Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main pull request for block/storage for 4.21.
Larger than usual, it was a busy round with lots of goodies queued up.
Most notable is the removal of the old IO stack, which has been a long
time coming. No new features for a while, everything coming in this
week has all been fixes for things that were previously merged.
This contains:
- Use atomic counters instead of semaphores for mtip32xx (Arnd)
- Cleanup of the mtip32xx request setup (Christoph)
- Fix for circular locking dependency in loop (Jan, Tetsuo)
- bcache (Coly, Guoju, Shenghui)
* Optimizations for writeback caching
* Various fixes and improvements
- nvme (Chaitanya, Christoph, Sagi, Jay, me, Keith)
* host and target support for NVMe over TCP
* Error log page support
* Support for separate read/write/poll queues
* Much improved polling
* discard OOM fallback
* Tracepoint improvements
- lightnvm (Hans, Hua, Igor, Matias, Javier)
* Igor added packed metadata to pblk. Now drives without metadata
per LBA can be used as well.
* Fix from Geert on uninitialized value on chunk metadata reads.
* Fixes from Hans and Javier to pblk recovery and write path.
* Fix from Hua Su to fix a race condition in the pblk recovery
code.
* Scan optimization added to pblk recovery from Zhoujie.
* Small geometry cleanup from me.
- Conversion of the last few drivers that used the legacy path to
blk-mq (me)
- Removal of legacy IO path in SCSI (me, Christoph)
- Removal of legacy IO stack and schedulers (me)
- Support for much better polling, now without interrupts at all.
blk-mq adds support for multiple queue maps, which enables us to
have a map per type. This in turn enables nvme to have separate
completion queues for polling, which can then be interrupt-less.
Also means we're ready for async polled IO, which is hopefully
coming in the next release.
- Killing of (now) unused block exports (Christoph)
- Unification of the blk-rq-qos and blk-wbt wait handling (Josef)
- Support for zoned testing with null_blk (Masato)
- sx8 conversion to per-host tag sets (Christoph)
- IO priority improvements (Damien)
- mq-deadline zoned fix (Damien)
- Ref count blkcg series (Dennis)
- Lots of blk-mq improvements and speedups (me)
- sbitmap scalability improvements (me)
- Make core inflight IO accounting per-cpu (Mikulas)
- Export timeout setting in sysfs (Weiping)
- Cleanup the direct issue path (Jianchao)
- Export blk-wbt internals in block debugfs for easier debugging
(Ming)
- Lots of other fixes and improvements"

Pull y2038 updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"More syscalls and cleanups
This concludes the main part of the system call rework for 64-bit
time_t, which has spread over most of year 2018, the last six system
calls being
- ppoll
- pselect6
- io_pgetevents
- recvmmsg
- futex
- rt_sigtimedwait
As before, nothing changes for 64-bit architectures, while 32-bit
architectures gain another entry point that differs only in the layout
of the timespec structure. Hopefully in the next release we can wire
up all 22 of those system calls on all 32-bit architectures, which
gives us a baseline version for glibc to start using them.
This does not include the clock_adjtime, getrusage/waitid, and
getitimer/setitimer system calls. I still plan to have new versions of
those as well, but they are not required for correct operation of the
C library since they can be emulated using the old 32-bit time_t based
system calls.
Aside from the system calls, there are also a few cleanups here,
removing old kernel internal interfaces that have become unused after
all references got removed. The arch/sh cleanups are part of this,
there were posted several times over the past year without a reaction
from the maintainers, while the corresponding changes made it into all
other architectures"

Userspace falls short when trying to find out whether a specific memory
range is eligible for THP. There are usecases that would like to know
that
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.1809251248450.50347@chino.kir.corp.google.com
: This is used to identify heap mappings that should be able to fault thp
: but do not, and they normally point to a low-on-memory or fragmentation
: issue.
The only way to deduce this now is to query for hg resp. nh flags and
confronting the state with the global setting. Except that there is also
PR_SET_THP_DISABLE that might change the picture. So the final logic is
not trivial. Moreover the eligibility of the vma depends on the type of
VMA as well. In the past we have supported only anononymous memory VMAs
but things have changed and shmem based vmas are supported as well these
days and the query logic gets even more complicated because the
eligibility depends on the mount option and another global configuration
knob.
Simplify the current state and report the THP eligibility in
/proc/<pid>/smaps for each existing vma. Reuse
transparent_hugepage_enabled for this purpose. The original
implementation of this function assumes that the caller knows that the vma
itself is supported for THP so make the core checks into
__transparent_hugepage_enabled and use it for existing callers.
__show_smap just use the new transparent_hugepage_enabled which also
checks the vma support status (please note that this one has to be out of
line due to include dependency issues).

