microblaze architectures can be configured for either little or big endian formats. Add a choice option for the user to select the correct endian format(default to big endian). Also update the Makefile so toolchain can compile for the format it is configured for.

Patch series "Define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN or warn for inconsistencies", v3. While working on enabling queued rwlock on SPARC, found this following code in include/asm-generic/qrwlock.h which uses CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN to clear a byte. static inline u8 *__qrwlock_write_byte(struct qrwlock *lock) { return (u8 *)lock + 3 * IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN); } Problem is many of the fixed big endian architectures don't define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN and clears the wrong byte. Define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN for all the fixed big endian architecture to fix it. Also found few more references of this config parameter in drivers/of/base.c drivers/of/fdt.c drivers/tty/serial/earlycon.c drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c Be aware that this may cause regressions if someone has worked-around problems in the above code already. Remove the work-around.

First, number of CPUs can't be negative number. Second, different signnnedness leads to suboptimal code in the following cases: 1) kmalloc(nr_cpu_ids * sizeof(X)); "int" has to be sign extended to size_t. 2) while (loff_t *pos < nr_cpu_ids) MOVSXD is 1 byte longed than the same MOV. Other cases exist as well. Basically compiler is told that nr_cpu_ids can't be negative which can't be deduced if it is "int".

Where possible, call memset16(), memmove() or memcpy() instead of using open-coded loops. I don't like the calling convention that uses a byte count instead of a count of u16s, but it's a little late to change that. Reduces code size of fbcon.o by almost 400 bytes on my laptop build.

Alpha already had an optimised fill-memory-with-16-bit-quantity assembler routine called memsetw(). It has a slightly different calling convention from memset16() in that it takes a byte count, not a count of words. That's the same convention used by ARM's __memset routines, so rename Alpha's routine to match and add a memset16() wrapper around it. Then convert Alpha's scr_memsetw() to call memset16() instead of memsetw().

Patch series "Multibyte memset variations", v4. A relatively common idiom we're missing is a function to fill an area of memory with a pattern which is larger than a single byte. I first noticed this with a zram patch which wanted to fill a page with an 'unsigned long' value. There turn out to be quite a few places in the kernel which can benefit from using an optimised function rather than a loop; sometimes text size, sometimes speed, and sometimes both. The optimised PowerPC version (not included here) improves performance by about 30% on POWER8 on just the raw memset_l(). Most of the extra lines of code come from the three testcases I added. This patch (of 8): memset16(), memset32() and memset64() are like memset(), but allow the caller to fill the destination with a value larger than a single byte. memset_l() and memset_p() allow the caller to use unsigned long and pointer values respectively.

If there are large numbers of hugepages to iterate while reading /proc/pid/smaps, the page walk never does cond_resched(). On archs without split pmd locks, there can be significant and observable contention on mm->page_table_lock which cause lengthy delays without rescheduling. Always reschedule in smaps_pte_range() if necessary since the pagewalk iteration can be expensive.

The fadvise() manpage is silent on fadvise()'s effect on memory-based filesystems (shmem, hugetlbfs & ramfs) and pseudo file systems (procfs, sysfs, kernfs). The current implementaion of fadvise is mostly a noop for such filesystems except for FADV_DONTNEED which will trigger expensive remote LRU cache draining. This patch makes the noop of fadvise() on such file systems very explicit. However this change has two side effects for ramfs and one for tmpfs. First fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED) could remove the unmapped clean zero'ed pages of ramfs (allocated through read, readahead & read fault) and tmpfs (allocated through read fault). Also fadvise(FADV_WILLNEED) could create such clean zero'ed pages for ramfs. This change removes those possibilities. One of our generic libraries does fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED). Recently we observed high latency in fadvise() and noticed that the users have started using tmpfs files and the latency was due to expensive remote LRU cache draining. For normal tmpfs files (have data written on them), fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED) will always trigger the unneeded remote cache draining.

page_zone_id() is a specialized function to compare the zone for the pages that are within the section range. If the section of the pages are different, page_zone_id() can be different even if their zone is the same. This wrong usage doesn't cause any actual problem since __munlock_pagevec_fill() would be called again with failed index. However, it's better to use more appropriate function here.

To avoid deviation, the per cpu number of NUMA stats in vm_numa_stat_diff[] is included when a user *reads* the NUMA stats. Since NUMA stats does not be read by users frequently, and kernel does not need it to make a decision, it will not be a problem to make the readers more expensive.

There is significant overhead in cache bouncing caused by zone counters (NUMA associated counters) update in parallel in multi-threaded page allocation (suggested by Dave Hansen). This patch updates NUMA counter threshold to a fixed size of MAX_U16 - 2, as a small threshold greatly increases the update frequency of the global counter from local per cpu counter(suggested by Ying Huang). The rationality is that these statistics counters don't affect the kernel's decision, unlike other VM counters, so it's not a problem to use a large threshold. With this patchset, we see 31.3% drop of CPU cycles(537-->369) for per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark.

Patch series "Separate NUMA statistics from zone statistics", v2. Each page allocation updates a set of per-zone statistics with a call to zone_statistics(). As discussed in 2017 MM summit, these are a substantial source of overhead in the page allocator and are very rarely consumed. This significant overhead in cache bouncing caused by zone counters (NUMA associated counters) update in parallel in multi-threaded page allocation (pointed out by Dave Hansen). A link to the MM summit slides: http://people.netfilter.org/hawk/presentations/MM-summit2017/MM-summit2017-JesperBrouer.pdf To mitigate this overhead, this patchset separates NUMA statistics from zone statistics framework, and update NUMA counter threshold to a fixed size of MAX_U16 - 2, as a small threshold greatly increases the update frequency of the global counter from local per cpu counter (suggested by Ying Huang). The rationality is that these statistics counters don't need to be read often, unlike other VM counters, so it's not a problem to use a large threshold and make readers more expensive. With this patchset, we see 31.3% drop of CPU cycles(537-->369, see below) for per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark. Meanwhile, this patchset keeps the same style of virtual memory statistics with little end-user-visible effects (only move the numa stats to show behind zone page stats, see the first patch for details). I did an experiment of single page allocation and reclaim concurrently using Jesper's page_bench03 benchmark on a 2-Socket Broadwell-based server (88 processors with 126G memory) with different size of threshold of pcp counter.

This is an enhancement to avoid a non cooperative userfaultfd manager having to unregister all regions before it can close the uffd after all userfaultfd activity completed. The UFFDIO_UNREGISTER would serialize against the handle_userfault by taking the mmap_sem for writing, but we can simply repeat the page fault if we detect the uffd was closed and so the regular page fault paths should takeover.

This patch add a new memory migration helpers, which migrate memory backing a range of virtual address of a process to different memory (which can be allocated through special allocator). It differs from numa migration by working on a range of virtual address and thus by doing migration in chunk that can be large enough to use DMA engine or special copy offloading engine. Expected users are any one with heterogeneous memory where different memory have different characteristics (latency, bandwidth, ...). As an example IBM platform with CAPI bus can make use of this feature to migrate between regular memory and CAPI device memory. New CPU architecture with a pool of high performance memory not manage as cache but presented as regular memory (while being faster and with lower latency than DDR) will also be prime user of this patch. Migration to private device memory will be useful for device that have large pool of such like GPU, NVidia plans to use HMM for that.
