Shaohua Li ec8acf20af swap: add per-partition lock for swapfile
swap_lock is heavily contended when I test swap to 3 fast SSD (even
slightly slower than swap to 2 such SSD).  The main contention comes
from swap_info_get().  This patch tries to fix the gap with adding a new
per-partition lock.

Global data like nr_swapfiles, total_swap_pages, least_priority and
swap_list are still protected by swap_lock.

nr_swap_pages is an atomic now, it can be changed without swap_lock.  In
theory, it's possible get_swap_page() finds no swap pages but actually
there are free swap pages.  But sounds not a big problem.

Accessing partition specific data (like scan_swap_map and so on) is only
protected by swap_info_struct.lock.

Changing swap_info_struct.flags need hold swap_lock and
swap_info_struct.lock, because scan_scan_map() will check it.  read the
flags is ok with either the locks hold.

If both swap_lock and swap_info_struct.lock must be hold, we always hold
the former first to avoid deadlock.

swap_entry_free() can change swap_list.  To delete that code, we add a
new highest_priority_index.  Whenever get_swap_page() is called, we
check it.  If it's valid, we use it.

It's a pity get_swap_page() still holds swap_lock().  But in practice,
swap_lock() isn't heavily contended in my test with this patch (or I can
say there are other much more heavier bottlenecks like TLB flush).  And
BTW, looks get_swap_page() doesn't really need the lock.  We never free
swap_info[] and we check SWAP_WRITEOK flag.  The only risk without the
lock is we could swapout to some low priority swap, but we can quickly
recover after several rounds of swap, so sounds not a big deal to me.
But I'd prefer to fix this if it's a real problem.

"swap: make each swap partition have one address_space" improved the
swapout speed from 1.7G/s to 2G/s.  This patch further improves the
speed to 2.3G/s, so around 15% improvement.  It's a multi-process test,
so TLB flush isn't the biggest bottleneck before the patches.

Wen Congyang 24d335ca36 memory-hotplug: introduce new arch_remove_memory() for removing page table
For removing memory, we need to remove page tables.  But it depends on
architecture.  So the patch introduce arch_remove_memory() for removing
page table.  Now it only calls __remove_pages().

Note: __remove_pages() for some archtecuture is not implemented
      (I don't know how to implement it for s390).

Linus Torvalds 9977d9b379 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal
Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
 "All architectures are converted to new model.  Quite a bit of that
  stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
  literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.

  A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):

   - kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.

     We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
     or kernel_execve():

     kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
     return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
     successful do_execve() before returning.

     kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
     do transition to user mode anymore.

     As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
     arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
     resp.  sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
     architecture-independent.

   - daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c

   - struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
     copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.

   - sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
     still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
     pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
     kernel/fork.c now."

Shaohua Li 45cac65b0f readahead: fault retry breaks mmap file read random detection
.fault now can retry.  The retry can break state machine of .fault.  In
filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased.  In the second
try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased.  And
these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access.

Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once.  In the second try, skip
ra->mmap_miss decreasing.  The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it.

I only tested x86, didn't test other archs, but looks the change for other
archs is obvious, but who knows :)

Chris Metcalf bbaa22c3a0 tilegx pci: support I/O to arbitrarily-cached pages
The tilegx PCI root complex support (currently only in linux-next)
is limited to pages that are homed on cached in the default manner,
i.e. "hash-for-home".  This change supports delivery of I/O data to
pages that are cached in other ways (locally on a particular core,
uncached, user-managed incoherent, etc.).

A large part of the change is supporting flushing pages from cache
on particular homes so that we can transition the data that we are
delivering to or from the device appropriately.  The new homecache_finv*
routines handle this.

Some changes to page_table_range_init() were also required to make
the fixmap code work correctly on tilegx; it hadn't been used there
before.

We also remove some stub mark_caches_evicted_*() routines that
were just no-ops anyway.

Chris Metcalf 621b195515 arch/tile: support multiple huge page sizes dynamically
This change adds support for a new "super" bit in the PTE, using the new
arch_make_huge_pte() method.  The Tilera hypervisor sees the bit set at a
given level of the page table and gangs together 4, 16, or 64 consecutive
pages from that level of the hierarchy to create a larger TLB entry.

