MIPS was using finish_arch_switch() as a hook to restore and initialize

This is however entirely solvable within switch_to() so get rid of

The cfs_rq's load_avg is composed of runnable_load_avg and blocked_load_avg.
Before this series, sometimes the runnable_load_avg is used, and sometimes

to result in overrated load. Therefore, we get runnable_load_avg back.

the others stale problem is solved.

sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking
The idea of runnable load average (let runnable time contribute to weight)
was proposed by Paul Turner and Ben Segall, and it is still followed by
this rewrite. This rewrite aims to solve the following issues:
1. cfs_rq's load average (namely runnable_load_avg and blocked_load_avg) is
updated at the granularity of an entity at a time, which results in the
cfs_rq's load average is stale or partially updated: at any time, only
one entity is up to date, all other entities are effectively lagging
behind. This is undesirable.
To illustrate, if we have n runnable entities in the cfs_rq, as time
elapses, they certainly become outdated:
t0: cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_old, ..., en_old }
and when we update:
t1: update e1, then we have cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_old, ..., en_old }
t2: update e2, then we have cfs_rq { e1_old, e2_new, ..., en_old }
...
We solve this by combining all runnable entities' load averages together
in cfs_rq's avg, and update the cfs_rq's avg as a whole. This is based
on the fact that if we regard the update as a function, then:
therefore, by this rewrite, we have an entirely updated cfs_rq at the
time we update it:
t1: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new }
t2: update cfs_rq { e1_new, e2_new, ..., en_new }
...
2. cfs_rq's load average is different between top rq->cfs_rq and other
task_group's per CPU cfs_rqs in whether or not blocked_load_average
contributes to the load.
The basic idea behind runnable load average (the same for utilization)
is that the blocked state is taken into account as opposed to only
accounting for the currently runnable state. Therefore, the average
should include both the runnable/running and blocked load averages.
This rewrite does that.
In addition, we also combine runnable/running and blocked averages
of all entities into the cfs_rq's average, and update it together at
once. This is based on the fact that:
This significantly reduces the code as we don't need to separately
maintain/update runnable/running load and blocked load.
3. How task_group entities' share is calculated is complex and imprecise.
We reduce the complexity in this rewrite to allow a very simple rule:
the task_group's load_avg is aggregated from its per CPU cfs_rqs's
load_avgs. Then group entity's weight is simply proportional to its
own cfs_rq's load_avg / task_group's load_avg. To illustrate,
if a task_group has { cfs_rq1, cfs_rq2, ..., cfs_rqn }, then,
task_group_avg = cfs_rq1_avg + cfs_rq2_avg + ... + cfs_rqn_avg, then
To sum up, this rewrite in principle is equivalent to the current one, but
fixes the issues described above. Turns out, it significantly reduces the
code complexity and hence increases clarity and efficiency. In addition,
the new averages are more smooth/continuous (no spurious spikes and valleys)
and updated more consistently and quickly to reflect the load dynamics.
As a result, we have less load tracking overhead, better performance,
and especially better power efficiency due to more balanced load.

OTOH trace_sched_wakeup() is issued at the point where we set

sched/numa: Prefer NUMA hotness over cache hotness
The current load balancer may not try to prevent a task from moving
out of a preferred node to a less preferred node. The reason for this
being:
- Since sched features NUMA and NUMA_RESIST_LOWER are disabled by
default, migrate_degrades_locality() always returns false.
- Even if NUMA_RESIST_LOWER were to be enabled, if its cache hot,
migrate_degrades_locality() never gets called.
The above behaviour can mean that tasks can move out of their
preferred node but they may be eventually be brought back to their
preferred node by numa balancer (due to higher numa faults).
To avoid the above, this commit merges migrate_degrades_locality() and
migrate_improves_locality(). It also replaces 3 sched features NUMA,
NUMA_FAVOUR_HIGHER and NUMA_RESIST_LOWER by a single sched feature
NUMA.

broke it (and replaced the test with NULL with a "list_empty()" test on
a uninitialized list instead, breaking things even further).
So fix it all up to use the regular and real list_empty() handling
(which does not use NULL, but a pointer to itself), also making sure to
initialize the list properly (the previous NULL case was initialized
implicitly by the session being allocated with kzalloc())
This is a combination of patches by Marcel Holtmann and Tedd Ho-Jeong
An.

