dma-mapping: tidy up dma_parms default handling

Many DMA controllers and other devices set max_segment_size to
indicate their scatter-gather capability, but have no interest in
segment_boundary_mask. However, the existence of a dma_parms structure
precludes the use of any default value, leaving them as zeros (assuming
a properly kzalloc'ed structure). If a well-behaved IOMMU (or SWIOTLB)
then tries to respect this by ensuring a mapped segment does not cross
a zero-byte boundary, hilarity ensues.

Since zero is a nonsensical value for either parameter, treat it as an
indicator for "default", as might be expected. In the process, clean up
a bit by replacing the bare constants with slightly more meaningful
macros and removing the superfluous "else" statements.

pidns: fix set/getpriority and ioprio_set/get in PRIO_USER mode

setpriority(PRIO_USER, 0, x) will change the priority of tasks outside of
the current pid namespace.  This is in contrast to both the other modes of
setpriority and the example of kill(-1).  Fix this.  getpriority and
ioprio have the same failure mode, fix them too.

Eric said:

: After some more thinking about it this patch sounds justifiable.
:
: My goal with namespaces is not to build perfect isolation mechanisms
: as that can get into ill defined territory, but to build well defined
: mechanisms.  And to handle the corner cases so you can use only
: a single namespace with well defined results.
:
: In this case you have found the two interfaces I am aware of that
: identify processes by uid instead of by pid.  Which quite frankly is
: weird.  Unfortunately the weird unexpected cases are hard to handle
: in the usual way.
:
: I was hoping for a little more information.  Changes like this one we
: have to be careful of because someone might be depending on the current

fs, seqfile: always allow oom killer

Since 5cec38ac866b ("fs, seq_file: fallback to vmalloc instead of oom kill
processes") seq_buf_alloc() avoids calling the oom killer for PAGE_SIZE or
smaller allocations; but larger allocations can use the oom killer via
vmalloc().  Thus reads of small files can return ENOMEM, but larger files
use the oom killer to avoid ENOMEM.

The effect of this bug is that reads from /proc and other virtual
filesystems can return ENOMEM instead of the preferred behavior - oom
killing something (possibly the calling process).  I don't know of anyone
except Google who has noticed the issue.

I suspect the fix is more needed in smaller systems where there isn't any
reclaimable memory.  But these seem like the kinds of systems which
probably don't use the oom killer for production situations.

Memory overcommit requires use of the oom killer to select a victim
regardless of file size.

Enable oom killer for small seq_buf_alloc() allocations.

signals: kill block_all_signals() and unblock_all_signals()

It is hardly possible to enumerate all problems with block_all_signals()
and unblock_all_signals().  Just for example,

1. block_all_signals(SIGSTOP/etc) simply can't help if the caller is
   multithreaded. Another thread can dequeue the signal and force the
   group stop.

2. Even is the caller is single-threaded, it will "stop" anyway. It
   will not sleep, but it will spin in kernel space until SIGCONT or
   SIGKILL.

And a lot more. In short, this interface doesn't work at all, at least
the last 10+ years.

Daniel said:

  Yeah the only times I played around with the DRM_LOCK stuff was when
  old drivers accidentally deadlocked - my impression is that the entire

nilfs2: add a tracepoint for transaction events

This patch adds a tracepoint for transaction events of nilfs.  With the
tracepoint, these events can be tracked: begin, abort, commit, trylock,
lock, and unlock.  Basically, these events have corresponding functions
e.g.  begin event corresponds nilfs_transaction_begin().  The unlock event
is an exception.  It corresponds to the iteration in
nilfs_transaction_lock().

Only one tracepoint is introcued: nilfs2_transaction_transition.  The
above events are distinguished with newly introduced enum.  With this
tracepoint, we can analyse a critical section of segment constructoin.

nilfs2: add a tracepoint for tracking stage transition of segment construction

This patch adds a tracepoint for tracking stage transition of block
collection in segment construction.  With the tracepoint, we can analysis
the behavior of segment construction in depth.  It would be useful for
bottleneck detection and debugging, etc.

The tracepoint is created with the standard trace API of linux (like ext3,
ext4, f2fs and btrfs).  So we can analysis with existing tools easily.  Of
course, more detailed analysis will be possible if we can create nilfs
specific analysis tools.

