arm64: provide pmdp_establish() helper
We need an atomic way to setup pmd page table entry, avoiding races with
CPU setting dirty/accessed bits. This is required to implement
pmdp_invalidate() that doesn't lose these bits.
Patch series "Do not lose dirty bit on THP pages", v4.
Vlastimil noted that pmdp_invalidate() is not atomic and we can lose
dirty and access bits if CPU sets them after pmdp dereference, but
before set_pmd_at().
The bug can lead to data loss, but the race window is tiny and I haven't
seen any reports that suggested that it happens in reality. So I don't
think it worth sending it to stable.
Unfortunately, there's no way to address the issue in a generic way. We
need to fix all architectures that support THP one-by-one.
All architectures that have THP supported have to provide atomic
pmdp_invalidate() that returns previous value.
If generic implementation of pmdp_invalidate() is used, architecture
needs to provide atomic pmdp_estabish().
pmdp_estabish() is not used out-side generic implementation of
pmdp_invalidate() so far, but I think this can change in the future.
This patch (of 12):
This is an implementation of pmdp_establish() that is only suitable for
an architecture that doesn't have hardware dirty/accessed bits. In this
case we can't race with CPU which sets these bits and non-atomic
approach is fine.

Several users of unmap_mapping_range() would prefer to express their

mm, userfaultfd, THP: avoid waiting when PMD under THP migration

entry which is !pmd_none() && !pmd_present(). In the current

unnecessary waiting, and potential soft lockup.
This is fixed via avoiding to wait when !pmd_none() && !pmd_present(),
only wait when pmd_none().
This may be not a problem in practice, because userfaultfd_must_wait()

To solve the issue, this patch simply bails out slab shrinking if it is

is it could cause unfair shrinking between shrinkers. However, it
should be rare and we can add compilcated logic if we find it's not

mm: memcontrol: fix excessive complexity in memory.stat reporting
We've seen memory.stat reads in top-level cgroups take up to fourteen
seconds during a userspace bug that created tens of thousands of ghost
cgroups pinned by lingering page cache.
Even with a more reasonable number of cgroups, aggregating memory.stat
is unnecessarily heavy. The complexity is this:
nr_cgroups * nr_stat_items * nr_possible_cpus
where the stat items are ~70 at this point. With 128 cgroups and 128
CPUs - decent, not enormous setups - reading the top-level memory.stat
has to aggregate over a million per-cpu counters. This doesn't scale.
Instead of spreading the source of truth across all CPUs, use the
per-cpu counters merely to batch updates to shared atomic counters.
This is the same as the per-cpu stocks we use for charging memory to the
shared atomic page_counters, and also the way the global vmstat counters
are implemented.
Vmstat has elaborate spilling thresholds that depend on the number of
CPUs, amount of memory, and memory pressure - carefully balancing the
cost of counter updates with the amount of per-cpu error. That's
because the vmstat counters are system-wide, but also used for decisions
inside the kernel (e.g. NR_FREE_PAGES in the allocator). Neither is
true for the memory controller.
Use the same static batch size we already use for page_counter updates
during charging. The per-cpu error in the stats will be 128k, which is
an acceptable ratio of cores to memory accounting granularity.

There is still, however, a corner case where it is potentially possible

next memblock range.
This patch fixes this problem by splitting deferred_init_range() into
two functions: one to initialize struct pages, and another to free them.
In addition, this patch brings the following improvements:
- Get rid of __def_free() helper function. And simplifies loop logic by
adding a new pfn validity check function: deferred_pfn_valid().
- Reduces number of variables that we track. So, there is a higher

- Enables future multi-threading of these functions: do initialization
in multiple threads, wait for all threads to finish, do freeing part
in multithreading.

