rcu: Reject memory-order-induced stall-warning false positives
If a system is idle from an RCU perspective for longer than specified
by CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT, and if one CPU starts a grace period
just as a second checks for CPU stalls, and if this second CPU happens
to see the old value of rsp->jiffies_stall, it will incorrectly report a
CPU stall. This is quite rare, but apparently occurs deterministically
on systems with about 6TB of memory.
This commit therefore orders accesses to the data used to determine
whether or not a CPU stall is in progress. Grace-period initialization
and cleanup first increments rsp->completed to mark the end of the
previous grace period, then records the current jiffies in rsp->gp_start,
then records the jiffies at which a stall can be expected to occur in
rsp->jiffies_stall, and finally increments rsp->gpnum to mark the start
of the new grace period. Now, this ordering by itself does not prevent
false positives. For example, if grace-period initialization was delayed
between recording rsp->gp_start and rsp->jiffies_stall, the CPU stall
warning code might still see an old value of rsp->jiffies_stall.
Therefore, this commit also orders the CPU stall warning accesses as
well, loading rsp->gpnum and jiffies, then rsp->jiffies_stall, then
rsp->gp_start, and finally rsp->completed. This ordering means that
the false-positive scenario in the previous paragraph would result
in rsp->completed being greater than or equal to rsp->gpnum, which is
never valid for a CPU stall, allowing the false positive to be rejected.
Furthermore, any fetch that gets an old value of rsp->jiffies_stall
must also get an old value of rsp->gpnum, which will again be rejected
by the comparison of rsp->gpnum and rsp->completed. Situations where
rsp->gp_start is later than rsp->jiffies_stall are also rejected, as
are situations where jiffies is less than rsp->jiffies_stall.
Although use of unsynchronized accesses means that there are likely
still some false-positive scenarios (synchronization has proven to be
a very bad idea on large systems), this should get rid of a large class
of these scenarios.

rcu: Micro-optimize rcu_cpu_has_callbacks()
The for_each_rcu_flavor() loop unconditionally scans all flavors, even
when the first flavor might have some non-lazy callbacks. Once the
loop has seen a non-lazy callback, further passes through the loop
cannot change the state. This is not a huge problem, given that there
can be at most three RCU flavors (RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched),
but this code is on the path to idle, so speeding it up even a small
amount would have some benefit.
This commit therefore does two things:
1. Rearranges the order of the list of RCU flavors in order to
place the most active flavor first in the list. The most active
RCU flavor is RCU-preempt, or, if there is no RCU-preempt,
RCU-sched.
2. Reworks the for_each_rcu_flavor() to exit early when the first
non-lazy callback is seen, or, in the case where the caller
does not care about non-lazy callbacks (RCU_FAST_NO_HZ=n),
when the first callback is seen.

rcu: Replace __get_cpu_var() uses
__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One
of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This
calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the
current processor based on an offset.
Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
__get_cpu_var() is defined as :
__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However,
store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global
register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into
a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per
cpu variables.
This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations
that use the offset. Thereby address calcualtions are avoided and less
registers are used when code is generated.
At the end of the patchset all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed
so the macro is removed too.
The patchset includes passes over all arches as well. Once these
operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in
non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using
a global register that may be set to the per cpu base.
Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, u);

int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct

partitions/efi: loosen check fot pmbr size in lba
Matt found that commit
27a7c642174e ("partitions/efi: account for pmbr
size in lba") caused his GPT formatted eMMC device not to boot. The
reason is that this commit enforced Linux to always check the lesser of
the whole disk or 2Tib for the pMBR size in LBA. While most disk
partitioning tools out there create a pMBR with these characteristics,
Microsoft does not, as it always sets the entry to the maximum 32-bit
limitation - even though a drive may be smaller than that[1].
Loosen this check and only verify that the size is either the whole disk
or 0xFFFFFFFF. No tool in its right mind would set it to any value
other than these.