Below is an example of event dump with Brendan Gregg's perf-tools
(https://github.com/brendangregg/perf-tools).  Time consumption between
each stage can be obtained.

nilfs2: free unused dat file blocks during garbage collection

As a nilfs2 volume ages, the amount of available disk space decreases
little by little due to bloat of DAT (disk address translation) metadata
file.  Even if we delete all files in a file system and free their block
addresses from the DAT file through a garbage collection, empty DAT blocks
are not freed.

This fixes the issue by extending the deallocator of block addresses so
that empty data blocks and empty bitmap blocks of DAT are deleted.

The following comparison shows the effect of this patch.  Each shows disk
amount information of a nilfs2 volume that we cleaned out by deleting all
files and running gc after having filled 90% of its capacity.

rbtree: clarify documentation of rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe()

I noticed that commit a20135ffbc44 ("writeback: don't drain
bdi_writeback_congested on bdi destruction") added a usage of
rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() in mm/backing-dev.c which appears
to try to rb_erase() elements from an rbtree while iterating over it using
rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe().

Doing this will cause random nodes to be missed by the iteration because
rb_erase() may rebalance the tree, changing the ordering that we're trying
to iterate over.

The previous documentation for rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe()
wasn't clear that this wasn't allowed, it was taken from the docs for
list_for_each_entry_safe(), where erasing isn't a problem due to
list_del() not reordering.

Explicitly warn developers about this potential pit-fall.

Note that I haven't fixed the actual issue that (it appears) the commit
referenced above introduced (not familiar enough with that code).

In general (and in this case), the patterns to follow are:
 - switch to rb_first() + rb_erase(), don't use
   rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe().
 - keep the postorder iteration and don't rb_erase() at all. Instead
   just clear the fields of rb_node & cgwb_congested_tree as required by
   other users of those structures.

lib/kobject.c: use kvasprintf_const for formatting ->name

Sometimes kobject_set_name_vargs is called with a format string conaining
no %, or a format string of precisely "%s", where the single vararg
happens to point to .rodata.  kvasprintf_const detects these cases for us
and returns a copy of that pointer instead of duplicating the string, thus
saving some run-time memory.  Otherwise, it falls back to kvasprintf.  We
just need to always deallocate ->name using kfree_const.

Unfortunately, the dance we need to do to perform the '/' -> '!'
sanitization makes the resulting code rather ugly.

I instrumented kstrdup_const to provide some statistics on the memory
saved, and for me this gave an additional ~14KB after boot (306KB was
already saved; this patch bumped that to 320KB).  I have
KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW==3, and since 80% of the kvasprintf_const hits were
satisfied by an 8-byte allocation, the 14K would roughly be quadrupled
when KMALLOC_SHIFT_LOW==5.  Whether these numbers are sufficient to
justify the ugliness I'll leave to others to decide.

lib/kasprintf.c: introduce kvasprintf_const

This adds kvasprintf_const which tries to use kstrdup_const if possible:
If the format string contains no % characters, or if the format string is
exactly "%s", we delegate to kstrdup_const.  Otherwise, we fall back to
kvasprintf.

Just as for kstrdup_const, the main motivation is to save memory by
reusing .rodata when possible.

The return value should be freed by kfree_const, just like for
kstrdup_const.

There is deliberately no kasprintf_const: In the vast majority of cases,
the format string argument is a literal, so one can determine statically
whether one could instead use kstrdup_const directly (which would also
require one to change all corresponding kfree calls to kfree_const).

lib/llist.c: fix data race in llist_del_first

llist_del_first reads entry->next, but it did not acquire visibility over
the entry node.  As the result it can get a stale value of entry->next
(e.g.  NULL or whatever garbage was there before the appending thread
wrote correct value).  And then commit that value as llist head with
cmpxchg.  That will corrupt llist.

Note there is a control-dependency between read of head->first and read of
entry->next, but it does not make the code correct.  Kernel memory model
unambiguously says: "A load-load control dependency requires a full read
memory barrier".

Use smp_load_acquire to acquire visibility over the entry node.

The data race was found with KernelThreadSanitizer (KTSAN).

bitops.h: add sign_extend64()

Months back, this was discussed, see https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/1/18/289
The result was the 64-bit version being "likely fine", "valuable" and
"correct".  The discussion fell asleep but since there are possible users,
let's add it.

