drivers/char/hpet.c: allow user controlled mmap for user processes
The CONFIG_HPET_MMAP Kconfig option exposes the memory map of the HPET
registers to userspace. The Kconfig help points out that in some cases
this can be a security risk as some systems may erroneously configure the
map such that additional data is exposed to userspace.
This is a problem for distributions -- some users want the MMAP
functionality but it comes with a significant security risk. In an effort
to mitigate this risk, and due to the low number of users of the MMAP
functionality, I've introduced a kernel parameter, hpet_mmap_enable, that
is required in order to actually have the HPET MMAP exposed.

mm: numa: return the number of base pages altered by protection changes
Commit 0255d4918480 ("mm: Account for a THP NUMA hinting update as one
PTE update") was added to account for the number of PTE updates when
marking pages prot_numa. task_numa_work was using the old return value
to track how much address space had been updated. Altering the return
value causes the scanner to do more work than it is configured or
documented to in a single unit of work.
This patch reverts that commit and accounts for the number of THP
updates separately in vmstat. It is up to the administrator to
interpret the pair of values correctly. This is a straight-forward
operation and likely to only be of interest when actively debugging NUMA
balancing problems.
The impact of this patch is that the NUMA PTE scanner will scan slower
when THP is enabled and workloads may converge slower as a result. On
the flip size system CPU usage should be lower than recent tests
reported. This is an illustrative example of a short single JVM specjbb
test

Performance is similar but note the reduction in system CPU time. While
this showed a performance gain, it will not be universal but at least
it'll be behaving as documented. The vmstats are obviously different but
here is an obvious interpretation of them from mmtests.

"NUMA page range updates" == nr_pte_updates and is the value returned to
the NUMA pte scanner. NUMA huge PMD updates were the number of THP
updates which in combination can be used to calculate how many ptes were
updated from userspace.

readahead: fix sequential read cache miss detection
The kernel's readahead algorithm sometimes interprets random read
accesses as sequential and triggers unnecessary data prefecthing from
storage device (impacting random read average latency).
In order to identify sequential cache read misses, the readahead
algorithm intends to check whether offset - previous offset == 1
(trivial sequential reads) or offset - previous offset == 0 (sequential
reads not aligned on page boundary):
if (offset - (ra->prev_pos >> PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT) <= 1UL)
The current offset is stored in the "offset" variable of type "pgoff_t"
(unsigned long), while previous offset is stored in "ra->prev_pos" of
type "loff_t" (long long). Therefore, operands of the if statement are
implicitly converted to type long long. Consequently, when previous
offset > current offset (which happens on random pattern), the if
condition is true and access is wrongly interpeted as sequential. An
unnecessary data prefetching is triggered, impacting the average random
read latency.
Storing the previous offset value in a "pgoff_t" variable (unsigned
long) fixes the sequential read detection logic.

It has been reported on very large machines that show_mem is taking almost

PFN walk to give us the following information
Total RAM: Also available as totalram_pages
Highmem pages: Also available as totalhigh_pages
Reserved pages: Can be inferred from the zone structure
Shared pages: PFN walk required
Unshared pages: PFN walk required
Quick pages: Per-cpu walk required
Only the shared/unshared pages requires a full PFN walk but that
information is useless. It is also inaccurate as page pins of unshared
pages would be accounted for as shared. Even if the information was
accurate, I'm struggling to think how the shared/unshared information
could be useful for debugging OOM conditions. Maybe it was useful before
rmap existed when reclaiming shared pages was costly but it is less
relevant today.
The PFN walk could be optimised a bit but why bother as the information is
useless. This patch deletes the PFN walker and infers the total RAM,
highmem and reserved pages count from struct zone. It omits the
shared/unshared page usage on the grounds that it is useless. It also
corrects the reporting of HighMem as HighMem/MovableOnly as ZONE_MOVABLE

mem-hotplug: introduce movable_node boot option
The hot-Pluggable field in SRAT specifies which memory is hotpluggable.
As we mentioned before, if hotpluggable memory is used by the kernel, it
cannot be hot-removed. So memory hotplug users may want to set all
hotpluggable memory in ZONE_MOVABLE so that the kernel won't use it.
Memory hotplug users may also set a node as movable node, which has
ZONE_MOVABLE only, so that the whole node can be hot-removed.
But the kernel cannot use memory in ZONE_MOVABLE. By doing this, the
kernel cannot use memory in movable nodes. This will cause NUMA
performance down. And other users may be unhappy.
So we need a way to allow users to enable and disable this functionality.
In this patch, we introduce movable_node boot option to allow users to
choose to not to consume hotpluggable memory at early boot time and later
we can set it as ZONE_MOVABLE.
To achieve this, the movable_node boot option will control the memblock
allocation direction. That said, after memblock is ready, before SRAT is
parsed, we should allocate memory near the kernel image as we explained in
the previous patches. So if movable_node boot option is set, the kernel
does the following:
1. After memblock is ready, make memblock allocate memory bottom up.
2. After SRAT is parsed, make memblock behave as default, allocate memory
top down.
Users can specify "movable_node" in kernel commandline to enable this
functionality. For those who don't use memory hotplug or who don't want
to lose their NUMA performance, just don't specify anything. The kernel
will work as before.

