struct io_comp_batch contains a list head and a completion handler, which
will allow completions to more effciently completed batches of IO.
For now, no functional changes in this patch, we just define the
io_comp_batch structure and add the argument to the file_operations iopoll
handler.

Replace the blk_poll interface that requires the caller to keep a queue
and cookie from the submissions with polling based on the bio.
Polling for the bio itself leads to a few advantages:
- the cookie construction can made entirely private in blk-mq.c
- the caller does not need to remember the request_queue and cookie
separately and thus sidesteps their lifetime issues
- keeping the device and the cookie inside the bio allows to trivially
support polling BIOs remapping by stacking drivers
- a lot of code to propagate the cookie back up the submission path can
be removed entirely.

Convert rotate_reclaimable_page() to folio_rotate_reclaimable(). This
eliminates all five of the calls to compound_head() in this function,
saving 75 bytes at the cost of adding 15 bytes to its one caller,
end_page_writeback(). We also save 36 bytes from pagevec_move_tail_fn()
due to using folios there. Net 96 bytes savings.
Also move its declaration to mm/internal.h as it's only used by filemap.c.

If there are errors during swap read or write, they can easily fill the
log buffer and remove any previous messages that might be useful for
debugging, especially on systems that rely for logging only on the kernel
ring-buffer.
For example, on a systems using zram as swap, we are more likely to see
any page allocation errors preceding the swap write errors if the alerts
are ratelimited.

Patch series "mm: allow mapping accounted kernel pages to userspace", v6.
Currently a non-slab kernel page which has been charged to a memory cgroup
can't be mapped to userspace. The underlying reason is simple: PageKmemcg
flag is defined as a page type (like buddy, offline, etc), so it takes a
bit from a page->mapped counter. Pages with a type set can't be mapped to
userspace.
But in general the kmemcg flag has nothing to do with mapping to
userspace. It only means that the page has been accounted by the page
allocator, so it has to be properly uncharged on release.
Some bpf maps are mapping the vmalloc-based memory to userspace, and their
memory can't be accounted because of this implementation detail.
This patchset removes this limitation by moving the PageKmemcg flag into
one of the free bits of the page->mem_cgroup pointer. Also it formalizes
accesses to the page->mem_cgroup and page->obj_cgroups using new helpers,
adds several checks and removes a couple of obsolete functions. As the
result the code became more robust with fewer open-coded bit tricks.
This patch (of 4):
Currently there are many open-coded reads of the page->mem_cgroup pointer,
as well as a couple of read helpers, which are barely used.
It creates an obstacle on a way to reuse some bits of the pointer for
storing additional bits of information. In fact, we already do this for
slab pages, where the last bit indicates that a pointer has an attached
vector of objcg pointers instead of a regular memcg pointer.
This commits uses 2 existing helpers and introduces a new helper to
converts all read sides to calls of these helpers:
struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg(struct page *page);
struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg_rcu(struct page *page);
struct mem_cgroup *page_memcg_check(struct page *page);
page_memcg_check() is intended to be used in cases when the page can be a
slab page and have a memcg pointer pointing at objcg vector. It does
check the lowest bit, and if set, returns NULL. page_memcg() contains a
VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() check for the page not being a slab page.
To make sure nobody uses a direct access, struct page's
mem_cgroup/obj_cgroups is converted to unsigned long memcg_data.

SWP_FS is used to make swap_{read,write}page() go through the filesystem,
and it's only used for swap files over NFS for now. Otherwise it will
directly submit IO to blockdev according to swapfile extents reported by
filesystems in advance.
As Matthew pointed out [1], SWP_FS naming is somewhat confusing, so let's
rename to SWP_FS_OPS.

Arm's Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) adds some metadata (tags) to
every physical page, when swapping pages out to disk it is necessary to
save these tags, and later restore them when reading the pages back.
Add some hooks along with dummy implementations to enable the
arch code to handle this.
Three new hooks are added to the swap code:
* arch_prepare_to_swap() and
* arch_swap_invalidate_page() / arch_swap_invalidate_area().
One new hook is added to shmem:
* arch_swap_restore()

swap_readpage() does the sync io for one page, the io is not big,
normally, the io can be finished quickly, but it may take long time or
wait forever in case of io failure or discard.
This patch uses blk_io_schedule() instead of io_schedule() to avoid task
hung and crash (when set /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_panic) when the above
exception occurs.
This is similar to the hung task avoidance in submit_bio_wait(),
blk_execute_rq() and __blkdev_direct_IO().

Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.
The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once. For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.
Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.
static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
return (address >> PMD_SHIFT) & (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}
static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}
These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.
For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.
These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.
This patch (of 12):
The linux/mm.h header includes <asm/pgtable.h> to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g. pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc(). So, there is no point to explicitly include <asm/pgtable.h>
in the files that include <linux/mm.h>.
The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:
for f in $(git grep -l "include <linux/mm.h>") ; do
sed -i -e '/include <asm\/pgtable.h>/ d' $f
done

By now, bmap() will either return the physical block number related to
the requested file offset or 0 in case of error or the requested offset
maps into a hole.
This patch makes the needed changes to enable bmap() to proper return
errors, using the return value as an error return, and now, a pointer
must be passed to bmap() to be filled with the mapped physical block.
It will change the behavior of bmap() on return:
- negative value in case of error
- zero on success or map fell into a hole
In case of a hole, the *block will be zero too
Since this is a prep patch, by now, the only error return is -EINVAL if
->bmap doesn't exist.

the annotation in submit_bio() for refault stall doesn't work. It
happens with zram in android, especially swap read path which could
consume CPU cycle for decompress. It is also a problem for zswap which
uses frontswap.
Annotate swap_readpage() to account the synchronous IO overhead to
prevent underreport memory pressure.

The following race is observed due to which a processes faulting on a
swap entry, finds the page neither in swapcache nor swap. This causes
zram to give a zero filled page that gets mapped to the process,
resulting in a user space crash later.
Consider parent and child processes Pa and Pb sharing the same swap slot
with swap_count 2. Swap is on zram with SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO set.
Virtual address 'VA' of Pa and Pb points to the shared swap entry.
Pa Pb
fault on VA fault on VA
do_swap_page do_swap_page
lookup_swap_cache fails lookup_swap_cache fails
Pb scheduled out
swapin_readahead (deletes zram entry)
swap_free (makes swap_count 1)
Pb scheduled in
swap_readpage (swap_count == 1)
Takes SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO path
zram enrty absent
zram gives a zero filled page
Fix this by making sure that swap slot is freed only when swap count
drops down to one.

swap_extent is used to map swap page offset to backing device's block
offset. For a continuous block range, one swap_extent is used and all
these swap_extents are managed in a linked list.
These swap_extents are used by map_swap_entry() during swap's read and
write path. To find out the backing device's block offset for a page
offset, the swap_extent list will be traversed linearly, with
curr_swap_extent being used as a cache to speed up the search.
This works well as long as swap_extents are not huge or when the number
of processes that access swap device are few, but when the swap device
has many extents and there are a number of processes accessing the swap
device concurrently, it can be a problem. On one of our servers, the
disk's remaining size is tight:
$df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
... ...
/dev/nvme0n1p1 1.8T 1.3T 504G 72% /home/t4
When creating a 80G swapfile there, there are as many as 84656 swap
extents. The end result is, kernel spends abou 30% time in
map_swap_entry() and swap throughput is only 70MB/s.
As a comparison, when I used smaller sized swapfile, like 4G whose
swap_extent dropped to 2000, swap throughput is back to 400-500MB/s and
map_swap_entry() is about 3%.
One downside of using rbtree for swap_extent is, 'struct rbtree' takes
24 bytes while 'struct list_head' takes 16 bytes, that's 8 bytes more
for each swap_extent. For a swapfile that has 80k swap_extents, that
means 625KiB more memory consumed.
Test:
Since it's not possible to reboot that server, I can not test this patch
diretly there. Instead, I tested it on another server with NVMe disk.
I created a 20G swapfile on an NVMe backed XFS fs. By default, the
filesystem is quite clean and the created swapfile has only 2 extents.
Testing vanilla and this patch shows no obvious performance difference
when swapfile is not fragmented.
To see the patch's effects, I used some tweaks to manually fragment the
swapfile by breaking the extent at 1M boundary. This made the swapfile
have 20K extents.
nr_task=4

throughput of swap in, in KB/s, higher is better. 2nd map_swap_entry:

nr_task=1 doesn't show any difference, this is due to the curr_swap_extent
can be effectively used to cache the correct swap extent for single task
workload.

swap_readpage() sets waiter = bio->bi_private even if synchronous = F,
this means that the caller can get the spurious wakeup after return.
This can be fatal if blk_wake_io_task() does
set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING) after the caller does
set_special_state(), in the worst case the kernel can crash in
do_task_dead().

0-Day test system reported some OOM regressions for several THP
(Transparent Huge Page) swap test cases. These regressions are bisected
to 6861428921b5 ("block: always define BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256"). In the
commit, BIO_MAX_PAGES is set to 256 even when THP swap is enabled. So the
bio_alloc(gfp_flags, 512) in get_swap_bio() may fail when swapping out
THP. That causes the OOM.
As in the patch description of 6861428921b5 ("block: always define
BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256"), THP swap should use multi-page bvec to write THP
to swap space. So the issue is fixed via doing that in get_swap_bio().
BTW: I remember I have checked the THP swap code when 6861428921b5
("block: always define BIO_MAX_PAGES as 256") was merged, and thought the
THP swap code needn't to be changed. But apparently, I was wrong. I
should have done this at that time.

swap_readpage() wants to do polling to bring in pages if asked to, but
it doesn't mark the bio as being polled. Additionally, the looping
around the blk_poll() check isn't correct - if we get a zero return, we
should call io_schedule(), we can't just assume that the bio has
completed. The regular bio->bi_private check should be used for that.