Patch series "mmu notifier contextual informations", v2.
This patchset adds contextual information, why an invalidation is
happening, to mmu notifier callback. This is necessary for user of mmu
notifier that wish to maintains their own data structure without having to
add new fields to struct vm_area_struct (vma).
For instance device can have they own page table that mirror the process
address space. When a vma is unmap (munmap() syscall) the device driver
can free the device page table for the range.
Today we do not have any information on why a mmu notifier call back is
happening and thus device driver have to assume that it is always an
munmap(). This is inefficient at it means that it needs to re-allocate
device page table on next page fault and rebuild the whole device driver
data structure for the range.
Other use case beside munmap() also exist, for instance it is pointless
for device driver to invalidate the device page table when the
invalidation is for the soft dirtyness tracking. Or device driver can
optimize away mprotect() that change the page table permission access for
the range.
This patchset enables all this optimizations for device drivers. I do not
include any of those in this series but another patchset I am posting will
leverage this.
The patchset is pretty simple from a code point of view. The first two
patches consolidate all mmu notifier arguments into a struct so that it is
easier to add/change arguments. The last patch adds the contextual
information (munmap, protection, soft dirty, clear, ...).
This patch (of 3):
To avoid having to change many callback definition everytime we want to
add a parameter use a structure to group all parameters for the
mmu_notifier invalidate_range_start/end callback. No functional changes
with this patch.

During online_pages phase, pgdat->nr_zones will be updated in case this
zone is empty.
Currently the online_pages phase is protected by the global locks
(device_device_hotplug_lock and mem_hotplug_lock), which ensures there is
no contention during the update of nr_zones.
These global locks introduces scalability issues (especially the second
one), which slow down code relying on get_online_mems(). This is also a
preparation for not having to rely on get_online_mems() but instead some
more fine grained locks.
The patch moves init_currently_empty_zone under both zone_span_writelock
and pgdat_resize_lock because both the pgdat state is changed (nr_zones)
and the zone's start_pfn. Also this patch changes the documentation of
node_size_lock to include the protection of nr_zones.

pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect pgdat's memory region information
like: node_start_pfn, node_present_pages, etc. While in function
sparse_add/remove_one_section(), pgdat_resize_lock is used to protect
initialization/release of one mem_section. This looks not proper.
These code paths are currently protected by mem_hotplug_lock currently but
should there ever be any reason for locking at the sparse layer a
dedicated lock should be introduced.
Following is the current call trace of sparse_add/remove_one_section()
mem_hotplug_begin()
arch_add_memory()
add_pages()
__add_pages()
__add_section()
sparse_add_one_section()
mem_hotplug_done()

The comment above the pgdat_resize_lock also mentions "Holding this will
also guarantee that any pfn_valid() stays that way.", which is true with
the current implementation and false after this patch. But current
implementation doesn't meet this comment. There isn't any pfn walkers to
take the lock so this looks like a relict from the past. This patch also
removes this comment.

Kmemleak does not play well with KASAN (tested on both HPE Apollo 70 and
Huawei TaiShan 2280 aarch64 servers).
After calling start_kernel()->setup_arch()->kasan_init(), kmemleak early
log buffer went from something like 280 to 260000 which caused kmemleak
disabled and crash dump memory reservation failed. The multitude of
kmemleak_alloc() calls is from nested loops while KASAN is setting up full
memory mappings, so let early kmemleak allocations skip those
memblock_alloc_internal() calls came from kasan_init() given that those
early KASAN memory mappings should not reference to other memory. Hence,
no kmemleak false positives.

When DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is configured, only the first section of
each node's highest zone is initialized before defer stage.
static_init_pgcnt is used to store the number of pages like this:
pgdat->static_init_pgcnt = min_t(unsigned long, PAGES_PER_SECTION,
pgdat->node_spanned_pages);
because we don't want to overflow zone's range.
But this is not necessary, since defer_init() is called like this:
memmap_init_zone()
for pfn in [start_pfn, end_pfn)
defer_init(pfn, end_pfn)
In case (pgdat->node_spanned_pages < PAGES_PER_SECTION), the loop would
stop before calling defer_init().
BTW, comparing PAGES_PER_SECTION with node_spanned_pages is not correct,
since nr_initialised is zone based instead of node based. Even
node_spanned_pages is bigger than PAGES_PER_SECTION, its highest zone
would have pages less than PAGES_PER_SECTION.

