Poison pointer values should be small enough to find a room in
non-mmap'able/hardly-mmap'able space. E.g. on x86 "poison pointer space"
is located starting from 0x0. Given unprivileged users cannot mmap
anything below mmap_min_addr, it should be safe to use poison pointers
lower than mmap_min_addr.
The current poison pointer values of LIST_POISON{1,2} might be too big for
mmap_min_addr values equal or less than 1 MB (common case, e.g. Ubuntu
uses only 0x10000). There is little point to use such a big value given
the "poison pointer space" below 1 MB is not yet exhausted. Changing it
to a smaller value solves the problem for small mmap_min_addr setups.
The values are suggested by Solar Designer:

proc: change proc_subdir_lock to a rwlock
The proc_subdir_lock spinlock is used to allow only one task to make
change to the proc directory structure as well as looking up information
in it. However, the information lookup part can actually be entered by
more than one task as the pde_get() and pde_put() reference count update
calls in the critical sections are atomic increment and decrement
respectively and so are safe with concurrent updates.
The x86 architecture has already used qrwlock which is fair and other
architectures like ARM are in the process of switching to qrwlock. So
unfairness shouldn't be a concern in that conversion.
This patch changed the proc_subdir_lock to a rwlock in order to enable
concurrent lookup. The following functions were modified to take a
write lock:
- proc_register()
- remove_proc_entry()
- remove_proc_subtree()
The following functions were modified to take a read lock:
- xlate_proc_name()
- proc_lookup_de()
- proc_readdir_de()
A parallel /proc filesystem search with the "find" command (1000 threads)
was run on a 4-socket Haswell-EX box (144 threads). Before the patch, the
parallel search took about 39s. After the patch, the parallel find took
only 25s, a saving of about 14s.
The micro-benchmark that I used was artificial, but it was used to
reproduce an exit hanging problem that I saw in real application. In
fact, only allow one task to do a lookup seems too limiting to me.

procfs: always expose /proc/<pid>/map_files/ and make it readable
Currently, /proc/<pid>/map_files/ is restricted to CAP_SYS_ADMIN, and is
only exposed if CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is set.
Each mapped file region gets a symlink in /proc/<pid>/map_files/
corresponding to the virtual address range at which it is mapped. The
symlinks work like the symlinks in /proc/<pid>/fd/, so you can follow them
to the backing file even if that backing file has been unlinked.
Currently, files which are mapped, unlinked, and closed are impossible to
stat() from userspace. Exposing /proc/<pid>/map_files/ closes this
functionality "hole".
Not being able to stat() such files makes noticing and explicitly
accounting for the space they use on the filesystem impossible. You can
work around this by summing up the space used by every file in the
filesystem and subtracting that total from what statfs() tells you, but
that obviously isn't great, and it becomes unworkable once your filesystem
becomes large enough.
This patch moves map_files/ out from behind CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE, and
adjusts the permissions enforced on it as follows:
Remove the CAP_SYS_ADMIN restriction, leaving only the current
restriction requiring PTRACE_MODE_READ. The information made
available to userspace by these three functions is already
available in /proc/PID/maps with MODE_READ, so I don't see any
reason to limit them any further (see below for more detail).
* proc_map_files_follow_link()
This stub has been added, and requires that the user have
CAP_SYS_ADMIN in order to follow the links in map_files/,
since there was concern on LKML both about the potential for
bypassing permissions on ancestor directories in the path to
files pointed to, and about what happens with more exotic
memory mappings created by some drivers (ie dma-buf).
In older versions of this patch, I changed every permission check in
the four functions above to enforce MODE_ATTACH instead of MODE_READ.
This was an oversight on my part, and after revisiting the discussion
it seems that nobody was concerned about anything outside of what is
made possible by ->follow_link(). So in this version, I've left the
checks for PTRACE_MODE_READ as-is.

As noted by Minchan, a benefit of reading idle flag from /proc/kpageflags
is that one can easily filter dirty and/or unevictable pages while
estimating the size of unused memory.
Note that idle flag read from /proc/kpageflags may be stale in case the
page was accessed via a PTE, because it would be too costly to iterate
over all page mappings on each /proc/kpageflags read to provide an
up-to-date value. To make sure the flag is up-to-date one has to read
/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap first.

