dec hex filename
19691167 5134320 1646664 26472151 193eed7 vmlinux.before
19676362 5134260 1663048 26473670 193f4c6 vmlinux.after
This change also opens the door for creating something like BUG_MSG(),
where a custom printk() before issuing BUG(), without confusing the "cut
here" line.

In preparation for cleaning up "cut here" even more, this removes the

In preparation for cleaning up "cut here", move the "cut here" logic up
out of __warn() and into callers that pass non-NULL args. For anyone
looking closely, there are two callers that pass NULL args: one already
explicitly prints "cut here". The remaining case is covered by how a WARN
is built, which will be cleaned up in the next patch.

Patch series "Clean up WARN() "cut here" handling", v2.
Christophe Leroy noticed that the fix for missing "cut here" in the WARN()
case was adding explicit printk() calls instead of teaching the exception
handler to add it. This refactors the bug/warn infrastructure to pass
this information as a new BUGFLAG.
Longer details repeated from the last patch in the series:
bug: move WARN_ON() "cut here" into exception handler
The original cleanup of "cut here" missed the WARN_ON() case (that does
not have a printk message), which was fixed recently by adding an explicit
printk of "cut here". This had the downside of adding a printk() to every
WARN_ON() caller, which reduces the utility of using an instruction

This change also opens the door for creating something like BUG_MSG(),
where a custom printk() before issuing BUG(), without confusing the "cut
here" line.
This patch (of 7):
There's no reason to have specialized helpers for passing the warn taint
down to __warn(). Consolidate and refactor helper macros, removing
__WARN_printf() and warn_slowpath_fmt_taint().

Some systems (like Chrome OS) may use "split debug" for kernel modules.
That means that the debug symbols are in a different file than the main
elf file. Let's handle that by also searching for debug symbols that end
in ".ko.debug".
This is a packaging topic. You can take a normal elf file and split the
debug out of it using objcopy. Try "man objcopy" and then take a look at
the "--only-keep-debug" option. It'll give you a whole recipe for doing
splitdebug. The suffix used for the debug symbols is arbitrary. If
people have other another suffix besides ".ko.debug" then we could
presumably support that too...
For portage (which is the packaging system used by Chrome OS) split debug
is supported by default (and the suffix is .ko.debug). ...and so in
Chrome OS we always get the installed elf files stripped and then the
symbols stashed away.
At the moment we don't actually use the normal portage magic to do this
for the kernel though since it affects our ability to get good stack dumps
in the kernel. We instead pass a script as "strip" [1].

Right now kgdb/kdb hooks up to debug panics by registering for the panic
notifier. This works OK except that it means that kgdb/kdb gets called
_after_ the CPUs in the system are taken offline. That means that if
anything important was happening on those CPUs (like something that might
have contributed to the panic) you can't debug them.
Specifically I ran into a case where I got a panic because a task was
"blocked for more than 120 seconds" which was detected on CPU 2. I nicely
got shown stack traces in the kernel log for all CPUs including CPU 0,
which was running 'PID: 111 Comm: kworker/0:1H' and was in the middle of
__mmc_switch().
I then ended up at the kdb prompt where switched over to kgdb to try to
look at local variables of the process on CPU 0. I found that I couldn't.
Digging more, I found that I had no info on any tasks running on CPUs
other than CPU 2 and that asking kdb for help showed me "Error: no saved
data for this cpu". This was because all the CPUs were offline.
Let's move the entry of kdb/kgdb to a direct call from panic() and stop
using the generic notifier. Putting a direct call in allows us to order
things more properly and it also doesn't seem like we're breaking any
abstractions by calling into the debugger from the panic function.
Daniel said:
: This patch changes the way kdump and kgdb interact with each other.
: However it would seem rather odd to have both tools simultaneously armed
: and, even if they were, the user still has the option to use panic_timeout
: to force a kdump to happen. Thus I think the change of order is
: acceptable.

Commit 9012d01166 ("compiler: allow all arches to enable
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING") allowed all architectures to enable this
option. A couple of build errors were reported by randconfig, but all of
them have been ironed out.
Towards the goal of removing CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING entirely (and it
will simplify the 'inline' macro in compiler_types.h), this commit changes
it to always-on option. Going forward, the compiler will always be
allowed to not inline functions marked 'inline'.
This is not a problem for x86 since it has been long used by
arch/x86/configs/{x86_64,i386}_defconfig.
I am keeping the config option just in case any problem crops up for other
architectures.
The code clean-up will be done after confirming this is solid.

commit 9ec4ecef0a ("kexec_file,x86,powerpc: factor out kexec_file_ops

and proper prototype declaration is therefore important, so bring it back.
This fixes the following sparse warning on s390:

'arch_kexec_kernel_image_probe' was not declared. Should it be static?
