tcp: PRR uses CRB mode by default and SS mode conditionally
PRR slow start is often too aggressive especially when drops are
caused by traffic policers. The policers mainly use token bucket
to enforce the rate so sending (twice) faster than the delivery
rate causes excessive drops.
This patch changes PRR to the conservative reduction bound
(CRB) mode in RFC 6937 by default. CRB follows the packet
conservation rule to send at most the delivery rate by default.
But if many packets are lost and the pipe is empty, CRB may take N
round trips to repair N losses. We conditionally turn on slow start
mode if all these conditions are made to speed up the recovery:
1) on the second round or later in recovery
2) retransmission sent in the previous round is delivered on this ACK
3) no retransmission is marked lost on this ACK
By using packet conservation by default, this change reduces the loss
retransmits signicantly on networks that deploy traffic policers,
up to 20% reduction of overall loss rate.

tcp: reduce cwnd if retransmit is lost in CA_Loss
If the retransmission in CA_Loss is lost again, we should not
continue to slow start or raise cwnd in congestion avoidance mode.
Instead we should enter fast recovery and use PRR to reduce cwnd,
following the principle in RFC5681:
"... or the loss of a retransmission, should be taken as two
indications of congestion and, therefore, cwnd (and ssthresh) MUST
be lowered twice in this case."
This is especially important to reduce loss when the CA_Loss
state was caused by a traffic policer dropping the entire inflight.
The CA_Loss state has a problem where a loss of L packets causes the
sender to send a burst of L packets. So a policer that's dropping
most packets in a given RTT can cause a huge retransmit storm. By
contrast, PRR includes logic to bound the number of outbound packets
that result from a given ACK. So switching to CA_Recovery on lost
retransmits in CA_Loss avoids this retransmit storm problem when
in CA_Loss.

"Replace module_platform_driver with builtin_platform driver in non

We see an increasing number of non-modular drivers using
modular_driver() type register functions. There are several downsides
to letting this continue unchecked:
- The code can appear modular to a reader of the code, and they won't
know if the code really is modular without checking the Makefile
and Kconfig to see if compilation is governed by a bool or
tristate.
- Coders of drivers may be tempted to code up an __exit function that
is never used, just in order to satisfy the required three args of
the modular registration function.
- Non-modular code ends up including the <module.h> which increases
CPP overhead that they don't need.
- It hinders us from performing better separation of the module init
code and the generic init code.
So here we introduce similar macros for builtin drivers. Then we
convert builtin drivers (controlled by a bool Kconfig) by making the
following type of mapping:
module_platform_driver() ---> builtin_platform_driver()
module_platform_driver_probe() ---> builtin_platform_driver_probe().
The set of drivers that are converted here are just the ones that
showed up as relying on an implicit include of <module.h> during a
pending header cleanup. So we convert them here vs adding an include
of <module.h> to non-modular code to avoid compile fails. Additonal
conversions can be done asynchronously at any time.

"Replace module_init with appropriate alternate initcall in non
modules.
This series converts non-modular code that is using the module_init()
call to hook itself into the system to instead use one of our
alternate priority initcalls.
Unlike the previous series that used device_initcall and hence was a
runtime no-op, these commits change to one of the alternate initcalls,
because (a) we have them and (b) it seems like the right thing to do.
For example, it would seem logical to use arch_initcall for arch
specific setup code and fs_initcall for filesystem setup code.
This does mean however, that changes in the init ordering will be
taking place, and so there is a small risk that some kind of implicit
init ordering issue may lie uncovered. But I think it is still better
to give these ones sensible priorities than to just assign them all to
device_initcall in order to exactly preserve the old ordering.
Thad said, we have already made similar changes in core kernel code in
commit
c96d6660dc65 ("kernel: audit/fix non-modular users of

"Outside of our usual batch of fixes, this integrates the subvolume
quota updates that Qu Wenruo from Fujitsu has been working on for a
few releases now. He gets an extra gold star for making btrfs smaller
this time, and fixing a number of quota corners in the process.
Dave Sterba tested and integrated Anand Jain's sysfs improvements.
Outside of exporting a symbol (ack'd by Greg) these are all internal
to btrfs and it's mostly cleanups and fixes. Anand also attached some
of our sysfs objects to our internal device management structs instead
of an object off the super block. It will make device management
easier overall and it's a better fit for how the sysfs files are used.
None of the existing sysfs files are moved around.
Thanks for all the fixes everyone"

The kerneldoc for the functions doesn't match the code; the last two

especially as they're both integral types and the compiler won't warn
about swapping them.

