Pull block fixes and updates from Jens Axboe:
"Some fixes and followup features/changes that should go in, in this
merge window. This contains:
- Two fixes for lightnvm from Javier, fixing problems in the new code
merge previously in this merge window.
- A fix from Jan for the backing device changes, fixing an issue in
NFS that causes a failure to mount on certain setups.
- A change from Christoph, cleaning up the blk-mq init and exit
request paths.
- Remove elevator_change(), which is now unused. From Bart.
- A fix for queue operation invocation on a dead queue, from Bart.
- A series fixing up mtip32xx for blk-mq scheduling, removing a
bandaid we previously had in place for this. From me.
- A regression fix for this series, fixing a case where we wait on
workqueue flushing from an invalid (non-blocking) context. From me.
- A fix/optimization from Ming, ensuring that we don't both quiesce
and freeze a queue at the same time.
- A fix from Peter on lock ordering for CPU hotplug. Not a real
problem right now, but will be once the CPU hotplug rework goes in.
- A series from Omar, cleaning up out blk-mq debugfs support, and
adding support for exporting info from schedulers in debugfs as
well. This is really useful in debugging stalls or livelocks. From
Omar"

* Region media error reporting: A libnvdimm region device is the parent to one or more namespaces. To date, media errors have been reported via the "badblocks" attribute attached to pmem block devices for namespaces in "raw" or "memory" mode. Given that namespaces can be in "device-dax" or "btt-sector" mode this new interface reports media errors generically, i.e. independent of namespace modes or state. This subsequently allows userspace tooling to craft "ACPI 6.1 Section 9.20.7.6 Function Index 4 - Clear Uncorrectable Error" requests and submit them via the ioctl path for NVDIMM root bus devices. * Introduce 'struct dax_device' and 'struct dax_operations': Prompted by a request from Linus and feedback from Christoph this allows for dax capable drivers to publish their own custom dax operations. This fixes the broken assumption that all dax operations are related to a persistent memory device, and makes it easier for other architectures and platforms to add customized persistent memory support. * 'libnvdimm' core updates: A new "deep_flush" sysfs attribute is available for storage appliance applications to manually trigger memory controllers to drain write-pending buffers that would otherwise be flushed automatically by the platform ADR (asynchronous-DRAM-refresh) mechanism at a power loss event. Support for "locked" DIMMs is included to prevent namespaces from surfacing when the namespace label data area is locked. Finally, fixes for various reported deadlocks and crashes, also tagged for -stable. * ACPI / nfit driver updates: General updates of the nfit driver to add DSM command overrides, ACPI 6.1 health state flags support, DSM payload debug available by default, and various fixes. Acknowledgements that came after the branch was pushed: commmit

Here is the big staging tree update for 4.12-rc1. And it's a big one, adding about 350k new lines of crap^Wcode, mostly all in a big dump of media drivers from Intel. But there's other new drivers in here as well, yet-another-wifi driver, new IIO drivers, and a new crypto accelerator. We also deleted a bunch of stuff, mostly in patch cleanups, but also the Android ION code has shrunk a lot, and the Android low memory killer driver was finally deleted, much to the celebration of the -mm developers. All of these have been in linux-next with a few build issues that will show up when you merge to your tree, I'll follow up with fixes for those after this gets merged.

Highlights include:
- Larger virtual address space on 64-bit server CPUs. By default we use a 128TB
virtual address space, but a process can request access to the full 512TB by
passing a hint to mmap().
- Support for the new Power9 "XIVE" interrupt controller.
- TLB flushing optimisations for the radix MMU on Power9.
- Support for CAPI cards on Power9, using the "Coherent Accelerator Interface
Architecture 2.0".
- The ability to configure the mmap randomisation limits at build and runtime.
- Several small fixes and cleanups to the kprobes code, as well as support for
KPROBES_ON_FTRACE.
- Major improvements to handling of system reset interrupts, correctly treating
them as NMIs, giving them a dedicated stack and using a new hypervisor call
to trigger them, all of which should aid debugging and robustness.
Many fixes and other minor enhancements.

