It either gets a new reference when adding a page to

it added a page to lru_pvecs.lru_add. So it doesn't call SetPageActive()

mm, fadvise: improve the expensive remote LRU cache draining after FADV_DONTNEED
Our users reported that there're some random latency spikes when their RT
process is running. Finally we found that latency spike is caused by
FADV_DONTNEED. Which may call lru_add_drain_all() to drain LRU cache on
remote CPUs, and then waits the per-cpu work to complete. The wait time
is uncertain, which may be tens millisecond.
That behavior is unreasonable, because this process is bound to a specific
CPU and the file is only accessed by itself, IOW, there should be no
pagecache pages on a per-cpu pagevec of a remote CPU. That unreasonable
behavior is partially caused by the wrong comparation of the number of
invalidated pages and the number of the target. For example,
if (count < (end_index - start_index + 1))
The count above is how many pages were invalidated in the local CPU, and
(end_index - start_index + 1) is how many pages should be invalidated.
The usage of (end_index - start_index + 1) is incorrect, because they are
virtual addresses, which may not mapped to pages. Besides that, there may
be holes between start and end. So we'd better check whether there are
still pages on per-cpu pagevec after drain the local cpu, and then decide
whether or not to call lru_add_drain_all().
After I applied it with a hotfix to our production environment, most of
the lru_add_drain_all() can be avoided.
We dereference page->mapping and page->index directly after calling
find_subpage() and these fields are not valid for tail pages. While
commit 4101196b19d7 ("mm: page cache: store only head pages in i_pages")
introduced the call to find_subpage(), the problem existed prior to this;
I'm going to suggest all the way back to when THPs first existed.
The user-visible effects of this are almost negligible. To hit it, you
have to mmap a tmpfs file at an unaligned address and then it's only a
disabled optimisation causing page faults to happen more frequently than
they otherwise would.
Fix this by keeping both head and page pointers and checking the
appropriate one. We could use page_mapping() and page_to_index(), but
that's higher overhead.
Convert shmem_getpage_gfp() (the only remaining caller of
find_lock_entry()) to cope with a head page being returned instead of
the subpage for the index.
mm: convert find_get_entry to return the head page
There are only four callers remaining of find_get_entry().
get_shadow_from_swap_cache() only wants to see shadow entries and doesn't
care about which page is returned. Push the find_subpage() call into
find_lock_entry(), find_get_incore_page() and pagecache_get_page().
i915: use find_lock_page instead of find_lock_entry
i915 does not want to see value entries. Switch it to use
find_lock_page() instead, and remove the export of find_lock_entry().
Move find_lock_entry() and find_get_entry() to mm/internal.h to discourage
any future use.
Instead of calling find_get_entry() for every page index, use an XArray
iterator to skip over NULL entries, and avoid calling get_page(),
because we only want the swap entries.
The current code does not protect against swapoff of the underlying
swap device, so this is a bug fix as well as a worthwhile reduction in
code complexity.
mm: factor find_get_incore_page out of mincore_page
Patch series "Return head pages from find_*_entry", v2.
This patch series started out as part of the THP patch set, but it has
some nice effects along the way and it seems worth splitting it out and
submitting separately.
Currently find_get_entry() and find_lock_entry() return the page
corresponding to the requested index, but the first thing most callers do
is find the head page, which we just threw away. As part of auditing all
the callers, I found some misuses of the APIs and some plain
inefficiencies that I've fixed.
The diffstat is unflattering, but I added more kernel-doc and a new wrapper.
This patch (of 8);
Provide this functionality from the swap cache. It's useful for
more than just mincore().
__dump_page() checks i_dentry is fetchable and i_ino is earlier in the
struct than i_ino, so it ought to work fine, but it's possible that struct
randomisation has reordered i_ino after i_dentry and the pointer is just
wild enough that i_dentry is fetchable and i_ino isn't.

The device-dax facility allows an address range to be directly mapped
through a chardev, or optionally hotplugged to the core kernel page
allocator as System-RAM. It is the mechanism for converting persistent
memory (pmem) to be used as another volatile memory pool i.e. the current
Memory Tiering hot topic on linux-mm.
In the case of pmem the nvdimm-namespace-label mechanism can sub-divide
it, but that labeling mechanism is not available / applicable to
soft-reserved ("EFI specific purpose") memory [3]. This series provides a
sysfs-mechanism for the daxctl utility to enable provisioning of
volatile-soft-reserved memory ranges.
The motivations for this facility are:
1/ Allow performance differentiated memory ranges to be split between
kernel-managed and directly-accessed use cases.
2/ Allow physical memory to be provisioned along performance relevant
address boundaries. For example, divide a memory-side cache [4] along
cache-color boundaries.
3/ Parcel out soft-reserved memory to VMs using device-dax as a security
/ permissions boundary [5]. Specifically I have seen people (ab)using
memmap=nn!ss (mark System-RAM as Persistent Memory) just to get the
device-dax interface on custom address ranges. A follow-on for the VM
use case is to teach device-dax to dynamically allocate 'struct page' at
runtime to reduce the duplication of 'struct page' space in both the
guest and the host kernel for the same physical pages.

ocfs2: fix potential soft lockup during fstrim
When we discard unused blocks on a mounted ocfs2 filesystem, fstrim
handles each block goup with locking/unlocking global bitmap meta-file
repeatedly. we should let fstrim thread take a break(if need) between
unlock and lock, this will avoid the potential soft lockup problem,
and also gives the upper applications more IO opportunities, these
applications are not blocked for too long at writing files.

