oom_score_adj is shared for the thread groups (via struct signal) but this
is not sufficient to cover processes sharing mm (CLONE_VM without
CLONE_SIGHAND) and so we can easily end up in a situation when some
processes update their oom_score_adj and confuse the oom killer. In the
worst case some of those processes might hide from the oom killer
altogether via OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MIN while others are eligible. OOM killer
would then pick up those eligible but won't be allowed to kill others
sharing the same mm so the mm wouldn't release the mm and so the memory.
It would be ideal to have the oom_score_adj per mm_struct because that is
the natural entity OOM killer considers. But this will not work because
some programs are doing
vfork()
set_oom_adj()
exec()
We can achieve the same though. oom_score_adj write handler can set the
oom_score_adj for all processes sharing the same mm if the task is not in
the middle of vfork. As a result all the processes will share the same
oom_score_adj. The current implementation is rather pessimistic and
checks all the existing processes by default if there is more than 1
holder of the mm but we do not have any reliable way to check for external
users yet.

Probably the most interesting part long-term is ->d_init() - that will

really non-trivial stuff.

and dentry_unlink_inode()) and a bunch of ->d_compare() ones (all
except the one in __d_lookup_lru())"

This changes the vfs dentry hashing to mix in the parent pointer at the
_beginning_ of the hash, rather than at the end.
That actually improves both the hash and the code generation, because we
can move more of the computation to the "static" part of the dcache
setup, and do less at lookup runtime.
It turns out that a lot of other hash users also really wanted to mix in
a base pointer as a 'salt' for the hash, and so the slightly extended
interface ends up working well for other cases too.
Users that want a string hash that is purely about the string pass in a
'salt' pointer of NULL.

The genksyms helper in the kernel cannot parse a type definition
like "typeof(((type *)0)->keyfld)" that is used in the DEFINE_RB_FUNCS
helper, causing the following EXPORT_SYMBOL() statement to be ignored
when computing the crcs, and triggering a warning about this:
WARNING: "ceph_monc_do_statfs" [fs/ceph/ceph.ko] has no CRC
To work around the problem, we can rewrite the type to reference
an undefined 'extern' symbol instead of a NULL pointer. This is
evidently ok for genksyms, and it no longer complains about the
line when calling it with 'genksyms -w'.
I've looked briefly into extending genksyms instead, but it seems
really hard to do. Jan Beulich introduced basic support for 'typeof'
a while ago in dc53324060 ("genksyms: fix typeof() handling"),
but that is not sufficient for the expression we have here.

Pull spi updates from Mark Brown:
"Quite a lot of cleanup and maintainence work going on this release in
various drivers, and also a fix for a nasty locking issue in the core:
- A fix for locking issues when external drivers explicitly locked
the bus with spi_bus_lock() - we were using the same lock to both
control access to the physical bus in multi-threaded I/O operations
and exclude multiple callers.
Confusion between these two caused us to have scenarios where we
were dropping locks. These are fixed by splitting into two
separate locks like should have been done originally, making
everything much clearer and correct.
- Support for DMA in spi_flash_read().
- Support for instantiating spidev on ACPI systems, including some
test devices used in Windows validation.
- Use of the core DMA mapping functionality in the McSPI driver.
- Start of support for ThunderX SPI controllers, involving a very big
set of changes to the Cavium driver.

Parameter trydefaults=1 causes the ipmi_init to initialize ipmi through
the legacy port io space that was designated for ipmi. Architectures
that do not map legacy port io can panic when trydefaults=1.
Rather than implement build-time conditional exceptions for each
architecture that does not map legacy port io, we have removed legacy
port io from the driver.
Parameter 'trydefaults' has been removed. Attempts to use it hereafter
will evoke the "Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter" message.
The patch was built against a number of architectures and tested for
regressions and functionality on x86_64 and ARM64.

Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The new feaures here are the support for ACPI overlays (allowing ACPI
tables to be loaded at any time from EFI variables or via configfs)
and the LPI (Low-Power Idle) support. Also notable is the ACPI-based
NUMA support for ARM64.
Apart from that we have two new drivers, for the DPTF (Dynamic Power
and Thermal Framework) power participant device and for the Intel
Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC, some more PMIC-related changes, support for
the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and support for
platform-initiated graceful shutdown.
Plus two new pieces of documentation and usual assorted fixes and
cleanups in quite a few places.
Specifics:
- Support for ACPI SSDT overlays allowing Secondary System
Description Tables (SSDTs) to be loaded at any time from EFI
variables or via configfs (Octavian Purdila, Mika Westerberg).
- Support for the ACPI LPI (Low-Power Idle) feature introduced in
ACPI 6.0 and allowing processor idle states to be represented in
ACPI tables in a hierarchical way (with the help of Processor

