In page_remove_file_rmap(.) we have the following check:
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(compound && !PageTransHuge(page), page);
This is meant to check for either HugeTLB pages or THP when a compound
page is passed in.
Unfortunately, if one disables CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE, then
PageTransHuge(.) will always return false, provoking BUGs when one runs
the libhugetlbfs test suite.
This patch replaces PageTransHuge(), with PageHead() which will work for
both HugeTLB and THP.

PageTransCompound() doesn't distinguish THP from from any other type of
compound pages. This can lead to false-positive VM_BUG_ON() in
page_add_file_rmap() if called on compound page from a driver[1].
I think we can exclude such cases by checking if the page belong to a
mapping.
The VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() is downgraded to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(). This path
should not cause any harm to non-THP page, but good to know if we step
on anything else.

Original patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/4/32
If riocm_ch_alloc() fails then we end up dereferencing the error
pointer.
The problem is that we're not unwinding in the reverse order from how we
allocate things so it gets confusing. I've changed this around so now
"ch" is NULL when we are done with it after we call riocm_put_channel().
That way we can check if it's NULL and avoid calling riocm_put_channel()
on it twice.
I renamed err_nodev to err_put_new_ch so that it better reflects what
the goto does.
Then because we had flipping things around, it means we don't neeed to
initialize the pointers to NULL and we can remove an if statement and
pull things in an indent level.

The unit tests crash when hotplug races the previous probe. This race
requires that the loading of the nfit_test module be terminated with
SIGTERM, and the module to be unloaded while the ars scan is still
running.
In contrast to the normal nfit driver, the unit test calls
acpi_nfit_init() twice to simulate hotplug, whereas the nominal case
goes through the acpi_nfit_notify() event handler. The
acpi_nfit_notify() path is careful to flush the previous region
registration before servicing the hotplug event. The unit test was
missing this guarantee.

Clearly QEMU is very permissive in how its PL310 model may be set up,
but the real hardware turns out to be far more particular about things
actually being correct. Fix up the DT description so that the real
thing actually boots:
- The arm,data-latency and arm,tag-latency properties need 3 cells to
be valid, otherwise we end up retaining the default 8-cycle latencies
which leads pretty quickly to lockup.
- The arm,dirty-latency property is only relevant to L210/L220, so get
rid of it.
- The cache geometry override also leads to lockup and/or general
misbehaviour. Irritatingly, the manual doesn't state the actual PL310
configuration, but based on the boardfile code and poking registers
from the Boot Monitor, it would seem to be 8 sets of 16KB ways.
With that, we can successfully boot to enjoy the fun of mismatched FPUs...

The Memory Protection Keys "rights register" (PKRU) is
XSAVE-managed, and is saved/restored along with the FPU state.
When kernel code accesses FPU regsisters, it does a delicate
dance with preempt. Otherwise, the context switching code can
get confused as to whether the most up-to-date state is in the
registers themselves or in the XSAVE buffer.
But, PKRU is not a normal FPU register. Using it does not
generate the normal device-not-available (#NM) exceptions which
means we can not manage it lazily, and the kernel completley
disallows using lazy mode when it is enabled.
The dance with preempt *only* occurs when managing the FPU
lazily. Since we never manage PKRU lazily, we do not have to do
the dance with preempt; we can access it directly. Doing it
this way saves a ton of complicated code (and is faster too).
Further, the XSAVES reenabling failed to patch a bit of code
in fpu__xfeature_set_state() the checked for compacted buffers.
That check caused fpu__xfeature_set_state() to silently refuse to
work when the kernel is using compacted XSAVE buffers. This
broke execute-only and future pkey_mprotect() support when using
compact XSAVE buffers.
But, removing fpu__xfeature_set_state() gets rid of this issue,
in addition to the nice cleanup and speedup.
This fixes the same thing as a fix that Sai posted:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/7/25/637
The fix that he posted is a much more obviously correct, but I
think we should just do this instead.

of the build for my config only generates 8,375 lines of output, this is a big
reduction in the warnings generated.
The warnings follow this pattern:
./arch/x86/include/generated/asm/syscalls_32.h:885:21: warning: initialized field overwritten [-Woverride-init]