vfs: fix dentry LRU list handling and nr_dentry_unused accounting
The LRU list changes interacted badly with our nr_dentry_unused
accounting, and even worse with the new DCACHE_LRU_LIST bit logic.
This introduces helper functions to make sure everything follows the
proper dcache d_lru list rules: the dentry cache is complicated by the
fact that some of the hotpaths don't even want to look at the LRU list
at all, and the fact that we use the same list entry in the dentry for
both the LRU list and for our temporary shrinking lists when removing
things from the LRU.
The helper functions temporarily have some extra sanity checking for the
flag bits that have to match the current LRU state of the dentry. We'll
remove that before the final 3.12 release, but considering how easy it
is to get wrong, this first cleanup version has some very particular
sanity checking.

cifs: Avoid calling unlock_page() twice in cifs_readpage() when using fscache
When reading a single page with cifs_readpage(), we make a call to
fscache_read_or_alloc_page() which once done, asynchronously calls
the completion function cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete(). This
completion function unlocks the page once it has been populated from
cache. The module then attempts to unlock the page a second time in
cifs_readpage() which leads to warning messages.
In case of a successful call to fscache_read_or_alloc_page() we should skip
the second unlock_page() since this will be called by the
cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete() once the page has been populated by
fscache.
With the modifications to cifs_readpage_worker(), we will need to re-grab the
page lock in cifs_write_begin().
The problem was first noticed when testing new fscache patches for cifs.

MIPS: DECstation I/O ASIC DMA interrupt handling fix
This change complements commit
d0da7c002f7b2a93582187a9e3f73891a01d8ee4
and brings clear_ioasic_irq back, renaming it to clear_ioasic_dma_irq at
the same time, to make I/O ASIC DMA interrupts functional.
Unlike ordinary I/O ASIC interrupts DMA interrupts need to be deasserted
by software by writing 0 to the respective bit in I/O ASIC's System
Interrupt Register (SIR), similarly to how CP0.Cause.IP0 and CP0.Cause.IP1
bits are handled in the CPU (the difference is SIR DMA interrupt bits are
R/W0C so there's no need for an RMW cycle). Otherwise the handler is
reentered over and over again.
The only current user is the DEC LANCE Ethernet driver and its extremely
uncommon DMA memory error handler that does not care when exactly the
interrupt is cleared. Anticipating the use of DMA interrupts by the Zilog
SCC driver this change however exports clear_ioasic_dma_irq for device
drivers to choose the right application-specific sequence to clear the
request explicitly rather than calling it implicitly in the .irq_eoi
handler of `struct irq_chip'. Previously these interrupts were cleared in
the .end handler of the said structure, before it was removed.

MIPS: DECstation HRT initialization rearrangement
Not all I/O ASIC versions have the free-running counter implemented, an
early revision used in the 5000/1xx models aka 3MIN and 4MIN did not have
it. Therefore we cannot unconditionally use it as a clock source.
Fortunately if not implemented its register slot has a fixed value so it
is enough if we check for the value at the end of the calibration period
being the same as at the beginning.
This also means we need to look for another high-precision clock source on
the systems affected. The 5000/1xx can have an R4000SC processor
installed where the CP0 Count register can be used as a clock source.
Unfortunately all the R4k DECstations suffer from the missed timer
interrupt on CP0 Count reads erratum, so we cannot use the CP0 timer as a
clock source and a clock event both at a time. However we never need an
R4k clock event device because all DECstations have a DS1287A RTC chip
whose periodic interrupt can be used as a clock source.
This gives us the following four configuration possibilities for I/O ASIC
DECstations:
1. No I/O ASIC counter and no CP0 timer, e.g. R3k 5000/1xx (3MIN).
2. No I/O ASIC counter but the CP0 timer, i.e. R4k 5000/150 (4MIN).
3. The I/O ASIC counter but no CP0 timer, e.g. R3k 5000/240 (3MAX+).
4. The I/O ASIC counter and the CP0 timer, e.g. R4k 5000/260 (4MAX+).
For #1 and #2 this change stops the I/O ASIC free-running counter from
being installed as a clock source of a 0Hz frequency. For #2 it also
arranges for the CP0 timer to be used as a clock source rather than a
clock event device, because having an accurate wall clock is more
important than a high-precision interval timer. For #3 there is no
change. For #4 the change makes the I/O ASIC free-running counter
installed as a clock source so that the CP0 timer can be used as a clock
event device.
Unfortunately the use of the CP0 timer as a clock event device relies on a
succesful completion of c0_compare_interrupt. That never happens, because
while waiting for a CP0 Compare interrupt to happen the function spins in
a loop reading the CP0 Count register. This makes the CP0 Count erratum
trigger reliably causing the interrupt waited for to be lost in all cases.
As a result #4 resorts to using the CP0 timer as a clock source as well,
just as #2. However we want to keep this separate arrangement in case
(hope) c0_compare_interrupt is eventually rewritten such that it avoids
the erratum.

