Kirill A. Shutemov ee53664bda mm: Fix NULL pointer dereference in madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support
Sasha Levin found a NULL pointer dereference that is due to a missing
page table lock, which in turn is due to the pmd entry in question being
a transparent huge-table entry.

The code - introduced in commit 1998cc0489 ("mm: make
madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support swap file prefetch") - correctly checks
for this situation using pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), but it
turns out that that function doesn't work correctly.

pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() expected that pmd_bad() would
trigger if the transparent hugepage bit was set, but it doesn't do that
if pmd_numa() is also set. Note that the NUMA bit only gets set on real
NUMA machines, so people trying to reproduce this on most normal
development systems would never actually trigger this.

Fix it by removing the very subtle (and subtly incorrect) expectation,
and instead just checking pmd_trans_huge() explicitly.

[ Additionally remove the now stale test for pmd_trans_huge() inside the
  pmd_bad() case - Linus ]

Rik van Riel 2084140594 mm: fix TLB flush race between migration, and change_protection_range
There are a few subtle races, between change_protection_range (used by
mprotect and change_prot_numa) on one side, and NUMA page migration and
compaction on the other side.

The basic race is that there is a time window between when the PTE gets
made non-present (PROT_NONE or NUMA), and the TLB is flushed.

During that time, a CPU may continue writing to the page.

This is fine most of the time, however compaction or the NUMA migration
code may come in, and migrate the page away.

When that happens, the CPU may continue writing, through the cached
translation, to what is no longer the current memory location of the
process.

This only affects x86, which has a somewhat optimistic pte_accessible.
All other architectures appear to be safe, and will either always flush,
or flush whenever there is a valid mapping, even with no permissions
(SPARC).

The basic race looks like this:

CPU A			CPU B			CPU C

						load TLB entry
make entry PTE/PMD_NUMA
			fault on entry
						read/write old page
			start migrating page
			change PTE/PMD to new page
						read/write old page [*]
flush TLB
						reload TLB from new entry
						read/write new page
						lose data

[*] the old page may belong to a new user at this point!

The obvious fix is to flush remote TLB entries, by making sure that
pte_accessible aware of the fact that PROT_NONE and PROT_NUMA memory may
still be accessible if there is a TLB flush pending for the mm.

This should fix both NUMA migration and compaction.

Will Deacon 11ec50caed word-at-a-time: provide generic big-endian zero_bytemask implementation
Whilst architectures may be able to do better than this (which they can,
by simply defining their own macro), this is a generic stab at a
zero_bytemask implementation for the asm-generic, big-endian
word-at-a-time implementation.

On arm64, a clz instruction is used to implement the fls efficiently.

Peter Zijlstra ba1f14fbe7 sched: Remove PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED from generic code
While hunting a preemption issue with Alexander, Ben noticed that the
currently generic PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED stuff is horribly broken for
load-store architectures.

We currently rely on the IPI to fold TIF_NEED_RESCHED into
PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED, but when this IPI lands while we already have
a load for the preempt-count but before the store, the store will erase
the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED change.

The current preempt-count only works on load-store archs because
interrupts are assumed to be completely balanced wrt their preempt_count
fiddling; the previous preempt_count load will match the preempt_count
state after the interrupt and therefore nothing gets lost.

This patch removes the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED usage from generic code and
pushes it into x86 arch code; the generic code goes back to relying on
TIF_NEED_RESCHED.

Boot tested on x86_64 and compile tested on ppc64.

Alexandre Courbot 79a9becda8 gpiolib: export descriptor-based GPIO interface
This patch exports the gpiod_* family of API functions, a safer
alternative to the legacy GPIO interface. Differences between the gpiod
and legacy gpio APIs are:

- gpio works with integers, whereas gpiod operates on opaque handlers
  which cannot be forged or used before proper acquisition
- gpiod get/set functions are aware of the active low state of a GPIO
- gpio consumers should now include <linux/gpio/consumer.h> to access
  the new interface, whereas chips drivers will use
  <linux/gpio/driver.h>

The legacy gpio API is now built as inline functions on top of gpiod.

Linus Walleij d468bf9eca gpio: add API to be strict about GPIO IRQ usage
It is currently often possible in many GPIO drivers to request
a GPIO line to be used as IRQ after calling gpio_to_irq() and,
as the gpiolib is not aware of this, set the same line to
output and start driving it, with undesired side effects.