This contains various fixes to the host1x driver as well as a plug for a leak of kernel pointers to userspace. A fairly big addition this time around is the Video Image Composer (VIC) support that can be used to accelerate some 2D and image compositing operations. Furthermore the driver now supports FB modifiers, so we no longer rely on a custom IOCTL to set those. Finally this contains a few preparatory patches for Tegra186 support which unfortunately didn't quite make it this time, but will hopefully be ready for v4.13. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCAAxFiEEiOrDCAFJzPfAjcif3SOs138+s6EFAljmxI8THHRyZWRpbmdA bnZpZGlhLmNvbQAKCRDdI6zXfz6zocZaD/9AaoXn19oEPYiWx+MjIAkhBiYEw+oq RrJ1uVisZIx8Y+ftVtwURLh3HS7SXg3F3mjJxfJVxqqlGfTCry0eiru1qbAbkwC2 ebStjdBBnAhMws22Dba5R5aHh21b1px/fj9u+jtiqcKgWzB28D+jH6G4ViTzOgXs TT1inq5SQfpL3e0+ovmVEh7/URdWf5tPQVWVuvOewTdVA2NYRXpAAFKhGWp4vD28 brvGPzYgEzBF1Q8p3f9kczbtwqChZuwnwVeP/9EP+U+gApIlmFC8XTISAuBYHWfT baJQJ/V5wjM8m3FmsX4YL8VKplhw2/JMINfD37hzjVlqskN5V80KfNlKTe8yAK96 sP0HDg72zlZ0HHOmOESuxyNyLRYkDpuVNKh4my24u77y/VcpihwMRPc8chnpG76h jh+7qlZZM8XNnVnFJN5HWLiRTUjZ9y3loJ//Wu97JkOr7SuHQ7qzhPDZV/jZepIG XkSD1dac7ii2huA6zxSFZzylwBvLHyrdj4s7imNckkNSbVNpm204Bzs0Rr2ju0bv YBe2+yGkurE8ePfONeaAkpFxHkAkdC0b2SlbZf7MgSaant2s/CV9DGgj03ZipC1g n2juRlDGLw+B1MOU+dWv/cMZmrO3Xg36E0gYgqskYRunqTdVT+Vx70D0rygo7hDd G7qvllT6oqKJ1g== =Eqtp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'drm/tegra/for-4.12-rc1' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/tegra/linux into drm-next drm/tegra: Changes for v4.12-rc1 This contains various fixes to the host1x driver as well as a plug for a leak of kernel pointers to userspace.

Here is the big USB patchset for 4.12-rc1. Lots of good stuff here, after many many many attempts, the kernel finally has a working typeC interface, many thanks to the Heikki and Guenter and others who have taken the time to get this merged. It wasn't an easy path for them at all. There's also a staging driver that uses this new api, which is why it's coming in through this tree. Along with that, there's the usual huge number of changes for gadget drivers, xhci, and other stuff. Johan also finally refactored pretty much every driver that was looking at USB endpoints to do it in a common way, which will help prevent any "badly-formed" devices from causing problems in drivers. That too wasn't a simple task. All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.

This is a preparation patch for handling locked nvdimm label regions, a new concept as introduced by the latest DSM document on pmem.io [1]. A future patch will leverage nvdimm_set_locked() at DIMM probe time to flag regions that can not be enabled. There should be no functional difference resulting from this change.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) The wireless rate info fix from Johannes Berg.
2) When a RAW socket is in hdrincl mode, we need to make sure that the
user provided at least a minimally sized ipv4/ipv6 header. Fix from
Alexander Potapenko.
3) We must emit IFLA_PHYS_PORT_NAME netlink attributes using
nla_put_string() so that it is NULL terminated.
4) Fix a bug in TCP fastopen handling, wherein child sockets
erroneously inherit the fastopen_req from the parent, and later can
end up derefencing freed memory or doing a double free. From Eric
Dumazet.
5) Don't clear out netdev stats at close time in tg3 driver, from
YueHaibing.
6) Fix refcount leak in xt_CT, from Gao Feng.
7) In nft_set_bitmap() don't leak dummy elements, from Liping Zhang.
8) Fix deadlock due to taking the expectation lock twice, also from
Liping Zhang.
9) Make xt_socket work again with ipv6, from Peter Tirsek.
10) Don't allow IPV6 to be used with IPVS if ipv6.disable=1, from Paolo
Abeni.
11) Make the BPF loader more flexible wrt. changes to the bpf MAP entry
layout. From Jesper Dangaard Brouer.
12) Fix ethtool reported device name in aquantia driver, from Pavel
Belous.
13) Fix build failures due to the compile time size test not working in
netfilter conntrack. From Geert Uytterhoeven.

