2021-02-26lib: stackdepot: add support to disable stack depotVijayanand Jitta1-0/+6
Add a kernel parameter stack_depot_disable to disable stack depot. So that stack hash table doesn't consume any memory when stack depot is disabled. The use case is CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER without page_owner=on. Without this patch, stackdepot will consume the memory for the hashtable. By default, it's 8M which is never trivial. With this option, in CONFIG_PAGE_OWNER configured system, page_owner=off, stack_depot_disable in kernel command line, we could save the wasted memory for the hashtable.

In commit 53cdc1cb29e8 ("drivers/base/memory.c: indicate all memory blocks as removable") we changed the output of the "removable" property of memory devices to return "1" if and only if the kernel supports memory offlining. Let's update documentation, stating that the interface is legacy. Also update documentation of the "state" property and "valid_zones" properties.

2021-02-26drivers/base/memory: don't store phys_device in memory blocksDavid Hildenbrand1-2/+2
No need to store the value for each and every memory block, as we can easily query the value at runtime. Reshuffle the members to optimize the memory layout. Also, let's clarify what the interface once was used for and why it's legacy nowadays. "phys_device" was used on s390x in older versions of lsmem[2]/chmem[3], back when they were still part of s390x-tools. They were later replaced by the variants in linux-utils. For example, RHEL6 and RHEL7 contain lsmem/chmem from s390-utils. RHEL8 switched to versions from util-linux on s390x [4]. "phys_device" was added with sysfs support for memory hotplug in commit 3947be1969a9 ("[PATCH] memory hotplug: sysfs and add/remove functions") in 2005. It always returned 0. s390x started returning something != 0 on some setups (if sclp.rzm is set by HW) in 2010 via commit 57b552ba0b2f ("memory hotplug/s390: set phys_device"). For s390x, it allowed for identifying which memory block devices belong to the same storage increment (RZM). Only if all memory block devices comprising a single storage increment were offline, the memory could actually be removed in the hypervisor. Since commit e5d709bb5fb7 ("s390/memory hotplug: provide memory_block_size_bytes() function") in 2013 a memory block device spans at least one storage increment - which is why the interface isn't really helpful/used anymore (except by old lsmem/chmem tools). There were once RFC patches to make use of "phys_device" in ACPI context; however, the underlying problem could be solved using different interfaces [1].

2021-02-25mm/vmscan: restore zone_reclaim_mode ABIDave Hansen1-5/+5
I went to go add a new RECLAIM_* mode for the zone_reclaim_mode sysctl. Like a good kernel developer, I also went to go update the documentation. I noticed that the bits in the documentation didn't match the bits in the #defines. The VM never explicitly checks the RECLAIM_ZONE bit. The bit is, however implicitly checked when checking 'node_reclaim_mode==0'. The RECLAIM_ZONE #define was removed in a cleanup. That, by itself is fine. But, when the bit was removed (bit 0) the _other_ bit locations also got changed. That's not OK because the bit values are documented to mean one specific thing. Users surely do not expect the meaning to change from kernel to kernel. The end result is that if someone had a script that did: sysctl vm.zone_reclaim_mode=1 it would have gone from enabling node reclaim for clean unmapped pages to writing out pages during node reclaim after the commit in question. That's not great. Put the bits back the way they were and add a comment so something like this is a bit harder to do again. Update the documentation to make it clear that the first bit is ignored.

