__radix_tree_preload() only disables preemption if no error is returned. So we really need to make sure callers always check the return value. idr_preload() contract is to always disable preemption, so we need to add a missing preempt_disable() if an error happened. Similarly, ida_pre_get() only needs to call preempt_enable() in the case no error happened.

This is mostly to keep the number of static checker warnings down so we can spot new bugs instead of them being drowned in noise. This function doesn't return normal kernel error codes but instead the return value is used to display exactly which memory failed. I chose -1 as hopefully that's a helpful thing to print.

The macro is the compile-time analogue of bitmap_from_u64() with the same purpose: convert the 64-bit number to the properly ordered pair of 32-bit parts, suitable for filling the bitmap in 32-bit BE environment. Use it to make test_bitmap_parselist() correct for 32-bit BE ABIs. Tested on BE mips/qemu.

Current implementation of bitmap_parselist() uses a static variable to save local state while setting bits in the bitmap. It is obviously wrong if we assume execution in multiprocessor environment. Fortunately, it's possible to rewrite this portion of code to avoid using the static variable. It is also possible to set bits in the mask per-range with bitmap_set(), not per-bit, as it is implemented now, with set_bit(); which is way faster. The important side effect of this change is that setting bits in this function from now is not per-bit atomic and less memory-ordered. This is because set_bit() guarantees the order of memory accesses, while bitmap_set() does not. I think that it is the advantage of the new approach, because the bitmap_parselist() is intended to initialise bit arrays, and user should protect the whole bitmap during initialisation if needed. So protecting individual bits looks expensive and useless. Also, other range-oriented functions in lib/bitmap.c don't worry much about atomicity. With all that, setting 2k bits in map with the pattern like 0-2047:128/256 becomes ~50 times faster after applying the patch in my testing environment (arm64 hosted on qemu). The second patch of the series adds the test for bitmap_parselist(). It's not intended to cover all tricky cases, just to make sure that I didn't screw up during rework.

Allow interval trees to quickly check for overlaps to avoid unnecesary tree lookups in interval_tree_iter_first(). As of this patch, all interval tree flavors will require using a 'rb_root_cached' such that we can have the leftmost node easily available. While most users will make use of this feature, those with special functions (in addition to the generic insert, delete, search calls) will avoid using the cached option as they can do funky things with insertions -- for example, vma_interval_tree_insert_after().

The only times the nil-parent (root node) condition is true is when the node is the first in the tree, or after fixing rbtree rule #4 and the case 1 rebalancing made the node the root. Such conditions do not apply most of the time: (i) The common case in an rbtree is to have more than a single node, so this is only true for the first rb_insert(). (ii) While there is a chance only one first rotation is needed, cases where the node's uncle is black (cases 2,3) are more common as we can have the following scenarios during the rotation looping: case1 only, case1+1, case2+3, case1+2+3, case3 only, etc. This patch, therefore, adds an unlikely() optimization to this conditional. When profiling with CONFIG_PROFILE_ANNOTATED_BRANCHES, a kernel build shows that the incorrect rate is less than 15%, and for workloads that involve insert mostly trees overtime tend to have less than 2% incorrect rate.

Patch series "rbtree: Cache leftmost node internally", v4. A series to extending rbtrees to internally cache the leftmost node such that we can have fast overlap check optimization for all interval tree users[1]. The benefits of this series are that: (i) Unify users that do internal leftmost node caching. (ii) Optimize all interval tree users. (iii) Convert at least two new users (epoll and procfs) to the new interface. This patch (of 16): Red-black tree semantics imply that nodes with smaller or greater (or equal for duplicates) keys always be to the left and right, respectively. For the kernel this is extremely evident when considering our rb_first() semantics. Enabling lookups for the smallest node in the tree in O(1) can save a good chunk of cycles in not having to walk down the tree each time. To this end there are a few core users that explicitly do this, such as the scheduler and rtmutexes. There is also the desire for interval trees to have this optimization allowing faster overlap checking. This patch introduces a new 'struct rb_root_cached' which is just the root with a cached pointer to the leftmost node. The reason why the regular rb_root was not extended instead of adding a new structure was that this allows the user to have the choice between memory footprint and actual tree performance. The new wrappers on top of the regular rb_root calls are: - rb_first_cached(cached_root) -- which is a fast replacement for rb_first. - rb_insert_color_cached(node, cached_root, new) - rb_erase_cached(node, cached_root) In addition, augmented cached interfaces are also added for basic insertion and deletion operations; which becomes important for the interval tree changes. With the exception of the inserts, which adds a bool for updating the new leftmost, the interfaces are kept the same. To this end, porting rb users to the cached version becomes really trivial, and keeping current rbtree semantics for users that don't care about the optimization requires zero overhead.

Patch series "Define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN or warn for inconsistencies", v3. While working on enabling queued rwlock on SPARC, found this following code in include/asm-generic/qrwlock.h which uses CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN to clear a byte. static inline u8 *__qrwlock_write_byte(struct qrwlock *lock) { return (u8 *)lock + 3 * IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN); } Problem is many of the fixed big endian architectures don't define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN and clears the wrong byte. Define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN for all the fixed big endian architecture to fix it. Also found few more references of this config parameter in drivers/of/base.c drivers/of/fdt.c drivers/tty/serial/earlycon.c drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c Be aware that this may cause regressions if someone has worked-around problems in the above code already.

First, number of CPUs can't be negative number. Second, different signnnedness leads to suboptimal code in the following cases: 1) kmalloc(nr_cpu_ids * sizeof(X)); "int" has to be sign extended to size_t. 2) while (loff_t *pos < nr_cpu_ids) MOVSXD is 1 byte longed than the same MOV. Other cases exist as well. Basically compiler is told that nr_cpu_ids can't be negative which can't be deduced if it is "int".

That's the same convention used by ARM's __memset routines, so rename Alpha's routine to match and add a memset16() wrapper around it. Then convert Alpha's scr_memsetw() to call memset16() instead of memsetw(). Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170720184539.31609-6-willy@infradead.orgSigned-off-by:

Patch series "Multibyte memset variations", v4. A relatively common idiom we're missing is a function to fill an area of memory with a pattern which is larger than a single byte. I first noticed this with a zram patch which wanted to fill a page with an 'unsigned long' value. There turn out to be quite a few places in the kernel which can benefit from using an optimised function rather than a loop; sometimes text size, sometimes speed, and sometimes both. The optimised PowerPC version (not included here) improves performance by about 30% on POWER8 on just the raw memset_l(). Most of the extra lines of code come from the three testcases I added. This patch (of 8): memset16(), memset32() and memset64() are like memset(), but allow the caller to fill the destination with a value larger than a single byte. memset_l() and memset_p() allow the caller to use unsigned long and pointer values respectively.

If there are large numbers of hugepages to iterate while reading /proc/pid/smaps, the page walk never does cond_resched(). On archs without split pmd locks, there can be significant and observable contention on mm->page_table_lock which cause lengthy delays without rescheduling. Always reschedule in smaps_pte_range() if necessary since the pagewalk iteration can be expensive.
