If the amount of resources allocated to a gen_pool exceeds 2^32 then the

The GCC randomize layout plugin can randomize the member offsets of
sensitive kernel data structures. To use this feature, certain
annotations and members are added to the structures which affect the
member offsets even if this plugin is not used.
All of these structures are completely randomized, except for task_struct
which leaves out some of its members. All the other members are wrapped
within an anonymous struct with the __randomize_layout attribute. This is
done using the randomized_struct_fields_start and
randomized_struct_fields_end defines.
When the plugin is disabled, the behaviour of this attribute can vary
based on the GCC version. For GCC 5.1+, this attribute maps to
__designated_init otherwise it is just an empty define but the anonymous
structure is still present. For other compilers, both
randomized_struct_fields_start and randomized_struct_fields_end default
to empty defines meaning the anonymous structure is not introduced at
all.
So, if a module compiled with Clang, such as a BPF program, needs to
access task_struct fields such as pid and comm, the offsets of these
members as recognized by Clang are different from those recognized by
modules compiled with GCC. If GCC 4.6+ is used to build the kernel,
this can be solved by introducing appropriate defines for Clang so that
the anonymous structure is seen when determining the offsets for the
members.

proc, coredump: add CoreDumping flag to /proc/pid/status
Right now there is no convenient way to check if a process is being
coredumped at the moment.
It might be necessary to recognize such state to prevent killing the
process and getting a broken coredump. Writing a large core might take
significant time, and the process is unresponsive during it, so it might
be killed by timeout, if another process is monitoring and
killing/restarting hanging tasks.
We're getting a significant number of corrupted coredump files on
machines in our fleet, just because processes are being killed by
timeout in the middle of the core writing process.
We do have a process health check, and some agent is responsible for
restarting processes which are not responding for health check requests.
Writing a large coredump to the disk can easily exceed the reasonable
timeout (especially on an overloaded machine).
This flag will allow the agent to distinguish processes which are being
coredumped, extend the timeout for them, and let them produce a full
coredump file.
To provide an ability to detect if a process is in the state of being
coredumped, we can expose a boolean CoreDumping flag in
/proc/pid/status.

Pageblock skip hints were added as a heuristic for compaction, which

the skip hints in addition to ignoring them.

resort attempt, but there's no reason not to set them when isolation
fails in such case. Thus, this patch splits off a new no_set_skip_hint

mm, compaction: extend pageblock_skip_persistent() to all compound pages
pageblock_skip_persistent() checks for HugeTLB pages of pageblock order.
When clearing pageblock skip bits for compaction, the bits are not
cleared for such pageblocks, because they cannot contain base pages
suitable for migration, nor free pages to use as migration targets.
This optimization can be simply extended to all compound pages of order
equal or larger than pageblock order, because migrating such pages (if
they support it) cannot help sub-pageblock fragmentation. This includes
THP's and also gigantic HugeTLB pages, which the current implementation
doesn't persistently skip due to a strict pageblock_order equality check
and not recognizing tail pages.
While THP pages are generally less "persistent" than HugeTLB, we can
still expect that if a THP exists at the point of
__reset_isolation_suitable(), it will exist also during the subsequent
compaction run. The time difference here could be actually smaller than
between a compaction run that sets a (non-persistent) skip bit on a THP,
and the next compaction run that observes it.

dm bufio: fix integer overflow when limiting maximum cache size
The default max_cache_size_bytes for dm-bufio is meant to be the lesser
of 25% of the size of the vmalloc area and 2% of the size of lowmem.
However, on 32-bit systems the intermediate result in the expression
overflows, causing the wrong result to be computed. For example, on a
32-bit system where the vmalloc area is 520093696 bytes, the result is 1174405 rather than the expected 130023424, which makes the maximum
cache size much too small (far less than 2% of lowmem). This causes
severe performance problems for dm-verity users on affected systems.
Fix this by using mult_frac() to correctly multiply by a percentage. Do
this for all places in dm-bufio that multiply by a percentage. Also
replace (VMALLOC_END - VMALLOC_START) with VMALLOC_TOTAL, which contrary
to the comment is now defined in include/linux/vmalloc.h.