There's a subtle preemption race on UP kernels:
Usually current->mm (and therefore mm->pgd) stays the same during the
lifetime of a task so it does not matter if a task gets preempted during
the read and write of the CR3.
But then, there is this scenario on x86-UP:
TaskA is in do_exit() and exit_mm() sets current->mm = NULL followed by:
-> mmput()
-> exit_mmap()
-> tlb_finish_mmu()
-> tlb_flush_mmu()
-> tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly()
-> tlb_flush()
-> flush_tlb_mm_range()
-> __flush_tlb_up()
-> __flush_tlb()
-> __native_flush_tlb()
At this point current->mm is NULL but current->active_mm still points to
the "old" mm.
Let's preempt taskA _after_ native_read_cr3() by taskB. TaskB has its
own mm so CR3 has changed.
Now preempt back to taskA. TaskA has no ->mm set so it borrows taskB's
mm and so CR3 remains unchanged. Once taskA gets active it continues
where it was interrupted and that means it writes its old CR3 value
back. Everything is fine because userland won't need its memory
anymore.
Now the fun part:
Let's preempt taskA one more time and get back to taskB. This
time switch_mm() won't do a thing because oldmm (->active_mm)
is the same as mm (as per context_switch()). So we remain
with a bad CR3 / PGD and return to userland.
The next thing that happens is handle_mm_fault() with an address for
the execution of its code in userland. handle_mm_fault() realizes that
it has a PTE with proper rights so it returns doing nothing. But the
CPU looks at the wrong PGD and insists that something is wrong and
faults again. And again. And one more time…
This pagefault circle continues until the scheduler gets tired of it and
puts another task on the CPU. It gets little difficult if the task is a
RT task with a high priority. The system will either freeze or it gets
fixed by the software watchdog thread which usually runs at RT-max prio.
But waiting for the watchdog will increase the latency of the RT task
which is no good.
Fix this by disabling preemption across the critical code section.

For SKL and later Intel chips, we control the power well per codec
basis via link_power callback since the commit [03b135cebc47: ALSA:
hda - remove dependency on i915 power well for SKL].
However, there are a few exceptional cases where the gfx registers are
accessed from the audio driver: namely the wakeup override bit
toggling at (both system and runtime) resume. This seems causing a
kernel warning when accessed during the power well down (and likely
resulting in the bogus register accesses).
This patch puts the proper power up / down sequence around the resume
code so that the wakeup bit is fiddled properly while the power is
up. (The other callback, sync_audio_rate, is used only in the PCM
callback, so it's guaranteed in the power-on.)
Also, by this proper power up/down, the instantaneous flip of wakeup
bit in the resume callback that was introduced by the commit
[033ea349a7cd: ALSA: hda - Fix Skylake codec timeout] becomes
superfluous, as snd_hdac_display_power() already does it. So we can
clean it up together.

When using if_changed, we need to add FORCE as a dependency (see
Documentation/kbuild/makefiles.txt) otherwise we don't get command line
change checking amongst other things. This has resulted in vdsos not
being rebuilt when switching between big and little endian.
The vdso64/32ld commands have to be changed around to avoid pulling
FORCE into the linker command line (code copied from x86).

When we introduced the little endian support, we added the endian flags
to CC directly using override. I don't know the history of why we did
that, I suspect no one does.
Although this mostly works, it has one bug, which is that CROSS32CC
doesn't get -mbig-endian. That means when the compiler is little endian
by default and the user is building big endian, vdso32 is incorrectly
compiled as little endian and the kernel fails to build.
Instead we can add the endian flags to cflags-y/aflags-y, and then
append those to KBUILD_CFLAGS/KBUILD_AFLAGS.
This has the advantage of being 1) less ugly, 2) the documented way of
adding flags in the arch Makefile and 3) it fixes building vdso32 with a
LE toolchain.

Default implementation expects 6 pages maximum are needed for low page
allocations. If KASLR memory randomization is enabled, the worse case
of e820 layout would require 12 pages (no large pages). It is due to the
PUD level randomization and the variable e820 memory layout.
This bug was found while doing extensive testing of KASLR memory
randomization on different type of hardware.