Waiting on a page migration entry has used wait_on_page_locked() all along
since 2006: but you cannot safely wait_on_page_locked() without holding a
reference to the page, and that extra reference is enough to make
migrate_page_move_mapping() fail with -EAGAIN, when a racing task faults
on the entry before migrate_page_move_mapping() gets there.
And that failure is retried nine times, amplifying the pain when trying to
migrate a popular page. With a single persistent faulter, migration
sometimes succeeds; with two or three concurrent faulters, success becomes
much less likely (and the more the page was mapped, the worse the overhead
of unmapping and remapping it on each try).
This is especially a problem for memory offlining, where the outer level
retries forever (or until terminated from userspace), because a heavy
refault workload can trigger an endless loop of migration failures.
wait_on_page_locked() is the wrong tool for the job.
David Herrmann (but was he the first?) noticed this issue in 2014:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=140110465608116&w=2
Tim Chen started a thread in August 2017 which appears relevant:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150275941014915&w=2 where Kan Liang went
on to implicate __migration_entry_wait():
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=150300268411980&w=2 and the thread ended
up with the v4.14 commits: 2554db9165 ("sched/wait: Break up long wake
list walk") 11a19c7b09 ("sched/wait: Introduce wakeup boomark in
wake_up_page_bit")
Baoquan He reported "Memory hotplug softlock issue" 14 November 2018:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=154217936431300&w=2
We have all assumed that it is essential to hold a page reference while
waiting on a page lock: partly to guarantee that there is still a struct
page when MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is configured, but also to protect against
reuse of the struct page going to someone who then holds the page locked
indefinitely, when the waiter can reasonably expect timely unlocking.
But in fact, so long as wait_on_page_bit_common() does the put_page(), and
is careful not to rely on struct page contents thereafter, there is no
need to hold a reference to the page while waiting on it. That does mean
that this case cannot go back through the loop: but that's fine for the
page migration case, and even if used more widely, is limited by the "Stop
walking if it's locked" optimization in wake_page_function().
Add interface put_and_wait_on_page_locked() to do this, using "behavior"
enum in place of "lock" arg to wait_on_page_bit_common() to implement it.
No interruptible or killable variant needed yet, but they might follow: I
have a vague notion that reporting -EINTR should take precedence over
return from wait_on_page_bit_common() without knowing the page state, so
arrange it accordingly - but that may be nothing but pedantic.
__migration_entry_wait() still has to take a brief reference to the page,
prior to calling put_and_wait_on_page_locked(): but now that it is dropped
before waiting, the chance of impeding page migration is very much
reduced. Should we perhaps disable preemption across this?
shrink_page_list()'s __ClearPageLocked(): that was a surprise! This
survived a lot of testing before that showed up. PageWaiters may have
been set by wait_on_page_bit_common(), and the reference dropped, just
before shrink_page_list() succeeds in freezing its last page reference: in
such a case, unlock_page() must be used. Follow the suggestion from
Michal Hocko, just revert a978d6f521 ("mm: unlockless reclaim") now:
that optimization predates PageWaiters, and won't buy much these days; but
we can reinstate it for the !PageWaiters case if anyone notices.
It does raise the question: should vmscan.c's is_page_cache_freeable() and
__remove_mapping() now treat a PageWaiters page as if an extra reference
were held? Perhaps, but I don't think it matters much, since
shrink_page_list() already had to win its trylock_page(), so waiters are
not very common there: I noticed no difference when trying the bigger
change, and it's surely not needed while put_and_wait_on_page_locked() is
only used for page migration.

The current oom report doesn't display victim's memcg context during the
global OOM situation. While this information is not strictly needed, it
can be really helpful for containerized environments to locate which
container has lost a process. Now that we have a single line for the oom
context, we can trivially add both the oom memcg (this can be either
global_oom or a specific memcg which hits its hard limits) and task_memcg
which is the victim's memcg.
Below is the single line output in the oom report after this patch.
- global oom context information:
oom-kill:constraint=<constraint>,nodemask=<nodemask>,cpuset=<cpuset>,mems_allowed=<mems_allowed>,global_oom,task_memcg=<memcg>,task=<comm>,pid=<pid>,uid=<uid>

