mm: join struct fault_env and vm_fault
Currently we have two different structures for passing fault information
around - struct vm_fault and struct fault_env. DAX will need more
information in struct vm_fault to handle its faults so the content of
that structure would become event closer to fault_env. Furthermore it
would need to generate struct fault_env to be able to call some of the
generic functions. So at this point I don't think there's much use in
keeping these two structures separate. Just embed into struct vm_fault
all that is needed to use it for both purposes.

mm: unexport __get_user_pages_unlocked()
Unexport the low-level __get_user_pages_unlocked() function and replaces

In hva_to_pfn_slow() we are able to replace __get_user_pages_unlocked()
with get_user_pages_unlocked() since we can now pass gup_flags.
In async_pf_execute() and process_vm_rw_single_vec() we need to pass
different tsk, mm arguments so get_user_pages_remote() is the sane
replacement in these cases (having added manual acquisition and release
of mmap_sem.)
Additionally get_user_pages_remote() reintroduces use of the FOLL_TOUCH

appears to have been unintentional and reintroducing it is therefore not

mm: add locked parameter to get_user_pages_remote()
Patch series "mm: unexport __get_user_pages_unlocked()".
This patch series continues the cleanup of get_user_pages*() functions
taking advantage of the fact we can now pass gup_flags as we please.
It firstly adds an additional 'locked' parameter to
get_user_pages_remote() to allow for its callers to utilise
VM_FAULT_RETRY functionality. This is necessary as the invocation of
__get_user_pages_unlocked() in process_vm_rw_single_vec() makes use of
this and no other existing higher level function would allow it to do
so.
Secondly existing callers of __get_user_pages_unlocked() are replaced
with the appropriate higher-level replacement -
get_user_pages_unlocked() if the current task and memory descriptor are
referenced, or get_user_pages_remote() if other task/memory descriptors
are referenced (having acquiring mmap_sem.)
This patch (of 2):
Add a int *locked parameter to get_user_pages_remote() to allow
VM_FAULT_RETRY faulting behaviour similar to get_user_pages_[un]locked().
Taking into account the previous adjustments to get_user_pages*()
functions allowing for the passing of gup_flags, we are now in a
position where __get_user_pages_unlocked() need only be exported for his
ability to allow VM_FAULT_RETRY behaviour, this adjustment allows us to
subsequently unexport __get_user_pages_unlocked() as well as allowing
for future flexibility in the use of get_user_pages_remote().

ipc/sem: optimize perform_atomic_semop()
This is the main workhorse that deals with semop user calls such that
the waitforzero or semval update operations, on the set, can complete on
not as the sma currently stands. Currently, the set is iterated twice
(setting semval, then backwards for the sempid value). Slowpaths, and
particularly SEM_UNDO calls, must undo any altered sem when it is
detected that the caller must block or has errored-out.
With larger sets, there can occur situations where this involves a lot
of cycles and can obviously be a suboptimal use of cached resources in
shared memory. Ie, discarding CPU caches that are also calling semop
and have the sembuf cached (and can complete), while the current lock
holder doing the semop will block, error, or does a waitforzero
operation.
This patch proposes still iterating the set twice, but the first scan is
read-only, and we perform the actual updates afterward, once we know
that the call will succeed. In order to not suffer from the overhead of
dealing with sops that act on the same sem_num, such (rare) cases use
perform_atomic_semop_slow(), which is exactly what we have now.
Duplicates are detected before grabbing sem_lock, and uses simple a
32/64-bit hash array variable to based on the sem_num we are working on.
In addition add some comments to when we expect to the caller to block.

o We get rid of the IN_WAKEUP complexities. Given that wake_q_add()

between the wake_q_add() and wake_up_q() window, we cannot race with
sys_exit and the imminent call to wake_up_process().
o By not spinning IN_WAKEUP, we no longer need to disable preemption.

initramfs: allow again choice of the embedded initram compression algorithm
Choosing the appropriate compression option when using an embedded
initramfs can result in significant size differences in the resulting
data.
This is caused by avoiding double compression of the initramfs contents.
For example on my tests, choosing CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE when
compressing the kernel using XZ) results in up to 500KiB differences
(9MiB to 8.5MiB) in the kernel size as the dictionary will not get
polluted with uncomprensible data and may reuse kernel data too.
Despite embedding an uncompressed initramfs, a user may want to allow
for a compressed extra initramfs to be passed using the rd system, for
example to boot a recovery system. 9ba4bcb645898d ("initramfs: read
CONFIG_RD_ variables for initramfs compression") broke that behavior by
making the choice based on CONFIG_RD_* instead of adding
CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZ4. Saddly, CONFIG_RD_* is also used to
choose the supported RD compression algorithms by the kernel and a user
may want to support more than one.
This patch also reverts commit 3e4e0f0a875 ("initramfs: remove
"compression mode" choice") restoring back the "compression mode" choice
and includes the CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZ4 option which was never
added.
As a result the following options are added or readed affecting the embedded
initramfs compression:
INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_NONE Do no compression
INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_GZIP Compress using gzip
INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_BZIP2 Compress using bzip2
INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZMA Compress using lzma
INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_XZ Compress using xz
INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZO Compress using lzo
INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_LZ4 Compress using lz4
These depend on the corresponding CONFIG_RD_* option being set (except
NONE which has no dependencies).
This patch depends on the previous one (the previous version didn't) to
simplify the way in which the algorithm is chosen and keep backwards
compatibility with the behaviour introduced by 9ba4bcb645898
("initramfs: read CONFIG_RD_ variables for initramfs compression").