Core changes
- Return NULL from gpiod_get_optional() when GPIOLIB is disabled.
This was a much discussed change. It affects use cases where people
write drivers that might or might not be using GPIO resources.
I have decided that this is the lesser evil right now.
- Make gpiod_count() behave consistently across different hardware
descriptions.
- Fix the syntax around open drain/open source to not infer active
high/low semantics.
New drivers
- A new single-register fixed-direction framework driver for hardware
that have lines controlled by a single register that just work in
one direction (out or in), including IRQ support.
- Support the Fintek F71889A GPIO SuperIO controller.
- Support the National NI 169445 MMIO GPIO.
- Support for the X-Gene derivative of the DWC GPIO controller
- Support for the Rohm BD9571MWV-M PMIC GPIO controller.
- Refactor the Gemini GPIO driver to a generic Faraday FTGPIO driver
and replace both the Gemini and the Moxa ART custom drivers with
this driver.
Driver improvements
- A whole slew of drivers have their spinlocks chaned to raw spinlocks
as they provide irqchips, and thus we are progressing on realtime
compliance.
- Use devm_irq_alloc_descs() in a slew of drivers, getting managed
resources.
- Support for the embedded PWM controller inside the MVEBU driver.
- Debounce, open source and open drain support for the Aspeed driver.
- Misc smaller fixes like spelling and syntax and whatnot.

Originally, I tied debugfs registration/unregistration together with sysfs. There's no reason to do this, and it's getting in the way of letting schedulers define their own debugfs attributes. Instead, tie the debugfs registration to the lifetime of the structures themselves. The saner lifetimes mean we can also get rid of the extra mq directory and move everything one level up. I.e., nvme0n1/mq/hctx0/tags is now just nvme0n1/hctx0/tags. Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@fb.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

o Pretty much a full rewrite of the processing of function plugins.
i.e. echo do_IRQ:stacktrace > set_ftrace_filter
o The rewrite was needed to add plugins to be unique to tracing instances.
i.e. mkdir instance/foo; cd instances/foo; echo do_IRQ:stacktrace > set_ftrace_filter
The old way was written very hacky. This removes a lot of those hacks.
o New "function-fork" tracing option. When set, pids in the set_ftrace_pid
will have their children added when the processes with their pids
listed in the set_ftrace_pid file forks.
o Exposure of "maxactive" for kretprobe in kprobe_events
o Allow for builtin init functions to be traced by the function tracer
(via the kernel command line). Module init function tracing will come
in the next release.
o Added more selftests, and have selftests also test in an instance.

On SPARSEMEM systems page poisoning is enabled after buddy is up, because of the dependency on page extension init. This causes the pages released by free_all_bootmem not to be poisoned. This either delays or misses the identification of some issues because the pages have to undergo another cycle of alloc-free-alloc for any corruption to be detected. Enable page poisoning early by getting rid of the PAGE_EXT_DEBUG_POISON flag. Since all the free pages will now be poisoned, the flag need not be verified before checking the poison during an alloc.

try_to_munlock returns SWAP_MLOCK if the one of VMAs mapped the page has VM_LOCKED flag. In that time, VM set PG_mlocked to the page if the page is not pte-mapped THP which cannot be mlocked, either. With that, __munlock_isolated_page can use PageMlocked to check whether try_to_munlock is successful or not without relying on try_to_munlock's retval. It helps to make try_to_unmap/try_to_unmap_one simple with upcoming patches.

