This sorts the actual field names too, potentially causing even more
chaos and confusion at merge time if you have edited the MAINTAINERS
file. But the end result is a more consistent layout, and hopefully
it's a one-time pain minimized by doing this just before the -rc1
release.
They are all supposed to be sorted, but people who add new entries don't
always know the alphabet. Plus sometimes the entry names get edited,
and people don't then re-order the entry.

relatively few patches in -next that touch this, and doing it just

fs/filesystems.c: downgrade user-reachable WARN_ONCE() to pr_warn_once()
After request_module(), nothing is stopping the module from being
unloaded until someone takes a reference to it via try_get_module().
The WARN_ONCE() in get_fs_type() is thus user-reachable, via userspace
running 'rmmod' concurrently.
Since WARN_ONCE() is for kernel bugs only, not for user-reachable
situations, downgrade this warning to pr_warn_once().
Keep it printed once only, since the intent of this warning is to detect
a bug in modprobe at boot time. Printing the warning more than once
wouldn't really provide any useful extra information.

kernel code when module autoloading had been completely disabled via
'echo > /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe'.
It also addresses the issues raised on the original thread
(https://lkml.kernel.org/lkml/20200310223731.126894-1-ebiggers@kernel.org/T/#u)
bydocumenting the modprobe sysctl, adding a self-test for the empty path
case, and downgrading a user-reachable WARN_ONCE().
This patch (of 4):
It's long been possible to disable kernel module autoloading completely
(while still allowing manual module insertion) by setting
/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe to the empty string.
This can be preferable to setting it to a nonexistent file since it
avoids the overhead of an attempted execve(), avoids potential
deadlocks, and avoids the call to security_kernel_module_request() and
thus on SELinux-based systems eliminates the need to write SELinux rules
to dontaudit module_request.
However, when module autoloading is disabled in this way,
request_module() returns 0. This is broken because callers expect 0 to
mean that the module was successfully loaded.
Apparently this was never noticed because this method of disabling
module autoloading isn't used much, and also most callers don't use the
return value of request_module() since it's always necessary to check
whether the module registered its functionality or not anyway.
But improperly returning 0 can indeed confuse a few callers, for example
get_fs_type() in fs/filesystems.c where it causes a WARNING to be hit:
if (!fs && (request_module("fs-%.*s", len, name) == 0)) {
fs = __get_fs_type(name, len);
WARN_ONCE(!fs, "request_module fs-%.*s succeeded, but still no fs?\n", len, name);
}
This is easily reproduced with:
echo > /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe
mount -t NONEXISTENT none /
It causes:
request_module fs-NONEXISTENT succeeded, but still no fs?
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1106 at fs/filesystems.c:275 get_fs_type+0xd6/0xf0
[...]
This should actually use pr_warn_once() rather than WARN_ONCE(), since
it's also user-reachable if userspace immediately unloads the module.
Regardless, request_module() should correctly return an error when it
fails. So let's make it return -ENOENT, which matches the error when
the modprobe binary doesn't exist.
I've also sent patches to document and test this case.
mm/memremap: set caching mode for PCI P2PDMA memory to WC
PCI BAR IO memory should never be mapped as WB, however prior to this
the PAT bits were set WB and it was typically overridden by MTRR
registers set by the firmware.
Set PCI P2PDMA memory to be UC as this is what it currently, typically,
ends up being mapped as on x86 after the MTRR registers override the
cache setting.
Future use-cases may need to generalize this by adding flags to select
the caching type, as some P2PDMA cases may not want UC. However, those
use-cases are not upstream yet and this can be changed when they arrive.

devm_memremap_pages() is currently used by the PCI P2PDMA code to create
struct page mappings for IO memory. At present, these mappings are
created with PAGE_KERNEL which implies setting the PAT bits to be WB.
However, on x86, an mtrr register will typically override this and force
the cache type to be UC-. In the case firmware doesn't set this
register it is effectively WB and will typically result in a machine
check exception when it's accessed.
Other arches are not currently likely to function correctly seeing they
don't have any MTRR registers to fall back on.
To solve this, provide a way to specify the pgprot value explicitly to
arch_add_memory().
Of the arches that support MEMORY_HOTPLUG: x86_64, and arm64 need a
simple change to pass the pgprot_t down to their respective functions
which set up the page tables. For x86_32, set the page tables
explicitly using _set_memory_prot() (seeing they are already mapped).
For ia64, s390 and sh, reject anything but PAGE_KERNEL settings -- this
should be fine, for now, seeing these architectures don't support
ZONE_DEVICE.
A check in __add_pages() is also added to ensure the pgprot parameter
was set for all arches.

