      mm: new API kfree_bulk() for SLAB+SLUB allocators · ca257195
      Jesper Dangaard Brouer authored
      This patch introduce a new API call kfree_bulk() for bulk freeing memory
      objects not bound to a single kmem_cache.
      
      Christoph pointed out that it is possible to implement freeing of
      objects, without knowing the kmem_cache pointer as that information is
      available from the object's page->slab_cache.  Proposing to remove the
      kmem_cache argument from the bulk free API.
      
      Jesper demonstrated that these extra steps per object comes at a
      performance cost.  It is only in the case CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is compiled
      in and activated runtime that these steps are done anyhow.  The extra
      cost is most visible for SLAB allocator, because the SLUB allocator does
      the page lookup (virt_to_head_page()) anyhow.
      
      Thus, the conclusion was to keep the kmem_cache free bulk API with a
      kmem_cache pointer, but we can still implement a kfree_bulk() API fairly
      easily.  Simply by handling if kmem_cache_free_bulk() gets called with a
      kmem_cache NULL pointer.
      
      This does increase the code size a bit, but implementing a separate
      kfree_bulk() call would likely increase code size even more.
      
      Below benchmarks cost of alloc+free (obj size 256 bytes) on CPU i7-4790K
      @ 4.00GHz, no PREEMPT and CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM=y.

      slab: implement bulk alloc in SLAB allocator · 2a777eac
      Jesper Dangaard Brouer authored
      This patch implements the alloc side of bulk API for the SLAB allocator.
      
      Further optimization are still possible by changing the call to
      __do_cache_alloc() into something that can return multiple objects.
      This optimization is left for later, given end results already show in
      the area of 80% speedup.

      slab: use slab_post_alloc_hook in SLAB allocator shared with SLUB · d5e3ed66
      Jesper Dangaard Brouer authored
      Reviewers notice that the order in slab_post_alloc_hook() of
      kmemcheck_slab_alloc() and kmemleak_alloc_recursive() gets swapped
      compared to slab.c / SLAB allocator.
      
      Also notice memset now occurs before calling kmemcheck_slab_alloc() and
      kmemleak_alloc_recursive().
      
      I assume this reordering of kmemcheck, kmemleak and memset is okay
      because this is the order they are used by the SLUB allocator.
      
      This patch completes the sharing of alloc_hook's between SLUB and SLAB.

      mm: kmemcheck skip object if slab allocation failed · 0142eae3
      Jesper Dangaard Brouer authored
      In the SLAB allocator kmemcheck_slab_alloc() is guarded against being
      called in case the object is NULL.  In SLUB allocator this NULL pointer
      invocation can happen, which seems like an oversight.
      
      Move the NULL pointer check into kmemcheck code (kmemcheck_slab_alloc)
      so the check gets moved out of the fastpath, when not compiled with
      CONFIG_KMEMCHECK.
      
      This is a step towards sharing post_alloc_hook between SLUB and SLAB,
      because slab_post_alloc_hook() does not perform this check before
      calling kmemcheck_slab_alloc().

      mm: fault-inject take over bootstrap kmem_cache check · fab9963a
      Jesper Dangaard Brouer authored
      Remove the SLAB specific function slab_should_failslab(), by moving the
      check against fault-injection for the bootstrap slab, into the shared
      function should_failslab() (used by both SLAB and SLUB).
      
      This is a step towards sharing alloc_hook's between SLUB and SLAB.
      
      This bootstrap slab "kmem_cache" is used for allocating struct
      kmem_cache objects to the allocator itself.

      slub: clean up code for kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk · 376bf125
      Jesper Dangaard Brouer authored
      This change is primarily an attempt to make it easier to realize the
      optimizations the compiler performs in-case CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not
      enabled.
      
      Performance wise, even when CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is compiled in, the
      overhead is zero.  This is because, as long as no process have enabled
      kmem cgroups accounting, the assignment is replaced by asm-NOP
      operations.  This is possible because memcg_kmem_enabled() uses a
      static_key_false() construct.
      
      It also helps readability as it avoid accessing the p[] array like:
      p[size - 1] which "expose" that the array is processed backwards inside
      helper function build_detached_freelist().
      
      Lastly this also makes the code more robust, in error case like passing
      NULL pointers in the array.  Which were previously handled before commit
      03374518 ("slub: add missing kmem cgroup support to
      kmem_cache_free_bulk").
      
