It's not possible to read the process umask without also modifying it,
which is what umask(2) does. A library cannot read umask safely,
especially if the main program might be multithreaded.
Add a new status line ("Umask") in /proc/<PID>/status. It contains the
file mode creation mask (umask) in octal. It is only shown for tasks
which have task->fs.
This patch is adapted from one originally written by Pierre Carrier.
The use case is that we have endless trouble with people setting weird
umask() values (usually on the grounds of "security"), and then
everything breaking. I'm on the hook to fix these. We'd like to add
debugging to our program so we can dump out the umask in debug reports.
Previous versions of the patch used a syscall so you could only read
your own umask. That's all I need. However there was quite a lot of
push-back from those, so this new version exports it in /proc.

debug_stat sysfs is read-only and represents various debugging data that
zram developers may need. This file is not meant to be used by anyone
else: its content is not documented and will change any time w/o any
notice. Therefore, the output of debug_stat file contains a version
string. To avoid any confusion, we will increase the version number
every time we modify the output.
At the moment this file exports only one value -- the number of
re-compressions, IOW, the number of times compression fast path has
failed. This stat is temporary any will be useful in case if any
per-cpu compression streams regressions will be reported.

Remove the internal part of max_comp_streams interface, since we
switched to per-cpu streams. We will keep RW max_comp_streams attr
around, because:
a) we may (silently) switch back to idle compression streams list and
don't want to disturb user space
b) max_comp_streams attr must wait for the next 'lay off cycle'; we
give user space 2 years to adjust before we remove/downgrade the attr,
and there are already several attrs scheduled for removal in 4.11, so
it's too late for max_comp_streams.
This slightly change a user visible behaviour:
- First, reading from max_comp_stream file now will always return the
number of online CPUs.
- Second, writing to max_comp_stream will not take any effect.

This patch introduces z3fold, a special purpose allocator for storing
compressed pages. It is designed to store up to three compressed pages
per physical page. It is a ZBUD derivative which allows for higher
compression ratio keeping the simplicity and determinism of its
predecessor.
This patch comes as a follow-up to the discussions at the Embedded Linux
Conference in San-Diego related to the talk [1]. The outcome of these
discussions was that it would be good to have a compressed page
allocator as stable and deterministic as zbud with with higher
compression ratio.
To keep the determinism and simplicity, z3fold, just like zbud, always
stores an integral number of compressed pages per page, but it can store
up to 3 pages unlike zbud which can store at most 2. Therefore the
compression ratio goes to around 2.6x while zbud's one is around 1.7x.
The patch is based on the latest linux.git tree.
This version has been updated after testing on various simulators (e.g.
ARM Versatile Express, MIPS Malta, x86_64/Haswell) and basing on
comments from Dan Streetman [3].

This patchset continues the work I started with commit 31bc3858ea3e
("memory-hotplug: add automatic onlining policy for the newly added
memory").
Initially I was going to stop there and bring the policy setting logic
to userspace. I met two issues on this way:
1) It is possible to have memory hotplugged at boot (e.g. with QEMU).
These blocks stay offlined if we turn the onlining policy on by
userspace.
2) My attempt to bring this policy setting to systemd failed, systemd
maintainers suggest to change the default in kernel or ... to use
tmpfiles.d to alter the policy (which looks like a hack to me):
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/2938
Here I suggest to add a config option to set the default value for the
policy and a kernel command line parameter to make the override.
This patch (of 2):
Introduce config option to set the default value for memory hotplug
onlining policy (/sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks). The
reason one would want to turn this option on are to have early onlining
for hotpluggable memory available at boot and to not require any
userspace actions to make memory hotplug work.

Provide /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh to force an immediate update of
per-cpu into global vmstats: useful to avoid a sleep(2) or whatever
before checking counts when testing. Originally added to work around a
bug which left counts stranded indefinitely on a cpu going idle (an
inaccuracy magnified when small below-batch numbers represent "huge"
amounts of memory), but I believe that bug is now fixed: nonetheless,
this is still a useful knob.
Its schedule_on_each_cpu() is probably too expensive just to fold into
reading /proc/meminfo itself: give this mode 0600 to prevent abuse.
Allow a write or a read to do the same: nothing to read, but "grep -h
Shmem /proc/sys/vm/stat_refresh /proc/meminfo" is convenient. Oh, and
since global_page_state() itself is careful to disguise any underflow as
0, hack in an "Invalid argument" and pr_warn() if a counter is negative
after the refresh - this helped to fix a misaccounting of
NR_ISOLATED_FILE in my migration code.
But on recent kernels, I find that NR_ALLOC_BATCH and NR_PAGES_SCANNED
often go negative some of the time. I have not yet worked out why, but
have no evidence that it's actually harmful. Punt for the moment by
just ignoring the anomaly on those.