mm: use sc->priority for slab shrink targets
Previously we were using the ratio of the number of lru pages scanned to
the number of eligible lru pages to determine the number of slab objects
to scan. The problem with this is that these two things have nothing to
do with each other, so in slab heavy work loads where there is little to
no page cache we can end up with the pages scanned being a very low
number. This means that we reclaim next to no slab pages and waste a
lot of time reclaiming small amounts of space.
Consider the following scenario, where we have the following values and
the rest of the memory usage is in slab
Active: 58840 kB
Inactive: 46860 kB
Every time we do a get_scan_count() we do this
scan = size >> sc->priority
where sc->priority starts at DEF_PRIORITY, which is 12. The first loop
through reclaim would result in a scan target of 2 pages to 11715 total
inactive pages, and 3 pages to 14710 total active pages. This is a
really really small target for a system that is entirely slab pages.
And this is super optimistic, this assumes we even get to scan these
pages. We don't increment sc->nr_scanned unless we 1) isolate the page,
which assumes it's not in use, and 2) can lock the page. Under pressure
these numbers could probably go down, I'm sure there's some random pages
from daemons that aren't actually in use, so the targets get even
smaller.
Instead use sc->priority in the same way we use it to determine scan
amounts for the lru's. This generally equates to pages. Consider the
following
but we don't know the number of slab pages each shrinker controls, only
the objects. However say that theoretically we knew how many pages a
shrinker controlled, we'd still have to convert this to objects, which
would look like the following
We don't need to know exactly how many pages each shrinker represents,
it's objects are all the information we need. Making this change allows
us to place an appropriate amount of pressure on the shrinker pools for
their relative size.

This patch adds a check in zswap_frontswap_store() to identify
same-filled page before compression of the page. If the page is a
same-filled page, set zswap_entry.length to zero, save the same-filled
value and skip the compression of the page and alloction of memory in
zpool. In zswap_frontswap_load(), check if value of zswap_entry.length
is zero corresponding to the page to be loaded. If zswap_entry.length
is zero, fill the page with same-filled value. This saves the
decompression time during load.
On a ARM Quad Core 32-bit device with 1.5GB RAM by launching and
relaunching different applications, out of ~64000 pages stored in zswap,
~11000 pages were same-value filled pages (including zero-filled pages)

An average of 17% of pages(including zero-filled pages) in zswap are
same-value filled pages and 14% pages are zero-filled pages. An average
of 3% of pages are same-filled non-zero pages.

will trigger multiple nodes trimming a shared disk simultaneously, which
is very wasteful for CPU and IO consumption. This also might negatively
affect the lifetime of poor-quality SSD devices.
So we introduce a trimfs dlm lock to communicate with each other in this
case, which will make only one fstrim command to do the trimming on a
shared disk among the cluster. The fstrim commands from the other nodes
should wait for the first fstrim to finish and return success directly,
to avoid running the same trim on the shared disk again.
The BUG code told that extent tree wants to grow but no metadata was
reserved ahead of time. From my investigation into this issue, the root
cause it that although enough metadata is not reserved, there should be
enough for following use. Rightmost extent is merged into its left one
due to a certain times of marking extent written. Because during
marking extent written, we got many physically continuous extents. At
last, an empty extent showed up and the rightmost path is removed from
extent tree.
Add a new mechanism to reuse extent block cached in dealloc which were

directly here, since this will lead to a softlockup problem when the
kernel is configured with CONFIG_PREEMPT is not set. The method is to
get a blocking lock and immediately unlock before returning, this can
avoid CPU resource waste due to lots of retries, and benefits fairness
in getting lock among multiple nodes, increase efficiency in case
modifying the same file frequently from multiple nodes.
The softlockup crash (when set /proc/sys/kernel/softlockup_panic to 1)
looks like:
About performance improvement, we can see the testing time is reduced,
and CPU utilization decreases, the detailed data is as follows. I ran
multi_mmap test case in ocfs2-test package in a three nodes cluster.

In this situation we need return -EROFS to 'mount.ocfs2', so that user

should be updated correspondingly as it only return 1 for all errno.
And I will post a patch for 'mount.ocfs2' too.

ocfs2/cluster: close a race that fence can't be triggered
When some nodes of cluster face with TCP connection fault, ocfs2 will
pick up a quorum to continue to work and other nodes will be fenced by
resetting host.
In order to decide which node should be fenced, ocfs2 leverages
o2quo_state::qs_holds. If that variable is reduced to zero, then a try
to decide if fence local node is performed. However, under a specific
scenario that local node is not disconnected from others at the same
time, above method has a problem to reduce ::qs_holds to zero.
Because, o2net 90s idle timer corresponding to different nodes is
triggered one after another.
node 2 node 3
90s idle timer elapses
clear ::qs_conn_bm
set hold
40s is passed
90 idle timer elapses
clear ::qs_conn_bm
set hold
still up timer elapses
clear hold (NOT to zero )
90s idle timer elapses AGAIN
still up timer elapses.
clear hold
still up timer elapses
To solve this issue, a node which has already be evicted from
::qs_conn_bm can't set hold again and again invoked from idle timer.

