I like _ONCE warnings because it's guaranteed that they don't flood the
log.

During testing I find it useful to reset the state of the once warnings,
so that I can rerun tests and see if they trigger again, or can
guarantee that a test run always hits the same warnings.

This patch adds a debugfs interface to reset all the _ONCE warnings so
that they appear again:

  echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/clear_warn_once

This is implemented by putting all the warning booleans into a special
section, and clearing it.

The sh decompressor code triggers stack-protector code generation when
using CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG.  As done for arm and mips, add a
simple static stack-protector canary.  As this wasn't protected before,
the risk of using a weak canary is minimized.  Once the kernel is
actually up, a better canary is chosen.

Right now there is no convenient way to check if a process is being
coredumped at the moment.

It might be necessary to recognize such state to prevent killing the
process and getting a broken coredump.  Writing a large core might take
significant time, and the process is unresponsive during it, so it might
be killed by timeout, if another process is monitoring and
killing/restarting hanging tasks.

We're getting a significant number of corrupted coredump files on
machines in our fleet, just because processes are being killed by
timeout in the middle of the core writing process.

We do have a process health check, and some agent is responsible for
restarting processes which are not responding for health check requests.
Writing a large coredump to the disk can easily exceed the reasonable
timeout (especially on an overloaded machine).

This flag will allow the agent to distinguish processes which are being
coredumped, extend the timeout for them, and let them produce a full
coredump file.

To provide an ability to detect if a process is in the state of being
coredumped, we can expose a boolean CoreDumping flag in
/proc/pid/status.

Example:
$ cat core.sh
  #!/bin/sh

  echo "|/usr/bin/sleep 10" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
  sleep 1000 &
  PID=$!

  cat /proc/$PID/status | grep CoreDumping
  kill -ABRT $PID
  sleep 1
  cat /proc/$PID/status | grep CoreDumping

$ ./core.sh
  CoreDumping:	0
  CoreDumping:	1

Commit f3c931633a59 ("mm, compaction: persistently skip hugetlbfs
pageblocks") has introduced pageblock_skip_persistent() checks into
migration and free scanners, to make sure pageblocks that should be
persistently skipped are marked as such, regardless of the
ignore_skip_hint flag.

Since the previous patch introduced a new no_set_skip_hint flag, the
ignore flag no longer prevents marking pageblocks as skipped.  Therefore
we can remove the special cases.  The relevant pageblocks will be marked
as skipped by the common logic which marks each pageblock where no page
could be isolated.  This makes the code simpler.

Pageblock skip hints were added as a heuristic for compaction, which
shares core code with CMA.  Since CMA reliability would suffer from the
heuristics, compact_control flag ignore_skip_hint was added for the CMA
use case.  Since 6815bf3f ("mm/compaction: respect ignore_skip_hint
in update_pageblock_skip") the flag also means that CMA won't *update*
the skip hints in addition to ignoring them.

Today, direct compaction can also ignore the skip hints in the last
resort attempt, but there's no reason not to set them when isolation
fails in such case.  Thus, this patch splits off a new no_set_skip_hint
flag to avoid the updating, which only CMA sets.  This should improve
the heuristics a bit, and allow us to simplify the persistent skip bit
handling as the next step.

pageblock_skip_persistent() checks for HugeTLB pages of pageblock order.
When clearing pageblock skip bits for compaction, the bits are not
cleared for such pageblocks, because they cannot contain base pages
suitable for migration, nor free pages to use as migration targets.

This optimization can be simply extended to all compound pages of order
equal or larger than pageblock order, because migrating such pages (if
they support it) cannot help sub-pageblock fragmentation.  This includes
THP's and also gigantic HugeTLB pages, which the current implementation
doesn't persistently skip due to a strict pageblock_order equality check
and not recognizing tail pages.

While THP pages are generally less "persistent" than HugeTLB, we can
still expect that if a THP exists at the point of
__reset_isolation_suitable(), it will exist also during the subsequent
compaction run.  The time difference here could be actually smaller than
between a compaction run that sets a (non-persistent) skip bit on a THP,
and the next compaction run that observes it.

It is pointless to migrate hugetlb memory as part of memory compaction
if the hugetlb size is equal to the pageblock order.  No defragmentation
is occurring in this condition.

