      Unused iocbs in a batch should not be accounted as active. · 69e4747e
      Gleb Natapov authored
      Since commit 080d676d
      
       ("aio: allocate kiocbs in batches") iocbs are
      allocated in a batch during processing of first iocbs.  All iocbs in a
      batch are automatically added to ctx->active_reqs list and accounted in
      ctx->reqs_active.
      
      If one (not the last one) of iocbs submitted by an user fails, further
      iocbs are not processed, but they are still present in ctx->active_reqs
      and accounted in ctx->reqs_active.  This causes process to stuck in a D
      state in wait_for_all_aios() on exit since ctx->reqs_active will never
      go down to zero.  Furthermore since kiocb_batch_free() frees iocb
      without removing it from active_reqs list the list become corrupted
      which may cause oops.
      
      Fix this by removing iocb from ctx->active_reqs and updating
      ctx->reqs_active in kiocb_batch_free().

      x86/mce: Fix CPU hotplug and suspend regression related to MCE · a3301b75
      Srivatsa S. Bhat authored
      Commit 8a25a2fd
      
       ("cpu: convert 'cpu' and 'machinecheck' sysdev_class
      to a regular subsystem") changed how things are dealt with in the MCE
      subsystem.  Some of the things that got broken due to this are CPU
      hotplug and suspend/hibernate.
      
      MCE uses per_cpu allocations of struct device.  So, when a CPU goes
      offline and comes back online, in order to ensure that we start from a
      clean slate with respect to the MCE subsystem, zero out the entire
      per_cpu device structure to 0 before using it.

      UBIFS: fix key printing · 515315a1
      Artem Bityutskiy authored
      Before commit 56e46742
      
       we have had locking
      around all printing macros and we could use static buffers for creating
      key strings and printing them. However, now we do not have that locking and
      we cannot use static buffers. This commit removes the old DBGKEY() macros
      and introduces few new helper macros for printing debugging messages plus
      a key at the end. Thankfully, all the messages are already structures in
      a way that the key is printed in the end.

      Newer nVidia cards with Optimus do not support/use the DSM switching functions.
      Instead, it require a DSM function to be called prior to bringing a device into
      D3 state. No other _DSM calls are necessary before/after enabling/disabling a
      device. Switching between discrete and integrated GPU is not supported by
      this Optimus _DSM call, therefore return on the switching method.

      Merge branch 'akpm' (aka "Andrew's patch-bomb, take two") · 09946950
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Andrew explains:
      
       - various misc stuff
      
       - Most of the rest of MM: memcg, threaded hugepages, others.
      
       - cpumask
      
       - kexec
      
       - kdump
      
       - some direct-io performance tweaking
      
       - radix-tree optimisations
      
       - new selftests code
      
         A note on this: often people will develop a new userspace-visible
         feature and will develop userspace code to exercise/test that
         feature.  Then they merge the patch and the selftest code dies.
         Sometimes we paste it into the changelog.  Sometimes the code gets
         thrown into Documentation/(!).
      
         This saddens me.  So this patch creates a bare-bones framework which
         will henceforth allow me to ask people to include their test apps in
         the kernel tree so we can keep them alive.  Then when people enhance
         or fix the feature, I can ask them to update the test app too.
      
         The infrastruture is terribly trivial at present - let's see how it
         evolves.
      
       - checkpoint/restart feature work.
      
         A note on this: this is a project by various mad Russians to perform
         c/r mainly from userspace, with various oddball helper code added
         into the kernel where the need is demonstrated.
      
         So rather than some large central lump of code, what we have is
         little bits and pieces popping up in various places which either
         expose something new or which permit something which is normally
         kernel-private to be modified.
      
         The overall project is an ongoing thing.  I've judged that the size
         and scope of the thing means that we're more likely to be successful
         with it if we integrate the support into mainline piecemeal rather
         than allowing it all to develop out-of-tree.
      
         However I'm less confident than the developers that it will all
         eventually work! So what I'm asking them to do is to wrap each piece
         of new code inside CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE.  So if it all
         eventually comes to tears and the project as a whole fails, it should
         be a simple matter to go through and delete all trace of it.
      
      This lot pretty much wraps up the -rc1 merge for me.

      c/r: prctl: add PR_SET_MM codes to set up mm_struct entries · 028ee4be
      Cyrill Gorcunov authored
      
      
      When we restore a task we need to set up text, data and data heap sizes
      from userspace to the values a task had at checkpoint time.  This patch
      adds auxilary prctl codes for that.
      
