2016-01-15powerpc, thp: remove infrastructure for handling splitting PMDsKirill A. Shutemov
With new refcounting we don't need to mark PMDs splitting. Let's drop code to handle this. pmdp_splitting_flush() is not needed too: on splitting PMD we will do pmdp_clear_flush() + set_pte_at(). pmdp_clear_flush() will do IPI as needed for fast_gup.

2016-01-15mm: drop tail page refcountingKirill A. Shutemov
Tail page refcounting is utterly complicated and painful to support. It uses ->_mapcount on tail pages to store how many times this page is pinned. get_page() bumps ->_mapcount on tail page in addition to ->_count on head. This information is required by split_huge_page() to be able to distribute pins from head of compound page to tails during the split. We will need ->_mapcount to account PTE mappings of subpages of the compound page. We eliminate need in current meaning of ->_mapcount in tail pages by forbidding split entirely if the page is pinned. The only user of tail page refcounting is THP which is marked BROKEN for now. Let's drop all this mess. It makes get_page() and put_page() much simpler. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2016-01-15thp: rename split_huge_page_pmd() to split_huge_pmd()Kirill A. Shutemov
We are going to decouple splitting THP PMD from splitting underlying compound page. This patch renames split_huge_page_pmd*() functions to split_huge_pmd*() to reflect the fact that it doesn't imply page splitting, only PMD. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.

2016-01-14kmemcg: account certain kmem allocations to memcgVladimir Davydov
Mark those kmem allocations that are known to be easily triggered from userspace as __GFP_ACCOUNT/SLAB_ACCOUNT, which makes them accounted to memcg. For the list, see below: - threadinfo - task_struct - task_delay_info - pid - cred - mm_struct - vm_area_struct and vm_region (nommu) - anon_vma and anon_vma_chain - signal_struct - sighand_struct - fs_struct - files_struct - fdtable and fdtable->full_fds_bits - dentry and external_name - inode for all filesystems. This is the most tedious part, because most filesystems overwrite the alloc_inode method. The list is far from complete, so feel free to add more objects. Nevertheless, it should be close to "account everything" approach and keep most workloads within bounds. Malevolent users will be able to breach the limit, but this was possible even with the former "account everything" approach (simply because it did not account everything in fact).

The 'for-4.5/block- dax' topic branch was rebased over the weekend to drop the "block device end-of-life" rework that Al would like to see re-implemented with a notifier, and to address bug reports against the badblocks integration. There is pending feedback against "libnvdimm: Add a poison list and export badblocks" received last week. Linda identified some localized fixups that we will handle incrementally. Summary: - Media error handling: The 'badblocks' implementation that originated in md-raid is up-levelled to a generic capability of a block device. This initial implementation is limited to being consulted in the pmem block-i/o path. Later, 'badblocks' will be consulted when creating dax mappings. - Raw block device dax: For virtualization and other cases that want large contiguous mappings of persistent memory, add the capability to dax-mmap a block device directly. - Increased /dev/mem restrictions: Add an option to treat all io-memory as IORESOURCE_EXCLUSIVE, i.e. disable /dev/mem access while a driver is actively using an address range. This behavior is controlled via the new CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM option and can be overridden by the existing "iomem=relaxed" kernel command line option. - Miscellaneous fixes include a 'pfn'-device huge page alignment fix, block device shutdown crash fix, and other small libnvdimm fixes" * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (32 commits) block: kill disk_{check|set|clear|alloc}_badblocks libnvdimm, pmem: nvdimm_read_bytes() badblocks support pmem, dax: disable dax in the presence of bad blocks pmem: fail io-requests to known bad blocks libnvdimm: convert to statically allocated badblocks libnvdimm: don't fail init for full badblocks list block, badblocks: introduce devm_init_badblocks block: clarify badblocks lifetime badblocks: rename badblocks_free to badblocks_exit libnvdimm, pmem: move definition of nvdimm_namespace_add_poison to nd.h libnvdimm: Add a poison list and export badblocks nfit_test: Enable DSMs for all test NFITs md: convert to use the generic badblocks code block: Add badblock management for gendisks badblocks: Add core badblock management code block: fix del_gendisk() vs blkdev_ioctl crash block: enable dax for raw block devices block: introduce bdev_file_inode() restrict /dev/mem to idle io memory ranges arch: consolidate CONFIG_STRICT_DEVM in lib/Kconfig.debug ...

2016-01-13powerpc/module: Handle R_PPC64_ENTRY relocationsUlrich Weigand
GCC 6 will include changes to generated code with -mcmodel=large, which is used to build kernel modules on powerpc64le. This was necessary because the large model is supposed to allow arbitrary sizes and locations of the code and data sections, but the ELFv2 global entry point prolog still made the unconditional assumption that the TOC associated with any particular function can be found within 2 GB of the function entry point: func: addis r2,r12,(.TOC.-func)@ha addi r2,r2,(.TOC.-func)@l .localentry func, .-func To remove this assumption, GCC will now generate instead this global entry point prolog sequence when using -mcmodel=large: .quad .TOC.-func func: .reloc ., R_PPC64_ENTRY ld r2, -8(r12) add r2, r2, r12 .localentry func, .-func The new .reloc triggers an optimization in the linker that will replace this new prolog with the original code (see above) if the linker determines that the distance between .TOC. and func is in range after all. Since this new relocation is now present in module object files, the kernel module loader is required to handle them too. This patch adds support for the new relocation and implements the same optimization done by the GNU linker.