mm/memory_hotplug: drop the flags field from struct mhp_restrictions
Patch series "Allow setting caching mode in arch_add_memory() for
P2PDMA", v4.
Currently, the page tables created using memremap_pages() are always
created with the PAGE_KERNEL cacheing mode. However, the P2PDMA code is
creating pages for PCI BAR memory which should never be accessed through
the cache and instead use either WC or UC. This still works in most
cases, on x86, because the MTRR registers typically override the caching
settings in the page tables for all of the IO memory to be UC-.
However, this tends not to work so well on other arches or some rare x86
machines that have firmware which does not setup the MTRR registers in
this way.
Instead of this, this series proposes a change to arch_add_memory() to
take the pgprot required by the mapping which allows us to explicitly
set pagetable entries for P2PDMA memory to UC.
This changes is pretty routine for most of the arches: x86_64, arm64 and
powerpc simply need to thread the pgprot through to where the page
tables are setup. x86_32 unfortunately sets up the page tables at boot
so must use _set_memory_prot() to change their caching mode. ia64, s390
and sh don't appear to have an easy way to change the page tables so,
for now at least, we just return -EINVAL on such mappings and thus they
will not support P2PDMA memory until the work for this is done. This
should be fine as they don't yet support ZONE_DEVICE.
This patch (of 7):
This variable is not used anywhere and should therefore be removed from
the structure.

mm/special: create generic fallbacks for pte_special() and pte_mkspecial()
Currently there are many platforms that dont enable ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL
but required to define quite similar fallback stubs for special page
table entry helpers such as pte_special() and pte_mkspecial(), as they
get build in generic MM without a config check. This creates two
generic fallback stub definitions for these helpers, eliminating much
code duplication.
mips platform has a special case where pte_special() and pte_mkspecial()
visibility is wider than what ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL enablement requires.
This restricts those symbol visibility in order to avoid redefinitions
which is now exposed through this new generic stubs and subsequent build
failure. arm platform set_pte_at() definition needs to be moved into a
C file just to prevent a build failure.

There are many places where all basic VMA access flags (read, write,
exec) are initialized or checked against as a group. One such example
is during page fault. Existing vma_is_accessible() wrapper already
creates the notion of VMA accessibility as a group access permissions.
Hence lets just create VM_ACCESS_FLAGS (VM_READ|VM_WRITE|VM_EXEC) which
will not only reduce code duplication but also extend the VMA
accessibility concept in general.

mm: define pte_index as macro for x86
pte_index() is either defined as a macro (e.g. sparc64) or as an
inlined function (e.g. x86). vm_insert_pages() depends on pte_index
but it is not defined on all platforms (e.g. m68k).
To fix compilation of vm_insert_pages() on architectures not providing
pte_index(), we perform the following fix:
0. For platforms where it is meaningful, and defined as a macro, no
change is needed.
1. For platforms where it is meaningful and defined as an inlined
function, and we want to use it with vm_insert_pages(), we define
a degenerate macro of the form: #define pte_index pte_index
2. vm_insert_pages() checks for the existence of a pte_index macro
definition. If found, it implements a batched insert. If not found,
it devolves to calling vm_insert_page() in a loop.
This patch implements step 1 for x86.
v3 of this patch fixes a compilation warning for an unused method.
v2 of this patch moved a macro definition to a more readable location.

mm: hugetlb: optionally allocate gigantic hugepages using cma
Commit 944d9fec8d7a ("hugetlb: add support for gigantic page allocation
at runtime") has added the run-time allocation of gigantic pages.
However it actually works only at early stages of the system loading,
when the majority of memory is free. After some time the memory gets
fragmented by non-movable pages, so the chances to find a contiguous 1GB
block are getting close to zero. Even dropping caches manually doesn't
help a lot.
At large scale rebooting servers in order to allocate gigantic hugepages
is quite expensive and complex. At the same time keeping some constant
percentage of memory in reserved hugepages even if the workload isn't
using it is a big waste: not all workloads can benefit from using 1 GB
pages.
The following solution can solve the problem:
1) On boot time a dedicated cma area* is reserved. The size is passed
as a kernel argument.
2) Run-time allocations of gigantic hugepages are performed using the
cma allocator and the dedicated cma area
In this case gigantic hugepages can be allocated successfully with a
high probability, however the memory isn't completely wasted if nobody
is using 1GB hugepages: it can be used for pagecache, anon memory, THPs,
etc.
* On a multi-node machine a per-node cma area is allocated on each node.
Following gigantic hugetlb allocation are using the first available
numa node if the mask isn't specified by a user.
Usage:
1) configure the kernel to allocate a cma area for hugetlb allocations:
pass hugetlb_cma=10G as a kernel argument
2) allocate hugetlb pages as usual, e.g.
echo 10 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages
If the option isn't enabled or the allocation of the cma area failed,
the current behavior of the system is preserved.
x86 and arm-64 are covered by this patch, other architectures can be
trivially added later.
The patch contains clean-ups and fixes proposed and implemented by Aslan
Bakirov and Randy Dunlap. It also contains ideas and suggestions
