Some descriptions of page flags in 'pagemap.rst' are written in
assumption of none-rst, which respects every new line, as below:
7 - SLAB
page is managed by the SLAB/SLOB/SLUB/SLQB kernel memory allocator
When compound page is used, SLUB/SLQB will only set this flag on the head
Because rst ignores the new line between the first sentence and second
sentence, resulting html looks a little bit weird, as below.
7 - SLAB
page is managed by the SLAB/SLOB/SLUB/SLQB kernel memory allocator When
^
compound page is used, SLUB/SLQB will only set this flag on the head
page; SLOB will not flag it at all.
This change makes it more natural and consistent with other parts in the
rendered version.

Information in 'TL; DR' section of 'Getting Started' is duplicated in
other parts of the doc. It is also asking readers to visit the access
pattern visualizations gallery web site to show the results of example
visualization commands, while the users of the commands can use terminal
output.
To make the doc simple, this removes the duplicated 'TL; DR' section and
replaces the visualization example commands with versions using terminal
outputs.

This change introduces an aged idle interface to the existing idle sysfs
file for zram.
When CONFIG_ZRAM_MEMORY_TRACKING is enabled the idle file now also
accepts an integer argument. This integer is the age (in seconds) of
pages to mark as idle. The idle file still supports 'all' as it always
has. This new approach allows for much more control over which pages
get marked as idle.

Commit e83a437faa62 ("mm/memory_hotplug: introduce "auto-movable" online
policy") introduced a new memory online policy to automatically select a
zone for memory blocks to be onlined. It added a way to set the active
online policy and tunables for the auto-movable online policy.
Follow-up commits tweaked the "auto-movable" policy to also consider
memory device details when selecting zones for memory blocks to be
onlined.
Let's document the new toggles and how the two online policies we have
work.

allocation
We can specify the number of hugepages to allocate at boot. But the
hugepages is balanced in all nodes at present. In some scenarios, we
only need hugepages in one node. For example: DPDK needs hugepages
which are in the same node as NIC.
If DPDK needs four hugepages of 1G size in node1 and system has 16 numa
nodes we must reserve 64 hugepages on the kernel cmdline. But only four
hugepages are used. The others should be free after boot. If the
system memory is low(for example: 64G), it will be an impossible task.
So extend the hugepages parameter to support specifying hugepages on a
specific node. For example add following parameter:
hugepagesz=1G hugepages=0:1,1:3
It will allocate 1 hugepage in node0 and 3 hugepages in node1.

Now the size of CMA area for gigantic hugepages runtime allocation is
balanced for all online nodes, but we also want to specify the size of
CMA per-node, or only one node in some cases, which are similar with
patch [1].
For example, on some multi-nodes systems, each node's memory can be
different, allocating the same size of CMA for each node is not suitable
for the low-memory nodes. Meanwhile some workloads like DPDK mentioned
by Zhenguo in patch [1] only need hugepages in one node.
On the other hand, we have some machines with multiple types of memory,
like DRAM and PMEM (persistent memory). On this system, we may want to
specify all the hugepages only on DRAM node, or specify the proportion
of DRAM node and PMEM node, to tuning the performance of the workloads.
Thus this patch adds node format for 'hugetlb_cma' parameter to support
specifying the size of CMA per-node. An example is as follows:
hugetlb_cma=0:5G,2:5G
which means allocating 5G size of CMA area on node 0 and node 2
respectively. And the users should use the node specific sysfs file to
allocate the gigantic hugepages if specified the CMA size on that node.