With commit b92b8b35a2e ("locking/arch: Rename set_mb() to smp_store_mb()") it was made clear that the context of this call (and thus set_mb) is strictly for CPU ordering, as opposed to IO. As such all archs should use the smp variant of mb(), respecting the semantics and saving a mandatory barrier on UP.

2016-01-12powerpc/mm: fix _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY breaking swapoffHugh Dickins
Swapoff after swapping hangs on the G5, when CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE=y but CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY is not set. That's because the non-zero _PAGE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit, added by CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_SOFT_DIRTY=y, is not discounted when CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY is not set: so swap ptes cannot be recognized. (I suspect that the peculiar dependence of HAVE_ARCH_SOFT_DIRTY on CHECKPOINT_RESTORE in arch/powerpc/Kconfig comes from an incomplete attempt to solve this problem.) It's true that the relationship between CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_SOFT_DIRTY and and CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY is too confusing, and it's true that swapoff should be made more robust; but nevertheless, fix up the powerpc ifdefs as x86_64 and s390 (which met the same problem) have them, defining the bits as 0 if CONFIG_MEM_SOFT_DIRTY is not set.

2016-01-12powerpc/mm: Fix _PAGE_PTE breaking swapoffAneesh Kumar K.V
Core kernel expects swp_entry_t to consist of only swap type and swap offset. We should not leak pte bits into swp_entry_t. This breaks swapoff which use the swap type and offset to build a swp_entry_t and later compare that to the swp_entry_t obtained from linux page table pte. Leaking pte bits into swp_entry_t breaks that comparison and results in us looping in try_to_unuse. The stack trace can be anywhere below try_to_unuse() in mm/swapfile.c, since swapoff is circling around and around that function, reading from each used swap block into a page, then trying to find where that page belongs, looking at every non-file pte of every mm that ever swapped.

The emulated NVLink PCI devices share the same IODA2 TCE tables but only support a single TVT (instead of the normal two for PCI devices). This requires the kernel to manually replace windows with either the bypass or non-bypass window depending on what the driver has requested. Unfortunately an incorrect optimisation was made in pnv_pci_ioda_dma_set_mask() which caused updating of some NPU device PEs to be skipped in certain configurations due to an incorrect assumption that a NULL peer PE in the array indicated there were no more peers present. This patch fixes the problem by ensuring all peer PEs are updated.

2016-01-11powerpc: Implement save_stack_trace_regs() to enable kprobe stack tracingSteven Rostedt
It has come to my attention that kprobe event stack tracing does not work on powerpc. You can see with the following: # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo stacktrace > trace_options # echo 'p kfree' > kprobe_events # echo 1 > events/kprobes/enable Will print the following warning: save_stack_trace_regs() not implemented yet. Although save_stack_trace() (which normal event stack traces use) is implemented, save_stack_trace_regs() which kprobe events use is not. This is a cheap attempt to implement that function. Note, This may have issues if a task tries to get a stack trace from another task with its regs, because it just passes in "current" to save_context_stack(). But this does solve the issue with stack tracing kprobe events.

2015-12-27powerpc/powernv: Add a kmsg_dumper that flushes console output on panicRussell Currey
On BMC machines, console output is controlled by the OPAL firmware and is only flushed when its pollers are called. When the kernel is in a panic state, it no longer calls these pollers and thus console output does not completely flush, causing some output from the panic to be lost. Output is only actually lost when the kernel is configured to not power off or reboot after panic (i.e. CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT is set to 0) since OPAL flushes the console buffer as part of its power down routines. Before this patch, however, only partial output would be printed during the timeout wait. This patch adds a new kmsg_dumper which gets called at panic time to ensure panic output is not lost. It accomplishes this by calling OPAL_CONSOLE_FLUSH in the OPAL API, and if that is not available, the pollers are called enough times to (hopefully) completely flush the buffer. The flushing mechanism will only affect output printed at and before the kmsg_dump call in kernel/panic.c:panic(). As such, the "end Kernel panic" message may still be truncated as follows: >Call Trace: >[c000000f1f603b00] [c0000000008e9458] dump_stack+0x90/0xbc (unreliable) >[c000000f1f603b30] [c0000000008e7e78] panic+0xf8/0x2c4 >[c000000f1f603bc0] [c000000000be4860] mount_block_root+0x288/0x33c >[c000000f1f603c80] [c000000000be4d14] prepare_namespace+0x1f4/0x254 >[c000000f1f603d00] [c000000000be43e8] kernel_init_freeable+0x318/0x350 >[c000000f1f603dc0] [c00000000000bd74] kernel_init+0x24/0x130 >[c000000f1f603e30] [c0000000000095b0] ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xac >---[ end Kernel panic - not This functionality is implemented as a kmsg_dumper as it seems to be the most sensible way to introduce platform-specific functionality to the panic function.