2021-02-25mm: memcg: add swapcache stat for memcg v2Shakeel Butt1-0/+4
This patch adds swapcache stat for the cgroup v2. The swapcache represents the memory that is accounted against both the memory and the swap limit of the cgroup. The main motivation behind exposing the swapcache stat is for enabling users to gracefully migrate from cgroup v1's memsw counter to cgroup v2's memory and swap counters. Cgroup v1's memsw limit allows users to limit the memory+swap usage of a workload but without control on the exact proportion of memory and swap. Cgroup v2 provides separate limits for memory and swap which enables more control on the exact usage of memory and swap individually for the workload. With some little subtleties, the v1's memsw limit can be switched with the sum of the v2's memory and swap limits. However the alternative for memsw usage is not yet available in cgroup v2. Exposing per-cgroup swapcache stat enables that alternative. Adding the memory usage and swap usage and subtracting the swapcache will approximate the memsw usage. This will help in the transparent migration of the workloads depending on memsw usage and limit to v2' memory and swap counters. The reasons these applications are still interested in this approximate memsw usage are: (1) these applications are not really interested in two separate memory and swap usage metrics. A single usage metric is more simple to use and reason about for them. (2) The memsw usage metric hides the underlying system's swap setup from the applications. Applications with multiple instances running in a datacenter with heterogeneous systems (some have swap and some don't) will keep seeing a consistent view of their usage.

The knob's function was never documented and it now doesn't really have a function since eof and cow gc have been consolidated. Regrettably, xfs/231 relies on it and regresses on for-next. I did not succeed at getting far enough through fstests patch review for the fixup to land in time.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "Core scheduler updates: - Add CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC: this in its current form adds the preempt=none/voluntary/full boot options (default: full), to allow distros to build a PREEMPT kernel but fall back to close to PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY (or PREEMPT_NONE) runtime scheduling behavior via a boot time selection. There's also the /debug/sched_debug switch to do this runtime. This feature is implemented via runtime patching (a new variant of static calls). The scope of the runtime patching can be best reviewed by looking at the sched_dynamic_update() function in kernel/sched/core.c. ( Note that the dynamic none/voluntary mode isn't 100% identical, for example preempt-RCU is available in all cases, plus the preempt count is maintained in all models, which has runtime overhead even with the code patching. ) The PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY/PREEMPT_NONE models, used by the vast majority of distributions, are supposed to be unaffected. - Fix ignored rescheduling after rcu_eqs_enter(). This is a bug that was found via rcutorture triggering a hang. The bug is that rcu_idle_enter() may wake up a NOCB kthread, but this happens after the last generic need_resched() check. Some cpuidle drivers fix it by chance but many others don't. In true 2020 fashion the original bug fix has grown into a 5-patch scheduler/RCU fix series plus another 16 RCU patches to address the underlying issue of missed preemption events. These are the initial fixes that should fix current incarnations of the bug. - Clean up rbtree usage in the scheduler, by providing & using the following consistent set of rbtree APIs: partial-order; less() based: - rb_add(): add a new entry to the rbtree - rb_add_cached(): like rb_add(), but for a rb_root_cached total-order; cmp() based: - rb_find(): find an entry in an rbtree - rb_find_add(): find an entry, and add if not found - rb_find_first(): find the first (leftmost) matching entry - rb_next_match(): continue from rb_find_first() - rb_for_each(): iterate a sub-tree using the previous two - Improve the SMP/NUMA load-balancer: scan for an idle sibling in a single pass. This is a 4-commit series where each commit improves one aspect of the idle sibling scan logic. - Improve the cpufreq cooling driver by getting the effective CPU utilization metrics from the scheduler - Improve the fair scheduler's active load-balancing logic by reducing the number of active LB attempts & lengthen the load-balancing interval. This improves stress-ng mmapfork performance. - Fix CFS's estimated utilization (util_est) calculation bug that can result in too high utilization values Misc updates & fixes: - Fix the HRTICK reprogramming & optimization feature - Fix SCHED_SOFTIRQ raising race & warning in the CPU offlining code - Reduce dl_add_task_root_domain() overhead - Fix uprobes refcount bug - Process pending softirqs in flush_smp_call_function_from_idle() - Clean up task priority related defines, remove *USER_*PRIO and USER_PRIO() - Simplify the sched_init_numa() deduplication sort - Documentation updates - Fix EAS bug in update_misfit_status(), which degraded the quality of energy-balancing - Smaller cleanups" * tag 'sched-core-2021-02-17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (51 commits) sched,x86: Allow !PREEMPT_DYNAMIC entry/kvm: Explicitly flush pending rcuog wakeup before last rescheduling point entry: Explicitly flush pending rcuog wakeup before last rescheduling point rcu/nocb: Trigger self-IPI on late deferred wake up before user resume rcu/nocb: Perform deferred wake up before last idle's need_resched() check rcu: Pull deferred rcuog wake up to rcu_eqs_enter() callers sched/features: Distinguish between NORMAL and DEADLINE hrtick sched/features: Fix hrtick reprogramming sched/deadline: Reduce rq lock contention in dl_add_task_root_domain() uprobes: (Re)add missing get_uprobe() in __find_uprobe() smp: Process pending softirqs in flush_smp_call_function_from_idle() sched: Harden PREEMPT_DYNAMIC static_call: Allow module use without exposing static_call_key sched: Add /debug/sched_preempt preempt/dynamic: Support dynamic preempt with preempt= boot option preempt/dynamic: Provide irqentry_exit_cond_resched() static call preempt/dynamic: Provide preempt_schedule[_notrace]() static calls preempt/dynamic: Provide cond_resched() and might_resched() static calls preempt: Introduce CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC static_call: Provide DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0() ...

Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong: "There's a lot going on this time, which seems about right for this drama-filled year. Community developers added some code to speed up freezing when read-only workloads are still running, refactored the logging code, added checks to prevent file extent counter overflow, reduced iolock cycling to speed up fsync and gc scans, and started the slow march towards supporting filesystem shrinking. There's a huge refactoring of the internal speculative preallocation garbage collection code which fixes a bunch of bugs, makes the gc scheduling per-AG and hence multithreaded, and standardizes the retry logic when we try to reserve space or quota, can't, and want to trigger a gc scan. We also enable multithreaded quotacheck to reduce mount times further. This is also preparation for background file gc, which may or may not land for 5.13. We also fixed some deadlocks in the rename code, fixed a quota accounting leak when FSSETXATTR fails, restored the behavior that write faults to an mmap'd region actually cause a SIGBUS, fixed a bug where sgid directory inheritance wasn't quite working properly, and fixed a bug where symlinks weren't working properly in ecryptfs. We also now advertise the inode btree counters feature that was introduced two cycles ago. Summary: - Fix an ABBA deadlock when renaming files on overlayfs. - Make sure that we can't overflow the inode extent counters when adding to or removing extents from a file. - Make directory sgid inheritance work the same way as all the other filesystems. - Don't drain the buffer cache on freeze and ro remount, which should reduce the amount of time if read-only workloads are continuing during the freeze. - Fix a bug where symlink size isn't reported to the vfs in ecryptfs. - Disentangle log cleaning from log covering. This refactoring sets us up for future changes to the log, though for now it simply means that we can use covering for freezes, and cleaning becomes something we only do at unmount. - Speed up file fsyncs by reducing iolock cycling. - Fix delalloc blocks leaking when changing the project id fails because of input validation errors in FSSETXATTR. - Fix oversized quota reservation when converting unwritten extents during a DAX write. - Create a transaction allocation helper function to standardize the idiom of allocating a transaction, reserving blocks, locking inodes, and reserving quota. Replace all the open-coded logic for file creation, file ownership changes, and file modifications to use them. - Actually shut down the fs if the incore quota reservations get corrupted. - Fix background block garbage collection scans to not block and to actually clean out CoW staging extents properly. - Run block gc scans when we run low on project quota. - Use the standardized transaction allocation helpers to make it so that ENOSPC and EDQUOT errors during reservation will back out, invoke the block gc scanner, and try again. This is preparation for introducing background inode garbage collection in the next cycle. - Combine speculative post-EOF block garbage collection with speculative copy on write block garbage collection. - Enable multithreaded quotacheck. - Allow sysadmins to tweak the CPU affinities and maximum concurrency levels of quotacheck and background blockgc worker pools. - Expose the inode btree counter feature in the fs geometry ioctl. - Cleanups of the growfs code in preparation for starting work on filesystem shrinking. - Fix all the bloody gcc warnings that the maintainer knows about. :P - Fix a RST syntax error. - Don't trigger bmbt corruption assertions after the fs shuts down. - Restore behavior of forcing SIGBUS on a shut down filesystem when someone triggers a mmap write fault (or really, any buffered write)" * tag 'xfs-5.12-merge-5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/fs/xfs/xfs-linux: (85 commits) xfs: consider shutdown in bmapbt cursor delete assert xfs: fix boolreturn.cocci warnings xfs: restore shutdown check in mapped write fault path xfs: fix rst syntax error in admin guide xfs: fix incorrect root dquot corruption error when switching group/project quota types xfs: get rid of xfs_growfs_{data,log}_t xfs: rename `new' to `delta' in xfs_growfs_data_private() libxfs: expose inobtcount in xfs geometry xfs: don't bounce the iolock between free_{eof,cow}blocks xfs: expose the blockgc workqueue knobs publicly xfs: parallelize block preallocation garbage collection xfs: rename block gc start and stop functions xfs: only walk the incore inode tree once per blockgc scan xfs: consolidate the eofblocks and cowblocks workers xfs: consolidate incore inode radix tree posteof/cowblocks tags xfs: remove trivial eof/cowblocks functions xfs: hide xfs_icache_free_cowblocks xfs: hide xfs_icache_free_eofblocks xfs: relocate the eofb/cowb workqueue functions xfs: set WQ_SYSFS on all workqueues in debug mode ...