It is often overlooked that sign_extend32(), despite its name, is safe to
use for 16 and 8 bit types as well.  This should help prevent sign
extension being done manually some other way.

printk: prevent userland from spoofing kernel messages

The following statement of ABI/testing/dev-kmsg is not quite right:

   It is not possible to inject messages from userspace with the
   facility number LOG_KERN (0), to make sure that the origin of the
   messages can always be reliably determined.

Userland actually can inject messages with a facility of 0 by abusing the
fact that the facility is stored in a u8 data type.  By using a facility
which is a multiple of 256 the assignment of msg->facility in log_store()
implicitly truncates it to 0, i.e.  LOG_KERN, allowing users of /dev/kmsg
to spoof kernel messages as shown below:

The following call...
   # printf '<%d>Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty\n' 0 >/dev/kmsg
...leads to the following log entry (dmesg -x | tail -n 1):
   user  :emerg : [   66.137758] Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty

However, this call...
   # printf '<%d>Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty\n' 0x800 >/dev/kmsg
...leads to the slightly different log entry (note the kernel facility):
   kern  :emerg : [   74.177343] Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty

Fix that by limiting the user provided facility to 8 bit right from the
beginning and catch the truncation early.

test_printf: test printf family at runtime

This adds a simple module for testing the kernel's printf facilities.
Previously, some %p extensions have caused a wrong return value in case
the entire output didn't fit and/or been unusable in kasprintf().  This
should help catch such issues.  Also, it should help ensure that changes
to the formatting algorithms don't break anything.

I'm not sure if we have a struct dentry or struct file lying around at
boot time or if we can fake one, but most %p extensions should be
testable, as should the ordinary number and string formatting.

The nature of vararg functions means we can't use a more conventional
table-driven approach.

For now, this is mostly a skeleton; contributions are very
welcome. Some tests are/will be slightly annoying to write, since the
expected output depends on stuff like CONFIG_*, sizeof(long), runtime
values etc.

lib/vsprintf.c: remove SPECIAL handling in pointer()

As a quick

   git grep -E '%[ +0#-]*#[ +0#-]*(\*|[0-9]+)?(\.(\*|[0-9]+)?)?p'

shows, nobody uses the # flag with %p. Should one try to do so, one

  warning: `#' flag used with `%p' gnu_printf format [-Wformat]

(POSIX and C99 both say "... For other conversion specifiers, the
behavior is undefined.". Obviously, the kernel can choose to define
the behaviour however it wants, but as long as gcc issues that

lib/vsprintf.c: handle invalid format specifiers more robustly

If we meet any invalid or unsupported format specifier, 'handling' it by
just printing it as a literal string is not safe: Presumably the format
string and the arguments passed gcc's type checking, but that means
something like sprintf(buf, "%n %pd", &intvar, dentry) would end up
interpreting &intvar as a struct dentry*.

When the offending specifier was %n it used to be at the end of the format
string, but we can't rely on that always being the case.  Also, gcc
doesn't complain about some more or less exotic qualifiers (or 'length
modifiers' in posix-speak) such as 'j' or 'q', but being unrecognized by
the kernel's printf implementation, they'd be interpreted as unknown
specifiers, and the rest of arguments would be interpreted wrongly.

So let's complain about anything we don't understand, not just %n, and
stop pretending that we'd be able to make sense of the rest of the
format/arguments.  If the offending specifier is in a printk() call we
unfortunately only get a "BUG: recent printk recursion!", but at least
direct users of the sprintf family will be caught.

mm: make compound_head() robust

Hugh has pointed that compound_head() call can be unsafe in some
context. There's one example:

CPU0 CPU1

isolate_migratepages_block()
  page_count()
    compound_head()
      !!PageTail() == true
put_page()
  tail->first_page = NULL
      head = tail->first_page
alloc_pages(__GFP_COMP)
   prep_compound_page()
     tail->first_page = head
     __SetPageTail(p);
      !!PageTail() == true
    <head == NULL dereferencing>

The race is pure theoretical. I don't it's possible to trigger it in
practice. But who knows.

We can fix the race by changing how encode PageTail() and compound_head()
within struct page to be able to update them in one shot.

The patch introduces page->compound_head into third double word block in
front of compound_dtor and compound_order. Bit 0 encodes PageTail() and
the rest bits are pointer to head page if bit zero is set.

