      erspan: remove the incorrect mtu limit for erspan · 0e141f75
      Haishuang Yan authored 
      erspan driver calls ether_setup(), after commit 61e84623
("net: centralize net_device min/max MTU checking"), the range
of mtu is [min_mtu, max_mtu], which is [68, 1500] by default.

It causes the dev mtu of the erspan device to not be greater
than 1500, this limit value is not correct for ipgre tap device.

Tested:
Before patch:
# ip link set erspan0 mtu 1600
Error: mtu greater than device maximum.
After patch:
# ip link set erspan0 mtu 1600
# ip -d link show erspan0
21: erspan0@NONE: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1600 qdisc noop state DOWN
mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000

      Merge branch 'hugepage-fallbacks' (hugepatch patches from David Rientjes) · edf445ad
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Merge hugepage allocation updates from David Rientjes:
 "We (mostly Linus, Andrea, and myself) have been discussing offlist how
  to implement a sane default allocation strategy for hugepages on NUMA
  platforms.

  With these reverts in place, the page allocator will happily allocate
  a remote hugepage immediately rather than try to make a local hugepage
  available. This incurs a substantial performance degradation when
  memory compaction would have otherwise made a local hugepage
  available.

  This series reverts those reverts and attempts to propose a more sane
  default allocation strategy specifically for hugepages. Andrea
  acknowledges this is likely to fix the swap storms that he originally
  reported that resulted in the patches that removed __GFP_THISNODE from
  hugepage allocations.

  The immediate goal is to return 5.3 to the behavior the kernel has
  implemented over the past several years so that remote hugepages are
  not immediately allocated when local hugepages could have been made
  available because the increased access latency is untenable.

  The next goal is to introduce a sane default allocation strategy for
  hugepages allocations in general regardless of the configuration of
  the system so that we prevent thrashing of local memory when
  compaction is unlikely to succeed and can prefer remote hugepages over
  remote native pages when the local node is low on memory."

Note on timing: this reverts the hugepage VM behavior changes that got
introduced fairly late in the 5.3 cycle, and that fixed a huge
performance regression for certain loads that had been around since
4.18.

Andrea had this note:

 "The regression of 4.18 was that it was taking hours to start a VM
  where 3.10 was only taking a few seconds, I reported all the details
  on lkml when it was finally tracked down in August 2018.

     https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20180820032640.9896-2-aarcange@redhat.com/

  __GFP_THISNODE in MADV_HUGEPAGE made the above enterprise vfio
  workload degrade like in the "current upstream" above. And it still
  would have been that bad as above until 5.3-rc5"

where the bad behavior ends up happening as you fill up a local node,
and without that change, you'd get into the nasty swap storm behavior
due to compaction working overtime to make room for more memory on the
nodes.

As a result 5.3 got the two performance fix reverts in rc5.

However, David Rientjes then noted that those performance fixes in turn
regressed performance for other loads - although not quite to the same
degree.  He suggested reverting the reverts and instead replacing them
with two small changes to how hugepage allocations are done (patch
descriptions rephrased by me):

 - "avoid expensive reclaim when compaction may not succeed": just admit
   that the allocation failed when you're trying to allocate a huge-page
   and compaction wasn't successful.

 - "allow hugepage fallback to remote nodes when madvised": when that
   node-local huge-page allocation failed, retry without forcing the
   local node.

but by then I judged it too late to replace the fixes for a 5.3 release.
So 5.3 was released with behavior that harked back to the pre-4.18 logic.

But now we're in the merge window for 5.4, and we can see if this
alternate model fixes not just the horrendous swap storm behavior, but
also restores the performance regression that the late reverts caused.

Fingers crossed.

      mm, page_alloc: allow hugepage fallback to remote nodes when madvised · 76e654cc
      David Rientjes authored 
      For systems configured to always try hard to allocate transparent
hugepages (thp defrag setting of "always") or for memory that has been
explicitly madvised to MADV_HUGEPAGE, it is often better to fallback to
remote memory to allocate the hugepage if the local allocation fails
first.