If we found lazyfree page is dirty, try_to_unmap_one can just SetPageSwapBakced in there like PG_mlocked page and just return with SWAP_FAIL which is very natural because the page is not swappable right now so that vmscan can activate it. There is no point to introduce new return value SWAP_DIRTY in try_to_unmap at the moment.

now that we have memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} api we can mark the whole
transaction context as implicitly GFP_NOFS. All allocations will
automatically inherit GFP_NOFS this way. This means that we do not have
to mark any of those requests with GFP_NOFS and moreover all the
ext4_kv[mz]alloc(GFP_NOFS) are also safe now because even the hardcoded
GFP_KERNEL allocations deep inside the vmalloc will be NOFS now.

GFP_NOFS context is used for the following 5 reasons currently:
- to prevent from deadlocks when the lock held by the allocation
context would be needed during the memory reclaim
- to prevent from stack overflows during the reclaim because the
allocation is performed from a deep context already
- to prevent lockups when the allocation context depends on other
reclaimers to make a forward progress indirectly
- just in case because this would be safe from the fs POV
- silence lockdep false positives
Unfortunately overuse of this allocation context brings some problems to
the MM. Memory reclaim is much weaker (especially during heavy FS
metadata workloads), OOM killer cannot be invoked because the MM layer
doesn't have enough information about how much memory is freeable by the
FS layer.
In many cases it is far from clear why the weaker context is even used
and so it might be used unnecessarily. We would like to get rid of
those as much as possible. One way to do that is to use the flag in
scopes rather than isolated cases. Such a scope is declared when really
necessary, tracked per task and all the allocation requests from within
the context will simply inherit the GFP_NOFS semantic.
Not only this is easier to understand and maintain because there are
much less problematic contexts than specific allocation requests, this
also helps code paths where FS layer interacts with other layers (e.g.
crypto, security modules, MM etc...) and there is no easy way to convey
the allocation context between the layers.
Introduce memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} API to control the scope of
GFP_NOFS allocation context. This is basically copying
memalloc_noio_{save,restore} API we have for other restricted allocation
context GFP_NOIO. The PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS flag already exists and it is
just an alias for PF_FSTRANS which has been xfs specific until recently.
There are no more PF_FSTRANS users anymore so let's just drop it.
PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS is now checked in the MM layer and drops __GFP_FS
implicitly same as PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO drops __GFP_IO. memalloc_noio_flags
is renamed to current_gfp_context because it now cares about both
PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS and PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO contexts. Xfs code paths preserve
their semantic. kmem_flags_convert() doesn't need to evaluate the flag
anymore.
This patch shouldn't introduce any functional changes.
Let's hope that filesystems will drop direct GFP_NOFS (resp. ~__GFP_FS)
usage as much as possible and only use a properly documented
memalloc_nofs_{save,restore} checkpoints where they are appropriate.

xfs has defined PF_FSTRANS to declare a scope GFP_NOFS semantic quite some time ago. We would like to make this concept more generic and use it for other filesystems as well. Let's start by giving the flag a more generic name PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS which is in line with an exiting PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO already used for the same purpose for GFP_NOIO contexts. Replace all PF_FSTRANS usage from the xfs code in the first step before we introduce a full API for it as xfs uses the flag directly anyway. This patch doesn't introduce any functional change.