dm: do not set 'discards_supported' in targets that do not need it
The DM target's 'discards_supported' flag is intended to act as an
override. Meaning, even if the underlying storage doesn't support
discards the DM target will.
Mike Snitzer [Tue, 14 Nov 2017 20:40:52 +0000 (15:40 -0500)]
dm: discard support requires all targets in a table support discards
A DM device with a mix of discard capabilities (due to some underlying
devices not having discard support) _should_ just return -EOPNOTSUPP for
the region of the device that doesn't support discards (even if only by
way of the underlying driver formally not supporting discards). BUT,
that does ask the underlying driver to handle something that it never
advertised support for. In doing so we're exposing users to the
potential for a underlying disk driver hanging if/when a discard is
issued a the device that is incapable and never claimed to support
discards.
Fix this by requiring that each DM target in a DM table provide discard
support as a prereq for a DM device to advertise support for discards.
This may cause some configurations that were happily supporting discards
(even in the face of a mix of discard support) to stop supporting
discards -- but the risk of users hitting driver hangs, and forced
reboots, outweighs supporting those fringe mixed discard
configurations.

Pull user namespace update from Eric Biederman:
"The only change that is production ready this round is the work to
increase the number of uid and gid mappings a user namespace can
support from 5 to 340.
This code was carefully benchmarked and it was confirmed that in the
existing cases the performance remains the same. In the worst case
with 340 mappings an cache cold stat times go from 158ns to 248ns.
That is noticable but still quite small, and only the people who are
doing crazy things pay the cost.
This work uncovered some documentation and cleanup opportunities in
the mapping code, and patches to make those cleanups and improve the
documentation will be coming in the next merge window"

Merge tag 'afs-next-20171113' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs
Pull AFS updates from David Howells:
"kAFS filesystem driver overhaul.
The major points of the overhaul are:
(1) Preliminary groundwork is laid for supporting network-namespacing
of kAFS. The remainder of the namespacing work requires some way
to pass namespace information to submounts triggered by an
automount. This requires something like the mount overhaul that's
in progress.
(2) sockaddr_rxrpc is used in preference to in_addr for holding
addresses internally and add support for talking to the YFS VL
server. With this, kAFS can do everything over IPv6 as well as
IPv4 if it's talking to servers that support it.
(3) Callback handling is overhauled to be generally passive rather
than active. 'Callbacks' are promises by the server to tell us
about data and metadata changes. Callbacks are now checked when
we next touch an inode rather than actively going and looking for
it where possible.
(4) File access permit caching is overhauled to store the caching
information per-inode rather than per-directory, shared over
subordinate files. Whilst older AFS servers only allow ACLs on
directories (shared to the files in that directory), newer AFS
servers break that restriction.
To improve memory usage and to make it easier to do mass-key
removal, permit combinations are cached and shared.
(5) Cell database management is overhauled to allow lighter locks to
be used and to make cell records autonomous state machines that
look after getting their own DNS records and cleaning themselves
up, in particular preventing races in acquiring and relinquishing
the fscache token for the cell.
(6) Volume caching is overhauled. The afs_vlocation record is got rid
of to simplify things and the superblock is now keyed on the cell
and the numeric volume ID only. The volume record is tied to a
superblock and normal superblock management is used to mediate
the lifetime of the volume fscache token.
(7) File server record caching is overhauled to make server records
independent of cells and volumes. A server can be in multiple
cells (in such a case, the administrator must make sure that the
VL services for all cells correctly reflect the volumes shared
between those cells).
Server records are now indexed using the UUID of the server
rather than the address since a server can have multiple
addresses.
(8) File server rotation is overhauled to handle VMOVED, VBUSY (and
similar), VOFFLINE and VNOVOL indications and to handle rotation
both of servers and addresses of those servers. The rotation will
also wait and retry if the server says it is busy.
(9) Data writeback is overhauled. Each inode no longer stores a list
of modified sections tagged with the key that authorised it in
favour of noting the modified region of a page in page->private
and storing a list of keys that made modifications in the inode.
This simplifies things and allows other keys to be used to
actually write to the server if a key that made a modification
becomes useless.
(10) Writable mmap() is implemented. This allows a kernel to be build
entirely on AFS.
Note that Pre AFS-3.4 servers are no longer supported, though this can
be added back if necessary (AFS-3.4 was released in 1998)"