The point is to allow the initial call to __alloc_pages_node() to attempt
to defragment local memory to make a hugepage available, if possible,
rather than immediately fallback to remote memory.  Local hugepages will
always have a better access latency than remote (huge)pages, so an attempt
to make a hugepage available locally is always preferred.

If memory compaction cannot be successful locally, however, it is likely
better to fallback to remote memory.  This could take on two forms: either
allow immediate fallback to remote memory or do per-zone watermark checks.
It would be possible to fallback only when per-zone watermarks fail for
order-0 memory, since that would require local reclaim for all subsequent
faults so remote huge allocation is likely better than thrashing the local
zone for large workloads.

In this case, it is assumed that because the system is configured to try
hard to allocate hugepages or the vma is advised to explicitly want to try
hard for hugepages that remote allocation is better when local allocation
and memory compaction have both failed.

      mm, page_alloc: avoid expensive reclaim when compaction may not succeed · b39d0ee2
      David Rientjes authored 
      Memory compaction has a couple significant drawbacks as the allocation
order increases, specifically:

 - isolate_freepages() is responsible for finding free pages to use as
   migration targets and is implemented as a linear scan of memory
   starting at the end of a zone,

 - failing order-0 watermark checks in memory compaction does not account
   for how far below the watermarks the zone actually is: to enable
   migration, there must be *some* free memory available.  Per the above,
   watermarks are not always suffficient if isolate_freepages() cannot
   find the free memory but it could require hundreds of MBs of reclaim to
   even reach this threshold (read: potentially very expensive reclaim with
   no indication compaction can be successful), and

 - if compaction at this order has failed recently so that it does not even
   run as a result of deferred compaction, looping through reclaim can often
   be pointless.

For hugepage allocations, these are quite substantial drawbacks because
these are very high order allocations (order-9 on x86) and falling back to
doing reclaim can potentially be *very* expensive without any indication
that compaction would even be successful.

Reclaim itself is unlikely to free entire pageblocks and certainly no
reliance should be put on it to do so in isolation (recall lumpy reclaim).
This means we should avoid reclaim and simply fail hugepage allocation if
compaction is deferred.

It is also not helpful to thrash a zone by doing excessive reclaim if
compaction may not be able to access that memory.  If order-0 watermarks
fail and the allocation order is sufficiently large, it is likely better
to fail the allocation rather than thrashing the zone.

      David Rientjes authored 
      This reverts commit 92717d42.

Since commit a8282608 ("Revert "mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage
allocations"") is reverted in this series, it is better to restore the
previous 5.2 behavior between the thp allocation and the page allocator
rather than to attempt any consolidation or cleanup for a policy that is
now reverted.  It's less risky during an rc cycle and subsequent patches
in this series further modify the same policy that the pre-5.3 behavior
implements.

Consolidation and cleanup can be done subsequent to a sane default page
allocation strategy, so this patch reverts a cleanup done on a strategy
that is now reverted and thus is the least risky option.

      David Rientjes authored 
      This reverts commit a8282608.

The commit references the original intended semantic for MADV_HUGEPAGE
which has subsequently taken on three unique purposes:

 - enables or disables thp for a range of memory depending on the system's
   config (is thp "enabled" set to "always" or "madvise"),

 - determines the synchronous compaction behavior for thp allocations at
   fault (is thp "defrag" set to "always", "defer+madvise", or "madvise"),
   and

 - reverts a previous MADV_NOHUGEPAGE (there is no madvise mode to only
   clear previous hugepage advice).

These are the three purposes that currently exist in 5.2 and over the
past several years that userspace has been written around.  Adding a
NUMA locality preference adds a fourth dimension to an already conflated
advice mode.

Based on the semantic that MADV_HUGEPAGE has provided over the past
several years, there exist workloads that use the tunable based on these
principles: specifically that the allocation should attempt to
defragment a local node before falling back.  It is agreed that remote
hugepages typically (but not always) have a better access latency than
remote native pages, although on Naples this is at parity for
intersocket.

The revert commit that this patch reverts allows hugepage allocation to
immediately allocate remotely when local memory is fragmented.  This is
contrary to the semantic of MADV_HUGEPAGE over the past several years:
that is, memory compaction should be attempted locally before falling
back.