One extra "super" page size can be specified at each of the three levels
of the page table hierarchy on tilegx, using the "hugepagesz" argument
on the boot command line.  A new hypervisor API is added to allow Linux
to tell the hypervisor how many PTEs to gang together at each level of
the page table.

To allow pre-allocating huge pages larger than the buddy allocator can
handle, this change modifies the Tilera bootmem support to put all of
memory on tilegx platforms into bootmem.

As part of this change I eliminate the vestigial CONFIG_HIGHPTE support,
which never worked anyway, and eliminate the hv_page_size() API in favor
of the standard vma_kernel_pagesize() API.

Chris Metcalf d5d14ed6f2 arch/tile: Allow tilegx to build with either 16K or 64K page size
This change introduces new flags for the hv_install_context()
API that passes a page table pointer to the hypervisor.  Clients
can explicitly request 4K, 16K, or 64K small pages when they
install a new context.  In practice, the page size is fixed at
kernel compile time and the same size is always requested every
time a new page table is installed.

The <hv/hypervisor.h> header changes so that it provides more abstract
macros for managing "page" things like PFNs and page tables.  For
example there is now a HV_DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL instead of the old
HV_PAGE_SIZE_SMALL.  The various PFN routines have been eliminated and
only PA- or PTFN-based ones remain (since PTFNs are always expressed
in fixed 2KB "page" size).  The page-table management macros are
renamed with a leading underscore and take page-size arguments with
the presumption that clients will use those macros in some single
place to provide the "real" macros they will use themselves.

I happened to notice the old hv_set_caching() API was totally broken
(it assumed 4KB pages) so I changed it so it would nominally work
correctly with other page sizes.

Tag modules with the page size so you can't load a module built with
a conflicting page size.  (And add a test for SMP while we're at it.)

Chris Metcalf 51007004f4 arch/tile: use interrupt critical sections less
In general we want to avoid ever touching memory while within an
interrupt critical section, since the page fault path goes through
a different path from the hypervisor when in an interrupt critical
section, and we carefully decided with tilegx that we didn't need
to support this path in the kernel.  (On tilepro we did implement
that path as part of supporting atomic instructions in software.)

In practice we always need to touch the kernel stack, since that's
where we store the interrupt state before releasing the critical
section, but this change cleans up a few things.  The IRQ_ENABLE
macro is split up so that when we want to enable interrupts in a
deferred way (e.g. for cpu_idle or for interrupt return) we can
read the per-cpu enable mask before entering the critical section.
The cache-migration code is changed to use interrupt masking instead
of interrupt critical sections.  And, the interrupt-entry code is
changed so that we defer loading "tp" from per-cpu data until after
we have released the interrupt critical section.

  optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().

  This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
  asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.

  The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h.  It holds a number of
  low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
  memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
  aren't used in many places (eg.  switch_to()).

  These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:

    (1) asm/barrier.h

        Move memory barriers here.  This already done for MIPS and Alpha.

    (2) asm/switch_to.h

        Move switch_to() and related stuff here.

    (3) asm/exec.h

        Move arch_align_stack() here.  Other process execution related bits
        could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.

    (4) asm/cmpxchg.h

        Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
        frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().

    (5) asm/bug.h

        Move die() and related bits.

    (6) asm/auxvec.h

        Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.

  Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."

Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that.  We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

Jason Baron 909af768e8 coredump: remove VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag
The motivation for this patchset was that I was looking at a way for a
qemu-kvm process, to exclude the guest memory from its core dump, which
can be quite large.  There are already a number of filter flags in
/proc/<pid>/coredump_filter, however, these allow one to specify 'types'
of kernel memory, not specific address ranges (which is needed in this
case).

Since there are no more vma flags available, the first patch eliminates
the need for the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag.  The flag is used internally by
the kernel to mark vdso and vsyscall pages.  However, it is simple
enough to check if a vma covers a vdso or vsyscall page without the need
for this flag.

The second patch then replaces the 'VM_ALWAYSDUMP' flag with a new
'VM_NODUMP' flag, which can be set by userspace using new madvise flags:
'MADV_DONTDUMP', and unset via 'MADV_DODUMP'.  The core dump filters
continue to work the same as before unless 'MADV_DONTDUMP' is set on the
region.