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
"It's been a busy development cycle for target-core in a number of
different areas.
The fabric API usage for se_node_acl allocation is now within
target-core code, dropping the external API callers for all fabric
drivers tree-wide.
There is a new conversion to RCU hlists for se_node_acl and
se_portal_group LUN mappings, that turns fast-past LUN lookup into a
completely lockless code-path. It also removes the original
hard-coded limitation of 256 LUNs per fabric endpoint.
The configfs attributes for backends can now be shared between core
and driver code, allowing existing drivers to use common code while
still allowing flexibility for new backend provided attributes.
The highlights include:
- Merge sbc_verify_dif_* into common code (sagi)
- Remove iscsi-target support for obsolete IFMarker/OFMarker
(Christophe Vu-Brugier)
- Add bidi support in target/user backend (ilias + vangelis + agover)
- Move se_node_acl allocation into target-core code (hch)
- Add crc_t10dif_update common helper (akinobu + mkp)
- Handle target-core odd SGL mapping for data transfer memory

The reason is that the on-stack FPU registers state variable,
used by the FXSAVE instruction, did not have the required
minimum alignment of 16 bytes, causing the general protection
fault.
This is most likely a GCC bug in older GCC versions, but the
offending commit also added a bogus extra 32-byte alignment
(which GCC ignored too).
So fix this bug by making the variable static again, but also
mark it __initdata this time, because fpu__init_system_mxcsr()
is now an __init function.

sched/numa: Fix numa balancing stats in /proc/pid/sched
Commit 44dba3d5d6a1 ("sched: Refactor task_struct to use
numa_faults instead of numa_* pointers") modified the way
tsk->numa_faults stats are accounted.
However that commit never touched show_numa_stats() that is displayed
in /proc/pid/sched and thus the numbers displayed in /proc/pid/sched
don't match the actual numbers.
Fix it by making sure that /proc/pid/sched reflects the task
fault numbers. Also add group fault stats too.
Also couple of more modifications are added here:
1. Format changes:
- Previously we would list two entries per node, one for private
and one for shared. Also the home node info was listed in each entry.
- Now preferred node, total_faults and current node are
displayed separately.
- Now there is one entry per node, that lists private,shared task and
group faults.
2. Unit changes:
- p->numa_pages_migrated was getting reset after every read of
/proc/pid/sched. It's more useful to have absolute numbers since
differential migrations between two accesses can be more easily
calculated.

ext4: correctly migrate a file with a hole at the beginning
Currently ext4_ind_migrate() doesn't correctly handle a file which
contains a hole at the beginning of the file. This caused the migration
to be done incorrectly, and then if there is a subsequent following
delayed allocation write to the "hole", this would reclaim the same data
blocks again and results in fs corruption.
# assmuing 4k block size ext4, with delalloc enabled
# skip the first block and write to the second block
xfs_io -fc "pwrite 4k 4k" -c "fsync" /mnt/ext4/testfile
# converting to indirect-mapped file, which would move the data blocks
# to the beginning of the file, but extent status cache still marks
# that region as a hole
chattr -e /mnt/ext4/testfile
# delayed allocation writes to the "hole", reclaim the same data block
# again, results in i_blocks corruption
xfs_io -c "pwrite 0 4k" /mnt/ext4/testfile
umount /mnt/ext4

Inode 53, i_blocks is 16, should be 8. Fix? no
...
where testfile has two extents but still be converted to non-extent
based file format.
b) only extent length is checked but not the offset, which would result
in data lose (delalloc) or fs corruption (nodelalloc), because
non-extent based file only supports at most (12 + 2^10 + 2^20 + 2^30)
blocks
If delalloc is enabled, dmesg prints
EXT4-fs warning (device dm-4): ext4_block_to_path:105: block 1342177280 > max in inode 53
EXT4-fs (dm-4): Delayed block allocation failed for inode 53 at logical offset 1342177280 with max blocks 1 with error 5