Merge tag 'pinctrl-v4.15-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl
Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.15 kernel cycle:
Core:
- The pin control Kconfig entry PINCTRL is now turned into a
menuconfig option. This obviously has the implication of making the
subsystem menu visible in menuconfig. This is happening because of
two things:
(a) Intel have started to deploy and depend on pin controllers in
a way that is affecting users directly. This happens on the
highly integrated laptop chipsets named after geographical
places: baytrail, broxton, cannonlake, cedarfork, cherryview,
denverton, geminilake, lewisburg, merrifield, sunrisepoint...
It started a while back and now it is ever more evident that
this is crucial infrastructure for x86 laptops and not an
embedded obscurity anymore. Users need to be aware.
(b) Pin control expanders on I2C and SPI that are arch-agnostic.
Currently Semtech SX150X and Microchip MCP28x08 but more are
expected. Users will have to be able to configure these in
directly for their set-up.
- Just go and select GPIOLIB now that we made sure that GPIOLIB is a
very vanilla subsystem. Do not depend on it, if we need it, select
it.
- Exposing the pin control subsystem in menuconfig uncovered a bunch
of obscure bugs that are now hopefully fixed, all more or less
pertaining to Blackfin.
- Unified namespace for cross-calls between pin control and GPIO.
- New support for clock skew/delay generic DT bindings and generic
pin config options for this.
- Minor documentation improvements.
Various:
- The Renesas SH-PFC pin controller has evolved a lot. It seems
Renesas are churning out new SoCs by the minute.
- A bunch of non-critical fixes for the Rockchip driver.
- Improve the use of library functions instead of open coding.
- Support the MCP28018 variant in the MCP28x08 driver.
- Static constifying"

alloc_warn() and dump_header() have to explicitly handle NULL nodemask

mm: do not rely on preempt_count in print_vma_addr
The preempt count check on print_vma_addr has been added by commit e8bff74afbdb ("x86: fix "BUG: sleeping function called from invalid

count from preempt_conditional_sti because preempt_count check doesn't
work on non preemptive kernels by default.
The code has evolved though and commit d99e1bd175f4 ("x86/entry/traps:
Refactor preemption and interrupt flag handling") has replaced
preempt_conditional_sti by an explicit preempt_disable which is noop on
!PREEMPT so the check in print_vma_addr is broken.
Fix the issue by using trylock on mmap_sem rather than chacking the
preempt count. The allocation we are relying on has to be GFP_NOWAIT as
well. There is a chance that we won't dump the vma state if the lock is
contended or the memory short but this is acceptable outcome and much
less fragile than the not working preemption check or tricks around it.

