mm: reduce rmap overhead for ex-KSM page copies created on swap faults
When ex-KSM pages are faulted from swap cache, the fault handler is not
capable of re-establishing anon_vma-spanning KSM pages. In this case, a
copy of the page is created instead, just like during a COW break.
These freshly made copies are known to be exclusive to the faulting VMA
and there is no reason to go look for this page in parent and sibling
processes during rmap operations.
Use page_add_new_anon_rmap() for these copies. This also puts them on the
proper LRU lists and marks them SwapBacked, so we can get rid of doing
this ad-hoc in the KSM copy code.

mm: vmscan: compaction works against zones, not lruvecs
The restart logic for when reclaim operates back to back with compaction
is currently applied on the lruvec level. But this does not make sense,
because the container of interest for compaction is a zone as a whole, not
the zone pages that are part of a certain memory cgroup.
Negative impact is bounded. For one, the code checks that the lruvec has
enough reclaim candidates, so it does not risk getting stuck on a
condition that can not be fulfilled. And the unfairness of hammering on
one particular memory cgroup to make progress in a zone will be amortized
by the round robin manner in which reclaim goes through the memory
cgroups. Still, this can lead to unnecessary allocation latencies when
the code elects to restart on a hard to reclaim or small group when there
are other, more reclaimable groups in the zone.
Move this logic to the zone level and restart reclaim for all memory
cgroups in a zone when compaction requires more free pages from it.

Reclaim pressure balance between anon and file pages is calculated through

Exceptional cases that want to force-scan anon or file pages configure the

mm: vmscan: clarify how swappiness, highest priority, memcg interact
A swappiness of 0 has a slightly different meaning for global reclaim (may
swap if file cache really low) and memory cgroup reclaim (never swap,
ever).
In addition, global reclaim at highest priority will scan all LRU lists
equal to their size and ignore other balancing heuristics. UNLESS
swappiness forbids swapping, then the lists are balanced based on recent
reclaim effectiveness. UNLESS file cache is running low, then anonymous
pages are force-scanned.
This (total mess of a) behaviour is implicit and not obvious from the way
the code is organized. At least make it apparent in the code flow and
document the conditions. It will be it easier to come up with sane
semantics later.

mm: vmscan: save work scanning (almost) empty LRU lists
In certain cases (kswapd reclaim, memcg target reclaim), a fixed minimum
amount of pages is scanned from the LRU lists on each iteration, to make
progress.
Do not make this minimum bigger than the respective LRU list size,
however, and save some busy work trying to isolate and reclaim pages that
are not there.
Empty LRU lists are quite common with memory cgroups in NUMA environments
because there exists a set of LRU lists for each zone for each memory
cgroup, while the memory of a single cgroup is expected to stay on just
one node. The number of expected empty LRU lists is thus
memcgs * (nodes - 1) * lru types
Each attempt to reclaim from an empty LRU list does expensive size
comparisons between lists, acquires the zone's lru lock etc. Avoid that.

cfq: fix lock imbalance with failed allocations
While stress-running very-small container scenarios with the Kernel Memory
Controller, I've run into a lockdep-detected lock imbalance in
cfq-iosched.c.
I'll apologize beforehand for not posting a backlog: I didn't anticipate
it would be so hard to reproduce, so I didn't save my serial output and
went directly on debugging. Turns out that it did not happen again in
more than 20 runs, making it a quite rare pattern.
But here is my analysis:
When we are in very low-memory situations, we will arrive at
cfq_find_alloc_queue and may not find a queue, having to resort to the oom
queue, in an rcu-locked condition:
if (!cfqq || cfqq == &cfqd->oom_cfqq)
[ ... ]
Next, we will release the rcu lock, and try to allocate a queue, retrying
if we succeed:
And right before exiting, we'll issue rcu_read_unlock().
Being already unlocked, this is the likely source of our imbalance. Since
cfqq is either already NULL or made NULL in the first statement of the
outter branch, the only viable alternative here seems to be to return the
oom queue right away in case of allocation failure.
Please review the following patch and apply if you agree with my analysis.