Knowing the portion of memory that is not used by a certain application or
memory cgroup (idle memory) can be useful for partitioning the system
efficiently, e.g. by setting memory cgroup limits appropriately.
Currently, the only means to estimate the amount of idle memory provided
by the kernel is /proc/PID/{clear_refs,smaps}: the user can clear the
access bit for all pages mapped to a particular process by writing 1 to
clear_refs, wait for some time, and then count smaps:Referenced. However,
this method has two serious shortcomings:
- it does not count unmapped file pages
- it affects the reclaimer logic
To overcome these drawbacks, this patch introduces two new page flags,
Idle and Young, and a new sysfs file, /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap.
A page's Idle flag can only be set from userspace by setting bit in
/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap at the offset corresponding to the page,
and it is cleared whenever the page is accessed either through page tables
(it is cleared in page_referenced() in this case) or using the read(2)
system call (mark_page_accessed()). Thus by setting the Idle flag for
pages of a particular workload, which can be found e.g. by reading
/proc/PID/pagemap, waiting for some time to let the workload access its
working set, and then reading the bitmap file, one can estimate the amount
of pages that are not used by the workload.
The Young page flag is used to avoid interference with the memory
reclaimer. A page's Young flag is set whenever the Access bit of a page
table entry pointing to the page is cleared by writing to the bitmap file.
If page_referenced() is called on a Young page, it will add 1 to its
return value, therefore concealing the fact that the Access bit was
cleared.
Note, since there is no room for extra page flags on 32 bit, this feature
uses extended page flags when compiled on 32 bit.

In the scope of the idle memory tracking feature, which is introduced by

in primary, but also in secondary ptes. The latter is required in order
to estimate wss of KVM VMs. At the same time we want to avoid flushing
tlb, because it is quite expensive and it won't really affect the final
result.
Currently, there is no function for clearing pte young bit that would meet
our requirements, so this patch introduces one. To achieve that we have
to add a new mmu-notifier callback, clear_young, since there is no method
for testing-and-clearing a secondary pte w/o flushing tlb. The new method
is not mandatory and currently only implemented by KVM.

This patchset introduces a new user API for tracking user memory pages
that have not been used for a given period of time. The purpose of this
is to provide the userspace with the means of tracking a workload's
working set, i.e. the set of pages that are actively used by the
workload. Knowing the working set size can be useful for partitioning the
system more efficiently, e.g. by tuning memory cgroup limits
appropriately, or for job placement within a compute cluster.
==== USE CASES ====
The unified cgroup hierarchy has memory.low and memory.high knobs, which
are defined as the low and high boundaries for the workload working set
size. However, the working set size of a workload may be unknown or
change in time. With this patch set, one can periodically estimate the
amount of memory unused by each cgroup and tune their memory.low and
memory.high parameters accordingly, therefore optimizing the overall
memory utilization.
Another use case is balancing workloads within a compute cluster. Knowing
how much memory is not really used by a workload unit may help take a more
optimal decision when considering migrating the unit to another node
within the cluster.
Also, as noted by Minchan, this would be useful for per-process reclaim
(https://lwn.net/Articles/545668/). With idle tracking, we could reclaim idle
pages only by smart user memory manager.
==== USER API ====
The user API consists of two new files:
* /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap. This file implements a bitmap where each
bit corresponds to a page, indexed by PFN. When the bit is set, the
corresponding page is idle. A page is considered idle if it has not been
accessed since it was marked idle. To mark a page idle one should set the
bit corresponding to the page by writing to the file. A value written to the
file is OR-ed with the current bitmap value. Only user memory pages can be
marked idle, for other page types input is silently ignored. Writing to this
file beyond max PFN results in the ENXIO error. Only available when
CONFIG_IDLE_PAGE_TRACKING is set.
This file can be used to estimate the amount of pages that are not
used by a particular workload as follows:
1. mark all pages of interest idle by setting corresponding bits in the
/sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap
2. wait until the workload accesses its working set
3. read /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap and count the number of bits set
* /proc/kpagecgroup. This file contains a 64-bit inode number of the
memory cgroup each page is charged to, indexed by PFN. Only available when
CONFIG_MEMCG is set.
This file can be used to find all pages (including unmapped file pages)
accounted to a particular cgroup. Using /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap, one
can then estimate the cgroup working set size.
For an example of using these files for estimating the amount of unused
memory pages per each memory cgroup, please see the script attached
below.
==== REASONING ====
The reason to introduce the new user API instead of using
/proc/PID/{clear_refs,smaps} is that the latter has two serious
drawbacks:
- it does not count unmapped file pages
- it affects the reclaimer logic
The new API attempts to overcome them both. For more details on how it
is achieved, please see the comment to patch 6.
==== PATCHSET STRUCTURE ====
The patch set is organized as follows:
- patch 1 adds page_cgroup_ino() helper for the sake of
/proc/kpagecgroup and patches 2-3 do related cleanup
- patch 4 adds /proc/kpagecgroup, which reports cgroup ino each page is
charged to
- patch 5 introduces a new mmu notifier callback, clear_young, which is
a lightweight version of clear_flush_young; it is used in patch 6
- patch 6 implements the idle page tracking feature, including the
userspace API, /sys/kernel/mm/page_idle/bitmap
- patch 7 exports idle flag via /proc/kpageflags
==== SIMILAR WORKS ====
Originally, the patch for tracking idle memory was proposed back in 2011
by Michel Lespinasse (see http://lwn.net/Articles/459269/). The main
difference between Michel's patch and this one is that Michel implemented
a kernel space daemon for estimating idle memory size per cgroup while
this patch only provides the userspace with the minimal API for doing the
job, leaving the rest up to the userspace. However, they both share the
same idea of Idle/Young page flags to avoid affecting the reclaimer logic.
==== PERFORMANCE EVALUATION ====
SPECjvm2008 (https://www.spec.org/jvm2008/) was used to evaluate the
performance impact introduced by this patch set. Three runs were carried
out:
- base: kernel without the patch
- patched: patched kernel, the feature is not used
- patched-active: patched kernel, 1 minute-period daemon is used for
tracking idle memory
For tracking idle memory, idlememstat utility was used:
https://github.com/locker/idlememstat
for dir, subdirs, files in os.walk(CGROUP_MOUNT):
ino = os.stat(dir)[stat.ST_INO]
print dir + ": " + str(idlememsz.get(ino, 0) / 1024) + " kB"
==== END SCRIPT ====
This patch (of 8):
Add page_cgroup_ino() helper to memcg.
This function returns the inode number of the closest online ancestor of
the memory cgroup a page is charged to. It is required for exporting
information about which page is charged to which cgroup to userspace,
which will be introduced by a following patch.