The patch moves page->pmd_huge_pte out of word, just in case if an
architecture defines pgtable_t into something what can have the bit 0
set.

hugetlb_cgroup uses page->lru.next in the second tail page to store
pointer struct hugetlb_cgroup. The patch switch it to use page->private
in the second tail page instead. The space is free since ->first_page is
removed from the union.

The patch also opens possibility to remove HUGETLB_CGROUP_MIN_ORDER
limitation, since there's now space in first tail page to store struct
hugetlb_cgroup pointer. But that's out of scope of the patch.

That means page->compound_head shares storage space with:

 - page->lru.next;
 - page->next;
 - page->rcu_head.next;

That's too long list to be absolutely sure, but looks like nobody uses
bit 0 of the word.

page->rcu_head.next guaranteed[1] to have bit 0 clean as long as we use
call_rcu(), call_rcu_bh(), call_rcu_sched(), or call_srcu(). But future
call_rcu_lazy() is not allowed as it makes use of the bit and we can
get false positive PageTail().

mm: pack compound_dtor and compound_order into one word in struct page

The patch halves space occupied by compound_dtor and compound_order in
struct page.

For compound_order, it's trivial long -> short conversion.

For get_compound_page_dtor(), we now use hardcoded table for destructor
lookup and store its index in the struct page instead of direct pointer
to destructor. It shouldn't be a big trouble to maintain the table: we
have only two destructor and NULL currently.

This patch free up one word in tail pages for reuse. This is preparation
for the next patch.

zsmalloc: reduce size_class memory usage

Each `struct size_class' contains `struct zs_size_stat': an array of
NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE `unsigned long'.  For zsmalloc built with no
CONFIG_ZSMALLOC_STAT this results in a waste of `2 * sizeof(unsigned
long)' per-class.

The patch removes unneeded `struct zs_size_stat' members by redefining
NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE (max stat idx in array).

Since both NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE and zs_stat_type are compile time constants,
GCC can eliminate zs_stat_inc()/zs_stat_dec() calls that use zs_stat_type
larger than NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE: CLASS_ALMOST_EMPTY and CLASS_ALMOST_FULL at
the moment.

./scripts/bloat-o-meter mm/zsmalloc.o.old mm/zsmalloc.o.new
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/3 up/down: 0/-39 (-39)

insert_zspage                                100      86     -14
remove_zspage                                141     119     -22

To summarize:
a) each class now uses less memory
b) we avoid a number of dec/inc stats (a minor optimization,
   but still).

The gain will increase once we introduce additional stats.

A simple IO test.

else
/* record handle in first_page->private */

In the hugepage we save handle to private directly.

But in obj_to_head():

VM_BUG_ON(!is_first_page(page));
return *(unsigned long *)page_private(page);
} else
return *(unsigned long *)obj;

It is used as a pointer.

The reason why there is no problem until now is huge-class page is born
with ZS_FULL so it can't be migrated.  However, we need this patch for

zram: keep the exact overcommited value in mem_used_max

`mem_used_max' is designed to store the max amount of memory zram consumed
to store the data.  However, it does not represent the actual
'overcommited' (max) value.  The existing code goes to -ENOMEM
overcommited case before it updates `->stats.max_used_pages', which hides
the reason we went to -ENOMEM in the first place -- we actually used more
memory than `->limit_pages':

        alloced_pages = zs_get_total_pages(meta->mem_pool);
        if (zram->limit_pages && alloced_pages > zram->limit_pages) {
                zs_free(meta->mem_pool, handle);
                ret = -ENOMEM;
                goto out;
        }

        update_used_max(zram, alloced_pages);

Which is misleading.  User will see -ENOMEM, check `->limit_pages', check
`->stats.max_used_pages', which will keep the value BEFORE zram passed
`->limit_pages', and see:
`->stats.max_used_pages' < `->limit_pages'

Move update_used_max() before we do `->limit_pages' check, so that
user will see:
`->stats.max_used_pages' > `->limit_pages'
should the overcommit and -ENOMEM happen.

zram: introduce comp algorithm fallback functionality

When the user supplies an unsupported compression algorithm, keep the
previously selected one (knowingly supported) or the default one (if the
compression algorithm hasn't been changed yet).