mm/memblock.c: factor out of top-down allocation
[Problem]
The current Linux cannot migrate pages used by the kernel because of the
kernel direct mapping. In Linux kernel space, va = pa + PAGE_OFFSET.
When the pa is changed, we cannot simply update the pagetable and keep the
va unmodified. So the kernel pages are not migratable.
There are also some other issues will cause the kernel pages not
migratable. For example, the physical address may be cached somewhere and
will be used. It is not to update all the caches.
When doing memory hotplug in Linux, we first migrate all the pages in one
memory device somewhere else, and then remove the device. But if pages
are used by the kernel, they are not migratable. As a result, memory used
by the kernel cannot be hot-removed.
Modifying the kernel direct mapping mechanism is too difficult to do. And
it may cause the kernel performance down and unstable. So we use the
following way to do memory hotplug.
[What we are doing]
In Linux, memory in one numa node is divided into several zones. One of
the zones is ZONE_MOVABLE, which the kernel won't use.
In order to implement memory hotplug in Linux, we are going to arrange all
hotpluggable memory in ZONE_MOVABLE so that the kernel won't use these
memory. To do this, we need ACPI's help.
In ACPI, SRAT(System Resource Affinity Table) contains NUMA info. The
memory affinities in SRAT record every memory range in the system, and
also, flags specifying if the memory range is hotpluggable. (Please refer
to ACPI spec 5.0 5.2.16)
With the help of SRAT, we have to do the following two things to achieve our
goal:
1. When doing memory hot-add, allow the users arranging hotpluggable as
ZONE_MOVABLE.
(This has been done by the MOVABLE_NODE functionality in Linux.)
2. when the system is booting, prevent bootmem allocator from allocating
hotpluggable memory for the kernel before the memory initialization
finishes.
The problem 2 is the key problem we are going to solve. But before solving it,
we need some preparation. Please see below.
[Preparation]
Bootloader has to load the kernel image into memory. And this memory must
be unhotpluggable. We cannot prevent this anyway. So in a memory hotplug
system, we can assume any node the kernel resides in is not hotpluggable.
Before SRAT is parsed, we don't know which memory ranges are hotpluggable.
But memblock has already started to work. In the current kernel,
memblock allocates the following memory before SRAT is parsed:
setup_arch()
|->memblock_x86_fill() /* memblock is ready */
|......
|->early_reserve_e820_mpc_new() /* allocate memory under 1MB */
|->reserve_real_mode() /* allocate memory under 1MB */
|->init_mem_mapping() /* allocate page tables, about 2MB to map 1GB memory */
|->dma_contiguous_reserve() /* specified by user, should be low */
|->setup_log_buf() /* specified by user, several mega bytes */
|->relocate_initrd() /* could be large, but will be freed after boot, should reorder */
|->acpi_initrd_override() /* several mega bytes */
|->reserve_crashkernel() /* could be large, should reorder */
|......
|->initmem_init() /* Parse SRAT */
According to Tejun's advice, before SRAT is parsed, we should try our best
to allocate memory near the kernel image. Since the whole node the kernel
resides in won't be hotpluggable, and for a modern server, a node may have
at least 16GB memory, allocating several mega bytes memory around the
kernel image won't cross to hotpluggable memory.
[About this patchset]
So this patchset is the preparation for the problem 2 that we want to
solve. It does the following:
1. Make memblock be able to allocate memory bottom up.
1) Keep all the memblock APIs' prototype unmodified.
2) When the direction is bottom up, keep the start address greater than the
end of kernel image.
2. Improve init_mem_mapping() to support allocate page tables in
bottom up direction.
3. Introduce "movable_node" boot option to enable and disable this
functionality.
This patch (of 6):
Create a new function __memblock_find_range_top_down to factor out of
top-down allocation from memblock_find_in_range_node. This is a
preparation because we will introduce a new bottom-up allocation mode in
the following patch.

writeback: do not sync data dirtied after sync start
When there are processes heavily creating small files while sync(2) is
running, it can easily happen that quite some new files are created
between WB_SYNC_NONE and WB_SYNC_ALL pass of sync(2). That can happen
especially if there are several busy filesystems (remember that sync
traverses filesystems sequentially and waits in WB_SYNC_ALL phase on one
fs before starting it on another fs). Because WB_SYNC_ALL pass is slow
(e.g. causes a transaction commit and cache flush for each inode in
ext3), resulting sync(2) times are rather large.
The following script reproduces the problem:
function run_writers
{
for (( i = 0; i < 10; i++ )); do
mkdir $1/dir$i
for (( j = 0; j < 40000; j++ )); do
dd if=/dev/zero of=$1/dir$i/$j bs=4k count=4 &>/dev/null
done &
done
}
for dir in "$@"; do
run_writers $dir
done
sleep 40
time sync
Fix the problem by disregarding inodes dirtied after sync(2) was called
in the WB_SYNC_ALL pass. To allow for this, sync_inodes_sb() now takes
a time stamp when sync has started which is used for setting up work for
flusher threads.
To give some numbers, when above script is run on two ext4 filesystems
on simple SATA drive, the average sync time from 10 runs is 267.549
seconds with standard deviation 104.799426. With the patched kernel,
the average sync time from 10 runs is 2.995 seconds with standard
deviation 0.096.