Patch series "hugetlb: add demote/split page functionality", v4.
The concurrent use of multiple hugetlb page sizes on a single system is
becoming more common. One of the reasons is better TLB support for
gigantic page sizes on x86 hardware. In addition, hugetlb pages are
being used to back VMs in hosting environments.
When using hugetlb pages to back VMs, it is often desirable to
preallocate hugetlb pools. This avoids the delay and uncertainty of
allocating hugetlb pages at VM startup. In addition, preallocating huge
pages minimizes the issue of memory fragmentation that increases the
longer the system is up and running.
In such environments, a combination of larger and smaller hugetlb pages
are preallocated in anticipation of backing VMs of various sizes. Over
time, the preallocated pool of smaller hugetlb pages may become depleted
while larger hugetlb pages still remain. In such situations, it is
desirable to convert larger hugetlb pages to smaller hugetlb pages.
Converting larger to smaller hugetlb pages can be accomplished today by
first freeing the larger page to the buddy allocator and then allocating
the smaller pages. For example, to convert 50 GB pages on x86:
gb_pages=`cat .../hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages`
m2_pages=`cat .../hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages`
echo $(($gb_pages - 50)) > .../hugepages-1048576kB/nr_hugepages
echo $(($m2_pages + 25600)) > .../hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages
On an idle system this operation is fairly reliable and results are as
expected. The number of 2MB pages is increased as expected and the time
of the operation is a second or two.
However, when there is activity on the system the following issues
arise:
1) This process can take quite some time, especially if allocation of
the smaller pages is not immediate and requires migration/compaction.
2) There is no guarantee that the total size of smaller pages allocated
will match the size of the larger page which was freed. This is
because the area freed by the larger page could quickly be
fragmented.
In a test environment with a load that continually fills the page cache
with clean pages, results such as the following can be observed:
Unexpected number of 2MB pages allocated: Expected 25600, have 19944
real 0m42.092s
user 0m0.008s
sys 0m41.467s
To address these issues, introduce the concept of hugetlb page demotion.
Demotion provides a means of 'in place' splitting of a hugetlb page to
pages of a smaller size. This avoids freeing pages to buddy and then
trying to allocate from buddy.
Page demotion is controlled via sysfs files that reside in the per-hugetlb
page size and per node directories.
- demote_size
Target page size for demotion, a smaller huge page size. File
can be written to chose a smaller huge page size if multiple are
available.
- demote
Writable number of hugetlb pages to be demoted
To demote 50 GB huge pages, one would:
cat .../hugepages-1048576kB/free_hugepages /* optional, verify free pages */
cat .../hugepages-1048576kB/demote_size /* optional, verify target size */
echo 50 > .../hugepages-1048576kB/demote
Only hugetlb pages which are free at the time of the request can be
demoted. Demotion does not add to the complexity of surplus pages and
honors reserved huge pages. Therefore, when a value is written to the
sysfs demote file, that value is only the maximum number of pages which
will be demoted. It is possible fewer will actually be demoted. The
recently introduced per-hstate mutex is used to synchronize demote
operations with other operations that modify hugetlb pools.
Real world use cases
--------------------
The above scenario describes a real world use case where hugetlb pages
are used to back VMs on x86. Both issues of long allocation times and
not necessarily getting the expected number of smaller huge pages after
a free and allocate cycle have been experienced. The occurrence of
these issues is dependent on other activity within the host and can not
be predicted.
This patch (of 5):
Two new sysfs files are added to demote hugtlb pages. These files are
both per-hugetlb page size and per node. Files are:
demote_size - The size in Kb that pages are demoted to. (read-write)
demote - The number of huge pages to demote. (write-only)
By default, demote_size is the next smallest huge page size. Valid huge
page sizes less than huge page size may be written to this file. When
huge pages are demoted, they are demoted to this size.
Writing a value to demote will result in an attempt to demote that
number of hugetlb pages to an appropriate number of demote_size pages.
NOTE: Demote interfaces are only provided for huge page sizes if there
is a smaller target demote huge page size. For example, on x86 1GB huge
pages will have demote interfaces. 2MB huge pages will not have demote
interfaces.
This patch does not provide full demote functionality. It only provides
the sysfs interfaces.
It also provides documentation for the new interfaces.

This patch follows the discussions on previous documentation patch
threads [1][2]. It presents the exception case of shared memory
management from the pagemap's point of view. It briefly describes what
is missing, why it is missing and alternatives to the pagemap for page
info retrieval in user space.
In short, the kernel does not keep track of PTEs for swapped out shared
pages within the processes that references them. Thus, the
proc/pid/pagemap tool cannot print the swap destination of the shared
memory pages, instead setting the pagemap entry to zero for both
non-allocated and swapped out pages. This can create confusion for
users who need information on swapped out pages.
The reasons why maintaining the PTEs of all swapped out shared pages
among all processes while maintaining similar performance is not a
trivial task, or a desirable change, have been discussed extensively
[1][3][4][5]. There are also arguments for why this arguably missing
information should eventually be exposed to the user in either a future
pagemap patch, or by an alternative tool.

The deprecation process of kmem.limit_in_bytes started with the commit
0158115f702 ("memcg, kmem: deprecate kmem.limit_in_bytes") which also
explains in detail the motivation behind the deprecation. To summarize,
it is the unexpected behavior on hitting the kmem limit. This patch
moves the deprecation process to the next stage by disallowing to set
the kmem limit. In future we might just remove the kmem.limit_in_bytes
file completely.

xenboot_write_console() is dealing with these quite fine so I don't see
why xenboot_console_setup() would return -ENOENT in this case.
Adjust documentation accordingly.

