      Revert "fast_hash: avoid indirect function calls" · a77f9c5d
      Jay Vosburgh authored
      This reverts commit e5a2c899.
      
      	Commit e5a2c899 introduced an alternative_call, arch_fast_hash2,
      that selects between __jhash2 and __intel_crc4_2_hash based on the
      X86_FEATURE_XMM4_2.
      
      	Unfortunately, the alternative_call system does not appear to be
      suitable for use with C functions, as register usage is not handled
      properly for the called functions.  The __jhash2 function in particular
      clobbers registers that are not preserved when called via
      alternative_call, resulting in a panic for direct callers of
      arch_fast_hash2 on older CPUs lacking sse4_2.  It is possible that
      __intel_crc4_2_hash works merely by chance because it uses fewer
      registers.
      
      	This commit was suggested as the source of the problem by Jesse
      Gross <jesse@nicira.com>.

      mem-hotplug: reset node present pages when hot-adding a new pgdat · 0bd85420
      Tang Chen authored
      When memory is hot-added, all the memory is in offline state.  So clear
      all zones' present_pages because they will be updated in online_pages()
      and offline_pages().  Otherwise, /proc/zoneinfo will corrupt:
      
      When the memory of node2 is offline:
      
        # cat /proc/zoneinfo
        ......
        Node 2, zone   Movable
        ......
              spanned  8388608
              present  8388608
              managed  0
      
      When we online memory on node2:
      
        # cat /proc/zoneinfo
        ......
        Node 2, zone   Movable
        ......

      mem-hotplug: reset node managed pages when hot-adding a new pgdat · f784a3f1
      Tang Chen authored
      In free_area_init_core(), zone->managed_pages is set to an approximate
      value for lowmem, and will be adjusted when the bootmem allocator frees
      pages into the buddy system.
      
      But free_area_init_core() is also called by hotadd_new_pgdat() when
      hot-adding memory.  As a result, zone->managed_pages of the newly added
      node's pgdat is set to an approximate value in the very beginning.
      
      Even if the memory on that node has node been onlined,
      /sys/device/system/node/nodeXXX/meminfo has wrong value:
      
        hot-add node2 (memory not onlined)
        cat /sys/device/system/node/node2/meminfo
        Node 2 MemTotal:       33554432 kB
        Node 2 MemFree:               0 kB
        Node 2 MemUsed:        33554432 kB
        Node 2 Active:                0 kB
      
      This patch fixes this problem by reset node managed pages to 0 after
      hot-adding a new node.
      
      1. Move reset_managed_pages_done from reset_node_managed_pages() to
         reset_all_zones_managed_pages()
      2. Make reset_node_managed_pages() non-static
      3. Call reset_node_managed_pages() in hotadd_new_pgdat() after pgdat
         is initialized

      mm/debug-pagealloc: correct freepage accounting and order resetting · 57cbc87e
      Joonsoo Kim authored
      One thing I did in this patch is fixing freepage accounting.  If we
      clear guard page and link it onto isolate buddy list, we should not
      increase freepage count.  This patch adds conditional branch to skip
      counting in this case.  Without this patch, this overcounting happens
      frequently if guard order is set and CMA is used.
      
      Another thing fixed in this patch is the target to reset order.  In
      __free_one_page(), we check the buddy page whether it is a guard page or
      not.  And, if so, we should clear guard attribute on the buddy page and
      reset order of it to 0.  But, current code resets original page's order
      rather than buddy one's.  Maybe, this doesn't have any problem, because
      whole merged page's order will be re-assigned soon.  But, it is better
      to correct code.

      fanotify: fix notification of groups with inode & mount marks · 8edc6e16
      Jan Kara authored
      fsnotify() needs to merge inode and mount marks lists when notifying
      groups about events so that ignore masks from inode marks are reflected
      in mount mark notifications and groups are notified in proper order
      (according to priorities).
      
      Currently the sorting of the lists done by fsnotify_add_inode_mark() /
      fsnotify_add_vfsmount_mark() and fsnotify() differed which resulted
      ignore masks not being used in some cases.
      
      Fix the problem by always using the same comparison function when
      sorting / merging the mark lists.
      
      Thanks to Heinrich Schuchardt for improvements of my patch.

      mm, compaction: prevent infinite loop in compact_zone · 1d5bfe1f
      Vlastimil Babka authored
      Several people have reported occasionally seeing processes stuck in
      compact_zone(), even triggering soft lockups, in 3.18-rc2+.
      
      Testing a revert of commit e14c720e ("mm, compaction: remember
      position within pageblock in free pages scanner") fixed the issue,
      although the stuck processes do not appear to involve the free scanner.
      
      Finally, by code inspection, the bug was found in isolate_migratepages()
      which uses a slightly different condition to detect if the migration and
      free scanners have met, than compact_finished().  That has not been a
      problem until commit e14c720e allowed the free scanner position
      between individual invocations to be in the middle of a pageblock.
      
      In a relatively rare case, the migration scanner position can end up at
      the beginning of a pageblock, with the free scanner position in the
      middle of the same pageblock.  If it's the migration scanner's turn,
      isolate_migratepages() exits immediately (without updating the
      position), while compact_finished() decides to continue compaction,
      resulting in a potentially infinite loop.  The system can recover only
      if another process creates enough high-order pages to make the watermark
      checks in compact_finished() pass.
      
      This patch fixes the immediate problem by bumping the migration
      scanner's position to meet the free scanner in isolate_migratepages(),
      when both are within the same pageblock.  This causes compact_finished()
      to terminate properly.  A more robust check in compact_finished() is
      planned as a cleanup for better future maintainability.
      
      Fixes: e14c720e ("mm, compaction: remember position within pageblock in free pages scanner)

      mm: alloc_contig_range: demote pages busy message from warn to info · dae803e1
      Michal Nazarewicz authored
      Having test_pages_isolated failure message as a warning confuses users
      into thinking that it is more serious than it really is.  In reality, if
      called via CMA, allocation will be retried so a single
      test_pages_isolated failure does not prevent allocation from succeeding.
      
      Demote the warning message to an info message and reformat it such that
      the text "failed" does not appear and instead a less worrying "PFNS
      busy" is used.
      
      This message is trivially reproducible on a 10GB x86 machine on 3.16.y
      kernels configured with CONFIG_DMA_CMA.

      slab in SLAB.  This causes the unalignment problem after slab merging is
      supported by commit 12220dea ("mm/slab: support slab merge").
      
      Following is the report from Markos that fail to boot on Malta with EVA.

      alloc_unbound_pwq() allocates slab object from pool_workqueue.  This
      kmem_cache requires 256 bytes alignment, but, current merging code
      doesn't honor that, and merge it with kmalloc-256.  kmalloc-256 requires
      only cacheline size alignment so that above failure occurs.  However, in
      x86, kmalloc-256 is luckily aligned in 256 bytes, so the problem didn't
      happen on it.
      
      To fix this problem, this patch introduces alignment mismatch check in
      find_mergeable().  This will fix the problem.