This mostly reverts commit 849a370016a5 ("block: avoid ordered task
state change for polled IO"). It was wrongly claiming that the ordering
wasn't necessary. The memory barrier _is_ necessary.
If something is truly polling and not going to sleep, it's the whole
state setting that is unnecessary, not the memory barrier. Whenever you
set your state to a sleeping state, you absolutely need the memory
barrier.
Note that sometimes the memory barrier can be elsewhere. For example,
the ordering might be provided by an external lock, or by setting the
process state to sleeping before adding yourself to the wait queue list
that is used for waking up (where the wait queue lock itself will
guarantee that any wakeup will correctly see the sleeping state).
But none of those cases were true here.
NOTE! Some of the polling paths may indeed be able to drop the state
setting entirely, at which point the memory barrier also goes away.
(Also note that this doesn't revert the TASK_RUNNING cases: there is no
race between a wakeup and setting the process state to TASK_RUNNING,
since the end result doesn't depend on ordering).

blk_poll() has always kept spinning until it found an IO. This is
fine for SYNC polling, since we need to find one request we have
pending, but in preparation for ASYNC polling it can be beneficial
to just check if we have any entries available or not.
Existing callers are converted to pass in 'spin == true', to retain
the old behavior.

For the core poll helper, the task state setting don't need to imply any

If we're polling for IO on a device that doesn't use interrupts, then
IO completion loop (and wake of task) is done by submitting task itself.

The SWP_FILE flag serves two purposes: to make swap_{read,write}page() go
through the filesystem, and to make swapoff() call ->swap_deactivate().
For Btrfs, we want the latter but not the former, so split this flag into
two. This makes us always call ->swap_deactivate() if ->swap_activate()
succeeded, not just if it didn't add any swap extents itself.
This also resolves the issue of the very misleading name of SWP_FILE,
which is only used for swap files over NFS.

In the iov_iter struct, separate the iterator type from the iterator
direction and use accessor functions to access them in most places.
Convert a bunch of places to use switch-statements to access them rather
then chains of bitwise-AND statements. This makes it easier to add further
iterator types. Also, this can be more efficient as to implement a switch
of small contiguous integers, the compiler can use ~50% fewer compare
instructions than it has to use bitwise-and instructions.
Further, cease passing the iterator type into the iterator setup function.
The iterator function can set that itself. Only the direction is required.

With fast swap storage, the platforms want to use swap more aggressively
and swap-in is crucial to application latency.
The rw_page() based synchronous devices like zram, pmem and btt are such
fast storage. When I profile swapin performance with zram lz4
decompress test, S/W overhead is more than 70%. Maybe, it would be
bigger in nvdimm.
This patch aims to reduce swap-in latency by skipping swapcache if the
swap device is synchronous device like rw_page based device. It
enhances 45% my swapin test(5G sequential swapin, no readahead, from
2.41sec to 1.64sec).

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the first pull request for 4.14, containing most of the code
changes. It's a quiet series this round, which I think we needed after
the churn of the last few series. This contains:
- Fix for a registration race in loop, from Anton Volkov.
- Overflow complaint fix from Arnd for DAC960.
- Series of drbd changes from the usual suspects.
- Conversion of the stec/skd driver to blk-mq. From Bart.
- A few BFQ improvements/fixes from Paolo.
- CFQ improvement from Ritesh, allowing idling for group idle.
- A few fixes found by Dan's smatch, courtesy of Dan.
- A warning fixup for a race between changing the IO scheduler and
device remova. From David Jeffery.
- A few nbd fixes from Josef.
- Support for cgroup info in blktrace, from Shaohua.
- Also from Shaohua, new features in the null_blk driver to allow it
to actually hold data, among other things.
- Various corner cases and error handling fixes from Weiping Zhang.
- Improvements to the IO stats tracking for blk-mq from me. Can
drastically improve performance for fast devices and/or big
machines.
- Series from Christoph removing bi_bdev as being needed for IO
submission, in preparation for nvme multipathing code.
- Series from Bart, including various cleanups and fixes for switch
fall through case complaints"

To support delay splitting THP (Transparent Huge Page) after swapped
out, we need to enhance swap writing code to support to write a THP as a
whole. This will improve swap write IO performance.
As Ming Lei <ming.lei@redhat.com> pointed out, this should be based on
multipage bvec support, which hasn't been merged yet. So this patch is
only for testing the functionality of the other patches in the series.
And will be reimplemented after multipage bvec support is merged.

This way we don't need a block_device structure to submit I/O. The
block_device has different life time rules from the gendisk and
request_queue and is usually only available when the block device node
is open. Other callers need to explicitly create one (e.g. the lightnvm
passthrough code, or the new nvme multipathing code).
For the actual I/O path all that we need is the gendisk, which exists
once per block device. But given that the block layer also does
partition remapping we additionally need a partition index, which is
used for said remapping in generic_make_request.
Note that all the block drivers generally want request_queue or
sometimes the gendisk, so this removes a layer of indirection all
over the stack.