      Fixes: 03374518 ("slub: add missing kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk")

      paride: make 'verbose' parameter an 'int' again · dec63a4d
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      gcc-6.0 found an ancient bug in the paride driver, which had a
      "module_param(verbose, bool, 0);" since before 2.6.12, but actually uses
      it to accept '0', '1' or '2' as arguments:
      
        drivers/block/paride/pd.c: In function 'pd_init_dev_parms':
        drivers/block/paride/pd.c:298:29: warning: comparison of constant '1' with boolean expression is always false [-Wbool-compare]
         #define DBMSG(msg) ((verbose>1)?(msg):NULL)
      
      In 2012, Rusty did a cleanup patch that also changed the type of the
      variable to 'bool', which introduced what is now a gcc warning.
      
      This changes the type back to 'int' and adapts the module_param() line
      instead, so it should work as documented in case anyone ever cares about
      running the ancient driver with debugging.
      
      Fixes: 90ab5ee9 ("module_param: make bool parameters really bool (drivers & misc)")

      block: partition: add partition specific uevent callbacks for partition info · 0d9c51a6
      San Mehat authored
      This patch has been carried in the Android tree for quite some time and
      is one of the few patches required to get a mainline kernel up and
      running with an exsiting Android userspace.  So I wanted to submit it
      for review and consideration if it should be merged.
      
      For partitions, add new uevent parameters 'PARTN' which specifies the
      partitions index in the table, and 'PARTNAME', which specifies PARTNAME
      specifices the partition name of a partition device.
      
      Android's userspace uses this for creating device node links from the
      partition name and number, ie:
      
          /dev/block/platform/soc/by-name/system
      or
          /dev/block/platform/soc/by-num/p1
      
      One can see its usage here:
          https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/master/init/devices.cpp#355
      and
          https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/master/init/devices.cpp#494

      ocfs2: fix a tiny race that leads file system read-only · 814ce694
      Jiufei Xue authored
      when o2hb detect a node down, it first set the dead node to recovery map
      and create ocfs2rec which will replay journal for dead node.  o2hb
      thread then call dlm_do_local_recovery_cleanup() to delete the lock for
      dead node.  After the lock of dead node is gone, locks for other nodes
      can be granted and may modify the meta data without replaying journal of
      the dead node.  The detail is described as follows.
      
           N1                         N2                   N3(master)
      modify the extent tree of
      inode, and commit
      dirty metadata to journal,
      then goes down.
                                                       o2hb thread detects
                                                       N1 goes down, set
                                                       recovery map and
                                                       delete the lock of N1.
      
                                                       dlm_thread flush ast
                                                       for the lock of N2.
                              do not detect the death
                              of N1, so recovery map is
                              empty.
      
                              read inode from disk
                              without replaying
                              the journal of N1 and
                              modify the extent tree
                              of the inode that N1
                              had modified.
                                                       ocfs2rec recover the
                                                       journal of N1.
                                                       The modification of N2
                                                       is lost.
      
      The modification of N1 and N2 are not serial, and it will lead to
      read-only file system.  We can set recovery_waiting flag to the lock
      resource after delete the lock for dead node to prevent other node from
      getting the lock before dlm recovery.  After dlm recovery, the recovery
      map on N2 is not empty, ocfs2_inode_lock_full_nested() will wait for ocfs2
      recovery.

      While building we are getting warnings:
      
        arch/m32r/mm/init.c:63:17: warning: unused variable 'low'
        arch/m32r/mm/init.c:62:17: warning: unused variable 'max_dma'
      
      max_dma and low are only used if CONFIG_MMU is defined.  Lets declare
      the variables inside the #ifdef.

           As most distributions enable CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS=y due to its

           waitqueues without any of the more complex features of full-blown
           waitqueues (callbacks, wake flags, wake keys, etc.).  Simple
           waitqueues have less memory overhead and are faster.
      
           Use simple waitqueues in the RCU code (in 4 different places) and
           for handling KVM vCPU wakeups.

       "Main kernel side changes:
      
         - Big reorganization of the x86 perf support code.  The old code grew
           organically deep inside arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf* and its naming
           became somewhat messy.
      
           The new location is under arch/x86/events/, using the following

         - Various fixes and smaller cleanups.
      
        There are lots of perf tooling updates as well.  A few highlights:
      
        perf report/top:
      
           - Hierarchy histogram mode for 'perf top' and 'perf report',
             showing multiple levels, one per --sort entry: (Namhyung Kim)
      
             On a mostly idle system:
      
               # perf top --hierarchy -s comm,dso
      
             Then expand some levels and use 'P' to take a snapshot:
      
               # cat perf.hist.0
               -  92.32%         perf
                     58.20%         perf
                     22.29%         libc-2.22.so
                      5.97%         [kernel]
                      4.18%         libelf-0.165.so
                      1.69%         [unknown]
               -   4.71%         qemu-system-x86
                      3.10%         [kernel]
                      1.60%         qemu-system-x86_64 (deleted)
               +   2.97%         swapper
               #
      
           - Add 'L' hotkey to dynamicly set the percent threshold for
             histogram entries and callchains, i.e.  dynamicly do what the
             --percent-limit command line option to 'top' and 'report' does.
             (Namhyung Kim)
      
        perf mem:
      
           - Allow specifying events via -e in 'perf mem record', also listing
             what events can be specified via 'perf mem record -e list' (Jiri
             Olsa)
      
        perf record:
      
           - Add 'perf record' --all-user/--all-kernel options, so that one
             can tell that all the events in the command line should be
             restricted to the user or kernel levels (Jiri Olsa), i.e.:
      
               perf record -e cycles:u,instructions:u
      
             is equivalent to:
      
               perf record --all-user -e cycles,instructions
      
           - Make 'perf record' collect CPU cache info in the perf.data file header:
      
               $ perf record usleep 1
               [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
               [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.017 MB perf.data (7 samples) ]
               $ perf report --header-only -I | tail -10 | head -8
               # CPU cache info:
               #  L1 Data                 32K [0-1]
               #  L1 Instruction          32K [0-1]
               #  L1 Data                 32K [2-3]
               #  L1 Instruction          32K [2-3]
               #  L2 Unified             256K [0-1]
               #  L2 Unified             256K [2-3]
               #  L3 Unified            4096K [0-3]
      
             Will be used in 'perf c2c' and eventually in 'perf diff' to
             allow, for instance running the same workload in multiple
             machines and then when using 'diff' show the hardware difference.
             (Jiri Olsa)
      
           - Improved support for Java, using the JVMTI agent library to do
             jitdumps that then will be inserted in synthesized
             PERF_RECORD_MMAP2 events via 'perf inject' pointed to synthesized
             ELF files stored in ~/.debug and keyed with build-ids, to allow
             symbol resolution and even annotation with source line info, see
             the changeset comments to see how to use it (Stephane Eranian)
      
        perf script/trace:
      
           - Decode data_src values (e.g.  perf.data files generated by 'perf
             mem record') in 'perf script': (Jiri Olsa)
      
               # perf script
                 perf 693 [1] 4.088652: 1 cpu/mem-loads,ldlat=30/P: ffff88007d0b0f40 68100142 L1 hit|SNP None|TLB L1 or L2 hit|LCK No <SNIP>
                                                                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
           - Improve support to 'data_src', 'weight' and 'addr' fields in
             'perf script' (Jiri Olsa)
      
           - Handle empty print fmts in 'perf script -s' i.e. when running
             python or perl scripts (Taeung Song)
      
        perf stat:
      
           - 'perf stat' now shows shadow metrics (insn per cycle, etc) in
             interval mode too.  E.g:
      
               # perf stat -I 1000 -e instructions,cycles sleep 1
               #         time   counts unit events
                  1.000215928  519,620      instructions     #  0.69 insn per cycle
                  1.000215928  752,003      cycles
               <SNIP>
      
           - Port 'perf kvm stat' to PowerPC (Hemant Kumar)
      
           - Implement CSV metrics output in 'perf stat' (Andi Kleen)

      Pull read-only kernel memory updates from Ingo Molnar:
       "This tree adds two (security related) enhancements to the kernel's
        handling of read-only kernel memory:
      
         - extend read-only kernel memory to a new class of formerly writable
           kernel data: 'post-init read-only memory' via the __ro_after_init
           attribute, and mark the ARM and x86 vDSO as such read-only memory.
      
           This kind of attribute can be used for data that requires a once
           per bootup initialization sequence, but is otherwise never modified
           after that point.
      
           This feature was based on the work by PaX Team and Brad Spengler.
      
           (by Kees Cook, the ARM vDSO bits by David Brown.)
      
         - make CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA always enabled on x86 and remove the
           Kconfig option.  This simplifies the kernel and also signals that
           read-only memory is the default model and a first-class citizen.

        This is a tree-wide API rename, to move the dma_*() write-combining

        are kept as compatibility wrappers to not introduce extra breakage.)

       "Various updates:
      
         - Futex scalability improvements: remove page lock use for shared

           benchmarks by over 40% on a 60-core Westmere.  This makes anon-mem
           shared futexes perform close to private futexes.  (Mel Gorman)

      Pull ram resource handling changes from Ingo Molnar:
       "Core kernel resource handling changes to support NVDIMM error
        injection.
      
        This tree introduces a new I/O resource type, IORESOURCE_SYSTEM_RAM,
        for System RAM while keeping the current IORESOURCE_MEM type bit set
        for all memory-mapped ranges (including System RAM) for backward
        compatibility.
      
        With this resource flag it no longer takes a strcmp() loop through the
        resource tree to find "System RAM" resources.
      
        The new resource type is then used to extend ACPI/APEI error injection
        facility to also support NVDIMM"