kbuild: doc: describe proper script invocation
During an investigation to fix up the execute bits of scripts in the
kernel repository, Andrew Morton and Kees Cook pointed out that the
execute bit should not matter, and that build scripts cannot rely on that.
Kees could not point to any documentation, though.
Masahiro Yamada explained the convention of setting execute bits to make
it easier for manual script invocation.
Provide some basic documentation how the build shall invoke scripts, such
that the execute bits do not matter, and acknowledge that execute bits are
useful nonetheless.
This serves as reference for further clean-up patches in the future.

export.h: fix section name for CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS for Clang
When enabling CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS, the linker will warn about the
orphan sections:

repeatedly when linking vmlinux. This is because the stringification
operator, `#`, in the preprocessor escapes strings. GCC and Clang differ
in how they treat section names that contain \".
The portable solution is to not use a string literal with the preprocessor

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
"The big new thing is the fully lockless ringbuffer implementation,
including the support for continuous lines. It will allow to store and
read messages in any situation wihtout the risk of deadlocks and
without the need of temporary per-CPU buffers.
The access is still serialized by logbuf_lock. It synchronizes few
more operations, for example, temporary buffer for formatting the
message, syslog and kmsg_dump operations. The lock removal is being
discussed and should be ready for the next release.
The continuous lines are handled exactly the same way as before to
avoid regressions in user space. It means that they are appended to
the last message when the caller is the same. Only the last message
can be extended.
The data ring includes plain text of the messages. Except for an
integer at the beginning of each message that points back to the
descriptor ring with other metadata.
The dictionary has to stay. journalctl uses it to filter the log. It
allows to show messages related to a given device. The dictionary
values are stored in the descriptor ring with the other metadata.
This is the first part of the printk rework as discussed at Plumbers
2019, see https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]. The
next big step will be handling consoles by kthreads during the normal
system operation. It will require special handling of situations when
the kthreads could not get scheduled, for example, early boot,
suspend, panic.

"This time very little driver changes but lots of core changes.
We have some interesting cooperative work for ARM and Intel alike,
making the GPIO subsystem more and more suitable for industrial
systems and the like, in addition to the in-kernel users.
We touch driver core (device properties) and lib/* by adding one
simple string array free function, these are authored by Andy
Shevchenko who is a well known and recognized core helpers maintainers
so this should be fine.
We also see some Android GKI-related modularization in the MXC
drivers.
Core changes:
- The big core change is the updated (v2) userspace character device
API.
This corrects badly designed 64-bit alignment around the line
events. We also add the debounce request feature. This echoes the
often quotes passage from Frederick Brooks "The mythical man-month"
to always throw one away, which we have seen before in things such
as V4L2. So we put in a new one and deprecate and obsolete the old
one.
- All example tools in tools/gpio/* are migrated to the new API to
set a good example. The libgpiod userspace library has been
augmented to use this new API pretty much from day 1.
- Some misc API hardening by using strn* function calls has been
added as well.
- Use the simpler IDA interface for GPIO chip instance enumeration.
- Add device core function for counting string arrays in device
properties.
- Provide a generic library function kfree_strarray() that can be
used throughout the kernel.
Driver enhancements:
- The DesignWare dwapb-gpio driver has been enhanced and now uses the
IRQ handling in the gpiolib core.
- The mockup and aggregator drivers have seen some substantial code
clean-up and now use more of the core kernel inftrastructure.
- Misc cleanups using dev_err_probe().
- The MXC drivers (Freescale/NXP) can now be built modularized, which
makes modularized GKI Android kernels happy"

ALSA: hda/hdmi: fix incorrect locking in hdmi_pcm_close
A race exists between closing a PCM and update of ELD data. In
hdmi_pcm_close(), hinfo->nid value is modified without taking
spec->pcm_lock. If this happens concurrently while processing an ELD
update in hdmi_pcm_setup_pin(), converter assignment may be done
incorrectly.
This bug was found by hitting a WARN_ON in snd_hda_spdif_ctls_assign()

"Mostly core updates with a few user visible bits and fixes.
Hilights:
- fsync performance improvements
- less contention of log mutex (throughput +4%, latency -14%,
dbench with 32 clients)
- skip unnecessary commits for link and rename (throughput +6%,
latency -30%, rename latency -75%, dbench with 16 clients)
- make fast fsync wait only for writeback (throughput +10..40%,
runtime -1..-20%, dbench with 1 to 64 clients on various
file/block sizes)
- direct io is now implemented using the iomap infrastructure, that's
the main part, we still have a workaround that requires an iomap
API update, coming in 5.10
- new sysfs exports:
- information about the exclusive filesystem operation status
(balance, device add/remove/replace, ...)
- supported send stream version
Core:
- use ticket space reservations for data, fair policy using the same
infrastructure as metadata
- preparatory work to switch locking from our custom tree locks to
standard rwsem, now the locking context is propagated to all
callers, actual switch is expected to happen in the next dev cycle
- seed device structures are now using list API
- extent tracepoints print proper tree id
- unified range checks for extent buffer helpers
- send: avoid using temporary buffer for copying data
- remove unnecessary RCU protection from space infos
- remove unused readpage callback for metadata, enabling several
cleanups
- replace indirect function calls for end io hooks and remove
extent_io_ops completely
Fixes:
- more lockdep warning fixes
- fix qgroup reservation for delayed inode and an occasional
reservation leak for preallocated files
- fix device replace of a seed device
- fix metadata reservation for fallocate that leads to transaction
aborts
- reschedule if necessary when logging directory items or when
cloning lots of extents
- commit 62cf5391209a ("btrfs: move btrfs_rm_dev_replace_free_srcdev
outside of all locks") is a rebase leftover after the patch got
merged to 5.9-rc8 as a466c85edc6f ("btrfs: move