Merge patch series from Nick Desaulniers to update the minimum gcc
version to 5.1.
This is some of the left-overs from the merge window that I didn't want
to deal with yesterday, so it comes in after -rc1 but was sent before.
Gcc-4.9 support has been an annoyance for some time, and with -Werror I
had the choice of applying a fairly big patch from Kees Cook to remove a
fair number of initializer warnings (still leaving some), or this patch
series from Nick that just removes the source of the problem.
The initializer cleanups might still be worth it regardless, but
honestly, I preferred just tackling the problem with gcc-4.9 head-on.
We've been more aggressiuve about no longer having to care about
compilers that were released a long time ago, and I think it's been a
good thing.
I added a couple of patches on top to sort out a few left-overs now that
we no longer support gcc-4.x.
As noted by Arnd, as a result of this minimum compiler version upgrade
we can probably change our use of '--std=gnu89' to '--std=gnu11', and
finally start using local loop declarations etc. But this series does
_not_ yet do that.

The memory hot(un)plug documentation is outdated and incomplete. Most of
the content dates back to 2007, so it's time for a major overhaul.
Let's rewrite, reorganize and update most parts of the documentation. In
addition to memory hot(un)plug, also add some details regarding
ZONE_MOVABLE, with memory hotunplug being one of its main consumers.
Drop the file history, that information can more reliably be had from the
git log.
The style of the document is also properly fixed that e.g., "restview"
renders it cleanly now.
In the future, we might add some more details about virt users like
virtio-mem, the XEN balloon, the Hyper-V balloon and ppc64 dlpar.

Adds a new mode to the existing mempolicy modes, MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY.
MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY will be adequately documented in the internal
admin-guide with this patch. Eventually, the man pages for mbind(2),
get_mempolicy(2), set_mempolicy(2) and numactl(8) will also have text
about this mode. Those shall contain the canonical reference.
NUMA systems continue to become more prevalent. New technologies like
PMEM make finer grain control over memory access patterns increasingly
desirable. MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY allows userspace to specify a set of nodes
that will be tried first when performing allocations. If those
allocations fail, all remaining nodes will be tried. It's a straight
forward API which solves many of the presumptive needs of system
administrators wanting to optimize workloads on such machines. The mode
will work either per VMA, or per thread.

The proactive compaction[1] gets triggered for every 500msec and run
compaction on the node for COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER (usually order-9) pages
based on the value set to sysctl.compaction_proactiveness. Triggering the
compaction for every 500msec in search of COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER pages is
not needed for all applications, especially on the embedded system
usecases which may have few MB's of RAM. Enabling the proactive
compaction in its state will endup in running almost always on such
systems.
Other side, proactive compaction can still be very much useful for getting
a set of higher order pages in some controllable manner(controlled by
using the sysctl.compaction_proactiveness). So, on systems where enabling
the proactive compaction always may proove not required, can trigger the
same from user space on write to its sysctl interface. As an example, say
app launcher decide to launch the memory heavy application which can be
launched fast if it gets more higher order pages thus launcher can prepare
the system in advance by triggering the proactive compaction from
userspace.
This triggering of proactive compaction is done on a write to
sysctl.compaction_proactiveness by user.

This updates the following:
1) The ASL code to follow latest ACPI requirements, i.e.
- static buffer to be defined outside of the method
- The _ADR and _HID shouldn't be together for the same device
2) EFI section relies on the additional kernel configuration option,
i.e. CONFIG_EFI_CUSTOM_SSDT_OVERLAYS
3) Refer to ACPI machine language as AML (capitalized)
4) Miscellaneous amendments

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Optionally, provide an index of possible printk messages via
<debugfs>/printk/index/. It can be used when monitoring important
kernel messages on a farm of various hosts. The monitor has to be
updated when some messages has changed or are not longer available by
a newly deployed kernel.
- Add printk.console_no_auto_verbose boot parameter. It allows to
generate crash dump even with slow consoles in a reasonable time
frame.
- Remove printk_safe buffers. The messages are always stored directly
to the main logbuffer, even in NMI or recursive context. Also it
allows to serialize syslog operations by a mutex instead of a spin
lock.
- Misc clean up and build fixes.

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- Add DM infrastructure for IMA-based remote attestion. These changes
are the basis for deploying DM-based storage in a "cloud" that must
validate configurations end-users run to maintain trust. These DM
changes allow supported DM targets' configurations to be measured via
IMA. But the policy and enforcement (of which configurations are
valid) is managed by something outside the kernel (e.g. Keylime).
- Fix DM crypt scalability regression on systems with many cpus due to
percpu_counter spinlock contention in crypt_page_alloc().
- Use in_hardirq() instead of deprecated in_irq() in DM crypt.
- Add event counters to DM writecache to allow users to further assess
how the writecache is performing.
- Various code cleanup in DM writecache's main IO mapping function.