It is also pointless to for the freeing scanner to scan a pageblock
where a hugetlb page is pinned.  Unconditionally skip these pageblocks,
and do so peristently so that they are not rescanned until it is
observed that these hugepages are no longer pinned.

It would also be possible to do this by involving the hugetlb subsystem
in marking pageblocks to no longer be skipped when they hugetlb pages
are freed.  This is a simple solution that doesn't involve any
additional subsystems in pageblock skip manipulation.

Kcompactd is needlessly ignoring pageblock skip information.  It is
doing MIGRATE_SYNC_LIGHT compaction, which is no more powerful than
MIGRATE_SYNC compaction.

If compaction recently failed to isolate memory from a set of
pageblocks, there is nothing to indicate that kcompactd will be able to
do so, or that it is beneficial from attempting to isolate memory.

Use the pageblock skip hint to avoid rescanning pageblocks needlessly
until that information is reset.

I found that debug_dma_alloc_coherent() and debug_dma_free_coherent()
assume that dma_alloc_coherent() always returns a linear address.

However it's possible that dma_alloc_coherent() returns a non-linear
address.  In this case, page_to_pfn(virt_to_page(virt)) will return an
incorrect pfn.  If the pfn is valid and mapped as a COW page, we will
hit the warning when doing wp_page_copy().

Fix this by calculating pfn for linear and non-linear addresses.

There is a race in the current z3fold implementation between
do_compact() called in a work queue context and the page release
procedure when page's kref goes to 0.

do_compact() may be waiting for page lock, which is released by
release_z3fold_page_locked right before putting the page onto the
"stale" list, and then the page may be freed as do_compact() modifies
its contents.

The mechanism currently implemented to handle that (checking the
PAGE_STALE flag) is not reliable enough.  Instead, we'll use page's kref
counter to guarantee that the page is not released if its compaction is
scheduled.  It then becomes compaction function's responsibility to
decrease the counter and quit immediately if the page was actually
freed.

 "Save for a few late fixes, all of these commits have shipped in -next
  releases since before the merge window opened, and 0day has given a
  build success notification.

  The ext4 touches came from Jan, and the xfs touches have Darrick's
  reviewed-by. An xfstest for the MAP_SYNC feature has been through
  a few round of reviews and is on track to be merged.

   - Introduce MAP_SYNC and MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, a mechanism to enable
     'userspace flush' of persistent memory updates via filesystem-dax
     mappings. It arranges for any filesystem metadata updates that may
     be required to satisfy a write fault to also be flushed ("on disk")
     before the kernel returns to userspace from the fault handler.
     Effectively every write-fault that dirties metadata completes an
     fsync() before returning from the fault handler. The new
     MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE mapping type guarantees that the MAP_SYNC flag
     is validated as supported by the filesystem's ->mmap() file
     operation.

   - Add support for the standard ACPI 6.2 label access methods that
     replace the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL (vendor specific) label methods.
     This enables interoperability with environments that only implement
     the standardized methods.

   - Add support for the ACPI 6.2 NVDIMM media error injection methods.

   - Add support for the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL v1.6 DIMM commands for
     latch last shutdown status, firmware update, SMART error injection,
     and SMART alarm threshold control.

   - Cleanup physical address information disclosures to be root-only.

   - Fix revalidation of the DIMM "locked label area" status to support
     dynamic unlock of the label area.

   - Expand unit test infrastructure to mock the ACPI 6.2 Translate SPA
     (system-physical-address) command and error injection commands.

Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "Most of the commits are for defconfig changes, to enable newly added
  drivers or features that people have started using. For the changed
  lines lines, we have mostly cleanups, the affected platforms are OMAP,
  Versatile, EP93xx, Samsung, Broadcom, i.MX, and Actions.

  The largest single change is the introduction of the TI "sysc" bus
  driver, with the intention of cleaning up more legacy code.

  Two new SoC platforms get added this time:

   - Allwinner R40 is a modernized version of the A20 chip, now with a
     Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A7. According to the manufacturer, it is
     intended for "Smart Hardware"

   - Broadcom Hurricane 2 (Aka Strataconnect BCM5334X) is a family of
     chips meant for managed gigabit ethernet switches, based around a
     Cortex-A9 CPU.