The current implementation of the reclaim lockup detection can lead to false positives and those even happen and usually lead to tweak the code to silence the lockdep by using GFP_NOFS even though the context can use __GFP_FS just fine. See http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160512080321.GA18496@dastard as an example. ================================= [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ] 4.5.0-rc2+ #4 Tainted: G O --------------------------------- inconsistent {RECLAIM_FS-ON-R} -> {IN-RECLAIM_FS-W} usage. kswapd0/543 [HC0[0]:SC0[0]:HE1:SE1] takes: (&xfs_nondir_ilock_class){++++-+}, at: xfs_ilock+0x177/0x200 [xfs] {RECLAIM_FS-ON-R} state was registered at: mark_held_locks+0x79/0xa0 lockdep_trace_alloc+0xb3/0x100 kmem_cache_alloc+0x33/0x230 kmem_zone_alloc+0x81/0x120 [xfs] xfs_refcountbt_init_cursor+0x3e/0xa0 [xfs] __xfs_refcount_find_shared+0x75/0x580 [xfs] xfs_refcount_find_shared+0x84/0xb0 [xfs] xfs_getbmap+0x608/0x8c0 [xfs] xfs_vn_fiemap+0xab/0xc0 [xfs] do_vfs_ioctl+0x498/0x670 SyS_ioctl+0x79/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x12/0x6f CPU0 ---- lock(&xfs_nondir_ilock_class); <Interrupt> lock(&xfs_nondir_ilock_class); *** DEADLOCK *** 3 locks held by kswapd0/543: stack backtrace: CPU: 0 PID: 543 Comm: kswapd0 Tainted: G O 4.5.0-rc2+ #4 Call Trace: lock_acquire+0xd8/0x1e0 down_write_nested+0x5e/0xc0 xfs_ilock+0x177/0x200 [xfs] xfs_reflink_cancel_cow_range+0x150/0x300 [xfs] xfs_fs_evict_inode+0xdc/0x1e0 [xfs] evict+0xc5/0x190 dispose_list+0x39/0x60 prune_icache_sb+0x4b/0x60 super_cache_scan+0x14f/0x1a0 shrink_slab.part.63.constprop.79+0x1e9/0x4e0 shrink_zone+0x15e/0x170 kswapd+0x4f1/0xa80 kthread+0xf2/0x110 ret_from_fork+0x3f/0x70 To quote Dave: "Ignoring whether reflink should be doing anything or not, that's a "xfs_refcountbt_init_cursor() gets called both outside and inside transactions" lockdep false positive case. The problem here is lockdep has seen this allocation from within a transaction, hence a GFP_NOFS allocation, and now it's seeing it in a GFP_KERNEL context. Also note that we have an active reference to this inode. So, because the reclaim annotations overload the interrupt level detections and it's seen the inode ilock been taken in reclaim ("interrupt") context, this triggers a reclaim context warning where it thinks it is unsafe to do this allocation in GFP_KERNEL context holding the inode ilock..." This sounds like a fundamental problem of the reclaim lock detection. It is really impossible to annotate such a special usecase IMHO unless the reclaim lockup detection is reworked completely. Until then it is much better to provide a way to add "I know what I am doing flag" and mark problematic places. This would prevent from abusing GFP_NOFS flag which has a runtime effect even on configurations which have lockdep disabled. Introduce __GFP_NOLOCKDEP flag which tells the lockdep gfp tracking to skip the current allocation request. While we are at it also make sure that the radix tree doesn't accidentaly override tags stored in the upper part of the gfp_mask.

When memory pressure is high, we free MADV_FREE pages. If the pages are not dirty in pte, the pages could be freed immediately. Otherwise we can't reclaim them. We put the pages back to anonumous LRU list (by setting SwapBacked flag) and the pages will be reclaimed in normal swapout way. We use normal page reclaim policy. Since MADV_FREE pages are put into inactive file list, such pages and inactive file pages are reclaimed according to their age. This is expected, because we don't want to reclaim too many MADV_FREE pages before used once pages.

madv()'s MADV_FREE indicate pages are 'lazyfree'. They are still anonymous pages, but they can be freed without pageout. To distinguish these from normal anonymous pages, we clear their SwapBacked flag. MADV_FREE pages could be freed without pageout, so they pretty much like used once file pages. For such pages, we'd like to reclaim them once there is memory pressure. Also it might be unfair reclaiming MADV_FREE pages always before used once file pages and we definitively want to reclaim the pages before other anonymous and file pages. To speed up MADV_FREE pages reclaim, we put the pages into LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list. The rationale is LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list is tiny nowadays and should be full of used once file pages. Reclaiming MADV_FREE pages will not have much interfere of anonymous and active file pages. And the inactive file pages and MADV_FREE pages will be reclaimed according to their age, so we don't reclaim too many MADV_FREE pages too. Putting the MADV_FREE pages into LRU_INACTIVE_FILE_LIST also means we can reclaim the pages without swap support. This idea is suggested by Johannes. This patch doesn't move MADV_FREE pages to LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list yet to avoid bisect failure, next patch will do it. The patch is based on Minchan's original patch.

