xfs_filemap_pfn_mkwrite() duplicates a lot of __xfs_filemap_fault(). It will also need to handle flushing for synchronous page faults. So just make that function use __xfs_filemap_fault(). Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

We return IOMAP_F_DIRTY flag from ext4_iomap_begin() when asked to prepare blocks for writing and the inode has some uncommitted metadata changes. In the fault handler ext4_dax_fault() we then detect this case (through VM_FAULT_NEEDDSYNC return value) and call helper dax_finish_sync_fault() to flush metadata changes and insert page table entry. Note that this will also dirty corresponding radix tree entry which is what we want - fsync(2) will still provide data integrity guarantees for applications not using userspace flushing. And applications using userspace flushing can avoid calling fsync(2) and thus avoid the performance overhead.

Add a flag to iomap interface informing the caller that inode needs fdstasync(2) for returned extent to become persistent and use it in DAX fault code so that we don't map such extents into page tables immediately. Instead we propagate the information that fdatasync(2) is necessary from dax_iomap_fault() with a new VM_FAULT_NEEDDSYNC flag. Filesystem fault handler is then responsible for calling fdatasync(2) and inserting pfn into page tables.

Currently we dirty radix tree entry whenever dax_insert_mapping_entry() gets called for a write fault. With synchronous page faults we would like to insert clean radix tree entry and dirty it only once we call fdatasync() and update page tables to save some unnecessary cache flushing. Add 'dirty' argument to dax_insert_mapping_entry() for that.

The mmap(2) syscall suffers from the ABI anti-pattern of not validating unknown flags. However, proposals like MAP_SYNC need a mechanism to define new behavior that is known to fail on older kernels without the support. Define a new MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE flag pattern that is guaranteed to fail on all legacy mmap implementations. It is worth noting that the original proposal was for a standalone MAP_VALIDATE flag. However, when that could not be supported by all archs Linus observed: I see why you *think* you want a bitmap. You think you want a bitmap because you want to make MAP_VALIDATE be part of MAP_SYNC etc, so that people can do ret = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED | MAP_SYNC, fd, 0); and "know" that MAP_SYNC actually takes. And I'm saying that whole wish is bogus. You're fundamentally depending on special semantics, just make it explicit. It's already not portable, so don't try to make it so. Rename that MAP_VALIDATE as MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, make it have a value of 0x3, and make people do ret = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE | MAP_SYNC, fd, 0); and then the kernel side is easier too (none of that random garbage playing games with looking at the "MAP_VALIDATE bit", but just another case statement in that map type thing. Boom. Done. Similar to ->fallocate() we also want the ability to validate the support for new flags on a per ->mmap() 'struct file_operations' instance basis. Towards that end arrange for flags to be generically validated against a mmap_supported_flags exported by 'struct file_operations'. By default all existing flags are implicitly supported, but new flags require MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE and per-instance-opt-in.

_calc_vm_trans() does not handle the situation when some of the passed flags are 0 (which can happen if these VM flags do not make sense for the architecture). Improve the _calc_vm_trans() macro to return 0 in such situation. Since all passed flags are constant, this does not add any runtime overhead.

Pull watchddog clean-up and fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "The watchdog (hard/softlockup detector) code is pretty much broken in its current state. The patch series addresses this by removing all duct tape and refactoring it into a workable state. The reasons why I ask for inclusion that late in the cycle are: 1) The code causes lockdep splats vs. hotplug locking which get reported over and over. Unfortunately there is no easy fix. 2) The risk of breakage is minimal because it's already broken 3) As 4.14 is a long term stable kernel, I prefer to have working watchdog code in that and the lockdep issues resolved. I wouldn't ask you to pull if 4.14 wouldn't be a LTS kernel or if the solution would be easy to backport. 4) The series was around before the merge window opened, but then got delayed due to the UP failure caused by the for_each_cpu() surprise which we discussed recently. Changes vs. V1: - Addressed your review points - Addressed the warning in the powerpc code which was discovered late - Changed two function names which made sense up to a certain point in the series. Now they match what they do in the end. - Fixed a 'unused variable' warning, which got not detected by the intel robot. I triggered it when trying all possible related config combinations manually.

We register the pm/hotplug callbacks for FPSIMD as late_initcall, which happens after the userspace is active (from initramfs via populate_rootfs, a rootfs_initcall). Make sure we are ready even before the userspace could potentially use it, by promoting to a core_initcall.

We trap and emulate some instructions (e.g, mrs, deprecated instructions) for the userspace. However the handlers for these are registered as late_initcalls and the userspace could be up and running from the initramfs by that time (with populate_rootfs, which is a rootfs_initcall()). This could cause problems for the early applications ending up in failure like : [ 11.152061] modprobe[93]: undefined instruction: pc=0000ffff8ca48ff4 This patch promotes the specific calls to core_initcalls, which are guaranteed to be completed before we hit userspace.