As it is a bogus usage scenario to request a line flagged as
output to used as IRQ, we introduce APIs to let gpiolib track
the use of a line as IRQ, and also set this flag from the
userspace ABI.

The API is symmetric so that lines can also be flagged from
.irq_enable() and unflagged from IRQ by .irq_disable().
The debugfs file is altered so that we see if a line is
reserved for IRQ.

David Miller 2679494246 mm: Fix generic hugetlb pte check return type.
The include/asm-generic/hugetlb.h stubs that just vector huge_pte_*()
calls to the pte_*() implementations won't work in certain situations.

x86 and sparc, for example, return "unsigned long" from the bit
checks, and just go "return pte_val(pte) & PTE_BIT_FOO;"

But since huge_pte_*() returns 'int', if any high bits on 64-bit are
relevant, they get chopped off.

The net effect is that we can loop forever trying to COW a huge page,
because the huge_pte_write() check signals false all the time.

Yuanhan reported a serious throughput regression in his pigz
benchmark. Using the ftrace patch I found that several idle
paths need more TLC before we can switch the generic
need_resched() over to preempt_need_resched.

The preemption paths benefit most from preempt_need_resched and
do indeed use it; all other need_resched() users don't really
care that much so reverting need_resched() back to
tif_need_resched() is the simple and safe solution.

The last remaining use for the storage key of the s390 architecture
is reference counting. The alternative is to make page table entries
invalid while they are old. On access the fault handler marks the
pte/pmd as young which makes the pte/pmd valid if the access rights
allow read access. The pte/pmd invalidations required for software
managed reference bits cost a bit of performance, on the other hand
the RRBE/RRBM instructions to read and reset the referenced bits are
quite expensive as well.

dma_contiguous_reserve_area() which only steals the the memory from
memblock allocator and dma_contiguous_add_device() function, which
assigns given device to the specified reserved memory area. This improves
the flexibility in defining contiguous memory areas and assigning device
to them, because now it is possible to assign more than one device to
the given contiguous memory area. Such split in initialization procedure
is also required for upcoming device tree support.

Linus Torvalds 2b047252d0 Fix TLB gather virtual address range invalidation corner cases
Ben Tebulin reported:

 "Since v3.7.2 on two independent machines a very specific Git
  repository fails in 9/10 cases on git-fsck due to an SHA1/memory
  failures.  This only occurs on a very specific repository and can be
  reproduced stably on two independent laptops.  Git mailing list ran
  out of ideas and for me this looks like some very exotic kernel issue"

and bisected the failure to the backport of commit 53a59fc67f ("mm:
limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT").

That commit itself is not actually buggy, but what it does is to make it
much more likely to hit the partial TLB invalidation case, since it
introduces a new case in tlb_next_batch() that previously only ever
happened when running out of memory.

The real bug is that the TLB gather virtual memory range setup is subtly
buggered.  It was introduced in commit 597e1c3580 ("mm/mmu_gather:
enable tlb flush range in generic mmu_gather"), and the range handling
was already fixed at least once in commit e6c495a96c ("mm: fix the TLB
range flushed when __tlb_remove_page() runs out of slots"), but that fix
was not complete.

The problem with the TLB gather virtual address range is that it isn't
set up by the initial tlb_gather_mmu() initialization (which didn't get
the TLB range information), but it is set up ad-hoc later by the
functions that actually flush the TLB.  And so any such case that forgot
to update the TLB range entries would potentially miss TLB invalidates.

Rather than try to figure out exactly which particular ad-hoc range
setup was missing (I personally suspect it's the hugetlb case in
zap_huge_pmd(), which didn't have the same logic as zap_pte_range()
did), this patch just gets rid of the problem at the source: make the
TLB range information available to tlb_gather_mmu(), and initialize it
when initializing all the other tlb gather fields.

This makes the patch larger, but conceptually much simpler.  And the end
result is much more understandable; even if you want to play games with
partial ranges when invalidating the TLB contents in chunks, now the
range information is always there, and anybody who doesn't want to
bother with it won't introduce subtle bugs.

Ben verified that this fixes his problem.

Cyrill Gorcunov 179ef71cbc mm: save soft-dirty bits on swapped pages
Andy Lutomirski reported that if a page with _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit set
get swapped out, the bit is getting lost and no longer available when
pte read back.

To resolve this we introduce _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit which is saved in
pte entry for the page being swapped out.  When such page is to be read
back from a swap cache we check for bit presence and if it's there we
clear it and restore the former _PAGE_SOFT_DIRTY bit back.