Note that previously this operation (i.e. setting an invalid algorithm)
would result in no algorithm being selected, which means that this
represents a small change in the default behaviour.

Minchan said:

For initializing zram, we need to set up 3 optional parameters in advance.

1. the number of compression streams
2. memory limitation
3. compression algorithm

Although user pass completely wrong value to set up for 1 and 2
parameters, it's okay because they have default value so zram will be
initialized with the default value (of course, when user passes a wrong
value via *echo*, sysfs returns -EINVAL so the user can notice it).

But 3 is not consistent with other optional parameters.  IOW, if the
user passes a wrong value to set up 3 parameter, zram's initialization
would fail unlike other optional parameters.

So this patch makes them consistent.

relying on WB_SYNC_ALL semantics.

These days do_sync_mapping_range() went away and we can switch
sync_file_range(2) back to issuing WB_SYNC_NONE writeback.  That should

mm: page_alloc: hide some GFP internals and document the bits and flag combinations

Andrew stated the following

We have quite a history of remote parts of the kernel using
weird/wrong/inexplicable combinations of __GFP_ flags. I tend
to think that this is because we didn't adequately explain the
interface.

And I don't think that gfp.h really improved much in this area as
a result of this patchset.  Could you go through it some time and
decide if we've adequately documented all this stuff?

This patches first moves some GFP flag combinations that are part of the MM
internals to mm/internal.h. The rest of the patch documents the __GFP_FOO
bits under various headings and then documents the flag combinations. It
will not help callers that are brain damaged but the clarity might motivate

mm, page_alloc: only enforce watermarks for order-0 allocations

The primary purpose of watermarks is to ensure that reclaim can always
make forward progress in PF_MEMALLOC context (kswapd and direct reclaim).
These assume that order-0 allocations are all that is necessary for
forward progress.

High-order watermarks serve a different purpose.  Kswapd had no high-order
awareness before they were introduced
(https://lkml.kernel.org/r/413AA7B2.4000907@yahoo.com.au).  This was
particularly important when there were high-order atomic requests.  The
watermarks both gave kswapd awareness and made a reserve for those atomic
requests.

There are two important side-effects of this.  The most important is that
a non-atomic high-order request can fail even though free pages are
available and the order-0 watermarks are ok.  The second is that
high-order watermark checks are expensive as the free list counts up to
the requested order must be examined.

With the introduction of MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC it is no longer necessary to
have high-order watermarks.  Kswapd and compaction still need high-order
awareness which is handled by checking that at least one suitable
high-order page is free.

With the patch applied, there was little difference in the allocation
failure rates as the atomic reserves are small relative to the number of
allocation attempts.  The expected impact is that there will never be an
allocation failure report that shows suitable pages on the free lists.

The one potential side-effect of this is that in a vanilla kernel, the
watermark checks may have kept a free page for an atomic allocation.  Now,
we are 100% relying on the HighAtomic reserves and an early allocation to
have allocated them.  If the first high-order atomic allocation is after
the system is already heavily fragmented then it'll fail.

mm, page_alloc: reserve pageblocks for high-order atomic allocations on demand

High-order watermark checking exists for two reasons -- kswapd high-order
awareness and protection for high-order atomic requests.  Historically the
kernel depended on MIGRATE_RESERVE to preserve min_free_kbytes as
high-order free pages for as long as possible.  This patch introduces
MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC that reserves pageblocks for high-order atomic
allocations on demand and avoids using those blocks for order-0
allocations.  This is more flexible and reliable than MIGRATE_RESERVE was.

A MIGRATE_HIGHORDER pageblock is created when an atomic high-order
allocation request steals a pageblock but limits the total number to 1% of
the zone.  Callers that speculatively abuse atomic allocations for
long-lived high-order allocations to access the reserve will quickly fail.
 Note that SLUB is currently not such an abuser as it reclaims at least
once.  It is possible that the pageblock stolen has few suitable
high-order pages and will need to steal again in the near future but there
would need to be strong justification to search all pageblocks for an
ideal candidate.

The pageblocks are unreserved if an allocation fails after a direct
reclaim attempt.

The watermark checks account for the reserved pageblocks when the
allocation request is not a high-order atomic allocation.

