Files suffixed by .lex.c, .tab.[ch] are generated lexers, parsers, respectively. Clean them up globally from the top Makefile. Some of the final host programs those lexer/parser are linked into are necessary for building external modules, but the intermediates are unneeded. They can be cleaned away by 'make clean' instead of 'make mrproper'. Signed-off-by:

Pull rdma updates from Jason Gunthorpe: "Doug and I are at a conference next week so if another PR is sent I expect it to only be bug fixes. Parav noted yesterday that there are some fringe case behavior changes in his work that he would like to fix, and I see that Intel has a number of rc looking patches for HFI1 they posted yesterday. Parav is again the biggest contributor by patch count with his ongoing work to enable container support in the RDMA stack, followed by Leon doing syzkaller inspired cleanups, though most of the actual fixing went to RC. There is one uncomfortable series here fixing the user ABI to actually work as intended in 32 bit mode. There are lots of notes in the commit messages, but the basic summary is we don't think there is an actual 32 bit kernel user of drivers/infiniband for several good reasons. However we are seeing people want to use a 32 bit user space with 64 bit kernel, which didn't completely work today. So in fixing it we required a 32 bit rxe user to upgrade their userspace. rxe users are still already quite rare and we think a 32 bit one is non-existing. - Fix RDMA uapi headers to actually compile in userspace and be more complete - Three shared with netdev pull requests from Mellanox: * 7 patches, mostly to net with 1 IB related one at the back). This series addresses an IRQ performance issue (patch 1), cleanups related to the fix for the IRQ performance problem (patches 2-6), and then extends the fragmented completion queue support that already exists in the net side of the driver to the ib side of the driver (patch 7). * Mostly IB, with 5 patches to net that are needed to support the remaining 10 patches to the IB subsystem. This series extends the current 'representor' framework when the mlx5 driver is in switchdev mode from being a netdev only construct to being a netdev/IB dev construct. The IB dev is limited to raw Eth queue pairs only, but by having an IB dev of this type attached to the representor for a switchdev port, it enables DPDK to work on the switchdev device. * All net related, but needed as infrastructure for the rdma driver - Updates for the hns, i40iw, bnxt_re, cxgb3, cxgb4, hns drivers - SRP performance updates - IB uverbs write path cleanup patch series from Leon - Add RDMA_CM support to ib_srpt. This is disabled by default. Users need to set the port for ib_srpt to listen on in configfs in order for it to be enabled (/sys/kernel/config/target/srpt/discovery_auth/rdma_cm_port) - TSO and Scatter FCS support in mlx4 - Refactor of modify_qp routine to resolve problems seen while working on new code that is forthcoming - More refactoring and updates of RDMA CM for containers support from Parav - mlx5 'fine grained packet pacing', 'ipsec offload' and 'device memory' user API features - Infrastructure updates for the new IOCTL interface, based on increased usage - ABI compatibility bug fixes to fully support 32 bit userspace on 64 bit kernel as was originally intended.

Pull SELinux updates from Paul Moore: "A bigger than usual pull request for SELinux, 13 patches (lucky!) along with a scary looking diffstat. Although if you look a bit closer, excluding the usual minor tweaks/fixes, there are really only two significant changes in this pull request: the addition of proper SELinux access controls for SCTP and the encapsulation of a lot of internal SELinux state. The SCTP changes are the result of a multi-month effort (maybe even a year or longer?) between the SELinux folks and the SCTP folks to add proper SELinux controls. A special thanks go to Richard for seeing this through and keeping the effort moving forward. The state encapsulation work is a bit of janitorial work that came out of some early work on SELinux namespacing. The question of namespacing is still an open one, but I believe there is some real value in the encapsulation work so we've split that out and are now sending that up to you" * tag 'selinux-pr-20180403' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/selinux: selinux: wrap AVC state selinux: wrap selinuxfs state selinux: fix handling of uninitialized selinux state in get_bools/classes selinux: Update SELinux SCTP documentation selinux: Fix ltp test connect-syscall failure selinux: rename the {is,set}_enforcing() functions selinux: wrap global selinux state selinux: fix typo in selinux_netlbl_sctp_sk_clone declaration selinux: Add SCTP support sctp: Add LSM hooks sctp: Add ip option support security: Add support for SCTP security hooks netlabel: If PF_INET6, check sk_buff ip header version