ARM64, based on LPI (Sudeep Holla).
- General improvements of ACPI support for NUMA and ARM64 support for
ACPI-based NUMA (Hanjun Guo, David Daney, Robert Richter).
- General improvements of the ACPI table upgrade mechanism and ARM64
support for that feature (Aleksey Makarov, Jon Masters).
- Support for the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Again, the majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem, but
there are no big features this time. The cpufreq changes that stand
out somewhat are the governor interface rework and improvements
related to the handling of frequency tables. Apart from those, there
are fixes and new device/CPU IDs in drivers, cleanups and an
improvement of the new schedutil governor.
Next, there are some changes in the hibernation core, including a fix
for a nasty problem related to the MONITOR/MWAIT usage by CPU offline
during resume from hibernation, a few core improvements related to
memory management during resume, a couple of additional debug features
and cleanups.
Finally, we have some fixes and cleanups in the devfreq subsystem,
generic power domains framework improvements related to system
suspend/resume, support for some new chips in intel_idle and in the
power capping RAPL driver, a new version of the AnalyzeSuspend utility
and some assorted fixes and cleanups.
Specifics:
- Rework the cpufreq governor interface to make it more
straightforward and modify the conservative governor to avoid using
transition notifications (Rafael Wysocki).
- Rework the handling of frequency tables by the cpufreq core to make
it more efficient (Viresh Kumar).
- Modify the schedutil governor to reduce the number of wakeups it
causes to occur in cases when the CPU frequency doesn't need to be
changed (Steve Muckle, Viresh Kumar).
- Fix some minor issues and clean up code in the cpufreq core and
governors (Rafael Wysocki, Viresh Kumar).
- Add Intel Broxton support to the intel_pstate driver (Srinivas
Pandruvada).
- Fix problems related to the config TDP feature and to the validity
of the MSR_HWP_INTERRUPT register in intel_pstate (Jan Kiszka,
Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Make intel_pstate update the cpu_frequency tracepoint even if the
frequency doesn't change to avoid confusing powertop (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Clean up the usage of __init/__initdata in intel_pstate, mark some
of its internal variables as __read_mostly and drop an unused
structure element from it (Jisheng Zhang, Carsten Emde).
- Clean up the usage of some duplicate MSR symbols in intel_pstate
and turbostat (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Update/fix the powernv, s3c24xx and mvebu cpufreq drivers (Akshay
Adiga, Viresh Kumar, Ben Dooks).
- Fix a regression (introduced during the 4.5 cycle) in the
pcc-cpufreq driver by reverting the problematic commit (Andreas
Herrmann).
- Add support for Intel Denverton to intel_idle, clean up Broxton
support in it and make it explicitly non-modular (Jacob Pan, Jan
Beulich, Paul Gortmaker).
- Add support for Denverton and Ivy Bridge server to the Intel RAPL
power capping driver and make it more careful about the handing of
MSRs that may not be present (Jacob Pan, Xiaolong Wang).
- Fix resume from hibernation on x86-64 by making the CPU offline
during resume avoid using MONITOR/MWAIT in the "play dead" loop
which may lead to an inadvertent "revival" of a "dead" CPU and a
page fault leading to a kernel crash from it (Rafael Wysocki).
- Make memory management during resume from hibernation more
straightforward (Rafael Wysocki).
- Add debug features that should help to detect problems related to
hibernation and resume from it (Rafael Wysocki, Chen Yu).
- Clean up hibernation core somewhat (Rafael Wysocki).
- Prevent KASAN from instrumenting the hibernation core which leads
to large numbers of false-positives from it (James Morse).
- Prevent PM (hibernate and suspend) notifiers from being called
during the cleanup phase if they have not been called during the
corresponding preparation phase which is possible if one of the
other notifiers returns an error at that time (Lianwei Wang).
- Improve suspend-related debug printout in the tasks freezer and
clean up suspend-related console handling (Roger Lu, Borislav
Petkov).
- Update the AnalyzeSuspend script in the kernel sources to version
4.2 (Todd Brandt).
- Modify the generic power domains framework to make it handle system
suspend/resume better (Ulf Hansson).
- Make the runtime PM framework avoid resuming devices synchronously
when user space changes the runtime PM settings for them and
improve its error reporting (Rafael Wysocki, Linus Walleij).
- Fix error paths in devfreq drivers (exynos, exynos-ppmu,
exynos-bus) and in the core, make some devfreq code explicitly
non-modular and change some of it into tristate (Bartlomiej
Zolnierkiewicz, Peter Chen, Paul Gortmaker).
- Add DT support to the generic PM clocks management code and make it
export some more symbols (Jon Hunter, Paul Gortmaker).
- Make the PCI PM core code slightly more robust against possible
driver errors (Andy Shevchenko).
- Make it possible to change DESTDIR and PREFIX in turbostat (Andy
Shevchenko)"

It was caused by non-lru page migration which needs compaction.h but
compaction.h doesn't include any header to be standalone.
I think proper header for non-lru page migration is migrate.h rather
than compaction.h because migrate.h has already headers needed to work
non-lru page migration indirectly like isolate_mode_t, migrate_mode
MIGRATEPAGE_SUCCESS.