Many developers already know that field for reference count of the
struct page is _count and atomic type. They would try to handle it
directly and this could break the purpose of page reference count
tracepoint. To prevent direct _count modification, this patch rename it
to _refcount and add warning message on the code. After that, developer
who need to handle reference count will find that field should not be
accessed directly.

This avoids deadlocks/workarounds when the mux itself needs i2c

media layer could be eliminated. Also, Peter stepped up as the i2c
mux maintainer and will keep an eye on these changes.

Pull ARC updates from Vineet Gupta:
"We have a relatively big changeset for ARC for 4.7.
The highlight is support for EZChip (now Mellanox) NPS-400 network
processor, a 400-Gb throughput C-programmable packet processor based
on ARC700 cores from Synopsys. See
http://www.mellanox.com/related-docs/prod_npu/PB_NPS-400.pdf
Also present are irqchip and clocksource drivers for NPS as agreed
with respective maintainers to go via ARC tree due to an soc header
dependency. I have the needed ACKs from Jason, Marc, Daniel. You
might run into a trivial merge conflict in drivers/irqchip/*
This EZChip platform support required some deep changes in ARC
architecture code and also opportunity to cleanup past sins (legacy
irq domains, missing irq domain lookup, hard coded timer irqs...)
Summary:
- Support for EZChip (now Mellanox) NPS-400 Network processor based
on ARC700

Pull security subsystem updates from James Morris:
"Highlights:
- A new LSM, "LoadPin", from Kees Cook is added, which allows forcing
of modules and firmware to be loaded from a specific device (this
is from ChromeOS, where the device as a whole is verified
cryptographically via dm-verity).
This is disabled by default but can be configured to be enabled by
default (don't do this if you don't know what you're doing).
- Keys: allow authentication data to be stored in an asymmetric key.
Lots of general fixes and updates.
- SELinux: add restrictions for loading of kernel modules via
finit_module(). Distinguish non-init user namespace capability
checks. Apply execstack check on thread stacks"

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"This includes two new updates for the ftrace infrastructure.
- With the changing of the code for filtering events by pid, from a
list of pids to a bitmask, we can now easily implement following
forks. With a new tracing option "event-fork" which, when set,
will have tasks with pids in set_event_pid, when they fork, to have
their child pids added to set_event_pid and the child will be
traced as well.
Note, if "event-fork" is set and a task with its pid in
set_event_pid exits, its pid will be removed from set_event_pid
- The addition of Tom Zanussi's hist triggers. This includes a very
thorough documentatino on how to use the hist triggers with events.
This introduces a quick and easy way to get histogram data from
events and their fields.
Some other cleanups and updates were added as well. Like Masami
Hiramatsu added test cases for the event trigger and hist triggers.
Also I added a speed up of filtering by using a temp buffer when
filters are set"

Pull ARM 64-bit DT updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"We continue ramping up platform support for 64-bit ARM machines, with
111 individual non-merge changesets touching 21 platforms.
The LG1312 platform is completely new and is the first ARM platform by
LG that we support in the mainline kernel. Two other SoCs got added
that are updated versions of existing SoC families, so the port mainly
consists of new dts files:
- The Hisilicon Hip06/D03 is the latest server platform from
Huawei/Hisilicon, and follows the Hip05/D02 platform.
- Rockchip RK3399 follows the 32-bit RK3288 that is popular in
low-end Chromebooks and the 64-bit RK3368 that is mainly found in
chinese Android TV boxes.
The 96Boards HiKey based on the Hisilicon Hi6220 (Kirin 620) gets a
long-awaited overhaul with a lot of devices enabled in the DT, so it
should be much more usable with a mainline kernel now. See also
https://plus.google.com/111524780435806926688/posts/PeGb2VsNhJd

- Hardkernel Odroid C2 Based on Amlogic Meson GXBB (S905)
- Geekbuying GeekBox based on Rockchip RK3368