Merge tag 'for-4.17/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer: - DM core passthrough ioctl fix to retain reference to DM table, and that table's block devices, while issuing the ioctl to one of those block devices. - DM core passthrough ioctl fix to _not_ override the fmode_t used to issue the ioctl. Overriding by using the fmode_t that the block device was originally open with during DM table load is a liability. - Add DM core support for secure erase forwarding and update the DM linear and DM striped targets to support them. - A DM core 4.16 stable fix to allow abnormal IO (e.g. discard, write same, write zeroes) for targets that make use of the non-splitting IO variant (as is done for multipath or thinp when layered directly on NVMe). - Allow DM targets to return a payload in response to a DM message that they are sent. This is useful for DM targets that would like to provide statistics data in response to DM messages. - Update DM bufio to support non-power-of-2 block sizes. Numerous other related changes prepare the DM bufio code for this support. - Fix DM crypt to use a bounded amount of memory across the entire system. This is to avoid OOM that can otherwise occur in response to certain pathological IO workloads (e.g. discarding a large DM crypt device). - Add a 'check_at_most_once' feature to the DM verity target to allow verity to be used on mobile devices that have very limited resources. - Fix the DM integrity target to fail early if a keyed algorithm (e.g. HMAC) is to be used but the key isn't set. - Add non-power-of-2 support to the DM unstripe target. - Eliminate the use of a Variable Length Array in the DM stripe target. - Update the DM log-writes target to record metadata (REQ_META flag). - DM raid fixes for its nosync status and some variable range issues. * tag 'for-4.17/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm: (28 commits) dm: remove fmode_t argument from .prepare_ioctl hook dm: hold DM table for duration of ioctl rather than use blkdev_get dm raid: fix parse_raid_params() variable range issue dm verity: make verity_for_io_block static dm verity: add 'check_at_most_once' option to only validate hashes once dm bufio: don't embed a bio in the dm_buffer structure dm bufio: support non-power-of-two block sizes dm bufio: use slab cache for dm_buffer structure allocations dm bufio: reorder fields in dm_buffer structure dm bufio: relax alignment constraint on slab cache dm bufio: remove code that merges slab caches dm bufio: get rid of slab cache name allocations dm bufio: move dm-bufio.h to include/linux/ dm bufio: delete outdated comment dm: add support for secure erase forwarding dm: backfill abnormal IO support to non-splitting IO submission dm raid: fix nosync status dm mpath: use DM_MAPIO_SUBMITTED instead of magic number 0 in process_queued_bios() dm stripe: get rid of a Variable Length Array (VLA) dm log writes: record metadata flag for better flags record ...

This patch fixes a corner case for KSM. When two pages belong or belonged to the same transparent hugepage, and they should be merged, KSM fails to split the page, and therefore no merging happens. This bug can be reproduced by: * making sure ksm is running (in case disabling ksmtuned) * enabling transparent hugepages * allocating a THP-aligned 1-THP-sized buffer e.g. on amd64: posix_memalign(&p, 1<<21, 1<<21) * filling it with the same values e.g. memset(p, 42, 1<<21) * performing madvise to make it mergeable e.g. madvise(p, 1<<21, MADV_MERGEABLE) * waiting for KSM to perform a few scans The expected outcome is that the all the pages get merged (1 shared and the rest sharing); the actual outcome is that no pages get merged (1 unshared and the rest volatile) The reason of this behaviour is that we increase the reference count once for both pages we want to merge, but if they belong to the same hugepage (or compound page), the reference counter used in both cases is the one of the head of the compound page. This means that split_huge_page will find a value of the reference counter too high and will fail. This patch solves this problem by testing if the two pages to merge belong to the same hugepage when attempting to merge them. If so, the hugepage is split safely. This means that the hugepage is not split if not necessary. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1521548069-24758-1-git-send-email-imbrenda@linux.vnet.ibm.comSigned-off-by:

At present the construct if (VM_WARN(...)) will compile OK with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y and will fail with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=n. The reason is that VM_{WARN,BUG}* have always been special wrt. {WARN/BUG}* and never generate any code when DEBUG_VM is disabled. So we cannot really use it in conditionals. We considered changing things so that this construct works in both cases but that might cause unwanted code generation with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=n. It is safer and simpler to make the build fail in both cases. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: changelog] Signed-off-by: -

start_isolate_page_range() is used to set the migrate type of a set of pageblocks to MIGRATE_ISOLATE while attempting to start a migration operation. It assumes that only one thread is calling it for the specified range. This routine is used by CMA, memory hotplug and gigantic huge pages. Each of these users synchronize access to the range within their subsystem. However, two subsystems (CMA and gigantic huge pages for example) could attempt operations on the same range. If this happens, one thread may 'undo' the work another thread is doing. This can result in pageblocks being incorrectly left marked as MIGRATE_ISOLATE and therefore not available for page allocation. What is ideally needed is a way to synchronize access to a set of pageblocks that are undergoing isolation and migration. The only thing we know about these pageblocks is that they are all in the same zone. A per-node mutex is too coarse as we want to allow multiple operations on different ranges within the same zone concurrently. Instead, we will use the migration type of the pageblocks themselves as a form of synchronization. start_isolate_page_range sets the migration type on a set of page- blocks going in order from the one associated with the smallest pfn to the largest pfn. The zone lock is acquired to check and set the migration type. When going through the list of pageblocks check if MIGRATE_ISOLATE is already set. If so, this indicates another thread is working on this pageblock. We know exactly which pageblocks we set, so clean up by undo those and return -EBUSY. This allows start_isolate_page_range to serve as a synchronization mechanism and will allow for more general use of callers making use of these interfaces. Update comments in alloc_contig_range to reflect this new functionality. Each CPU holds the associated zone lock to modify or examine the migration type of a pageblock. And, it will only examine/update a single pageblock per lock acquire/release cycle. Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180309224731.16978-1-mike.kravetz@oracle.comSigned-off-by:

The plan for these patches is to introduce the typedef, initially just as documentation ("These functions should return a VM_FAULT_ status"). We'll trickle the patches to individual drivers/filesystems in through the maintainers, as far as possible. Then we'll change the typedef to an unsigned int and break the compilation of any unconverted drivers/filesystems. vmf_insert_page(), vmf_insert_mixed() and vmf_insert_pfn() are three newly added functions. The various drivers/filesystems where return value of fault(), huge_fault(), page_mkwrite() and pfn_mkwrite() get converted, will need them. These functions will return correct VM_FAULT_ code based on err value. We've had bugs before where drivers returned -EFOO. And we have this silly inefficiency where vm_insert_xxx() return an errno which (afaict) every driver then converts into a VM_FAULT code. In many cases drivers failed to return correct VM_FAULT code value despite of vm_insert_xxx() fails. We have indentified and clean up all those existing bugs and silly inefficiencies in driver/filesystems by adding these three new inline wrappers. As mentioned above, we will trickle those patches to individual drivers/filesystems in through maintainers after these three wrapper functions are merged. Eventually we can convert vm_insert_xxx() into vmf_insert_xxx() and remove these inline wrappers, but these are a good intermediate step.

Since the 2.6 kernel, the oom killer has slightly biased away from CAP_SYS_ADMIN processes by discounting some of its memory usage in comparison to other processes. This has always been implicit and nothing exactly relies on the behavior. Gaurav notices that __task_cred() can dereference a potentially freed pointer if the task under consideration is exiting because a reference to the task_struct is not held. Remove the CAP_SYS_ADMIN bias so that all processes are treated equally. If any CAP_SYS_ADMIN process would like to be biased against, it is always allowed to adjust /proc/pid/oom_score_adj.

Kswapd will not wakeup if per-zone watermarks are not failing or if too many previous attempts at background reclaim have failed. This can be true if there is a lot of free memory available. For high- order allocations, kswapd is responsible for waking up kcompactd for background compaction. If the zone is not below its watermarks or reclaim has recently failed (lots of free memory, nothing left to reclaim), kcompactd does not get woken up. When __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is not allowed, allow kcompactd to still be woken up even if kswapd will not reclaim. This allows high-order allocations, such as thp, to still trigger background compaction even when the zone has an abundance of free memory.