Even if user asked to allocate huge pages always (huge=always), we
should be able to free up some memory by splitting pages which are
partly byound i_size if memory presure comes or once we hit limit on
filesystem size (-o size=).
In order to do this we maintain per-superblock list of inodes, which
potentially have huge pages on the border of file size.
Per-fs shrinker can reclaim memory by splitting such pages.
If we hit -ENOSPC during shmem_getpage_gfp(), we try to split a page to
free up space on the filesystem and retry allocation if it succeed.

This patch extends khugepaged to support collapse of tmpfs/shmem pages.
We share fair amount of infrastructure with anon-THP collapse.
Few design points:
- First we are looking for VMA which can be suitable for mapping huge
page;
- If the VMA maps shmem file, the rest scan/collapse operations
operates on page cache, not on page tables as in anon VMA case.
- khugepaged_scan_shmem() finds a range which is suitable for huge
page. The scan is lockless and shouldn't disturb system too much.
- once the candidate for collapse is found, collapse_shmem() attempts
to create a huge page:
+ scan over radix tree, making the range point to new huge page;
+ new huge page is not-uptodate, locked and freezed (refcount
is 0), so nobody can touch them until we say so.
+ we swap in pages during the scan. khugepaged_scan_shmem()
filters out ranges with more than khugepaged_max_ptes_swap
swapped out pages. It's HPAGE_PMD_NR/8 by default.
+ old pages are isolated, unmapped and put to local list in case
to be restored back if collapse failed.
- if collapse succeed, we retract pte page tables from VMAs where huge
pages mapping is possible. The huge page will be mapped as PMD on
next minor fault into the range.

Here's basic implementation of huge pages support for shmem/tmpfs.
It's all pretty streight-forward:
- shmem_getpage() allcoates huge page if it can and try to inserd into
radix tree with shmem_add_to_page_cache();
- shmem_add_to_page_cache() puts the page onto radix-tree if there's
space for it;
- shmem_undo_range() removes huge pages, if it fully within range.
Partial truncate of huge pages zero out this part of THP.
This have visible effect on fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE)
behaviour. As we don't really create hole in this case,
lseek(SEEK_HOLE) may have inconsistent results depending what
pages happened to be allocated.
- no need to change shmem_fault: core-mm will map an compound page as
huge if VMA is suitable;

Provide a shmem_get_unmapped_area method in file_operations, called at
mmap time to decide the mapping address. It could be conditional on
CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, but save #ifdefs in other places by making
it unconditional.
shmem_get_unmapped_area() first calls the usual mm->get_unmapped_area
(which we treat as a black box, highly dependent on architecture and
config and executable layout). Lots of conditions, and in most cases it
just goes with the address that chose; but when our huge stars are
rightly aligned, yet that did not provide a suitable address, go back to
ask for a larger arena, within which to align the mapping suitably.
There have to be some direct calls to shmem_get_unmapped_area(), not via
the file_operations: because of the way shmem_zero_setup() is called to
create a shmem object late in the mmap sequence, when MAP_SHARED is
requested with MAP_ANONYMOUS or /dev/zero. Though this only matters
when /proc/sys/vm/shmem_huge has been set.

This patch adds new mount option "huge=". It can have following values:
- "always":
Attempt to allocate huge pages every time we need a new page;
- "never":
Do not allocate huge pages;
- "within_size":
Only allocate huge page if it will be fully within i_size.
Also respect fadvise()/madvise() hints;
- "advise:
Only allocate huge pages if requested with fadvise()/madvise();
Default is "never" for now.
"mount -o remount,huge= /mountpoint" works fine after mount: remounting
huge=never will not attempt to break up huge pages at all, just stop
more from being allocated.
No new config option: put this under CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, which
is the appropriate option to protect those who don't want the new bloat,
and with which we shall share some pmd code.
Prohibit the option when !CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, just as mpol is
invalid without CONFIG_NUMA (was hidden in mpol_parse_str(): make it
explicit).
Allow enabling THP only if the machine has_transparent_hugepage().
But what about Shmem with no user-visible mount? SysV SHM, memfds,
shared anonymous mmaps (of /dev/zero or MAP_ANONYMOUS), GPU drivers' DRM
objects, Ashmem. Though unlikely to suit all usages, provide sysfs knob
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/shmem_enabled to experiment with
huge on those.
And allow shmem_enabled two further values:
- "deny":
For use in emergencies, to force the huge option off from
all mounts;
- "force":
Force the huge option on for all - very useful for testing;
Based on patch by Hugh Dickins.