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc
Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"We get support for three new 32-bit SoC platforms this time.
The amount of changes in arch/arm for any of them is miniscule, as all
the interesting code is in device driver subsystems (irqchip, clk,
pinctrl, ...) these days. I'm listing them here, as the addition of
the Kconfig statement is the main relevant milestone for a new
platform. In each case, some drivers are are shared with existing
platforms, while other drivers are added for v4.7 as well, or come in
a later release.
- The Aspeed platform is probably the most interesting one, this is
what most whitebox servers use as their baseboard management
controller. We get support for the very common ast2400 and ast2500
SoCs. The OpenBMC project focuses on this chip, and the LWN
article about their ELC 2016 presentation at
https://lwn.net/Articles/683320/
triggered the submission, but the code comes from IBM's OpenPOWER
team rather than the team at Facebook. There are still a lot more
drivers that need to get added over time, and I hope both teams can
work together on that.
- OXNAS is an old platform for Network Attached Storage devices from
Oxford Semiconductor. There are models with ARM10 (!) and
ARM11MPCore cores, but for now, we only support the original ARM9
based versions. The product lineup was subsequently part of PLX,
Avago and now the new Broadcom Ltd.
https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/hardware/soc/soc.oxnas
has some more information.
- V2M-MPS2 is a prototyping platform from ARM for their Cortex-M
cores and is related to the existing Realview / Versatile Express
lineup, but without MMU.
We now support various NOMMU platforms, so adding a new one is
fairly straightforward.
http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.100112_0100_03_en/
has detailed information about the platform.
Other noteworthy updates:
- Work on LPC32xx has resumed, and Vladimir Zapolskiy and Sylvain
Lemieux are now maintaining the platform.
This is an older ARM9 based platform from NXP (not Freescale), but
it remains in use in embedded markets.
- Kevin Hilman is now co-maintaining the Amlogic Meson platform for
both 32-bit and 64-bit ARM, and started contributing some patches.
- As is often the case, work on the OMAP platforms makes up the bulk
of the actual SoC code changes in arch/arm, but there isn't a lot
of that either"

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for kernel cycle v4.7:
Core infrastructural changes:
- Support for natively single-ended GPIO driver stages.
This means that if the hardware has registers to configure open
drain or open source configuration, we use that rather than (as we
did before) try to emulate it by switching the line to an input to
get high impedance.
This is also documented throughly in Documentation/gpio/driver.txt
for those of you who did not understand one word of what I just
wrote.
- Start to do away with the unnecessarily complex and unitelligible
ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB and ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB, another
evolutional artifact from the time when the GPIO subsystem was
unmaintained.
Archs can now just select GPIOLIB and be done with it, cleanups to
arches will trickle in for the next kernel. Some minor archs ACKed
the changes immediately so these are included in this pull request.
- Advancing the use of the data pointer inside the GPIO device for
storing driver data by switching the PowerPC, Super-H Unicore and
a few other subarches or subsystem drivers in ALSA SoC, Input,
serial, SSB, staging etc to use it.
- The initialization now reads the input/output state of the GPIO
lines, so that each GPIO descriptor knows - if this callback is
implemented - whether the line is input or output. This also
reflects nicely in userspace "lsgpio".
- It is now possible to name GPIO producer names, line names, from
the device tree. (Platform data has been supported for a while).
I bet we will get a similar mechanism for ACPI one of those days.
This makes is possible to get sensible producer names for e.g.
GPIO rails in "lsgpio" in userspace.
New drivers:
- New driver for the Loongson1.
- The XLP driver now supports Broadcom Vulcan ARM64.
- The IT87 driver now supports IT8620 and IT8628.
- The PCA953X driver now supports Galileo Gen2.
Driver improvements:
- MCP23S08 was switched to use the gpiolib irqchip helpers and now
also suppors level-triggered interrupts.
- 74x164 and RCAR now supports the .set_multiple() callback
- AMDPT was converted to use generic GPIO.
- TC3589x, TPS65218, SX150X, F7188X, MENZ127, VX855, WM831X, WM8994
support the new single ended callback for open drain and in some
cases open source.
- Implement the .get_direction() callback for a few more drivers like
PL061, Xgene.
Cleanups:
- Paul Gortmaker combed through the drivers and de-modularized those
who are not really modules.
- Move the GPIO poweroff DT bindings to the power subdir where they
belong.
- Rename gpio-generic.c to gpio-mmio.c, which is much more to the
point. That's what it is handling, nothing more, nothing less"