The only difference between sg_pcopy_{from,to}_buffer() and
sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() is an additional argument that
specifies the number of bytes to skip the SG list before
copying.
The functions have the extra argument at the end, but the kerneldoc
lists it in penultimate position.

ipc,sysv: make return -EIDRM when racing with RMID consistent
The ipc_lock helper is used by all forms of sysv ipc to acquire the ipc
object's spinlock. Upon error (bogus identifier), we always return
-EINVAL, whether the problem be in the idr path or because we raced with a
task performing RMID. For the later, however, all ipc related manpages,
state the that for:
EIDRM <ID> points to a removed identifier.
And return:
EINVAL Invalid <ID> value, or unaligned, etc.
Which (EINVAL) should only return once the ipc resource is deleted. For
all types of ipc this is done immediately upon a RMID command. However,
shared memory behaves slightly different as it can merely mark a segment
for deletion, and delay the actual freeing until there are no more active
consumers. Per shmctl(IPC_RMID) manpage:
""
Mark the segment to be destroyed. The segment will only actually
be destroyed after the last process detaches it (i.e., when the
shm_nattch member of the associated structure shmid_ds is zero).
""
Unlike ipc_lock, paths that behave "correctly", at least per the manpage,
involve controlling the ipc resource via *ctl(), doing the exact same
validity check as ipc_lock after right acquiring the spinlock:
if (!ipc_valid_object()) {
err = -EIDRM;
goto out_unlock;
}
Thus make ipc_lock consistent with the rest of ipc code and return -EIDRM
in ipc_lock when !ipc_valid_object().

ipc,msg: provide barrier pairings for lockless receive
We currently use a full barrier on the sender side to to avoid receiver
tasks disappearing on us while still performing on the sender side wakeup.
We lack however, the proper CPU-CPU interactions pairing on the receiver
side which busy-waits for the message. Similarly, we do not need a full
smp_mb, and can relax the semantics for the writer and reader sides of the
message. This is safe as we are only ordering loads and stores to r_msg.
And in both smp_wmb and smp_rmb, there are no stores after the calls
_anyway_.
This obviously applies for pipelined_send and expunge_all, for EIRDM when
destroying a queue.

Commit
f06e5153f4ae2e ("kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers"
option for kdump after panic_notifers") introduced
"crash_kexec_post_notifiers" kernel boot option, which toggles wheather
panic() calls crash_kexec() before panic_notifiers and dump kmsg or after.
The problem is that the commit overlooks panic_on_oops kernel boot option.
If it is enabled, crash_kexec() is called directly without going through
panic() in oops path.
To fix this issue, this patch adds a check to "crash_kexec_post_notifiers"
in the condition of kexec_should_crash().
Also, put a comment in kexec_should_crash() to explain not obvious things
on this patch.

x86/kexec: prepend elfcorehdr instead of appending it to the crash-kernel command-line.
Any parameter passed after '--' in the kernel command-line will not be
parsed by the kernel at all, instead it will be passed directly to init
process.
Currently the kernel appends elfcorehdr=<paddr> to the cmdline passed from
kexec load, and if this command-line is used to pass parameters to init
process this means that 'elfcorehdr' will not be parsed as a kernel
parameter at all which will be a problem for vmcore subsystem since it
will know nothing about the location of the ELF structure!
Prepending 'elfcorehdr' instead of appending it fixes this problem since
it ensures that it always comes before '--' and so it's always parsed as a
kernel command-line parameter.
Even with this patch things can still go wrong if 'CONFIG_CMDLINE' was
also used to embedd a command-line to the crash dump kernel and this
command-line contains '--' since the current behavior of the kernel is to
actually append the boot loader command-line to the embedded command-line.

Such behavior is only used by mounts_open_common().
In order to drop support for such uncommon feature, proc_mounts is
converted to use seq_open_private(), which take care of allocating the
proc_mounts structure, making it available through ->private in struct
seq_file.
Conversely, proc_mounts is converted to use seq_release_private(), in
order to release the private structure allocated by seq_open_private().
Then, ->private is used directly instead of proc_mounts() macro to access
to the proc_mounts structure.

creates dedicated threads to initialise memory before basic setup. It
then blocks on a rw_semaphore until completion as a wait_queue and counter
is overkill. This may be slower to boot but it's simplier overall and
also gets rid of a section mangling which existed so kswapd could do the