The reserved pageblocks can not be used for order-0 allocations.  This may
allow temporary wastage until a failed reclaim reassigns the pageblock.
This is deliberate as the intent of the reservation is to satisfy a
limited number of atomic high-order short-lived requests if the system
requires them.

The stutter benchmark was used to evaluate this but while it was running
there was a systemtap script that randomly allocated between 1 high-order
page and 12.5% of memory's worth of order-3 pages using GFP_ATOMIC.  This
is much larger than the potential reserve and it does not attempt to be
realistic.  It is intended to stress random high-order allocations from an
unknown source, show that there is a reduction in failures without
introducing an anomaly where atomic allocations are more reliable than
regular allocations.  The amount of memory reserved varied throughout the
workload as reserves were created and reclaimed under memory pressure.
The allocation failures once the workload warmed up were as follows;

4.2-rc5-vanilla 70%
4.2-rc5-atomic-reserve 56%

The failure rate was also measured while building multiple kernels.  The
failure rate was 14% but is 6% with this patch applied.

Overall, this is a small reduction but the reserves are small relative to
the number of allocation requests.  In early versions of the patch, the
failure rate reduced by a much larger amount but that required much larger
reserves and perversely made atomic allocations seem more reliable than
regular allocations.

mm, page_alloc: remove MIGRATE_RESERVE

MIGRATE_RESERVE preserves an old property of the buddy allocator that
existed prior to fragmentation avoidance -- min_free_kbytes worth of pages
tended to remain contiguous until the only alternative was to fail the
allocation.  At the time it was discovered that high-order atomic
allocations relied on this property so MIGRATE_RESERVE was introduced.  A
later patch will introduce an alternative MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC so this patch
deletes MIGRATE_RESERVE and supporting code so it'll be easier to review.
Note that this patch in isolation may look like a false regression if
someone was bisecting high-order atomic allocation failures.

mm, page_alloc: delete the zonelist_cache

The zonelist cache (zlc) was introduced to skip over zones that were
recently known to be full.  This avoided expensive operations such as the
cpuset checks, watermark calculations and zone_reclaim.  The situation
today is different and the complexity of zlc is harder to justify.

1) The cpuset checks are no-ops unless a cpuset is active and in general
   are a lot cheaper.

2) zone_reclaim is now disabled by default and I suspect that was a large
   source of the cost that zlc wanted to avoid. When it is enabled, it's
   known to be a major source of stalling when nodes fill up and it's
   unwise to hit every other user with the overhead.

3) Watermark checks are expensive to calculate for high-order
   allocation requests. Later patches in this series will reduce the cost
   of the watermark checking.

4) The most important issue is that in the current implementation it
   is possible for a failed THP allocation to mark a zone full for order-0
   allocations and cause a fallback to remote nodes.

The last issue could be addressed with additional complexity but as the
benefit of zlc is questionable, it is better to remove it.  If stalls due
to zone_reclaim are ever reported then an alternative would be to
introduce deferring logic based on a timeout inside zone_reclaim itself
and leave the page allocator fast paths alone.

The impact on page-allocator microbenchmarks is negligible as they don't
hit the paths where the zlc comes into play.  Most page-reclaim related
workloads showed no noticeable difference as a result of the removal.

The impact was noticeable in a workload called "stutter".  One part uses a
lot of anonymous memory, a second measures mmap latency and a third copies
a large file.  In an ideal world the latency application would not notice
the mmap latency.  On a 2-node machine the results of this patch are

Note that the maximum stall latency went from 24 seconds to 12 which is
still bad but an improvement.  The milage varies considerably 2-node
machine on an earlier test went from 494 seconds to 47 seconds and a
4-node machine that tested an earlier version of this patch went from a
worst case stall time of 6 seconds to 67ms.  The nature of the benchmark
is inherently unpredictable as it is hammering the system and the milage
will vary between machines.

There is a secondary impact with potentially more direct reclaim because
zones are now being considered instead of being skipped by zlc.  In this
particular test run it did not occur so will not be described.  However,
in at least one test the following was observed

1. Direct reclaim rates were higher. This was likely due to direct reclaim
  being entered instead of the zlc disabling a zone and busy looping.
  Busy looping may have the effect of allowing kswapd to make more
  progress and in some cases may be better overall. If this is found then
  the correct action is to put direct reclaimers to sleep on a waitqueue
  and allow kswapd make forward progress. Busy looping on the zlc is even
  worse than when the allocator used to blindly call congestion_wait().