This patch aims to get rid of endianness in queued_write_unlock(). We
want to set __qrwlock->wmode to NULL, however the address is not
&lock->cnts in big endian machine. That causes queued_write_unlock()
write NULL to the wrong field of __qrwlock.
So implement __qrwlock_write_byte() which returns the correct
__qrwlock->wmode address.

Commit:
6e998916df ("sched/cputime: Fix clock_nanosleep()/clock_gettime() inconsistency")
fixed a problem whereby clock_nanosleep() followed by clock_gettime() could
allow a task to wake early. It addressed the problem by calling the scheduling
classes update_curr() when the cputimer starts.
Said change induced a considerable performance regression on the syscalls
times() and clock_gettimes(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID). There are some
debuggers and applications that monitor their own performance that
accidentally depend on the performance of these specific calls.
This patch mitigates the performace loss by prefetching data in the CPU
cache, as stalls due to cache misses appear to be where most time is spent
in our benchmarks.
Here are the performance gain of this patch over v4.7-rc7 on a Sandy Bridge
box with 32 logical cores and 2 NUMA nodes. The test is repeated with a
variable number of threads, from 2 to 4*num_cpus; the results are in
seconds and correspond to the average of 10 runs; the percentage gain is
computed with (before-after)/before so a positive value is an improvement
(it's faster). The improvement varies between a few percents for 5-20
threads and more than 10% for 2 or >20 threads.

pound_clock_gettime and pound_clock_gettime are two benchmarks included in
the MMTests framework. They launch a given number of threads which
repeatedly call times() or clock_gettimes(). The results above can be
reproduced with cloning MMTests from github.com and running the "poundtime"
workload:
$ git clone https://github.com/gormanm/mmtests.git
$ cd mmtests
$ cp configs/config-global-dhp__workload_poundtime config
$ ./run-mmtests.sh --run-monitor $(uname -r)
The above will run "poundtime" measuring the kernel currently running on
the machine; Once a new kernel is installed and the machine rebooted,
running again
$ cd mmtests
$ ./run-mmtests.sh --run-monitor $(uname -r)
will produce results to compare with. A comparison table will be output
with:
$ cd mmtests/work/log
$ ../../compare-kernels.sh
the table will contain a lot of entries; grepping for "Amean" (as in
"arithmetic mean") will give the tables presented above. The source code
for the two benchmarks is reported at the end of this changelog for
clairity.
The cache misses addressed by this patch were found using a combination of
`perf top`, `perf record` and `perf annotate`. The incriminated lines were
found to be
struct sched_entity *curr = cfs_rq->curr;
and
delta_exec = now - curr->exec_start;
in the function update_curr() from kernel/sched/fair.c. This patch
prefetches the data from memory just before update_curr is called in the
interested execution path.
A comparison of the total number of cycles before and after the patch
follows; the data is obtained using `perf stat -r 10 -ddd <program>`
running over the same sequence of number of threads used above (a positive
gain is an improvement):

Current code in cpudeadline.c has a bug in re-heapifying when adding a
new element at the end of the heap, because a deadline value of 0 is
temporarily set in the new elem, then cpudl_change_key() is called
with the actual elem deadline as param.
However, the function compares the new deadline to set with the one
previously in the elem, which is 0. So, if current absolute deadlines
grew so much to have negative values as s64, the comparison in
cpudl_change_key() makes the wrong decision. Instead, as from
dl_time_before(), the kernel should handle correctly abs deadlines
wrap-arounds.
This patch fixes the problem with a minimally invasive change that
forces cpudl_change_key() to heapify up in this case.