An external fragmentation event was previously described as
When the page allocator fragments memory, it records the event using
the mm_page_alloc_extfrag event. If the fallback_order is smaller
than a pageblock order (order-9 on 64-bit x86) then it's considered
an event that will cause external fragmentation issues in the future.
The kernel reduces the probability of such events by increasing the
watermark sizes by calling set_recommended_min_free_kbytes early in the
lifetime of the system. This works reasonably well in general but if
there are enough sparsely populated pageblocks then the problem can still
occur as enough memory is free overall and kswapd stays asleep.
This patch introduces a watermark_boost_factor sysctl that allows a zone
watermark to be temporarily boosted when an external fragmentation causing
events occurs. The boosting will stall allocations that would decrease
free memory below the boosted low watermark and kswapd is woken if the
calling context allows to reclaim an amount of memory relative to the size
of the high watermark and the watermark_boost_factor until the boost is
cleared. When kswapd finishes, it wakes kcompactd at the pageblock order
to clean some of the pageblocks that may have been affected by the
fragmentation event. kswapd avoids any writeback, slab shrinkage and swap
from reclaim context during this operation to avoid excessive system
disruption in the name of fragmentation avoidance. Care is taken so that
kswapd will do normal reclaim work if the system is really low on memory.
This was evaluated using the same workloads as "mm, page_alloc: Spread
allocations across zones before introducing fragmentation".

There is a large reduction in fragmentation events with some jitter around
the latencies and success rates. As before, the high THP allocation
success rate does mean the system is under a lot of pressure. However, as
the fragmentation events are reduced, it would be expected that the
long-term allocation success rate would be higher.

The last step before devm_memremap_pages() returns success is to allocate
a release action, devm_memremap_pages_release(), to tear the entire setup
down. However, the result from devm_add_action() is not checked.
Checking the error from devm_add_action() is not enough. The api
currently relies on the fact that the percpu_ref it is using is killed by
the time the devm_memremap_pages_release() is run. Rather than continue
this awkward situation, offload the responsibility of killing the
percpu_ref to devm_memremap_pages_release() directly. This allows
devm_memremap_pages() to do the right thing relative to init failures and
shutdown.
Without this change we could fail to register the teardown of
devm_memremap_pages(). The likelihood of hitting this failure is tiny as
small memory allocations almost always succeed. However, the impact of
the failure is large given any future reconfiguration, or disable/enable,
of an nvdimm namespace will fail forever as subsequent calls to
devm_memremap_pages() will fail to setup the pgmap_radix since there will
be stale entries for the physical address range.
An argument could be made to require that the ->kill() operation be set in
the @pgmap arg rather than passed in separately. However, it helps code
readability, tracking the lifetime of a given instance, to be able to grep
the kill routine directly at the devm_memremap_pages() call site.

Since a2468cc9bf ("swap: choose swap device according to numa node"),
avail_lists field of swap_info_struct is changed to an array with
MAX_NUMNODES elements. This made swap_info_struct size increased to 40KiB
and needs an order-4 page to hold it.
This is not optimal in that:
1 Most systems have way less than MAX_NUMNODES(1024) nodes so it
is a waste of memory;
2 It could cause swapon failure if the swap device is swapped on
after system has been running for a while, due to no order-4
page is available as pointed out by Vasily Averin.
Solve the above two issues by using nr_node_ids(which is the actual
possible node number the running system has) for avail_lists instead of
MAX_NUMNODES.
nr_node_ids is unknown at compile time so can't be directly used when
declaring this array. What I did here is to declare avail_lists as zero
element array and allocate space for it when allocating space for
swap_info_struct. The reason why keep using array but not pointer is
plist_for_each_entry needs the field to be part of the struct, so pointer
will not work.
This patch is on top of Vasily Averin's fix commit. I think the use of
kvzalloc for swap_info_struct is still needed in case nr_node_ids is
really big on some systems.

Patch series "Currently used jhash are slow enough and replace it allow as

Apeed (in kernel):
ksm: crc32c hash() 12081 MB/s
ksm: xxh64 hash() 8770 MB/s
ksm: xxh32 hash() 4529 MB/s
ksm: jhash2 hash() 1569 MB/s
Sioh Lee's testing (copy from other mail):
Test platform: openstack cloud platform (NEWTON version)
Experiment node: openstack based cloud compute node (CPU: xeon E5-2620 v3, memory 64gb)
VM: (2 VCPU, RAM 4GB, DISK 20GB) * 4
Linux kernel: 4.14 (latest version)
KSM setup - sleep_millisecs: 200ms, pages_to_scan: 200
Experiment process:
Firstly, we turn off KSM and launch 4 VMs. Then we turn on the KSM and
measure the checksum computation time until full_scans become two.
The experimental results (the experimental value is the average of the measured values)
crc32c_intel: 1084.10ns
crc32c (no hardware acceleration): 7012.51ns
xxhash32: 2227.75ns
xxhash64: 1413.16ns
jhash2: 5128.30ns
In summary, the result shows that crc32c_intel has advantages over all of
the hash function used in the experiment. (decreased by 84.54% compared
to crc32c, 78.86% compared to jhash2, 51.33% xxhash32, 23.28% compared to
xxhash64) the results are similar to those of Timofey.
But, use only xxhash for now, because for using crc32c, cryptoapi must be
initialized first - that require some tricky solution to work good in all
situations.
So:
- First patch implement compile time pickup of fastest implementation of
xxhash for target platform.
- The second patch replaces jhash2 with xxhash
This patch (of 2):
xxh32() - fast on both 32/64-bit platforms
xxh64() - fast only on 64-bit platform
Create xxhash() which will pick up the fastest version at compile time.

