Since commit 080d676d ("aio: allocate kiocbs in batches") iocbs are allocated in a batch during processing of first iocbs. All iocbs in a batch are automatically added to ctx->active_reqs list and accounted in ctx->reqs_active. If one (not the last one) of iocbs submitted by an user fails, further iocbs are not processed, but they are still present in ctx->active_reqs and accounted in ctx->reqs_active. This causes process to stuck in a D state in wait_for_all_aios() on exit since ctx->reqs_active will never go down to zero. Furthermore since kiocb_batch_free() frees iocb without removing it from active_reqs list the list become corrupted which may cause oops. Fix this by removing iocb from ctx->active_reqs and updating ctx->reqs_active in kiocb_batch_free().

Commit 8a25a2fd ("cpu: convert 'cpu' and 'machinecheck' sysdev_class to a regular subsystem") changed how things are dealt with in the MCE subsystem. Some of the things that got broken due to this are CPU hotplug and suspend/hibernate. MCE uses per_cpu allocations of struct device. So, when a CPU goes offline and comes back online, in order to ensure that we start from a clean slate with respect to the MCE subsystem, zero out the entire per_cpu device structure to 0 before using it.

Before commit 56e46742 we have had locking around all printing macros and we could use static buffers for creating key strings and printing them. However, now we do not have that locking and we cannot use static buffers. This commit removes the old DBGKEY() macros and introduces few new helper macros for printing debugging messages plus a key at the end. Thankfully, all the messages are already structures in a way that the key is printed in the end. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com>

Newer nVidia cards with Optimus do not support/use the DSM switching functions. Instead, it require a DSM function to be called prior to bringing a device into D3 state. No other _DSM calls are necessary before/after enabling/disabling a device. Switching between discrete and integrated GPU is not supported by this Optimus _DSM call, therefore return on the switching method.

Andrew explains: - various misc stuff - Most of the rest of MM: memcg, threaded hugepages, others. - cpumask - kexec - kdump - some direct-io performance tweaking - radix-tree optimisations - new selftests code A note on this: often people will develop a new userspace-visible feature and will develop userspace code to exercise/test that feature. Then they merge the patch and the selftest code dies. Sometimes we paste it into the changelog. Sometimes the code gets thrown into Documentation/(!). This saddens me. So this patch creates a bare-bones framework which will henceforth allow me to ask people to include their test apps in the kernel tree so we can keep them alive. Then when people enhance or fix the feature, I can ask them to update the test app too. The infrastruture is terribly trivial at present - let's see how it evolves. - checkpoint/restart feature work. A note on this: this is a project by various mad Russians to perform c/r mainly from userspace, with various oddball helper code added into the kernel where the need is demonstrated. So rather than some large central lump of code, what we have is little bits and pieces popping up in various places which either expose something new or which permit something which is normally kernel-private to be modified. The overall project is an ongoing thing. I've judged that the size and scope of the thing means that we're more likely to be successful with it if we integrate the support into mainline piecemeal rather than allowing it all to develop out-of-tree. However I'm less confident than the developers that it will all eventually work! So what I'm asking them to do is to wrap each piece of new code inside CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE. So if it all eventually comes to tears and the project as a whole fails, it should be a simple matter to go through and delete all trace of it. This lot pretty much wraps up the -rc1 merge for me. * akpm: (96 commits) unlzo: fix input buffer free ramoops: update parameters only after successful init ramoops: fix use of rounddown_pow_of_two() c/r: prctl: add PR_SET_MM codes to set up mm_struct entries c/r: procfs: add start_data, end_data, start_brk members to /proc/$pid/stat v4 c/r: introduce CHECKPOINT_RESTORE symbol selftests: new x86 breakpoints selftest selftests: new very basic kernel selftests directory radix_tree: take radix_tree_path off stack radix_tree: remove radix_tree_indirect_to_ptr() dio: optimize cache misses in the submission path vfs: cache request_queue in struct block_device fs/direct-io.c: calculate fs_count correctly in get_more_blocks() drivers/parport/parport_pc.c: fix warnings panic: don't print redundant backtraces on oops sysctl: add the kernel.ns_last_pid control kdump: add udev events for memory online/offline include/linux/crash_dump.h needs elf.h kdump: fix crash_kexec()/smp_send_stop() race in panic() kdump: crashk_res init check for /sys/kernel/kexec_crash_size ...