If delalloc is disabled, e2fsck -nf shows corruption
Inode 53, i_size is 5497558142976, should be 4096. Fix? no
Fix the two issues by
a) forcing all delayed allocation blocks to be allocated before checking
eh->eh_depth and eh->eh_entries
b) limiting the last logical block of the extent is within direct map
ext4: fix reservation release on invalidatepage for delalloc fs
On delalloc enabled file system on invalidatepage operation
in ext4_da_page_release_reservation() we want to clear the delayed
buffer and remove the extent covering the delayed buffer from the extent
status tree.
However currently there is a bug where on the systems with page size >
block size we will always remove extents from the start of the page
regardless where the actual delayed buffers are positioned in the page.
This leads to the errors like this:
EXT4-fs warning (device loop0): ext4_da_release_space:1225:
ext4_da_release_space: ino 13, to_free 1 with only 0 reserved data
blocks
This however can cause data loss on writeback time if the file system is
in ENOSPC condition because we're releasing reservation for someones
else delayed buffer.
Fix this by only removing extents that corresponds to the part of the
page we want to invalidate.
This problem is reproducible by the following fio receipt (however I was
only able to reproduce it with fio-2.1 or older.

- It's a trivial amount of code: since we wrap host/guest accesses
anyway, almost all of it is well hidden from drivers.
- Sane platforms would never set flags like VHOST_CROSS_ENDIAN_LEGACY,
and when it's clear, there's zero overhead (as some point it was

virtio: introduce virtio_is_little_endian() helper
The length of each EDID block is EDID_LENGTH, and number of blocks is
(1 + edid->extensions) - we need to multiply not add them.
This causes wrong EDID to be passed on, and is a regression introduced
by d2ed34362a52 (drm: Introduce helper for replacing blob properties)

Pull user namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"Long ago and far away when user namespaces where young it was realized
that allowing fresh mounts of proc and sysfs with only user namespace
permissions could violate the basic rule that only root gets to decide
if proc or sysfs should be mounted at all.
Some hacks were put in place to reduce the worst of the damage could
be done, and the common sense rule was adopted that fresh mounts of
proc and sysfs should allow no more than bind mounts of proc and
sysfs. Unfortunately that rule has not been fully enforced.
There are two kinds of gaps in that enforcement. Only filesystems
mounted on empty directories of proc and sysfs should be ignored but
the test for empty directories was insufficient. So in my tree
directories on proc, sysctl and sysfs that will always be empty are
created specially. Every other technique is imperfect as an ordinary
directory can have entries added even after a readdir returns and
shows that the directory is empty. Special creation of directories
for mount points makes the code in the kernel a smidge clearer about
it's purpose. I asked container developers from the various container
projects to help test this and no holes were found in the set of mount
points on proc and sysfs that are created specially.
This set of changes also starts enforcing the mount flags of fresh
mounts of proc and sysfs are consistent with the existing mount of
proc and sysfs. I expected this to be the boring part of the work but
unfortunately unprivileged userspace winds up mounting fresh copies of
proc and sysfs with noexec and nosuid clear when root set those flags
on the previous mount of proc and sysfs. So for now only the atime,
read-only and nodev attributes which userspace happens to keep
consistent are enforced. Dealing with the noexec and nosuid
attributes remains for another time.
This set of changes also addresses an issue with how open file
descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ns/* are displayed. Recently readlink of
/proc/<pid>/fd has been triggering a WARN_ON that has not been
meaningful since it was added (as all of the code in the kernel was
converted) and is not now actively wrong.
There is also a short list of issues that have not been fixed yet that
I will mention briefly.
It is possible to rename a directory from below to above a bind mount.
At which point any directory pointers below the renamed directory can
be walked up to the root directory of the filesystem. With user
namespaces enabled a bind mount of the bind mount can be created
allowing the user to pick a directory whose children they can rename
to outside of the bind mount. This is challenging to fix and doubly
so because all obvious solutions must touch code that is in the
performance part of pathname resolution.
As mentioned above there is also a question of how to ensure that
developers by accident or with purpose do not introduce exectuable
files on sysfs and proc and in doing so introduce security regressions
in the current userspace that will not be immediately obvious and as
such are likely to require breaking userspace in painful ways once
they are recognized"

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
"Mainly sending this off now for the writeback fixes, since they fix a
real regression introduced with the cgroup writeback changes. The
NVMe fix could wait for next pull for this series, but it's simple
enough that we might as well include it.
This contains:
- two cgroup writeback fixes from Tejun, fixing a user reported issue
with luks crypt devices hanging when being closed.
- NVMe error cleanup fix from Jon Derrick, fixing a case where we'd
attempt to free an unregistered IRQ"
