Patch series "try to reduce fragmenting fallbacks", v3.
Last year, Johannes Weiner has reported a regression in page mobility
grouping [1] and while the exact cause was not found, I've come up with
some ways to improve it by reducing the number of allocations falling
back to different migratetype and causing permanent fragmentation.
The series was tested with mmtests stress-highalloc modified to do
GFP_KERNEL order-4 allocations, on 4.9 with "mm, vmscan: fix zone
balance check in prepare_kswapd_sleep" (without that, kcompactd indeed
wasn't woken up) on UMA machine with 4GB memory. There were 5 repeats
of each run, as the extfrag stats are quite volatile (note the stats
below are sums, not averages, as it was less perl hacking for me).
Success rate are the same, already high due to the low allocation order
used, so I'm not including them.
Compaction stats:

patches separately)

Compaction stats are mostly within noise until patch 4, which decreases
the number of compactions, and migrations. Part of that could be due to
more pageblocks marked as unmovable, and async compaction skipping
those. This changes a bit with patch 7, but not so much. Patch 8
increases free scanner stats and migrations, which comes from the
changed termination criteria. Interestingly number of compactions
decreases - probably the fully compacted pageblock satisfies multiple
subsequent allocations, so it amortizes.
Next comes the extfrag tracepoint, where "fragmenting" means that an
allocation had to fallback to a pageblock of another migratetype which
wasn't fully free (which is almost all of the fallbacks). I have
locally added another tracepoint for "Page steal" into
steal_suitable_fallback() which triggers in situations where we are
allowed to do move_freepages_block(). If we decide to also do
set_pageblock_migratetype(), it's "Pages steal with pageblock" with
break down for which allocation migratetype we are stealing and from
which fallback migratetype. The last part "due to counting" comes from
patch 4 and counts the events where the counting of movable pages
allowed us to change pageblock's migratetype, while the number of free
pages alone wouldn't be enough to cross the threshold.

... for reclaimable 49 41 63
What we can see is that "Extfrag fragmenting for unmovable" and "...
placed with movable" drops with almost each patch, which is good as we
are polluting less movable pageblocks with unmovable pages.
The most significant change is patch 4 with movable page counting. On
the other hand it increases "Extfrag fragmenting for movable" by 50%.
"Pages steal" drops though, so these movable allocation fallbacks find
only small free pages and are not allowed to steal whole pageblocks
back. "Pages steal with pageblock" raises, because the patch increases
the chances of pageblock migratetype changes to happen. This affects
all migratetypes.
The summary is that patch 4 is not a clear win wrt these stats, but I
believe that the tradeoff it makes is a good one. There's less
pollution of movable pageblocks by unmovable allocations. There's less
stealing between pageblock, and those that remain have higher chance of
changing migratetype also the pageblock itself, so it should more
faithfully reflect the migratetype of the pages within the pageblock.
The increase of movable allocations falling back to unmovable pageblock
might look dramatic, but those allocations can be migrated by compaction
when needed, and other patches in the series (7-9) improve that aspect.
Patches 7 and 8 continue the trend of reduced unmovable fallbacks and
also reduce the impact on movable fallbacks from patch 4.

This patch (of 8):
While currently there are (mostly by accident) no holes in struct
compact_control (on x86_64), but we are going to add more bool flags, so
place them all together to the end of the structure. While at it, just
order all fields from largest to smallest.

If an error is encountered in mdio_mux_init(), the error path will call
mdiobus_free(). Since mdiobus_register() has been called prior to
mdio_mux_init(), the bus->state will not be MDIOBUS_UNREGISTERED. This
causes a BUG_ON() in mdiobus_free(). To correct this issue, add an
error path for mdio_mux_init() which calls mdiobus_unregister() prior to
mdiobus_free().

The parisc architecture recently reimplemented the memcpy function and
their reimplementation crashed when source and destination overlapped.
The crash happened in the function ide_complete_cmd where memcpy is called
with the same source and destination pointer. According to the C
specification, memcpy behavior is undefined if the source and destination
range overlaps. This patches fixes the undefined behavior.

When users set flow control using ethtool the bits are set properly in the
CPGMAC_SL MACCONTROL register, but the FIFO depth in the respective Port n
Maximum FIFO Blocks (Pn_MAX_BLKS) registers remains set to the minimum size
reset value. When receive flow control is enabled on a port, the port's
associated FIFO block allocation must be adjusted. The port RX allocation
must increase to accommodate the flow control runout. The TRM recommends
numbers of 5 or 6.
Hence, apply required Port FIFO configuration to
Pn_MAX_BLKS.Pn_TX_MAX_BLKS=0xF and Pn_MAX_BLKS.Pn_RX_MAX_BLKS=0x5 during
interface initialization.