single zpool and single compressor, using one list is slightly simpler

Jana Iyengar found an interesting issue on CUBIC :
The epoch is only updated/reset initially and when experiencing losses.
The delta "t" of now - epoch_start can be arbitrary large after app idle
as well as the bic_target. Consequentially the slope (inverse of
ca->cnt) would be really large, and eventually ca->cnt would be
lower-bounded in the end to 2 to have delayed-ACK slow-start behavior.
This particularly shows up when slow_start_after_idle is disabled
as a dangerous cwnd inflation (1.5 x RTT) after few seconds of idle
time.
Jana initial fix was to reset epoch_start if app limited,
but Neal pointed out it would ask the CUBIC algorithm to recalculate the
curve so that we again start growing steeply upward from where cwnd is
now (as CUBIC does just after a loss). Ideally we'd want the cwnd growth
curve to be the same shape, just shifted later in time by the amount of
the idle period.

netlink, mmap: fix edge-case leakages in nf queue zero-copy
When netlink mmap on receive side is the consumer of nf queue data,
it can happen that in some edge cases, we write skb shared info into
the user space mmap buffer:
Assume a possible rx ring frame size of only 4096, and the network skb,
which is being zero-copied into the netlink skb, contains page frags
with an overall skb->len larger than the linear part of the netlink
skb.
skb_zerocopy(), which is generic and thus not aware of the fact that
shared info cannot be accessed for such skbs then tries to write and
fill frags, thus leaking kernel data/pointers and in some corner cases
possibly writing out of bounds of the mmap area (when filling the
last slot in the ring buffer this way).
I.e. the ring buffer slot is then of status NL_MMAP_STATUS_VALID, has
an advertised length larger than 4096, where the linear part is visible
at the slot beginning, and the leaked sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)
has been written to the beginning of the next slot (also corrupting
the struct nl_mmap_hdr slot header incl. status etc), since skb->end
points to skb->data + ring->frame_size - NL_MMAP_HDRLEN.
The fix adds and lets __netlink_alloc_skb() take the actual needed
linear room for the network skb + meta data into account. It's completely
irrelevant for non-mmaped netlink sockets, but in case mmap sockets
are used, it can be decided whether the available skb_tailroom() is
really large enough for the buffer, or whether it needs to internally
fallback to a normal alloc_skb().
>From nf queue side, the information whether the destination port is
an mmap RX ring is not really available without extra port-to-socket
lookup, thus it can only be determined in lower layers i.e. when
__netlink_alloc_skb() is called that checks internally for this. I
chose to add the extra ldiff parameter as mmap will then still work:
We have data_len and hlen in nfqnl_build_packet_message(), data_len
is the full length (capped at queue->copy_range) for skb_zerocopy()
and hlen some possible part of data_len that needs to be copied; the
rem_len variable indicates the needed remaining linear mmap space.
The only other workaround in nf queue internally would be after
allocation time by f.e. cap'ing the data_len to the skb_tailroom()
iff we deal with an mmap skb, but that would 1) expose the fact that
we use a mmap skb to upper layers, and 2) trim the skb where we
otherwise could just have moved the full skb into the normal receive
queue.
After the patch, in my test case the ring slot doesn't fit and therefore
shows NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY, where a full skb carries all the data and
thus needs to be picked up via recv().