  Finally, we gain SMP support for two platforms: Renesas R-Car E2 and
  Amlogic Meson8/8b, which were previously added but only supported
  uniprocessor operation"

The default max_cache_size_bytes for dm-bufio is meant to be the lesser
of 25% of the size of the vmalloc area and 2% of the size of lowmem.
However, on 32-bit systems the intermediate result in the expression

    (VMALLOC_END - VMALLOC_START) * DM_BUFIO_VMALLOC_PERCENT / 100

overflows, causing the wrong result to be computed.  For example, on a
32-bit system where the vmalloc area is 520093696 bytes, the result is
1174405 rather than the expected 130023424, which makes the maximum
cache size much too small (far less than 2% of lowmem).  This causes
severe performance problems for dm-verity users on affected systems.

Fix this by using mult_frac() to correctly multiply by a percentage.  Do
this for all places in dm-bufio that multiply by a percentage.  Also
replace (VMALLOC_END - VMALLOC_START) with VMALLOC_TOTAL, which contrary
to the comment is now defined in include/linux/vmalloc.h.

The DM target's 'discards_supported' flag is intended to act as an
override.  Meaning, even if the underlying storage doesn't support
discards the DM target will.
Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>

A DM device with a mix of discard capabilities (due to some underlying
devices not having discard support) _should_ just return -EOPNOTSUPP for
the region of the device that doesn't support discards (even if only by
way of the underlying driver formally not supporting discards).  BUT,
that does ask the underlying driver to handle something that it never
advertised support for.  In doing so we're exposing users to the
potential for a underlying disk driver hanging if/when a discard is
issued a the device that is incapable and never claimed to support
discards.

Fix this by requiring that each DM target in a DM table provide discard
support as a prereq for a DM device to advertise support for discards.

This may cause some configurations that were happily supporting discards
(even in the face of a mix of discard support) to stop supporting
discards -- but the risk of users hitting driver hangs, and forced
reboots, outweighs supporting those fringe mixed discard
configurations.

It is very normal to see allocation failure, especially with blk-mq
request_queues, so it's unnecessary to report this error and annoy
people.

In practice this 'blk_get_request() returned -11' error gets logged
quite frequently when a blk-mq DM multipath device sees heavy IO.

This change is marked for stable@ because the annoying message in

 "A bit of a small release, I suspect in part due to me travelling for
  KS. But my backlog of patches to review is smaller than usual, so I

  Non-highlights:

   - Five fixes for the >128T address space handling, both to fix bugs
     in our implementation and to bring the semantics exactly into line
     with x86.

  Highlights:

   - Support for a new OPAL call on bare metal machines which gives us a
     true NMI (ie. is not masked by MSR[EE]=0) for debugging etc.

   - Support for Power9 DD2 in the CXL driver.

   - Improvements to machine check handling so that uncorrectable errors
     can be reported into the generic memory_failure() machinery.

   - Some fixes and improvements for VPHN, which is used under PowerVM
     to notify the Linux partition of topology changes.

   - Plumbing to enable TM (transactional memory) without suspend on
     some Power9 processors (PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NO_SUSPEND).

   - Support for emulating vector loads form cache-inhibited memory, on
     some Power9 revisions.

   - Disable the fast-endian switch "syscall" by default (behind a
     CONFIG), we believe it has never had any users.

   - A major rework of the API drivers use when initiating and waiting
     for long running operations performed by OPAL firmware, and changes
     to the powernv_flash driver to use the new API.

   - Several fixes for the handling of FP/VMX/VSX while processes are
     using transactional memory.

   - Optimisations of TLB range flushes when using the radix MMU on
     Power9.

   - Improvements to the VAS facility used to access coprocessors on
     Power9, and related improvements to the way the NX crypto driver
     handles requests.

Pull AFS updates from David Howells:
 "kAFS filesystem driver overhaul.

  The major points of the overhaul are:

   (1) Preliminary groundwork is laid for supporting network-namespacing
       of kAFS. The remainder of the namespacing work requires some way
       to pass namespace information to submounts triggered by an
       automount. This requires something like the mount overhaul that's
       in progress.