cyber2000fb: avoid palette corruption at higher clocks
When 1280x1024@75Hz mode is set, console palette is not set properly -
sometimes the background is white, sometimes yellow and text colors are
also messed up. This does not happen at 1280x1024@60Hz and below.
It seems that the HW needs some time before setting the palette - maybe
the PLL needs more time to lock at higher speeds. This patch fixes the
problem but without knowing what register to check for PLL lock(?), the
delay might be excessive.

pcmcia: move unbind/rebind into dev_pm_ops.complete
Move the device rebind procedures for cardbus devices from the pm.resume
into the pm.complete callback.
The reason for moving the code is: "[...] The PM code needs to send
suspend and resume messages to every device in the right order, and it
can't do that if new devices are being added at the same time. [...]"
However the situation really isn't quite that rigid. In particular,
adding new children during a resume callback shouldn't cause much of
problem because the children don't need to be resumed anyway (since they
were never suspended). On the other hand, if you do it you will get a
dev_warn() from the PM core, something like 'parent should not be
sleeping'.
Still, it is considered bad form and should be avoided if possible."

#define SIZE_TYPE "unsigned int"
Hence __kernel_size_t is also "unsigned int". But __kernel_ssize_t is
"long", which has a different base type, causing compiler warnings like:
fs/quota/quota_tree.c:372:4: warning: format '%zd' expects argument of type 'signed size_t', but argument 4 has type 'ssize_t' [-Wformat]

The lockup happens because _PAGE_GLOBAL and _PAGE_PROTNONE shares the
same bit, and pageattr leaves _PAGE_GLOBAL set on a kernel pte which
is then mistaken as _PAGE_PROTNONE (so pte_present returns true by
mistake and the kernel fault then gets confused and loops).
With THP the same can happen after we taught pmd_present to check
_PAGE_PROTNONE and _PAGE_PSE in commit 027ef6c87853b0a9df5317 ("mm: thp:
fix pmd_present for split_huge_page and PROT_NONE with THP"). THP has the
same problem with _PAGE_GLOBAL as the 4k pages, but it also has a problem
with _PAGE_PSE, which must be cleared too.
After the patch is applied copy_user correctly returns -EFAULT and
doesn't lockup anymore.

Revert "x86, mm: Make spurious_fault check explicitly check the PRESENT bit"
I got a report for a minor regression introduced by commit 027ef6c87853b
("mm: thp: fix pmd_present for split_huge_page and PROT_NONE with THP").
So the problem is, pageattr creates kernel pagetables (pte and pmds) that
breaks pte_present/pmd_present and the patch above exposed this invariant
breakage for pmd_present.
The same problem already existed for the pte and pte_present and it was
fixed by commit 660a293ea9be709 ("x86, mm: Make spurious_fault check
explicitly check the PRESENT bit") (if it wasn't for that commit, it
wouldn't even be a regression). That fix avoids the pagefault to use
pte_present. I could follow through by stopping using
pmd_present/pmd_huge too.
However I think it's more robust to fix pageattr and to clear the
PSE/GLOBAL bitflags too in addition to the present bitflag. So the kernel
page fault can keep using the regular pte_present/pmd_present/pmd_huge.
The confusion arises because _PAGE_GLOBAL and _PAGE_PROTNONE are sharing
the same bit, and in the pmd case we pretend _PAGE_PSE to be set only in
present pmds (to facilitate split_huge_page final tlb flush).