Patch series "mm: fix some MADV_FREE issues", v5. We are trying to use MADV_FREE in jemalloc. Several issues are found. Without solving the issues, jemalloc can't use the MADV_FREE feature. - Doesn't support system without swap enabled. Because if swap is off, we can't or can't efficiently age anonymous pages. And since MADV_FREE pages are mixed with other anonymous pages, we can't reclaim MADV_FREE pages. In current implementation, MADV_FREE will fallback to MADV_DONTNEED without swap enabled. But in our environment, a lot of machines don't enable swap. This will prevent our setup using MADV_FREE. - Increases memory pressure. page reclaim bias file pages reclaim against anonymous pages. This doesn't make sense for MADV_FREE pages, because those pages could be freed easily and refilled with very slight penality. Even page reclaim doesn't bias file pages, there is still an issue, because MADV_FREE pages and other anonymous pages are mixed together. To reclaim a MADV_FREE page, we probably must scan a lot of other anonymous pages, which is inefficient. In our test, we usually see oom with MADV_FREE enabled and nothing without it. - Accounting. There are two accounting problems. We don't have a global accounting. If the system is abnormal, we don't know if it's a problem from MADV_FREE side. The other problem is RSS accounting. MADV_FREE pages are accounted as normal anon pages and reclaimed lazily, so application's RSS becomes bigger. This confuses our workloads. We have monitoring daemon running and if it finds applications' RSS becomes abnormal, the daemon will kill the applications even kernel can reclaim the memory easily. To address the first the two issues, we can either put MADV_FREE pages into a separate LRU list (Minchan's previous patches and V1 patches), or put them into LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list (suggested by Johannes). The patchset use the second idea. The reason is LRU_INACTIVE_FILE list is tiny nowadays and should be full of used once file pages. So we can still efficiently reclaim MADV_FREE pages there without interference with other anon and active file pages. Putting the pages into inactive file list also has an advantage which allows page reclaim to prioritize MADV_FREE pages and used once file pages. MADV_FREE pages are put into the lru list and clear SwapBacked flag, so PageAnon(page) && !PageSwapBacked(page) will indicate a MADV_FREE pages. These pages will directly freed without pageout if they are clean, otherwise normal swap will reclaim them. For the third issue, the previous post adds global accounting and a separate RSS count for MADV_FREE pages. The problem is we never get accurate accounting for MADV_FREE pages. The pages are mapped to userspace, can be dirtied without notice from kernel side. To get accurate accounting, we could write protect the page, but then there is extra page fault overhead, which people don't want to pay. Jemalloc guys have concerns about the inaccurate accounting, so this post drops the accounting patches temporarily. The info exported to /proc/pid/smaps for MADV_FREE pages are kept, which is the only place we can get accurate accounting right now. This patch (of 6): Johannes pointed out TTU_LZFREE is unnecessary. It's true because we always have the flag set if we want to do an unmap. For cases we don't do an unmap, the TTU_LZFREE part of code should never run. Also the TTU_UNMAP is unnecessary. If no other flags set (for example, TTU_MIGRATION), an unmap is implied. The patch includes Johannes's cleanup and dead TTU_ACTION macro removal code Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/4be3ea1bc56b26fd98a54d0a6f70bec63f6d8980.1487965799.git.shli@fb.com Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shli@fb.com> Suggested-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org> Acked-by: Hillf Danton <hillf.zj@alibaba-inc.com> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@techsingularity.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