   (2) sockaddr_rxrpc is used in preference to in_addr for holding
       addresses internally and add support for talking to the YFS VL
       server. With this, kAFS can do everything over IPv6 as well as
       IPv4 if it's talking to servers that support it.

   (3) Callback handling is overhauled to be generally passive rather
       than active. 'Callbacks' are promises by the server to tell us
       about data and metadata changes. Callbacks are now checked when
       we next touch an inode rather than actively going and looking for
       it where possible.

   (4) File access permit caching is overhauled to store the caching
       information per-inode rather than per-directory, shared over
       subordinate files. Whilst older AFS servers only allow ACLs on
       directories (shared to the files in that directory), newer AFS
       servers break that restriction.

       To improve memory usage and to make it easier to do mass-key
       removal, permit combinations are cached and shared.

   (5) Cell database management is overhauled to allow lighter locks to
       be used and to make cell records autonomous state machines that
       look after getting their own DNS records and cleaning themselves
       up, in particular preventing races in acquiring and relinquishing
       the fscache token for the cell.

   (6) Volume caching is overhauled. The afs_vlocation record is got rid
       of to simplify things and the superblock is now keyed on the cell
       and the numeric volume ID only. The volume record is tied to a
       superblock and normal superblock management is used to mediate
       the lifetime of the volume fscache token.

   (7) File server record caching is overhauled to make server records
       independent of cells and volumes. A server can be in multiple
       cells (in such a case, the administrator must make sure that the
       VL services for all cells correctly reflect the volumes shared
       between those cells).

       Server records are now indexed using the UUID of the server
       rather than the address since a server can have multiple
       addresses.

   (8) File server rotation is overhauled to handle VMOVED, VBUSY (and
       similar), VOFFLINE and VNOVOL indications and to handle rotation
       both of servers and addresses of those servers. The rotation will
       also wait and retry if the server says it is busy.

   (9) Data writeback is overhauled. Each inode no longer stores a list
       of modified sections tagged with the key that authorised it in
       favour of noting the modified region of a page in page->private
       and storing a list of keys that made modifications in the inode.

       This simplifies things and allows other keys to be used to
       actually write to the server if a key that made a modification
       becomes useless.

  (10) Writable mmap() is implemented. This allows a kernel to be build
       entirely on AFS.

  Note that Pre AFS-3.4 servers are no longer supported, though this can
  be added back if necessary (AFS-3.4 was released in 1998)"

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
 "This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.15 kernel cycle:

  Core:

   - The pin control Kconfig entry PINCTRL is now turned into a
     menuconfig option. This obviously has the implication of making the
     subsystem menu visible in menuconfig. This is happening because of
     two things:

      (a) Intel have started to deploy and depend on pin controllers in
          a way that is affecting users directly. This happens on the
          highly integrated laptop chipsets named after geographical
          places: baytrail, broxton, cannonlake, cedarfork, cherryview,
          denverton, geminilake, lewisburg, merrifield, sunrisepoint...
          It started a while back and now it is ever more evident that
          this is crucial infrastructure for x86 laptops and not an
          embedded obscurity anymore. Users need to be aware.

      (b) Pin control expanders on I2C and SPI that are arch-agnostic.
          Currently Semtech SX150X and Microchip MCP28x08 but more are
          expected. Users will have to be able to configure these in
          directly for their set-up.

   - Just go and select GPIOLIB now that we made sure that GPIOLIB is a
     very vanilla subsystem. Do not depend on it, if we need it, select
     it.

   - Exposing the pin control subsystem in menuconfig uncovered a bunch
     of obscure bugs that are now hopefully fixed, all more or less
     pertaining to Blackfin.

   - Unified namespace for cross-calls between pin control and GPIO.

   - New support for clock skew/delay generic DT bindings and generic
     pin config options for this.

   - Minor documentation improvements.

  Various:

   - The Renesas SH-PFC pin controller has evolved a lot. It seems
     Renesas are churning out new SoCs by the minute.

   - A bunch of non-critical fixes for the Rockchip driver.

   - Improve the use of library functions instead of open coding.

   - Support the MCP28018 variant in the MCP28x08 driver.

   - Static constifying"
