git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio
Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.11 cycle
Core changes:
- Augment fwnode_get_named_gpiod() to configure the GPIO pin
immediately after requesting it like all other APIs do. This is a
treewide change also updating all users.
- Pass a GPIO label down to gpiod_request() from
fwnode_get_named_gpiod(). This makes debugfs and the userspace ABI
correctly reflect the current in-kernel consumer of a pin taken
using this abstraction. This is a treewide change also updating all
users.
- Rename devm_get_gpiod_from_child() to
devm_fwnode_get_gpiod_from_child() to reflect the fact that this
function is operating on a fwnode object. This is a treewide change
also updating all users.
- Make it possible to take multiple GPIOs in a single hog of device
tree hogs.
- The refactorings switching GPIO chips to use the .set_config()
callback using standard pin control properties and providing a
backend into the pin control subsystem that were also merged into
the pin control tree naturally appear here too.
Testing instrumentation:
- A whole slew of cleanups and improvements to the mockup GPIO
driver. We now have an extended userspace test exercising the
subsystem, and we can inject interrupts etc from userspace to fully
test the core GPIO functionality.
New drivers:
- New driver for the Cortina Systems Gemini GPIO controller.
- New driver for the Exar XR17V352/354/358 chips.
- New driver for the ACCES PCI-IDIO-16 PCI GPIO card.
Driver changes:
- RCAR: set the irqchip parent device, add fine-grained runtime PM
support.
- pca953x: support optional RESET control line on the chip.
- DaVinci: cleanups and simplifications. Add support for multiple
instances.
- .set_multiple() and naming of lines on more or less all of the
ISA/PCI GPIO controllers.
- mcp23s08: refactored to use regmap as a first step to further
rewrites and modernizations"

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
"4.11 is going to be a relatively large release for KVM, with a little
over 200 commits and noteworthy changes for most architectures.
ARM:
- GICv3 save/restore
- cache flushing fixes
- working MSI injection for GICv3 ITS
- physical timer emulation
MIPS:
- various improvements under the hood
- support for SMP guests
- a large rewrite of MMU emulation. KVM MIPS can now use MMU
notifiers to support copy-on-write, KSM, idle page tracking,
swapping, ballooning and everything else. KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM is
also supported, so that writes to some memory regions can be
treated as MMIO. The new MMU also paves the way for hardware
virtualization support.
PPC:
- support for POWER9 using the radix-tree MMU for host and guest
- resizable hashed page table
- bugfixes.
s390:
- expose more features to the guest
- more SIMD extensions
- instruction execution protection
- ESOP2
x86:
- improved hashing in the MMU
- faster PageLRU tracking for Intel CPUs without EPT A/D bits
- some refactoring of nested VMX entry/exit code, preparing for live
migration support of nested hypervisors
- expose yet another AVX512 CPUID bit
- host-to-guest PTP support
- refactoring of interrupt injection, with some optimizations thrown
in and some duct tape removed.
- remove lazy FPU handling
- optimizations of user-mode exits
- optimizations of vcpu_is_preempted() for KVM guests

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Add Petr Mladek, Sergey Senozhatsky as printk maintainers, and Steven
Rostedt as the printk reviewer. This idea came up after the
discussion about printk issues at Kernel Summit. It was formulated
and discussed at lkml[1].
- Extend a lock-less NMI per-cpu buffers idea to handle recursive
printk() calls by Sergey Senozhatsky[2]. It is the first step in
sanitizing printk as discussed at Kernel Summit.
The change allows to see messages that would normally get ignored or
would cause a deadlock.
Also it allows to enable lockdep in printk(). This already paid off.
The testing in linux-next helped to discover two old problems that
were hidden before[3][4].
- Remove unused parameter by Sergey Senozhatsky. Clean up after a past
change.

At present, Tying the first_num size to NCHUNKS_ORDER is confusing. the
number of chunks is completely unrelated to the number of buddies.
The patch limits the first_num to actual range of possible buddy indexes.
and that is more reasonable and obvious without functional change.