ocfs2: give an obvious tip for mismatched cluster names
Add an obvious error message, due to mismatched cluster names between
on-disk and in the current cluster. We can meet this case during OCFS2
cluster migration.
If we can give the user an obvious tip for why they can not mount the
file system after migration, they can quickly fix this mismatch problem.
Second, also move printing ocfs2_fill_super() errno to the front of
ocfs2_dismount_volume(), since ocfs2_dismount_volume() will also print
its own message.
I looked through all the code of OCFS2 (include o2cb); there is not any
place which returns this error. In fact, the function calling path
ocfs2_fill_super -> ocfs2_mount_volume -> ocfs2_dlm_init ->
dlm_new_lockspace is a very specific one. We can use this errno to give
the user a more clear tip, since this case is a little common during
cluster migration, but the customer can quickly get the failure cause if
there is a error printed. Also, I think it is not possible to add this
errno in the o2cb path during ocfs2_dlm_init(), since the o2cb code has
been stable for a long time.
We only print this error tip when the user uses pcmk stack, since using
the o2cb stack the user will not meet this error.

scripts/decodecode: make it take multiline Code line
In case of running scripts/decodecode without any parameters in order to
give a copy'n'pasted Code line from, for example, email it would parse
only first line of it, while in emails it's split to few.
ie, when you have a file out of oops the Code line looks like
Code: hh hh ... <hh> ... hh\n
When copy'n'paste from, for example, email where sender or some middle
MTA split it, the line looks like:
The Code line followed by another oops line usually contains characters
out of hex digit + space + < + > set.
So add logic to join this split back if and only if the following lines
have hex digits, or spaces, or '<', or '>' characters. It will be quite
unlikely to have a broken input in well formed Oops or dmesg, thus a
simple regex is being used.

Input: goodix - use generic touchscreen_properties
Use touchscreen_properties structure instead of implementing all
properties by our own. It allows us to reuse generic code for parsing
device-tree properties (which was implemented manually in the driver for
now). Additionally, it allows us to report events using generic
touchscreen_report_pos(), which automatically handles inverted and
swapped axes.
This fixes the issue with the custom code incorrectly handling case where
ts->inverted_x and ts->swapped_x_y were true, but ts->inverted_y was
false. Assuming we have 720x1280 touch panel, ts->abs_x_max == 1279 and
ts->abs_y_max == 719 (because we inverted that in goodix_read_config()).
Now let's assume that we received event from (0:0) position (in touch
panel original coordinates). In function goodix_ts_report_touch() we
calculate input_x as 1279, but after swapping input_y takes that value
(which is more that maximum 719 value reported during initialization).
Note that since touchscreen coordinates are 0-indexed, we now report
touchscreen range as (0:size-1).
Developed and tested on custom DT-based device with gt1151 touch
panel.

"This contains a mixture of bug fixes, code cleanup, and new
functionality. Of note is the integrity cache locking fix, file change
detection, and support for a new EVM portable and immutable signature
type.
The re-introduction of the integrity cache lock (iint) fixes the
problem of attempting to take the i_rwsem shared a second time, when
it was previously taken exclusively. Defining atomic flags resolves
the original iint/i_rwsem circular locking - accessing the file data
vs. modifying the file metadata. Although it fixes the O_DIRECT
problem as well, a subsequent patch is needed to remove the explicit
O_DIRECT prevention.
For performance reasons, detecting when a file has changed and needs
to be re-measured, re-appraised, and/or re-audited, was limited to
after the last writer has closed, and only if the file data has
changed. Detecting file change is based on i_version. For filesystems
that do not support i_version, remote filesystems, or userspace
filesystems, the file was measured, appraised and/or audited once and
never re-evaluated. Now local filesystems, which do not support
i_version or are not mounted with the i_version option, assume the
file has changed and are required to re-evaluate the file. This change
does not address detecting file change on remote or userspace
filesystems.
Unlike file data signatures, which can be included and distributed in
software packages (eg. rpm, deb), the existing EVM signature, which
protects the file metadata, could not be included in software
packages, as it includes file system specific information (eg. i_ino,
possibly the UUID). This pull request defines a new EVM portable and
immutable file metadata signature format, which can be included in
software packages"