mm: don't warn about allocations which stall for too long
Commit 63f53dea0c98 ("mm: warn about allocations which stall for too
long") was a great step for reducing possibility of silent hang up
problem caused by memory allocation stalls. But this commit reverts it,
for it is possible to trigger OOM lockup and/or soft lockups when many
threads concurrently called warn_alloc() (in order to warn about memory
allocation stalls) due to current implementation of printk(), and it is
difficult to obtain useful information due to limitation of synchronous
warning approach.
Current printk() implementation flushes all pending logs using the
context of a thread which called console_unlock(). printk() should be
able to flush all pending logs eventually unless somebody continues
appending to printk() buffer.
Since warn_alloc() started appending to printk() buffer while waiting
for oom_kill_process() to make forward progress when oom_kill_process()
is processing pending logs, it became possible for warn_alloc() to force
oom_kill_process() loop inside printk(). As a result, warn_alloc()
significantly increased possibility of preventing oom_kill_process()
from making forward progress.
---------- Pseudo code start ----------
Before warn_alloc() was introduced:
retry:
if (mutex_trylock(&oom_lock)) {
while (atomic_read(&printk_pending_logs) > 0) {
atomic_dec(&printk_pending_logs);
print_one_log();
}
// Send SIGKILL here.
mutex_unlock(&oom_lock)
}
goto retry;
After warn_alloc() was introduced:
retry:
if (mutex_trylock(&oom_lock)) {
while (atomic_read(&printk_pending_logs) > 0) {
atomic_dec(&printk_pending_logs);
print_one_log();
}
// Send SIGKILL here.
mutex_unlock(&oom_lock)
} else if (waited_for_10seconds()) {
atomic_inc(&printk_pending_logs);
}
goto retry;
---------- Pseudo code end ----------
Although waited_for_10seconds() becomes true once per 10 seconds,
unbounded number of threads can call waited_for_10seconds() at the same
time. Also, since threads doing waited_for_10seconds() keep doing
almost busy loop, the thread doing print_one_log() can use little CPU
resource. Therefore, this situation can be simplified like
when printk() is called faster than print_one_log() can process a log.
One of possible mitigation would be to introduce a new lock in order to
make sure that no other series of printk() (either oom_kill_process() or
warn_alloc()) can append to printk() buffer when one series of printk()
(either oom_kill_process() or warn_alloc()) is already in progress.
Such serialization will also help obtaining kernel messages in readable
form.
But this commit does not go that direction, for we don't want to
introduce a new lock dependency, and we unlikely be able to obtain
useful information even if we serialized oom_kill_process() and
warn_alloc().
Synchronous approach is prone to unexpected results (e.g. too late [1],
too frequent [2], overlooked [3]). As far as I know, warn_alloc() never
helped with providing information other than "something is going wrong".
I want to consider asynchronous approach which can obtain information
during stalls with possibly relevant threads (e.g. the owner of
oom_lock and kswapd-like threads) and serve as a trigger for actions
(e.g. turn on/off tracepoints, ask libvirt daemon to take a memory dump
of stalling KVM guest for diagnostic purpose).
This commit temporarily loses ability to report e.g. OOM lockup due to
unable to invoke the OOM killer due to !__GFP_FS allocation request.
But asynchronous approach will be able to detect such situation and emit
warning. Thus, let's remove warn_alloc().

allocations will shortcut per-migratetype free list checks for
ALLOC_HARDER allocations, and return true as long as there's free page
of any migratetype. The intention is that ALLOC_HARDER can allocate
from MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC free lists, while normal allocations can't.
However, as a side effect, the watermark check will then also return
true when there are pages only on the MIGRATE_ISOLATE list, or (prior to
CMA conversion to ZONE_MOVABLE) on the MIGRATE_CMA list. Since the
allocation cannot actually obtain isolated pages, and might not be able
to obtain CMA pages, this can result in a false positive.
The condition should be rare and perhaps the outcome is not a fatal one.
Still, it's better if the watermark check is correct. There also
shouldn't be a performance tradeoff here.

mm: remove __GFP_COLD
As the page free path makes no distinction between cache hot and cold
pages, there is no real useful ordering of pages in the free list that
allocation requests can take advantage of. Juding from the users of
__GFP_COLD, it is likely that a number of them are the result of copying
other sites instead of actually measuring the impact. Remove the
__GFP_COLD parameter which simplifies a number of paths in the page
allocator.
This is potentially controversial but bear in mind that the size of the
per-cpu pagelists versus modern cache sizes means that the whole per-cpu
list can often fit in the L3 cache. Hence, there is only a potential
benefit for microbenchmarks that alloc/free pages in a tight loop. It's
even worse when THP is taken into account which has little or no chance
of getting a cache-hot page as the per-cpu list is bypassed and the
zeroing of multiple pages will thrash the cache anyway.
The truncate microbenchmarks are not shown as this patch affects the
allocation path and not the free path. A page fault microbenchmark was
tested but it showed no sigificant difference which is not surprising
given that the __GFP_COLD branches are a miniscule percentage of the
fault path.