We had a deprecated_attr_warn() warning for 2 years and now the time has
come and we finally can do the cleanup.
The plan was as follows:
: per-stat sysfs attributes are considered to be deprecated.
: The basic strategy is:
: -- the existing RW nodes will be downgraded to WO nodes (in linux 4.11)
: -- deprecated RO sysfs nodes will eventually be removed (in linux 4.11)
:
: The list of deprecated attributes can be found here:
: Documentation/ABI/obsolete/sysfs-block-zram
:
: Basically, every attribute that has its own read accessible sysfs
: node (e.g. num_reads) *AND* is accessible via one of the stat files
: (zram<id>/stat or zram<id>/io_stat or zram<id>/mm_stat) is considered
: to be deprecated.
The patch also removes `obsolete/sysfs-block-zram', clean ups
`testing/sysfs-block-zram' and tweaks zram.txt files.

Logic on whether we can reap pages from the VMA should match what we

The patch "mm, page_alloc: warn_alloc print nodemask" implicitly sets
the allocation nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed when there is no
effective mempolicy. cpuset_current_mems_allowed is only effective when
cpusets are enabled, which is also printed by warn_alloc(), so setting
the nodemask to cpuset_current_mems_allowed is redundant and prevents
debugging issues where ac->nodemask is not set properly in the page
allocator.
This provides better debugging output since
cpuset_print_current_mems_allowed() is already provided.

Now that __GFP_NOFAIL doesn't override decisions to skip the oom killer
we are left with requests which require to loop inside the allocator
without invoking the oom killer (e.g. GFP_NOFS|__GFP_NOFAIL used by fs
code) and so they might, in very unlikely situations, loop for ever -
e.g. other parallel request could starve them.
This patch tries to limit the likelihood of such a lockup by giving
these __GFP_NOFAIL requests a chance to move on by consuming a small
part of memory reserves. We are using ALLOC_HARDER which should be
enough to prevent from the starvation by regular allocation requests,
yet it shouldn't consume enough from the reserves to disrupt high
priority requests (ALLOC_HIGH).
While we are at it, let's introduce a helper __alloc_pages_cpuset_fallback
which enforces the cpusets but allows to fallback to ignore them if the
first attempt fails. __GFP_NOFAIL requests can be considered important
enough to allow cpuset runaway in order for the system to move on. It
is highly unlikely that any of these will be GFP_USER anyway.

__alloc_pages_may_oom makes sure to skip the OOM killer depending on the
allocation request. This includes lowmem requests, costly high order
requests and others. For a long time __GFP_NOFAIL acted as an override
for all those rules. This is not documented and it can be quite
surprising as well. E.g. GFP_NOFS requests are not invoking the OOM
killer but GFP_NOFS|__GFP_NOFAIL does so if we try to convert some of
the existing open coded loops around allocator to nofail request (and we
have done that in the past) then such a change would have a non trivial
side effect which is far from obvious. Note that the primary motivation
for skipping the OOM killer is to prevent from pre-mature invocation.
The exception has been added by commit 82553a937f12 ("oom: invoke oom
killer for __GFP_NOFAIL"). The changelog points out that the oom killer
has to be invoked otherwise the request would be looping for ever. But
this argument is rather weak because the OOM killer doesn't really
guarantee a forward progress for those exceptional cases:
- it will hardly help to form costly order which in turn can result in
the system panic because of no oom killable task in the end - I believe
we certainly do not want to put the system down just because there is a
nasty driver asking for order-9 page with GFP_NOFAIL not realizing all
the consequences. It is much better this request would loop for ever
than the massive system disruption
- lowmem is also highly unlikely to be freed during OOM killer
- GFP_NOFS request could trigger while there is still a lot of memory
pinned by filesystems.
This patch simply removes the __GFP_NOFAIL special case in order to have a
more clear semantic without surprising side effects.