The qemu code which implements this features is at:

  http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/qemu-dump/qemu-dump.patch

In my testing the qemu core dump shrunk from 383MB -> 13MB with this
patch.

I also believe that the 'MADV_DONTDUMP' flag might be useful for
security sensitive apps, which might want to select which areas are
dumped.

This patch:

The VM_ALWAYSDUMP flag is currently used by the coredump code to
indicate that a vma is part of a vsyscall or vdso section.  However, we
can determine if a vma is in one these sections by checking it against
the gate_vma and checking for a non-NULL return value from
arch_vma_name().  Thus, freeing a valuable vma bit.

Chris Metcalf 571d76acda arch/tile: support signal "exception-trace" hook
This change adds support for /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace to tile.
Like x86 and sparc, by default it is set to "1", generating a one-line
printk whenever a user process crashes.  By setting it to "2", we get
a much more complete userspace diagnostic at crash time, including
a user-space backtrace, register dump, and memory dump around the
address of the crash.

Some vestiges of the Tilera-internal version of this support are
removed with this patch (the show_crashinfo variable and the
arch_coredump_signal function).  We retain a "crashinfo" boot parameter
which allows you to set the boot-time value of exception-trace.

Chris Metcalf 18aecc2b64 arch/tile: finish enabling support for TILE-Gx 64-bit chip
This support was partially present in the existing code (look for
"__tilegx__" ifdefs) but with this change you can build a working
kernel using the TILE-Gx toolchain and ARCH=tilegx.

Most of these files are new, generally adding a foo_64.c file
where previously there was just a foo_32.c file.

The ARCH=tilegx directive redirects to arch/tile, not arch/tilegx,
using the existing SRCARCH mechanism in the top-level Makefile.

Changes to existing files:

- <asm/bitops.h> and <asm/bitops_32.h> changed to factor the
  include of <asm-generic/bitops/non-atomic.h> in the common header.

- <asm/compat.h> and arch/tile/kernel/compat.c changed to remove
  the "const" markers I had put on compat_sys_execve() when trying
  to match some recent similar changes to the non-compat execve.
  It turns out the compat version wasn't "upgraded" to use const.

- <asm/opcode-tile_64.h> and <asm/opcode_constants_64.h> were
  previously included accidentally, with the 32-bit contents.  Now
  they have the proper 64-bit contents.

Finally, I had to hack the existing hacky drivers/input/input-compat.h
to add yet another "#ifdef" for INPUT_COMPAT_TEST (same as x86_64).

David Rientjes b2b755b5f1 lib, arch: add filter argument to show_mem and fix private implementations
Commit ddd588b5dd ("oom: suppress nodes that are not allowed from
meminfo on oom kill") moved lib/show_mem.o out of lib/lib.a, which
resulted in build warnings on all architectures that implement their own
versions of show_mem():

	lib/lib.a(show_mem.o): In function `show_mem':
	show_mem.c:(.text+0x1f4): multiple definition of `show_mem'
	arch/sparc/mm/built-in.o:(.text+0xd70): first defined here

The fix is to remove __show_mem() and add its argument to show_mem() in
all implementations to prevent this breakage.

Architectures that implement their own show_mem() actually don't do
anything with the argument yet, but they could be made to filter nodes
that aren't allowed in the current context in the future just like the
generic implementation.

Chris Metcalf 76c567fbba arch/tile: support 4KB page size as well as 64KB
The Tilera architecture traditionally supports 64KB page sizes
to improve TLB utilization and improve performance when the
hardware is being used primarily to run a single application.

For more generic server scenarios, it can be beneficial to run
with 4KB page sizes, so this commit allows that to be specified
(by modifying the arch/tile/include/hv/pagesize.h header).

As part of this change, we also re-worked the PTE management
slightly so that PTE writes all go through a __set_pte() function
where we can do some additional validation.  The set_pte_order()
function was eliminated since the "order" argument wasn't being used.

One bug uncovered was in the PCI DMA code, which wasn't properly
flushing the specified range.  This was benign with 64KB pages,
but with 4KB pages we were getting some larger flushes wrong.

The per-cpu memory reservation code also needed updating to
conform with the newer percpu stuff; before it always chose 64KB,
and that was always correct, but with 4KB granularity we now have
to pay closer attention and reserve the amount of memory that will
be requested when the percpu code starts allocating.