2. There was higher swap activity as direct reclaim was active.

3. Direct reclaim efficiency was lower. This is related to 1 as more
  scanning activity also encountered more pages that could not be
  immediately reclaimed

In that case, the direct page scan and reclaim rates are noticeable but
it is not considered a problem for a few reasons

1. The test is primarily concerned with latency. The mmap attempts are also
   faulted which means there are THP allocation requests. The ZLC could
   cause zones to be disabled causing the process to busy loop instead
   of reclaiming.  This looks like elevated direct reclaim activity but
   it's the correct action to take based on what processes requested.

2. The test hammers reclaim and compaction heavily. The number of successful
   THP faults is highly variable but affects the reclaim stats. It's not a
   realistic or reasonable measure of page reclaim activity.

3. No other page-reclaim intensive workload that was tested showed a problem.

4. If a workload is identified that benefitted from the busy looping then it
   should be fixed by having direct reclaimers sleep on a wait queue until
   woken by kswapd instead of busy looping. We had this class of problem before
   when congestion_waits() with a fixed timeout was a brain damaged decision
   but happened to benefit some workloads.

If a workload is identified that relied on the zlc to busy loop then it
should be fixed correctly and have a direct reclaimer sleep on a waitqueue
until woken by kswapd.

mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to sleep and avoiding waking kswapd

__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts.  They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve".  __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".

Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available.  Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.

This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative.  High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH.  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim.  __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim.  __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.

This patch then converts a number of sites

o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
  pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.

o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
  __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
  into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
  are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.

o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
  helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
  checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
  positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
  is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
  flag manipulations.

o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
  and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.

The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.

The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL.  They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.  It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

mm, page_alloc: remove unnecessary recalculations for dirty zone balancing

File-backed pages that will be immediately written are balanced between
zones.  This heuristic tries to avoid having a single zone filled with
recently dirtied pages but the checks are unnecessarily expensive.  Move
consider_zone_balanced into the alloc_context instead of checking bitmaps
multiple times.  The patch also gives the parameter a more meaningful
name.

mm, page_alloc: remove unnecessary parameter from zone_watermark_ok_safe

Overall, the intent of this series is to remove the zonelist cache which
was introduced to avoid high overhead in the page allocator.  Once this is
done, it is necessary to reduce the cost of watermark checks.

The series starts with minor micro-optimisations.

Next it notes that GFP flags that affect watermark checks are abused.
__GFP_WAIT historically identified callers that could not sleep and could
access reserves.  This was later abused to identify callers that simply
prefer to avoid sleeping and have other options.  A patch distinguishes
between atomic callers, high-priority callers and those that simply wish
to avoid sleep.

The zonelist cache has been around for a long time but it is of dubious
merit with a lot of complexity and some issues that are explained.  The
most important issue is that a failed THP allocation can cause a zone to
be treated as "full".  This potentially causes unnecessary stalls, reclaim
activity or remote fallbacks.  The issues could be fixed but it's not
worth it.  The series places a small number of other micro-optimisations
on top before examining GFP flags watermarks.

High-order watermarks enforcement can cause high-order allocations to fail
even though pages are free.  The watermark checks both protect high-order
atomic allocations and make kswapd aware of high-order pages but there is
a much better way that can be handled using migrate types.  This series
uses page grouping by mobility to reserve pageblocks for high-order
allocations with the size of the reservation depending on demand.  kswapd
awareness is maintained by examining the free lists.  By patch 12 in this
series, there are no high-order watermark checks while preserving the
properties that motivated the introduction of the watermark checks.

This patch (of 10):

No user of zone_watermark_ok_safe() specifies alloc_flags.  This patch
removes the unnecessary parameter.

mfd: avoid newly introduced compiler warning

Commit b158b69a3765 ("mfd: rtsx: Simplify function return logic")
removed the use of the 'err' variable, but left the variable itself
around, resulting in gcc quite reasonably warning:

    drivers/mfd/rtsx_pcr.c: In function ‘rtsx_pci_set_pull_ctl’:
    drivers/mfd/rtsx_pcr.c:565:6: warning: unused variable ‘err’ [-Wunused-variable]
      int err;
          ^

Get rid of the unused variable, and avoid the new warning.