Tetsuo Handa has pointed out that commit 0a0337e0d1d1 ("mm, oom: rework
oom detection") has subtly changed semantic for costly high order
requests with __GFP_NOFAIL and withtout __GFP_REPEAT and those can fail
right now. My code inspection didn't reveal any such users in the tree
but it is true that this might lead to unexpected allocation failures
and subsequent OOPs.
__alloc_pages_slowpath wrt. GFP_NOFAIL is hard to follow currently.
There are few special cases but we are lacking a catch all place to be
sure we will not miss any case where the non failing allocation might
fail. This patch reorganizes the code a bit and puts all those special
cases under nopage label which is the generic go-to-fail path. Non
failing allocations are retried or those that cannot retry like
non-sleeping allocation go to the failure point directly. This should
make the code flow much easier to follow and make it less error prone
for future changes.
While we are there we have to move the stall check up to catch
potentially looping non-failing allocations.

show_mem() allows to filter out node specific data which is irrelevant
to the allocation request via SHOW_MEM_FILTER_NODES. The filtering is
done in skip_free_areas_node which skips all nodes which are not in the
mems_allowed of the current process. This works most of the time as
expected because the nodemask shouldn't be outside of the allocating
task but there are some exceptions. E.g. memory hotplug might want to
request allocations from outside of the allowed nodes (see
new_node_page).
Get rid of this hardcoded behavior and push the allocation mask down the
show_mem path and use it instead of cpuset_current_mems_allowed. NULL
nodemask is interpreted as cpuset_current_mems_allowed.

We have a generic implementation for quite some time already. If there
is any arch specific information to be printed then we should add a
callback called from the generic code rather than duplicate the whole
show_mem.
The current code has resulted in the code duplication and the output
divergence which is both confusing and adds maintainance costs.
Let's just get rid of this mess.

warn_alloc is currently used for to report an allocation failure or an
allocation stall. We print some details of the allocation request like
the gfp mask and the request order. We do not print the allocation
nodemask which is important when debugging the reason for the allocation
failure as well. We alreaddy print the nodemask in the OOM report.
Add nodemask to warn_alloc and print it in warn_alloc as well.

Patch series "show_mem updates", v2.
This is a mixture of one bug fix (patch 1), an enhancement (patch 2) and
cleanups (the rest of the series). First two patches should be really
straightforward. Patch 3 removes some arch specific show_mem
implementations because I think they are quite outdated and do not
really serve any useful purpose anymore. I think we should really
strive to have a consistent show_mem output regardless of the
architecture. If some architecture is really special and wants to dump
something additional we should do that via an arch specific hook.
The last patch adds nodemask parameter so that we do not rely on the
hardcoded mems_allowed of the current task when doing the node
filtering. I consider this more a cleanup than a fix because basically
all users use a nodemask which is a subset of mems_allowed. There is
only one call path in the memory hotplug which doesn't comply with this
but that is hardly something to worry about.
This patch (of 4):
Commit 599d0c954f91 ("mm, vmscan: move LRU lists to node") has added per
numa node statistics to show_mem but it forgot to add
skip_free_areas_node to filter out nodes which are outside of the
allocating task numa policy. Add this check to not pollute the output
with the pointless information.

get_scan_count() considers the whole node LRU size when
- doing SCAN_FILE due to many page cache inactive pages
- calculating the number of pages to scan
In both cases this might lead to unexpected behavior especially on 32b
systems where we can expect lowmem memory pressure very often.
A large highmem zone can easily distort SCAN_FILE heuristic because
there might be only few file pages from the eligible zones on the node
lru and we would still enforce file lru scanning which can lead to
trashing while we could still scan anonymous pages.
The later use of lruvec_lru_size can be problematic as well. Especially
when there are not many pages from the eligible zones. We would have to
skip over many pages to find anything to reclaim but shrink_node_memcg
would only reduce the remaining number to scan by SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX at
maximum. Therefore we can end up going over a large LRU many times
without actually having chance to reclaim much if anything at all. The
closer we are out of memory on lowmem zone the worse the problem will
be.
Fix this by filtering out all the ineligible zones when calculating the
lru size for both paths and consider only sc->reclaim_idx zones.
The patch would need to be tweaked a bit to apply to 4.10 and older but
I will do that as soon as it hits the Linus tree in the next merge
window.

lruvec_lru_size returns the full size of the LRU list while we sometimes
need a value reduced only to eligible zones (e.g. for lowmem requests).
inactive_list_is_low is one such user. Later patches will add more of
them. Add a new parameter to lruvec_lru_size and allow it filter out
zones which are not eligible for the given context.