The performance degradation of remote hugepages over local hugepages on
Rome, for example, is 53.5% increased access latency.  For this reason,
the goal is to revert back to the 5.2 and previous behavior that would
attempt local defragmentation before falling back.  With the patch that
is reverted by this patch, we see performance degradations at the tail
because the allocator happily allocates the remote hugepage rather than
even attempting to make a local hugepage available.

zone_reclaim_mode is not a solution to this problem since it does not
only impact hugepage allocations but rather changes the memory
allocation strategy for *all* page allocations.

      Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "An assortment of fixes that were either missed by me, or didn't arrive
  quite in time for the first v5.4 pull.

   - Most notable is a fix for an issue with tlbie (broadcast TLB
     invalidation) on Power9, when using the Radix MMU. The tlbie can
     race with an mtpid (move to PID register, essentially MMU context
     switch) on another thread of the core, which can cause stores to
     continue to go to a page after it's unmapped.

   - A fix in our KVM code to add a missing barrier, the lack of which
     has been observed to cause missed IPIs and subsequently stuck CPUs
     in the host.

   - A change to the way we initialise PCR (Processor Compatibility
     Register) to make it forward compatible with future CPUs.

   - On some older PowerVM systems our H_BLOCK_REMOVE support could
     oops, fix it to detect such systems and fallback to the old
     invalidation method.

   - A fix for an oops seen on some machines when using KASAN on 32-bit.

   - A handful of other minor fixes, and two new selftests.

      Pull scheduler fixes from Ingo Molnar:

 - Apply a number of membarrier related fixes and cleanups, which fixes
   a use-after-free race in the membarrier code

 - Introduce proper RCU protection for tasks on the runqueue - to get
   rid of the subtle task_rcu_dereference() interface that was easy to
   get wrong

 - Misc fixes, but also an EAS speedup

Pull kernel lockdown mode from James Morris:
 "This is the latest iteration of the kernel lockdown patchset, from
  Matthew Garrett, David Howells and others.

  From the original description:

    This patchset introduces an optional kernel lockdown feature,
    intended to strengthen the boundary between UID 0 and the kernel.
    When enabled, various pieces of kernel functionality are restricted.
    Applications that rely on low-level access to either hardware or the
    kernel may cease working as a result - therefore this should not be
    enabled without appropriate evaluation beforehand.

    The majority of mainstream distributions have been carrying variants
    of this patchset for many years now, so there's value in providing a
    doesn't meet every distribution requirement, but gets us much closer
    to not requiring external patches.

  There are two major changes since this was last proposed for mainline:

   - Separating lockdown from EFI secure boot. Background discussion is
     covered here: https://lwn.net/Articles/751061/

   -  Implementation as an LSM, with a default stackable lockdown LSM
      module. This allows the lockdown feature to be policy-driven,
      rather than encoding an implicit policy within the mechanism.

  The new locked_down LSM hook is provided to allow LSMs to make a
  policy decision around whether kernel functionality that would allow
  tampering with or examining the runtime state of the kernel should be
  permitted.

  The included lockdown LSM provides an implementation with a simple
  policy intended for general purpose use. This policy provides a coarse
  level of granularity, controllable via the kernel command line:

    lockdown={integrity|confidentiality}

  Enable the kernel lockdown feature. If set to integrity, kernel features
  that allow userland to modify the running kernel are disabled. If set to
  confidentiality, kernel features that allow userland to extract
  confidential information from the kernel are also disabled.

  This may also be controlled via /sys/kernel/security/lockdown and
  overriden by kernel configuration.

  New or existing LSMs may implement finer-grained controls of the
  lockdown features. Refer to the lockdown_reason documentation in
  include/linux/security.h for details.

  The lockdown feature has had signficant design feedback and review
  across many subsystems. This code has been in linux-next for some
  weeks, with a few fixes applied along the way.

  Stephen Rothwell noted that commit 9d1f8be5 ("bpf: Restrict bpf
  when kernel lockdown is in confidentiality mode") is missing a
  Signed-off-by from its author. Matthew responded that he is providing
  this under category (c) of the DCO"
