For kernels built with PREEMPT_RT, critical sections protected by standard spinlocks are preemptible. This is not acceptable on perf as (a) we may be scheduled onto a different CPU whilst reading/writing banked PMU registers and (b) the latency when reading the PMU registers becomes unpredictable. This patch upgrades the pmu_lock spinlock to a raw_spinlock instead.

The ARM perf_event.c file contains all PMU backends and, as new PMUs are introduced, will continue to grow. This patch follows the example of x86 and splits the PMU implementations into separate files which are then #included back into the main file. Compile-time guards are added to each PMU file to avoid compiling in code that is not relevant for the version of the architecture which we are targetting.

Currently, perf uses the PMU ID as an index into a string table to look up the name of a given PMU. This patch encodes the name of a PMU directly into the arm_pmu structure so that PMU-specific code can be factored out into separate files.

In preparation for separating the PMU-specific code, this patch adds self-contained init functions to each PMU, therefore removing any PMU-specific knowledge from the PMU-agnostic init_hw_perf_events function.

The functions for mapping PMU events (perf, cache and raw) are common between all PMU types and differ only in the data on which they operate. This patch implements common definitions of these mapping functions and changes the arm_pmu struct to hold pointers to the data which they require. This is in anticipation of separating out the PMU-specific code into separate files.

reiserfs_unpack() locks the inode mutex with reiserfs_mutex_lock_safe() to protect against reiserfs lock dependency. However this protection requires to have the reiserfs lock to be locked. This is the case if reiserfs_unpack() is called by reiserfs_ioctl but not from reiserfs_quota_on() when it tries to unpack tails of quota files. Fix the ordering of the two locks in reiserfs_unpack() to fix this issue.

Currently one pagemap_read() call walks in PAGEMAP_WALK_SIZE bytes (== 512 pages.) But there is a corner case where walk_pmd_range() accidentally runs over a VMA associated with a hugetlbfs file. For example, when a process has mappings to VMAs as shown below: # cat /proc/<pid>/maps ... 3a58f6d000-3a58f72000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fbd51853000-7fbd51855000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fbd5186c000-7fbd5186e000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 7fbd51a00000-7fbd51c00000 rw-s 00000000 00:12 8614 /hugepages/test then pagemap_read() goes into walk_pmd_range() path and walks in the range 0x7fbd51853000-0x7fbd51a53000, but the hugetlbfs VMA should be handled by walk_hugetlb_range(). Otherwise PMD for the hugepage is considered bad and cleared, which causes undesirable results. This patch fixes it by separating pagemap walk range into one PMD.

Commit d33b9f45 ("mm: hugetlb: fix hugepage memory leak in walk_page_range()") introduces a check if a vma is a hugetlbfs one and later in 5dc37642 ("mm hugetlb: add hugepage support to pagemap") it is moved under #ifdef CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE but a needless find_vma call is left behind and its result is not used anywhere else in the function. The side-effect of caching vma for @addr inside walk->mm is neither utilized in walk_page_range() nor in called functions.

Swap accounting can be configured by CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP configuration option and then it is turned on by default. There is a boot option (noswapaccount) which can disable this feature. This makes it hard for distributors to enable the configuration option as this feature leads to a bigger memory consumption and this is a no-go for general purpose distribution kernel. On the other hand swap accounting may be very usuful for some workloads. This patch adds a new configuration option which controls the default behavior (CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP_ENABLED). If the option is selected then the feature is turned on by default. It also adds a new boot parameter swapaccount[=1|0] which enhances the original noswapaccount parameter semantic by means of enable/disable logic (defaults to 1 if no value is provided to be still consistent with noswapaccount). The default behavior is unchanged (if CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP is enabled then CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP_ENABLED is enabled as well) Signed-off-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Acked-by: Daisuke Nishimura <nishimura@mxp.nes.nec.co.jp> Cc: Balbir Singh <balbir@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The attribute cache for a file was not being cleared when a file is opened with O_TRUNC. If the filesystem's open operation truncates the file ("atomic_o_trunc" feature flag is set) then the kernel should invalidate the cached st_mtime and st_ctime attributes.

UV hardware defines 256 memory protection regions versus the baseline 64 with increasing size for the SN2 ia64. This was overlooked when XPC was modified to accomodate both UV and SN2. Without this patch, a user could reconfigure their existing system and suddenly disable cross-partition communications with no indication of what has gone wrong. It also prevents larger configurations from using cross-partition communication.

Let's introduce is_page_cgroup_locked based on bit_spin_is_locked instead of PageCgroupLocked to fix it.

Depending on processor speed, page size, and the amount of memory a process is allowed to amass, cleanup of a large VM may freeze the system for many seconds. This can result in a watchdog timeout. Make sure other tasks receive some service when cleaning up large VMs. Signed-off-by: Steven J.