memcg: add per cgroup writeback pages accounting
Add memcg routines to count writeback pages, later dirty pages will also
be accounted.
After Kame's commit
89c06bd52fb9 ("memcg: use new logic for page stat
accounting"), we can use 'struct page' flag to test page state instead
of per page_cgroup flag. But memcg has a feature to move a page from a
cgroup to another one and may have race between "move" and "page stat
accounting". So in order to avoid the race we have designed a new lock:
mem_cgroup_begin_update_page_stat()
modify page information -->(a)
mem_cgroup_update_page_stat() -->(b)
mem_cgroup_end_update_page_stat()
It requires both (a) and (b)(writeback pages accounting) to be pretected
in mem_cgroup_{begin/end}_update_page_stat(). It's full no-op for
!CONFIG_MEMCG, almost no-op if memcg is disabled (but compiled in), rcu
read lock in the most cases (no task is moving), and spin_lock_irqsave
on top in the slow path.
There're two writeback interfaces to modify: test_{clear/set}_page_writeback().
And the lock order is:
--> memcg->move_lock
--> mapping->tree_lock

mm: memcg: do not trap chargers with full callstack on OOM
The memcg OOM handling is incredibly fragile and can deadlock. When a
task fails to charge memory, it invokes the OOM killer and loops right
there in the charge code until it succeeds. Comparably, any other task
that enters the charge path at this point will go to a waitqueue right
then and there and sleep until the OOM situation is resolved. The problem
is that these tasks may hold filesystem locks and the mmap_sem; locks that
the selected OOM victim may need to exit.
For example, in one reported case, the task invoking the OOM killer was
about to charge a page cache page during a write(), which holds the
i_mutex. The OOM killer selected a task that was just entering truncate()
and trying to acquire the i_mutex:
OOM invoking task:
mem_cgroup_handle_oom+0x241/0x3b0
mem_cgroup_cache_charge+0xbe/0xe0
add_to_page_cache_locked+0x4c/0x140
add_to_page_cache_lru+0x22/0x50
grab_cache_page_write_begin+0x8b/0xe0
ext3_write_begin+0x88/0x270
generic_file_buffered_write+0x116/0x290
__generic_file_aio_write+0x27c/0x480
generic_file_aio_write+0x76/0xf0 # takes ->i_mutex
do_sync_write+0xea/0x130
vfs_write+0xf3/0x1f0
sys_write+0x51/0x90
system_call_fastpath+0x18/0x1d
OOM kill victim:
do_truncate+0x58/0xa0 # takes i_mutex
do_last+0x250/0xa30
path_openat+0xd7/0x440
do_filp_open+0x49/0xa0
do_sys_open+0x106/0x240
sys_open+0x20/0x30
system_call_fastpath+0x18/0x1d
The OOM handling task will retry the charge indefinitely while the OOM
killed task is not releasing any resources.
A similar scenario can happen when the kernel OOM killer for a memcg is
disabled and a userspace task is in charge of resolving OOM situations.
In this case, ALL tasks that enter the OOM path will be made to sleep on
the OOM waitqueue and wait for userspace to free resources or increase
the group's limit. But a userspace OOM handler is prone to deadlock
itself on the locks held by the waiting tasks. For example one of the
sleeping tasks may be stuck in a brk() call with the mmap_sem held for
writing but the userspace handler, in order to pick an optimal victim,
may need to read files from /proc/<pid>, which tries to acquire the same
mmap_sem for reading and deadlocks.
This patch changes the way tasks behave after detecting a memcg OOM and
makes sure nobody loops or sleeps with locks held:
1. When OOMing in a user fault, invoke the OOM killer and restart the
fault instead of looping on the charge attempt. This way, the OOM
victim can not get stuck on locks the looping task may hold.
2. When OOMing in a user fault but somebody else is handling it
(either the kernel OOM killer or a userspace handler), don't go to
sleep in the charge context. Instead, remember the OOMing memcg in
the task struct and then fully unwind the page fault stack with
-ENOMEM. pagefault_out_of_memory() will then call back into the
memcg code to check if the -ENOMEM came from the memcg, and then
either put the task to sleep on the memcg's OOM waitqueue or just
restart the fault. The OOM victim can no longer get stuck on any
lock a sleeping task may hold.