which are not triggered by the memory hotplug but rather CMA allocator.
The original idea behind dumping the page state for all call paths was
that these messages will be helpful debugging failures. From the above it
seems that this is not the case for the CMA path because we are lacking
much more context. E.g the second reported page might be a CMA allocated
page. It is still interesting to see a slab page in the CMA area but it
is hard to tell whether this is bug from the above output alone.
Address this issue by dumping the page state only on request. Both
start_isolate_page_range and has_unmovable_pages already have an argument
to ignore hwpoison pages so make this argument more generic and turn it
into flags and allow callers to combine non-default modes into a mask.
While we are at it, has_unmovable_pages call from
is_pageblock_removable_nolock (sysfs removable file) is questionable to
report the failure so drop it from there as well.

This happened while running in qemu-system-aarch64, the AMBA PL011 UART
driver when enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE.
arch_initcall(pl011_init) came before subsys_initcall(default_bdi_init),
devtmpfs' handle_remove() crashes because the reference count is a NULL
pointer only because wb->bdi hasn't been initialized yet.
Rework so that wb_put have an extra check if wb->bdi before decrement
wb->refcnt and also add a WARN_ON_ONCE to get a warning if it happens
again in other drivers.

Multiple people have reported the following sparse warning:
./include/linux/slab.h:332:43: warning: dubious: x & !y
The minimal fix would be to change the logical & to boolean &&, which
emits the same code, but Andrew has suggested that the branch-avoiding
tricks are maybe not worthwile. David Laight provided a nice comparison
of disassembly of multiple variants, which shows that the current version
produces a 4 deep dependency chain, and fixing the sparse warning by
changing logical and to multiplication emits an IMUL, making it even more
expensive.
The code as rewritten by this patch yielded the best disassembly, with a
single predictable branch for the most common case, and a ternary operator
for the rest, which gcc seems to compile without a branch or cmov by
itself.
The result should be more readable, without a sparse warning and probably
also faster for the common case.

Tag-based KASAN doesn't check memory accesses through pointers tagged with
0xff. When page_address is used to get pointer to memory that corresponds
to some page, the tag of the resulting pointer gets set to 0xff, even
though the allocated memory might have been tagged differently.
For slab pages it's impossible to recover the correct tag to return from
page_address, since the page might contain multiple slab objects tagged
with different values, and we can't know in advance which one of them is
going to get accessed. For non slab pages however, we can recover the tag
in page_address, since the whole page was marked with the same tag.
This patch adds tagging to non slab memory allocated with pagealloc. To
set the tag of the pointer returned from page_address, the tag gets stored
to page->flags when the memory gets allocated.

While with SLUB we can actually preassign tags for caches with contructors
and store them in pointers in the freelist, SLAB doesn't allow that since
the freelist is stored as an array of indexes, so there are no pointers to
store the tags.
Instead we compute the tag twice, once when a slab is created before
calling the constructor and then again each time when an object is
allocated with kmalloc. Tag is computed simply by taking the lowest byte
of the index that corresponds to the object. However in kasan_kmalloc we
only have access to the objects pointer, so we need a way to find out
which index this object corresponds to.
This patch moves obj_to_index from slab.c to include/linux/slab_def.h to
be reused by KASAN.

This commit splits the current CONFIG_KASAN config option into two:
1. CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC, that enables the generic KASAN mode (the one
that exists now);
2. CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS, that enables the software tag-based KASAN mode.
The name CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS is chosen as in the future we will have
another hardware tag-based KASAN mode, that will rely on hardware memory
tagging support in arm64.
With CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS enabled, compiler options are changed to
instrument kernel files with -fsantize=kernel-hwaddress (except the ones
for which KASAN_SANITIZE := n is set).
Both CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC and CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS support both
CONFIG_KASAN_INLINE and CONFIG_KASAN_OUTLINE instrumentation modes.
This commit also adds empty placeholder (for now) implementation of
tag-based KASAN specific hooks inserted by the compiler and adjusts
common hooks implementation.
While this commit adds the CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS config option, this option
is not selectable, as it depends on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_SW_TAGS, which we will
enable once all the infrastracture code has been added.