Note that the kernel exposes this flag via bit[55] of /proc/pid/pagemap,

near future.) However, it shifts to the new semantics at the first
clear_ref, and the users of soft dirty bit always do it before utilizing

mm: thp: khugepaged: add policy for finding target node
Khugepaged will scan/free HPAGE_PMD_NR normal pages and replace with a
hugepage which is allocated from the node of the first scanned normal
page, but this policy is too rough and may end with unexpected result to
upper users.
The problem is the original page-balancing among all nodes will be
broken after hugepaged started. Thinking about the case if the first
scanned normal page is allocated from node A, most of other scanned
normal pages are allocated from node B or C.. But hugepaged will always
allocate hugepage from node A which will cause extra memory pressure on
node A which is not the situation before khugepaged started.
This patch try to fix this problem by making khugepaged allocate
hugepage from the node which have max record of scaned normal pages hit,
so that the effect to original page-balancing can be minimized.
The other problem is if normal scanned pages are equally allocated from
Node A,B and C, after khugepaged started Node A will still suffer extra
memory pressure.

When ocfs2_write_cluster_by_desc() failed in ocfs2_write_begin_nolock()
because of ENOSPC, it goes to out_quota, freeing data_ac(meta_ac). Then
it calls ocfs2_try_to_free_truncate_log() to free space. If enough
space freed, it will try to write again. Unfortunately, some error
happenes before ocfs2_lock_allocators(), it goes to out and free
data_ac(meta_ac) again.

"Here is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v3.13 development cycle.
I've got ACKs for the things that affect other subsystems (or it's my
own subsystem, like pinctrl). Most of that pertain to an attempt from
my side to consolidate and get rid of custom GPIO implementations in
the ARM tree. I will continue doing this.
The main change this time is the new GPIO descriptor API, background
for this can be found in Corbet's summary from this january in LWN:
http://lwn.net/Articles/533632/
Summary:
- Merged the GPIO descriptor API from Alexandre Courbot. This is a
first step toward trying to get rid of the global GPIO numberspace
for the future.
- Add an API so that driver can flag that a certain GPIO line is
being used by a irqchip backend for generating IRQs, so that we can
enforce checks, like not allowing users to switch that line to an
output at runtime, since this makes no sense. Implemented
corresponding calls in a few select drivers.
- ACPI GPIO cleanups, refactorings and switch to using the
descriptor-based interface.
- Support for the TPS80036 Palmas GPIO variant.
- A new driver for the Broadcom Kona GPIO SoC IP block.
- Device tree support for the PCF857x driver.
- A set of ARM GPIO refactorings with the goal of getting rid of a
bunch of custom GPIO implementations from the arch/arm/* tree:
* Move the IOP GPIO driver to the GPIO subsystem and fix all users
to use the gpiolib API for accessing GPIOs. Delete the old
custom GPIO implementation.
* Delete the unused custom PXA GPIO implemention.
* Convert all users of the IXP4 custom GPIO implementation to use
gpiolib and delete the custom implementation.
* Delete the custom Gemini GPIO implementation, also completely
unused.
- Various cleanups and renamings"

- Incremental updates to the Renesas Super-H PFC pin control driver.
New subdriver for the r8a7791 SoC.
- Non-linear GPIO ranges from the gpiolib side of things, this

of pins on some pin controller to act as back-end for a certain
GPIO-chip driver.
- Add the Abilis TB10x pin control driver used on the ARC
architecture. Also the corresponding GPIO driver is merged through
this tree, so the ARC has full support for pins and GPIOs after
this.

Pull regulator updates from Mark Brown:
"Lots of driver updates here plus some nice new core features, the main
one being the first:
- Enable support for providing a dummy regulator when we know that
one must exist for the device to be functional. This makes it much
easier to add regulator support to drivers since we don't require
that the machine integration for all systems using the device be
updated to provide regulators.
- Substantial reduction in the amount of busy waiting done while
waiting for enables to complete.
- Allow MFDs to distribute regulator supplies to child devices so we
don't have to expose the internal structure of MFDs outside of the
driver.
- Managed registeration for regulators"

Pull regmap updates from Mark Brown:
"The main thing this time around has been some improvments to async
I/O.
- Cleaned up the async I/O support and extended it to allow single
register writes more easily. This is now used where possible for
internally generated I/O, providing performance improvements for
devices that can do async I/O.
- An API for issuing a sequence of register writes as a single
operation. Some devices and buses can take advantage of this to do
the I/O faster.
- Addition of regmap_field APIs which help drivers for devices with
repeated IPs or which move registers around between revisions to
share helpers.
- Support for SPMI buses"