      While most of them have a statistical nature (their values are involved
      into calculation of /proc/<pid>/statm output) the start_brk and brk values
      are used to compute an allowed size of program data segment expansion.
      Which means an arbitrary changes of this values might be dangerous
      operation.  So to restrict access the following requirements applied to
      prctl calls:
      
       - The process has to have CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability granted.
       - For all opcodes except start_brk/brk members an appropriate
         VMA area must exist and should fit certain VMA flags,
         such as:
         - code segment must be executable but not writable;
         - data segment must not be executable.
      
      start_brk/brk values must not intersect with data segment and must not
      exceed RLIMIT_DATA resource limit.
      
      Still the main guard is CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability check.
      
      Note the kernel should be compiled with CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE support
      otherwise these prctl calls will return -EINVAL.

      Cyrill Gorcunov authored
      
      
      The mm->start_code/end_code, mm->start_data/end_data, mm->start_brk are
      involved into calculation of program text/data segment sizes (which might
      be seen in /proc/<pid>/statm) and into brk() call final address.
      
      For restore we need to know all these values.  While
      mm->start_code/end_code already present in /proc/$pid/stat, the rest
      members are not, so this patch brings them in.
      
      The restore procedure of these members is addressed in another patch using
      prctl().

      Bring a new kernel selftests directory in tools/testing/selftests.  To
      add a new selftest, create a subdirectory with the sources and a
      makefile that creates a target named "run_test" then add the
      subdirectory name to the TARGET var in tools/testing/selftests/Makefile
      and tools/testing/selftests/run_tests script.
      
      This can help centralizing and maintaining any useful selftest that
      developers usually tend to let rust in peace on some random server.

      radix_tree: take radix_tree_path off stack · e2bdb933
      Hugh Dickins authored
      
      
      Down, down in the deepest depths of GFP_NOIO page reclaim, we have
      shrink_page_list() calling __remove_mapping() calling __delete_from_
      swap_cache() or __delete_from_page_cache().
      
      You would not expect those to need much stack, but in fact they call
      radix_tree_delete(): which declares a 192-byte radix_tree_path array on
      its stack (to record the node,offsets it visits when descending, in case
      it needs to ascend to update them).  And if any tag is still set [1],
      that calls radix_tree_tag_clear(), which declares a further such
      192-byte radix_tree_path array on the stack.  (At least we have
      interrupts disabled here, so won't then be pushing registers too.)
      
      That was probably a good choice when most users were 32-bit (array of
      half the size), and adding fields to radix_tree_node would have bloated
      it unnecessarily.  But nowadays many are 64-bit, and each
      radix_tree_node contains a struct rcu_head, which is only used when
      freeing; whereas the radix_tree_path info is only used for updating the
      tree (deleting, clearing tags or setting tags if tagged) when a lock
      must be held, of no interest when accessing the tree locklessly.
      
      So add a parent pointer to the radix_tree_node, in union with the
      rcu_head, and remove all uses of the radix_tree_path.  There would be
      space in that union to save the offset when descending as before (we can
      argue that a lock must already be held to exclude other users), but
      recalculating it when ascending is both easy (a constant shift and a
      constant mask) and uncommon, so it seems better just to do that.
      
      Two little optimizations: no need to decrement height when descending,
      adjusting shift is enough; and once radix_tree_tag_if_tagged() has set
      tag on a node and its ancestors, it need not ascend from that node
      again.
      
      perf on the radix tree test harness reports radix_tree_insert() as 2%
      slower (now having to set parent), but radix_tree_delete() 24% faster.
      Surely that's an exaggeration from rtth's artificially low map shift 3,
      but forcing it back to 6 still rates radix_tree_delete() 8% faster.
      
      [1] Can a pagecache tag (dirty, writeback or towrite) actually still be
      set at the time of radix_tree_delete()? Perhaps not if the filesystem is
      well-behaved.  But although I've not tracked any stack overflow down to
      this cause, I have observed a curious case in which a dirty tag is set
      and left set on tmpfs: page migration's migrate_page_copy() happens to
      use __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() to set PageDirty on the newpage, and
      that sets PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY as a side-effect - harmless to a
      filesystem which doesn't use tags, except for this stack depth issue.

      dio: optimize cache misses in the submission path · 65dd2aa9
      Andi Kleen authored
      
      
      Some investigation of a transaction processing workload showed that a
      major consumer of cycles in __blockdev_direct_IO is the cache miss while
      accessing the block size.  This is because it has to walk the chain from
      block_dev to gendisk to queue.
      
      The block size is needed early on to check alignment and sizes.  It's only
      done if the check for the inode block size fails.  But the costly block
      device state is unconditionally fetched.
      
      - Reorganize the code to only fetch block dev state when actually
        needed.
      
      Then do a prefetch on the block dev early on in the direct IO path.  This
      is worth it, because there is substantial code run before we actually
      touch the block dev now.
      
      - I also added some unlikelies to make it clear the compiler that block
        device fetch code is not normally executed.
      
      This gave a small, but measurable improvement on a large database
      benchmark (about 0.3%)