KASAN splats indicate that in some cases we free a live mm, then continue to access it, with potentially disastrous results. This is likely due to a mismatched mmdrop() somewhere in the kernel, but so far the culprit remains elusive. Let's have __mmdrop() verify that the mm isn't live for the current task, similar to the existing check for init_mm. This way, we can catch this class of issue earlier, and without requiring KASAN. Currently, idle_task_exit() leaves active_mm stale after it switches to init_mm. This isn't harmful, but will trigger the new assertions, so we must adjust idle_task_exit() to update active_mm.

Patch series "zsmalloc/zram: drop zram's max_zpage_size", v3. ZRAM's max_zpage_size is a bad thing. It forces zsmalloc to store normal objects as huge ones, which results in bigger zsmalloc memory usage. Drop it and use actual zsmalloc huge-class value when decide if the object is huge or not. This patch (of 2): Not every object can be share its zspage with other objects, e.g. when the object is as big as zspage or nearly as big a zspage. For such objects zsmalloc has a so called huge class - every object which belongs to huge class consumes the entire zspage (which consists of a physical page). On x86_64, PAGE_SHIFT 12 box, the first non-huge class size is 3264, so starting down from size 3264, objects can share page(-s) and thus minimize memory wastage. ZRAM, however, has its own statically defined watermark for huge objects, namely "3 * PAGE_SIZE / 4 = 3072", and forcibly stores every object larger than this watermark (3072) as a PAGE_SIZE object, in other words, to a huge class, while zsmalloc can keep some of those objects in non-huge classes. This results in increased memory consumption. zsmalloc knows better if the object is huge or not. Introduce zs_huge_class_size() function which tells if the given object can be stored in one of non-huge classes or not. This will let us to drop ZRAM's huge object watermark and fully rely on zsmalloc when we decide if the object is huge.

Thanks to commit 4b3ef9da ("mm/swap: split swap cache into 64MB trunks"), after swapoff the address_space associated with the swap device will be freed. So page_mapping() users which may touch the address_space need some kind of mechanism to prevent the address_space from being freed during accessing. The dcache flushing functions (flush_dcache_page(), etc) in architecture specific code may access the address_space of swap device for anonymous pages in swap cache via page_mapping() function. But in some cases there are no mechanisms to prevent the swap device from being swapoff, for example, CPU1 CPU2 __get_user_pages() swapoff() flush_dcache_page() mapping = page_mapping() ... exit_swap_address_space() ... kvfree(spaces) mapping_mapped(mapping) The address space may be accessed after being freed. But from cachetlb.txt and Russell King, flush_dcache_page() only care about file cache pages, for anonymous pages, flush_anon_page() should be used. The implementation of flush_dcache_page() in all architectures follows this too. They will check whether page_mapping() is NULL and whether mapping_mapped() is true to determine whether to flush the dcache immediately. And they will use interval tree (mapping->i_mmap) to find all user space mappings. While mapping_mapped() and mapping->i_mmap isn't used by anonymous pages in swap cache at all. So, to fix the race between swapoff and flush dcache, __page_mapping() is add to return the address_space for file cache pages and NULL otherwise. All page_mapping() invoking in flush dcache functions are replaced with page_mapping_file().

Patch series "mm, smaps: MMUPageSize for device-dax", v3. Similar to commit 31383c68 ("mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->split() to vm_operations_struct") here is another occasion where we want special-case hugetlbfs/hstate enabling to also apply to device-dax. This prompts the question what other hstate conversions we might do beyond ->split() and ->pagesize(), but this appears to be the last of the usages of hstate_vma() in generic/non-hugetlbfs specific code paths. This patch (of 3): The current powerpc definition of vma_mmu_pagesize() open codes looking up the page size via hstate. It is identical to the generic vma_kernel_pagesize() implementation. Now, vma_kernel_pagesize() is growing support for determining the page size of Device-DAX vmas in addition to the existing Hugetlbfs page size determination. Ideally, if the powerpc vma_mmu_pagesize() used vma_kernel_pagesize() it would automatically benefit from any new vma-type support that is added to vma_kernel_pagesize(). However, the powerpc vma_mmu_pagesize() is prevented from calling vma_kernel_pagesize() due to a circular header dependency that requires vma_mmu_pagesize() to be defined before including <linux/hugetlb.h>. Break this circular dependency by defining the default vma_mmu_pagesize() as a __weak symbol to be overridden by the powerpc version.
