Merge mmu_notifier fixes from Jérôme Glisse: "The invalidate_page callback suffered from 2 pitfalls. First it used to happen after page table lock was release and thus a new page might have been setup for the virtual address before the call to invalidate_page(). This is in a weird way fixed by commit c7ab0d2f ("mm: convert try_to_unmap_one() to use page_vma_mapped_walk()") which moved the callback under the page table lock. Which also broke several existing user of the mmu_notifier API that assumed they could sleep inside this callback. The second pitfall was invalidate_page being the only callback not taking a range of address in respect to invalidation but was giving an address and a page. Lot of the callback implementer assumed this could never be THP and thus failed to invalidate the appropriate range for THP pages. By killing this callback we unify the mmu_notifier callback API to always take a virtual address range as input. There is now two clear API (I am not mentioning the youngess API which is seldomly used): - invalidate_range_start()/end() callback (which allow you to sleep) - invalidate_range() where you can not sleep but happen right after page table update under page table lock Note that a lot of existing user feels broken in respect to range_start/ range_end. Many user only have range_start() callback but there is nothing preventing them to undo what was invalidated in their range_start() callback after it returns but before any CPU page table update take place. The code pattern use in kvm or umem odp is an example on how to properly avoid such race. In a nutshell use some kind of sequence number and active range invalidation counter to block anything that might undo what the range_start() callback did. If you do not care about keeping fully in sync with CPU page table (ie you can live with CPU page table pointing to new different page for a given virtual address) then you can take a reference on the pages inside the range_start callback and drop it in range_end or when your driver is done with those pages. Last alternative is to use invalidate_range() if you can do invalidation without sleeping as invalidate_range() callback happens under the CPU page table spinlock right after the page table is updated. The first two patches convert existing mmu_notifier_invalidate_page() calls to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range() and bracket those call with call to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()/end(). The next ten patches remove existing invalidate_page() callback as it can no longer happen. Finally the last page remove the invalidate_page() callback completely so it can RIP. Changes since v1: - remove more dead code in kvm (no testing impact) - more accurate end address computation (patch 2) in page_mkclean_one and try_to_unmap_one - added tested-by/reviewed-by gotten so far" * emailed patches from Jérôme Glisse <jglisse@redhat.com>: mm/mmu_notifier: kill invalidate_page KVM: update to new mmu_notifier semantic v2 xen/gntdev: update to new mmu_notifier semantic sgi-gru: update to new mmu_notifier semantic misc/mic/scif: update to new mmu_notifier semantic iommu/intel: update to new mmu_notifier semantic iommu/amd: update to new mmu_notifier semantic IB/hfi1: update to new mmu_notifier semantic IB/umem: update to new mmu_notifier semantic drm/amdgpu: update to new mmu_notifier semantic powerpc/powernv: update to new mmu_notifier semantic mm/rmap: update to new mmu_notifier semantic v2 dax: update to new mmu_notifier semantic

jfs had previously avoided the use of MAX_LFS_FILESIZE because it hadn't accounted for the whole 32-bit index range on 32-bit systems. That has been fixed by commit 0cc3b0ec ("Clarify (and fix) MAX_LFS_FILESIZE macros"), so we can simplify the code now. Suggested by Andreas Dilger.

This reverts commit aac2fea9. It turns out that that patch was complete and utter garbage, and broke KVM, resulting in odd oopses. Quoting Andrea Arcangeli: "The aforementioned commit has 3 bugs. 1) mmu_notifier_invalidate_range cannot be used in replacement of mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end. For KVM mmu_notifier_invalidate_range is a noop and rightfully so. A MMU notifier implementation has to implement either ->invalidate_range method or the invalidate_range_start/end methods, not both. And if you implement invalidate_range_start/end like KVM is forced to do, calling mmu_notifier_invalidate_range in common code is a noop for KVM. For those MMU notifiers that can get away only implementing ->invalidate_range, the ->invalidate_range is implicitly called by mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(). And only those secondary MMUs that share the same pagetable with the primary MMU (like AMD iommuv2) can get away only implementing ->invalidate_range. So all cases (THP on/off) are broken right now. To fix this is enough to replace mmu_notifier_invalidate_range with mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start;mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end. Either that or call multiple mmu_notifier_invalidate_page like before. 2) address + (1UL << compound_order(page) is buggy, it should be PAGE_SIZE << compound_order(page), it's bytes not pages, 2M not 512. 3) The whole invalidate_range thing was an attempt to call a single invalidate while walking multiple 4k ptes that maps the same THP (after a pmd virtual split without physical compound page THP split). It's unclear if the rmap_walk will always provide an address that is 2M aligned as parameter to try_to_unmap_one, in presence of THP. I think it needs also an address &= (PAGE_SIZE << compound_order(page)) - 1 to be safe" In general, we should stop making excuses for horrible MMU notifier users. It's much more important that the core VM is sane and safe, than letting MMU notifiers sleep. So if some MMU notifier is sleeping under a spinlock, we need to fix the notifier, not try to make excuses for that garbage in the core VM.