For each netns (except init_net), we initialize its null entry
in 3 places:
1) The template itself, as we use kmemdup()
2) Code around dst_init_metrics() in ip6_route_net_init()
3) ip6_route_dev_notify(), which is supposed to initialize it after
loopback registers
Unfortunately the last one still happens in a wrong order because
we expect to initialize net->ipv6.ip6_null_entry->rt6i_idev to
net->loopback_dev's idev, thus we have to do that after we add
idev to loopback. However, this notifier has priority == 0 same as
ipv6_dev_notf, and ipv6_dev_notf is registered after
ip6_route_dev_notifier so it is called actually after
ip6_route_dev_notifier. This is similar to commit 2f460933f58e
("ipv6: initialize route null entry in addrconf_init()") which
fixes init_net.
Fix it by picking a smaller priority for ip6_route_dev_notifier.
Also, we have to release the refcnt accordingly when unregistering
loopback_dev because device exit functions are called before subsys
exit functions.

The zero padding that is added to NTB's does
not zero the memory correctly.
This is because the skb_put modifies the value
of skb_out->len which results in the memset
command not setting any memory to zero as
(ctx->tx_max - skb_out->len) == 0.
I have resolved this by storing the size of
the memory to be zeroed before the skb_put
and using this in the memset call.

The patch fixes two things at once:
1) It checks the env->allow_ptr_leaks and only prints the map address to
the log if we have the privileges to do so, otherwise it just dumps 0
as we would when kptr_restrict is enabled on %pK. Given the latter is
off by default and not every distro sets it, I don't want to rely on
this, hence the 0 by default for unprivileged.
2) Printing of ldimm64 in the verifier log is currently broken in that
we don't print the full immediate, but only the 32 bit part of the
first insn part for ldimm64. Thus, fix this up as well; it's okay to
access, since we verified all ldimm64 earlier already (including just
constants) through replace_map_fd_with_map_ptr().

Vlan devices, like all other software devices, enable
NETIF_F_HW_CSUM feature. However, unlike all the othe other
software devices, vlans will switch to using IP|IPV6_CSUM
features, if the underlying devices uses them. In these situations,
checksum offload features on the vlan device can't be controlled
via ethtool.
This patch makes vlans keep HW_CSUM feature if the underlying
device supports checksum offloading. This makes vlan devices
behave like other software devices, and restores control to the
user.
A side-effect is that some offload settings (typically UFO)
may be enabled on the vlan device while being disabled on the HW.
However, the GSO code will correctly process the packets. This
actually results in slightly better raw throughput.

Congestion control modules that want full control over congestion
control behavior do not want the cwnd modifications controlled by
the sysctl_tcp_slow_start_after_idle code path.
So skip those code paths for CC modules that use the cong_control()
API.
As an example, those cwnd effects are not desired for the BBR congestion
control algorithm.

IPv4 dst could use fi->fib_metrics to store metrics but fib_info
itself is refcnt'ed, so without taking a refcnt fi and
fi->fib_metrics could be freed while dst metrics still points to
it. This triggers use-after-free as reported by Andrey twice.
This patch reverts commit 2860583fe840 ("ipv4: Kill rt->fi") to
restore this reference counting. It is a quick fix for -net and
-stable, for -net-next, as Eric suggested, we can consider doing
reference counting for metrics itself instead of relying on fib_info.
IPv6 is very different, it copies or steals the metrics from mx6_config
in fib6_commit_metrics() so probably doesn't need a refcnt.
Decnet has already done the refcnt'ing, see dn_fib_semantic_match().

Wrong sign of iov_iter_revert() argument. Unfortunately, slipped through
the testing, since most of the time we don't do anything to the iterator
afterwards and potential oops on walking the iter->iov too far backwards
is too infrequent to be easily triggered.
Add a sanity check in iov_iter_revert() to catch bugs like this one;
fortunately, the same braino hadn't happened in other callers, but we'd
better have a warning if such thing crops up.

Since groups 0 and 63 are invalid, we should check for those bits.
Note that the 802.11 spec specifies the *bit* order, but the CPU
doesn't care about bit order since it can't address bits, so it's
always treating BIT(0) as the lowest bit within a byte.

exported to places that it previously wasn't. Now kref.h is GPLv2

Since 2014, you can't successfully build kernels with GNU Make version
3.80. Example errors:
$ git describe
v4.11
$ make --version | head -1
GNU Make 3.80
$ make defconfig
HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep
scripts/Makefile.host:135: *** missing separator. Stop.
make: *** [defconfig] Error 2
$ make ARCH=arm64 help
arch/arm64/Makefile:43: *** unterminated call to function `warning': missing `)'. Stop.
$ make help >/dev/null
./Documentation/Makefile.sphinx:25: Extraneous text after `else' directive
./Documentation/Makefile.sphinx:31: *** only one `else' per conditional. Stop.
make: *** [help] Error 2
The first breakage was introduced by commit c8589d1e9e01 ("kbuild:
handle multi-objs dependency appropriately"). Since then (i.e. v3.18),
GNU Make 3.80 has not been able to compile the kernel, but nobody has
ever complained aboutt (or noticed) it.
Even GNU Make 3.81 is more than 10 years old. It would not hurt to
match the documentation with reality instead of fixing makefiles.

Commit 17a9be317475 ("initramfs: Always do fput() and load modules after
rootfs populate") introduced an error for the
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=y
case, because even though the code looks fine, the compiler really wants
a statement after a label, or you'll get complaints:
init/initramfs.c: In function 'populate_rootfs':

That commit moved the subsequent statements to outside the compound
statement, leaving the label without any associated statements.