netlink, mmap: don't walk rx ring on poll if receive queue non-empty
In case of netlink mmap, there can be situations where received frames
have to be placed into the normal receive queue. The ring buffer indicates
this through NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY, so the user is asked to pick them up
via recvmsg(2) syscall, and to put the slot back to NL_MMAP_STATUS_UNUSED.
Commit 0ef707700f1c ("netlink: rx mmap: fix POLLIN condition") changed
polling, so that we walk in the worst case the whole ring through the
new netlink_has_valid_frame(), for example, when the ring would have no
NL_MMAP_STATUS_VALID, but at least one NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY frame.
Since we do a datagram_poll() already earlier to pick up a mask that could
possibly contain POLLIN | POLLRDNORM already (due to NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY),
we can skip checking the rx ring entirely.
In case the kernel is compiled with !CONFIG_NETLINK_MMAP, then all this is
irrelevant anyway as netlink_poll() is just defined as datagram_poll().

net: ipv6: use common fib_default_rule_pref
This switches IPv6 policy routing to use the shared

The motivation for this patch is a complaint about iproute2 behaving
inconsistent between IPv4 and IPv6 when adding policy rules: Formerly,
IPv6 rules were assigned a fixed priority of 0x3FFF whereas for IPv4 the
assigned priority value was decreased with each rule added.
Since then all users of the default_pref field have been converted to
assign the generic function fib_default_rule_pref(), fib_nl_newrule()
may just use it directly instead. Therefore get rid of the function
pointer altogether and make fib_default_rule_pref() static, as it's not

Problem:
The ecmp route replace support for ipv6 in the kernel, deletes the
existing ecmp route too early, ie when it installs the first nexthop.
If there is an error in installing the subsequent nexthops, its too late
to recover the already deleted existing route leaving the fib
in an inconsistent state.
This patch reduces the possibility of this by doing the following:
a) Changes the existing multipath route add code to a two stage process:
build rt6_infos + insert them
ip6_route_add rt6_info creation code is moved into
ip6_route_info_create.
b) This ensures that most errors are caught during building rt6_infos
and we fail early
c) Separates multipath add and del code. Because add needs the special
two stage mode in a) and delete essentially does not care.
d) In any event if the code fails during inserting a route again, a
warning is printed (This should be unlikely)

fix ufs write vs readpage race when writing into a hole
Followup to the UFS series - with the way we clear the new blocks (via
buffer cache, possibly on more than a page worth of file) we really
should not insert a reference to new block into inode block tree until
after we'd cleared it.

dax: update PMD fault handler with PMEM API
As part of the v4.3 merge window the DAX code was updated by Matthew and
Kirill to handle PMD pages. Also as part of the v4.3 merge window we
updated the DAX code to do proper PMEM flushing (commit 2765cfbb342c:
"dax: update I/O path to do proper PMEM flushing").
The additional code added by the DAX PMD patches also needs to be
updated to properly use the PMEM API. This ensures that after a PMD
fault is handled the zeros written to the newly allocated pages are
durable on the DIMMs.
linux/dax.h is included to get rid of a bunch of sparse warnings.