ATA-8 and later mirrors the TRUSTED COMPUTING SUPPORTED bit in word 48 of the IDENTIFY DEVICE data. Check this before issuing a READ LOG PAGE command to avoid issues with buggy devices. The only downside is that we can't support Security Send / Receive for a device with an older revision due to the conflicting use of this field in earlier specifications. tj: The reason we need this is because some devices which don't support READ LOG PAGE lock up after getting issued that command.

Commit 3510ca20 ("Minor page waitqueue cleanups") made the page queue code always add new waiters to the back of the queue, which helps upcoming patches to batch the wakeups for some horrid loads where the wait queues grow to thousands of entries. However, I forgot about the nasrt add_page_wait_queue() special case code that is only used by the cachefiles code. That one still continued to add the new wait queue entries at the beginning of the list. Fix it, because any sane batched wakeup will require that we don't suddenly start getting new entries at the beginning of the list that we already handled in a previous batch. [ The current code always does the whole list while holding the lock, so wait queue ordering doesn't matter for correctness, but even then it's better to add later entries at the end from a fairness standpoint ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

When !NUMA, cpumask_of_node(@node) equals cpu_online_mask regardless of @node. The assumption seems that if !NUMA, there shouldn't be more than one node and thus reporting cpu_online_mask regardless of @node is correct. However, that assumption was broken years ago to support DISCONTIGMEM and whether a system has multiple nodes or not is separately controlled by NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES. This means that, on a system with !NUMA && NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES, cpumask_of_node() will report cpu_online_mask for all possible nodes, indicating that the CPUs are associated with multiple nodes which is an impossible configuration. This bug has been around forever but doesn't look like it has caused any noticeable symptoms. However, it triggers a WARN recently added to workqueue to verify NUMA affinity configuration. Fix it by reporting empty cpumask on non-zero nodes if !NUMA.

Recent commit a8ec3ee8 "arc: Mask individual IRQ lines during core INTC init" breaks interrupt handling on ARCv2 SMP systems. That commit masked all interrupts at onset, as some controllers on some boards (customer as well as internal), would assert interrutps early before any handlers were installed. For SMP systems, the masking was done at each cpu's core-intc. Later, when the IRQ was actually requested, it was unmasked, but only on the requesting cpu. For "common" interrupts, which were wired up from the 2nd level IDU intc, this was as issue as they needed to be enabled on ALL the cpus (given that IDU IRQs are by default served Round Robin across cpus) So fix that by NOT masking "common" interrupts at core-intc, but instead at the 2nd level IDU intc (latter already being done in idu_of_init()) Fixes: a8ec3ee8 ("arc: Mask individual IRQ lines during core INTC init") Signed-off-by: Alexey Brodkin <abrodkin@synopsys.com> [vgupta: reworked changelog, removed the extraneous idu_irq_mask_raw()] Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Commit 464d6242 ("select: switch compat_{get,put}_fd_set() to compat_{get,put}_bitmap()") changed the calculation on how many bytes need to be zeroed when userspace handed over a NULL pointer for a fdset array in the select syscall. The calculation was changed in compat_get_fd_set() wrongly from memset(fdset, 0, ((nr + 1) & ~1)*sizeof(compat_ulong_t)); to memset(fdset, 0, ALIGN(nr, BITS_PER_LONG)); The ALIGN(nr, BITS_PER_LONG) calculates the number of _bits_ which need to be zeroed in the target fdset array (rounded up to the next full bits for an unsigned long). But the memset() call expects the number of _bytes_ to be zeroed. This leads to clearing more memory than wanted (on the stack area or even at kmalloc()ed memory areas) and to random kernel crashes as we have seen them on the parisc platform. The correct change should have been memset(fdset, 0, (ALIGN(nr, BITS_PER_LONG) / BITS_PER_LONG) * BYTES_PER_LONG); which is the same as can be archieved with a call to zero_fd_set(nr, fdset).