One of the problem was to find a place in pte entry where we can save
the _PTE_SWP_SOFT_DIRTY bit while page is in swap.  The _PAGE_PSE was
chosen for that, it doesn't intersect with swap entry format stored in
pte.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 102c9323c3 tracing: Add __tracepoint_string() to export string pointers
There are several tracepoints (mostly in RCU), that reference a string
pointer and uses the print format of "%s" to display the string that
exists in the kernel, instead of copying the actual string to the
ring buffer (saves time and ring buffer space).

But this has an issue with userspace tools that read the binary buffers
that has the address of the string but has no access to what the string
itself is. The end result is just output that looks like:

 rcu_dyntick:          ffffffff818adeaa 1 0
 rcu_dyntick:          ffffffff818adeb5 0 140000000000000
 rcu_dyntick:          ffffffff818adeb5 0 140000000000000
 rcu_utilization:      ffffffff8184333b
 rcu_utilization:      ffffffff8184333b

The above is pretty useless when read by the userspace tools. Ideally
we would want something that looks like this:

 rcu_dyntick:          Start 1 0
 rcu_dyntick:          End 0 140000000000000
 rcu_dyntick:          Start 140000000000000 0
 rcu_callback:         rcu_preempt rhp=0xffff880037aff710 func=put_cred_rcu 0/4
 rcu_callback:         rcu_preempt rhp=0xffff880078961980 func=file_free_rcu 0/5
 rcu_dyntick:          End 0 1

The trace_printk() which also only stores the address of the string
format instead of recording the string into the buffer itself, exports
the mapping of kernel addresses to format strings via the printk_format
file in the debugfs tracing directory.

The tracepoint strings can use this same method and output the format
to the same file and the userspace tools will be able to decipher
the address without any modification.

The tracepoint strings need its own section to save the strings because
the trace_printk section will cause the trace_printk() buffers to be
allocated if anything exists within the section. trace_printk() is only
used for debugging and should never exist in the kernel, we can not use
the trace_printk sections.

Add a new tracepoint_str section that will also be examined by the output
of the printk_format file.

Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "This is the powerpc changes for the 3.11 merge window.  In addition to
  the usual bug fixes and small updates, the main highlights are:

   - Support for transparent huge pages by Aneesh Kumar for 64-bit
     server processors.  This allows the use of 16M pages as transparent
     huge pages on kernels compiled with a 64K base page size.

   - Base VFIO support for KVM on power by Alexey Kardashevskiy

   - Wiring up of our nvram to the pstore infrastructure, including
     putting compressed oopses in there by Aruna Balakrishnaiah

   - Move, rework and improve our "EEH" (basically PCI error handling
     and recovery) infrastructure.  It is no longer specific to pseries
     but is now usable by the new "powernv" platform as well (no
     hypervisor) by Gavin Shan.

   - I fixed some bugs in our math-emu instruction decoding and made it
     usable to emulate some optional FP instructions on processors with
     hard FP that lack them (such as fsqrt on Freescale embedded
     processors).

   - Support for Power8 "Event Based Branch" facility by Michael
     Ellerman.  This facility allows what is basically "userspace
     interrupts" for performance monitor events.

   - A bunch of Transactional Memory vs.  Signals bug fixes and HW
     breakpoint/watchpoint fixes by Michael Neuling.

  And more ...  I appologize in advance if I've failed to highlight
  something that somebody deemed worth it."

Alexandre Bounine 2ec3ba69fa rapidio: convert switch drivers to modules
Rework RapidIO switch drivers to add an option to build them as loadable
kernel modules.

This patch removes RapidIO-specific vmlinux section and converts switch
drivers to be compatible with LDM driver registration method.  To simplify
registration of device-specific callback routines this patch introduces
rio_switch_ops data structure.  The sw_sysfs() callback is removed from
the list of device-specific operations because under the new structure its
functions can be handled by switch driver's probe() and remove() routines.

If a specific switch device driver is not loaded the RapidIO subsystem
core will use default standard-based operations to configure a switch.
Because the current implementation of RapidIO enumeration/discovery method
relies on availability of device-specific operations for error management,
switch device drivers must be loaded before the RapidIO
enumeration/discovery starts.

This patch also moves several common routines from enumeration/discovery
module into the RapidIO core code to make switch-specific operations
accessible to all components of RapidIO subsystem.