2021-02-17preempt: Introduce CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMICMichal Hocko1-0/+7
Preemption mode selection is currently hardcoded on Kconfig choices. Introduce a dedicated option to tune preemption flavour at boot time, This will be only available on architectures efficiently supporting static calls in order not to tempt with the feature against additional overhead that might be prohibitive or undesirable. CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC is automatically selected by CONFIG_PREEMPT if the architecture provides the necessary support (CONFIG_STATIC_CALL_INLINE, CONFIG_GENERIC_ENTRY, and provide with __preempt_schedule_function() / __preempt_schedule_notrace_function()).

2021-02-15lib/vsprintf: no_hash_pointers prints all addresses as unhashedTimur Tabi1-0/+15
If the no_hash_pointers command line parameter is set, then printk("%p") will print pointers as unhashed, which is useful for debugging purposes. This change applies to any function that uses vsprintf, such as print_hex_dump() and seq_buf_printf(). A large warning message is displayed if this option is enabled. Unhashed pointers expose kernel addresses, which can be a security risk. Also update test_printf to skip the hashed pointer tests if the command-line option is set.

2021-02-09x86/apb_timer: Remove driver for deprecated platformAndy Shevchenko1-6/+0
Intel Moorestown and Medfield are quite old Intel Atom based 32-bit platforms, which were in limited use in some Android phones, tablets and consumer electronics more than eight years ago. There are no bugs or problems ever reported outside from Intel for breaking any of that platforms for years. It seems no real users exists who run more or less fresh kernel on it. Commit 05f4434bc130 ("ASoC: Intel: remove mfld_machine") is also in align with this theory. Due to above and to reduce a burden of supporting outdated drivers, remove the support for outdated platforms completely.

Admitedly, passing id_aa64mmfr1.vh=0 on the command-line isn't that easy to understand, and it is likely that users would much prefer write "kvm-arm.mode=nvhe", or "...=protected". So here you go.

Michael Kerrisk suggested that, from an API perspective, it is a bad idea to share the PR_SYS_DISPATCH_ defines between the prctl operation and the selector variable. Therefore, define two new constants to be used by SUD's selector variable and update the corresponding documentation and test cases. While this changes the API syscall user dispatch has never been part of a Linux release, it will show up for the first time in 5.11.