"The is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.16 kernel cycle. It is
pretty calm this time around I think. I even got time to get to things
like starting to clean up header includes.
Core changes:
- Disallow open drain and open source flags to be set simultaneously.
This doesn't make electrical sense, and would the hardware actually
respond to this setting, the result would be short circuit.
- ACPI GPIO has a new core infrastructure for handling quirks. The
quirks are there to deal with broken ACPI tables centrally instead
of pushing the work to individual drivers. In the world of BIOS
writers, the ACPI tables are perfect. Until they find a mistake in
it. When such a mistake is found, we can patch it with a quirk. It
should never happen, the problem is that it happens. So we
accomodate for it.
- Several documentation updates.
- Revert the patch setting up initial direction state from reading
the device. This was causing bad things for drivers that can't read
status on all its pins. It is only affecting debugfs information
quality.
- Label descriptors with the device name if no explicit label is
passed in.
- Pave the ground for transitioning SPI and regulators to use GPIO
descriptors by implementing some quirks in the device tree GPIO
parsing code.
New drivers:
- New driver for the Access PCIe IDIO 24 family.
Other:
- Major refactorings and improvements to the GPIO mockup driver used
for test and verification.
- Moved the AXP209 driver over to pin control since it gained a pin
control back-end. These patches will appear (with the same hashes)
in the pin control pull request as well.
- Convert the onewire GPIO driver w1-gpio to use descriptors. This is
merged here since the W1 maintainers send very few pull requests
and he ACKed it.
- Start to clean up driver headers using <linux/gpio.h> to just use
<linux/gpio/driver.h> as appropriate"

Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
"This merge cycle, we're again some substantive changes to XFS.
Metadata verifiers have been restructured to provide more detail about
which part of a metadata structure failed checks, and we've enhanced
the new online fsck feature to cross-reference extent allocation
information with the other metadata structures. With this pull, the
metadata verification part of online fsck is more or less finished,
though the feature is still experimental and still disabled by
default.
We're also preparing to remove the EXPERIMENTAL tag from a couple of
features this cycle. This week we're committing a bunch of space
accounting fixes for reflink and removing the EXPERIMENTAL tag from
reflink; I anticipate that we'll be ready to do the same for the
reverse mapping feature next week. (I don't have any pending fixes for
rmap; however I wish to remove the tags one at a time.)
This giant pile of patches has been run through a full xfstests run
over the weekend and through a quick xfstests run against this
morning's master, with no major failures reported. Let me know if
there's any merge problems -- git merge reported that one of our
patches touched the same function as the i_version series, but it
resolved things cleanly.
Summary:
- Log faulting code locations when verifiers fail, for improved
diagnosis of corrupt filesystems.
- Implement metadata verifiers for local format inode fork data.
- Online scrub now cross-references metadata records with other
metadata.
- Refactor the fs geometry ioctl generation functions.
- Harden various metadata verifiers.
- Fix various accounting problems.
- Fix uncancelled transactions leaking when xattr functions fail.
- Prevent the copy-on-write speculative preallocation garbage
collector from racing with writeback.
- Emit log reservation type information as trace data so that we can
compare against xfsprogs.
- Fix some erroneous asserts in the online scrub code.
- Clean up the transaction reservation calculations.
- Fix various minor bugs in online scrub.
- Log complaints about mixed dio/buffered writes once per day and
less noisily than before.
- Refactor buffer log item lists to use list_head.
- Break PNFS leases before reflinking blocks.
- Reduce lock contention on reflink source files.
- Fix some quota accounting problems with reflink.
- Fix a serious corruption problem in the direct cow write code where
we fed bad iomaps to the vfs iomap consumers.