Pull parallel filesystem directory handling update from Al Viro.
This is the main parallel directory work by Al that makes the vfs layer
able to do lookup and readdir in parallel within a single directory.
That's a big change, since this used to be all protected by the
directory inode mutex.
The inode mutex is replaced by an rwsem, and serialization of lookups of
a single name is done by a "in-progress" dentry marker.
The series begins with xattr cleanups, and then ends with switching
filesystems over to actually doing the readdir in parallel (switching to
the "iterate_shared()" that only takes the read lock).
A more detailed explanation of the process from Al Viro:
"The xattr work starts with some acl fixes, then switches ->getxattr to
passing inode and dentry separately. This is the point where the
things start to get tricky - that got merged into the very beginning
of the -rc3-based #work.lookups, to allow untangling the
security_d_instantiate() mess. The xattr work itself proceeds to
switch a lot of filesystems to generic_...xattr(); no complications
there.
After that initial xattr work, the series then does the following:
- untangle security_d_instantiate()
- convert a bunch of open-coded lookup_one_len_unlocked() to calls of
that thing; one such place (in overlayfs) actually yields a trivial
conflict with overlayfs fixes later in the cycle - overlayfs ended
up switching to a variant of lookup_one_len_unlocked() sans the
permission checks. I would've dropped that commit (it gets
overridden on merge from #ovl-fixes in #for-next; proper resolution
is to use the variant in mainline fs/overlayfs/super.c), but I
didn't want to rebase the damn thing - it was fairly late in the
cycle...
- some filesystems had managed to depend on lookup/lookup exclusion
for *fs-internal* data structures in a way that would break if we
relaxed the VFS exclusion. Fixing hadn't been hard, fortunately.
- core of that series - parallel lookup machinery, replacing
->i_mutex with rwsem, making lookup_slow() take it only shared. At
that point lookups happen in parallel; lookups on the same name
wait for the in-progress one to be done with that dentry.
Surprisingly little code, at that - almost all of it is in
fs/dcache.c, with fs/namei.c changes limited to lookup_slow() -
making it use the new primitive and actually switching to locking
shared.
- parallel readdir stuff - first of all, we provide the exclusion on
per-struct file basis, same as we do for read() vs lseek() for
regular files. That takes care of most of the needed exclusion in
readdir/readdir; however, these guys are trickier than lookups, so
I went for switching them one-by-one. To do that, a new method
'->iterate_shared()' is added and filesystems are switched to it
as they are either confirmed to be OK with shared lock on directory
or fixed to be OK with that. I hope to kill the original method
come next cycle (almost all in-tree filesystems are switched
already), but it's still not quite finished.
- several filesystems get switched to parallel readdir. The
interesting part here is dealing with dcache preseeding by readdir;
that needs minor adjustment to be safe with directory locked only
shared.
Most of the filesystems doing that got switched to in those
commits. Important exception: NFS. Turns out that NFS folks, with
their, er, insistence on VFS getting the fuck out of the way of the
Smart Filesystem Code That Knows How And What To Lock(tm) have
grown the locking of their own. They had their own homegrown
rwsem, with lookup/readdir/atomic_open being *writers* (sillyunlink
is the reader there). Of course, with VFS getting the fuck out of
the way, as requested, the actual smarts of the smart filesystem
code etc. had become exposed...
- do_last/lookup_open/atomic_open cleanups. As the result, open()
without O_CREAT locks the directory only shared. Including the
->atomic_open() case. Backmerge from #for-linus in the middle of
that - atomic_open() fix got brought in.
- then comes NFS switch to saner (VFS-based ;-) locking, killing the
homegrown "lookup and readdir are writers" kinda-sorta rwsem. All
exclusion for sillyunlink/lookup is done by the parallel lookups
mechanism. Exclusion between sillyunlink and rmdir is a real rwsem
now - rmdir being the writer.
Result: NFS lookups/readdirs/O_CREAT-less opens happen in parallel
now.
- the rest of the series consists of switching a lot of filesystems
to parallel readdir; in a lot of cases ->llseek() gets simplified
as well. One backmerge in there (again, #for-linus - rockridge
fix)"