PGDEACTIVATE represents the number of pages moved from the active list
to the inactive list. At least this sounds like the original motivation
of the counter. move_active_pages_to_lru, however, counts pages which
got freed in the mean time as deactivated as well. This is a very rare
event and counting them as deactivation in itself is not harmful but it
makes the code more convoluted than necessary - we have to count both
all pages and those which are freed which is a bit confusing.
After this patch the PGDEACTIVATE should have a slightly more clear
semantic and only count those pages which are moved from the active to
the inactive list which is a plus.

To make the code clearer, use rb_entry() instead of container_of() to
deal with rbtree.

There is no thp defrag option that currently allows MADV_HUGEPAGE
regions to do direct compaction and reclaim while all other thp
allocations simply trigger kswapd and kcompactd in the background and
fail immediately.
The "defer" setting simply triggers background reclaim and compaction
for all regions, regardless of MADV_HUGEPAGE, which makes it unusable
for our userspace where MADV_HUGEPAGE is being used to indicate the
application is willing to wait for work for thp memory to be available.
The "madvise" setting will do direct compaction and reclaim for these
MADV_HUGEPAGE regions, but does not trigger kswapd and kcompactd in the
background for anybody else.
For reasonable usage, there needs to be a mesh between the two options.
This patch introduces a fifth mode, "defer+madvise", that will do direct
reclaim and compaction for MADV_HUGEPAGE regions and trigger background
reclaim and compaction for everybody else so that hugepages may be
available in the near future.
A proposal to allow direct reclaim and compaction for MADV_HUGEPAGE
regions as part of the "defer" mode, making it a very powerful setting
and avoids breaking userspace, was offered:
http://marc.info/?t=148236612700003
This additional mode is a compromise.
A second proposal to allow both "defer" and "madvise" to be selected at
the same time was also offered:
http://marc.info/?t=148357345300001.
This is possible, but there was a concern that it might break existing
userspaces the parse the output of the defrag mode, so the fifth option
was introduced instead.
This patch also cleans up the helper function for storing to "enabled"
and "defrag" since the former supports three modes while the latter
supports five and triple_flag_store() was getting unnecessarily messy.

Because during swap off, a swap entry may have swap_map[] ==
SWAP_HAS_CACHE (for example, just allocated). If we return NULL in
__read_swap_cache_async(), the swap off will abort. So when swap slot
cache is disabled, (for swap off), we will wait for page to be put into
swap cache in such race condition. This should not be a problem for swap
slot cache, because swap slot cache should be drained after clearing
swap_slot_cache_enabled.

We add per cpu caches for swap slots that can be allocated and freed
quickly without the need to touch the swap info lock.
Two separate caches are maintained for swap slots allocated and swap
slots returned. This is to allow the swap slots to be returned to the
global pool in a batch so they will have a chance to be coaelesced with
other slots in a cluster. We do not reuse the slots that are returned
right away, as it may increase fragmentation of the slots.
The swap allocation cache is protected by a mutex as we may sleep when
searching for empty slots in cache. The swap free cache is protected by
a spin lock as we cannot sleep in the free path.
We refill the swap slots cache when we run out of slots, and we disable
the swap slots cache and drain the slots if the global number of slots
fall below a low watermark threshold. We re-enable the cache agian when
the slots available are above a high watermark.

Add new functions that free unused swap slots in batches without the
need to reacquire swap info lock. This improves scalability and reduce
lock contention.