"We've got 30 patches for this merge window. These generally fall into

- code cleanups
- patches related to adding PUNCH_HOLE support to GFS2
- support for new fields in resource group headers
- a few bug fixes
- support for new fields in journal log headers. These new fields,
which were previously unused, are designed to make it easier to
track down file system corruption, and allow fsck.gfs2 to make more
intelligent decisions when finding and fixing file system
corruption.
Details:
- Two patches from Abhi Das, to trim the ordered writes list, which
used to grow uncontrollably until unmount.

parameter from function gfs2_write_jdata_pagevec, remove a
pointless BUG_ON, clean up an error patch in trunc_start, remove
some unused parameters from truncate, make gfs2_journaled_truncate

metadata read-ahead for truncate to make it faster, fix up the
non-recursive truncate code, rework and rename
gfs2_block_truncate_page, generalize the non-recursive truncate
code so it can take a range of values for punch_hole support,
introduce new PUNCH_HOLE support that take advantage of the
previous patches, add fallocate support with PUNCH_HOLE, fix some
typos in the comments, add the function gfs2_max_stuffed_size to
replace a piece of code that was needlessly repeated throughout
GFS2, a minor cleanup to function gfs2_page_add_databufs, get rid
of function gfs2_log_header_in in preparation for the new log
header fields, and also fix up some missing newlines in kernel
messages.
- Andy Price added a new field to resource groups to indicate where
the next one should be, to allow fsck.gfs2 to make better repairs.
He also added new rindex fields for consistency checking, and added
a crc field to resource group headers for consistency checking.
- I reduced redundancy in functions common to freeing dinodes, and
when writing log headers between the journalling code and journal
recovery code. Also added new fields to journal log headers based
on a prototype from Steve Whitehouse, and log the source of journal
log headers so we can better track down journal corruption. Minor
comment typo fix and a fix for a BUG in an unlink error path.

iversion: make inode_cmp_iversion{+raw} return bool instead of s64
As Linus points out:
The inode_cmp_iversion{+raw}() functions are pure and utter crap.
Why?
You say that they return 0/negative/positive, but they do so in a
completely broken manner. They return that ternary value as the
sequence number difference in a 's64', which means that if you
actually care about that ternary value, and do the *sane* thing that
the kernel-doc of the function implies is the right thing, you would
do
int cmp = inode_cmp_iversion(inode, old);
if (cmp < 0 ...
and as a result you get code that looks sane, but that doesn't
actually *WORK* right.
Since none of the callers actually care about the ternary value here,
convert the inode_cmp_iversion{+raw} functions to just return a boolean
value (false for matching, true for non-matching).
This matches the existing use of these functions just fine, and makes it
simple to convert them to return a ternary value in the future if we
grow callers that need it.
With this change we can also reimplement inode_cmp_iversion in a simpler
way using inode_peek_iversion.

tls: Add support for encryption using async offload accelerator
Async crypto accelerators (e.g. drivers/crypto/caam) support offloading
GCM operation. If they are enabled, crypto_aead_encrypt() return error
code -EINPROGRESS. In this case tls_do_encryption() needs to wait on a
completion till the time the response for crypto offload request is
received.
When we dump the ip6mr mfc entries via proc, we initialize an iterator
with the table to dump but we don't clear the cache pointer which might
be initialized from a prior read on the same descriptor that ended. This
can result in lock imbalance (an unnecessary unlock) leading to other
crashes and hangs. Clear the cache pointer like ipmr does to fix the issue.

The current cast to u64 effectively applies to the whole expression

not prevent it from being evaluated using 32-bit arithmetic instead

there is no need for the parentheses and the external cast to u64.

- Backwards Compatibility:
If userspace wants to determine whether RTM_NEWLINK supports the
IFLA_IF_NETNSID property they should first send an RTM_GETLINK request
with IFLA_IF_NETNSID on lo. If either EACCESS is returned or the reply
does not include IFLA_IF_NETNSID userspace should assume that
IFLA_IF_NETNSID is not supported on this kernel.
If the reply does contain an IFLA_IF_NETNSID property userspace
can send an RTM_NEWLINK with a IFLA_IF_NETNSID property. If they receive
EOPNOTSUPP then the kernel does not support the IFLA_IF_NETNSID property
with RTM_NEWLINK. Userpace should then fallback to other means.
