Move the call to cache_alloc_debugcheck_after() outside the IRQ disabled section in kmem_cache_alloc_bulk(). When CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB is disabled the compiler should remove this code. Signed-off-by:

This patch implements the alloc side of bulk API for the SLAB allocator. Further optimization are still possible by changing the call to __do_cache_alloc() into something that can return multiple objects. This optimization is left for later, given end results already show in the area of 80% speedup. Signed-off-by:

Reviewers notice that the order in slab_post_alloc_hook() of kmemcheck_slab_alloc() and kmemleak_alloc_recursive() gets swapped compared to slab.c / SLAB allocator. Also notice memset now occurs before calling kmemcheck_slab_alloc() and kmemleak_alloc_recursive(). I assume this reordering of kmemcheck, kmemleak and memset is okay because this is the order they are used by the SLUB allocator. This patch completes the sharing of alloc_hook's between SLUB and SLAB. Signed-off-by:

In the SLAB allocator kmemcheck_slab_alloc() is guarded against being called in case the object is NULL. In SLUB allocator this NULL pointer invocation can happen, which seems like an oversight. Move the NULL pointer check into kmemcheck code (kmemcheck_slab_alloc) so the check gets moved out of the fastpath, when not compiled with CONFIG_KMEMCHECK. This is a step towards sharing post_alloc_hook between SLUB and SLAB, because slab_post_alloc_hook() does not perform this check before calling kmemcheck_slab_alloc(). Signed-off-by:

Deduplicate code in SLAB allocator functions slab_alloc() and slab_alloc_node() by using the slab_pre_alloc_hook() call, which is now shared between SLUB and SLAB. Signed-off-by:

Remove the SLAB specific function slab_should_failslab(), by moving the check against fault-injection for the bootstrap slab, into the shared function should_failslab() (used by both SLAB and SLUB). This is a step towards sharing alloc_hook's between SLUB and SLAB. This bootstrap slab "kmem_cache" is used for allocating struct kmem_cache objects to the allocator itself. Signed-off-by:

This change is primarily an attempt to make it easier to realize the optimizations the compiler performs in-case CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is not enabled. Performance wise, even when CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM is compiled in, the overhead is zero. This is because, as long as no process have enabled kmem cgroups accounting, the assignment is replaced by asm-NOP operations. This is possible because memcg_kmem_enabled() uses a static_key_false() construct. It also helps readability as it avoid accessing the p[] array like: p[size - 1] which "expose" that the array is processed backwards inside helper function build_detached_freelist(). Lastly this also makes the code more robust, in error case like passing NULL pointers in the array. Which were previously handled before commit 03374518 ("slub: add missing kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk"). Fixes: 03374518 ("slub: add missing kmem cgroup support to kmem_cache_free_bulk") Signed-off-by:

gcc-6.0 found an ancient bug in the paride driver, which had a "module_param(verbose, bool, 0);" since before 2.6.12, but actually uses it to accept '0', '1' or '2' as arguments: drivers/block/paride/pd.c: In function 'pd_init_dev_parms': drivers/block/paride/pd.c:298:29: warning: comparison of constant '1' with boolean expression is always false [-Wbool-compare] #define DBMSG(msg) ((verbose>1)?(msg):NULL) In 2012, Rusty did a cleanup patch that also changed the type of the variable to 'bool', which introduced what is now a gcc warning. This changes the type back to 'int' and adapts the module_param() line instead, so it should work as documented in case anyone ever cares about running the ancient driver with debugging. Fixes: 90ab5ee9 ("module_param: make bool parameters really bool (drivers & misc)") Signed-off-by:

This patch has been carried in the Android tree for quite some time and is one of the few patches required to get a mainline kernel up and running with an exsiting Android userspace. So I wanted to submit it for review and consideration if it should be merged. For partitions, add new uevent parameters 'PARTN' which specifies the partitions index in the table, and 'PARTNAME', which specifies PARTNAME specifices the partition name of a partition device. Android's userspace uses this for creating device node links from the partition name and number, ie: /dev/block/platform/soc/by-name/system or /dev/block/platform/soc/by-num/p1 One can see its usage here: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/master/init/devices.cpp#355 and https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/master/init/devices.cpp#494 [john.stultz@linaro.org: dropped NPARTS and reworded commit message for context] Signed-off-by:Dima Zavin <dima@android.com> Signed-off-by:

when o2hb detect a node down, it first set the dead node to recovery map and create ocfs2rec which will replay journal for dead node. o2hb thread then call dlm_do_local_recovery_cleanup() to delete the lock for dead node. After the lock of dead node is gone, locks for other nodes can be granted and may modify the meta data without replaying journal of the dead node. The detail is described as follows. N1 N2 N3(master) modify the extent tree of inode, and commit dirty metadata to journal, then goes down. o2hb thread detects N1 goes down, set recovery map and delete the lock of N1. dlm_thread flush ast for the lock of N2. do not detect the death of N1, so recovery map is empty. read inode from disk without replaying the journal of N1 and modify the extent tree of the inode that N1 had modified. ocfs2rec recover the journal of N1. The modification of N2 is lost. The modification of N1 and N2 are not serial, and it will lead to read-only file system. We can set recovery_waiting flag to the lock resource after delete the lock for dead node to prevent other node from getting the lock before dlm recovery. After dlm recovery, the recovery map on N2 is not empty, ocfs2_inode_lock_full_nested() will wait for ocfs2 recovery. Signed-off-by:Jiufei Xue <xuejiufei@huawei.com> Reviewed-by:

If master migrate this lock resource to node when it happened to purge it, a new lock resource will be created and inserted into hash list. If then master goes down, the lock resource being purged is recovered, so there exist two lock resource with different owner.

Node can purge the lock resource after receiving this message. As a new message is added, so increase the minor number of dlm protocol version. Signed-off-by: -

Refer to cluster/tcp.h, NET_MAX_PAYLOAD_BYTES is a typo for O2NET_MAX_PAYLOAD_BYTES. Since currently DLM_MIG_LOCKRES_RESERVED is not actually used, it won't cause any problem. But we'd better correct it for further use. Signed-off-by:

Pull read-only kernel memory updates from Ingo Molnar: "This tree adds two (security related) enhancements to the kernel's handling of read-only kernel memory: - extend read-only kernel memory to a new class of formerly writable kernel data: 'post-init read-only memory' via the __ro_after_init attribute, and mark the ARM and x86 vDSO as such read-only memory.

When calculate_cpu_foreign_map() recalculates the cpu_foreign_map cpumask it uses the local variable temp_foreign_map without initialising it to zero. Since the calculation only ever sets bits in this cpumask any existing bits at that memory location will remain set and find their way into cpu_foreign_map too. This could potentially lead to cache operations suboptimally doing smp calls to multiple VPEs in the same core, even though the VPEs share primary caches. Therefore initialise temp_foreign_map using cpumask_clear() before use. Fixes: cccf34e9 ("MIPS: c-r4k: Fix cache flushing for MT cores") Signed-off-by:

The MIPS_GIC_IPI should only be selected when MIPS_GIC is also selected, otherwise it results in a compile error. smp-gic.c uses some functions from include/linux/irqchip/mips-gic.h like plat_ipi_call_int_xlate() which are only added to the header file when MIPS_GIC is set. The Lantiq SoC does not use the GIC, but supports SMP. The calls top the functions from smp-gic.c are already protected by some #ifdefs The first part of this was introduced in commit 72e20142 ("MIPS: Move GIC IPI functions out of smp-cmp.c") Signed-off-by:

The ld-version.sh script fails on some versions of awk with the following error, resulting in build failures for MIPS: awk: scripts/ld-version.sh: line 4: regular expression compile failed (missing '(') This is due to the regular expression ".*)", meant to strip off the beginning of the ld version string up to the close bracket, however brackets have a meaning in regular expressions, so lets escape it so that awk doesn't expect a corresponding open bracket.