mm: memcg: rework and document OOM waiting and wakeup
The memcg OOM handler open-codes a sleeping lock for OOM serialization
(trylock, wait, repeat) because the required locking is so specific to
memcg hierarchies. However, it would be nice if this construct would be
clearly recognizable and not be as obfuscated as it is right now. Clean
up as follows:
1. Remove the return value of mem_cgroup_oom_unlock()
2. Rename mem_cgroup_oom_lock() to mem_cgroup_oom_trylock().
3. Pull the prepare_to_wait() out of the memcg_oom_lock scope. This
makes it more obvious that the task has to be on the waitqueue
before attempting to OOM-trylock the hierarchy, to not miss any
wakeups before going to sleep. It just didn't matter until now
because it was all lumped together into the global memcg_oom_lock
spinlock section.
4. Pull the mem_cgroup_oom_notify() out of the memcg_oom_lock scope.
It is proctected by the hierarchical OOM-lock.
5. The memcg_oom_lock spinlock is only required to propagate the OOM
lock in any given hierarchy atomically. Restrict its scope to
mem_cgroup_oom_(trylock|unlock).
6. Do not wake up the waitqueue unconditionally at the end of the
function. Only the lockholder has to wake up the next in line
after releasing the lock.
Note that the lockholder kicks off the OOM-killer, which in turn
leads to wakeups from the uncharges of the exiting task. But a
contender is not guaranteed to see them if it enters the OOM path
after the OOM kills but before the lockholder releases the lock.
Thus there has to be an explicit wakeup after releasing the lock.
7. Put the OOM task on the waitqueue before marking the hierarchy as
under OOM as that is the point where we start to receive wakeups.
No point in listening before being on the waitqueue.
8. Likewise, unmark the hierarchy before finishing the sleep, for
symmetry.

x86: finish user fault error path with fatal signal
The x86 fault handler bails in the middle of error handling when the
task has a fatal signal pending. For a subsequent patch this is a
problem in OOM situations because it relies on pagefault_out_of_memory()
being called even when the task has been killed, to perform proper
per-task OOM state unwinding.
Shortcutting the fault like this is a rather minor optimization that
saves a few instructions in rare cases. Just remove it for

arch: mm: remove obsolete init OOM protection
The memcg code can trap tasks in the context of the failing allocation
until an OOM situation is resolved. They can hold all kinds of locks
(fs, mm) at this point, which makes it prone to deadlocking.
This series converts memcg OOM handling into a two step process that is
started in the charge context, but any waiting is done after the fault
stack is fully unwound.
Patches 1-4 prepare architecture handlers to support the new memcg
requirements, but in doing so they also remove old cruft and unify
out-of-memory behavior across architectures.
Patch 5 disables the memcg OOM handling for syscalls, readahead, kernel
faults, because they can gracefully unwind the stack with -ENOMEM. OOM
handling is restricted to user triggered faults that have no other
option.
Patch 6 reworks memcg's hierarchical OOM locking to make it a little
more obvious wth is going on in there: reduce locked regions, rename
locking functions, reorder and document.
Patch 7 implements the two-part OOM handling such that tasks are never
trapped with the full charge stack in an OOM situation.
This patch:
Back before smart OOM killing, when faulting tasks were killed directly on
allocation failures, the arch-specific fault handlers needed special
protection for the init process.
Now that all fault handlers call into the generic OOM killer (see commit
609838cfed97: "mm: invoke oom-killer from remaining unconverted page
fault handlers"), which already provides init protection, the
arch-specific leftovers can be removed.