There's a perf stat bug easy to observer on a machine with only one cgroup:
$ perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -C 0 -G /
# time counts unit events
1.000161699 <not counted> cycles /
2.000355591 <not counted> cycles /
3.000565154 <not counted> cycles /
4.000951350 <not counted> cycles /
We'd expect some output there.
The underlying problem is that there is an optimization in
perf_cgroup_sched_{in,out}() that skips the switch of cgroup events
if the old and new cgroups in a task switch are the same.
This optimization interacts with the current code in two ways
that cause a CPU context's cgroup (cpuctx->cgrp) to be NULL even if a
cgroup event matches the current task. These are:
1. On creation of the first cgroup event in a CPU: In current code,
cpuctx->cpu is only set in perf_cgroup_sched_in, but due to the
aforesaid optimization, perf_cgroup_sched_in will run until the next
cgroup switches in that CPU. This may happen late or never happen,
depending on system's number of cgroups, CPU load, etc.
2. On deletion of the last cgroup event in a cpuctx: In list_del_event,
cpuctx->cgrp is set NULL. Any new cgroup event will not be sched in
because cpuctx->cgrp == NULL until a cgroup switch occurs and
perf_cgroup_sched_in is executed (updating cpuctx->cgrp).
This patch fixes both problems by setting cpuctx->cgrp in list_add_event,
mirroring what list_del_event does when removing a cgroup event from CPU
context, as introduced in:
commit 68cacd2916 ("perf_events: Fix stale ->cgrp pointer in update_cgrp_time_from_cpuctx()")
With this patch, cpuctx->cgrp is always set/clear when installing/removing
the first/last cgroup event in/from the CPU context. With cpuctx->cgrp
correctly set, event_filter_match works as intended when events are
sched in/out.
After the fix, the output is as expected:
$ perf stat -e cycles -I 1000 -a -G /
# time counts unit events
1.004699159 627342882 cycles /
2.007397156 615272690 cycles /
3.010019057 616726074 cycles /

The latter seems like the simplest solution. Moving the list-add later
creates a bit of a mess.

This patch eliminates a source of imprecise APIC timer interrupts,
which imprecision may result in double interrupts or even late
interrupts.
The TSC deadline clockevent devices' configuration and registration
happens before the TSC frequency calibration is refined in
tsc_refine_calibration_work().
This results in the TSC clocksource and the TSC deadline clockevent
devices being configured with slightly different frequencies: the former
gets the refined one and the latter are configured with the inaccurate
frequency detected earlier by means of the "Fast TSC calibration using PIT".
Within the APIC code, introduce the notifier function
lapic_update_tsc_freq() which reconfigures all per-CPU TSC deadline
clockevent devices with the current tsc_khz.
Call it from the TSC code after TSC calibration refinement has happened.

[ Pushed #ifdef CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC into header, improved changelog. ]
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
I noticed the following bug/misbehavior on certain Intel systems: with a
single task running on a NOHZ CPU on an Intel Haswell, I recognized
that I did not only get the one expected local_timer APIC interrupt, but
two per second at minimum. (!)
Further tracing showed that the first one precedes the programmed deadline
by up to ~50us and hence, it did nothing except for reprogramming the TSC
deadline clockevent device to trigger shortly thereafter again.
The reason for this is imprecise calibration, the timeout we program into
the APIC results in 'too short' timer interrupts. The core (hr)timer code
notices this (because it has a precise ktime source and sees the short
interrupt) and fixes it up by programming an additional very short
interrupt period.
This is obviously suboptimal.
The reason for the imprecise calibration is twofold, and this patch
fixes the first reason:
In setup_APIC_timer(), the registered clockevent device's frequency
is calculated by first dividing tsc_khz by TSC_DIVISOR and multiplying
it with 1000 afterwards:
(tsc_khz / TSC_DIVISOR) * 1000
The multiplication with 1000 is done for converting from kHz to Hz and the
division by TSC_DIVISOR is carried out in order to make sure that the final
result fits into an u32.
However, with the order given in this calculation, the roundoff error
introduced by the division gets magnified by a factor of 1000 by the
following multiplication.
To fix it, reversing the order of the division and the multiplication a la:
(tsc_khz * 1000) / TSC_DIVISOR
... reduces the roundoff error already.
Furthermore, if TSC_DIVISOR divides 1000, associativity holds:
(tsc_khz * 1000) / TSC_DIVISOR = tsc_khz * (1000 / TSC_DIVISOR)
and thus, the roundoff error even vanishes and the whole operation can be
carried out within 32 bits.
The powers of two that divide 1000 are 2, 4 and 8. A value of 8 for
TSC_DIVISOR still allows for TSC frequencies up to
2^32 / 10^9ns * 8 = 34.4GHz which is way larger than anything to expect
in the next years.
Thus we also replace the current TSC_DIVISOR value of 32 by 8. Reverse
the order of the divison and the multiplication in the calculation of
the registered clockevent device's frequency.
