mm, compaction: skip blocks where isolation fails in async direct compaction
The goal of direct compaction is to quickly make a high-order page
available for the pending allocation. Within an aligned block of pages
of desired order, a single allocated page that cannot be isolated for
migration means that the block cannot fully merge to a buddy page that
would satisfy the allocation request. Therefore we can reduce the
allocation stall by skipping the rest of the block immediately on
isolation failure. For async compaction, this also means a higher
chance of succeeding until it detects contention.
We however shouldn't completely sacrifice the second objective of
compaction, which is to reduce overal long-term memory fragmentation.
As a compromise, perform the eager skipping only in direct async
compaction, while sync compaction (including kcompactd) remains
thorough.

mm, compaction: reduce spurious pcplist drains
Compaction drains the local pcplists each time migration scanner moves
away from a cc->order aligned block where it isolated pages for
migration, so that the pages freed by migrations can merge into higher
orders.
The detection is currently coarser than it could be. The
cc->last_migrated_pfn variable should track the lowest pfn that was
isolated for migration. But it is set to the pfn where
isolate_migratepages_block() starts scanning, which is typically the
first pfn of the pageblock. There, the scanner might fail to isolate
several order-aligned blocks, and then isolate COMPACT_CLUSTER_MAX in
another block. This would cause the pcplists drain to be performed,
although the scanner didn't yet finish the block where it isolated from.
This patch thus makes cc->last_migrated_pfn handling more accurate by
setting it to the pfn of an actually isolated page in
isolate_migratepages_block(). Although practical effects of this patch
are likely low, it arguably makes the intent of the code more obvious.
Also the next patch will make async direct compaction skip blocks more
aggressively, and draining pcplists due to skipped blocks is wasteful.

mm/hugetlb: introduce hugetlb_bad_size()
When any unsupported hugepage size is specified, 'hugepagesz=' and
'hugepages=' should be ignored during command line parsing until any
supported hugepage size is found. But currently incorrect number of
hugepages are allocated when unsupported size is specified as it fails
to ignore the 'hugepages=' command.
Test case:
Note that this is specific to x86 architecture.
Boot the kernel with command line option 'hugepagesz=256M hugepages=X'.
After boot, dmesg output shows that X number of hugepages of the size 2M
is pre-allocated instead of 0.
So, to handle such command line options, introduce new routine
hugetlb_bad_size. The routine hugetlb_bad_size sets the global variable
parsed_valid_hugepagesz. We are using parsed_valid_hugepagesz to save
the state when unsupported hugepagesize is found so that we can ignore
the 'hugepages=' parameters after that and then reset the variable when
supported hugepage size is found.
The routine hugetlb_bad_size can be called while setting 'hugepagesz='
parameter in an architecture specific code.
It was observed that minimum size accounting associated with the
hugetlbfs min_size mount option may not perform optimally and as
expected. As huge pages/reservations are released from the filesystem
and given back to the global pools, they are reserved for subsequent
filesystem use as long as the subpool reserved count is less than
subpool minimum size. It does not take into account used pages within
the filesystem. The filesystem size limits are not exceeded and this is
technically not a bug. However, better behavior would be to wait for
the number of used pages/reservations associated with the filesystem to
drop below the minimum size before taking reservations to satisfy
minimum size.
An optimization is also made to the hugepage_subpool_get_pages() routine
which is called when pages/reservations are allocated. This does not
change behavior, but simply avoids the accounting if all reservations
have already been taken (subpool reserved count == 0).

gcc as far back as at least 3.04 documents the function attribute
__malloc__. Add a shorthand for attaching that to a function
declaration. This was also suggested by Andi Kleen way back in 2002
[1], but didn't get applied, perhaps because gcc at that time generated
the exact same code with and without this attribute.
This attribute tells the compiler that the return value (if non-NULL)
can be assumed not to alias any other valid pointers at the time of the
call.
Please note that the documentation for a range of gcc versions (starting
from around 4.7) contained a somewhat confusing and self-contradicting
text:
The malloc attribute is used to tell the compiler that a function may
be treated as if any non-NULL pointer it returns cannot alias any other
pointer valid when the function returns and *that the memory has
undefined content*. [...] Standard functions with this property include
malloc and *calloc*.
(emphasis mine). The intended meaning has later been clarified [2]:
This tells the compiler that a function is malloc-like, i.e., that the
pointer P returned by the function cannot alias any other pointer valid
when the function returns, and moreover no pointers to valid objects
occur in any storage addressed by P.
What this means is that we can apply the attribute to kmalloc and
friends, and it is ok for the returned memory to have well-defined
contents (__GFP_ZERO). But it is not ok to apply it to kmemdup(), nor
to other functions which both allocate and possibly initialize the
memory with existing pointers. So unless someone is doing something
pretty perverted kstrdup() should also be a fine candidate.

mm: SLAB freelist randomization
Provides an optional config (CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_RANDOM) to randomize
the SLAB freelist. The list is randomized during initialization of a
new set of pages. The order on different freelist sizes is pre-computed
at boot for performance. Each kmem_cache has its own randomized
freelist. Before pre-computed lists are available freelists are
generated dynamically. This security feature reduces the predictability
of the kernel SLAB allocator against heap overflows rendering attacks
much less stable.
For example this attack against SLUB (also applicable against SLAB)
would be affected:
Also, since v4.6 the freelist was moved at the end of the SLAB. It
means a controllable heap is opened to new attacks not yet publicly
discussed. A kernel heap overflow can be transformed to multiple
use-after-free. This feature makes this type of attack harder too.
To generate entropy, we use get_random_bytes_arch because 0 bits of
entropy is available in the boot stage. In the worse case this function
will fallback to the get_random_bytes sub API. We also generate a shift
random number to shift pre-computed freelist for each new set of pages.
The config option name is not specific to the SLAB as this approach will
be extended to other allocators like SLUB.

synchronize kmem_cache->cpu_partial update with put_cpu_partial that
might be running on other cpus. Currently, we achieve that by using
kick_all_cpus_sync, which works as a system wide memory barrier. Though
fast it is, this method has a flaw - it issues a lot of IPIs, which
might hurt high performance or real-time workloads.
To fix this, let's replace kick_all_cpus_sync with synchronize_sched.
Although the latter one may take much longer to finish, it shouldn't be
a problem in this particular case, because memory cgroups are destroyed
asynchronously from a workqueue so that no user visible effects should
be introduced. OTOH, it will save us from excessive IPIs when someone
removes a cgroup.
Anyway, even if using synchronize_sched turns out to take too long, we
can always introduce a kind of __kmem_cache_shrink batching so that this
method would only be called once per one cgroup destruction (not per
each per memcg kmem cache as it is now).

changes are lockless decision to allocate more slab and lockless cpu
cache refill from the newly allocated slab.
Below is the result of concurrent allocation/free in slab allocation
benchmark made by Christoph a long time ago. I make the output simpler.
The number shows cycle count during alloc/free respectively so less is
better.
It shows that performance improves greatly (roughly more than 50%) for
the object class whose size is more than 128 bytes.
This patch (of 11):
If we don't hold neither the slab_mutex nor the node lock, node's shared
array cache could be freed and re-populated. If __kmem_cache_shrink()
is called at the same time, it will call drain_array() with n->shared
without holding node lock so problem can happen. This patch fix the
situation by holding the node lock before trying to drain the shared
array.
In addition, add a debug check to confirm that n->shared access race
doesn't exist.

kernel/padata.c: hide unused functions
A recent cleanup removed some exported functions that were not used
anywhere, which in turn exposed the fact that some other functions in
the same file are only used in some configurations.
We now get a warning about them when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is disabled:
kernel/padata.c:670:12: error: '__padata_remove_cpu' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]

functions are within the #ifdef that protects the code that calls them.

kernel/padata.c: removed unused code
By accident I stumbled across code that has never been used. This
driver has EXPORT_SYMBOL functions, and the only user of the code is
pcrypt.c, but this only uses a subset of the exported symbols.
According to 'git log -G', the functions, padata_set_cpumasks,
padata_add_cpu, and padata_remove_cpu have never been used since they
were first introduced. This patch removes the unused code.
On one 64 bit build, with CRYPTO_PCRYPT built in, the text is more than
4k smaller.

debugobjects: insulate non-fixup logic related to static obj from fixup callbacks
When activating a static object we need make sure that the object is
tracked in the object tracker. If it is a non-static object then the
activation is illegal.
In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in
their fixup callbacks. Actually we can put it into debugobjects core.
Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks.
To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let
the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not. If
yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke
fixup callback.
This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test
with all debugobjects supports enabled.
At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object
which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point
to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked. Then Change
such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected
behaviour. For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function
stub_timer.

debugobjects: make fixup functions return bool instead of int
I am going to introduce debugobjects infrastructure to USB subsystem.
But before this, I found the code of debugobjects could be improved.
This patchset will make fixup functions return bool type instead of int.
Because fixup only need report success or no. boolean is the 'real'
type.
This patch (of 7):
The object debugging infrastructure core provides some fixup callbacks
for the subsystem who use it. These callbacks are called from the debug
code whenever a problem in debug_object_init is detected. And
debugobjects core suppose them returns 1 when the fixup was successful,
otherwise 0. So the return type is boolean.
A bad thing is that debug_object_fixup use the return value for
arithmetic operation. It confused me that what is the reall return
type.
Reading over the whole code, I found some place do use the return value
incorrectly(see next patch). So why use bool type instead?

fs: poll/select/recvmmsg: use timespec64 for timeout events
struct timespec is not y2038 safe. Even though timespec might be
sufficient to represent timeouts, use struct timespec64 here as the plan
is to get rid of all timespec reference in the kernel.
The patch transitions the common functions: poll_select_set_timeout()
and select_estimate_accuracy() to use timespec64. And, all the syscalls
that use these functions are transitioned in the same patch.
The restart block parameters for poll uses monotonic time. Use
timespec64 here as well to assign timeout value. This parameter in the
restart block need not change because this only holds the monotonic
timestamp at which timeout should occur. And, unsigned long data type
should be big enough for this timestamp.
The system call interfaces will be handled in a separate series.
Compat interfaces need not change as timespec64 is an alias to struct
timespec on a 64 bit system.

fsnotify: avoid spurious EMFILE errors from inotify_init()
Inotify instance is destroyed when all references to it are dropped.
That not only means that the corresponding file descriptor needs to be
closed but also that all corresponding instance marks are freed (as each
mark holds a reference to the inotify instance). However marks are
freed only after SRCU period ends which can take some time and thus if
user rapidly creates and frees inotify instances, number of existing
inotify instances can exceed max_user_instances limit although from user
point of view there is always at most one existing instance. Thus
inotify_init() returns EMFILE error which is hard to justify from user
point of view. This problem is exposed by LTP inotify06 testcase on
some machines.
We fix the problem by making sure all group marks are properly freed
while destroying inotify instance. We wait for SRCU period to end in
that path anyway since we have to make sure there is no event being
added to the instance while we are tearing down the instance. So it
takes only some plumbing to allow for marks to be destroyed in that path
as well and not from a dedicated work item.

- Rockchip RK3399 follows the 32-bit RK3288 that is popular in
low-end Chromebooks and the 64-bit RK3368 that is mainly found in
chinese Android TV boxes.
The 96Boards HiKey based on the Hisilicon Hi6220 (Kirin 620) gets a
long-awaited overhaul with a lot of devices enabled in the DT, so it
should be much more usable with a mainline kernel now. See also

Pull ARM DT updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"These are all the updates to device tree files for 32-bit platforms,
which as usual makes up the bulk of the ARM SoC changes: 462 non-merge
changesets, 450 files changed, 23340 insertions, 5216 deletions.
The three platforms that are added with the "soc" branch are here as
well, and we add some related machine files:
- For Aspeed AST2400/AST2500, we get the evaluation platform and the
Tyan Palmetto POWER8 mainboard that uses the AST2400 BMC
- For Oxnas 810SE, the Western Digital "My Book World Edition" is
added as the only platform at the moment.
- For ARM MPS2, the AN385 (Cortex-M3) and AN399 (Cortex-M7) are
supported
On the ARM Realview development platform, we now support all machines
with device tree, previously only the board files were supported,
which in turn will likely be removed soon.
Qualcomm IPQ4019 is the second generation ARM based "Internet
Processor", following the IPQ806x that is used in many high-end WiFi
routers. This one integrates two ath10k wifi radios that were
previously on separate chips.