"This is a fairly sizeable set of changes. I've put them through a
decent amount of testing prior to sending the pull request due to
that.
There are still a few fixups that I know are coming, but I wanted to
go ahead and get the big, sizable chunk into your hands sooner rather
than waiting for those last few fixups.
Of note is the fact that this creates what is intended to be a
temporary area in the drivers/staging tree specifically for some
cleanups and additions that are coming for the RDMA stack. We
deprecated two drivers (ipath and amso1100) and are waiting to hear
back if we can deprecate another one (ehca). We also put Intel's new
hfi1 driver into this area because it needs to be refactored and a
transfer library created out of the factored out code, and then it and
the qib driver and the soft-roce driver should all be modified to use
that library.
I expect drivers/staging/rdma to be around for three or four kernel
releases and then to go away as all of the work is completed and final
deletions of deprecated drivers are done.
Summary of changes for 4.3:
- Create drivers/staging/rdma
- Move amso1100 driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
- Move ipath driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
- Add hfi1 driver to staging/rdma and set TODO for move to regular
tree
- Initial support for namespaces to be used on RDMA devices
- Add RoCE GID table handling to the RDMA core caching code
- Infrastructure to support handling of devices with differing read
and write scatter gather capabilities
- Various iSER updates
- Kill off unsafe usage of global mr registrations
- Update SRP driver
- Misc mlx4 driver updates
- Support for the mr_alloc verb
- Support for a netlink interface between kernel and user space cache
daemon to speed path record queries and route resolution
- Ininitial support for safe hot removal of verbs devices"

NXP LPC SoCs family, which includes LPC18xx/LPC43xx, provides a State
Configurable Timer (SCT) which can be configured as a Pulse Width
Modulator. Other SoCs in that family may share the same hardware.
The PWM supports a total of 16 channels, but only 15 can be simultaneously
requested. There's only one period, global to all the channels, thus PWM
driver will refuse setting different values to it, unless there's only one
channel requested.

drm/i915: Limit the number of loops for reading a split 64bit register
In I915_READ64_2x32 we attempt to read a 64bit register using 2 32bit
reads. Due to the nature of the registers we try to read in this manner,
they may increment between the two instruction (e.g. a timestamp
counter). To keep the result accurate, we repeat the read if we detect
an overflow (i.e. the upper value varies). However, some hardware is just
plain flaky and may endless loop as the the upper 32bits are not stable.
Just give up after a couple of tries and report whatever we read last.
v2: Use the most recent values when erring out on an unstable register.

net: tipc: fix stall during bclink wakeup procedure
If an attempt to wake up users of broadcast link is made when there is
no enough place in send queue than it may hang up inside the
tipc_sk_rcv() function since the loop breaks only after the wake up
queue becomes empty. This can lead to complete CPU stall with the
following message generated by RCU:
The issue occurs only when tipc_sk_rcv() is used to wake up postponed
senders:
tipc_bclink_wakeup_users()
// wakeupq - is a queue which consists of special
// messages with SOCK_WAKEUP type.
tipc_sk_rcv(wakeupq)
...
while (skb_queue_len(inputq)) {
filter_rcv(skb)
// Here the type of message is checked
// and if it is SOCK_WAKEUP then
// it tries to wake up a sender.
tipc_write_space(sk)
wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll()
}
After the sender thread is woke up it can gather control and perform
an attempt to send a message. But if there is no enough place in send
queue it will call link_schedule_user() function which puts a message
of type SOCK_WAKEUP to the wakeup queue and put the sender to sleep.
Thus the size of the queue actually is not changed and the while()
loop never exits.
The approach I proposed is to wake up only senders for which there is
enough place in send queue so the described issue can't occur.
Moreover the same approach is already used to wake up senders on
unicast links.
I have got into the issue on our product code but to reproduce the
issue I changed a benchmark test application (from
tipcutils/demos/benchmark) to perform the following scenario:
1. Run 64 instances of test application (nodes). It can be done
on the one physical machine.
2. Each application connects to all other using TIPC sockets in
RDM mode.
3. When setup is done all nodes start simultaneously send
broadcast messages.
4. Everything hangs up.
The issue is reproducible only when a congestion on broadcast link
occurs. For example, when there are only 8 nodes it works fine since
congestion doesn't occur. Send queue limit is 40 in my case (I use a
critical importance level) and when 64 nodes send a message at the
same moment a congestion occurs every time.

net: dsa: bcm_sf2: Fix ageing conditions and operation
The comparison check between cur_hw_state and hw_state is currently
invalid because cur_hw_state is right shifted by G_MISTP_SHIFT, while
hw_state is not, so we end-up comparing bits 2:0 with bits 7:5, which is
going to cause an additional aging to occur. Fix this by not shifting
cur_hw_state while reading it, but instead, mask the value with the
appropriately shitfted bitmask.
The other problem with the fast-ageing process is that we did not set
the EN_AGE_DYNAMIC bit to request the ageing to occur for dynamically
learned MAC addresses. Finally, write back 0 to the FAST_AGE_CTRL
register to avoid leaving spurious bits sets from one operation to the
other.