Jiang Liu 1622d1abdf vmlinux.lds: add comments for global variables and clean up useless declarations
The original goal of this patchset is to fix the bug reported by
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53501 Now it has also been
expanded to reduce common code used by memory initializion.

Patch 1-7:
	1) add comments for global variables exported by vmlinux.lds
	2) normalize global variables exported by vmlinux.lds
Patch 8:
	Introduce helper functions mem_init_print_info() and
	get_num_physpages()
Patch 9:
	Avoid using global variable num_physpages at runtime
Patch 10:
	Don't update num_physpages in memory_hotplug.c
Patch 11-40:
	Modify arch mm initialization code to:
	1) Simplify mem_init() by using mem_init_print_info()
	2) Prepare for killing global variable num_physpages
Patch 41:
	Kill the global variable num_physpages

With all patches applied, mem_init(), free_initmem(), free_initrd_mem()
could be as simple as below.  This patch series has reduced about 1.2K
lines of code in total.

#ifndef CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM
void __init
mem_init(void)
{
	max_mapnr = max_low_pfn;
	free_all_bootmem();
	high_memory = (void *) __va(max_low_pfn * PAGE_SIZE);

	mem_init_print_info(NULL);
}
#endif /* CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM */

void
free_initmem(void)
{
	free_initmem_default(-1);
}

#ifdef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD
void
free_initrd_mem(unsigned long start, unsigned long end)
{
	free_reserved_area(start, end, -1, "initrd");
}
#endif

Due to hardware resource limitations, I have only tested this on x86_64.
And the messages reported on an x86_64 system are:

Log message before applying patches:
Memory: 7745676k/8910848k available (6934k kernel code, 836024k absent, 329148k reserved, 6343k data, 1012k init)

Great thanks to Vineet Gupta for testing on ARC.

This patch:

Document global variables exported from vmlinux.lds.

1) Add comments about usage guidelines for global variables exported
   from vmlinux.lds.S.
2) Remove unused __initdata_begin[] and __initdata_end[].

Pavel Emelyanov 0f8975ec4d mm: soft-dirty bits for user memory changes tracking
The soft-dirty is a bit on a PTE which helps to track which pages a task
writes to.  In order to do this tracking one should

  1. Clear soft-dirty bits from PTEs ("echo 4 > /proc/PID/clear_refs)
  2. Wait some time.
  3. Read soft-dirty bits (55'th in /proc/PID/pagemap2 entries)

To do this tracking, the writable bit is cleared from PTEs when the
soft-dirty bit is.  Thus, after this, when the task tries to modify a
page at some virtual address the #PF occurs and the kernel sets the
soft-dirty bit on the respective PTE.

Note, that although all the task's address space is marked as r/o after
the soft-dirty bits clear, the #PF-s that occur after that are processed
fast.  This is so, since the pages are still mapped to physical memory,
and thus all the kernel does is finds this fact out and puts back
writable, dirty and soft-dirty bits on the PTE.

Another thing to note, is that when mremap moves PTEs they are marked
with soft-dirty as well, since from the user perspective mremap modifies
the virtual memory at mremap's new address.

Pull voluntary preemption fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree contains a speedup which is achieved through better
  might_sleep()/might_fault() preemption point annotations for uaccess
  functions, by Michael S Tsirkin:

  1. The only reason uaccess routines might sleep is if they fault.
     Make this explicit for all architectures.

  2. A voluntary preemption point in uaccess functions means compiler
     can't inline them efficiently, this breaks assumptions that they
     are very fast and small that e.g.  net code seems to make.  Remove
     this preemption point so behaviour matches with what callers
     assume.

  3. Accesses (e.g through socket ops) to kernel memory with KERNEL_DS
     like net/sunrpc does will never sleep.  Remove an unconditinal
     might_sleep() in the might_fault() inline in kernel.h (used when
     PROVE_LOCKING is not set).

  4. Accesses with pagefault_disable() return EFAULT but won't cause
     caller to sleep.  Check for that and thus avoid might_sleep() when
     PROVE_LOCKING is set.

  These changes offer a nice speedup for CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y
  kernels, here's a network bandwidth measurement between a virtual
  machine and the host:

   before:
        incoming: 7122.77   Mb/s

        outgoing: 9455.42   Mb/s   [ +11.5% ]

  Wound/wait mutexes are used when other multiple lock acquisitions of a

  used here is called wait/wound in the RDBMS literature: The older