Cyrill Gorcunov authored
When we restore a task we need to set up text, data and data heap sizes from userspace to the values a task had at checkpoint time. This patch adds auxilary prctl codes for that. While most of them have a statistical nature (their values are involved into calculation of /proc/<pid>/statm output) the start_brk and brk values are used to compute an allowed size of program data segment expansion. Which means an arbitrary changes of this values might be dangerous operation. So to restrict access the following requirements applied to prctl calls: - The process has to have CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability granted. - For all opcodes except start_brk/brk members an appropriate VMA area must exist and should fit certain VMA flags, such as: - code segment must be executable but not writable; - data segment must not be executable. start_brk/brk values must not intersect with data segment and must not exceed RLIMIT_DATA resource limit. Still the main guard is CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability check. Note the kernel should be compiled with CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE support otherwise these prctl calls will return -EINVAL.

Bring a new kernel selftests directory in tools/testing/selftests. To add a new selftest, create a subdirectory with the sources and a makefile that creates a target named "run_test" then add the subdirectory name to the TARGET var in tools/testing/selftests/Makefile and tools/testing/selftests/run_tests script. This can help centralizing and maintaining any useful selftest that developers usually tend to let rust in peace on some random server.

Down, down in the deepest depths of GFP_NOIO page reclaim, we have shrink_page_list() calling __remove_mapping() calling __delete_from_ swap_cache() or __delete_from_page_cache(). You would not expect those to need much stack, but in fact they call radix_tree_delete(): which declares a 192-byte radix_tree_path array on its stack (to record the node,offsets it visits when descending, in case it needs to ascend to update them). And if any tag is still set [1], that calls radix_tree_tag_clear(), which declares a further such 192-byte radix_tree_path array on the stack. (At least we have interrupts disabled here, so won't then be pushing registers too.) That was probably a good choice when most users were 32-bit (array of half the size), and adding fields to radix_tree_node would have bloated it unnecessarily. But nowadays many are 64-bit, and each radix_tree_node contains a struct rcu_head, which is only used when freeing; whereas the radix_tree_path info is only used for updating the tree (deleting, clearing tags or setting tags if tagged) when a lock must be held, of no interest when accessing the tree locklessly. So add a parent pointer to the radix_tree_node, in union with the rcu_head, and remove all uses of the radix_tree_path. There would be space in that union to save the offset when descending as before (we can argue that a lock must already be held to exclude other users), but recalculating it when ascending is both easy (a constant shift and a constant mask) and uncommon, so it seems better just to do that. Two little optimizations: no need to decrement height when descending, adjusting shift is enough; and once radix_tree_tag_if_tagged() has set tag on a node and its ancestors, it need not ascend from that node again. perf on the radix tree test harness reports radix_tree_insert() as 2% slower (now having to set parent), but radix_tree_delete() 24% faster. Surely that's an exaggeration from rtth's artificially low map shift 3, but forcing it back to 6 still rates radix_tree_delete() 8% faster. [1] Can a pagecache tag (dirty, writeback or towrite) actually still be set at the time of radix_tree_delete()? Perhaps not if the filesystem is well-behaved. But although I've not tracked any stack overflow down to this cause, I have observed a curious case in which a dirty tag is set and left set on tmpfs: page migration's migrate_page_copy() happens to use __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() to set PageDirty on the newpage, and that sets PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY as a side-effect - harmless to a filesystem which doesn't use tags, except for this stack depth issue.

Some investigation of a transaction processing workload showed that a major consumer of cycles in __blockdev_direct_IO is the cache miss while accessing the block size. This is because it has to walk the chain from block_dev to gendisk to queue. The block size is needed early on to check alignment and sizes. It's only done if the check for the inode block size fails. But the costly block device state is unconditionally fetched. - Reorganize the code to only fetch block dev state when actually needed. Then do a prefetch on the block dev early on in the direct IO path. This is worth it, because there is substantial code run before we actually touch the block dev now. - I also added some unlikelies to make it clear the compiler that block device fetch code is not normally executed. This gave a small, but measurable improvement on a large database benchmark (about 0.3%) [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] [sfr@canb.auug.org.au: using prefetch requires including prefetch.h] Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Cc: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

This makes it possible to get from the inode to the request_queue with one less cache miss. Used in followon optimization. The livetime of the pointer is the same as the gendisk. This assumes that the queue will always stay the same in the gendisk while it's visible to block_devices. I think that's safe correct?

In get_more_blocks(), we use dio_count to calcuate fs_count and do some tricky things to increase fs_count if dio_count isn't aligned. But actually it still has some corner cases that can't be coverd. See the following example: dio_write foo -s 1024 -w 4096 (direct write 4096 bytes at offset 1024). The same goes if the offset isn't aligned to fs_blocksize. In this case, the old calculation counts fs_count to be 1, but actually we will write into 2 different blocks (if fs_blocksize=4096). The old code just works, since it will call get_block twice (and may have to allocate and create extents twice for filesystems like ext4). So we'd better call get_block just once with the proper fs_count.