inotify: remove broken mask checks causing unmount to be EINVAL
Running the command:
inotifywait -e unmount /mnt/disk
immediately aborts with a -EINVAL return code. This is however a valid
parameter. This abort occurs only if unmount is the sole event parameter.
If other event parameters are supplied, then the unmount event wait will
work.
The problem was introduced by commit 44b350fc23e ("inotify: Fix mask
checks"). In that commit, it states:
The mask checks in inotify_update_existing_watch() and
inotify_new_watch() are useless because inotify_arg_to_mask()
sets FS_IN_IGNORED and FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD bits anyway.
But instead of removing the useless checks, it did this:
mask = inotify_arg_to_mask(arg);
- if (unlikely(!mask))
+ if (unlikely(!(mask & IN_ALL_EVENTS)))
return -EINVAL;
The problem is that IN_ALL_EVENTS doesn't include IN_UNMOUNT, and other
parts of the code keep IN_UNMOUNT separate from IN_ALL_EVENTS. So the
check should be:
if (unlikely(!(mask & (IN_ALL_EVENTS | IN_UNMOUNT))))
But inotify_arg_to_mask(arg) always sets the IN_UNMOUNT bit in the mask
anyway, so the check is always going to pass and thus should simply be
removed. Also note that inotify_arg_to_mask completely controls what mask
bits get set from arg, there's no way for invalid bits to get enabled
there.
Lets fix it by simply removing the useless broken checks.

Introduce compiletime_assert to compiler.h, which moves the details of how
to break a build and emit an error message for a specific compiler to the
headers where these details should be. Following in the tradition of the
POSIX assert macro, compiletime_assert creates a build-time error when the
supplied condition is *false*.
Next, we add BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG to bug.h which simply wraps
compiletime_assert, inverting the logic, so that it fails when the
condition is *true*, consistent with the language "build bug on." This
macro allows you to specify the error message you want emitted when the
supplied condition is true.
Finally, we remove all other code from bug.h that mucks with these details
(BUILD_BUG & BUILD_BUG_ON), and have them all call BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG. This
not only reduces source code bloat, but also prevents the possibility of
code being changed for one macro and not for the other (which was
previously the case for BUILD_BUG and BUILD_BUG_ON).
Since __compiletime_error_fallback is now only used in compiler.h, I'm
considering it a private macro and removing the double negation that's now
extraneous.

compiler.h, bug.h: Prevent double error messages with BUILD_BUG{,_ON}
Prior to the introduction of __attribute__((error("msg"))) in gcc 4.3,
creating compile-time errors required a little trickery. BUILD_BUG{,_ON}
uses this attribute when available to generate compile-time errors, but
also uses the negative-sized array trick for older compilers, resulting in
two error messages in some cases. The reason it's "some" cases is that as
of gcc 4.4, the negative-sized array will not create an error in some
situations, like inline functions.
This patch replaces the negative-sized array code with the new
__compiletime_error_fallback() macro which expands to the same thing
unless the the error attribute is available, in which case it expands to
do{}while(0), resulting in exactly one compile-time error on all versions
of gcc.
Note that we are not changing the negative-sized array code for the
unoptimized version of BUILD_BUG_ON, since it has the potential to catch
problems that would be disabled in later versions of gcc were
__compiletime_error_fallback used. The reason is that that an unoptimized
build can't always remove calls to an error-attributed function call (like
we are using) that should effectively become dead code if it were
optimized. However, using a negative-sized array with a similar value
will not result in an false-positive (error). The only caveat being that
it will also fail to catch valid conditions, which we should be expecting
in an unoptimized build anyway.

bug.h: Make BUILD_BUG_ON generate compile-time error
Negative sized arrays wont create a compile-time error in some cases
starting with gcc 4.4 (e.g., inlined functions), but gcc 4.3 introduced
the error function attribute that will. This patch modifies BUILD_BUG_ON
to behave like BUILD_BUG already does, using the error function attribute
so that you don't have to build the entire kernel to discover that you
have a problem, and then enjoy trying to track it down from a link-time
error.
Also, we are only including asm/bug.h and then expecting that
linux/compiler.h will eventually be included to define __linktime_error
(used in BUILD_BUG_ON). This patch includes it directly for clarity and
to avoid the possibility of changes in <arch>/*/include/asm/bug.h being
changed or not including linux/compiler.h for some reason.