Every pagevec_init user claims the pages being released are hot even in

No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal. The

mm: only drain per-cpu pagevecs once per pagevec usage
When a pagevec is initialised on the stack, it is generally used
multiple times over a range of pages, looking up entries and then
releasing them. On each pagevec_release, the per-cpu deferred LRU
pagevecs are drained on the grounds the page being released may be on
those queues and the pages may be cache hot. In many cases only the
first drain is necessary as it's unlikely that the range of pages being
walked is racing against LRU addition. Even if there is such a race,
the impact is marginal where as constantly redraining the lru pagevecs
costs.
This patch ensures that pagevec is only drained once in a given
lifecycle without increasing the cache footprint of the pagevec
structure. Only sparsetruncate tiny is shown here as large files have
many exceptional entries and calls pagecache_release less frequently.

mm, truncate: remove all exceptional entries from pagevec under one lock
During truncate each entry in a pagevec is checked to see if it is an
exceptional entry and if so, the shadow entry is cleaned up. This is
potentially expensive as multiple entries for a mapping locks/unlocks
the tree lock. This batches the operation such that any exceptional
entries removed from a pagevec only acquire the mapping tree lock once.
The corner case where this is more expensive is where there is only one
exceptional entry but this is unlikely due to temporal locality and how
it affects LRU ordering. Note that for truncations of small files
created recently, this patch should show no gain because it only batches
the handling of exceptional entries.

mm, truncate: do not check mapping for every page being truncated
During truncation, the mapping has already been checked for shmem and
dax so it's known that workingset_update_node is required.
This patch avoids the checks on mapping for each page being truncated.
In all other cases, a lookup helper is used to determine if
workingset_update_node() needs to be called. The one danger is that the
API is slightly harder to use as calling workingset_update_node directly
without checking for dax or shmem mappings could lead to surprises.
However, the API rarely needs to be used and hopefully the comment is
enough to give people the hint.

As you'd expect, the gain is marginal but it can be detected. The
differences in bonnie are all within the noise which is not surprising
given the impact on the microbenchmark.
radix_tree_update_node_t is a callback for some radix operations that
optionally passes in a private field. The only user of the callback is
workingset_update_node and as it no longer requires a mapping, the
private field is removed.

mm, page_alloc: enable/disable IRQs once when freeing a list of pages
Patch series "Follow-up for speed up page cache truncation", v2.
This series is a follow-on for Jan Kara's series "Speed up page cache
truncation" series. We both ended up looking at the same problem but
saw different problems based on the same data. This series builds upon
his work.
A variety of workloads were compared on four separate machines but each
machine showed gains albeit at different levels. Minimally, some of the
differences are due to NUMA where truncating data from a remote node is
slower than a local node. The workloads checked were
o sparse truncate microbenchmark, tiny
o sparse truncate microbenchmark, large
o reaim-io disk workfile
o dbench4 (modified by mmtests to produce more stable results)
o filebench varmail configuration for small memory size
o bonnie, directory operations, working set size 2*RAM
reaim-io, dbench and filebench all showed minor gains. Truncation does
not dominate those workloads but were tested to ensure no other
regressions. They will not be reported further.
The sparse truncate microbench was written by Jan. It creates a number
of files and then times how long it takes to truncate each one. The
"tiny" configuraiton creates a number of files that easily fits in
memory and times how long it takes to truncate files with page cache.
The large configuration uses enough files to have data that is twice the
size of memory and so timings there include truncating page cache and
working set shadow entries in the radix tree.
Patches 1-4 are the most relevant parts of this series. Patches 5-8 are
optional as they are deleting code that is essentially useless but has a
negligible performance impact.
The changelogs have more information on performance but just for bonnie
delete options, the main comparison is
Jan's series is the baseline and the vanilla kernel is 12% slower where
as this series on top gains another 11%. This is from a different
machine than the data in the changelogs but the detailed data was not
collected as there was no substantial change in v2.
This patch (of 8):
Freeing a list of pages current enables/disables IRQs for each page
freed. This patch splits freeing a list of pages into two operations --
preparing the pages for freeing and the actual freeing. This is a
tradeoff - we're taking two passes of the list to free in exchange for
avoiding multiple enable/disable of IRQs.

mm: batch radix tree operations when truncating pages
Currently we remove pages from the radix tree one by one. To speed up
page cache truncation, lock several pages at once and free them in one
go. This allows us to batch radix tree operations in a more efficient
way and also save round-trips on mapping->tree_lock. As a result we
gain about 20% speed improvement in page cache truncation.
Data from a simple benchmark timing 10000 truncates of 1024 pages (on
ext4 on ramdisk but the filesystem is barely visible in the profiles).
The range shows 1% and 95% percentiles of the measured times:
