When THP migration is being used, memory management code needs to handle
pmd migration entries properly.  This patch uses !pmd_present() or
is_swap_pmd() (depending on whether pmd_none() needs separate code or
not) to check pmd migration entries at the places where a pmd entry is
present.

Since pmd-related code uses split_huge_page(), split_huge_pmd(),
pmd_trans_huge(), pmd_trans_unstable(), or
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), this patch:

1. adds pmd migration entry split code in split_huge_pmd(),

2. takes care of pmd migration entries whenever pmd_trans_huge() is present,

3. makes pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() pmd migration entry aware.

Since split_huge_page() uses split_huge_pmd() and pmd_trans_unstable()
is equivalent to pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), we do not change
them.

Until this commit, a pmd entry should be:
1. pointing to a pte page,
2. is_swap_pmd(),
3. pmd_trans_huge(),
4. pmd_devmap(), or
5. pmd_none().

Add thp migration's core code, including conversions between a PMD entry
and a swap entry, setting PMD migration entry, removing PMD migration
entry, and waiting on PMD migration entries.

This patch makes it possible to support thp migration.  If you fail to
allocate a destination page as a thp, you just split the source thp as
we do now, and then enter the normal page migration.  If you succeed to
allocate destination thp, you enter thp migration.  Subsequent patches
actually enable thp migration for each caller of page migration by
allowing its get_new_page() callback to allocate thps.

TTU_MIGRATION is used to convert pte into migration entry until thp
split completes.  This behavior conflicts with thp migration added later
patches, so let's introduce a new TTU flag specifically for freezing.

try_to_unmap() is used both for thp split (via freeze_page()) and page
migration (via __unmap_and_move()).  In freeze_page(), ttu_flag given
for head page is like below (assuming anonymous thp):

    (TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK | TTU_IGNORE_ACCESS | TTU_RMAP_LOCKED | \
     TTU_MIGRATION | TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD)

and ttu_flag given for tail pages is:

    (TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK | TTU_IGNORE_ACCESS | TTU_RMAP_LOCKED | \
     TTU_MIGRATION)

__unmap_and_move() calls try_to_unmap() with ttu_flag:

    (TTU_MIGRATION | TTU_IGNORE_MLOCK | TTU_IGNORE_ACCESS)

Now I'm trying to insert a branch for thp migration at the top of
try_to_unmap_one() like below

static int try_to_unmap_one(struct page *page, struct vm_area_struct *vma,
                       unsigned long address, void *arg)
  {
          ...
          /* PMD-mapped THP migration entry */
          if (!pvmw.pte && (flags & TTU_MIGRATION)) {
              if (!PageAnon(page))
                  continue;

              set_pmd_migration_entry(&pvmw, page);
              continue;
          }
	  ...
  }

so try_to_unmap() for tail pages called by thp split can go into thp
migration code path (which converts *pmd* into migration entry), while
the expectation is to freeze thp (which converts *pte* into migration
entry.)

I detected this failure as a "bad page state" error in a testcase where
split_huge_page() is called from queue_pages_pte_range().

_PAGE_PSE is used to distinguish between a truly non-present
(_PAGE_PRESENT=0) PMD, and a PMD which is undergoing a THP split and
should be treated as present.

But _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY currently uses the _PAGE_PSE bit, which would
cause confusion between one of those PMDs undergoing a THP split, and a
soft-dirty PMD.  Dropping _PAGE_PSE check in pmd_present() does not work
well, because it can hurt optimization of tlb handling in thp split.

Thus, we need to move the bit.

In the current kernel, bits 1-4 are not used in non-present format since
commit 00839ee3 ("x86/mm: Move swap offset/type up in PTE to work
around erratum").  So let's move _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY to bit 1.  Bit 7
is used as reserved (always clear), so please don't use it for other
purpose.

Patch series "mm: page migration enhancement for thp", v9.

Motivations:

1. THP migration becomes important in the upcoming heterogeneous memory
   systems. As David Nellans from NVIDIA pointed out from other threads
   (http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org/msg1349227.html),
   future GPUs or other accelerators will have their memory managed by
   operating systems. Moving data into and out of these memory nodes
   efficiently is critical to applications that use GPUs or other
   accelerators. Existing page migration only supports base pages, which
   has a very low memory bandwidth utilization. My experiments (see
   below) show THP migration can migrate pages more efficiently.

2. Base page migration vs THP migration throughput.

   Here are cross-socket page migration results from calling
   move_pages() syscall:

   In x86_64, a Intel two-socket E5-2640v3 box,
    - single 4KB base page migration takes 62.47 us, using 0.06 GB/s BW,
    - single 2MB THP migration takes 658.54 us, using 2.97 GB/s BW,
    - 512 4KB base page migration takes 1987.38 us, using 0.98 GB/s BW.

   In ppc64, a two-socket Power8 box,
    - single 64KB base page migration takes 49.3 us, using 1.24 GB/s BW,
    - single 16MB THP migration takes 2202.17 us, using 7.10 GB/s BW,
    - 256 64KB base page migration takes 2543.65 us, using 6.14 GB/s BW.

   THP migration can give us 3x and 1.15x throughput over base page
   migration in x86_64 and ppc64 respectivley.

   You can test it out by using the code here:
      https://github.com/x-y-z/thp-migration-bench

3. Existing page migration splits THP before migration and cannot
   guarantee the migrated pages are still contiguous. Contiguity is
   always what GPUs and accelerators look for. Without THP migration,
   khugepaged needs to do extra work to reassemble the migrated pages
   back to THPs.

This patch (of 10):

Introduce a separate check routine related to MPOL_MF_INVERT flag.  This
patch just does cleanup, no behavioral change.

The fix in the parent made me look at that function, and react to how
illogical and illegible the array initializer was.

Use named array indexes to make it clearer what is going on, and make
the initializer not depend silently on the exact index numbers.

[ The initializer now also shows an odd inconsistency in the naming:
  note the IWCM vs IWPM..   - Linus ]

Remove our use of 'gperf' for generating perfect hashes from some of our
build tools.

This removal was prompted by Masahiro Yamada sending out a patch that
removes all our pre-generated files, and when I tested it, I noticed
that the gperf version I have (3.1) apparently generates code that no
longer works with out code-base because the function interfaces
generated by gperf have changed.

We really don't care that much, and the gperf people changed their
interfaces in ways that makes it annoying to work with them.  Tools that
make it hard to use them should not be used, and the kernel is not at
all interested in some autoconf mess.  So remove the gperf dependency
entirely.

It turns out that if you ignore the pre-generated files, the use of
gperf apparently saved us a whopping fifteen lines of code.  It
obviously wasn't worth it, considering that the pre-generated files are
about 500 lines.

I sent this out as a patch about three weeks ago, and got absolutely
zero responses.  So let's see if anybody notices now that I merge it.
Because there might be serious bugs here, but it WorksForMe(tm).

Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
 "Brazil's Independence Day pull request :-)

  This is one of the biggest media pull requests, with 625 patches
  affecting almost all parts of media (RC, DVB, V4L2, CEC, docs).

  This contains:

   - A lot of new drivers:
     * DVB frontends: mxl5xx, stv0910, stv6111;
     * camera flash: as3645a led driver;
     * HDMI receiver: adv748X;
     * camera sensor: Omnivision 6650 5M driver (ov6650);
     * HDMI CEC: ao-cec meson driver;
     * V4L2: Qualcom camss driver;
     * Remote controller: gpio-ir-tx, pwm-ir-tx and zx-irdec drivers.

   - The DDbridge DVB driver got a massive update, with makes it in sync
     with modern hardware from that vendor;

   - There's an important milestone on this series: the DVB
     documentation was written in 2003, but only started to be updated
     in 2007. It also used to contain several gaps from the time it was
     kept out of tree, mentioning error codes and device nodes that
     never existed upstream. On this series, it received a massive
     update: all non-deprecated digital TV APIs are now in sync with the
     current implementation;

   - Some DVB APIs that aren't used by any upstream driver got removed;

   - Other parts of the media documentation algo got updated, fixing
     some bugs on its PDF output and making it compatible with Sphinx
     version 1.6.

     As the number of hacks required to build PDF output reduced, I hope
     we'll have less troubles as newer versions of our documentation
     toolchain are released (famous last words);

   - As usual, lots of driver cleanups and improvements"

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Nothing really major this release, despite quite a lot of activity.
  Just lots of things all over the place.

  Some things of note include:

   - Access via perf to a new type of PMU (IMC) on Power9, which can
     count both core events as well as nest unit events (Memory
     controller etc).

   - Optimisations to the radix MMU TLB flushing, mostly to avoid
     unnecessary Page Walk Cache (PWC) flushes when the structure of the
     tree is not changing.

   - Reworks/cleanups of do_page_fault() to modernise it and bring it
     closer to other architectures where possible.

   - Rework of our page table walking so that THP updates only need to
     send IPIs to CPUs where the affected mm has run, rather than all
     CPUs.

   - The size of our vmalloc area is increased to 56T on 64-bit hash MMU
     systems. This avoids problems with the percpu allocator on systems
     with very sparse NUMA layouts.

   - STRICT_KERNEL_RWX support on PPC32.

   - A new sched domain topology for Power9, to capture the fact that
     pairs of cores may share an L2 cache.

   - Power9 support for VAS, which is a new mechanism for accessing
     coprocessors, and initial support for using it with the NX
     compression accelerator.

   - Major work on the instruction emulation support, adding support for
     many new instructions, and reworking it so it can be used to
     implement the emulation needed to fixup alignment faults.

   - Support for guests under PowerVM to use the Power9 XIVE interrupt
     controller.

  And probably that many things again that are almost as interesting,
  but I had to keep the list short. Plus the usual fixes and cleanups as
  always.

Pull EFI updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle were:

   - Transparently fall back to other poweroff method(s) if EFI poweroff
     fails (and returns)

   - Use separate PE/COFF section headers for the RX and RW parts of the
     ARM stub loader so that the firmware can use strict mapping
     permissions

   - Add support for requesting the firmware to wipe RAM at warm reboot

   - Increase the size of the random seed obtained from UEFI so CRNG
     fast init can complete earlier

   - Update the EFI framebuffer address if it points to a BAR that gets
     moved by the PCI resource allocation code

   - Enable "reset attack mitigation" of TPM environments: this is
     enabled if the kernel is configured with
     CONFIG_RESET_ATTACK_MITIGATION=y.

   - Clang related fixes

   - Misc cleanups, constification, refactoring, etc"

Currently, aio-nr is incremented in steps of 'num_possible_cpus() * 8'
for io_setup(nr_events, ..) with 'nr_events < num_possible_cpus() * 4':

    ioctx_alloc()
    ...
        nr_events = max(nr_events, num_possible_cpus() * 4);
        nr_events *= 2;
    ...
        ctx->max_reqs = nr_events;
    ...
        aio_nr += ctx->max_reqs;
    ....

This limits the number of aio contexts actually available to much less
than aio-max-nr, and is increasingly worse with greater number of CPUs.

For example, with 64 CPUs, only 256 aio contexts are actually available
(with aio-max-nr = 65536) because the increment is 512 in that scenario.

Note: 65536 [max aio contexts] / (64*4*2) [increment per aio context]
is 128, but make it 256 (double) as counting against 'aio-max-nr * 2':

    ioctx_alloc()
    ...
        if (aio_nr + nr_events > (aio_max_nr * 2UL) ||
        ...
            goto err_ctx;
    ...

This patch uses the original value of nr_events (from userspace) to
increment aio-nr and count against aio-max-nr, which resolves those.