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

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

Patch series "Add support for DMA writable pages being writable by the

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

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

-d /mnt/scratch/10 -d /mnt/scratch/11 \
-d /mnt/scratch/12 -d /mnt/scratch/13 \
-d /mnt/scratch/14 -d /mnt/scratch/15
and indeed is hammers the system with many high order GFP_NOFS requests as
per a simle tracepoint during the load:
$ echo '!(gfp_flags & 0x80) && (gfp_flags &0x400000)' > $TRACE_MNT/events/kmem/mm_page_alloc/filter
I am getting 5287609 order=0
37 order=1 1594905 order=2 3048439 order=3 6699207 order=4
66645 order=5
My testing was done in a kvm guest so performance numbers should be
taken with a grain of salt but there seems to be a difference when the
patch is applied:
So the dropdown at Count 19200000 didn't happen and there was only a
single warning about allocation not making progress
[ 3063.815003] XFS: fs_mark(3272) possible memory allocation deadlock size 65624 in kmem_alloc (mode:0x2408240)
This suggests that the patch has helped even though there is not all that
much of anonymous memory as the workload mostly generates fs metadata. I
assume the success rate would be higher with more anonymous memory which
should be the case in many workloads.

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

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

"The nicest things about this release for me is seeing some older
drivers getting some cleanups and modernization, it's really good to
see things moving forwards even for older drivers.
In content terms it's a fairly humdrum release but where the work has
been happening is great.
- Support for simultaneous use of internal and GPIO chip selects for
devices that require the use of the internal select even if it's
not connected and a GPIO is actually routed to the slave device.
- A major rework and cleanup of the fsl-espi driver from Heiner
Kallweit which should make it work substantially better.
- DMA support for Freescale DSPI IPs.
- New drivers for Freescale LPSPI IPs and Marvell Armada 3700.
- Support for Allwinner H3"

ata: avoid probing NCQ Prio Support if not explicitly requested
Previously, when the ata device was being initialized we were
probing for NCQ prio support by checking the identify information
and also checking the log page that holds information about ncq prio
support.
This caused an error on an Intel HBA so the code is now updated to
only probe for NCQ prio support when the sysfs variable controlling
NCQ prio support is enabled.
tj: Update formatting, switch to spin_[un]lock_irq() and update
locking a bit, use REVALIDATE instead of RESET, and return -EIO
instead of -EINVAL on config failure.

"I wish that was the case. We've pretty much agreed that we'll want to
implement it as a virtual PCIe root bridge, similar to Intels other
'innovation' VMD that we work around that way.
But Intel management has apparently decided that they don't want to
spend more cycles on this now that Lenovo has an optional BIOS that
doesn't force this broken mode anymore, and no one outside of Intel
has enough information to implement something like this.
So for now I guess this warning is it, until Intel reconsideres and

- Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.

Pull VFIO updates from Alex Williamson:
- VFIO updates for v4.10 primarily include a new Mediated Device
interface, which essentially allows software defined devices to be
exposed to users through VFIO. The host vendor driver providing this
virtual device polices, or mediates user access to the device.
These devices often incorporate portions of real devices, for
instance the primary initial users of this interface expose vGPUs
which allow the user to map mediated devices, or mdevs, to a portion
of a physical GPU. QEMU composes these mdevs into PCI representations
using the existing VFIO user API. This enables both Intel KVM-GT
support, which is also expected to arrive into Linux mainline during
the v4.10 merge window, as well as NVIDIA vGPU, and also Channel I/O
devices (aka CCW devices) for s390 virtualization support. (Kirti

Pull clk updates from Stephen Boyd:
"This is a fairly quiet release. We don't have any patches to the core
framework. The only patch that can even be considered "core" adds
another clk_get() variant. The rest of the changes are in drivers for
various SoCs, and we have a few bits for ARM shmobile architecture
code (dts and mach) due to the dependency we're breaking between
shmobile architecture code and its clk driver. Those shmobile bits
have also been pulled into arm-soc tree. Here's the summary:
Core:
- Support for devm_get_clk_from_child() used with DT bindings that
have subnodes with the 'clocks' property
- Four Allwinner SoCs are migrated to the new style clk driver
- Rockchip rk3399,rk3066 PLL optimizations
- i.MX LVDS display glitch fixes and AV PLL precision improvements
- Qualcomm MSM8996 GPU GDSCs, hw controlled GDSCs, and Alpha PLL
support
- Explicit demodularization of always builtin drivers
- Freescale Qoriq ls1012a and ls1046a support
